Recall

Chop, chop!

Suddenly, dark hair splashed across the earth.

A red blood splatter spreads under damp knots of hair.

“Hah... Hah..."

The man breathed intermittently, as if it were going to break soon. Every time I vomit, a drop of blood rises from my mouth.

Soon, my pale lips barely came off.

“Soo-hyun... Remember what my brother used to say...? Don't... save me... ”

“Bro...? ”

“But you... Survive. Survive somehow... Look at the end... ”

“Tongue... ”

The tremor disappeared from his hand before he could say anything.

The yellow current that was generated in the body gradually dissipates.

The shaking eyes lost their light in an instant.

Tuck!

Lastly, your head and hands drop to the ground simultaneously, helpless.

And that moment.

Kuooooooooooo!

“Aaaaahhhh!”

The vomited cry of anger and sorrow echoes like madness in the air.

*

It's all over.

A moment ago, something was filling my head, and I felt like I was leaving.

I sighed for no reason, and looked up at the sky.

The sun has risen to the skies. I wish it was raining cool, but the sky at noon is so clear and clear. As I was walking through the sky, I suddenly remembered a few messages in the air.

User Kim Soo-hyun has defeated 'The Spy's Horseman Nergall'!

Nergal is part of a plan that the Devil Lord Belzebub has worked on for a long time. Perhaps if Simon Grimes had gone back to this, the continent of Hall Plain would have been in utter chaos.

However, user Kim Soo-hyun has made a significant contribution to deter the devil's plan by killing the preliminary Awakener who received the 'Seed of Evil'.

Judging this, user Kim Soo-hyun will be awarded 500,000 Gold Points!

“ ……. ”

'500,000 points….'

Looking at the messages, I closed my eyes for a moment, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

500,000 gold points.

I gave a pretty good deal for catching a handsome horseman. That meant that I was right in the end. If Belpegor was accidentally summoned, Nergall was definitely mixed with the planning elements. He probably gave it quite a high opinion based on that point.

Honestly, I'm not impressed. I once touched countless GPs. So even though it's not a small gold point, 500,000 GPs don't reach that big.

Suddenly, the forest in the field escaped. Moving forward, crowded popularity begins to feel slowly.

I opened my closed eyes and turned off the messages that were staying in the air. Then I noticed the battlefield that I had traveled a long way between the missing messengers.

No. Can't call it a battlefield anymore.

Obviously, there was a large number of people walking around. But I don't feel the violence that I felt before, anymore.

So I kept walking. Walk, walk, walk, walk into where the people are. And I walked right past them.

The sun that rises in the sunny sky sprinkles bright sunlight, illuminating the field. It was a weather that did not match the landscape of scattered corpses and flowing blood.

Suddenly, I felt the back of my neck warmed by the strong sunlight. When I realized it, I was walking in the middle of the field.

Soon, as I passed by the people, the scene around me flowed into my ears one by one.

“Su-yeon! Su-yeon! Answer me, Su-yeon! ”

“Someone help me! Priests, please come this way! ”

People who are desperately looking for someone, looking for help.

“I'm glad you're alive.... Thank God... We're alive! ”

“Phew…. Phew…."

People who are relieved and happy to be alive.

“Brother! Brother! You can't close your eyes! Open your eyes! Huh? Hyung...? Woof!”

People who cry out in front of dying users.

“Let go! Roar! I'll kill those bastards! ”

“Hold on! Hold on! The prisoners have surrendered! It's over! ”

“You're a prisoner! The war is not over yet! You motherfuckers! ”

People who see death and provoke anger.

“Sir! Sir! You're lying, aren't you? Fuck, man! ”

And those who confirm and mourn the death of their acquaintances....

"Huh?

I felt quite familiar with the voice flowing into my ears, and I stopped walking without even knowing it. As I slowly turned my head, I could see where dozens of people were gathering. Most of the considerations on their chests were symbolic of the clan.

