Chapter 73 - Cordially [2]

Moon Jiwoo's eyes narrowed at the two man standing before her, and both of her lips curved into a thin line. Both of them were dressed in black from head to toe.

"We need to transport out of here," Jiwoo vocalised.

Oh Sookyung nodded.

For Oh Sookyung, who bȧrėly had any training, transporting was not possible, and when it came to Moon Jiwoo, although she had not ever done it practically, she was taught on how it was done.

Moon Jiwoo recalled Hyungwon's words on how she will be able to transport if her willpower is strong enough. All she had to go was visualise the place she wanted to go at inside her mind and try to go there.

Even if the first part was crystal clear to her, the second part was where she had difficulty comprehending. How will she be trying to there?

"Let's do this then," Jiwoo said, reaching out to hold Sookyung's wrist.

Closing her eyes, she attempted to visualize the place she will be heading to. On the alley because this restaurant seemed like a proper place, and she tried to concentrate on transporting there.

But Moon Jiwoo was not able to do it fast enough. One of the men jumped forward with his claws extended and attempted to attack Moon Jiwoo. Crossing her hands before her, Jiwoo prevented the man from attacking her face, causing her to lose her grip on Sookyung's hand.

Raising her leg, Moon Jiwoo kicked on the shin of the man, and that's when, the footsteps approaching the room caught her attention. 

Her eyes widened, and hearing the worried voices of the people outside, she knew that she had to deal with this fast.

The impact of her kick sent the man flying away as his back crashed against the wall, creating a slight crack against it. She turned her head to face Sookyung and saw that he was struggling with the man before him.

Seeing how that man had gripped on to Sookyung's wrist, Jiwoo extended her hand towards him and shoot one of her electric balls. The attack caused a jolt of electricity to pass over that man's body, and in a matter of second, the man's body collapsed on the ground.

Meanwhile, the other man came towards Moon Jiwoo, and taking out his dagger, he was about to attack her from the back.

But that movement of his was noticed by Oh Sookyung. Moving his hands upwards, he instantly grabbed the hand of the man who was holding the dagger.

Turning her hand back, she shot an electric ball at his stomach, and his body flew towards the wall immediately at that. 

Knowing how that there were bȧrėly any time left in her hand, she grabbed on to Sookyung's wrist and pulled her over to the broken window. Staring down at it, she wondered whether or not it would be safe for them to jump.

"Don't even think about it. It would be too dangerous and stupid," Sookyung vocalised.

Noticing the crowd which had gathered below, Moon Jiwoo understood his words and nodded her head. There were no option for both of them other than to transport, but there was not enough time for it.

When Jiwoo closed her eyes, she could hear the man taking a step closer towards the door, bad hearing the distinct breathing of the people our, her heart started to beat rapidly within her ċhėst.

Panic began to rise within her while sweat formed on her face, and Jiwoo was at a loss of idea on what to do. Any second now the door was going to be opened, and the situation in front of them will be too complicated to handle.

"It will be fine, Moon Jiwoo. Calm down, and I know that you will be able to do it," Sookyung whispered to her.

The door to the room opened, and three man walked into the room. Their eyes widened when they noticed the bright light flash before them, and two figures disappeared into that light.

They gaped at the scene, unable to figure out what had happened, and that was when their eyes fell on the two men who laid on the ground. 

°°°

A loud scream escaped from Moon Jiwoo's mouth as she fell on the ground, and her back hit the wall behind her. Opening her eyes, she noticed that she was at a dark alleyway.

Noticing where she was seated upon, Jiwoo's eyes widened, and pressing her hands upon the ground, she immediately stood up. Her eyes widened at how dirty her clothing must have been gotten.

A foul stench was present in the alleyway causing her to scrunch up her nose, and looking around, she tried to search for signs of Sookyung. However, it seemed that he was not present around her, and her eyes widened at that.

Could it be that only she had transported while he remained at that room?

The enjoyment she felt from being able to transport was instantly drowned by that, and worry began to rise within Jiwoo. If that was to be the case, then things would turn terrible.

Pursing both of her lips into a thin line, she reached into her pocket and took out her phone with the intention of calling Sookyung. Before taking any other decision, this would be the best thing to do.

Couple of seconds had passed before the call was received by him, and a small smile formed on her face at that. It seemed that he was well, seeing how he received the call.

"Yah! Shin Daerin, were you trying to kill me!?" he yelled.

His loud voice caused her to be startled for a second, and her eyes widened as she retorted, "Yah! What are you yelling at me for?"

"Shin Daerin, you transported me in front of a running truck, and if it was not for my fast response, I would have been dead. Fuck! The people around me were looking so startled, and it was a weird situation!" he exclaimed.

"Oh! That's a great situation! I am so proud of myself. Any way, where are you at? Those men will be coming after you again, so take care of yourself before I appear upon that place."

"Hmm! I am in front of the restaurant at the—"

Before Oh Sookyung was able to continue, his voice came out to be muffled, and his words were no longer continued.

Panic went through Moon Jiwoo at that, and staring at the screen of the phone, she realized that the phone was still ongoing.

"Hello! Oh Sookyung! You there, thief? Hello!"

Could it be that he had been taken away by those man?

The thought of that made Moon Jiwoo anxious, and pressing her lips into a thin line, she tapped the ground with her foot.

'In front of the restaurant— let's look at there first. Oh Sookyung, wherever you are, just be fine! If you dare to get kidnapped, You bastard, I will be slaughtering you alive.'

°°°

Standing in front of the restaurant, she looked around for the signs of Oh Sookyung, but she could not get any. The place appeared quite crowded, and she did not understand how he was able to be kidnapped at such a bustling place.

Maybe those people had skills she was not aware of.

Frustrations began to rise within Moon Jiwoo, and she did not understand what to do at this moment. The rational side of her mind was slowly decreasing, and Jiwoo was incapable of thinking properly when she was under pressure.

That was when, something had caught Moon Jiwoo's attention. A dark object laid on top of the ground, and narrowing her eyes at that, she made her way to that.

After she had moved over to it, Moon Jiwoo bent down to pick up the phone, and staring at it, she realized that it had belonged to Sookyung.

Han Minhyun's name flashed in her mind in that moment, and she wondered whether or not to call him. He had informed her to call him if she was in need of any help, and this seemed to be such a situation.

Although Moon Jiwoo should be blaming herself for the situation, she was not able to entirely do that. She put in her best effort into trying to transport out of there, and it was not her fault that she was lacking.

Taking out her phone, she was about to dial Han Minhyun's number when a voice reached her ear.

"Oh! You are here."
