Storm Warrior - Chapter 304



Only Noblemtl

#Episode 304, I guess something happened

If you have too much strength, control is usually poor.

Kwon Ha-seon’s mace passed exactly over Echion’s shoulder and flew straight into my face.

Since the distance wasn’t far, there were only two ways to avoid her attack.

Pull Echion slightly and use it as a shield, or bounce back that much with the recoil of pushing it away.

The former is too villain-like, so there is only one option left.

I stepped on Echion’s tailbone and threw myself backwards.

Phew!

The dagger was pulled out, and Echion’s blood scattered like water mist.

Huh!

Kwon Ha-seon’s mace narrowly passed over his greatly tilted upper body.

Fit!

‘Ugh!’

no… I think it grazed the tip of my chin.

chin!

I try to keep my balance when I step on the floor, but my knees buckle.

Parbat!

It was a moment.

The moment I finally regain my balance and raise my head,

Before I knew it, Kwon Ha-seon, who was floating in the air, fell with the force of hitting the shield.

The barrier was immediately deployed.

‘Fuck you. It must hurt… .’

Even if you block it, it will still be quite a shock.

Soon the lower part of the shield tore through the barrier and became stuck halfway.

However, an even greater aftereffect weighed down the entire barrier like a mountain.

Kwaaaang—!

“Ugh!”

The disadvantage of maintenance-type magic is that if the flow of magical power that makes up the magic is disturbed, it is fatal to the caster.

fault!

When the crushing force was offset to some extent, the barrier was removed and the seat was kicked out.

Since I can’t hurt Kwon Ha-seon, I can only avoid the heavy rain for now.

Of course, I was planning to reveal my identity now.

Boom!

‘omg!’

However, it was not easy to find time to open my mouth.

thud! bang!

If I were to compare myself, who already had the body of a superhuman, to an ordinary human being, Ha-seon Kwon had the physical ability of a gorilla.

He kept throwing his shield and constantly playing with his feet, but Kwon Ha-seon, who blocked the escape route one step ahead, pushed him like a beast.

‘right… ‘Fuck!’

As I was taking a hard step backwards, I happened to pass by the place where the mace had fallen.

chuck!

Kwon Ha-seon quickly picked up the mace and began striking in earnest.

thud! bang!

‘Keuok!’

As the power of the divine being added, it was really difficult to endure.

Of course, Ha-seon Kwon also has no murderous intent.

This was simply because of friction caused by different opinions about Echion.

However, the reason they did not stop even though they had already rescued the hostages was because they judged that complete suppression was necessary to prevent a recurrence.

(Or maybe it’s just my shitty personality that made me feel ignored.)

“S-stop! “Stop for a moment and listen to me.”

thud! Kang—!

“Hey, Ha-seon Kwon! “I’m Han Seongjun!”

Stop.

“… … !”

At that moment, Ha-seon Kwon stopped threshing.

However, he didn’t look surprised or embarrassed.

An expression that says he heard something ridiculous.

“Well, it’s like this for some reason… , I’m right. Seongjun Han… .”

But Kwon Ha-seon distorted his face horribly.

At the same time, a force that could not be compared to before swirled around her.

It was a feeling of anger and hostility that was clearly different from the speculation that had continued so far.

“Why, why are you doing that?”

Now that I’ve said it, there’s no way to prove myself as it is.

In the first place, didn’t Kwon Ha-seon have a polymorph magic circle engraved on his body so that ‘ideal’ superhumans wouldn’t be able to recognize him?

Even if I try to force myself to show my true self without destroying my tattoo again, I’m just imitating myself… .

Of course, Ha-seon Kwon is not fooled by such things.

While I was wondering whether I should take off my top, Ha-seon Kwon opened his mouth.

“… There has to be a limit to treating someone like a fool. mister.”

“No, it’s not like that… .”

“Just do it in moderation, really! Even if you choose… “Because you chose a name that should not be sold in front of me.”

“what… ?”

Anyway, the good news was that Kwon Ha-seon didn’t actually use that scary force.

Since the hostage had already been rescued anyway, Kwon Ha-seon smiled weakly and said, “Let’s stop.”

“If it really was you who hid Han Seong-jun’s appearance, right? then… “It’s better not to reveal your identity.”

“… “Why is that?”

“Because I will kill you… . “If he does something like that again, he’s really doing too much to me.”

“… … .”

What did I do so badly?

… At the same time, the words before him sent a chill down my spine.

Kwon Ha-seon shook his head and said, pointing at me with his mace.

“anyway… . “You lost, so don’t do anything stupid anymore.”

This means that you should give up any thoughts of threatening Echion again.

“… … “Sure.”

However, Kwon Ha-seon was also worried about Kang Seon-ho’s safety, so he knew what was needed next.

She turned to Echion and politely asked.

“If the 8th floor is not possible, please open the 7th floor. please.”

