Side Story 85) Unidentified in the Fog (2)
“…”
“…”
‘I notice it.’
The silence, as if the sound had disappeared, was awkward and unfamiliar, so I tried to joke, but I couldn’t. Jina’s complexion, sitting in the passenger seat, was so dark that even if it was me, I couldn’t possibly joke about it.
When I was spending time alone in the Sanctuary president’s office, I received a phone call from Uncle Chris.
It was an urgent call that my parents were in danger.
Even her daughter, Gina, did not know where her parents were. The only person who knew was Uncle Chris, who had been the butler for a long time in the Yu family. Uncle Chris sometimes jokes around, but he wasn’t one to joke about things like this.
Anyway, right now I’m driving the car with Gina on my way to my parents’ house.
If you use [Bifrost], A psychic ability that allows you to move anywhere, you could go to your home in the blink of an eye, but I didn’t do that on purpose.
This is because as soon as Uncle Chris heard the news that her parents were in danger, her Gina’s condition deteriorated rapidly. How to say… Should I say her mental breakdown?
In this state, she would not be able to grasp the situation properly even if she arrived at her parents’ house quickly. So I was driving the car like this in the sense that I should come to my senses.
“Haa… I really can’t live.”
At that time, she seemed to have recovered her mentality and sighed.
“Suddenly, I left all my burdens to my daughter, and the two of us disappeared together… Suddenly became dangerous? Haa… I really can’t live.”
‘Looks like he hasn’t fully recovered his mental state yet.’
Seeing as he sighed and repeated what he had said, it seemed that he had not fully recovered his mentality yet. Still, I was relieved to see that his eyes had returned to some extent.
“Didn’t I tell you where you were going?”
“Yeah. It was all about sending pictures once a year. I’m going on her second honeymoon anyway.”
“Before I disappeared and now, it seems that the good things are still the same.”
To be honest, it was even more strange that there was no late child between the two.
Both of them are actually 53 years old, but their face value is really high, so they were in their early 30s. The body age was also quite young, because the two had high-level psychic powers.
It was surprising that even though he was so good at goldsmithing, he had only one child.
“Let’s go in.”
“Huh.”
Arriving at the home of the Yu family, I went inside with Gina.
“Are you here, lady? And… Long time no see, Master Tony.”
As soon as we went inside, Uncle Chris greeted us. He bowed his head to Gina and looked at me with her thrilled eyes.
I consumed the power of chaos and changed my name to Tony Styx in people’s memories, so Uncle Chris also called me Tony.
“Yes, it’s been a while. How are you?”
“Yes. I’ve been fine. Rather, come this way. I have something to show you.”
Uncle Chris took me and Gina to his room. Entering the room, he took out some of the books on the bookshelf, changed their position, and put them back.
Rumbling-
Then, the bookshelf opened by itself.
“Come in.”
He guided us to that secret space.
Inside, dozens of monitors were projecting different locations. Some illuminated the forest, others the seashore.
“Sah, uncle… What is all this?”
I didn’t even know that there was a secret room. And it was the same for me too. I looked at him and waited for him to answer.
Then Uncle Chris nodded and opened his mouth.
“This is an island not far from Dark City. It is an uninhabited island that the family head purchased three years ago when he handed over the Sanctuary company to the Lady Gina. After that, the retired family head lived here with his wife. “
“…”
“The head of the household retired because he wanted to rest in peace now… But in fact, there are other reasons for the head of the family to retire.”
“Some other reason…?”
“Yes. Since the day of the end three years ago, the head of the family has had a problem.”
“Something’s wrong? What the hell happened to Daddy?”
“It became difficult to control your psychic powers. The house was often covered in fog. After a while in that state, you were able to control your psychic powers again… But that wasn’t the only problem.”
“Again, what other problems do you have?”
“… Unidentified monsters emerged from the fog. So some of the servants working in the mansion lost their lives.”
“Ahhh…”
“Gina…”
As she stumbled past her, I hurriedly reached out to her and supported her. The paleness of her skin was a shock.
‘Is there something wrong with your body?’
I was equally shocked. Bal Ji-woon, no, Yoo Ji-woon and I were definitely father and son, even though they were not related by blood.
‘Damn… I should have checked at least once.’
If I had been with him even once since I came back, I would have noticed immediately that something was wrong with his body. And it would have solved the problem he was having too.
But he had already left for the island with his mother when I returned. Since the two of them have strong psychic powers, I thought they would get along just fine… But that wasn’t the case.
‘Three years ago…’
I had no idea what was wrong with him.
My father Yu Ji-wun had in the past taken some of Cthulhu’s cells, which I dubbed a fake symbiote. When I fully regained my powers as a chaotic giant, I had processed all the cells of Cthulhu in people’s bodies, but it seemed that the side effects were still there.
‘I should have handled it properly then… I was too complacent.’
But it was fine.
If only the two of them are safe, they can correct the mistakes of the past.
“Would you like to see this?”
Uncle Chris, who took turns watching us, pointed to the monitor. Unlike the monitors that were clearly illuminating other areas, the monitors he pointed to were blurry.
“Has your father lost control of his psychic powers again?”
