Among the unique abilities, there are some that have the characteristic of ‘inheritance’.

It refers to the phenomenon in which the uniqueness of an individual is transferred to another individual.

Even by world standards, it is a very rare trait, and in most cases, it takes the form of ‘blood succession’, passed down to blood descendants.

The unique abilities of the three major families have the characteristic of succession.

A frightening disaster, a great sea and a great mountain.

As descendants of the progenitors, they inherited their uniqueness.

So it is understandable that Lee Ha-yool expressed his fear.

Although Lee Ha-yul is from an orphanage, he may have a blood relative from the Geuphwa clan. In fact, the Geuphwa clan also had that kind of blood relationship.

“… Mt. Taesan?”

I couldn’t understand why Taesan appeared.

The members of the Dark and Evil Unit blinked at the sound of Taesan from the summoned commanders around them and the life being sucked into Lee Ha-yool’s grasp.

“Changhae… ?”

Even that is being used simultaneously up to the Changhae.

The members of Man-gyeong and Chang-pa’s unit gaped in amazement at the water flow and ice that was hastily treating Lee Ha-yul’s body.

There is no precedent for the unique abilities of three generations of the family to be displayed simultaneously.

It is theoretically impossible to begin with.

It is a uniqueness that is too big and distinct. It is a uniqueness that coexists but also repulses.

It is impossible for such a uniqueness to be fully established in one body.

If it settles down? It’ll keep banging inside and eventually explode.

No matter how hard you try, you will have to live your whole life under the threat of self-destruction.

The interest rates are appearing simultaneously before our eyes.

And yet it doesn’t explode. It’s like they’ve each divided into their own areas… No, they’ve shared the areas and are still circulating normally.

A sight that didn’t make sense. Everyone was dumbfounded by the reality that was so far beyond common sense.

“Don’t look away─!”

It was at that moment. A loud voice struck my floating spirit.

It was Lee Ji-yeon’s order. She grabbed Lee Ha-yool’s right hand and carefully gave him some energy, then glared at the nervous unit members.

She was also shocked inside, but right now, Lee Ha-yool’s life was more important than that.

“This is not something to think about now! Stay alert!”

“… !Yes!”

“!… Huh? We are not Mt. Taesan… ”

The startled soldiers took up their positions.

Among them were members of the Cowardly and Creepy Unit. They acted reflexively in response to instructions that seemed to pierce their hearts and minds.

Lee Ji-yeon turned her head to Lee Ha-yool again. And then she bit her lip without realizing it.

‘Recovery is slow… both burns and general injuries. The wounds are too serious.’

Even though I am constantly giving energy to my right hand, which is craving energy, there is no significant difference.

It’s not just Lee Ji-yeon. Elia, Baek A-rin, and a dozen or so recovery-type superhumans are still attached to it.

“This is the limit of emergency measures. The remaining ones must be moved to a facility and processed.”

It was Elia’s words. Even though her eyes were shaking as if there was an earthquake, her hands were moving desperately without the slightest error while performing the treatment.

Lee Ji-yeon nodded and reached out her hand. Kukugung! The entire land where Lee Ha-yul and those surrounding him were floated up.

“Elia junior, Arin. Please heal me while I get back.”

The current rate is dangerous to transport directly. It is much safer to take it to a place that has been purified with a lot of purification magic.

“Yes, be careful not to shake it.”

“… Leave it to me.”

“Power! Return to the wire!”

At Lee Ji-yeon’s direction, not only Taesan but also the forces of Geophwa and Changhae moved in unison.

There were some people who stuttered.

It was Hong Yeon-hwa. She was absent-minded and couldn’t come to her senses even after hearing Ji-yeon’s screams.

“… Yeonhwa.”

Instead of shouting, Lee Ji-yeon put her hand on Hong Yeon-hwa’s shoulder. Only then did Hong Yeon-hwa look back at Lee Ji-yeon.

