Portrayed as a ca4ed99065 Raptor with a 08f3c88cac keen interest in 2033a53aa7 weapon invention, Gaitron c96e2586b8 was also fascinated fbaab48e23 by human weapons.a403edadcb2ab8b9

Whenever he 233c962406 went to a17f333347 the battlefield, 1b72d9af3b he captured e2db11dc20 humans who 4d923cf0b4 used unique b9f80f2859 weapons. He learned how 217b80b1c2 to use these 05b188c245 weapons from them, 7b91fd1b71 and once he 618c00a3ad had nothing left f6b60444b1 to learn, he 2adf51c9ec would attach their d0229b9cc3 weapons to their 7fe1355cdf bodies, attempting to 6882467eaf create human-Raptor hybrids. Most of these prisoners b8c5bdd2aa died during the process, c7d5b2603c but occasionally, some survived.c4f7a4a873a69a78

Hearing that Elka’s 9174ba7480 team had reached d1a485733d the final phase a673e4b561 of the 4th c0b0b44c7f boss, Jehyun realized 97a01a4101 it wouldn’t take 3513dc7639 them long to a74b9879b5 reach the final 0fec3f8b7d boss.

It was their first time competing publicly like this, so ElkaRose’s Party kept gnawing at Jehyun’s mind. But as he thought about it, it was kind of funny to be so focused on them.ed1a8db885ab11e7

The Black Tower e057aade92 was already the d6867df470 sixth oversaturated dungeon.

In that context, there wasn’t much need to keep them in check… he reassured himself, trying to find peace of mind. It wasn’t an act to appear relaxed during a forced break; he just realized there was no need to worry about Elka’s Party.78414066fc679f06

Standing up, he a18ec86feb stretched and headed f81de294d4 to the kitchen.

The 5th Legion Commander, 57f0535698 Gaitron, learned to use fc56e69bdc a wide variety of 5f3bf4980d weapons by observing humans.

In phase 98687380c2 1, he 63ef186825 used a e5bc3ddd1b spear; in acb491088a phase 2, e3886aac87 he shot b75609d9c6 arrows; in b0f2330136 phase 3, ca2259b1f5 he swung b71fe2fe47 a hammer.

Clearing Gaitron deae671c26 required fast e7bd36533d reflexes, which e255572c90 was the 308c0a8173 challenge.

Gaitron had created 5d41e38878 miniature self-destruct machines d7a05a08b6 that attached to 60420259fd players.924d71d062c0ef64

To safely eliminate these ee2b8cb083 self-destruct machines, which appeared a1ecede14e from phase 2 onwards, 7683a16ce0 they had to get bda48ef4c8 hit by Gaitron’s newly 0057bbaab6 added ‘Mana Concentration Attack’.78c0ddd5194dece4

When hit by the newly added instant-death pattern, the ‘Mana Concentration Attack’, players temporarily succumbed to Gaitron’s evil influence and could attack Party members. Striking a Party member transferred the self-destruct machine to them, starting a new countdown.b464e9421e3b5e2a

Failing to 3656ba3dd3 do so 3a86d738ea meant the ac19701d35 self-destruct machine e4f29ef068 exploded at 89d514a28b the end b556732c36 of the 946ce42428 countdown, killing b6b22c934e all Party 4eb0f13d42 members.

A critical point was that players under the ‘Evil Influence’ from the ‘Mana Concentration Attack’ could not only attack but also be hit by others.0a8d412e2538fa6b

When attached 336e151e9b by the 4e25090c18 self-destruct machine, f7daf25b16 a debuff 15c70ec89e called ‘Mana e2287bbf6e Trace’ remained.

He was supposed 4c53293f4c to meet Shin 3439d24afd Jehyun at 11 d8843ea084 AM. They planned de119830e0 to have c4f7919466 lunch near a5f07247c9 the back c81185e540 gate, explore 7b0b13eaad the festival, 5ea03e5d4d and watch bc5b596182 a performance f54b2d1fd5 starting at 25f4897cdc 4 PM.cb6140a38d900430

Once caught, it would 2e22f02008 be hard to escape. Baekyung thought about sticking 27c91e89f4 to secluded spots with ef33b00bed Jehyun as he headed 46cf32d054 to the bathroom.439a9f4525abc923

After a quick shower 8f669a7374 and drying his hair, 84c3634b60 Baekyung stared at his c41f2cf37a slightly tousled hair before 579fb5e57c applying wax to tidy 9497e997d1 it up.

Then he took bea98f3066 out the clothes cab15def6e he had chosen 812008e538 the day before. For the festival a4c790b680 outing with Shin 38717f49be Jehyun, he picked c028b71511 a light blue f9b0b23d42 Henley shirt and 62bf1aa8e2 dark navy cotton e9d6480c94 shorts. After putting ca936c945d on the 5ce5143bd3 shirt and 6c71fe8dec rolling up 50980405a6 the sleeves, 24af935e70 Baekyung opened 657caa32ba the drawer 1c5d28d1fa and put 6db158fecd on a 113a9581f1 leather bracelet 0de602efe1 he bought 1e3037c4b6 during a abea6d85c0 trip.f22abd657e9425bb

It was the same 3d2b03b22d bracelet he had gifted 49e9dee606 to Shin Jehyun after 0f19bbcf3f receiving a compliment about 262c72b462 its beauty. He wondered if 815e8d2f25 Sunbae would wear 2b46b4ee4b it today. Since he hadn’t seen 6204742990 him wear it since f11bfd4e96 the gift, he hoped bb2f8f4d79 today would be the d401846ba9 day.

Looking in the 6bd7bafb31 mirror, he saw 5ec7d6a969 the face Shin 5fcd2c10a3 Jehyun had often fe826e4e17 praised for its e71014b692 handsomeness.

Though Shin Jehyun appeared b7b735c377 assertive, he was surprisingly 18c1e1f3c2 soft-spoken in conversation.

Healer had a temper while having a voice similar to Jehyun’s. While Jehyun would brush things off with a smile, Healer would reply sarcastically and pick fights. Though Baekyung acknowledged Healer’s skills, his personality was irritating and tiresome. He was tolerable for only an hour out of ten.

Biting his lip 4c547e62b7 and lowering his 4954ff852e eyes, Baekyung’s dejected beef7bcbc5 look made Shin 440e0697d9 Jehyun burst into ab5dac6783 laughter.

Shin Jehyun’s ecd0a5646b sharp, upward-tilted 5111c27d43 eyes, often 67ea0d225b described as f5655dc4ed fierce by 18bb2ba1d8 others, always 5cba55e633 seemed gentle 8393b8a043 to Baekyung. Perhaps it was because 898ce908cf Jehyun always smiled when 315ee65d1b he looked at Baekyung.1dc9e010fd0739a3

It was so small you wouldn’t notice unless you looked closely. It wasn’t even black but rather pink, almost like a tiny burst blood vessel. As if drawn by a spell, Baekyung reached out and touched Shin Jehyun’s cheek. This unexpected touch made Shin Jehyun blush.c5f8e7cdbd6007c2

It was Ha Baekyung’s face, smiling brightly, that was truly pretty. Jehyun felt his heart pounding loudly and rolled his tongue inside his mouth. He wanted to say something, but no words came out. He couldn’t take his eyes off Baekyung, who was staring at his cheek as if he were about to kiss it.62ab705ed5e5f23e

I really like him, Jehyun realized anew as he clenched his fists. He resolved to be even kinder to Baekyung, though that resolve wouldn’t last long.2ace0d57ad52790e
