episode_0003
by fnovelpiaLee Ha-neul’s awakening was successful.
All of the released blood demons were properly eliminated by the heroes, Lee Ha-neul.
One of the heroes who arrived at the scene late took charge of the safety of me, the children, and Lee Ha-neul.
As a result, we were sent to a treatment center.
From the beginning, I was completely healed by Lee Haneul’s power.
The children were receiving treatment individually.
And Haneul Lee…
“…Ugh.”
He was diagnosed with minor injuries, fatigue, and ‘mana exhaustion’ and is sleeping like a rat in a hospital bed.
“Seongjin…”
Lee Ha-neul, who was talking in her sleep, suddenly called my name.
I answered her quietly.
“Yes, Haneul. I’m here. Are you coming to your senses?”
Then he frowns and struggles.
As if looking for water in a dry desert, unconscious hand gestures fluttered through the air.
I held his arm carefully for fear of accidentally bumping into something strange.
Then, naturally, it seemed as if my wandering hand found its way.
-Kwaak.
“…Uh.”
It got tangled in my hands.
“Heehee.”
Lee Ha-neul, who had been groaning for a while, felt the warmth and began to faint.
‘…Isn’t this enough to wake you up?’
Naturally, I had no choice but to have reasonable doubts.
It was around the time when he was detained(?) for a long time.
-Drop.
A man wearing a suit entered the hospital room and approached us.
“Hello.”
“Hello. But who are you…”
“My name is Park Min-wook, and I am working at the Monster Countermeasures Headquarters.”
Monster Countermeasure Headquarters.
It’s a concept I know.
In the original work, when a monster is attacked or a hero fights, it is a group that comes out and does something absurd to clean up the mess.
At first glance, it may seem like an insignificant extra organization, but it is one of the guardian organizations that represent the Republic of Korea.
What if each company formed a guild to scout heroes and work on defense?
The Monster Countermeasure Headquarters officially operates with the government behind it.
And here is reality.
From a civilian’s perspective, the person in front of you right now, Park Min-wook, is like a fantasy Pokemon that is hard to find.
I tried to get up from my seat.
My actions were restricted due to Lee Ha-neul’s tight hand.
“You don’t have to get up.”
When Park Min-wook saw that situation, he took advantage of it.
“I came here today simply to ask for understanding from the two people who were involved in the incident.”
It’s obvious at best.
It was clear that he had come to ask about the blood demon I had summoned.
There was no way I was going to tell the truth and say I was crazy, so it was best to just cover it up and send it back.
“That day. Do you remember the monster that appeared to you two?”
I answered Park Min-wook’s question as gloomily as possible.
“…Yes. I remember.”
“Then, did the monster have the same shape as in this photo?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you for your reply.”
Park Min-wook, who put the photo back in the folder, opened his mouth again.
“At that time, I received a report that the monster had been subdued by Lee Ha-neul, who was there. Is this also true?”
“Yes. At first, I really thought I was going to die. Haneul suddenly gave off some kind of light and knocked him down.”
Oh, I woke up and defeated it. What are you going to do?
After that, Park Min-wook asked a few more simple questions.
Since they were all just formal questions, I felt like I was nervous for no reason, so I lost my temper.
This time too, Park Min-wook listened to my answer and just agreed without asking any additional questions.
“I see.”
As Park Min-wook said that, he took out two documents from his bag and handed them to me.
“This is… ?”
“If you have suffered damage due to a monster, you can receive formal compensation for the damage from the government. All you have to do is submit this document.”
“Thank you.”
I accepted it without hesitation.
“I also gave you Haneul Lee’s documents, so later…”
“Yes. I will deliver it to you.”
“Thank you.”
The phantom Pokemon who said that got up from his seat.
“I, then.”
“Ah. Is it all over?”
“Yes. Once again, thank you for answering our questions sincerely. Oh, and.”
Park Min-wook, who was about to leave, held out something that looked like a ticket to me.
“Lee Ha-neul may need it in the future, so I will give this to you in advance.”
When I glanced at it, I saw a piece of paper that looked like an entrance gate.
“This is a recommended ticket for the upcoming talent discovery test.”
But what I heard was truly beyond imagination.
“No.”
“Then let’s go.”
Minwook Park saw my dumbfounded attitude and left, speaking in a businesslike tone to the end.
It’s a fantasy thing, but the items given are also unique.
oh my god. What a recommended ticket.
Of course, it’s not mine, it’s Haneul Lee’s.
Nevertheless, I know very well the value of this ticket in my hand.
Strictly speaking, this was like a free pass.
“…Ugh, Seongjin… ?”
With perfect timing, Lee Ha-neul came to her senses.
“Mr. Sky! Are you out of your mind?”
Lee Ha-neul, who got up in a daze, asked.
“This is… ?”
“It’s a treatment center. Hero took me there.”
“Aha…”
Muong.
Lee Ha-neul was still confused as to whether this was a dream or reality.
But even that appearance seemed unique and proud to me.
The figure who awakened her magical powers and fought against the blood demon was the saint Lee Ha-neul herself from the original work.
He is not afraid of death and no matter how hopeless the situation is, he protects and saves the citizens in the end.
That is the utopia I had hoped for and the original Lee Ha-neul.
Of course, there were some artificial tricks(?) in the process.
No problem. Isn’t it enough as long as the results are good?
‘We also prevented terrorism.’
In addition, we prevented future tragedies from occurring at the facility.
It has been clear for some time now that the association will turn on its eyes and strengthen security in the area.
