Chapter 336

Episode 336

Recently, Lee Jae-heon was reflecting greatly.

‘I lost my original intention.’

When Jaeheon Lee first remembered his past life, he was not as complacent as he is now.

It may be that my memory has become blurry due to the many accidents that have happened in the past, but didn’t I plan a little more carefully and efficiently before? He may have been even more impatient because he was not on good terms with the main character who held the key to completely escaping from the other side of the world.

‘If I hadn’t approached him carefully and carefully, I wouldn’t have been able to be recognized as a colleague by that disgusting protagonist, so I was that sensitive.’

However, perhaps Jae-Heon Lee now thought, ‘This is enough,’ or was he simply accustomed to his current life, and was not able to act as efficiently as he did back then. He was greatly shocked when he realized that he had been doing something that went against his own ideology.

‘Do you have feelings for me?’

At least it made me wonder if I had given affection to these soft chicks.

In fact, Jaeheon Lee did not find it strange to give affection to someone. Although I didn’t get along very well with my teammates from my previous life, there was at least a sense of camaraderie, so it couldn’t have been much different from the teammates in this world who cared for me almost at the level of childcare. When you get used to someone and it becomes part of your daily routine, it’s natural to become attached to them.

‘But being assimilated is another matter. It’s natural to feel responsible while taking care of soft chicks, but if I become that soft too, problems will arise.’

In his opinion, Lee Jae-heon had become soft enough, and the moment he realized that, he was overcome with an unavoidable sense of self-destruction. It’s not like your mental age is regressing, so what the hell is this? As soon as he realized that, Jaeheon Lee decided to calm down again.

“Ah, I found it!”

“....”

“Jaeheon Lee’s kids are over there.”

“Let’s go.”

In the end, I had to figure out what action would be most beneficial to me.

“You mean kids... are you saying you’re kids when you see a monster?”

Vivian asked with her eyebrows raised after checking the key ring monster and Pompitz, but neither Do-yoon Han nor Jae-heon Lee gave an answer. Although Han Do-yoon, who was possessed by the monster, did not know, Lee Jae-heon understood the horror that Vivian must have been feeling, but he just ignored it.

The purpose was to maintain the setting that ‘Lee Jae-heon’ was in a state of insanity.

‘It wouldn’t be good to show that I came to my senses right away.’

To be precise, it was close to having nothing to lose or gain. In any case, even if Lee Jae-heon were the only one to come to his senses while everyone was having a mental breakdown, he would end up being treated like a waste of time. Since I approached them in the first place to get on the main character’s bus, there was no need for me to carry all my luggage alone.

‘Then, first of all, we need to resolve the mental issues of the chicks...’

Even if ‘Lee Jae-heon’ went crazy, he shouldn’t have done the same to the other chicks. How dare you take a free ride. He decided to keep the concept of ‘Lee Jae-heon’ going crazy to catch the bus as much as possible, but to personally tighten the screws of the survivors as much as possible.

Therefore, the time for ‘Lee Jae-heon’ to come to his senses was only after the mental health of the other survivors had improved.

“long time no see.”

Kiing.

“...Yeah, it’s been a while.”

Drizzle.

I could feel the tangled, matted hair between my fingers. Even though it wasn’t a very pleasant feeling to touch, Jaeheon Lee didn’t bother to push away the pompitz that was approaching him.

“I meant to bring a tomahawk, sorry. “I forgot.”

This too has a cute taste in its own way.

“...If you’re that cute, how about we just take you with us?”

“Pets are not allowed in the garden.”

“Oh, sorry. “I forgot for a moment.”

As for forgetting, he must have been measuring his angles, thinking, ‘How crazy has this guy gone now?’ You might think it was excessive suspicion, but looking at Vivian’s gaze at me, it was an inevitable judgment.

‘Well, that guy must be anxious.’

Among the chicks, Vivian had a fairly efficient way of thinking and had not experienced any problems so far, so she was mentally sound.

At the time of the expedition to Eonhak High School, I would have expected that the matter would be resolved somehow, but in the end, everyone showed up in a panic even before entering the school, so I was quite worried.

‘In that sense... Vivian seems to be okay.’

Lee Jae-heon, who was massaging his pompitz, glanced at Kim Yeon-woo without being noticed.

“Now that I think about it, Vivian, you said you came to look for materials to build a house, right? “I will help you.”

“Oh, thank you. Humidity doesn’t matter, so please make it as sturdy as possible. About this size...”

“I understand.”

Well, it seemed like there was nothing to worry about here either.

“The baby has come out... Wow! ah! “Don’t bite!”

Kkeeeeeeeee!

“Sorry sorry! I won’t touch it! “Sorry!”

Han Do-yoon is also not in a state that is worth worrying about.

‘At that level, even if something happens, I’ll take care of Kim Ki-jeong. If Kim Ki-jeong is secured, we have a person with detection capabilities... If any circumstances arise, I wonder if we can once again join the exploration team.’

If he returns to reality and realizes that he was heavily dependent on a younger man, he will likely feel ashamed and even have the desire to commit suicide. However, no matter what happens in the future, Kim Ki-jeong in the other world felt a sense of security in Do-yoon Han. Although Han Do-yoon is younger than Kim Ki-jeong, he seemed to feel like a kind of protector.

