Final exam D-1

“Should I just send a clean one today?”

After a brief thought, his fingers moved like lightning.

-Tomorrow is the final day, so prepare well and get good grades! ♪( ›◡‹ )

The transmission was seamless. I thought about it two or three times at first, but it’s all an old story.

A morning message as part of ‘Getting to know Shin Garam’.

I have been sending text messages every morning for a week, starting with a text asking for help without burden to get close to him during the final exam.

I haven’t gotten a reply yet, but Siu didn’t mind.

It’s because I think it’s also meaningful to think about the daily cheering message and ruminate on the promise to get close to her someday.

-Do you have time today?

Of course, getting a reply means the most.

Efforts don’t betray either.

– I’m trying to buy camping supplies, so please help me.

– I was going to buy it too, and it worked.

-really? Aren’t you doing this because of me?

-FALSE.

-lol

The last reply was about 5 seconds late, but the appointment was made anyway. training is canceled

Siwoo put down the plum sword and was about to leave the front door, but came back in front of the plum sword.

“I’m going?”

“I’ll go?”

“Are you going to come?”

Maehwa was silent. He was a guy who usually tickled (?) even if he put his hand on it, and responded by ringing his sword, but starting from yesterday, he didn’t respond to anything I said to him.

I tried joking around and saying I was sorry, but it’s always been this way.

After thinking about it, Siu decided to take plum blossoms.

Maehwa’s condition is predictably ‘I’m going home, don’t hold it’.

This is because they judged that leaving the plum blossoms alone was no different from sending someone who was told not to catch them home.

He gently touched the handle.

I hoped that the anger would be relieved quickly and I would hear the same sword as before.

Arrived at Siuga Square.

Garam didn’t seem to have come yet, so he sat down on a bench and someone approached him.

“Hello~”

familiar voice.

It was Garam wearing a hat and mask.

Why was it wrapped so tightly? The answer came quickly.

“No way, do they follow you on the weekends too?”

“Less than on weekdays.”

Isn’t that what you’re following anyway?

I almost cursed at it because it was disgusting, but I swallowed it thinking about the image I had created for Garam.

The reason why he dressed modestly in a white tee and baggy jeans was probably to avoid conspicuousness.

“Shall we go?”

“okay.”

I went through the customs clearance portal and headed to Gwanak-gu.

I bought camping supplies from a large mart and sent them to the academy. The delivery system using drones arrives on the same day by default, so it will be there by the time you return to the academy.

I bought the supplies organized in the community and the shopping was over in less than 30 minutes. Siwoo, who felt it was a pity to go back like this, offered a meal, and she readily accepted.

“What do you want to eat?”

“Um, well. Do you know of a restaurant?”

The restaurants he knows are a soup restaurant, a pork cutlet restaurant, a white rice restaurant, a pork belly restaurant, and a Chinese restaurant. It’s a restaurant lineup, but I know that it’s far from what women like.

“for a moment.”

Siwoo contacted Soyul. I texted Gwanak-gu to recommend a restaurant with a good atmosphere, and I got a call right away.

-A sudden restaurant? Gwanak-gu, now?

“ok. Do you know where?”

-I often order a soup restaurant across from the CVV building, and it’s delicious.

“Excluding rice soup, pork cutlet, white rice, and pork belly.”

-hamburger.

“Excluding that.”

-That’s a very difficult question.

“Ask the guys at the workforce. Can you do it in 3 minutes?”

-well. First off, I’ll ask.

Fortunately, a reply came within a minute.

Following the map, we arrived at a fancy high-end restaurant from the entrance.

There was a pretty garden behind the entrance decorated with lights and vines, and a stone-walled path led all the way to the restaurant.

“oh.”

As he entered the restaurant, an employee approached him.

“Have you made a reservation?”

Siwoo picked up his smartphone.

“You say you need a reservation?”

-wait a minute.

After a while, I heard a crackling sound from behind, and a man with ‘general manager’ written on his name tag ran out to the point where his neatly trimmed hair fluttered.

“I, I, I will serve you!!”

Siu and Garam followed him. It was a lounge on the 5th floor, but there was only one table even though it was a large space.

“It is an honor to have you visit ‘Tomet di Ocar’.”

