Changed Body 425

Chapter 425 – Seven Major Arrangements (2)

Saint Sophia carefully examined the condition of Son Seo-yeon, who was lying on a cot installed in the temporary treatment center.

‘The internal injuries are serious.’

Heat boils throughout my body.

Fever blooms, nourished by excessive heat, covering the entire body.

This was a typical symptom of those who used excessive force.

The body cannot withstand the force that exceeds its limits and overheats and breaks down.

Her eyes turn to Han Joo-hee, who stands across from her with a restless expression.

“I need some cooling.”

Before full-scale treatment, the heat filling her body must be driven away.

Ice alone is useless.

To cool down a body that is boiling like a furnace, cold air created through magical power is needed.

“… All right.”

Han Joo-hee nods and carefully draws a magic circle.

An enormous amount of magical power swirls around the magic circle drawn in the air.

However, the result is infinitely shabby compared to the magic attribute expended.

It was something that could not be helped.

Because her water magic was the only weakness that she could not overcome despite her versatility.

“Huh… !”

She replaced that weakness by channeling her vast magical power.

Beads of sweat forming on the forehead.

A sufficient amount of cold gathered in the palm of my hand.

“Come this way.”

Following Sophia’s instructions, she moves the cold air around to cool down the heat that is plaguing her daughter’s body.

Suuuuuw

Every time the thick beads of sweat on Han Joo-hee’s forehead trickle down her smooth cheeks, the heat blooming on Son Seo-yeon’s body withers and disappears one by one.

Pushy… !

Cloudy steam that comes out when heat and cold meet.

Sophia’s hand, confirming that her body temperature has dropped to the normal range, dissuades Han Joo-hee.

“It’s enough now.”
“Ugh, haha… , Ha… ! “Can it be cured now?”

Sophia looks at Joo-hee Han with a sad gaze as she asks, as if pleading, while letting out her heavy breath.

It’s hard to guarantee anything.

Although she succeeded in cooling down her fever quickly, it is impossible to know how damaged her body was until she began proper treatment.

Hasty hope leads to greater despair.

Normally, in times like this, I would have to calmly explain the current situation.

However, she struggled to raise the corners of her mouth and answered in a strong voice.

“Yes. “Now, please leave the rest to me and rest for a while.”

She is a saint.

Because it is her mission and duty to ensure that hope remains hope.

After reassuring Han Joo-hee in a small way, she immediately extends her hand and examines Seo-yeon’s physical condition.

The interior, which had been hidden by the rising heat, finally becomes visible.

“Umm…”

A moan escaping from one’s lips.

The magic circuit, which could not withstand the force exceeding its limit, was severely damaged.

Had it been a little longer to remove the heat, permanent damage would have been done to the circuit.

So, I was very fortunate.

There is nothing she can do after the permanent damage is done, but before that it is different.

Her praise for her, that she will somehow survive as long as she holds on to her breath, is not a lie on her part.

“Haaah… !”

Her dazzling radiance pours out around her body as she begins to use her divine power in earnest.

A golden glow that makes you feel pious just by looking at it.

Son Seo-yeon’s face, which had been distorted by the pain buried within, gradually began to stabilize.

Dark night.

Inside a dark barracks without a single light on.

While I was sitting on the cot and lost in thought, a piece of news arrived.

“Hunter Seoyeon Son’s treatment went well. “The saint asked me to tell her not to worry because she will wake up after a good night’s sleep.”

This was the saint’s consideration.

Seo-yeon remembered that she was a member of my team and even sent her as her personal maid late at night.

Know that I’m worried, and don’t worry anymore.

“Yes, I understand.”

I express my gratitude to the person who delivered the news with a calm expression and tone of voice.

She knew right away that Seoyeon would be fine.

She believed that much.

The power of a saint.

And Seoyeon.

From a young age, she was fed everything that was good for her body.

As if that wasn’t enough, he forced her to undergo a complete transformation using the secret magic she spent many years working on.

I know better than anyone else how outstanding Seoyeon’s physical abilities are, having grown up in that situation.

I know very well that injuries that would be considered serious to an ordinary person are only minor injuries to him.

“Thank god…”

Upon hearing the news that she is okay, her firmly built up faith crumbles, and the anxiety, worry, and fear hidden behind it jump out, saturate her heart, and disappear.

“I’m so glad… !”

Even though I believed and believed, I was so nervous.

This was especially true because she had experienced what it was like to be treated by someone who used her power excessively.

I wonder what Seoyeon will do if she becomes like me.

All of my worries were dispelled and I felt immensely relieved.

Plap!

The anger that was suppressed beneath the feeling of worry begins to spread like wildfire.

“… Lu Bu.”

I did not overlook its existence.

In fact, I paid more attention to it.

So I was confident.

The moment the surprise attack is completely successful, it will not appear on the battlefield.

They are in a transactional relationship.

