MEMORIZE

Chapter 552 She was there. =========================================================================

The first thing I saw was a cave. A deep, wide burrow with artificial traces somewhere, not naturally created. As I was walking in a hurry, I reached the end of my career boundary.

But it doesn’t matter now. I looked back urgently. And as soon as I saw Ko standing with a blank face, I let out a sigh of relief.

Ko was stretching her hands weakly.

“Playing Ko?”

“…….”

“User High Performance!”

“…Ah. Soo, Soohyun?

Only then did Ko Yeon-ju look at me with his eyes wide open as if he had come to her senses. I immediately wrapped around Ko Yeon-ju’s shoulder and pulled her carefully inside. This is because there were Clan members who were still in the area because they were just out of their career boundaries.

After confirming that Sasha, Shin Jae-ryong, Kim Han-byul, and Woo Jung-min walked out in order starting with Ko Yeon-joo. I barely breathed a sigh, but I had a strong question. Why did he respond like that all of a sudden? You’re a great performer who doesn’t bat an eye at all the time.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. Suhyun. I didn’t know that….”

Ko shook her head vigorously and squinted. Rarely confused response for a high performance. Maybe there’s something else, but I decided to focus on what’s ahead of me.

“It’s okay. We can talk later, but first of all….”

“Yes, yes, I will. It’s really okay now.”

Ko Yeon-joo, who picked her breath calmly, bit her lips. A cold light passed through my eyes staring at the cave. Looking at it, I think it’s somewhat stable, so I turned to Hanbyul. Han-byeol immediately took out a jewel and began to memorize the spell.

“───. ───. ───. Jewel Light. White.”

At that moment, a bright glow came out of the jewel. The light, which appeared several times brighter than the ordinary light magic, quickly drove out the darkness in the cave. There was nothing particularly bothering with the mana detection, so I simply sorted out the form and strode inside.

It was quiet inside the cave.

No. It wasn’t just quiet. It has activated the senses of the whole body, as well as mana sensing, but nothing is felt and no sound is heard. Sometimes only the clatter of clans hitting the equipment is heard to be minimal. I felt as if I were walking in the void.

There’s only one way inside anyway. However, artificial traces found at the entrance suggest that there may be a secret room. So I groped one wall and kept walking along the road that followed.

“This reminds me of exploring in the past.”

By the time he had moved an additional 150 meters, someone had carefully spoken out. It was Shin Jae-ryong’s voice. I think he’s been trying to talk to me about the more rigid energy he’s had since his high performance.What?

“Pause.”

Just as I was trying to reply in moderation, I ordered a halt without delay. This is because I suddenly felt a strange feeling on the wall that I was stuttering steadily. The wall itself was bumpy, but it was still going by without any difficulty, but it felt like a sudden bump. As if the walls were dented by something.

“Hanbyeol, light this way. To the wall I’m touching right now.”

Then the jewels floating 10 meters ahead quickly returned and sprinkled bright light on the wall I pointed to. I stepped back three or four steps and stared at the whole wall.

And I could see it.

flesh

High

I want to.

All

Written in Korean, deeply engraved on the wall.

“…….”

“…….”

For a moment, there was silence.

What this means is too obvious. It’s probably a trace left by a survivor. It was easier to find than expected. …I want to live by the way.

“I want to live…”?”

“This is…. What is…?This is the Iron Mountains..”

Most of the Clan members were embarrassed to see if they had checked the letters on the wall. There are two people who remain calm. I exchanged my eyes with Ko Yeon-joo and Sasha once and quietly opened my mouth.

“Let’s go inside for now. Whatever it is, let’s look at it first and judge it.”

The Clan members still couldn’t hide the embarrassed light, but they gathered around, cluttering.

“…That’s desperate.”

With Sasha’s words, I resumed my progress inward.

The road wasn’t that long. It was only about 100 meters before the end of the cave was seen.

In the direction of the gem’s illumination, a large intermediate passageway and some of the inner space caught my eye at first glance. Mana detection still didn’t take anything. Soon as they went completely inside, Shin Jae-ryong and Woo Jung-min burst into a short exclamation.

The space at the end of the cave was bigger than I thought. The space looks 80 meters wide and 100 meters long. It’s like looking at a spacious room.

What is more surprising, however, was the various marks carved on the ground and surrounding areas. Dry black lights scattered around the Jung-gu area or pieces of cloth stuck in a corner. Traces of the user’s hands could be found in a number of numbers.

