The Returner

“Are you talking about Lee Hyuk? ”

“That's right."

I knew Lee Hyuk was important, but I didn't think he would be called a king. Especially Lee Hyuk who lost most of his power.

He may still be as strong as the average person, but he is not strong enough to hold the key to this situation.

“Even though you've lost your strength? ”

“You sound stupid. ”

The Alpha kicked his tongue.

“Think about it, MacLaren. Lee Hyuk is the only one who might feel threatened by us there. What's left is annoying, but you think you can figure it out. No matter how strong we get, we can't take on the Demon King alone. But it's possible for Lee Hyuk. As long as the heads of the Demon Kings return to cockroach status, they will try to deal with Lee Hyuk first. Just like before. ”

“Mmmm... ”

Christopher is troubled.

“So you didn't see the Demon Kings' movements after you disappeared because you didn't catch Lee Hyuk? ”

“I don't know about that. ”

Alpha shrugs.

“I didn't even get inside their heads. How do you know that? But there's a chance. But I don't think so. If the guy you're looking for doesn't disappear, shouldn't he be hiding? Shouldn't he be more aggressive? You must have had an idea. ”

“In your absence, the Demon King Barbachera went there. He said he was the king of the weed. ”

“Worst name ever. ”

“I don't think you should be so insulted by what you said. Anyway, he said he'd disable the world in three days. ”

“Three days.... How many days have passed?”

“It's been a day. ”

“So that leaves two days. Things have changed, but that means we have two days to get into a gunfight. ”

“Maybe. So if you leave, the United States is in danger. ”

“Then leave your goofy men here. You have to work for America, but we don't have the power to waste it here for mankind. The fire's out, so I'm going to deal with the Demon King. ”

“... Are you saying that if you stick around Lee Hyuk, the Demon Kings will come? ”

“I would do that. ”

Alpha shines an eye.

“Now that I've been beaten this far, I need to hold on to one of the Demon Lord's wrath. I've hit a lot of interest before. ”

“... Good luck. ”

“Put a contact on this side. Maybe we should use weapons or make an immediate request. ”

“I see. Take your pick. ”

“I see.”

The Alpha bites the cigarette in his mouth and walks out quietly, Christopher bites the cigarette in his mouth.

‘I feel more and more complicated as things get more complicated. ’

But seeing the vision made me feel hopeful.

“That's incredible.”

“It's amazing. It's the same person, and I didn't expect it to be this different. ”

The returned powers roam like wolves among sheep.

Monsters weren't running away, but they were making it very easy for everyone around them to get into trouble.

‘This looks like some kind of game...' ’

If you call the Demon Kings boss, the monsters were quickly demolished from the dead to the mob.

“Lee Hyuk is Lee Hyuk. ”

I didn't want to have that much power, but I was amazed how I pulled them up so much in just three months.

“Well, okay. ”

Christopher whistles.

“Whatever Alpha says, I'll try it this way. ”

Christopher's eyes revived in a long time.

“I think I'll live now. ”

Living in this world was not an easy task. It involves multiple risks. The problem of survival was first, then the problem of symbolism.

There was also something to eat in this world.

However, even if you throw them away in the wild, they're still struggling to find food. Humans who were accustomed to seasoning and cooking could resist the raw ingredients.

Especially Lee Hyuk had a lot of problems in that area.

Lee Hyuk is the first person to come back to this world and find Cola. How many things have piled up since Lee Ji-hyuk couldn't even touch the proper food.

Lee Hyuk smiled as he felt the warmth coming from the coffee in his hand.

“Coffee is a mix, of course. ”

Even though the Americano was delicious, Lee Hyuk was still a mixed-coffee fan.

“Does coffee go into your mouth? ”

“Humans can eat under any circumstances. ”

“… Ah, yes. ”

I don't have anything to say if it comes out like that.

It seems that Lee Hyuk has experienced many times more extreme situations than Choi Jung-hoon. So it was a good idea to walk away from here and take a back-trip.

One of the people who knows Lee Ji-hyuk best is Choi Jung-hoon.

“By the way... can I leave it like that?" ”

“Really?"

“Shouldn't you be helping? ”

“Me? That one? ”

When I spoke and looked at the situation again, I had nothing to say. NDFs have been running around like they're relieving all the stress they've been under.

“I think I made a mistake. ”

“If you put your feet on awkwardly over there, you're going to blame me for stealing your job. ”

‘Fair enough. ’

Choi Jung-hoon shook his head.

