Seeing the reaction on the internet, Yeorum’s expression crumpled.
“…Did they all go crazy?”
[Q. There are lots of people looking for Cadet Yeorum all of a sudden. How does it feel?]
[Yu Yeorum: Feels pretty shit.]

[Q. Cadet Yeorum. The name of the fancafe has been decided to be ‘People crazy for Yeorum.’ Is it to your liking?]
[Yu Yeorum: I don’t care. You crazy lunatics.]

[Q. Cadet Yeorum. Among the fans that really love you, there are people that want to get swore at. If it’s okay, can you swear at them just once?]
[Yu Yeorum: (Walks away)]
– Oi you retarded reporter. Of course she would run with that question. Fuck. Return Yeorum for us!
– I’ll swear at the reporter instead. —-Fucking stupid, seriously.
– Where are you going Yeorum T.T Swear at me please…
– Insult me. Quickly call me a damn pig. T.T
Seeing the article, Yeorum’s eyebrows flinched.
She couldn’t understand the internet culture.

Today’s dinner menu was a delivery from a Chinese restaurant.
The dark black bean noodle was Kaeul’s, and the spicy noodle soup was Yeorum’s. Two plates of fried rice and a dish of sweet and sour pork was placed in front of Yu Jitae and Bom.
Putting a spoonful into her mouth, Kaeul munched it with admiration while Bom spoon-fed Gyeoul, who was sitting on her lap. The small mouth could be seen chewing on the food.
“Yeorum. How about you just go back and forth from the house to the academy district for the time being?”
Bom said.
“Isn’t it good if there are lots of people looking for you!? I heard from somewhere, but the superhumans eat off of popularity apparently?”
That was from Kaeul.
Until then, Yeorum didn’t say anything. While mixing the soup and the noodles a little, she opened her mouth with a frown.
“It’s damn annoying. I don’t even care how they think of me but I just find it annoying to have my path blocked.”
It was her honest complaint.
“Plus I spoke blunt, and them liking that is also annoying! Like, why on earth would you like that? I’m swearing to make them feel shit though? Do they feel good to get swore at? They are seriously crazy.”
As Yeorum trembled in anger, Kaeul let out a chuckle. But after receiving a glance from her, she forcibly made a smile.
“Then how about you follow her when she goes to play around, ahjussi?”
Yu Jitae nodded in response to Bom’s words.
In fact, today, he started forcing back the reporters who approached Yeorum. Until now, he hadn’t interfered because it was something for Yeorum to solve on her own, but after seeing the reporters gather every single day over the past few days, his thoughts had changed.
They had crossed the line.
“By the way.”
That was when Yeorum talked to Yu Jitae.
“That thing – how did you do it?”
“What do you mean, that thing.”
“That, you know. When you glared at the reporters, they all deliberately opened up a path right?”
Yeorum thought of what happened during the day today.
After the end of the lesson on the way back from the academy district, she had gone to the commercial district in order to buy something and had faced the reporters. Yu Jitae, who would usually stay back with his hands behind his back, stood in front of her today.
He then stared at the reporters.
That was when something mysterious happened. The reporters that had been walking up all stopped their feet at the same time. As if they were staring at a terrifying beast, some of them lost balance and fell on their bums.
“It was you that threatened them right?”
“It wasn’t a threat.”
“Then?”
“They were annoying, so I did think that they were a bit irritating.”
Back then when Yu Jitae took a step forward, the reporters naturally formed a path like the red sea being divided.
Thinking back on that, light flickered in Yeorum’s eyes.
“That, was pretty sick. You didn’t say anything and yet the reporters were scared stiff right? Those retards.”
“Really?”
“Well, that’s a must for someone that’s my guardian.”
“…”
“So you know, can you teach me that?”
“What?”
“That, gaze attack. If I learn that, wouldn’t I be able to chase all the reporters away?”
A gaze attack?
“Hnn? Teach me please.”
“It’s nothing that great.”
“How did you do it though? There should still be a method right.”
“I looked into their eyes.”
“And?”
He hesitated on the answer.
Killing intent was a weapon which the Regressor sharpened over the six regressions. Facing the reporters that blocked his path, he thought of killing them.
Of course, there was no reason for him to tell her everything.
“…I thought, I want to punch them.”
“That’s all?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm.”
Placing the chopsticks down, she threw her glance over to Yu Jitae. Then, she glared at him with the sinister gaze – the symbol of the red race.
“How is it? Is it frightening?”
“Who knows.”
“It’s not?”
For Yu Jitae, it wasn’t scary at all.
Then, she started glaring at Bom and Kaeul with the same expression. Although they could definitely feel that it was an unpleasant gaze, it wasn’t particularly scary as there wasn’t any killing intent behind it.
“Not scary? Yu Kaeul.”
“Nn? Nn. It is scary but…”
“Hmm, damn it. Then you try it. I don’t get scared easily anyways. So just think of wanting to hit me.”
“Whatever. Just eat your meal.”
“Why? I’m going to go to the entertainment district a lot from now as well and you can’t follow me every single time right? You have stuff to do so just do it once. I’ll remember that gaze perfectly.”
It did make sense.
Being a dragon, perhaps she might be able to imitate it perfectly after seeing it once. Persuaded, Yu Jitae placed the spoon down on the table.
Seeing that, Bom blocked Gyeoul’s eyes.
“…”
As a strange sense of tension filled the dining table,
Yu Jitae looked into Yeorum’s eyes. It was the same hazy gaze as before.
‘What, it’s nothing much,’ thought Yeorum but it was then.
In an instant, the air suddenly felt heavy.
Sound began dying away. As she was about to lose her mind to that hazy gaze of his, the surrounding scenery was pushed away to the side.
Then, Yeorum felt a suffocating feeling.
As if the eyes of a large beast was right before her, Yu Jitae’s gaze had a fierce strength within. With a gulp, she subconsciously swallowed saliva.
That was when Yu Jitae retrieved his gaze.
“Was that enough?”
“…Yeah, that was awesome. I almost pissed my pants.”
She excitedly stared at Yu Jitae.
“Just then, you thought of hitting me right?”
“Similar.”
“I got it.”
As if she came to an understanding, Yeorum gave a faint smile.

