162 – Rehabilitation status (2)
“Tuto… what?”
“What are you talking about, you bastard? Fairy?”
The last car, full of stale water and sweat.
Inside, the gloomy, suffocating atmosphere was broken by a young man who came in without warning.
It has to be that way,
The young man introduced himself with the absurd word ‘fairy’ rather than an executioner or training instructor.
Perhaps because of this, there was an uproar in the hall even though he was being taken to a punishment unit and his life was fleeting.
“I’m going to search because it’s cold, but there are so many different things.”
The person who stood up was a tough-looking man with no ears.
“What are you, you bastard? Why are you shaking and falling asleep?”
The man chuckled, frowned, and trudged towards the young man. There was no one to stop him.
The knights who were preventing the prisoners from doing anything stupid looked at the situation blankly, and the prisoners kneeling on the ground also got out of the way, excited to see what would happen.
“Didn’t you hear? I’ll say it again. I’m the tutorial fairy.”
The young man, who was faced with a dispute, spoke calmly. Is this really a type of nobility? Perhaps because he is a person with blue blood, he said some very inhumane lines.
“If you understand, please take your seats without making a fuss. I have a lot to explain to you now.”
“Fairy? What the hell?”
Ha ha, the man clutching his stomach turned towards the sitting prisoners.
“Children, did you hear what this bastard said? It’s a fairy.”
“What is a fairy?”
“…refers to the devil, or a magical being living in a secret place untouched by humans.”
“Why do you know this so well? Did you at least eat some ink?”
“Makyung-nim, don’t you know that it’s all propaganda and lies? That the empire is talking sh*t about neighboring countries?”
“Shh, so in your eyes, does that bastard look like a fairy?”
“That can’t be possible. He’s a human being with nothing special.”
For a moment, a mumbling sound was heard from the floor, and then a young man dressed in black spoke with strength in his voice.
“I would have told you to sit down.”
However, he didn’t seem angry. Didn’t you hear the murmur? Maybe they are ignoring it on purpose. It means that it doesn’t matter to him what the trash says.
“… Tsk, no fun.”
When Janssen, a man who had no interest in hearing that dull response, frowned and turned his back.
“Giggle, b*tch.”
A mocking laugh was heard. Inside the dark car, wide smiling mouths were showing their yellow teeth.
“If you were going to listen carefully, why did you wake up?”
“You idiot, what’s not fun is that it’s not fun.”
“In the end, I’m pretending to be strong when I can’t do anything.”
“Wow, aren’t you embarrassed? If it were me, I would have slapped you.”
There was a series of boos that made me feel hot inside, and unlike when I returned to my original seat, no one moved out of the way to make way for me.
Jansen was embarrassed by this, but tried not to lose his composure.
“Move.”
“Get out of the way, why do you get out of the way? This is an arrogant order from a coward.”
The skinny, one-eyed man said sarcastically.
“If you don’t get out of the way, I’ll step on you.”
Jansen cooled his heated head and stretched out his feet on One-Eyed’s lap.
Kwaduk-
“Kwaaak!”
Jansen fell to the floor, clutching his ankle. And then, he shot a hateful look towards One-Eye.
“You son of a b*tch!”
“You should have looked carefully and stretched out your foot. Even though your two eyeballs are intact, you are not very careful.”
Anyone could see that it was One-Eye who had smashed Jansen’s ankle, but One-Eye was oblivious and sent a mocking look at Jansen.
The young man who introduced himself as a fairy also watched the scene until the end.
“There, one eye.”
“Yes? You mean me?”
One-Eyed pointed at me and shifted his gaze from Jansen. Siron nodded and motioned to him.
“Get out of your seat.”
“Giggle. Yay, I get it.”
One-Eye trembled and stretched out his foot forward. Just like in Jansen’s time, the prisoners created the passage. One-Eyed walked confidently, enjoying the pouring gaze.
“Why did you call me?”
“Name it.”
“Your first name is Chen and you have no last name. But why is that?”
“Because you will be subject to special management from now on.”
“…Special care subject?”
“okay.”
The young man took out a notebook and fountain pen from his arms and began to write something down.
“Now go and sit down.”
…is this the end?
One-eyed Chen felt a profound sense that nothing was happening. If it had been guards or knights, they would not have sat idly by and watched the commotion that had just occurred… The young man in front of them did not take any action.
No, action was taken.
Subject to special management.
The questionable action of Chen’s name being posted there.
“Can I ask you just one question?”
“what?”
“Well… leave alone that friend who started a fight with the fairy. Why are you designating me as the only target?”
Instead of being rude, Chen protested with sincerity. The young man shifted his gaze from Chen and stared at Jansen, who was groaning on the floor.
