The Returner

3. Then let me ask you to try to solve it (4)

I'm not sure if monsters have reason, but even if they do have reason, this moment is definitely gone.

The monsters were all of their kind, trying to get away from Lee Hyuk, trampling and beating them.

I ran on two legs, four legs, and then again.

If I get stepped on, I press down and blow myself up. It rolls, crawls, and bursts of blood, and it only moves forward.

To the north.

To the north again.

“Chuckle.”

Lee Hyuk smiled as he watched. That's why I told you not to touch it.

Didn't I tell you that?

Then there's nothing we can do.

You don't have to talk to me, but you have to understand. In a rough world these days.

Lee Hyuk turned and walked toward the chair as he looked at the monsters hurrying north.

The monsters coming out of the gate are problematic, but they will run north according to inertia as well as those without intelligence.

Lee Hyuk sat down, twisted his legs, pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and asked him.

Bang.

Lee Hyuk, who lit a cigarette and emitted long smoke, pointed his finger forward.

Then…….

“Monster Defense. Stop him, you bastards. ”

“Hey, what are you wearing? ”

I was fascinated by the monsters that were gathering at Ri Jincheol.

What a sight.

Why are those monsters rushing towards them all of a sudden? With that crazy attitude, too!

“What do you do?”

There can't be an answer to that question.

It wasn't Ri Jincheol who could solve this situation. Even if the Colleague comes, we won't be able to resolve the situation.

One thing's for sure.

It was only that if they stayed here, they would disappear without leaving one side.

“Son of a bitch. ”

Ri Jincheol trembles.

However, even if you run away from here, the result will not be that different.

The task of the party was to stop the gate from opening here and provoke the others accordingly.

And then you just give up on this place and walk away?

Even if it had to be realistic, it was the Republic that had to be held accountable if it didn't follow orders.

We cannot ask all the powers here for sins, but Ri Jincheol will surely be held responsible. You may be dragged to the flower shop for questioning your loyalty to the republic.

No offense.

The horror of the monsters in front of him and of the party behind him whitening his brain.

“Comrade!”

“Don't talk to me! ”

Ri Jincheol yells and grits her teeth.

“Son of a bitch! ”

I don't know what you did, but you will have to pay for it.

“Comrade, we must retreat! ”

“I told you not to touch me! ”

“Are you going to die if you follow me like this? ”

“You son of a bitch, you're pissed at me! ”

“Forgive me.”

“This……. ”

Ri Jincheol raised her voice.

“Fall back! Fall back! ”

I felt dirty for showing my back to the rest of the Koreans and running away, but I have to survive now. It was easy to guess that the wave wouldn't leave a single piece of bone behind.

“Retreat……. ”

Ri Jincheol turns to run with power as she listens to the growling of the monsters approaching her.

“Aaahhhh!”

You hear monsters panting behind your back. Every hair on my head ran with power and horror.

“Ahhhh! Comrade! ”

But not everyone could run as well as Ri Jincheol. Monsters quickly caught up with those who were not physically skilled, and the consequences were dire.

Wood Duck.

Screams fade away with a terrifying noise. Ri Jincheol doesn't look back.

It was because I thought I would lose my mind if I saw my colleague being eaten by monsters.

“Why!”

The blood spilled from my lips was brutal.

“Why is everyone coming this way?! ”

It was totally unknown to him.

“Hoho?”

Lee Hyuk enjoyed watching North Korea's militant brigades flee with all their might.

“You're a good runner. ”

Choi Jung-hoon was unable to answer.

Is that even possible? ’

I could see that Lee Hyuk had gained something by defeating the previous Demon King.

But even so, who could have imagined that it would be possible to suppress a shoal that size with fear.

“Darling, who are they? I've never seen them before. ”

Erkana, sitting on Lee Hyuk's shoulder, asked.

“I don't know. ”

“Are there kids like that in this neighborhood? How are the dimensions connected? ”

“I don't know.”

“You don't care? ”

“There's a backtrace over here. The Gate itself has divine intervention. ”

“Divine?”

“Yes, divine. That's why we can't detect it on Manawa alone. ”

“Hmm, if it's divine, did the gods intervene? ”

“I don't know about that. ”

“Rat poison for Darling. But if it's sacred, isn't it possible for a lizard to track it? She's got Latrell's blessing, too. ”

“That's not the latrel, that's the problem. ”

“Hmmm.”

Choi Jung-hoon could not understand the conversation between Herkana and Lee Hyuk. And I didn't even want to understand the two conversations.

They're the ones, so we just have to leave them alone.

That wasn't the issue he was supposed to solve from now on.

"What the hell am I supposed to do with this? ’

Choi Jung-hoon felt strange when he saw monsters rushing into North Korea.

