Working on That S-Level Guide

Tae Ijae is the only SS-class Esper in the Ability Center , and he absolutely detests guiding.

To obtain the “Siren’s Tear,” an item that allows self-guiding and suppresses rampages, he must win over Kang Junwoo, the impenetrable ice prince of the first division, who accepts no Esper exclusively.

“I want to be your exclusive Esper. I said it from the start.”

“Tae Ijae Esper, do you perhaps like me?”

“Oh, do I have to like you for you to do it? Then sure, I like you.”

“Are you joking?”

“No. I’m annoyingly serious. So tell me, What do I need to do to become your exclusive Esper?”

A battle of spear and shield! Or is it spear against spear? Will this conquest succeed?

Excerpt from the Book

“…Um, by the way.”

“What?”

“Why do you keep speaking informally? I’m a year older than you, Tae Ijae Esper.”

“Yeah, I’m a year younger than you. Nice to meet you?”

“Pardon…?”

“I said nice to meet you. Weren’t we supposed to greet each other again?”

“No. I was asking why you’re speaking informally.”

“You do it too.”

“Pardon?”

“Do you usually not understand things when they’re said once? Are you the type to ask repeatedly? It annoys me to say the same thing twice.”

“More than I thought…”

Kang Junwoo sighed briefly and continued.

“You really have no manners.”

“More than you thought? When did you think about me? You should’ve told me earlier; our exclusive partnership might have been much easier.”

“Pardon? No, I just thought you were a bit annoying just now…”

“Oh, thank you. I like you too.”

Is this guy crazy?

Kang Junwoo glared at Tae Ijae with a face full of disbelief.
