The Returner

2. Fix it if you don't! (3)

Myeong-seok, KSF's Kangdong branch manager, looked up at the building while grinding his teeth.

“That burn. ”

Thinking about the phone call I just got from the principal, I couldn't help but get my teeth broken.

Even so, if we don't get there in time, I'll peel it off. Now it's not the 5th Republic, and that's coming from the mouth of a KSF principal.

The first time I saw him, he looked like a dot, but I didn't know where he was hiding his mojo.

‘No, you don't. ’

There's a cause.

Lee Hyuk, Lee Hyuk, Lee Hyuk are repeated every time one word ends.

I just got a phone call, but I feel like I'm nailed to my ear by the word Lee Hyuk.

“No, it's none of our business! ”

You must be anxious to work on the NDF, but you're worried about how wide you are and how long KSF is going to be there.

I was so thankful that I had a split tooth.

“Time is running out! ”

“Branch! Looks like the gate's opening. ”

“Hey! What's your timing? ”

“Yes?”

“No, man! ”

I looked at the gate, calming the pearl's boil. Seeing that the gate has little blue light left, it should open quickly.

I hate to admit it, but if we had left, the gate would have been opened before they arrived.

“Hey! Stop the car and put the kids in the car! Hurry up!"

“Yes, I understand. ”

Yuck! Yuck!

The bus stops with a sharp brake noise. The leaning and leaning bus finds its place, and the door opens, and the agents jump off.

The goodwill ceremony sees agents deployed and leaps out of the building.

“You're late.”

With a soft pearl in his applause, he lowers his head slightly and opens his mouth.

“Well, we got there in time. The gate hasn't been opened yet. ”

“Thank God for that. If you'd been a little later, you'd have seen something very good. ”

“I see. Too bad. ”

“What?"

The applause and fame ceremony stared at each other and sharpened their teeth.

Even after Choi Jung-hoon and Seo Ah-young left, the relationship between the defenders and KSF was not improved at all. No, in a way, it felt a little worse.

At least when there was Choi Jung-hoon, they didn't look at each other like this.

“… on our side to win. ”

“Hmmm!”

“Khh-hmm!”

Whether they thought they had seen a trend in front of Lee Hyuk or not, they turned their heads toward Lee Hyuk.

“Nice to meet you, Lee Ji-hyuk. ”

“Who are you?”

“I am a special name for the Gangdong branch manager. ”

“Oh, really? But……. ”

Lee Hyuk added with a fat face.

“You've been doing a lot of hard work lately? You're really late. ”

“… we have some work to do. ”

“If you don't have enough people, you can request support elsewhere and get reinforcements. You always say you're gonna be late like this, but you can't do that, can you? ”

Myeong-hwan stared at applause quietly.

Lee Hyuk, who is famous for not being interested in everything, could not have known this.

“Overall, we don't have enough people.... ”

“What do you mean, we don't have enough? It seems like the NDF is sending out to die these days, but we don't have enough men. ”

At that moment, the mouth of the famous noun sticks together like a glue.

Actually, it wasn't that inadequate. If you try to move a little earlier, you might be able to.

However, it was implicitly a little late because it was easier for the defense guard to make full progress and then arrive on site.

‘Though it's getting a little late now. ’

Man is inertia, so if he is late, he will be a little later.

Usually, there are those who cooperate when the problem occurs, but since the ministry is part of the Ministry of Defense and KSF is in direct line with the Qingwa Sector, the Defense Department's complaints were not communicated directly to KSF or the Qing Sector.

“Well, that's ……. ”

Lee Hyuk's eyebrows slightly raised.

“Got it.”

“Yes?”

“I know we're shorthanded. But just because we don't have enough people doesn't mean that we haven't been on time before? When was the last time you were on the ground? ”

“ ……. ”

In Lee Hyuk's words, a friendly ceremony did not answer.

“Mister.”

“Yes, Lee Hyuk. ”

“Or do you want me to make sure I don't need people? In just a week, I can make you chew this gate on your own. Then you won't hear we're shorthanded, will you? ”

I began to sweat behind the back of a famous brand.

It was a famous anecdote that Lee Lee Hyuk pushed an ordinary KSF agent into hell and turned him into an NDF class.

In a way, it is a good thing like life reversal. Talents were as difficult to build as they were. You can't expect anything more than natural growth, but Lee Hyuk suddenly changed the rank of other talents.

But no one wanted it in KSF now.

It was also because rumors spread about what happened to the NDFs trained by Lee Hyuk, but that was one of the most crucial reasons.

‘Then you'll be promoted to NDF. ’

It was very well known how hard the NDF had struggled.

If things were to happen in the whole neighbourhood, or around the world, NDF would be the first to be called out and split up.