After personally guiding us to the table, he bowed and said hello. Seeing that restrained and tense appearance, Siwoo realized that this place was one of the businesses in the manpower station.

I don’t know how Soyul introduced himself, but he extended his greetings with a sincere attitude and went out to serve food.

“what? Is this place run by someone you know?”

Garam, who had been quiet for a while, opened his mouth. Siwoo claimed that his cousin was involved in this place, and in the meantime, food was served. A man in a chef’s hat explained the recipe and history of each dish.

Siwoo wasn’t interested, but Garam was listening with his eyes shining. The head chef greeted me politely and then I was able to start eating.

“By the way, there is. Have you ever seen us before?”

“hmm… suddenly?”

It is inconvenient to eat pasta rolled up. Garam asked when he was contemplating whether to ask for chopsticks.

I don’t know what the old days of this body were like.

It’s an impossible question to answer, but I don’t think a kid who lived in the 4th grade zone had ever met her. Even if her family wasn’t wealthy, she lived in a third-class area.

And she almost suffered a lot of bad things when she was young. If, by any chance, this body had even the slightest connection to that bad past… .

Siwoo’s answer was quite stern.

“no? There will never be.”

“hmm… I guess so.”

“huh. I was an orphan and lived in a 4th grade zone before coming to the academy.”

“Ugh. okay.”

“what. Is there a reason you asked? Where do you think I saw you?”

“I don’t think I saw it. You are a bit different.”

“I? what?”

“well. It’s hard to pinpoint, but it feels like you know me well.”

Startle.

Siwoo rolled up the pasta noodles, put it in his mouth, and passed it down his throat.

‘It was natural.’

“Why do you think so?”

“Because he treats me differently than other boys.”

“… is it?”

“huh. So I was wondering if you knew me before.”

“Um, that’s right. Probably not.”

“Is that right?”

“huh.”

I thought about where it could have been so different, but I couldn’t find anything specific. Most men do helllele when they see her, but not all men are like that… . Looking at Kim Yo-han right now, he doesn’t have much interest in her.

Should I keep some distance? But, is there such a thing as distance? Today we finally have a meal together… .

The meal was over, not knowing whether it went in through the nose or through the mouth.

After parting at the portal customs office, Lee Si-woo went to train. He, who looked strangely nervous from the dinner table, went away like that.

Returning to the dorm, Garam started packing for tomorrow’s final exams.

I put camping supplies, clothes, and equipment for healing in the pockets of the subspace. After preparing for about 30 minutes, I lay down on the bed.

Her only hobby was to lie in bed and stare at the ceiling to kill time.

Some will curse at me for being boring, saying that my youth is a waste of time. That doesn’t mean she’s helpless.

I empty my thoughts and just watch the time go by helplessly. She had no clear goals in life and was not interested in people and the world, so she did not regret spending her time like this at all.

Do you have any regrets in life? Do you not know the meaning of life?

Then, suddenly, I felt a sweet taste in my mouth.

The meal I had with him today, the delicious aftertaste lingered in my mouth.

“it was tasty.”

Best thing I’ve ever eaten.

The spread that started from the reverberation moved to Lee Si-woo before I knew it.

“You said you didn’t know me.”

He answered the question that was thrown at him like that.

“lie.”

His emotion when he looked into it was bewilderment.

When I first met him, I thought it wouldn’t make sense to have feelings of admiration in the square, the first time I met him… .

He knew himself from the start.

“Who is it?”

If so, when did you meet?

I couldn’t remember the name or face of Siwoo Lee.

If so, did they meet when they were too young to remember? Then why don’t you tell me where you met? And how does he still have memories from when he was very young?

Many questions came to mind, but no answers came.

However, the first question is not without a solution.

“It’s been a while, so it’s a bit awkward… … .”

She called somewhere.

After knowing ‘that fact’, I’ve become quite estranged… … . The only place to look for answers is here.

Truru-

The smartphone had ‘Mom’ written on it.

The day of final exams dawned.

Of course, there are no portals on Deer Island. After getting off at the portal customs office in Incheon, I moved to the port and boarded a boat.

There was an inspection of belongings right away.

