01049 Omnibus – Sovereign Of Sword (complete). ————————————————– ———————-=
There was an uneasy feeling in the conference room for no reason.
There is not even a sound of breathing on the hardened tabletop.
Only the flowing air is so tense that it seems as if it will burst with the slightest touch.
Is this really the situation before the storm?
“… … “There is one thing I want to ask you.”
While everyone was holding their breath, a familiar voice came from one side.
In the direction Kim Soo-hyun turned, Jegal Hae-sol was alone, twitching her lips.
As if trying to force something down.
“You introduced yourself earlier as Mercenary Lord Kim Soo-hyun, right?”
“you’re right.”
“In other words, it is the symmetry of Kim Soo-yeon, who is here in that world, right? “Only the genders are reversed.”
“What are you trying to ask?”
Then Jegal Haesol, with his ten fingers interlaced, slowly rested his chin on the back of his hand.
“I suddenly became curious. In your world I am, no. What happened to us?”
‘It must have happened somehow.’ It was a confident tone.
“honestly.”
Jegal Haesol’s eyes became deep.
“He died.”
Kim Soo-hyun responded immediately.
After slowly looking around Yoo Hyeon-ah, who had a surprised expression on her face.
“I killed him.”
He added quietly.
“why… … . yo. this?”
After a moment of commotion, Yoo Hyeon-ah asked in a faint voice.
“I thought it would be an obstacle to my goals.”
“Were you an enemy?”
“It was an ambiguous relationship to look at it that way.”
“then?”
“There is a saying called flexor flexors. I judged that there was a high possibility that they would become enemies later. “I deliberately created a situation where he could be killed with the intention of pulling out the root of the problem in advance.”
“… … oh my god… … .”
Kim Soo-hyun answered calmly without the slightest change in expression.
Yoo Hyeon-ah couldn’t hide her displeasure, covering her mouth with one hand with a tired face.
“Hey. “How can they be so similar?”
Jegal Haesol seemed to have heard what he wanted and his smiling face returned.
“I’m jealous~. For some, a handsome prince on a white horse comes to save them from another world.”
“… … .”
“Oh~. Who wouldn’t want to come to us too?”
“… … Pfft!”
As she stretched and even made a sarcastic comment, Kim Soo-yeon let out a suppressed moan.
Kim Soo-hyun shook his head.
“no. “Sooyeon Kim and I clearly share a similar worldview, but we are completely different people.”
“Gender is like that. But I guess the personality and behavior are the same?”
“different.”
“Can you prove it?”
Kim Soo-hyun’s face was still calm despite his endless sarcastic remarks.
At that time, a mysterious smile crossed his lips as he stared blankly for a while.
“It’s like watching a hyena trying to find one.”
Although it was low, it was a voice that was clearly imprinted in my ears.
The smile on the corner of Jegal Hae-sol’s mouth, which had been up the whole time, suddenly became faint, and then instantly became twice as dark.
“Now you’re talking nonsense. Even the characteristics of what you do when you have nothing to say are completely the same.”
“Wasn’t there a predetermined answer from the beginning?”
“There are valid grounds and reasons for our attitude. It’s their fault, not ours, for not being able to convince them of that. Or why we don’t believe it. Should I at least tell you again the atrocities of the woman sitting next to you?”
“… … .”
Kim Soo-yeon, who had received the point, still had a blood-stained face.
My tightly closed mouth is trembling. What is he thinking?
“no. it’s okay.”
At that time, Kim Soo-hyun suddenly nodded his head.
“I’ve been stabbed once in the back, so I’m afraid of being taken advantage of again… … . “Well, it’s not a bad idea.”
Even if it was just a little, his voice softened.
“is it so. I understand.”
Suddenly the words changed.
“I am an outsider anyway. Since she will be leaving soon, we cannot guarantee what user Kim Soo-yeon will do in the future. yes. you’re right. “Perhaps, as you said, he may be thinking of betraying me after I leave.”
Kim Soo-yeon looked blankly at the man who was speaking and gritted his teeth pitifully.
His face looked like he was going to cry at any moment.
I lower my head as if I couldn’t bear it anymore.
“therefore. Let’s do it. War.”
Kim Soo-hyun turned his body diagonally and slowly got out of the side of the chair.
“The public enemy, the devil, has already come to the fore and taken over the entire continent except here.”
Coming around the table.
“Even though it was a golden opportunity to drive them out of Atlanta and break half of the demon army.”
One step.
“By now, Satan, who has been briefed on the situation of the war, will have drawn up a plan that we cannot know and will quickly put it into action.”
One step.
“Even if there is a way to easily conquer Terra and feed the devil, and make everyone happy.”
One step.
“But we can’t form an alliance. “Because you can’t form an alliance without sincerity.”
Kim Soo-hyun took another leisurely step forward.
“So, let’s go to war.”
He finally stopped walking when he faced Yoo Hyeon-ah.
“It’s that sincerity.”
“… … .”
“Is it true that you are crying out so loudly that some people are fighting against the devil on the front line, while others are just looking for a fisherman’s fortune behind the scenes?”
“yes yes?”
Was it something unexpected?
Yoo Hyeon-ah stuttered.
It was something that already made me feel uncomfortable.
“Please don’t assume that we are the same. “It’s not like we had that attitude from the beginning, right?”
Jegal Hae-sol, who saw Yoo Hyeon-ah fidgeting after being stabbed by Jeonggok, quickly retorted.
“The culprit was when the western incident occurred.”
“Apart from being stabbed in the back, devil seeds are extremely dangerous.”
Kim Soo-hyun also immediately stopped talking.
“As you can see from other continents, the infection rate is beyond imagination. What if the Northern Alliance’s opinion was followed and the seeds were spread elsewhere? Can you take responsibility?”
