by fnovelpiaThe sky over the stadium turns red and a red signal appears.
The siren sounded loudly, and the participants who were dealing with the monsters fell into confusion.
“What is this! Is this a real situation?!”
“Oh, I don’t fucking know! Run away first!”
“Aaaa!!”
“…Ah.”
I sighed as I saw the stadium turned into chaos.
Why did it suddenly become like this?
So, I happily accepted So Ye-rin’s handshake, saying thank you.
The hands that touched each other tingled.
Then something like a spectacular explosion occurred.
“Mr. Seongjin!”
As if the body is being snatched away, it heads towards Lee Ha-neul.
The scent and warm body temperature can be felt in an instant.
I came to rest in Lee Ha-neul’s arms.
-Woe!
Soon, magic power in the form of wings surrounded us.
Just looking at it, an unusual vibration is pounding Lee Ha-neul’s magic like crazy.
“What the hell is going on?!”
“I don’t know either… I just held your hand…”
-Inform participants. The explosion currently occurring is not staged but real. Please everyone quickly move to an evacuation shelter.
“We have to get out of here first!”
I agreed with Lee Ha-neul, who spoke urgently.
I unconsciously followed So Ye-rin with my eyes.
“Ugh… !”
She was writhing as if in pain.
Something like dark red veins all over the body.
Of course I am aware of that phenomenon.
-Mana runaway.
For villains who pursue extreme power, this is an indispensable concept.
Even in the story, the dying guys suddenly wake up and harass the main character and his group.
The problem is why did that phenomenon suddenly occur in So Ye-rin?
‘If I leave it like that, I’ll die.’
All people who suffer from mana overload suffer a miserable end.
My body explodes, or I go half crazy.
In Soyerin’s case, it seems that a future closer to the former awaits her.
-Kwaang!!
Another explosion strikes Lee Ha-neul’s magical power.
-Keu!!
The monster I was riding was caught in the explosion and lost its shape.
I just picked that one.
Putting my regret aside, I asked Lee Ha-neul vaguely.
“Mr. Sky. That guy, how can he not?”
“The situation is so urgent right now… !”
Lee Ha-neul also looked at So Ye-rin and was worried between immediate safety and the person’s life.
Then he suddenly sees me.
“Uh, what can I do… ?”
“… .”
After all, you are the one responsible for your actions, so why are you asking me?
“I think I’ll die if I leave it like that, but I want to help in any way I can.”
Even as I said that, I thought deeply.
Is there something I can do to not only put a burden on Lee Ha-neul?
Blood demon?
Even if you take it out now, it will only be a meat shield and will not be able to handle the aftereffects.
Did Kim Seong-jin of the original work really become the main villain at the level of national power by manipulating a monster?
Of course not.
-You’re having a hard time. Let me help you a little bit.
That moment.
A familiar female voice rings in my head.
‘…uh?’
-Remember the sensations of the present.
And then a strange sensation came into my head.
An unfamiliar memory that felt like I had known it from the beginning.
I immediately knew who the voice belonged to.
And I instinctively realized the kind of help she was providing.
Beyond the wings of the sky below.
All sorts of strange phenomena occur due to Soyerin’s runaway magical power.
The ground is cracking, lightning-like things of unknown origin are twisting, and countless explosions are occurring between them.
Beyond that. I just stretched out my hand.
Magical power in response to will surges from deep within the body.
A person who drove the awakened protagonist to death several times.
A man who had the power to destroy not only Korea but the world with the power of his short stature.
‘There really is no answer.’
I let out a laugh.
The magic power that was raging everywhere was distorted by an intangible force.
As if an object was being forcibly compressed, Soyerin’s magic power, which was forcibly crushed, squeaked and squeaked, making an unsightly groan.
“Mr. Seongjin… ?”
Only then did Lee Ha-neul, who felt something strange, ask me.
I couldn’t tell you everything either.
“Why is it like this? This is it.”
He just acts with an expression of disbelief.
“Mr. Sky.”
“Yes, yes..?”
“For some reason, I think I can do it.”
Lee Ha-neul chews her lips at my words.
There seemed to be a significant internal conflict going on.
but. At that time, not much time had passed since the terrorist incident.
Your vigilance will be high.
But there are people dying over there.
As if I had decided to save everyone in the facility.
I couldn’t bear to watch people die in front of my eyes.
I don’t know how my constellations helped with my ghostly timing.
Still, isn’t good something good?
‘son. ‘My poor bastard.’
“… .”
-Okay.
okay. Good is good.
“Mr. Sky. Can you help me?”
“But…”
“Please.”
I held Lee Ha-neul’s hand and earnestly asked her to do so.
