Guide Me If You Dare-Chapter 140: IT’S A WRAP

"YOU’RE going to pay for everything you destroyed here, Gayoon-ah."

Ki Gayoon didn’t really care about that since he could afford to pay for the damages.

He fought the Chinese Espers on the rooftop of the Esper Association HQ.

Needless to say, the entire place was wrecked.

Lee Sarang and Jin Sooin— both known for creating sturdy shields— created barriers to make sure that the rooftop wouldn’t collapse.

Hence, we don’t have to evacuate people.

But Gayoon was just a bit annoyed that his suit got a bit dirty, and he got a few cuts on his body. It couldn’t be helped since he fought one S-Class Esper and two A-Class Espers at the same time.

At least, I didn’t let them cut my face.

"Let’s end this here," the leader, the S-Class Esper who didn’t fight, said in a grim tone. "We admit our loss."

If Gayoon was still the old blood-thirsty Gayoon from a year ago, he would have still continued the fight even though the enemies had already given up.

But not this time.

"Alright," Gayoon said. Ah, he was too lazy to remember the limited Mandarin that he knew, so he switched back to using his native language. "I know you want to punish the serial killer yourself, but we’ll do it. I’m sorry for your loss."

It seemed like the Chinese Espers understood him because they looked shocked when they heard Gayoon express his sympathy.

After all, most people knew that he hated Guides.

Well, that’s all in the past.

Gayoon got distracted when his phone rang. When he saw that the call was coming from Noh Yuno, he immediately turned to Ryu Sungbin. "Our job is done here, right?"

"Yes, you may go," Ryu Sungbin said, nodding. "I’ll take care of the rest."

Gayoon just nodded, and then he left the rooftop.

His phone already stopped ringing when he reached the emergency staircase.

He probably thinks I’m busy.

Gayoon immediately called Noh Yuno while leaning against the wall.

He then pulled out a cinnamon stick from his Inventory and put it in his mouth. Every time he felt the urge to smoke, he would eat a cinnamon stick to suppress it.

<"Hyung, are you done?">

Gayoon smiled when he heard the sleepiness in Noh Yuno’s voice.

He could already picture his boyfriend lying on the bed while rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand.

Fuck.

That’s so cute and sexy of him.

<"Hyung?">

"Yeah, I’m done with my work," Gayoon said, forcing himself to stop thinking about Noh Yuno in a sexy pose. He wouldn’t want to have an erection right then and there. "I thought you were going to work all night? You already sound sleepy."

<"Hyung, it’s already six in the morning.">

Ah.

Gayoon didn’t notice the time since he was busy fighting the Chinese Espers.

<"You’re not hurt, Hyung?">

"I’m not," Gayoon assured his boyfriend. "I’m coming home. But don’t wait for me. If you feel sleepy, then sleep already."

<"Mm...">

Pfft.

He fell asleep already.

Gayoon smiled while shaking his head. "I can’t wait to come home to you, my little Babe Princess."

***

HOT.

Yuno woke up as a ’small spoon.’

Ki Gayoon was cuddling him from behind, his face buried in his neck.

Hyung is heavy.

"Where’s my good morning kiss?" Ki Gayoon said in a sleepy voice, and then he placed a soft kiss on Yuno’s nape. "You owe me a good night kiss, too."

"How greedy," Yuno complained, his voice as sleepy as his boyfriend’s. "What time did you return, Hyung?"

"Around 7AM?"

Yuno checked the digital clock on the bedside table. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

It was only 8AM.

"Then you should sleep more, Hyung."

Yuno tried to get up, but Ki Gayoon just pulled him closer to his body.

"Where are you going?"

"You need to sleep, Hyung."

"I’ll sleep better if you’re next to me."

Aigoo.

"Are you not going to ask me what happened?"

"Hyung, how could you sleep if we keep talking?"

"Nah, I’m no longer sleepy," Ki Gayoon said, laughing softly. "We decided to negotiate with the Japanese Esper that the prince bastard led here. But don’t worry, Yuno-ya. Moon Noa will make sure that the prince bastard, and Japan as a whole, will protect your identity as the informant. We will share the information that we have against the E-Class Guides that we fought on the condition that you’ll be protected."

"I see," Yuno said. "Well, that’s the plan. I did similar to that when the Guides had a meeting last time."

"Hmm? This is the first time I’ve heard of this."

Oh, right.

