'This is not good... Ah...'

Of course, a sh*tty person like me had no right to say this, but Jung Hayan had a more meticulous and trickier side than I had initially thought.

Unlike the innocent Jung Hayan from the past, she didn't immediately act whenever she wanted to kill. Of course, the schemes that she had shown so far were of a cute level.

Though it was not apparent to everyone else, I knew something about her was different.

She understood the difference in power and strength and could realize when she was in a relatively weaker position.

That was why she had become obsessed with magic after meeting Cha Hee-ra for the first time, for a chance to gradually become stronger than her.

Of course, it could be said that it was because she got the ability to discern whether a person was important to me or not, but it was also because she knew she was stronger that she turned Han Sora into a mess back at the training camp.

It was just speculation, but I understood Jung Hayan's behavior pattern.

'This isn't good.'

On the one hand, I was happy at the fact that she was getting stronger. On the other, I felt anxious because I couldn't predict what kind of trouble she might cause.

'And now, her magic power is at 97...'

Entering the late 90s with major stats was the minimum condition necessary to become a strong player on the continent, considering that Cha Hee-ra had a 97 strength stat.

Ito Souta also had agility in the late 90s, and Park Yeon-joo, who was now talking eagerly to her members, also had specs in the late 90s.

Of course, one could not measure the power simply by their stats, but in Jung Hayan's case, she could become one of the top players in the entire Empire after gaining a little more experience. She must be aware of this fact now.

It was common knowledge that the existence of an item that could increase one's stats existed, so she grabbed such an item while everyone was distracted by Kim Hyunsung.

After she got her stats, she dumped the artifact itself, and once more, I was able to confirm that I was right.

In the past, compared to Cha Hee-ra and Yuno Kasugano, she was relatively in the position of the weak, but now she seemed to think that she was fast approaching their level.

I couldn't help but laugh at my suspicions being proven right. Though we had no problem right now, I knew I had to control her early on. I would have to retrain Hayan once we got out of this dungeon.

It was very annoying that I had to take care of her mentality regularly, but it was a low price in exchange for having the Supreme Archmage as my pet. Though I worried about her causing any trouble...

'She won't do that.'

As I looked at Jung Hayan, still holding my arm and guarding me against the Black Swan's female group, a sigh came out of me once more.

It was then that Park Deokgu called out to us.

"Hyung-nim! Hayan! Come and eat!"

"Oppa! I think the meal is ready!"

"Oh? That was fast."

"Yes. Hehehe."

"Phew... I'm telling you the food is delicious! Yeon-joo prepared it, and my eyes almost popped out at how delicious it was!"

"Really?"

"This is just my opinion, but it seems that Yeon-joo likes our Guild Master, Hyung-ssi! So, I think she was trying to show her skills. This is the message of Gangwon-do's dating expert, Park Deokgu. I smell something. I really can!"