“It’s because I broke the ankle of a comrade who will be entrusted with my back from now on.”
“…”
“If you listened, now go and sit down. It’s been too long.”
The young man took out a pocket watch from his pocket and frowned.
Chen also frowned.
He was angry that he was treated the same as Jansen. The fact that he was placed under special management is not important to him. I thought I would get slapped on the cheek, but I never thought I would be treated like this.
“Is there anything else you want to say? Why didn’t you sit down?”
“I have a favor to ask you more than that.”
“Please? Please tell me.”
“Please slap me on the cheek.”
Chen patted my cheek and laughed. If I go back to my seat without doing anything like this, I will become a coward no different from Jansen, who grimaces while holding onto his ankles like a little girl.
However, if you resist further, you will be stopped by the knights watching the situation from behind, or you will lose your life if you do something wrong.
Since that was not what he wanted, Chen chose to imprint himself in another way.
‘Even if I die soon, I have to save face compared to the mentally ill.’
“I can’t control my strength. Just go back to your seat.”
“It’s okay. Hurry up and hit him quickly. Don’t you think we need to get the head start on those rough guys?”
Chen stretched out his senses and figured out the level of the person who called himself a fairy. Just like someone muttered a moment ago, I didn’t see anything special.
‘Power control? ‘I’m just bluffing for no reason.’
Chen heated up his Danjeon, wrapped it around himself as a self-defense device, and stared at the palm flying toward his cheek. The speed was pretty good, but Chen was able to watch the scene slowly because he was from Silea.
It was a crude attack that contained no mana, let alone power. Something like that couldn’t even inflict a single wound on Chen, who was wearing self-defense gear…
Kwasik!
Chen’s head was torn off and hit the wall. One wall of the car turned red, and the body, which had lost its senses, tilted and fell down.
“Everyone is seated, so let me start explaining.”
“…”
“I will not let you die in vain.”
The young man didn’t even pay attention to the cold corpse on the floor.
“People are pointing fingers that this unit will just be used as a meat shield to block demonic beasts, but I don’t see it that way.”
The young man who spoke powerfully approached Jansen, who did not whine even though he was clutching his ankle. Every time the young man stretched out his feet, the prisoners made a path as if the tide was ebbing, and Jansen swallowed his saliva with a stiff expression on his face.
And then a surprising phenomenon occurred.
Wow-
I thought he was going to rip off my entire ankle, but a warm light burst out from the young man’s outstretched hand.
“The merciful Lord told me to save you from ruining your life due to a moment’s mistake.”
“…”
The broken ankle was healed in the blink of an eye. It was an art that only high-ranking priests could perform, which was difficult for ordinary people to even witness.
Janssen, the person receiving treatment, looked at the scene with a bewildered expression.
However, this time there was no swearing or anything. His cloudy eyes began to clear like their original blue eyes.
“What is your name?”
“His name is Janssen.”
“How did it end up in a place like this?”
“…I killed someone.”
From noble mtl dot com
“Is that really all there is? I don’t think so.”
It was a meaningful statement, but somehow Jansen seemed to know what it meant. He felt a surge of emotion and opened his mouth trembling.
“Sir, the person who killed him was a bastard. He raped and killed my daughter who wasn’t even out of school yet.”
“Do you understand that feeling? There had to be a different way.”
As the young man expressed his regret, Jansen eventually burst into tears.
“The person who raped my daughter was a high-ranking master from the region where I lived. Not even the lord, nor even the village chief, listened to my voice!”
“It’s a shame.”
The young man took out a handkerchief and wiped Jansen’s tears.
“But that’s okay. I will take away all your sins. The Lord will allow it.”
The young man said that and stood up tall.
“Sinful karma can be covered with good karma. Even if you are destined for hell, if you do good deeds, you can go to heaven.”
[…That’s not true.]
Latera could not agree with Siron’s majestic words. The essence of the soul of the person named Jansen was relatively clean, but half of the souls in this place were incorrigible, like someone whose head had just exploded.
But what was important was not the souls of the beggars, but the soul of Siron. Latera confirmed that Siron’s sins were being reduced little by little.
“So follow my instructions carefully.”
Siron ignored Latera’s words and strengthened his voice.
“So follow my instructions, and you will survive and return to a warm home.”
“Really?”
“Can a death row inmate live?”
“Yes, I swear.”
For a moment, I felt happy at the shout coming from the corner, and then the train slowed down and a strong beat sounded.
“Then, everyone, please stand up.”
After confirming that everyone was standing up, Siron headed outside without hesitation.
A bitterly cold land filled with darkness.
Numerous lights flickered in front of me.