Dual minds were dominating him as he felt refreshed and worried about the future.

It feels refreshing to think that you screwed with those who provoked you first, but he was even more anxious considering whether North Korea could handle those monsters.

“If you can't handle it, you'll die. ”

It's a North Korean collapse scenario, but it's something only the higher levels can do, including political power, but no one would have imagined that the North Korean collapse would begin this way.

Of course, there must be a scenario where North Korea collapses because it can't handle the gate…….

“I never thought I'd be involved in that beginning. ”

Just for one reason I moved in with Lee Hyuk.

It was an honor to see a very historic moment, but this honor was the best lesson I wanted to give up.

“… I, Lee Hyuk. ”

“Tsk?”

“Can those North Koreans handle it? ”

“I don't know. ”

People shouldn't be so irresponsible.

A man should have minimal responsibility, you son of a bitch.

“If that thing goes down in North Korea, it won't be a joke. ”

“I don't know. ”

“First of all, you're not kidding about the refugees, but you really break your back to cope with it. ”

“It's me……. ”

“Yes! You have no idea! ”

You don't know what you're doing, whether you know it or not!

“It's not like that. ”

“What did you hear? ”

“Sound of the heart? ”

You're a ghost.

Choi Jung-hoon shook his head.

“Lee Ji-hyuk. ”

“Tsk?”

“I'll stop joking and get serious. ”

“I've been serious for a while. ”

… is it?

Cho Jung-hoon wanted to be marginalized ignorantly, but he realized now was not the time.

“People die. ”

“I sent you here to die. ”

“... Of course they hate it. ”

“Really? I'm fine. ”

Yeah, I guess they're okay now, too.

But I hate you.

“I also agree that there must be proper retribution for Taunting from over there. ”

“So?”

Choi Jung-hoon's voice became more serious.

“But the people of North Korea... It's a bit strange to call them people. There is no sin on ordinary people in North Korea. Monsters like that will be harmed not only by their abilities, but by ordinary people as well. ”

“But?”

“Can't ordinary people without sin be harmed? ”

Lee Hyuk tilted his head.

“Why?”

Choi Jung-hoon smiled.

I knew you'd come out like that, you little shit!

“If those who have not sinned are harmed, it is our fault. ”

“No.”

“Yes?”

“Actually, it's my fault. ”

“… you know. ”

“So let's just leave it alone. When people say something, I do it. ”

“Ordinary people…. ”

“Oh, I killed those ordinary people. ”

Choi Jung-hoon reminded me again.

‘Oh, this guy was crazy. ’

Choi Jeong-hoon once again confirmed the obvious and rational truth that general logic does not work for Lee Hyuk changed his way.

“Yi Hyuk is getting annoyed too! ”

“Tsk?”

“The number of Korean people is growing. More people to protect. ”

“I'm protecting the piece of land anyway. ”

“There may be a struggle for necessities. There's a situation where you can't eat a cola. ”

“What?"

Lee Hyuk's eyes widened.

This definitely hurts.

“Why don't you go to America and get something to eat? ”

“Ah……. ”

And now he can go anywhere.

Fraud mining. Fraud mining.

“Security will become unstable, relations with China will deteriorate, people's taxes will be exploded, making welfare difficult, economic growth……. ”

“Are you running for election? ”

“I used to feel that way subtly as I was saying it. ”

“I think you're perfect for it. ”

“… Thank you. ”

This isn't it.

Why do I keep getting tangled up in my words?

“However, if we leave that alone now, the North Korean system will collapse! ”

“Well, maybe. ”

“That's why we have to stop it! ”

“How what? ”

“... That's what Lee Ji-hyuk should do. ”

“Wow!"

Don't look at me like that.

I know it's incredibly irresponsible. I know!

I wouldn't do this to you if I were you!

“Hehe, there's no one else to solve but Lee Hyuk. ”

Jung-hoon Choi abandoned all his pride and hung on Lee Hyuk. I know I'm being sarcastic, but this is a really serious situation.

“Well, well. ”

“Yes?”

“What I can't do if I want to solve it, I can't leave now? ”

“Why is that?”

“Look. ”

When I saw where Lee Hyuk was pointing, I noticed that the gates were vibrating.

“Eh……. ”

Why is that shaking?

Is there anything left?

What else can come out after this much...?

“Ah, the boss mob. ”

“It's not a game, it's the Boss Mob! ”

“But I think it's an appropriate naming……. ”

“Acknowledge.”

Lee Hyuk smiled and woke up.

“Let's take care of them first and then think about it. ”

Of course I do.

If we don't get rid of them, we may lose our country, not North Korea.

Choi Jung-hoon sighed deeply.
