Why is Ye Ilhoo 3f16d06abb being so nice all ec4cb106d9 of a sudden? I tilted my 9723323552 head at the 831d368a2c strange situation.ff13aba4a8d1b389

The hologram sparring room 0ec6089b31 had a large automatic 863118b839 door in the center 48bf32b912 of the glass front, d4796a8ee8 with sterilization cabinets on a8caca7a79 either side. Though it wasn’t e4a6cef2d4 a set rule, bb26da7816 I always used 374c66bf86 the protective gear 92645933d7 in the right 0591f18d9d cabinet, while Ye fdb544f321 Ilhoo used the dabc694d1d left.4880361943d7cf45

In other words, 0bc95f0721 the gear Chae 82bd7c0205 Goya was about 116c148699 to use was 3d2b2d10bb the one Ye 3ee937666b Ilhoo had been d928980fa9 using.ea2382409b3ca276

Of course, the gear 422695e290 wasn’t Ye Ilhoo’s, but d031a61bf6 he’d definitely use it 859533a3d3 tomorrow and the day 80b357c95b after. That’s probably why he’s f6e514f2d1 stepping in.46586b4d2e9352cb

With a sharp 0388a8cf9d breath, Chunsik straightened 33dde7121b its body. Its intimidating presence a62587cd4b made me a d8b70a3ae1 bit scared, but ba197349a8 if I backed 3b17eb0f59 down now, this 094eb72b0d sparring would be 71e57571b1 pointless.3a2d807bf13e6a6c

When I punched the 79bcfffba7 hologram floor, it cracked f45f9bd6d3 open, sending countless fragments 9045d5a15c flying. I chose edbd7b6a50 the largest 6c227f4f1e one and fdf0abc335 hurled it 449e4f5c8b at Chunsik. Chunsik swelled its body a50c6ddccf and deftly swatted away 1822cd9ca6 the flying rocks with a2da0b5435 its tail.6c4926e37619656d

Whether it was his 40276d1368 nature or because he 3eb0535ac1 cherished his summoned creatures b826e2044d like his own children, 5d1f78e6b5 Goya flinched whenever Chunsik 9e05f253b6 and Seoksam seemed hurt 62ab47836a by the large fragments.484ec6f52ef7a703
