MEMORIZE Chapter 224

00224 Misunderstandings lead to misunderstandings ———————————————————– —————————-=

“That’s right. Room of Summoning… Should I say that? After waking up there, I entered into a rite of passage under the guidance of angels. “When I came to my senses, I saw Yuna, and several other people sitting around in the vacant lot.”

Baek Han-gyeol spoke in a quiet voice. Although he stuttered a bit, I imagined the situation in my head as I listened to him speak clearly.

“I saw several people. Even though they heard the explanation, everyone was confused and anxious. But among them, there was one man who was particularly calm. He stepped into the center of the anxious crowd and instantly attracted attention. “That was my first meeting with Park Hwan-hee.”

When Park Hwan-hee was mentioned, Baek Han-gyeol gritted his teeth and then let out a small breath.

“and… .”

To be honest, the story of the first and second days that followed was nothing special. Just Park Hwan-hee led the people, escaped the forest, found the point, met other survivors, and she acted with them. And in the midst of all this, Park Hwan-hee’s leadership shined.

“That’s how we were able to get through the second day. Until then, everyone, including me, had full faith in Park Hwan-hee. This man could lead us to survive here. The only reason I was able to endure that hellish place even though I was mentally unstable… . It was because of his desire to live and the hope that he could live. And at the center of that hope was Park Hwan-hee. “It was the third day after two hellish days.”

If you listen to what they say next, they say that they encountered groups of survivors a total of three times, starting with the first people in the clearing. And Park Hwan-hee attracted all of those survivors to her team. Her outward justification would have been to work together to survive here, and her unique ability, charisma, would have also played a role.

As long as you can control the dissonance, being bigger is not a bad thing. First of all, the more people there are, the higher the combat power.

But dissonance aside, there was one most important problem with the rite of passage. That is the food shortage problem. If there were one or two teams, it would be okay, but if there were four teams combined, it would have been difficult to cover even one or two meals, let alone a day, with the food available at one point.

“At that time, the proportion of men on our team was very high. We tried to save as much food as possible, but all we could do was feed everyone’s mouths. Strangely, I was able to meet many survivors during the second day. But on the other hand, I had only found the point once until then. I tried my best to hold on, but it ended up being the third day. “All the food I had was gone.”

“Then we would have had to find food.”

“yes. Park Hwan-hee, who until then had sought maximum safety except when entering the house, eventually said that she would have to go far to find food. And he recruited volunteers to go out and look for food. But who would want to volunteer when there are monsters out there? I also felt reluctant at first. But then something amazing happened.”

“marvel?”

In response to my question, Baek Han-gyeol nodded once and immediately opened his mouth. The surprising thing he said was that none other than Park Hwan-hee was the first to volunteer.

“Everyone was dissatisfied with the food, but everyone still trusted Park Hwan-hee. In any case, he was an impeccable leader, and his results were not bad. Perhaps moved by the spirit of sacrifice, people who had only paid attention until then began to apply one by one. And, my sister Yuna and I were also one of those applicants.”

“They said they volunteered to go out to collect food.”

“yes. To be honest, I was the youngest among the guys, and Yuna was one of the few girls. She was embarrassed, but she was almost like a bully. “It is true that I was a little concerned, but I wanted to help in any way possible.”

Baek Han-gyeol’s response could be said to have been appropriate. Whenever a large number of people gather in a place where survival is important, such as a rite of passage, some dissatisfaction is bound to come out at least once. And the arrow of dissatisfaction tended to be focused on the people who contributed the least on the team. I organized my thoughts and continued to focus on what he said.

By applying first, Park Hwan-hee was able to gather enough people to search for food. It is said that more than ten people were well armed with the weapons they had acquired so far and went out to get food. And fortunately, Baek Han-gyeol said that after exploring for half a day, he was able to discover a new point, and although it was not much, he was able to obtain enough food to last for a day.

“We decided to remember that place. There was a rule that the save point found on the second day could not be stayed for more than one day. “I thought about leaving a few people behind to play, but I thought it would be better for everyone to move together, so we shared food with each other and decided to go back to where we came from.”

“iced coffee. Save point. “I managed to check that rule.”

“yes. Park Hwan-hee checked all of those things in detail. Anyway, as we were walking back, someone raised a question. The safety of the save point only lasts one day. So it took half a day to get food, so considering the time they spent in the morning, they probably thought that the people waiting might be in danger. Park Hwan-hee thought that made sense, and after much deliberation, she eventually decided to change her direction.”

“If you changed direction… . hmm.”

“When I left, I went around the mountain, but on the way back, I decided to go over the mountain in a straight line. “Then, the distance that would take half a day could be significantly reduced.”

‘You’re crazy. No, if you had experienced the forest in the first place, you would have wanted to avoid it as much as possible, right?’

As if to answer my question, Baek Han-gyeol immediately continued speaking.

“Of course, people who started out in the forest were reluctant to go in. Even if it takes some time, shouldn’t we go back the way we came? . However, there was no guarantee that the road would be safe, and everyone was nervous and a little tired. They were also well-armed, and in the worst case scenario, they probably thought they would be able to survive because they had food. Eventually we entered the mountain. And it ended up being the worst choice.”