“Hey, sis… What the fuck, what should I do with that…?”

The bright red eyes that were always so bright were trembling uncomfortably. Unlike the usual Hong Yeon-hwa, she looked full of anxiety and frustration.

‘I shouldn’t have sent it.’

Hong Yeon-hwa was not sure about the information the necklace gave her.

So I couldn’t stop Lee Ha-yool’s actions. I thought that stopping him would be an infringement on his freedom.

The result was a spectacular sight.

A right arm that was as black as the past. A prosthetic hand that replaced the left arm that had disappeared, perhaps because it had been reversed.

Injuries that are close to the concept of a corpse…

If Hong Yeon-hwa had held Lee Ha-yul in her arms that day so that she wouldn’t go out, this would have happened─

“Yeonhwa, your junior is alive. He’s not dead.”

“No, no, but still, the wound just now… ”

“It’s okay. You’ll never die.”

Lee Ji-yeon grabbed Hong Yeon-hwa’s shoulders and met her gaze.

“How many people just got stuck? There’s Taesan, the creator of the sea, and even Elia’s junior. How many facilities and people are inside the defense line? Do you think they’ll let people die easily there? No way. ”

“… … ”

“You know how much healing techniques have advanced these days, Yeonhwa. They can even make lost limbs grow back. Do you think that one can’t be saved?”

In fact, Lee Ji-yeon doesn’t know either. To be exact, even without considering that, Lee Ha-yool’s condition was serious.

“No?”

“… Yeah.”

That just wasn’t the reason for the collapse.

“Wake up, Yeonhwa. We’re in the middle of a battlefield. We have to go back inside first. ”

“… Oh, right… Okay.”

Hong Yeon-hwa, who had been stammering and struggling to keep her wits about her words, nodded her head with difficulty as she looked into Lee Ji-yeon’s firm gaze.

.

.

.

Lee Ha-yul, who was moved inside the defensive line, immediately went into surgery.

It would be best to transport him to the association headquarters or the city cradle, but this is not possible because Lee Ha-yool’s condition is at a level where it is questionable whether he will be able to pass through the gate.

Therefore, extreme treatment is continuing in temporary facilities set up at the last line of defense.

“ha… ”

A day has passed since the rescue of Lee Ha-yul.

The purpose of those who came in a hurry to find Lee Ha-yul had been accomplished, but they could not leave the battlefield.

“There are so many… ”

Atra muttered as he sat down on the wall. He could see monsters pouring down like a flood.

It’s been a day since the rampage started, but it doesn’t show any signs of slowing down.

It’s pouring down more intensely than before, and the interval between appearances of high-level monsters is also getting shorter.

A 3rd tier monster also appeared a few hours ago.

Because it was a giant doll monster with a relatively high physical level, the heroes, including Atra, were able to deal with it quickly.

But because of that, I couldn’t stay by Lee Ha-yool’s side all the time and had to go in and out of the battlefield.

“That’s right. It’s so disgustingly crowded.”

Rihanna, who was sitting next to him, sighed in agreement.

If Atra was in charge of subduing high-ranking monsters, it would be safe to say that Rihanna was in charge of one front by operating a large number of spirits.

In addition, it was temporarily used to appease the spirit of Lee Ha-yool, who was about to enter a state similar to a runaway.

Thanks to that, the accumulated fatigue in just one day is considerable.

Actually, that kind of fatigue is not a big deal.

Even so, he is a superhuman who was once active on the front lines of the African Magic. He is not weak enough to touch the bone in just one day.

But the two people sitting on the wall became gloomy and withered within a day.

“… What should I do with this guy?”

The cause is not physical fatigue, but mental shock.

To be more precise, it is because of Lee Ha-yool who drove a nail into their hearts.

Both of them saw the condition of Lee Ha-yool, who was brought in yesterday.

