MEMORIZE Chapter 393

00393 Epilogue 4/4: “Everyone together.” ————————————————– ———————-=

* Please read today’s review.

“Then, this concludes the first meeting. Thank you all for your hard work.”

The fifth day after the war ended.

Barbara’s meeting, which started in the morning, was declared canceled two hours after the meeting.

Two hours is a time that cannot be considered too short. However, considering that the users who participated in the meeting were members of one clan, it cannot be said that it was a very fruitful meeting.

Just like saying there was nothing to eat at the famous banquet, it was a fruitless meeting from my point of view.

Still, looking at it objectively, the outcome of the meeting was quite reasonable. This is because the direction of solving the most urgent tasks one by one is not a very bad idea.

Although the war was now over, there were still remnants of the Allied forces on the run, and as many as five cities were devastated by the invasion. Accordingly, the East, South, and North prioritized tracking down the remnants and repairing the damage caused by the invasion.

It was also agreed that other post-war issues, such as relief activities for other users and prisoner management, would be resolved gradually through the second and third meetings.

The distribution of roles was also quite reasonable.

For example, in this battle, the Hamill Clan, which maintained its original strength, participates in the pursuit of the remnants. Perhaps you should start organizing as soon as the meeting is over.

In comparison, in the case of the Goryeo clan, which suffered great damage, it was decided to remain in the city and assist with relief efforts.

Anyway.

Anyway, the Mercenary Clan is a free mercenary clan. With the end of the war, the mercenaries’ mission ended. From now on, it is my authority to decide the Mercenary Clan’s actions, and it cannot be anyone else’s.

With that thought in mind, I checked the number of people in the conference room, which was less than half of the class, and immediately got up. There was no reason to stay any longer once the meeting was over.

The entrance to the Golden Lion Clan House outside the conference room was filled with people who had just finished a meeting. Some people were briskly walking as if they were going back to the city right away, while others were gathered together with other people and talking with a serious look on their faces.

Murmur. Murmur.

While walking through the crowd of people, I suddenly felt a strange feeling. People gathered along the way were giving me sideways glances. Among them, there were people who were staring at me openly, so I was in a situation where my head was tilted.

Anyway, it was a moment when I decided to go outside and increased my walking speed even more.

“Merchionary Road.”

“Well, well… .”

A hand tapping my shoulder and a familiar voice grabbed me.

The moment I glanced away, I ended up blinking once or twice.

At some point, two women came next to me and were staring at me.

One is Istantel Low Lord, the Queen of Iron Blood, Soyoung Han.

The other is Nam Da-eun, Queen of Swords.

The place where the two queens were together was like a beautiful painting, but it also had an unfamiliar atmosphere.

“long time no see. How have you been?”

“Mmm, Mercenary Lord… .”

I slowly turned to Han So-young’s greeting. For a moment, I wondered why the two were together, but since I was greeted, it was rude to remain blank.

“Long time no see. Istantel Row Road. “After the examination.”

Han So-young nodded once or twice and took a couple of steps closer to me. It was just long enough for her delicate scent to fill her nose.

Finally, Han So-young spoke in a quiet voice as if whispering.

“I heard a lot about Mercantile Road today. Thank you for your hard work.”

“yes? “What do you mean?”

“The rumor is that your performance this time was great.”

At the next words, I felt my eyes widen.

It was not wrong to say that he was active. He was definitely active.

But that probably hasn’t been mentioned properly yet. Moreover, how does Han So-young, who was in the west, know that fact?

The questions continued to grow in an instant.

However, the moment I thought about Soyoung Han’s words, I was able to immediately understand the situation. At the same time, I felt like I understood the strange stares I had felt earlier.

‘Right. ‘It’s a rumor.’

It would be strange if there was such a fuss and no one saw it.

I nodded lightly, then smiled bitterly.

“well. For me, rather than individual performance… . I remember more the clan members I couldn’t protect during the war. “At least for now.”

“is it so. I couldn’t say, “I did a great job,” so it was an answer that contained a sense of humility in its own way.

“… sorry.”

“ah… .”

However, the meaning that the two queens accepted was different, and they both showed a sad look at the same time. I reflected inwardly, thinking that I had said something pointless.

And that was when I sighed for no reason.

“Merchionary Road.”

Suddenly, I felt a cool yet infinitely soft texture on the back of my hand.

I looked down in surprise, and before I knew it, I could see Han So-young’s beautiful hands holding mine with both hands.

Next, a quiet yet somewhat comforting tone flowed in.

“I understand how you feel. “If this is your first time, it will probably be very difficult.”

“ah… . yes.”

“I don’t know how to comfort you with what you’re feeling right now… . Still, I hope you cheer up.”

“Okay, thank you.”

I lowered my head, trying to appear calm, and quickly withdrew my hand. For a moment, I felt a slight grasping sensation in my hand, but I soon felt myself letting go.

‘hand.’

I suddenly felt my face getting hot, but I quickly calmed down. And when I look away to change the topic, Geomhu soon catches my eye. She raised her hands and put them down, her face looked very worried, but when she made eye contact with me, she blinked rapidly.

