I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 59

59 – A Peaceful Day (2)

Mantra སྔགས

– Penetrating the deep spiritual abyss of existence.

– Borrow the original characteristics of a deeply spiritual being for 10 seconds.

‘What does this mean…’

Eunchae’s newly unlocked third tab ability is called Mantra.

‘I can borrow and use the characteristics of an object with a deep spiritual connection… Do I have the characteristic Dasan? ‘This is a trait that only applies when you have a baby, right?’

It sounded absurd, but that wasn’t what was important right now. Whether it can be used or not, the Insight trait opens up another possibility. Just stare foolishly into space for a moment.

– Phew- Phew-

Eunchae must have fallen asleep already, as she began to make a sound of shaky breathing.

“Let’s organize it first…”

After getting dressed, I carefully picked up Eun-chae, took the bed sheets and bedding, went outside, put them in her washing machine, took a shower, and came back into the room.

Looking at her still asleep, she was wondering what to do.

Knock knock-

“Huh? Who, who is it?”

When I opened the door slightly, Kahi opened the door a little more and glanced around the room, avoiding my gaze.

“Wow…What on earth did they do with the child…”

‘Oh my… I should have kept my posture a little straighter.’

The expression on Kahi’s face when she saw Eunchae lying naked on the bed with her legs wide open was very mysterious.

[I think I should take care of it first.]

“I’ll get you dressed and take you out, so please go outside for a moment.”

“Yes, yes”

Squeak- Tak-

I closed the door, came out, sat down on the sofa, and looked at the specks of light that filled the sky for a long time.

“It’s a beautiful night…”

I felt like my relationship with Eunchae filled me with something more than just s*xual satisfaction.

“Even if it’s just for one day… It’s a good memory…”

I suddenly wondered if I could get pregnant just once, but that was something I would have to think about later after taking a test. I thought that he must have had a strong desire to help the shelter in some way, so on the other hand, I was very grateful.

And a moment later, Gahi, who was dragging Eunchae, who was barely dressed, by her shoulders, motioned for her to come quickly. I ran over, picked Eunchae up, moved to the room, and laid her down gently on the bed.

“Uncle…”

[I feel great happiness looking at you.]

[I want to continue to be with you.]

“······Ah, sleep well then, everyone.”

“······Hmmm······”

I slowly closed the door, listening to the singer’s voice in silence. A message can be seen from Kahi through the gap in the closed door.

[I feel great emptiness and loneliness.]

‘···’

.

.

.

The next day, Eunchae did not appear out of the room. At least when I’m in the shelter.

‘Did I overdo it? Or did I hurt you…’

Kahi told people that Eunchae was not feeling well.

We briefly held a general meeting regarding equipment and made a training plan with Kim Hyuna and Hong Seol. As I was taking a break and exchanging opinions with people about new features and stage preparations, enjoying some free time after a long time, the afternoon passed by before I knew it.

Eunchae did not show up even after eating breakfast and lunch and preparing dinner.

“It looks like it hurts a lot?”

Her uncle asked Gahi out of concern, and Gahi replied that she was a little worried. And Jeong Jeong, who is making porridge, said that Ha-eun’s mother and Mr. Byeong-cheon Yoon were also not feeling well.

“The tension was relieved all at once… I think I was feeling physically achy due to mental fatigue.”

After hearing that story, it seemed plausible enough, so she nodded.

“Actually, my wife is also a little unwell…”

“Hmm? Where does it hurt?”

“No, no, I’m just so full that it’s a little hard to work now…”

“If you have a hard time doing it on your own, would you like me to attach Aksh*ta to you?”

Mr. Jeonggi looked embarrassed after hearing what I said, but said he thought it would be helpful if I could at least help with some of the lower work. I called Aksh*ta, who happened to be passing by, and offered to go into the kitchen, and she readily accepted.

– Can I try fish curry?

– There is some fish in the curry…

Although things started to go wrong from the beginning, Aksh*ta’s expression was not bad.

