Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast

After reading those words from Minhyun's mouth, Soohyun found herself feeling more pressurized. Whatever that controlled her body in that instant could possibly kill Minhyun yet he was staring at her with hopeful eyes.

She took in a deep breath and concentrated on removing her nails— which were extended to form claws— from Minhyun's throat. Soohyun put all the energy she could muster into that.

By now, Soohyun could control her face muscles, and she learned that the things she could control here were the ones she had say over in her actual body.

Biting her lips, she tried her best to move her claws slightly, and that is when a sharp pain went through her lips as if something pointy was inserted into it.

Blood flowed down her lips, and that caused her eyes to widen. Could it be that her teeth elongated to form fangs? This could give a perfect explanation for it.

Silently wincing at the pain, Soohyun closed her mouth and did not attempt to move it. She did not want those fangs to hurt any internal part of her mouth.

Lee Soohyun decided to try to move her claws from around Minhyun's neck again, and after all that effort she had put in, she managed to gradually dig them out of Minhyun's neck.

The process was extremely painful for her, and she could feel sweat forming upon her face. Everything within her ache, and she was close to giving up on this. Everything within her was fighting against.

Nevertheless, seeing that slight smile on Minhyun's face and how he was silently cheering towards her acted as a great encouragement to her. This was enough to not make her give up.

More than her own life, this became the biggest reason behind her determination, and Soohyun found that being funny. Whatever effect that Minhyun had on her, it was surely working in his favour.

Despite the thoughts that went through her mind in that instant, she did not let herself her distracted. Although her insides were burning up at this moment, she knew that she was very close to loosening her hold on Minhyun. If she gave up now, she might not get the chance accomplish this again.

Han Minhyun could sense that she was giving her all to retract her hand from around his throat, and that was enough to increase the joy in him. Nonetheless, this did nothing to diminish the guilt within him.

"You are close, Soohyun. Just put in slightly more of your efforts," Minhyun whispered to her.

Han Minhyun noticed how her lips curved slightly at the corner to form a small smile, and he could guess that she was gradually gaining more and more control over her body.

He could only imagine what she was going through at this moment, and in his opinion, she was strong to manage to do this much. Many lost their fight to keep their senses, and Soohyun was showing positive result up until this point.

Soon enough, Soohyun removed her claws from around Minhyun's neck, and the wounds of Minhyun's neck were starting to close.

Although her hands were trembling and they were attempting to get closer to Minhyun, Soohyun did a fairly good job at keeping them. Seeing that, Minhyun gave Soohyun one of his encouraging smiles, having an inkling that she is able to see him.

°°°

Seeing that she was successful in pulling away from claws from around Minhyun's neck gave her a sense of accomplishment, and a wide smile formed on Soohyun's face.

If she kept up with it, she will able to gain control over body sooner or later, and noticing how Minhyun was staring at her in that instant made her be more aware of her success.

Lee Soohyun was not going to let herself be taken over by some other creature, and she was determined to make it out alive with her having the full control over her body.

That was when Soohyun had slipped up for a second. Due to her few seconds of happiness, the control she gained wavered, and her eyes widened at that.

Lee Soohyun's eyes widened when the clawed hand was moving towards Minhyun's chest, and regardless of how hard she tried, she could not get that hand to move back.

Soohyun was panicking at that instant, and she had no idea on what to do. Those claws were inserted into the area beneath her shoulder, and she let out a slight gasp at how close it was to his chest.

Her body could have potentially killed Minhyun yet he did not attempt to avoid the attack. Soohyun had no idea on whether cry or applaud at him for being this foolish.

The claw was penetrating further into that place, and Soohyun found herself growing scared. She could not comprehend on what to do at that moment, and anxiety was brewing up within her.

She wanted to yell out towards Minhyun to get away from there, but she was well aware on how her voice would not be reaching out to him. 

She did not know what to do with his stubborn self, and fright increased within her; She found herself feeling extremely helpless.

The screen in front of her was starting to become blurry, and realizing that, Soohyun was starting to become more worried. Coupled with all of that, she was starting to have a headache forming.

She did not know what to do in order to stop her sight to the outer world from disappearing or how to pull away her claws from Minhyun. She found herself completely frozen at this moment, and all of her thoughts were disheveled.

Noticing how blood was seeping out of his wound and was staining his white shirt was not helping her think correctly. Wasn't Minhyun scared about his life?

Han Minhyun tried to say something to her, and she silently read, 'Compose yourself, Soohyun, and do not panic. You can do it! Lee Soohyun is not a loser! You can fight against it. About me, the situation is quite serious. You have to rescue me; You are my prince after all.'
