UNJUST ARREST

[Let's rewind a bit before Noh Yuno's arrest…]

YUNO was greeted by the familiar ceiling as soon as he opened his eyes.

He was back in his room.

Oh, I survived.

Yuno touched his neck, and then he let out a sigh of relief. "I wasn't buried in concrete, thank goodness."

"Are you traumatized after getting buried in the ground?"

Ah.

Yuno immediately got up when he heard the familiar voice, and then he quickly got into a kneeling position.

The fact that his body wasn't aching despite his abrupt movement must mean he was healed. Not that he was physically injured. He was just used to waking up as if he was run over by a truck after Guiding an Esper.

"Hello, Sajangnim1."

It wasn't surprising that his boss had access to his apartment.

After all, Yuno lived in the apartment above the HoneyMoon Convenience Store.

For free because the esteemed gentleman we have here is generous to his employees.

The man standing before Yuno was Moon Noa— the CEO of a small company called HoneyMoon Pharmaceuticals.

And, yes again, they were originally a pharmaceutical company before it expanded.

Now they also had a convenience store.

That's where I work.

But the "main branch" of their company was the HoneyMoon Pharmacy.

It was personally managed by their CEO, Moon Nona, because the pharmacy sold special grade aphrodisiacs and other medicines for Awakened People that one couldn't simply buy over-the-counter.

See?

HoneyMoon isn't an adult shop!

"Yuyu, I told you to just call me 'hyung' or hyung-nim— anything but 'Sajangnim.'"

"Sajangnim, please have a conscience. A man your age should be addressed as 'Ahjussi' and not 'Hyung.'"

"Hey, forty isn't that old! And you're twenty-five-years old. Fifteen years isn't that big of an age gap."

"Sajangnim, there's no shame in aging since everyone grows old everyday anyway."

"Pfft."

What?

Yuno knitted his eyebrows when Moon Noa clutched his stomach while laughing.

Did I say anything funny?

He wasn't sure, but he just treated himself to Moon Noa's visuals.

I teased our dear CEO for being "old," but he actually didn't look his age. He could still pass off as someone in his late twenties. Aside from genetics, Sajangnim uses some of our company's beauty products like the HoneyMoon Face Sheets, HoneyMoon Serum, and HoneyMoon Sunscreen to protect his skin.

And those products obviously worked since their forty-year-old CEO looked youthful.

No wonder Moon Noa also worked as their beauty brand's endorser/ambassador.

Well, Sajangnim is beautiful.

Blond, silky hair that reached his shoulders.

Pretty blue eyes.

Good body proportions.

Moreover, Moon Noa's visual was the "prince type" and Yuno firmly believed it was the reason his boss could pull off a bright yellow suit without looking like a bottle of mustard. Sajangnim still looked majestic in that fit.

Sajangnim only wears yellow suits— in different shades— and still exudes elegance.

"Yuyu, are you done admiring my beauty?"

"Instead of Sajangnim's beauty, I'm admiring your guts," Yuno said approvingly, giving his boss a thumbs up. "Sajangnim is the only active Guide in the country who's not required by the government to wear the official uniform."

All active Guides under the National Guide Bureau were required to wear their famous cool and chic white uniform when on duty.

Except for Moon Noa.

"Well, the government should at least give me this much freedom," Moon Noa said proudly while crossing his arms over his chest. "I'm South Korea's #1 Guide, after all."

"Sajangnim, that title officially belongs to Guide Bambi, awarded by the government itself."

"Only because Bambam indulges them."

"Sajangnim, you should seriously stop giving people weird pet names," Yuno said, shuddering at the thought that his boss was bold enough to give their country's #1 Guide (officially) a childish pet name. "Don't tell me you also gave Esper Ki Gayoon-ssi a nickname?!"

Moon Noa's face beamed. "What do you think?"

Yuno covered his mouth with his hands when he gasped. "Sajangnim, do you call that grumpy old man 'Gaga?' Or is it 'Yoonyoon?' Either way, I'm amazed that you're still alive after giving Esper Ki Gayoon a childish pet name!"

"I'm still alive because I didn't— I just call him by his name or a 'wild beast' sometimes," Sajangnim said while waving his hand casually. "Even a carefree person like me knows when to exercise caution. I'm not like you, Yuyu."

"Excuse me, Sajangnim? Why are you suddenly roasting me?"

"You called Esper Ki Gayoon 'Ahjussi' and 'old man' several times when the poor lad is only thirty years old."

"Oh."

"But I'm glad you give everyone older than you by five years the same treatment."

"What treatment?"

"Like we're super old and about to croak already."

"…"

Is that why Sajangnim laughed earlier?

Anyways, that wasn't important.

"Sajangnim, I made several mistakes last night. First, I performed Forced Guiding on Esper Ki Gayoon when he was about to snap," Yuno confessed to his boss. "Second, I was forced to reveal that I'm an E-Class Guide. He was so scary that I felt compelled to answer his questions even though I was usually tight-lipped."

