Bouquet of flowers

Upon returning to consciousness, Essence felt a frowning headache and dehydration. Essence buries herself on the couch and wraps her head around her wrinkled head.

Again, the serpent of regeneration came to her body again without her consent, and Essence could not remember anything about what had happened.

“... what did the serpent of regeneration say? ”

There was no reason to hide it until then. Baek Hyun told the serpent of regeneration about the fallen monarchs.

“You won't tell me who the true apostle is...! ”

“I was worried about you. If you find out more, you'll be on your way, and you'll get caught up in the work. Don't think too badly. ”

It's not because of unconditional concern. But even if there is a reason for seedling, it is certain that the serpent of regeneration is carrying the essence. At least the serpent of regeneration does not think of the apostle as a mere consumable, like the antelope spirit.

“But...”

Essence did not want to be persuasive, but in the end he was forced to keep his mouth shut. It is because she has not yet qualified as a formal apostle. If she was qualified, the serpent of regeneration would have trusted his apostle and entrusted him with his work.

[The serpent of regeneration laughs and nods.]

When I heard the message, Essence lowered his head. For a while, she was forced to feel helpless.

What is early qualification?

I couldn't figure that out. Level? From the moment you become a Preliminary Apostle, a level is nothing more than a simple number. Before becoming a Preliminary Apostle, you do such things as hunting monsters and exploring Abyss to get the attention of the monarch, but from the moment you become a Preliminary Apostle, the Ilitos are connected to the monarch. In other words, the monarch responds to each action. But what does the level mean?

Power? So is that. The apostle uses all the power of the monarch. Therefore, Essence did not know what ‘qualification’ the serpent of regeneration demanded.

[The serpent of regeneration kicks his tongue into the dullness of his body.]

That was the moment I heard it. A ‘pot’ in the head of Essence and the location of any place was inscribed. Essence stood up from the couch without a blemish, then hesitated to sit down again because he had not yet entered his legs properly.

It was a place with a "camp." After months as a preliminary apostle, Essence had never even been to the realm of the Serpent of Regeneration.

You want me to come? ’

I can't hear the answer. It means leaving it to choice, not coercion. Essence pauses and stares at Baek Hyun.

“... what would you do? ”

“What's wrong?”

“Greece... the... the Great Zone. ”

“You still don't know where you ran off to? ”

“Ugh... that's...”

Essence wrinkles her eyebrows while holding her fluffy head. She was in trouble for a while.

“... this is... not supposed to be the case. I'm not the only one, so... it's very tragic. ”

“Wouldn't it be better not to say so? ”

“That's... that's the way it is. That's why I'm asking you first. How did you...”

“First we lose. ”

It was not a question of concern. Though I wanted to go to the lineup because of the Heavenly Zone, didn't I actually almost die if I had to?

Essence could not understand Baek Hyun's unilateral enemy. But I liked saying that rather than ignoring it as someone else's business.

“Sooner or later, the location of the underworld will be determined. ”

This is a tragedy. Hunters have been exterminated in Abyss, and citizens are trembling with anxiety due to the disappearance of the Great Zone. If he succeeds in specifying his position, and publishes him, his citizens' fears may be somewhat resolved.

But what if the subjugation fails? The confusion that will arise there will not be compared to before.

“How?”

“I got in touch with Lisel. ”

Essence replied calmly.

Resell.

She was the least known of the apostles. Born in Switzerland, 27 years old... her photographs are so common that they come out with a little search on the Internet. However, one year after Lisel became a preliminary apostle. The story of seeing her in person is nothing but a false fact.

“I don't even know how, but Lisel said he'd give us a location in two days. Instead, I informed the association to set up a" definitive "punitive force. You said you didn't intend to join the Punitive Force. ”

Suu Kyi sighed after saying that.

“It's a matter of fact, and this time the apostles have decided to participate. Carpago, Lei Lung, Drave... and Valencia. I was originally thinking about participating, but now that things are like this... you won't be able to participate. So...”

“Can I go? ”

“... are you all right? ”

In a murmuring, Baek Hyun laughed. I never thought I'd get a chance to repay my debt so quickly.

“Yes.”

After some recovery, Essence returned to the association. To sort out the association's side and story about this.

“I don't think I'm tired. ”

It was Sarah's gaze that upset Baek Hyun, who came back from the plumbing.

“Did you forget you almost died? It's none of your business. What are you doing out here? ”

“My work is a little mixed up. ”

“So you're going to do something that might kill you? Are you insane?”

You don't know how to die?

Not only that, but three of the apostles will join the Punitive Force right now, and Valencia, the Preliminary Apostle, will join.

Of course, their participation in the Punitive Force is not meant to reassure citizens who are floating in anxiety and fear. For something each one seeks. That's the same for Baek Hyun.

"Carpago."

Apostle of Blood. I've only met him once, but I don't have a good memory. He's just been ambushed. After that, he's been very calm, but he shouldn't be relieved.

Fortunately, the Punitive Force becomes a friendly person for Baek Hyun. Drave is the one who doesn't know the truth, but Lei Lung has made an alliance with Baek Hyun and Imsinama. Valencia is also a supporter of Artifact to Baek Hyun.

“It's just a nice plate. ”

Baek Hyun knocked on Sarah's shoulder and said, Sarah frowns at her eyebrows as she looks at Baek Hyun's hand.

“... what's the number? ”

“You can eat some good food, but you have to pay off your debts before then. ”

“What about me? ”

“Have you ever been on a plane? ”

Sarah's eyes widen as she asks again. You've never been on a plane before? In fact, Sarah still couldn't believe that huge chunk of iron was flying through the sky.

