Chapter 96
They must extract energy from Kang Seung-geon as quickly as possible through a menacing attack, but they must protect his life. Cheon Sa-yeon and Ha Tae-heon had to work together to achieve this difficult situation.
Even the slightest mistake could kill Kang Seung-geon. What I had to do was to control the flow so that such an unfortunate incident didn’t occur. That was the best.
“Growl, growl!”
Kang Seung-geon, who was shedding bloody tears with his eyes turned around, noticed the presence of Cheon Sa-yeon and Ha Tae-heon, who were closing the distance, and cried like a beast. Crack, crack. Dozens of concrete debris that had been scattered around floated into the air.
Cheon Sa-yeon, who had significantly reduced his energy compared to dealing with the doll, took the lead first. Cheon Sa-yeon, who flew through the air without difficulty with my ability, swung his sword at Kang Seung-geon without hesitation.
Kuung!
The black Kang Seung-geon, which was deliberately missed, passed by and smashed the ground. In line with that moment, I changed the flow of the wind so that the burning fire of Cheon Sa-yeon didn’t come close to Kang Seung-geon.
“Kuu, gu!”
The clothes were torn and blood was oozing where Cheon Sa-yeon’s sword passed, but that much wound was okay. Rather, Kang Seung-geon, perhaps feeling a sense of crisis from the wound, exuded energy once more.
When Kang Seung-geon stepped back to avoid Cheon Sa-yeon’s attack, Ha Tae-heon, who had been there beforehand, attacked. Ha Tae-heon, like Cheon Sa-yeon, swung his sword, aiming for the innocent ground, with little use of his ability. Despite the fact that the two looked after him openly, Kang Seung-geon was in a hurry to avoid the attack as his body wounded never ceased.
‘The flow isn’t bad. It could end a lot sooner than I expected.’
The amount of energy that Kang Seung-geon, who had lost his mind, radiated was enormous. Taking out that much energy at once would cause serious health problems, but frankly, that wasn’t a problem we had to worry about. What we need to do now was just to get this situation sorted out quickly and prevent further damage…
“Ku, uaaargh!”
At that moment, Kang Seung-geon let out a painful scream and spread his energy around him like a tsunami. My body was pushed back and I felt a tingling sensation on my skin. Like me, Cheon Sa-yeon and Ha Tae-heon, who were constantly pushing Kang Seung-geon, were also pushed back a little.
Cough!
At the same time as Kang Seung-geon spat out a handful of blood, the bewildering voices of people nearby were heard one after another. Something was strange. With an unusual sign, I hurriedly looked around.
“……!”
Huge concrete fragments and debris were all floating in the air. The moment I discovered that the number sequence was going over, I had an ominous feeling.
No way, this.
“Cheon Sa-yeon!”
I shouted to Cheon Sa-yeon, who didn’t know the situation yet because he was dealing with Kang Seung-geon.
“Wait! If he runs out of energy right now…!”
“Cough!”
Before I could even finish my words, Kang Seung-geon bled again, and at the same time, a roar echoed from the east.
Kuung—!
A huge shard of concrete flew high in the air and fell to the ground, a startled cry to run away and the cries of a child deafening my ears.
I found the remaining debris floating in the air, shaking unsteadily, and the injured, unable to escape below it. The talented and rescue workers to help the evacuation moved quickly, but it was impossible to block them all because the distance between the debris was too far.
Even as my brain was tangled in confusion, I quickly raised my energy. Contrary to Kang Seung-geon’s gradually decreasing energy, now my energy had started to swell at a tremendous speed.
“Han Yi-gyeol!”
I heard Ha Tae-heon’s cry, but I ignored it and continued to gather energy. A huge tornado began to revolve around my body and the headache gradually worsened. I cut off all the energy I had sent to Cheon Sa-yeon and Ha Tae-heon, and concentrated on gathering my strength.
“Han Yi-gyeol, stop it!”
At the moment when Kang Seung-geon’s body, who had lost consciousness, fell to the floor, debris floating in the air fell at the same time at high speed. I felt the vibration of the bracelet and the energy that reached the limit twisting at random, and violently exploded the wind I had been collecting.
Huung!
“Ugh…!”
With a squeezing pain in my heart, the far-spread wind managed to block the fall of the debris. A terrifying feeling of pressure engulfed my whole body, more than I expected. I felt as if the debris that was supported were weighing down on my body, not the wind.
Veins appeared on my forehead and my whole body trembled beyond control. The frightened injured could be seen beneath the concrete debris that had been blocked just before they hit the floor. I had to somehow hold on until they all escaped. I curled my upper body like a shrimp and bit my lips.
‘I have to hold out for at least one minute…’
Will I be able to endure it?
The energy consumed to the ground began to stab my heart sharply. Gasp, gasp… A rough breath rang in my ears as if I was suffocated.
“Han Yi-gyeol!”
Hearing Ha Tae-heon’s call, I slowly closed my eyes and opened them. Little bit more. A little bit…
Just as I was trying to hold on, something hot hit my throat and came up. It was dark red blood filled with the fishy smell of iron that came out of my mouth without even being able to stop it.
“Ah…?”
Thud. The hand that reflexively covered my mouth was quickly stained with blood. My vision was distorted and the energy that was blocking the debris was forcibly cut off.
Kuung! Thud!
As the wind blew away, I could hear the sound of the ground rumbled from here and there. At the same time, I also fell down.
* * *
“Hey there, Healer.”
After treatment of the injured, Min Ah-rin turned her attention to the call from behind her. A woman with her reddish, fine-grained hair tied into one came to her holding the little child in her arms.
“The child hurt her leg, that’s it. I think it’s a little too much.”
“I will see.”
