Kill the Dragon

00135 # 21 Citadel

“Are we collecting young bikers to train them? ”

Lee said, the soldier nods. The lips under the visor were dry.

“That's right.”

Lee Han frowned. I've been there myself. It was also done by the arc. I understood enough with my head. But I was not emotionally reluctant.

‘These soldiers... ’

Soldiers wear visors, so it's not obvious what they're wearing. They were mostly tall and had well-balanced muscle skeletons. It looks like it was filmed in a frame. I had a feeling that my facial line was slight compared to that of my body.

‘But there can't be any third grade I don't know. If I was in third grade, I would have known each other. ’

Lee concluded one thing.

‘Second grade.’

Few people come in contact with Lee during sophomore year. There is nothing strange about sophomore year without Lee Han and face.

It was likely that the soldiers surrounding Lee Han were enriched by the Arc's sophomore year. Prior to the battle, I abandoned my freshman year for budget and time. During the remainder of the first grade, all eligible students were upgraded to the second grade through reinforcement procedures. A second-generation psychic soldier made like that. They were in charge of backing up third-grade reinforcements.

Why are those sophomores here? ’

Lee's question continued.

Is the Citadel's entire body an arc? ’

Soldiers stop walking. Lee stood at the door.

Cheers.

The automotive door is open. Two soldiers followed suit. There was a man in the room with a benchpress. A dense and firm muscle that was unique to the body strengthened. The man stood up with a towel to wipe his sweat.

“Were you alive? Alpha. This is amazing.”

Lee's eyes went up. I've never seen the opposing Pokémon's face before. The user hears voices and voices, but it knows who the target is. Lee took off quietly.

“Omega-1. Long time no see. ”

Omega-1's face is dirty with scars. My body is full of wounds. Even third-graders are tough, but Omega-1 is worse.

“How did he survive? Are you sure you're the Alpha before that? They would have vanished right in front of me. ”

Omega-1's eyes are wide open. The psychic sparkles in the pupil.

“What about the other reinforcements? What happened to the arc? ”

Lee did not answer Omega-1's question.

“The arc has collapsed. Now answer my question. Why did the dead guy just show up? ”

Alpha One, Ethan's dead. No one doubted that. 2nd Generation Reinforced Soldier Due to Extinction with Bahamut. Its name is a remnant of the past. Omega-1 has long forgotten about this.

“I know it's hard to believe, but I've crossed time and space. I went to another world, and I came back. ”

The omega grabs her chin and thinks:

“Is that so? It was definitely a little strange. Dead bodies disappearing without any psychoframe debris. ”

Omega-1 quickly recalled the past. It is still clear when Lee Han disappears. Omega-1 is as good as this. He once led a rebellion and led children of his own age. Born with leadership and judgement

“I have been empty for the last three years. I need information."

Omega-1 grins with a crooked grin. He sits at his desk and folds his arms.

“Alpha, choose. Will you join me as a companion? Are you going to take another route? ”

Lee Han's eyes changed terribly. He gazed at Omega-1.

“What does that mean? ”

“You'd know enough. ”

The Citadel distinguishes between a sicker and a layman. Only Saiker can live in District 1. He actually recognizes the Saiker as a top tier. Other districts are offered and protected for delivery to District 1. It was a blatant dominance.

“You finally did your job. ”

Lee said, the omega-1 lifts his spiritual stance. His eyes burn blue.

“I just hit a player before I got beat up. Saiker was thrown into front of the dragon at no cost under the aim of defending humanity. Always fighting in the most dangerous places and not getting the right treatment. Do you think it makes sense for our Cyclops to be normal? ”

Omega-1 led the Cyclist and became independent. Arc, who fought the dragon as he spread the guerrilla, split up because of it. The bikers in favor of Omega-1 are out of the game. It was a catastrophic loss of power. The arc has lost much of its military power.

“Shouldn't that have happened in this situation? ”

Lee Hahn said, "Omega-1 has released the bronze." The flag thumps to the ground.

“If the arc hadn't been destroyed, all our sickers would have died first. The last of the reinforcements would have ended up on the battlefield with the rest of the world. ”

“That's just your guess. ”

“You'd expect enough. Alpha, the world is about to fall. The whole system was unstable. Arc was no longer able to control our bikers under the system. Suppose we win the war, declare one day that we will rule the humans? Humans had no power to stop us. What if we didn't kick the arc out first? What did the Supreme Council and the arc have to do to control the sicker? It was so obvious. Arc's commanders and Humans were always afraid of us. They were desperate to get out of control. They thought the owner of the planet was a" civilian recruit, "not a" syker. "”

Omega-1 is in flux. Lee saw the reasons for his thoughts, thoughts, actions and judgments in his words.

