Reincarnator

< 103. Exam (1) >

'... who am I?'

"What the hell... I don't have time for that right now. Guys, it's urgent."

John Stone looks absurd.

Even though there was a difference now, we used to fight for our lives on the land of Baekhwa.

Humanity can be easily forgotten, but hatred lasts a long time.

It doesn't make sense that you don't remember who you were fighting against, not the fate you were passing by.

"Damn it, Samuel. He's probably fighting like hell..."

I'm in a hurry for a minute.

Mi Heena Samuel.

Or the main capital direction.

We should take this guy and help him out on either side or finish the job.

Only then will this fight be over quickly.

'Glad to hear it. You've become incredibly strong.'

John Stone mutters, gazing at Hansook.

A prayer that makes your back look much more dangerous than it used to be.

Black magic that runs behind your back.

Something felt a little strange, but there's nothing you don't understand just thinking about the side effects of suddenly amplifying power.

Of course it had to be nasty.

'Glad you're not the enemy.'

John Stone mutters in his voice, reaching out to Hansu.

"Oh, let's go! Don't say anything weird..."

"Wait a minute."

Kiriel stands in the way of John Stone, angry at the gesture of not only staring at himself, but not even holding back.

Unlike John Stone, Cyril knew why Hansoo was doing this.

Kiriel frowns and asks.

"Do you remember me?"

Hansoo said with a slight narrow glance.

"You… hmm. You…"

Hansoo looks at Kiriel and mumbles something small and grabs his head.

While I was confused, I remembered a rare memory.

< Oh? I think this one's still here. >

< Kuhaha, I feel like scratching the lottery ticket. >

Hansoo ignores the voices of the demons coming from the inside, then raises his head and opens his mouth to Kiriel.

"Yes, I remember you. Kiriel. Kiriel."

"... Phew."

Kyrial sighs of relief, looking at Hansoo and asking.

"Did you lose a lot of memories?"

"If you can see it, it's not gone."

I don't think we'll ever see that again.

The erased parts make sense, but they don't even know where they were taken or how much they were taken to put into another memory that has no meaning at all.

"Oh, my..."

Kyrial, who bit her lip slightly on that expression, grabs her hand to the shoulder.

Looking at a handful of eyes.

It means that you can read memories.

Hansoo nods and mutters.

"Sure. I'm curious."

"..."

After taking a deep breath and placing his hand on the shoulder, Cyril became frustrated.

'... everything is blocked.'

Nothing has been read.

Not just erased memories, but all the memories that will melt in a single body.

It's like someone's trying to get in the way of a breach of contract.

Damn it.

As Kiriel grips his grip, John Stone, who is watching beside him, shouts in frustration.

"I don't know what you're talking about! Dammit! We have to get out of here right now!"

The visor on John Stone's head was constantly hearing the voices of Reunion technicians, including Methionel.

< Dammit… Samuel and Mi-hee's trail has been hidden and they are now coming in from the Neuraim system against them. >

< Getting kicked out of the system fast… damn it! The device level difference is too great! >

< Mi-hee and Samuel are pushing a little bit now... If we keep this up, we will lose. We have to hurry! >

Nothing worked in their favor at all.

It's a good thing one of the hawkers didn't go to war, but that's a problem, too.

I started getting kicked out of the system, so I couldn't figure out where Gaju was doing what.

It means it's urgent.

And here I am wasting my time.

Hansoo looks silently at John Stone's words and replies.

"Quiet."

The moment I saw those eyes.

John Stone flinches and takes a step back.

I took a step back because of a single word, and I noticed something strange that was not hidden in my urgent mind.

He has completely different eyes than before.

I could not explain the difference clearly, but I could instinctively tell.

It's going to be really bad if you don't do something about it.

'Oh, shit... what the hell.'

The cruel feeling of upholding my instincts captivated my whole body.

Around that time, John Stone was able to realize the blur.

The reason he was afraid of his opponent was not only because of the sudden amplification of power.

And Kiriel, who was looking at it, grips his teeth.

I knew it.

I can't read memories.

However, I was able to read the remnants of the emotions buried in my body.

There used to be a firm belief in Hansoo.

Though the method is crude, it is ultimately the belief that his actions will have good results for everyone.

But now dominating one body is an aggressive trait.

And boredom and drowsiness.

