Return of the Frozen Player 575
white lies (5)
meeting room.
Even though Seo Jun-ho disappeared right in front of their eyes, the remaining two did not panic.
Seonghyun Shin naturally connected to the community voice channel.
“Captain Ball. Junho suddenly disappeared. No, it’s not hide and seek. Ask Skaya-sama to track it down right away.”
When he gave the order and closed his mouth, silence fell again in the meeting room.
‘It’s awkward.’
Son Chae-won, who was sitting across from her, was quietly gazing into space with dark circles in her eyes.
Rumor has it that he did that in order not to miss the message sent by Kim Woo-joong.
I was about to offer something comforting, but I gave up.
It seemed remote, and we weren’t even close friends.
“Master Shin Seong-hyun.”
Maybe that’s why, it was surprising that she spoke first.
“What is it? Master Son Chae-won.”
“What do you think? About the disappearance of Woojungi.”
“… … Didn’t you leave the training?”
Some say that the swordsman often needs training.
The anecdote of being away for weeks was famous worldwide.
However, Son Chae-won shook her head.
“Training always leaves me with permission.”
first time heard such a story.
“But this time, we weren’t in a situation where we could take permission.”
“That’s why it’s not because of training. He is not a person who is so irresponsible that he leaves training without a word in this situation.”
Thinking that way, I could understand to some extent why she was so concerned.
“Does Master Son Chae-won think he was kidnapped?”
“… … Good luck if you get kidnapped. I can get it back at any cost.”
Her body trembled slightly.
“But if something worse happened… … I don’t think I can ever forgive myself.”
“It’s not your fault.”
“no.”
Her face twisted, and she shook her head slightly.
“I knew that fool would take care of others first, even in retreat… … I definitely knew.”
I figured I would do well on my own.
To be honest, there were too many things to pay attention to, so there were some parts that I didn’t pay attention to.
“In the end, it was my complacency that created this situation.”
“That’s what you want to believe.”
Shin Seong-hyun said calmly.
“The swordsman has excelled since he first entered the gate as a student.”
It was literally astonishing.
It was to the extent that he offered the industry’s highest level of recruitment without hesitation.
“Even now, he is a flawless player who has filled the pentagon. If he’s put in a situation where he can’t be contacted, it’s just bad luck.”
“A guild master should not be shaken at times like this. Only then will the subordinates trust and follow us.”
Always trusting the guild members and silently doing what needs to be done in one’s position.
That was exactly what a guild master should look like.
Hearing the stinging sound, Son Chae-won laughed bitterly.
“I got scolded.”
“I’m sorry if I offended you.”
“… … No, thank you for scolding me harshly.”
She closed the message window and buried herself in the back of the chair.
“If Woojungi saw me now, he would surely be disappointed.”
“I will.”
“You really are relentless.”
She smiled lightly and got up from her seat.
“First, excuse me. I need to wash my face and get some rest.”
“Master Son Chae-won.”
Shin Seong-hyun said to her as she left the meeting room.
“I don’t believe in any particular god, but I will pray for the safe return of the Sword Saint.”
“thank you. If Woojung comes back later and tells you that, he will be happy.”
The moment the two smiled lightly and nodded.
Pajijijijik!
A holy light burst from one side of the conference room.
“What!?”
A moment for the two to be wary of the suddenly created door.
A blonde woman popped out from inside.
“It’s been a long time since summer. Mmmmm.”
The eyes of the two men sharpened toward the woman who looked around curiously.
‘He’s not a player.’
‘then… … enemy.’
Because I had memorized every single face of my ally.
Shin Seong-hyun’s hand was stirred without hesitation.
“Prestissimo.”
Quajit, quasijit!
At the same time, the space where the woman was standing twisted at a very high speed.
“huh?”
However, even though the space was twisted, there were no wounds on the opponent’s body.
The woman stared blankly at the person who attacked her and opened her mouth.
“… … ah. In case you didn’t know who I was, just take a look. Shouldn’t it be like this next time instead?”
I don’t know what it was, but I was forgiven.
At the same time, tears welled up in my eyes and a pious heart welled up.
For a moment, Shin Seong-hyun and Son Chae-won looked at each other with puzzled faces.
Another person came through the door.
“Junho!”
“hmm? You two are still in the conference room… … No, but why is the atmosphere like this?”
Seo Jun-ho, who confirmed the drawn faces of the two, asked with his eyes wide open.
Helik immediately raised his hand and snitched.
all.
“That human attacked me.”
“Yes?”
“Ah, no that. I don’t know if they are together… … I’m really sorry.”
Helic, who was looking at Shin Seong-hyun, who was embarrassed and apologetic, turned his head.
“I have already forgiven you. More than that, Seo Jun-ho? Come on, guide me.”
“Ah, yes. Then see you two later.”
After leaving the conference room, Seo Jun-ho hurriedly headed for his gymnasium.
* * *
Helik snorted at the ice cake statues carved on the walls of the gymnasium.
“cake? It’s not a kid.”
“That’s frost engraved.”
“… … The finish is great.”
I’ve felt it for a long time, but the temperature difference between her frost and herself was quite severe.
‘That’s why I thought he hated humans.’
Seeing that he forgave even after being attacked by Shin Seong-hyeon a while ago, it doesn’t seem like that at all.
Do I have to say that I am only harsh on myself?
