How the Guide Escapes the Obsessive Lover

└ If an S-Class goes off, an entire neighborhood can get wiped out.

└ So does that mean the whole Esper Academy is gone??

└ Nah, I live nearby. Nothing seems destroyed, but I did see a bunch of ambulances.

└ So maybe they managed to contain it?

└ Nothing confirmed. People just making stuff up.

└ Why’s that an insult? It’s just short for Joo Seunghyuk Esper. We use {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} Gansper, Dosper, everyone does it.

└ Exactly. We say Suid for Yeonsu too. But only Jusper stans get pissy. Guess they’re sensitive because of all his scandals.

└ What scandals?

└ LMAO Jusper stans have no shame. How many Espers and Guides has he injured by now? He’s only walking free ‘cause he’s S-Class. Anyone else would be in jail.

***

🟧 [Jusper targeted Yeonsu before too. Remember that gate incident two years ago? He got seriously injured while clearing it. Tons of rumors back then that Jusper attacked him.]

└ Jusper stans always act like they work for Seonghan. Threatening lawsuits nonstop.

🟩 [Why are there no follow-up articles?

I saw the report and my hands started shaking. I can't do anything.]

🟨 [Saw a post on a female-dominated forum and I’m seriously shocked.

They’re calling him “Yeonsu-oppa” and “Seunghyuk-oppa” like they’re K-pop idols.

I knew they were popular, but not this popular??]

└ They’re not just popular ‘cause of powers, they’re all insanely good-looking. If you awakened, you'd just be an awakened pig.

└└ Damn, harsh.

└ Not really. Only Geonwoo and Yeonsu fans team up. Jusper stans are hated.

└ Why? Because Yeonsu criticized Seunghyuk when they were younger?

└ That, and apparently Seunghyuk tried to kill him two years ago.

└ Damn. So this was attempt number two?

🟥 [Heard it was during a mock battle drill.

My brother goes to the Esper Academy, and today was their first mock drill.

He said Joo Seunghyuk lost control, and Yeonsu tried to stop him and got hurt.

Apparently it wasn’t an intentional attack.]

└ Yessss way too suspicious

└ 333333

└ 4

└ 5

Here’s her student ID (name and photo censored).

└ Whoa, it’s real.

└ Is Yeonsu seriously hurt?

└ I heard his hands were shredded. Said blood was pouring out even as they loaded him into the ambulance.

└ If his hands are injured, can he even guide anymore??

└ Ah no, I’m crying.

└ What were the others doing? Why did Yeonsu have to stop him?

└ Maybe because he’s the only S-Class Guide?

🟦 [Rumors say it happened during the mock battle.

Joo Seunghyuk went berserk and Yeonsu tried to save him, ended up in critical condition.

People are saying his hand injury is so bad he might not be able to guide even if he wakes up.]

Honestly, looks more like Joo Seunghyuk attacked Yeonsu.

🟫 [S-Class Guide Lee Yeonsu, critically injured while stopping S-Class Esper Joo Seunghyuk’s rampage during mock battle]

🟪 [Did you see the Academy press conference today?

They admitted it happened during a mock battle, just like the rumors.

But anyone who knows the history between Seunghyuk and Yeonsu knows something’s fishy.

Everyone knows Joo Seunghyuk’s a ticking time bomb.

Why put them on the same team?

Maybe Seonghan Group is trying to cover up what really happened.]

He has a future.

🟥 [So Joo Seunghyuk’s gonna get Yeonsu killed?

What the hell.

I wanna kill that bastard.]

🟨 [Even if the Academy’s version is true, I’m disappointed in Yeonsu’s judgment.

From the latest press release and articles, it looks like they were in the same team.

When Seunghyuk started to rampage, the professor tried to get Yeonsu out of there.

But Yeonsu decided to go in and stop him.

There are four S-Class Espers in their twenties, but only one S-Class Guide—Yeonsu.

He should’ve followed orders.]

I think Yeonsu made the right call.

If Seunghyuk went berserk in that building, it would've blown up. Everyone in the school was gathered there.

If it weren’t for Yeonsu, it could’ve been a massacre.

└ It was audio, not video. Just shouting. No visuals.

└ Honestly, Yeonsu’s more valuable than the rest of the students combined.

What, is Park Geonwoo gonna teleport in from Africa? This was the best outcome.

We’re talking location, not age. No one nearby could stop him.

The highest-ranked professor is only A-Class, right?

I don’t think Yeonsu made the wrong call.

└ If Yeonsu hadn’t intervened, Seunghyuk would’ve died. That’s a loss too.

└ If it’s one or the other, saving Yeonsu is the smarter call.

Yeonsu was just brave.

A young Guide took action, and now he’s fighting for his life.

Instead of analyzing his judgment, maybe just hope he recovers.

└ For real. Bunch of posers with loud mouths.

S-rank Esper vs. S-rank Guide

Who do you think is more valuable?

This one’s the Guide. There are far fewer Guides than Espers in the first place.

└ Ju Seunghyeok is also exceptional among S-ranks.

└ There’s also Park Geonwoo, an Esper.

[What if Suyid's hand is injured? Will they still be able to guide?]

└ They must be a fan. Of course, a Guide would be concerned about guiding. That’s why they make money — because they guide Espers for gate raids.

└ Exactly. Must be nice, huh? I wonder if I’d be this calm even if the gate opened and it turned into a disaster. Yeonsu fans treat him like an idol. He’s not a celebrity, he’s an Esper.

└ Yeonsu, Ju Seunghyeok, and Park Geonwoo fans are all over the place.

