00374 When winter passes, spring comes. ————————————————– ———————-=
While making eye contact, about 5 seconds passed.
“great.”
And I immediately changed my mind and granted his request to go with him.
“ah… !”
Then, with a faint elasticity, the raised eyebrows become rounded. A moment later, a bright smile appeared on Im Hanna’s tightly pressed lips.
“Suhyeon! Me, really? Really?”
Im Hanna showed an expression of relief with a brighter face. But I didn’t answer right away. Instead, he raised his head and stared into space. In the space I was looking at, a new message from the ‘Battlefield Protection’ that came in a little while ago appeared.
『Updating user Jeong Ha-yeon’s information.』
Jeong Ha-yeon’s information has been updated. I quickly assessed distance and direction. Then, it was found that information almost similar to that from the time of Imhanna had been updated.
Without thinking twice, I decided to make Jeong Ha-yeon my next rescue target.
After making up my mind, I finally looked at Im Hanna. Now that the decision had been made, it was time to take action.
“yes. Instead, there is one condition.”
“yes? “What are the conditions?”
“You must unconditionally follow what I say while accompanying you. “If you are not confident in keeping this, I will never allow you to accompany me.”
“sure. “I will definitely protect it.”
In response to my threats, Hanna nodded with an expression that seemed natural. It seems she has already forgotten her resistance from a moment ago.
“I promise. If you just let me go with you… .”
“… … .”
To be honest, his attitude of not showing any hesitation was very unreliable. But now that Hannah had something to do for her, I quickly walked closer to her. Then she placed her hand on the body of the woman who was looking up at me without moving a single inch, and lifted her into her princess embrace.
Im Hanna let out a weak scream.
“Oh my!”
“Even if that were… .”
“Mmm, Mercenary Lord… ?”
“Even if they tell you to turn back while accompanying them. “You will have to comply.”
Im Hanna just blinked her eyes.
But then he slowly lowered his eyelids and slowly stretched out his arms to wrap around my neck. Eventually, when I felt a smooth hand near my neck, I started running without delay.
“I… . I am confident that I can run well… .”
The dissatisfaction that continued slowly disappeared as soon as I picked up my pace.
Im Hanna’s agility ability is 92 points. There is a difference of 6 points between her and me. Of course, 92 can achieve very fast speeds, but it is true that there is a big difference in speed compared to mine, which is assisted by various equipment. Moreover, she was not dealing with her enemies one by one, but was passing them by as much as she could, so her best option for now was to carry her.
Clap, clap!
Pub-bung, pub-bung!
The further we went across the battlefield, the more miserable it became. Arrows and magic were raining down as if bombing was pouring down, and thick smoke rising here and there was rising tens of meters high.
“Don’t run away, gather together! Gather together!”
“Now, just a moment! don’t go! help me! Please save me… . “Quaaaah!”
The sound of fighting and resisting the slaughter of enemies as much as possible. The sound of someone falling somewhere and calling for rescue.
“Mmm, Mercenary Lord… .”
“… … .”
Various sounds, starting from heavy drinking, flowed in at the same time. But I passed it all by without any hesitation. Avoid bombing, and if you see an enemy, jump over it.
Now my focus was solely on rescue. What happened to other users or what they were doing was none of my business. Just taking care of the people I knew was a daunting task for me now.
While I was running as hard as I could, I suddenly felt a warm touch gently brushing my cheek. Suddenly, when I lower my head, I see Im Hannah looking up at me with blank eyes. But our gazes only met for a moment. At the same time I raised her head again, she also looked away and lowered her hand.
“The blood… . Because it’s buried… .”
“… … .”
Soon, I felt a little sorry when I heard a faint voice coming from below. She offered to follow me at best, but I was planning to send her away soon. As she had chosen Jeong Ha-yeon as her next rescue target, she had planned to ask her to accompany her so that she could safely reach her defense line. Then, you will be able to move directly to the next target without having to go back and forth.
‘I’m sure you’ll understand.’
However, thinking that it was an unavoidable situation, I jumped into the ash-mixed smoke rising before my eyes.
The distance he was separated from Jeong Ha-yeon was 110 meters based on the point where he met Im Hanna. If you pass by this place, you will immediately reach the second rescue point. As we reached the goal point, I took a deep breath.
Soon, my vision turned black with ash sticking to my face. But as soon as she broke through the smoke, she recovered again and at that moment stopped walking.
Still, the screams are heard.
I quietly put down Lim Hanna and looked around the area.
The enemies gathered in large groups cannot be seen, as they have already swept away in a big way. As such, there were no users standing nearby. All that was visible was the blood flowing on the ground and the countless corpses decorating it.