Meanwhile, Seong Hyun-soo, who had received instructions from Ga Guk-hyeon, was doing everything he could to inquire about the whereabouts of the head of the headquarters.

Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff, Government Affairs Headquarters Building.

smart. Suddenly.

Almost immediately after knocking, the door opened and the Five Kingdoms entered.

“Are you looking for me?”

“Oh, Chief Oh.”

Seong Hyun-soo finished answering the information on the head office’s secret phone, which was constantly turned off, and welcomed the Five Kingdoms.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“I’m sure you heard about the situation at the tower, right?”

“yes. Well, it seems like there’s a fuss because of that… .”

The five kingdoms’ gaze was directed to the TV screen turned on in one corner of the vice president’s office.

There is real-time news flashing around the tower.

“yes. In fact, the President, who went to the scene earlier for that matter, told us to find out the director’s whereabouts by any means necessary.”

“Suddenly the head of the department… “You?”

The Five Kingdoms scratched their heads in annoyance.

This is because the formula [Director = Chairman = Nagging] immediately crossed my mind.

“yes. You said it was an emergency. Considering the situation in which General Han appeared, it seems likely that the headquarters commander is in the tower. Or, even if that’s not the case… .”

“Now, wait a minute. “I heard that no one has come out of the tower since the thundercloud appeared?”

“yes. you’re right.”

“Fuck… “What if you tell me that now!”

The Five Kingdoms screamed.

Because it was a scary thing to encounter and the disappearance of the chairman was a completely different problem.

It was a traumatic memory because I had already experienced the absence of the chairman.

“… … .”

In fact, it was a very rude remark to Seong Hyun-soo, his superior, but Seong Hyun-soo did not blame the Oh Kingdom for his actions.

I knew that he was close enough to the director to react so strongly, and it was because of that relationship that Seong Hyun-soo had been called in the first place.

Wu Kingdom, who was fidgeting and shaking for a moment, suddenly snapped his fingers and said.

Perfect!

“ah… ! Gu Chang-soo! “Let’s find out where our friend Gu Chang-soo is right now!”

“… Mr. Koo Chang-soo? “If it were him, he would be in the tower right now.”

“what?”

Hyunsoo Seong picked up the file on one side of the table and opened it, intending to check it again.

Palak!

“I don’t remember on purpose, but Mr. Gu Chang-soo was included in the list of investigators who entered the tower today.”

“Give it to me.”

widely!

Wu Kingdom snatched the file and looked at it.

He was well aware that an investigation team was being formed.

The fact that Gu Chang-soo was included there.

‘But I never thought it would be today… .’

The Five Kingdoms, who had expected this, confirmed that ‘George Kim’ had been added to the list and threw the file on the floor.

puck!

“Aaaah!”

Seong Hyun-soo, seeing his strange behavior, asked cautiously.

“… “What does Mr. Gu Chang-soo’s whereabouts have to do with you?”

“there is. No, there isn’t, but there is. “The chairman, no, the general manager is in the tower!”

In fact, until just before entering the vice-director’s office, the Five Kingdoms had not paid much attention to the phenomenon that had occurred in the tower.

It’s not because he’s a ‘bastard’, but because unusual phenomena themselves are just everyday life for humans living in a paranormal era.

Of course, the people who had to react sensitively to such ‘daily life’ were public officials.

Anyway, the Five Kingdoms personally viewed it as a phenomenon that would be resolved naturally once the thundercloud disappeared.

The tower has not yet been closed, so most of those trapped will be safe.

But now I sense that this is not normal.

That’s because everything the Chairman has been involved in has been like that.

Wu Kingdom, who had been staring blankly at the tower on TV for a moment, suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly inserted the cockpot.

“Well, how did you… , ah. “Where are you living?”

Seong Hyun-soo, who was watching, asked, but it seemed as if he was soon connected to the other person, and the Oh Kingdom focused on the phone call.

Because it was in Spanish, I couldn’t understand the content.

Seong Hyun-soo became embarrassed and turned his head to the TV.

‘… … Anyway, does this mean the head of the department is over there right now?’

At that moment, a small ripple appeared on the screen that projected the surrounding area of ​​the tower in the distance.

To be precise, it is the agitation of the crowd surrounding the tower.

“… … .”

I couldn’t turn up the volume with the person on the phone next to me, so I tried to get up and look, but soon subtitles came up to help me understand.

[Breaking News] Unidentified armed forces clash with access control units while attempting to forcibly enter the Tower of Desire.

***

Aaron’s house, Rioja, Spain.

Aaron wrapped a piece of Garotta cheese in parchment paper and held it out in the air.

“Gaon.”

Rustle.

Shin Seon-ae quickly took the cheese and put it in her bag, then took out her tablet and tapped on the screen.

Soon, a TTS voice translated into Spanish came out of the speaker.

“Seongyoon took me to the royal castle.”

“It seems like he’s coming and going from his own home. Do you really want to become an in-law?”

