It’s been twenty years since “Gates,” disaster zones infested with monsters, and “Newtypes,” a new human race of psychics, appeared.... more>>

Each nation has struggled in its own way to reclaim peace. They established the Deschement Center, an international organization that manages Gates worldwide, and appointed high-ranking Newtypes as “Sentinels.”

The strongest Sentinel, without question, is the S-Class Newtype Jae Chaui (在此矣). His name means “I am here,” and like the name implies, he reigns as a timeless, invincible hero and absolute force—never aging, never injured, never fading.

Meanwhile, in the ruined corners of the world, lives Song Morae, an E-Class Guide barely surviving a life as barren as a desert. His everyday existence, filled with contempt and oppression, is poor and pale.

So when the Deschement Center offers him a job—and even claims he has been selected as an S-Class Guide, the new partner of Jae Chaui—it’s almost beyond belief.

“Is that your partner? Just died a moment ago. Time to take on a new one, right?”

From the first day they meet, Jae Chaui shatters Song Morae’s world with force and indifference.

Even physical intimacy feels hollow, and speaking is even harder—their partnership is chaos.

Yet Jae Chaui “likes” Song Morae. Even as he breaks him down, Song Morae remains an incomprehensible mystery. Jae Chaui, despite everything, can’t figure him out.

Morae’s silent mystique defies unraveling.

“Breaking is easy. Fixing isn’t.”

Unless you split open that pretty little head and peek at what’s inside. <<less

Tonight, once again, he yearned for her purification.... more>>

It had been an unhappy life.

Despite possessing the power of purification, Irene was deemed the lowest rank, never having received anyone’s love or acceptance in her short life. Even in her final moments, she died alone and lonely, yet strangely, she found herself back in the past.

And not just any past but right before meeting her husband, Michael, the man she had ruined.

‘This is the first mistake I must correct in this life. That is…not getting involved with Michael.’

*

However, Michael seems peculiar.

"I... I need you. Please purify me."

He asked for purification first.
A paladin, this holy man, comes to me every night.

"Irene. My pair. My wife. Tonight, I want to be cleansed by you. Long and slow."

You were definitely a paladin in a previous life who wouldn't even lay a finger on me, right? <<less

“Everything from start to finish is f*cking awful. Shit.”... more>>

“You think I’m some kind of flower? I feel the same, you shitty bastard.”

With a 92% matching rate, the highest in Center history, he and I fought from our very first meeting. We fought when we were put in the same class, we fought at the Center, and we even fought at a government event, pulling each other’s hair in a brawl that was broadcast live across the nation. Hardly a day passed without me grabbing him by the collar. It feels like I gripped even harder whenever I was jealous of the guide he imprinted on nine years ago. Because this arrogant, rude, and insolent esper bastard was my first love. And this utterly hopeless, damnable crush is still ongoing. Even though, in three months, I can see the end of my fate looming. <<less

One day, Chiyoung, who was living as a kitchen worker in the Iak unit, met someone who would change her life forever.... more>>

“peekaboo. Who are you.”

The other person noticed Chiyoung. Chiyoung took her breath away at the clear and simple voice, as if there was nothing to be afraid of in the world.
Would Taesan be like that? She felt as if she had met a giant.

* * *

What Baekhan discovered was Chiyoung’s gender displayed next to Chiyoung’s name written in the upper right corner of the matching rate checklist.

M. Male.

The moment he discovered those letters, Baekhan ran out of the place and started throwing up.
With a face covered in filth. As if this was the first time such an insult had been experienced.

That day, Chiyoung was thrown into hell again. <<less

Baek Sijin, who was appointed as a Diagnostic Examiner at the F12 Center where Esper Ham Geonwu — the savior of his life — was located, eagerly headed to work. However, little did he expect that an unexpected wall awaited him there.... more>>

"If you really have no interest in Ham Geonwu, then there's no need for you to make things difficult for me. Isn't that right?"

This was none other than Jeong Taeyul, an A-Rank Guide who boasted a high matching rate with Ham Geonwu.

