"It's just that we're afraid you'll die on this mission, so we're letting you enjoy a good meal before you go!"

Without enemies around, the group bantered and joked, filling the entire hall with laughter and liveliness.
Kim Haru, however, wasn't comfortable with such large crowds.
He didn't leave outright or try to stand out, though. Instead, he quietly found a seat in a corner. Before entering the dining hall, he had made a stop at the restroom to change into a clean set of clothes.
Shin Woncheon and his three teammates, familiar with Kim Haru's habits, were already waiting there and showed no surprise at seeing him in fresh clothes once again.
They had witnessed this yesterday, and it wasn't just them—other ability users had seen Kim Haru's behavior too.
