MEMORIZE

Chapter 683 Return of the King =========================================================================

In retrospect.

In the first car, which did not have current user information, I went through a myriad of life crises. Memories that make me dizzy even now. Nevertheless, it would be simply a miracle and a coincidence that I am standing here now.

Anyway, as I have overcome countless deadlines, I have experienced various situations, and the most miserable of which I could not hesitate to say, “When I almost died.”

It was just two situations when I was about to die. One time in the fairy’s forest and the other when he returned from hell.

Just like now.

If I had to choose between the two situations, it would be the latter. There was just a shortage of food in the fairy forest.

But the case of returning from hell was a little different.

No. It’s not a little, it’s

Come to think of it, I and Kim Han-byeol slept soundly in hell, but we never ate. But I didn’t feel very strange, and it was the same in the first round. At that time, I felt strange when I recognized a change that happened inside my body.

After returning to the human world, I felt a sense of hunger and exhaustion less than an hour later. The sensation didn’t come explosively for a moment, but the hunger, in particular, grew endlessly over time.

Of course, it’s not just ‘I’m hungry’. The bigger the feeling of hunger, the more naturally the sense of lethargy increases, and the more the sky looks yellow in the past. That’s why I thought the longer I spent the first day in hell, the less good it was.

In fact, when it comes to the principle of such a phenomenon, I am not confident of explaining it exactly. It’s just a vague assumption that it has to do with dimension law, because I don’t know the details.

However, assuming that hell is a world where meals are not needed, one can expect that the body briefly assimilated into a new dimension law, and then the fairy tale unraveled as it returned to its original dimension. Perhaps this phenomenon will occur in the process as an opposite salary.

In any case, it is definitely not a good phenomenon. At that time, I was able to live by a narrow margin, but I had to spend nearly a month balancing my tangled body.

When I still feel hungry. We have to move as fast as we can.’

It was not the time to share the joy of a leisurely return. I don’t know exactly how long I’ve been in hell, but I’ve become more urgent since it’s never going to be a short time.

First of all, I looked around at the thought of procuring it locally, but I couldn’t see anything. It was an error to expect something from the wasteland in the first place.

“Ugh…!

At that moment, a groan of distress suddenly flowed into my ears.

Kim Han-byul was frowning even more and biting her lower lip. This is a precursor to an empty stomach. You probably just felt a sharp pain in your abdomen.

It doesn’t feel a little early, but considering Kim Han-byeol’s user information, it makes sense. Since the class is a wizard, isn’t it significantly lower than me? So it’s natural that the phenomenon comes quickly.

“Oh, that’s weird. I don’t think it’s that day yet..”

Listening to Kim Han-byeol muttering nonsense, I made up my mind. As long as local procurement is not possible, the only way left is to arrive at the city as soon as possible. First of all, we have to take other measures.

Thinking that way, I approached without hesitation and grabbed Kim Han-byeol.

“Oh, brother?”

“It’s okay, so get on your back first.”

“No, it’s okay.”

“Come on, piggyback.”

“Go, what’s wrong with you all of a sudden? Until a while ago….”

“I can’t wait to get into the city.”

At first, Kim Han-byul refused, but eventually pretended to be unbeatable. Basically, as a smart child, you may know that you are in a strange physical condition now. Or maybe it’s because he wants to get into the city as soon as I say.

“Hey, then I’ll take the sack…No, I’m really confident in walking.”

Kim Han-byul said that she would carry the bag she brought from hell since she was carried on her back like this, but even that bag was lifted by me. Not only Kim Han-byeol, but almost all wizards’ physical abilities are quite low.(Let’s make an exception to you, of course.)

Even if I am still able to endure it, Kim Han-byul should preserve her physical strength as much as possible from now on.

After getting ready as quickly as possible, I stared at the sky for a moment to see the direction. In the pitch-black night sky, only one moon loomed high.

I opened my mouth quietly.

“…Let’s go.”

In the moonlit night’s wasteland, I started running in the direction of Atlanta, with a sack in one hand supported by a hungry woman in the other. At the maximum speed I can now.

Soon after, the surrounding scenery began to flow like water, and the arms that were wrapped around my neck tightened more strongly.

“Oh, brother. Why are you running so fast?”

“I told you, I can’t wait to get into the city.”

“Well, still. This is too urgent!”

“Because you’re sick.”

I didn’t mean to think too much. No. Rather, he said half-heartedly, focusing all his attention on finding the city. I wasn’t in the situation to accept Kim Hanbyeol’s whining.

Strangely, however, Kim Han-byul suddenly shut up. I can’t hear any more voices. I was worried that the body that just touched my back was slightly rigid, so I was worried that it was dead, but the colorful breathing sound from the back of my neck was telling me that Kim Han-byul is still alive.

