The Regressor Make Everything

97 episodes

A Korean gate located on one side of the Aspace terminal.

Seongha Yeom looked at the clock with her arms crossed in front of the pillars in the crowded lobby.

“… … .”

1:50 p.m.

Although the promised time was 2:00 PM, Seong-Ha Yeom did not like the waiting situation itself.

‘Do something useless when you just make a window… … .’

That being said, what the hell kind of help does the blacksmith guy go out to help?

Seongha Yeom frowned as she felt as if she was carrying a lump of luggage, and then quickly released her arms.

“… … A waste of time.”

If it was a window, it would have been spread out in the studio anyway. The moment Seongha Yeom, who decided to just use anything there, was about to move towards the gate.

“ah. Is this this way?”

Sehun Lee naturally followed to the side.

“… … When did you come?”

“just now. It looks like you’re in a hurry, so let’s go quickly.”

Seong-ha Yeom contorted her eyes and turned her head to see Lee Se-hoon smiling leisurely while chinking towards the gate.

“If you fall behind, you throw it away.”

Seongha Yeom, speaking coldly, walks step by step. Seeing this, Sehun Lee smiled and headed to the ticket gate.

beep-

When I brought my cadet ID, the ticket gate opened with a short mechanical sound, and as I entered the hallway, a wide corridor was revealed.

Gates connected all over Korea.

Unlike the gates in the dangerous areas used only by heroes, this one was mainly used by ordinary citizens, so the atmosphere was quite loose.

“So, where is the workshop?”

“… … .”

Instead of answering Lee Se-hoon’s question, he walked back to the Gangwon-do terminal without saying a word.

‘What a distracted guy is doing is completely pathetic.’

When Lee Se-hoon smiled and followed him. Strange glances began pouring in from all around.

A look at his own face with wonder. A gaze that looks at herself and Seong-ha Yeom, pretending to be seen by chance. And finally, the vague gaze where you look at it.

In the various gazes, Lee Se-hun was able to distinguish who the opponent was to some extent.

‘People and the people sent from the gate. And Ma Kwang-soo is the inspiration.’

As before, I wanted to ask Wongyeonsa for help, but this time, it seems that the power struggle at the gate of Chanceong was intertwined, so it seems to have moved directly.

‘Or maybe it’s because of the word promise.’

Before returning, Ma Kwang-soo was mostly indifferent except for killing doppelgangers and Majin.

However, there were a few of them that showed interest, and that was about promises, or more precisely, ‘people who keep promises’.

‘I said that people who insist on keeping one promise are the most annoying.’

In fact, whenever he came to the workshop, he cursed them as fools, but when he heard from other people, he often secretly helped behind the scenes.

‘I thought there was a story… … I don’t know if I’ll be able to hear this time.’

I rarely talk about myself, but this time, unlike before the return, I also made a relationship, so maybe it’s possible.

While thinking like that, Sehun Lee is walking.

“… … .”

In the distance, I saw Seongha Yeom’s back, standing still.

When you walk first, you always feel like you’ll be really behind, so you’re waiting. Lee Se-hoon looked at him with an absurd expression and followed him.

“hey. Are you getting the concept right now?”

“… … .”

“If you just say that you help, you should say thank you. … .”

“Shut up.”

Seongha Yeom walks again without even making eye contact. Sehun Lee followed with a bitter smile at his unchanging appearance.

“Tt… … .”

Ma Gwang-su, wearing a baseball cap, quietly followed behind him.

Boo-woong-

Sehun Lee got out of the taxi and looked around slowly.

“It’s lonely… … .”

A small town nestled with rice fields at the bottom of a mountain valley. There were only five houses, and it didn’t feel as popular as if they were empty.

Lee Se-hoon, who was looking carefully at the old-fashioned neighborhood, found a studio with smoke rising at the top of the hill.

“Is it there?”

“okay.”

Seong-ha Yeom goes up the hill with a short answer. Sehun Lee, who was behind him, looked at the house with the lights out.

‘Hmm… … They seem to have prepared themselves.’

Various traps hidden throughout the house. It seemed like he put a lot of effort into it, but in Lee Se-hoon’s eyes, sloppy parts could be seen little by little.

‘I need to make some corrections to use it properly.’

After paying attention to some parts, Sehun Lee climbed the hill and looked at the workshop in front of him.

A studio that looks like a cozy country house, but is equipped with the latest chimneys and protective equipment.

It looked as if the old house had been remodeled by someone who had an attachment to it, and Sehun Lee looked at it curiously.

‘Do you have any story? … .’

When Se-Hoon Lee is looking around carefully at the sight of the times being felt everywhere.

bang!

The door to the workshop opened and an old man came out.

“… … .”

An old man with dark hair with gray hair rising and white roots. He looked up at Seongha Yeom and opened his eyes wide, then looked up at the sky.

