At first, Do Yu-jin chose to completely hide her presence.

It had become a habit to walk around with my traits half-activated to avoid causing unnecessary commotion in the circle, so now I felt more comfortable walking around that way than just walking around.

However, I felt a bit bothered and nervous about surprising the sales associates every time I entered a store, so I decided to just control my movements so that my face was only visible blurrily while I was sightseeing.

‘But then, problems like this arise again.’

Do Yu-jin looked at the blond punk who was squirming like an electric grill with eyes filled with emptiness.

Honestly, I thought it was a bit too harsh a punishment for the fearless hunting I did during my reckless teenage years, but I decided to just let it go.

It wasn’t like I was particularly hurt.

Round and round-

“You’re crazy, why don’t you stop hanging around me?”

“… … Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Yeah, thanks to you.”

Thanks to that guy, I was able to get a rough idea of why Erio reacted so excessively.

‘I didn’t realize it because I was always doing housework… … It seems I was being treated more preciously than I expected.’

When Do Yu-jin made a face as if she had discovered something new, something that wasn’t even new.

“Thank goodness.”

Erio let out a sigh of relief as he heard Doyujin’s words.

Do Yu-jin, who saw him, patted Erio’s head to express her gratitude.

After all the fighting, the two of them retreated into their own space.

“Profit!!!”

Unfortunately, things weren’t over yet.

“You, you kids! What are you guys doing!”

No, to be exact, it was almost over when one of the remaining thugs, who was incredibly clueless, reignited the incident.

“How dare you… …! Do you think you can get away with this?! I don’t know what kind of guys you are, but as soon as our hyungs come, you guys will be finished in no time… …!”

When Erio heard those words, as if he had never seen such a relaxed expression, he immediately turned his head and stared at the thug who had spoken.

At that moment, with that expressionless face, he was about to spit out the same eerie glare as before.

Swish-

“Stop.”

Do Yu-jin said that and stopped Erio.

“Eugene?”

Erio, whose eyes were covered by Do Yu-jin’s hands as if he was being played peek-a-boo, spoke with a bit of bewilderment and wonder.

While Erio was being forcibly calmed down, unable to escape his embrace, Do Yu-jin looked at the remaining gangsters and said.

“Hey, you guys.”

“Huh? What are you?”

Perhaps because they judged that there was no reason to be afraid if it was Doyujin and not Erio, the guys distorted their faces as if they had never been gentle lambs and answered in a threatening voice.

It looks like he’s blatantly trying to start a fight.

“I’m just a guy like you guys, so I don’t plan on getting that mad because I saw a pretty girl on the street and started talking to her to try to get her to come see me?”

But unfortunately for them, Do Yu-jin had no such intentions.

“But it’s not good manners to keep attacking someone when they say they don’t like you.”

Do Yu-jin spoke in a friendly yet businesslike tone, as if she was talking to a troublesome child.

“He doesn’t seem interested in you guys, so why don’t you just go back now?”

If they had just listened to this and backed off, it would have been better for both of them.

Do Yu-jin would have been comfortable and they wouldn’t have suffered unnecessary injuries.

but……

“Ha! This kid!”

“What the heck, you! Are you trying to act cocky just because there’s a girl next to you?”

They raised their voices in indignation at the thought of something pointless, as if to say that there was a reason they were friends with the blond punk a moment ago.

“You seem to be thinking that you are something. If we put our minds to it, we can take down someone like you in an instant… … ”

Looking at him, Do Yu-jin let out a faint sigh and quietly prepared.

If it was impossible to calm them down with words, then there was no choice but to calm them down with actions.

Of course, I wasn’t saying that I was going to fight them.

Because Do Yu-jin’s body was far from fighting.

‘Well, if I take out all the cards I’m hiding, it’ll be a different story, but with Erio right next to me, I can’t just take out something that could be a link to the ‘ghost’.’

Well, even so, there was no problem.

A light performance would have been enough to silence them to this extent.

Swish-

Do Yu-jin lightly reached out and placed a cold metal fan against the guy’s neck.

