Chapter 985 00985 Epilogue 4. Face Up To The Reality.

Suddenly, when I woke up, the landscape was touching quickly with my sight.

A wind like a blade scratches your ear cold. My head was dizzy like cars crossing a distance, and the mid-range commotion bothered me, but I couldn't care less. I just ran.

I don't know how long it took. However, as I ran with all my strength, I was suddenly running a familiar distance. It was my neighborhood after 15 years.

If I didn't know any better, I'd be lying, but the speed of running speeds up a single layer, not just the trunk. I imagined going back home hundreds and thousands of times in Hall Plain. Of course, the imagination was not so sudden....

It was not difficult to find a row house that I remembered as my home. As I climbed the stairs and stopped at the front door, I felt a beating heart. Enter the password and carefully open the unlocked door. You take a slow breath as you look at the faded white wallpaper.

As I entered the porch, my eyes frowned by themselves. It's because I was pretty messed up when I heard about the thief.

T r a n sl a t ed by jpｍ t l .c oｍ The kitchen's microwave is cracked and cracked, and the door hooks in the room are cracked or punctured. The kitchen was in a commotion. The sink fell apart like a rough grab and tear, and there were pieces of broken cups on the floor.

“Is this...? ”

Then I heard a faint groan. I turned the magic detector and flipped the bathroom door, and the stench pierced my nose.

The bathroom was far worse than the room. The sink was poorly silent, and the tiles were covered in debris.

Above all, there was a brother in this cave. I fell down the toilet, moaning intermittently.

“Brother!”

I was shaken as soon as I got close, but I was just nauseous, and my brother was unconscious.

T ra n sla ted by ｊp ｍ t l.co ｍ In fact, I wanted to ask what happened by forcibly Awakening it. However, I chose a way to put her to bed rather than keep shaking her mind.

After watching my brother constantly suffer for a while, I went back to the bathroom like I was drawn by the invisible energy. I turned the hot water regulator to the end and turned on the shower. As the cold water creaks and soaks the crown, my mind flashes.

That's it. The third eye was trembling a long time ago, and the slapping of the cheek pinched the thigh only made my mind clear.

Nothing happened when I woke up from my dream.

Everything is falling apart.

*

When I opened my eyes, the day was dim. I closed my eyes because my head was complicated, but I think I fell asleep.

I looked around and sighed. I was hoping it might be a hall plane, but the field of view was showing me my room. I finally came home and drew it, but I couldn't feel much emotion. Rather than having new sympathies, I keep asking questions.

There are three types of cases you can think of.

The first one is in a dream, or maybe it's best to exclude it. It's so vivid in my dreams. Senses are alive and people's reactions are very realistic.

The second is seeing visions, but also unlikely. If it really was a hallucination, it would have already been released with the third eye. I even took an EX rank, but I can't break it.

The third is....

“Did you really come back to Earth? ”

In fact, reason had already cried out that it was so. I just can't accept my emotions. However, in many ways, it was the third time for sure.

If you came back to Earth, I understood the landscape you saw when you got home. It's probably hard to cope with the experience and memories of your time. He couldn't overcome the mental confusion, so he made a mess of it.

Tr an sl at ed by Ｊpｍt l .ｃo m “Ha…………. ”

I can't come out unless I sigh.

Since when?

When did this get so weird?

Ever since I woke up on the train...

No, ever since I went to the Summon Room....

No, no, ever since I met the clan members in the restaurant...

Suddenly, I heard a beep. The mobile phone crystal on the desk was glowing. I ignored it because I didn't want to be distracted.

Dingdong. Dingdong.

However, after thirty minutes, the tone rang in succession, so I could not silence it. When I brought the phone into the void, there were three letters.

The sender of the first letter was an unknown number.

I'll be waiting on the Tancheon Steps.

The impenetrable staircase? Oh, who's going to confess? I smiled freshly thinking I sent it wrong.

