MEMORIZE Chapter 298

00298 Butterfly Effect —————————- —————————–=

A strong wind blew. The dust rising from the ground hit my face, and I reflexively closed my eyes.

Even though the wind eventually stopped, I did not open my eyes. Although I couldn’t see anything, all my senses except sight were becoming more sensitive. The heart that was shaking from the fear of death, the lips that were trembling, and the hand of the demon stroking my head. And the countless dark energies treading the earth.

Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump.

At that time, I felt a faint vibration from the ground I was kneeling on. The steps were so rough that they shook the ground. The vibration got stronger and stronger, but as soon as it got closer, it stopped like a lie. Instead, an unpleasant voice that sounded like scraping metal pierced my ears.

“Lord Belphegor. I have something to report to you. We received a call from the reconnaissance unit. “We have confirmed the emergence of the Brain Emperor.”

“Tsk!”

In an instant, a pain surged from the top of my head, as if my hair would be ripped out. But the pain quickly subsided. Rather than pain, I was flooded with surprise at the unbelievable news I had just heard.

“okay? Still, I was wondering if it was possible, but I really came. Kill kill! But the Emperor the Terrible didn’t come alone, right?”

“It is said that contact was lost immediately after confirmation of appearance. However, at the end, there were well over 1,000 people… .”

“One thousand people… . Then all the Hamill guys could have come. Anyway, I understand. Although we are far outnumbered, never let down your guard. “They are each and every one of them people who cannot be underestimated.”

“yes. “I will keep that in mind.”

Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump.

The sound of footsteps faded away again. And I let out a small gasp, trying to control my surprise.

My brother is coming. My brother and colleagues came to rescue me. As soon as I heard those words, an indescribable feeling began to rise in my heart, which had been filled with fear.

But that was only for a moment. A mocking voice came out from Belphegor, who was still holding his hand on the top of my head.

“Hey, Kim Soo-hyun. Open your eyes. “Your brother and colleagues came to save you.”

“… … .”

“Now that I think about it, it’s really interesting. All those great bastards rushing in to save even a lesser person like you. Honestly, there’s no way the Emperor of the Brain wouldn’t have noticed that this was a trap. is not it?”

I didn’t answer Belphegor’s words. Because my feelings were so complicated. A variety of emotions including resentment, shame, relief, and anxiety were cluttering my insides. Above all, I had nothing to say. It was something everyone stopped him from doing, and he acted by his own choice. Falling into a trap was entirely my fault, with no one to blame.

As I thought about that, a sudden feeling of helplessness began to fill me.

There is nothing you can do. I just put more pressure on my closed eyes and bit my lower lip so hard that it bled. Suddenly, I felt like crying. I didn’t want to appear weak in front of this guy. He tried to hold it back somehow, but in the end, it was the moment when the emotions that were rising to the surface rose up to his throat.

Gurgling! Gurgling!

“huh?”

A loud thunder could be heard far ahead. I couldn’t believe my ears for a moment, but since I also heard Belphegor’s questioning voice, it seems I didn’t hear wrong.

“what. Is it already here? No, that wouldn’t be possible. There is definitely a vanguard unit up front… .”

The surroundings were becoming increasingly chaotic. The demons, who had maintained a lifeless calm until just now, were so shaken that they could tell just by sensing the presence of the Emperor. It was then.

Ugh!

I began to feel a thrilling, familiar flow of magic power. It was a wave of magic powerful enough to rumble throughout the space. Eventually, when the rippling waves subsided, I opened my eyes, which had been closed until now, at the sound of a familiar voice echoing everywhere.

(Belphegor.)

“like! This voice… . Brain zero! It seems like there’s quite a distance, but I can’t believe I’m trying to communicate. As expected, it’s amazing~. “Kill!”

(I’m warning you. Take your hands off Suhyun right now.)

“what? You’ve prepared so much for today, and now you’re telling me to give up? Hahaha! Now that I see it, the jokes are pretty high-quality, right?”

(That’s not what I meant….)

Ugh! Ugh!

The flow of magical power continued. Even though he looked in all directions as long as his neck was spinning, he couldn’t find any signs. However, the moment I noticed that a dark light was slowly appearing on the ground, I suddenly raised my head and looked at the sky. My hair was sticky to me due to cold sweat, but I was able to clear my view after shaking my head once or twice.

And in the sky, dark clouds were gathering for some time.

Belphegor must have felt something strange then and raised his head just like me. And I could feel the hand on the top of my head twitching and stiffening, as if I had seen a golden electric current crackling so clearly that it could be seen among the dark clouds.

Gurgling! Gurgling!

At that moment, the sound of thunder once again shook the heavens and earth,

(Soohyun, get your dirty hands off your head.)

My brother’s voice, which had been cut off for a moment, continued again.

At the same time, so many beams of light that covered the sky fell on the ground, emitting yellow light.

