EP.187 Say you want to live – 3
To the captain who asked sadly, I affirmed.
“I don’t know.”
“…irresponsible.”
“It can’t be helped. I’m not a prophet like the first saint. No one knows what the future holds, including me.”
I shrugged and answered.
“But I know one thing for sure. For those who will lose something in this incident, the captain’s actions will be more valuable than anything else. No matter how brilliant tomorrow awaits, for those who will die today, it will be just the sunlight shining on the grave.”
There was no answer. But the answer came to my heart.
In the first place, she can’t turn away. If I could have easily turned away from someone who could save me… I wouldn’t have done this.
The captain, determined, looked straight at me and said.
“Major… I will do my duty, not my duty.”
Tasks received and obligations to be performed. The captain finally decided it himself. The military dolls have been brought back to life.
The captain looked straight at the value he had created and said.
“It may be impossible. Other signalmen may have come across information I don’t know, and may have already been aware of my whereabouts. It is quite possible that my attempts will be futile.”
It might be the last decision of his life, but the captain’s words were calm. I felt the unshakable weight of a determined person, not the calmness of a businesslike tone.
“It will be difficult.”
“Positive. You have to do it nonetheless.”
The captain grabbed his hat and jumped up. There was no time to delay.
Whether the military government detects the information that the shadow has sown, or whether the captain recognizes it all first and blocks it in advance. It was a race against time.
The captain, who was about to get out of the wagon, stopped his hand right before he grabbed the doorknob. She pursed her fingers in the air a few times, then slightly clenched her fists before asking hesitantly.
“Just tell me one thing.”
‘I just received it from the beginning. From being found in a box to getting here. I have received so much help from you…. Your life has been saved and you have been given a duty. body and mind. It’s like a gift from you.’
Knowing grace is the same as animals. Rather, it can be said that a human being full of doubts does not know more about grace.
Now you know. how much i gave It’s a little late.
Is there anything more meaningful than teaching the meaning of life to someone who has never had a life of their own? I smiled heartily.
…that’s how you’ll never betray me.
just as expected. The captain asked me with his hat on his chest.
“…can I do something for you?”
good. this is it
I replied as if nothing was wrong.
“As long as you are alive.”
As long as you’re alive, you can use it somehow. If you can think and act, you will be my strong support.
I thought that the word ‘communication soldier’ was the captain and the water captain. It’s much more usable than I thought… and threatening.
In particular, if the military uses a telecommunicationsman for long-distance surveillance, I have no choice but to be caught. Even for that time, it would be convenient to give a signal soldier a big favor like Captain Ab.
military country. You guys might have been wary of things like this… but I’ll put your tools to good use.
It was around the time I was about to speak.
“okay. All right.”
“?”
What do you know all of a sudden? Gotta listen to everything you say
There are so many things you can do for me. Cutting me off if there is an investigation into me, or warning me with a golem when I’m in danger. The work of conveying all the news related to the war, etc. Got a lot to do?
‘It’s the same as what Jiknyeo said. makes a wish come true If that’s your will… I’ll give as well as you can if I can.’
“thank you. I will hurry.”
Bowing his head, the captain opened the door and walked out. Left alone in the carriage, I nodded my head in confusion.
It was then. The captain’s thoughts came through the door. As soon as the captain connected to the golem, he repeated a word in his head.
‘You won’t see me. I will always look to you Living the life given to you.’
Uh, you don’t have to look at me all the time…. You just need to watch me when I feel threatened.
A corner of the captain’s field of vision who is about to depart. In the middle of one of the windows under her influence, a scene shone. The captain, who was about to walk, stopped and was shocked to see the observed field of view.
‘Veterans of the shelter…! annihilation?!’
uh?
those people?
The largest military academy in District 12. that barracks.
The place where the veterans of the shelter had caught the bullies and cheered them up was now in a state of cataclysm due to some kind of raid.
“Heh heh heh heh heh heh. Damn it. Even if I was 10 years younger…”
Frontine, the director of the shelter, was bleeding from all over. The blood that flowed from the open wound ran obliquely along his wrinkles and dripped onto his chin.
Raising qigong from his whole body, Frontine shouted at the invisible enemy.
“Where are you! Don’t hide from the old man, come out, the shadow!”
“I didn’t hide.”
A gloomy voice sounded in Frontine’s ears. Frontine turned his head and saw a shadow walking out of the school entrance.
cried Frontine.
“Your shadow!”
“I tried not to show myself. That way, the military won’t even notice.”
A sullen, emotionless voice seeped through the gaps in the shadows. It sounded like it was whispering in my ear, or it sounded like it was coming from far away.
Veterans who are still barely standing still, as well as bullies who do not understand the situation and roll their eyes. I couldn’t figure out where the voice came from.
