Chapter 111
The moment I jumped down from the building, I spotted light spilling from a first-floor window.
There was no time to waste—Cha Sahyeon was surely waiting in the hospital room—but my feet wouldn’t move.
I pressed my back against the outer wall to avoid detection and listened. Clear voices drifted from beyond the window—members of the guild still in the building, chatting and laughing.
Come to think of it, even before regression, we used to gather like this and stay up late talking.
Since I lived at the guild and had nowhere else to go, the members had found out about my situation and deliberately stayed behind to hang out with me.
Looking back now, it was all so stupid.
I wasn’t a minor or anything. I was a grown adult—what would possibly happen if I spent a night alone in an empty guild? Even so, a few of them would always stay behind to keep me company.
That won’t happen anymore.
There was no one like me left in the Circle Guild.
Now, people stayed behind not out of concern or pity, but simply to have fun.
I listened to the laughter for a moment longer, then pushed myself off the wall and began walking. As I headed toward the road to catch a taxi, I thought:
It’s probably best not to see anyone from the Circle Guild for a while.