-… …

-Ha, ugh…

Atra fainted on the spot, and Rihanna also fainted, but was forcibly brought back to consciousness by the spirit’s call.

The moment I woke up, I wanted to faint, but given the circumstances on the battlefield, I had no choice but to wake up.

“Hoo… ”

Artra sighed for the umpteenth time and washed her face.

Lee Ha-yul said that it would not be dangerous if he avoided eye contact.

It was bullshit. Lee Ha-yool crawled into the most dangerous place in the world and actually became a corpse and lay on the floor.

But he’s alive.

Again, again, again! I was really hurt a lot! Although we discussed life and death based on opinions, Artra assumed survival without any hesitation.

If this happens, we should be properly reprimanded for this.

‘… … ‘

By the time I thought about it that far.

Artra observed the battlefield unfolding before his eyes.

Even though monsters are pouring out like that, it’s not a dangerous situation.

This is because the preparations are so thorough.

Just looking at the level of the defense line, it was established more solidly than the African Magic.

This is the preparation of the following rate.

Atra’s disciple skillfully set the association in motion in advance.

I heard that this disaster was originally planned to occur in an instant, not over a long period of time.

Just thinking about it made my whole body tingle with goosebumps.

Occupancy of space that is currently blocked by a barrier.

If something like that were to be unleashed into the world without any defenses, how much space would it occupy?

What if a monster that was so full of people that it was almost bursting out of nowhere appeared in that space all of a sudden?

Just imagining it makes my head spin.

It would be no different from a new magic circle suddenly appearing inside the mine.

Even as the expansion of the Demon Realm is being blocked by bubbles, a new Demon Realm is created in the middle of the land?

It’s not worth discussing.

The era of peace that everyone is talking about will collapse in an instant.

Lee Ha-yool prevented such a situation.

This is a great achievement. It deserves not just praise, but awe and respect.

This rate has saved countless people.

Although it is governed by the expression ‘countless’, it has protected the well-being and future of countless people.

If Lee Ha-yool regains consciousness and recovers appropriately, should I really scold him?

“Then you should scold her. Didn’t that kid almost make a few people widows?”

“…?!”

“As a hero, it is an achievement worthy of respect, but as a low-level person, it almost ruined our lives. You should receive the praise you deserve, and get scolded if you get scolded.”

Rihanna twisted her hair with a tired expression.

“You should have at least asked us for help. You went in there alone and tried to solve it alone.”

Atra followed Riana’s gaze. Kkuuung! The black sphere that was causing the outburst was spewing out ink-like energy.

-Keeek!

-Grururururaaaak!

Monsters poured out in droves. The faces of the two people were crumpled by the number of monsters that suddenly increased.

‘… Yeah, that’s right.’

Art nodded inwardly.

No matter how great one’s accomplishments are, one deserves to be scolded for throwing oneself into danger while leaving behind the person one loves.

And what about Artra?

Knowing her past of losing a disciple, it was Lee Ha-yool’s fault for doing something like this again.

Artra turned his mind to the idea of having to scold her.

“Hi… ”

Rihanna sighed and waved her hand. The spirits who heard her intention moved hurriedly.

Artora also raised his body.

There are quite a few high-ranking monsters that have poured in. The strike force, including her, must subdue the approaching high-ranking monsters.

-Kururung…!

“Huh?”

That was when.

Dark clouds began to gather in the dark sky.

It feels too sudden and blatant to be dismissed as a natural phenomenon.

Brain energy swirled in the dark clouds. The dark clouds suddenly bulged out, and the brain energy accumulated inside them poured down like rain.

-Gurrr!

A heavy vibration ran through the ground. Crunch! Soon, a deafening roar followed, and dozens of flashes of light were repeated in my vision.

The monster caught in the lightning bolt was completely burned without even making a sound.

The monster that was touched was similar. Its lifespan was slightly longer, but it was baked and rolled around on the floor.

“Wow~ This is crazy powerful. Whose ability is that?”