Because I know that the relationship is not deep enough to show up and save the battlefield when defeat is in full swing.

That prediction was definitely not wrong.

In fact, even though he came close, he didn’t show up on the battlefield and went back.

However, if there is one thing overlooked.

“… “I never thought they would attack me like that.”

It was a spear that came from over 300 meters away.

The spear that flew such a long distance broke through the barrier surrounding the upper floor and aimed at my heart.

Is this even possible?

“You monster.”

I realized this clearly through this one move.

I was looking too low on the limitations of the human being called Lu Bu.

Clearly, in my calculations, Lu Bu was also a monster among monsters.

However, he was just more of a monster than that.

At the same time, the country realizes human limitations.

“… “It needs to be expanded further.”

I am a beomjae

All he had was venom and sincerity.

S-class hunter Son Si-woo has just one more thing.

It’s just an experience.

Being able to remain calm in the face of death and predicting the opponent’s movements.

It all comes from that experience.

Develop a plan to confront the enemy in front of you based on the behavior of similar enemies you fought in the past.

And it has a high probability of being correct.

It was certainly a great weapon, but its shortcomings were also clear.

I have no power in the face of actions that are outside the scope of my imagination or experience.

Of course, the Jjambap that I have been eating for over 20 years does not turn into a blank slate and disappear, so I tend to overcome some crises without difficulty, but Yeo-po is an opponent who is far beyond a certain level.

He is a monster that stands outside the scope of my thoughts.

To deal with such a monster, you have to destroy it.

We need to change this thinking, which is still unable to break out of the mold of a normal person who has tried hard.

Otherwise, things like this will happen again and again, and I or someone on my behalf will get hurt frequently.

“… Revenge comes next.”

I feel like I want to go see that guy right away and cut off his arrogant face with a knife.

But you have to be patient.

Until my limitations, which remain in the world, gain freedom to fit this body.

And until my power works on him.

“Whoa.”

I exhale calmly, get up, and leave the barracks.

At that moment, I see Juyeon’s face across from me, as if he was coming towards me.

“Where? If you’re going to Seoyeon…”
“No.”

Juyeon, who speaks with a worried expression, is cut off.

I know.

If I went to Seo-yeon now, I wouldn’t even be able to see her face and would just end up fighting with Han Joo-hee.

It’s better to avoid this area first than to look like that in front of a child who is sleeping in pain.

“Unless you go to Seoyeon… “Where are you going at this time of night?”

He answers her question with her expression of doubt.

“I want to relieve stress and do some doodling.”

Then, the puzzlement on Juyeon’s face becomes even deeper.

“Doodle… ? “Where are you at this time of night?”

Well.

Where is it?

“Hehe… , I’ll come back.”
“Ah… !”

Instead of answering, she seemed to sense something strange from the laughter she gave, and soared into the sky to avoid Juyeon reaching out for her hand.

I’ll be back soon!

* * *

As time passes and her eyes stabilize, she turns to her daughter.

After finishing Sophia’s treatment, she touches her surprised heart as she sees her sleeping soundly with a peaceful face.

‘Thank god.’

I can’t erase the shocking scene from my mind.

The sight of my daughter running next to her, holding the large shield of her colleague.

There was a moment when even she collapsed helplessly after blocking an attack that made her bones tremble.

At the same time, Kim Do-jin’s face as he hugged his daughter.

“Kim Do-jin…”

In the end, that naked bastard ended up being punished.

If he hadn’t been so outspoken without knowing the subject, he wouldn’t have been the target of Lu Bu’s attack, and my daughter wouldn’t have had to face a crisis trying to stop him.

He obviously knew that too.

So, he couldn’t control his anger at the moment and didn’t even dodge the thrown sword.

Through this, I found out for sure.

‘I can’t let Seoyeon stay by her side any longer.’

That the distance between two people should be as wide as possible.

For now, I plan to visit as soon as the sun rises and talk.

He must have also learned something through this incident.

If he still doesn’t move away from his daughter… , I plan to do anything at that time.

Literally anything.

Rather than using lukewarm measures like now, we will use all the coercive means we can.

Even if he dies in the process.

By the time her eyes were filled with sad emotions.

Son Seo-yeon’s hand was wrapped around the back of Han Ju-hee’s hand.

She was startled by this and lowered her head.

Son Seo-yeon, who had been sleeping as if dead just a moment ago, lifts her eyes and lifts her lips with difficulty.

“Summer solstice… Mind.”

She was embarrassed.

“H-don’t do it, what on earth…” .”
“To Dojin… , Don’t harm me…”
“Seoyeon, you… ?”

What awakened her spirit was none other than the name that came out of Han Joo-hee’s mouth.

Kim Do-jin.

The three letters of that name awakened her spirit from a deep sleep.

When Han Joo-hee, who noticed this, was in shock and only opened her mouth.

“Dojin… , You are a precious person to me…”

The next word cut off the reason she was barely able to maintain.