He already had previous training with him. He received a completely different education because he was not a competent person, but he saw firsthand how they had been trained.

Lee Hyuk said that it wouldn't be as hard as the last time because he had experience and only learned how to do it.

Compared to what happened to them this time, the last job was just a training camp. It is a place where I feel proud that I went through hard work, but when I go to the base, I feel like it was heaven.

Even though he was trained to fly away several times a day and rebelled, everything was meaningless in front of the ruthless Iron Throne dictator.

Now that everyone had gained experience and increased their abilities, everything was over when a situation came where they could try Lee Hyuk together.

When the current flows through the fence, the animal first tries to escape a few times, but later, it doesn't reach the fence even if the current doesn't flow. It was the right partner.

When I thought that I could try Lee Hyuk together, it was after everyone had already gone to the situation where the body automatically reacted to Lee Hyuk's command.

And above all, it really sucks, but the problem was that the more you train, the more exponential you feel. The thought of rebelling here might not make them stronger.

In the end, I had to train again and again with a lot of unresolved stress.

And that's what's going on today.

‘Glad to hear it. ’

The time in this world was completely different from here. I've been practicing dense as I slept less, but I was worried about the situation when the Earth disappeared.

Luckily, it wasn't the worst.

No matter how foreign the country was, Korea managed to withstand almost no damage to civilians. Things would have been completely different if you had been here a day late.

“Only a counterattack is left, right? ”

“Dreaming isn't so bad, but reality doesn't change that much. Humans would have won a long time ago if they had been shocked. ”

The Demon King.

Essential reasons why they had to risk their lives to train. Even with a horde of horses, it wasn't as powerful as the Demon King himself.

A thousand rabbits can give you a lot more power than a tiger, but you can't beat a tiger. It is because the density of the force is different.

“And what about the Demon King? ”

“I think we're almost there. ”

Choi Jung-hoon frowned, looking at the sky across from where the black water began. If I can see the Black Magic power soaring through the sky, I think I have enough damnation. Why haven't I arrived yet?

“So, that's the proof the Demon King is coming? ”

“It's chaotic, isn't it?”

“Yeah, well, that's kind of it. ”

“Looks like they're flying in from the Chinese side... It might take a while to get here. It takes hours to get to the plane. ”

“… something's a bit strange because it's realistic. ”

The Demon Kings I saw in the cartoons went to teleport, but the Demon Kings here were flying like crazy with their wings fluttering. It was weird and funny.

“There are many types. They have the law, they have the death penalty. It's a good thing I didn't come swimming. ”

“… Well, they're also living creatures. ”

Choi Jung-hoon smiled.

Not long ago, the Demon King was indispensable to them. If it wasn't Lee Hyuk, it couldn't be stopped, and it couldn't even be countered. But now, knowing that the Demon King is approaching, I can spare time to analyze the type of opponent.

‘Cause I've been training like hell. ’

And now it was time to verify if the training really worked.

Choi Jung-hoon, who was slightly anxious, looked at Lee Hyuk.

“Will you help me? ”

“Oh, my gosh, he's such a whiner. ”

“No, but I've never seen the Demon King before, though he doesn't know how to drink. He's in the field. He needs to be taught a lesson. ”

“I've taught you how to do everything right, so I'll take care of it. If I was going to go through all this trouble, would you go through all this trouble? I almost died teaching you a lot of that stuff. ”

“Hmm.”

Choi Jung-hoon glanced forward with anxious eyes.

All the training itself was focused on dealing with the Demon King, but it was unsettling.

“There he is. ”

“Yes?”

Choi Jung-hoon's gaze turned toward the place Lee Hyuk pointed at.

I could see a black dot in the cloudy sky, and it suddenly swelled up enormously.

In fact, it's approaching, not inflating, but it looks like the dot is growing in size.

“I don't know why they're so ugly. ”

“Wouldn't they think the same thing? ”

“… that's true. ”

As they speak, the approaching Demon King suddenly falls to the ground.

Kuang!

The floor rises. At the same time, the Demon King roars.

Ooh, ooh, ooh!

The Demon King's presence was still overwhelming. Even Jung-hoon, who thought he had prepared enough, could feel he wanted to run away without even looking back for a moment.

However, Lee Hyuk couldn't stand Tae-hyuk.

“Hey, kid, you're making a big noise. ”
