Chapter 83 – Crack(2)
My mouth felt dry and my throat felt dry.
Even my lips were dry, I could feel the cracks like rice fields cracked by drought, and the crumbly feeling was craving moisture, but a plastic bottle suddenly squeezed into my mouth.
It was lukewarm, but I instinctively started to swallow it, and immediately lay down and sucked on the plastic bottle.
After quenching my neck at the oasis, I suddenly came back to my senses, and soon, starting with the plastic bottle, I raised my gaze to see a familiar face feeding me water with an urgent expression.
” Earthly child… Wake up…!”
A musty smell spread through her clothes, perhaps from sweat, but even that smell mixed with her unique body odor to become a strange perfume, which made her feel even more comfortable.
” ····Sister····. “
” . . . On earth!”
She barely came to her senses and uttered her voice. It was my older sister who held me tight. Before I could feel her breasts, I felt that one side of her shoulder was getting wet. It seemed that her sister was shedding tears again.
“It’s okay now, so don’t cry, noona…”
Even at my words, my sister just hugged me tighter for a long time without saying a word like Manbuseok.
Because she’s been stuck here, where she doesn’t know how many days have passed.
As usual, I started off with a good feeling in the beginning.
Unlike me who didn’t know anything, my sister was accustomed to making a base by herself, making a fire, and even making me a bed.
Among the comments about a man trying to seduce a woman with all sorts of flattery and lies for marriage, the adage, ‘I’ll make sure she doesn’t get a drop of water on her hands,’ was not really difficult because of her older sister who practiced the maxim.
It was a problem if it was reduced to a sacrifice that had to provide semen to the older sister, but it is natural that the cost would be cheap for the older sister, who takes care of everything even if she sits still.
He could afford to bleed for such a luxury.
About 3 days passed like that.
A serious problem broke out, and the reason was that drinking water was almost running out.
The cause was none other than me, but I had touched the drinking water a lot.
Strangely, since I came here, my burning thirst has intensified, and I couldn’t help but reach for my water bottle.
A few minutes after drinking the water, the moisture evaporated in an instant, as if there was a bunch of biscuits in my mouth, and the ghost was about to wail.
Putting aside the absurdity of the situation I was experiencing for the first time, I couldn’t come to my senses because I was thirsty, so in the end, the vicious cycle repeated.
Anyway, when the water showed the bottom, I belatedly realized.
That what I did was an idiot worse than a troll.
Even if you regret the act of instinctively drinking only water because you went out of your mind from thirst, it is already too late to lament.
I had to find a way to quickly supply water, but I looked around and couldn’t find any sharp points.
This place itself was a common forest, but as I came, I couldn’t see the common valleys or valleys even after washing my eyes.
I couldn’t find even a trace of the water passing by so much that I doubted whether it had evaporated as if it hadn’t existed in the first place.
In addition, my sister, who had been moving happily as if she knew the way, slowed down her bold steps and hardened her expression, a situation where even an idiot would know that the situation we were facing was not so good.
Losers who lost their way due to lack of drinking water.
To make matters worse, the situation was enough to drive me and my sister to despair.
” ···· I’m sorry, Jisang-ah···· Noona…”
“Again, it’s like that… Isn’t it sister’s fault? So don’t beat yourself up too much.”
Due to my trolling, I was barely holding on by sharing my sister’s share of drinking water in a situation where drinking water was already scarce, but the boiling thirst whipped and pressured me even more as if it didn’t matter.
That’s why I seem to have lost my mind without knowing it, but sure enough, I took away even my sister’s water of life.
‘ … Fuck. ‘
As expected, in a situation where my older sister, who only thought of me as a confined person, was crying because of self-blame, I was helping her mentally, but I was the one who wanted to cry.
It’s like a self-inflicted self-abuse for acting like an idiot.
There would have been nothing to say in the field and afterlife that he died here and now.
” ···· Thank you, sister··· for giving me water····.”
“Why did you give me water?”
Seeing that he didn’t stop me from drinking water out of ignorance, that would hurt my older sister, whose top priority is to protect her safely in the first place.
Rather, praising and encouraging her like this was hundreds of times better for her.
“Of course…”
Sure enough, I barely held back the fact that I was about to burst out laughing because of my older sister, who was laughing so hard, but I frowned again at the thirst that swarmed like a swarm of bees.
“…Sister, what the hell is this…?”
When I asked with a frown on her face, my older sister looked at me with a worried expression, but this time she frowned at herself.
“Did I tell you? You don’t have to know about the earth…”
As I said, I knew that this place was inside the gate.
However, I would have to think about what characteristics and what kind of guys buy, but my sister just seemed to be disapproving of me knowing information about the industry.
“Sister… I mean…”
“Since noona will take care of everything… You don’t have to know anything about the earth… Don’t worry about anything. Huh…?
Yes, now that I look at it, that was just my mother.
The fact that I didn’t know the lineage itself was reluctant.
It seemed to me that there was nothing good for me because it was a job with a lot of risk factors, but I didn’t say anything more when I saw that creepy expression.
In the end, I had no choice but to put in guesses that were not the same as my own experience, and I had to roughly guess what the place had, but I was able to organize a total of three things in my head.
