Chapter 342 – #343 Was My Friend’s Name
#343 was my friend’s name
[Ah… That hurts. I really thought I was going to die.]
“?!”
The memory hunter, who was about to close his eyes, opened his eyes at the voice of the Shadow Killer. In front of him was the Shadow Killer, who was slowly regenerating his body from his head.
The dismembered body was still there, wriggling and rolling on the floor.
“Ha, haha, haha… Damn you monster.”
[Really amazing memory hunter. I didn’t know that the four cat bugs could do this much. I was really surprised.]
The Shadow Killer, which had finished regenerating, crawled in front of the Memory Hunter.
[I apologize. I underestimated you After all, you’re also one of the S-class heroes. Hmm… I’m so sorry I can’t do this. I should give you a present.]
Noob noob-
The two cheeks of the Shadow Killer began to wriggle. Before long, a new face popped out of the spot where his cheek had been.
“…!”
Seeing the face attached to the Shadow Killer’s cheek, the memory hunter widened his eyes.
What he showed as a gift was none other than the faces of the memory hunter’s wife and daughter who died at his hands.
“You son of a bitch!!!!!!”
[On the last way, seeing the faces of my wife and daughter, are you satisfied? Kick Kick Kick!]
Gulp-!
The Shadow Killer swallowed the Memory Hunter whole.
[… Hmm?]
The Shadow Killer didn’t know.
[That…]
The last weapon that the memory hunters had prepared after strangling and strangling the steel armor remained.
[Eh eh?!?!?!?!?!?!]
The Shadow Killer’s body began to melt rapidly. His body melted and regenerated repeatedly.
The flesh melted to the extent that the white bones were exposed, and the flesh quickly rose again.
Pew-!
The eyeball exploded gushing blood, but immediately regenerated.
Melted and regenerated.
[Kiehehehehehe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
The Shadow Killer struggled in pain as his body melted infinitely. The ground shook as if there had been an earthquake, and the outer walls of the factory collapsed.
Still, the pain didn’t stop.
Took-
“…”
The stomach melted and the Memory Hunter fell to the floor, eaten by the Shadow Killer. As if dead, he closed his eyes and didn’t move.
[Geeeee!]
“Ugh! Captain, that’s so gross.”
“I know.”
Zero and Nine stared at Shadow Killer writhing in pain. When blood splattered towards them, they waved his hand and hit the air to evaporate his blood.
“But what should I do now, Captain? I don’t think I can talk to that worm.”
“Hmm. Just go.”
“Really? Just go.”
“After all, do you do more than dig like a bug? And it’s better because you don’t have to give him a stake.”
“Then what if he survives?”
“At that time, we can continue the business relationship again.”
“Ahang! The captain is a genius!”
“Yes, yes.”
“Ah! And the captain is pervert!”
“Yes, yes.”
Zero put his arm around Nine’s shoulder and left the factory first, leaving behind the painful Shadow Killer who caressed her breasts.
[Turn it off… Damn you bastard…]
As if he had adapted to the pain, the Shadow Killer’s groans gradually diminished. It was the first time in his life that he had experienced such terrible pain, and he looked uncharacteristically ugly.
Even now, the pain was much greater than when Steel Armor ripped her body in half.
[What the hell did you do?]
He had no idea what the memory hunter was doing the moment he was eaten. Besides, the important thing now wasn’t what the memory hunters did.
[… Aaaaa! Damn it! Aaaaa!!!!!!]
The Shadow Killer screamed again.
This time it wasn’t that I was screaming in pain. It was because there was a setback in the plan that was going smoothly.
The pain was much less than the first time, but his body was still melting and regenerating repeatedly.
As the regeneration was repeated, the energy stored in the body was rapidly consumed, and the density of the body also gradually weakened.
With a body like this, he could never deal with the steel armor, which was sure to become an obstacle in the future.
That is, he either had to find a way to augment his body, or he had to find a new one, just like he took Dr. Crumola’s body.
Either way, it was cumbersome and time-consuming.
[Memory Hunter…!]
The enraged Shadow Killer led his melting body and approached the Memory Hunter, who was lying dead.
I wanted to repay this pain and anger by tearing the body apart.
But he didn’t even have a chance to do that.
“Hey~ Memory hunter~ Eat-and-run shack~ Are you here~”
[…!]
The shadow killer widened his eyes at the voice coming from outside the factory.
How can I forget that voice? He was the first person to make me feel fear.
Sensing that Steel Armor was approaching this way, Shadow Killer immediately turned around. He was trying to escape to his den prepared in the basement of an abandoned factory.
The underground den was connected to the Shadow Killer’s hideout in other districts.
Shortly after the Shadow Killer disappeared, Steel Armor entered the factory.
*****
“Oh, what is this all about? Has there been a war?”
Wandering around Area 27, I heard a distant explosion and followed the sound to this place.
I wondered if there might be a clue to the meaning of the message ’27’ sent to me by the memory hunter.
‘Is there a sign that something has exploded?’
After confirming that the inside of the factory was in disarray, I could tell that the explosion I had heard earlier started here.
“But according to common sense, there could be a memory hunter here…?”
As I looked around, I saw someone lying down. As I got closer and checked his face, I knew he was the damn guy who led me here.
“You’re there? Dumma! Get up, you bastard! It’s not enough that I sent you a fucking text like that to make you come this far, so you’re sleeping? Wake up quickly!”
“…”
“It’s no use pretending to be asleep. Wake up quickly.
“…”
“If you don’t wake up on the count of three, you’ll fall behind me? One, two, three…”
“…”
“… A memory hunter?”
