56 – #056 A world where hard work is rewarded
Returned to the classroom.
It was embarrassing, but the lecture room looked the same as before.
“…That’s Yuri. For now-“
Crumble!
Before I could speak to her, the classroom door opened.
“Hey!!!”
“…Huh?”
Why are you out there?
I was about to say that, but I felt a sense of horror at the sight of those who came after me.
“Siwoo!!”
“As expected, Siwoo! …Is Chae Yu-ri there?”
“What is it? Why is Chae Yu-ri here?”
“No, why everyone…”
Am I dreaming?
Dead people are right in front of you.
The people I prayed for in their souls, who had died in that world, appeared with faces that were fine, not completely fine, and had just come back to life after suffering from malnutrition.
“Everyone, calm down. At times like this, it’s best for me to explain.”
“…Park Tae-seop?”
It’s a guy.
Otaku friend.
He was the one who told me various things about how to live as a hero in another world.
“Why is your body…”
“I’ve been bedridden for a year and a half. I know you have a lot to ask each other, but let’s check a few things before we ask each other.”
Park Tae-seop, who has lost weight, took out his smart phone and showed his calendar.
“How long did it take after defeating the Demon Lord?”
“……Four months?”
“That’s right. It fits perfectly. Anyway, a goddess, like an asshole…”
Park Tae-seop spits out a double curse at the goddess, and many of the motives behind her agree.
Of course, me too.
I tried to understand her situation while holding her hand tightly.
However, no matter how much I thought about it, I could not easily judge this situation with my common sense and reason.
“Do you want to put on a coat first?”
Park Tae-seop took off his coat and handed it to me, and as soon as I received it-
“Put it on.”
“…Yes.”
I gave it to Chae Yu-ri right away.
The eyes of the classmates who saw it were slightly distorted, but they were talking about something in their own way.
“What? Why are they doing that?”
“Isn’t it like that? Chae Yu-ri fought with me at the last minute.”
“…Hmph. But I hate him.”
I hear everything.
My body passed into this world as it was, but I could hear whispers as if the hero’s power remained in my body.
“Well… There must have been a lot going on there as well. I’ll tell you the situation first. Before that…”
A siren-like sound echoes outside.
The familiar sound on Earth, never heard in the other world, gave me chills as I felt that I had truly returned to Earth.
“Hey. People are crowding behind the ambulance over there? What is it?”
“Ha, damn it. How did you know? We were here right now!”
“It’s a big deal. You’re going crazy. Siwoo. …Chae Yu-ri. Let’s go to the ‘hospital’ for now.”
“Hospital? Why?”
“All of us ‘returners’ were in the hospital. To be precise, we were taken to the hospital from here.”
“……?”
“Actually, rather than that, it’s a situation where we have to run away from people’s eyes. Right now… You guys are too, but we’ve become a bit of a star right now, right?”
“What nonsense-“
Woaaa!!
A shout echoes outside.
When I looked out the window of the lecture room, wondering what kind of shouting it was, outside, a placard reading ‘Congratulations, return’ was fluttering.
“What is it?”
“I’ll go and explain. No, I’ll explain as I go, so get in the car.”
“You’re experimenting with something, aren’t you?”
“No, never. …But.”
Park Tae-seop pointed at my hand.
“Are you going to hold on?”
“…….”
Everyone’s look at me is an interrogative look.
I understand.
For them, they brought Hitler with them.
However, the person inside Chae Yu-ri’s body is not Chae Yu-ri.
Should I explain this or should I stop?
“…Just say this before you go down.”
I held Chae Yu-ri’s hand again.
“It’s all thanks to him, but he’s lost his memory, so don’t talk about it carelessly.”
“……?”
As soon as I came to Earth, I agitated my colleagues.
Her to protect her.
* * *
After several tests, I took in all kinds of information from the people surrounding me in a ‘double room’ bed in a high-end hospital room.
I was able to understand the situation through the words of my colleagues, books and Internet video sites, and information provided.
“So it was a system where our bodies return to Earth when we die?”
“Huh. Doesn’t it look like a beggar?”
“……Is the goddess an idiot? Shouldn’t I have said that?”
“Everyone has said that. Perhaps if we had said that we would return to Earth when we died, wouldn’t we have all died and tried to return to Earth? They must have worried about that. Something like beggars.”
Everyone is full of antipathy towards the goddess.
Me too, and Chae Yu-ri is the same.
“The day we were summoned to another world, there was a real uproar here. 108 People suddenly went missing. Not only my parents and relatives, but even the NIS and the US FBI came out to investigate.”
“What? Impossible…”
“It’s true. Suddenly, people disappeared from the sky as lights flashed. This is a supernatural phenomenon. Even NASA was talking about aliens and everything, and all sorts of conspiracy theories were spread.”