Although I was worried that I may have injured my head during the war, I calmly opened my mouth.

“Now that I think about it, why did you two…?” .”

“ah. “I have something to talk about for a moment.”

Han So-young answers quickly. She nodded once or twice, and then her lips opened again.

“In the future, Istantel Row plans to build a siege network starting from the western city. so… . I was wondering if I could possibly get help from Geomhu… .”

Han So-young glanced at Geomhu for a moment and continued speaking with sparkling eyes.

“You said you don’t have any regrets about the clan you currently belong to. “I was simultaneously soliciting it.”

Seeing Soyoung Han quickly admit it, I was able to immediately understand the situation.

‘Live in peace.’

Although he gave a good reason, in the end, he was saying that he was interested in recruiting Geomhu. In other words, he was a talent that anyone could covet, and from what I heard from Kim Deok-pil, he had no major contacts with his current clan, so it was a story with a lot of potential.

Moreover, Han So-young, who was second to none in terms of greed for talent, would not have been able to leave Geomhu, who was traveling alone, alone.

Anyway, it didn’t really matter if I was going to Han So-young, so I opened my mouth in a good mood.

“okay. then… . Maybe I’ll see you often at Monica in the future. haha.”

It was then.

“Oh, no.”

Nam Da-eun shook her head left and right and quietly opened her mouth. And perhaps because Han So-young’s staring gaze was burdensome, she continued speaking while looking only at me.

“just… . “It hasn’t been decided yet, but I’m thinking about it.”

“hmm… .”

I was lost in thought for a moment as I watched the prosecutor subtly denying it.

‘The current clan is almost ruined… . Did he say he was a man-hater?

However, looking at his attitude towards me, it didn’t seem like he was an averse person to the point of extreme hatred. In fact, since he had been assigned the task of special leader before the war, I thought it was just a matter of some resistance.

‘or not… . ‘Maybe it’s because Seol-ah told me that I’m a good person.’

Or maybe I’m mistaken.

I laughed at the trivial thought that crossed my mind and came out of my thoughts. And when I saw Han So-young with an expressionless face with her lips slightly protruding, I decided to help her a little.

Actually, I think it would be fun to watch the push and pull of the two like this… . In the long run, it was beneficial for me to go to Istantel Row.

“User Nam Da-eun. As you said, if you are not tied to the current clan, it would be a good idea to visit Monica. “Mechanery also received a lot of help from Istantel Row when settling down in Monica.”

“A mercenary? “Are you Monica?”

Watching Geomhu answer cutely, I nodded in agreement.

“yes. ah. “Now that I think about it, weren’t my clan members indebted to me during the war?”

“As far as I’m concerned… .”

“no. I heard she got a lot of help. “I heard that thanks to you, you were able to overcome many crises before my arrival.”

“If you think about it that way, I also received help.”

Geomhu shook his head sharply, perhaps wanting to emphasize that it was okay.

‘Then you are teacher?’

I tilted my head for a moment, but anyway, if it wasn’t for Geomhu, I don’t know what would have happened to the kids before I got there.

“If you happen to come to Monica along Istantel Row Road, please be sure to stop by Mercenary.”

“Well, is that okay?”

“of course. It’s a lifesaver. “If it’s Geomhu, I would definitely welcome it.”

“… “Really?”

At last, I nodded my head once in response.

Although it may have been misleading in some ways, the mention of Monica was aimed at Istantel Rowe.

When I looked at Han So-young just in case, I saw her sticking out her lips and coughing weakly.

I laughed heartily on the inside and barely opened my mouth.

“I think we should go now.”

Since we both had work to do, it was better for Haehu to share them appropriately and go their separate ways. Also, no matter how good the intentions, it was polite to show a moderate amount of misbehavior, and I thought that Han So-young would be able to cook well if she did this much.

Of course, the fact that the number of gazes is gradually increasing was not the reason.

Han So-young, probably thinking the same thing as me, took three or four steps back from me.

“Then I’ll just go. “Take care of yourself.”

This time I said hello first.

“yes. Then take a look. “I hope to see you later when everything is over.”

“yes. “I will see you soon.”

‘?’

Nam Da-eun’s words bothered me a bit because I didn’t know what they meant, but I lowered my head, thinking that good things are good things.

After saying my final goodbyes, I immediately turned around and left the entrance.

Now all that remains is for me to return to the Mercantile Clan.

*

After arriving at the warp gate, I walked quickly towards the Mercantile House. I thought about sending a message to the crystal ball saying I would arrive soon, but decided not to. Anyway, I sent Goyeonju early this morning, so I’m sure he’s doing well.

However, if there is one thing I wish for when I arrive, it would be to show an attitude that has moved away from Shin Sang-yong’s death to some extent.

Perhaps because I ran from time to time, I quickly reached the Mercantile House.

The presence felt inside was silence itself. For some reason, I felt like tension was rising.

Finally, the moment I opened the door and entered, I saw an unexpected sight.

“… … .”

I saw clan members.

All clan members were gathered in front of Shin Sang-yong’s grave in a corner of the garden.

I opened the door and then carefully closed it.

