Chapter 282

Episode 282

The reason why Yoon Garam did not use his abilities even after realizing them was firstly because of his accustomed caution and secondly because of the gaze of people around him. She needed someone who would accept her strange constitution without worrying too much about it.

Fortunately, Woo Joo-young was a person who fit those conditions quite well.

“Woah! Boss, boss, fire in your hands! fire! Argh! fire extinguisher...!”

“Ahahahaha!”

It had been such a long time since I had seen such an ordinary reaction, so it felt refreshing. Even after Woo Joo-young was introduced to Yoon Gar-ram’s abilities and cleared up the misunderstanding, he did not think that he would be hurt by her fire, asking, “So, boss, it doesn’t hurt?”

‘No, even if you are afraid of my fire, you probably thought it was rude to show such a thing.’

Woo Woo-young was clearly afraid of Yoon Gar-ram’s strong and brilliant fire. However, that was a feeling that only applied to Yoon Garam’s fire and did not extend to Yoon Garam who lit it. At least that’s how it seemed to Garam Yoon.

It was a pleasant thing.

“Hey, it’s open...! “This is open!”

“Please go in first and hold the door.”

The things burned by Yoon Garam’s fire did not produce smoke, and although it was sometimes dangerous, the flames did not harm them. Even though it was difficult to control the intensity of the fire, Woo Woo-young and Yoon Gar-ram were only a little hot and did not get burned.

“Wow, why are you chasing me even though my body is burning...!”

The toy monsters that chased after them, burning black and melting as if they had no sense of pain, were quite scary. The sight was so bizarre that even Yoon Garam had hiccups, but they were still able to reach the emergency exit.

As soon as Yoon Garam came in, Woo Sooyoung closed the door and shouted.

“Please lock the door! “There’s no lock?!”

“If the emergency exit has a lock, isn’t it subject to reporting...? Oh, there it is. Woo Woo-young, please step aside!”

“Why does this look so complicated...!”

“If I just turn this one....”

Crash.

The two fell to the floor with the sound of the door being locked.

“...Why is there that movie? A child’s doll is chasing me with a knife...”

“I know. “I saw it before.”

“Well, I’ve never seen it before. “I just felt like that...”

The fear was even more severe as the toys, which had mutated into strange shapes and even caught fire, chased after them. Woo Woo-young and Yoon Gar-ram were able to quietly go down the emergency exit after sitting right behind the door and calming their pounding hearts.

And at the end, fortunately, there was Kang Min-ah.

“Garam, Team Leader Woo!”

“Mr. Kang Min-ah...! “How can we get here...!”

“I came here because there was a fire in a building. That person, Garam Yoon, knows how to start a fire...! Are you hurt anywhere? Ah, team leader’s hand...”

Only then did Woo Joo-young realize that his hand had been greatly chafed.

“It was okay when I didn’t know, but why do I feel so bitter when I find out...?”

“It’s like that with all wounds.”

“...Burdock....”

When I saw Kang Min-ah’s face, I guess it felt like she was alive, and the anxiety and fear I had been suppressing inside the toy store slowly came back to me. Woo Joo-young tried to control his nervousness by crying like he did when he first entered the other side of the world.

The people around me who soothed my restlessness were also quite a source of comfort.

“Thank you. Everyone must be having a hard time, but I’m the only one acting foolish like this....”

“Because it’s your first time working in the behind-the-scenes world, team leader. If things had gone as planned, they wouldn’t have come... It’s truly amazing that they even participated in the search team. “Don’t be like that.”

“Thank you so much.”

Then a question suddenly occurred to me.

“...But was it the weekend when you escaped from the other world?”

“yes?”

“No, you all didn’t miss a day without saying a word or called in sick... Ah, Kwon Yeon-hee did make a bet. First of all, everyone went to work. “If I escape, will it be the weekend?”

“...no? “It was a weekday?”

“...?”

Woo Woo-young asked with a confused look on his face.

“But you went to work...?”

“Well, if you leave carelessly, it’s hard to catch up later... You have to check what happened while you were away. “It’s not just about living and dying today.”

“...It’s true, it’s true, but still... no... that...?”

I had already assumed that Jaeheon Lee’s sick leave was due to injuries to his legs and abdomen, but their circumstances at work were a separate issue. When Woo Joo-young heard that the survivors of the underworld went to work immediately after escaping, Woo Soo-young’s face became indescribably pale.

