Guide Me If You Dare-Chapter 121: MATCHING COLORS

HAAAH.

Ki Gayoon had to take a deep breath while trying not to jump Noh Yuno.

The entire room was filled with the Guide’s Mana.

And, for Espers, their Guide’s Mana was like an addicting scent that would never fail to make them sexually aroused.

However, Gayoon’s worry was stronger than his lust at that moment.

Why is that punk holding a dangerous looking dagger?

Yeah, that was what was happening there.

Gayoon sat on the edge of his bed while Yuno was sitting on the floor, facing while, while holding a freaking dagger.

Moon Noa, just how did you raise this punk, huh?

He knew that Noh Yuno was special as an E-Class Guide.

That was why Gayoon was worried.

Again.

I don’t know how to take care of this punk properly.

"Hyung, I’m telling you this in advance because you worry too much," Noh Yuno said in a serious tone, raising the old-looking dagger as if to show him. "But this dagger is an Item that Haru-nim gifted to me before."

"The fuck," Gayoon complained even though the punk hadn’t started with his explanation yet. "Why did that prince bastard give you an expensive gift?"

Items from dungeons cost a fortune— even by my standards.

"Because Haru-nim is a generous rich dude who can afford to give me an expensive gift without asking for anything in return?" Noh Yuno explained, giving Gayoon a look that said he was "overreacting" again. "Anyway, this Item can pump out more blood than normal with just one cut. So, even if Hyung thinks I’m bleeding too much, don’t panic. I’ll be fine."

"You’ll still lose a lot of blood, and you’re telling me not to panic?"

"It’s not to the point that I’ll die, Hyung."

"Will you only be satisfied if I get a heart attack because of your crazy antics?"

Noh Yuno let out a sigh. "Should I just do this in my room, Hyung?"

"No, stay where I can see you," Gayoon said, and then he crossed his arms over his chest. "Let’s just get this done and over with."

"I would have been done with this already if Hyung didn’t start yapping."

"Yah."

"I’m on it, Hyung."

Gayoon was shocked when Noh Yuno suddenly slashed his palm with the dagger unceremoniously.

What the...!

Noh Yuno didn’t flinch as if he was already used to it.

This punk, really...

Gayoon wanted to scold Noh Yuno, but he was left speechless when blood gushed out of the punk’s cut.

The blood didn’t stay in liquid form.

Red "blood crystals"— Noh Yuno’s blood turned into five crystal balls the size of a regular glass marble before they hit the floor, rolling until a few hit Gayoon’s feet.

What are these...?

Gayoon wanted to ask Noh Yuno, but the punk suddenly fell to the floor.

"Yuno-ya!"

"I’m fine, Hyung," Noh Yuno said weakly, raising his shaking hand to give Gayoon a thumbs up. "Lemme just catch my breath for a moment."

***

YUNO flinched when Ki Gayoon poured a healing potion over the cut on his palm.

There he was, sitting on his Esper’s bed while drinking banana milk while letting Ki Gayoon attend to his wound.

I feel like I’m really turning into a princess...

"Did you just make Mana Pills?"

"They are similar to Mana Pills, only they aren’t meant to stop you from Rampaging, Hyung," Yuno explained. "I guess it’s more appropriate to call them antidote."

Ki Gayoon raised his head and looked at him after his explanation. "For the poison?" frёeωebɳovel.com

"Yes," Yuno said. "I’m sorry to ask this, but please eat that pill before we go to the party, Hyung. Once consumed, that pill would act like a sponge that absorbs any harmful substance in your body. I have a feeling that those bastards will use a stronger poison next time."

"So, you think they’ll attack the Espers first?"

"Of course. Most Guides can’t fight. So, they’ll try to immobilize the Espers before the Guides."

"Am I supposed to share the pills with my fellow Top 5 Espers?"

"I wouldn’t recommend it, Hyung," Yuno said while shaking his head. "I feel sorry to say this, but that antidote is made solely for you since you’re my Esper. Other Espers could consume the antidote, but then they’d feel physically attracted to me since it was made with my Mana."

As expected, Ki Gayoon frowned. "Then I will never share the antidote with them even if the poison kills them."

"They’ll be fine. The poison used by the enemies doesn’t harm Guides, so their Guides can just purify the toxin in their bodies in case they get poisoned."

"If that’s the case, then why did you make the antidote for me in advance?"

Because I might be busy chasing the serial killer during the party, so I’m not sure I have the time to guide Hyung by then.

Of course, Yuno wasn’t crazy enough to answer Ki Gayoon with honesty.

Because Hyung will overreact.

