Kim Soo-hyun soared high in the sky. And then some users look up into the air and say, "Uh, uh.” I stumbled, screaming. The ground is still sinking deeply, but since the ground is so big that it collapses, it's because I'm worried about falling vertically.

However, I was only worried about the snow. Kim Su-hyun lightly kicked at the top of the leap or in the air, and came back as he did.

Once, twice, three times....

Worried users stared at the air with a blank eye. It wasn't aimed at the ground. It was an ability to go around the skies without being seen or heard before.

For several times in a row, Don Kim Su-hyun was able to reach the shadow hills where users gathered, beyond the impact of the ground collapsing in exactly eight times.

Pussy!

“Whew.”

Kim Su-hyun landed on the hill and sighed deeply while placing down the surrounding new Jae-ryong. The gaze of all users was directed to Kim Soo-hyun.

Han So-young was waiting for Kim Soo-hyun in the beginning, and was watching. I noticed the dust covered in sweat. It doesn't look ugly at all. At least Han So-young knows why Kim Soo-hyun is doing that.... That's why even the illusion seemed to shine brightly, even though the color was shiny.

“… here you are. ”

Han So-young broke the silence and said.

“It's a little late. ”

Kim Soo-hyun immediately replied that it was nothing.

It was then.

Currrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

As if waiting for Kim Soo-hyun to come out, the pit quickly began to sink, collapsing even the part that had been barely holding on so far.

But it's okay now. It doesn't matter whether it collapses or not.

Most of the users have already escaped safely, but Kim Soo-hyun has also managed to get out of the pit by magnetism.

This concludes it all.

… No, it wasn't completely finished.

Suddenly, Han So-young felt the hot heat rising around her. Some users, precisely those who participated in the pit raid, were sending strange glances.

The longing eyes. Even Kim Soo-hyun, who has just escaped, is still waiting for Han So-young, calming down his clan members who are about to run out right now.

Yeah, there's still one left.

Han So-young realized what the users wanted and immediately took off her lips.

“We've completed the Operation Sinkhole raid. ”

You raise your fist slowly, but in the air.

“With this time, I declare that the attack on the Second Steel Mountains of the Southern Expedition is also over. ”

And as soon as the full attack declaration fell, a huge shout sounded out, as if waiting.

“Waaaahhhh!”

“Hooray! It's over! It's finally over!”

With the official declaration of the total commander, the Southern expedition finally marked a stop on the second region of the Steel Mountains.

“Shit, that's great! That's great!”

“Clan Lord! Clan Lord! Why can't you see my clan lord? ”

“Huff…. Huuuhhh…."

“Brother!”

The cheerfulness changed to diversity depending on the position of each user. Some users hugged and rejoiced with each other, looked for someone they didn't see, sat down crying, or ran towards someone.

Just by attacking the pit, I didn't see this.

From the horror I felt when the monster first appeared to the anxiety of the pit collapsing. It all turned into a sense of achievement and a sense of relief that I had lived in this moment, and it was bringing excitement to the users.

“Congratulations, Gun Commander. ”

“You've done a great job. Istantel Low Road. ”

Han So-young nodded at the convention pouring out around her, but continued to look at Kim Soo-hyun.

In fact, Han Soyoung wanted to celebrate this happy situation. I really wanted to wait, but I also wanted to say I'm sorry I couldn't wait until the end.

However, those who really wanted to celebrate were already surrounded by layers of their clan members.

Eyjeong gave Kim Soo-hyun a kiss, shouting in a voice that she never knew. All the other members of the mercenary clan have gathered to Kim Soo-hyun in a panic to complete the raid. However, Kim Soo-hyun was waving his head with an annoying face and pointing at Shin Jae-ryong.

After staring at it for a long time, Han Soyoung barely looked away and turned away. Then I thought quietly, nodding with a dry nod to the voices I heard around me.

The attack on the Southern expedition's Steel Mountains is over, but there's still work to be done.

However….

I think it would be better to enjoy this joy a little more today.

The day after the pit raid is over.

As soon as it was morning, Han So-young instructed me to rest another day under the name of maintenance. Of course, not all breaks were targeted, but only those who participated in the pit raid.

Users who were not present were instructed to stand guard, take care of the injured, or explore the appropriate places around them, and residents were now instructed to prepare to build forts.

Unattended users did not complain in any way about the direction of such a suit. I was a little skeptical because there were users who were 'invisible' in the beginning, and I was surprised to hear about the attack overnight. Who would have thought such an enormous monster would be lurking in the pit?

After all, the only thing the users could do was listen to the story and comfort it.

Time flies so quickly that the sunset sets as it sets.

