Chapter 639: Don’t Lose (1)

I was in doubt about whether it was an exploitation operation force, so what else did I need to say? It was such good timing that I would believe it if she said she worked in something related to that.

Although I was grateful for the note, it also felt resentful.

‘Hyejin… Hyejin, why are you down? You’re not sick, right? You didn’t run recklessly, ruining your health and ultimately resulting in you fainting, right? Did you fall in the Black Swan’s territory? Is that why you three are together?’

For Cho Hyejin, who ran so much her body was left in tatters, I had mixed feelings of gratitude and concern, but I had no choice but to throw that feeling far away for the time being.

I thought the first thing I had to do was to figure out exactly how things were going.

Although the situation was roughly summarized on the note left by Lee Jihye, many parts were omitted. One of the things I could confirm was that she directly reported to Kim Hyunsung.

Indeed, if Lee Jihye directly reported to Kim Hyunsung, the picture I was drawing in my head would be clear.

Cho Hyejin had handed over her baton to Lee Jihye, and Lee Jihye directly conveyed the situation to Kim Hyunsung.

It was also her choice that she decided to minimize confusion. I wanted to applaud her good judgment but couldn’t hide the bitterness that came up inside.

Because of her inner peace brought by having let go of the stock already, and the image of her enjoying serenity kept coming into my eyes.

-Her hands are lumpy.

-How much training would she have done? She’s Cho Hyejin. She’s famous as a training fanatic.

-Hmm, I have nothing to do. Should I do her nails?

-Can we do that?

-She’s sleeping anyway. You said she wouldn’t wake up for a while. It would be better to paint it blue.

I was jealous of how different they were acting from me, who was filled with anxiety.

Even at that moment, I wanted to sell the stock quickly and gain peace, but since I had put in capital into it than Lee Jihye, I couldn’t easily get out.

Cho Hyejin, who was being taken care of while fainted, made me envious.

I knew that Lee Jihye did her best, but the anxiety that came out of my mind was a completely different story.

Once again, I turned my gaze to Kim Hyunsung, but nothing changed.

He was still biting his lip tightly and continuing the frantic run. He couldn’t even distinguish between monsters and trees anymore.

‘Ah, this is fucked up. This is really fucked up.’

I was naturally worried about the slaughter party that would unfold in the Queen’s grave a few hours later.

Who I was currently observing wasn’t Kim Hyunsung of the 2nd round. It should be judged that it was Kim Hyunsung from the first round that was filled with malice.

I felt that the Holy Sword party had awakened the man’s evil spirits.

‘I guess he will come right away.’

I didn’t think he’d wait a week later or something. It was obvious that he would come straight to the dungeon.

As if they knew that the death reaper was coming, the Holy Sword party was in full swing.

‘How many hours are left? How much time does he need to reach me?’

I couldn’t accurately calculate it, but it would’ve been left less than three hours. Unconditionally, within 3 hours, Kim Hyunsung would enter the Queen’s grave.

No, maybe he could show up in an hour.

I bit my lips unknowingly. I thought I had time to spare, but Hyunsung would soon arrive much faster than expected. The problem was that I still didn’t have any option.

For me, who hadn’t cast “I loved you, Raphael,” yet, the other options were meaningless.

‘I have to persuade them.’

I had to do it immediately. However, my body didn’t move at will. The moment I hurried up, judging that I had no more time to think, my head swirled, and my body lost balance and collapsed.

‘What. What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with me, fuck.’

“Ah… fuck.”

Of course, I got suspicious of something. That was probably a side effect of using Elune’s telescope for too long.

A headache came in for a moment, and while I grabbed my head tightly, the door opened with a banging sound.

“Hyung! Hyung!!”

Raphael, startled, put my body on the bed again, but that didn’t mean my headache stopped.

I wished I was pretending that I was in pain, but it really hurt. It was a short moment, but I really felt like my head was breaking.

The continuous tingling pain stroked my frontal lobe. I wanted to say that it really hurt and ask him to save me, but even my voice didn’t come out properly.

“Sigh, sigh…”

“Are you okay? Are…”

‘No, I’m not okay. I feel like I’m going to die from the pain. This headache hurts way too much. I’m really sick, fuck.’

The pain was enough for me to consider the possibility that Elune had put a curse on it.

As there was a high possibility that Kim Hyunsung would soon arrive, I thought it was urgent to tell him what the situation was outside, and when I tried to open my mouth, my voice didn’t come out at my will.

“Run… away.”

‘Run, you bastard. Kim Hyunsung is coming. First, fuck, you have to save your life. I can only fix it later if you live. You have to live.’

“What? What are you… What are you talking about?”

“Run away. Go… you have to leave…”

‘Get out of here! Listen to what I’m saying. You have to heed my instructions unconditionally right now.’

“Hyung…? Hyung? Can you see me? Do you recognize who I am?”

“Kim Hyunsung… is coming…”

“Hyung?”

