I’m in trouble because I accidentally took away the protagonist’s
awakening event. Episode 309

Side story 06. The hero longs for a happy ending (2)
My heart sank when I saw Gayoung sighing with a dark face.

Recently she has been reluctant to go over to the other world.

I heard that something happened the last time you went there.

So I was sad that I had to stay here for a while until people’s interest faded away.

‘Is it really better for Gayoung to be with her family?’

I stood tall in front of the terrace and looked at Gayoung’s side profile.

It seemed as if a deep emotion that could not be hidden was surging from the eyes sunken under the long eyelashes.

‘What if… what if… what if Gayoung decides to live in the other world? What if she comes here every month? And then eventually… what if she never comes back?’

My heart ached just thinking about it.

It was dizzying, as if the ground beneath my feet was crumbling and I was falling endlessly into the deep ground.

The reason was that he clenched his fist tightly.

‘That won’t do.’

I wish you were still by my side.

No. I wish I had never gone to that world.

“ha…….”

The reason was that he let out a heavy sigh without realizing it.

It was an extremely selfish thought.

He himself is living happily with his family who have regained their former appearance.

Actually, Gayoung wants to be separated from her family.

“Huh? Mr. Yuha?”

Gayoung raised her head and asked, as if she heard a sigh.

A faint smile hung on her lips, as if the worried expression she had seen a moment ago had been an illusion.

My chest started to hurt and ache.

I think it would be better if you could tell me honestly.

Then… … Then I will cling to you and ask you not to leave me.

But I’m afraid that even that will be rejected.

The reason was obvious, he said with a smile.

“The CEO has received an urgent request.”

* * *
A week after receiving an urgent request.

We arrived at Daejeon Colony with Ms. Lee Yu-ha.

A tall building.

Cars busily passing on the road.

The streets that had been destroyed by Dr. Lee Byeong-gon’s terror and Shin Seung-hyun’s reckless driving were neatly restored as if nothing had happened.

The people who had run away screaming that day were now walking down the street smiling.

“It seems like a lot has changed.”

“That’s right. The atmosphere has changed quite a bit.”

Gayoung said that and looked out the window.

As much as I remember the Daejeon Colony during the time when Shin Seung-hyun was president, I felt amazed at its current changed appearance.

Then she saw a banner with a sharp-faced man printed on it and snickered.

“It seems like Mr. Kim Beom is running the colony well.”

Beyond the windshield, a large courtyard and a large mansion were visible. It was the government building of the newly built Daejeon Colony after the terrorist attack.

I parked my car in front of an entrance where the barrier was closed.

“How did you come here?”

The soldier who was conducting the inspection came to the window and asked.

He showed the official document he received from Lee Yu-ha as a hologram to Son Woo-jin.

“I was dispatched from Seoul at the request of President Kim Beom.”

“Urgent request… Request… Loan of an S-class Awakened Person….”

The soldier who was reading the document fumbled around and looked at Gayoung with his eyes wide open.

He muttered in a trembling voice.

“Then, that person is an S-class Awakener…….”

“hello.”

When the soldier’s gaze met, Gayoung smiled slightly and waved her hand, perhaps feeling embarrassed to stay still.

Then, as if he had suddenly come to his senses, the soldier saluted with a determined gesture.

“Loyalty! Your identity and details have been confirmed! You may come inside!”

He drove inside, leaving the stiff soldier behind.

However, that wasn’t all for the entry procedure. The two had to go through similar things several more times before they could finally arrive at the presidential office where Kim Beom was waiting.

dripping.

A grim-looking man who appeared to be a bodyguard knocked on the door.

Soon the answer came back from inside.

“What’s going on?”

“Your Excellency, Mr. President. An S-class Awakener and his companion have arrived from New Seoul.”

“S-class Awakened? Let them come in.”

“All right.”

The bodyguard opened the door politely and stepped aside.

“Welcome. It’s been a while.”

As the two entered the President’s office, Kim Beom, who was standing in front of a large window with a clear view of the street, welcomed them.

Perhaps because there was a smile on his lips, his impression seemed very different from before.

However, perhaps because of his well-trained body, the neatly dressed suit looked awkward, as if he had been forced into it.

“It’s been a while.”

“Your eyes have become brighter.”

As the two people greeted each other, Kim Beom raised the corners of his mouth.

“Are you the only one who’s going to do it? You said you’ve become an S-class Awakener.”

