King of Shadows

"That's really funny. Humans do their job. It's not a matter for monsters to interfere."

I cut the end of the road calmly. Even if Sihyun helped him, it was possible because they understood each other. There was no overlap between the humans and the monsters. Circumstances that are not strange even if you turn against the enemy at any time. Therefore, the end of the road did not trust Xi Hyun.

"What are we going to do with him now?"

"I'm going to confess my crimes in front of all the guild members and make them pay for it. Why do you ask?"

"Just a little curiosity. It's a prey I've been waiting to kill because of you. It's natural to wonder how the end will turn out."

"I'll take responsibility and punish Cheol, even if you don't worry. If we catch all the crimes, we won't be able to avoid death..."

"You're just going to make it happen. It's going to be tough. There's gonna be people out there looking for you. Perhaps a new group of powers will emerge through the gaps in the snow."

"That's something I have to endure. There's no reason for monsters to care. I appreciate the help, but we just crossed paths anyway. Sticking together won't do us any good."

At the end of the road, he nodded quietly, acting as if he was drawing a line. It was the language cluster that thanked each other. We just used each other for each other's needs.

Sihyun said in a quiet tone.

"But thank God. If I had the same reason for being human, I would have killed you both."

Even the same personality couldn't make a decision at the important moment, but it was better if it changed. When I read his thoughts, I was cold sweating. The body spontaneously reacts to a predator more powerful than itself. The end of the day, when I looked at him with a expressionless expression, I turned to the conversation thinking that the seeds were also incomparable.

"Enough of this nonsense. Who's the boy?"

Jong-gil had just sat on Sihyun's right arm and turned his gaze to the swimming in his arms. While listening quietly to the conversation between Xihyun and the end of the road, the swimmer lowered his head as he looked at himself. In the midst of a treacherous transaction, she was able to predict what was coming to her.

"He was in the shelter. His name is Su Swim. That crazy guy--Chulwu smashed this entrance in half. Staying alone in a place like that is dangerous, so I brought it to you. A very large guild will at least be responsible for this child's consciousness."

Sihyun thought it was best. Unfortunately, he was not a man. No, I'm not. Habits and appearances changed, and all he could do was find a lost child and put him in a shelter.

"Hello, my name is Jong-gil Kim. He serves as the commander of a guild called Scorpion. What's your name?"

"It's called an exponential swim."

When she saw the end of the road and the swimming, she opened her mouth.

"I'll take him."

"Good choice. I'll take good care of her so she doesn't regret it."

Sihyun handed the swimming to the end. No, I was gonna hand it over. But the swimming struggled. The more she tried to detach him, the more she insisted on digging into his arms.

"No, I'll stay with you."

Unlike the polite and gentle image, the attitude of swimming was resolute. For a young child, he was surprised by the abnormally developed strength and scratched his head without even doing this. It's because I didn't know why. They were neither beasts nor imprinting.

"Swimming, as you can see, you're not human. He had a body that could never be mixed up with humans. Following you in a world like this is the same as saying you will never see Humans again. That's not what your parents would want either."

"It doesn't matter to your parents! They don't even come home for my birthday. Again, I was crying at the shelter, but they didn't come. He didn't even go abroad and come back."

The swim that responded to the keyword "parents" shed chicken poop tears. He suddenly stepped on a landmine and stroked her head. It was a short encounter, but I realized she liked to pet me.

"Swimming, you won't believe this, but Seoul is now surrounded by an unknown boundary. You can't go outside. You can't go inside. Your parents might want to be here, but they can't."

For a girl who did not know how the world had changed, she told the truth.

"That's why we need to stick together. Swimming is, as you know, the only people you can trust in a situation where unidentified monsters are stranded."

He did not believe in humans. However, his obsession to instill good stories and the right values in the child moved his mouth. After gaining strength from his words, he reached out to the swimmer again.

"Hey, you're coming with me. It's dangerous to be with a monster like that. I don't know if I'm young right now, but it's only a matter of time before someone else finds out about this."

"You're not a monster. And the end is worse for you. Because I'm in league with that bastard!!!"

The swim, with a shout that doesn't fit the little body, turns away from the end of the road. After understanding what had happened, he stroked the head of the swimmer.

"That's clever. Yeah, well, the more we do this, the more we have to be sure about Pia. It's no wonder I don't have the heart to join the organization that he belongs to."

An unexpected attack on the upper cut prevents the user from opening its mouth. I wanted to make excuses, but I couldn't think of any good words in my head. He will, too. He went to the bomb shelter. Even though I knew there was a swim in it, I couldn't be persuasive even if I talked about it like I am now.

