8.
Dabin Hwang and Selina were waiting outside for Siwoo Lee, Mir Yoon, and Seol Choi to come out.
The two people who were hanging around outside saw someone coming out of the basement and hid in a corner.
If it was someone else, they could have been in trouble if they ran into each other, so they hid it.
At that time, Lee Si-woo’s voice was heard.
“Seol-ah, you don’t need to apologize. Because my father would have made the choice anyway. However, I feel like I need to make this clear. Choi Seol. “Whose side are you going to take?”
Selina and Hwang Da-bin, who were about to come out around the corner after confirming that Lee Si-woo had appeared at that question, stopped.
Whose side are you on? Was there anything to talk about in the basement other than taking someone’s side?
With that in mind, Selina and Hwang Da-bin waited for Choi Seol’s answer.
“I’m sorry, Siwoo. Not yet… “You can’t choose.”
What should I choose?
With that curiosity in mind, Dabin Hwang turned the corner and stepped forward.
This is because Choi Seol seemed troubled by Lee Si-woo’s question, so he wanted to break the mood.
“Lee Si-woo!”
“uh? “Dabin.”
“I was waiting for you to come out. how is it? Was there anything harvested inside?”
Selina followed Dabin Hwang and carefully turned the corner and came out.
“No, I didn’t get any information.”
It was Yoon Mir who answered Hwang Da-bin’s question.
At those words, Hwang Da-bin glared at Yoon Mir.
It looked like he had gotten some information, but he didn’t seem to have any intention of sharing it.
“What about the other kids?”
“I’m resting outside. “Everyone looked exhausted.”
It was worth it. The apocalypse broke out and everyone needed rest as they moved around day and night to deal with it.
“Let’s go out first. “The heroes went in, so they will come out with something.”
I said that and walked outside.
There was something I realized while talking with Shin Eun-jeong and Yoon Jeong-su.
I had something to check with my friends. The concerns hidden in their hearts had to be resolved before the ending.
To do that, I needed to find out about other friends’ concerns.
As I walked outside, I glanced sideways at Dabin Hwang and Selina.
Choi Seol’s worries had only just begun, and there was no need to worry about Yoon Mir because he was a guy who prioritized making the world peaceful again.
That’s why I was going to listen to Hwang Da-bin and Selina’s concerns first.
Especially Selina.
Come to think of it, I had never heard of why Selina came to a distant, foreign land and enrolled in Awakening High School.
I needed to find out about his family circumstances.
Since everything started with the world’s first destruction anyway, Selina must also have an unspeakable secret.
I walked out, wondering how I was going to find out Selina’s secret.
9.
“Siwoo!”
When I went outside, Yoo Ah-ram was the first to greet me.
When I saw Yoo Ah-ram, I remembered the time when I resolved Yoo Ah-ram’s trauma.
Monster phobia.
I treated Yoo Ah-ram’s trauma with shock therapy.
After that, Yoo Ah-ram was following me well.
‘ah… … .’
Something suddenly occurred to me.
Another item in the status window that I wasn’t paying attention to.
[Intimacy]
‘Perhaps this intimacy may be the key to the solution… … .’
When I looked at Yoo Ah-ram’s status window, I could see how close I was to Yoo Ah-ram.
My intimacy with Yoo Ah-ram had already risen to 80.
It seemed like our intimacy with Yoo Ah-ram increased rapidly as we communicated while filming videos together to upload to each tube.
When I slowly turned my gaze to look at Selina, I could see that my intimacy with Selina was 50.
‘This is it.’
I recalled that when my intimacy with Goldie reached 100, I began to understand all of Goldie’s ‘squeak’ cries.
I was confident that if I could also raise my intimacy with other guys to 100, I would be able to figure out a way to make my friends happy.
“What is the situation?”
“The reaction to the fight video you posted with Hyejin is no joke. “I’m hoping that most of my subscribers will challenge the final gate, mainly you.”
At those words, I looked at Ban Hye-jin, who was watching the video posted on each tube next to me.
The smile on his lips was an expression I quite liked.
“okay? I’m glad.”
“What is it, Lee Si-woo… You’re aiming for this… … .”
I nodded at Kang Ha-rin’s words.
At this point, it is time to tell the kids here about my intentions.
“that’s right. From the beginning, I had no intention of giving people a choice. “The Rebellions formed public opinion, and I planned to use that public opinion to enter the final gate with the awakened people I wanted.”
“So you’re the one in charge of the control tower.”
Unlike before, Yunmir also seemed to acknowledge me and seemed to agree with what I said.
“It certainly might be better this way.”
At Ji Tae-hoon’s words, I looked back at the protagonists of Part 2 and the children of the Seven Heroes gathered here.
Seven of the people here were the ones who would enter the final gate.
“Then when do I upload the rest of the videos?”
“Well, I’m going to solidify public opinion by seeing you guys use your talents. If that happens, even heroes will have no choice. “Because what people want is a party centered around me.”
“It was the perfect strategy. Hehe.”
From Jeong Joo-won’s words, his friends understood how the situation was going.
