Chapter 599 The renegades, to death … is a man who fought to death.. =========================================================================

Inside the dark pit.

King Shin is dying.

‘I’m…

Another me, lying on the floor and gazing.

Another I pulled Elixir out of my arms.

“I wish King Shin would live.”‘

Open the cap and tilt the bottle without showing any hesitation.

Another me feeding Elixir, really worried about Sin.

At that moment.

“!”

I suddenly came back to my senses. I opened my eyes right away. Looking around, I can see the tent that came back late at night.

A table in the middle, a shroud-covered entrance, a chair, etc. Everything was the same. Nothing has changed.

…then what happened? Maybe he had a dream or something like that.

Suddenly the air touching the flesh felt cold. At the same time, a layer of fatigue weighs heavily on the whole body.

But instead of sleeping more, I chose to get out of bed. I didn’t think I could fall asleep for some reason, and even if I forced myself to fall asleep, I wanted to refuse to dream the same dream as before. I’ve been having a lot of trouble lately..

As I walked outside after walking the tent, I could still see the dusk of dawn.

At this time of day, it is soon time for the primary expedition groups to act. Although no specific instruction has been given yet, users who participated in the pit attack are likely to wait still today.

Wouldn’t it be better to move your body and forget your thoughts, and join the exploration team? Just like yesterday.

Eventually, I set the morning schedule as my first thought, and slowly moved toward the north guard post. If you’re waiting around there, you’ll run into the search groups trying to get out like yesterday.

However, as a result, my prediction was only half right.

“Purpose. Exploration of perimeter boundaries and key points.”

“C – Group 1 total 12 members. Investigating Joy Eastantel Lowe’s Lee Jong-hak and 11 others confirmed.”

“I checked the General’s permit records.”

“You may leave.”

Users standing guard in the north have completed a simple verification process. Lee Jong-hak nodded as if he knew it and sent a signal to the security guards to wait for a while. And slowly he looks back at me and sighs deeply.

“Whoo. I’m sorry, but I refuse to say it. Commercial Road.”

“User Lee Jong-hak.”

“No, I can’t. I really appreciate your offer to help me explore, but I’ll respectfully decline it this time.”

“…….”

Lee Jong-hak, the team leader of Group C – 1’s search team, not only has a firm voice but also shakes his head vigorously. I tilted my head at the obvious expression of my opinion.

“No, why….”

“The quest is a task assigned to us. But the mechanical rods are not included in the cage. You know.”

“But yesterday….”

“Mercury Road. Please.”

Lee Jong-hak, who doesn’t listen to me until the end and says no. I couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded. It wasn’t like this when I asked to join the expedition yesterday. No, he welcomed me with a fuss.

Then they say no from the start.

You let me go out with a good smile yesterday, but why not today? That’s all of a sudden.

“…Save me.”

It was then.

Lee Jong-hak suddenly grabbed my shoulder and asked me in an endless mournful voice. I don’t know what happened in English, but I couldn’t keep my mouth shut because I looked really desperate.

“I mean. I went on an expedition yesterday and my Clan Lord broke a lot, you know?”

Huh? It’s broken? The Clan Road of Ethnology…Of course it’s Han Soyoung.

“No, Istantel Low Road, why….”

“It’s because of the Commercial Road.”

“……?”

“Didn’t I tell you to take only those who didn’t participate in the pit attack? Then why do you hold onto the strict mechanical rod and leave? Like this, I swear like this.No, you didn’t swear!

Suddenly, Lee Jong-hak raised his voice to the fullest.

“But our Clan Lord, once he’s angry, he’s very scary! Do you understand? No, you don’t! I’m not the only one who’s been attacked!”

Lee Jong-Hak keeps saying that, tapping his chest, and feeling unfair.

…that’s it. I know that. Han So-young said in an emotionless voice that she had done wrong one by one.Well, it’s a little scary.

“Couldn’t I have told you the truth? User Lee Jong-hak didn’t come to me, but I asked him to come to me.”

“Yes, that’s right! Yes, of course! That’s exactly what I said! But do you know what they’re saying when you say that? No matter how hard you say that, did you just take it? And!”

Lee Jong-hak, who was suddenly complaining, suddenly stopped talking and suddenly calmed down his face to look as expressionless as possible. Then…

Wait. What about that face?

“Anyway, isn’t it user Lee Jong-hak that you allowed? So don’t try to put the blame on the Commercial Road for nothing. …and that’s how I got dumped again!”

Lee Jong-hak, like Han So-young’s way of speaking, spoke in a slightly high and low voice. I almost burst into a big laugh for a moment, but I could barely hold it in. Han So-young couldn’t have said that, but it was quite funny to think that she did.

“Do you know why I’m really angry?”

Now, Lee Jong-hak’s mouth has not stopped once, trying to solve the problem.

