The More the Healer Gets Hit the Stronger He Become

64 – Destiny (2)

“Wow, I met a wizard on the 31st floor?? “I haven’t met you even once during this random ordeal…!!”

It’s been a while since I walked with Yoo Seung-ah, who didn’t answer when I asked if she wanted to go with me, but instead kept asking me questions like “Do you really have a friend?” And “Where did you make your friends?”

[Time remaining until trial begins: 07:24]

Kang-woo, who had already left the safe zone, stopped walking after checking the convenience store in the distance.

“Have you really never met a wizard?”

“Yes! “I heard it’s not just me, my sister is like that too.”

Kang-woo and Yoo Seung-ah’s eyes simultaneously turned to Choi Seo-hee. Choi Seo-hee, who was quietly listening to their conversation, nods her head slightly.

‘Keuhum.’

For as many as eight trials since meeting the wizard and healer on the 31st floor, Kang-woo’s eyes rolled back as he cursed at the reality that he could not even see the healer, let alone the wizard.

He had been criticizing the team placement so much, but he said it was just his luck…

“Anyway, those people just went to pick up their colleague, right?”

Kang-woo, who was embarrassed by the unexpected truth, nodded his head to Yoo Seung-ah’s question.

Then Lee Jeong-min, who was following, expressed his dissatisfaction.

“I’ve only met these people once, so can I really trust them?”

“Oh, brother…!”

“No, that’s right. “What do people you’ve only met once believe in and go through an ordeal together?”

Yoo Seung-ah’s complexion turned blue at Lee Jeong-min’s sudden outburst of displeasure. As she looked at Kang-woo, she didn’t know what to do, but this time Choi Seo-hee opened her mouth.

“……That is correct.”

“Uh, sister…?”

In an instant, a cold silence fell around the group. Yoo Seung-ah, who belatedly comforted Kang-woo by saying that she is okay, freezes in response to Choi Seo-hee’s opposition.

‘……What is it?’

In that unexpected situation, Kang-woo quickly glanced at the faces of the four people.

If it were Lee Jeong-min, I would have expected him to do something like that at least once, but I never thought even Choi Seo-hee would express concern….

It was not a matter of coming together to talk separately, but rather an open opposition that took place in the presence of everyone. This was not like Choi Seo-hee.

Kang-woo’s complexion darkened when he saw the embarrassed Yoo Seung-ah and the expressionless Hwang Yi-seo.

In this tower, there was an obvious reason to show distrust toward other awakened people.

‘In a random trial… did you encounter a looter…?’

It looks like something happened… Choi Seo-hee and Lee Jeong-min. It seemed like it was those two.

‘Damn bastards.’

After understanding the situation, Kang-woo took a long breath to relieve his anger.

When I think of my colleagues going through that damn thing, I feel enraged.

Even if we all unite as one and overcome the danger, it won’t be enough, so I dare you. To swing a sword against a fellow awakened person…!

Kang-woo, who stood silently for a long time due to his rising anger, carefully opened his mouth, one letter at a time, only when Yoo Seung-ah began to cry over the continued standoff.

“I understand… What you mean.”

“….”

“……But.”

Kangwoo still clearly remembered Park Yerin saying that her goal was to become stronger than anyone else, to the point where she could stop the seeds of monsters in modern times.

Eyes burning with anger and fists clenched tightly.

How can I forget the burning spirit of that battle?

As long as her mindset does not change, Park Ye-rin, who handles the scorching flames, was by far one of the most reliable allies in this ordeal.

‘Kim Seung-ho….’

It may seem a bit foolish to call out to him every chance he gets.

In the 41st floor trial, even though it had been around long enough to find out that there was a barrier around the Awakened Association and that it functioned like a safe zone.

He was a healer who couldn’t do anything on his own, but he was a foolish bastard who waited for him without finding a single ally.

With only one intention to return the favor.

If that foolish guy is a looter… A deep faith appeared in Kang-woo’s eyes as he looked at Choi Seo-hee and Lee Jeong-min.

If that guy was a predator, Kang-woo no longer had the confidence to trust anyone.

“I am Park Ye-rin and Kim Seung-ho. “I trust those two people.”

Silence fell upon Kangwoo’s firm voice.

A little time passed as each person seemed to be in trouble.

“……You, you don’t give a guarantee to just anyone.”

Starting with Lee Jeong-min’s playful voice as he shakes his head.

“I’ll trust Kangwoo… Just once.”

Choi Seo-hee nodded her head slightly.

“I believed it from the beginning!”

Yoo Seung-ah, her eyes sparkling.

“… Well, I don’t care.”

When Hwang Yi-seo, who had been standing silently, shrugged his shoulders.

“Nooooo-!!”

Everyone’s eyes turned to the bright voice that suddenly came out. Then, in the distance, Kim Seung-ho is seen banging loudly on the window of a convenience store.