“Well, it just so happened.”

“If anyone could become an Awakener, S-class Awakeners wouldn’t be so rare as they are now.”

Gayoung looked embarrassed and averted her gaze.

Kim Beom, who saw that, laughed loudly, then approached Lee Yu-ha and lightly patted her shoulder.

“And you’ve grown quite quickly, haven’t you? You’re already an A-class? It’s only been two years.”

“My partner grew so quickly that I was trying not to fall behind, and that’s how it ended up happening.”

“Yeah. That’s true. Hahaha.”

As we talked, I felt like a lot had really changed.

The sharp, sharp aura that had been honed like a knife disappeared and was replaced by a warm, relaxed feeling.

“I would rather hear information about this urgent request.”

“It’s been a while since we last met and we’re already talking about work?”

“It’s important to prepare for catastrophic monsters.”

Kim Beom scratched his cheek with an embarrassed face at Gayoung’s words.

“Ahhh…… It was time to legally get away from paperwork…….”

“Paperwork?”

“Yes. Since becoming president, there has been an endless stream of documents to sign. I liked being on the scene better.”

Maybe it was because he had been working in the field for a long time, but he seemed to find paperwork a headache.

It seemed like he wanted to use us as an excuse to get some more rest.

But Gayoung said with a firm attitude.

“Okay, so tell me about the catastrophic monster. We’ve been driving here for a week and want to get some rest quickly.”

“What’s so hard about a high-ranking Awakened person coming by car…….”

Kim Beom, who had been grumbling, snapped his fingers as if he had given up.

The surroundings darkened and a large hologram appeared in the middle of the room.

It was a blurry, out-of-focus image of a giant black bird, Kim Beom said.

“Then I’ll explain. It was first discovered about a month ago. While we were investigating the colony’s expansion…….”

* * *
After finishing the briefing on the request, Kim Beom offered to provide a room for two people to stay in the government building.

Of course, the two firmly declined and went to a hotel in the central area to rent a room.

Stay in the government building.

Just thinking about it made me feel suffocated.

Since it was the place where the president resided, security was tight and entry procedures were strict, so it was definitely not a place where one could rest comfortably.

“Phew…….”

I let out a short sigh as I walked down the street.

White steam rose in clumps.

After having dinner with Gayoung, I came out to get some fresh air by myself for a while.

‘Wouldn’t it be happier for Gayoung to return to that world?’

There were no monsters in the world that Gayoung lived in.

There, she said, she was an ordinary college student. She was going back and forth between school and home, worrying about her future after graduation. She was an ordinary student who had nothing to do with monsters or fighting.

She, who used to be like that, was here, taking on a commission to hunt monsters.

I heard that it was very difficult to adapt at first.

He said that just seeing others get hurt made him flinch, and seeing monsters bleeding made his heart suffocate.

On nights when I hunted monsters, I was often plagued by terrifying nightmares.

‘More than anything, in that world, Gayoung’s family… has a home to return to.’

Ms. Gayoung was caught up in the affairs of this world.

She had no duty or responsibility to protect the people of this world.

Rather, even with all the things I’ve done so far, I still have a lot of change left.

‘Of course I don’t want Gayoung to go back to that world. But if I really think about her happiness… … .’

The reason was that he bit his lip without realizing it.

My chest felt suffocated, as if it were blocked by something. It was like being trapped in a labyrinth.

Nothing has been decided yet.

I didn’t hear Gayoung’s true feelings directly.

But similar thoughts kept popping into my head and then disappearing.

“ha…….”

Yuhan let out a heavy sigh.

Just then a strong wind blew.

The cold winter wind blew through the loosely placed jacket.

It was a moment when I was trying to adjust my clothes while turning my back to the wind to avoid the cold.

Beyond the glass wall, I could see a display case lined with jewelry such as rings, necklaces, and earrings.

My eyes were drawn to the holographic advertisement displayed between the display stands.

In the hologram, a man was putting a ring on a woman’s hand. The woman smiled brightly, holding the hand with the ring on it carefully.

It was a common commercial, but for some reason I couldn’t stop watching it.

“excuse me…….”

As I was standing still and staring blankly at the hologram, someone spoke to me cautiously.

When I turned my head, I saw a woman wearing a neat suit.

The name tag on his chest suggested that he was an employee of the store he had stopped at.

The woman said with a kind smile.

“If you’re interested, why don’t you come in and take a look?”
