For as long as you could remember, you wanted Joonghyuk to notice you and your abilities. Whenever you fought alongside him in scenario’s, you’d always try your best to whip out new moves and use hard strikes against enemies with your weapon in hopes that he’d notice.

This time, you’d really messed up. The day prior, you had faced a relatively weak enemy and you readied yourself to use your strength to destroy it in hope of catching his attention, but instead, you let your guard down and got swept away by a measly Grade 3 enemy. You couldn’t be more embarrassed.

“Be careful,”
