120 Episode 23 - Abandoned World (5)

There were exactly five grooves in the crystal. Yoo Jonghyuk and I were well aware of what to place there.

Yoo Jonghyuk stood next to me and said, "You came."

"Yes. Unfortunately."

"It doesn't matter if you sit this one out." I turned towards Yoo Jonghyuk at the unexpected words. This guy was still talking without looking at me. "You have a woman you love."

"...What?"

"It'll be hard."

It felt like I understood something that couldn't be resolved. Perhaps he didn't want to take me to the scenario out of care towards me? It was ridiculous. Yoo Jonghyuk?

"It could be the last time."

I shook my head. It wasn't necessarily impossible when I thought about it. Yoo Jonghyuk had lost Lee Seolhwa in the second regression. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Yoo Jonghyuk was arguably the world's greatest authority when it came to losing a loved one.

I told him, "It's not like that. Do you think my face is full of love?"
