MEMORIZE Chapter 883

00883 All That Glitters Is Not Gold, Three. ————————————————– ———————-=

A late afternoon.

“Is it a little quieter now?”

I muttered as I looked out at the city from the terrace. The sun has already set, and the twilight sky is soaked in black paint that is gradually mixing and spreading. Street lights installed here and there turn on one by one, illuminating the dark city.

It’s still too early to go to bed, but the city of distant lights is quiet rather than busy. The noise that is occasionally heard quickly disappears like gently rippling waves. Just a few days ago, it was noisy from morning to evening, but I guess it has calmed down a bit. This must be proof that the angel was that good at persuasion.

However, it has merely subsided and cannot be considered a peaceful atmosphere. If you listen carefully, there are times when the noise that was gradually fading suddenly stops. At that moment, the silence everywhere feels infinitely eerie and gloomy.

It feels like even the air is holding its breath. But it’s not unfamiliar. It’s a rather familiar feeling as I’ve experienced it several times. Yes, war clouds are hanging over the city.

Looking back, I don’t know how the few days passed by. As I prepared frantically, the departure date was quickly approaching. At least it seemed appropriate to have a simple celebration at dinner.

Thanks to the angel, we were able to prepare quickly, but not everything went smoothly. A minor problem arose when announcing internal appointments. Although Jegal Hae-sol and Cha Hee-young were dissatisfied with the participation conditions, they were able to be organized with leading clan authority. Should I say it is a kind of flexibility?

The one who was actually caught was Mar. There were no separate restrictions on residents, but that was a different issue. Skills aside, it was absurd to take a child with no experience in expeditions, let alone war. So I was against it at first.

However, because he expressed his intention to participate so strongly and Nimu also offered to go along, he was eventually allowed to do so. He thought a lot about it, but he couldn’t break Mar’s will. Actually, I didn’t even have any expectations. I don’t know what it would actually be like, but the two fairies’ participation was an unexpected harvest.

Anyway, I don’t know if it’s perfect, but I think I prepared as much as I could. All that’s left now is to gather tomorrow and leave.

What are the clan members doing? If you are thinking, you may have taken a break early, or if you are feeling restless, you may be taking care of your equipment. And I… .

My heart is strangely calm. As the final war approaches, he is strangely calm. She must have waited so long, so why?

It’s still too early to go to bed. That’s why I’m standing there blankly, so should I go find my brother, should I go find Seraph, should I go down to the first floor, or should I contact Lee Hyo-eul to see how the preparations for the defensive battle are going?

Many thoughts pass through my mind in an instant. But soon he shook his head and took out a cigarette. Everyone has their own work to do, so there’s no need to disturb them.

So, it would be a good choice to enjoy the battle alone for today.

*

After a quiet dawn, the day of the march finally dawned.

It was a clear, clear morning with flowing white clouds. However, the castle was very busy preparing for departure. When I came down wearing the gear I had cleaned last night, all the clan members had already gathered in the garden.

One strange thing is that Jeong Ha-yeon is getting angry with three or four people standing in front of her.

“I really can’t survive. What if you do as you please?”

The three or four people who were scolded were Ahn Hyeon, An Sol, Jin Su-hyeon, and Lee Yu-jeong. Everyone is muttering with their heads down as if something had happened again.

“Is there a problem?”

“oh. Su-hyun?”

Ha-yeon Jeong looked at me in surprise. The voice that had been sharp until a moment ago suddenly quieted down.

“Huyu.”

Jeong Ha-yeon glanced at the four people and sighed, then slowly raised her right arm.

“It’s because of this.”

In his hand, he holds a small, pretty bag studded with jewels. It’s a baby Chaos Mimic.

“As Suhyeon knows, Chaos Mimic’s storage space is very large, right?”

“yes. But what?”

“So I put away my camping gear neatly, but they took things out and put things in as they pleased.”

“And what about camping gear?”

“I checked that I put it in another backpack. But why are you adding more luggage? “I have to carry three more things that can be done with just one.”

“… Really?”

As I looked away, the four of them also looked away at the same time. It’s true. I told them to be ready to leave as soon as they came down, but it seems they were slowing down because of this.

“What is the current gathering situation?”

“I just got a call~. Istantel Law says he has already arrived at Dana, and Hamill says he will stop by Halo for a while. “It looks like the rest are also on their way to the warp gate.”

As I look around and ask, Ko Yeon-ju’s languid voice answers from somewhere.

The primary gathering area is Dana, a small city on the former Northern Continent. As the city is located in the southeast direction, it is the best starting point for heading to the eastern continent.

