“It’s because of Cheon Sin-woo you brought me here, right? I’ll tell you everything I know, just please remove the blindfold.”
“Ha, this is fun! Alright, if that’s what you want.”
Her laughter buzzed in my ears like bees. I felt nauseous. I hadn’t felt this sick even during the Gate Sync.
Finally, the blindfold was removed, and I couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight of her fiery red hair.
“Alright, kid. You’ll cooperate first.”
“Kalí, is this okay?”
“We had to remove the blindfold to use ‘that’ anyway. It’s fine, we can just erase her memory.”
The woman, with her arrogant smile, was unmistakably Kalí. With her blazing red hair loosely tied and towering over 180 cm, she was a person who had the right to be arrogant. Not just that, she was famous worldwide.
War God Kalí. Ranked 2nd in the USA and 9th in the world, known for her love for fighting.
It’s said that rankers have their quirks, and Kalí, known as the American troublemaker, laughed casually.

“Oh, you’re not surprised?”
Of course, she assumed I knew who she was.
“……I already heard your name.”
I never imagined that ‘Kalí’ referred to the actual War God Kalí.
Kalí chuckled and leaned in close to me.
“No need to be scared. I really don’t plan to hurt you. As long as you answer my questions properly.”
Her eyes, examining my face, carried curiosity and deep scrutiny. As if on guard, or as if questioning my existence.
It was strange. Why would Kalí kidnap me because of Cheon Sin-woo?
Although Cheon Sin-woo is ranked 1st in South Korea, he’s only 13th worldwide. Even though ranking doesn’t directly equate to combat strength, there’s still a gap between him and the 9th rank.
Could Cheon Sin-woo be living like a complete mess abroad? That’s not like him, but then again, Kalí is no less of a mess…

“Hmm, pondering with that little head of yours?”
“…….”
Kalí growled softly. I felt like prey thrown in front of a predator. I couldn’t answer.
“What’s your name?”
“……Park Ha-Young.”
“Good, no lies then.”
I couldn’t fathom why Kalí was asking about information she already knew. Regardless, she grabbed my chin, turning my face this way and that, her eyes narrowing as if genuinely curious about me.
“It’s strange. Cheon Sin-woo wouldn’t care about a non-awakened like you… Silence wouldn’t lie about it, right?”
“…….”
I was more curious. Why would Cheon Sin-woo care about someone like me? Wait, what? Silence?
My body froze again. It felt like being hit on the head with a hammer. Why was Silence mentioned here?

Before I could utter a word, Kalí pulled out something. It was a pocket watch with a red gem embedded.
“Listen, Park Ha-Young. From now on, you only answer what I ask. Got it?”
The second hand ticked away. Without giving me time to understand, Kalí started questioning, apparently sure I would speak the truth.
The red gem glowed. My head felt slightly dizzy.
“What’s your relationship with Cheon Sin-woo?”
“…….”
I didn’t know what to answer. I wanted to ask why Silence was mentioned here and what she was doing to me.
But to avoid being killed or maimed, I answered as honestly as I could.
“I don’t know.”
“…….”

That was the limit of my sincerity. I genuinely didn’t know.
Kalí’s expression turned grave, then frustration filled her face. I shivered without realizing.
“……You don’t know?”
“I, I don’t know.”
I was already distressed about that issue, and now this phantom-like figure appears, asking about my relationship with Cheon Sin-woo.
For a brief moment, I even thought Kalí might be a fanatical fan of Cheon Sin-woo who couldn’t accept my existence and caused this.
Kalí muttered to herself, “It can’t be…”, “She wouldn’t be lying…”, “Damn it!”
“Ah, so it’s all tangled from the start. But anyway, you and Cheon Sin-woo…”
Kalí, annoyed, was brushing her face with her hand, then suddenly stopped. Her gaze on me was fierce.
The murderous intent in her golden eyes felt like piercing my skin. A short sigh, “Ha,” then she exclaimed.