‘The logic is broken. ’

Lee kicked his tongue. The omega-1 seemed insane to him. Despite the plausibility, the factual nature of the case was simple. Omega-1 betrayed Arc and Humans first. Those words are an excuse for rationalization. Even though Arc and the human side tried to use some kind of means to control the sicker, it was just an assumption that did not happen. Omega-1 made a choice to annihilate humans and sickers because of anxiety about assumptions that did not happen. Omega-1 was no different from any human being he blamed.

‘In the beginning, Omega-1 had the premise that humans and Saikers were different. Saikers don't die for humans unilaterally. Because he was a soldier before the Cyclops. I think it's unfair for the Cyclops to fight for the humans. Just like a soldier defending his country,' Humans' fight for 'Humans‘. ’

The conflict was already deep. Saiker and humans recognized each other as different species. The perception was stronger than the walls of race, culture and country. Omega-1 thinks the sicker doesn't need to fight for the humans.

“So? Hiding underground like a mole and raising children? Which time will it take to kill the dragons and take back the land? You think you can do it on a Citadel scale? You just gave up everyone's future, just like them. ”

Omega-1 laughs as if awaiting. He gestures.

“Alpha, there's something you don't know yet. Come with me. Someone you know is waiting for you. And that person is our hope. ”

Lee walked down the hallway with Omega-1. Followed by a faint gray corridor. Four soldiers follow you behind.

“Yonke created this dominance system. ”

The Citadel has its own administrative structure. The bottom shelters were divided into sections, separating the right to live and the military. The Citadel was held in power by elite military organizations and treated life support as a subordinate. It was like Sparta, an ancient city-state.

“I read a book. ”

Omega-1 hisses. Omega-1 was also the owner of a brain that was not so bad.

“Those who do not follow you in the arc? Did you kill him again?"

Omega-1 killed a colleague who didn't follow him long ago. Omega-1 is still a felon who committed murder.

“No way. One mistake is enough. I was just a kid then, too. I didn't understand the concept of neutrality. I just decided I was the enemy if not an ally. This time, only those who agreed cleanly came out holding hands. ”

Lee laughed at Omega-1's words.

“You speak well. Neutral is also a potential enemy. Maybe when you left the arc, the power was off. Isn't that why you weren't violent? ”

Omega-1 smiles instead of answering. I felt like I was stabbed.

‘I should have him. ’

Omega-1 thought Lee would be a good partner. I can trust anything. Critical thinking that doubts the words and actions of others. Always cautious, observation better than anyone else. Lee Han is sharp as a sharp blade. He's the one who's going to have to come up with a way if there's no way.

‘So did the invasion of Bahamut. ’

The dragon weapon didn't work on Bahamut, and the external blow was meaningless. The reinforcements, who are not familiar with zero gravity space, have been chased by Bahamut. In such a situation, Lee knew intuitively what to do. You boldly decide to enter the mouth of the Bahamuth. It would have taken less than 10 seconds between the decision and the accident.

On the battlefield, one second's judgment is fatal. Soldiers with high tactical value, such as this, who are able to organize instantaneously. Lee can fight against 10 with a combat strength of 3.

Lee Han and Omega-1 arrived at the end of the hall.

“Still meditating? ”

Omega-1 spoke at the gate. A red warning light flashes over the door.

“Who is it?”

Lee asked.

“Didn't I tell you? You know him well. ”

Omega-1 grins. Yihan folded his arms annoyingly.

Simon?

It was Simon who came to his mind. It was Simon who was most likely to cooperate with Omega-1.

‘I wish you were still alive. ’

Tsk.

The warning light has turned green. The iron door slowly opened. Blue smoke flows through the cracks.

‘Psychic energy. ’

Lee Han's pupils glowed.

Shhh.

High density of psychic energy seeps through the door like fog. The interior is invisible due to the blue mist. A hazy shadow rises and slowly walks out.

Phew.

A nude silhouette was dressed. You walk out one step at a time.

“You're alive. Thank God. ”

A clear voice rang out. Kuro was the one who left the room. He laughed as if moved by Lee Han's gaze.

“Kuro?”

Kuro hugged me with pleasure.

“I didn't believe it. I thought you'd be alive. You can't die that easy. ”

I was embarrassed. I didn't think Kuro would show up here. Kuro and Omega don't fit in.

‘Kuro has blue eyes. It's glowing.'

Lee looked into Kuro's eyes. Kuro's pupils glow blue. The blood vessels under the skin sparkled briefly in blue. The blue liquid seems to flow instead of blood. Blue light spread across the skin like a spot at a constant interval.

“Oh, this? It just happened. Let's go inside. Eat something and talk. ”

Kuro noticed Lee's gaze and said as if it was no big deal. Ihan grabbed Kuro by the shoulders and stood him straight up.

“Kuro. Where are the others?" Why are you with Omega? ”

“… disagreement. ”

Kuro said with a straight answer. I didn't look dead like before. I looked her straight in the eye and said,
