The Kids I Saved Are Too Strong - Chapter 164
164 – non-closing gate-2
Ha-yeon did not return home all night.
Even when everyone went to bed, only the younger sister sat on the sofa and waited, but even though Ha-yeon said that she wouldn’t come back today, she said she wanted to hear from her as soon as her sister arrived, sitting on the sofa and staring blankly into space.
“Are you counting?”
“Oh, brother, are you awake?”
“Did you sleep at all?”
“No, it’s fine. Nothing happens if you don’t sleep for a day or so.”
“Your condition looks very serious.”
If it was simply not sleeping, it wouldn’t have been a big blow to an awakened person younger than him, but his face was quite emaciated, perhaps because he suffered a lot.
“When Ha-yeon comes, I’ll wake her up, so go and take a sigh. In that state, you probably won’t hear anything Ha-yeon says, right?”
“It’s okay. I’m fine.”
It seems that the mentality has completely gone out. I see you are replying…
“Go to sleep, I’ll wake you up. No matter how well you look, oppa is very worried? If you want to keep worrying about him, stay there, and if not, go to sleep.”
“… All right. You can go to bed.”
As soon as he got up from the sofa, he stumbled, so I helped him and put him in the bedroom.
“Whoa…”
It was early morning when the sun hadn’t risen yet.
‘It’s been a while since I woke up this early…’
Wolha, who slept next to me, had a hard time coming out without being noticed.
‘When are you coming?’
And what were you talking about?
A gate that does not close is obviously a big problem.
Maybe we need to completely change the way we treat gates.
‘I hope a good solution comes out…’
I drank green tea while waiting for morning to come.
Instead of replacing it with a similar monster, the unique scent of real green tea entered my mouth and nose.
As I drank tea like that, it was morning, and I fed Wol-ha, who had woken up early today.
Liu Ying wakes up the same way as usual, but Yeon-ha hasn’t woken up yet, probably because she had a hard time yesterday.
“I decided not to go to work today, driver.”
“Is it because of the gate?”
“Yes, it’s kind of an emergency.”
After two hours of sitting on the couch blankly like that, Ha-yeon finally appeared in front of us.
“Why are you doing that?”
Looking at his face or complexion, it didn’t seem that hard, but judging from the messy dressing and the faint smell of unwashed sweat, it must have been an all-night meeting.
“I’ve been waiting for you to come.”
“You want to hear about the gate?”
I nodded slightly and woke up the younger sister and brought her out.
“Is your sister coming?”
“Why is he in such a state?”
“Don’t say anything, you stayed up all night waiting for me. I got up early and put you in the room to take a nap, but it still doesn’t seem to be completely exhausted.”
“What were you talking about…”
The younger man stumbled and said.
“First of all, they say there’s never been a gate where monsters can’t come out of Sol. First of all, it seems like it only happened in our city, but seeing as the same thing happened in China, I can’t imagine it wouldn’t happen elsewhere.”
“I think so too.”
“So, first of all, we decided to set up our own exploration party. I will take part of the gate handling team and lead the expedition.”
“Are you unni?
“I’m going to leave the city safety to Wolha.”
Ha-yeon looked at Wol-ha.
“I’ll give you enough money. Just help me this time.”
“Okay. I’ll help you. It’s just enough to keep the city safe, right?”
“No, you stay still, because our guards will do everything. All you have to do is prevent a strange situation where a villain that the guards can’t handle runs amok or an S-class monster suddenly appears.”
“All right.”
“I have nothing to do?”
“You enter the gate with me. Intelligence-type abilities are rare, so you are a necessary talent.”
“Yes!”
“We’re not leaving right away, so get some sleep first. You look very anxious.”
First of all, after sitting the younger on the sofa, I laid it on its side and leaned its head on the armrest of the sofa.
“Can I go too?”
“Even my brother?”
As if I didn’t know I was going to say that, Ha-yeon put on a puzzled expression.
“There’s nothing impossible… but it’s a dangerous place where you don’t know what will happen. I don’t want to take my brother there.”
