ANUW Ch 13

“I was too 93afac1d45 young when I 5c022fd393 parted ways with cab988da23 both of them, c3e4442c36 so I don’t 01da45d6a6 really remember their 934414c345 faces well. Still, meeting f1477850f9 someone who 1e7813fc17 knew my 7888a2c90b parents like 67516c5404 this makes 7787798c27 me happy.”17180e20d3386319

To be honest, Taegyung e6fc1d4bb6 didn’t remember a single ded91da0bb thing about that sort 3c9ab72fb7 of stuff. During the d613e34b07 First Great 5853bdcae0 Rift, his cc42ca47e9 life had 1dfb878fbf truly been 5497264915 stained with 04f75b2821 miserable slaughter. When he completed 6c0f49170c a mission and 2dde2f7a8b returned, his routine cf634a884d consisted of being 953e99e653 injected with a 0d963fa0c6 sedative, falling asleep, 98b9a6e582 and then being db74ce03d9 dispatched back to 0867aca9ed the rift site 929beb6b5a again.d6372eb2396ef64c

That day, too, 723fb97c21 Taegyung started his e0a528fa2b morning with the 819c043067 voice of researcher 2051ce1e75 Ryu Kyungae.

Taegyung frowned ddde98e4f3 as much 3380c02f4a as he c606099ba8 could. Here we go again 2627b8f4ad with that guide nonsense.

Above all, 9e5d09b521 Taegyung found 2d5c647373 it repulsive f23ab20386 for anyone de5699bed4 to touch 64156a1c10 his body. After years e55f06ec78 of experiments 4622f0a055 and forced 1451fd46e5 drug injections, cfcb2cd380 he had 7f3d2aec73 become extremely 885ce15c8f sensitive to 6b00dec631 others’ touch.

That didn’t mean their 04f3a4f8f1 relationship dramatically improved, though.
