Hunter of the Perished World

Dogs don't have to think. Thinking is for the owner, and the dog just follows orders. Luwin gets up slowly and walks to the table he was just sitting at with the group.

Above is the helmet of the Exodus that Luwin never even looked at. Inside were the Hive's map data, and four scouts risked their lives to go down to that dreadful basement.

Mr. Odin grabs the helmet.

The sickness had an ominous thought, and Luwin still looked at the sickness and said with a firm look.

“My father said, ”

It was talking about a senior Mr. Odin.

According to Luwin's orders, the Tribute killed a senior Mr. Odin. And Luwin became the Emperor of New Hong Kong. Somehow he preached his father's words, it was treacherous.

“Don't keep the dog for long. You know why?"

“ ……. ”

“Dogs think they're human when they get older. ”

It was vague whether it was an animal or a dog in a symbolic sense. But the pandemic seemed to know what it was saying. Luwin laughs in front of him.

I was familiar with the mystery of seeing that smile, but I read the shadow.

The smile I saw the first time I saw Luwin.

“Hwan, do you know why I took you away? ”

“… I don't know. ”

“When I use people, I don't use the best ones. Promotions are the same. High-performing people incentivize, and promotion leads to slightly worse people. And he was complaining about my greetings. Why do you think that is? ”

“ ……. ”

Luwin, who hates riddles, was unafraid of his own riddles.

“I had a dog once. Fourth, I had nothing to do in the past.... To be precise, the first brother ordered it. I raised two marines. They were all hunting dogs. Oh, I mean real dogs. ”

Luwin smiles mischievously. Ruwin, the fourth, was young and was about to be thrown out of the succession race. The first was to throw two dogs at Luwin, saying, "Don't go near the company."

“I fed them myself. but one of them I got hurt in the leg fighting the other guy. So I spent my whole life ironing. ”

I wondered if Mr. Odin was such a chatty man. But I knew it wasn't right to provoke him now who didn't seem to be in a good mood.

“I've been raising them, but I can't just throw them away because I know the drill. I should have raised that dog in the first place.... It was kind of like a mission. I wasn't going to do anything with it in the first place. So, well, I kept him. They feed them, they wash them, they pick their hair. ”

Luwin smiles to see if he thinks back then. There was also a childhood for the Emperor of New Hong Kong, and it was difficult for him to think about having two dogs.

The plague is hard to believe that a cold-blooded Ruben had a crush on the beast.

“But one day, a corpse hunter showed up in our garden. I was just feeding a dog... The guards were far from here because they dug a tunnel. I rushed in because I was a kid. ”

It was like he was reminiscing about the scene at that time.

“What happened? ”

“… I don't know. ”

Now that Luwin's in front of you without a scratch, he shouldn't be dead. Luwin's eyes have lost focus, subtly. He mutters dazed.

“A healthy dog barked. just as the world is about to die. Yeah, I just barked. He was far away, very hard, barking with all his might. ”

“ ……. ”

“Daryl, that corpse hunter... It was a ghoul. I ran into him. ”

“Well…. ”

“The man who bowed to the iron bit the neck of the ghoul. And the ghoul grabbed him by the neck, and it was so hard that it was ripped out. I barely lived.”

Saving Luwin was not a healthy dog, but a man who bowed to his leg. The light returns in Luwin's eyes, he says.

“A crippled dog. I liked me better than a healthy dog, feeding myself legs. That's when I felt it. If you're going to give something, if you're going to give something, if you're going to use something, you better give it to a little worse guy. ”

Luwin realizes rather than mourning the death of his master's dog. And it was inhuman.

Luwin was never born with such sympathy. Such a man who guarded his master and gained enlightenment, not sorrow and emotion from a dead dog, could not be called a human being.

I suddenly wondered about the outbreak.

“A healthy dog... What did you do?”

“When Ghoul died, he barked at the corpse and flipped the boat in front of me. Like asking for forgiveness.... ”

Luwin doesn't say how he did it, but takes a picture of lifting his right foot down instead. Without sympathy and compassion for the dog with all his loyalty, he was cruel to the rabble.

Can we call this a human being? It felt like I was seeing another human being from nature. The blood on his hands was a sickness, but the sickness terrified Luwin.

Luwin smiles and returns to his original conversation.

“If you give what you know about your bad self something you'll never have, they're as loyal as dogs. ”

If you give an unexpected gift to someone who knows you are missing, they are as loyal as if they were to the person who gave the gift.

Odin Corporation is a company. But at the same time, it belongs to Mr. Odin. So, like the military, loyalty is more important than efficiency.

The idea was for me to do what you told me to do. And what kind of Guardian is actually the second place in Odin Corporation?

“The reason I used you is simple. ”

Luwin painted a very beautiful smile on his face.

“It was because of the bears. ”

To the plague, his face was complex, and no one dared tell him he was a bear. The person who said that behind my back disappeared the next day.

But his master said he used him as a bear.

He dared to give his seat next to the grumpy beast.

“I was so ugly, I thought that you would almost think of me as a god. ”

In fact, I did.

The Relic knew that no one could work with the bearded self, and I was truly grateful to Mr. Odin for accepting it.

