The Returner

[448] 5. Whether they are good or bad (3)

“Damn it.”

Michael gritted his teeth and stared at Lee Hyuk.

I've been told to meditate and feel Mana, but all I hear in Michael's ears is nonsense.

Lee Hyuk, who was visible to him, was only a human being who oppressed thousands of people and suffered and rejoiced.

‘It's a terrible thing to think about. ’

I thought I could understand why the words "Lee Hyuk" and "Lee Hyuk" were heard in my ears.

Even the alpha people who are lying on the floor in front of Lee Hyuk now could easily understand why the name Lee Hyuk spread to the world.

No matter how hard they try to avoid an attack, how can one human being temporarily disable a thousand abilities?

‘It can't be possible. ’

It would have been impossible for a mediocre power. However, Lee Hyuk was doing it naturally with a single gesture.

And that made Michael even more nervous.

"You can't fight the Demon King even if you have abilities like that?" ’

If Lee Hyuk could defeat the Demon King, they wouldn't have to be trained like this. Even that Lee Hyuk can't face the Demon King, so they have to be strong.

‘But can this training really make you stronger? ’

Even though they are getting stronger, most of them can't even feel it until the end of five days. When do they learn Mana and become as strong as Lee Hyuk?

I heard that at least three thousand of them have to be strong enough to fight Lee Ji-hyuk in order to plan for the future. However, when I looked at Lee Hyuk's hands and saw the abilities falling out at the same time, I wondered if it was possible.

‘That's frustrating.’

If I see any progress, I will hold on with hope, but... not only that, no one is making any progress, so I couldn't help but get discouraged.

“I'm staring at you. ”

Lee Hyuk smiled as Choi Jung-hoon said.

“I see.”

I don't think Lee Hyuk has done anything wrong with that man, but he has been expressing his hatred openly.

“Is it going to be okay?"

“Leave it. ”

“But……. ”

“There must be one in every class, kids like that. ”

And there will be one in many organizations.

Those who always try to rebel half-assed without following a stubborn horse. Those who want to be comforted by their rebellious posture and not obeying others now.

Their characteristic is that they never cross the line.

Now, if Lee Hyuk touched Michael, he would become a zombie who persecuted people just because he looked at them with a grudge.

Of course, it's Lee Hyuk who won't blink even if he is treated like that....

“You don't have to touch me. Kids like that never take risks. ”

“Yes?”

“The real upside-down ones are rather quiet. I'm waiting. I don't give a shit. ”

“Hmm……. ”

I didn't agree with everything Lee Hyuk said, but at least I couldn't agree with the one person named Michael who was going to do something big.

If he really wanted to rebel against something, he wouldn't be so clumsy.

“You can't be a villain. ”

The alpha stumbles down with a mouth-like, literally mouth-like mortal.

“He whines when he touches someone like that. He whines when he leaves them alone. But if you want to know if it's any more than a sign, it's not. Rather, it's important how the surroundings react to that sign.... ”

Alpha tilts his head.

“I don't know about the surroundings because I can't see them well, but could Choi Jung-hoon take care of them for me? ”

“Do your thing, you crazy bastard. ”

“You're working hard. ”

Lee Hyuk sighed.

I'm supposed to squeeze that muzzle.

It is an alpha that accepts Mana with its whole body, but opens its mouth as if it is very familiar with the pain.

“All I did was talk. ”

“Oh, it's a habit. ”

“Manners?"

Alpha's mouth smiles.

“If you don't give me feedback on what you're feeling with your mouth while you're doing the experiment, I've been beaten by a bunch of Yankees who won't stop experimenting, and at this point, if their mouths are still alive, they're forced to say something. ”

“Aren't those Yanks your beloved natives? ”

“Bingo. Yes. ”

“And yet the patriotism speaks of itself. ”

“Aigoo, it's not good to see the whole country bad just because there are a few fools who have gone astray. ”

“Isn't that the country that built the testing ground? ”

“So I tried to kill them all. even though the president was an idiot, and it was not in his best interest to kill anyone except Christopher. ”

“It's not a gain? ”

“Well, if a cripple's up there, why kill them to get smart kids in there? You can't do that. ”

“Mmmm... ”

“You know very well that if your boss is an idiot, he'll ruin the country. Excuse me, my country?"

“Shut up.”

I increased the amount of Mana that was stabbed by Ji-hyuk Lee.

“Shhh, wow... This is a joke. But……. ”

The alpha said with a less trembling voice.

“I just have to stay like this, but is Lee Hyuk okay? You're running Mana that can take on all these people at the same time. I don't think he's gonna make it. ”

“You're thinking of a cat rat. ”

Lee Hyuk smiled.