At first glance, there was a sad yet solemn aura among the clan members.

No one speaks, no one moves. Occasionally, some of the clan members who were staring at the tomb would just look up at the sky.

I stood at the entrance and observed the clan members for a while. And I got a subtle feeling from the fact that all the clan members were there. What was flowing was clearly a sad energy… . At the same time, rather than being as helpless as before, the faces are calm and seem like they have decided on something.

After staring at the clan members for a while, I slowly walked away.

“number… .”

“clan… .”

Several clan members turned around as if they had sensed someone coming in, but I raised my hand to stop them. Then he slowly shortened the distance, muffled by the sound of his footsteps, and melted into them like a ghost.

Finally, at the sight of the tomb in front of me, I swallowed a weak moan.

Anhyeon was kneeling in front of the tomb. The sight of his eyes quietly closed is even quite solemn.

Anhyeon bowed twice and slowly stood up. After some time passed, the guy opened his eyes. And then he calmly turned his body and looked right back at me. He probably knew I was coming already.

“older brother. I heard that if you collect 1 million gold points, you can use your wish in the user store.”

“… … .”

“older brother. I want to save my brother Sang-Yong. No, I will make sure to save you.”

It’s a bit of a surprise, considering it’s been a while since we’ve seen each other face to face. However, as soon as Ahn Hyun spoke, the eyes of all clan members were focused on me.

Suddenly, my shoulders felt heavy. At the same time, I suddenly remembered myself from 5 days ago.

‘Let’s stop for now.’

‘please… . Please let’s stop… . that… . Let’s talk later.’

‘There’s no need to talk at length. That is all. ‘I’ll just end this here.’

‘And today… . We recommend that you get a good rest. Then disperse.’

Suddenly, I regretted saying that.

I shouldn’t have said that. She shouldn’t have avoided it.

okay. At the very least, the issue of new commercial use should have been resolved.

I calmly turned my head and looked around at each of my clan members. And I could understand why Lim Hanna and Go Yeonju were so worried about me. Ahead of Shin Sang-yong’s problem, I ran away from myself, unable to face the approaching future.

I calmly organized my thoughts. And then he fixed his gaze on Anhyeon again. The guy’s eyes were constantly fluttering.

Eventually, I opened my mouth in a dry voice.

“Originally, I had no intention of saving him. “She thought it was right.”

“… … .”

“… It won’t be easy. Are you confident you won’t regret it?”

“yes. “You will never regret it.”

Anhyeon answered immediately. Once I felt like I had made up my mind, I decided to tackle the problem I had been ignoring.

“good. “I won’t stop you from saving your life.”

For a moment, Ahn Hyun’s face lit up, but I continued speaking immediately.

“Just promise me one thing.”

“promise… . “This?”

“When Shin Sang-yong is saved later.”

When Shin Sang-yong found out that he could not return to Earth.

“No matter what situation comes your way… . “I will endure it unconditionally.”

As expected, Ahn Hyeon showed a puzzled face for a moment, as if he didn’t understand right now. However, she seemed to have a strong desire to save it and immediately nodded her head.

After confirming Anhyeon’s promise, I let out a deep sigh.

“Let’s go in.”

“Su-hyun. First of all, the meal… .”

“no. The results of the first meeting have been released. So, go straight to the conference room on the 3rd floor… .”

At that moment, I stopped talking without realizing it.

Finally, just before speaking again, I glanced up at the sky.

“… … .”

The thick fog that had formed in the morning has cleared and white clouds are floating in the sky. The sun rose high across the sky, shining bright sunlight on the garden.

“… I’ll just eat first. “Everyone together.”

Soon, I walked calmly, following the long sunlight.

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

1. Part 1 is not yet complete. There is additional content to be included from Seraph’s point of view (continuing from the flashback in episode 386), and the content is scheduled to be serialized tomorrow. In other words, you can think of the next episode as the true completion of Part 1.

2. Some people may be wondering, “Why didn’t this part come out?” in the epilogue. (For example, the part where Su-hyeon confesses the truth to her older brother.) That part is scheduled to continue in the form of a spin-off after Part 1 is completed tomorrow. This will be explained in detail in Part 3.

3. Originally, I was thinking of taking a break of about a month, but a writer I know said it was too long, so I shortened it to two weeks.

However, the timing became a bit ambiguous. If I take a two-week break after tomorrow’s series, I will have to start writing part 2 in early December. But my final exam is scheduled for December 14th. That means you have to prepare for the exam again then.

So, after completing Part 1 on November 15th (Friday), I plan to rest on the 16th (Saturday) and 17th (Sunday). And the side story is scheduled to be serialized from the 18th to the 30th. As there is a gap of about two years between Parts 1 and 2, we plan to cover the episodes in between, and each episode will be composed independently of each part.

4. The next episode concludes Part 1. I’m sorry to everyone, because I had a hard time keeping things in mind in October, so I wasn’t able to answer questions in messages or comments. Episode 393 will include a reply for all comments. If you ask a question, I will answer unconditionally as long as it is not a spoiler. (However, I will exclude comments containing lo*mi.)