Baek Han-gyeol, who had been constantly moving his mouth until this point, finally stopped talking. His face was full of gloom, as if he had not yet shaken off the trauma of that time. I decided to use the opportunity to make another drink that I made earlier. Finally, a cup overflowing with foam was handed to Baek Han-gyeol, who accepted it with a slightly brightened face.

After taking a sip of his drink, he spoke in a low voice.

“I still don’t know how the monsters came together. Suddenly, some monkey-like guys started chasing us, and eventually they snatched us one by one, as if they were playing with us. Three people were attacked by monsters in a row, and only then did we realize the situation and start running away. While I was running away, I heard a scream from behind… . “It was truly horrible.”

“You didn’t plan on fighting?”

“I don’t know. No, honestly, I don’t think I did. The moment Park Hwan-hee, who was in front, started running, she ran frantically after him. That was the first time I could see his urgent expression. At that time, he ran forward while muttering to himself, but now that I think about it, it felt like swearing. So we kept running, but one by one, our colleagues disappeared. Some people may have been caught by the monkeys, and others may have fallen while running too quickly. “Once we got halfway up the mountain, the number of people who started out as 10 ended up being down to only 5 people left.”

“The three of them are Park Hwan-hee, you, and your girlfriend?”

“yes. Should I say it is a blessing among misfortunes? I think Yuna and I were able to stay until the end because we were in the center of the group for protection. They took over 5 people, but the monkeys were persistent. But as soon as we got over the top and started going downhill, we also started to gain some speed.”

“Still, it would have been difficult to beat the monkeys. “They are really good at climbing mountains.”

Baek Han-gyeol tilted his head for a moment when he heard the word Mankey. However, as if something was being pointed out, he said, “Ah.” He opened his mouth with an expression that said,

“Manky? Ah, those monkeys. yes. I didn’t get into a situation where I felt like I was playing with it like before, but I could feel the distance steadily decreasing. Yuna, who had weak physical strength, continued to fall behind. I, who was running with her older sister, could barely catch up with Park Hwan-hee, who was running ahead of her. Because my sister continued to squirm, I screamed for her to come with me and for help. He must have heard me, so he slowly slowed down his running speed. I felt truly grateful, thinking of myself as a leader. But then something unbelievable happened.”

“Unbelievable?”

Baek Han-gyeol paused again at my question. He closed his eyes tightly and opened them again, as if trying to remember exactly what happened at that time. And when he repeated it three or four times, he opened his mouth clearly and clearly, word by word, in a voice that sounded like he was chewing.

“yes. Park Hwan-hee slowed down and came next to me, stretched out her foot and hooked my leg while I was in the middle of running. “So secretly that no one will notice.”

“what… Called?”

“I reflexively fell, and Yuna and I also hit the floor and rolled. Of course, the Mankeys’ attention was focused on us. And taking advantage of that opportunity, Park Hwan-hee increased her speed again and ran in front of her as fast as she could.”

“And what about the others?”

“Abominably, the moment he heard our screams and focused his attention for a moment, Park Hwan-hee immediately stretched out his arms towards us. Then she turned and ran away with a worried look on her face. But I still remember it clearly. “Those mocking eyes she gazed at me for the last time.”

Baek Han-gyeol finished speaking and calmly drank his drink. His voice was quite calm as he spoke the important part of whether drinking it repeatedly had any effect. However, his eyes were burning brightly with anger.

I watched Baek Han-gyeol for a while and then decided to try my luck. This was a kind of testing question, not because I really wanted to know. However, before I could even open my mouth, a cold voice came from the side to Baek Han-gyeol.

“I have one question.”

“yes? “Which one?”

Kim Han-byeol was watching Baek Han-gyeol with keen eyes. For the first time in a while, she seemed to realize that there was something strange about her, as if her past personality had been resurrected.

“Assuming what you say is true. So how were you able to survive among those monsters? “If I had fallen, I would have been the number one target for the monkeys who followed me.”

“Well, that’s… .”

Baek Han-gyeol’s gaze fell from Kim Han-byeol’s face to her chest. The moment he saw the lion symbol shining golden on his beautifully rising chest, the ridge of his neck moved.

“Just by luck… . I was able to survive by just doing everything I could. “I don’t really remember.”

‘Tsk. Are you saying that Kim Han-byeol cannot be trusted? Well, it doesn’t matter to me.’

Kim Han-byeol frowned slightly at Baek Han-gyeol’s answer. She soon turned her head to me, and Baek Han-gyeol also looked at me, probably because she was uneasy about Han-byeol’s question. And that gaze had a pleading tone. It was as if he was asking me to please trust him.

Hanbyul Kim opened his mouth once more.

“If you say it like that, it’s hard to take it literally, isn’t it? “What you say could be a lie.”

“Well, it’s not a lie!”

“then. Can you invite a new user named Park Hwan-hee and have a three-way meeting? Are you confident?”

“I could! Ha, but… .”

“stop.”

‘Why is he really like this today?’

Kim Han-byeol’s tone of voice somehow contained the feeling that he disliked Baek Han-gyeol. I don’t know the exact reason, but I stopped their argument. And immediately to Hanbyeol, “Watch your mouth.” He sent a signal to stop interfering.

Kim Han-byeol, who received my signal, closed her mouth with a slightly indignant look on her face. Eventually, I turned my gaze to Baek Han-gyeol and saw him biting his lip with tearful eyes. He looked back and forth between me and Kim Han-byeol, then took a deep breath and opened her mouth.
