There Is No Salvation for Extras - There Is No Salvation for Extras chapter 43

43 – Life doesn’t go as you want

This is a dream. Or that statement is a lie.

Hyunwoo shook his head, denying reality, then glared at the man sitting in front of him drinking and opened his mouth.

“…Really?”

“When have you ever seen me lie?”

“That can’t be possible.”

There’s no way I’m lying. He cursed under his breath and made a groaning sound, then took a deep breath, hit the desk with his prosthetic hand, and shouted.

“No, why did Jihyun suddenly?!”

“Hmm? Didn’t she know?”

“How do I know that? “From the beginning, all we knew was that that damn villain was performing while hiding his identity!”

“Isn’t it always you who comes asking for information that even we don’t know? “It’s natural that we don’t know what you don’t know.”

“Okay…”

There is nothing to say because everything is true. Hyunwoo sighed as he scratched his head, and soon he began to reflect on the story of the game, which should proceed as it should.

Performance by vocalist Jo Yu-mi. This was merely a prologue to the ninth chapter of the game’s story.

Last Hope. A company named Last Hope contacts genius vocalist Jo Yu-mi and Villain Silence to host a performance, and there is a chance to see it with the chairman’s eldest daughter and successor, Kim Ye-na.

When Han-gyeol, who has always been a fan, begs Yena for a favor, she realizes that she has a chance to be alone with him and pulls him in, but due to interference from other heroines, they all end up watching the show together, and after that, they stop watching the performance. The prologue begins with talking to her while looking at her.

There was no battle in the prologue, and the main characters just watched the performance with deep emotion. It was just a simple story hinting at Silence appearing as a boss towards the end of the chapter – at least in the game’s story.

“I was already having a headache because the evil brigade suddenly moved…”

“You’ve had a lot of trouble.”

“Why don’t you talk about it like it’s someone else’s business? “You’re the one who’s having a hard time anyway?”

“What can I do? “I just gave up.”

This means that it is absolutely not the time for the evil brigade to move as a group at this early hour and for their leader and Silence to contact each other and carry out work. What’s more, Jihyun, who obviously shouldn’t have participated in the story, joined? This is nonsense.

Something was tightly twisted. Hyunwoo sighed and thought carefully about what that something was, but eventually gave up, held his head, and laid his forehead on the desk.

“It would be a little better if I knew what he was thinking about…”

Yes. The story may change a bit. In the first place, there was no way for foreign substances called Repentance to exist in the game, and the protagonist’s allies or enemies would not gather in one place to hinder or help them.

There were many cases where people who should have died in the first place were still alive, or people who should not have appeared had already appeared, so this can be said to be within the range of prediction.

Nevertheless, the reason he is doubting right now is probably due to a strange sense of anxiety.

“What does that mean?”

“It’s so suspicious. “That heavy-assed person is suddenly wandering around here and there, leaving behind traces.”

It was confirmed that the movements of the evil brigade in Incheon were unusual, and Jo Yu-mi, who was obviously still overseas, returned to Korea and performed her surprise performance, and people suddenly went missing during that time.

If others see it, they might think it was a coincidence, or they might mistakenly think he was targeting her – but when he matches the story he knows with the information the man sought, the fact that the evil brigade is at work emerges. .

“It seems like they don’t even think that we are capable.”

“On the contrary, it is the opposite. “It’s a case where competence becomes poison.”

“…What does that mean?”

“Because you were so talented, you left traces so subtle that you could barely find them.”

This is something that cannot be figured out except by them. In the first place, you have to know that Jo Yu-mi is her villain Silence to be suspicious, and you have to be competent enough to find out that the head of her evil brigade was in contact with her to be sure.

However, the leader of the evil brigade who appeared in the last chapter appeared again this time. His appearance back then was questionable, but it’s also strange that he’s suddenly become so active now – and that he’s so sloppy that even traces of him can be found?

It is even more strange that they left it in such a way that only very competent people can find it, so that neither dogs nor cows can know it. It makes no sense that a person who has been able to hide his identity perfectly until now would leave even the slightest trace.

“It’s as if they made it so that we can find out their traces?”

“The exact thing is that it was left for only us to know. Of course, it will depend on how capable the other guys are.”

