The Returner

15 The Returner (21st coin)

5. That's also not a bad way (1)

“Well, what do you do? ”

George asked Lee Hyuk with a blue face. Others only thought the situation was serious, but George, the current KSF, knew how serious the situation was.

If you are swept away by the waves of monsters, your fragile human body will disintegrate in no time.

No, it was a good thing I was able to leave my body in pieces.

“Jihyuk.”

It was only Lee Ji-hyuk who could hang. Given the situation, it was too much to avoid. By the time we get out, we'll be a target.

‘But no matter how much Lee Hyuk……. ’

Is that even possible?

Monsters that size can't be solved in one location. At least five branches were expected to deploy in total to build an siege network, and to be hit at least by an air raid with the support of the defense forces.

To be honest…….

‘I don't know that either. ’

In the beginning, he had never heard or seen monsters of that size coming at once.

‘If only we could get NDF's support somehow……. ’

However, there are two NDFs here, so there is hope that they will be able to get help quickly. Until then, if we do our best to support Lee Hyuk and stop this place....

When George fixed his mind and looked at Lee Hyuk, he noticed something strange.

Gulp gulp.

Lee Hyuk, who wanted a cup of Coke, beat hard whether the monster came or not.

Jung Jeong-min watched the scene and opened her mouth.

“What are you going to do? Should I run away?”

“That's not so bad either. ”

Lee Hyuk finished eating.

“Why don't we just tell the kids to figure it out? Call Da-hyun and tell him Da-som here is drinking and he'll be there in three seconds. ”

“They're not playing. You must be busy... They won't even know you're here, so we have to go... ”

At that moment, Dogayun lowered her phone and nodded, not knowing when she heard it.

“Reported. ”

“Tsk?”

“Lee Hyuk. Present at the accident site. Report complete. Request for restraint. ”

“... So, you called Seo Ah Young and told her I was here? ”

“I do.”

“... What? ”

“Good luck. ”

“Hnng.”

Lee Hyuk scratched his head.

“Why did you do something you didn't ask me to do? ”

“Strange, with errors. My commanding officer is not Lee Hyuk. I follow Director Seo Young's orders. Orders are generally reserved for Director Seo Ah-young, and orders made by Manager Seo Ah-young come first. Report anomalies first. ”

“… Get lost! ”

“The mission is to keep an eye on Lee Hyuk. Cannot be turned off. ”

Lee Hyuk stared at Dogyoon and looked at Jeong-min.

“Is that the order I was given the first time I saw it? ”

“I think so. ”

“But hasn't it been updated yet? ”

“Ah-young is... well, she doesn't care about private things if you say it nicely, and if you say it badly, you don't think about it. ”

“Mmmm.”

Lee Hyuk nodded. It is definitely a reasonable explanation for one room.

“Anyway, I need to work while I'm here. ”

“... You're pushing it too hard, really. ”

“You need to have a conscience. Actually, you've been playing around lately. ”

“Play around! It's a good thing the firemen don't show up, right? It's best not to have an accident in the first place. ”

“Yay, yay. ”

George became dazed for a moment.

Don't you have eyes on these things?

Can't you see the monsters are coming out there like that?

“Ji-hyuk! ”

George urgently called Lee Hyuk.

“The kids are very anxious. ”

“Huh?"

Lee Hyuk looked back. My alumni were all white, so I didn't know what to do. They are already aware that it is too late to escape.

If you go outside, you will be a target of monsters, and even if you stay here, nothing will change. It was visible to them that monsters were coming from all over the building.

“Jihyuk.”

The women who insisted on Cho Mi and Min-won approached Lee Hyuk.

“Well, how can that be? We're not gonna die here, are we? ”

“Ha……. ”

Lee Hyuk sighed.

“Life is not that easy. I don't want to die. ”

I was able to say with certainty because of my experience.

“The monsters are coming like that. ”

“Phew.”

Lee Hyuk sighed.

There was no way I could stay calm while watching the monsters swarming around. These are civilians. Unlike themselves, they are unable to deal with any Goblins.

“Don't just say that, just use your hands. We're not the only ones here. It looks like we haven't evacuated the area yet, but if we delay, the damage will be greater. ”

“Ney.”

Lee Hyuk woke up from his seat screaming. It was annoying, but Jung Min-min was not wrong.

Given the time of the warning and the time of the monsters' arrival, the area is not completely evacuated yet. Then we must stop those monsters from waving.

“Heave-ho.”

Lee Hyuk waved his hand toward the air.

As the black gate opens in the air, a noodle protrudes out.

“Huh?”

The alumni who were looking forward to something opening the black hole opened their eyes wide when they saw the little puppy protruding from within.

What is this? Are you kidding me?