"I'm sorry, I told you to be quick. From your point of view, they're just as bad as me."

The road to self-sustaining smiles is far from swimming. The swimming, which caused people to disbelieve in humans, regained rest in the arms of Jihyun. Ji-hyun, who guessed how much she was hurt by the look on her face, decided.

"I'll take it from here."

It was a difficult decision. The fact that he was responsible for one person, not human, contained many risks and variables. But it was inevitable. A swim attacked by a human being less than an animal was unknowingly injured. At least until the wound was healed, I needed a quiet place to stay.

"Mister, the best!"

"Ha, swimming. Going out with you is a lot of restrictions. I can't take you. You're not gonna like it."

"Mister, the best!"

"You're not listening."

With Sihyun's permission, the swimming smiled deeply. Sihyun smiled along such a swim.

This is what a beauty and beast do. Seeing the end of the road with Sihyun and swimming, I couldn't shake the feeling of disgust. When he read the sign of such an end, he looked down at him.

"... what's wrong with your face? Do you think I'm gonna eat this kid?"

I couldn't answer the end of the world.

"Relax. You don't eat people. Even if it were, it wouldn't be this complicated."

"But it must be true that the child is worried. I can't expect you, the monster, to understand swimming as a child. I'd rather get a reliable babysitter. So think again."

Before he even said Moore, the swimming pool in his arms opened his mouth.

"No, I'll never listen to you! My father told me not to follow a speechless man! You saved my life and all the comforts you've given me, Cetillion, and that's what you're calling it, isn't it?"

A word that ended the end of the world. The dead end bows with a dazzled look on your face. As she watched the swimming pool of infinite confidence in herself, she clapped her shoulders on the road.

"Don't worry. I know all about human habits. I will feed you three measly meals a day, provide you with clean clothes, a safe place to live. I intend to teach you skills that are age-appropriate and can protect my body when I have time to spare. And if something comes up that I can't figure out, I'll come find you. How are you? Are you relieved now?"

"... You know more about humans than I thought."

"You're a 'human' type monster."

"Still, come to report once a month. At least I need to know how she's doing."

"You're a pain in the ass."

"Who's bothering you? It's natural."

The end of the road screamed at him with an unfamiliar look. And for a while, I badly nagged him about preaching. Sihyun and swimming looked at each other and shook their heads.

Xi Hyun, who brought the swimming into the 'secret base', explained the internal facilities in detail. Swimming did not shut up about the surprising fact that the monster Sihyun had a habitat. But that was also only for a moment. Whether Bondi is adaptable or lively, swimming has become familiar with a secret base without any problems. I walked around like it was my home from the start.

When she saw the secret base full of energy just by staying one more person, she fell into a sad thought. I realized that this was the atmosphere even when I had a vote. Sihyun, who had felt the warmth of others for a long time, wanted to take a nap.

"There are dangerous instruments, so if you don't know what they're for, don't touch them."

"Yes, sir."

The day after the bizarre cohabitation of humans and heteros began, Sihyun visited the 'Scorpion' 's site. And I hid in the shade where no one could see me and watched as Cheolwoo was executed.

People were moved by the declaration of conscience of the end and treated him as the new commander, and the vacancy of the executives was quickly established by the young blood of scorpions. When Shi Hyun saw that everything was going back to its rightful place in the end, he left the Scorpion's place and headed for the secret base.

"Welcome back, sir."

"Yes."

The swim led a small body and hurriedly ran to greet Sihyun. Shi-hyun, who was unfamiliar with the greeting of the swimming, stroked her head and entered the secret base.

The innocent child's smile was like poison because it was a repeated demonstration of blood clots and heteros dry for the past two months. It tickles my heart knowing it's not right for me, but conflicting that I want to see it a little more.

"I was waiting to eat with you."

"Yeah? Well, that's a thank you."

Although he had a body that needed no food, he deliberately enjoyed swimming and lunch. The basic menu was vacuum packaged preservatives. Once he ate the conservation ceremony with a small spoon that was not suitable for the giant, he stared at the face of the swimming that focused on eating while completely forgetting that the ceremony was attached to the bowl.

It was only two days, but there was one thing I realized. That was that the girl called Swimming was tougher than I thought. I wasn't talking about disposition or personality. I was simply referring to the gift of being buried like a child. Whether she had a high level of education, her words and actions were often overly polite.

Not reckless, caring about others, seeking the extent. If such a child was not difficult, it would not make sense. It was because he had to act as an ideal 'adult' more than he needed to be an example for such a child.
