At Kwak Hanmuk’s words, I felt around my eyes with one hand.
Had they turned gold again?
The heat against my palm was unmistakable.
I was somewhat used to it, having experienced similar symptoms whenever my eye color changed.
However, Kwak Hanmuk’s reaction was unusually intense.
He had already witnessed my eyes change several times.
Before entering TCX, we had even spoken briefly about my eyes turning gold.

When I looked bewildered, Kwak Hanmuk glanced around.

They were strange enough that I could understand Kwak Hanmuk’s reaction.
I rubbed my eyes, but nothing changed.
