Episode 202 Two People’s Heart (2)
Quaang!
The expression of the two people hardened at the sound of an explosion that came from the middle of the aquarium.
After the fleeting moment has stopped.
Jaehyun heard two hearts beating nearby.
It was because, in the aftermath of the binge drinking a moment ago, he had pulled Seo Ina closer without even realizing it.
Thanks to that, the two almost became hugging each other.
Jaehyun looked at Ina Seo, who was looking up at him with her tiptoe raised.
For some reason, her eyes were a little groggy.
“......Sorry. Let’s talk later.”
After saying that, Jaehyun tried to let go of her shoulder.
But that was then.
“......Is this my misunderstanding?”
Seo In-na said as she held onto Jae-hyun’s back as she tried to push her away.
Her voice, which had always been resolute, began to tremble.
“......tell me.”
Seo Eana was asking the reason for her actions.
Why did he hold her without realizing it at the moment when he thought he was in danger?
Is there any other meaning here?
Seo Ina was asking that.
Jaehyun shook his head.
“It’s an illusion.”
“......The magical power of the monsters nearby is only C-class. I wouldn’t have thought I’d get hit like that.”
“Inaya.”
“......I said we’d talk later.”
After Seo In-na said that, she meekly left Jae-hyeon’s arms.
A single tear flowed down her cheek.
“Then your answer will change.”
After spitting out the words, Seo Ina started walking somewhere as if she was relieved.
As Jaehyun stood there blankly, she turned around and asked.
“......Weren’t you going to kill the monsters?”
“......okay. let’s go.”
Jaehyun decided to postpone the story a little longer.
The present Seo In-na that he saw was obviously concentrated somewhere.
I didn’t want to provoke any more.
That’s enough for now.
Jaehyun thought so and followed her.
after a while like that.
The place where the two arrived after tracking the beast had already been cleared by another radar.
Could it be the radar of the Japanese coalition that was patrolling?
It was when Jaehyun thought so.
Greung!
A familiar cry came from somewhere.
Jaehyun lifted his head and looked up at the sound.
At the same time, a heavy, familiar, rough feeling obscured the view.
“......Papi? Why are you here?”
Jaehyun tilted his head as if it was strange.
‘I entrusted Papi to Kim Yoo-jung a while ago... the fact that he is here.’
He cast his gaze forward.
It was the direction Poppy flew from. Then another familiar face came into Jaehyun’s eyes.
I heard the voice of a girl in front of me who seemed to be embarrassed.
“......Kim Yoo-jung?”
Seo In-na’s eyes, looking at Jae-hyun tilting her head, also turned to Kim Yoo-jung.
Complex emotions lingered on Seo Eana’s expression as she watched the two of them.
‘......Why is Yujeong here?’
When we were talking about the schedule yesterday. Kim Yoo-jung clearly said to herself.
[Second day? We wanted to explore the nearby market or some more. There are many that look delicious.]
I’m sure she said that, but why is she here?
At that moment, only one thought came to Seo Ina’s mind clearly.
There is Kim Yoo-jung at the aquarium where he and Jae-hyun decided to come together.
she was sure
That it was no coincidence that I met Kim Yoo-jung here.
Jaehyun prepared a small bag to take Poppy to her destination unnoticed.
It was a crossbody bag, but it was just the right size for Poppy to fit inside when worn over the shoulder.
Sniff.......
Poppy seemed a little stuffy, but he couldn’t help it.
If he gets noticed by others, the capture of Lake Chuzenji will be disrupted. Because Jaehyun was planning to hide his identity this time too.
‘I put off annoying things a little later.’
Jaehyun thought of wearing a black robe once again today.
Whoo!
As the surrounding buildings quickly moved away, Jaehyun’s drowsy mood improved a little.
The conversation with Seo Ina feels like a blockage somewhere has been pierced.
Not too long ago.
Jaehyun was able to reach his destination.
Near Lake Chuzenji, Nikko. This is the place where the boss monster that needs to be attacked for Papi’s growth is sleeping.
When Jaehyun arrived, he looked at the sentry guarding the neighborhood for a while.
“I have to break through the sentries again.”
As in the past, a sentry was guarding the area. The monster inside sleeps an S-class boss monster that has little to no precedent in the world.
Thanks to this, even those who guard the place are only outstanding talents who reach A-class.
Jaehyun cautiously approached them.
And then.
―Activate the active skill 《Brainwashing》.
I subdued them using the surest method.
Now, there is no way for normal raiders to resist the magic of reappearance.
He has attained a status and has already become a half-god.
There is still a level to be opened, but it means that the current achievement alone is that much.
Poppy is looking around with her head sticking out of her bag.
After passing through a nearby barbed wire and a huge iron gate that has been magically treated, the two set foot inside the lake.
Eventually, the lake appeared with white mist.
Eight gigantic whirling vortices greeted Jaehyun.
“It’s just like I’ve seen before. This must be something you eat almost every day?”
It was larger than expected, and it was difficult to see an inch ahead because of the fog, but Jaehyun wasn’t worried.
He smiled and lightly energized his legs.
Tsutsutsut......!
Fragments of pulsating magic began to dwell in Jaehyun’s body, and soon it was filled with life.
Not stopping there, Jaehyun took a step towards the lake.
Chambang.
Along with it, the ripples on the surface of the water calmly rise.
“Success.”
Jaehyun’s eyebrows went up.
He was now standing on his own two feet in the lake.
This is the stone he used earlier. It was the power of the essence of the sea.
Then, without hesitation, he took a bunch of things from his inventory and started pouring them slowly into the vortex.
It was a liquid with a strong scent.
‘This closed city is a little special compared to other places. To be precise, the shape of the monster that appears is unique.’
Jaehyun thought so and continued pouring alcohol into each whirlpool.
He didn’t forget to stop Poppy from taking a sip.
Jaehyun continued thinking.
‘Basically, there are three types of monsters.’
The first is demonic beasts from beyond the gate that appear in dungeons and closed cities.
The second is called natural monsters, and they were created through mutation, such as the moonlight fireflies in the past.
The third is a new type of monsters born from the people’s thoughts and the indigenous myths of each country dwelling in the powerful magic that Jaehyun will deal with from now on.
and.
This is the newly born Demonic Beast based on Japan’s indigenous mythology.
“A snake or dragon with eight tails and eight heads, described in Japanese mythology.”
Ssss...
The fog deepens further.
Jaehyun poured all the remaining alcohol into the lake and waited for a while.
It was a small surprise for the monsters he had to deal with here from now on.
Chow ah!
At that moment, something rose from the floor and created a huge current.
A boss monster boasting a huge body as if it could swallow a mountain.
A lump of magical power imbued with the fear and thoughts of the Japanese people looked at the reappearance.
―The field boss monster 《Yamatano Orochi》 is watching you.