First, there is something that makes people thirsty.
It can also be predicted in two ways, and it must be either a living organism or an environment.
In my subjective opinion, the latter seemed high, but the reason was that my sister’s reaction was quiet.
If there was such a thirst-inducing creature, the superhuman sister would have been able to move, but the fact that she didn’t would be proof that the environment itself was like this.
More than anything else, the fact that I was in pain and not letting go was a sufficient reason for my sister to not be right.
Besides, my sister was in a calm state unlike me.
In other words, unlike my sister, my garbage-like ability would be lost to the environment.
‘ If this is the case, it makes no sense that there is no water… Huh- I’m going to die. ‘
Feeling thirsty, I coughed weakly and thought again.
Second, there is something that interferes with people’s five senses.
There was no need to think about the fact that the superhuman sister was desperate because this was also an environmental problem, much the same as the first one.
Third, this is a place with few monsters.
The only monster I’ve seen over the past few days is a strange monster with a skinny body, a long neck, wide eyes like a ghost, and screaming freely.
If you think of a place called a gate in a fantasy or novel as a medium where various monsters are rampant, you have no choice but to think that this place itself was designed to stop people from being environmentally friendly.
To put it all together, in a desert-like space disguised as a forest, with all five senses blocked and unable to find an exit, they were locked up and asked whether they were free to search for ghosts or to search for dehydration.
“Nuna… I can’t find the direction at all…?”
At my words, my older sister was hesitant, wondering if the words from before had taken a little.
“It’s okay, noona. Where’s the perfect person? That’s not a person, it’s a god. Or does he care about my worries? Put-noona might be, but I’m rather nice? I know what you’re worried about, and I can help you.” ?”
” . . . Ground child…”
“I know you’re worried… It might seem like you’re worrying about me for nothing, but sister? Sometimes you have to share the burden.”
” . . . “
“Ah… Is it a bit difficult for you…? Hmm- Okay, then let’s do this. Only here, only here, sister, let’s share the burden with me. Can you do that?”
” ····Huh····. “
“Thank you, sister.”
I smiled lightly and stroked her cheek, and my sister smiled again. Seeing that, I felt relieved.
Either way, it seemed to work well.
“You’re right on the ground… I couldn’t find my direction at all… I got lost… I’m sorry…”
“No, noona, it’s okay. You worked hard.”
As I gently stroked her cheek, my older sister smiled lightly and then muttered something softly.
“····Kang A-seol must have left right away····.”
My older sister, who was biting her lips, probably possessed by a strange jealousy, only stepped on the ground, but I flinched when I saw that the ground was dented even after stepping on it lightly.
“Kyaaaaagh!”
At that time, my body shrank from the tearing scream, and my sister hugged me like a ghost and began to look around.
My older sister’s expression hardened coldly, and she kissed me and whispered in her ear.
“Jang-ah… You have to be in your arms…? Never raise your face…”
‘ Whoa… ‘
Even while thirsty, the feeling of her breasts stimulated my groin.
*
It was the site of bloodshed.
A siren with its head cut in half. A siren with its head and body neatly cut in half.
It was because more than 100 sirens were lying miserably on the ground.
Kang Ji-sang swallowed her breath once, and Kang Ah-jung covered her sister’s eyes with her chest and chewed on her lips.
‘ Another Hunter… ‘
It was rare for monsters to be destroyed like this.
Moreover, fighting with other monsters in a crack where there was only a siren didn’t make sense.
There was little chance of fratricide.
They were just monsters specialized in stimulating people’s fear. In the first place, the only thing that could kill them was that sound that pierced their eardrums.
As Kang A-jung said, it was never too late that another hunter came in with a crack, but she was more wary and worried than happy.
Because in defending her precious little brother, other people were inflaming her animosity against her more strongly than her monsters.
Perhaps it was because she had a history of severe burns, and she felt even more anxious.
“It’s fucking easy~”
“Hey, don’t let your guard down.”
‘One man and two women… ‘
A group of people were chatting in a place not far from Sisanhyeolhae, and their tattered clothes and worn-out equipment proved that they were not very talented.
She quickly figured it out, and Kang A-jeong, not taking her eyes off her group, was rolling her head about what to do, when her younger brother looked at her with her cute face and she said,
“Sister! Isn’t this a human voice…?”
‘ Ah····. ‘
It felt as if the bricks in Kang Ah-jung’s heart were falling apart.
While contemplating whether to avoid or kill her, her younger brother heard the voices of the guys.
“…There was someone else besides us! Noona…!”
Her little brother looked very happy, but she couldn’t smile and her anxiety increased.
Judging by her behavior, it probably wouldn’t help her power very much, and her younger brother was only given an object to be wary of, so eventually she finished her calculations and made a quick decision.
” ···· Earthly, those people···· are bad people····.”
” ····Uh? “
“If you go around with bad people… You can’t…”
First of all, Kang Ah-jeong preached her negative attitude toward the group to her younger brother.
Nothing has been revealed yet, but from her experience, it was clear to her that if she went with that group, a minus would be a minus, not a plus.
