208 Tue – Black Lightning (2)
“Oh oh!”
“The Hunters are here! Now I’m alive!”
We plunged into the battlefield where the enemy was struggling to defend. I would say how to change the battlefield with only two people, but it was the flow of the battlefield that had recently changed rapidly.
Eve slashed the body of an enemy warrior who rushed at her without giving a single glance to those who admired her.
I also took over one of them, fighting and hurriedly looking around. It wasn’t too difficult to find Cha Ji-yeon’s location. Because she was always wearing blue lightning.
A thunderbolt of judgment falling from the sky. Its strength and its beauty certainly had the power to unite people.
“Gee, now two guys who look like knights are working together to shoot Cha Ji-yeon!”
The urgent sound that was transmitted through communication through the pouring binge sound became the cause.
Having dealt with all the guys in front of me right away, I kicked off the ground and ran to where Cha Ji-yeon was.
‘hey! Why are you going?! Because Cha Ji-yeon is mine?!’
‘okay. I know.’
Of course, Eve also ran. Eve was terrified and yelled at me, “Why do you covet Cha Ji-yeon?”
‘I’m just going to say one last thing and comfort her. It’s rather good for you. I will also persuade her to join the corps.’
‘Yes, you? why?’
‘…But it’s a relationship.’
Eve’s reaction brought a snort. After all, it seemed like he was still suspicious of us or wanted to stop me from having an affair with her by any means.
‘No doubt. When you two are close to each other, especially Cha Ji-yeon, even the subtle hormone levels in her body change! Ma, like a male and female just before mating!’
‘It must be a serious misunderstanding.’
But Eve can’t stop me. In the end, we succeeded in reaching the place where Cha Ji-yeon was fighting together.
“Their bombardment is fierce. We can’t stop all of their ground forces because we can’t respond with the firepower we have right now.”
“Don’t worry, we can stop it.”
The fierce fighting was the same here. Suddenly, I looked up at the sky ahead, and numerous aircraft came out of a huge and unique ship facing the alliance’s fleet and engaged in a battle with the alliance’s air force, and the attacking ground forces were advancing with artillery bombardment here.
“What are you thinking about?”
Eve said looking up. There, Cha Ji-yeon, floating in the air, blew out a lightning bolt, sweeping away the enemy’s ground forces.
“I need time to talk to her.”
“If that’s the case, then we should get over this situation now.”
At Eve’s smirk, I also looked forward. Explosions and gunshots exploding indefinitely. There were only damaged equipment and corpses on both sides of the floor.
Besides, the enemies were still coming. It took a day or two to make excuses for advancing and analyzing the enemies that would one day collide, and now we were both getting tired of it.
I am tired of the constant warfare, and Eve is of the inefficiency of the battle with nothing more to gain.
“I can’t help it. I have to go and fight.”
“under.”
But still, more of these activities are still needed.
A shallow deception tactic planned by Cha Ji-yeon’s player. We’ve been rolling our bodies like this for a long time already. In the end, he too will be stabbed in the back by us.
“First, protect Cha Ji-yeon. There’s no way I’ll be beaten by them in the first place.”
We hit the ground at the same time. To those who don’t know what we are, we may look like heroes who jump into fierce battles without hesitation, but in fact, we all had our own insidious plans.
*
‘Come back more and more.’
Suddenly, she woke up and her eyes lit up. The place I woke up was in the middle of the battlefield. The effect of the Soul Resonance had expired, and he had managed to come to his senses.
‘Can I come to my senses next time?’
She bit her lip, looking back at her own name and memories of where she came from. Up until now, he still had most of his memories, but it was also true that they gradually faded.
[Now you will win again. And there must be Changchun’s Thunder Emperor who stood firm and stood up to guard the road]
As she landed on a nearby building, she frowned at the voice in her head. It’s a go-stop that sucks. Player Lars instructs her to deliberately defeat troops wherever she goes, raising her name even further within the Alliance.
This was not only true for Cha Ji-yeon, but also for other units under her command dispatched to the Federation.
[This is the last time. Just in time, those who will be used as supporting actors have also arrived, so it would be good to win a close victory against the two knights]
“み…”
She flinched at the sight of a pair of young men and women running towards her from afar.
