"Oh, why do you look so shocked, Kim Soo-Min? You might be racking your brain right now, wondering how I knew your name so easily," I teased her further, loosening my grip a little. I had to be careful not to accidentally kill her.
"W-Who are you?" she asked, struggling to take in some air.
"I'm just a guy minding his own business, but you messed with the wrong person. Right now, I'm doing my best to stop myself from not ripping your head off, so you better watch your mouth," I warned her with a menacing chuckle.
She felt more and more afraid as my words sank in. Perhaps, she had thought she was untouchable, but facing the possibility of death made her more tamed.
"Do you think your boyfriend will come here if I kill you?" I asked her, my face twisted into a creepy smile. The burn marks on my face probably didn't help make her feel at ease. This situation certainly wasn't winning any awards for a pleasant conversation.
"N-No please don't. He doesn't really care about me!" She pleaded for mercy. Horror painted her expression, realizing that I was dead serious about killing her right now.
"Are you sure? How about calling him here?" I suggested. I wanted to resolve this situation quickly and be done with it.
Dealing with Cerebrum was one thing, but an organization willing to burn a building just to make a point was far more unpredictable. And I hated surprises.
"I-I..." she stuttered, clearly having second thoughts. After witnessing my ability to control space, her faith in her boyfriend's abilities probably crumbled. I mean, fire would look like child's play compared to the power of space.
My ability to teleport things has its own set of limitations, but she doesn't know that. Right now, she must think I can do to her boyfriend what I did to her.
"You know what, I like you too. How about this. Because I like you, I'll make it quick and painless," I chuckled, my tone taking on a sinister tone as I once again tightened my hold on her neck.
She began squirming, saliva dripping from her mouth as her eyes darted upward. She looked in pain right now, and the lack of oxygen in her brain was slowly causing her to lose consciousness.
But before she totally succumbed, I intentionally loosened my grip so she could gasp for some air again.
It would be too boring to just let her die like this. Besides, I think I could use her first before disregarding her. If she satisfies me, then I might just end up keeping her, just because I feel it was a waste to kill such a beauty.
"Your boyfriend is late. Are you sure he really loves you?" I asked again, a hint of contempt in my tone. I had been waiting for someone to come to her rescue, but so far, there was no sign at all.
I released my grip on her neck and just locked her on the air.
"He won't come," she answered, taking a moment to catch her breath.
"Why do you think that?" I inquired, curious about her reasoning.
"He won't risk fighting you after knowing that you were able to catch me," she admitted.
"Oh, why is that? I mean, you're pretty easy to catch," I taunted.
"Easy for you. But I have the ability to avoid detections. I could erase my presence completely, but it doesn't seem to work on you," she explained, revealing a bit about her abilities.

She looked really dejected, realizing that the power she relied on for survival was actually useless against me.
I was able to use my Mind Eye on her once I saw her real body. So, my system might have been the reason why I was able to spot her with ease.
"So, he won't come?" I asked again.
"No," She shook her head.
"You're useless. Don't blame me for being merciless. You brought this on yourself," I said, shaking my head in disappointment.
"AHHHHH! PLEASE STOP...I-- IT HURTS... YOU'RE BREAKING ME!" she screamed in pain, her voice filled my ears as I slowly increase the intensity of my Telekinesis.