“Sister… Don’t you know that yet…? Those people are bad people…”
” No! “
” . . . “
“Those people are bad people…! Trust my sister…!”
There was no solid basis.
To Kang A-jung, whose hostility and anxiety had already taken over her whole body, they were nothing more than wicked vagrants targeting her younger brother.
” Sister. “
“Heavenly child…!”
“Now we are lost too. It’s only natural that they are like that, so wouldn’t it be right to work together to find a way out?”
In fact, her younger brother’s behavior made sense.
It would have been a foolish thing for Hunters to fight each other in the same situation.
But my younger brother didn’t know much about this industry.
Because it was the job of a hunter to wake up and be covey, and being stabbed in the back of the head while drinking in May was not an ordinary thing, because it was on this floor.
It was natural to have to be vigilant everywhere.
” ···· Older sister, please, huh····? “
However, her younger sister, who was touching her cheeks with her delicate hands and sending off a foul expression, couldn’t bear to refuse.
It is clear that she will disappoint her if she does not listen to her younger brother, and if she disappoints her, she will hate herself just like her mother and Ah Seol. It was a job to eat, but there was no benefit.
In the end, Kang A-jung accepted her tears and approached her group, holding her anxiety.
“Look- I… Uh… What! It’s a surprise!”
” . . . Hick!”
” . . . “
As she approached, killing her presence, her group of people were surprised while talking and fell out. Kang A-jeong pulled her younger brother close to her chest and sent her wary eyes.
“Are you… Hunter…?”
” ····Yes. “
“Ah····! Nice to meet you! We were also swept away by crack and unluckily fell here, haha! Finally meeting another Hunter!”
“Who’s holding it…?”
“My… My younger brother…”
Seeing her holding her tightly in her arms, as if she didn’t want to show her, the woman wearing glasses flinched at her, but she swallowed her saliva softly and continued her words.
“Excuse me, but is he also a Hunter…?”
“My brother is not…”
” Oh yeah····? “
When she saw the group of people whose expressions became noticeably darker, Kang A-jung’s spirit welled up in her flesh.
Ordinarily, the culprit in this situation would have been a look that her nose could have matched, but considering what her brother meant to her, that expression on her face was not an easy one to make in front of her.
“It’s cute… Ah!”
“Do you want to search…? Let’s figure out the subject? Huh…?”
When the woman with a ponytail rolled her eyes, the man next to her noticed, but despite her small words, Kang Ah-jung could hear them all.
And Kang A-jung’s body trembled at the look of the girl who liked her as if she was cute.
It was just that the fact that her wicked existence dared to look at her little brother like that was disgusting enough to make me sick.
“I guess you’re a soldier…?”
“My sister… I fell here during the graduation ceremony.”
“Ah… That’s right.”
A moment of silence passed, and this time Kang Ji-sang, who had been watching her, spoke her words first.
“If you don’t mind, can I ask you one question?”
” Yes. “
“If you and your companions are also lost… Can you help us find the way…?”
As soon as Kang Ji-sang finished speaking, the woman with a ponytail nodded her head.
“Everything… Of course…! We lost our way too… Ah!”
The woman with a ponytail who had screamed slightly as if her waist had been pinched looked at her man with an unfair expression, and the man pointed directly to the ground of the river and continued her words.
“Your sister… Um- I can accept it… But you… I need to think about it a bit…?”
“Younghwan!”
“Speak what needs to be said. It is a matter of life and death. If we blindly accept it, we may only be harmed.”
Kang Ah-jeong’s strings of reason were loosened one by one.
Anyone who sees it, it’s not enough to point out that it’s rude when you first meet, and you ignore her younger brother right in front of your nose, not anyone else, and openly give her a hug and even argue about the relationship of interest?
Uncontrollable Salsim raised her head and was about to leave the water when her younger brother tapped her on the chest.
‘ ····. ‘
Seeing her younger brother begging for patience with the shape of her mouth, she had no choice but to suppress her flesh.
“That, I understand. But… Can’t I just let my sister do my job for me? Even so, she’s a pretty good hunter.”
Kang Ah-jung’s heart skipped a beat when she saw her little brother proudly speaking of himself.
She was praised by her younger brother, not by anyone else, so she was even thrilled.
“This person alone serves two people…? Hmm, I don’t know… His skills…”
When she noticed, she had a nuance to tell her what level of skill she had, but Kang Ah-jeong quickly shook her head and continued her words.
“It’s an A+…”
“A+?”
A group of people flinched, and she soon began to discuss among themselves in a corner, asking them to wait a moment.
A Hunter who can do even an A+.
There must have been a high wall for such goofballs.
After discussing for a long time, the group finally returned to their seats and nodded.
I meant to accept it.
“First of all, let’s move seats… The place is too good for a conversation…”
At the man’s words, Kang-ah shook her head.
Even so, her fishy blood scent and the place where her eyes were squinted would not have been good for her younger brother’s emotions.
In fact, even while her younger brother was talking, she kept covering her eyes implicitly.
Kang Ah-jeong, who buried her younger brother in her breast, started walking with her group in the opposite direction from the scene of childbirth.
He was ready to blow his head at any time without their knowledge.
