Chapter 179 – Chapter 179
“Master… Please, please. Minwoo… Please…”
“Shall we listen to the story first?”
I have already made up my mind to kill Chae Min-woo.
But it didn’t make a big difference.
Because there are still things I want to hear.
“As I said earlier…”
“So-eun, be quiet. What I want to hear is Chae Min-woo’s excuse.”
“…”
As if there was nothing I could do about my remark, Chae-eun closed his mouth tightly and wept.
Chae Min-woo, who is in her arms, seems to lose his mind at any moment.
Are the chapped lips the result of a large amount of blood loss?
I don’t think it’s been that long since I cut off his leg, but I’m afraid he’ll die of his own will if he doesn’t hurry up.
“Tell me. How it happened, in detail.”
“… Sorry.”
His eyes are out of focus, like someone who gave up everything.
When Nana Lee Dong-geul activates the Absolute Realm skill, Chae Min-woo is able to regain his original form.
The amputated legs will be restored to their original state.
Chae Min-woo is well aware of this fact.
But the reason why he doesn’t readily ask is because he knows that he doesn’t even have the shame.
It was now that I had really given up on everything.
Chae Min-woo started talking in a low voice as if everyone was dying.
“From the beginning… I didn’t mean to do this… Even if you don’t believe me, this is sincere. I’m sorry… My heart was shaken when I heard Na Hyun-hee tell her story. No, I’ve been worried until today… Until my brother injured his right arm…”
“Hmm… Does that mean that you have been thinking about the proposal you received from Na Hyun-hee until today? Then, when you saw that I was injured a moment ago, you changed your mind to stand on the other side like a bat?”
“… Sorry.”
I’m sorry right now is a positive meaning, right?
Damn you bastard bat.
“Why are you worried?”
“I… We’ve definitely changed. From when we followed his orders.”
“What? What kind of bullshit is that? Then why did you go over there again?”
“It’s not about passing… It’s not… It’s just… Survival instinct…”
“Ah! So if I die, you guys will all die too, so you cut me off, right?”
“That’s right…”
He said that he didn’t turn around because he liked the bastard…
That doesn’t mean that the fact of betrayal disappears.
Of course, I never trusted him 100 percent, and I was always suspicious, so I wasn’t disappointed or hurt.
But you can’t forgive me for that, can you?
“Then how about now? Did you feel like you were hooked when you saw me move normally as soon as you hit me in the back of the head with your tattered arm?”
“… I fully knew that you were strong. That you still have more hidden abilities… I didn’t expect you to be able to use Park Yu-ri’s ability already…”
Did you realize that I was borrowing other people’s abilities?
Well… They always moved together near me, so if you’re not an idiot you’d have noticed.
For example, both Chae Min-woo and Chae-eun know that I can use the absolute realm as well as I can.
I’ve never used it in front of Na Hyun-hee, but I must have noticed it because I spent a long time in the dungeon that year.
You’ve seen me using the same skill as Kim Isol, so even if you’re not a veteran Awakener, it’s worth doubting that you’ll borrow Lee Dong-geul’s ability as well.
Besides, that bastard has the same abilities as mine, so he must have expected this from a long time ago.
“Why, when you received such a proposal from Na Hyun-hee, didn’t you tell me right away from the beginning? What did you hear from that crazy bitch specifically?”
“… The first time I heard the proposal… Was on the 3rd day. The day I found the raid and Yuri Park in the dungeon…”
Fuck.
Is it the time when you had a relationship with Park Yu-ri and dealt with the fucking monster eyes?
I was aiming for the timing when I was away.
Damn auntie
“So?”
“It wasn’t conciliatory from the beginning. Slowly he persuaded us… He said he understood, and said he was being threatened by him… Her husband was being held.”
What.
Is that what you said to me too?
It doesn’t matter if it’s real or fake, but…
Together with my colleagues, I quietly listened to the story of Minwoo Cha, who seemed like he was about to die.
To summarize the content, I am strong, but the ability and power that this guy has is that I can’t compare.
He understands that he has no choice but to live a life of slavery under me, but he suggested that if the opportunity arises, why don’t we stab him in the back.
The reason why he didn’t tell me right away was because his top priority was the safety of himself and his sister.
Well… In fact, I was forced to live as a slave under my own power.
I never expected loyalty.