“Dammit! You promised to live with me to the end! Oh, no. This is not the time. What are you priests doing? You don't chant healing spells! ”

“User Cho Sung-ho! Consideration Road has died. I mourn his death. But first, let's calm down... ”

As soon as I heard that, I felt a little sober.

Considering Lord's death? '

So he died the same way as the first time.

... I don't know how he died. However, he would not have died in vain as he had originally been judged after death. I just thought that.

I passed by those who cried with a thin sigh.

As I went, I could feel the sound filling up the surroundings gradually becoming more frequent.

The next place I arrived was the place I met when I rescued the children.

Where Ansol awakened and confirmed Shin Yong's death.

No one was standing there. Only a handful of corpses remained. I thought that the classical performance would follow me well.

“ ……. ”

Among the bloodstains that are constantly being trampled on, there must be a mix of new ones as well. I glanced at it for a while, then began to walk again.

The battlefield, which had been quiet for a while, became noisy again as I walked.

Scramble, swirl, swirl.

The walk you see below is always slow. My pace was slow enough that the fire and the battlefield were crazy enough to make me feel like a dream. Do you think he just walks to his heart's content?

I wonder how far they've come across the field.

The moment I saw users gathered in one place, starting to see from afar, I stopped walking without my knowledge.

Visible users were members of the mercenary clan.

At first, I didn't know why I was slow walking. But as soon as I saw the clans, an idea hit my head, and I was intuitively able to find the answer.

A long time ago, the early days of the Mercenary Clan. I remember coming back from an expedition and seeing a group of users. They were also a group returning from the expedition, but unlike us, who returned with tremendous success and excitement, it was a very depressing atmosphere. That's obvious. I would have failed to explore and lost my companion.

At that time, the children stopped chattering and just looked at them. I was curious about what they were thinking, but I made a commitment at the time. I will never fail to prevent such a sight. I will not let that atmosphere be seen in the machine room.

But the result was a failure.

Personally, I achieved my goal through the war. But in the whole clan.... You have endangered every member of your clan, and most of all, you have lost one.

Of course, for the first time, new business was excluded from the personnel line and switched to individual requests. But the decision was also mine, and ultimately participation in the war was an unacceptable and erroneous choice.

'I'd rather go alone.'

With that in mind, I stopped and stared at the clan members.

Everyone looks okay except for the 'miracle' effect or new purpose. I felt relieved about it, but I was worried. I was able to understand the feeling of flowing into the dark even if I did not have to come close.

I took a step to think I had to go, but soon I put it back on the floor. It was when I bit Ziggy's lips on a footstep that wouldn't fall off.

“Soo-hyun!”

'?'

“Soo-hyun! Soo-hyun! ”

A sudden voice. As I turn my head, I see In-young rushing from one side. After confirming who she was, I shed a mild tear.

My brother was running.

“Soo-hyun! You...! Huh...?”

And the moment my brother approached me, I stopped a little.

“You…. Are you okay?"

“Are you okay?”

I was rebellious.

I don't know what that means, but it's not okay to say. As the 'anger' was once again deactivated, I felt exhausted again. And as soon as I realized that, my vision suddenly shifted.

“Er... ”

“Soo-hyun!”

Tuck!

The ground that was inadvertently approaching stopped in the middle. I look up and I see my brother. He must have come running after me when he saw me collapse.

“Are you…. ”

Soon my brother's lips fell off. But when he saw my face, he shut up again. What the hell was he trying to say?

It was then.

“Soo-hyun!”

“Mercenary Road! ”

The clans who showed their backs start to look around slowly, whether their brother's voice was quite loud. I close my eyes for a moment, then stand straight up with all my might.

Suddenly, there was a sudden comeback. I'm sick of losing my mind. And most of all, I didn't want to look weak.

“ ……. ”

Surprisingly, he didn't say anything. He just lifted me up unknowingly and helped me walk quietly.

Soon, you begin to get closer and closer to the clans. I see a few men running towards me, but I immediately raise my hand to stop them. It was just a sign to stay still.

