Storm Warrior - Chapter 317



Only Noblemtl

#Episode 317, I believe.

Cha Yu-ra was not the first person to think of Gu Chang-soo as my contact point, but her eyes were already looking at me, not Gu Chang-soo.

Since I didn’t see him possessed like I did with Seo Beom-jin and his group earlier, it means that I had another opportunity to be sure of my relationship with him.

‘really… ‘You talked to your father?’

-If that is true… Does this mean the general is alive?

That’s how Gu Chang-soo understood Cha Yu-ra’s words.

At first glance, it may sound like your father is alive.

Likewise, this was what she, who was believed to be dead, said as soon as she suddenly returned.

In fact, members of the surrounding investigation team also began muttering similar stories.

Of course, that was my wish as well, but I did not give in to vain hope.

They (even the people who were always on the 8th floor) had guessed the circumstances of my father’s death from the beginning, but I felt his absence directly.

Also, because everything that was yours was taken over.

This is how I interpreted Cha Yu-ra’s words.

Perhaps, right after my father arranged the transfer of knowledge, another fragment of the memory that remained in me may have been passed on to her.

Gu Chang-soo moved his body and whispered a coordinate in Cha Yu-ra’s ear.

Cha Yu-ra looked into Gu Chang-soo’s eyes for a moment without saying anything about the coordinates.

“… are you okay?”

Then, out of the blue, he asked me how I was doing.

Gu Chang-soo was embarrassed and responded reflexively.

“yes? Oh, I’m fine, it’s okay… .”

“… … .”

Eat.

He must have been asking me.

-Is that what you said to Seongjun? What do you say?

Gu Chang-soo noticed it too late and asked, but he didn’t bother to borrow his mouth.

Anyway, I probably didn’t say it to get an answer.

As expected, Cha Yu-ra soon turned around.

“Sister—!”

Song Yeon-hee ran up to her and hugged her as if she had been waiting.

Naturally, Gu Chang-soo’s eyes met Song Yeon-hee’s face draped over Cha Yu-ra’s shoulder.

It was a distorted face covered in joy and relief, tears and snot.

“Huh!”

I saw my image superimposed on Song Yeon-hee’s face, sobbing like a child.

Then, as the image of my father’s back began to come to mind, I cut off the connection with Gu Chang-soo.

***

-You can’t stop a crazy adult dog! growl! growl!

“!”

I was really surprised.

Because I had just come to visit Yushin to tell him that I would be visiting Earth for a while.

Why is that sick singing voice resounding in the Emperor’s Great Hall?

Inside Daejeon, the curtains were drawn darkly.

Yushin was sitting in the imperial palace watching the news on a large screen projected on the wall.

“… … .”

Yushin said while looking at the beam projector and the remote control in his hand.

“ah. “It’s not easy to let go of familiar things.”

“no… , How is this possible?”

Beam projector in a medieval imperial palace?

You can also bring more.

But it was impossible to receive news from Earth.

If that were possible with technology, communication between the dungeon and outside the dungeon would have been possible long ago.

Yushin said with a grin.

“It is not difficult for the emperor.”

“So how?”

“The video recorded at the base beyond the dimension is transmitted and received back from Rak Vishia to the crystal sphere. So to speak, it is a ‘green room’. Still, the delay with the Earth was reduced to below 30 seconds.”

“… … .”

After listening to it, it was clear that it didn’t require any great skills.

But in reality, this was possible during the imperial period… .

While Yushin was explaining, he flipped through the channels, and it wasn’t just one or two, but channels from almost all major countries were being shown.

The technology to capture and transmit images and sounds to crystals in the form of magical energy was achieved through the efforts of high-ranking wizards here as well.

This means that for the sake of just one viewer, magicians with at least three digits of membership were turned into ‘broadcasting station brats.’

Also, if it is operated 24 hours a day, additional personnel will be needed for the second and third shifts.

“Crazy guy… .”

I muttered that and turned my head to the Korean news channel where Yushin had stopped holding the remote control.

-This time, we will connect the United States. Reporter Taeyoung Jeong in Washington?

At the bottom of the screen, a small window was displayed that projected the Tower of Desire in real time, and the anchor on the main screen connected correspondents from various countries and reported each country’s interpretation of the incident.

Almost 12 hours had passed since I left the tower, but it seemed like the citizens who had been trapped in the tower were finally being identified.

Just as it was confirmed by Gu Chang-soo a little while ago that the investigation team was still near the tower, it seems that all the people who escaped from the tower were being detained for investigation.

I didn’t initially recognize the phenomenon that happened to the tower as a big deal, but as I belatedly realized the scale of hunters from each country who ‘nearly suffered damage’, I felt like I came up with the interpretation that it almost became a disaster.

Anyway, to sum up what the news covered, in the end – it was an embarrassing praise that said I had once again saved the world and tens of millions of hunters.

That’s probably why the song from ‘Mad Dog Adult’ was broadcast earlier.

“… “I stood before the Emperor of Earth.”

Yushin murmured as if telling me to listen.

“… … .”

right. Just teasing.

But I didn’t react.

This is because a subtitle was just posted as breaking news that Seo Beom-jin, the leader of the unauthorized PHC Tersus, is wanted.

Even if it wasn’t necessarily a conflict with the investigation team, there was a conflict as they entered the tower, so I expected it to happen.

However, I hoped that I would not commit another crime during my escape.

