Chapter 698: Defend the Continent, Army of Holy Light (1)

‘Fuck, I didn’t hear that correctly, did I?’

It was only momentary, but my emotions almost got shaken. It was enough to cause a broadcast accident of standing up abruptly and unknowingly if I didn’t keep thinking of sad things. I was worried that the bastard would go Doom Hyunsung.

‘What the hell. It wasn’t this kind of atmosphere. Fuck, it was a moving atmosphere, but why did he react like that? Fuck. What’s the problem?’

I wondered if I hadn’t checked on Kim Hyunsung for far too long.

‘Sigh… Fuck… But how could I have done that? I’m too busy.’

I was still too busy fighting with the Lee Kiyoung of the past, and I had a lot to pay attention to besides him.

Of course, I did manage to keep some distance. It was meaningless to treat him tenderly and take care of him at that point.

Kim Hyunsung had to stick a knife into Lee Kiyoung’s stomach anyway… It was based on the idea that there was no need to get closer to him in the current state.

Even so, I had to think about whether I didn’t give enough care. Perhaps I had ignored the signal Kim Hyunsung sent desperately.

Maybe I pretended not to see the rescue signal he sent before causing something unexpected.

It seemed like that when I looked at the messages piled up. Hyunsung hadn’t said anything other than that, but his red eyes looked cold.

‘No. Hyunsung. You can’t be corrupted and go full Doom.’

Wouldn’t it be better to invite him to the mental clinic with Dr. Kiyoung? Wouldn’t it be better to conduct a personal class even though we were running out of time?

I thought everything was ready, but of course, I was missing the most crucial part.

Kim Hyunsung looked nervous enough to seriously consider whether it would be better to delay it for a few more hours.

He was holding his sword with a self-helping smile, but it felt like he was going to cause some trouble.

‘I have to take him to the mental clinic.’

I thought about that, but I couldn’t stop him either way.

-S-Sora… W-Wait. Hihi… Hihi. I-I’ll k-kill them all. I’ll kill them all.

‘Hayan. Fuck. Wait. I think something is wrong now.’

-It will open in a little while. It has to. He… He’ll be hiding in the door over there. The i-idiot who made Sora t-that way… will be hiding… It’s opening. S-See? See, Sora? It’s… It’s opening! It’s opening!

There was no way to stop Jung Hayan, who was already exhaling magical power and trying to bring in the outer beings.

‘Jihye. I think you have to do something, Jihye.’

-Then… shall we pack our luggage? Yeon-soo. Did you check if anything was missing in your luggage?

-Yes, unnie! But are we really running away?

-Then are we not? Look carefully. Keep an eye on Noah’s Ark. I know what he said, but if things go awry, he might leave us behind.

‘Fuck, Jihye. How can you already be getting ready to run away?’

I didn’t expect much from her anyway. At that moment, there was only Cha Heera. She had to fix that situation.

“…”

“…”

-Hahahahahahahaha.

I was wrong. Fuck, she was already done for, but I still had a trustworthy card with me.

‘Cho Hyejin, my friend, I’m counting on you.’

-I’m… I’m never going to let them do that. I’ll risk my life to stop them. I have to stop them.

‘No, please don’t stop them, fuck.’

That was weird. Fuck. It seemed like we had hope lately, but suddenly it felt like our position had changed to that of despair.

It was so ridiculous that I couldn’t help but laugh. Park Deokgu was already looking at the boat happily. That pig bastard seemed to be just waiting for the moment to use it.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beeeeeee-

‘What? Fuck! Hey, Raphael, what’s up with you? Raphael, what is it? Hey. Raphael is dying. Fuck. Raphael is dying.’

Wasn’t he supposed to come back alive from hell? It caught my eyes that the belated priests jumped on top of Raphael and gave a shock to his heart.

-How is he?

-I-It’s too late. His heart… stopped…

‘Do not give up. Don’t give up.’

-Keep adding divine power!

-His heart has already stopped. Now…

-It doesn’t matter! If we can’t keep him alive, we’ll die too. Turn him to undead if you have to. One way or another, keep the life-support equipment alive! Just make him breathe!

‘Please don’t give up. Fuck… Don’t turn him undead! Fuck, I’m listening to everything. I can hear you all.’

What was up with those guys’ behaviors right before we even started? We had to wage war soon, so why were they acting like that?

I thought that I shouldn’t show my sour face in front of the public, but it kept getting wrinkled without my knowledge.

Wouldn’t it be better to run already? Fuck, was I the only one who wanted to save the continent? Was it like that? What the fuck. I couldn’t just run, however, because of the bet. It wasn’t fair. Fuck. Even Dialugia’s side didn’t look good.

I peeked through the telescope, and all the shouting was going back and forth. I had to wonder once again if everything was ruined.

I slowly returned my gaze at Kim Hyunsung, but nothing had changed. He just slowly looked at the Goddess’s Mirror on the wall.

Naturally, I realized that my face was reflected in the sky. That’s it for silence on the victims. I had to shout out loud like politicians often did that it was time to fight, but my head suddenly started to go blank.

‘What… Come on, bastard …Do you have any plans on fighting at all?’

That was the first time he had an expression that looked so unmotivated. It felt like he seemed to be thinking along the lines of, ‘Well… if I save the continent… well… it’s saved, but if I don’t, it can’t be helped. It’s not even under my jurisdiction anyway.’