"Team Leader Bambi-ssi wanted me to share more information about my "siblings,"" Yuno said. "But I refused. I told him the government, the Bureau, and the Association needed to ensure my safety first. A few years ago, during Sajangnim’s grandfather’s reign, he ordered the death of all E-Class Guides. If Sajangnim and the others didn’t overthrow him, I would have been killed along with my fellow "failures." So, this time, I’ll make sure that genocide won’t be an option."

"Good job," Ki Gayoon said, gently patting Yuno’s stomach. "Don’t worry. I’ll make the Esper Association more powerful than the government and the National Guide Bureau soon. I’ll take over the country if that’s what it takes to protect you."

Aww.

Yuno was touched because he knew that wasn’t an empty promise.

Gayoon Hyung can do anything he puts his mind to.

"I’m glad my boyfriend is the strongest Esper in South Korea," Yuno said sleepily, closing his eyes when drowsiness pulled him in. "Hyung, if it turns out that there are other good E-Class Guides out there, will you protect them for me?"

"Yuno-ya, you don’t have to ask," Ki Gayoon said, placing a soft kiss on Yuno’s nape. "You just have to tell me what to do, and your wish is my command."

<"BREAKING NEWS: Guide Choi Kangmin had fallen victim to a hate attack against Guides...">

Yuno flinched while watching the news about Choi Kangmin’s death.

The video shown on TV was a video of Choi Kangmin’s parents leading the funeral process of the fallen Guide.

So, they decided to make it a hate crime instead of a serial killing?

<"The culprit is an A-Class Esper who has already been caught by the Top 5 Espers.">

Yuno wouldn’t say he was surprised that the government lied to its people.

If we reveal that the culprit is an E-Class Guide, the world will be turned upside down. Most Guides in most countries are already oppressed. If people find out that there are Guides who kill their fellow Guides, I can’t even imagine the turmoil it will cause.

"Yuno-ya, are you ready?"

"Yes, Hyung," Yuno said, turning off the TV before getting up. "Are you alright? You only got three hours of sleep."

"And so did you."

"Well, I’m used to this."

"And so am I," Ki Gayoon said, and then he fixed Yuno’s tie. "We really don’t need to be there, you know? Choi Kangmin’s fans already hate us because we kicked them out of their spot. Now that their idol is dead, they’re lashing out at us to relieve their pain."

"How did you know that, Hyung?"

"I have a PR Team. They told us not to go online in the meantime."

The backlash might be harsh if Ki Gayoon’s PR Team warned them not to browse the internet.

"So, don’t go online for now."

"Okay, Hyung."

"I already asked my PR Team to take care of it," Ki Gayoon assured him. "Don’t worry. They’ll get rid of all the stupid articles targeting you. I also asked them to collect data on users who crossed the line with their hate comments. Then we’ll sue them later."

"Okay, Hyung. I trust you and the power of your money."

"I can also kill those trolls if you want—"

"Murder is bad, Hyung."

"Okay, I’ll keep that in mind."

Yuno raised an eyebrow when he noticed that Ki Gayoon couldn’t take his eyes off him. "Hyung, I know this is the first time you saw me in a black funeral suit. But you’re staring too much."

Yes, both Yuno and Ki Gayoon were wearing black funeral suits.

A black suit was already a uniform for Ki Gayoon.

I mean, Hyung is still handsome and sexy in a black suit— but I’m already used to seeing him in that getup.

However, that might not be the same for Ki Gayoon.

I just wear a T-shirt or a hoodie most of the time, so Hyung is probably amused to see me wearing the same outfit as him.

"You look good in a black suit, punk."

"Do I look like a gangster now, Hyung?"

Ki Gayoon shook his head, grabbing Yuno’s waist. "You look like the future wife of a gang’s boss."

"Hyung, you should really stop with that joke," Yuno complained. "Baekho Hyung-nim already calls me ’Madam.’"

"Does he now?"

"Why do you look happy?"

"It’s about time to introduce you to my guild members officially, Yuno-ya," Ki Gayoon said, and then he tilted his head to one side. "Ah. Should it be ’Madam Yuno’ from now on?"

Yuno’s face turned red as he playfully hit Ki Gayoon’s chest. "Stop teasing me, Hyung!"

Of course, Yuno should have known Ki Gayoon wasn’t joking— the next thing he knew, he had all the members of the Beom-seok Guild’s elite team bowing towards him...

... while calling him ’Madam.’

Aigoo.