“Well, it’s not that I don’t understand your position, but I also have my own position, and it’s also a fact that your colleagues were in danger because of your betrayal. Because I didn’t mean to simply play with the cow. No, the dog who doesn’t follow the owner’s order… No, the dog who bit the owner should be euthanized. You’re not in the position of a pet dog or a companion dog, are you?”
Chae-eun is still silently hugging her younger brother.
Her tears drip down
This time, it was Chae Min-woo who opened his mouth with a dying voice.
“Please… I’m fine… But as for my sister… Please forgive me. My sister has persuaded me many times. Don’t betray my brother… Please, please.”
“Ha…”
I had no intention of killing vegetables.
Judging from her actions so far, she has never made any suspicious movements.
Chae Min-woo You can tell just by looking at his attitude that it was an arbitrary act.
But the two are siblings.
It’s hard to imagine that this bitch’s attitude would be the same even after I killed her brother.
Rather, if you act like that, that’s more creepy.
Chae Min-woo, who had this experience, will never betray me again.
The time for me to be influenced by doing that in the first place has already passed.
‘Cause I’m that strong
However, will you forgive me for that?
I’m not a huga cub …
But that doesn’t mean he’s a killer who kills everyone.
Too many people’s lives have been taken today.
They would become enemies if left alive, so they all ended their lives, but the mental wear and tear was quite large.
Should I kill Minwoo Chae right here… In front of my sister?
From my point of view now, Chae Min-woo’s life is less than a bug…
While I am in agony, Chae Min-woo’s life is almost dying out.
You have to make a decision slowly.
“Vegetables. What do you want me to do?”
“Master… I beg you. Save Minwoo… I never meant to deceive you. To protect me…”
She started weeping.
It was the women who responded.
“Why don’t you just save me? If you have the round letter ability, you can turn your legs back to normal. I think it’s enough to say that you won’t return your mana again… As.”
“That’s right. What do you call betrayal? Because wanting to live is something like instinct. As a result, we haven’t avoided anything. We’ve heard enough…”
This is the opinion of senior and Hong Eun-young.
It does not appear that the remark was made in response to Chae Eun’s tears emotionally.
It was as if he just didn’t want people to die anymore.
Everyone did.
Even for Awoken who are accustomed to going in and out of dungeons and seeing others die in front of them, it is mentally difficult to see someone you know die.
It would have been easier to kill him if it had happened earlier, when his desire for revenge for betrayal had flared up.
I got really annoyed.
Eventually, I activated Absolute Realm.
He returned Chae Min-woo’s body to its original state.
Even left his magic power to be S-10.
“Why…”
“Thank you. Thank you very much, Master. This grace for the rest of my life…”
Chae Min-woo looked up at me with surprised eyes.
The vegetables that bowed their heads and thanked me over and over again.
And my colleagues who are barking at me as if they are satisfied with my choice.
“Good job.”
“As expected, Kang Jeong-hyuk. I like you because of this!”
“Whew… I’m glad.”
“…”
Everyone thinks I’ve shown mercy.
But the reality is a bit different.
“If the same thing happens again, then, for whatever reason, it will be like that.”
He pointed to the bodies of Cha Eun-il and Na Hyun-hee, who remained right next to him.
Chae Min-woo glanced over there and immediately knelt down on his knees and bowed his head.
“Of course! I will never forget this grace and return it for the rest of my life. I was foolish. Thank you very much.”
“Thank you… Thank you very much, Master…”
“Stop. There’s still work to be done. Don’t take up any more of my time.”
These two won’t betray me anymore.
Of course, it’s not that I’m sure, and I don’t trust the two either.
But that’s how things turned out.
Rather than thinking you’ve been forgiven, I’d rather you think of your life as something you owe…
Because that’s what I bet
Isn’t this situation the perfect situation to owe grace?
I bet on this situation right now.
Two words that you can use in any way.
I decided it was an opportunity to get the word transcendent.
“Can I trust you two?”
“I will prove it with my actions from now on. Risking my life…”
“Even if I lose my own life, this grace…”
“There’s nothing that will cost you your life. I’ve been with you two for the past two weeks and I’ve heard a lot about it. Please don’t betray me.”
The siblings shed tears.
The way you look at me is unreasonable.
An inside laugh bursts out.
Do you know how I will use you guys in the future?
On the inside, he is thinking about something else, and on the outside he is pretending to be gracious.
Am I too bitter?