And Jeong Ha-yeon’s information was being confirmed in this pile of syllables.
Although my mind was racing for a moment, I quickly activated my third eye. After that, he went to the place where he could feel Jeong Ha-yeon and began to sift through the countless piles of corpses.
『User Kim Ju-yeon (deceased)』
『User Kaisa Matthew (deceased)』
『User Shin Hyeon-tae (deceased)』
『User Brian James (deceased)』
『User Kim A-young (deceased)』
『User Jeong Ha-yeon (fatal wound)』
『… … .』
『User Kate Bellamy (deceased)』
『User Kim Ji-hoon (deceased)』
『User Han Hyo-jin (fatal wound)』
『… … .』
‘found.’
Finally, the moment I found Jeong Ha-yeon and confirmed her condition, I breathed a sigh of relief. And he was just about to run away. In response to the sudden flow of magical energy from the side, I quickly pulled out ‘Victoria’s Glory’ and struck it with the blade of my sword.
Empty!
“ah!”
“Don’t attract unnecessary attention.”
Im Hanna was aiming somewhere towards ‘Brilliant Flash, Laura Phyllis’. She seemed to have almost missed it, so she hurriedly grabbed it and immediately lowered her head with a dazed look on her face.
After giving instructions again to Im Hanna to be on guard, I immediately rushed to the pile of squirts. I already knew where it was.
After kicking over all the bodies that bothered them, they eventually found Jeong Ha-yeon lying on the ground with a pale face.
Her once beautiful blue hair was soaked in blood and scattered around. Then, looking down, you see two arrows sticking into her abdomen. Perhaps some of her blood is mixed in the blood flowing like a stream now.
As I thought about that, my heart started pounding. But rather than holding on to Jeong Ha-yeon and crying awkwardly, I did not forget what I had to do first. He lifted her body, broke the arrowhead and flagpole, and pulled out the arrow shaft, which was left with only her body.
“Yes… !”
It was only for a moment, but Jeong Ha-yeon’s body slightly shook. Then, her closed eyes gently opened, and her barely visible blue eyes stared at me. It seems like I’m not sure if the faintest glimmer of confusion is looking at me.
So, I opened the door first.
“Jeong Ha-yeon. You worked hard. “It’s safe now.”
Soon, Jeong Ha-yeon’s lips were pulled apart with difficulty.
“number… .”
However, Jeong Ha-yeon was unable to continue speaking as she soon lost her strength. Her eyes close again and her head falls listlessly.
color… . color… .
However, taking comfort in the thin breath that continued, he eliminated the remaining one as well. After that, I immediately used my magic power and gently applied pressure to several spots on my stomach. After a while, the blood flowing out began to decrease and soon stopped.
Only after confirming that, I finally picked up Jeong Ha-yeon and turned around.
“Ha, Hayeon, unnie?”
Im Hanna, who was standing guard, also looked very surprised as if she had seen Jeong Ha-yeon.
“Uh, sister… . oh my god… . no way… ?”
“He’s not dead yet.”
Eventually, I shook my head as I saw Im Hanna raising her head. And then she slowly stretched out her arms towards her. Im Hanna tilted her head for a moment, but still quickly adjusted her bow and accepted her bow.
I continued speaking immediately.
“Hannah Im. “It’s a little early, but I think we should stop accompanying you here.”
“yes… . yes?”
Im Hanna asked back with a puzzled look on her face, but I continued as if it was already an established fact.
“I’m sure you remember the location of the defense line I mentioned earlier, right?”
“Yes, but… .”
“For now, run to the point where you first met. If you see an enemy, avoid it at all costs and be careful of arrows and magic. And never try to cross the battlefield just because you are in a hurry. As I said before, when you arrive at the point, you can immediately go outside. “Once you successfully escape, the enemy will be almost invisible.”
“… … .”
“Then, please take care of Jeong Ha-yeon.”
After saying those words, I immediately turned around. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to check on Jeong Ha-yeon’s safety. But for that to happen, there are still too many people to save. Therefore, I had no choice but to suppress the unknown emotions that were rising and run again.
Just as I had decided before entering the battlefield, I couldn’t afford to waste even a single step.
“Now, just a moment!”
It was then. Just as I was about to rush out after giving the final warning, Im Hanna’s urgent voice caught me.
I was envious of that action, but I turned around again. Im Hanna’s attitude then was a sight to behold. She looked at me with a helpless expression on her face, and then shifted her gaze back and forth to Jeong Ha-yeon.
Im Hanna seemed like she still wanted to follow me. Still, she seemed to be concerned about Jeong Ha-yeon, who looked like she was going to run out of breath at any moment, because she didn’t act resolutely like before.