An extremely frivolous action that is merely covert and has no lethality at all.

“Hi, Eek!”

However, Do Yu-jin’s actions scared the guy and he just kept his mouth shut.

Because I mistook the pen for a knife, I felt a sharp knife touch my neck without even realizing it.

Do Yu-jin quietly rolled his head as he watched the group of thugs looking at him fill with fear.

‘I think this should be enough… … But wouldn’t it be better to take care of it for sure first?’

The moment I made up my mind.

Ss …

Do Yu-jin gradually released the momentum she had been hiding through [The One Who Walks Through the Transparent World (5★)].

at the same time.

Click-

I changed one of the characteristics to [Young Murderer (5★)] and shot murder at them.

An overwhelming killing intent, as if shooting at prey rather than enemies.

To him they were speechless and trembled.

“?”

On the other hand, Ereo, who was in Do Yu-jin’s arms with his eyes covered with one hand, was completely unaware of the situation and just tilted his head.

That’s because Do Yu-jin was shooting murderous intent at them through [Still Young Murder (5★)], while at the same time selecting and cleanly erasing the murderous intent going to Erio through [The One Who Walks the Transparent World (5★)].

‘It’s going better than I thought.’

This was Do Yu-jin’s first time trying to utilize two characteristics in such a way, but it wasn’t as difficult as expected.

When Do Yu-jin was so amazed.

“Ah, euaaa… … ”

They had lost all of their initial rough and tumble appearance and were shivering all over, looking like rats soaked in cold sweat.

‘Is it okay to let go now?’

The moment he was about to stop shooting out his will to live, a question popped into Do Yu-jin’s head.

‘Now that I think about it, could this life energy be amplified?’

It’s like erasing unnecessary parts and highlighting only the parts you want to reveal.

As if pouring water through a very small hole, not the size of a palm.

Do Yu-jin already knew that if you use [The One Who Walks Through the Transparent World (5★)] well, you can amplify the sound rather than just disappear it.

In fact, I had already used it in that way once during a group fight with Darcy.

‘Of course, I never really did anything that stood out in the circle, but now… … ‘

Toouk-

That was the moment when Do Yu-jin lightly intertwined her two characteristics.

“Ah, ahh… … ”

They suddenly began to shake violently all over their bodies as if some important part inside them had broken down.

Even in that state, their eyes were all fixed on Do Yu-jin.

The only thing visible on a face as hazy as fog is the eyes.

Because those eyes, which resembled black pearls or the pits of a cliff, were looking down at them as if they would crush them, growing in presence.

‘Pah, I’m getting sucked in… … No. I’m getting eaten!’

The moment that image was stuck in their heads.

“Cough!”

The thugs, who were shaking as if they were having epilepsy, eventually passed out, foaming at the mouth.

“Whoa! What the!”

“Someone fell down!”

People who saw that sight let out a belated scream.

Because Do Yu-jin took them out of the range of use of her special traits, their appearances were revealed to the eyes of ordinary people.

“Why are you suddenly like that?”

“Well… … ”

Do Yu-jin turned her head slightly and answered Erio’s question, who was finally able to see the world.

‘Was it too much… … ‘

Since he is in a position where it is difficult to exert effort normally, he seemed a little excited by the opportunity that came.

While Do Yu-jin was acting like that, the other guests around her were stamping their feet and shouting.

Fortunately, their commotion helped, and the situation was quickly resolved.

“Oh my! What the heck!”

The train attendant, who had heard the commotion, carried out the thugs who had fallen on the floor.

When Do Yu-jin was lightly reflecting while looking at that scene.

dump-

Erio sat on Doyujin’s lap instead of his own and looked at him.

In fact, Doyujin didn’t really care because Erio sitting on her lap was almost a daily occurrence.

But this time, for some reason, I was curious about Erio’s eyes, so I glanced at her and she opened her mouth slightly.

“Hey, Eugene.”

“Why are you calling?”

“Am I pretty?”