Anyway, what was good was good.
“Huh! Seongjin! I, I… !”
Then, suddenly, I turned my head at Lee Ha-neul’s call.
“Yes?”
“That, this, this… !”
Lee Ha-neul, who seemed to have realized something, soon became filled with anticipation like a child receiving a Christmas present.
And then.
-Pee it.
“Heeeek..!”
After trying to use his magic and failing miserably, he shudders from the pounding headache.
“Haneul, what are you doing…”
“That’s it. I was trying to show you a new ability…”
Before I knew it, tears were forming at the corners of Lee Ha-neul’s eyes.
It seems quite painful.
If you try to use magical power while experiencing mana exhaustion, you will usually react like this.
The solution was to just rest for a few days.
“Mr. Sky. For the time being, don’t overexert yourself and take a good rest. The magic bottle was empty.”
“Yes… Ugh, it hurts so much…”
Lee Ha-neul said that and then opened her mouth as if jumping out.
“Children! What about children?!”
“Everyone is safe. I am currently receiving a checkup at another medical facility.”
“Ha… !”
Lee Ha-neul was possessed by slime and melted onto the bed.
“Really, really Seongjin.”
“Yes.”
“Ddabon.”
I looked at him with satisfaction as he struggled to raise his thumb.
“Still.”
And then. He looked at me with cold eyes.
“It’s really crazy. Why did you do that then?”
“Haha…”
“You almost died so helplessly. Those words, words, words…”
Lee Ha-neul, who continued talking, suddenly snuggles into the blanket.
I tried my best to pretend not to notice the bright red earlobes that were visible before I covered my face.
“Ah. And Mr. Sky.”
“Yes… ?”
“A while ago, someone came from the Monster Countermeasures Headquarters.”
“Ah… Really?”
Lee Ha-neul answered, still unable to raise her head from under the blanket.
He seemed quite embarrassed.
“But. He gave this to Haneul.”
Hearing my words, Lee Ha-neul peeked out his eyes and checked what I had given him.
“Ticket… ? What is this?”
“It’s a recommended ticket. I think it will be used in the upcoming talent discovery exam.”
I handed the ticket to Lee Ha-neul with the intention of raising a child.
If you use it to get a free pass on the exam.
Lee Haneul will fly higher in the future.
Like the grandeur once shown in a novel.
We hope that Lee Ha-neul, who has solidified her position as a saint, will shine brightly.
And I am.
Not the world’s evildoers who must be sacrificed for world peace.
The saint’s indispensable helper and close friend.
I just wanted it to be that much.
“I don’t want to take it.”
“Yes. Get this… Yes?”
And my dream collapsed in an instant.
“Seongjin take it.”
“No. This is what the person gave me earlier to give me heavenly seeds…”
I looked at Lee Ha-neul with complete despair, but she resolutely did not bend her will.
‘There must be a reason for this.’
“Mr. Seongjin.”
“Yes… ?”
“At that time and place. If Seongjin hadn’t rescued the children first, if he hadn’t come to rescue me…”
Isn’t such a statement too much of an if subjunctive?
If I hadn’t gone anyway, it would have ended with the heroes.
He only instructed the blood demons to do the same thing.
However, due to the atmosphere, I could not stop Lee Ha-neul from speaking.
“The people from that task force may not know, but I do. What Seongjin did at that time.”
“No, Mr. Sky. Haneul defeated that monster at that time, so we can be safe.”
“No. I can’t accept this. This is something a true hero should receive. Someone like Seongjin.”
-Kkook.
The hand holding the ticket is blocked by Lee Ha-neul’s pretty hand.
I was speechless due to the instantaneous warmth.
“If you ignore Seongjin and accept it. I don’t want to take this. If you force me to give it to you, I will just throw it away.”
“No…”
I was miserably defeated by the crazy logic of miraculous spin-offs.
If this happens, the plan goes a bit out of whack.
Lee Ha-neul seemed not to know how much value this opportunity had.
My head is about to explode.
How on earth should I give this to Lee Ha-neul?
The car I was thinking deeply about.
“Oh, no.”
After a moment of silence, Lee Ha-neul carefully added words.
“I will go if Seongjin comes with me.”
“What is that…”
What does that mean.. sky sky…
“I also know something about talent discovery tests. First of all, the application itself is available to the general public. So.”
This time Lee Ha-neul was possessed by Columbus, who was exploring the New World, and spoke confidently.
“ Let’s go together and take the test fairly. Yes?”
I desperately shouted the save point in my heart.

Meanwhile, Park Min-wook, who came out, was lost in thought.
The unidentified monster that Lee Ha-neul defeated last night.
If it is of the same class that put the seasoned heroes who were dispatched into danger.
“…Is this the birth of a new hero?”
The reason why Park Min-wook decided to give Lee Ha-neul a recommendation ticket.
It was because of a very simple calculation.
‘It wasn’t like a skirmish.’
One of the heroes dispatched that day, who spoke tremblingly.
‘Just, just. ‘They’re playing with us.’
There are as many as three B-rank heroes.
Nevertheless, one of them said so.
The attack did not work at all, and the overall situation was hopeless.
As time passed, they suddenly disappeared into the opened gate.
If only those monsters had truly dealt with him.
“Played with B-grade heroes.”
It was such threatening news.
There is a person who destroyed that unknown monster.
‘Let talent bloom as quickly as possible.’
The future of Lee Ha-neul, who is still just an ordinary person.
Park Min-wook could only hope.
