Valdebich remained silent for a moment and glared at Yeon-woo. It seemed like he recognized Yeon-woo.

‘His personality is different from how it’s described in the diary.’ The Valdebich Jeong-woo remembered was simple and kind. Although he sometimes went berserk during battle and ran forward without looking bad—which was how he got his nickname “Sword Yaksha”—he was normally timid and never said a mean word about anyone. It was why his companions always teased him and why Bayluk had managed to deceive him so easily.

However, the Valdebich in front of Yeon-woo was nothing like that. His eyes were blazing, and he looked unyielding. The scars all over his body were evidence of the rough battles he’d been fighting. The madness that exploded whenever he grabbed his sword had also been refined into a fierce fighting spirit. However, despite looking like a seasoned warrior, his difficulty in speaking remained. Valdebich didn’t speak with his voice but used Open Speaking instead, probably because he could deliver his thoughts faster that way. 『You’re… ###, right?』

Yeon-woo’s name...
