#61
When Sehyun opened her eyes, she realized that she was on the bed. He clearly remembers collapsing on the desk while browsing the book records in the room, but what happened after that was completely forgotten.
What I could see through the bright sunlight was the same scene as yesterday. The warm air flowing through the window reached the side of the bed.
When I looked down, cleanly changed clothes came into view.
Sehyun stared at it quietly for a long time. Wing feathers neatly matched with clothes different from yesterday. There’s even a faint, pleasant scent.
I could tell who did it without having to look back. The last thing he saw was Ruhak, so he didn’t even suspect anything.
“Ugh… .”
One of my wings must have been pressed while I was sleeping, and when I woke up, I felt a tingling sensation. Sehyun pulled her wings and massaged them as if massaging them, got out of bed, and headed to the window where she could see the clock tower. It felt too late for morning. Just 10 o’clock.
It was time for everyone to wake up. As I turned, a silver tray suddenly appeared in my field of vision. Sehyeon approached the table, lifted the silver cover, and checked the contents.
It was a sandwich-like food. Leaving his food as is, Sehyeon looked for a mirror. He looked for it and looked under his neck. Fortunately, there were no handprints or anything. I let out a sigh, not sure if it was relief or concern.
Sehyun put the sandwich in her inventory and left the room. When I saw his companions, I felt like food was going down my throat.
Geek-
“Greetings to Rod.”
In front of the door was Euncheong, standing in the sunlight. His expression was stern, perhaps because of what happened yesterday. Sehyun smiled slightly at Euncheong, who greeted her politely.
“Did you eat breakfast?”
“Yes, as the Lord commanded.”
“What about Zenon?”
“Still resting.”
“Let’s go to Zeno.”
Euncheong slightly lowered his head and then straightened his body. And then, one step behind her, she started walking at Sehyeon’s pace.
I felt deep consideration. Euncheong was a vassal who came to the village after Ruhak became a Black Heavenly Clan. Maybe that’s why he didn’t understand Ruhak’s hatred. There was quite a difference in the reliability of the vassals who had changed races along the way and the vassals who originally came from the Black Heaven tribe.
“Euncheong.”
“yes.”
“Nothing uncomfortable, right? Or something like a worry. “Is there anything difficult?”
“We just need to make sure Rod is safe.”
“Not like that. “Thinking of you.”
“Not in my case.”
It was an honest statement. Sehyeon stopped his steps and looked back at Euncheong. Euncheong stood quietly with his eyes downcast. He was also a spokesperson for heroes. That meant that other heroes were dissatisfied.
Sehyeon took a step closer to him. The wind passed through his hair.
“It’s okay, just tell me.”
“I miss Rod a lot.”
“Don’t talk around. Is there a need for an interview? no… “I’ll find out.”
“Let me ask you one thing.”
“okay.”
“Does your acknowledgment have a citation scope?”
Euncheong’s gaze was straight ahead. Sehyeon’s eyelashes blinked slightly. It was a familiar question. This wasn’t the first time I’ve been asked this question. This was what I heard every time I checked reliability, and what Sehyun said each time was fixed.
“… “As long as the target is you, there is no limit to my recognition.”
It wasn’t a lie. It was the best answer Sehyeon could give to his retainers who always lived with anxiety and worry. Euncheong always returned after hearing that answer.
But this time was different.
“Can you please check?”
Words that sounded polite were unfamiliar. Still, Sehyun didn’t worry. He silently nodded his head and gave permission.
“Thank you for Rod’s consideration.”
The moment he thought the wind had passed by, Euncheong lowered his body. As soon as I saw my knees hit the cold floor, a thick arm came inside Sehyun’s waist. The sight of Euncheong hugging her tightly and burying her cheek in her arms to prevent her from getting hurt gave me a feeling of déjà vu.
Euncheong’s even breathing rose through his chest. Sehyun just watched the calmly closed eyes. It was a look of longing.
I felt the affection through the arms tightly hugging my waist. Se-hyeon also reached out his hand and touched Eun-cheong’s cheek.
If this was what they wanted, Sehyun was willing to grant it. Suddenly, looking at Euncheong like this, I felt like I knew what the heroes were dissatisfied with.
The arms, which were tightly intertwined, were separated only after a while. Euncheong stood neatly and smiled, looking the same as before.
“Please take a look at other heroes as well.”
was his answer. Sehyun smiled slightly and turned around. For now, to Zeno. And after making room for Kwak Jeong-han, Yoon Je-ha, and Kim Gap-jun. I planned to find heroes after that.
