The Returner

“It's no big deal. ”

Lee Hyuk frowned.

Humans and monsters were intertwined, and there was no other Abigail.

Monsters fly and breathe fire in the sky, mixed with the smell of blood and gunpowder on the floor to ignite the battlefield.

“Jung-hoon Choi! ”

Seo Ah-young, who had just shot a flame at the monsters, suddenly turned on the reinforcements.

The horse was chanting for Choi Jung-hoon, but his eyes were fixed on Lee Hyuk.

Don't look at me like that, okay?

I'm not here to help.

Lee Hyuk looked back at Choi Jung-hoon with an awkward face.

Choi Jung-hoon ignored his gaze.

This is getting a little weird.

“Ji-hyuk!”

Park Seon-Duk summoned him.

“Uh, Mom. ”

“What do we do?”

I know Lee Hyuk has the ability to help, but I wonder if his son might have jumped in or gotten hurt.

The concern of wanting comes mixed up.

Lee Hyuk shrugged his shoulders, feeling the emotion of such a complex mother.

“It's not my job, either. ”

Lee Hyuk instinctively looked up at the house.

Are the windows intact?

Fortunately, the damage has not yet come to the house.

“Then what are you doing? The house prices in this town are going to fall. ”

Seeing the monsters everywhere and the gunshot marks, I couldn't help but notice the neighborhood.

No matter how much money there is, the price of the house is going to drop, so I feel like my eyes are getting wet.

No, wait.

We don't have time to worry about the house, do we?

Lee Hyuk felt something strange.

There may be feelings you don't care about or don't want to be involved in.

But there was something strange about people dying in front of me and worrying about the house price.

What is it?

Lee Hyuk looked down at his hands with shaking eyes.

It's twisted.

I don't know which part, but it was definitely twisted.

If it were Lee Hyuk from Beraf, he wouldn't have thought of this. At that time, everything was fixed with Lee Ji-hyuk just before going to Beraf.

The fixation was loosening, and a change was coming.

That's all I knew...

“Lee Hyuk! ”

Lee Hyuk woke up to Choi Jung-hoon's call and looked forward.

Somehow I feel dirty.

‘I know there can be no side effects. ’

I have lived for over a thousand years.

I've come back thousands of times from the stage of death.

It was actually funny that Lee Ji-hyuk maintained his identity as a human being.

Maybe we've been out of the norm for a long time.

That's why I want to be more human.

That's why I wanted to die a human.

Because he's human.

“Then I have to think that I want to help the same person.... ”

The problem was that I didn't feel that way.

“Phew.”

Lee Hyuk scratched his head.

I wish there was some kind of rehabilitation program.

Do I need a psych consult?

“Lee Hyuk! Don't just stand there! Help me! ”

Seo Ah-young shouted urgently.

At this moment, the monsters were killing agents.

I feel like borrowing a cat's hand.

“I'll give you 10 million won or something. Come on! Please!”

Yi Hyuk snorted as she saw Seo Ah-young screaming.

“Help?”

I'll help you.

That's not so hard.

Of course, I will help you...

“Not you! ”

Lee Hyuk looked at Dogayun and Choi Jeong-hoon.

“Hey.”

“… Yes? ”

“You've made it clear you're keeping my family safe. ”

“That's right.”

“If I get one more whiplash on my mom and my brother until I get back, I promise.... ”

Lee Hyuk chewed it out.

“You all need to be prepared. ”

Seeing Lee Hyuk's cold sunken eyes, Choi Jung-hoon shook his head.

“This is Water-Rone. ”

“I trust you.”

Lee Hyuk's head turned back again.

"Why is he so angry? ’

When Jung-hoon Choi didn't understand the emotional changes of Lee Hyuk, Lee Hyuk flew up into the sky.

A sad voice flows from behind his back.

“Jihyuk, I……. ”

Ah, Father...

Park Seon-Duk grabbed my husband's hand without knowing it.

Lee Hyuk was not in front of KSF.

The KSF side remained at all, but the defense minister did not.

Personalizers were so helpless in front of the flying monsters who turned the Earth upside down.

The progress collapsed and fell apart.

Human flesh is so helpless in front of the monsters' sharp claws and teeth.

But the Defence Force does not retreat.

If they retreat, civilians die.

Such a mission caught their feet.

The claws of the monsters fly in front of you, but you don't turn and run. I managed to keep my feet on the ground until the very end and put at least one more bullet in it!

“Don't back down! Don't back down, you bastards! Don't back down!”

A cry erupted from the neck of Jung In-soo.

Who can understand the feeling of seeing their children ripped to shreds before their eyes?

But we must not back down.

Even if you die, you have to die there.

That's a soldier.

At least the civilians didn't have to fight this hard if they had time to evacuate completely.

‘It's my fault. ’

I felt relieved.

What's his manual?

I was obsessed with the notion that the gate was open at a fixed time.

I feel like biting my tongue, but I can't right now.

Without his command, the damage will be greater.

We have to endure the sacrifice and grip it to prevent further damage.

The problem is that sacrifice is no longer a minority.

“You KSF bastards! Do something! ”

Bastards who never help when they need to.

You unstoppable, unsafe, talented people!

I wanted to tear them apart.

At that time, I saw the blue ingredient flying from the sky in her eyes.

Jung In-su shouted without even knowing it.

