13 – Realize only when you lose something precious
The time when Kang Eun-chan’s body was first discovered, just before the news of the hero’s death became known in the news.
Heo Na-yun hugged the fallen corpse and shouted.
“Please! Please open your eyes!”
“Ouch…”
However, there was only blood flowing from the body of the hero, Eun-chan Kang, who had not yet had any warmth left.
“Brave, hero, please….”
She cried endlessly. Former veterans party members Han Min-seo, Choi Da-hee, and Lee Ye-seul, who followed, also discovered it.
“This… what is this?…”
The party members who followed rubbed their eyes several times as if in disbelief and looked at it again.
“Is that… a lie?”
–
-Changrang
Han Min-seo dropped the sword she was holding and muttered.
“I can’t… Really dead?… Why the hell?…”
At that time, Min-seo Han found a strange piece of paper in Kang Eun-chan’s arms.
“Get out of the way.”
Han Min-seo took out the paper as if possessed by something.
There was written the word ‘will’. Han Min-seo opened it with trembling hands.
– To everyone. I have a lot of resentment and resentment, I can’t get anything in my hands, and everything just feels empty. I trusted you, and no one believed in me. So I decided. To die, goodbye and you guys are fine I hope you are happy. At one point I really thought of you as my comrades.
The suicide note that Kang Eun-chan scribbled out in order to deceive the goddess Abelida.
Han Min-seo, unaware of that fact, saw it and shook hands.
“Maybe… was it really framed?”
“That… can’t it be?… Goddess representative gave a testimonial?…”
Han Min-seo denied reality by shaking her head as if someone had hit her on the head.
“Who… there’s no reason to die if you’re not framed?… You even write a will like this?”
–
She kept trying to deny it. The warrior Kang Eun-chan is drinking holy water to be paid in her slum, but she is addicted and embezzled, and she is a heinous criminal who tried to kill the goddess. She thought so. No, she had to think so. If she doesn’t think like that, she cares so much about herself, and even while under her curse, she will stab the hero who sealed the Demon King for them with a sword.
Han Min-seo looked at her hand.
“My…I stabbed Kang Eun-chan with her two hands….”
Minseo Han recalled his memories of that time, shaking his whole body. Kang Eun-chan crying for trust.
-Han Minseo… Why me?…
Even when she was stabbed with a sword, those eyes that looked at her with despairing eyes as if she could not understand were deeply embedded in her chest.
“My… because I didn’t believe it…”
Choi Da-hee and Lee Ye-seul, who were next to them, also confirmed the will. So was their reaction. Each of them read the sentence they had read with a bewildered expression, read it again, read it again, and read it again and again.
Choi Dahee cried and cried.
“Hero… I’m sorry… I’m sorry I couldn’t trust you. please. please. Open your eyes, please.”
Lee Ye-seul also held the hand of the fallen warrior and cried.
“Kang Eun-chan. open your eyes please….”
Not long after, the paramedics arrived.
They quickly took out various artifacts and checked the body.
The man who looked like the captain of the paramedics shook his head and spoke to the team members.
“It has been quite some time since he died. Contact the investigative agency to investigate the cause of death.”
Heo Na-yoon grabbed the man who was briefing and shouted.
“Please check again. This is a warrior. There’s no way you can die from a wound like this. Please… Please check again. Please check if you’re still alive…”
The man just shook his head. The corpse of the person the girl calls a hero had all its major organs ruptured, from the heart, to a hollow hole. In fact, he was in a state where anyone could tell he was dead without checking.
“There is no life reaction at all. No matter how many times I try, I get the same result. I’m sorry that I can only say this.”
After a while, the investigative agency of the Credit Bureau, which received the report, was also dispatched.
“Is this this way?”
TCGN, the investigation agency of the Abelida Goddess Bureau, took over the scene as soon as it arrived.
TCGN’s team leader Gu Seon told his subordinates.
“Preserve everything that can serve as evidence.”
At that time, a woman came into her eyes.
“Can I check what you are reading right now?”
Goo Seon-jeong, who was handed the will, ordered with serious eyes.
