Chapter 922 – 922. Nightmare (2)
In a pure white void where nothing exists.
A cold silence fell in the audience.
This is because he could not immediately accept the shocking truth that Eunhyeon’s wives suddenly revealed.
“… “What did you say just now?”
It was Illyana who broke the silence.
Her voice as she asked again was filled with a small tremor.
Because she couldn’t believe it.
“Who… “Who are you going to kill?”
Another Eunhyun answered her question once again.
“‘I’ killed ‘my mother.'”
“…”
The unsettling truth she did not want to believe was once again solidified.
The ‘I’ that Eunhyeon mentioned did not refer to only him.
A common experience told by Eunhyun, including her wives who know them.
The other Eunhyun in front of me or the present Eunhyeon that my wives knew, although the paths they were walking and their futures were different, their memories of the past were the same.
That experience was also the starting point for the two.
Illyana turned her head and looked at the Goddess of Eunhyeon.
“… Mr. Verdandi. “Is this true?”
“…”
Verdandi couldn’t say anything and kept his mouth shut.
He soon closed his eyes tightly, exhaled once, and opened his mouth.
“… “It’s true.”
“That can’t be…”
After hearing her goddess’s confirmation, Eleanor covered her mouth with her hand at the shocking truth.
Verdandi continued speaking.
“That thing back then… “It was also the opportunity for me to discover children.”
◆ ◆ ◆
This was when she entered university and completed her first year.
“Good. Not bad.”
I took the final exams for all the subjects of the second semester and reached the end of the semester.
I felt relieved when I went to the school intranet and confirmed that I had received satisfactory grades based on my study.
Eunhyeon immediately checked the contents of her smartphone.
There were hundreds of chat records in the messenger app.
In the group room where all first-year students in the department participated, everyone began to send messages saying that they had worked hard until the end of the semester, and people started making plans to have a drink to celebrate the end of the semester.
In the group room of friends who hung out together by playing games or eating together, there were some who were making trivial plans, such as saying that they would definitely achieve diamond level by the start of next year or that they were planning a trip during the vacation.
“Ah, wisdom…”
And there was a message from Jihye, his girlfriend.
He told me that he had worked hard until the end of the semester and asked about his future schedule.
During the vacation, she planned to work part-time to earn living expenses and tuition, and she planned to go home to rest and spend time with her mother for about a week before school.
She planned to meet Ji-hye and have a relationship while working part-time, but her thoughts on Ji-hye seemed a little different.
[Let’s go on a trip with me.]
It was a difficult proposition.
It wasn’t that I didn’t like traveling with Jihye.
However, if she goes on a trip with her girlfriend, her plan to earn tuition through part-time work will be more strained.
Eunhyeon couldn’t help but feel burdened.
[I will pay next year’s tuition. Then we can go on a trip together, right?]
It was an even more difficult proposition.
It was definitely consideration from Jihye’s point of view.
Because she thought she could do this much for her boyfriend.
However, for Eun-hyeon, Ji-hye’s consideration was a burden and a fetter.
She has nothing she can give back, so why does she do this?
She could have just shut her mouth, thanked him, and ate it, but Eunhyun was too immature and sloppy for that.
Eunhyeon politely refused her wisdom’s consideration.
[… Okay. Okay. See you next week then. Huh.]
With a small sigh, Jihye put her regret aside and ended her call by making an appointment.
Eunhyeon devoted herself to work for a while.
Rather than a part-time job that was comfortable for her, she preferred factory work that paid a lot of money even if it was a bit difficult.
She interviewed and joined a short-term shift production position at a factory, and fortunately, she went to work, relieved that it was not an unscrupulous company that abused power or played with salaries.
The job itself was quite suitable.
The job didn’t require a complicated background or qualifications, nor did it require her to use her brain.
Checking whether the production line process is running properly and inspecting the equipment.
Although she had to learn the job, it was something she was able to adapt to as long as she understood the structure of the facility and had some physical skills.
Eunhyun had to spend her days even busier during her vacation period when she was not at school, than during the semester when she was at school.
On weekdays, she filled her time by working shifts at a local factory, and on her days off, she went up to Seoul and met her wisdom.
She even found the time she spent napping on the bus to be unexpectedly sweet.
Ji-hye even made a worried expression on Eun-hyeon’s face when she came to see her on her day off.
“Do you really have to work that hard? If you just get help from me…”
“No. It’s wisdom. “That won’t work.”
Eunhyeon shook her head resolutely and drew her line.
Even though it was a romantic relationship, there were lines that had to be maintained even within this relationship.
This was something that Eunhyeon could not compromise.
Jihye seemed to have a lot of things she wanted to say, but she couldn’t help but nod her head and accept it.
So two months passed since she worked at the factory.
The start of the semester was slowly approaching, and Eunhyeon, who had already saved up tuition and living expenses for the next semester, returned home immediately.
She was going to spend a week with her mother and relax at her house.
“Should I go to sleep…”
As soon as she boarded the bus she had booked and sat down in her assigned seat, Eunhyun tilted her chair back and laid her body down.
This was possible because her hometown was a rural area with a relatively low floating population compared to other regions, so there were very few passengers on her bus.
‘If this continues, won’t the bus company go out of business?’ .’
She had had such thoughts more than once.
She was worried for a moment and Eunhyeon immediately fell asleep.
