Chapter 61
The day after meeting with Kwon Taehyuk and Ryu Sunghyun—
Completely drained of motivation, I lay sprawled on the couch, staring blankly at the ceiling.
‘I don’t want to do anything...’
Even when I tried, every time I closed my eyes, Ryu Sunghyun’s face would appear—his expression as he rejected my request drained the energy right out of me.
‘Yeah, let’s be honest. Hoping the Circle Guild doesn’t lose to Ronik... that’s just my own selfishness.’
If they had to choose between losing to a rival guild in a fair match or winning through underhanded means, both Ryu Sunghyun and the Circle Guildmaster would choose the former without hesitation.
As for me, I’d choose the latter. Fairness only matters when both sides play by the same rules. And Ronik Guild isn’t the kind of opponent that respects fairness.
I’m the selfish one. I shouldn’t drag good people down just because I want something. Better to just stay put.
“I’ll deal with Ronik myself later anyway.”
Saying I respected Ryu Sunghyun’s choice didn’t mean I was going to let Ronik off the hook.
I might’ve given up on the match, but those damn Ronik bastards... they’d get what was coming to them. Just as I was grinning to myself while planning their downfall, a shadow fell across my face.
“Huh?”
