101 – No normal people – 2
It can be said that conversation between people is like applause.
Two hands must hit each other properly to make a sound.
That’s what we call applause.
The same goes for conversation. We need to exchange words that suit each other.
If only the topic that only I know, or only the other person wants to say.
It’s not a conversation, it’s just like talking to yourself into the air.
… And now, the situation was exactly that.
‘What kind of bullshit are you talking about all of a sudden? revenge? what revenge? to whom?’
Does this woman, like Kwak Hyuk, have bad feelings for Irina?
But neither Irina nor the others have ever said such a thing?
More than anything, Sujin Hyun had a strong feeling that she was avoiding Irina as much as possible.
It wasn’t that he was scared, but that he wouldn’t bump into him because it would cause serious damage if he stuck.
The last time, when Hyun Su-jin appeared in front of me, Irina appeared right away.
Before that, that woman had left immediately as if she was tired when we bumped into her.
‘If I think about those parts, I’m not the type who wants to get revenge on Irina.’
What the hell are you talking about, I wanted to ask.
But instead of opening my mouth, I decided to just keep my mouth shut.
It’s true that silence is golden in these circumstances.
How many minutes had passed like that?
“… answer. Are you planning not to?”
As if he couldn’t wait for the silence on this side any longer, Hyun Soo-jin fired at him.
In response to that response, once again, without thinking, ‘I don’t know what you mean.’ I was about to say
be patient If you persevere, as always, the other side will take care of themselves.
The words that the other side can’t stand are worth more than the answer you get from asking a question from this side.
“I don’t know what you’re expecting, but you better quit. Even for yourself.”
“… No matter what you say, in the end, you and I are enemies.”
“therefore?”
“It’s not easy to believe.”
yes. So tell me more About you and about that revenge.
If you’re frustrated, bring out everything you know in front of me.
“right. I’m not the enemy of the other supernatural powers. Because you are a traitor But at least you can’t. Do you know why? It’s because your existence itself is proof of betrayal in the first place.”
… what are you saying all of a sudden Why is my existence evidence of betrayal?
I was dumbfounded and looked at Hyun Soo-jin, and she smiled.
“family.”
Why are you suddenly bringing up family stories?
“Your family. There is none.”
… No matter how much I don’t have a family, it’s unpleasant to blow a pad lip like that.
I was so upset at the moment that I wanted to blow the first bread, but I held back for once.
As I wanted, Hyun Su-jin was blowing very well at the moment.
“Yes. There is not. it’s an orphan I got caught up in a massive attack by monsters a long time ago… .”
“Think, think, speak. so educated. No, have you been brainwashed?”
Displeasure has exceeded the limit. No matter how low-level civil servant life is, it has been tempered.
Now, though, it has reached the level where he can easily pass over a number of personal attacks.
Still, he has passed the stage of being patient with those who openly quarrel with him.
“excuse me. What kind of nonsense have you been talking about since before? .”
Tingle-!
‘uh?’
Sparks flew in front of my eyes. Suddenly, the field of view flashes white.
Instinctively, I reached out and grabbed the knife I was aiming for earlier.
Elder, that cowardly bitch must have been ambush.
yes. It will. The things that kidnapped Suhyeon and even brainwashed her.
Those who betrayed and abandoned everything, driven by their own desires.
Such a surprise attack would not have been something to worry about.
I was too careless. I was just hanging out.
Stupid, so it shouldn’t have been. I couldn’t let go!
Even now, after aiming for an opening and attacking once… .
“Let’s make a promise. We will not die!”
“Promise everyone. All must, survive!”
A very faint voice passed through my head. and sight.
It’s a look I’ve seen before. yes. It remains clearly in the memory.
Children huddled together. and two hands clasped together.
It was a space full of gray, with everyone wearing the same clothes.
thought it was a dream Everything was a first.
But why all of a sudden Does that look come to mind now?
“Baek Seo-jin.”
As if answering my question, I hear Hyun Su-jin’s voice.
“Don’t you think it’s strange? How can you, a mere supernatural power, fight so fiercely against Elder and S-rank? And standing like this without any side effects or sequelae.”
The first is a privilege that no one knows about and that only I have.
It is explained as a ‘characteristic’ that can see as a third eye.
Thanks to the characteristics of the gatekeeper, it occupied a lot of advantageous parts in the battle part.
