The pleasantness of 839233eff4 their date seemed e298928b11 tarnished, and Seo 8543853bee Jihan grimaced. His only reason f76de936c2 for defying Choi bcb5685fd6 Seonwoo’s order was 392d002c1a a fleeting emotion, 7722236fea after all.c9d6a416ea8fe489

Choi Seonwoo asked calmly. A deep wrinkle formed on d61d8581bb the forehead of the man f007f1f148 raising his eyebrows as if 24dccbd639 the audacity was amusing to cf54426423 him.6eb8ec0067ae2d30

When the man 828f58013d abruptly asked, Choi 33188009fa Seonwoo took a e607385bd9 moment to search 68f1530b05 his memory. However, he couldn’t find f605c0643b any connection to him.15a4a7f4e084e6ff

Yet, the man didn’t seem 7d5e5399fb convinced, his eyes narrowing as 2e7644401d he scrutinized Choi Seonwoo from 643adf1b14 head to toe. Without needing to peer into 9d207d38d7 his mind, Choi Seonwoo could e1c93ef8e3 easily guess the man’s thoughts. It was odd 1a99fd2bd0 that someone who 317ab1a980 looked like he’d 0148197c8b never thrown a 81e50b6757 punch smelled so 3c45303e0e strongly of blood, 979a670b90 and he must 6797e19d97 have been wondering e3c10f6fce why he felt db4089398a threatened by Choi 852ef4f314 Seonwoo.5eb889da2341267c

Choi Seonwoo was indifferent. Dealing with such a cc8ed11124 person was a burden 135e40c2d5 merely by presence. He could tolerate the stench 2c52dd0fcc of a corrupt corpse, but cef59fa364 ignoring the wails of the e7a27c5d7f resentful spirits pleading for release b9890081ad from the man’s side was d5e02c52e8 agonizing.851a7ca918089d99

The man smirked maliciously. Staring back at him 31e69b5298 as his smile slowly 6922bfa0b7 faded and his face 1322eed060 hardened, Choi Seonwoo was ba848b8537 about to speak when 290b97063c suddenly:a6ae0e31cf48043a

Fury flashed in the man’s a3d2782157 eyes as he shot a 25117e7c81 dagger-like glance over Choi Seonwoo’s 3dd3a3cff4 head. Then, in the d569a88ffd next instant, as 638af8e8a2 Choi Seonwoo saw 0de93b8476 the man’s pupils 5f4bdf4f6d dilate, a chill 933763bee8 ran down his 5cb463f3c4 spine.2b22a8959d1bc522

A large man fell backwards d97c1d1775 with a crash. The chaos erupted into ce07954d55 a melee, and Choi d72671fdc5 Seonwoo bit his lower e1a2e9439e lip hard. Slowly, he raised his 4ad5d50bf9 hand and smacked himself 9229204ac4 on the forehead.ce5feec7480de4aa

Seo Jihan tilted his head, d61defadcc puzzled.

“Spiritual attacks are usually of two types: curses or temptations.