Lee Ji-hyuk!

Lee Hyuk drops into the air and kicks a beast-type monster with his feet, trying to stick a claw into the body of a fallen soldier. Then he picks up the injured soldier and pushes him between the people.

“Evacuation!”

“Yes? Oh, yes! ”

The casualty flies back due to natural command.

“Phew!”

Along with the sound of a deep breath, Lee Hyuk sucked Manat, which was full of mountains in front of his eyes.

‘Ironic.'

It was the worst disaster that has happened since he returned to the modern world.

However, the larger the disaster, the greater the amount of Mana that Lee Hyuk can use.

It's like the bigger it gets, the more chaotic it gets.

“Yes, I will. ”

Mana's tentacle, which was stretched out from Lee Hyuk's body, swallowed up the monsters rushing towards the soldiers and hit them.

A gap between the monsters and the soldiers clears the passage between the superdead bunker buster line.

“This way if you can help. ”

Not those damn powered bastards.

“But you still breathe fire? Isn't that right?”

This is a man who fights with a gun!

If you're naked with a man fighting with a gun, of course you're supposed to help the man with the gun.

Yeah? Yeah.

Isn't this it?

There's something subtly wrong with that.

“Anyway!”

In the excellence of Lee Hyuk, Mana comes out with a clump.

The magical forces spilled from the air begin to clump, tangle, and form a massive mass.

‘You have to control it. ’

The one you identified by mistake last time.

There is no Mana in this world.

So, of course, there is no Mana conflict, no Mana resistance.

In Beraf, the magical force emitted from the fan gradually dissipates as if the wind had hit the air.

However, the magical force released here does not collide with the air, but continues its momentum.

So when using extinction magic, it had to be calculated perfectly by adjusting the range so that it didn't eat everything in a straight line.

Lee Hyuk's brain was furiously moving.

If I had studied like this, I would have gone first class....

That's why I'm a middleman!

The cloud of magical power created by Lee Hyuk covered the sky.

“Seo Ah Young!”

Seo Ah-young who heard Lee Hyuk's signal shouted.

“Back off! Back off! Come on!"

The agents, who were blocking the monsters, rush back and forth in a frenzy.

Lee Hyuk grabbed his hand tightly and pressed down.

“Aaahhhh!”

Using too much Mana, Mana's reflexes rush through his body.

In Beraf, it will heal for a while, but here you have to endure the pain that continues.

“Die!”

The pain radiates out of my mouth in anger.

Gooooo!

Clouds of dark mana slowly descend and attack the monsters.

Screams, cries, and cries that are not from this world resound in the dark sky.

Seo Ah-young hugs her body as she hears the miserable cries of monsters swallowed by the cloud of magical power.

My body trembles.

This is not the first time.

Perhaps the view itself was more shocking last time. But now it's more real.

A scene worse than a freak movie was unfolding before her eyes.

‘I think I know. ’

If we look at Lee Hyuk, we can understand it backwards.

What the average person would see a competent person with.

How scared you'd be.

Ten times and a hundred times if that's what she's feeling right now!

‘I feel like the devil... …. ’

I don't know what to say to the person helping....

Meanwhile, the cloud of magical power condensed into one place.

“Drain.”

Then I was sucked into Lee Hyuk's extended excellence.

Lee Hyuk sighed as he absorbed the remaining Mana.

‘That was a little too much. ’

You didn't have to work this hard.

If I'd just refrained from looking back at myself, I wouldn't have come out of this shit.

There was nothing left around Lee Hyuk.

Monsters that were swarming like Amazon's army ants, the bullets and fragments that were scattered like sand on the ground... disappeared clean as if they had never existed in the first place.

All that's left is a dirt floor twisted and buckled like a piece of mop.

The strange sight was all I could see was KSF, the Defense Agency, silently staring at him.

“Lee Hyuk! ”

At that time, Jung In Soo suddenly ran out.

Bang, bang!

Then I grabbed Lee Hyuk's hands.

“Thank you.”

“Ah……. ”

“Thank you, thank you so much! Thanks to my kids, there's one more thing... ”

Jung In Soo lowers her head without joining the words.

“You're welcome.”

Lee Hyuk said indifferently and took off his hand. But I didn't feel that bad.

“It's not over yet. ”

“Yes!”

There were monsters that escaped through the dust, and there were still a few flying monsters in the sky.

Although Lee Hyuk has eliminated most of them, there are still a lot of them, so we'll have to deal with them quickly before the damage grows.

However, if I did wrong, I was right to solve almost everything in a heartbeat.

Seo Ah Young sighed as she saw Lee Hyuk talking with Jung In Soo.

I can't hide the existence of Lee Hyuk anymore.

Many civilians must have witnessed it, and we can't hide more than what has become so great.

So what happens when Lee Hyuk shows up in the world?

“Jung-hoon Choi. ”

“Yes.”

“I'll take care of the remaining monsters with the kids, so let's solve Lee Hyuk's family problem first. ”

“I understand.”

Seo Ah-young nodded with a stiff face.

He probably doesn't know yet…….

Lee Hyuk will surely become the core of the hurricane that will shake the world.

It was her job to keep the nuke safe.

“It's a start, Lee Ji-hyuk. ”

Lee Hyuk was stumbling towards Park Seon-deok, if he knew her mind.
