127 Tues – New Category (5)
A staff, but in fact, it was a large and heavy weapon that could be described as a heavy stone pillar.
The power it wields with all its power is like being hit by a heavy truck with all its power.
And now, the staff flew toward the hunters as if they were sweeping the ground.
‘Die.’
Those who could not avoid it felt death.
Their thought was that there was no way to deal with that troll, who was more than a high-ranking demon, as long as Jason, the S-class hunter they trusted, was knocked out by an unexpected blow called the Demon Realm Spirit.
“Aww!”
“Big…”
And a powerful shock wave swept through them.
They rolled the ground and of course they thought they were dead.
‘Are you alive?!’

Max was one of them.However, he rolled his eyes on the floor with the ringing tinnitus and slowly opened his eyes. Although his body throbbed, he did not die. The other hunters did the same.
“Unbelievable.”

Max, having managed to come to his senses, turned around. What appears to be blurry is someone who has blocked the wielded wand alone.For once, they knew that they had survived thanks to that.
‘Eve.’
He unconsciously repeated her name.
Holding a sword, which is comparable to a troll’s staff, a sword that is comparable to a toothpick, Eve persevered.
The white shirt was stained red with the blood that had burst out. The ground he had stepped on with his shaking legs was also deeply smashed and dug up.
Although he raised his power, Eve still lacked training in a human body.
“ha…”
Still, Eve persevered. Of course, that the inside was filled with pure anger, and that the act of blocking the wand was in fact not wanting to be defeated by the troll who ignored him, the other people who only looked at his back had no way of knowing.

Meanwhile, CNU finished the troll.The mud dolls, which were constantly attacking, collapsed in the rain, and those who understood the situation cheered.
“Eve!”
However, at that moment, Max, who had risen up with cheers as well, took a deep breath and widened his eyes at the sound of Shin-woo’s shout.
And without any hesitation, he flew away. Of those who could move now, the person closest to Eve was herself.
‘…I can’t stand it.’
Eve, whose vision was blurry, had an intuition when she saw the magic cannon flying towards her. As a human body that has not yet adapted and trained less, it has already reached its limit.
At that moment, several emotions crossed. Disappointment with yourself, feelings of defeat, anger, etc.
Of course, even if this body is shattered, Eve will not die. Because even if only one cell is alive, it is a super creature that can be revived again.
But the most problematic thing is that if this body is destroyed here, all the things Shinwoo planned will be thwarted.
Eve bit her lip. This isn’t the first time emotions haven’t been able to calculate what’s going to happen ahead of time.
It was an expected side effect, but somehow only painful results came back every time.
“Ugh…”
But at that moment, someone roughly pushed her, unable to move.
Eve, who could not resist, rolled over the floor, and quickly got up with her wide-open eyes.
It was determined that someone attacked him from behind.
“why…”
And when he saw that scene, a voice of dismay came out of his mouth without knowing it.
In exchange for pushing her away, Max, who was hit with a magic cannon shot by the demon spirit, was rolling on the floor with his half-burned body.
Even with that huge brain, Eve stopped thinking for a moment. That was such a shocking thing.
“That is… the hope of further development in the future… the hope of mankind…”

Max muttered in a hoarse voice.And when Eve heard those words, she fell into even more extreme confusion.
It was difficult to control the emotions that were floating around in the moment, let alone logical thoughts.
It was shocking that he was saved by humans, and it was also questionable that Max called himself the hope of mankind.

Most of all, he couldn’t understand why Max had made such a choice for him. Because Eve doesn’t know what sacrifices humans are talking about, and she doesn’t even want to know.“Surviving…the people…my…”
He barely moved his immobile hand and brought it to her shoe.
A human touched her body without permission, but Eve, who is now in a stunned state, did not say or do anything.
‘You said you didn’t understand the Special Forces. Why did you choose yourself even though you were afraid? I think the reason is because of the diversity you picked as a human strength. Some people risk their lives to protect someone. I’m afraid. Even if you almost lose, throw yourself and fight the enemy.’
The heavy voice of Shin-woo, who had dealt with the demon spirit in the Hive consciousness, echoed.
Eve didn’t say anything. The shock did not go away easily.
The order to retreat from some who had managed to come to her senses forced her legs to move.

“Take care of me. He’s really strong and fights well, but he’s still young. It’ll be a big shock.”
“…it’s a big shock. Thank you.”
A medic bandaged Eve’s limbs.
Neither I nor Eve recovered quickly from internal or fatal wounds, but not all wounds were erased to avoid suspicion.
Eve, who would normally growl, now leaned against me with a blank face.
The shock was so great that others could see. It was just that the kind of shock was a little different from what they expected.
“It’s such a shock to be saved by humans? But I think you’d know now. They deserve to be with us.”
In the end, I had no choice but to ask a little more directly.
“It’s true that you’re angry at being saved by a human, but that’s not the most important thing.”
Seeing the people rushing to collect the bodies and prepare for retreat, Eve shook her head in an unexpectedly quiet voice.
Eve doesn’t have to hide her feelings. That means now is the truth.
In addition, the consciousness of the colony, which is greatly affected by Eve’s emotions, was very calm. I didn’t know what he was thinking, though.
“I’ve been stupid all this time.”
“Are you stupid?”
The atmosphere was dreary. Especially since I’m talking calmly. If it was Eve I knew, she would sell her hat even if she was furious and ran rampant on the street.
“In the past, when I became one with you, I thought that it would be the end of it all. I thought that just by doing everything together, I would be happy and that everything would work out. My father, my god, and another owner of the Legion. But we I was missing the biggest one.
We need to move faster and more drastic. Now our goal is not to become one, but to grow up and chew on those who dare to attack us.”
“…Eve?”
“Up until now, I’ve been just a young kid. And I’m just a female in love. You made me this way, you did it.”
For a moment, I got goosebumps. He couldn’t say anything, and he didn’t move a finger or an eyebrow.
Eve is now in my arms, but others will see me as hugging Eve.
Now I was feeling life threatening.
‘Now I take the lead. Up until now, I’ve moved according to your will, so this time according to my will. we are not human We are the Legion, all-eating beings. So our camouflage will be a little different from now on.’
The huge will that was smashed into his head was nothing more than a threat.
Even if the ranks are equal, I can’t control the Hive consciousness anyway, because without Eve’s cooperation, I’m still just an ordinary human. I was shocked and forgot everything I had to say.
Eve, who had her head on my chest, slowly relaxed me. At the same time, control of my body started to come back.
“But, will you always be like you are now?”
“Yeah, so don’t worry.”
“I’m glad. I thought you’d hate me.”
Eve smiled broadly as if relieved. It was a pure smile, but now he no longer looked as innocent as before.
[Is it within the prediction range?]
And the letters that floated across Eve’s face shimmered.
I didn’t know if I was going to notice it, but it was true. On the contrary, it may be said that the situation is better than predicted.
It’s only natural that Eve, who moves only with a good feeling for me, will try to take the initiative someday.

My goal was to instill as much influence as possible before then. Even in the environment around me except for me.Read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
My mother also failed, the robbery failed, and all the human beings we encountered in the meantime failed.But just before that, Max, an ordinary hunter, who had only met him for a few days, did it. He also sacrificed his life.
[I will not admit it, nor will I understand it in the first place. However, on the inside of Eve, what happened today has certainly left a very big mark.]
I don’t think a contemplative observer who peers into my head can’t be ignorant of Eve’s thoughts.
There he gave this certification, and that is enough. Even if Eve behaves wildly according to her nature, at least she will be able to avoid the worst of the situation I was worried about.