“Why are you like this? No amount of words can justify her actions. “It’s meaningless to make assumptions about her now, right?”
Then Kim Soo-hyun sneered.
“That’s fun.”
“?”
“Is your claim that the Confederacy would betray a meaningful assumption, and I mean, a meaningless assumption?”
“!”
For the first time, a smile escaped Jegal Haesol’s face.
Yoo Hyeon-ah barely opened her mouth.
“we are-. “You are a victim.”
“So you’re saying I have to understand?”
Kim Soo-hyun snorted.
“Are they pushing forward every single guess that is favorable to them and ignoring the ones that are unfavorable?”
“Not looking away!”
“Why is your own behavior supposed to be justified and understood, but you don’t even try to understand the other person’s behavior?”
“Well, that’s… … .”
“How long are you going to tolerate that double standard?”
“… … .”
In the end, Yoo Hyeon-ah also closed her mouth.
“Isn’t it funny when you think about it to yourself?”
Kim Soo-hyun, who silenced the two women in an instant, moved one step closer.
To the place where Yoo Hyeon-ah is standing.
“I do bad things, but I am conscious. “At least I know I’m not a good guy.”
Cold breath tickled the top of my head.
Yoo Hyeon-ah took a short breath.
My eyes were lowered without me realizing it.
Below, I could see the jet black armor of a man approaching right in front of me.
“Maybe that’s why… … . Not knowing their own actions. If you see that the other person is bad and you think that you are unconditionally right and good… … .”
“S-Stop-.”
“… … “It’s so disgusting that I can’t stand it.”
“Please stop it-!”
The last words were almost a whisper.
Yoo Hyeon-ah reflexively screamed and collapsed.
“As you said, Kim Soo-yeon committed several atrocities, including the Western Incident. And thanks to that, the Northern Continent was able to avoid being encroached upon by the devil’s seeds.”
However, Kim Soo-hyun didn’t care at all and took a breath.
After a moment of silence, we continue talking.
“Even though I knew he would be my enemy, I didn’t bother to kill him.”
When her story came out, Kim Soo-yeon lifted her head that had been lowered in despair.
“Even here today, I cannot properly utilize even one secret to conquer Terra.”
The man in the center was looking back at her.
“Even if some people accuse him of being a tyrant or a pushover.”
The two faintly trembling pupils matched the man’s emotionless eyes.
“I am.”
And Kim Soo-hyun said.
“I envy her for still being able to call her human, and I think she’s amazing.”
At that moment, Kim Soo-yeon’s eyes opened wide.
My heart pounded as if it would jump out.
‘You are different from me.’
The words I heard before passed through my mind like a beam of light.
I finally understood why I looked at him with those eyes at that time.
My heart was still pounding.
Kim Soo-hyun, who had been staring at Kim Soo-yeon for a while, looked forward again.
Yoo Hyeon-ah was still sitting on the floor.
With both arms tightly hugging his body.
“I’ve said this several times: if you want war, we will do it. “If the resentment is so deep that you ignore all of this.”
Ppa deuk deuk-.
There was a grinding noise.
“too bad… … .”
“… … .”
“then… … . Looking at me… … . What should I do… … . It’s… … !”
“… … .”
A series of shouts that continue in a stuttering manner.
Was it that shocking?
These were not words that would come out of the mouth of a monarch.
Kim Soo-hyun sighed inwardly.
Yoo Hyeon-ah’s appearance was one of desperation itself.
It’s so bad that I can’t even look at it.
This is why.
This is why I hated it.
but… … .
‘It wasn’t a wrong choice. There was just a better choice.’
The words of the Zero Code that I heard in the multiverse world felt like they were holding me back.
The path of excluding Yoo Hyeon-ah has already been taken once.
If so, it might be worth taking a different route this time.
Thinking like that, Kim Soo-hyun slowly got down on one knee.
“I’m not asking you to trust me. “I ask you to trust Kim Su-yeon, a user who hates the devil more than anyone else, for once.”
“… … .”
“Didn’t you do that too? I know. What does this alliance mean? How important it is. “I’m sure you have something in mind.”
“… … !”
The sobbing stopped.
“User Yoohyeon.”
At the call, tearful light brown eyes rise and barely look straight at the man.
“The leader of the Northern Alliance is not Jegal Haesol. “The monarch is you, the Holy Queen Yu Hyeon-ah.”
Kim Soo-hyun tilted his upper body and brought his face closer.
Up to a distance where our noses almost touch.
“If you have come this far through the arduous and thorny path, you will definitely be able to do it.”
Looking at the eyes filled with an unexpected seriousness, Yoo Hyeon-ah felt herself shrinking.
It was an unfamiliar tension that I had never felt before.
“With the conviction of one who reigns at the pinnacle of thousands.”
and.
“Close your eyes to the past just this once.”
Close your eyes.
In that split second, Yoo Hyeon-ah almost closed her eyes.
But my half-covered eyelids trembled and I felt conflicted.
As if that couldn’t be possible.
As if it couldn’t continue like this.
It was then.
“… … please.”
It was the moment when the earnest word ‘please’ came out of the man’s mouth for the first time.
The next moment, Yoo Hyeon-ah was unable to overcome something that was pounding in her chest.
“jeon… … .”
slowly.
“I am… … .”
slowly.
I closed my eyes very slowly.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
Finally, the dialogue part, which was assigned the most time, is over.
I thought a lot about how to make it interesting, but I think many readers would have found it boring because the content itself felt so cliché.
Thank you for your patience.
From the next episode, we will pick up the pace quickly.
And I have no intention of making Yoo Hyeon-ah a local agent in this world.
Because you can make it in the original world.(?)