She looked blankly at the hand that was being held, seemed to think for a moment, and then nodded with difficulty.
In fact, I feel like I need to hurry up a bit.
Because the scale of the phenomena that I suppressed through my own power was too large.
The speed of magical power consumption is so fast that it hits the body directly.
Meanwhile, Lee Ha-neul opened her mouth.
“Promise me that you will take care of your body first.”
“That…”
“I promise.”
“Yes.”
Ha-neul Lee’s eyes are burning brightly with magical power.
I had doubts for a moment, but the momentum that followed forced me to make a promise.
Our eyes both turn to So Ye-rin at the same time.

“It’s because of you.”
So Yerin cherishes the terrible memories of that day.
Father only cares about management.
The rest of the children naturally developed venom as well.
The only thing to blame for my young mind is my weak-tempered youngest brother.
Also, my longing for my mother who passed away while giving birth to So Ye-rin.
I don’t know anything.
They blamed it on So Ye-rin, who simply longed for the warmth of her family, and left her childhood with terrible memories.
performance.
Left alone, So Ye-rin learned how to protect her own value.
Fortunately, she had talent.
You can easily enter the academy.
The girl who didn’t know that this was the beginning of another hell.
This time, he had low expectations, thinking that his family would look after him.
“So Yerin lost… ?”
Someone’s sigh echoes inside the quiet stadium.
The spotlight that I had worked so hard to build up was taken away all at once.
It was the day So Ye-rin was defeated by an uninvited guest with no family tree.
-Waaaa!!
The crowd cheers.
In the sparring exam held at the academy.
As I fell, the world was getting further and further away.
-I hate everything.
A muddy swamp flows down onto my shoulders.
The weight is so heavy that So Ye-rin cannot escape.
Soon the mud had risen to the bottom of my chin and was flowing into my mouth, nose, and ears.
They are suffocated and buried in eternal pain.
It’s dark.
There is only darkness.
Living in this world is a sin itself.
Actually, if you think about it.
It can only bring tarnish to the brilliant name of the family.
He was an impurity that should not exist.
So, even at this moment.
It must be a cold, heavenly punishment meted out to oneself.
‘it hurts.’
“Ah, ugh… !!”
A merciless condemnation directed at the ugly sinner who tried to touch the unreachable fruit.
‘Someone help me.’
Tears are flowing.
My body has been out of control for a long time.
The sky turned red.
A scream of pain that lingers in my mind.
A disaster of his own making, visible through blurred vision.
‘Help me.’
What did I do so wrong?
God. What did I do so wrong?
The world is so scary and difficult.
My vision gradually becomes dark.
So Ye-rin sensed that she did not have much time left.
“…Gotcha.”
Before I knew it, he came to my side.
Until I saw someone.
“… ?”
What unfolds without even a moment of doubt is a brilliant light.
A magical power like a blessing, as if sins are being washed away just by looking at it, embraces Soyerin.
-Woe!
As if the gloomy dark clouds had cleared.
The body that had been sinking in the darkness gradually rises.
There was an angel there.
The angel had an abominable appearance and was looking down at himself as if something was unclear.
“…this. Is there another way?”
the angel asks
And the answer came right away.
“You should try it.”
So Ye-rin’s eyes finally turned to the man.
The complexion is pale.
He was sweating profusely, and it was noticeable that his condition was deteriorating by the minute.
“Why…”
“Be quiet. Because it’s hard to answer.”
The answer I got back was nervous yet kind.
So Ye-rin had doubts even though she felt it herself.
Can you be kind when you’re angry?
Nevertheless.
Soyerin silently obeyed the subtle emotions rising in her heart.
Kim Seong-jin looked at So Ye-rin’s body with tired eyes.
Beyond the battle uniform that had become tattered due to runaway magical energy.
I feel something foreign accumulating like pus.
He moved his hands according to the unfamiliar memories implanted in his mind.
What was touched was the tip of five fingers.
‘Just this much.’
Kim Seong-jin squeezed out his magic power and spread it out with his fingers.
Then, the magic power that was running wild inside me obediently accepted him as if it had met its owner.
‘…ah.’
What is piled up inside are lost sheep, and Seongjin Kim is their guide.
The magical energy that had settled inside Soyerin found its way and began to be released outside.
-Saaa…
The oxidized remnants in the air are dark red in color, giving off an ominous appearance.
It was the same color as the scars from the runaway that spread all over Soyerin’s body.
Rest comes to my body that was twisted by pain.
So Ye-rin’s mind, which had been pushed to its limit, fell into a state of despair in an instant.
like that.
So Ye-rin closed her eyes, feeling a sense of comfort that she did not know how long ago.