“Maybe I can get on the boat, too. ”

“... a ship...? ”

“Yes, it's you in Greece, the Mediterranean. I've never been there, but the ocean is so pretty. ”

Sarah's eyes flutter like the sea where the storm met her.

“Come and see the sea. ”

“Am I... am I going with you? ”

“So, why don't you come with me? ”

Sarah's mouth widens as she asks again.

“You son of a bitch. ”

Seo Min-hyung looked down at his phone and uttered a profanity. A friend who came back in a month. He doesn't even know who he's been deceived to date, and he just sends Katok a few lines. Why did you go to Japan? When are you coming back? Seo Ming sighed and turned off the liquid crystal on his phone.

“I know someone doesn't want to go. ”

Japan in December. The weather in Fukuoka was not very cold. It was autumn rather than winter, and it was as chilly as a coat. Even if I didn't wear a coat during the day, I had to carry it.

It was good that the sea was close. In Seoul, the sea can't be seen, and it's just a short walk away. Now I'm tired of seeing too much. Smoking in a restaurant or bar was one of my favorite things to do.

One barrel of saffron oil. Hold on for a week. It would have been nice to have come, but it's been more than three weeks and a month. Japanese seemed to be more familiar with the ear than Korean for over 20 years already, and it was natural to sit on the right side of the car and drive to the left.

It's a good country. Food is good, alcohol is good. But I wanted to go back to Korea. However, we will be able to return to Korea in a few weeks' time.

The reason I came to Japan was because I had to take responsibility. In fact, no one blames the Korean colony for Hossein's death. Hossein, ranked number one in Japan, was eaten by monsters in the ruins a month ago. Unfortunately, there are not even any bodies left.

Hossein's death was organized that way.

There is nothing wrong with Seo Min-sik if you look at it one by one. Making Hossein a spirit was Tempest's will, not the will of the West.

‘If I hadn't been there. ’

So what happened? The consequences of Hossein's death would not have changed. The monsters in the ruins were too numerous qualitatively and manly for the hunters to handle. Hossein, who was reconciled with the spirit, wielded overwhelming power, but without Seomin-sik in that place, Hossein would not have been a spirit. Then he would have died in that place without defeating the monster.

After all, whether Seo Ming is there or not, the consequences of Hossein's death do not change.

‘Well, what should I do? ’

I don't want to be so persuasive. Nor is it convincing. The consciousness of sin does not disappear. Hossein's death was bound to happen, but he didn't even die as a human being because the Pyeonggi was there.

Even if no one blames Seo Min colony. The colony could not tolerate itself.

[Tempest looks at you with depressed eyes.]

I didn't want to hear that voice either. Strangely obsessed with yourself, monarch. It's so unusual to react to one action at a time, like a penny, sometimes overrated... Tempest shows. Beyond a mere degree of interest.

The blurry footage I saw at the time.

I felt my chest tightened. I searched my pockets thinking of going to a near-air research station, and I finally took a long breath.

Students were coming out.

Hossein used to tell Seo Ming the story of his family several times. A bereaved wife, a daughter raised by herself. Now every time he talked about his daughter Miharu graduating from high school, Hossein used to be a stranger's face to the orphaned Seocolonists.

Hossein's face like that, several times since that day and came out in a dream.

Quite a number of students passed the gate. Seo Ming looked at the passing students' faces. Then I found the face I was looking for and shook my hand.

“You still haven't gone back? ”

To be honest, Mihar's face had no corner resembling Hossein's. You were beautiful enough to want a wife. If I didn't look like him, I wanted to look a little more like him, but he was a different person.

Well, it was a month ago that I heard about my father's sudden death. I still have a tough personality. The colony was rationalizing in its own way. In fact, I would argue with anything if it were personality, but I couldn't argue with it properly because of my consciousness.

“Aren't you hungry? ”

“I'm not hungry. Eat it, mister.”

“Call me brother. ”

“What kind of brother is that? ”

Miharu mumbled so much that he passed the Seo-min colony. Seo Min-hyung stabbed his hand in his pocket and walked behind Mihar.

“I'll take you. ”

“All right. It won't take long to walk. Why are you driving? ”

“It's faster to get in a car than you walk. It's the same apartment anyway. ”

“If you're in the car with me, I don't think they're officers. ”

“It's been a month since I waited for you in front of the gate. I explained the situation a few times. I had an interview with her. ”

“Do you know how tired and annoying I am? ”

I didn't have anything to say to be honest about that.

“I don't care, I told you a few times I'm fine. You're not doing this because you're not satisfied and you want to keep taking care of it? ”

“That's right.”

Seo Ming replied with a bitter smile. After all, all this is nothing but self-satisfaction to relieve the consciousness of sin. He stood next to Mihar, ignoring the car he parked. I had to come back for the car later, but it was familiar.

“Take a look, though. I'll be back in a few months anyway. ”

“Why in a few months? ”

Mihar stares at Seo Ming with a fat face. Seo Ming replied with a bag of cigarettes in his pocket.

“I don't think I should get flowers for graduation. ”

“... I don't care if I don't take it. ”

“If you don't get them all by yourself, I'll be afraid. And I want to give it to you. ”

“... my father didn't ask me to do that. He said he died without a will. ”

“If he were you, he would have asked me to do that. ”

Seo Ming muttered and looked at Mihar's side.

You won't be able to see Miharu without a contract with Tempest. Hossein was walking with Mihar now.

To be precise, there was a spirit that was once Hossein.

He was no longer human, nor was he the face of his parents.

‘Still.’

Even if you can't say a word, even if you don't have feelings for yourself.

Seo Ming wanted to carry a bouquet of flowers to her graduation ceremony on behalf of Hossein, who became a spirit.
