EFME Ch 3

In the small, white ecf9cece32 room, Sunyul curled up. A small machine attached to 06db424f0e the ceiling blinked a red 1c31cf8f2e light, staring at him.d2c5184fe80e7d85

It was a CCTV. Sunyul knew that even though 64f8a28d71 no one was in the b7bce8581d room right now, someone somewhere 45e74b0474 was watching him through it.a8cdac3a0ea1aabd

How he knew, even Sunyul didn’t know. There were many blank spaces in Sunyul’s memory. There were many instances where he naturally knew what something was, yet couldn’t recall anything related to it.cb641dd34d27f12b

Sunyul bit his lip, 94e9aa4c54 feeling a little anxious.4a5c275fd64e19e2

Sunyul wasn’t relieved that the experiments had stopped. He clearly remembered the head researcher’s furious face before entering this room.417e2c1aa2d2fc66

After some time had passed,695ba5dca8d64c41

At the sound 22d092c9f5 of the door d38fab0d1c opening, Sunyul was 7ad1a13482 startled and sat 18cc43713a up. The person who 95ce33e152 entered was an 6c55ff8edc ability user whose 50eab76b5b face he had 3fa2c9711a seen a few 9f8f6d7c16 times before.33f47653e9e09948

The ability user closed the 1b1f1075db door and left, and Sunyul, 3f929da4c6 glancing at the CCTV, went af02abae05 to the blind spot as 7e91964748 much as possible and changed 9670ff6f67 his clothes.90b31cfd4b65372b

Thinking about the time he faced the monster sent shivers down his spine. He was glad the monster had suddenly disappeared. If it hadn’t, he would have been bitten for sure.b8f932942d78f369

However, it seemed like the monster’s disappearance wasn’t intentional, as there seemed to be some unknown commotion outside. The sounds from outside were muffled inside the training ground, so he couldn’t tell exactly what had happened.1e82cc760191cc93

He hoped this outing wouldn’t involve facing a monster. Not that other things were good, but being thrown in a place alone with a monster like that… was truly terrifying.9b8aafbc4923aa51

The monster was scary, 61980a065d but what was scarier f8f3547619 was their indifferent judgment, 29d0da0b27 casually leaving him alone e3d16b1232 with a monster. It truly felt 2ec9b2af94 like they treated 51188c529d him as an 714f04379c item.921d1fcc5f0c841f

He wanted to believe that, but even Sunyul couldn’t be sure. Because Sunyul didn’t remember anything. He just wished he wasn’t something like an item.407a8d924fd6c1c9

Filled with fear, 1a8702fb94 Sunyul was led b6b7aa9d29 not to the e7152655ef familiar research lab, 6367c5a319 but to a 590e8d3c41 neat room on adb7e8d9d4 the second floor.

Seeing him again, 2c1f67f2c7 he seemed even 31231374a2 more intimidating. He felt scarier 3599c80f33 than the head 2c4a4c7769 researcher. He had an ef6b0668fa air of someone 953d03dfb2 who was used 1abccaf292 to being in c30f771000 a position of 4e37e794a4 authority over others.894f6f8cdba306eb

Even though his presence made it difficult to meet his eyes, Sunyul’s gaze was drawn to the man’s well-defined face.08d9e27b1d36e3a3

Sunyul, who had difficulty discerning which of two moderately attractive people was more handsome, couldn’t mistake this overwhelming handsomeness. If humanity were lined up in order of appearance, this man would surely be standing far ahead of countless others.6f75b45d25b5dbe8

“Sit.”1d531313d3f7012f

At the head researcher’s command, 4a7e95c89e Sunyul only blinked. Then, the ability user 40f74ca285 pulled out a chair 67ea8ca7c8 for him. As Sunyul sat down, the 6f821c39df head researcher stood up and 070338ce14 approached him.9ba89bf084aeac40

The head researcher opened 14d58aa415 a box on the 060947e7c0 table. Inside was a round c93b597ec0 patch, about 2 cm 00e9e54dae in diameter. The head researcher picked it 9ffbdf9948 up and attached it to 65acace064 the back of Sunyul’s neck. The patch stuck 1c712cbf59 firmly, as if 8a246fe948 it were a e454ca42ee part of Sunyul.39fec562c411c818

It was an item that automatically activated when the subject to which it was attached attacked a target recognized as human. The powerful electric current flowing from the patch would almost incapacitate I-21. He wouldn’t die, thanks to his regenerative abilities.8bd4fe51f3282c2f

Muyoung, who was about to say something more, closed his mouth when he saw Sunyul reach up to touch his neck, then lower his hand. He didn’t want to unnecessarily agitate Sunyul, who was visibly anxious after hearing the head researcher’s words.8fa434c3e42c36d2
