Chapter 694: Let’s Prepare The End (3)

I could feel her hands shaking. Her eyes were dyed with regret, and her face was only getting more and more distorted.

Collapsing and screaming was all that Jung Hayan could do. No one would be able to disagree that she was no longer in a situation where she could make sound judgments. Jung Hayan was rapidly falling apart.

‘And Han Sora… is Han Sora okay?’

I was also flustered, but I thought that the first step was to stabilize Jung Hayan. It was hard to maintain my composure. However, I thought that either one of us should be alert. If even I entered a condition in which I couldn’t make a rational decision…

‘That’s what they want.’

The more we were shaken internally, the more they would scream happily. That was originally their purpose, after all. They had to make humanity lose the will to fight as one and to attack from the inside out.

I didn’t know why they were trying to threaten the continent that much, using that method. It also wasn’t clear why Han Sora had such an unfortunate threat.

However, it was something that I could quickly recall what they probably aimed for.

‘It’s me.’

It was Lee Kiyoung that they really tried to get through Park Mijin. Their real purpose wasn’t Han Sora but Lee Kiyoung. In a way, no, very clearly, she was just swept along with it. All because of Lee Kiyoung’s incompetence.

‘I didn’t grow?’

I thought I had grown. I went through so many things that I thought I had moved a little bit forward. However, I was still at a standstill in the end.

Demon worshipper Ito Souta, demon summoner Jin Qing, and many other demonic officials.

I was tricked by them all in the same way…

Lee Kiyoung was still in the same place. He vowed that he would protect the continent and everyone, but he was nothing more than an idiot who couldn’t protect one of his own people.

I felt tremendous guilt weighing down on me. My legs were trembling, and I wanted to collapse. However, there was no way I could do that.

I determined that I could no longer lose my companions, becoming one of those small determinations that made present Lee Kiyoung stand in that position. That much was enough. I didn’t think it was terrible if it’s that level of emotion.

‘Hayan… fuck.’

The problem wasn’t me, but Hayan. She couldn’t speak as if she had aphasia after screaming.

I was worried if she could see properly with all the tears in her eyes.

She seemed to have forgotten that she had to go to Sora as soon as possible. No, she wasn’t in a state of being able to chant spells in the first place.

‘Ah… Is it right to show Han Sora now?’

Jung Hayan, who had to take one step forward, had retreated about five steps instead.

Perhaps she didn’t have the courage to see Han Sora. It seemed that she was afraid, considering her whole body was trembling.

She was afraid of what resulted from ignoring and pushing her close friend, and the worst thing that had happened due to her own mistake.

All I could do was lower my head and look straight at her face.

‘You can’t collapse.’

Of course, if I collapsed there, everything would become a futile effort. I had to say something.

“It’s not too late yet.”

“…”

“Hayan.”

“…”

“It’s not your fault.”

“…”

“It’ll be fine. Definitely.”

“…”

“Are you going to stay like this here?”

“Uh… uh…”

“Wake up. You have to go to Sora.”

“Sora… S-S-Sora… Sora…”

“She’s still alive.”

“Ah… S-Sora…”

“She will… she will definitely be alive.”

She was indeed alive. Only then did she come to her senses and wipe her tears. She thought she should chant the spell, but it seemed that she couldn’t.

It wasn’t like Jung Hayan at all. It didn’t take long for me to realize that she would either soar or plunge.

[Generating a common-grade forced quest.]

[We’re going now. We’re going. She’s chanting the spell, so get ready. (0/1)]

[Delivering a common-grade forced quest to Han Sora. You have not registered any quest-clear rewards. The subject will not be compensated.]

‘If this gets fucking ruined, I might just have to run away.’

I would have no choice to tell Max to set up Noah’s ark.

[A common-grade forced quest has been activated.]

[Oh, no… no… junior Lee Kiyoung. You’re not serious… are you? (0/1)]

Unfortunately, I was.

[A common-grade forced quest has been activated.]

[Is there anything I can do? I-I… (0/1)]

It was already out of Benignore’s hand.

‘Ah. Fuck. I shouldn’t have left it to Han Sora.’

While I doubted if I prepared adequately, Jung Hayan was about to chant the spell.

I started to get more and more nervous as I watched the casting continue to cancel, which usually wouldn’t have taken that long. I tried to reflect on whether I should have coached the roles or lines in more detail, but all I could at that moment was believe in Han Sora.

It was easy. If she just pretended to be dying, I would take care of everything.

‘Sora. Don’t let me down.’

But after Jung Hayan chanted the spell, when I saw Han Sora in front of me, I had no choice but to turn my head for a moment.

“…”

“…

‘What is this. Fuck. Why is this one’s taste like this?’

Quality was important, so I told her to pay more attention to the Mise-en-scene, but it looked more than I imagined.

‘Gosh… what. Fuck. Can she do this?’

I didn’t know who the hell she learned that from, but I thought I could see for sure that she didn’t choose to be a black wizard for no reason.