Jeong Taeyul stuck close to Baek Sijin, displaying a spiteful side of him by checking (?) every little thing. It would be nice to hate him all the time, but Sijin, with his strong professional conduct, finds himself constantly concerned about Jeong Taeyul due to his consistently poor examination results…

A meeting between an A-Rank Guide and an ordinary, powerless bottom! What kind of ending awaits their relationship, which began with such hate for each other? <<less

A catastrophic gate known as “The Goddess”—a disaster-level anomaly.... more>>

Despite 88 regressions attempting to overcome it, every effort ended in failure.

Han Haegyeol, team leader of the guides, has grown weary of being rejected by his assigned S-rank esper, Lee Gyeon.

There seems to be no end to this one-sided love.

Eventually, he decides to lay low in this lifetime, pretending to be a mere D-rank guide.

But then—

“Be my pair, Han Haegyeol. You.”

The one who always claimed to hate guiding suddenly changed his tune. <<less

They said there was a prince in Sangers Castle—a prince who could die at any moment.... more>>

My job was simple: to take care of him until that day came.

“You dare lay a hand on me?”

“I only meant to serve you, Your Highness.”

“The very act of someone like you reaching out to me is a mistake.”

But the prince’s personality turns out to be far from easy.

“Don’t hesitate under the excuse of thinking. When I give a command, you obey without question.”

The moment our eyes met, his oppressive voice rang out—

“Attend to me.”

The K814 team, composed of two Guides and five Espers. While struggling day by day, fighting in a severed spacetime, the A-rank Guide Han Seungmin dies, leaving only the C-rank Guide Seo Jungin. To save the five Espers, mucosal guiding is the only means available…... more>>

Not only is the secret exposed, causing shame, but performing mucosal guiding unleashes SS-rank guiding, delivering unparalleled pleasure. <<less

Edith Cordelia, a high-ranking class Esper belonging to the imperial family, sacrifices herself to end the ceaseless streams of creatures.... more>>

In the end, she meets her death due to a sudden rampage, leaving her Guide, Mikhail, engulfed in shock.

Afterwards, she reincarnates into the body of Bianca without any abilities. However, she suddenly suffers from an unexpected awakening fever as a guide and ends up encountering the crown prince in the garden in the middle of a birthday banquet.

“Lady Astri, I’m being generous with you right now.”

“P-please… heut, help.”

Bianca, who became an S-class Guide with a 98% match rate, was confused by everything that had changed since she was an Esper. To protect her family, she becomes his dedicated Guide under the condition that she wouldn’t imprint. She was confident that she wouldn’t fall in love with him. Once the contract was over, she planned to leave without any regrets.

But when her brother’s sudden death and her parents’ disappearance left her with nothing else, everything became irrelevant to Bianca.

“Do you really intend to stay by my side? Even though you’ve been through things you shouldn’t have to go through?”

“…Yes. I told you I would. I have no reason to leave, so I intend to stay by Your Highness’s side, the one whom I’ve imprinted with.”

The unusual occurrences happening around her.

Even though she is worried about his habits that keep reminding her of someone else, Bianca decides to remain by his side.

Until she found out it was all a coincidence riddled with lies. <<less

Lee Su-hyeon is judged to be a Dual Awakened, even rarer than S-class Awakened, possessing both Esper and Guide abilities. However, due to his low rank, he's quickly overlooked by the public. Living quietly like a background extra, one day an unimaginable, dream-like opportunity comes his way. His guiding compatibility rate with Song Ji-hyeok, a newly recruited S-class Esper at the guild, turns out to be over 80 percent.... more>>

But life isn't so simple. Song Ji-hyeok openly ignores Su-hyeon due to his low rank...

"Let me say this again, I have absolutely no intention of pairing up with you. So stop wasting your energy like this."

His expression was emotionless and calm. If he had sneered or acted arrogant, it might have sparked some defiance, but his matter-of-fact delivery made the impact even greater.