“Please contact the Goddess as soon as possible. It is an emergency.”
***
The recovery of the warrior’s corpse proceeded quickly. TCGN, which had been bought by the goddess, concluded that the will was a forged fake, and this information was concealed from the public. And although the cause of death is an apparent suicide, she hid it and defined it as unknown.
– Breaking news. The body of Kang Eun-chan, a warrior who was criticized by many for poisoning holy water and attempting to assassinate the goddess, was just discovered. The cause of death has not yet been properly revealed, and the specific circumstances are under further investigation…
Heo Na-yun stared blankly at the news streaming from the house. Everywhere he was, he was talking about the death of Kang Eun-chan, a former warrior.
‘If I believed…’
TCGN said that the will was fake. But she was hard to believe. What was written there was the clear handwriting and tone of the hero. There was no fake.
‘Did the goddess’s representative give false testimony?’
‘But why? Why the hell?’
Heo Na-yun looked at the wall blankly and muttered.
‘I don’t know where it went wrong…’
Heo Na-yun was concerned about the words the warrior cried out.
– No! I have never personally used holy water. He sealed the demon king and was only cursed. Because of that curse, it has become a body that has to periodically consume huge amounts of holy water!
‘If it was really cursed while sealing the Demon King… So, if you endured tremendous pain and drank holy water to prolong your life… If you sacrificed one body by fire for everyone… ..’
She began to deny reality. But she was aware of it herself. If the hero wasn’t innocent, he wouldn’t have died.
‘Because I was miserable…’
Eunchan Kang passed away. Leaving only one will. What it meant was clear. He is so sad that he will die. Can you trust me only by doing this? it will be expressed
‘If I had… if I had called a little sooner…’
Seeing the huge amount of holy water that enters the house every day, Na-yoon Heo had no choice but to doubt Kang Eun-chan for a while. Because the hero always looked bright without any pain. It was impossible to even imagine that he had used holy water because of the curse.
‘The curse of the Demon King… I was told that it would definitely burn my flesh and cause pain as if my whole body was torn…’
Few people have actually been subjected to the curse of the Demon King, so we do not know the exact details, but according to past records, if you do not drink holy water periodically after being cursed, your flesh will rot and you will suffer from severe pain even if you drink holy water. it was written
‘How painful it must have been…’
With tears in his eyes, he dropped the glass he was holding in his hand.
– clang
The spilled water and the broken glass felt like the death of a warrior. Mistakes are simple, but once broken, it is a cruel situation that cannot be undone.
From noble mtl dot com.
She fell down and tried to give her a piece of glass. At that moment, the warrior Kang Eun-chan appeared in front of her.
“Heo Na-yun. It’s dangerous. Do I have to be careful when handling glass shards? If you cut your hand, what do you do all the time?”
“Yo… Hero?”
Heo Na-yun always liked tea. When he went to the hero’s house to play, or when he went to sleep outdoors while subjugating monsters, Yoon always used to drink tea. However, due to his bubbly personality, he often broke the glass.
Every time, Na-yoon Heo tried to remove the glass fragments in a hurry for fear of being scolded by other people, and at such moments, a hero always came and gave her a scold.
“I always say that. it’s okay to make a mistake Don’t be shy by looking at people for nothing. What are you going to do if you get hurt while picking it up quickly?”
While fighting, the hero always picked up the glass with his bare hands.
“Yo… the hero is bare-handed…”
“I’m fine because I have a strong body, right? I picked it up, so don’t look at it and drink the tea you were about to drink again.”
“Thank you… I’m…”
Heo Na-yun momentarily mistaken the hero created by her imagination as real.
But, after a while, she realized that the hero she saw now was only her imagination.
This is because the pieces of glass that the hero thought he had just picked up were lying on the ground.
-fit
Blood was dripping from Heo Na-yoon’s feet. But he didn’t care.
“Yo… Hero, those feet are bleeding…”
Heo Na-yoon muttered habitually, but the hero who cared for her every time was no longer by her side.
‘Just one more time… Please, if I could meet the hero again…’
She did it that way.