‘yes. So the answer to the first part is yes. By the way… .’
second part. After fighting so fiercely and terribly.
Others suffered serious injuries that made them worry about survival right away.
I myself who endured it casually and overcame it and lived a fine life.
The explanation for that part cannot be fully explained even with this characteristic.
“Because you are too strong. Or is it because it is unusual? There’s a degree to that too. Everyone is missing it because they are just dazzled by the ridiculous results you set up. Can it be overstated by saying that it is really strong or that it has such a constitution?”
I had nothing to say. I couldn’t think of anything to respond to.
Rather, Hyun Soo-jin’s words made her think of the third question herself.
The fighting ability that comes out even in situations where the characteristic is not yet manifested.
At first, even if you want to be pushed, at some point you adapt and hold on.
It was so brilliant that it was strange to see it as simply a talent.
“Isn’t it strange? Because I think about it. Normal people can’t explain it.”
I wanted to ignore it, I wanted to deny it, but I couldn’t.
Someone else knows a secret that even I don’t know. Thinking like that, I can’t resist.
I have a strange feeling that I must know it, but I must listen to it unconditionally.
“So, you seem to know something?”
So, without realizing it, I said that in a slightly urgent tone.
It shouldn’t be like this. If you give an advantage to the other party, they will be dragged around.
Around the time he was worried, Hyun Su-jin nodded and parted his lips.
“I know. yes, i don’t know it’s made Baek Seo-jin. the existence of you He was not born by the providence of the world. It was forcibly made by the damn people!”
“how… .”
“How sure?”
In an instant, a smile forms on Hyun Soo-jin’s lips.
I’m happy, I’m having fun So it is never painted.
That was the self-deprecating laugh of a person who remembers, someone who was left alone.
“It is the same. with that person.”
There was no way to know who that person was. However, one thing is certain.
The fact that ‘that person’ that Sujin Hyun is talking about was very important to that woman.
Maybe that’s why he abandoned everything and became an elder.
“The guys who led it are alive. Even openly alive, they are enjoying themselves. Those who did such dirty things, as if nothing had happened!”
Sujin Hyun takes one more step forward.
In line with that, he did not step back.
“Let’s go together. I’ll let you know. Let me remind you. Your brothers and sisters, how they were used and how they disappeared. And let’s get revenge together. for them.”
revenge. Why does the word touch you so boldly?
It was a moment, but I almost grabbed her outstretched hand without realizing it.
Yes, until one question popped into my head and stopped me.
“… Revenge, did you say? Hyun Soo-jin.”
“yes. revenge. For you and for those who have been in the same situation as you.”
“These are the ones who committed acts against humanity, that’s how it sounds to me.”
“right. You can look at it like that. I’ll tell you more as we go. So… .”
“In the end, you are no different, are you?”
“… what?”
One question that could calm my trembling heart.
Yes, let’s say there were circumstances that made that woman have no choice but to do that.
Let’s say that somewhere in the current Republic of Korea, there are people who have committed anti-humanitarian acts.
I want revenge on them, destruction for their actions. Yes, I understand.
However, if there is one thing that cannot be overlooked.
“The innocent people who died and were injured because of your vengeance, and who will.”
In order to relieve their resentment, they are creating another resentment.
He is piling up another grudge saying that he will pay back the grudge.
Revenge is true revenge only for the target.
That is, what Hyun Su-jin is trying to do now cannot be called revenge.
“… Think carefully about your next words.”
I wonder if Hyun Su-jin also noticed the question I had.
All of the quiet energy from before disappears, and a hideous thing takes its place.
It feels like watching a rolling tsunami that is about to run amok at any moment.
“So, what I want to say is.”
But can you be afraid to lower your head here?
There is a public servant jjambab that treats malicious civil complaints.
Sorry for giving in to this, I had no intention of saying anything.
“You are the same. Those you want to avenge, or you. All.”
Kwaaang-!
At the same time as the words ended, a deafening explosion was heard.
Sujin Hyun, who was pissed off, fired the attack as it was… isn’t it?
‘what. that… Isn’t that the front door… ?’
It flew past me and hit Hyun Su-jin.
hit. it is the front door Made very sturdily, that front door is right!
“This crazy dog shit, damn it! How dare you keep your eyes on someone!”
And right next to it, a golden flash terribly mashed into it.
