Regress and Eat

“Get up! Oh, my God. Boss!”

Call someone mourning.

Team Leader? What team leader?

It's been too long since I heard the word, so it took me a while to think about the meaning.

It was a word used before the collapse of Earth's civilization.

“Get up! ”

Darkness follows the grain. The light grew on the closed eyelid.

It felt like my body's senses were beginning to assert themselves gradually.

Wait. Sense?

Something's not right. I can feel my fingers touching my skin.

I think I'm lying on a very soft mattress. But how can such a thing remain on Earth?

No, but first, what is this overwhelming power?

“Oh, I know you're awake. Your breathing sounds different? It won't be solved by pretending to be asleep now! The guild leader asked me to bring him here right away! ”

It's been a long time since I lost my senses of standing, vitality, and vitality.

Strange. I felt like I was wearing another shell instead of my body.

“Oh · · really. Byung-ho · · · You endure it. No more sulking. Now, don't get cocky. Think when you want to hit me. This month's rent · · · Children's food · · Communications · · Water supply · · People's pension · · Health insurance · · National disaster insurance fee · · Ageing Welfare Fund · ·. Special Defense Tax, Urban Reconstruction Fund, Community Stabilization Fund, ”

The man who recites the word like a spell, in the end, can't bear it and commits evil.

“Ow, really don't get up! Your dad's so pissed off, he's calling you! ”

And then a moment.

Jiaying!

Excruciating headache.

A painful sound leaked from my lips.

“Kuang · · ·! ”

A message echoes through my mind that is familiar enough to welcome all senses in this unfamiliar situation.

- There is a discrepancy between memories that are preserved in the soul and those recorded in the biological brain!

- Force tuning initiated by the system.

A system message that has been following me since the moment Hunter Awakened.

But the content is a bit strange.

And · · ·.

“Knng!”

A groaning sounds, a voice coming from my mouth but unfamiliar to my ears.

But I don't care about that.

“Ahhhh!”

It was so painful and painful.

“Oh, shit, you scared me. Why are you yelling so loudly again? You haven't done that in a while. ”

The person who kept talking with me was furious and insulted.

Bloop, hot liquid flows from your nose and mouth. I barely opened my eyes. A man stares down at me with a straight face.

His caterpillar's two thick eyebrows converge on his glabellar. You mutter as if it's a waste.

“Oh, shit. Looks like they really got a ride this time. I wasn't faking. ”

I struggled.

“Khhh!”

I, someone other than Seung Hyun Choi, get mixed up and pour into my head.

Tons of scenes.

But before I could see any of them clearly, I flew away and a new memory flew like a stone peddler.

Just as the raindrops could not perceive the shape of one by one, each memory could not be properly observed in the barrel where the storm of memory crushed and struck inside the skull.

“Oh, hello? Yeah, I think we should send someone over soon. · · No, this time it's real. I'm throwing up blood all over my nose and my mouth. · · · Self-inflicted? No, do you have the ability to bleed without touching your hand? No matter how promising, a layman who hasn't woken up? ”

While the man was on the phone in a hurry, the message of a system he couldn't hear kept ringing inside me.

- Soul and Body Memory Match · · · 0%!

- Check for violent physical rejection. I'm concerned about the breakdown.

- Skill [Rank: EX] is triggered to protect the user. There is no Mana consumption due to skill activation.

The pain that seemed to be about to be torn apart by the spirit and flesh began to subside.

- The effect of the skill [Successor's Eye (Rank: EX)] weakens the effect of physical memory on the soul and slows down the coordination process.

- Skill [Accessory's Eye (Rank: EX)] helps the soul's memory take over the self instead of the biological brain.

Indeed, as the message said, the memories of the third party, not Choi Seung-hyun, were slowly slowing down towards me.

Thanks to that, I was able to closely observe the memories that Choi Seung Hyun didn't have.

And I knew who the owner of that memory was.

Sit up while fighting pain.

“· · · Yes! ”

Thanks to my unique skill of never forgetting what I saw, I restored the contents of the document for a while to a distinct ‘Seung-hyun Choi' memory.

Much of the information you have just witnessed matches the contents of the document in the memory of a stranger.

My body trembles. Grab the bed sheet with two fists.

I shouted in a split voice.

“This is Seo Jin-wook, Seo Jin-wook · ·! ”

This fragment of memory that came to my mind without a second thought belonged to a man named Seo Jin-wook.

The man on the phone looked at me with bored eyes.

The user then connects the horse to the target beyond the receiver.

“· · · · · Have you heard of yourself? I'm not Seo Jin-wook. This is Seo Jin-wook. He does crazy things on a regular basis, but this time he's a different genre. A 19-year-old adult man is destroying a native language grammar that's not even five years old. Send a doctor quickly. ”

I turned my gaze and looked at the large mirror on the wall.

Instead of the face of Senior Choi Seung Hyun, the young man is staring at me with a pale, bloody face.

Matches photos you've seen in your documents in the past

Seo Jin-wook. Successor of Seo Gyu-cheol, Cheon Dragon's guild leader, Korea's first S-rank hunter.

However, there is one problem.

“Seo Jin-wook · · ·! ”

Seo Jin-wook died long before the SSS-grade dungeon collapse.

*

The caller seemed reluctant to send a doctor. The doctor came after a man yelled at his phone like he was threatening a whale.