However, as soon as I checked the second letter, the smile stopped automatically.

Come to the Olympic Boulevard and climb down to the top. I look forward to it.

Because the caller was your brother. Transla te d by jpｍ t l .ｃ oｍ

I stepped out of the bed and checked that my brother's room was empty. It was clear that I had regained consciousness while I was sleeping. I hurried outside, dressed.

It was usually a 30 minute walk from home to the Olympic Boulevard, but I was able to get there in less than five minutes by sprinting with electricity.

“Well done.Let's get him to a hospital... ”

The third letter was the map. As you check your position, you hear a voice as if you're about to go down the ramp. I looked around where the sound was coming from, and I could see the shifty figure standing under the stairs. A man looked at me and lifted his hand.

“Clan Lord! ”

“Seung Woo Jo?”

The man is Seung Woo Cho. He gives a nice smile when he comes downstairs to greet you.

“How are you feeling? Wow, I thought I was going to die. ”

“user Cho Seung-woo. ”

“Yes, yes. That's me, that's me. ”

“You came back with him? ”

Cho Seung Woo nodded his head and stared at me suddenly.

“Clan Road. Do you know why I'm here? ”

“… I don't know? ”

Tra ns l ate d b y jpｍt l.ｃo ｍ “I felt the slightest discomfort. He's been a non-combat user since he joined the Mercenary Clan. ”

“Yes?”

“I've been struggling with paperwork every day at the castle, but it's a bit like filling out a report at the company. So acceptance was relatively fast. ”

“Ah…. ”

That was reasonable. He was in charge of more than warfare, warfare and exploration. It may not seem like much, but it will be relatively less burdensome than a combat user.

“Shall we go this way? ”

Cho Seung Woo points to the pedestrian path on the left. It was the way to go anyway. I think it means to talk as we go, but I have no reason to refuse.

“There are more than forty people who have returned to Earth. ”

After a while, as soon as I stood side-by-side, Seung Woo opened his mouth. There are more than 40 people...

“Sounds like he knew he was coming back. ”

“That's right.”

I admitted it and fixed my face.

“The first thing I did when I came back.... And of course, it took time to adapt. Anyway, I was reaching out to noble patients. I even got my contact information and home address in advance. ”

Tie your glasses up and join the horse.

“How many people do you think were contacted the first time you dialed? ”

“I don't know. Half? ”

“There were eight. ”

“Eight people? ”

“Yes, the time we came back was fourteen and a half in the morning. I started calling less than six in the afternoon. Eight people were stable enough to pick up the phone after six hours. ”

“ ……. ”

I walked towards the ground. I was shocked. Of the forty, only eight...

“Well, as a result, the power's fine. I had family and friends, and I got a phone call later. ”

“Did I just call...? ”

“Oh, did you hear that? In fact, there was only one person who didn't get through to the end, and I just got a call. Fortunately, it wasn't too late, so I was able to get close to safety. ”

“Excuse me, safety? Are you saying he prayed to himself? ”

“Yes, I had a bad idea and sent my subordinate to my home address…. Unfortunately, you were right. But don't worry too much. He's probably on his way to the hospital right now. ”

“Who...? ”

Cho Seung Woo smiled bitterly and stopped walking.

“Clan Road. I'm sorry to cut you off in the middle, but I'll tell you the rest later. My instructions are over. ”

and pointed to the distant light.

“You can take the sidewalk. They'll be waiting for you. ”

There was only darkness in front of him, but as he increased his vision, the landscape became clear quickly.

Where Cho Seung Woo pointed, two men and women were sitting on long wooden chairs waiting for me. My brother anticipated it, but I was surprised that there was Han So-young.

“… Got it. ”

I hesitated for a while. It wasn't that I didn't care who made the extreme choice, but I decided to focus on what was right in front of me since I was all right.

As I walked louder and louder, the two shapes became more and more certain. He was sitting on an old wooden chair, gazing endlessly at the river. The footsteps are deliberately loud, but there is no slight tingling.