“Yeonseok also came to work....”

“Yeonseok is especially an intern. “I would have been more careful about falling in.”

“I feel some inexplicable guilt. “Ahhhh...”

They relaxed while chatting inside the emergency exit, and carefully came outside, thinking that they couldn’t be late any longer. Fortunately, there were no monsters nearby.

Garam Yoon muttered as if he was anxious.

“Is it that difficult to die just once...? “Is that really more important than me?!”

Why do you think it’s so difficult to die for your subordinates that you endure it like that? I asked that much. Unlike Lee Jae-heon, this is the eternal end for him.

The possessed person fell down with his neck covered in blood. The bleeding from the neck where the doctor had stabbed was so severe. It was an extremely weak body.

“Daejangniim... I don’t want to die....”

“You must be crazy.”

“I don’t even have a name. I don’t even have a name. “I can’t leave anything behind... but you’re not the boss.”

“Ha...”

“It doesn’t matter if you die.”

My mind was blurry. The injuries he received from the monsters that attacked him on his way here and the pressure of the other side of the world itself drove him crazy. Moreover, the crazy doctor even pierced his throat with a scalpel, so it would be even more surprising if he didn’t die after doing this. With such a shabby body.

“...Captain...”

Actually, I didn’t want to fight like this if we met again.

“I am me.”

Even though he was an ugly subordinate who always annoyed you, wasn’t there a time when he got along well and was scolded and mistreated? We respect you, adore you, and pursue you. It wasn’t just a matter of performance or grades, it was because there was no one who cared for us as much as we did.

To our shame, we couldn’t smile when you died. The end of life is something that should be celebrated joyfully, but it withers like a spoiled chick and eventually cries...

“We... “What a boss.”

So anyway, I was happy to see you again.

“...Together....”

I thought maybe we could go back together.

I thought about it.

“....”

That’s right.

* * *

“...What....”

Ha Seong-yoon, who had been blinking as he watched the body quietly disappear without a sound, immediately came to his senses and ran to Lee Jae-heon. When I looked at Lee Jae-heon with his bloody hands, surprisingly, I found that he was still alive.

It was nothing short of a miracle that I was still alive despite having a large hole in my solar plexus, but I was nervous.

“Damn it, I don’t even have any medicine...! Jaeheon Lee, are you conscious?”

“....”

“Yes, it would be even weirder. “Wow, how did something happen like this...”

He was breathing lightly and his heart was beating, but breathing with crushed and torn organs was truly next to impossible. Even if the situation had not been like this, Ha Seong-yoon would have flirted with writing a thesis on Lee Jae-heon. It was such an absurd situation.

“If I had known this would happen, I would have let the pharmacy buy more medicine.”

The medicine that heals bones and heals flesh could have been used for Lee Jae-heon’s injury, but out of concern that Lee Jae-heon’s condition would worsen, he was prevented from buying extra medicine. It was the best at the time, but it was frustrating when things turned out this way.

The good news is that Lee Jae-heon continues to hold on, as if he has no intention of dying....

“...Ah.”

At that moment, a thought crossed the doctor’s mind.

“Is there that fruit here too...?”

It is a fruit that heals injuries by taking over all the pain of a small, round person. According to Lee Jae-heon, this fruit, which is effective but has major side effects, is so common that it can be found anywhere in the underworld. It was likely somewhere around the hill behind the school.

Without even thinking about it further, Ha Seong-yoon got up from his seat.

“Teacher Ha Seong-yoon...!”

“...Mr. Munsan?”

The person who appeared with Munsan-gun sticking out between the trees was Azalea, and her hands were full of unidentifiable grass.

“Are you okay?”

“Oh my, my goodness, look at that. “There is no body.”

“But still...! “You’re still alive, right?”

Before Ha Seong-yoon could open his mouth, Jin Dal-rae approached Lee Jae-heon. Ha Seong-yoon asked in a daze as he watched her tearing the grass here and there.

“What...are you trying to do?”

“What doctors hate the most.”

“Folk remedies?”

“You’re quick to notice.”

“no.”

“Just stay and somehow it seems like it will work out.”

And it became real.

“Look, I thought it would work.”

“....”

Why?
