‘Why on earth?’

Younghee couldn’t understand herself now.

I just encountered people.

It’s not like he threatened anything.

On the contrary, he even kindly expressed his concern.

But why am I shaking like this?

“You weren’t hurt, right?”

“Ah, yes… … .”

Younghee opened her mouth with difficulty.

I felt like I should say something, but I didn’t know what to say.

Before she could say a word, Cheolsu took off his coat and placed it on her head.

“Kim Yujin Where did that bastard go?”

“Ah, to catch a monster… … .”

“Tsk! It’s dangerous here. Where are you avoiding now?”

After saying that, he picked up his sword and ran away again.

In the distance stood a monster that was bigger and more hideous than the other monsters.

Are we fighting such a terrifying monster?

I couldn’t take my eyes off him because I was worried about what was happening behind him.

‘it hurts… … .’

Suddenly, something starts poking at my chest.

Even though I have no memories.

Even though I don’t know who that person is.

A corner of my heart felt numb.

Suddenly, tears flowed down my cheeks.

‘I don’t know… … .’

I don’t know. Why does my heart hurt so much?

Why do you want to stop that person?

I’m so worried about this person named Cheolsu that I can’t stand it.

No matter how hard I try, I can’t remember it.

I don’t know anything, but my heart feels like it’s breaking.

My head is becoming more and more a mess.

“Do you know why I was nice to you?”

“Yes?”

Suddenly, Lime opened her mouth.

“Because I sympathized with you.”

“Sympathy…?”

“If it were me in the past, I wouldn’t have cared whether a kid like you died or lost his memory or not.”

That was a fact without any pretense.

Just now, I’m staying quiet under the pretext of protecting Younghee.

There is no reason for a monster called slime to help humans.

Lime truly thought so, and did so.

Even she made an exception for Younghee.

“But right now, I have someone precious to me. I hope that even I can smile, and there is someone I wish was always by my side.”

“Ah… … .”

I could tell without saying that it was Eugene.

You can feel the affection Lime has for Eugene just by looking at her eyes.

The feeling was so sweet that it made me happy to just watch it.

“That must have been withdrawal for you. So I couldn’t just leave it alone.”

Cheolsu was such a precious person to me?

Did he have such great feelings?

Is that why it hurts so much?

“I told you before. You haven’t lost your memory. I just don’t want to remember it, so I’m rejecting it.”

Lime nodded as he watched Cheolsu fighting desperately from afar.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t accept you anymore. Be clear here. Once you decide, there are no second chances.”

“… … .”

“Lee Young-hee, do you want to find your memories? Or do you want to live your whole life forgetting about it?”

****

The girl who was running hard looked behind her.

The monster was still flying there.

Without even realizing it, I hold on to my younger brother’s hand.

If you stop for even a moment, that monster will tear you and your sister to pieces.

“Sister, I’m having a hard time…!”

“Don’t say it! Run with that much force!”

My sister said that, Jiyeon was also at her limit.

I was out of breath, and my heart felt like it was going to burst.

My weak legs were shaking as if they would collapse at any moment.

But I can’t stop.

This is because the results were clearly visible even at a young age.

‘God…..!’

On the other hand, the monster’s speed did not decrease at all.

Rather, it was getting closer.

If it’s natural, it’s natural.

My younger brother is only 6 years old.

He is young and his stamina is low now.

The running speed is getting slower.

You can never escape like this.

-Let go of your brother’s hand.

-You can survive if you run alone.

-You know that we’re both going to die anyway.

Suddenly, I shake off the temptation ringing in my head.

As if to resist, he held his younger brother’s hand even stronger.

Rather than running away and leaving this child behind, I’d rather just die!

“Uh, in front of my sister!”

“……Huh?”

Is it because I closed my eyes tight for a moment?

I later discovered another monster jumping out of the alley.

I barely managed to stop my feet.

Because of that, I lost my balance and almost fell.

My legs, pushed to their limits, screamed.

But there is no time to worry about that.

‘Behind!’

The monster from earlier was still chasing behind me.

The monster seems to have realized that there is no way to escape.

The walk was much more relaxed than before.

There is no way out for both the left and right.

Front and rear were completely blocked.

despair.

Even at a young age, I was able to fully feel that emotion.

“Sister… … .”

“It’s okay. are you okay. It’ll be okay…!”

Jiyeon’s voice as she spoke was also trembling.

The monsters are getting closer.

Jiyeon had her younger brother crouch against the wall and stood in front of him.

As if protecting his younger sister with his own body.

However, that fragile shield was so fragile that it would fall over with a single kick.

Even though she knew that, Jiyeon spread her arms out to cover her sister.

The monsters are getting closer.

“Ugh! Sister…are we going to die?”

“No! Who dies! are you okay. Because it’ll be okay… … .”

‘Ugh!’

Suddenly, tears welled up in my eyes.

There was no way that delay wasn’t scary.

What on earth did they do wrong?