As the distance decreases, the concentration of depressed energy intensifies and eight clan members' faces are clearly visible.

There are eight clans left. Four of them sat on the floor, surrounded by new ornaments, and the other four stood up with a calm glow.

“Hehehehe…. Heheheheh…. Brother…. It's because of me... Because of me... Commercial brother... ”

Among them, the especially severe was Ahn Hyun. He's strangely drooling on the ground, abandoning all his equipment.

And next to him, Ansol and Hwaseong sat down helplessly like a madman. Both of them have tears in their cheeks, I think they've already shed a lot of tears.

Soon, I saw Vivian sitting helpless last. She didn't look back even though I was here. I was just looking at him quietly.

“Su-hyun, Su-hyun? ”

I heard a voice calling me out of curiosity for some reason, but I ignored it and went too far. It was the moment I stepped inside to take a closer look at the new business.

Then Vivian turned to me. In her eyes, a single tear was pouring down her eyes.

“Soo-hyun Kim."

“ ……. ”

“Shin Sang-yong is dead. ”

“ ……. ”

I looked down at the new business without saying anything. As you saw earlier, he still had a calm, comfortable smile on his mouth.

“He was my first disciple.... I didn't even think I'd be able to say goodbye like this... ”

“ ……. ”

“I…. I hate this... ”

One last word of Vivian, a sniff, dug deep into my heart.

And I didn't get any answers. What am I supposed to say in this situation?

“ ……. ”

A moment of silence passed.

It was then.

“I know a way to bring him back to life. ”

A quiet voice pierced my ears. Everyone raised their heads and looked at one side.

Wherever the clan's gaze gathers, there is Kim Hanbyol.

“I know you have a wish in your store. It takes a tremendous amount of GP, but you can save as many dead people as you can.... ”

“Gimhan...! ”

“What, what? ”

“Is that true? ”

With Ahn Hyun running like a jackass and Reason Jung, Kim Hanbyol said, "I've only heard the story, but maybe it's right.” I said. I changed my teeth.

However, if Kim Hanbyol's answer was not enough, Ahn Hyun immediately rushed to me.

“Brother! Brother! Do you have a wish? ”

“ ……. ”

I closed my eyes reflectively. Suddenly, my mind became complicated for a moment, but I could barely answer.

“Let's stop for a second. ”

“Bro! If you collect the GP, you can save your brother again? What?”

Even though I told him to stop, Ahn Hyun desperately hung on.

I opened my mouth grabbing the trembling throat.

“Hyunah.”

When I called her name, An-hyun's hanging stopped for a moment.

“Please…. Please stop... We'll talk about it later. ”

“Bro! Uh... Brother...?"

I don't answer anymore, I turn my head. But at that time, An-hyun's eyes, looking at me, only grew into a flashlight cup.

It was not just An-hyun. From the moment I met my brother, I saw the awe and anxiety of the clan members.

And just then, I was able to examine myself covered in blood. My whole body is soaking red so that I can't see any color anywhere.

I dared to take off my coat. However, the coat is also not sexy. When this happened, the torn back was like a mop. I wiped my face hard with it. I wiped it twice or three times because it was not enough. Only then did I feel a little clearer in front of my eyes.

'Wake up, Soo-hyun Kim!'

After a moment of refining my mind, I opened the door with a voice that I forced.

“User melody. ”

“Yes, yes! ”

“Collect your new corpse right now. And I'll get right to the battlefield. ”

“I understand.”

Then, I turned to my brother. My brother was still looking at me silently. Looking at my brother reminded me of that time.

Personal wishes?

I can save her.

But is it the right choice to save him?

Someday. Maybe....

No, maybe not.

The reason I came back was not to eat well and live well in Hall Plain. It was to take my brother and Hansoyoung and ultimately return to Earth "safely." It was a future I thought and planned, inevitably to embrace.

However.

When the time comes, can we really think that saving a new identity is the right choice?

I can't answer that question.

Because….

You can resurrect a dead user once, but you can't go back to Earth at the end.
