“I guess I’ll have to assume the worst and move on.”
I was panicking, but Baek Geon-oh spoke calmly.
“Are you listening? Wake.”
─ Yes… yes!?
“If that thing is a single creature, we have to close the cracks so it can’t come out. “Like a net.”
─ Ah… Ah yes. I guess so. All right! I will deliver it right away.
“We’ll do what we do, so leave Yoon Jeong-eun and Oh Min-gyu in that direction.”
─ Yes, I understand.
The call has ended. When I saw Baek Geon-oh’s calm appearance, I also became calm.
“You are calm.”
“I’ve been through a lot of situations like this.”
“because of me?”
Baek Geon-oh frowned as if wondering what he was saying. He doesn’t reply, as if he can’t bear to say no, and just looks outside in silence. Anyway, it was unbelievable for me not to say empty words.
As I was in the middle of closing the crack, not long after, the phone rang again.
─ It is said that the crack in the middle does not close well. We decided to scrap this operation and rejoin the deployed personnel.
“This is the worst.”
The cracks were widening faster and faster. Now the crack has widened enough that you can look inside it at a glance. Movement inside the crack was clearly visible in the distance.
It was hard to deny it anymore. That those are the eyes of a creature. Rather than escaping reality with false hopes, it was better to admit it and make a resolution.
You must never let that escape.
It was a time when I was completely focused on closing the rift in silence.
Suddenly something hit the helicopter hard.
The impact was so big that the entire helicopter shook. I used the skill. The helicopter, which had been crushed by telekinesis, was launched into the distance.
bang!
An explosion was heard overhead. It was an explosion. If we had been a little late, not only would we have been injured, but the helicopter driver would have lost his life.
The helicopter driver sitting in the front seat had already lost consciousness when the impact occurred. I used my telekinesis to lift the helicopter that had lost its balance and landed on the roof of a nearby building.
And I checked below, where there had been a lot of noise a while ago.
On the streets, people who had escaped from shelters were running away. Apparently, news of the crack had leaked out to the shelter. It must have been difficult to wait quietly as a huge crack appeared above my head. Everyone was scattering in confusion, probably surprised by the loud noise that had been heard a while ago.
“It’s not good.”
Baek Geon-oh, who reported the current situation to the Hunter Management Bureau, came next to me.
“Let’s go first.”
People were on my mind, but it was clear what needed to be done first. I floated Baek Geon-oh and my body in the air. As I held the magic stone, Baek Geon-oh looked at me with worried eyes.
“Can you do it at the same time?”
“of course.”
I answered Baek Geon-oh’s worried question and immediately used the magic stone. If I had no memory, it might have been a little confusing to use skills and magic stones together… I had previous experience, so there was no way I couldn’t do this much. I know everything, but anyway, I have a lot of unnecessary worries.
What I was worried about was the other side. Everywhere I turned, I saw people evacuating. The situation on the ground was chaos itself. It was dangerous as if a big accident would happen if we were not careful.
In order to fundamentally resolve the situation, this rift must eventually be closed… … .
“… … What is this?”
As we continued to move and close the crack, a place where the crack had expanded suddenly appeared, as if a gap had been opened. The crack is now about 1 meter wide, but it has expanded to more than 5 meters.
Baek Geon-oh, who was looking at the crack and the surrounding area, clicked his tongue.
“I guess there are more people left who have that magic stone.”
“what? really?”
“okay. There are only clothes left underneath. “Don’t look.”
Baek Geon-oh stopped me when I unconsciously tried to lower my head. He didn’t think it would be a good idea to check, so he just aimed at the crack and used the magic stone towards the open space.
Why on earth do you want something like destruction? The same goes for ‘Seo Hee-won’ in the past. As of now, I couldn’t understand it at all. And it was right not to understand. Thanks to this, my characteristics are being deleted.
I calmed down and focused once again.
As time went on, the power of the magic stone needed to close the crack increased. This was because more cracks had opened up, including small disturbances here and there.
There was one more piece of bad news.
“It doesn’t close from the middle?”
─ Yes. I think the right answer was to close the edges first.
The management bureau reported the sad news. In the first place, I was planning to stop that huge thing from coming out, but that became impossible.
─ So I’m on my way to join now. Hunter Oh Min-gyu will arrive there soon.
Baek Geon-oh clicked his tongue at those words. This may be a natural reaction since he is not on good terms with Oh Min-gyu. I don’t really like Oh Min-gyu either, but… What can I do? We need Oh Min-gyu right now.