I yelled at his ear and pinched his cheek, but the memory hunter didn’t budge.
It felt like my heart was sinking. I could no longer ignore the anxiety I had been trying to ignore.
“Uh, uh. Uh, this chew! What should I do? Oh fuck it! Hey! My mind! Memory hunter!
Once upon a time, I heard that if someone is lying on the floor, you shouldn’t touch them carelessly. That’s why I couldn’t put my hands on the memory hunter.
“Yeah! 119! How many 119’s? Uh… Oh, fuck! Wake up, you asshole! I’m a healer! I can save you!”
He reached out to the memory hunter and used his healing skills. A warm green light emanated from my hand and penetrated his body.
“Ugh, ugh… Cool!”
“Oh oh oh! Oh fuck god! I thought this chewy was behind! I thought it was fucked! Oh my god!”
After pouring 800 HP (Heal Points), the memory hunter came to his senses with a dry cough. Seeing him come to his senses, I unknowingly found a god I didn’t even believe in.
There must be a reason why you shout Holy Shack! Or Oh My God! In the fucking movies. It just automatically pops out.
“Hey. Are you out of your mind?”
“Umm… Steel… Armor?”
“Oh yes, it’s me. You bastard. You’re scaring people. Why are you asking me to sleep here?”
“Haha…”
“… Uh?”
I, who was smiling, hardened.
Why… Is the memory hunter’s eyes getting darker? Why does it light up the world for the last time and fade away like a dying candle?
The uneasiness that gripped my heart was not yet over.
“… Hey. Wake up. Don’t close your eyes. Breathe. I-I’ll treat you right away. I’m a doctor. I’m a wild doctor without a license, but I’m really good at saving people. So, open your eyes straight. Breathe slowly. Hold it. “I’ll save you soon…”
“Steel… Armor…”
“Uh, I’m here. So don’t talk. If you talk, you’ll lose your strength. Don’t relax in difficult places and just breathe slowly and slowly. If possible, don’t close your eyes. Even if your eyelids are heavy, be patient. I’ll save you…”
“Don’t… I… Don’t want to live…”
Took-
“… What?”
The memory hunter took my hand and spoke with difficulty. What did this bastard just say?
Saaaaa-
Something passed from him to me.
It was a man’s memory.
The memory of a man who wanted a happy and normal life with his loving family.
The memory of a man who lost everything in the world in an instant.
Memories of a man who ran all the way for revenge.
And… The memory of my friend.
“Stop it… I want to go… To my family… Their… Warmth… I can’t remember…”
“… Hey. What’s wrong with you? Why are you so weak? You haven’t gotten revenge yet. Even if you die, you have to take revenge and die. Next time, I’ll help you. .. Let’s live. Huh? Let’s live together, friends.”
“Now… If I don’t look at the photos… I can’t remember my family’s faces…”
“…”
Wrong.
No matter what he said, it was impossible to change the mind of a man who had accepted death.
Then, the only way left was to force him to life without his permission.
But I had no right to postpone his death.
His life is his, his death is also his.
I have no right to rob him.
“…”
There was not much light left in his eyes.
All I could do was watch his end like this.
No, no.
There is one thing I can do for him.
“… Mikhail Lignes.”
For the first time, I called his real name, not the memory hunter.
Mikhail Lignes.
It was my friend’s name.
“You are the husband of a wise wife, Rowen Rignes, and the strong father of a sweet daughter, Sarah Rignes. You love and are loved by the two most beautiful mothers and daughters in the world. Sometimes hard times come to your home. I will, but your love is so great that we can overcome any difficulty together.”
S- Le- Leuk-
At my words, the corners of Mikhail’s mouth rose slowly.
His eyes no longer looked at me.
I was walking, looking into the memories I made.
“You really like to drink. But your wife and daughter don’t like that you drink. So you secretly drank, and your wife finds out and gets scolded. The daughter gets mad at you for secretly drinking again. Then you Prepare an event to relieve your wife and daughter’s anger.”
“Your daughter, who seemed to remain a girl for the rest of her life, has grown into an adult. She has grown into a beauty who resembles your eyes and looks exactly like your wife. Oh dear, your daughter brought a man with her as the person she loves. Then you tell him Point the shotgun and say, if you make my daughter sad, you will die by my hand.”
“You and your wife are walking along a beautiful flower path. A beautiful flower path filled with the scent of flowers and the world full of fragrance. You are walking on the flower path while holding her hand tightly. Her beautiful hands are now full of wrinkles. .But they are still beautiful hands in your eyes, because they were the first reason you fell in love with your wife.”
“You’re a man with a strong sense of responsibility, so you’ll die a day later than your wife. That way, your wife won’t be saddened by your death. That way, your wife won’t go to the underworld lonely and lonely. You’ll be with her until the end.”
“That’s you, Mikhail Lignes… Buddy.”
“…”
The light disappeared from Michael’s eyes before he knew it.
But the corners of his mouth were raised.
I hoped that changing his memory, which was dotted with revenge, would have been helpful.
“Ah…”
In the distance, I saw the figure of an old man holding his grandmother’s hand and leaving for a long way. The old man turned to me and bowed his head with a great smile.
“Good-bye. Good-bye friend. Let’s have a drink next time.”
The old man smiled at me and walked down the street holding his wife’s hand tightly.
“AA AA AA…”
It looked like rain was pouring from the sky. My mask was wet with rain. My mask was quickly soaked with rainwater. Yes, it got wet in the rain.
——————!
Yes, it got wet in the rain.
