Return of the Frozen Player 571
white lies (1)
“haha.”
With blurred vision, Mio used the sword as a staff to maintain her balance.
It was because he had used up all his strength to cut down Valencia’s citrine.
‘You need to calm down… … I do.’
Apart from strong mental strength, the body that reached its limit slowly fell forward.
But what was waiting for her was her forearms, not the hard floor.
“..ah’?”
“great job.”
A familiar mask appears.
Seo Jun-ho carefully supported the youngest member of the party.
“Sleep well. When you wake up, you will be at the ice castle.”
“Every time… Thank you…
A warm and comfortable forearm that somehow reminds me of my mother’s arms.
Only then did Mio gladly accept the surging fatigue and close her eyes comfortably.
softly.
After placing the sleeping woman on his shoulder, Seo Jun-ho moved on and put the suit on the other shoulder.
“Is this a success?”
The light in his eyes looking down at the pitch-black sea was serene.
As Sungjuni said, precious
He succeeded in preventing the deaths of his friends.
‘I didn’t expect Isaac and Valencia to be here, but it turned out rather well.’
The reason why unexpected variables occurred was simple.
Because the demons of the world where Seongjuni lived died at his hands the moment he tried to corrupt Kim Woojung.
‘They said that Mio of that world fell into Millpage’s trap and was killed by the Ascendants.’
Minor variables occurred, but the current situation was not bad.
As a result, Gilberto and Mio were unharmed, and the two arms of the Heavenly Demon were cut off.
Seo Jun-ho smiled coldly.
“The Heavenly Demon.”
Only one person on all seven floors.
An evil that was once worshiped as a king by leading countless demons.
“Now you are the only one left.”
I suddenly became curious.
What kind of expression would the sky, left alone in the world, have by now?
The Heavenly Demon, who was walking down the street, stopped abruptly.
He quietly placed his hand near his heart.
“Did it break?”
The safety device he had carved into his heart, the ‘Equation of Death’, had been erased.
In other words, the connection with the user of the technique was cut off.
“Isaac.”
Upon recognizing his death, the Heavenly Demon’s eyes grew cold.
“This useless thing.”
If I had known he would die so easily, I would have cut off his limbs and locked him up somewhere.
If that was the case, he wouldn’t have lost his extra life in vain.
Even considering Isaac’s death, the situation in Valencia was understandable.
“Incompetent things.”
These are the things he said as if he would take care of himself for tens of thousands of years.
They are all things that he said he would follow to the end of the demon world he would unfold.
But dead. They couldn’t even keep my words to the end.
because they were weak
This is because they became prey rather than hunters.
“I am different.”
he is strong stronger in the future
will lose
No one will be able to sentence you to death.
The Heavenly Demon lightly closed her eyes.
Isaac Debord and Valencia Citrine.
The words that those presumptuous things said like a habit rang in my ears.
-Master, sometimes the more urgent you are, the more you need to know how to go back.
-There are too many enemies, so you will need to increase your allies.
weak and stupid things.
“… … You are wrong.”
This is the result of a slow return.
He was left alone, and the transcendental agent who tried to make him an ally did not even deal with him.
As the biggest proof, didn’t the people who spoke weak words die?
“A beast of prey does not train to prove its strength.”
just hunt
The Heavenly Demon slowly opened her eyes and took a bored step.
Every creature he encounters from now on is his prey.
*5k
Dalgrak, moongrak.
The morning sunlight filtering through the window illuminated my face, and the sound of clinking dishes resonated in my ears.
“Do you know how hard it was for me while you guys were gone?”
“If I hear that sound one more time, I will fill it 100 times.”
“Ha, I’ve only played 14 times yet, what are you talking about?”
“You took it out again without knowing it? Where is the problem really?”
“Oh my, a problem? Wouldn’t that only be for those who foolishly get caught by the enemy?”
Seo Jun-ho thought.
Why did he have to listen to the sound of those guys arguing as soon as he woke up early in the morning?
Seo Jun-ho, who raised his upper body, muttered as he scratched his back.
“You guys are noisy… …
“Oh, are you awake?”
“good morning~”
Not at all. Good morning.
Seo Jun-ho looked around his room with sleepy eyes.
Sure enough, his friends were eating breakfast, occupying his own table.
“Whoa.”
Seo Jun-ho let out a light sigh and lightly
I raised my hand.
“Gilbe, I’d like a cup of coffee too, please.”
“I will.”
The strong aroma of freshly brewed coffee stimulates the nose.
Seo Jun-ho, who walked over to the dining table with the blanket covered and sat down, spat out a voice.
“And why are you eating breakfast in someone else’s room when the owner of the room didn’t even allow it?”
“huh? Did you get permission?”
Skaya, who was munching on toast, pointed to one side with her fork.
When I looked away, Jun-shik, who was lying on the sofa, responded by flipping through the pages of a comic book.
“Oh, did I allow it?”
“and. You did… … But with what qualifications?”
“Qualification? deserve it.”
Junshik put down the book and put on a bitter expression.
“This is why trying to grow your body is useless. O..”
“Ah Okay. It’s okay, read a book
la.”
Sensing the inconvenience, Seo Jun-ho waved his hand.
‘It’s hard to treat something like before.’
It’s probably because I felt sorry for that guy.
It may not have been intentional, but he had been rolling for years while fulfilling his orders.
‘But that’s only until this week.’
The memories of the days he practiced hard were all absorbed into himself.
Doesn’t that mean that it’s no different from what you trained yourself for?
Thinking that Jun-shik would have a seizure if he heard it, Seo Jun-ho turned his head.
“Mio, how are you feeling?”
Mio quietly lowered her teacup and turned her head.