Blessed Behia. In my field of vision, I saw two huge portals floating in the air.
When Sehyun checked Zeno’s condition and found the guest room where everyone was, for some reason, everyone’s expressions were not so good. In addition, he glances behind Se-hyeon and looks for someone.
Going one step further, Kim Gap-jun and Yoon Je-ha visibly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Euncheong.
“Let’s go, let’s get out of this stuffy place now.”
“Are you really going to give me an instructor position?”
“So? Ah, Mr. Kim Gap-Jun, you surrendered, right?”
“I did it a long time ago, you bastard.”
“What happened to the other residents who were with us? “Why can’t I see it?”
At that moment, everyone turned to look at Sehyeon. The expressions on their faces that seemed to have a lot to say seemed to be asking if they really didn’t know, so Se-hyeon had no choice but to look back at Eun-cheong.
“Euncheong, what happened to the other residents who were transferred to the surrender?”
“Excluding those who were here, there were a total of 32 people, but 18 of them escaped before coming here, and the remaining 14 are currently living in different quarters of this tower.”
Of course it would be confinement, but the convenience would be better than living in a nameless village. However, the fact that everyone’s expressions are not good probably means that there is more to it than that.
“Tell me everything you know, it’s okay.”
“Discord broke out in two of them and escalated into a conflict, and now a total of 4 people have died, leaving a total of 10 people remaining.”
“The Archduke’s actions.”
“There was none.”
It means that they just left it at that. Yeah, it wasn’t his place to get involved in all that. Moreover, this situation would not have been pleasing to the Archduke, who had no choice but to consider the actual benefits.
Still, it was inevitable that the situation was sad. Most of the victims were obviously injured or weak. Sehyeon had no intention of taking care of the stones that needed to be sifted out.
“Mr. Gapjun Kim.”

“The weight is freezing. “Why, what?”
“Kim Gap-Jun, please choose. I have no intention of taking such people with me, so please use your experience as a village chief to filter them out. Among them, we will select and educate only those who are worthy of being raised. “You have a good eye, right?”
“If you choose, what are you going to do with the rest?”
“yes. Those who will be brought in will be placed as temporary residents, and those who will not be… We will export it to the portal. “If it gets to the point where it kills people, it will find a way to live on its own.”
Sehyeon had no intention of supporting murder. Gapjun Kim clicked his tongue and nodded. Once the story was over, everyone decided to move. First of all, the people trapped in this tower.
As Euncheong said, there were a total of 10 people trapped in the tower. The sight of people stretching and coming out of the tower did not look familiar, even if it was just empty words.
“Now it’s worth living.”
“under… The air is nice for once. “Some people seem to have lived happily ever after, but that shouldn’t be the case when we live together.”
“It’s nice here… ?”
Among the crowd, there were some who looked particularly familiar. There was no need to search through memory. It was a man with a severed leg and a young man who hugged him and cried.
The young man passed by Se-hyeon in a trembling manner, struggling to carry the person whose legs had been amputated. I don’t know if the food was stolen by someone else or not, but compared to the last time I saw him, his forearms were skinnier. He looked extremely anxious and anxious.
Still, he was alive.
The man whose leg was amputated looked very sorry. Still, she was riding on the back of a skinny man with her mouth shut. I don’t know what their relationship is. However, it was not an appearance that was easy to pass by.
That’s why I treated them in the first place.
“… Mr. Jeonghan.”
“yes.”
“Could you please carry that person instead of me? “I can’t do it because of my wings.”
Kwak Jeong-han must have been looking in the same direction, so he turned to the skinny man as soon as Se-hyeon finished speaking. Then, after saying something intently, he picked up the man with the severed leg from the skinny man’s back and carried him on his back.
“I will move. Gapjun Kim, please make sure no one falls behind.”
“I have the shortest legs here, you son of a bitch! “Walk slowly!”
“Oh, yes.”
In fact, it wasn’t a walking distance to the training center. Nevertheless, Sehyeon insisted on walking. It was to impress everyone with the sights of this place. Since they also had to build an empire, it was better to see the completed empire for later purposes.
Among the people looking around the empire with their mouths wide open, only Kim Gap-jun was snoring and chasing after them.
As if he had raised himself to this level.
The training center was not the shabby, small training center we were used to seeing in nameless villages. Buildings of enormous size were expanded in a fan shape around the entrance. At first glance, it would be difficult to guess how many there are.
