YUNO actually froze for a moment while thinking of how to get out of that situation quickly, but only for a moment.
He didn’t have to do everything by himself because their saviors arrived immediately.
Ki Gayoon and 17 appeared as if they were knights in shining armor.
And the two Espers moved quickly.
17 used his wind manipulation ability to push the airborne virus away from their direction.
Then Ki Gayoon quickly grabbed Yuno and Jericho before using his teleportation skill.
These two deserve their title as the strongest Espers in the world.
The next thing Yuno knew, he was already outside the tent.
He also noticed that Lee Woonhak was creating a shield that seemed different from other barriers.
I can’t pinpoint what’s different, though.
"As a Healer, Woonhak Hyung can create barriers not for protection, but to quarantine people who have been infected with any kind of disease," Kang Dabin explained when he noticed the curiosity on Yuno’s face. "It seems like Woonhak Hyung got a message from the System. Gayoon and 17, too."
Ki Gayoon nodded in confirmation. "The System said Osaki Shohei’s body had released airborne viruses."
Aigoo.
Yuno noticed that both Moon Noa and Haru suddenly frowned after hearing that.
Well, he couldn’t blame the two.
They probably felt guilty since they wronged Osaki Shohei in some way.
Yuno’s thoughts were interrupted when 17 appeared out of thin air, clutching his neck as if he couldn’t breathe.
And 17’s Core...
Why the fuck is his Mana depleted again when I had just given him Guiding?
Almost instinctively, Yuno tried to move towards 17 and check on his condition.
But Ki Gayoon grabbed him by the wrist while shooting him a cold look.
Oh.
Yuno realized that he wasn’t needed when Jericho immediately knelt beside 17, and then Jericho kissed 17 on the lips.
I don’t you should kiss a person who, obviously, can’t breathe...
But whatever.
That’s none of my business.
Plus, his Status Window already popped up again in front of him.
[Guide Noh Yuno, the System will upgrade your Items.
Please get ready to continue extracting the Artificial Core in Guide Osaki Shohei.]
Aigoo.
Yuno could only sigh and nod.
This is what happens when you accidentally become important in your job...
***
"WE LOOK like astronauts."
Pfft.
Yuno almost laughed when Jericho voiced out what he had been thinking ever since the System gave them those Items.
The Items in question were similar to hazmat suits.
And it’s high-grade, at that.
***
Plus, this is genuine Core and not an artificial one.