‘No matter what, you have to have your own part to be energetic…’

At that time, she suddenly heard a raised voice and listened.

“Wow, you son of a b*tch!”

“Wow, you’re still alive, you bastard.”

“People who get criticized live longer.”

The three obstetricians and gynecologists gathered on the sofa for the first time in a while, chatting, and then suddenly got upset. I was curious and asked why that was happening.

“There was a post posted in the job search section by the guy who was a b*tch during the first round. I used some vulgar language at that moment. I’m sorry, shelter director.”

Go Ok-ja apologized and talked about the bomb killer who caused chaos. This was something I had heard from Suzy, but it was still refreshing to hear it again. I was curious so I asked for information to be shared.

ㅡ

Explosions are art!

It will explode at fantastic timing. Ha ha ha.

Please refer to the abilities below.

Characteristic: Second Coming of Kuntu the Bomber (Special)

Stamina: 34

mana: 146

Strength: 28

Agility: 27

ㅡ

“I uploaded it after stage 16. His ability level would be roughly around level 8… With this level of ability and special level characteristics, you feel like he’s recruited right away. If you don’t know what kind of person this person is.”

If I knew that it wasn’t magic that gave me that fantastic timing, I would never recruit him.

A madman who planted a bomb on a teammate at the start of stage 20, detonated it, and committed suicide along with Suzy by entering the mouth of a praying mantis.

“I don’t know who took him, but he must have been in a lot of trouble~”

I quickly lost interest in Bomb Mania, so I went into my room and sent a message to Eunchae before dinner was ready.

Dog: Are you in a lot of pain?

I sent the message and waited, but there was no reply for 5 minutes.

“I heard that members of the same team can send messages even during the stage?”

Brurrr-

Eun-chang: Man~ hehehe, it makes me laugh when you say this hahahaha. My body is fine.

“Oh, I also created an ID.”

Dog: But why are you staying in the room?

Eunchang: Well… It’s a bit uncomfortable to walk…

“Ah… In the end, it’s because of that yesterday. I tried really hard to stay calm, but it’s difficult…”

Perhaps Eun-chae’s personality is such that she doesn’t want people to see her walking erratically.

Dog: I saw Kahi going in with rice, so I guess she will eat dinner inside too?

Eunchang: Neng, I think I’ll have to do that until today ㅜ

“Hmm… I guess I shouldn’t give her a potion?”

Dog: Didn’t you get a message or something?

The fertility trait is something that benefits you when you give birth to a baby, but I asked about it just in case.

Eunchang: Yes, nothing came up. What did you see? He was very surprised at the end.

“Wow… I saw it all, I thought you had lost your mind.”

Dog: I didn’t see anything either, I just did it because I liked it.

Eunchang: What did you like best?

“Ask this even though you know everything.”

Dog: Everything I did with you.

A reply came to my message after a while.

Eunchang: … You seem to have that kind of temperament.

Dog: What temperament?

Eunchang: I won’t tell you hahahaha. Please eat. Kahi brought rice.

“Whew… I want to run right away and see what he’s thinking. It’s quite frustrating to see this and then not see it again.”

Bulge-

“··· Why am I so excited even though we just talked through messages…?”

After settling down my greatly swollen lower abdomen, I went out. The dinner seemed a bit empty as five people were missing: Eunchae, Kahi, Yoo Insun, Haeun, and Yoon Byeongcheon.

“Haeun, are you sick too?”

When I asked worriedly, Hyuna said that was not the case. Her uncle smiled happily and continued.

“On the other hand, he’s taking care of his mom, huh. He’s such a good kid.”

I see…

After eating, I was sitting on the sofa when Hongseol came and sat next to me.

“Are you going to buy the commander’s full armor?”

Hongseol suddenly brought up a topic while I was thinking about something else for a moment.

“Hmm, I thought about it, but I think it would be less efficient to buy it right away. With that money, even if you buy 20 mob stones, you still have 1 million won.”

“You mean to increase the overall power?”

