Episode 137:
12 o’clock at night.
moonlit night.
Shin Yoo-seong was sitting on a chair and looking through the glass at the black and distant night sea.
Shoot Aaaaa!
The sound of rain pouring down from the sky as if the entire island would be submerged.
slam!
The sound of waves crashing against something.
The loud clamor created by rainwater pouring, moving, and swaying reminded Shin Yoo-seong of old memories.
‘…So much has changed.’
But that wasn’t necessarily bad.
The present Shin Yoo-seong was not obsessed with memories of the past.
The fact that he was able to leave the Shin-O family was rather an opportunity.
And it was true.
Rather, Shin Yoo-seong was able to meet very good relationships because he was abandoned by the Shin-O family, which advocated for skill-first.
Yoo Won-hak, the teacher who raised himself after being abandoned. My colleagues who were able to be together because Shin Yoo-seong grew up straight.
“…Ah Yoosung.”
After opening the door, Sumire saw Shin Yuseong and whispered softly.
“…I thought you were sleeping.”
Saying that, Sumire sat across from Yuseong Shin and smiled. Let’s laugh together with Shin Yoosung. Sumire looked out the window together and opened her mouth.
“It rains a lot.”
“Good thing. They say they won’t come down during tomorrow’s attack.”
Even though his expression looks heavier than usual, Shin Yoo-seong talks about the strategy. Sumire smiled bitterly.
‘As expected, Mr. Yooseong…’
He always tried to be a strength to them, but Shin Yooseong did not show his worries to Sumire and his colleagues.
However, Sumire wanted to know a little more about Shin Yuseong. A rainy day like now. It was even more so when I was silently looking at the rainy scenery.
I wanted to share what Yuseong Shin thinks and what worries he has.
Just being together is comforting. Because I learned from Shin Yoo-seong that I can be a source of strength.
‘It was Yooseong who taught me that…’
Sumire felt that the current situation where she couldn’t be Shin Yooseong’s strength was unfair.
However, it is too greedy for the current self. Sumire thought so and pressed her heart.
“…Yoosung.”
Sumire calls Shin Yuseong as if possessed.
“Why Sumire?”
Shin Yoo-seong, who was looking at the window, turned his gaze to Sumire. Sumire’s heart was beating like crazy without realizing it.
“yes? oh no It’s just…”
Eventually, Sumire stuttered and smiled lightly as usual.
“Ha I always wanted to say thank you…”
Sumire wanted to get closer and share a deeper story, but eventually buried her inner feelings.
“That goes for me too.”
However, seeing Shin Yuseong smiling at him, Sumire thought.
‘Right now… this is enough.’
* * *
Sunlight coming through the cracks in the slightly open door. Kim Eun-ah woke up, touching her disheveled hair.
“Hamm….”
Kim Eun-ah trudged out into the living room with a stretchy yawn.
The dorm was very quiet with no crowds.
“…Guys?”
Kim Eun-ah rubbed her eyes and checked the room, but neither Shin Yoo-seong nor Sumire were in the dorm.
The only thing left in the dorm was omurice, wrapped in plastic wrap, on the table.
[Please enjoy breakfast!]
[Leaving Sumire, who loves Eun-ah more than anyone else♥]
“Where are you both going… Take me with you.”
Although she grumbled a bit, Kim Eun-ah ate the omurice that Sumire had left behind.
* * *
Talk tok!
Sumire tapped her cheek nervously and confirmed the information in her pocket.
[Boss name: Racule of the Black Cloak]
[※ Note: The attribute is very strong, so check in advance and be careful! You may be greatly affected… (｡•́︿•̀｡)ㅠ]
[Attribute: Blessing of the Abandoned Princess]
[Effect: Applies buffs and debuffs to Racule alternately for 24 hours. During the buff, mana and physical abilities are doubled. During the debuff, 50% combat power is quadrupled! (๑•̀ㅁ•́๑)/]
The only undead dungeon in Ogaedo.
Racule the Black Mantle, the boss of the ruined castle. Sumire’s challenge this time was also the first time she defeated a level 5 boss, excluding the joint raid with Japan.
Even Sumire alone challenges Racule for training.
Shin Yoo-seong was watching Sumire’s challenge without participating in the battle.
“If you want the attack to be difficult. I’ll get you into the fight right away.”
Sumire nodded at Shin Yoosung’s story.
“yes! Leave it to me!”
Even with a level 5 boss as her opponent, Sumire was not afraid. Rather, he was encouraging himself that he could win.
‘Racule received a debuff and this is an undead dungeon. Circumstances are… in my favour. I can definitely do it.’
Thinking so, Sumire looked at Shin Yoo-seong’s face and opened the door vigorously.
Kiki profit!!
A creepy sound spreads as the huge rusty door opens.
The black knight, Racule, was kneeling in front of the ruined throne.
“Who is it… who wakes me up?”
A knight of misfortune who becomes undead and roams the castle forever in place of the princess he could not protect.
5th grade boss.
With the appearance of Racule, Sumire’s whole body tingled with the murderous blood that spewed out.
However, Sumire’s eyes staring at Racule were strained, and she slowly raised her hand to the hairpin.
At the same time, the world stopped.
Sumire’s vision was enveloped in black clouds. Let the clouds clear in front of your eyes, where nothing can be seen.
– It’s been a while.
The landscape of the ruined old castle had turned into Laplace’s castle.
– …The opponent is a level 5 boss. You seem to have grown up quite a bit too.
Laplace smiled enchantingly when he appeared.
“yes? Oh no! All… thanks to the power that Laplace-sama lent me.”
Sumire hurriedly shook her hand at Laplace’s praise and trembled in humility.
– Whoa, kid. Something that matches my wavelength. it’s your talent Isn’t it your luck that you met me?
Laplace looked down at Sumire and smiled happily. But even for a moment, Laplace sighed lightly.
– And you must suffer as much as I do. How can you put someone in your heart that is so insensitive? How could they even resemble that part…
Sumire belatedly realized who Laplace was referring to.
“yes!? Oh no! Something like me… It’s not like that! I’m just! I really want to be that… strength!”
Laplace covered his mouth and smiled strangely at Sumire’s denial, which even blushed.
– okay? Huh, let’s do something like that. It’s a story that has nothing to do with me anyway.
Laplace easily placed Sumire on his throne.
– It’s a long-awaited meeting. Let’s end the story here. Then my child… Unleash my power to the fullest.
* * *
Gooooh –
An ominous black aura that covers the castle. Sumire engulfed the surroundings with unknown mana.
A black aura slowly dissipating.
Then, the figure of Sumire sitting on the throne was slowly revealed.
“Mortal! I will honor the princess with your… death!”
Racule raised his sword and shouted, but Sumire just laughed seductively.
Saaa—
Sumire looked down at Racule with her legs crossed. Sumire unlocked her power through Laplace’s Throne. The undead knelt at the appearance of the true queen and greeted Sumire.
“…worship our master.”
Lilith shuddered at the power of Laplace, who had seen it so long ago.
“For my master… win the war.”
The Death Knight, who had been corrupted early and forgot about chivalry, also knelt down and greeted Sumire.
Swoop- Jerk-jeok-jeok.
Sumire gets up from the throne and slowly walks down. From the ground, ghouls crawled out and groaned, and skeletons crackled with their jawbones.
The Queen’s parade that everyone is delighted with.
However, the Queen’s orders were short and concise.
“All- Gun Attack!”
Sumire raised her index finger and pointed at Racule. Then, the large undead army that had been waiting for the command rushed towards Racule like a wave.
