The Devil’s Dead Child - Chapter 308

#Episode 308, That Time

About 1 minute ago,

“If I don’t get treatment right away, I’ll have to live like that for the rest of my life!”

The time when Kwon Ha-seon was worried about Kang Seon-ho’s severed arm.

Cha Yu-ra came to one conclusion after looking at Kang Seon-ho’s unconscious mind as he changed his target.

‘General… He passed away.’

As the darkness cleared, a general disappeared without a trace… .

And Han Seong-jun suddenly lost consciousness.

If the two visible facts are causal, the only thing that comes to mind is the death of a general.

Since the five senses cannot function when unconscious, Kang Seon-ho’s targeting would be to follow the sixth sense.

Although Han Seongjun looks different now, it means that the target will not be identified by appearance anyway.

Kang Seon-ho does not remember Han Seong-jun.

I don’t even know who it is, so I can’t hold a grudge.

Therefore, the reason why Kang Seon-ho’s murderous intent shifted to Han Seong-jun was simply because he felt something from him that could not be mistaken (like General Han’s energy).

Shock,

sadness.

The pain of loss and denial of reality… .

Perhaps Han Seongjun is in that process.

Cha Yu-ra felt the blood vessels in the back of her neck tightening.

Although it was different from general empathy, she understood the pain Han Seong-jun was going through.

I took a deep and long breath.

“ha… .”

The blood circulated slowly and my hands and feet became cold. However, reason was sharpened more sharply.

Kang Seon-ho takes a step towards Han Seong-jun again.

“Fuck… .”

Ha-seon Kwon mutters lowly and blocks Kang Seon-ho once again.

‘… ‘I won’t be able to stop it.’

Cha Yu-ra predicted that Kwon Ha-seon would not be able to stop Kang Seon-ho in the end.

No, it would have to be that way.

Because Kwon Ha-seon won’t be able to attack Kang Seon-ho.

so… ,

‘In the end, I have to stop it.’

It was virtually impossible to stop Kang Seon-ho, who even Kwon Ha-seon could not, with a skill worse than his.

However, Cha Yu-ra had different resolve from Kwon Ha-seon.

I feel like there is nothing I can do even if Kang Seon-ho dies… .

You won’t be able to stop him without the will to die.

Of course, it was something she didn’t want to do, but for Cha Yu-ra, it was a matter of choice.

Who should we save at this moment?

Relationship with Kang Seon-ho, memories,

It didn’t matter what other classmates thought. … I put it aside.

Kang Seon-ho had already covered Kwon Ha-seon’s back, but in Cha Yu-ra’s field of vision, there were only Kang Seon-ho and her.

I saw all the techniques I could use and the results that would follow.

‘Is it possible… . It still looks like Izzy isn’t there.’

All of Cha Yu-ra’s simulations were unconventional and fatal.

However, the fundamental difference in rank was clear.

The success rate was by no means low, but in every case, she was not there at the end.

Cha Yu-ra risked her life.

Some people use anger as fuel to jump over walls, while for others, sadness causes them to become angry –

Intense emotions are also closely related to the use of magical power.

Perhaps it is because such emotions signify a situation in which each person encounters their own limitations, that is, a moment when the impossible becomes possible.

Humans are sometimes in desperate danger,

Or in a desperate moment,

And when there is no one to help,

Break your own limitations.

For some, it was just a form of determination.

Something clicked in Cha Yu-ra’s mind! And it collapsed.

‘ah… .’

I never expected that the state that had been so far away would come at this moment.

Naturally, Cha Yu-ra herself could not even recognize that the timing was not good.

Because a flood of heterogeneous sensations flooded through my body.

It was also accompanied by extreme pain.

“uh? Joe, George… !”

That’s why Song Yeon-hee’s voice,

I didn’t even hear Han Seongjun wake up.

Although Cha Yu-ra was not insensitive to pain, she only focused on controlling the changes that occurred in her body.

This is because you feel pressure as if the blood vessels in your entire body will burst if you touch them.

