Chapter 96

Yu Yeong found his voice only a few seconds later. 

"No, of course not! I saw a shadow running this way and I got worried. Since Jun and Hyeon were too busy with handling the other enemies, I decided to come and check out the situation here."

"I see." Hyun sighed softly. 

Seeing this, Yu Yeong finally realized the direction the young man's thoughts had taken.

"Hyun, were you perhaps suspecting me of something?" 

"No… not really." Hyun lowered his head. "I just wanted to make things clear."

"Hn." Yu Yeong hummed, staring at Hyun.

He looked as though he wanted to say something, but hesitated. Before he could ponder on it further, though, a sharp scream echoed through the air.

The sound of that voice hit Hyun straight in his gut, almost leaving him breathless.

"Jung-Hee." Hyun gasped.