Finally, as if she had made up her mind, Im Hanna opened her mouth in a cautious voice.
“Merchionary Road.”
“?”
“just… . Can you go to the defensive line with me? ?”
And the moment I heard those words, I felt the emotions I had been holding in until now surged up. I tried my best to swallow it, but in the end, I opened my mouth softly with a few streams of anger leaking out.
“User Lim Hanna.”
Good luck! Grumble!
“now… . “Doesn’t what I say sound right?”
At that moment, Im Hanna retreated with a shocked look on her face. There was a look of fear on her face that could not be hidden. And only then did I realize that I had made the mistake of unknowingly venting my anger more than necessary.
I immediately took in the energy that had leaked out and stared at Im Hanna.
After a while.
Im Hanna looked at me with sad eyes, then lowered her eyes and turned away. Soon, she started running away, holding her Jeong Ha-yeon dearly.
‘At that speed… . ‘I don’t think I’ll ever get caught.’
Seeing Im Hanna close the distance in no time, I felt relieved.
Then he turned his back and started moving to the next target.
*
When I opened my eyes after being hit by a tsunami, the battlefield had completely changed.
Pub-bung, pub-bung!
“Save me!”
Magic sounds. The subsequent cry for help.
Shoo shoo, shoo shoo!
“Aaaah!”
The sound of an arrow. Another scream continues.
Although my vision was blurry because I wasn’t wearing glasses, the various sounds I heard indirectly informed me of the surrounding situation. Shin Sang-yong’s face was distorted as he held his tangled head.
I still don’t know the details. No, is it accurate to say that I didn’t have time to look into it in detail?
In my mind, the woman’s piercing scream, which I had heard before even before I could get up again, continued to ring out in my mind. At that moment, she thought that if she touched something unknown, she would be in big trouble, so she jumped up, enduring the severe pain that surged from her thigh. And she ran without looking straight ahead.
Shin Sang-yong just ran and ran.
“Huff, huff, huff, huff!”
How long did it run like that? What happened?
My heart was pounding loudly, and I suddenly felt mildly dizzy. It seems like it’s been going on for a really long time, but the battlefield shows no sign of ending.
Shin Sang-yong was in despair. I could feel her whole body shaking from the vibrations flowing through her body. Seeing the tears running down her cheeks, she must have been sobbing without realizing it. That wasn’t all. Her thighs were hot as if in front of a stove, and something resembling sweat was flowing down them. However, it was too hot to be considered sweat and had a weak viscosity.
While he continued running, Shin Sang-yong eventually looked down, unable to overcome the rising pain. Then his right thigh, covered in blood, caught his eye.
“omg!”
At that moment, my running foot hit something soft, and I fell forward.
Chijijijijijik!
The thrown body soon slid forward, scraping its face hard against the ground.
For a moment, Shin Sang-yong felt a stinging sensation on his face, but it lasted only for a moment.
“───! ───!”
Shin Sang-yong jumped up as if it were a lie at the sound of shouting that suddenly came and the distance gradually decreased. His thighs were so sore that he couldn’t move his body, but the single thought of running away was what made him stand up.
But is it too late?
Just as he was about to run, Shin Sang-yong felt a rough hand on his shoulder. He reflexively turned his head, fearful of death coming to him in an instant.
And that moment.
“Wow, bro! Sangyongi hyung! “Huh, huh!”
I could see Anhyun right in front of me.
Behind him, long red hair was fluttering in the air.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
hello. This is Ro Yujin.
Personally, this is a chapter for Shin Sang-yong that I really wanted to write.
The war will end soon.
Originally, it was planned to include a scene where Kim Soo-hyun rescues one more time, along with scenes where other users other than the main character are active. (It was thought that this would allow the scene to be included from Kim Soo-hyun’s point of view, who is only focused on the rescue.)
However, in order to make the story unfold as quickly as possible, that part will be omitted and the reunion with Kim Soo-hyun will be included at the same time as Shin Sang-yong’s part ends. In other words, Jeong Ha-yeon is the last person to be detailed about the rescue, and the rest will be mentioned briefly. I will adjust that part as much as possible.
The subtitle of this chapter is ‘When winter passes, spring comes.’ no see.
Among them, the last episode will feature a fleeting moment from Shin Sang-yong’s point of view, and will use a composition similar to the ‘long take’ in the movie.
Once this chapter is over, the war will probably end in the next chapter.
I hope this answers the readers’ questions.
and… . Sorry for always being late these days.
Friday is the last day I return from school.
I can’t guarantee midnight, but even if I upload it a little late, I will never ruin the series.
thank you _(__)_