Considering all conditions, speculation regarding this trace can be divided into two. The former said that what he was now suspicious of was an unnecessary worry, and in fact, because they were competent, they found traces that should have been completely erased –

“A trap?”

“That is highly likely.”

The latter set a trap to lure us in.

“If it’s the latter, are you planning to cancel the plan like this?”

“It’s more likely, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do anything, right?”

“I guess that’s the case.”

Even if you plan on dragging them in and screwing them over, you have no choice but to go. If you just ignore it because you think nothing will happen and all the people there die, the hero side will be ruined.

If his friends die, the heroes will lose important power, and furthermore, the heroes without a main character will be exterminated. If that happens, repentance will be over. The reason the evil brigade can’t run wild now is because there are capable heroes.

“I should at least check for myself what they are doing – is there any better way?”

“Is it possible? “The only way is to hit it with your body.”

Hyeonwoo laughed bitterly at the man’s words.

“Then how do we infiltrate those who haven’t been revealed yet?”

“The kids are not in the hideout right now.”

“Oh my, is this a vacation?”

“Vacation is a mess. They said they left a text message and went out to play. Besides, even if they were there, there was no way to get in. This is a performance hosted by Last Hope and supported by the government, so how can you fake this and get in? Even if you hide your identity and infiltrate, you will be caught right away and kicked out.”

If all goes according to plan, there is still one more month left until the ninth chapter begins, so do you know the feeling of seeing a text message saying you are going on a trip just as you were about to get ready? A man will probably never know that feeling.

Hyeonwoo gritted his teeth and raised his head, thinking about taking away their entire vacation.

“Aren’t there any zeros left? Then, for the purpose of preventing terrorism-“

“Zero must never step forward.”

“…Why?”

“Because there is a chance that he checked zero last time.”

“Didn’t you say that you ran away while dealing with Judgment at that time?”

“Even so, we can’t ignore it.”

The man looks at him with a face that says he doesn’t understand, but Hyunwoo just frowns and continues to deny it.

I can understand the male mind. I don’t understand why he continues to hesitate even though he has useful information and the ability to use it at the right time.

“He is the head of the evil brigade. He’s the world’s worst villain. “The moment he thinks he’s like other guys, he’s playing.”

“Umm… That’s true, but.”

“Besides, I may be overreacting – but you have to knock on the stone bridge before crossing it. “Especially in a situation like ours where it ends the moment we are caught.”

However, Hyunwoo, who already knew a certain amount about the leader of the evil brigade from the knowledge in the game, had no choice but to be careful. The moment he takes interest in them and tries to uproot them, the work he has to do in the future will be five times more difficult than the work he has done so far.

“Well, I guess that’s the case if you are. “He didn’t always make wrong decisions.”

When the man expressed his strong opinion, he gave up his opinion, and Hyunwoo relaxed his expression and nodded, but-

“So what are we going to do now?”

“f*ck.”

Faced with the cold reality before his eyes, he slammed his head on his desk again and swore.

Zero is out of the question. Others say they are coming now, but there is no way to utilize them, and the plan he has been thinking about for a long time requires time, so he cannot proceed right now.

A situation with no answer. What should I really do now? While he was moaning like that.

“-Boss!”

“Are you here?”

The door to the conference room suddenly opened, and those who had gone on a trip entered.

“Why have you come now… You bastards…”

“Are you saying we were surprised by the sudden call? Still, it arrived as quickly as possible. Now, you brought a travel gift here too?”

The situation is like this, so what is the gift? Hyunwoo got up from his seat with the intention of grabbing Eunji by the collar as she was laughing, but-

“…What is this?”

“What is it?”

I froze when I saw the cell phone she handed me and the ticket on the screen.

“This is a ticket that that person obtained by manipulating probability.”

When Eun-ji pointed to Sang-hoon behind him, he scratched the back of his head and smiled brightly, and Hyun-woo smiled brightly along with him.

“Can you take a look at this?”

“I’ll take care of you.”

“What about me?”

“Do you want to go behind?”

“Why! “It’s my idea!”

“I have to give up the rest of my vacation. “You b*tch.”

Did you say that even if the sky falls, there is still a hole to rise up from? Hyunwoo was truly relieved as he recalled one of the plans he had erased from his mind.