After a while, the feeling of burying your head deep in your back is delivered.

“He, but his butt….”

Then, he whispered something in his ear and said something embarrassing.

I opened my mouth right away.

“Huh? Hip?”

“…you’re touching my ass right now.”

“Oh, but I can’t help it because I’m holding this in one hand. To support you with the remaining one hand.”

“Yes, but I’m so up and down…Joe, I think you can slow down a little bit..”

As she lifted the bag slightly, Kim Han-byul stammered in a mosquito-like voice.

‘Oh, my God.’

I understand what you mean, but I didn’t slow down.

Of course, Kim Han-byul doesn’t know the situation. But deliberately slowing down here is almost suicidal and inexorable. You may think it’s bearable now, but soon the hunger will grow exponentially. The hunger that has begun to explode once burns uncontrollably after a long time.

“Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your ass. Then you can go with me hanging from my neck.”

“…I’m angry.”

Huh? I think I just heard something. I was buried in the sound of the wind, so I couldn’t hear it properly.

Since then, Kim Han-byul has no longer spoken. Sometimes I felt a slight strangle of the neck, but I dismissed it as an illusion and prayed for the city to come out quickly.

How far did he run?

‘Is this…?’

While I was running, I didn’t slow down looking around, and at some point I could find incalculable marks carved on the wasteland.

It was a vestige of camping. In other words, the expedition team did not enter the city immediately, but rather waited for some time after building a campsite.

‘Good.’

Atlanta, no matter how magical and strong the city was, it had been neglected for hundreds of years. Besides, there may be something unknown in the city, so if you weren’t a really stupid general commander, you wouldn’t have entered right away.

Given those points, it was a definite positive factor to find traces of camping. I wouldn’t get lost in this place in the first place, but it proves that the city is close anyway. Now it was really almost there.

Then, as if I was right, the scenery, which had continued consistently, showed a slight change. At some point, things that looked similar to weeds caught my eyes on the ground, which was just a wasteland. Then, the steps taken naturally begin to gain more strength.

And a little later.

“Ah…!”

I ended up with a little exclamation.

Although there was still a distance, a huge city slowly began to emerge in the direction of view. Maybe it’s because it’s dark at night. The high walls, which were too long to even measure, stood out more noticeably because of their white light.

Finally, Atlanta is finally in sight.

“Hanbyeol, it’s Atlanta. Atlanta…!

Atlanta is getting closer in no time. I raised my voice while carrying Kim Han-byeol on my back, thinking that I just need to endure a little longer.

“…Hanbyeol?”

However, despite the sight of Atlanta, Kim Han-byeol showed no reaction. Come to think of it, it’s been quiet since a couple of minutes ago….

“By any chance.

Suddenly, a strange energy swept over the whole body. Certainly, the arms that had been squeezing his neck were loosened before long, and the breathing that was coming in was quite weak.

I’m nervous. In a hurry, I stumble my hands around, and suddenly I poked my middle finger between my supported hips.

And then, for a moment, there was no response.

But exactly three seconds later.

“…Hick?!!”

Kim Hanbyul reacted with her body fluttering.

“Ji, what are you doing!”

Soon, he started making a fuss on his back. Maybe he didn’t know at first, but when he thought about it, he felt something was wrong.

“Ha, Hanbyul. Stay still. It’s hard.”

“Do I look like I’m going to stay still? I’m not even interested in it earlier…What’s wrong with you all of a sudden? You’re talking about a girl.!”

“…of the maiden? Go on.”

“Effort! Oppa!”

Kim Han-byul shouted out loud. You seem to be quite angry at the back patting. I apologized right away, relieved by the side of my chest.

“Okay. I’m sorry. But you didn’t respond….”

“You can’t react because you’re tired!”

“Because I’m worried…Anyway, are you having a hard time?”

“Well, I’m worried…”

At that moment, Kim Han-byul suddenly became silent again. Then he gripped his shoulders with a groan of pain, and soon collapsed as if hanging.

“It’s still bearable. And it will be harder for you to have a hard time..”

Then, he spoke quietly with a voice that seemed to be out of spirits. I laughed bitterly inside.

Kim Han-byeol said he was just tolerable, but in reality, he would not. Because I was feeling a clear hunger. If the endurance capability of 94 and the stamina capability of 101 are this high, it is obvious that Kim Han-byul feels empty and lethargic. He probably said it was okay on purpose because he didn’t want to worry.

With such a meow, Atlanta was approaching before my eyes. Luckily, there was no need to find a separate entrance. Under the wall in the direction of running now, I can see an open entrance.

After encouraging Kim Han-byul, who was holding back her groans, to stay alert, I passed the tunnel-like entrance.

And finally, we were able to enter the dream of Atlanta.
