Chapter 145:
We kindly ask for your understanding regarding the inconsistency of character pronouns, particularly for the Entities (ex. The Greedy Predator). In Korean, pronouns are rarely used, making it challenging to ascertain a character's gender or identity until later narratives unfold. Update twice a week [SUN] & [THURS] starting August 2024!

“What about Seong Jarim? Should we bring her along?”
— I’ve considered it, but I could only secure two train tickets.
“Oh, I see. If she finds out later that we went without her, she’ll be really upset.”
Seora contemplated the situation. The departure was tomorrow, and no matter how much Seong Jarim wished, securing holiday train tickets on short notice was a daunting task.
“We’ll bring her souvenirs. Well then, see you tomorrow,” Seora said as she hung up.
As she ended the call, she noticed the fox again. It appeared melancholic, with its ears and tail drooping, but Seora remained resolute. “I set a condition, and the one who refused was you. What do you think? Do you have any thoughts of changing your mind now?”
The fox wore a contemplative expression, which always fascinated her.

Crying again. No matter how much the fox cried, it was futile. Since he wouldn’t listen to her, she could do nothing. Seora shrugged. “I’m sorry, but I can’t give in to this.” She firmly shook her head at the fox and the administrator beyond it.
She was willing to give the fox anything it wanted, except for one thing. She wanted to meet him. No, a simple meeting wouldn’t suffice anymore. She desired to hear his story, build a deeper connection, and share emotions. The administrator couldn’t be oblivious to her feelings.