***

The coordinates given to Cha Yu-ra were those of the Lac Vicia base in Colombia.

I had no intention of meeting any Earthlings who knew me right now, so this was the only appropriate place.

I crossed the dimensional door first and waited for Cha Yu-ra.

No matter how capable Cha Yu-ra is, there is no way the Lac Vishia Army would allow her, a civilian, to use the safe coordinates without a word.

I didn’t have to wait long before Count Baldnan’s lieutenant came to see me and told me the news.

“I have approved the request for coordinates from the person you mentioned, Yura-Cha.”

I immediately got up from my seat and headed towards the safe coordinates.

When we arrived, Cha Yu-ra was already walking out.

“You came so quickly?”

Since there is no portal readily available in Korea, I expected it would take at least the time of flying to Japan.

“We also created a portal in the basement of JSO. “Thanks to you, the amount of money I earned was astronomical.”

In Korea, it was still illegal for private companies or individuals to own portals, but even so, wouldn’t it be no different from torture for people with money and the skills to create one?

“okay. Tell them to fuck the law. “It’s a large JSO, so it only makes sense to have at least one portal.”

He smiled and joked, but Cha Yu-ra got straight to the point without changing his expression.

“The general has passed away.”

“… … .”

A word that eliminates any misunderstandings you might have from the beginning. Of course, it’s just her personality to convey straight facts.

I didn’t expect my father to be alive, so I stayed silent and waited for Cha Yu-ra’s next words.

“But I don’t know how conversation was possible.”

“for a moment. Definitely a conversation… Was it?”

Cha Yu-ra nodded.

I was shocked.

What I expected was my father’s thoughts and fragments of knowledge that were missing from the transfer.

“I asked and the general answered, so at least it wasn’t a one-sided hallucination. “I was in the midst of experiencing the unity of the spirit and spirit, and I definitely felt his presence.”

‘Everything in the body… !’

This may be the reason why she was able to survive, even though Kwon Ha-seon was unable to protect her.

And one thing I overlooked for a moment.

The moment Cha Yu-ra was caught up in was not a fight between her father and Kang Seon-ho, but a conflict between me and Kang Seon-ho.

Since I was unconscious at some point, I did not see Cha Yu-ra in person, but it means that the timing was not right for my father’s thoughts to have passed in the first place.

“… “It must be my father’s spirit.”

As I muttered to myself, Cha Yu-ra agreed.

“Maybe. “I never believed in the souls of dead people until now, but thanks to you, I came to believe in it.”

Cha Yu-ra, who believes in the afterlife, definitely did not fit in.

I asked with a slight smile.

“What did you say?”

“He told me to continue following Seongjun’s path because it wasn’t over.”

“!”

The last voice that was repeated when absorbing my father’s energy.

Cha Yu-ra wasn’t the type of person to lie to me and act it out, but she just proved that everything she said was true.

“He said it was an attempt he had never thought of before. So your leaving is all a process.”

“… … .”

An attempt that has never been made.

procedure… .

To me, it was the sound of my mind collapsing.

Because it means that what I thought was correct.

My father withdrew his hand at the moment when he could have killed Kang Seon-ho.

In other words, you gave up living at the moment when you could have avoided dying.

A man who was a reader for a long time… , why on earth!

‘Fuck you! why! Are you just making decisions on your own without even discussing it?’

We said we would do everything together!

A junior that I recognized with all my heart!

And where has gone all the cruel conviction that led me to kill my son’s friend’s father without hesitation?

I shed tears because you were not there to hear this cry boiling inside.

“Oops!”

“Bwak.”

The adjutant and the soldier of Rak Vishia near me struggled and retreated.

A ferocious energy swirled within me,

Sticky demonic energy flowed out from the hole.

However, Cha Yu-ra just took a step back and Shinhyeong became blurred, and did not suffer or be surprised.

And calmly, he continued to speak.

“… Perhaps Nepas is the reason for countless failures. so.”

Cha Yu-ra’s calm voice calmed my emotions.

After taking a moment to catch her breath, she continued speaking.

“Now he said you should give it a try. It didn’t happen because you planned it. Something you did that didn’t work out. The things you believed you should lead… “Actually, Seongjun might be able to do better.”

“… … .”

My father’s words were no different from the positive thoughts I ultimately achieved on my own.

But that is literally just a positive thought.

Plan B because A doesn’t work.

Nothing could compare to being together.

No matter what I thought, Cha Yu-ra continued to share her father’s thoughts.

“… “You might think I passed it on to you.”

At some point, she changed her tone of voice as if her father was speaking directly.

“I wanted to do it with you too.”

“!”

As if he were reading my thoughts right now.

“But it wasn’t easy. “Even though I made up my mind like that, in the end, I wasn’t moving as I thought and as I believed.”

“… … .”

“Being a father… I’ve never done it properly before, so there’s no way I can do it well. So, I decided to entrust myself to you.”

It was clear that the appearance and voice were Cha Yu-ra’s, but I poured out what I had felt for my father on her.

“Say that!”

The only reason she had no expression was because she resembled my father.

“Perhaps the things that are inside you right now are things that we, father and son, cannot convey even if we talk for the rest of our lives.”

“… “Transition was possible even without death.”

“But the situation was not favorable. “The moment I had to choose was the moment I had to kill your friend to survive.”

“… … .”

“I believe in you. “So much so that I don’t have to worry about this moment at all.”

I was speechless.