During the inspection, my stomach kept buzzing, so I ran to the bathroom several times and threw up.

“Whoo-hoo!”

The doctor who endured the process patiently disappeared, leaving a vague diagnosis I thought I could make.

Then in the room, there were only me and the man guarding him from the beginning (the doctor called him Kim's assistant).

He's trying to take me to Seo Jin-wook's father right now. I thought I should stop trying.

“· · · So, Secretary Kim, you've heard everything I said to you, right? ”

Kim's expression distorted.

“Am I suspected of temporary memory loss from concussion? ”

There seems to be an effect of multiple vomiting.

“Yes, as I said, I'm having trouble remembering. I don't think I'm going to be able to meet my father right now. ”

He stared at the man who was making an indescribable face.

“Secretary Byung-ho Kim? Your name, right? ”

“· · That's right. ”

Kim's secretary frowned as he touched the crude ring on the index finger. Based on Mana pattern, this is quite a useful artifact.

He says in a dubious manner.

“That's awkward. You call me Secretary Kim, but you put your full name in your mouth. ”

I have stumbled upon Seo Jin-wook's memory, the original owner of the body, but it was still mixed into a mess, so it was not easy to draw out what I wanted.

Organizing your memory will take longer.

“What did you call it, then? ”

Then Kim began to list his grumpy, vulgar words without changing his disgusting face or hiding them.

Most of them were childish words that combine the letters‘ bottle ’and‘ ho ’in his name.

I grabbed hold of the dying spirit and stopped Kim's list of anchors before they could reach ten fingers.

“No, thank you. That's enough.”

“· · · · · · Bird pups, sick spots, bottled pumpkin heads · · ·. Oh, should we stop? ”

“Yes.”

I sigh lightly.

I just got off the phone with Seo Jin-wook who said he will soon be celebrating his 19th birthday.

Seo Jin-wook's birth year, confirmed in the old documents, is 2019. Which means that right now we're talking to him, right now, 2038.

"2038."

It's been 40 years since I can remember.

From the last moment of Seung-hyun Choi, I returned to this time period.

Possessed, too.

'This is driving me crazy.'

As Choi Seung-hyun, I organized and listed all the names of the people I remember as Seo Jin-wook.

Unfortunately, he was someone from my past who was out of interest and not much detail or material I came across.

Therefore, what I know about Seo Jin-wook's life is only a few bold events.

At the age of 20 years old in Korea, but before his 19th birthday, he was in charge of the expedition support team for the Cheongryong Guild.

"You're a team leader who can't wake up as a hunter because of his age. '

Explicit parachute greetings. However, Seo Jin-wook does not know the situation deeply.

For example, what was your relationship with your father, the guild leader, that he was looking for me? Is the position of Head of Support Team 6 really your father's favour, test or punishment for your eldest son?

Moreover, the document added a strange assessment of paperwork, although there were unconfirmed rumors.

Confused.

The memory that was left in Seo Jin-wook's brain was also not properly organized, so it was vague to decide how to deal with the situation.

'I need more information.'

I looked at Kim's assistant.

“Are you busy? ”

“Yes, I'm busy. As you know, the guild leader is not used to waiting. We have to rush. ”

“Well, why don't you try slowing that down? You just told the doctor. Memory loss due to concussion.”

“It's not a definite diagnosis, it's a suspicion. ”

The doctor went out to report it. A story must have already been told to the guild leader.

I was lying in bed in the middle of the day because I was hit on the head.

“A concussion? What happened? ”

Kim lets out one more glance that says, "It's hard to believe you don't remember." Then he sighs.

“There was a mysterious quarrel between Team Leader Seo Jin-wook and Team Leader 2. It's natural to give cause to be considered unscrupulous. ”

Point your finger at me.

“I put up with you? Head of the second expedition team? · · ·. ”

2038. The Celestial Dragon Guild. Head of Expedition Team 2.

The name comes to mind naturally. It is not dependent on pure human memory, it is an action of skill.

“Park Chang-hee?”

“Yes, you remember that. ”

Park Chang-hee is a Class A hunter who survived for a long time.

By comparison, I got a position as the head of the support team because I was the son of Seo Jin-wook, the guild leader, but I still don't have Hunter qualifications.

That would have been before I was in possession.

And you waged a fight?

“What if something goes wrong? Why?”

“At the meeting, the chief told Park Chang-hee, why are you looking at me with those eyes? · · · I don't like it. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

At that moment, I felt dizzy again. My stomach is starting to tingle.

“Our chief was angry because Park Chang-hee ignored it. ”

“Did you swear? ”

“No, you didn't. ”

“That's a relief. ”

“Let's hear it. According to witnesses, the captain stepped up. He jumped on the large rectangular table in the executive meeting room, kicked the documents and signboard and tried to feed it to Team Leader Park Chang-hee who was sitting at the other end of the sprint. ”

Anesthesia to Class A Hunter · · ·. Flying Kick?

I buried my face in both hands.

“I'm glad you survived. ”

I recalled a disturbing phrase that describes Seo Jin-wook in the document I read during Seung Hyun Choi.

- Rumors of severe borderline personality disorder, impulsive dysregulation, delusional, and schizophrenia spread among a handful of hunters, but were not confirmed to be true until the time of death.