─ Still, we secured additional magic stones. We are also planning to find people among A-class hunters who are suitable to use magic stones and join us in closing the rift. There are five people to be added, and three people will go there for now. Additional personnel will be added as soon as the inspection is completed.
“By any chance, wasn’t that helicopter attacked?”
─ Attack… received. You are currently on foot, and a hunter capable of flight is on the way to assist you.
“under… … .”
As expected, that side was also attacked. If you were moving on your own two feet, there was a limit no matter how fast you were. Because there are more obstacles than flying.
Still, I was glad to hear some hopeful news. If you keep speeding up like this, you will be able to do it in the nick of time.
Then suddenly an explosion sounded from afar. It was an artificial explosion, just like the one that hit our helicopter.
“Manipulative work… … .”
Baek Geon-oh muttered irritably.
The rift continued to close. I tried to close it as quickly as possible… Even if magical power was poured into it, there was a limit to the amount of magical power that the magic stone could convert, so the speed did not exceed a certain level.
While I was concentrating, something came flying at me. The person who flew was none other than a person. A person whose eyes are half-glazed and not in a normal state.
The opponent who flew in front of me began to fall down. In a flash, I grabbed the person with my skills to prevent him from falling.
“Hello, our God.”
The other person said that with a grin. They look different, but looking at that way of talking… It was definitely Jaehee Lee.
Jaehee Lee had the ability to control other people’s bodies. It felt that way even to me, who had no memory of it.
In times like this, Jaehee Lee used anyone she could see around her. So he couldn’t mess with it. The person in front of you is a victim whose body was stolen by Lee Jae-hee.
I suppressed my anger.
“Because I am not God.”
“I trust you, God.”
It was purely arbitrary. He is a very clingy guy. Jaehee Lee giggled and spread her arms, looking at her crack.
“All of this was completed thanks to God.”
“Do not be ridiculous.”
“Oh my, it’s true. It is said to be a study completed by collecting and recollecting Nayoung’s memories from precognition. So, we can say that it was God’s will.”
“… … .”
Instead of responding, I looked around. Jaehee Lee probably isn’t that far away. This skill cannot be used if you are far away from Jaehee Lee.
Jaehee Lee stared at me, probably guessing the meaning of my actions.
“Do you want to meet me in person?”
“huh. So come out.”
“If God gives an order, I must obey it, but… “It seems difficult now.”
He spoke gently as if he would listen, but the conclusion was arbitrary. Anyway, this guy is going uphill.
It was a time when I was wondering what to do with this person.
“If you don’t stop, I’ll explode everything.”
bang!
Immediately after Lee Jae-hee’s words, an explosion rang out from afar. A thick cloud of black smoke rises. Jaehee Lee whispered with satisfaction.
“You saw it, right?”
“you… … .”
“Ignore it. “The crack is more urgent.”
Baek Geon-oh urged. I knew that Baek Geon-oh was right, but I felt uncomfortable, as if I had swallowed a thorn in my stomach. Jaehee Lee whispered to me.
“Does it matter whether these millions of people die or not to close the rift?”
“… … .”
“If you want to kill me, just leave.”
“stop!”
When I shouted loudly, Jaehee Lee stumbled.
“haha… It’s nice that you call me that. Well, if it weren’t for Baek Geon-oh, we could have become a little closer… … .”
“Do not be ridiculous.”
bang!
As if to silence my words, another explosion rang out.
“Stop right now.”
─ There’s no need to stop, Heewon.
Suddenly I heard the man’s voice. I turned my head towards the sound. Baek Geon-oh was holding a phone in one hand.
What, since when were you talking on the phone? I think I’ve heard everything about the situation so far… It was confusing. I couldn’t believe what he said or his trustworthy voice.
─ Hurry up and go. I will catch that criminal.
“mister… … .”
─No need to worry anymore. Because it’s okay, right?
“Bluff… evil!”
Jaehee Lee briefly screamed. Then, the body of the person she was connected to Jaehee Lee went limp. It seems like the main body received a big shock and the connection was forcibly disconnected… … .
“Uh, how did you find it?”
─You can’t just sit there and suffer. Don’t worry too much… Just go.
“… … .”
─ Heewon, because you can do it.
It was the voice of a man I knew. I felt like I was going to burst into tears.
“all right!”
I answered hastily and winked at Baek Geon-oh. Baek Geon-oh, who ended the call, looked at me and clicked his tongue.
“crybaby.”
“That’s not what you want to say… … .”
“Wipe away your tears quickly. “People will join us soon.”
“I will take care of it.”
“I don’t want people to see your crying face, so come on.”
“What does it matter to you?”
Baek Geon-oh glared at me. Either glare. What are you going to do… … .