One thing I was able to feel relieved about was that he was at least carrying his sword. At least it didn’t seem that he would avoid the battle, but it felt like he was forced to the battlefield.

I had to say something. I had to say anything that could inspire his feelings.

“Think again about what we have been through and what we are here for. The end has come. It is time for our hardships to bear fruition. The time has come to overcome the pain in your heart and ring the bell of victory.”

‘Hyunsung. Fuck, you’ve had a hard time. Now you have to put a period on it. It was a long journey. Think about it again.’

“You may have to go through another pain, but we have learned how to overcome it. We have learned from the past how to treat and endure wounds. You don’t have to be afraid. Once healed, you will become more resilient and stronger.”

‘Think. How hard has it been? Still, we have endured well. You also healed a lot of wounds and became stronger, right?’

“We must take back our sky.”

‘Do you remember the agreement at sunset?’

“We must protect the place where we live and win what’s ours.”

‘You watched the sunset with me, right?’

I hadn’t even had time to take a good look at his face.

-Hihihihihi! Hihihi! Hihihihi! I’m killing them all! All of them!

The sky had begun to open, and Jung Hayan was helping it.

I wished that the outer god and the angels were all a lie. In fact, if they didn’t come out, I could do a great job once again with the help of the angel I created and Belial.

Weren’t they really not coming in? It was a situation in which I had to turn the happiness circuit hard.

Of course, the surroundings become noisy. I tried to somehow raise the people’s will to fight by delivering a motivational speech, but I saw their stiff expressions when the sky really opened up.

The question of whether we could endure the battle with the demons in the form of angels, the fear of whether we really had to face the powerful energy seen from the outside… Without having to ask, I thought they could answer them by just looking.

I could feel it too. I began to see something huge reaching out. To make matters worse, our secret weapon was in a situation where he had no willingness to fight.

“…”

“…”

‘Let’s run.’

I would be losing the bet, but abandonment must always be done cold-bloodedly.

The moment one thought it was time to quit, it was right to do so right away. To prepare Noah’s ark, I sent a signal to manager Kim Mi-young, and she nodded with a puzzled face.

“We will win. I will take the lead in this battle.”

‘I’m going.’

“I hope you’ll all be at ease and fight. I can’t see anything other than victory in my eyes.”

‘Throw off all the pain and confinement in this world.’

“When there is something to protect, we have to show how strong humanity can be.”

‘I am leaving in search of happiness!’

“There is no impossible fight.”

‘It seems like this one is.’

“Put your trust in me and pick up your weapon. I will be with you. I will be charging ahead of you.”

‘Ah, I’m really sorry. I didn’t know things would be like this. Ah… Fuck, the pigeons are really popping out… I have to run quickly now. Oh, but what about Lucifer? What was the bet again?’

I slowly stood up while I was still lost in thoughts. I had to get ready right away so that I could take the others and run.

As I glanced through the telescope, I saw a flock of pigeons. The figure was indeed foreign, and they were flying with some kind of weapon. Still, it would be like a joke to currently take an interest in that.

‘They really came.’

After all, people had to give up their greed. Why did I only realize that at that moment?

When I let go of the thing I was holding tightly, not wanting to lose in any way, I started to feel as comfortable as taking Gaviscon. (Editor Note: heartburn medicine)

‘We come to life empty-handed and go back empty-handed anyway…’

What had I been so greedy and sacrificing my body for? I turned my head completely because I thought I would only have regrets if I kept looking at it any longer. However, at that moment…

Baaaaaaaaaaaang!!

The whole ground began to ring with a roaring sound.

Baaaaaaaaaaaang!!

‘Hayan? Have you already started?’

It seemed that she didn’t forget the manual. She was the most important person right after the battle started.

Without Kim Hyunsung, the battle couldn’t be won, but without Jung Hayan, a battle couldn’t even be established. That was without exaggeration. The role given to her was the top priority for the Continental Union.

I was proud that she was trying hard, but it was time to take Sora and leave. Her magic power would be restored anyway, but I wanted to tell her to stop using it and save it for the time being. Noah’s Ark plan could have been disrupted.

-Die… Every last one of you must die!

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanng!!

-S-Sora… y-you can see this, right? Are you watching?

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanng!!

“Huh…”

Falling over the north was an intense gravity created with an enormous density.

-Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!

-Get ready for battle! Get ready for battle!!!!!!

-Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!

The shouts of ally troops ripped through my ears. Just as the role I gave them. We wouldn’t have a siege battle with those flying in the air in the first place. Jung Hayan had played her role perfectly.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!!

If there was anything different from before, her range and power were beyond imagination.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!!

I noticed that the entire north was sinking from the exact starting point of the forward base. It was so absurd that I couldn’t even speak.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!!

The pigeons that were flying in the sky were buried on the ground like ants being stepped on.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!!!

It was a sight that made me perplexed no matter how many times I had seen it. It wasn’t in just some critical areas. From the continent’s one end to the other end, every place was bombarded without mercy. The difference was that it didn’t come up again.

The magical power that contained unimaginable power made the pigeons’ wings completely useless.

I heard stories about Jung Hayan and actually saw her in action, but it was so splendid that it made my mouth wide open.

‘Is that even something humans can do?’

Was she really human? How was that possible? How could someone do that all over the continent…

‘No… way…’

At the majesty that Jung Hayan showed, I unknowingly shouted without knowing it.

“Defend the continent, Army of the Holy Light!”

Collective roars had now begun to erupt.