If this happens, Lee Yun-byeol, who is close to Kim Ki-jeong, will also be cared for.

‘Once Lee Yun-byeol’s spirit is secured, I think he will naturally be able to take care of the two kindergarten students... Azalea, who gave affection to the children, will also join him. ‘Isn’t it a bit conscienceless to entrust Kwon Yeon-hee to that?’

Still massaging the Pompitz, Jaeheon Lee mentally separated the team of survivors who were united as one. I was staring blankly at an ugly yet cute puppy lying down and being cute.

“Don’t keep looking. “It’s harmful to your health.”

“No....”

It was also the right thing to say to the weak ‘Lee Jae-heon’, so I just kept my mouth shut.

A skinny body with arms much longer than legs. Blackened skin. Eyes wide open. A lamp with eyes held in one hand. This monster, which gave me a strange feeling just by looking at it, often behaved like a puppet with no strings attached. The skinny monster looking limply at someone felt like a mummy.

If you keep watching it, your health will likely deteriorate. Mainly mental health though.

‘More than that... Considering that he behaved like that last time, it seems like there’s a rule...’

Kim Ki-jeong looked at them with a shocked look on their faces when they had probably been to the pharmacy one day, when Jeong In-ho was also in his own right. I once asked for help. The reason was that Han Do-yoon was showing excessive attachment to the key ring monster.

‘When I heard the request to separate the two and looked at the key ring monster, it behaved like a doll whose strings had fallen. ‘What on earth prompted you?’

‘Lee Jae-heon’ frowned and took Kim Yeon-woo’s hand away.

“Put it away.”

“Then how about you stay away from the monster? The same goes for Han Do-yoon.”

“Oh really. I said it’s okay. Clean it up. Huh? Hold on with your strength? Are you making fun of adults now?”

“Even if you say that, it’s not that scary.”

“....”

Look at this?

‘Is this young chick making fun of adults?’

Jaeheon Lee, who felt his backbone getting warm, almost reflexively started acting. The tips of his fingers trembled and he tried to pull Kim Yeon-woo’s hand, which was covered in his own blood, but he pretended that he had no strength and pretended to be trying in vain.

Kim Yeon-woo must have sensed something strange there and gently removed his hand.

“....”

“....”

‘Jaeheon Lee’, who made eye contact with her, opened his mouth as if he was about to say something, but then sighed.

“...Thank you for cleaning it up.”

“No, that... I’m sorry.”

Seeing Kim Yeon-woo slightly avoiding his gaze, Lee Jae-heon internally laughed at the other person. In fact, the percentage of empty laughter was greater than that of ridicule.

‘What the fuck... these bastards are really fucking pudding.’

Even if you pretend to be a little mentally challenged, those who are reasonably quick-witted will automatically bow their heads. It seemed like he was being considerate considering the fact that the environment surrounding ‘Lee Jae-heon’ was unethical and unreasonable, but to him, it was just ridiculous and bizarre.

‘This is a world where such modifications work.’

Jaeheon Lee internally applauded the generosity of the people living in this world. He scratched his neck as if he was annoyed that his condition was discovered, and then looked at the keyring monster again.

“...I just saw it because it was strange.”

In this case, it would have been better to at least mention the characteristics of the key ring monster.

‘It will also serve as a foreshadowing. Oh yeah. Lee Jae-heon talked about the danger of this monster like that back then... That way, when something happens later, you’ll be able to get your mind back on track.’

After finishing his thoughts, Jaeheon Lee continued.

“Should I say I feel bad? It made me lose my mind a little...”

“Oh, that’s right. “I felt the same way when I first saw him.”

“....”

‘Lee Jae-heon’ slowly closed his eyes and opened them.

“...I’m tired.”

Well then, let’s organize it.

‘The main purpose of the event is to give a sense of accomplishment to the protagonist and other survivors.’

The condition is that the main character, Jung In-ho, must get enough rest to avoid being completely broken before proceeding, and that there must not be more than two regressions. If possible, it would be better for the mental health of the returnees to finish within this session.

In that sense, the role of ‘Lee Jae-heon’ is quite important. Now, the stakes for ‘Lee Jae-heon’ have already grown too high for him to be treated as a third-rate villain extra. However, I have gone too far into the role of advisor as I previously defined it....

“....”

“...How about we slowly go back? I confirmed that these guys are okay, and it’s a little ominous at this point. “It would be best for you to rest again before trouble arises.”

“All right.”

He nodded at Vivian’s words and stood up.

‘I guess it would be enough if I died and came back to life.’

Jaeheon Lee concluded simply.

The villain of the event will be Han Do-yoon’s attachment monster and the apartment’s eye monster, and the setting will probably be inside an apartment complex. The participants were the main characters and supporting actors. I thought the final content would be something like ‘Save Lee Jae-heon.’

“It’s hard.”

“....”

“Oh, that was a slip of the tongue.”

It was probably Lee Jae-heon’s last utterance.

I’m going to come to my senses from now on.