I also liked the teenager emotions, but the appearance of Han Sora had surpassed that level.

‘Did she go nuts? I mean, what the hell did she do? I mean, with this much, won’t Jung Hayan notice?’

Han Sora’s room was covered with a foreign light. My plan was only that much. I never ordered her to hang on to a tree of foreign light as if she was crucified.

I was relieved that at least the quality wasn’t bad.

Her whole body was shining with mysterious energy. Hence, it felt as if she was getting eaten by the tree at first glance. The visible parts of her face and hands bulged as if the tree’s branches had penetrated her body.

No, it looked like that the foreign tree germinated in Han Sora in the first place. Wouldn’t it be possible to interpret that the dirty foreign informant planted a disgusting seed inside her?

Interpreting it that way, it seemed probable.

‘Ah… seeing this…’

It looked cool. I knew what Han Sora pictured.

‘Still…’

It was too much. No matter how much I looked at it, I could only see it as too much of a setup.

Why wouldn’t I want Doom Sora to appear? I wanted to create a scene with Doom Sora that would make anyone cry if conditions were available, but I just had to do average acting.

I thought it was right to show a small but fruitful content than to make a giant board for no reason. That’s why I didn’t want something big from Han Sora. However, the problem had grown.

‘Ah… What? Fuck. Why did you make this so big?’

My head naturally blanked out instantly at the possibility of how much this would cost. The scene’s appearance deserved applause, but the actress wasn’t reliable, and I couldn’t get a sense of how to drag the remaining stories afterward. In the first place…

‘I mean, how did she do this?’

It wasn’t Han Sora’s dark magic, and it wasn’t the energy created by Sun Hee-young.

I was nervous because I wondered if the foreign informant really came, but I found the answer quickly and unexpectedly.

[A common-grade forced quest has been activated.]

[Junior Lee Kiyoung! Is this enough? (0/1)]

The problem was the goddess, who always appeared to make things even more complicated.

‘Fuck. Are you kidding me? Fuck.’

That was why Han Sora’s face was somewhat unnatural. She seemed to be disconcerted by what suddenly happened to her body.

She seemed to be doing that because she was told to do it, but it must’ve been scary for her. Suddenly a tree of light grew out of her body, and she was even hung on it…

She had never even heard Benigonre’s voice, so she was probably wondering what the hell that was… Wasn’t it natural to be scared if she thought I was getting rid of her without even knowing it?

[A common-grade forced quest has been activated.]

[It’s a bluff! Bluff! Believer Lee Kiyoung! I didn’t even use much divinity… (0/1)]

I didn’t know. I really didn’t. I couldn’t tell whether Jung Hayan, who had been involved in Park Deokgu’s prank, would suspect seeing that.

Naturally, I looked at her with a nervous face. It was then that she shed tears like waterfalls.

“S… So… is it really you?”

She had eyes saying that she couldn’t believe what she saw.

“Sora… are you really Sora?”

She questioned if the one with arms wide open and barely exhaling was really Han Sora, who was already being eaten by the foreign tree.

“O-Oppa… she’s not Sora, right? That… Sora… ugh… It’s not Sora. Sora… Sniff… Sniff…”

“…”

“Jung… Ha… yan.”

“…”

“…”

“Huh…”

“Jung… Ha…”

“She’s alive. S-she’s alive! She’s alive.”

“Yan…”

“I-I can save you.”

“…”

“I-I-I’ll save you… I can save you. I’ll save you. W-Wait. Wait. I-I mean… Sniff… I’ll… take you out of there now… I’ll take you out. T-Then everything is solved. That’ll do. Thank God. O-Oppa, she’s still alive. Sniff… Sniff… Thank God. Hic… Thank God… Sniff… Thank you. Thank you. God.”

“…”

“Waaah… waaaaah… Sora. Wait. W-Wait…”

‘This is actually working?’

[A common-grade forced quest has been activated.]

[My… My choice wasn’t wrong. (0/1)]

‘This is working? Really?’

It was a sight that could only be explained as beginner’s luck.

“Waaaah… waaahh… I’ll… I’ll save you now. Hic…”

A little flushed, Jung Hayan’s expression was highly evident.

I wondered if Hayan thought she could regain a happy life if she removed Sora from that tree since she was breathing. I noticed that she thought she was one step ahead.

Her legs seemed wobbly. She was in extreme tension and got relieved in a second. Perhaps that’s why her body weakened. Nevertheless, Jung Hayan was eagerly trying to move toward Han Sora. There was even a smile on her lips at that moment.

Of course, it was impossible for things to be solved like that. Jung Hayan stopped right after Han Sora opened her mouth again.

“Run…”

“…”

“Run away. If you stay here… you’ll be in danger too…”

She was right. There wasn’t much time left before the bomb that grew out of Han Sora’s body would explode. Just as the guys used Jung Hayan’s body as a material for a bomb in the first round…

Wouldn’t that be the perfect timing for me to say something at that point?

Something like…

“We’re too late.”
