11.

“Hunters are not allowed.”

Kang Jin-young asked about this.

You can’t back down here.

How hard have you tried since you woke up, to be recognized?

“Mother!”

“Where are you going to talk back to your parents who are like the sky! Don’t you close your eyes?!”

“… … .”

“This bitch hasn’t been beaten before, so she’s glaring? What did she do to deserve this glaring glare!”

People tend to give up when faced with an impossible task.

The same goes for human relationships.

It’s easier if you give up your opinions.

Family relationships even more so.

Even if life is like a marionette hanging on a string, in essence, the body becomes comfortable.

Kang Jin-young realized it too late.

Kang Jin-young let out a ragged breath.

“Please, reconsider. Mother. This is the only way. What do you expect from the Awakened?”

Kang Jin-young bowed his head miserably.

“Is this the only way? Is this the only way?!”

A spacious and quaint mansion.

Although it is filled with all kinds of gold leaf and gold items, you cannot find any life.

Kang Jin-young lowered his head at the death-like color.

“Do you know how our Gangcheon Group has maintained its position at the forefront of the business world? We fought. We fought against those who tried to kill us.”

“I know.”

Kang Jin-young answered calmly while wiping the blood.

The biological mother is quite rational.

I wanted to believe that.

“Mother. I, too, am the second daughter of a respectable family and I have decided my own life─”

“Don’t be a jerk. You should continue the family business. Or be a patriot, patriot!”

The mother scolded Kang Jin-young.

“I didn’t invest money because of you, you bastard. It never existed in the first place! I did a bad job educating you. I shouldn’t have entrusted my child’s education to that bastard.”

“… … Sorry.”

“Get out.”

Kang Jin-young was born as a doll.

It was too late when I realized that.

Just about to graduate from middle school.

She accepted that she was born as a doll.

“As a public official who performs national security duties and protects the country from the devil, do you swear to serve the country with a thorough sense of patriotism and mission?”

“I swear.”

The doll hated people.

Because even though they resemble humans infinitely, they can never become human.

That’s essentially it.

Hope, right path, free will.

I struggled to recover what I had lost.

It was all in vain.

“······Fuck. Fuck. Fuck!”

The youngest head of the National Intelligence Service.

It was given that title.

If I didn’t do that, I would feel upset.

A parachute greeting with a halo over it.

Such titles always followed.

– Today, I met the troops operating in Cheorwon! In particular, today, we have a famous person who all of our viewers know. Hello, Hunter Kang Mi-young!

-Nice to meet you. My name is Kang Mi-young from Trinity. Hahaha.

Kang Jin-young turns on the television.

He grimaced and threw the remote control weakly.

I should be there, in that place.

“If it weren’t for me, my sister would have been worse than a dog.”

I hated Kang Mi-young.

Some people are fighting by bumping into each other’s bodies.

That girl easily took all the glory.

Everything he should have had was taken away from him.

It was one day when Kang Jin-young was living like a shadow.

“New, survivors… … are they all gone?”

An accident occurred while on a front-line inspection mission.

The two-ton truck she was riding in overturned, and the supplies to be transported were lost.

Isolated in the middle of a mountain.

The troops that were following behind also disappeared.

All passengers were seriously injured.

There was no sign of him waking up.

She was sitting in the passenger seat and crawled out of the overturned truck.

As soon as I got out, I felt a warm sensation on my stomach.

It was blood.

That’s significant bleeding.

“Are you okay, Hunter?”

“······Don’t talk to me. I’m crazy.”

“You are bleeding heavily right now. There is no blood in your face. If you continue like this, you will really die. I will check─”

Okay.

“Don’t touch me. Where is that little brat? I can break his balls in one breath. Just stay still.”

Kang Jin-young glared at him fiercely and coldly rejected his helping hand.

All sorts of things lying on the dirt road.

It was not the 5th unit that collected the survivors, but a single soldier who was on board.

He leaned against the two-ton truck and closely observed Kang Jin-young’s condition.

The only soldier to suffer minor injuries in the accident.

I heard that he is a common soldier, that is, a non-awakened person, but he is very skilled.

I don’t know about his surgical skills though.

“You must hold out here until the rescue force arrives. Do you have enough mana?”

“Not enough.”

The private’s brow furrowed.

“Don’t lie. Isn’t it hard?”

“······Ugh. Yeah, I’m on the verge of losing. So what are we going to do? If I lose, that’s the end of it.”