“Yes, I think it would be dangerous to concentrate all of the power on one person. Now, if two or three boss-level bosses start appearing, it will be difficult for me to take them all on my own.”

Hongseol nodded and asked again.

“There are no more recruitments, right?”

“······ Perhaps?”

“Ringling too?”

“I’ll make an exception for Lingling.”

Not right away, but we will try it out at an appropriate time. About coming to our shelter. Of course alone. And while watching Hong Seol, we talked about the disappointing parts of the last event.

“It would have been helpful to our team and personally if we had had some equipment in advance for this event, but I wasn’t able to get it.”

“As the number of things you have to decide on your own increases, it can happen. Since everything I didn’t think of was the same, I will think more deeply and act more from now on.”

[I hope you don’t worry about such trivial things.]

‘It’s not a trivial matter, since I lost points.’

It is no excuse that the response was delayed due to the habit of saving points to take advantage of the characteristics of the asset class. If only the items of those left behind were shared…

‘In hindsight, you’ll wonder why you didn’t think of it. When a situation arises, don’t panic and stay cool-headed.’

I swallowed my regret and looked at the information shared with Hongseol.

Hongseol (Lv9) (20)

Stamina: 34

mana: 193 (+55)

Strength: 29 (+2)

Agility: 41 (+1)(+5)

Attributes: Serya’s Arrow (Rare), Lulubi’s Whisper (Advanced), Sprint (Intermediate)

Equipment: Aeros Ka Wind Bow, White Hrakling Earrings, Spillier Mobstone Ring, Capo Schnell Shoes, Mobilam Lesser Helmet

“Well, I will have to buy the weighted skill unconditionally, and will I be able to use the Freeze Wizard? Unlike Lulubi’s Whisper, it is an attribute that eats up magic power.”

From Noble mtl dot com

“Thanks to this Wind Bow, magic consumption will be greatly reduced, so as long as you don’t freeze it on a large scale, you can fully utilize it.”

“Good. Request to purchase a weight and an ice magician, and I will also buy you a ring, elixir, and gaiters.”

“hehehehe, that’s good for me. I hope stage 22 comes quickly. I’ll be able to practice my traits for a year.”

I’m looking forward to it too. My abilities will decrease because the points will decrease, but the overall team strength will increase several times that amount.

‘Hong Seol and Kahi should get along as best as possible. ‘Because they are one of the few ranged attack positions in our shelter.’

Let’s fill in the remaining personnel step by step according to importance.

-250,000P

-199,800P

-490,000P

-77,500P

After stage 20, the points invested in Hong Seol were well over 1 million.

‘But the specs have also improved accordingly.’

Hong Seol (Lv9) (20)

Stamina: 49 (+15)

mana: 263 (+15)(+110)

Strength: 44 (+15)(+2)

Agility: 56 (+15)(+1)(+5)

Attributes: Serya’s Arrow (Rare), Weighted (Advanced), Freeze Wizard (Advanced), Lulubi’s Whisper (Advanced), Sprint (Intermediate)

Equipment: Aeros Ka Wind Bow, White Hrakling Earrings, Spillier Mob Stone Bracelet (2), Capo Schnell Shoes, Mobilam Low-Level Helmet, Panteros High-Level Gaiters

I could clearly picture in my mind the flaming arrows exploding from the windbow, embroidering the sky.

Softly-

After drinking the elixir he received, Hongseol trembled for a while, and even breath leaked out of his mouth.

‘He reacts completely opposite to me…’

Soon she shook herself off, stood up, lightly jumped on her floor a few times, and raised the corners of her mouth.

[I think it would be worth trying with you now.]

‘··· There are still a lot of points left.’

Points held: 9,106,296

‘It feels empty because one seat in front of me is gone.’

Hong Seol could not bear it anymore and ran outside, shooting dozens of arrows into the sky.

“Look at the firing speed… Wow…”

It felt like firecrackers were being launched into the dusky sky, so I looked outside without paying attention for a long time.