“Come quickly!”

“Oh? “That colleague I mentioned earlier?”

It was the moment when Yoo Seung-ah, who had an affinity that surpassed that of ordinary people, and Kim Seung-ho, who was no less powerful, met.

***

“Hello! My name is Seungho Kim, I’m 20 years old and my position is healer! The ability is ‘sacred flame’-“

“Ah! We’re both 20 years old! Nice to meet you! “I’m Yoo Seung-ya!”

“Oooh! You are a friend! Nice to meet you! “I was curious because I heard they were Kangwoo-hyung’s colleagues, but as expected, our Kangwoo-hyung is-“

“Huh? Kangwoo is the same age as us? “Why do you call me brother?”

“Huh? “Isn’t Kang Woo-hyung 21 years old?”

It’s noisy. That too, a lot.

“….”

“….”

Excluding Park Ye-rin, who had not yet arrived, four people from Yoo Seung-ah’s party and one colleague brought by Kim Seung-ho, five out of seven people remained silent, but the audio did not become empty.

“Wow, why did I know I was 21? Did I mishear during the introduction?”

“…You misunderstood. Even if that were the case, why didn’t Kang-woo say anything…? Didn’t Kang-woo know that you were 20 years old? It’s not? “Only adults can enter the tower?”

“….”

I didn’t know.

Kim Seung-ho’s actions were so much like that of a younger brother that I thought he was really my younger brother.

‘He’s the same age as me?’

While Kang-woo was in shock, Kim Seung-ho also shuddered.

“I can’t believe Kang Woo-hyung is the same age as me…! Kang Woo-hyung… He’s really like my older brother!”

“hahahahaha! I think you know what I mean. “There’s a bit of rainfall-“

They did not seem to be that important in asking Kang-woo and revealing the truth about ‘Why did Kang-woo let Kim Seung-ho call him brother?’

Even though the person was right next to me, I saw them continuing to talk about another topic without thinking, saying, ‘I guess we just misunderstood each other~’.

“That’s why I then-“

We had discussed in advance that we would begin the self-introduction when Park Ye-rin arrived.

“Wow! Really? “Of course it’s Kang Woo-hyung!”

I didn’t even know that I would regret that choice forever.

“There was a bit of rain-“

Whether it’s the hassle of introducing yourself twice or something. I just had to get started.

If that were the case, we wouldn’t have had to suffer from the constant chatter between the two.

“….”

As Kang-woo was blankly watching the two chatting with a shocked face, Lee Jeong-min quietly approached next to him and asked.

“……When is your colleague coming?”

When I turn my head, I see Lee Jeong-min’s face, which is as pale as his own.

‘The reason why he spoke so kindly to Seung-ah was not because she was a younger sister than him…’

Are you just weak to that type?

With the new information, Kang-woo was determined to leave a message to Kim Seung-ho to stay close to Lee Jung-min.

“……Two Kim Seung-ho?”

Now, at this moment, with a unique cold voice that feels so welcoming.

[Time limit has expired.]

[The 41st ordeal begins.]

“Huh…? “uuu!”

“aaa-!

All the Awakened people in the park within the Awakened Association, which is the Safe Zone, began to be expelled out of the Safe Zone at once.

“aaahhh-!!”

I was being dragged down as if I was being sucked into a black gate that suddenly appeared beneath my feet.

***

“Wow, it’s bloody.”

Kim Seung-ho, who was watching the scene through the convenience store window, stuck out his tongue.

“No, no matter what, I think moving it like that is a bit too much…”

People who were dragged down by the gate that appeared under their feet burst out of the black gate that appeared in the air outside the safe zone! Kim Seung-ho, who saw the fall, looked completely shocked.

Although he did not say anything, everyone in the convenience store remained silent and agreed with his opinion.

“…It was a good thing I came out in advance to catch the rain.”

Yoo Seung-ah’s voice expressing her relief rang out softly. If I imagined that I might have been in that crowd and had to experience the sinking of my feet… Just thinking about it made my heart flutter.

But that was then.

“Hey, what is that…!”

“Three, oh my…! “That’s too much…!!”

The commotion outside, which seemed to have died down, started to become noisy again.

Kangwoo realized that everyone’s eyes were focused on one place and turned his head. Then, between the advertising posters on the convenience store windows, a familiar yet unfamiliar scene caught my eye.

“Maybe that is….”

Choi Seo-hee, seeing the same thing as Kang-woo, stiffened her body.

“Yes… That’s right.”

She had Kangwoo who was frozen just like her. It was her afterword that she could not possibly forget.

“Gate… Yes.”

A gate so huge that its size is hard to imagine even though it is far away. Looking at that, Kang-woo intuitively realized this.

Blocking that gate brake is the subject of this ordeal.