However, Lee Hyuk didn't have to explain any more. The tentacles that came out of Lee Hyuk's hand wanted to penetrate the myrrh, because the body of the myrrh quickly swelled and became the shape of a giant Ogre that looked like it was 5 meters tall.

“... What is that? ”

Rrrrghhhhh!

Ogre-shaped ghosts make a huge howl. More like a peer than a howling.

The monsters who heard the ferocious cries stopped and focused their gaze on the mist.

Did it stop?

The watchers stare at the monsters with crazy eyes. The monsters that were rushing so hard stopped there as if they were weaving.

How is this possible?

Glug-ug-ug-ug.

A fog reveals its fear and threatens the monsters as it groans.

“Oh, is that an ogre? ”

It was also famous among KSF that Lee Hyuk played the Ogre. There were too many witnesses.

Some even saw the moment Lee Hyuk captured Ogre, so what should I say?

However, he could not believe the sight that was unfolding before his eyes.

“That's coming? ”

He was part of KSF and has been involved in numerous operations.

When asked to come about half a year ago, ordinary talents were classified as unstoppable transcendent monsters, but nowadays they appear only once a month.

But I assure you, I have never seen or heard of such an ogre. For once, it seemed like more than twice the size of a regular Ogre.

And that burning red fur and that majestic look several times more magnificent than a normal Ogre. I didn't think it was a typical visit.

You look like you're going to count to ten. ’

Of course, it would be foolish to cut the monsters' strength into pieces, but considering that, I thought that Ogre would be stronger than a normal Ogre.

First of all, he's over twice the size and he cried once and tied all those monsters' words together.

This could never have been done as an ordinary ogre.

Lee Hyuk told Jeong-min.

“Hey."

“Huh?"

“But the fact that the monsters are here means the gate has been breached. ”

“Yeah, right? ”

“Then see what happened to the Defence Force and the KSF kids that stopped the monsters there. ”

“… Yes. ”

Jung Jeong-min's face became a little embarrassed. I didn't even think about it.

‘I'm discreet in places like this. ’

When Jeonghae Min turned around, Dogayun was already contacting him.

“Fast retreat when the defense line collapses. No damage, but not worrisome. ”

Lee Hyuk frowned.

Fall back? ’

Of course, considering the number of monsters you see now, it is quite noticeable that an unpredictable number of monsters came from one gate at a time.

Nevertheless, the civilians were behind them, and it took them to evacuate so neatly that the damage was not too great.

“What about the Guardian?”

“… the Defense Department is currently undergoing heavy damage repair. ”

Lee Hyuk's eyes narrowed.

“So... you're friendly, civilian and all that, and you just took your own life out of a rabbit? ”

“ ……. ”

Even Dogayun was speechless.

No one will be able to answer Lee Hyuk's words now.

“You guys are playing nice. ”

Lee Hyuk didn't want to blame them. Nothing is more important to man than his own life. Asking you to sacrifice yourself for someone else is evident violence.

It may be voluntary to sacrifice yourself, but it must not be forced by the system. So it should be a good thing to get out without damage....

‘It's gross. ’

Recent KSF movements were in opposition to his thoughts.

“For now, okay. ”

Lee Hyuk's eyes narrowed.

If so, it is clear that the monsters in front of you have done some damage to the Defence Force.

“Well, I can't help it. ”

It is common sense to kill a man with a door dog. Even if it's a monster, it doesn't change the outcome.

“Well, I'll be back. ”

Lee Hyuk got up from his seat and opened the door, and Jung Jung-min waved his hands and walked out.

“Fight carefully. ”

“Hnng.”

As Lee Hyuk tried to leave, Kim Da-som rushed in, grabbed his hand and whispered a small whisper.

“You can't get hurt. ”

“… Huh. ”

The pottery looked at the two of them with slightly pudgy eyes, and then went out along Lee Hyuk's back.

Choi Mi asked Jeong-min.

“Aren't you the same NDF? ”

“That's right.”

“Then why don't you leave? ”

“I'm a supporter. There's nothing for me to do there. ”

“... Really? ”

“If you cheer here instead, Ji-hyuk will be energized. ”

“Are you a totem?”

Or cheerleaders.

Jung Jung-min shouted as she watched Lee Hyuk walk out the window toward the monsters, ignoring the eyes of the fattest.

“Don't let the civilians get away from you! ”

Rrrrghhhhh!

“Oh, shut up! ”

The noodles that exploded in Lee Hyuk's voice narrowed his shoulders.

“Tsk, what a day. ”

Another day I could have left him roughly alone, but today was his day off and everyone else was busy. So we have to deal with it ourselves.

“Well, then…. ”

Lee Hyuk raised his hands.

“Humans will have tragedies of their own today, so you should join them. ”

Three black gates appeared in the air where Lee Hyuk reached out his hand.