"Prevention is better than cure," Yuno lied with a straight face. "At least one of the Top 5 should be immune to the poison. Hyung is the strongest, so in case the worst-case scenario happens, you have to fight the serial killer while the other Espers are receiving Guiding from their Guides."

"That sounds convincing, but I don’t trust you and your reckless way of living," Ki Gayoon said, scoffing. "I won’t let you out of my sight during the party."

Aigoo.

"Whatever, Hyung," Yuno said, covering his mouth with his hands when he yawned. "Can we sleep early tonight? I’m tired."

"Sure," Ki Gayoon said. "You have to get up early, though."

"I won’t work out, Hyung. I’m tired."

"You lazy punk. I’m not going to force you to exercise. Not for now, at least."

"Then why does Hyung want me to get up early tomorrow?"

"I ordered five ready-made suits for you."

"How did you know my size, Hyung?"

"Moon Noa told me even though I didn’t ask."

"You should be grateful to Sajangnim then. How would you know my size if it wasn’t for him?"

"It’s not like it’s hard to guess your size," Ki Gayoon said, and then he suddenly straddled Yuno’s hips. The Esper then placed one hand on Yuno’s chest, while the other hand slid down his waist. "You’re probably size small."

"I’m only small next to Hyung, but my build is average," Yuno insisted. "Hyung, your flirting sucks."

"Well, I have to go easy on you tonight since I’m not planning to eat you at the moment."

Aigoo.

"You sleep first," Ki Gayoon said, getting up. "I’ll just take a shower."

"But you already did, Hyung?"

"I need to take a really, really cold shower this time."

Oh.

Pfft.

Yuno chuckled while shaking his head. "That’s what you get for being so horny, Hyung."

"Yes, yes, I’m being punished," Ki Gayoon said lightheartedly, and then he grinned at Yuno. "I’m already looking forward to you making it up to me, Yuno-ya."

Aigoo.

YUNO, munching on some cinnamon rolls that he was having as dessert after breakfast, blinked quite rapidly while staring at the five suits displayed in front of him.

As expected, they all look the same to me.

Except for the colors.

One was dark gray.

One was black.

One was navy blue.

One was tan.

Those four suits were dark in color, something that Yuno expected Ki Gayoon to choose.

But there was one color that stood out.

"Pastel pink suit?"

Ki Gayoon scowled. "I didn’t order that. It was probably Moon Noa who placed the order while I was distracted. He said your favorite color is pink."

"That’s true. My personal color is pink since it makes my skin look more radiant," Yuno said, nodding. "I choose that pastel pink suit, Hyung."

"What?" Ki Gayoon asked, knitting his eyebrows. "Why that color?"

"Hyung, don’t tell me you’re one of those scumbags who look down on pink because it’s "hyper-feminine." My goodness gracious. It’s just a pretty color."

"No, it’s not like that."

"Then what?"

"I want to match with you!"

"Then wear pink?"

Ki Gayoon opened his mouth to complain, but he closed it when no words came out. And then he leaned against the sofa’s backseat as if he suddenly lost all strength. "You’ll be the death of me, Noh Yuno."

"Hyung, wearing pink won’t kill you or your masculinity. Real men wear pink," Yuno said, gently patting Ki Gayoon’s back. "Now let’s choose your pink suit to match mine."

MOONLIGHT HOTEL.

It was a five-star hotel in the heart of Seoul.

And, yes, it was owned by Moon Noa’s family.

To be precise, my noona owns Moonlight Hotel.

Hence, Moon Noa suggested the party be held at the grand ballroom at their hotel.

Of course, that meant he’d shoulder the expenses.

"Hyung-nim, I heard Yuno and Esper Ki Gayoon-ssi are already here," Leehan, who was standing next to him, said while holding a glass of champagne. His bodyguard didn’t want to stand out, so he chose a simple black suit. Even so, Leehan looked dapper in it. "I wonder what suit our Yuno chose."

"The pink one," Moon Noa said, taking a sip of his champagne. "Definitely the pink one since it’s Yuyu’s favorite color."

Leehan looked like he was about to say something, but the doors suddenly opened.

The loud crowd suddenly fell silent.

Even the music stopped playing.

And Moon Noa almost choked on his champagne.

Noh Yuno and Ki Gayoon rendered everyone speechless with their grand entrance— but it was more so because of the natural S-Class Esper.

Pfft.

Moon Noa already expected Noh Yuno to wear the pastel pink suit, but never in his wild dreams did he expect to see Ki Gayoon wearing a dusty pink suit. Granted that it was muted pink, it was still a color no one expected the natural S-Class Esper to wear.

After all, Ki Gayoon was known to wear only black suits, no matter the theme or occasion.

Yoonyoon, you’re so down bad for our Yuyu.
