"Hello, my name is Baek Seo-jin," the young man said with a smile as he introduced himself.

Baek Seo-jin was undeniably handsome.

No, to be precise, his appearance was so striking that finding a proper comparison seemed impossible.

Even the girls nearby were already sending him admiring glances. It seemed his good looks played as much a role in their reactions as his position as the top scorer in the Kangin Academy entrance exam and heir to the Baekho Guild.

Great skills, a prestigious background, and exceptional looks—he seemed like someone anyone would find appealing at first glance.

Particularly, Seo-jin’s appearance was not the type to exude arrogance or seem unapproachable. Instead, he had the kind of friendly and pleasant demeanor that would make anyone feel at ease. His youthful features gave off a boyish charm, which only added to his approachable image.@@novelbin@@

Yet, to Moriya Yuka, something about him felt deeply unsettling.

“There’s definitely something about him.”

Yuka had always trusted her intuition. Though she couldn’t pinpoint the reason, she felt there must be a valid explanation for the intense aversion she felt toward him.

However, she couldn’t afford to let her feelings show. Suppressing her discomfort, Yuka forced a smile.

"Nice to meet you. I’m Moriya Yuka," she said, keeping her response brief.

She had no desire to engage in any further conversation with him.

"I’m Kang Yu-ra," Yu-ra added, her tone equally restrained.

Yu-ra, too, seemed to share a vague sense of unease about Seo-jin. While she was naturally reserved and shy around strangers, it was clear she had no interest in speaking with him.