“Doesn’t that mean that if I die, everyone else will die too? I don’t want to lose you in vain?”
“Brother…”
“So take me with you. He’s not even C-class against humans, but if he’s a monster, he’ll definitely be able to show off his skills.”

No matter how strong a monster is, it can be sent away if you use a bullet for monsters of that grade.
It’s a problem to survive the monsters in the process, but… other awakened people will take care of that.
“Look objectively, am I good at the gate? Or not.”
“… It’s okay. My brother is enough to serve one person.”
“Then I can take you, right?”
“… Okay. Instead, you should put your brother’s safety first. Okay?”
“okay.”
– Can I go too?
“Liu Ying… No, he has great skills, but if he shows how strong he is without mana, it will have a huge impact on the guards.
-Huh…
Liu Ying bowed her head.
– Suhyun-ah.
“Why?”
-We have to protect our hyeonsu, if we ever die, we’ll rip our limbs off.
“Don’t worry, I’ll never die.”
Wasn’t it confirmed that it was a dangerous place in the first place? It’s just an unknown space.
“Then I’ll call the guards right away. If we prepare right now, we’ll be able to get into the sand tomorrow. With the help of younger people, we’ll be able to save some time, but…”
“With this state of mind, I’d be glad if I didn’t troll while helping you…”
“Call me!”
“You’re just growing up.”
Hayeon sighed lightly and looked at me.
“Then I’ll go to the gate management department. My brother is in disguise.”
“A disguise?”
“It’s the cleanest way to enter disguised as an ego cat. From the perspective of the gate management department, you’ll be much more familiar with the ecat who came to train than you as my brother as my older brother, who I don’t even know.”
“okay…”
When I went in front of Woha, Wolha shortened her height.
Wolha didn’t have the ability to reduce her height, but by disabling and activating the ability to shrink that remained in my body, I adjusted my height.
This cat was completed when he touched his head moderately and smiled brightly.
“Shall we go together?”
“No. Come tomorrow. The incident happened today, so it’s strange to come right away today.”
“…But why did you ask me to disguise myself now?”
“Because it’s cuter.”
Hayeon smiled and disappeared.
When he approached Wol-ha to ask for relief from his reduced physique, Wol-ha only shook his head while smiling sadly.

“hello!”
As I entered the meeting room of the gate management department, which was maintaining silence, I forcibly raised the tension and shouted.
“what…”
The gate management staff, who looked at me as if surprised by the sudden loud sound, looked at me and made a happy face.
“Who is this, isn’t Lee Go-yang, who just went back to solo after saying he came to training?”
“Long time no see!”
“I heard that a reinforcement was coming… was that you?”
“I don’t know anything else, but I’m confident in shooting! I’m a non-awakened person, but I’ll do my best to assist you!”
“Your morale goes up just by being there, so it’s okay.”
Jihyun Park looked at me and smiled.
“Didn’t Macheon-ah come?”
“He’s a much higher Awoken level than I am, so he’s doing more important things. He can’t get lost like I can and come to help.”
“It’s a pity, it would definitely make things easier if one more Class A Awakener joined… Ah, you know that doesn’t mean I hate you, right?”
“Of course I know.”
As it was the first gate to enter, I had to pack the most perfect elite skills.
It’s not a good idea to put in a lot.
However, if all the strongmen in the city entered, it was impossible to prepare for external dangers, so the current unit was a unit that was put together with great care.
‘The balance is fine.’
4 Class B Awakeners including Park Ji-hyun, 2 A Class Awakeners including Yeonha, and one Ha-yeon.
They were strong enough to easily break even the most S-class gates.
“Did you read all the instructions?”
“Yes, I understand everything.”
“That’s it.”
Park Ji-hyun smiled bravely.
As we were quiet, the conference room remained still, but that silence was broken when Ha Yeon-yi accompanied her younger sister into the conference room.
“Has everyone gathered?”
“Yes!”
Everyone answered loudly.
The atmosphere, which had been frozen in tension, felt like it was breaking.