“Oh, yeah. Even though it’s a tough world, people can worry about it in their lives. By the way, These days, my sides are freezing and I’m dying of coldness, so if you two do it like that, is that all you have to do?”

“…Yes?”

“Hooray for the Solo Unit! Hooray! Hooray!

“…….”

…and out of the blue, I heard words that were quite out of focus, but I had no choice but to stay still. It was too sad to tackle because the voice of hurrah was too sad.

Lee Jong-hak, who blew himself up once, said, “Hmm.” Soon, he coughed in vainly.

“…Come to think of it, my colleagues are waiting. Then I’ll get going now. Commercial Road.”

“Wait a minute….”

“I hope you understand my position, anyway.”

“…….”

Eventually, Lee Jong-hak bowed his head and turned weakly and walked away. Without being able to resolve each other’s misunderstanding.

I couldn’t catch that kind of dissimilarity. No, I couldn’t hold onto it. I don’t know why, but I strongly thought that solving the misunderstanding is the process of killing Lee Jong-hak twice.

“…….”

With Lee Jong-hak’s departure, the morning schedule that he had set so far went wrong.

Suddenly, the cool dawn air is carried by the wind and passes by.

…where to go now. I don’t want to stay still like this, so I’ll have to do something. You want to go to the casualty department?

Suddenly, Shin Jae-ryong and Helena crossed my mind. Both were seriously injured, but fortunately, they were treated properly and did not harm their lives.

It’s not just him. During the night, I could finally hear that the messenger from the management office had come to his senses. Although they could not say much because they complained of weak dizziness as soon as they woke up (they had to be almost pushed out by the priest’s remark that stability was the first priority).

The current time is a little early, but I think it’ll be okay now.

Thinking so, I immediately turned around and walked to the casualty center. It was not that difficult to find a tent where the two clan members were recovering, as they had already visited once this morning.

“Uh, Clan Lord?”

But the moment I slid into the tent, I had to face a bit of a surprise.

Helena cannot be seen where she has gone, and she is sound asleep, occupied by Ansol. And in the cot next to it, King Shin was staring at me with his upper body up. Looking at the food bowl on his thigh, he must have been eating.

“D, come on in.”

Shin, who hurriedly wiped his mouth, said, cleaning the bowl quietly. Since this has happened, I thought it would look a little weird if I went out of here, so I decided to go in without refusing. But I’m a little sorry, so I’ll have to leave early.

“It’s still very early. You must have been very hungry.”

“Yes, I’ve been starving all day. What can I do, Byeol-soo? Hahaha.”

As he sits on the outside of the bed and talks, he smiles and bends his face. Seeing Shin Jae-ryong’s wrinkle-free smile made me feel a little uncomfortable, but I managed to suppress it and forced myself to smile.

“It’s a good thing. If you want to eat, it’s proof that you’re healthy.”

“Yes, I think so, too. Oh, have you eaten, Clan Lord?”

A sudden question. My heart ached for a moment.

Technically…It’s not that I haven’t eaten at all, but I’ve only had a couple of drinks. I had no appetite and felt uncomfortable, so I couldn’t eat well.

“It’s just… It’s not meal time yet.”

“Well, I guess so. But it looks like they’re ready to eat at any time.”

“Because it’s the Injuries Control Center. By the way, where’s Helena?”

“You don’t have to worry, Miss Helena. Since I woke up, I’ve been complaining that I’m dizzy, and eventually I went out for a walk.”

“You don’t have to worry as you say.”

“Ha ha. Oh, Miss Sol just fell asleep. You’re probably exhausted from nursing us all night.”

Well, I guess so. I’ve been nursing all night.

Come to think of it, I have something to talk about with Ansol.But it’s too much right now.

Right. I guess the 2nd round of attack is over. I won’t be too busy for a while, so it won’t be too bad to take it easy.

After a brief look at the sleeping Ansol with a colorful, even breathing sound, I stared at Sinnyong Palace on the road.

“Anyway, I’m glad it looks good. In particular, Hyun was really worried.”

“Oh, I thought I’d be hated. But I’m glad you were worried. Hahaha.”

I’ve decided to leave the room now. It’s safe to say that you’re almost recovered from eating or taking a walk. Perhaps by tomorrow I’ll be able to get back on track, so I’ll just have to deal with the rest of the work, or what I have to do.

At least now I want to let you rest well.

I slowly lifted myself up.

“Oh. Are you up?”

I nodded my head at the tone of asking if I was leaving already.

“Yes, rest is still a priority, and the food will cool down. I’m sorry to interrupt your meal.”

“Oh, wait a minute. Clan Load.”

“What?”

“Before you go…”Actually, I have a question. May I ask?”

Shin opened his mouth quickly. It was a voice that I thought was a little bit urgent.

Anyway, there was nothing to be bothered about, so I tapped my chin lightly.

“Sure. Go ahead.”

“That’s….”

“……?”

“By any chance, when you saved me, didn’t you see anyone else around you?”