“That is up to them to decide. “I have no intention of opposing it if it were Ivy.”

Aaron clicked his tongue as if he didn’t like it.

“You look like a bastard… . How dare Princess Ivy… .」

“Are you cursing your child in front of his mother?”

“You’re my friend, but you can’t talk to me comfortably?”

“In that case, Aaron. “My friend’s mother is begging, can’t she just have one more piece of cheese?”

“That guy’s shamelessness was all inherited from his mother.”

Shin Seon-ae, who was laughing hard, got up in a somewhat pouty tone.

Come on.

Next, the completed sentence flowed from the tablet.

“When my son comes back, I’ll tell him that your friendship is no better than two pieces of cheese.”

Because of Shin Seon-ae typing the text, the actual tiki-taka between the two was frustratingly slow, but Aaron seemed comfortable as if he was already used to the speed.

Because a long time ago, my conversation with my granddaughter Mia was exactly like this.

Aaron smiled and responded.

“Your son will stab you in the back if he finds out that his mother has been eating up a ton of sweet celery.”

“Sweet celery? “What is that?”

“There is such a thing. “If you got what you wanted, go now.”

Aaron waved his arm and chased Shin Seon-ae away, but followed her out the door.

“Will you take me there today too? “I didn’t come in a wheelchair today.”

“okay. “I know because I hear footsteps.”

Aaron, with his eyes closed, walked side by side with Shin Seon-ae.

Shin Seon-ae looked at Aaron for a moment and tapped her tablet as she walked.

I felt hesitation at the tips of my fingers.

“It may be rude, but when you look at Aaron, he doesn’t look uncomfortable at all.”

Aaron smiled faintly and nodded.

“Actually, there is nothing uncomfortable. but… “I just have some regrets.”

Shin Seon-ae, who was about to ask what she regretted most, thought it might be really rude, so she deleted what she had written.

However, Aaron continued his answer as if he had read Shin Seon-ae’s thoughts.

“It’s nothing special… I wish I could look at a photo at least once. “I’m also curious about the face of the shameless mother who eats my cheese.”

“… !”

It was like that.

Aaron failed to do things that were so obvious and obvious.

Shin Seon-ae blushed, blaming herself for speaking without thinking.

Of course, she was just impressed by Aaron’s athletic ability, which was unusual for a blind person, but if she thought about it a little deeper, she should not have said it.

Shin Seon-ae, who was quickly writing down an apology, suddenly trembled slightly and dropped the tablet.

“Ah, uh… .”

widely!

「… !」

Stop.

Aaron, who sensed Shin Seon-ae’s uncomfortable presence, quickly scanned the surroundings, but could not detect anything.

Aaron felt under his feet where the sound came from and picked up the tablet, then handed it to Shin Seon-ae and asked.

“why… “What’s wrong with it?”

Shin Seon-ae couldn’t express in words what she just felt.

Creepy unpleasantness.

It’s somehow ominous.

A momentary feeling of helplessness.

The fear that there might be a cause for all those sensations… .

However, since I was not sick, I put my finger on the tablet to reassure Aaron.

However, my hands were shaking so I couldn’t touch it properly.

Of course, Aaron, who had to gauge everything based on presence, saw that Shin Seon-ae did not respond even after sufficient time, so he suddenly picked her up and carried her.

“Excuse me.”

“ah… uh!”

Papad!

Then, with a few leaps, he ran up the hill to George’s farm.

When I finally felt the presence of workers nearby to help me, I suddenly sensed a grand energy that had not been there before.

‘Casas… .’

The identity of the energy was a familiar one, but the voice that was soon heard was more urgent than usual.

“Oh, old man! Chairman… .」

‘If that guy were the president… ‘Are you talking about George?’

Aaron noticed that the reason Casas was speechless was because of Shin Seon-ae, who was riding on his back.

But it was already too late when Shin Seon-ae jumped off his back.

And shouted.

“By any chance, something happened to us, Seongjun?”

「!」

「… !」

Realizing that she had spoken in Korean, Shin Seon-ae picked up the tablet and spoke again.

“I asked what happened to my son.”

Casas had no choice but to be caught between being surprised and worried that Mrs. Shin Seon-ae would be shocked.

“Uh, no… . Rather than saying something happened, I mean, it might have happened… “I don’t know the situation.”

“What does that mean? “Say it straight.”

However, she herself did not notice that she was speechless.

‘… Something must have happened. ‘Are you saying it’s a mother’s sixth sense?’

Aaron smiled bitterly and turned Shin Ae away from Casas.

“There aren’t many things in this land that would put your son in danger. Nothing will happen. “I’ll be there.”

「… “Aaron.”

“why. Aren’t I an old man without any inconveniences? Take good care of your voice. “Your son will like it.”

Shin Seon-ae, who did not immediately understand what Aaron meant, immediately covered her mouth with her hand.
