The Returner

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

“Hmm……. ”

Lee Hyuk smiled favorably as he watched the alpha's reaction that wouldn't give in to his eyes.

“Anyway, it's not cowardly. ”

“Without that trait, I can't talk to Lee Hyuk. ”

“My mouth survived. ”

“That's a necessary characteristic. ”

Lee Hyuk smiled as he watched the Alpha without a word.

“Well, okay. ”

Whatever the Alpha is up to, it doesn't matter now.

It is Lee Hyuk's position to hold hands with anyone but the devil if necessary.

“But I need you to step up a little bit. ”

“I have three noses. ”

“You do realize you're not the kind of situation that can be solved by being strong, right? ”

“He does, too. ”

Alpha sighs deeply.

“But it's true that it bothers me. ”

“I'm annoyed too. ”

“Hnng.”

Alpha shrugs.

“Well, good. I should do what Lee Hyuk wants. But I have a question for you. ”

“Tell me.”

“Do you really not want to join me? ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk stared at the alpha without answering.

Alpha began to support Lee Hyuk's reaction.

“Of course, I know that Lee Hyuk is not interested in power or wealth. If you want, there's no more comedy in the world than someone who has the ability to put everything under his feet to move for it. It's just... ”

Alpha's face became serious.

“Lee Hyuk must know that. This world sucks. ”

“The whole world is a mess. ”

“Yes, of course. ”

The Alpha holds his head back.

“Ever since humanity appeared in the world, there has been no frivolity in the world. It was the same in this world. It was the same in the world where Lee Hyuk was. That's how people are. ”

“You know better. ”

“But I can change that. ”

Alpha's eyes glow.

“The transformation into a sensible world has always been something that humanity has pursued. Humans are slowly but gradually changing reasonably. ”

“ ……. ”

“It doesn't make sense that we won't succeed in the future if we don't succeed. I know why Lee Hyuk doesn't want to join us, but he doesn't know that unless he tries that, too. Isn't that right?”

Lee Hyuk secretly looked at Alpha and opened his mouth.

“It's not so hard to change the world when a smart guy has all the power. ”

“Hehe. Well, I don't think he's that smart. Powerful people are stupid. ”

“But for whom is the change? ”

“ ……. ”

“Can a society where the majority is hard and the minority is fun be rational? ”

“I didn't know Lee Lee Hyuk was a utilitarian. It's the way of the world, isn't it? ”

“Of course it is. ”

Lee Hyuk nodded quietly.

The world is a breeding ground. That's the truth. As he entered the modern world, he acknowledged that the measure of strength changed not to power, but to wealth and power, but that the fundamental value of the world was weakness.

“The crisis has brought about, and it's just stagnating. The hierarchical change in humanity as a result of its emergence is a natural flow. And again, when other people get up, not me, the blood that needs to be spilled, it's going to get incredibly big. ”

Pair!

Alpha lightly applauded and gazed at Lee Hyuk quietly.

“And if Lee Hyuk is on the other side, the damage will be even bigger. ”

“Big damage? I don't think so."

“Oh, don't do this. ”

Alpha spins and laughs.

“Of course, you can't stop Lee Hyuk if you really want to get rid of me and the people around me. But you can't stop the water from flowing down. Even if you build a dam and a bead, you can't stop the water from flowing, but you will someday overflow. And then there will be unimaginable damage. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Lee Hyuk turned his head back.

I'm not wrong.

The goal between the competent and the layman was already unbearable.

Now that the horse system has invaded, we fight together, but the moment we lose our enemies, we will reveal them to each other.

‘It's not important right now……. ’

I couldn't help but think about it.

Unfortunately, the conflict between the competent and the incapable was not solved by time as a matter of race. If the difference between white and black was racial, the difference between competent and incapable was similar to that between humans and monkeys.

It's almost the appearance of a new species.

“Humanity has already lost its power. It's time to move on to a new world. ”

“I'm a human being? ”

“A capable human being. I know Lee Hyuk can already handle the ether. ”

“ ……. ”

“Just help Lee Hyuk reduce the sacrifice. How will the historian rate Lee Ji-hyuk? ”

Lee Hyuk scratches his ear and whistles with his mouth.

“I'm sorry, I'm not the type to care about that. I don't care what anyone else thinks of me. ”

“ ……. ”

“And it doesn't seem to me like you're either human or helpful. Are dogs fighting each other to decide whether to take the side of the larger dog or the side of the smaller dog? Usually I hit them both and throw them in the corner. ”

“... I wish we were a big dog. ”

“Well, whatever. ”

Alpha said blankly.

“I know that Lee Yi Hyuk's head is complicated. If you're not going to take our side, please don't take theirs. It's totally cheesy for Lee Hyuk to be involved in the flow of history. ”

“But I still don't understand you. ”

“What's that? ”

“I'm just a helpless scarecrow now. And you want to think about what happens next while the Demon King barges in and fights over Maneha? ”

Alpha sighs.