Thanks to Luwin, he was able to organize a Dominator to lay the foundation for the Hive subjugation. But in the meantime, the outbreak had to serve Luwin for a long time. I had to make him Mr. Odin and take many lives, and that's still no different now.

‘Make me Mr. Odin, and I will grant you your wish. ’

It wasn't just because of the deal you made at the time that it allowed you to subdue the Hive.

Luwin's outstretched hand and the words of his comforter, he literally took cover. So he became a dog, not just because of the deal.

But Luwin only said that the reason he chose him was because he was a bear with a tangled face.

And the reason for saying that now is simple.

“I…. Are you trying to get rid of it?”

It meant that I no longer needed a distraction.

“I was going to do that if the Dominators were a little bit more stable. HRN is clearly running the Dominators, and he's just starting a business, so he definitely needs it. ”

So it was a dog that still needed to be. Using your knowledge as a veteran hunter, the pandemic has managed the Dominators well. It was natural for the Dominator operation to be compromised by the disappearance of the pandemic.

Why should I throw away my useless dog? Even when I was beaten, the pandemic wanted to know why.

“Then why? ”

“I'm sorry.”

Luwin makes a sound he doesn't even have in mind. Why are you saying you're sorry if you're going to throw it away? I wondered about the outbreak.

“Things got worse. ”

“Under the circumstances.... ”

“I was told not to subdue the Hive in Fortress. ”

“Well…. What?”

The pandemic said that with a less trembling voice.

The alliance between Wargrave and Odin Corporation was also aware of the pandemic.

Moreover, considering the correlation between Hive and Wargrave we have seen today, the pandemic was quite possible.

“I'm sure you know. No matter how much the Odin Corporation flies and crawls, we can't take on Wargrave. I'm an entrepreneur, and being an entrepreneur is not always about making the winning choices, it's about avoiding losing choices. ”

The purpose of the land pandemic is to subdue the Hive, and Fortress has correctly conveyed her intention not to touch the Hive. And Mr. Odin knew that hostility to Fortress would mean the destruction of the Odin Corporation.

“I don't want to make a losing choice. ”

Even though Odin Corporation is the ruler of New Hong Kong, it was insane to face Wargrave. New Hong Kong could have been wiped out if Wargrave soldiers started pouring from that huge wall right away.

“You can't accept the consequences. ”

All he wanted was one, and all the time he served at the Odin Corporation became meaningless in the situation where he couldn't do it.

“I mean, we don't need the hallucinations anymore. ”

Luwin throws his helmet back.

Chang!

As the helmet broke the glass and began to free-fall from the top floor to the ground, the remains stared wide as if their eyes had been torn open.

All of today's achievements were looking at the devastating end of the fall.

And what I could never achieve again was to see all my goals lost. He stares at Luwin with trembling lips.

“Luwin.”

“Tell me.”

“Don't you think I might kill you and die together? ”

Despite his great power, the Monolith is a beggar's killer, and Luwin is only a small man. With just my right hand, I was able to snap that branch's neck and save it in a heartbeat. The pandemic cried out.

“Are you trying to kill me? ”

Now, Luwin was committing suicide. No matter who they are, no matter how much they have the power, they are still human.

Humans are powerless in front of them, and at this moment, powerless in the hands of the plague. But Luwin wasn't scared at all.

“Actually, back when we were allies. ”

Luwin raises his hand in front of him. Suddenly, a blue light was emitting from his detector.

“I received a little gift from Wargrave. ”

“Well, that's... ”

“It's called a cyborg procedure. ”

Luwin stares at the gleaming blue glow from his fingertips. A cyborg procedure permitted only to some of Wargrave's combatants was performed on a civilian, Luwin, for Wargrave reasons.

“Can you kill me naked? ”

If he smashes through the steel door bare, he could kill Luwin now. And I just turned around and said it was impossible. But the pandemic didn't intend to retreat.

Now that everything is meaningless, he should ask the owner as a betrayed hound.

The sickness rushes to Luwin. All I had was my bare hands, but I had no choice.

Luwin smiles at the ruins.

At that time,

Gene rushes into the Academy as soon as he gets to the nest. The Dark Bone energy was lost considerably, but that was not the point.

“Leona!”

Gene searched the Academy's classroom as if he had lost his mind and wandered around the shooting range. Leona was nowhere to be found.

“About four hours ago... I saw you at the shooting range... ”

“I see. Suddenly I can't see.... ”

The teachers didn't know about Leona's work either. Gene ran off like crazy and headed to his place this time.

There was no sign of Leona either. Only, there was a note on the bed.

No. 94, District 7.]

It was just written. Gene glances down at the note, shaking his hands slightly.

There is a clear fact that Leona has been kidnapped, and another fact that another mistake has been made.

The only thing I don't want to lose is to end up being an obstacle to survival.

I've always felt it, but I wanted to avoid it. One by one, one by one, deceived himself by saying he didn't know it this time. But in the end, there were gaps, information came from places he did not know at all, and he could not stop the conspiracy from being planned, and of course he did not know.

Weaknesses are weaknesses after all.

Gin is frozen like a statue, and for a while, she sees no words, no movement.