“I can’t believe it, but…I see signs of users.”

Shin opened his mouth with a low groan. He had a solemn voice as if he were trying to stay calm, but it was a tone accompanied by a slight tremor.

But I expected it anyway. Just as I was about to agree with the idea that I spoke well, I shut up for a moment. Ko Yeon-joo is staggering around the community. Then he stopped walking and slowly raised his head and looked up at the ceiling.

“……?”

As soon as I looked up, I wondered why.

“Oh…?”

“Well…!”

The Clan members burst out almost at the same time.

There was something drooping on the ceiling.

Something that looked long, was nothing short of a skeleton. One skull body, to be exact.

He is hanging alone from the ceiling with a rope wrapped around his neck. He couldn’t figure it out immediately because he was looking at the traces of the ground.

“Clan Road.”

Woo Jung-min’s husky voice calls me. I nodded my head in silence. Soon, Woo Jung-min gave a light beating with the sound of the rustling of iron. The dagger, which was shot through the air, cut off exactly the rope on the ceiling.

Flop!

It’s going to be green onion!

Some of the bodies that had fallen were crushed weakly as soon as they touched the ground. Maybe it’s been a while since he died. As the condition suggests, the body was a complete skeleton, except for barely covered clothing. At least, it shows the possibility that long hair on the skull will be a woman.

The only strange thing is that the left breast is bulging.

I looked down at the skeleton for a moment, and I looked up at the clothes that were hanging by a hair’s breadth.

After a while, I felt like I was grabbing a handful when I put my hand between my inner pockets. It is likely to crumble quickly if you put any force on it while being tawdry. Just in case, when I pulled it out, I could see the faded records of dust. It looks like more than a dozen pages.

“Suhyun, is this a record of survivors?”

“I guess so.”

I calmly punched my head when asked by a high performer. It’s not that it wasn’t, but that it was trying to save the land, and there were many things written in one record.

I looked around the Clan members for a moment, and calmly turned over a record. Round and pretty cursive writing catches my eyes.

We survived. I was able to survive after a lot of hard work. This is really luck. The discovery of this cave, the dinosaur-like creatures no longer follow it. And the fact that I’m a monk. Actually, I thought I shouldn’t have learned the word “gyeolgye,” but I never thought I’d use it at times like this. I think dinosaurs can’t read the lines either. I’m glad.

From what is written, it seems to be a survival diary for survivors. The beginning felt pretty calm.

It’s understandable to do it. Who would record that they are crazy in an urgent situation where their lives are at stake? Perhaps this record began to be written down after some stability was restored.

Two more survivors found today. There are 67 people in total now. I don’t know if I should like it or be happy. It’s not like food or water is infinite.』

At first, 67 people. There are 35 people left. In just one escape attempt, 32 people died. Was it too much?』

A fight broke out. However, Eun-sol managed to acknowledge each other’s claim through her sister’s mediation. You can’t go out the way you came in. I’ll die no matter what. However, it cannot stand this way. Because I starve to death.』

Eventually, Eun-sol led 31 people out. They say they are looking for a new way. It’s an inevitable choice at the moment. Please. Please. Please.』

Records were not carried out from day to day, but were written quite sparsely. By the way, Eunsol. I think it’s the user Go Eun Sol that Cho Sung-ho mentioned.

I decided to keep reading for now.

It’s been two weeks. He’s not coming back. There are only three people left.』

When I woke up, I couldn’t see Sora. Where is he? Don’t tell me… 설마

Eventually, Sora never comes back. Hyunjin said he would go out to find it. I told him not to go, but he eventually went out. I’m the only one left. …I’m scared. …

At first, there were 67 people. But now I’m alone.』

The record was made up of shorter sentences as time went by. I quickly skimmed through the rest of the contents.

It’s been three days since I was alone. I was sleeping today, and Hyunjin came out in my dream. Unusually, we were facing each other through the front door opening. That’s what my brother said. I’m telling you to refresh the boundaries. Don’t come out. And never, ever respond. He especially emphasized this phrase. …I don’t know what you’re actually talking about. However, my brother’s face was frighteningly stiff. Like a dead man.』

First of all, we need to change the boundaries. Don’t let anyone in.』

“If I didn’t hear it wrong, I definitely heard it today. Jina. Jina. We are back. But I can’t find my way. Someone loitering around the boundary and calling me. on and on and onwardly.