“Thanks to Junho, I’m a Hogu girl, and now I feel better than ever.”
“Hogu… … what?”
“It’s good to survive the near-death crisis
It means everything.”
“I’m glad then.”
As of today, it has been two days since we arrived at the ice castle.
All Seo Jun-ho did for the past two days was to sleep soundly. That was it.
“Rather, we were worried about Junho.”
“that’s right. After hearing the story, the other three people suffered, but you look the most tired?”
Seo Jun-ho smiled at Skaya’s worries.
“… … I know. You must be a little tired.”
How to say, it seemed like the longest 10 days in the world.
In fact, it wasn’t even that short of a day.
‘Rescue Ramadat, fight the Overmind army in the process, and go straight to the research center.’
There, the self of the parallel world.
I met Sungjoon.
‘I’ve been busy since then.’
After saving Gilberto, I moved to Mio before I had time to catch my breath.
“Whoa.”
Thinking back on the past 10 days, the fatigue came again.
Tak, Gilberto put the teacup down in front of him.
“Drinking will help you come to your senses.”
“thank you.”
Certainly, as soon as I sipped hot coffee, I immediately came to my senses.
Well well.
said Ramadat, stuffing ten slices of bacon into one bite.
“Oh, and they said there was a meeting in the afternoon.”
“meeting? what a meeting.”
“You are the actual leader of the current players. He said he wanted to discuss future plans.”
“It’s a plan… …
Not at all.
But before that, there were a few things to point out.
“How is the current rain?”
“The kid put it on the wall of your gymnasium.”
“Good job.”
third sanctuary.
That is, until the float power plant was destroyed, Wujungi’s identity could not be revealed.
‘Especially for Master Son Chae-won and the Chaste Moon Guild.’
I heard it from Sungjoon.
They said that they actually fell into a big panic when they learned the identity of the Sword Demon.
‘I’m sorry to them, but not right now.’
Now that one person’s power is precious
Their panic should not have happened.
The problem was that Wujungi had been missing for over ten days.
“Skaya, how is Master Son Chae-won’s movement?”
“I waited patiently for the first few days… … You seem a bit sensitive these days, don’t you?”
“I guess so.”
Because my best friend is missing.
After thinking for a while, Seo Jun-ho opened his mouth.
“What do you guys think? silence is better
ji. or not… …
“Wouldn’t it be better to tell a white lie?”
“okay.”
If I could reassure them, I could tell a lie a few times.
In fact, it was because he was well protected by Woojungi.
“But if you’re determined and deceitful, a few simple words won’t do it.”
“… … I guess so.”
Each member of the Chaste Moon Guild is a veteran.
It is said that if you lie vaguely, you may be caught.
“Then, Skaya, you take care of that part. can you?”
“Well, I’ll try to do something before the meeting.”
“thank you. And what is Kiora’s current condition?”
“I did get a report that I woke up this morning.”
“hmm.”
Trapped in the lower level of the bush castle, she dealt with the bush monster for several hours.
fell down
Fortunately, there was no damage to his life, but he had to rest for at least a week.
“The second thing to point out is… … It’s also Millpage’s problem.”
It was revealed that he was the infiltrator of Mine.
Perhaps, if the fact was disclosed at today’s meeting, the shock would spread.
Seo Jun-ho closed his eyes.
“… … I’m asking this for a while. I will inform only Shin Seong-hyeon and Son Chae-won, who are tracking the snitch.”
“Is that also to prevent players from panic?”
“that’s right.”
The final showdown is coming soon.
Because the Transcendental Emperor, who had taken two holy relics, wouldn’t sit still.
At that time, the most important thing was the unity of the players.
“Groups in which mutual trust is broken will never produce good synergy.”
The power of the Harlem Guild now occupies a weight that cannot be ignored.
Kiora has the responsibility to quickly recover and lead the Harlem Guild.
“Junho, I’m asking just in case, but the other players in his heart… …
“You don’t have to worry about that, Gilbe. Because the others have no relationship at all.”
It was something I could say because I had gone through Millpage’s memory.
“I didn’t tell anyone else that I was an infiltrator.”
Of course, stealing the information was arbitrary.
Seo Jun-ho sighed lightly.
“For now, you just need to remember these two things.”
“okay. Then I’ll get up first.”
Skaya, who had to manipulate the information, woke up first.
“Then I guess I’ll have to work out and sweat too.”
“I must go wake Arthur.”
“Gilberto, he is a grown man. He should be eating with the other sentinels by now.”
“I am not that extreme. step
I will simply check that there are no missing nutrients in the diet.”
Isn’t that extreme
When all of her friends had left, Frost, who was sitting under the couch, muttered.
“Hmm, my mouth is boring.”
Junshik, who met his eyes, scratched his head and opened his mouth.
“what is it. Can I get you some cookies or cakes? I should be there when I go to the restaurant.”
“Then I’ll make you some black tea while you bring the snacks.”
“home?”
Frost looked at the two men alternately with suspicious eyes.
“what. Why do you seem to be doing so well today? Is there any reason?”
“no. Why?”
“I feel sorry for Junshik. Has there ever been a time when we didn’t take care of you?”
“Hmm… … It’s not… … It’s a reaction that comes out when you do something wrong to a woman who’s always seen that… …
“Catch a live person. Do you have any proof?”
“that… … There is none.”
Surrey folded her arms and pondered, but the question would probably never be resolved.
Because there were only two of them in the world who knew Seongjun’s secret.
And the two of them intended to take the secret to the grave if possible.
“So you’re not going to eat it?”
“… … I never said anything like that.”
Surrey felt strangely defeated
replied bluntly.
“Bring a lot.”
