Chapter 8: Unexpected Companionship

As Jin-su continued his journey, he found himself being followed by Min-Ji. She was persistent, following him around like a lost puppy, eager to learn and to help. Jin-su was annoyed at first but eventually gave in and let her tag along, seeing her as a useful tool for his own plans.

They traveled together, battling monsters and exploring dungeons. Min-Ji proved to be a valuable companion, her healing abilities saving Jin-su more than once.

During one of their rest times, Min-Ji asked Jin-su, "Why are you so indifferent? Don't you feel anything?" Jin-su simply looked at her, his eyes empty. "I feel what I need to feel," he said, leaving Min-Ji to ponder his words.

As they journeyed together, an unexpected bond formed between them. They were a team, a strange and dysfunctional one, but a team nonetheless.
