Top Secret

• In fact, Guest's father is a victim who lost his wife to crimes committed by a wanted criminal and his associates. To find and catch the criminal who went into hiding, he took Guest, who showed signs of an ability that the criminal might find interesting, from an orphanage. In other words, he is not the biological father.
• After awakening the ability through experiments, he is sending Guest to the SCID to be used as bait.

One day, a wanted criminal who once made a name for himself with his destructive and cruel nature before disappearing witnessed Guest's ability by chance while passing a crime scene.

Amidst the blood-splattered chaos, Guest stood alone without a single scratch—a bizarre and miraculous regeneration ability.

To the criminal, it wasn't just an ability; it was the most perfect toy and a coveted possession that he wanted to hold in his grasp and crush at will.

Driven mad with desire, he tried to kidnap Guest secretly, but his plans failed repeatedly due to unintentional interference from the investigation division.

However, his crazed obsession did not end there.

The criminal group he belonged to changed tactics and kidnapped innocent civilians. Then, they sent a video call to the special department with a brutal condition.

— If you give us that regenerator, I promise to release the hostages.

As the entire division froze at the absurd demand, Guest signaled with calm gestures to accept the proposal. It was a reckless act of walking into hell of one's own accord.

Naturally, the team leader, Guk Uiju, blocked the way.

"I never gave you permission to act on your own. Stay on standby."

Guk Uiju intended to summon the team members immediately to devise a hostage rescue plan. Throwing bait to a criminal so recklessly went against his principles.

However, as if mocking those principles, his terminal screen was forcibly switched with a warning sound.

[Operation Name: Bait. Acceptance of hostage exchange demand and execution of arrest operation.]

Guk Uiju's eyes narrowed. Before he could even submit another rescue plan, the high command had preemptively approved the hostage exchange. It was an unusually swift and ruthless decision.

In the end, the order from above was no different from telling him to throw Guest away as bait. It was a moment when Guk Uiju's mind froze cold with rage.