After maintaining silence for a moment, Su-hyeon barely moved his lips.

"But you heard what Manager Park said. The higher the matching rate, the more efficient the guiding..."

"I said I don't want to."

The sharp interjection made Su-hyeon's mouth shut automatically. Song Ji-hyeok let out a sigh and stared directly into his eyes again.

"You look like you don't understand, so I'll be frank. To me, a guide partner's rank is far more important than matching rate. Honestly, how dare a C-rank try to match with an S-rank? Have some self-awareness."

"......"

"I'll fulfill the period the manager mentioned, but that's it. Persuasion won't work, so you should give up."

It was perfect defense. He had somewhat expected this, but if the rejection was truly because of rank, there was nothing he could do about it.

'...Nothing. There's nothing.'

But still! He couldn't just quietly let go of this opportunity that had come his way. Throwing away unnecessary discouragements, he looked at Song Ji-hyeok with eyes full of determination.

"Since I'm your junior by both experience and age, I'll speak casually. While I can't change my innate rank, I'll do my absolute best. I'll make sure you won't be satisfied with anyone's guiding but mine, so be prepared."

Despite the bold declaration of war, the guy wasn't intimidated. Instead, he just sneered as if Su-hyeon wasn't even worth dealing with. <<less

In a time of chaos caused by monster invasions, Ha-gyeom, who has manifested as a guide, is kidnapped to one of the rebuilt cities, Zone 0. There, he loses his family and is on the brink of becoming a resource rather than a person. However, he is rescued by Baek Seung-woo, an Esper from the central center, gaining a new lease on life.... more>>

"My name is... Baek Seung-woo. I'm nineteen years old."

Thanks to Baek Seung-woo’s dedication and efforts over the years, Ha-gyeom transforms into a respectable trainee. Although he always thought of Baek Seung-woo as a close brother, ever since overhearing a conversation, he starts feeling feverish and his heart begins to race.

"Ha-gyeom is like my beginner's spirit. I must never lose him."

Nurturing these hidden feelings, Ha-gyeom falls into despair again when Baek Seung-woo goes missing during a secret mission.

Training and waiting for his return for five years, Ha-gyeom turns twenty and has been guiding for a year. However, without a highly compatible Esper at the center, he is unable to fully utilize his abilities.

Then, he finally gets the opportunity to participate in a mission in Zone 0 and hears unexpected news upon his return.

"Matching rate 99 percent!"

In a place where a matching rate below 50 percent is considered a curse, around 70 percent is average, and above 80 percent is seen as divine luck, a rate of 99 percent is unheard of!

To make matters worse, Ha-gyeom faces a situation where he must forcibly guide an out-of-control Esper in Zone 0. Confronted by a familiar silhouette in the darkness, Ha-gyeom is shocked beyond belief. <<less

One day, Won-woo became an awakened guide called a ‘Purifier.’... more>>

He became a being with great power, not only capable of guiding beyond ranks but also able to take away the power of Espers.

As a result, in Won-woo's world, Espers and ‘Purifier’ were hostile to each other.

An endless war against the Espers ensued.

Won-woo lost all his comrades who fought alongside him and became alone.

Then one day,

Won-woo encountered a thick fog and met a dying version of himself from another world.

The request from his other-world self was "Please live here in my place."

"I'm glad. Although it's a life I've ruined, you should be able to endure well."

Accepting this, Won-woo crosses over to that world and becomes another 'Ji Won-woo'...

*

‘Everyone is alive.’

To his surprise, in this world, all his comrades who had died were still alive.

Won-woo goes to find them and uses his abilities to help, and in the process, he encounters 'Gye-yoon', the ruler of the North.

'It's because of those eyes. Those identical eyes.'

But strangely, every time he saw him, someone came to mind... <<less

The only one who ever reached out to him had died—... more>>

Even though Jiho had used up all his guiding energy for him.

‘If I’d stayed by his side from the start, maybe things would’ve turned out differently…’

Drowning in regret and self-loathing, Jiho collapsed.