Although she said she rested in between, it was because she still had accumulated fatigue.
She said that after about an hour she decided to get on the bus and go.
Good!
She was fast asleep and waiting to arrive at her hometown.
Suddenly the bus shook.
“W-what… !?”
It wasn’t rocking side to side, but up and down, causing Eunhyeon and many of her passengers to jump out of their seats.
It was an instant before I realized that the bus had completely overturned.
“Uh, uh…”
One passenger, probably because he was not wearing a seat belt, fell and hit his head on the overturned ceiling.
“What the hell is this…” .”
Eunhyeon looked around the chaotic inside of the bus and stared at the window.
Outside the bus, something unbelievable was happening.
“… Rabbit?”
It wasn’t just a rabbit.
Its head, with its impressive long white ears, had the appearance of a rabbit, but its size was larger than that of most bears.
Just looking at its size, it easily surpasses even that of a bear.
The huge rabbit appeared in the middle of the highway.
Rabbits were attacking people.
He grabbed the car on the highway and crushed it.
A scene of a cruel massacre where a person who hastily escaped from a car is snatched, their torso crushed, torn apart, and violated.
What kind of fuss is this, why did something like that pop out, and what on earth is that in the first place?
It was a confusion that left my mind jumbled, with no clear answer coming to mind.
“What the hell is that… !”
One passenger was horrified, pointed at the giant rabbit and said:
But there was no way an answer would come out.
“Plague… !”
Eunhyeon looked at the situation inside the bus, cursing at the unknown disaster that had come before her.
It was a very unfortunate situation for others, but the rabbit was not very interested in the bus that Eunhyeon was riding.
To a rabbit that was relatively far away, the food in front of it would have been more appetizing.
Eunhyeon unfastened her seatbelt and landed on the overturned ceiling, immediately inspecting the situation of the passengers inside the bus.
“Are you okay?”
“Ah oh…”
He was an old man who was so shocked that he couldn’t even speak properly.
Eunhyeon carefully unfastened the old man’s seat belt and caught him from falling.
“Knight! Here… !”
Eunhyeon could not continue speaking until the end.
The bus driver, who was supposed to be sitting in the driver’s seat, was nowhere to be seen.
He looked at the road outside the bus through the already open door and saw the back of the bus driver.
He was already on the move.
“…”
Eunhyeon quickly came to her senses and took care of the other passengers on the bus.
“Can you walk?”
“Thank you, Maui. Bachelor…”
He helped an elderly man with limited mobility and got out of the overturned bus along with the passengers.
Fortunately, it was not that difficult to escape from the bus, perhaps because the bus driver who escaped first left the door open.
Without even having time to think about whether to call this a blessing or curse at the bus driver who ran away, Eunhyeon and the passengers quickly looked around.
The fastest way to escape from here was to get a car.
However, the safe people at the back of the bus had already started to drive their cars in reverse, and those in the opposite lane had already fled.
All that remained were the cars on the side whose front was blocked by the giant rabbit.
The roads were completely blocked by overturned buses and trucks, and these were the remaining cars that people abandoned and ran away.
“…”
No matter how you ride them, it will be impossible to even drive back as they are blocked by overturned buses and trucks.
Eunhyeon walked forward.
“Hey, hey! “Where are you going?”
One passenger was startled and grabbed Eunhyeon’s arm to stop her.
“I need to get a car.”
“That car? It’s crazy? Even if I could drive the cars that were abandoned, I couldn’t run back because of those buses and trucks… !”
“You can’t go back. But you can move forward.”
“What are you talking about…”
The passenger looked at Eunhyeon like she was crazy.
What Eunhyeon meant was that he would go directly to the place where the huge rabbit was rampaging like crazy.
But Eunhyeon had a reason to do so.
“… I have a mom. I have to go get her mom.”
That rabbit probably isn’t the beginning.
It is said that even in his hometown, other monsters that attack people have appeared, although not as many as me.?
What came to Eunhyeon’s mind was the face of her mother, Eun Yeonhwa.
I haven’t even done a proper filial piety yet.
From the time she came of age, ever since she was in elementary school, her first priority was to check on her mother, who raised her alone and went through all kinds of hardships.
So Eunhyeon shook off the hand of the other passenger who was holding her back and walked forward.
“I’ve never even driven a car properly…”
Who would have imagined that one would drive like this?
I sat in the driver’s seat of a car that was left empty and abandoned by its owner.
Fortunately, the car keys were still on and the engine had not been turned off.
Eunhyun immediately stepped on her accelerator with all her might and accelerated.
The loud engine sound filled the car and the car began to drive forward.
Hearing the sound of the engine, the giant rabbit’s ears perked up and it stared at Eunhyeon’s car.
After seeing the rabbit’s huge hand, Eunhyeon turned the steering wheel and suddenly stepped on the brakes.
Eunhyeon avoided being touched by the rabbit by a narrow margin, and immediately stepped on the accelerator to pass the rabbit.
The giant rabbit stared at Eunhyeon, who passed by him, and then immediately lost her nerve.
This is because there were more people in front of them than could catch that one person.
“Mom…”
Eunhyeon could not hide the anxiety rising in his heart.
What should I do if something goes wrong?
In order to quickly check the results, he stepped on the accelerator and ran on the road.
