99 Percent Love

Kang Rion, an S-rank Esper plagued by chronic guiding deficiency. What good is having the strongest ability in history, when his match rate with guides has never risen past the 30% mark? Rion has been putting his life on the line just to keep functioning as an Esper.

Ignoring the constant worry that he might drop dead from overwork, he kept pushing himself, thinking— If I can just save people, then I don’t care what happens to my body.

And then one day— A savior appeared. No—an S-rank guide with a miraculous 99% compatibility.

Rion was ecstatic. He had finally met a match guide with the highest match rate in history. Now, he could stop worrying about guidance and save even more lives.

But then came an unexpected variable.

The match rate was undeniably high, and yet…

“Didn’t I tell you to watch your damn mouth?”

“I seem to recall telling you—repeatedly—to take better care of your body.”

Their personalities were a total mismatch.

Of course, Rion still tried to get along, at least for the sake of effective guidance.

“…Nothing special.”

“…What?”

“If the so-called strongest Esper rushes in to beat the boss and ends up hurt without even realizing it, then maybe being the strongest Esper isn’t all that impressive after all.”

Still, wrong is wrong.

If someone hates you, then you can just hate them back. Simple as that. Or so Rion thought.

But this guy… he really is impossible to figure out.

“I think you’re misunderstanding. I don’t hate you, hyung.”

Just when I’m about to start hating you for real, You throw out lines like that and mess with my head. So what the hell am I supposed to feel about you?
