episode_0220

It was a few minutes ago.

This happened right after Shibasaki Ryuko left the barracks shaking.

As soon as she left, Saint Gaki burst into tears.

It’s like if you touch it, it’s going to cry…

“Whoa!!”

“Whaaa!!”

no. I already cried.

Shinbitgaram, who was watching this, also cried like a child and ran to the two and hugged them.

Each of the saintly gaki clung to Shinbitgaram’s arm and cried loudly.

“Ugh, I’m sorry. we… Because we feel stupid… I couldn’t say anything and just trembled… ”

“Sniff. I was scared. I couldn’t resist… Just looking at your eyes made my stomach tingle.”

“… are you okay. it’s okay. Now it’s all over.”

Like a merciful mother, Shinbitgaram hugged them both and patted them.

I watched it and smiled faintly.

With this, I somehow succeeded in getting over the first hurdle.

‘… Is this the real start?’

I looked at Suokbin.

She made eye contact with me, with her arms crossed and a smile as beautiful as her appearance.

I sent the signal I had shared with her beforehand.

Suokbin understood right away and winked prettily.

“Don’t worry. I will never miss Ryuko Shibasaki. Please trust me. Yoo Se-ha.”

“Of course. I believe it.”

Suokbin and I smiled slightly at each other.

And I don’t know why, but Peng Jin-a looks at me sullenly.

“… Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm!”

“Professor?”

“Master!”

“Ah, your master.”

There was a skit that soon followed and winked for no reason, but I just ignored it.

Qarring-!!!

A roar echoed in the sky.

At the same time, a blitz of blue light spreads out.

The cries of the crusaders struggling in agony could be heard vividly in my ears.

There was no more time.

I had to move quickly.

“Senior.”

“… Yes, I know. Junior.”

Shinbitgaram wiped away her tears and looked at the two saintly gaki.

“I’m sorry. Holy woman. One o’clock is urgent. Could you please wait patiently for a moment?”

“Yes!”

“Of course!”

He looked towards me.

No, it’s not just her.

Everyone, from Su Ok-bin to Peng Jin-ah, looked at me with eyes full of faith.

“… Junior Yoo Se-ha. Please.”

“… … ”

“I know very well that there is a burden on my junior. But in this situation, time is running out. The only person who can defeat Kirin is your junior-”

-Tuk.

I put my hand on Shinbitgaram’s head and made him stop talking.

Then, I stroked it several times, feeling a soft texture that was different from other children I had touched before.

Shinbitgaram’s face turned red.

“ne, neuen. Huh?!”

“You don’t have to bow your head. Do not worry. The stage is set up like this, but I have no intention of showing my ferocious side.”

“… Junior.”

I closed my eyes for a moment.

It means asking for guidance.

Actually, I hesitated.

Up until now, I have been the one who has planned the most efficient strategy, naturally assuming sacrifice.

Can things change now? A feeling of fear came over me.

‘But you still have to do it.’

If I can come forward and save it…

If you have to…

I will move forward without hesitation.

‘But before that!’

I know it’s not the time, but I need to add some cute ingredients.

I made a lot of great resolutions, but I couldn’t get my head around it.

In times like this, you have to feel something sweeter.

As a side note, let’s leave ‘that’ buried for a bit.

I approached the whimpering Saint Gaki and placed my hand on her head.

“… King Hu?”

“… Wow?”

Then he laughed like a bad boy and randomly messed up the two jammins’ hair.

Even though I didn’t have any flesh, I was able to pull on the cheeks that were still soft and clattering.

“Ding-dong ding-dong ding-dong ding-dong!”

“DockingDockingDockingDocking!”

Well, it’s a bit disappointing that it wasn’t muaana yongaana hong eng eng, but it was a powerful enough onomatopoeia.

“Our saints. This oppa will solve it nicely, so stop crying and eat snacks in the corner.”

“Woo, woo… ! Oh, don’t act cool!”

“Wow, it’s cool… ”

“… U, Yuri?”

*

“Here it is. Yoo Se-ha.”

I held in my hand the item Suokbin gave me.

I was used to it.

A small stick-shaped artifact.

It was a magic tool for strategy simulation that Professor Kankanmi taught how to use.

I activated the magic tool and quickly explained about the giraffe.

Its patterns and characteristics.

And there are 3 ‘mak-i’ type patterns that can’t be beat.

As they all believed and trusted me, there was no question about how I knew that.

“This is the strategy pattern of the Four Gods of Death, ‘Kirin’.”

“… Indeed, it’s easier than you think once you know how.”

“Instead, if you do not have any prior knowledge, it is a structure that is bound to take a long time. Kirin is an S-class monster with exceptionally high growth potential. Taking that characteristic into account, you would have to prepare for virtually annihilation.”

“As expected, junior… Thanks to you, I see hope!”

Shinbitgaram lifted the conch shell on the table.

It was a relic exclusive to the that could give orders to all who participated.

Shinbitgaram held it and looked at me again.

“Junior. Now how does the operation work… ?”

“… … ”

It was important from here.

Deep in my heart.

The desire to pursue only efficiency and proceed with operations based on the natural premise of ‘sacrifice’ suddenly arose.

He whispered in my ear. Let’s adopt a method that is most efficient, taking into account damage to a small number of people and increasing the probability of success.

“… Seniors. From now on, I would like to ask you to give orders to those who give priority to me first.”

“Yes!”

About 5 seconds.

After finishing all my thoughts, I handed over the operation in earnest.

* * *

“… ”

With drops of blood flowing, the man let out a low curse.

The man with a face that shows signs of age is 35 years old this year.

It was Bae Han-su, the main tank of and a B-class crusader.

Currently, he was dying.

Quarrrn while at all

A thunderstorm swirling and spreading.