*

As soon as I saw the people in the room, my heart started beating loudly.

Jin-ha told me to wait a little while because she would rescue me soon.

The prim Kahi who told me to like her instead.

Taewon told me not to worry and that I would stop this place.

Junseong told me to run far away before he beat me up.

Hyerin, who guided us here, waved brightly and said, “See you later.”

And my older brother Kim Yu-hyeon, who told me to survive until the end.

They were all familiar faces, and they were all people who cared for me knowingly or unknowingly. I missed you like crazy all this time, and there were a lot of things I wanted to say when we met again. But it doesn’t come off easily, as if my mouth is frozen solid.

What should I say? How should I say it?

It’s been a while, everyone. no. This doesn’t work.

I was really sorry. No, this is even weirder.

brother. I miss you. Neither is this.

hello. Mercenary Clan Lord Kim Soo-hyun… .

“You said you could cure the banshee curse?”

“… … … … yes.”

The countless thoughts floating around in my head were “Yes.” It was dismissed with one answer: All the words I had been thinking about since the restaurant, or rather, since I dreamed of the day I would meet my brother again, had now disappeared.

“I heard you don’t have any elixir. “Can I know what treatment method you will use and whether treatment is possible right now?”

My brother’s voice was cold and dry. His eyes were darkened and his face looked gaunt, as if he had been through a lot of mental distress. However, the cold eyes from before were still the same.

“Are you listening now?”

“Su-hyun… ! “What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”

Go Yeon-ju whispered along with the gesture of stabbing me in the back. I suddenly came to my senses and took a deep breath.

When I think about it, it was like this when I first met Soyoung Han. Her mind was unsteady and she could not meet her eyes. In some ways, she may have looked ugly. It was still the same now. A feeling of weeping keeps rising in her heart. Although she covered it with a thick robe, I could feel her lips and hands trembling slightly.

Eventually, when I had exhaled all my breath. I paused for a moment, then took another deep breath and began to enter the room, step by step.

It suddenly occurred to me that maybe I had given the reunion more meaning than it needed to. I wasn’t necessarily hoping for a great reunion. It’s true that I missed them, but I didn’t want a romantic situation where I would hug and shed tears. It was impossible to hope for such a situation in the first place, and there was no need for it.

All I had to do was focus on the goal of returning for the second time. okay. Then it will be okay.

After taking a few steps from my brother, I stopped walking. Then, after clearing his throat once or twice, he opened his mouth in a low voice.

“I can tell you that the treatment method I will use is purification. However, this does not mean a complete cure. Only the banshee curse itself can be removed from the user’s body. “Once you start treatment, you will know for sure, but we will have to wait a little longer to see how the aftereffects from the curse progress.”

“If you lift the Banshee curse, your life can be saved. That’s enough for now. So is treatment possible right now? Or will it take some time?”

The person who answered was Jinha’s older sister. I tried to smile softly, but then I remembered that I was still wearing my hood, and I immediately opened my mouth.

“You can do it right now.”

“Really? Then come on… !”

“wait a minute. “Before entering treatment, there is one condition.”

“The situation is urgent now! You never know when your life may be lost. If it’s compensation enough… .”

I calmly raised my hand to stop Jinha from speaking. And then he turned his head to his older brother again.

“We will begin treatment right away, so I would like everyone here to leave for a moment except Lord Hamill.”

“Can’t we see the treatment process?”

“Because after treatment, I have something to talk about with Lord Hamill.”

“for a moment.”

Just as puzzlement appeared on everyone’s faces, Junseong hyung interrupted me.

“Monica, a southern city. I heard you are from the Mercenary Clan. “If you don’t mind, could you show me your name and face?”

“of course.”

‘Anyway, my suspicious personality still remains.’

On the outside, he seemed cold and callous, but in reality, Junseong was a very considerate person.

“This is Kim Soo-hyun, the clan lord of the Mercantile Clan.”

“ah. The clan lord himself… . yes?”

“Lord of the Mercantile Clan. “This is Kim Soo-hyun.”

“seaweed… . Su-hyun?”

Junseong tilted his head and looked at Yoohyeon.

Finally, I was about to raise my hand to take off the hood. Yuhyeon, who had maintained a cold expression until now, saw a change in his older brother’s face for the first time. His older brother was not one to be swayed simply because his name was similar. The fact that he was reacting like that now meant that he remembered my voice. At first, you couldn’t even think about it, but the moment you heard the name ‘Kim Soo-hyun’, you probably felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort.

My brother looked confused, but then calmly shook his head and muttered to himself, “That can’t be possible.” But his eyes were still fixed on me.

Now, it was time to reveal it.

“brother.”

“… … yes?”

“I was just wondering, and it turns out my brother was right.”

“uh… . uh… . you… . uh… ?”

