Raising her hand, Soohyun placed them on top of his shoulders and pecked his lips softly. Then, she stated, "But Hubby, the next time you repeat these actions of yours, I will be really, really angry."

Bringing his hand closer to Soohyun, he pinched on her nose softly and said, "Noted."

Seeing the fork before her, she picked up a big piece of pancake, and turning towards Minhyun with that piece, she forced it inside his mouth, making sure that the syrup touched the corner of his lips.

The piece was too big for Minhyun's mouth, and Soohyun was well aware of that. That is why, she tried to push it in his mouth.

Without showing the difficulty he felt on his expression, Minhyun managed to take in the entire piece of pancake and began to chew on it.

Seeing that he was busy with that, she hurriedly ate her breakfast. Minhyun was right; she would not be efficient in her training if she did not have energy in the first place.

After she had swallowed down couple of bites of the pancake, she extended her hand towards the glass of blood on top of the table and picked it up. Raising it, she took a gulp out of it.

As Soohyun ate, Minhyun's eyes continued to stare at her while his lips curved to form a smile. Seeing how cute she was while eating, his urge to tease her diminished.

Subconsciously, his eyes stared at her the whole time she was eating, and when her food was finished, she was about to jump back from his lap when the hand around her stomach prevented her from doing so.

Wearing a smiling expression— which was forced— she turned back and said, "Hubby, as much as I want to accompany you at this moment, I have lessons to attend. Teacher Kim doesn't like his students being late."

Moving his face closer to hers, Minhyun pecked in her cheek softly and stated, "Ah! I am reluctant to let go of you, but I don't want to hinder your lessons for you. After your lessons are over, certainly do come over to my office."

"Why?" Soohyun asked, raising one of her eyes. 

"Why else? That's because I want to see you and smother you with kisses. After all, that is what you deserve after going through all that lessons," he said.

'Geez! I expected something more serious! As if I will be coming over to your office for that.'

°°°

After the lessons for today were over, Soohyun found her muscles aching. Stretching her arms, she walked over to Minhyun's office.

Despite of his words earlier, she decided to show up there, thinking that there will be something serious needed for discussion. Regardless of that, she had an idea for Minhyun.

Extending her hand towards the knob of the door, she turned it and pulled the door open without knocking on the door beforehand. Finding that the door was unlocked, she walked into his office.

Stepping into the room before her, she noticed that Minhyun was not inside the room and therefore, decided to wait for him.

Stepping over to his table, she sat down upon the seat before it, and her eyes fell on the documents on top of it. Extending her hand towards it, she took the paper that was placed on top of it.

Turning the paper, she realized that it was the result to the test done on Oh Jaeho's blood. Soohyun took him to be careless for leaving such documents on his table and not locking the door.

Then again, thinking about how people here can transport around, there was no use in locking the door.

Reading through the paper, there were many terms she did not understand, and finding this to be hopeless, she placed it on the table. 

That's when her eyes on the picture drawn on a piece of paper. The picture caught her eyes, and holding her paper closer to her, she saw the drawing on top of it.

The man in the picture resembled Han Minhyun, and a detail in it startled Lee Soohyun. It was the sword that was driven through his chest.

Her eyes widened due to horror as a gasp left her mouth. Behind him couple of dead bodies were lying, and seeing the image before her, she found it to be frightening. The details on the sword were not clearly drawn and seemed to be rather incomplete.

At that moment, someone stepped into the room, and she instantly placed the paper on top of the table. Turning her head back, she stared at Minhyun who walked towards her.

"What were you seeing?" Minhyun questioned. 

Soohyun's shift of emotions and the current expression on her face was something he easily identified; it seemed that she had seen something disturbing.

"Nothing," Soohyun answered.

Sitting down at his place, his eyes fell on the paper that Soohyun was touching, and he understood what caused that change in emotions for her.

"That picture doesn't hold much meaning. Just ignore it," Minhyun said.

"It can't be that," Soohyun— surprised how he could be this calm over it— said, "There is surely a meaning behind it. Don't try to hide things from me, Han Minhyun."

Those words of her led him to let out a sigh before he said, "This was the prediction made by the oracle; he drew the scene on the paper and sent it to me."

After she had listened to those words from Minhyun, a gasp instantly escaped from her mouth as her eyes widened in horror. Her hand visibly trembled. Did that mean Minhyun was dying?

Noticing Lee Soohyun's shivering hand, he moved his hand closer to her and placed his palm on top of that hand of hers.

"Y-You will die at the end of this?" Soohyun questioned.

"Well, the future is uncertain. Now, that I know about it, I might be able to avoid it if I am lucky. But I guess, I am done for if luck doesn't support me."