It may be half brainwashed, but there's not much to complain about, but seeing what the NFD is doing is definitely worth ten lives.

So who wants to get promoted to NDF?

Due to the occasional shortage of NDF agents, most of them are sick or ill, and if they make a recommendation, they come home crying and making a fuss.

“We'll be there on time from now on. ”

“Hmm.”

Lee Hyuk shakes his head as if he didn't like it.

“I don't usually like nagging.... ”

‘You like it. ’

You can interpret it the other way around.

“But, sir, ”

“Yes.”

“If you arrive late, you know people could die. ”

“Civilian evacuation is strict. ”

“What about the soldiers?”

“Yes?”

“Aren't soldiers people? What's that made of sand? ”

“ ……. ”

“I don't understand why I would let a person die just because I'm a little bit comfortable. Isn't that right?”

“That's true. ”

The face of the noun was stiff.

Elementary students could also know, but they couldn't figure out why they were unconscious.

Lee Hyuk glanced at the fame ceremony and turned his head.

‘Differentiating. ’

It was not that long ago that the concepts of humans were changing among the rituals of the competent. They don't even know it.

It's not weird.

Beraf did, too.

Those with magic and divine power believed that they were a superior race, and they enslaved the incompetent commoners like slaves or livestock.

If there is even the slightest bit of power, it is a person who gains the privilege of consciousness.

Even humans with no difference in abilities divide the rank with money and power. How much gap will there be if they start to be divided by their innate abilities?

No one was thinking about that at the moment.

There are only forces who want to use it again.

‘Alpha.’

In Lee Hyuk's head, the alpha looked good.

Right now, to him, an Alpha is just a dace that can be killed with one finger. So why does it bother me so much?

‘They've always been in trouble. ’

According to his long life experience, an alpha-like being must have caused an event.

That's why I might be so concerned.

Lee Hyuk shook his head.

If an Alpha is up to something, kill it. Lee Hyuk had the selfishness and strength to do so.

‘Anyway, I have to say, ’

There was no guarantee that only the Gangdong branch was like this.

NDF, which blends in with ordinary people like Choi Jung-hoon, is much better. Nevertheless, the NDF did not show signs of division until recently.

If so, the other branches were also experiencing a change in consciousness that was not significantly different from the Gangdong branch.

“The gate is open. ”

Lee Hyuk's thoughts stopped there.

Preparation is good, but right now we need to get things done first.

“All units, position shooters! Fires at the same time as monsters appear. ”

As the applause gives the order, the cold tension starts to spin on your back.

Have you forgotten too much? ’

I feel strangely nostalgic because I haven't participated in a typical gate operation for quite some time.

It's not even that interesting.

Soon, the gate crashes, and the black monsters within begin to protrude out.

“Fire!”

Tutu, tutu!

Personalized and Supporter fires simultaneously. It doesn't matter what comes out. He's a monster anyway.

“Oh, it's Felix. ”

It was my brother's monster.

According to word from this side of the world, is it Pegasus? Although it didn't have wings, it was more maneuverable than wings, so it was often tamed by Orc-like intelligents.

Is that Izuka? ”

Lee Hyuk looks at the giant monster in the shape of the snake leaping behind him and smiles deeply.

It felt good to see you for a long time.

“Polt and Eka……. ”

Lee Hyuk's face slightly distorted.

I'm familiar with it.

Everything coming out of the gate is eye-catching.

You're a monster. You're a monster. You're a monster.

It can't be!

To date, Lee Hyuk's knowledge of monsters has not appeared more than 3 times at the gate.

Monsters like the ones you saw in Beraf appear, but they feel subtle.

However, the things that were visible to Lee Hyuk were the monsters who knew each other well.

“Made in Beraf. ”

Lee Hyuk's voice was stiff.

It doesn't matter if it's a coincidence, but if it's not a coincidence, it means something's happening at the gate.

“I need to check.”

Lee Hyuk stood on the ledge with his face stiffened.

“Lee, Lee Hyuk? ”

Whoo-hoo!

At that moment, the Black Mana gathered in the excellence of Lee Hyuk and rose into the air.

“Huh?”

Soon after, the black Mana struck the ground, creating a huge lightning bolt.

Kuaang!

The monsters that came out of the gate with only a single lightning bolt turned into charcoal.

“Oh my……. ”

When she saw the scene, she opened her mouth. Lee Hyuk's power, which he only heard in words, was so strong that it was not compared to what he had thought.

And the range setting isn't perfect.

The soldiers surrounding the gate are not harmed by any of them.

“I'll go first! ”

Lee Hyuk said that, and when he opened the Black Gate and went inside, he opened his mouth with difficulty because he had been unable to speak for a long time.

“...... If you're going to do this, why did you call me? ”

You're crazy.
