I Don’t Want This Reincarnation
chapter-194

As soon as Cheon Sa-yeon finished speaking, Park Geon-ho grabbed my neck as I was about to run away, and shoved me onto the sofa. Woo Seo-hyuk bent my arms behind my back and held them firmly, while pressing my thighs with his calves to prevent them from escaping.

“Ugh…!”

Piiik! Pik!

The terrified Fox rushed at Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk with all his might, but the two never budged. My neck, arms, and legs were all tangled up, so no matter how twisted my body was, I couldn’t escape from them.

Park Geon-ho pressed me down, who was gasping for breath, without mercy and said as if to appease me.

“Good. Be quiet.”

What a good shit. I gritted my teeth and wrinkled my face in annoyance that I had been subjected to such an obvious thing.

Even if it was Cheon Sa-yeon, I didn’t know Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk would be like this. No matter what Cheon Sa-yeon said as the master, how could they follow such a ridiculous order?

“I’m sorry.”

“If you’re sorry, you let me go…”

Even if I looked at Woo Seo-hyuk, who calmly apologized, the heavy weight on my body didn’t disappear. I finally turned my attention to Cheon Sa-yeon.

“What is this doing now?”

“You left and came back on you own, shouldn’t you be prepared for this?”

“Stop talking the fucking nonsense.”

Deciding that the conversation was meaningless, I raised my energy without hesitation. It was different now from Kim Woo-jin. Kim Woo-jin, who fell into a panic and made a mistake without realizing it, I fully understood, but I didn’t want to understand this situation.

Huuuung—!

A strong wind began to blow around my body. Kkigik, gik. The furniture in the room was pushed and swayed here and there.

“Let me go.”

If the wind was sharply changed like this, even S-rank Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk would be hurt to some extent. When I gave the last warning, Cheon Sa-yeon, who had been silently watching, blinked at Kwon Jeong-han.

“Yi-gyeol-hyung, ‘please be happy.’”

“……”

Without responding to Kwon Jeong-han’s words, I raised one eyebrow and shrugged my shoulders.

“That’s exactly what I expected. I guess it was just luck that first worked.”

“Hm.”

It was natural. Such mental ability couldn’t work for me since my energy as ‘Kwon Se-hyun’ became stronger and more stable than when I first met Kwon Jeong-han.

‘These bastards are really…’

Reaching the limit of my patience, I smiled wildly and changed the flow of energy. Just as a sharp wind was about to blow, with the momentum to attack everyone except for Min Ah-rin, who was watching us anxiously from the corner, the energy suddenly cut off.

“Hu-ugh…!”

An exhilarating pain in my heart passed by for an instant. As my body shook and lowered his gaze, I saw Cheon Sa-yeon holding the other ankle instead of the injured one.

It was then that I remembered the ability of his right hand, which I had forgotten. I couldn’t believe he used that deceptive ability to block the energy of powerful talented person twice already.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who had his head bowed, noticed my gaze, lifted his face and smiled. In his opposite hand was the silver shackles he had pulled out of his inventory earlier.

“Hold on, wait…!”

Whether I was shocked or not, Cheon Sa-yeon put shackles on my ankles without hesitation. Clack, the shackles that fit snugly around the ankles gleamed in the light of the fluorescent lamps with the sound of the seams engaging. Even if Cheon Sa-yeon’s right hand fell off, I still couldn’t feel my energy, so it was definitely a shutter item.

When the shackles were filled, Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk also quietly stepped back. As I raised my upper body, Fox rushed into my arms.

Cheon Sa-yeon with the end of a chain long enough to go round the room and connected to the leg of the sofa stood crookedly with his arms crossed.

“You can’t go out with that big sofa, so this gives me peace of mind.”

“Ha…”

I was stunned by that blatant remark, and a headache came to me. As I touched my forehead and took a deep breath, Park Geon-ho smiled bitterly and opened his mouth.

“I’m sorry, Han Yi-gyeol. The outside situation isn’t very good right now.”

“I don’t want to do such inhumane behaviour, but I guess Han Yi-gyeol-ssi’s ability is… I’m sorry.”

I let out a vain laugh at the two of them and shook my shackled legs. The chains attached to the shackles creaked and made a sound.

“You’re talking nonsense. For whatever reason, by what right are you going to tie me up?”

As I calmly argued, barely suppressing the boiling inside, Cheon Sa-yeon sat across from me again and answered calmly.

“Then let’s say we caught a criminal who broke into the guild at will. You might be a spy sent to steal important information from a competing guild.”

“I beg your pardon?”

“Why, am I wrong? I think it’s true that you broke in secretly?”

“……”

It was true… but…

“Looking at the situation, it seems that you have just returned. Do you have any information about the situation in Korea?”

I don’t… have that, but…

“I heard that Kim Woo-jin, who was half insane, was going to the room upstairs. How are you going to solve it?”

“……”

The more I listened to Cheon Sa-yeon’s words, the hotter inside, the colder it got, as if a cold wave had arrived. It wasn’t bad, but it sounded right. Well, in the first place, if I had a chance, I was going to meet Cheon Sa-yeon and ask about it. I had no intention of meeting them all so soon. (뜨겁게 달아오르던 속은 천사연의 말을 들으면 들을수록 한파가 찾아온 것처럼 차갑게 식어 갔다)

As my momentum waned, Min Ah-rin, who had been watching me the whole time, approached me with a slightly relieved expression.