“Although she wasn’t an alien, she was a goddess from another world.”
“Yes. Everyone kept the scene and went wild, but the first person to die came over to this world. He became a vegetative state.”
“……?”
Park Tae-seop connected his smart phone to the TV in his hospital room and showed his picture.
-Return of the missing person! Where are they from?
-Presumed brain dead. Make sure you are in a vegetative state.
“When I came back, they were all clean and unscathed. The problem was that they weren’t even conscious.”
“Huh…”
Over time, everyone returned to Earth one by one.
Although no one came to consciousness and had to lie in a vegetative state, everyone was alive and breathing.
“Then, four months ago, everyone regained consciousness. Do you know when that was?”
“…When did you kill the demon king?”
“Yeah! As expected. Everyone believed it. That you killed the Demon King. Other than that, all 103 people who returned to Earth never had to regain consciousness at once.”
“…….”
So.
“You mean that as long as someone kills the Demon King, everyone will return to Earth…?”
“Yeah! Wow, I was really scared. Have you heard of Changhyun hyung’s story? I wondered what would happen after all the raiders died, but when I calculated the time, we woke up exactly two weeks later. For four months Everyone talked and hypothesized. Ah. They succeeded. The Undertaker buried the Demon King.”
“That’s right, but…”
I’m speechless because I’m so ridiculous.
Even if you want to get angry, you don’t even have the strength to scream because you’ve already been so angry.
All because the goddess was an idiot and a fool.
“Everyone is curious. The demon king fell, but no one knows how the demon king fell. Everyone has been telling people their stories for four months, but they say they don’t know how the ‘ending’ came about.”
“…….”
“How did you defeat the Demon King?”
“That’s…”
To be honest, it’s a little difficult.
After everyone died.
So, after all the raiding parties were killed.
I gathered my strength together with the last people left in this world and charged.
All I could say was that it was a miraculous fight.
Even though the heroes of this world died countless times, they opened the way for me, and I succeeded in picking the head of the demon king.
I was the only one there.
There was no Chae Yu-ri, Min Sena, Park Ha-young, or Hwang Rian.
But.
“…Does anyone really know?”
“Uh. There must be some way to know. It’s not like you can see the other world from here.”
“…It’s a bit embarrassing to talk about.”
If no one knows the ending.
“I just fought to the death. I gathered the people, gathered my strength, and ran toward the demon king. The demon castle was destroyed, and countless heroes… So the people of this world. Fighting alongside them… “
Wouldn’t it be okay to add a little laundry detergent to the ending?
“Together with Yuri, I killed the demon king.”
“…… Huh.”
“I don’t know what happened during the 4 months. After defeating the Demon King, I was with Yuri, and when I came to my senses, I was here.”
“No, that’s Siwoo.”
Chae Yu-ri, who was lying on the bed next to me, stretched out her hand to me in embarrassment, but I nodded her head once as she grabbed her outstretched hand again.
“Isn’t it?”
“…Yes.”
Yes.
This is a legitimate happy ending for the one who defeated the demon king.
The saintess spoke.
Wouldn’t it be right if the warriors who defeated the devil were rewarded?
“I almost gave up, but I was able to win because Yuri was with me.”
In return, I will wash Chae-yuri.
If it was Yuri Chae originally, of course she would say, ‘That didn’t come out until the end’, of course, but now Yuri Chae is a saint.
“By the way…What about the others?”
“Huh?”
“The other three besides us.”
I hit the ball.
Before they asked, I looked around with a face that I didn’t know anything about.
“Didn’t the other three… Come?”
“That’s what we wanted to ask.”
“What?”
“…Park Ha-young, Min Sena, Hwang Lian. How did the three of them go? At the end. They fought together… Didn’t they?”
“Uh.”
This can be answered with certainty.
“It didn’t show up until the end. I almost…Fighted it alone, but Yuri showed up.”
“What?”
“It’s complicated. It’s embarrassing to talk about it at that time, so don’t ask for details.”
I can see the eyes rolling.
Perhaps they are writing all sorts of novels in their heads.
Chae Yu-ri would appear and comfort me when I was mentally broken, and I would imagine that I would gain courage again or something like that.
“Yeah… Then they’re screwed up now.”
“Why?”
“You were the one we considered as the condition for returning to Earth.”
My classmates looked at me with grateful eyes.
“The way you held the funeral as the mortician was to send the body and soul back to Earth. Although he was brain dead.”
“……Then what about the other three?”
“I don’t know. …If I die, will I be able to return to Earth?”
“That means…”
“For life.”
She quietly opened her mouth.
“For the rest of my life, I might not be able to return to Earth…?”
Ah.
I almost laughed.