“You can’t die. Don’t give up! Don’t you have to live? Like those guys.”

You’re so perceptive.

The judgment isn’t bad, and it’s rather tolerable.

Kang Jin-young stopped the bleeding on his abdomen with his leather-gloved hand.

“It’s the same no matter how much I live. This kind of thing will keep happening.”

It’s true that the condition is not good.

‘The wind of regeneration.’

[Your body’s mana has been depleted. Cancel use.]

‘Fuck.’

She leaned against the half-turned two-and-a-half-ton of rice cakes.

The mana circuit was overloaded.

My mana has also been depleted.

It would be nice to have a potion, but in the current situation, it was like pouring water into a bottomless dam.

If not treated promptly, it could lead to functional disability and removal.

‘It’s being abandoned, it can’t be abandoned.’

I grew up as a tool in the household from birth.

What if there is no family to protect you?

You’ve made too many enemies.

It wasn’t uncommon to get stabbed to death in a back alley.

By the way, why does that annoying guy keep coming closer to me?

Kang Jin-young nodded, breathing heavily.

“Stop.”

“I will stop the bleeding for you.”

“Can’t you hear me? Everyone, don’t come near me······.”

“I don’t know how to call you, but you are an awakened being, and you can’t even take care of me, a mere soldier. How are you going to fight?”

The male soldier sitting next to her subdued her in an instant.

It was humiliating.

I was used to losing to someone, but this feeling of defeat was different.

“····Are you going to report me to the authorities? Because I have damaged the dignity of the Awakened.”

“Accuse me? Huh, what nonsense are you talking about? Keep your mouth shut. I’ll do it right away. ”

The private tilted his head. In an emergency situation, how can he maintain dignity with something like this?

That was the original mindset of the higher-ups, but if you follow FM’s instructions, you’ll only end up hurting yourself.

Kang Jin-young didn’t know, though.

“Maintaining the dignity of the awakened······ There’s something like that. I know, I’ve done a lot of bad things. I wish I didn’t have to serve only as a private.”

“Do not report.”

“Don’t you do it?”

“I’m not the type of person to screw over anyone.”

The private answered briefly and then brought a first aid kit and a surgical kit.

Items that were in the cargo.

Since it was an emergency anyway, it would have been difficult to say anything even if it was used.

Well, it’s about saving lives. He saved most of the soldiers here.

‘With these achievements, my discharge period will be shortened, right? Kehehehe. I’ll even get a commendation. Hehehehe.’

Kang Jin-young couldn’t have known the private’s true feelings.

The soldier skillfully unpacked the tools and took off Kang Jin-young’s coat.

“I can take it off with my own strength.”

“Okay, move your arm. I was in the medical class when I was 5. I completed the training. I can do everything from first aid to everything.”

“Very trustworthy”

Hehehe. Oh my, thank you. I wonder if you brought the medical expenses.

The private skillfully countered the sarcasm and applied medicine and gauze to the visible wounds.

“Excuse me, let me unbutton your shirt. It’s completely covered in blood. This is where the cut will be the biggest.”

“Okay, wait a minute.”

Kang Jin-young, who had been still, jumped up like a spring.

“Isn’t it shameful? Seeing a woman alone in a foreign land makes me feel ashamed─”

“You have to get married? So you’re not going to have the surgery alone. Well… …If you want, I can do that for you.”

Kang Jin-young turned his gaze away, groaning.

“… … Put some medicine on. Before I rip that mouth off.”

“Yes, yes.”

When he took off his shirt, his well-toned body, muscular abs, and lean muscles were revealed.

The private finished the emergency measures without paying any attention.

‘It’s okay.’

Kang Jin-young swallowed darkly.

If I hadn’t joined the National Intelligence Service, I would have been a little lower in rank than that private.

I don’t know.

Maybe a private?

‘······What am I thinking. Kang Jin-young, aren’t you being too reckless? You’re interested in men, aren’t you?’

You can tell a person by just looking at their face.

He said he was more stubborn than me.

But she hated being indebted to such an inferior guy.

“Name. Tell me. Something good might happen.”

“My name is Lee Seong-han.”

“Remember.”

She was a little curious because she was not afraid of herself.

* * *

National Intelligence Service building.

The 10-nation Dae-neung-guk was always bright.

It was especially thanks to Kang Jin-young, who was rising through the ranks as the youngest part leader.

Bbabababam─!

A fanfare bursts out from the entrance.

Kang Jin-young entered the office with a cane.