“That’s right.”
I immediately recognized that it was fog. I asked Uncle Chris on behalf of Gina, who was shocked and distraught.
“Has this happened since your parents entered the island?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm… Then that means it’s different than usual this time.”
This happened often, but if he had contacted Gina this time, it must have meant that something out of the ordinary had happened.
“That’s right. If you look here…”
Uncle Chris pointed to the monitor again. I could see the fog getting thicker.
“The mist is growing. Isn’t it like this at other times?”
“Yes. A large amount of fog occurs in an instant, but there has never been a case where the fog has increased like now.
“Hmm… OK. Can you tell me where the island is? I guess I’ll have to go there myself.”
“Do you mean the young master himself? First of all, the staff are preparing to go to the island, so you can watch it…”
“Uncle.”
“Your son.”
“Wouldn’t I have to go there to make sure things were taken care of? Even my uncle… Already guessed that I was special.”
“… I’ll prepare the chopper.”
“No. There’s no need for that. Just tell me the location. It’s urgent, right?”
“… All right.”
I smiled and then Uncle Chris nodded and told me where his parents were on the island. I checked the location by looking at the map and prepared to go there immediately.
“I-I’ll go with you, oppa!”
Then, Gina held my hand.
“I’ll bring you over, so you’re resting here. It won’t be long.”
“Same go.”
“…”
Gina begged earnestly with tears in her eyes.
“Please. I’m begging you.”
“…Okay, let’s go together.”
I, weak against women’s tears, couldn’t refuse Jina’s request. She hugged her and used her [Her bifrost] Her psychic powers.
*****
Because it is an uninhabited island, the island is very quiet.
There was a road between the bushes, and animals were jumping between the bushes and the road. Seagulls flew in the sky.
It felt like my heart was purified just by looking at it.
‘Should I live on an island too? I’ll build a villa there and stay with my family.’
It even made me want to buy an island. If it weren’t for my parents’ problems, I would have enjoyed natural sex with Gina.
‘By the way…’
“Oh, brother…”
“Huh.”
I could feel Gina’s hand shaking mine. It was because I could see the fog that I saw on the monitor from afar. The hazy fog was rapidly expanding its territory, probably intending to swallow the island.
“Shall we go?”
“… Huh.”
“Don’t worry. Both of you will be fine.”
“I see? You two are all right, right?”
“Sure. And I came. What are you worried about?”
“… That’s right. You don’t have to worry because you have a brother. Yes. That’s right.”
Gina smiled as if my words were comforting. Not only that, but the trembling of the hands has also decreased.
“Let’s go see our parents after a long time.”
“Huh.”
Nan took Jina and headed to her misty place.
*****
“Ummm…”
Looking at the fog that gradually expanded its area, a silent sound came out. It was certainly no ordinary fog.
‘Does clairvoyance not work?’
I tried to see what was going on inside the fog by using clairvoyant psychic powers. But I couldn’t see inside, as if I was resisting my psychic powers.
‘Then…’
This time, he used wind-type psychic powers. It was an intention to blow away the entire fog.
‘How are you? Doesn’t this work too?’
The wind blew strong enough to blow my hair, but the fog did not budge like a solid.
‘Let’s try this?’
Seeing the fog that hadn’t changed even after using his psychic powers twice, the swelling began to rise.
“Brother, what’s wrong? Maybe… Is something wrong?”
As I frowned, Gina looked at me worriedly. I was worried that something might happen to my parents.
“Oh, it’s not like that, the fog is bothering me. Jina, would you like to step back for a while?”
“Huh? Ah, yeah…”
While reassuring Jina, I bit her back and used my wind-type superpowers again, even using chaos.
‘Disappear.’
Whii-i-i-!
The mist began to dissipate in the wind, like paper on fire. Rather than being blown away by the wind, it literally disappeared.
“Ah…”
Then, what I saw was a huge mansion. In case someone wasn’t the former president of Sanctuary, the two of them lived together and built a really grand mansion.
‘Did you close all the doors?’
The fog that surrounded the mansion disappeared, but the fog that filled the inside of the mansion remained intact. I tilted her head and looked at Gina.
“I’m going inside now, keep your distance now, okay? Oh, no. Just hold my hand.”
“Huh.”
At my words, he came over and took my hand. It was a small hand that fits in my big hand.
“Then now listen… Huh?”
It was the moment I was about to enter the mansion with Gina. Suddenly, the fog that had filled the inside of the mansion burst out. Of course, Gina and I were trapped in the fog.
“Oh, brother, why are you doing this?”
“… Look at this?”
Even after using the power of chaos, the fog increased again. This meant that the fog resisted the power of chaos, which could be said to be the power of God.
That means…
‘Are you in the same class as me?’
I could see that a divine being who could be compared to me, the giant of chaos, was creating this fog.
“Come on.”
“Yes…”
Originally, I only wanted to hold hands, but I couldn’t move so defenselessly as long as I felt it wasn’t normal fog. I held her tightly in my arms.
Then he and Gina went inside the mansion where her parents would be staying.
Booooong-!
As if welcoming them into the fog, a boat horn rang out.