“Was there anyone with that kind of brain power? Where are they affiliated? Association? Or individual force? ”

“Wow, did you just see that guy who was supposed to be 4th tier get roasted? I don’t think he’d be able to do that even if he got hit with a fireball.”

Exclamations flowed from the surroundings. Half of the monsters that had poured out at once were swept away by a bolt of lightning.

“The support is perfect. That would be great even in a war with the Grand General.”

“… … ”

“… Artra?”

Riana, who had been quietly exclaiming, tilted her head. There was something strange about Atra’s expression.

It was a strange sense of discomfort. Or maybe it was a sense of familiarity.

Artra has never seen anyone with brain powers like that. She has never seen lightning with that kind of output.

But I’m used to it.

Lightning? No. It’s familiar magic.

-Take it! Take it!

The sharp senses read the sound of something quickly approaching from afar.

Riana, who was a bit late in receiving the report from the spirit, also raised her hand for a moment, but lowered it without any hostility.

-widely!

Soon, there was a sound of someone climbing up the wall. Someone landed a little away from Atrawariana.

A sudden gust of wind caused small lightning bolts and blue hair to flutter together.

The figure raised his head. His face came into view.

“… Uh… ”

Blue hair and blue eyes. Unfamiliar. The brain energy flowing throughout the body, and the wild spirit are also unfamiliar.

Empty right arm.

“Uh, uh… ?”

The face and impression are familiar.

Memories can’t fade just because a few years have passed. I can’t forget that face that often appears in my nightmares.

“… Daera.”

Artra bit her tongue as she spoke that name. At the same time, she also tightened her magic.

Mind control, hallucinations, illusions.

This is the first possibility that came to mind. To confirm it, he inflicted pain, aroused magic, and heightened his senses.

All results pointed to reality.

“Ah… ”

The reaction of the woman in front of me, Daera, was decisive. Her once calm blue eyes became moist and tears began to fall.

“S, Master… ”

The voice. It was different, but familiar. Artra couldn’t believe that the sight before her eyes was fake.

“Daera.”

“Master, sir… !”

Era ran towards Atra, shouting at her muttering.

Although the speed was lightning fast, Artra reflexively spread out both arms to receive Daera.

“Ah, ahh…! Really, really met you…! Oh, really…! You’re a real teacher…!”

Era’s tears became louder as she was held in her arms.

Atra’s face became blank as she heard the loud wailing that occurred in her arms.

It didn’t feel real. It was a dream-like scene that I had always wished for since that day, but thought would never come true.

“Daera… Really, is that you?”

“Yes, yes… ! It’s true… ! Heh, you’ll know when you see it… !”

“Really… Really… ?”

“Ugh, aaaahhh… ”

No words came out. Artra could not wipe away her blurry vision, and instinctively hugged Daera tightly.

I don’t know English, but I wanted to be more certain that this is reality.

Artra lowered his head and buried his face in Daera’s hair.

It’s warm. It’s not a cold body temperature. The feel of the hair is also vivid.

I instinctively compared it with my past memories.

As expected, the scent of the body has changed a bit. For some reason, it is sweet. It’s like it was soaked in honey water.

I am familiar with it.

“… ?”

This is the following rate.

Artra hugged Daera closer and buried his face in her hair.

“… … .”

There’s no doubt about it. It’s Lee Ha-yool’s body type.

But it’s too thick. It’s like I’ve been rubbing my belly button naked for days…

“Hmph… Master… ?”

Daeraga, who had been shedding tears, raised her head. Atra, who was also shedding tears, had a strange feeling in her eyes.

It was a little different from excitement and joy.

“No, it’s nothing… ”

Artra blinked and hugged Daera again.

It was much bigger than before we broke up, but Atrakaki was still bigger so I could hold him in my arms.

He hid the speck of dust that had appeared on his face.

It was too dirty a feeling to recall in such a dreamlike, touching reunion.
