Intro

Late at night, the alleyway was noisy. The sounds of violent collisions and short curses filled the narrow space, and voices echoing off the walls did not fade easily. A chilly air had settled in the dark alley, and the glares exchanged between them were growing sharper by the second. Han Si-hyeon slowly rolled up his shirt sleeves with an indifferent expression. There was no particular emotion in his face. He wasn't annoyed, nor was he angry. He merely looked at his opponents as if they were a nuisance. It was a brief scuffle. It wasn't supposed to turn out like this from the start. It had begun with a truly trivial remark, something that could have been laughed off. But the atmosphere had already soured a long time ago. Harsh words were exchanged, and shoulders bumped. The narrow alley became chaotic in an instant, and low curses continued incessantly from one side. Someone grimaced, and someone else backed away. Han Si-hyeon didn't bother to open his mouth. The brief commotion didn't last as long as expected. The sounds echoing through the alley gradually subsided, and the frantic atmosphere began to settle down slowly. Han Si-hyeon clicked his tongue briefly as he brushed the dust off the back of his hand. His knuckles were slightly scraped, and faint red marks remained on the back of his hand. His crumpled shirt clearly showed what had just happened, but he himself had a face that suggested nothing was wrong. This wasn't the first time. Rather than a large or serious accident, it was just a small mishap typical of Han Si-hyeon. He would surely be nagged again when he returned. He knew that fact better than anyone, but he didn't care much. Han Si-hyeon roughly adjusted his shirt collar and put his hands in his pockets. Exiting the alley, he walked slowly along a familiar path. The night air was cooler than expected, and the streets were quieter than usual. Walking without a thought, a familiar place soon came into view.