“Why do you know so well? ”

Alpha pulled the cigarette out of his pocket and bounced back at Lee Yi Hyuk. Lee Hyuk, who received the cigarette, lit a fire and inhaled deeply.

“People who only think about what's happening right now can't change the world. So we need to be prepared for the future, thinking about what to do right now. And... a scarecrow? ”

I smiled as if the Alpha was ridiculous.

“Lee Hyuk can still do it with just one finger if he wants to. No cat can attack an elephant through a gap because its leg is broken. ”

“How much change can an elephant turn into a rat? ”

“As an ant, you can't afford a rat or an elephant. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Lee Hyuk nodded with a shivering face.

“Humans are quite optimistic. You can still think of the future in this situation. ”

“That's why we're human. ”

The Alpha has risen from its place.

“Even if your limbs are cut off, you can reach out with a smile if you can survive. Even though humanity is nearly extinct, if we can win, we can someday restore our culture. ”

“ ……. ”

“It's a fight about who stands at the end. So that's what I said. Don't worry about saving one more now. They're going to die whether they get stronger or not. ”

Lee Hyuk made an impression.

Even though it was inevitable, the Alpha was pushing into his face the reality that he didn't want to face.

“Most of Ms. Lee's favorite NDFs will die too. That's what being a Horse is all about. Isn't that right?”

“That's right."

“But what are you waiting for? ”

Lee Hyuk closed his eyes quietly.

Everything falls apart. Everything disappears.

people I knew, people I was talking to, people I had mixed and married, and people I had feelings for.

Everything disappears and disappears.

There's only one left.

No one better knows how scary and frightening it is to be left alone than Lee Hyuk.

“That's why.”

“… Yes? ”

“As long as there's someone left at the end, we win. I'm aware of that. By the way... ”

Lee Hyuk's face distorted.

“What's the point of winning like that? ”

“ ……. ”

“Funny story. What does it mean to me that humanity exists? After I'm gone, what does it matter if humanity dies or not? ”

“That's cynical.”

“If we're not going to live together, we're not going to survive on our own. I'd rather die together than stand alone at the end. ”

Suddenly, the face of Lee Ji-hyuk began to play a prank.

Lee Hyuk, who had a face that looked like it had been piled up and piled up, suddenly woke up.

“Oh, this is it. ”

Lee Ji-hyuk, who turned his back on his shoulders, smiled.

“I think I know why I was frustrated. I think I know why I haven't been myself. ”

“… Yes? ”

“Sacrifice and whatnot, who lives and who dies, and who cares about that. What does that have to do with me? ”

Lee Hyuk laughed as if he had let go of the burden.

“Yeah, that's it. Either we die together, or we all live together. That's what I was hoping for, but I was wondering what the situation was. I'm not a savior of humanity, nor hope. ”

“… No, I……. ”

“I didn't think I'd have to worry about it if I let it slide. Thanks to you, it was refreshing. Thank you. ”

“Thank you?”

Alpha looked at Lee Hyuk with a ridiculous face.

Why is that conclusion coming out of the conversation just now?

“I think I know what to do now. It's been too serious for me. I'm going to sleep tonight. Here we go.”

“No, wait a minute. Wait……. ”

“Oh, right. ”

At that moment, Lee Hyuk spun around and suddenly kicked the alpha's face.

“Ouch!”

I looked at Lee Hyuk with a face that said he didn't know English while bleeding out his nose when the Alpha that flew into the wall.

Lee Hyuk smiled and replied.

“I suck at this. Get the rest of the boys together at the Marine Corps tomorrow. ”

“… Lee Ji-hyuk? ”

“Here we go.”

Lee Hyuk lit the cigarette again, and he went to the house, singing a nostril. Alpha, who was watching the process quietly, frowned and began to burst into laughter.

‘Anyway, he's an unpredictable man. ’

It's a good thing that Lee Hyuk regained his strength. The person he knew, Lee Hyuk, did not fit in that way. It was Lee Hyuk's way of blaspheming and blaspheming while risking his life.

“Now we have all the pieces. ”

Alpha slowly got up from his seat with a face he had never seen before.

A long, long relief boat is now running toward the end.

“Do you need him? ”

The Alpha nods quietly as he hears the voice coming from behind his back.

“Of course. He will be the last key to this plan. ”

“I don't understand. ”

“You can't tell with your stupid head. You just have to do as I say, Horse. ”

Argoras frowns at the smiling Alpha.

‘Humans are like chaos. ’

Lee Hyuk and the Alpha... They couldn't understand much through the common sense of the Mages.

But one thing's for sure.

These two human movements will shake the world greatly. The same goes for the horse system.

Argoras glances at the spreading Alpha's back and slowly turns away.
