Breaking Up With the Number 1 S-Class chapter 20

20 – The destroyed world, and awakening [EPISODE – 1]

I acquired the [Hero] skill and became a body that did not feel tired.

It had already been three days since I became unable to sleep at night.

Still, I felt a little anxious because I didn’t sleep, and I tried to force myself to sleep, but I couldn’t sleep no matter how much I lay down, so I accepted it.

However, even in the middle of accepting it, I had one question.

It was a very simple question.

I felt no fatigue, no desire to sleep, but all other senses were alive.

Emotions such as joy and sadness, tactile sensations that come into contact with the skin, stress and sense of achievement after hard work, etc. are all alive.

So, if I am seriously injured in battle and forced to close my eyes, what if that happens.

‘Can I sleep?’ I had a question.

For example, if he could no longer perform life activities, he would lose consciousness, and it was a question of what would happen in this case.

Of course, we know that sleeping and losing consciousness are similar but different behaviors, and it is a matter of thinking a little deeper about them, but aren’t they the most similar behaviors?

It was well worth thinking about.

So I thought of doing an experiment.

I once thought about forcing myself to lose consciousness by hurting my body just enough to not die.

That made me wonder what kind of condition I would be in.

However, I also stopped.

Because the risk was too great.

If it goes wrong then I’ll just die.

No matter how curious and interesting the story was, it was not necessary to know it at the risk of life.

That’s why I let go of the situation, thinking only ‘I’ll find out someday’.

But then the situation came.

I lost consciousness and finally forced myself to close my eyes.

Like it or not, now I can see what will happen if I force myself to lose consciousness.

“Um… here?”

That way, when I became conscious, I was able to face another world.

I can assure you, this was absolutely not a dream.

This was definitely a different world.

I was a little surprised.

I wondered if I would have a dream if I lost consciousness, and I wondered if I would recall the past.

Being in a different world feels like something new.

However, for now, the desire to explore this world took the lead.

I looked around and started walking out.

“There’s no one…”

It was a dark and red world.

The city was burning in an all-black sky.

It was hot around, and it was very difficult to breathe.

It felt like my lungs were burning.

I was just breathing, and I felt like I could get a permanent disability if I went wrong.

Fortunately, I don’t think that will happen because my body is the body of a warrior right now.

“yes?”

Anyway, when I could move like this, I walked out.

And I was able to meet the person sitting in the center of the burning world.

I could see her back sitting on the floor.

I couldn’t see her face, but she was a pretty mysterious woman with shiny silver hair.

“Hey… who are you?”

“…”

The woman didn’t answer.

However, I strode toward her.

And eventually, when I stood in front of the silver woman, the woman opened her mouth.

“It can’t go on like this…”

I thought her voice was beautiful. And I felt some power.

However, it was a very sad voice.

“Hero… please… stop the Nephilim.”

The woman didn’t turn her head, but it was definitely something she said to me.

I couldn’t help but bewildered, not knowing what the hell this woman was talking about.

I needed a more detailed explanation of what went wrong and what the Nephilim were.

However, for some reason, I could see that they were cries of crisis and warning.

Somehow I felt that way.

“Please take this… and go back. This… will help, albeit weakly.”

Eventually, the woman reached out and handed me something.

It was like a white crystal.

I reached for it. And when my hand touched the crystal to grab it, the crystal disappeared.

No, it’s not gone.

The crystal seeped into my body.

“Hero. You must not lose again.”

And with the goddess’ words, I was able to return to the original world.

ㅡ ㅡ ㅡ

I came to my senses.

The musty smell of medicine, the beeping sound of machinery.

At once I knew where this place was.

This was a hospital, and I was lying in bed.

I reached out and put it on my stomach.

And I was able to see myself being treated much better than I thought.

It seems that there is no big problem.

“Oh… oppa!?”

When I opened my eyes, I started hearing a familiar voice next to me.

It was a voice I heard every morning and every night, but with a touch of sadness.

The owner of the voice was my younger sister Lee Si-eun.

“Oh, brother… I missed you.”

Lee Si-eun shed tears and hugged me.

I stroked Lee Si-eun’s hair.

It seems that he was very worried.

“Brother… are you okay now? Isn’t brother dying?”

Hugging me, Lee Si-eun kept asking questions.

It was definitely cause for concern.

I had a pierced stomach wound, and that kind of wound was never a wound that a normal person could handle.

However, I am very healthy now.

As for how healthy he was, he was much healthier than before his stomach was pierced.

I don’t know why, but my energy boils over.

I’ll have to test how much my strength is now, but now I feel a different level of strength than before.

“Why am I dying, Si-eun?”

So I was very healthy.

First of all, I told Lee Si-eun that she was healthy.

I showed off my health by showing off the muscles on my arms.

“Huh…”

Fortunately, Lee Si-eun’s tears stopped when she saw me like that.

I haven’t been able to smile yet, but fortunately I’m not crying.

“Siwoo hyung… are you okay? Are you sick anywhere?”

And while holding Lee Si-eun like that, Park Jin-soo came to me.

Park Jin-su didn’t hug me, but he was looking at me with eyes full of tears.

“Yes. I’m fine. There are no after effects.”

I said frankly.

When I put my hand on my stomach earlier, I found myself completely cured.

I don’t know if it’s because of the hero’s ability, but the monster-like body seems to be still the same.

“I’m so glad. I’m so glad. Siwoo hyung-nim.”

Hearing my answer, Park Jin-soo sat down and began to cry.

It seems that relief has loosened up the strength of his legs.

And there was someone watching us from a distance.

“Hey… Shi… Siwoo… I’m really sorry.”

The red-haired girl, Park Jin-ha, the one who made me like this.

Fortunately, the misunderstanding seems to have been resolved, and Park Jin-ha no longer attacked me.

Park Jin-ha apologized to me with a very apologetic expression.

“Siwoo hyung, I committed a mortal sin.”

And as I was staring at Park Jin-ha, Park Jin-soo knelt down to me.

He lowered his head and began begging me for forgiveness.

If you think about it from Park Jin-soo’s point of view, it seems that what happened to me right now seems to be very sorry.

“It’s my fault that I raised you to be too naive. I’m really sorry. I know it’s shameless to say this, but I’ll definitely educate you, so please forgive me just once.”

Park Jin-soo began to pray for me as if he was miserable.

I begged, banging my head on the hard hospital floor.

He continued to apologize for what happened.

“Huh… I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I dared to… do something to my brother’s lifesaver.”

And Park Jin-ha shed tears as she watched her older brother lie down on me and pray.

Tears dripped down her cute face between her red hair.

“To pay back for saving my brother with something like this. I really committed a mortal sin.”

And soon, Park Jin-ha also went to Park Jin-su’s side and began to pray for me.

Beneath my feet was the scene of brother and sister Park Jin-soo and Park Jin-ha begging for forgiveness.

“Originally, I should die, but I’m shameless, but please help me. I don’t want to die. I want to live. I have to live because of my brother…”

Park Jin-ha sobbed while begging for my forgiveness.

It seemed that he was overcome with emotions.

“I won’t tell you to save my life with my bare mouth. I’ll do anything if you spare my life.”

If you think about it, I am Park Jin-soo’s lifesaver no matter what.

I was a victim who almost died after being stabbed by Park Jin-ha.

Now that all misunderstandings have been resolved, it might have been a natural step for Park Jin-ha to pray to me.

“Hmm…”

I fell into thought for a moment as I saw brother and sister Park Jin-soo and Park Jin-ha begging for forgiveness from me.

“Are you really going to do anything?”

Then, he asked Park Jin-ha.