When he finally came to, he found himself standing in the middle of the hallway of the illegal guiding facility where he had been confined until three years ago.

“Wh-what’s wrong? Are you hurt?”

And at the end of the hallway—he was there.

Baek Dojin, wearing the same tight-fitting combat uniform as he had that day three years ago.

‘Baek Dojin died. I must be dreaming.’

Maybe this was the last time he would ever see Baek Dojin in a dream.

So Jiho clung to him desperately.

The warmth of the hand patting his shoulder was so comforting that Jiho wished he’d never wake up from the dream.

“Mm… huh…?”

But something felt off.

“I won’t do anything you don’t like. So don’t be afraid.”

Why… why wasn’t he waking up from the dream? <<less

As Haebom walked along the campsite trail, reading his novel, he quite literally stepped into its world. ... more>>

And right in front of the sub male protagonist—who was about to meet his death, no less!

On top of that, he was now an S-rank Guide?

It was already absurd enough that he had fallen into the world of a novel, but awakening as an S-rank Guide?

Though momentarily flustered, Haebom quickly made up his mind—he would become the partner of Wonho, the sub male protagonist he had pitied throughout the entire story.

Of course, only until he found a way back.

But… was the sub male protagonist always this prickly?

Like a wary cat that refused to be touched, Wonho kept running away from him, dodging him at every turn.

Determined, Haebom gave chase—only to make a drunken mistake in the end…! <<less

Several decades ago, humanity faced an extinction-level crisis. The skies and the earth split apart, and mysterious lifeforms began slaughtering people. It was then that Espers—humans with awakened superpowers—and Guides, who could heal them, emerged. Yoon Tae-ha, an S-class Esper, has been living on borrowed time due to a prolonged lack of proper guidance.... more>>

One day, Cheon Geon-young, the heir to CH Group—the company that owns Korea’s most powerful guild—appears before her with a proposal.

“I’ll do my best as your Guide, so I hope you’ll lend me your strength, Miss Yoon Tae-ha.”

A third-generation chaebol heir working for a rival company? Suspicious, to say the least. But with survival at stake, Tae-ha reluctantly accepts his offer. Thus begins their relationship, rooted in distrust. However, Cheon Geon-young uses his alluring charm to shake her resolve…

“Stop touching my hand.”

“You’re lacking guidance.”

“My energy’s fully charged.”

“The backup battery will feel hurt if you reject me.”

…Who was it that suggested keeping things professional again?

I've been transmigrated into an R-rated, tragic guide-verse BL novel.... more>>

And into a world where an obsessive madman destroys the empire.

ab*sed by a guide in his childhood, he turns dark and grows up to be a mad duke.

What would happen if I provided proper guidance to this obsessive man?

Of course, I should do it as an S-class guide, but...

"If you want to live, try to pique my interest."

He inhaled deeply at the nape of my neck, as if trying to imprint my scent.

"I might help you if I see you struggling, hmm?"

Why is this obsessive man, who should be fixated on the bottom character,

showing obsession toward me, a mere extra!

I only dreamed of a safe future,

but now my life is being threatened. <<less

Shen Qianqian believes that there is no better place in the world than a junkyard. ... more>>

He can find half a can of fruit, half a piece of bread, and a half-arm teddy bear.

What excites him the most is that in the junkyard, he can also find his brother.

— A half-brother who can't walk! A very handsome and clean brother whom no one could exchange for ten marbles.

Shen Qianqian has picked up stray kittens, but they ran away.

He has picked up stray dogs, and they also ran away.

But this limping brother... Ha! He has no legs, so he can't run away.

Shen Qianqian is still worried. Anyway, his brother doesn’t remember anything. He turns his eyes and whispers in his brother's ear, "You’re Shen Miaomiao, this is our home, you really like me, and even if someone offers you a hundred marbles, you won’t leave with them."

In the first twelve years of Chu Ya’s life, he never expected he would end up in the abyss of poverty, not only losing his legs but also being treated like a pet by a six-year-old child in a junkyard.