I heard something new today. At first, the voice of a man. Then it was the voice of a woman. Oh, my God. I’m sure you remember this road. Hmm. Do you think these guys have the wrong memory? What is it, you kites? Remember? How am I supposed to take this word?』

The record was cut off here. Maybe the last record is “I want to live from the wall.”

I looked up at the ceiling of the road. A rope that shakes in the middle with a snap. So this monk finally chose to kill himself.

“Clan Lord, do you have any unusual records?”

Suddenly, I heard Shin Jae-ryong’s voice. I smacked my lips once or twice and organized the records one by one.

It’s an unusual record. In fact, there is no unusual record for me. Rather than being unusual, it may be an accurate expression that there is a point. And the other thing is, I’ve got a solid clue that I might be able to use on this expedition.

Soon I quietly opened my mouth, slowly pushing the record into my arms.

“I don’t know, it’s not that unusual.?”

And that was the moment.

*

“How long do we have to wait?”

An annoying voice rang in the air. It was a loud voice as if everyone around me wanted to hear it.

The source of the voice is the Southern expedition, which has stopped for a while in front of the mountain range. Among them, he was a man with a big frown. Considering that the “no” pattern is drawn on the chest, it is clear that Musa Clan, or Musa Rod Ko Oh-hwan, is clearly a Musa Rod Ko Oh-hwan.

However, despite the obvious irritation, Sun Yoo-woon did not respond much. I just closed my eyes and opened my mouth in a low voice.

“Wait.”

“So simply….”

“All I’ve got is to stand by and watch my surroundings. If you come out of your career boundaries, you’ll have to take care of it, so just wait quietly.”

“No! It’s already been 30 minutes! You said you were going over that mountain today! But it’s already….”

Ko Oh-hwan, who was shouting out loud at the time, suddenly blurted the end of his words. This is because Seon Yoo-woon, who had been silent until now, instantly opened one eye and watched fiercely.

Suddenly, a cold sweat broke out on Ko Oh-hwan’s forehead. I thought it would be fine without the Medical Road, but when I think about it, the man in front of me was a huge user called the Divine Palace.

Then, as if the idea were right, Sun Yoo-woon’s arm aimed directly at Ko Oh-hwan.

“I’m the one who’s been delegated full power now. I’ll say it again. Keep your mouth shut.”

“Oh, no, I mean.”

“I told you to keep your mouth shut up. I won’t warn you any more.”

“…….”

Finally, I heard the sound of pulling the crossbow and Kerrick.

Ko Oh-hwan swallowed his saliva. And immediately shut up. Because I felt the sincerity in Sun Yoo-woon’s face. Rather, I want Ko Oh-hwan to say something.

Ko Oh-hwan nodded with a slightly sick and tired face. My whole body was trembling with the thrilling life felt in the middle of my forehead, but I could still turn around.

It was then.

Who’s there? Who’s there?

A voice flowed into the vanguard in the wind.

At the same time Ko Oh-hwan’s steps paused, Seon Yoo-woon’s body became stiff.

If you had someone…Please help me.

One thing for sure is that human nurture is clear.

Please, take it easy. Please…

But if you listen carefully, it was a strange voice that somehow felt a sense of alienation.

============================ Review of the work ============================

Oh. I’m sorry. I came home late because I had a meeting and dinner with people related to visual Nobel. Bow. _(__)_

But I think it was a fun and enjoyable time. I got a really interesting suggestion today. I liked the season and the teaser site, but the most interesting thing was the junction. So Soohyun has made a lot of choices so far, right? That’s where you cut the divergence. For example, leave Park Dong-gul. Or save Yoo Hyun-ah. Or kill Vivienne. And so on. 🙂 This can lead to a stem tail, so the ending can be different.(Of course, it’s not confirmed yet, but we’re still discussing it.)

I think it’ll be fun personally, but it’s true that I can’t even think of it. It’s a great job to make another story.

CEO: Now, then writer. That’s what you’re supposed to do?

Ro Yu-jin: Yes? I haven’t answered….

CEO: You just had coffee. That’s a yes.

Ro Yu-jin 😕

When I came to my senses, it turned out that I had agreed. So I’d like to ask for your help. What would it have been like if this was the case while watching the memorize. What would have happened if I did this? If you have any regrets, please write a short comment. I’m planning to decorate a new tree for that part, but I thought the readers might remember what I missed. 😀