Some cadets caught ramen and chocolate, and their points were deducted before they even started, and there were cadets who made the instructors absurd because they had to have a camper.

The thing Siwoo found most absurd was the bastard who brought the condom. I was surprised that there were so many of them, and I was even more surprised that the instructors didn’t collect them.

It was Siwoo’s turn.

“This… … what?”

“It’s a totem.”

At first glance, the unusual-looking wall carvings and wooden dolls aroused the instructors’ suspicions. Preparations for this have been prepared in advance.

A ‘blindfold’ sold at a dimensional shop, a consumable item that disguises the performance and effect of an item.

The appraiser finished the appraisal and said.

“Yes, it is a totem. I think it’ll be fine because it’s a lower class.”

“next!”

The inspection was successfully completed.

After that, I received 5 days worth of food and a smart band and returned the smartphone.

“Now, everyone, concentrate. I will explain the functions of the smart band.”

The description of the withdrawal method, rescue request, and toxicity determination function was short.

“Finally, ‘Map’. If you press the button at the bottom, a hologram that imitates the topography of Deer Island appears. It is possible to map like this by setting up a unique flag.”

The supervisor continued the explanation by displaying a hologram.

“After one week, the top 20% of points held are displayed on the map. It is not stamped with exact coordinates, but appears as a rounded range.”

It is a system that blatantly promotes brawls. It is said that as the day changes, the range narrows and the exact location appears.

The top kids look at each other. The lower-ranking children also look back at each other and strengthen their will. It was a mission with a strange sense of tension, but Siu was alone.

Because high grades in this final exam were not his goal.

“Everyone is coming.”

Islands began to appear. The area around the island shook strangely. It was probably a wide-area barrier to prevent the monsters on the island from going outside.

“Where do you want to be?”

I turned on the hologram on my smart band and rummaged through the mountains and forests. It was to find the altar of the higher rank monsters hidden on that deer island. It is also the location where the Hidden Quest takes place.

“I’ll know once I get there.”

I don’t know the road to it clearly, but I remember the approximate location. The most accurate way is to watch Kim Yo-han and Jin Hyeon-min from a distance and enter the cave they enter on the third day, that is, the place where the altar of the higher level monster is located.

However, even if you enter the cave together, you cannot participate in the subjugation of higher level monsters.

It’s because you can’t move your body if you perform the hidden quest.

The hidden quest is about the origin of the sealed high-ranking monster, and its origin is related to the ‘underworld’.

“To think that the day will come when you have to live and live and go to the nether road.”

Siu shook his head. It was because the situation was pitiful.

The living go to the world of the dead. Of course, there is a time limit, and within that time, regardless of the success of the quest, you must return unconditionally.

Or you’re trapped in the underworld.

He could die if he did, but Siu had to complete this quest.

Failure doesn’t matter. In fact, he had no interest in the hidden quest from the beginning. Hidden Quests are just a means to go to the underworld.

In the underworld, there is someone I will definitely meet there. The one I had in my plan since day one of the academy.

That person is Siwoo’s real purpose.

The ship arrived soon.

The final exams have begun.

For Siwoo, it was a job that depended on the future and the beginning of a job that he had to do for various reasons.

“Ugh.”

He sighed and entered the island.

Have you been very lonely?

sorry.

At that time, I thought that I shouldn’t show shaking. That’s why I drove you like that.

When I see you wandering around, I feel like my weakness will spill out. I pretended to be so stern because it felt like the dam I was barely holding on to was about to burst.

The more you do, the more you stray and our relationship is ruined.

The problem was my sadness and weakness, and I tried to find the answer in you.

It’s my mistake.

I was stupid. It was foolish.

I wanted to raise them with love and I wanted them to be happy.

All your unhappiness and sorrow came from me.

I lost my wife and you lost your mother, but we never hugged each other and shared our sorrow.

We couldn’t sympathize with each other, and the goal of conflict only deepened day by day. We were close, but more distant than anyone else.

I regret the past so much.

son, i’m sorry

It’s late, but I want to apologize.

So, will you show up just once?

I came all the way here to find you.

He was willing to risk his life for one apology.

my son

my dear son

Can’t you even show your face?

“Cheolwoo… … .”

The man’s words were scattered in emptiness.
