Guide Me If You Dare-Chapter 206: IT’S SHOWTIME

YUNO had once again met some of Ki Gayoon’s elite team members.

Baekho.

Kang Dabin.

Yu Minju (in the form of a pink turtle plushie that Kang Dabin was hugging).

Lee Woonhak.

The Gu Twins are not present.

But there were people there who didn’t belong to Ki Gayoon’s official team.

Lucca (the ’Golden Angel’ and Kang Dabin’s lover/Exclusive Guide).

Yang Youngjae (the former Top 5 Esper who had somehow become Ki Gayoon’s sparring partner).

"I’ll only be taking Baekho with me since I hate dealing with everything else aside from the fight," Ki Gayoon said as if he was already tired. "The rest of you will stay here and make sure no bastards will try to kidnap your madam."

Aigoo.

Yuno wanted to cover his (probably blushing) face with his hands, but that would only make him look more embarrassed.

Hence, he kept a poker face while Ki Gayoon continued his spiel.

"I’ll be hiding Noh Yuno in a safe place," Ki Gayoon said firmly. "But I want you all to make sure that this house will also be safe."

Everyone answered at the same time: "Yes, Boss!"

Ki Gayoon then waved his hand. "Go to your stations now."

"Thank you, everyone," Yuno said in a hurry while everyone was leaving the room one by one. "Fighting!"

Everyone just bowed to Yuno politely before disappearing from his sight.

At least, I was able to cheer them on before they left.

So, now, only Yuno and Ki Gayoon were left in their shared bedroom.

"I’m going ahead, Yuno-ya," Ki Gayoon said, gently grabbing Yuno by the shoulders. "I’ll be back before you know it."

"Hyung, it’s good to be confident, but don’t underestimate Esper Ryu Sungbin-ssi," Yuno said, putting his hands on Ki Gayoon’s waist just because he felt like doing so. "Destroy him slowly but surely."

"I’ll do what I want."

"Aigoo. I won’t go anywhere, so take your time proving to the entire world that you’re South Korea’s number one Esper."

"Yuno-ya, did you really think I didn’t know you were hiding something from me?"

"Hyung, just because we’re together doesn’t mean I’m obliged to tell you everything. I don’t force you to tell me every little detail of your life."

"Yeah, keep talking."

Yuno just shut his mouth when he realized that the more he yapped, the more guilty he sounded.

And Gayoon Hyung knows that.

Tsk.

I’m already busted.

"I don’t care what you do behind my back as long as you’re here once I come home," Ki Gayoon said sternly, and then he gathered Yuno in his arms. It was funny how cold he sounded when he "threatened" Yuno earlier, but his embrace was warm and tight. "As I said earlier, don’t you dare leave me, Noh Yuno. If you think you already know what a red flag looks like from the books you’ve read, then think again. I’ll become the worst "male lead" you’ll ever meet in your life if you leave me."

"Aigoo. No need for threats, Ahjuhyung. I won’t let you turn into a black flag," Yuno said, teasingly calling Ki Gayoon ’Ahjuhyung’ before wrapping his arms around his lover’s waist. "I’ll be waiting for you, Hyung."

"YOU DIDN’T bring your little Guide with you?"

"I’m the only one allowed to call Noh Yuno ’little,’" Ki Gayoon said bluntly, keeping his stoic face while facing Ryu Sungbin. "You also didn’t bring your Guide with you."

"Well, Bambi is the face of the National Guide Bureau," Ryu Sungbin said calmly. "He’s busy."

Haaah.

Why do I need to make a small talk with that bastard?

It was such a shame that Gayoon had to share the lounge area with Ryu Sungbin.

Of course, it wasn’t the norm.

The two of them should have different waiting rooms.

But the organizers made a poor excuse saying there were Awakened People who trespassed the arena, so it was better to put Ryu Sungbin and I in one room to keep us safe.

Haaah.

As if Ryu Sungbin and I need protection.

"Bambi must be busy entertaining the reporters."

Ah, this one isn’t done talking yet.

"The reporters?" Gayoon asked lazily. He didn’t feel like talking to Ryu Sungbin. But he figured this bastard might have a slip of the tongue soon, so he humored him. "Why would the Bureau have to entertain them?"

"Gayoon-ah, the government will earn a lot of money from the live broadcast of our fight. Of course, we have to treat them well. We’re not only catering to our local reporters. This time, we’re also taking good care of foreign reporters who flew to South Korea for our fight."

"It sounds like the Bureau has something to announce to the world."

"Ah, you can be quick-witted sometimes, Gayoon-ah."

Tsk.

So, that was it.

Bambi has something to announce to the world?

Gayoon didn’t want to admit it, but he was kind of nervous now.

I swear to god that if it’s about Noh Yuno...

"Calm down, Gayoon-san," Ryu Sungbin said, laughing softly while standing up. "Focus on our fight, will you?"

"You don’t have to remind me," Gayoon said, standing up to face Ryu Sungbin properly. "I’ll make you pay for failing to protect the kids, Hyung."

***

YUNO looked like he was about to watch a movie and not a life-and-death fight between Ki Gayoon and Ryu Sungbin.

Right now, he was in the mansion inside Beom-seok— the dungeon.

To be precise, he was sitting on the sofa while watching the live broadcast on the giant television in the living room.

It’s a mystery how there’s electricity and internet connection here.

Anyway, Yuno was wearing pajamas while hugging a bucket of popcorn. There were also several cans of soda on the table next to him.

Oh, it’s finally starting.

Yuno was excited when he finally saw Ki Gayoon and Ryu Sungbin facing off each other on the stage while the "emcee" introduced the two Espers excitedly.

However, the display suddenly disappeared and a loud static noise was heard.

It was only for a moment.

But when the signal returned, the live broadcast suddenly changed.

Instead of Ki Gayoon and Ryu Sungbin, Bambi’s pretty face appeared on the screen.

What the hell?

<"I apologize for interrupting the live broadcast of Esper Ryu Sungbin-nim and Esper Ryu Ki Gayoon-nim’s fight. However, as the representative of the National Guide Bureau, I have something to announce.">

Yuno dropped the bucket of popcorn in his hands when his picture suddenly appeared on the screen beside Bambi’s face.

Why is my picture there?

<"The National Guide Bureau is on the hunt to find Guide Noh Yuno-ssi, a criminal E-Class Guide who caused the death of the late Guide Choi Kangmin-ssi.">

Yuno almost choked on his popcorn. "Excuse me?!"