└ This is crazy. The person’s in critical condition, and people are still talking about fans.

└ They’re just fools who think they’re smart but are utterly lacking in empathy.

[Now there won’t be anyone calling Lee Yeonsu a fox or a coward.]

└ What’s true here? Those who compare and criticize are the problem, not Yeonsu.

└ I see you’re one of those who only focus on criticizing.

└ Espers want Yeonsu as their Guide the most. Why are you complaining if the Espers like him? Are you an Esper?

└ Just because Yeonsu’s abilities are impressive doesn’t mean he has to do anything forced. When people say things like, "Do you want him to force a kiss?" — that’s ridiculous.

└ Exactly. It’s so laughable. There’s no need for intimate guiding. Why are people pushing Suyid to do something they’re not comfortable with? Is it supposed to be harassment?

[Why are there so many haters of Lee Yeonsu?

Has he ever made any major mistakes? Why are people acting like this when someone is hurt?]

└ What’s with the "Ju fans"? It’s probably Park Geonwoo fans.

└ No, it’s Ju fans. They can argue all they want.

└ Lee Yeonsu is more disliked by other Guides than Espers.

└ Stop with that nonsense. When did Yeonsu ever do that?

└ Then why hasn’t he done binding or marking? Isn’t that leading them on?

└ There’s no rule that says they have to. Grow up.

[Lee Yeonsu, still unconscious today...]

[The greed of the current government has caused this disaster.]

I’ve heard that, in addition to Ju Seunghyeok and Lee Yeonsu, an F-rank Guide was also in the same team.

The Esper Academy has been silent since the release of the audio. They haven't clarified exactly why the outburst happened.

In my opinion, the F-rank Guide was likely the cause of the major incident.

It was said to be the first F-rank after the Esper Academy was reorganized, and the government likely planned to push this individual as part of a reform to the rankings system for Espers.

The government had been trying to introduce E-rank as a category for some time, but had failed due to strong opposition from lower-tier Espers.

It was evident that over 60% of D-rank Espers would be demoted to E-rank, and they have been resisting it fiercely. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

So, they likely created an F-rank star, planning to elevate this person’s rank as an excuse to introduce E-rank.

They probably assigned this person to the same team as the S-rank Esper Ju Seunghyeok to push them forward, but it ended up causing a massive incident.

Because of the government’s reckless actions, we’re now losing a valuable S-rank Guide.

└ I agree. E-rank should be created. More than half of D-rank Espers are useless. They have no ability, yet there are so many of them, making unnecessary demands. They're just stealing welfare funds. Just ignore them and make E-rank.

└ If they put them together just because they’re kind, they wouldn’t have put them with Ju Seunghyeok.

[I’m so upset.]

Lee Yeonsu Guide has some injury, and there’s no news on Ju Seunghyeok Esper... The ones who were accusing Ju Seunghyeok of attacking Yeonsu haven’t even apologized.

└ (Original poster) Why?

└ Are you upset that Lee Yeonsu Guide is unconscious and still getting blamed?

└ (Original poster) Can’t I express my frustration? It’s true they’ve been wrongly blamed.

└ What’s wrong? Ju Seunghyeok did attack Lee Yeonsu, didn’t he?

└ (Original poster) Can’t you distinguish between blocking an outburst with guiding and attacking?

└ So if it’s an outburst, does it mean it’s not an attack?

└ Stop fighting. Lee Yeonsu Guide is in this condition because of it, but Ju Seunghyeok Esper is also having a hard time.

└ Ju Seunghyeok wouldn’t do that.

[How upset must Park Geonwoo Esper be? He’s super close to Lee Yeonsu Guide.]

└ What do you mean by that? It’s not like they’re dating, they’re just colleagues worried about each other. Take off your “shipper goggles.”

[I saw on Twitter that Ju Seunghyeok bought all the high-level potions in the item auction. Is it because of Lee Yeonsu’s treatment?]

└ (Original poster) It’s a tweet from an industry insider. It’s credible.

└ He probably bought the potions for Lee Yeonsu.

└ How do you know? He might be buying for himself, or for something at Seonghan.

└ It’s because he hurt him.

└ If he thought about it, wouldn’t Ju Seunghyeok?

└ It’s always like this here. Park Geonwoo fans have taken over.

└ What do you mean by Geonwoo fans? It’s Ju Seunghyeok fans who are clueless.

[I hope people don’t blame Ju Seunghyeok Esper too much.]

The academy also released the video. Even though the professors stopped him, Lee Yeonsu Guide made the decision to guide.

Ju Seunghyeok Esper didn’t want the outburst, it was just that Lee Yeonsu Guide made the choice on his own, so blaming Ju Seunghyeok doesn’t seem like what Yeonsu would want.

└ (Original poster) Sorry, I meant audio. I wrote it wrong.

└ That’s probably classified because it’s S-rank.

└ Yeah, other countries might see it.

└ Even without S-rank, videos of outbursts have rarely been released.

└ What good would it do to release it? It would only stir up more attention. I don’t understand why they keep talking about the video. These people don’t seem to care about Yeonsu Guide at all; they just want to satisfy their curiosity.

└ 2

└ 333333

└ 4

└ 55

└ 6 Yeah, let’s not get swayed.

└ The outburst was inevitable.

[Can we see the reactions of the students at the Esper Academy? Is there any kind of e*ta like there usually is?]

└ Really?

[Lee Yeonsu Guide, 10th day in a coma.]

└ How can they disclose information about S-rank? It’s probably classified.

└ I know. I’m frustrated too.
