...

He stayed still, doing only as he was told, exactly as they wanted. He followed their words.

The sound of shutters firing erupted from several places at once. He changed his pose at the request for the next one.

He was just standing there like that,

When a loud noise was heard from outside. The sound of something exploding. And the sound of humans entering this place. ...Humans?

The closed door was thrown open with a violent bang. What appeared were people draped in black cloaks. Everyone was wearing a hat, so their faces weren't clearly visible, but it didn't matter. He wasn't interested.

The problem was the visibility. Whether they had detonated something, the front was thick with smoke. As he waved his hand to clear the smoke,

He heard the sound of things collapsing one after another next to him. Turning his head, he saw the Segye-in had fallen. The ones who were taking photos earlier, and Heperu.

Is it the Rebels?

He narrowed his eyes. He wasn't particularly glad to see them. But then,

Something grabbed his wrist. He felt a warm heat enveloping his skin. He hesitated for a moment before slowly turning his gaze to the side.

Under the black hat, a face was visible. A face he had never seen before. But somehow, strangely,

They looked like that person.

As soon as that thought occurred, his pupils trembled. He knew it was a useless thought. Even so.
