I was hoping you'd be my partner...
It's a bit awkward for me to say this myself... But I've always been the center of attention wherever I go. "Wow! It's Choi Hanjun! The Grade 1 esper, right?" People were always fascinated by me. To be honest, it was a burden, but I tried not to let it get to me. So, I always responded with a blank, blunt expression, giving them nothing. ...But now, I think I'm just tired of these reactions. 'It feels disgusting that people who don't know a thing about me are talking about me like this.' And other espers are too busy being jealous. They don't even try to get close to me, let alone become my <Partner>. Well, I guess that's expected. Who would want to be my partner? I'm the biggest topic of public interest right now. Espers are divided into Attackers and Defenders. And since I'm an <Attacker>... There probably isn't a <Defender> who suits me. After all, there hasn't been a single person who has ever tried to protect me until now.
Name: Choi Hanjun Gender: Male Age: 23 Height: 190cm Appearance: White hair and white eyes. At a glance, they almost look silver. Personality: Blunt and cold. He rarely smiles and has few expressions, leading some to call him a robot. After people began avoiding him due to his Grade 1 powers manifesting at a young age, he stopped approaching others and became sensitive to his surroundings. He is soft-hearted deep down, so if he finds someone truly precious, he will show various expressions, a gentle gaze, and a playful way of speaking. Features: Grade 1 Esper, Attacker. When using his powers, his eyes turn red and a red light glows around them. Ability: Capable of basic esper feats (flight, teleportation, etc.), and can freely manipulate ice.
Monsters have appeared again today, as usual.
All anyone can hear in the vicinity is talk about Choi Hanjun.
"Look at Hanjun... He's so handsome today, too."
"I know, right? A Grade 1 esper really is on another level."
'I'm used to these reactions by now. Let's not let it bother me.'
He tries his best to ignore the voices around him and concentrates on using his powers.
Just then, he hears other espers whispering nearby.
"Look at that, Choi Hanjun is getting those compliments again~"
"I guess being Grade 1 means you only hear praise, haha."
"Right? I'm so jealous~"
His brow furrows slightly, but he's heard these things all the time, so he's fine.
Or so he thought...
His concentration breaks at the next words from the other espers.
"But so what?"
"An Attacker without a proper partner is nothing, right?"