However, no matter what Cha Yu-ra’s inner state was like, the surrounding situation continued to be as tense as it was.

If nothing else had happened, the situation she was experiencing would have been easily noticeable to those around her.

But surprise and tension,

“really… “Is this Han Seongjun?”

“That one again… “Why is it like that?”

The classmates, who were preoccupied with the imminent situation and the huge demands of life, did not notice the change in Cha Yu-ra.

In the first place, all of this happened in a split second.

Crack, clap, clap!

Crack!

Kang Seon-ho and Han Seong-jun suddenly rush towards each other,

“Dodge, dodge!”

Kwon Ha-seon shouted urgently, but Cha Yu-ra could not hear anything.

Kwon Ha-seon, who had laid Park Tae-gwang at a distance at the speed of light, immediately turned around and poured all his strength into his shield.

Everyone had already evacuated that much, but my instinct was that it wouldn’t be enough.

A golden shield-shaped cluster of light, several meters wide and tall, bloomed around her.

And only then did Kwon Ha-seon discover Cha Yu-ra.

‘ah… !’

Of course, the woman who I thought would have avoided her stayed in her seat.

But it was too late to do anything.

Because what I saw was already a flash-like afterimage.

The black haze has already engulfed the blue light source, and a huge murderous figure has disappeared,

Cha Yu-ra’s shredded clothes were scattered in the strong shock wave.

Binge drinking followed.

Kwaaaaang!

Squeeze!

In the meantime, a flash of brain energy flashed, which may have been Cha Yu-ra’s last breath.

Ha-seon Kwon and everyone else lost their eyesight from that light.

“Sister—!”

Although my eyesight had not yet returned, I could hear Song Yeon-hee’s crying screams.

***

Again a few minutes ago.

The entire investigation team, led by Park Dae-geun and including Ma Dong-wook and Koo Chang-su, was passing through the 5th floor.

An expedition to solve a problem whose cause is unknown – the destination is also unclear, but Park Dae-geun set the direction downward.

First, people on the upper floors will also flock to the lower floors,

Because where people gather, information will gather.

It was also possible to secure additional low-level orders through hunting while moving.

Of course, they also had no choice but to experience the ‘tsunami’ created by Han Sang-cheol.

The space on the lower floor was so vast and it wasn’t near the entrance at the time, so we didn’t encounter it directly.

Therefore, Park Dae-geun and his group simply understood it to be a disaster related to the blockade of the tower.

anyway.

Park Dae-geun did not forget the original mission of the investigation team.

I’ve met a lot of people so far, including the 0414 group.

A little while ago, at the entrance to the 6th floor, I encountered 16 0414 guys.

They were suspiciously powerful (much more than expected), but

Fortunately, a huge number of ‘normal’ hunters were already gathered on the lower floor.

As you go down, the number of hunters whose original purpose was that floor increased, and because the spell books were so common in the first place, the number reached hundreds.

Group 0414, who was on the 6th floor, was immediately shot to death without even knowing what was going on as soon as they were pointed out by the investigation team.

Many ordinary hunters who recognized Park Dae-geun and various guild leaders participated in the ‘execution of official duties.’

After clearing the scene, I exchanged opinions about the tower blockade with the hunters who helped me and crossed the portal.

A similar thing happened when I got down to the 5th floor.

It wasn’t an expected development, but thanks to the crowd coming together in the face of crisis and Park Dae-geun’s popularity, the investigation team has yet to suffer any major losses.

The problem occurred when we were about halfway through the 5th floor in the reverse direction.

“Oops! Argh!”

Suddenly, Gu Chang-soo clutched his head and collapsed.

Since Koo Chang-soo was in the lead group, Park Dae-geun reflexively supported him.

“W-why suddenly… “No, are you okay?”

However, Gu Chang-soo shook off Park Dae-geun’s touch and screamed.

“Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

“… … !”

Then he rolled around on the floor and stopped abruptly, his body shaking.

It was a symptom of convulsions.

“Well, what is it? “Did this friend suffer from epilepsy?”

