Chapter 615 – Dragon Raid (13)
The world stops.
He pushes Irina away, and after being hit by her words on her behalf, he slowly falls down.
Whisk!
Irina was the first to approach the helpless fallen man.
She didn’t know.
No, no one except Kim Do-jin knew.
What is the meaning of the dragon that the dragon sent a while ago?
As she placed her hand on his fallen body, she soon found out.
The meaning contained in the saying that he should have suffered.
“My heart… Stopped.”
Death.
Yes, it was death.
What else could it mean for a healthy person’s heart to stop?
“Just now… What did you say?”
Irina answered Angela’s question.
“They said my heart stopped.”
Angela shouted harshly in response to the calm answer.
“What kind of bullshit is that? Why is my heart suddenly pounding…!”
Her words did not last until the end.
There was no need to ask Irina for an explanation because her sharp mind understood the situation.
While I’m barely able to hold on to my spirit that is fading away.
“… Excuse me for a moment.”
Han Joo-yeon approached with hasty steps and lightly pushed Irina, who was crouching down on the snow field and looking down at him blankly, and took her place.
It was just as she said.
“…”
I could feel it without even touching her.
His heart is not beating.
His body, once so strong, is gradually falling apart.
Han Joo-yeon reflexively reaches out to his chest.
“No.”
She spoke firmly and quickly put her weight on her and attempted CPR.
“Absolutely not…!”
There was an indescribable madness in her eyes that weighed down my heart.
The thought that she couldn’t let it go like this filled her head.
“How did I feel when we met again?”
As time passes.
I thought that if we were separated from each other, the longing that touched my heart would naturally fade away.
The fresh love that I had without knowing anything, as time passes, I forget it as if it never happened and say, ‘Ah, that was back then.’ I will be able to laugh it off.
With that firm belief, I left Korea and his side.
It wasn’t.
On the contrary, it was the opposite.
Although the physical distance became greater, his face engraved on my heart became closer.
The overwhelming longing piled up and piled up, casting a large shadow over her face.
The love I harbored without even knowing what it was, swelled endlessly with time and feelings of understanding.
That’s why.
Feeling that things would explode in some way if things continued like this, she gave up living in the United States and returned.
To Korea, to his side.
It wasn’t a trip home with the light thought of just wanting to see her face.
She felt it while talking on the phone with her sister and seeing the two of them standing side by side at an official event.
That their relationship is not what it used to be.
So I decided.
It’s an ugly thought, but if your predictions are correct.
If I were given the opportunity because of that.
If there is a gap between two people that did not exist at all in the past.
Even if I have to throw away everything, I will open the gap to seize that opportunity.
The current relationship was a reward for that determination.
A reward given by God or the devil to a woman who decided to give up everything for love.
At least she thought so.
But you’re going to take him away again?
“It can’t be like that, it doesn’t exist, it doesn’t exist!”
Not even death can separate you and me.
It was time for her to do something of her own.
“Calm down.”
Irina, who had been standing behind her for a moment and watching her afterward, stopped her.
Han Joo-yeon tried to strongly shake off her hand.
But it wasn’t enough.
This is because Irina’s strength was several times higher than that of Han Joo-yeon.
“Let go of this!”
Regardless of her struggles, Irina opened her mouth.
“He is not dead yet.”
“What…?”
Han Joo-yeon stops her struggling movements and looks up at Irina blankly.
Irina answered, pointing to the sword in her hand.
“This guy said that Kim Do-jin is still alive.”
The person who conveyed those opinions to her was none other than ‘Snow Bringer’.
Han Ju-yeon, knowing that her sword contained ego, asked again.
“… Are you sure?”
The voice of the ego in the sword can only be heard by the user.
Irina nodded her head on his behalf.
“It’s certain.”
The sword has no eyes.
Of course, Snow Bringer also judges by feeling rather than seeing.
The sense of energy that developed as a result allowed her to see and feel more than what she could see with her eyes.
