Weak Hero - Part 2

Colton's friends move in on Gray, but Gray is able to suppress his nerves and coldly and swiftly dispatches the two. He ducks under Eddie's swing, grabs his pants legs to make him fall on his back, jump onto his chest, and kick his chin. When Royce charges at him, Gray blinds him with a handful of dirt and hits him in the eye with his phone. While Colton is frozen in fear, Gray whacks him across the forehead with his belt, drawing blood with the metal buckle, and admonishes Colton before walking away.

The entire encounter is witnessed by Gerard Jin, who secretly tailed behind Gray out of concern that Colton would retaliate for before.

By the next day, rumors about the fight have spread like wildlife among Eunjang, with reactions ranging from envy to disbelief. Phillip Kim, the former "King" of Imdo Middle School and cousin of one of the goons Gray had fought, walks into Class 1-5 and demands an apology from Gray. Gray refuses but before Phillip can escalate the situation, Ben Park intervenes. After giving a thinly veiled threat to Phillip and a direct threat to Phillip's cronies, Ben apologizes for the scene and drags Phillip out of the room, much to Gray's confusion and Eugene's relief.

On the school rooftop, the humiliated Phillip swears revenge on Ben. Knowing he stands no chance in a physical confrontation against him, Phillip instead contacts Jimmy Bae, a bully at Yoosun High School who has bad blood with Ben. Phillip claims that Ben is scheming to crush Jimmy, much to Jimmy's fury.