Another user?

I was still lost in thought, feeling curious.

Was there?

No, I don’t.

You may not have seen it because you were concentrating on Shin Jae-ryong, but there was only one sign that was identified at the time.

“I’m not sure, but I don’t think there was. At least around here.”

“Well…is that so….”

Is there something going on? Suddenly, Shin Jae-ryong’s face was filled with water. But it was only a moment.

“Okay, I’m sorry I asked you something I shouldn’

Shin, who laughed bitterly soon, nodded calmly, removing the shadowy darkness.

I shrugged to mean I didn’t care.

“And….”

And just as I was getting out of the tent.

“Thank you so much for saving me. Clan Load.”

Once again, Shin Jae-ryong’s voice continued.

Thank you for saving me.

At the moment, I had no idea how to react, but it came out even before I finished thinking.

“…….”

A sudden loss of strength in the whole body comes over the body. At the same time, my mind got all mixed up.

But while feeling a little wobbly, I forced my legs to move.

…where else should I go now.

No, before that, why am I wandering around in the morning?

Time goes by.

While walking in a daze, I suddenly saw a fence that had been set up. It has already reached the outer part of the campsite.

As I tilt my head up and look up at the sky, I can see the blue sky that slowly dawns It was a little blurry because the dawn is not over yet.

I slowly sat on the fence, took out a punch at the beginning of the year and bit it in my mouth. And I was still lost in thought.

The dream I had this morning.

And thoughts about him.

In fact, I didn’t really want to face it. Maybe that’s why he’s been deliberately wandering and trying to avoid it.

Because it was something to do with my own inner self.

From the first to the second now.

I’ve killed a lot of guilty users, but on the other hand I’ve killed innocent users.

I have saved my colleagues, but I have lost them that much.

Repeated experiences of such processes resulted in indelible inner wounds.

In order to endure the wounds that were continuously carved, I had to find a way to live on my own.

Maybe it was from then on.

Drawing a line, separating it with black-and-white logic, and starting to associate users with tools.

One of the values and so, it plain been in the world of my own motto as the hall.

When I came back to the second round, there was only one thing I decided to do.

It’s a kind of purpose that I’m going to focus on my brother and Han So-young.

It doesn’t matter what else happens.

It was true that other users, in fact, had thought of it as a means of achieving that goal.

But yesterday, I saved Shin.

Of course, no one would think it was wrong. There is no disagreement in itself as a result of saving myself.

However, what I wanted to take issue with was in the process of saving Shin.

then

So when I found out that Ansol’s miracle, which I thought was a countermeasure, was ruined, and the Clan members were not coming back. I couldn’t think of anything in my head. No, it was just the idea of saving them.

But I’m sorry to hear that.

‘Mercury Road. You have to think more reasonably.’

Yoo Ji-tae’s words are not wrong. I had to think a little bit about whether I could save him or not and move on.

Even when I used Elixir, I didn’t hesitate at all.

I’ll save my Clan members, don’t you understand what this means?’

Yeah, I didn’t know at that time because I was obsessed with the idea of saving it, but maybe there was a different future. Save Shin Jae-ryong and care about Elixir, the best future I think.

Ironically, however, the choice had the best result of Shin’s survival. If there had been even a moment of delay in every process of saving, it would have had irreversible consequences.

The divergence that came right there drove me crazy.

I can only feel it now that everything is done. The gap is revealed only when the difference between the values that have sustained me and the actions that were 180 degrees different from each other becomes stark.

Other users may think nothing of it and applaud…The gap, for me, was a terrible contradiction. I feel like something that’s been holding me back in this hell is falling apart.

…Actually, I don’t know. What’s wrong with me?

You’re going to be like this. Why did you show off in front of Anhyun?

Sizzling. Sizzling.

“…Huh?”

Suddenly, when I looked down with a very slightly warm energy, I could see that the embers burned to the end of the year touched my finger. I guess you thought too long.

When I come back to my senses, I suddenly feel thirsty and dizzy on my forehead.

Come to think of it, have you had a good rest since you got out of the pit?

“…Phew.”

Who are you cursing at? It’s my fault.

A sigh came out of the temple, but I threw away the beginning of the year and stepped on it to rub it. And at the beginning of the year, I was about to drop my eyes for confirmation, but I dropped my head without realizing it.

And at that moment.

“Uh.”

Suddenly, dizziness got worse, and severe dizziness and sudden sleep came.

Tuck!

Almost at the same time, something hot liquid ran down the philtrum and landed on the ground.

Small, but red bloodstains. Blood stains come out on the back of your hand when you scan your nose reflexively.

As soon as I confirmed that it was nosebleed, I thought I was pathetic. A lump fills my chest.

“Really….”

First of all, thinking of stabilizing the dizziness, I raised my hand slowly and supported my forehead.

“What the… What the hell is going on….”

And I couldn’t beat the flood, so I closed my eyes.