“Ah, Mr. Part. Welcome back! Did your surgery go well?”

The subordinate agents hugged Kang Jin-young.

She was highly regarded as a commander.

“Well done. Who knew a digger would attack a car?”

“Oh really?”

“That’s right. Tell the 9 countries something.”

“What if it’s 9 countries?”

The aide coughed dryly.

“Do you need any information about the number of demons?”

“It’s related to the devil, but it’s not the devil. I have something to check. There were a lot of holes while inspecting the front line.”

Kang Jin-young returns to the National Intelligence Service building from the front lines.

He headed to the 9th Bureau Information Office, giving instructions to his subordinates.

9 countries.

Responsible for scientific information.

The public policy office under the mountain was Kang Jin-young’s destination.

The Office of National Security Affairs is responsible for domestic security issues.

He had a lot of personal data of that kind.

“Hello, what brings you here from the 10th Nationality and the Dae-I-Neung Department?”

“There is information to confirm.”

“Information?”

“ Personal information. Non-awakened. Reasonable. 3rd Division, Army. Private. Here is the photo. Do you also need an ID number?”

“No, I’ll check it out for you right away. What’s your purpose?”

“The purpose is… … .”

Kang Jin-young was lost in thought for a moment.

“Let’s say it’s a special recruitment.”

Kang Jin-young sat down on the bench while waiting for the person in charge who had come to copy the materials.

Even though the air conditioner is on and it’s cool, why do I sweat so much?

After receiving the data, she began to slowly check it.

“… … Hey, let’s just look it up a little bit. I need to know what you like.”

Not taken away by my sister.

Something that only you can cherish.

“Huh, you were cute when you were little?”

* * *

Lee Seong-han continued to play a strange game of hide-and-seek with Kang Jin-young.

‘I’m going to find Kang Mi-young and buy time. That’s the only way out of this hell!’

It’s impossible to last three hours.

I absolutely hated dealing with a madwoman whose abilities had increased sixfold.

There was no condition that anyone could stop it.

In other words, if we just find Kang Mi-young, everything will be resolved.

‘Footsteps behind.’

[‘Kang Jin-young’ is chasing you.]

Lee Seong-han sensed the pursuit with his keen senses.

I quickly entered the nearest hospital room.

“Sigh.”

I held my breath.

If you took one wrong breath, you would die.

It was fortunate that the hospital room was empty at that time.

[‘Kang Jin-young’ found your traces.]

“Mr. Seonghan? Where are you? Come out quickly~”

[The target is currently in the ‘Charmed+’ state.]

[I can’t control myself.]

[Conversation is not possible.]

embrace.

Who doesn’t know that in this situation?

“I said I won’t do anything.”

“… … .”

“I’m a woman who keeps her promises.”

“… … .”

“Discharge? If you want, I can do it for you.”

The sound of heels echoing down the hallway.

Lee Seong-han hugged his sword to prepare for the unexpected.

“Mr. Sunghan? Are you here? There was definitely a mark. I can’t see any traces. Hmm, where did he go? Is he hiding?”

Fuck.

Did you get caught?

It’s like a Russian brown bear that you hunt for fun.

Vicious.

Strong.

There is no hesitation in action.

Maybe it’s visible through the window.

I crouched down, leaning against the wall.

“Where did you go, you human? I want to be so cute to you. Your body feels weird. I want to know more.”

A sound is heard from afar.

It’s not close.

Kang Jin-young started running, making a loud noise.

“Is that it?”

Time has passed.

The sound of footsteps echoed faintly and then disappeared.

······passed.

Lee Seong-han raised his head stiffly.

A pink heart appeared on the crown.

Five minutes left until the coordinates are resent.

[You are currently designated as the “Mark of Eros.”]

[Coordinates are sent to ‘Kang Jin-young’ at regular intervals.]

The sign of Eros.

A high-level magic that allows you to know everything about the object of your love.

It’s tricky to deal with.

There is no proper way to release it.

‘Am I being manipulated after all?’

That’s very likely.

‘Then there must be monsters.’

But I’ve never heard of anyone breaking through a mental barrier.

Then it means that you walked around on your own.

“I almost died. Sigh.”

A sigh that comes out on its own.

It’s only been a few hours since I was discharged from the hospital.

In fact, the discharge procedures haven’t even been completed.

···

···

···

There’s something at the door.

“Haa, Nimi.”

The hospital room door floated in the air and light came in.

“You’re here.”

It’s time to pray to God.