I just wanted to give my sister a taste of the ice cream that is only sold in town.

I just brought it here with my hard-earned pocket money.

My younger sister also came with high expectations.

Why on earth did this child have to go through this!

‘God, I’m okay. sorry. So please, please at least save my younger brother!’

The sky did not answer those words.

The monster that had already approached raised its hand.

Jiyeon just looked at that scene helplessly.

Ah, those monstrous arms will tear me in two.

Next, he will try to kill his younger brother.

I just want to prevent that somehow.

But he has no power.

I can’t do anything other than be a shield, like protecting my younger brother.

‘no!’

Feeling a mixture of fear and helplessness,

Jiyeon hugged her younger sister.

Looking at his own corpse, he expects low-intelligence monsters to see it as a corpse.

Of course, it was just an absurd wish.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have at least one such miracle?

“Sister…!”

“It’s okay! I will definitely protect you!”

Jiyeon closed her eyes tightly at the impending death.

‘…..?’

But no matter how much time passed, nothing happened.

The terrifying sound of the monster that had been ringing in my ears suddenly stopped.

Am I dead? Without even feeling the pain?

For that reason, my younger brother’s warm body temperature was still vivid.

“……Huh?”

Jiyeon cautiously opened her eyes.

And saw.

A miracle has come down.

“Are you okay?”

A man stands in front of her.

A tall, handsome man with black hair.

The man, wearing black gloves on both hands, was holding the monster’s rugged arms with his hands.

The force was so strong that the monster’s arm broke with a crunching sound.

“Who are you?”

Jiyeon asked without realizing it.

In hindsight, it was a stupid question.

That’s all I was curious about right now.

The man looked slightly embarrassed and answered with a serious expression.

“Not a hero… but a person who plays a hero as a hobby?”

Ah, you’re a hero.

Then I understood.

If he was a hero, it made sense that he saved us and that he was that strong.

“Sorry, I came too late. It’s okay now.”

The man said with a kind smile.

“You tried to protect your little sister even though you were still young. Thanks to you guys, it’s not too late. Thank you.”

This is an unusual situation where the person who rescued the person actually expresses gratitude.

Those words were so warm and kind.

Jiyeon burst into tears without realizing it.

However, he was shocked and cried out.

“Back! Behind you!”

“Kiyaaa!”

Before I knew it, another monster was rushing towards me.

The man was not embarrassed and lifted the monster he was holding in his hand and swung it like a bat.

Quang!

With a roar, the two tangled monsters fall out.

In particular, the arm on the side that was thrown was twisted like a twist.

“Kiyaaa!”

As if that wasn’t enough to defeat the monster, it charged again.

The man flew forward and tackled him.

There was a need to get him away from children at least a little bit.

Just like playing American football, you grab the monsters with both arms and throw them away.

The monsters rolled on the floor again due to the overwhelming force.

Perhaps because they didn’t intend to make a big attack, they jumped up again.

The man clicked his tongue and clenched his fist.

“Are you okay in front of the kids?”

He doesn’t seem to consider the monster a threat at all.

It’s as if they’re saying that catching mosquitoes makes your hands dirty.

It would be nice if it could be handled cleanly, but

Rather, he seemed to think that controlling strength appropriately was the problem.

“Bitter, I can’t help it.”

The man shook his head and licked his lips regretfully.

Meanwhile, the monsters attacked again.

“Kiyaaa!”

Punch your fist towards the front.

That was all.

And that was the end of it all.

‘ah… … .’

The ground shook and the air shook.

This is not a metaphor; the wind pressure alone was enough to shake the girls’ hair.

The bodies of the monsters that met that fist directly exploded.

The monster turned into a piece of meat falls to the floor.

The scattered blood soaked the floor like raindrops.

The blood was surprisingly red.

The man deliberately moved closer to the children, perhaps to hide the gruesome sight.

“Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Ah, yes… … .”

Jiyeon, with a blank expression, nodded.

She still couldn’t believe what was happening.

The man in front of me easily defeated those monsters as if they were toys.

‘Hey, this is a hero…!’

Amazing people breathing fire and breaking rocks like you only see on TV.

I can’t believe there is such a person in front of me.

That fact was enough to make the girl forget her fear and arouse her excitement.

“Hey, thank you!”

“I love it!”

The sisters bowed with tears in their eyes.

The man looked at the two as if they were cute.

“Maybe monsters won’t come here anymore. Still, just in case, go over there and get guidance from the police.”

“Ah, yes! Thank you! Ho, can you tell me your name?”

“Kim Yu-jin. This is Yujin Kim, attending the nearby academy.”

The man who said that ran to another place.

He’s probably going to save someone like himself like he is doing now.

I quietly look at his back.

‘You said Kim Yu-jin… … .’

The girl engraved the name of the hero who saved her and her sister on her heart.

When I found out that the hero was the successor to the infamous Black Heaven,

Although it happened a little later.