I don't know about Han So-young, but my brother knows the story. It was a close guess. Because there's only one user with zero code activation, and not me.

Soon, I got close to where the wooden chair was, but I didn't sit. I made eye contact with Han So-young who was leaning sideways against the stone wall and turned her gaze.

The river that sucked in the night was terribly still. It was dark enough to make the viewer feel confused that it would be sucked in.

How long has it been?

“There you are.”

His voice was resting a lot. I wanted to say Moore, but I couldn't say anything.

I could barely open my mouth after picking my chest once.

“I think you know something I don't. ”

My brother was still looking at the river. I said nothing, but I nodded slowly to see if I knew what I was looking at.

“Just in case, you're back on Earth, right? ”

My brother put his head back together again without saying a word.

“Maybe.”

And I spoke in a very audible voice.

“Maybe you're right. ”

The moment I heard him admit it, my heart stopped. My hands start to tremble. I forcibly shove it in my pocket and purposefully inhale, then exhale. I was expecting it, but I didn't think so.

“What? You secretly used zero code on me? ”

I pretended to be a child.

“I really didn't know. Since when?"

However, we could not stop the speech from getting higher and higher.

On his forehead, he opened his mouth.

“I know, I know. You're gonna be very confused right now. And…"

“Never mind. Since when?" ”

I hung up on my brother. It meant that we should get to the point quickly, but on the other hand, it meant condemning.

“It's been planned for a long time. Of course I went ahead without you knowing. ”

He said calmly. My calm voice was very irritating for no reason.

I don't plan on returning to Earth once I've decided to return.

“I was leading the way, and I used zero code. ”

However, it doesn't make sense to swallow and swallow what happened without saying anything.

“But I didn't make the plan. Seraph.”

“What?"

“Seraph made a plan, and I executed it. ”

“ ……! ”

Suddenly, my throat became sore. It was hot as if it were going to explode right away. From the restaurant, the tortoise that I had been holding on to began to boil all at once.

“So Seraph and his brother are in this together? ”

That's why I started laughing at myself.

“Soo-hyun.”

“Ah, yes. Of course you have a reason. ”

“ ……. ”

“Tell me. I have no idea what a great plan this is. Well, at least I can hear you. ”

I don't want to do this in front of my brother, but my mouth keeps twisting.

“But you'd better explain it properly. I'm warning you, it's for me... ”

“I did it for you. ”

At that moment, I felt the strand of rationality that had barely survived snapping. The right hand that I put in my pocket when I woke up was about to grab my brother's collar.

After a short while, you turn close enough to strike the stone wall behind you.

Bang. Despite the last burst of power, the entire stone wall resounded.

I almost punched my brother. I couldn't believe it even if I did it myself.

I stared at my brother, short of breath.

“Why.”

Why?

It's a simple but fundamental question.

“Why did you do that? ”

He took his eyes off the river and looked at me.

“Why do you want to...! ”

“Let me ask you something. ”

This time, my brother stopped talking helplessly.

“Why did you save me? ”

“Excuse me?”

“You said that. You told me not to bring me back just before I died. But you saved my life. Why did you do that? ”

“ ……. ”

“That must be how you feel right now. ”

“ ……. ”

Suddenly, I was speechless. Obviously, that's what my brother said, and I didn't follow a will. Technically, I acted my own way. Because there was only one answer. For me, for you.

“Of course.”

My brother's words continued.

“I'm not saying I did a good job. Whatever the reason, whatever the excuse, it is true and it is clearly wrong. I will never deny it. ”

A low voice groans in tiredness. I continued to speak aloud to see if it was hard.

“Soo-hyun, I promise. What happened, why I had to do it. I'm going to reveal it all without subtracting... ”

He closed his eyes without being able to connect the words.

“So... ”

And I slowly pulled my head off and wrapped it around my face.