A strange ability that I don’t know if it’s qigong or his power.
“Has it been that long? It’s free. The place where a terrible being that I can’t bear to mention resides is a demonic realm where you can’t be careless even for a moment… Everyone has grown old and weak in a calm city. The army and the shadow.”
Wolfen said as if lamenting. Before he knew it, his new model was out to the edge of the parade ground.
In response, Frontine raised his staff above his head and charged.
“Yeah man! Fight back!”
There is no chance of winning in the long run. Even now, it has already been gnawed enough.
The leader of the shadows, Wolfen, the shadow’s ambush, was stealthy, quick, and deadly. Wolfen took down five in an instant and left leisurely. The enraged Frontine pursued him, but was ambushed and wounded.
While Frontine was on guard for a moment, Wolfen disappeared. However, the veterans, unable to find where he had gone, defended their positions without recklessly moving.
And when Wolfen showed up again, the veterans, feeling that this was their last chance, rushed in unison.
When the few remaining veterans charge forward with their respective weapons.
Wolfen’s new form disappeared, leaving only his voice instead.
“The fight is already over and your defeat has been decided. You just don’t know yet.”
hooked As he approached, the one-armed veteran was hit by an invisible blade, severely slashing his left shoulder. He opened his eyes without having time to control the pain.
“Bantan Qigong…! I wrote it!”
“Don’t swear.”
A voice was heard in my ear. The one-armed soldier aimed at the direction of the sound with his iron flail, but the flail, which had the power to break even concrete, cut through the air in vain.
Poo-wook. And again the sound of life escaping. The blade cut through his chest.
Blood flowing from a severely cut chest. When a one-armed soldier is about to fall slowly. His eyes lit up and he reached out and grabbed Wolfen’s clothes.
With a right arm that sprouted from a severed shoulder blade that couldn’t exist.
“A qigongsu?”
Wolfen reacted. No matter how much he did, he would not be able to shake off the hand that held him in qigong.
For a moment, Frontine approached him after tying up the shadow.
“Got it! Noooooum!”
Natural flowers bloomed in his wrinkled eyes. I cherished and cherished it because of my lack of stamina, but this is my last chance.
The wand full of qigong vibrates. Flashes of light flashed even in the dark. Frontine’s staff fell like lightning.
The cane with the storm on its back is a fatal blow just by brushing against it. If Wolfen dodges, the energy will explode.
A blow that grabs an assassin and inflicts it on top of him.
“…Black Hole.”
However, the darkness that seeped from Wolfen’s body permeated between the flashes. The thunderbolt is swallowed up in the darkness for an instant. Oddly enough, Wolfen, who inserted the Qigong, spilled the falling Frontine’s staff with a dagger.
The staff deflects in a gentle arc. Frontine’s face was filled with despair, and at that moment, the blade of the shadow mercilessly dug through the old man’s body.
How much blood was in the skinny body. Blood gushed from the old man’s chest.
“Keah… Goddamn…”
The old man groaned as he held on to his fading breath.
Wolfen Fenstein is an assassin. Because it specializes in delivering prepared blows, it is weak in head-to-head combat…
“…That’s what I thought. Is it a defeat….”
“The reason Bourne didn’t fight head-on was just because it was efficient.”
Wolfen muttered with emotionless eyes. Frontine coughed up blood.
“I know. Oh my goodness… that there are many more… far better than me…”
And maybe even among the children he raised. Beyond maturity, a child who can be compared to growth may appear.
Just like Musketeer, the youngest musketeer who was recently recognized as a succulent.
Children have endless possibilities. It is the adult’s job to smoke before the possibility is over.
That’s why Frontine left his last words before he died.
“We… didn’t say a word about who you were… Those kids don’t know who you are…”
All the veterans he called were dead. Even though they had already retired, they were still soldiers, and they stood in front of Wolfen, ready to die.
I was defeated, but still. Just in case you had insurance.
“There is no need to… kill everyone…”
Saying that killing everyone isn’t your goal, Frontine covered the child until the end.
Wolfen responded with emotionless eyes to the dying old man who appealed.
“If so.”
Wolfen’s purpose was to spread the taboo anyway, so he wouldn’t kill him.
I don’t know how the army that caught the taboo will come out against them, but there was no reason for Wolfen to explain even that.
It’s Wolfen’s heart anyway.
After listening to Wolfen’s words, Frontine closed his eyes in relief. His last sleep was longer than his life.
The old man is dead. Of course, Wolfen did not feel much inspiration from him. I just looked at my next goal with deeply sunken eyes.
Next is the market. Wolfen’s new model disappeared into the dark street as if it were melting…
In the eyes of Wolfen, who was heading to the market like that. I saw a carriage drawn by two horses.