Seo Jun-ho looked at her blankly and asked.
“Helic, can I ask you something?”
“no. Bring me an ice tray with your friend in it.”
“yes.”
Seo Jun-ho, who listened to his words, said, “Strawberry.”
The topping part was straight out.
Helik stepped in front of him.
“Melt it.”
“Would you mind if I stayed closer? This guy is still… …
“her? It’s very absurd. Who cares about whom now?”
When the omnipotent Helic fired a stinging glance, Seo Jun-ho hurriedly melted the ice.
cooong.
The ice melted and the body swayed on the floor of the gymnasium.
“Big……
Kim Woo-jung, who slowly raised his trembling body, raised his head.
red (赤色).
The moment he saw the full color of the enemy in his eyes, Seo Jun-ho’s face darkened.
‘That guy has red eyes on his face… … It’s too unfamiliar.’
Seo-ri and Seong-jun talked a lot about sword demons.
However, what you hear through the mouth of others and what you see with your own eyes are reversed.
There was a huge difference between
“… … Helic, is it possible?”
“possible.”
After replying briefly and firmly, Helic approached the Sword Demon.
“Your head is too stiff.”
cooong!
The turbulent divine power brought him to his knees.
“Play… … Following… … human… … kill… …
“Poor thing. But I am neither a player nor a human being.”
Brilliant divine power formed on Helic’s fingertips, who had a sad expression on his face.
“The omnipotent sun god.”
“Kuuuuuuuuuu!”
shaking.
The moment when Kim Woo-joong, who had constantly spewed out demonic energy, was about to rise up against the divine power.
“Hymns of Angels.”
Helic licked his lips quietly.
At the same time, Seo Jun-ho’s eyes widened.
‘This… … feather?’
Pure white feathers fluttered throughout the gymnasium.
The feathers were falling from cute babies with white wings on their backs.
“Kuaaa! Craaaaaa!”
The babies with flapping wings smiled brightly and hugged Kim Woo-jung all over the body.
Helik took a step towards him, whose movements were blocked.
“A human with a white heart who couldn’t even erase dirty blood.”
Just by looking at it, a pious radiance surges.
“Take off your false skin.”
Helic’s fingers, soaked in that light, gently landed on Kim Woo-jung’s forehead.
“Wake up.”
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
‘Ugh’ “X.
Seo Jun-ho narrowed his eyes.
It was because the golden light that even he couldn’t look straight at engulfed the gymnasium.
After a while, when I slowly opened my eyes, the ferocious Kim Woo-jung was lowering his head.
Seo Jun-ho asked cautiously.
“… … Did it end well?”
“Why don’t you check it yourself?”
Nodding his head, Seo Jun-ho stepped in front of him and slowly lowered his body.
“Are you out of your mind?”
When I asked in a cautious voice, Kim Woo-jung raised his head slowly.
white (白色).
The moment you look at the ‘white’ eyes dotted with silent tears.
Seo Jun-ho unknowingly bit his lip.
“Jun Ho……
Kim Woo-jung, who laughed, caught the flowing tears with both hands.
“I don’t know. Why are there so many tears… …
“How is your body?”
“It’s drowsy. It’s like having a long dream.”
“What kind of dream was it?”
rumbling.
Kim Woo-joong, who felt sick to his stomach and broke into a cold sweat, spat out a self-deprecating voice.
“Bad, very unpleasant and difficult… … It was a long dream.”
Seo Jun-ho silently patted him on the shoulder.
it’s a long dream
‘Yes, it’s a long dream.’
really far back
Like Woojungi said, you feel good too
It felt like waking up from a bad, long nightmare.
“Forget it. It was just a nightmare.”
“It seems like I slept for a very long time… …
Why are my eyes closed again?
Kim Woo-jung opened his mouth, forcibly raising his eyelids that kept falling.
“Jun Ho… …
thank you.
For pulling me out of the pit of a terrible dream.
Kim Woo-joong couldn’t bear to say that
This new model fell to one side.
Seo Jun-ho, who accepted the body, murmured softly.
“I’m glad you’re back too. Swordsman (劍星).”
Seo Jun-ho, carrying him on his back, approached Helic.
“Thank you very much, Helic.”
“… … Do not be mistaken. It was just a deal.”
“of course. I will definitely take the relics of the power plant as well.”
“joy.”
Helic, who snorted lightly, opened and closed his fists several times.
As expected, the divine power disappeared cleanly after removing that human’s demonic energy.
He’ll probably have to act like a rat dead for a while to regain his strength.
After thinking about something for a while, she threw her gaze at the place of love and opened her mouth.
“The Frost Queen… … What are you usually doing at this time?”
“Oh, will you stand?”
After checking the time for a while, Seo Jun-ho replied.
“Are you going to sleep at this time?”
Helik looked at him with cold eyes.
“If I don’t know, I will confess I don’t know. why do you lie There’s no way the spirit can’t sleep.”
“No, it’s true. He sleeps a lot.”
Seo Jun-ho, who was accused of being a strange person for no reason
complained of regret.
“If you don’t believe me, would you like to check it out for yourself?”
“… … check? I myself?”
Their perky ears indicate that they are interested.
Helic crossed his arms and nodded as if he couldn’t help it.
“What if you begged that much? Let’s take a look for a while… … peel?”