“Just… leave me… and… run…”

‘I’ll calm Hyunsung down. So just, fuck, run away. Fuck, you don’t have time. You don’t have time.’

I wanted the bastard to understand me.

I thought it might’ve sounded a little different, but I completely conveyed what I wanted to say.

‘Kim Hyunsung is coming, so run away.’

“You will d…”

‘You will die. You’re definitely dying.’

“Bastar…”

‘What?’

“Kim Hyunsung, that bastard… bastard!”

“What…?”

The way he hit the ground with a burst of anger was spectacular. I wasn’t completely certain, but I felt like I could tell what he was thinking.

‘No. I wasn’t brainwashed. It’s not like I’m fighting with my second personality right now.’

There seemed to be no answer in any way when I saw his thick tears dripping while biting his lips tightly. Arguably, that bastard was on the verge of crossing a river that he couldn’t return from.

‘Hey, please don’t cross that river.’

“You will be comfortable soon. The motherfucker who is making your head hurt… I will protect you from him.”

“Don’t…”

‘Don’t protect me, don’t protect me, fuck.’

As I watched his back after he turned and wiped his tears with one hand, he looked more like a fire moth sprinting into the fire rather than looking cool.

I wanted to shout not to go, but my voice didn’t come out. I pathetically reached out my hand, but Raphael wasn’t looking at me.

To anyone, he looked like a soldier on the verge of going out to the battlefield.

‘Ah, my head hurts, fuck. The son of a bitch, where do you think you’re going when I’m in this much pain? Don’t go. Don’t cross the river where you can’t return.’

However, after looking back once, he closed the big door firmly.

Hearing a clank, it seemed he had locked the door from the outside as well.

As I looked around while trying to grasp for breath, I saw something Raphael had dropped. It was the Goddess’s Hand Mirror.

I grabbed my pounding head and lifted it, but it provided too little information.

I even thought it would be good to leave the room by going into my Doom Kiyoung form, but I didn’t know when Kim Hyunsung would barge in.

‘Gosh, fuck. This situation is really troublesome. Should I just say, ‘I loved you, Raphael,’?’

I regretted introducing the first round’s heroes to each other.

I triggered my Mind’s Eyes to look at the outside situation, but the only thing I could see was the Holy Sword party gathering together and preparing for the incoming threat.

The hound Lee Joohyuk was quietly gearing up for battle. The party members, including Marien, the Miracle Priest, and the live burial duo, who were sneaking jokes, had the same face as Raphael.

Perhaps Kim Hyunsung could choose to let them live.

I didn’t know about Raphael, but he might think that the first-timeline heroes would be wasted if they were to die so early.

No, before thinking it was a waste, didn’t all those characters have contact with Kim Hyunsung?

They weren’t close to him like I was, but they were definitely Kim Hyunsung’s colleagues.

‘I should save at least those guys. Raphael is already out of my reach, but I can still save the rest.’

Looking back at Kim Hyunsung, he was already running inside the dungeon.

‘Come on, bastard… Why did you come so quickly? Why are you already entering the dungeon?’

I was worried about his physical strength as he ran nonstop without thinking about anything else, but he didn’t seem to be out of breath. Although I was anxious about his expression, that showed no other emotions other than the murderous aura…

I had to trust him, who said that the hound Lee Juhyuk was a good guy with a smile.

There was no way Kim Hyunsung would abandon his previous colleagues from the first timeline.

As if they noticed that Kim Hyunsung broke into the dungeon, the Holy Swordparty was also on the way to the stage.

-We can win. We will be able to win.

-After work, let’s have a drink.

-Oh, I have a prior engagement…

-…

-I’m thinking of proposing to my girlfriend right away after going back.

‘What do you mean, proposal… Don’t put up death flags, fuck.’

-I’m sorry, everyone.

-You don’t have to be sorry. We all agreed to this. I don’t think the odds are low.

-Um, if I die… tell my friends…

‘Don’t even say that. What’s up with you guys… You can’t keep saying that.’

-Obviously, nothing will happen.

‘Something always happens to those that say those words. Just don’t say anything. Just stay still.’

As if they knew they were flagging death, even the way they were walking and spitting out typical lines seemed somewhat anxious.

-He’s coming soon. Get ready for battle.

A small sound resonated. Kim Hyunsung bit his lips tightly and began to fill his feet with magic.

They came as far as they could see each other.

Amid tensions, Kim Hyunsung was staring at the hound Lee Joo-hyuk at the forefront.

‘He’s thinking of killing… I think he’s thinking of killing them. I really think he’s thinking of committing a massacre here…’

I realized that our lovely regressor would kill all the guys in front of him in no time at all.

Unknowingly, I lifted the hand mirror and began to speak.

“Lee Joo-hyuk should be a bait. Watch out, Marien. Be careful, fuck! Keep your head down! Head down. Head down!”

‘I told you he would aim at the priests first, bastards.’

Marien’s head bowed reflexively as if my voice reached her.
