The Kids I Saved Are Too Strong - Chapter 183



183 – Possibility of Awakening

I thought I had given up on becoming stronger, but when I heard from Hwaryeoni, the most trustworthy person in the world, that there was a way, my heart started beating without realizing it.

Is there a chance for me, who was born as a non-awakened person and couldn’t grow further due to limitations?

can i get stronger?

Is it possible to become a person who fights with children and sometimes even protects them instead of being protected by them?

Hwaryeon flinched and averted my gaze, probably reading the strong desire in my eyes.

‘Why avoid looking away?’

you are the devil

No matter how ferocious I look, they just look at me saying I’m cute, but they never feel afraid of me.

Why are you averting your gaze?

At the same time as that thought, another thought ran through my head.

Even Hwaryeon avoids my eyes when she feels sorry.

It is true that I show a weak side when I think that I have committed a proper sin against me.

‘What are you sorry about?’

Hwaryeon probably wouldn’t have lied to me…

‘Can’t I be as strong as I thought?’

There is no way that Hwaryeon could not have noticed the intense longing in my eyes.

But what if Hwaryeon knows that I’m not going to be as strong as I aspire to be?

I was sorry enough that it gave me a reason to look away.

A strange thought came to my mind, and I thought that the fact that I was staring at her was a problem in itself, so I closed my eyes.

“Sorry, I was too excited.”

“No, ahahahaha. It’s because I didn’t know how much ahae aspires to be strong…”

A thin silence passed between us.

If it were just the two of us in this space, an infinite stillness might have continued to fill between the two of us, but fortunately we weren’t alone here.

The children’s cheers and Sahyun’s screams broke the silence.

“It’s my fault for expecting it on my own… So how strong can I be?”

“Nothing has been confirmed, and our Protestant Church is still estimating.”

“How do you become stronger?”

“It’s an artificial awakening.”

Artificial Awakening… That’s a name I miss.

Because it was the name of an experiment I received with Hwaryeon when I was young.

“Is there a way to awaken artificially? If that was the case, wouldn’t I have already awakened?”

“There is a method that is completely different from the method so far. When I asked the boss monster of the Climbing Gate about the nature of mana, a very small clue was opened. More research is needed right now, but it is said that artificial awakening is possible within the Heavenly Demon Church. I’m almost certain.”

“The time will come when all dogs and cattle become awakened.”

Hwaryeon shook her head resolutely.

“That’s not going to happen. Even if artificial awakening is possible, the resources used for it are expected to be enormous. No matter how rich you are, there are so many materials that it’s hard to collect them all, and those many materials are used to awaken a person. It takes so many ingredients to become an act that harms humanity as a whole.”

“What is it? I couldn’t do it anyway.”

“Why can’t you?”

“They say it takes a lot of resources. It’s a technology that only exists nominally and will never be used.”

Hwaryeon laughed lightly.

“Ahahahaha. Have you forgotten who I am?”

“You are the Heavenly Demon.”

“Yes, this body is worth a thousand. Do you think the strongest woman in the world cannot find that much material for her man? Because there is.”

“No matter how much it is, it’s a bit uncomfortable to use so many resources to the detriment of mankind…”

“The material for one S-class monster is only used up. Since a lot of by-products come out of that one monster, I just used the sentence ‘loss’ from the standpoint of mankind, but it’s not that much.”

“Then why did you look so sorry earlier?”

Even if it is an impossible skill yet, if it is a skill that is sufficiently possible later on and Hwaryeoni can apply that skill to me with Hwaryeoni’s power, there is no reason for Hwaryeoni to look apologetic towards me.

You should have put on a very confident face.

“That’s because it’s not possible right away. And the degree of awakening with artificial awakening right away is only F-class. It’s not enough to get the strength Ahae wants.”

“It’s okay because you can start at F rank and go up.”

The awakening of non-awakened people is something that must be left to the heavens, but the promotion of awakened people is covered by effort.

In particular, I’ve heard statistics that say you can rise from F to D within a few years if you put in the effort, so there’s no need to feel bad about awakening to F.

– Keum Keum, Master

Liu Ying snorted inappropriately and clung to Hualien.

-I think I just heard about awakening.

Liu Ying’s eyes were shining so bright that Liu Ying seemed to be very interested in awakening.

‘Well, in a way, the awakening must be much worse than I am.’

I know very little about Liu Ying.

It’s Hyeon-soo who usually talks to Liu-ying, and when Hyeon-su and Liu-ying are spending time alone, their consciousness is completely turned off.

‘My sister says it’s okay not to wake up every day, but Tina says she really wants to wake up when she sees her eyes.’

‘It’s worth it, he hasn’t even awakened, but he’s a strong man who can easily beat a B-class monster. I’ll always have a longing for a stronger power.’

‘There’s that, too, but it’s not a day or two that he laments that he seems to be too inferior to the Sword Demon and the Demon Demon who entered as disciples of the Heavenly Demon at the same time.”

“Liu Ying, you will definitely awaken him. If awakening Ahai is a matter of my private feelings, then awakening you is a public matter. It’s business.”

-Thank you, Master!!

Liu Ying shouted and hugged Hualien tightly.

In the distance, the children are asking Master, what are you doing? He seemed to be looking at Liu Ying with a smile on his face, but Liu Ying didn’t pay attention to the children and was just hugged by Hualien.

“Instead, you will have to work that much to make up for it. Awakening Ahai is something that happens by my order, so no one can comment on it, but since Liu Ying’s awakening is a fund used for the Heavenly Demon Cult, it is worthy of the funds. I have to work and gain recognition from others in the Heavenly Demon Church.”

– I see, Master!

“But when will we be able to do that artificial awakening?”

“I don’t know either. The kids say that clinical trials can be done in a month at the earliest, but since this is an area that hasn’t been researched yet, it’s impossible to believe everything they say. My personal estimate is that it will take three months or even years at the earliest. .”

“It’s not very far.”

Should the form be lowered or restored in preparation for that time?

I haven’t been fighting at all lately, so I think my skills have definitely deteriorated compared to before…

“I wonder what abilities Ahae will awaken when he awakens.”

“What kind of ability… wouldn’t it just go in the direction of reflexes or quickness?”

Because that was the ability he gained from the weak mana he developed while undergoing an artificial awakening experiment when he was young.

“I can’t be sure of that. Originally, the uniqueness of an individual sperm is usually established only when he is a D-class, but Ahae is not yet an F-class Awakener, but does it have an ability? Will it exist? Or will the ability be maintained? If the ability is maintained, numerous questions will follow about whether it can be classified as an F-class Awakener because of the low mana.”

“It hurts me so much to hear that…”

“Do you know? I wonder if he will become a person who has awakened two abilities.”

“Doesn’t that sound like a really crazy assumption?”

How can a person have two awakening abilities?

Everyone has only one awakening ability.

As the level goes up, the range in which the ability can be applied widens, so it seems like there are multiple abilities, but fundamentally, only one ability can be awakened.

Wol-ha is neutralized, and Ha-yeon is also a cut. I apply it and use it in various ways, but there is only one fundamental awakening ability.

“In case you don’t know. If Ahae has two abilities when awakened, it might be worth experimenting with awakening other motives.”

Motivation… awakening…

I’m forgetting something…

“Now that I think about it. Isn’t Lee Soo-ah just that case? She naturally awakened while being experimented on.”

As soon as I mentioned Sooah Lee, Hwaryeoni’s expression hardened.
