403. I trusted too much 1
alexandrite.
No, Ma Cheol-hyeon and Shin Yu-jun.
When I asked what kind of relationship the two had, it was a former colleague and at the same time an enemy relationship in which one side killed all the other colleagues.
“That’s why you hate it so much.”
Originally, it is more trembling to be shot by someone you know than to be shot by someone you do not know.
“...”
Alec hung his head, not answering.
It would be sad to have lost all of my colleagues and survived alone, but how would you feel if the killer who killed your colleagues was a human you believed to be your colleagues?
“It’s a good story, after all.”
Then Alec opened his mouth.
“Did I tell you before? Black magician dimension movers like me are being chased by the church until they get legal qualifications.”
No matter how much ‘enjoyers’, there were many cases where they wandered around in groups in the beginning because they lacked experience and skills at the time they had just arrived on the Azul Continent.
In the early days, Alec also went around with other dimension movers, and it was said that the scale was quite large, so it was at the level of a guild beyond a party.
“It’s not that I don’t have skills either, so I was treated preferentially at first. But after realizing that if there is a black magician in the party, they will be attacked by the cult, and they treat it as cold food.”
That’s why there were many black magicians who were abandoned from the group, and black magicians who were abandoned like that usually met the end of death by the church if they didn’t gather together.
“And I was almost abandoned for being a threat to the guild, but Kim was the first to oppose it.”
-You want to leave Cheolhyun behind?
– How could you say something like that...?
-You’re our colleague!
– Although the attack of the church is scary... it wasn’t to the extent that we couldn’t win if we all joined forces! But it’s hard for Cheolhyun alone!
“It was the same back then.”
Kang Seung-hyun recalled the first time he met Kim Ho-jung.
A strange man who is timid and weak, but does not put up with injustice.
“To be honest, until then, I looked down on Kim hyung, didn’t I? I thought he was a weak and clumsy guy who was of no help.”
“It was garbage.”
“I don’t think that’s what your brother would say.”
So there were a few times when I openly ignored them, and there were quite a few times when I tickled them.
Nevertheless, Kim Ho-jung defended Alec.
Even though Alec was big on himself, he thought it was unfair for a colleague to be kicked out like this.
“Kim hyung is a really good person. I don’t know anyone else, but I can trust this hyung until the end... I thought that.”
From then on, Alec said that he sincerely trusted and respected Kim Ho-jung.
“Oh, I know that. Reliability meter.”
“But the baby killed Kim.”
Quack!
Alec clenched his fists as he gritted his teeth.
“Not even once, but twice!”
That’s why Ma Cheol-hyeon could never forgive Shin Yu-jun.
If Kim Ho-jung hadn’t acquired the black beast ability, he would have really died this time.
“What the hell happened to a tailor who went round and killed all his other comrades?”
“...I trusted that bastard too much.”
“Excuse me?”
Alec continued the story with a bitter face.
– Alec is now covering his eyes with his white, fluffy hair, but he says
“Huh. nice!”
“I didn’t do anything, so what’s nice?”
“Because I’m going to have a nice day ahead.”
In the past, Ma Cheol-hyun, like other Koreans, had black hair and his bangs were pulled back, and he had a completely different appearance from now.
– Personality is the same.
-of course. Why do you think it would be different?
After the black magician’s expulsion, Ma Cheol-hyeon and Kim Ho-jeong left the guild on their own feet.
However, they did not leave lonely, and there were several people who agreed with the two.
It was because they also felt it was unfair to be kicked out of the group because they were black magicians, and at the same time they liked Kim Ho-jung’s humanity.
“I’ll check the condition of the equipment.”
“Please be smooth.”
The blood that flowed from Ma Cheol-hyeon’s fingertips along with black magic transformed into a rake, and Shin Yu-jun took out a giant pair of scissors and charged at the boss monster.
Fu-wook!
Shaaaaaaa!!
The two never made a promise to each other, but they started attacking each other in front and behind.
“Kieaaaa!!”
[Amas King Lizard], unable to withstand the sharp rakes and scissoring coming from both sides at high speed, gave out a final scream and collapsed.
Wow!!!
“Ma Cheol-hyeon, Shin Yu-jun! This side is over!”
“You guys are really me as well. What kind of boss mob do you two use together?”
“that’s right. I feel sorry for leaving the boss to the two of you each time and only trying to catch the small fish.”
As the two defeated the boss monster, nearby colleagues also approached the two with happy faces.
-I was pretty close with him.
“Thank you for today! Thanks to you, I fought comfortably.”
“I’m more grateful for saying thank you every time for the obvious.”
“But if you don’t say thank you every time, you become arrogant.”
“who?”
“I mean myself...”
“I think that’s the most arrogant thing to say.”
Originally, due to the nature of the profession, it is not easy for blood mages to party with ordinary people because of their dark magic.
[Weaving – Silver Horse Cloth]
Shin Yoo-jun, a tailor, was able to make silver horse cloth, so he could fight alongside him and was the best partner to prevent damage to other colleagues.
-Until that happened.
“Oh, I am going to die. I can’t walk anymore.”
“Cheers for a safe return today!”
It was when Ma Cheol-hyeon’s party got out of the dungeon after defeating the boss monster as usual.
“I’ll have to sleep tonight.”
“I’ll get you some firewood!”
“Who has leftover food? I have nothing to eat.”
“I have rat pouches made from real rats, would you like to eat them?”
“Eat yourself.”
It was late at night, so instead of going to town, they decided to pitch a tent and camp nearby.
“Hyung Park, please light the fire.”
“Am I a lighter? Use a match.”
“It’s rude to call a person a lighter... but wouldn’t it be respectful to call a lighter a person?”
“what?”
Roaring!
Instantly enraged, Park □□ activated the flame skill in anger.
“thanks!”
“Aren’t you coming?”
Ma Cheol-hyeon quickly lit a cigarette and jumped off the tree using a tree as a stepping stone.
“I’m borrowing a cigarette for this taste.”
Ma Cheol-hyeon, who was smoking a pain-relieving cigarette in a secluded place, suddenly looked up at the night sky.
Twinkling stars came into my eyes as if they would pour down at any moment, which cannot be easily seen from Earth.
‘Feel so good.’
The taste of enjoying a quiet night in the woods.
The bonfire faintly felt in the distance and the chattering voices of colleagues.
‘If this daily life continues, there’s nothing more I could wish for.’
It was a time when Ma Cheol-hyeon was enjoying the night scenery while thinking about this.
‘huh?’
I felt something catch on my toe.
I looked down for something, but I couldn’t see anything.
However, there was a sense that there was something in the ground beneath my feet that I couldn’t see.
At the time, I hadn’t gotten a job as a fortune teller, but it was true that I had an aptitude for it, so now that I think about it, I think I sensed it with my fortune-telling ability.
‘what?’
Ma Cheol-hyeon felt puzzled and dug the ground.
