You looked at Vasco up and down. The guy you looked up to, was right here before you.

You considered talking to him, but you decided not to draw much attention to yourself and went inside the convenience store, leaving Jiho and Vasco behind.

As soon as you entered the store, you were met with a shocked Daniel. He was surprised to see you, the guy who whispered to him in the morning.

You were confused as to why he was so shocked though. You didn't think he saw you fight either, you smiled at him and went to grab triangular kimbap, a packet of ramyeon with chocolate milk. You bought it to the counter and he hurriedly rang it up and packed it for you.

Politely nodding your head, you left quietly. The orb still by your side.

"I thought you didn't want to be noticed?"

"I didn't."

"Then why did you save Jiho? Is he your favorite character?"

As the orb says this, you sighed and put your hand in the back of your neck.

"He's not. I was just being wary."

"Why?"

"Since he might push Daniel out in the future, Jiho is kind of a special case for me."

The orb stays silent as if understanding you.

You still weren't sure how strong you were. So the move you made today might not turn out for the best if you were weaker than you had initially thought. Jiho did attempt to kill Daniel, the protagonist in the story. He was a coward, through and through. He was the type to act big when he had power and blamed the world for his problems.

"I came here to warn you."

The orb suddenly says in a serious voice, causing you to widen your eyes.

"What?"

"Honestly, we don't really care what the fuck you do. Just make sure the man sealed inside you doesn't get out."

"Huh... How do I even get him out?"

"He comes out when certain words are used."

You blinked slowly and sighed.

"Seriously? What words are those?"

"We're not sure."

"You're kinda useless. You know that?"

"Now I won't tell you anything useful."

"Please?"

"You can use your original name instead of the Russian name, since you're going to Korea undercover."

"..."

"You call that useful?"

Some time had passed, and the story moved on its own.

Everything went to the story so far. To keep up your fake identity, you went ahead and got yourself a part time job at a patisserie.

It was assigned to you by Vasilyev's father. It seems that in Korea, instead of Vasilyev Konstantin, you'd be named M/n.

The patisserie was located at the far back of the neighborhood, not a very appealing place. Though you got weirded out often, shocked to see that characters like Crystal, Johan and Samuel all often frequented to this patisserie.

(★ Will be later mentioned what happened at the patisserie.)