“Is it over… … .”

An empty expression and a weak voice. Se-hun Lee whispered to Seong-ha Yeom in response to the reaction as if he had given up on life.

“Why are you doing that?”

“… … I do not know either.”

Seong-ha Yeom, who frowned as she was embarrassed by this situation, approached the old man, Park Jin-hwan.

“what happened.”

At Seongha Yeom’s question, Jinhwan Park slowly lowered his head and looked at Seongha Yeom.

Then, as if he had lost his mind, he twisted his face and grabbed Seong-ha Yeom by the neck and began to shake it.

“How many times have I told you, me, or Moonju, that I will die unconditionally the moment you came! But are you crawling all the way here? I really wanted to die, so I was blown away!?!”

Rather than being angry, he seemed to be screaming in frustration. He spoke while standing upright without any shaking at the sight.

“I will not die.”

“Why don’t you die? Now, are you going to give up even the position of a mourner?”

“I’m here to protect you, so I’m not going to die.”

“So you said you were going to die, you idiot… … uh?”

Park Jin-hwan, who had been shouting at Seong-ha Yeom as if frustrated, found Lee Se-hoon and opened his eyes wide.

“You… … .”

“Nice to meet you. A first-year student at Babel’s Smelting Faculty… … .”

“Lee Se-hun?”

Park Jin-hwan, who intercepted the introduction, asked with a confused expression.

“Is it true that Sehun Lee, who was the head of the department, is also a student? The one who made a sword for Myers’ monster… … .”

“If the monster is talking about Jake, then I’m right.”

Seeing Lee Se-hoon nodding his head, Park Jin-hwan put on a shaky expression.

“Why are people like you here… … ?”

“The guy standing next to me asked me to help.”

“That guy just followed suit.”

Seongha Yeom, speaking bluntly. However, at the sight, Park Jin-hwan made a more startled expression.

‘I’m not swinging my fist… … ?’

To end it with words with such an unwelcome expression on your face. At the unbelievable sight, Park Jin-hwan suddenly remembered a rumor he had heard before.

‘Is it true that you and Sehun Lee are close?’

I thought it was a rumor that Seong-ha Yeom made up to frame her for collusion with outsiders, but it seems she was mistaken.

Park Jin-hwan, who had been looking at the two of them alternately in an unexpected situation, came to his senses and talked later.

“Hey, let’s go in and talk.”

“I’ll start reconnaissance around the area.”

Seong-ha Yeom, who just says what she has to say and goes to the backyard. In the end, only Lee Se-hun followed Park Jin-hwan into the workshop.

“If I had known that guests were coming, I would have put them away… … Let me get over the messy stuff.”

“Excuse me.”

Lee Se-hoon, who came into the studio with Park Jin-hwan, who was shy, looked around slowly.

‘It’s an old workshop.’

Except for the brazier and some important tools, everything is old-fashioned, and the soot that remains deep here and there makes us guess the years.

Sehun Lee, who was looking around the interior like that, suddenly caught his eye on a weapon decorated on one wall.

‘Oh… … .’

A 2m long red spear stored in a transparent case.

The long triangular spear blade protruded like a harpoon, and the spear spear was grooved in circles at regular intervals up to a third.

‘Is it the method of stabbing and fixing it and then grinding it with the flame that bursts out of the groove?’

An abominable object that, once properly stabbed, sends it to the Nether Road.

When Lee Se-hoon looked at the heroic level with interest, Park Jin-hwan asked gently.

“Why?”

“ah. I was just looking at it because I thought it was well made.”

“… … is it?”

“Yes. I don’t know who the spear owner is, but it seems like he made it with attention to even the smallest habit of the spear owner, and I like the way it is made.”

It was made a long time ago, but there were some inefficient parts here and there, but meticulous attention to detail here and there made up for those shortcomings.

‘It’s difficult, but once you get used to it, you can use it for a long time.’

A weapon made according to the person who will use it without being obsessed with high grades. It was the direction Sehun Lee was aiming for, and at the same time, it was a form he liked.

“Looking over there… … I think I understand a little bit why your name sounded so loud.”

Park Jin-hwan, who was genuinely admired, spoke calmly while looking at the decorated long spear.

“That’s the Changil Se, which was used by the first Moon Ju, who was the first Moon Jae-in, to be active. It’s something I’ve been working on for over a year.”

“Invited guest… … .”

A former S-class hero who created the Flame Remnant Spear and the Fire Gate. And Yeom Jin-hyeon, the adoptive father and father-in-law who adopted and raised Seong-ha Yeom, who was an orphan.

Sehun Lee made an interesting expression on the appearance of the long spear he used before retiring.

“Come to think of it, young people these days don’t know. The last time I was active was 35 years ago.”

“I heard that he was the only S-class hero among the gatekeepers of the Chromance Gate.”