One of them is the human soul.
Kim Do-jin’s soul left the body and disappeared somewhere.
I don’t know the exact location, but I can only guess roughly.
I’m wandering somewhere not too far away.
She briefly summarized these details and explained them to others.
“His soul just left his body for a moment.”
Han Joo-yeon’s face turned pale at her words.
“For the soul to leave the body… That’s dangerous!”
Irina shook her head.
“No, it’s not death, it’s voluntary. You can come back as much as you want…”
This was false.
Snow Bringer didn’t say that.
The soul is extremely weak.
To the point of being swept away by a small wind and disappearing.
The body was a prison that prevented their freedom, and at the same time, it was an armor that protected them.
Therefore, the soul cannot survive without the body, and the body cannot exist without the soul.
A soul that loses its body quickly disappears, and the body that the soul escapes from quickly collapses.
So, he must end his wandering as quickly as possible and return to his body.
I definitely said that.
But he did not rebuke her.
Because she knows better than anyone else how she said that.
After putting her lie in her mouth, she went straight to Kim Do-jin and put her hand on his chest to cheer him up.
“But the body without the soul is not intact. So I will freeze it for a while.”
Paddeuk!
The chill emanating from his palm penetrates his body and freezes his heart and other major organs.
On the outside, nothing happened.
The only thing frozen is the inside.
After seeing that all of her bones, muscles, and organs were frozen, she removed her hands.
“This will buy us some time.”
Time has been saved for the body.
Now all that remains is when will he return?
And.
“We have to stop that dragon from destroying this guy’s body.”
Surviving from a dragon that raises a wounded body and continuously exudes murderous intent.
Han Joo-yeon, who was devastated, wakes up.
After a hot night with him, she said, clutching the wand that had now lost its power in her hand.
“I can live.”
No.
“I’ll let you live.”
Him who fell.
And his colleagues.
The moment when a strong desire takes root in the center of the heart.
Coo coo coo… !
The divine power that suddenly erupted from her body spread out without knowing the end and encircled the surroundings.
The form that was eventually formed was a hemispherical, translucent golden curtain.
“Is this…?”
This was her limitation.
It’s something I’ve never thought about or estimated before.
The power that was forcibly opened with a single intention to save Kim Do-jin.
「Evolution Zone.」
A curtain drawn under the sky.
A rapid change begins in the bodies of those under it.
“Hmm…?”
“Mo, my body does what it wants…!”
“Wow…! Wow, magical power is suddenly overflowing!”
Muscles become tougher, and bones become stronger.
The core located at the center of the body absorbs and stores much more magical energy than usual.
Evolution, beyond a temporary increase in strength or speed.
It is her newly acquired power that makes it possible, even if only temporarily.
However, it was not a power that was obtained for free.
In order to use and maintain it, you have to pay a huge price.
The price is none other than her life span.
The age at which one can live is not simply decreasing.
At the price of evolving someone else’s body, her body degenerates.
Permanent decline called aging.
But she didn’t care.
‘But it doesn’t matter.’
If only I could survive that dragon and Kim Do-jin would wake up.
I don’t want to show my age, but if I can save him, I can become a grandmother right now.
Nevertheless, I believe that he will love me.
It was right then.
After losing her virginity, power was transmitted from the wand, which was no better than a piece of wood.
Incredibly pure divine power gradually accumulates within the body.
When her surprised gaze turns to the wand, a faint light flashes several times.
I don’t know why, but I understand what it means.
‘I’ll help you just this once, dirty non-virgin.’
Is it because of the affection we have had?
Or is it because of a woman’s noble spirit of sacrifice for a man?
The reason is unknown.
The important thing is that there is one more card that can be used.
As she gains confidence, she shouts out to her colleagues who are adjusting to her suddenly changed body.
“Everyone, don’t worry about dying, just fight with all your might.”
Because as long as you exist here, you will never die.
Eventually, the final battle that put each other’s future on the line began.