This means that Lee Si-woo, Yoo Ah-ram, and Jeong Ju-won strategically uploaded the video.
“So who do you think the final seven will be?”
Everyone’s eyes focused on me at Hwang Da-bin’s question.
“I haven’t decided yet. To enter the final gate, you need to find a key, but you haven’t found the key yet. “It’s not too late to find the key and think about it.”
My friends nodded at what I said.
When I reminded him that it was not time to think about the final gate yet, Jeong Ju-won said,
“Anyway, is only the first branch of the Rebellions left?”
“I guess so.”
“A guy with similar talent to Siwoo who appeared in the video. “Isn’t he a Rebellion too?”
Yoo Ah-ram’s words reminded me of a guy named Hwang Jae-hyuk who appeared in the video posted by Rebellions.
I got enough information about my father.
Now it was time to gather information about him.
“It did seem that way, but you’ll have to meet him to find out for sure.”
At least among the awakened members of Rebellions that I know, there was no one like Hwang Jae-hyuk.
Even if the author of ‘Ise’ had intervened, it would not have harmed plausibility, one of the important elements of web novels.
I decided that although Hwang Jae-hyuk may be related to Rebellions, he is not an awakened member of Rebellions.
“Do you want to meet me? “The guy in the video?”
I shook my head at Jeong Joo-won’s words.
“Even if you stay still, you will have no choice but to meet.”
“huh? What are you talking about?”
“Why did they upload that video? It was posted targeting me. “Even if I stay still, they will come looking for me.”
The moment I meet Hwang Jae-hyuk will probably be the moment of finality with Rebellions.
“Roommate, are you saying that the Rebellions will attack again?”
Quang!
The moment Jeong Joo-won finished speaking, Awakening High School shook with a huge explosion of alcohol.
“… “I guess I can’t be a nobleman.”
We immediately opened the window and looked in the direction from which the explosion had come.
Numerous people in black appeared from the magic circle created in the sky.
10.
‘You don’t give me time to rest.’
While I was taking a break, I thought I would invite my friends over one by one and talk to them.
I was planning on trying to increase intimacy, but after seeing the Rebellions attack, I had no choice but to postpone it.
“What are you talking about?!”
The heroes in the basement were coming upstairs when they suddenly heard an explosion.
“that… “I think the Rebellions have invaded?”
At Yoo Ah-ram’s words, I looked at Choi Kang, who had come up from the basement.
The timing was somehow perfect.
Choi Kang summoned seven heroes to Awakening High School, and just then the Rebellions attacked.
The angles matched too well for it to be a coincidence.
‘Well, you’ll find out gradually.’
What was important now was how to stop the invading Rebellions rather than doubting the teacher.
“They came in without even knowing that this was a tiger’s den.”
While watching Ban Isu smoothing his sword body, I looked back at the seven heroes preparing for battle.
“You guys stay here. Their target is probably the two guys in the basement.”
I nodded at Choi Kang’s words.
It hasn’t been long since the battle with Shin Eun-jeong and Yoon Jeong-su.
There was a need to regroup before fighting them again.
“We’ll take care of those guys.”
As I watched Yoo Da-hee break her neck, I thought I should do my job and called Selina softly.
“Selina.”
“huh?”
“Please come outside for a moment.”
Selina followed me out without any hesitation at my call, and the other friends didn’t pay much attention to me, probably because they thought I was trying to recharge my talents.
“why? “You want me to hit you?”
After laughing at Selina’s first words, I turned to her and spoke with a serious expression.
“It will be your turn next. “Selina.”
“Yes? What about Choi Seol?”
“Choi Seol… “Still on hold.”
“Is there any other reason?”
“no. “It’s not like that.”
If I had to give a reason, it was to increase intimacy with Selina, but I couldn’t say that.
To bring out Selina’s hidden feelings, I first told her the truth she was hiding from me.
“The reason I summoned you like this is to tell the heads of the 2nd and 3rd Rebellions branches in the basement about what I found out.”
“huh? “Only for me?”
“For now, I think I should only talk to people I trust.”
Selina tilted her head at those words.
I wondered if Lee Si-woo was talking like this because it was some kind of secret.
“What’s the story?”
“A story about my parents.”
Selina’s face darkened at those words.
When I saw that, I could tell that Selina’s hidden secret was related to her parents.
I asked Selina subtly.
“Oh, was it too sudden? Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of Selina’s parents. ”
Selina pondered for a moment whether to answer my question, then opened her mouth.
“huh. I can’t meet my parents anymore… … .”
“ah… sorry… … .”
I didn’t know he had passed away. If my parents were dead, I couldn’t find a way to improve.
So how do we find Selina’s happiness?
Selina responded to my apology.
“No, because I didn’t know. What’s more relevant to your parents?”
“ah… … .”
In a situation like this, how can I say that my father was actually a hero who saved the world?
-Okay, it’s frustrating.
The moment I hesitated, Selina’s eyes changed.
-Hey, human kid. So what do you want to say to him?
It was the appearance of Ifrit, the spirit king of fire, who borrowed Selina’s body.