I heard that in the past, our ancestors believed that lightning struck when God was angry.

Bae Han-soo thought that it was definitely worth it.

Kwakwakwa-!!!

The shield shook like crazy and heated up red.

The lightning that struck directly moved like a sharp saw blade and struck the shield as if it would break it.

Currently, Bae Han-su was in the lead position to defend against Kirin’s attack on the front line.

The 150 comrades who had gone through hardships alongside him were raising their shields.

“… Fuck.”

“No operation has arrived yet, right?”

“… They say just hold on.”

“Ehey tsk. This is it.”

“Don’t be unlucky! You bastard.”

Everyone was pushed to their limits.

This was the same for Bae Han-soo.

Bae Han-su thought as he blocked Kirin’s lightning strike again.

‘Ah, this place… ‘It’s my grave.’

I didn’t particularly value my life.

He already swore that he would sacrifice his life for the Lord when he joined the team.

It was an honorable martyrdom that returned to the arms of God.

but… I was a little anxious.

Bae Han-su’s anxiety was that his death would just be a dog’s death. That was so scary.

We’re probably all thinking the same thing.

Bae Han-su glanced back.

Even though they were pushed to their limit, there were no additional words for the operation order.

Hang in there. Just hang in there.

‘… Six o’clock. ‘You’re literally telling me to become a meat shield.’

bang-!!!

Is it because I let go of the tension?

I thought the lightning I blocked was especially painful.

Bae Han-su looked up at the sky through the gap in the shield.

Dark clouds were swirling, and the blue light source was spitting out red-hot anger.

The high-rise buildings had already been completely blackened and reduced to ashes.

Above the perforation.

A giraffe with a thundercloud wrapped around its body began to gather massive amounts of electricity into its horns.

Bae Han-su raised his shield in response to another attack.

We will do our best to block it once again!

The moment you think like that.

“Uh… ?”

I felt my strength diminishing.

The exhilaration and warmth in my body disappeared in an instant.

Bae Han-su looked around with the feeling of ‘no way’.

It was cut off.

All the supported buffs and heals have completely disappeared.

“… Ha, fuck.”

Bae Han-su understood the situation.

In the end, the official priests, who had been struggling to the point where their eyes and ears were bleeding, were unable to hold on and collapsed.

A thunderstorm that gathers together.

Bae Han-soo realized his death when he saw the huge blue thunder tree engraved in the sky.

This was the same for his bamboo horse next to him.

“Ceeee haircut! If I had known this would happen, I would have confessed to the cheating lady!”

“Oh, I heard you won the after-study application this time?”

“I was going to make a nice confession after this subjugation was over… !”

Bae Han-soo chuckled.

As I saw my friend expressing regret and not leaving a will, I thought that I would not be lonely on the way to the underworld.

Crumbling-!!!!!

Bae Han-su closed his eyes.

One last thought.

Please, I hope your death has some meaning.

I hope everything helps the …

However, nothing special happened as time passed.

“Hmm?”

Bae Han-su opened his eyes.

And then I made eye contact with a woman with a familiar face.

“Senior! Are you okay?”

“… Uh, huh? hani? Yes, why are you here!”

He was a knight who came in as a direct junior of Bae Han-su.

Because he was a sergeant knight, he was the one who retreated to the rear due to his lack of proper tanking ability.

Bae Han-soo soon realized that his junior was now blocking the giraffe’s thunderstorm.

No, she’s not alone.

“Stop it! We’re proceeding according to plan!”

“You can do it! Everyone unite!”

All the sergeant knights, who were judged to be unhelpful, lined up with each other and blocked the lightning strike.

Like a honeycomb, they perfectly complemented each other’s gaps, creating a wall of shields.

That shield here.

There was something shiny on it.

“Well, what is that?”

“I don’t know either! It’s just a potion that blocks lightning… ”

“There was such a thing?”

“The association provided support!”

“Association?”

Bae Han-su was dumbfounded.

Then, I was surprised again by the sight of priests coming in from the side.

Likewise, they were trainee priests who were judged to be of no help and were in the rearguard.

Apprentice priests are good at serving knights! He clung to me and cast [Healing].

Bae Han-su was impressed by that sight.

The problem with trainee priests was that there was a lot of waste when casting long-distance holy methods.

However, if the distance was this close, there was little waste of holy power, so even a trainee priest could heal sufficiently.

bang-!!!

The Servant Knight blocks the lightning again and receives recovery.

“Senior, please step aside! Now we will stop this place!”

“Uh, uh… ”

Bae Han-soo, with a bewildered expression, stepped back as he was guided by the hands of his colleagues.

A few remaining priests rushed over and handed him potions.

Bae Han-soo, who takes one shot in one go.

Soon, a woman’s voice was heard in my ear.

It wasn’t like someone specifically approached me and said something, it was some kind of telepathy.

To be exact, it was the power of the team command artifact.

The woman, who called herself Shinbitgaram, led the operation in an orderly manner.

‘Has this woman come up with this incredible plan?’

no. Listening silently…

I could tell that it was another man who was giving detailed orders and operational arrangements.

From his unique, childish voice, I could guess that he had just become an adult.

Tuk-tuk.

The surviving dead horse pointed ahead.

“Hey, hey Bae Hansu! The person ordering the operation now… Does he look like that kid?”

“What? Child?”

Bae Han-su looked away and was astonished.

A group running towards the dangerous leader.

Among them, there is a handsome boy at the forefront who shouts urgently and gives orders quickly.

A young boy who seemed to have no connection to such a rough and threatening battlefield was running to the most dangerous place.

Bae Han-su couldn’t believe it.

The darkness of defeat.

Taking it away and finding the light.

I couldn’t believe that he was just such a child.