“… … It was. It didn’t last very long.”

Park Jin-hwan shook his head with a bitter expression as if he remembered a memory from the past.

“Stop talking about the past. It’s all over now.”

“All right.”

In my heart, I wanted to hear more, but in the original story, I have to listen to these stories when my emotions rise.

The two sat at the table in the living room, facing each other.

“It’s late, but let me introduce myself. Park Jin-hwan, who used to be the exclusive blacksmith at Chromangmun.”

At the introduction of Park Jin-hwan, Lee Se-hoon asked with two eyes wide.

“If you were in charge… … .”

“It means it’s cut off now. As of yesterday, he was relegated to the slick position of advisor.”

Park Jin-hwan, who had a bitter smile, straightened his expression and looked at Lee Se-hoon.

“Do you know exactly what happened now?”

“I heard that Seong-Ha Yeom and the senior citizen will be removed by Won-Ryong Lee, Mun-Joo.”

“Still, I came… … Can it be said that you are supporting Seong-Ha Yeom?”

Asking cadets who just entered this year to make sure they support them. It was a story that some would laugh at and laugh at, but Jinhwan Park thought that now was the most important situation.

‘This guy is no longer an ordinary cadet.’

Kim In-cheol, the representative of Myers, a coalition of small and medium-sized generals who completely drove Barmut out of the mass-produced arms industry. And Ryu Eun-ha, who played a big role in creating that situation.

It was widely known that the two were Lee Se-hun’s guardians, and it was known that the Myers and Inoue families were also looking for opportunities to recruit them.

‘There are rumors that he became a disciple of Ma Gwang-soo… … There are rumors circulating that this incident also won the favor of Yeongun sword Kasar.’

Of course, the kindness towards Lee Se-hun does not necessarily lead to Seong-ha Yeom, but at least it can be a reins that will prevent Lee Won-ryong from going wild.

Therefore, the future of Yeom Seong-ha and the neutral faction, including himself, and Yeom Jin-hyeon, who is recovering, was determined by how much Lee Se-hoon could be attracted.

“Support… … You might see it that way. I want Seong-Ha Yeom to become the master of the gate.”

Park Jin-hwan trembled at Lee Se-hoon’s answer and then asked while holding his breath.

“Can I ask why?”

“I made a deal on the condition that I helped when I entered the Six Great Mahayana.”

“The Six Horsemen? what is that… … .”

What the hell do you mean by going to a place that even S-class heroes can’t easily enter?

I wanted to be joking, but with that serious expression on his face, Park Jin-hwan realized that Lee Se-hoon was sincere.

‘I knew there was going to be a partnership with Yeomhwamun or something like that… … .’

When Park Jin-hwan is unable to continue his speech due to a very unexpected answer. Sehun Lee spoke calmly.

“Don’t think too hard. It’s not common for blacksmiths to search for strong heroes.”

“that… … right.”

“That’s why I’m trying to help Seong-Ha Yeom as much as I can. There is no other purpose.”

“What you can do… … Right.”

I don’t know if other people will help Seongha Yeom, but I will do my best to help. Park Jin-hwan bowed his head at the sight of Lee Se-hoon, who had taken the risk.

“Thank you.”

“We made a deal with each other. Seongha Yeom will rip him off properly, so it’s difficult even if you like him too much.”

“It’s okay. All the money he takes is money from the client.”

Park Jinhwan talking with a smile. After confirming that the atmosphere had been relaxed to some extent, Sehun Lee started talking about the attack in earnest.

“The neighborhood was empty, did the old man let you out?”

“That’s right. There’s a high chance that you’ll be taken advantage of as long as it’s a demon’s attack.”

There are countless ways to brutally kill civilians and drive them down with Yeom Seong-ha’s incompetence.

Therefore, Park Jin-hwan was sent out a few days ago to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances, but Lee Se-hoon was satisfied with the neat work.

“Good job. Then all the traps installed in the house must have been installed by the elderly.”

“… … Did you see it?”

It’s a trap that you prepared by robbing your fortune, how can you spot it so easily?

“You hid it well, but there were parts that were a little less hidden. I think I’ll just have to tweak it a bit, can I finish it?

“… … I see. If there are any shortcomings, we should correct them.”

At any other time, I would have thought that the young man would know, but for some reason, the young man in front of me does not think so.

‘It’s not that the rumors are exaggerated… … It wasn’t enough.’

This strange feeling that cannot be known unless we meet in person. There, when Jinhwan Park is looking at him with nervous eyes.

“And I have a suggestion for you.”

“Something?”

“I made Seongha Yeom’s spears this time, but among them, the spear blades are a bit disappointing.”

Lee Se-hoon, who looked at the red spear hanging on the wall of the studio, and Jin-hyeon Yeom’s weapon, spoke proudly.

“Can I use that as an ingredient?”