The eyes of a tyrant who lost interest in the world.

But there is no turning back.

Since you don't express your temper right now, it's time to have a conversation.

Kiriel steps forward and raises his voice.

Obviously, John Stone is right about now.

"Mr. Hansoo. He's probably just woken up a little bit, and he's right. Now hurry up…"

"No."

"...?"

Kyrial says Hansoo shakes his head.

"It means I've been awake for a while."

Hansoo woke up earlier.

A day, to be exact.

I lay still in the beast for about a day.

In fact, I couldn't find any reason to move.

The inside was comfortable and really great for empowering.

As he grows stronger, so does the power of the beast trying to take it away from him.

If we had remained still in it, we would have been able to achieve about 5 stars soon after.

But it came out of nowhere.

The inner voice that was shouting at him constantly from the inside kept stimulating him.

Not another.

It was a sound that I kept repeating myself before I lost my memory.

Don't ever forget this.

"So my goal was to save all of them?"

"... Yes."

Kyrial's expression is absurd.

"I can't believe it. Why bother with such crazy things."

And with such an attitude, Cyril looked desperate.

"Can you be this different because your memory is gone?" '

But Kiriel soon came to his senses.

As people accumulate memories and experiences and reflect, they gradually change into different shapes.

But all the things that could change the water supply disappeared.

Now, the image of a human being named Han Soo is before the goal, before the motivation and toughness to set the goal.

In fact, it became harder to talk, and it became rougher that way.

'It's over.'

It's impossible to move like this.

When Kiriel looks desperate, Hansoo shrugs.

"Well. Let's go first."

"...?"

It was Kiriel who was rather baffled by the unexpected answer.

I can't believe you just made that decision.

Hansoo smiled.

"No, I'm just really curious right now."

Hansoo was quite curious at the moment.

Saving mankind.

I felt like I wouldn't want to do that even if I gave him all the money I could right now.

I can eat well and live well by myself, and I can stir things up all I want without caring. Why would I do that?

You want to win the war against Abyss?

Of course, if there are many sides, and if each one is strong, it is advantageous to win.

But surviving and winning and being happy are two separate things.

Given the nature of Abyss, which ensures that individual individuals are unlimitedly strong, it may be advantageous for the power to win, but it is much better to be left alone in order to survive and have a pleasant uproar.

Once you're alone, you're less likely to be spotted. Even if you get something precious, you'll be able to stand out.

In other words, the goal is not just for you, but for someone else.

That's why I was curious.

Why the hell were you running around with your life, your memories, everything?

And as I pondered over the course of the day, the conclusion was one.

"You mean the people around me have succeeded in persuading me."

In the past, those around him succeeded in turning themselves.

It doesn't matter whether you show it in action or you convince it in words.

The important thing is that the people around him have succeeded in changing their minds.

And that is to say, I have sensitized myself to look at that goal with all my heart, so that I can move myself.

So Hansoo decided to compromise somewhat.

I cried so desperately, with myself before I lost my memory.

If he had ever really had such a goal.

If only I had succeeded in turning out that way.

'Then... maybe it'll change again.'

I was curious, so I wanted to watch.

Will the people around me, the people they've raised so far, ever be able to succeed in changing themselves that way again?

That's why I came out.

To give it a chance.

"I don't know. You convince me why I should."

"... what if it fails?"

Hansoo said with a big smile.

"It's up to me. And I'll do whatever I want right now."

"..."

"What? You haven't appealed to me yet."

So we do what we want first.

'Let's pack it all up and go up.'

I was going to go up, but it's too bad.

Given the power of the artifact on the inside, that's enough.

If you collect all three and hold them up, it will definitely help a lot.

It seemed like they needed all three to work together.

You can't leave something like that behind.

First of all, I want you to keep one right here.

Bang, bang!

Hansoo falls asleep at his feet, muttering, looking at a clump of muddy sea tar to suck the energy from the artifact.

It should be useful if you carry the artifact, but if you think this guy will come after you and bother you, it's a negative.

It's enough to collect the other two and bring them out and clean him up.

First of all, we need to collect the other two.

"Come on. Let's go."

'Cause I wonder what's gonna happen.'

If you get it wrong, just get it as far up as you can.

Hansoo smiles, pointing to the middle of the capital where the artifact resides.