‘But I didn't learn magic in vain. ’

It was as the Alpha said. Now he's running enough Mana to open his mouth to the Grand Wizards of Beraf. I thought it would be okay to serve as the Grand Wizard.

Of course, you don't even know how to run into the Demon King with this.

Can ten arc mages in Beraf handle one Demon King?

After 10 seconds of encounter, your head will roll to the ground. However, Lee Hyuk was only able to exert the power of two or three ordinary archers.

As a wizard, he was a stomatopod compared to his original strength.

Unlike what others admire, the higher the level of magic, the more realistic it becomes. Learning normal magic is no way for an individual to fight the Demon King.

It's like no matter how much ordinary people master swordsmanship, they won't be able to fight the tank.

Moreover, his ability is based on the magic camp placed around Dome, and his power will be doubled if he goes into battle.

Even if the Steaming Apeldryce comes to the mainframe, he won't stand a chance against the Demon King. It's no different from falling forward with a sword.

‘So I have to raise them.... ’

Lee Hyuk felt a headache.

I started it because I wanted to be a hundred times better than letting go, but Lee Hyuk was also frustrated because there was no progress until five days later.

‘We have to find a way. ’

He thinks this is the best way, but if it doesn't work, he'll have to find another way. I couldn't waste my time chasing the idea of 'somehow.'

They have no capacity, no time.

The countdown to destruction is almost over. Humanity won't last a month once the full invasion of the Horses begins.

“This is insane.”

I keep getting nervous.

“Don't worry about it too much. ”

Even so, Alpha comforted Lee Hyuk whether he lived or not.

“You'll soon find out, what Mana is like. ”

“I want you to know something. ”

“Aigoo, you're so ignorant of people. ”

Alpha scrambles up.

“I've been beaten for five days, and I can't believe I didn't notice. Now it's a process of improving adaptability. Affinity? Anyway, this is probably the best way to get used to Mana. ”

“Hoho?”

Lee Hyuk glanced at Alpha's hand quietly.

Mana is gathering by the hand of the Alpha, although it is weak.

'Wonderful, I must say. ’

Lee Hyuk just wanted Alpha to feel Mana. I thought managing Mana was the next step. However, Alpha is skipping the process and acquiring Mana's own operation.

It was a great gift.

“I like this method... but I have one piece of advice. Is it okay? ”

“Huh?"

“I think it's very presumptuous of me to stop talking about Mana. ”

“Tell me.”

Lee Hyuk knew very well that he did not have the talent to teach people. I couldn't handle Mana properly until Lee Hyuk became the Black Wizard in the first place.

Rather, the alpha who had barely begun to feel Mana could have been a much better teacher for them.

“Advice is simple. Are you going to go out and make fun of Manawa while no one else is dead? ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk narrowed his eyes to the low voice of Alpha.

“Is that all you have to say? ”

“Wasn't it a crisis? a crisis that humanity could destroy. But if we're going to teach them in this warm way, we're going to lose 10 more times. ”

“So?”

“Let's be sure. It doesn't matter if you're half dead. We have to increase Manawa and drive it to really die. And then there's nothing you can do about it. ”

“You're still breathing. ”

But it was obvious that I was attracted to him.

Lee Hyuk realized that there was no end like this.

“The biggest evidence is that I'm starting to feel Mana. I was baptized by the most Mana of them all. ”

“Okay, shut up. ”

Lee Hyuk sighed.

Sacrificing minorities for the greater good has always been one of his most hateful ways of thinking. No matter how extreme the situation, I don't want to choose.

“I agree to change the way we do things. ”

“Good choice. ”

“But that doesn't mean I'm going to do what you said. ”

“Then?”

Looking with a slightly suspicious eye, Lee Hyuk pointed to his subordinates who had fallen down in front of him.

“Just get rid of them. And……. ”

Lee Hyuk turned his head and looked at Michael.

“Bring him here. ”

“Ow!”

Alpha claps.

“Indeed. The slaughter of dissatisfiers in new ways has always been the preferred method for those with power. Is it really a textbook of the art of war? ”

“You shut up. ”

Lee Hyuk gestured at Michael.

Michael's eyes trembled lightly while keeping his eyes on Lee Hyuk.

“Come here. It's your turn. ”

Michael, who had heard Jung-hoon's interpreter, stood up with a stiff face. Then I started walking towards Lee Hyuk.

Lee Hyuk whispered quietly, looking at Michael with his splenic face.

“If I can be strong, can I die? ”