Before long, an opportunity arrived before her.
Yeorum wore a cap and a pair of sunglasses while walking around, but couldn’t hide her red hair. When she was leaving the cinemas, reporters who knew that Yeorum would frequently appear in the entertainment district that had been lying in wait, walked up to her.
As always, random questions befell her. Most of the questions were about Yeorum’s previous way of speech and attitude while there were occasionally some questions about the fans.
“Cadet Yu Yeorum! This is a live recording! Please look this way once!”
Among those, there was also a youtuber.
Today also happened to be a day without Yu Jitae following behind.
Heaving out a sigh in irritation, Yeorum took her sunglasses off. She then glared at the reporters just like how she had learnt from Yu Jitae. Closing her eyes, Yeorum thought of Yu Jitae’s gaze from the day before and was certain that she could imitate it to a certain extent.
These bastards. I wanna punch them so bad.
She faced the reporters with that resolve embedded within her gaze. Then, something strange happened – the reporters started sweating in nervousness.
Although Yeorum didn’t know, that was a situation based on [Fear] of the dragons. The gaze filled with rage of a higher level of existence caused an instinctive fear to rise within them.
After seeing what happened, she walked past them in satisfaction. She then stared at the youtuber who was in the middle of a live session.
“Hey you mister. Did you say it was a live recording?”
“Ah, ah… yes! Right now, there are lots of your fans present, Cadet Yeorum.”
The youtuber glanced at the comment section of the video. After Yeorum took a step closer in, there was an explosive reaction from the comments.
– Wow holy shit. She’s suuper pretty.
– Her hair is so red.
– Yeorum T.T
– Wow shit. Talk to her a bit more.
– Tell her to swear at you.
The youtuber was about to open his mouth, but Yeorum stopped him before he could.
“I’m not interested in something like that. More importantly, you know the movie Daystar, right?”
“Ah, yes…! Of course.”
He quickly got rid of his nervousness and forced a smile. Daystar was currently the top trending movie and it was presumed to easily reach ten million views in just Korea as well.
But why was she suddenly talking about that…?
“The protagonist’s sister is the final villain.”
– ?
– ?
– Ah fk I didn’t watch it yet.
– ?
– I was gonna watch it today;;;
– Oi this is a bit—
“Ah, umm… I, I see.”
“And also, the protagonist of the series dies.”
“Ah, ah…!”
“The girl he thought of as a girlfriend was actually an underling of the villain…”
After firmly sharing all the spoilers she could about the most popular movie, she turned around.
She felt refreshed.
‘After doing this much, they won’t follow anymore right?’

But Yeorum’s thoughts were off the mark yet again.
[Today’s superhuman! Yu Yeorum.]
That night, articles started coming up on the internet. Although Dragon Fear was terrifying, it wasn’t visible on the photo and the only thing remaining after excluding the Fear was Yeorum’s gaze.
[Melting the hearts of reporters with a deadly attractive gaze!]
And the day after, Korea’s largest superhuman news website [Superhuman Mecha] had the picture of Yeorum glaring at the reporters uploaded. Although the reporters had been tensed up due to her gaze, they had still uploaded the photo inside their camera with a positive comment.
There were dozens of compliments calling her pretty.
“These crazy bastards…”
Yeorum trembled in rage, while Bom and Kaeul chuckled from the side.