“I’m really sorry, Yi-gyeol-ssi. But I’m sincere as much as I’m worried about Yi-gyeol-ssi.”

When I met her round eyes filled with fear that she might be hated by me, strength fell from my stiff shoulders.

“Yes, I understand.”

“Accidents have happened very often in Seoul over the past few days. Above all, if the video spreads and goes out without permission, there will be problems.”

“The video?”

“Uh, you don’t know?”

Min Ah-rin pulled out her cell phone and held it out to me. When I saw the video playing on the screen, I narrowed my eyes.

“This…”

I could clearly see myself subduing the man who was threatening two students on the street. There were so many spectators, I expected something to happen, but I didn’t expect it to be this fast.

“Where did you find this video?”

“Jeong-han-ssi found what was posted on the fan cafe.”

“Fan cafe?”

Confused at the words I had never imagined, I bit my tongue slightly. No, that hadn’t ruined yet?

“Yes. So we were all watching together, and just then, Yi-gyeol-ssi called. I heard Woo-jin-ssi’s name being called over the phone, so I came to the 23rd floor just in case. Woo-jin-ssi comes here many times a day…”

“…that’s how it happened.”

Now I understood why they were rushing in. I exhaled a tired breath and wiped my eyes. In the end, it was me who was the cause.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who was sitting in front of me, leaned his back on the sofa and said.

“You put your fist in the opponent’s face properly.”

“I had no choice since he threated the ordinary people.”

“The video has already spread like wildfire, so I can’t get my hands on it. However, I’ve stopped the article from appearing, so nothing more will be uploaded other than the video.”

“……”

I was embarrassed by Cheon Sa-yeon’s act of helping naturally and swept the nape of my neck.

“…even if you didn’t fill in these things, if you had explained them properly from the beginning, I would have been convinced. So let me go.”

“That’s impossible. Didn’t you hear what I said earlier? Those shackles were filled with the crime of sneaking in here.”

Cheon Sa-yeon refused with a single blow as if it was impossible. Damn it. Did I come to the Requiem Guild for nothing?

‘If I had known this would happen, I should meet Ha Tae-heon first.’

I had to hand over the sword anyway. I had a lot of work to do, but I never imagined that I would be tied up like this.

“I can see clearly what you are thinking.”

“What else do you mean?”

“You seem to regret that you didn’t to go to Deputy Master Ha Tae-heon, but that one wouldn’t be much different. I don’t what you believe in and naively look for Ha Tae-heon… that’s funny.”

“Ha Tae-heon-ssi is not that kind of…”

Reflexively trying to refute, I remembered Ha Tae-heon’s actions just before returning to Korea and stopped talking.

He wasn’t that kind of a person… was he? Thanks to Ha Tae-heon’s unusual side, I couldn’t quickly say no. Cheon Sa-yeon, who smirked as if he knew I would, tapped the chain with his tiptoe.

“Don’t do useless things and stay calm. At least until the footage gets buried.”

“……”

Contrary to the coercive content, the tone was quite soft, and it sounded like a request rather than a command. What the hell he was up to. I glared at Cheon Sa-yeon with a pouty look, and whispered to Fox I was holding in my arms.

“Do you remember my request? Go back to the room. Go ahead and keep it.”

Piii.

Fox heard what I said and cried a little, and then disappeared. Fortunately, no one entered the bedroom, so no one found the sword. Fox would go in and hide it with his invisibility like before.

When Fox in my arms disappeared, Park Geon-ho and Min Ah-rin showed interest with their eyes twinkling, and Cheon Sa-yeon narrowed his brows dissatisfied.

“If you’re going to lock me up here, don’t touch Fox.”

“Even if I say no, you’re good at talking, saying you’ll ignore me.”

“And I can’t live in a chain like this. I wouldn’t even be able to change clothes.”

“Let me take care of that.”

Cheon Sa-yeon smiled and took out a small remote control that looked like a car key from his inventory. When he pressed the button embedded in the centre of the remote control, with a beep and sound, the chain hanging from the shackles turned transparent.

“In the current state, objects can pass through, so you will be able to change clothes.”

“Crazy, was the chain an item?”

I tried to move my legs just in case, but the chain was pulled tight even in transparent state. I thought the best way to get out was to break the chains or shackles.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who confirmed that the chain had returned to its original state by pressing the button once again, threw the remote control at me and continued the explanation.

“I hope the shutter function is working properly so there is no diving out of the window.”

“If you’re that worried, can you just let me go?”

As I forcibly raised the corners of my trembling lips and said a word, Cheon Sa-yeon responded with a stern reply.

“No.”

“……”

Shameless bastard…

I asked again, glaring at the chains that were in good condition and the smooth silver shackles on my ankles.

“Why on earth do you have such perverted items?”

“This item was personally commissioned from Edward. I’m very satisfied because it was made much better than I expected.”

This crazy guy. What the hell did he make the little boy do? Even with my disgusting gaze, Cheon Sa-yeon smiled regardless.