An-hyun woke up when it was almost time for dinner. As soon as An-hyun opened his eyes, he felt extremely hungry. An-hyun's exhausted body demanded sleep immediately after the expedition was shortened, and after a long time, she fell asleep for more than a day. It was natural that I felt empty because I hadn't eaten anything.

“ ……. ”

There is no one in the tent. An-hyun, who stumbled around reflexively, realized that he didn't see his black spear. Did someone move it somewhere else? I felt a little empty.

Just when I was preparing dinner outside, Ahn Hyun woke up to the island of Juju with a strange sound and a pungent smell. And as I was about to step out of the tent again, I stopped walking to see the woman who passed the tent, technically. The thin woman who stretched her long, fair hair was left behind after the sword.

Namda also stopped to see if she saw Ahn Hyun coming out. Ami, who doesn't look like him, shakes slightly. Then, soon, my lips were wide open.

“Now, you're awake. ”

The moment she heard that, An-hyun doubted her ears for a moment. It was very unusual for others to speak first, except for a certain number of people. Especially if the opponent is a man. (Except for one, of course.)

However, she did not pretend to be very ignorant, but it was difficult for her to speak without hesitation when she saw the attitude. Do you feel a little distanced?

As her cold sunken eyes stared at her, Ahn hyun nodded quickly.

“Yes, yes. Well, yes. I'm sorry to wake up so late. I'm so tired... ”

“… Huh? There's no need to be sorry about today's resting order anyway. ”

“Well, is that so? ”

“Yes, you haven't heard. You've been asleep all day. ”

Are they talking or are they just talking?

Glug glug!

Around the time he tilted his head in his uncontrollable tone, a sudden boiling sound rang in his stomach. An-hyun blinked his eyes with a slightly embarrassed face, but no facial expression changes were seen except for a brief glance.

“You'd better eat. I'm just getting dinner ready. ”

“Yes. That…. You should.”

“Well, take care. ”

“Oh. What about you, Ahjussi? ”

The rest of the steps have stopped. And for a moment, I looked at Ahn Hyun, and he opened his mouth.

“I appreciate the offer, but I'll take care of my meals. ”

After saying that, I immediately turned around and disappeared to one side, leaving a cool wind behind.

An-hyun shrugged her shoulders, wondering if she made a mistake. It was because I felt like I had to solve an empty feeling of wanting to slowly burn.

Soon after arriving at the great bonfire, Ahn Hyun was able to see the members of the mercenary clan in the middle of a meal. In the middle, Im Hannah was skillfully trimming the ingredients, sticking the meat into the skewers, and making fun of her hands.

“Oh, here comes the string. ”

Soon, Ahn Hyun approached quietly, Imhanna turned her head and pretended to know him as a gentle voice. An-hyun gently nodded his head.

“Yes, sister. I just woke up.But time... ”

“Yes. I didn't wake you on purpose because I thought you were tired. ”

“Oh, I heard. I didn't have any resting order for another day today... ”

“Oh, really? That's all I needed to hear. Anyway, welcome. You must be hungry. ”

Imhan took care of An-hyun as if she were his sister. Soon, when I slowly sat down, the clan members who were waiting for Ahn Hyun to sit down turned their gaze at the same time.

“Hey, An-hyun. As soon as I got here... ”

“He just woke up. And I'm eating. ”

Soon after Jung-min opened his mouth, Imhanna politely spoke, but she was cut off by a dagger.

“… No. Just come on in. ”

Then the friendly took a good look at me, and gave a ritual greeting to welcome me with a trembling tone. Then I began to devote myself to eating quietly again.

An-hyun felt something strange. As soon as I sat down, I expected questions to be poured out, but no one was opening their mouth. I know you want to be considerate, but... An-hyun did not erase anything strange. I mean, does it feel like there's not enough?

Tak!

“Here.”

At that time, Imhanna put the plate down in front of Ahn Hyun. A juicy loaf of meat and stew, and a glass of aromatic liquor. I was very hungry, but Ahn Hyun did not immediately touch me.

“Hey, Hannah. By any chance..."

“Don't worry. Jae Dragon is safe with you and Miss Helena. ”

As if she knew to ask the question, Imhanna immediately replied.

“Oh, really? ”

“That's right. Both of you are still unconscious... The sole is sticking up all night, so you don't have to worry. I've heard that it doesn't cost me my life. ”

Imhanna gently patted An-hyun's shoulder as if she really didn't need to worry.

“… I'm glad. ”

An-hyun nodded quietly. And then I started eating.

That's how long it's been.

A big fire rises from the campfire, and the smoke rises high in the sky. Beyond the smoke that was scattered into the air, the deep night sky was shining a beautiful starlight.

“Phew... This is crazy.”

