Uijae wrestled with the book for a long time but ultimately gave up. Sometimes, even overwhelming strength couldn’t solve a problem.

If I can’t read it, I’ll need to find someone who can. He sat back, listening to the rhythmic hammering echoing nearby, lost in thought.

Someone who wouldn’t question me too much…

Sa-young and Honeybee were out of the question. The moment he asked them to read it, they’d start interrogating him. Instead, he began recalling the faces of people he’d met here.

The first to come to mind was Jeong Bin. But Uijae quickly shook his head. Jeong Bin was too busy, and if he noticed Uijae’s vision problems, he’d surely inform Nam Woo-jin.

Next was Nam Woo-jin, but Uijae dismissed the thought just as quickly. That guy? Not a chance. Nam Woo-jin’s thundering reprimands were enough to silence both Uijae and Sa-young. He rolled his eyes.

Yoon Gaeul? She might help if I convince her…

However, Gaeul here was deeply concerned about J’s health. If she found out about his condition, she’d drag him straight to Nam Woo-jin.

And then I’d end up confined to the infirmary again…

The thought of being locked up with Sa-young in a hospital room made him shudder. The risk was too high.

Hong Yesung might be an option, but he’s too far away. No way I’m going there alone.

The whimsical Minggijeok and Romantic Opener weren’t part of the Wave Guild since it didn’t even exist here. That left him with nobody reliable. As Uijae ruminated on his narrow social circle, a snide voice interrupted his thoughts.

“What are you doing lazing around here? Must be nice. Everyone else is working themselves to death.”@@novelbin@@