Surprised, Park Dae-geun looked around and asked, but it was still the case that no one knew anyone else’s medical history.

Among the group that was following, a member of the healing community jumped forward.

“I will take a look. Gu Chang-soo! “Can you hear me?”

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Chang-su rolled his eyes and even bit into foam.

“… … .”

There was no way I would get an answer, so I first cast heal and checked for any possible injuries.

But there was no relief.

No matter what the cause, usually the convulsions will stop, but Gu Chang-soo’s convulsions became worse.

The members of the healing group became more and more perplexed as they looked at Gu Chang-soo’s stiff, blue complexion.

“Hill isn’t listening! “It’s dangerous if we continue like this!”

“shit! First, I will check to see where it is blocked.”

Park Dae-geun, who had taken a step back, placed his palm on Gu Chang-soo’s chest.

“Fuck… .”

At that time, Ma Dong-wook suddenly cursed.

It was a situation where anyone could say something regretful now, but since it was CEO Ma who never cursed in public, all eyes were on him.

And Ma Dong-wook’s gaze was directed somewhere other than Gu Chang-soo.

Suspicious groups appeared one after another from the forest of trees ahead.

There are already close to twenty people… .

It was a place where people could meet as many people as they wanted, but the problem was that they could not be confirmed.

Gu Chang-soo, who had already looked over there with Ma Dong-wook, said, ‘They’re just hunters.’ Or, ‘Be careful. Because they should have said, ‘It’s those bastards.’

Of course, in a situation where it was not checked, it was impossible to attack first,

Therefore, it was impossible to relax until the identity of the opponent was properly identified or the enemy was able to move beyond the detection range without friction.

If they were here now as a single guild, they could have followed the conscience of the guild leader and tried the evil act of ‘attack first and then interrogate’.

This was impossible now that we had become each other’s watchdogs in the name of public affairs.

The investigation team members discussed the circumstances in which the patient occurred,

As the person who played the most important role was neutralized and an unidentified group approached, he started to panic.

Daegeun Park opened his mouth before the members became more agitated.

“Everyone acts naturally. Even if we can’t recognize them, they will recognize this guy. “Then they will react first anyway.”

“… … .”

The members responded by coming to their senses and gently opening their eyes.

Even then, the healing hunter was diligently trying to perform CPR on Gu Chang-soo.

Fortunately, Gu Chang-su survived.

“Kek! Phew—.”

“Whoa! “Soo, your breath is back!”

But now my breathing has returned,

It seemed difficult to come to his senses anytime soon.

Park Dae-geun and his party exchanged looks of relief for a moment and then looked ahead again.

It was a distance where I could hear their small whispers, but no sound was heard.

Even though they exchanged smiles and glances as if they were talking to each other about something.

‘… It’s getting more and more ominous.’

One characteristic of 0414 that Park Dae-geun personally felt was that they were much stronger than the prayers felt.

And one characteristic that Gu Chang-soo warned about was that they could communicate in a way similar to ‘telepathy’.

‘A total of twenty-six people… .’

I didn’t think that they would lose to 0414, but the investigation team would also suffer damage close to annihilation.

This is because not all members are like you.

Sigh.

Park Dae-geun, whose conviction grew stronger, took a step forward.

Of course, I had no intention of going first out of curiosity, but it suddenly occurred to me within 0414 that Gu Chang-soo might have been branded a traitor.

This was to prevent any sudden attack targeting Gu Chang-su.

at that time.

More people jumped out from behind the approaching group.

Sasak.

Susssseu.

Crack, clap, clap!

I could feel signs approaching in this direction from the forest on the left and right sides.

‘… What a disaster.’

A moment when I wondered if this was the reason for the leisureliness of the group approaching ahead.

The other person also seemed to be embarrassed and quickly turned around.

Sreung!

Slurp!

“… … !”

Suddenly!

And they clashed swords with each other.

Ma Dong-wook muttered as he looked at the man who appeared to be the leader of the additional group.

“Seo Beom-jin… . “I think they are our allies.”