After finishing eating, Ahn Hyun came out and walked alone and lay down in a quiet place. Seeing the open night sky, a deep sigh came out. It's because the subtle feeling that I felt at the time of the meal, or actually when I first woke up, was continuing to circulate throughout the body.

Everything went well.

We hit the pit, and our men saved their lives.

Then why do I still feel like I don't know what that means?

Why do I always feel like I'm dreaming?

The chains seem to be holding fast.

An-hyun closed her eyes calmly and stuttered her memory as her heart burst.

From the moment I first entered the pit to the time I rode the mining train out of the pit. Across the corridor, fighting monsters, encountering giant monsters, chasing other monsters, fighting again, barely winning...

It was then.

“… Ah. ”

The moment I remembered fighting Joo Hyunho, Ahn Hyun held both his fists tightly. The feeling of emptiness became stronger.

“What are you doing here by yourself? ”

Suddenly, I heard a familiar bass somewhere. An-hyun opened her eyes and saw the user looking down at her from above. Kim Soo-hyun suddenly lifted her head when she arrived.

“Tongue, brother?! ”

An-hyun tried to get up, but immediately stopped.

“It's okay. Lie down. ”

Kim Soo-hyun shakes his hands as if it were okay, and then sits down to his side.

“Ha…. I'm exhausted.You too... Oh, you don't smoke. ”

While I didn't know what to do, I suddenly heard the sound of a small fire. Kim Soo-hyun took out the candle and lit a fire. An-hyun opened his mouth carefully.

“Brother, where have you been all these years? You didn't see me at dinner. ”

“I couldn't eat. I was busy. I had to go to the wounded and find the right place to build a fort. ”

“Yes? Why would you...? You don't have a resting order. ”

“... because I don't need to rest. ”

Kim Soo-hyun muttered quietly, suddenly, she glanced at An-hyun. An-hyun instinctively swallowed saliva.

“An Hyun.”

“Yes.”

“Nothing has changed. We're still in the middle of the Steel Mountains, and we need to keep going for a while longer. I'm not celebrating going back to Clan House and finishing an expedition. ”

“ ……? ”

“I'm talking to you. We hit a hole, it's not the end. So this is the difference between an official expedition and an expedition. ”

“Yes, I know that much. ”

An-hyun replied with the expression that it was natural. Suddenly, Kim Soo-hyun, who spit out the smoke, smiled.

“Huh. Then why are you trembling?... like a dreamer. ”

“Me? Me? ”

I felt my heart burning, even though I didn't feel like An-hyun. I thought about it quietly. Did he?

It was clear that Ahn Hyun's body condition was as Kim Soo-hyun said, but I did not forget the basic purpose of this expedition. He felt strange now because there was something else.

An-hyun, who thought that way, shook her head.

“… No. I know what my brother said... It's just a dream. Everything that happened in the pit.... ”

“Hmm, really? What, did something shocking happen to you? ”

“Is that so? … I don't know. I can't seem to catch anything... I feel like there's not enough... It's empty. Why is it really doing this? ”

“ ……. ”

Maybe it's because Ahn Hyun's voice is unusual.

On the other hand, Ahn Hyun's behavior seems quite strange from earlier. Her mouth is open, her hands are pointless, and her body is loosened.

However, their eyes are blurry, but they have a light that they do not know as if they are craving something.

He doesn't seem to know it himself.

Kim Soo-hyun stared at An-hyun with a slightly sunken, vague-looking eyes.

In that state, there was a slight silence.

After a while, Kim Soo-hyun gave a false laugh and calmly patted me on the side.

“Phew. Is that what this is? ”

“What do you mean? ”

“… No. Are you…. ”

“Yes?”

Suddenly, something swooped down on Ahn Hyun's abdomen. A slight shock. When Ahn Hyun was puzzled and patted his abdomen, he suddenly felt his hands full with a pole.

At that moment, Ahn Hyun opened his eyes slightly, swallowing his breath. He felt a little empty.

“Now, do you want to fight? ”

“! ”

And as soon as Kim Soo-hyun's words continued, Ahn hurled a big breath that he swallowed.

I want to fight.

Like then, I want to fight again, pulling everything out.

An-hyun raised his upper body without my knowledge. I felt a sudden awakening, like I had been struck by cold water.

Ah, an hour behind schedule. The writing itself ended a little after one o'clock, but the retirement took a lot longer than expected. -_-a But it still feels like the pace is getting better. I'm focusing on not puncturing for a while, but I think I'll be able to keep my midnight reinstatement in mind soon.:)

This part consists of a total of 4 times, two lightly resting parts and the other two situational cleanup parts. If the previous two focused on organizing the inner parts of people, the latter two focused on organizing the revealed situations. If you've seen the battle with Juhyun before, I think you know what this subtitle means.: D