Did she say her name is Cha Soo-yeon? Contrary to her picky appearance, she seemed quite familiar to soothe a child who was scared and cried.
“Huooong!”
As Cha Soo-yeon said, the child was seriously injured in her knee. As she healed her wounds with her ability and wiped the blood, the child bowed her head toward Min Ah-rin and Cha Soo-yeon as if her pain had subsided.
“Thank you.”
It was cute to see her greet politely with a watery voice, which made her laugh. Min Ah-rin, who led the child to the paramedics, asked Cha Soo-yeon, who was standing next to her.
“Do you have a younger sibling?”
“Yes? Oh, me?”
“Yes. You seem good at comforting children.”
Cha Soo-yeon, who had never expected that Min Ah-rin would ask such a question first, shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth with an awkward expression.
“Ah, my relatives and brothers are young…”
“I see.”
Cha Soo-yeon bowed her head, unable to make eye contact with Min Ah-rin, who smiled softly. Seeing that figure, Min Ah-rin thought to herself.
‘Somewhere, Woo-jin-ssi comes to mind. She’s a funny guy.’
Unlike Min Ah-rin, who was relaxed, Cha Soo-yeon’s mouth was dry at the sight of the other person who was staring at her.
‘Why are you looking at me like that?’
Cha Soo-yeon, who had a shy personality, had no idea what to do because she had never been close to a rabbit-like person like Min Ah-rin.
What did she do wrong? No? She wanted to run away right away, but even that was not easy because Min Ah-rin was openly watching her. Cha Soo-yeon kept her lips closed and endured Min Ah-rin’s gaze.
“Excuse me…”
It was when Min Ah-rin, who had been staring at Cha Soo-yeon for a long time, just opened her mouth.
Kugugung!
The ground that had stopped shook again and the floor began to crack deeply. Cha Soo-yeon, who reflexively grabbed Min Ah-rin’s body, looked to the west, where the battle was in full swing.
“This, Blun Guild Master had another ability…”
“Cha Soo-yeon-ssi, up there!”
Min Ah-rin pointed to the sky and shouted. Huge concrete debris continued to rise high. Even at a glance, that number was well over ten.
Min Ah-rin frowned and looked around her quickly. It was full of injured people who hadn’t yet been rescued. Even if they fell in this state.
“I can’t. I have to go.”
“Wait a minute.”
Min Ah-rin grabbed Cha Soo-yeon’s arm as she was about to run to Kang Seung-geon’s place. She looked up at the sky and opened her mouth.
“Yi-gyeol-ssi…”
At those words, Cha Soo-yeon also found Han Yi-gyeol flying in the distance. Huung, the wind created around him reached even to Cha Soo-yeon and Min Ah-rin, who were far away. Cha Soo-yeon, who felt her hair fluttering, exclaimed in a startled voice.
“What the hell is that idiot doing!”
Everyone’s eyes were on Han Yi-gyeol, who was making a strong gust of wind under the overcast sky with dark clouds. Not only the injured, but also Woo Seo-hyuk, who ran around the collapsed building to help rescuers, Kim Woo-jin, who rescued an injured person from a distorted car, and Hong Si-ah, who carried the fallen injured person on her back.
“Han Yi-gyeol!”
Ha Tae-heon hurriedly shouted at the unusual energy, but Han Yi-gyeol cut off the wind that had been sent to Ha Tae-heon and Cheon Sa-yeon and gathered the energy.
“Han Yi-gyeol, stop it!”
Ha Tae-heon cried out once again in the rush of anxiety. Even though he wasn’t in good physical condition, using his energy to such an extent was like a suicade. He had to stop right away.
As soon as it was confirmed that Kang Seung-geon had passed out, Ha Tae-heon ran towards Han Yi-gyeol. However, before he even arrived, concrete debris began to fall, and Han Yi-gyeol strongly exploded his ability that he had raised to the limit.
“Gasp…!”
The gusts of wind that spread in all directions completely blocked the falling concrete debris.
Ha Tae-heon resisted the wind strong enough to push his body and shortly after that, he found Han Yi-gyeol in pain in the air.
“Now! Rescue!”
“Get away!”
Hearing the voices of rescue from all directions, Ha Tae-heon moved his body again.
Han Yi-gyeol, who was crouching down in his trembling body, carrying the pain all alone, was clearly etched into his mind. Would it have been the same then and now? As he recalled the memory of him leaving Han Yi-gyeol alone, a piercing pain spread in the corner of his chest as if stabbed by something sharp.
“Han Yi-gyeol…!”
He ran as hard as he could and when he was almost there, Han Yi-gyeol, who vomited blood from his mouth, fell down. Kuung, kung! Ha Tae-heon spread his arms as he stepped on the ground shaken by the collision of debris. And he safely received Han Yi-gyeol’s body, which fell slowly due to the black dust.
“Haa…”
Ha Tae-heon breathed a sigh of relief as he hugged the man who had come into his arms. Luckily he wasn’t late.
“Yi-gyeol-ssi!”
Min Ah-rin, who approached while being hugged by Cha Soo-yeon, quickly grabbed Han Yi-gyeol’s hand. The wound on his head, which had barely stopped bleeding, burst again, and Han Yi-gyeol’s white face, which had been vomited blood, was all covered in blood.
“I will fill you with energy first.”
Min Ah-rin stuttered and said with a pale face. Kim Woo-jin, who arrived later, also bit his lip with a painful expression when he saw Han Yi-gyeol, who had lost consciousness while being held in Ha Tae-heon’s arms.
“…it’s over.”
Cheon Sa-yeon said in a low voice, kicking Kang Seung-geon, who had fainted. Black smoke from the burnt doll spread over the cloudy sky.
T/N :