The expression on his face that had barely calmed down quickly turned into one of astonishment. There were a lot of stares pouring in from all directions, front and back, but I didn’t pay any attention. As much as my brother was looking at me, I was only looking at him.

Seeing that he was half-confident even though I called him brother, I slowly pulled down the hand that was holding the hood. Eventually, the open air cooled my stuffy face. And at that moment, my brother’s eyes and mouth opened wide.

“Wow, that’s ridiculous… .”

“it’s me. “My brother’s younger brother, Kim Soo-hyun.”

“Suhyeon? Soohyun… ?”

The older brother gaped for a while, then staggered towards me as if possessed by something. Soon, his brother’s hands touched my shoulders. The hand on his shoulder touched his cheek, lips, nose, eyes, forehead, and all the way to his head. Only then was I able to see my brother’s face, which had been skeptical, change to confidence.

Receiving my brother’s touch for the first time in a long time, I quietly opened my mouth.

“brother.”

“you you… .”

“When I heard that Clan Hamill’s name was Kim Yu-hyeon, I did it just in case. But when she got the chance, she came to visit… . “I never thought he was my real brother.”

It was an unusual reaction, but I completely understood. No, it may actually be strange for me to speak so calmly. My brother is literally meeting me for the ‘first time’ in the world called Hall Plain.

My brother’s hand soon slid down and settled on my shoulder again. His brother’s expression was truly subtle. The feeling of ‘welcome’ that I feel now was nowhere to be found. After clearly recognizing that I was his younger brother, sadness, pity, pain, anguish, affection, nervousness, regret, etc. were swirling in my older brother’s eyes. And it spoke of one emotion called ‘worry’.

“Suhyeon… .”

“… … .”

“Why are you… .”

“… … .”

My brother’s neck moved slightly, as if he was choking and unable to speak. He then squeezed my shoulder so tightly that he immediately distorted his face and shouted so loudly that I could see his uvula.

“Why are you here?”

My brother’s voice, telling the room to leave, contained such sadness that it reminded me of a scream.

(The remaining ability points are 0 points.)

(I applied the banshee curse. It purified me so completely that not even a speck remained, and nearly half of my lost abilities were restored. However, the aftereffects still remain, and I suffered from the curse for a long time, so my durability (-3) and stamina (-5) ) has permanently lost some of its abilities. However, if it is managed well in the future, its reduced abilities will be able to recover.)

The treatment itself was not very difficult. As Seraph said, the difference in ‘status’ was so great that Banshee’s curse was unable to resist much and was completely burned down in front of Hwajeong.

My physical condition is fine. There was a very slight tingling sensation in her right arm, but it didn’t feel the same strain as before.

‘There’s nothing I can do about permanently lowered abilities, but there’s no need to use elixir. By the way, the guardian of the northern continent… ? He is the guide of light… ?’

“I can not believe it. How on earth did you treat it? The curse energy surrounding my body has been completely purified! “The flow of magical energy and physical condition have become much more stable!”

“Really? Black… .”

“Hello. “It’s been an hour.”

“thank you! thank you!”

When I was lost in thought for a moment about the unexpected user information, Kahi, who was checking Lee Hyo-eul’s condition, opened her mouth. Her voice was dripping with joy and joy. As I tried to quietly respond to the exclamations I heard here and there, I felt someone grabbing my elbow again.

“Suhyun. Soohyun?”

“brother? Oh, I got treatment. My life was saved, but the aftereffects still remain. So, especially for recovery in the future… .”

“Suhyun. Let’s talk to my brother first. huh?”

“Uh, yes.”

The worries that had been focused on Lee Hyo-eul until just now were now focused solely on me. She nodded her head at the voice of earnest request and looked around, to see that everyone was giving her awkward looks. As such, her older brother had been showing a restless attitude from earlier. Maybe you’ve always seen him cool and dignified, but suddenly seeing him like this gives him that kind of look.

“Lee Jun-seong. I’m sorry I keep telling you to come back, but please take some clan members and go back out… . Ah, Suhyeon. “Are the people behind you your companions?”

“huh.”

Ko Yeon-ju, Kim Han-byeol, and An Sol had not been quiet since meeting their older brother. They also seemed very surprised to learn that the Lord of the Hamill Clan was my older brother.

“Then let’s go out and talk. Kahi and Hyerin stay here and keep an eye on her. “And I will show Junseong, Taewon, and Jinha’s younger brother to the parlor.”

“all right.”

As soon as Jinha answered, my brother immediately dragged me outside. Before I was grabbed by my brother and dragged away, I was barely able to signal to the three of them to wait for a moment (the three had yet to take off their robes, not even their hoods).

The place my brother took me was a terrace with a clear view of the garden, which I was familiar with. Outside, the rain was still pouring non-stop.

While watching the rainwater splashing down, out of habit, I reached into my arms and took out a cigarette.