"Shen Miaomiao, I’m going out to work, be good at home, and don’t tear up our sofa."

He never expected that during those desperate years of survival, he would never once think of abandoning Shen Qianqian.

Shen Qianqian is his everything.

Zero Compatibility. ... more>>

A Guide in Name Only—Practically an Ordinary Person.

As an F-Guide with almost no chance of matching with an Esper, Ben had always believed he could continue living his uneventful, unremarkable life.

Until he met that man.

"Found you. My Guide."

The sudden appearance of Haimar, a monstrous Esper who boldly declared Ben as his Guide, shattered everything Ben thought he knew.

With him came a shocking revelation about Ben’s own rank—one that turned his quiet life upside down.

Swept into an unrelenting series of events, the two are drawn together, their bodies and hearts inching ever closer...

* * *

Physical contact between two complete strangers—how was that even possible?

At least within Ben’s understanding of common sense, it wasn’t.

“Uh, I still don’t even know if I’m really your Guide…”

Zing.

The sharp blue eyes staring into his made his headache flare up again, as if it had only been momentarily subdued.

Still, it wasn’t as bad as back in the container, so Ben chose to buy time by voicing his honest uncertainty.

After all, the one most affected by this connection was the Esper.

Guides, strictly speaking, could live perfectly fine without an Esper.

Even if he outright refused, what could the other guy really say?

"Want to check?"

Wait—hold on.

Why was he coming closer?!

Before Ben could react, Haimar, with a face annoyingly sculpted to perfection, took Ben’s hand and placed it against his cheek.

Smooth, flawless skin brushed against his palm.

And before he could pull away, his fingers grazed something even warmer—Haimar’s lips.

The contrast between his cool skin and the heat of his breath sent an odd shiver down Ben’s spine.

He instinctively tried to twist his hand away, but his fingers, caught in an iron grip, instead trailed across the Esper’s ear.

That’s when he noticed them—three thick, metallic piercings: a rugged hoop and two circular studs.

Those weren’t just accessories.

They were control devices, temporary stabilizers used by high-ranking Espers when their abilities became unstable or when they required emotional regulation.

But having three at once?

Ben froze.

His stunned expression didn’t go unnoticed.

Haimar, still holding his hand, intertwined their fingers with an easy familiarity, his long fingers wrapping around Ben’s.

"If I hold you," he murmured, voice low and dangerous, "I think we’ll both find out for sure." <<less

This time, you will be the ones who will be horribly destroyed.... more>>

There were various modifiers for the villainess Odette Lina von Albrecht, who appeared in the 19+ corrupted reverse harem game.

A deceiver who deceived the Empire by pretending to be a purifier when she was not. A witch who committed evil deeds that were too evil to even speak of and toyed with the four male protagonists who were transcendent.

However, there was something that the players who played the game and the male protagonists who hated and pursued Odette didn't know.

"You are nothing more than a toy in our house. Since your master has decided to abandon you, you should die happily."

All of Odette's terrible evil deeds were not based on her will. However, that fact was never revealed. Because Odette, who was falsely accused, eventually met her death at the hands of the male protagonists.

It was definitely going to end like that.

"...Could it be that you have come back?"

She returned to the past. And at the moment of her death, she realized that she had been reincarnated as Oddette.

***

A second life was given, a future where she knew exactly what would happen. I was going to show the family who betrayed me a real hell and use the male protagonists who hated me as a means of revenge. But,

"Damn it. I don't know why you care."

"I want to offer you my knightly oath."

The male protagonist who hated me changed. In the meantime, I suddenly awakened as a real purifier.

'When I wanted it so badly, I wasn't given anything. Why now that I've given up on everything?'

All that matters to me is revenge. I don't like anything. Really, not anything. <<less

"Kissing someone without knowing the colour of their eyes, really?"... more>>

Hexion sneered as he looked at the restrained man. Even a disaster grade esper didn't seem like much.

"Ugh..."