Anyway, I was amazed at Han So-young’s speed, but I couldn’t stay still like this. What a shame if you make a mistake and are late. You can pack up your luggage later when you have time, so it’s better to go right away.

“You four.”

The four of them trembled as they quietly opened their mouths. Four pairs of fear-filled eyes reluctantly look at me. She had her arms around Jeong Ha-yeon, but her face looked complicated.

“Since you did it on your own, you will have to carry the backpack, right?”

At that moment, the four people’s complexions brightened.

“yes!”

“of course!”

A loud shout follows. It would be better to do it like this. I’ve already been scolded once and I haven’t even started, so there’s no need to discourage me.

I tilted my chin and the four of them grabbed their backpacks one by one with smiling faces as if they had never done that before. The baby Chaos Mimic in question was picked up by Ansol. And she said.

“lol. “I hope we meet the enemy soon.”

Although I was talking to myself, I couldn’t believe my ears for a moment. Because I wondered if this was the Ansol I knew. However, Ansol was already busy preparing to turn her body, and in the end, she had no choice but to tilt her head. What did she prepare to do that?

… Well, let’s ask as we go. First of all, it’s important not to be late.

“As soon as you are ready, please gather at the main gate. “I think we should go right away.”

In fact, it is difficult to view this time as a strategy or expedition. Even though a mission message appears, it doesn’t change the fact that we are going to war. Even clan members know this.

Nevertheless, the atmosphere was similar to usual. Everyone prepares and moves with bright faces as if they are going on an expedition. I don’t know if it was intentional, but for some reason I felt grateful.

So, I did the same.

Come with me sometime.

Finally, just before departure, someone slowly approached.

“User Seungwoo Cho?”

“Clan Lord.”

Seungwoo Cho spoke slightly slurredly and scratched his head. The eyes tremble quietly and the mouth repeatedly flutters. Although he is not part of the group, since he signed up as a non-combat user to begin with, he shouldn’t have to feel too awkward.

As I stared at him, he suddenly took a deep breath and smiled shyly.

“I will protect the clan well.”

“yes. “I trust you will take care of it.”

“Oh, and!”

“… … ?”

Just as I was about to turn, a hurried voice caught me.

“I believe I will be able to see you again this time with peace of mind.”

“this time?”

“I thought you died once last time. So this mission is to come back clean. haha.”

“Oh, yes. “Of course.”

I was curious what he was going to say, but he just smiled and nodded. It’s not like we’re breaking up forever, and the greetings we exchanged yesterday at the festival are enough.

I said, looking at the wide open front door.

“Then let’s leave.”

I went straight through the main gate while being seen off by the remaining clan members. We were able to reach our destination in a short period of time, perhaps on foot, almost at a speed similar to that of a forced march.

Murmur.

Several users had already gathered at the warp gate in the southern city, forming a cloud-like crowd. However, only the surrounding area is crowded, and the road to the warp gate is actually open. They must have been busy with the defense of the western continent, but I think I took some time to look around.

Of course, I heard whispers and cheering occasionally, but I crossed the road at a fast pace. I climbed the gray stairs without hesitation and stopped in front of the blue portal. It was then.

“!”

Just as I was about to go in without thinking, I stopped without realizing it. I immediately turned around. It was almost a reflex action. Because it felt like I suddenly heard my name being called from somewhere.

But no matter how much I looked, I couldn’t find it. Only the clan members are staring at me.

“For sure… .”

weird. Why do I suddenly feel empty? I feel like I forgot something important… .

“Su-hyun? What’s wrong?”

Go Yeon-ju, who was right behind him, tilted his head.

“ah… .”

“Su-hyun?”

I checked all directions carefully one more time and then shook my chin.

“No, it’s nothing.”

“… “Are you really okay?”

Go Yeon-ju, who spoke with concern, suddenly fiddled with the necklace around her neck. It was an action that seemed meaningless, but for some reason it caught her eye. If you look closely, how many months ago was it? This was the necklace I gave myself when I went to the streets at night.

But why did you bring it? I’m not the type of person to wear something cumbersome, and as far as I know, it doesn’t have any efficacy related to combat.

I looked at the black diamond reflecting the yo-yo light for a moment, then looked at the front of the road. And then I slowly entered the portal where the light waved.

After a while, my vision was filled with white light.

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

When I read the comments yesterday, I burst out laughing for the first time in a while.

Lee Yu-jeong’s behavior in the last episode was no different from her lover swiping his card arbitrarily.

Personally, I think it’s a great analogy. haha. 🙂

But for some reason, some people couldn’t help but laugh because it felt like an experience… . ;cow;

P.S. To Him. Sorry for being a day late. I sincerely wish you a happy birthday. 😀
