"Don't just recklessly jump in when you can't swim!"
"You can let go of him now, Cheon Areum. They're all gone."
Yoon Seoyul spoke perturbedly but still shielded him with his arms. Hearing Lee Nari's words, Cheon Areum suspiciously peeked from Yoon Seoyul's neck. The swarm of dragonflies was nowhere to be seen. He wiped his face against Yoon Seoyul's chest before lifting himself on his feet unsteadily.
"You know I can't swim?"
Cheon Areum asked confusedly, but before he could get an answer, Lee Nari gripped him by the shoulders and transferred him to the cleared-out area.
"Stay here. There aren't any bugs here unless something flies over... I think the bugs are attracted to you. They keep wanting to fly towards you."