"Right. I took you under my wing because you can keep secrets."

"I'm sorry, sir."

"Did you say you were compelled to answer Esper Ki Gayoon's questions?"

Yuno nodded. "He was scary, Sajangnim."

"Hmm. Interesting~"

"It's interesting that I almost got buried alive, Sajangnim?"

"Yuyu, I already talked to Rinrin."

Did my boss just ignore my question?

Anyway, 'Rinrin' would be Lee Haerin— the manager of the convenience store in charge of the night shifts.

"She already found a temporary part-timer as your proxy while you rest."

"Thank you, sir. And I'm sorry for the inconvenience."

"Make sure to contact Rinrin later."

"Of course, sir. I'll call Manager Lee later," Yuno said, and then he remembered something important that he needed to do while he had free time. "Sajangnim, I need to report to the National Guide Bureau since I performed Forced Guiding on Esper Ki Gayoon. And I'll use that chance to reach out to Esper Ki Gayoon. He's scary, but I need to check on him."

Actually, I just want to remind Esper Ki Gayoon that I'm still willing to stand as a witness once he finds the courage to report Guide Bambi.

"Ah, don't worry about that, Yuyu. I already talked to Esper Ki Gayoon so he won't bother you again," Moon Noa said cheerfully while giving Yuno a confident double thumbs up. "And I'll report what happened to the National Guide Bureau myself so you won't get in trouble."

 

***

YEAH, that's what my boss said.

So, color Yuno surprised when agents from the Awakened Police Department (APD) came rushing in while he was in the middle of restocking their best-selling HoneyMoon Condom.

"Noh Yuno, you're under arrest for hiding your existence as a Guide!"

The hell?

Yuno let out a long sigh. "If you're going to arrest me, at least do it after my shift."

Oops.

He voiced out his inner thoughts again.

No wonder the APD agents— dressed in cool navy blue uniforms with APD's golden emblem— looked shocked and offended.

They're called 'agents' and not 'police officers' because the Awakened Police Department is a branch of the police department that only accepts F-Class and D-Class Espers. They're the two lowest classes among the Espers, and they're not really suitable for entering dungeons.

That was why most F-Class and D-Class Espers were either working in the government or the security industry.

"What did you say, Noh Yuno?"

Seriously?

Just his name without honorifics?

They're talking down to me just because I'm obviously younger than them.

"I'm officially registered as a Guide, and I have my identification card with me, sir," Yuno said calmly, putting his hands together out of politeness. "I also have the necessary documents that explain why I'm not directly working at the National Guide Bureau."

The agents looked surprised that he talked back.

Except for the one who seemed like the captain or whatever.

"We need to verify if the ID and documents you're talking about are authentic or not," the Esper who looked like the most senior agent there said in a calm yet slightly arrogant voice. "Come with us."

Yuno was about to say "yes, sir" politely because there was no use fighting the authorities when he knew he was innocent anyway.

But he heard what the senior agent said to his men.

"That kid is too arrogant for a walking sex toy."

Of course, the scumbags laughed and found the insult funny.

A "walking sex toy."

That's how small-minded and twisted Espers and Civilians see Guides.

Oh, well.

Since Yuno was already going to "prison" for false accusations, might as well give these bastards an actual reason to arrest him.

So, he grabbed the biggest dildo in the display area.

"This is a sex toy, sir," Yuno said, and then he slapped the senior agent across the face with the big dildo— leaving the victim and the other agents in shock. "Now this is what I call a "slapping sex toy."" He smirked when he saw the red mark that the dildo left on the senior agent's cheek. "Funny, right?"

 

***

"AHJUSSI."

Fuck.

Ki Gayoon couldn't get that little shit out of his head.

Noh Yuno, is it?

Gayoon, standing under the shower, looked at his hands.

That damned E-Class Guide only touched his pinky (with a disgusted look on his face, at that!) and yet he already felt refreshed.

Ever since his Madness had taken over half of his sanity, he had never gotten rid of the feeling that he was drowning. However, when he held Noh Yuno in his arms, he felt like he could finally breathe again.

It was something that he hadn't felt in eternity.

Suddenly, his head was clear.

And now that he could think clearly…

I want to experience that feeling again.

Gayoon wanted to hold Noh Yuno in his arms again…

… no!

What the fuck?

"Why would I want that to hold that foul-mouthed punk in my arms again?" Gayoon condemned himself for having stupid thoughts. "Even though that little shit smells nice and feels soft for a man…"

He trailed off when he felt something strange.

An erection.

Gayoon got hard while remembering how nice Noh Yuno smelled, and how his small frame fit perfectly in his arms.

Dammit!

Whether he wanted to admit it or not, his body was craving that little shit's Guiding.

"This is all your fault, Moon Noa," Gayoon said, closing his eyes tight. "Why did you have to say some weird shit?"

Ki Gayoon still remembered what Moon Noa said to him that night…

["Don't you want an Exclusive Guide who'll die for you and not for the government?"]