“huh? Su-hyeon, do you burn tobacco?”

“uh? Yes.”

It was then. My older brother turned around and put his back against the railing, and when he saw me putting a piece of tobacco in my mouth, he started to ask.

“You didn’t burn the first cigarette, right?”

“that is… . “It just so happened.”

“Don’t smoke because it’s harmful to your health. “Give it to me quickly.”

‘no. ‘It’s no harm, bro.’

My older brother took the tobacco from my hand as if it were obvious, and I obediently took it from him. For some reason, I felt like I would laugh at this ambiguous situation.

My brother folded the tobacco in half, threw it outside, and then sighed heavily.

“okay… . “How much did we talk about?”

“I even asked why I was here.”

“that’s right. It did. Soohyun, what the hell are you… .”

“for a moment. “Then why are you here?”

The moment I asked the opposite question, my brother immediately shut his mouth. You may have realized this yourself by asking the question just now. What a meaningless question that is.

I don’t know the exact number right now, but if I’m right, the total user population in the North Continent was estimated to be between 40,000 and 60,000 people. Even if they were not related by blood, it was rare for people who knew each other to come in and meet each other. In fact, as far as I know, there was a time when a member of a popular girl group or a famous celebrity came in and became a hot topic.

Of course, this was only the first episode. But one thing is certain, the world was just quiet, without any chaos. That means… .

‘Before I joined Hall Plain, my brother was definitely in Hyundai.’

If you think about it, it was nonsense. My brother must have been a user for 2 years now, so it would be normal for him to have been forgotten or disappeared from my mind. But my brother definitely existed as a family member. While I was in the military, I often sent letters and visited him several times. Yes, it was my brother, beyond any doubt.

“Still, I want to hear it.”

Have I been lost in thought for too long? When I woke up from my thoughts, I could see my brother’s eyes staring at me. Anyway, I can’t define such an unusual situation right now, and it was a story that would come up again when I talked to my brother anyway.

After roughly organizing my thoughts, I opened my mouth, trying to sound as calm as possible.

“Nothing special. She was returning home on the train after reporting for discharge, when she fell asleep. But when I woke up, it was a summoning room. Well, I’m also curious about why my brother is here.”

“what? I was summoned when I returned from the military? These angels are just… .”

“it’s okay. If you think about it that way, what user wouldn’t feel aggrieved here? “It’s meaningless to argue now.”

I laughed and shook my head, and my brother slowly loosened his clenched fists. Immediately, I could feel my older brother’s eyes looking closely at every corner of me from his face.

There was silence for a while. And the rain was still falling gently. I was deliberately looking outside to avoid my brother’s gaze.

As the silence, which felt a little awkward, continued, a soft voice broke the silence.

“Soohyun, you’ve changed a lot.”

“… is it.”

“haha. It’s a bit weird to say this, but honestly, I don’t think he’s my sister. “You’ve grown up, our Soohyun.”

“… … .”

My older brother nodded, walked over to me, and patted my head with a light smile.

But for some reason, what my brother said just now pierced deep into my heart.

—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=

hello. This is Ro Yujin.

Well, I have one thing to tell you, readers. In my opinion, there is no need to obtain equipment only from expeditions or expeditions. haha. Well, the clue was kept hidden in this episode. Even if you have an eagle eye, you won’t notice this! Please look forward to the next episode! I have a feeling that the next episode will continue to praise Kim Yu-hyun for some reason… . -_-a

『Reripple』

1. Kanesada: Congratulations on first place. You took first place last time, and you took first place this time too. (Could it be the emergence of a new powerhouse?!) Haha. Please enjoy this episode as well. 🙂

2. Yuiver: I have that feeling. Some equipment will probably come in handy in the upcoming war!

3. Flute: Haha, are you curious about the one who guides the light? This part is a little twisted. It’s a little complicated. Let me tell you one thing: angels are not fools. Hehehe.

5. Jeongyeon: Boom boom boom boom!

6. Wow~~: Thank you for your hard work driving! Thank you for the coupon! _(__)_

7. LOVE Gaeul: Haha, Hwajeong’s exact power is um. I tried to write it down when I met Seraph last time, but it became too long and I didn’t need to include it at that time, so I cut it. 🙂 In the second round, none of the users exceeding 101 will appear. Except the main character. (I’m thinking about it.)

8. Melis: Modification completed. I was mistaken for a D Minus rank. thank you _(__)_

9. Lea: Haha, I had the ability back then, but my attitude didn’t change much. However, this time, everyone was surprised by the sudden change in attitude. It’s the power of 101! (Huh?)

10. Gamjatteot: Heh heh heh. I was surprised to see the comment. Especially the first one! second! third! When I do this, I smile without even realizing it. 😀 It reminded me of when Kwon So-ra appeared in Magia. 🙂 hot!