Please don’t come. I’d rather not get involved with myself at all. He didn’t want them to fall into the eyes of his cruel and mean player.
“What are you standing blank for? Come on, fight.”
But they did not understand her heart.
Eve passed by him with meaningful eyes and a slight smile. The opponent is the knights of Casaras, who are considered the most offensive enemies. Using their unique power, the powerful telekinesis, they tore up nearly half of the building they were standing on and lifted them up into the air.
A devastating battle that would be astonishing to the onlookers.
[The picture of saving a seriously injured comrade wouldn’t be bad either]
But the reality was different. It was just a meticulously planned and deliberately false battle.
Cha Ji-yeon wanted to shout to run away, but no voice came out.
“I think I’m going to play with this guy’s hands.”
In a place where the gaps were gradually disappearing due to the building being lifted up and cracking and breaking, Eve sprinted like a somersault, stepping on the cracked and falling debris, maximizing all her senses.
It is an intense movement in which the bones are broken due to twisting and the ligaments of all joints cannot withstand the impact. It was a physically impossible act unless it was a body made of pluripotent cells with super-regenerating ability.
“Eve, run!”
Shin-woo, who was by his side, even gave up his own body as a footstool. Eve jumped up to his body, twisted as he leapt, and, in great bewilderment, split the body of the Knight of Cassaras with a flaming sword.
The size of the sharp slash was enough to cut down a whole building behind it.
[…]
It was so powerful that Cha Ji-yeon’s player, Lars, was embarrassed and lost his words for a moment. In the end, the last remaining enemy fell at Cha Ji-yeon’s hand, and they all landed on the ruined floor.
“Anyway, win again this time? Of course?”
Eve smiled as she looked at Cha Ji-yeon, who was standing blankly. Then, when she heard that, her body trembled.
“Eve you stay for a while.”
But before Eve could open her mouth any further, before the Alliance soldiers rushed in, he grabbed Cha Ji-yeon’s hand.
“I… where did you two go?”
“…”
In the end, only the soldiers of the Federation, who arrived late, had to wait in front of the frozen Eve, keeping their mouths open.
“Why, why? Is there a problem?”
“There’s a problem. Because you have a problem written all over your face.”
‘You have to put her mind at ease so that the player who can watch everything doesn’t notice. How?’
Kasaras’s army retreated, as expected. As thoroughly as if she retreated thanks to subduing the head of the enemy.
We were located in a nearby building that had been destroyed by bombardment from both sides. I stood in front of Cha Ji-yeon and was speechless for a moment. Outside, we can still hear loud noises such as loud voices and equipment, but it seemed to be very quiet between us now.
“no problem…”
“As an ordinary college student, there are some things that I felt while coming here.”
As if she had received an order, she shook her head and denied her condition. But I was forced to.
“…weak meat gangsik?”
“No, how to grow.”
He looked at her trembling eyes and sighed in frustration. Her eyes, on the brink of death, are hazy, although the vertigo at the time we first met is there. But I was once like that too.
When you are thinking about how to control Eve, and in the end, you lose by decision, and when you are swayed, you watch helplessly and hope.
Wouldn’t something be different if I told her about the helplessness and emptiness I felt at the time, and the process of rubbing it somehow and eventually reaching the time to do something on my own.
After all, at that time, I felt helpless by being crushed by a gigantic super creature called Eve, and by an irresistible strong person called a player.
“Have you ever had a time like that? Can’t believe… Or rather, how did you get through it?”
“It’s impossible alone.”
I received unexpected help from Saint Isabelle in another world.
“We, no, I’m sure I can help.”
So this time I said I would help her. The key is whether she can trust me and lighten the burden on my heart.
“…I’ve already been helping enough, and those words alone have helped me a lot now.”
A sense of relief spread in Cha Ji-yeon’s eyes as if the player wasn’t particularly interested as I intended, and then she regained some vitality. I was a little perplexed. Because the main story hasn’t even started yet.
“That’s why I’m greedy. Help me a little bit more.”
“Well, yes. I guarantee you, I can help you till the end…”
I couldn’t keep talking. She rushed to me and grabbed my neck.
“I’m sorry Eve, but it doesn’t matter because this is the first and last time.”
She parted her lips and smiled with her eyes fully refreshed.
