TZLUP Chapter 30
Episode 30 “Eat first, Huikyung.” “I’m not hungry.” “Then I’ll wait too.” Jaekani’s firm reply came as he propped his chin on his knees, his gaze fixed on the golden-brown fish grilling over the fire and the corn roasting beneath it. Yet, stubbornly, he refused to eat. His silent hunger strike left Huikyung exasperated. “Fine, I’ll eat, okay?” Letting out a resigned sigh, Huikyung set the half-repaired radio aside. He had been struggling with it for an entire day…-

TZLUP Chapter 29
Episode 29 Jaekani snatched the radio like an eagle diving for prey, exhaling sharply. Taken aback by how easily it had been wrested from him, Huikyung was further startled when the boy looked ready to stomp it to pieces. Reacting quickly, Huikyung scooped Jaekani up into his arms. “What’s with you?” “It’s military gear, Huikyung!” “And?” Dangling like an agitated cat in his arms, Jaekani shouted, “The military… they take people away!” Soldiers took Espers. You’re an…-

TZLUP Chapter 28
Episode 28 Huikyung was not the type of person to utter an easy lie, even if it meant enduring criticism. However, despite the faint trust Jaekani harbored for him, the boy's heart began pounding wildly, to the point where he could feel each beat resounding in his chest. His arms trembled uncontrollably, and a numbing ache set in. How much longer? How much more? The ground vibrated again, a tremor so strong it seemed to shake the earth itself. Through it, Jaekani sensed Huikyung's…-

TZLUP Chapter 27
Chapter 27 "Come closer." Huikyung speculated that Jaekani's frequent questions were driven more by anxiety than genuine curiosity. Deciding to offer the boy the attention he seemed to need, Huikyung wondered if holding his hand as they walked might help distract him. But whatever Jaekani interpreted from those words, his face grew tense as he approached. Huikyung found himself reflected in Jaekani's blue eyes. As the distance between them diminished, the sight of himself looming large in…-

TZLUP Chapter 26
Chapter 26 ‘A little lord, aren’t you?’ Despite his internal grumbling, Huikyung moved forward with ease, pushing through the current as they headed deeper into the river. The water rose until it reached Huikyung’s shoulders, an impressive depth considering his towering height. The temperature dropped sharply, making Jaekani tighten his grip around Huikyung’s neck and let out a small gasp of amazement. Through the crystal-clear water, rocks, pebbles, and fish were all visible. Staring…-

TZLUP Chapter 25
Chapter 25 “I can’t leave you like this. Let’s go wash up.” With that, Huikyung stood up, hoisting Jaekani effortlessly into his arms as if he were carrying a basket. Dangling like luggage, Jaekani tilted his head in confusion. “Where to?” “I heard water earlier.” Huikyung recalled the faint sound of water he’d noticed while catching the rabbit. He wasn’t entirely sure of its location, but with his sharp hearing, he was confident he could track it down. “Let’s go.…-

TZLUP Chapter 24
Chapter 24 "What do you even take me for?" With that, Huikyung lightly tapped Jaekani's chin with his index finger. The boy, his brow furrowed in irritation, had his attention drawn to Huikyung's broad back. His thin shirt did little to conceal the contours of his muscles, their shadows accentuated by the sunlight. Watching him, Jaekani was reminded of how starkly different Huikyung was from himself—a complete adult, distant and unreachable. This journey, after all, was entirely at Huikyung's…-

TZLUP Chapter 23
Chapter 23 “Was it revenge?” Huikyung let out a small sigh, his gaze carrying the weariness of someone confronting a stubborn child. “The belief that eating Esper flesh grants abilities comes from the hallucinations it causes,” he explained. Jaekani struggled to lift his heavy eyelids. “Those abilities aren’t real; the hallucinations are meaningless. But the addiction is very real. Eventually, they can only survive by eating that flesh.” Hunters of Espers would inevitably…-

TZLUP Chapter 22
Chapter 22 “You were trapped and powerless with the controller on, weren’t you?” “I didn’t expect them to have a new model controller.” For the first time, Huikyung answered easily, as though all his previous wariness had been a lie. For someone who was rarely straightforward, this was surprising. Jaekani nodded as he followed behind Huikyung. A new model controller... That must mean there was an old model too. How had the villagers managed to secure the new one? And just how long…-

TZLUP Chapter 21
Chapter 21 Jaekani still hadn’t decided whether to forgive Huikyung or beg for his forgiveness. But now that everything he knew had been burned to ashes, he realized he had no choice. To survive, he had to stick with Huikyung somehow. After all, wasn’t he an Esper? Surely, he had some sort of plan if he’d gone to such lengths. In response to Jaekani’s firm demand to take responsibility, Huikyung muttered, almost as if to himself: “How old are you now?” “Ten.” Jaekani decided to…-