A dry and rough kiss, under the guise of guiding, continued. Eventually, light purple irises were revealed beneath the forcibly removed blindfold. The esper, Zero Nine, muttered unconsciously. "I feel... surprisingly good."

“A kiss has awakened you.”

Of course it would feel good. Despite the slight sarcasm, Zero Nine asked with a somewhat dazed look. "...Did we kiss?"

"Yes, we did. On someone's orders."

Bloody, torn lips, gaunt cheeks, pale skin, and flushed ears.

"Then, would you kiss me just once more?"

The man, who had been on the verge of rampaging just moments ago, said. Hexion lowered his head and commanded,

"Open your mouth." <<less

His unrequited love came down with amnesia. And the only thing he forgot—was me.... more>>

“Why… are you looking at me like that?”

“I don’t know. Maybe because it’s surreal to hear that someone this pretty is my lover.”

S-Class Esper Sung Cha-hyeon, who lost his memories inside a dungeon with a 7% survival rate, comes out with only one thing missing: his recollection of Ji Se-min, his Pair Guide who was like a real brother to him. And he ends up believing Se-min’s lie—without the slightest doubt.

— “Esper Sung Cha-hyeon! Are you and Pair Guide Ji Se-min still just close like brothers?”

— “We’re dating.”

Pfft!

The lie? That they’re actually engaged to be married.

Even when Se-min tries to tell the truth, Cha-hyeon only hears what he wants and believes it blindly. And then—he drops a bomb during a live interview by publicly announcing their romantic relationship.

“Ahh, so Se-min doesn’t date people he only kisses and sleeps with. Wait—don’t tell me you just f***ed your hyung and ran?”

Faced with the outrageous behavior of the man he sees as family, Se-min is plunged into deep confusion. What happens when his memories come back…?

“You think I’ll regret this when I remember everything? Well, if that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better to go all in and regret it later?”

A whisper slips through the cracks, exploiting his hesitation. That voice, low and coaxing, leaves Se-min’s mouth dry with anxiety. Is it okay… to take this chance? <<less

[World-renowned SS-rank Esper Hyun Tae-oh appears on A Pair is Born!] ... more>>

The hit reality show A Pair is Born throws Espers and Guides into temporary pairings selected by viewer votes, broadcasting every raw moment of their shared daily lives.

To everyone's surprise, the temporary partner for Hyun Tae-oh—one of only three SS-rank Espers in existence—is none other than his childhood friend, Kang Chi-yu, a B-rank Guide.

Kang Chi-yu, who had recently decided to give up his long-standing unrequited love for Tae-oh, had been actively avoiding him. But Hyun Tae-oh flatly refused to join the show with anyone else.

“If you’re suddenly up for doing this, then do it with some other Guide. Why me?!”

“Who else would I do it with, if not you?”

***

“You. So why did you run away?”

“Run away from what?”

“Stop pretending you didn’t. Just tell me why.”

What’s the point of putting distance between us before we even grow old—when we’re just friends?

Hyun Tae-oh does everything, crosses every line, and still insists they’re just friends.

Once again, Kang Chi-yu steels his heart. He swore to bury this pathetic, tender longing he’d kept hidden all these years— and go back to being just soft, harmless friends. <<less

Espers are guaranteed sufficient guiding in exchange for serving the state.
Except for runaway espers.... more>>

Runaway espers, due to their unstable metrics, are like ticking time bombs that could go on a rampage again at any moment.

Shin Joo-hyun, who went on a rampage immediately upon manifestation and spent 11 years being used by the Association like a dog, lived a life far removed from guiding despite being an esper.

In front of him appears Cha In-ho, a famous actor who manifested late at the age of 26 as a guide.

And he has come to be matched with a runaway esper.

“From now on, I will be your matching guide, Joo-hyun. Please take care of me.”

But this guide, for some reason, keeps acting like he knows Joo-hyun...
“I am the only person who knows Joo-hyun.
And you are the only one who knows me.”

Will Shin Joo-hyun be able to uncover Cha In-ho’s true identity? <<less
