Relife Player 151(b)
[Chapter 052]
[The day when the wind does not rain (15)]
Why did I become the twelfth seat?
Shin Seo-yeong looked down at the troops desperately guarding Uijeongbu Station and retreating towards Hoeryong Station.
because I want to protect
The advisor answered.
The reason I wanted to become a player remained in my heart like a lump.
she doesn’t believe
That you can’t save everyone.
hope nonetheless
I want to save many people.
That was his pride and ideal that he did not let go of until the very end, even while compromising with reality.
And it was because of him that she was able to reclaim an ideal she had once let go of.
Changhae Clanlord Gil Seong-jun.
The only person in this world who can understand you.
A person who had the same ideals as himself, and a person who became a light in a dark tunnel.
“…brother.”
That’s why she had tears in her eyes as she watched him retreat with his clanmates.
‘Wasn’t it difficult during that time?’
When the ideal of protecting people became an arrow that pierced himself.
He was the one who reached out his hand in despair.
‘don’t cry. Why are you crying?’
‘There is something I want to do.’
‘I have a lot of work to do.’
‘Will you help me?’
he said.
don’t give up
pointed the way
The way we weren’t wrong.
“—Brother, what are you doing right now?”
Landing in front of Gil Seong-jun, she created several gusts of wind behind her back.
The retreating unit stopped running when a sudden gust of wind blocked the road.
“What! What are you doing right now!” “Changhae Clan Sublord! Get out of the way! Are you all going to die now!”
“We will live! We will live!”
The hostility of the players exploded.
The energy of killing monsters overflowed in the unit and pressed her down.
Nevertheless, she did not succumb to their hostility and glared at Gil Seong-jun.
“Aren’t you going to return right away?” “…Seo Young-ah.”
Seongjun Gil called in a calm voice.
She didn’t lose her expression at the sound of his call. She raised her eyes with strength, and she unleashed mana that could not be defeated by the players’ hostility.
“You know. The people who remain cannot stop the army approaching from three directions.
Not three sides. What about the guy wearing a human mask? can he deal with?
no, i can’t Then they will all die.”
“So, you’re going to disobey the order and defeat the army?
Enemies who could invade Seoul, as well as Hoeryong Station, dragging that army down?”
“…”
“You know. We are players. Not heroes who save people, but players who put our interests first.”
I was speechless.
I was out of breath.
It was hard to breathe.
A player, a being whose profit comes first.
She couldn’t deny that.
I couldn’t deny it, but I didn’t expect to hear it through his mouth.
“How… can my brother say such a thing?” “…Seoyeong-ah. Stop looking at reality now.”
“what?” “Who are we now?
I don’t know what you mean? We have a lot to lose now. If you stumble even one step, the ones coming up from below will bite you, and your possessions may be taken away.”
“…wasn’t.”
I couldn’t keep my face covered in evil.
Tears flowed.
It wasn’t.
Why did he and himself join the Changhae Clan and come to this position?
Why did he make the Changhae Clan the second largest clan in Korea?
It was to have the power to save people from monsters and protect precious people, but it wasn’t like that.
“Seoyoung-ah, we have to retreat here. If we retreat to Hoeryong Station now, we will face criticism, but we can promise the next time. We can maintain the status of the Changhae Clan.”
no, bro
That’s not what I wanted to protect.
Wiping the tears with the back of her hand, she shook her head.

Seongjun Gil grabbed her shoulder with an incomprehensible look.
“Should we be reborn as the best in Korea? Huh? Until when will you be satisfied with the second place, huh?
It’s a huge loss, but we’re not alone. If we maintain our forces even now, we can aim for a chance to rebound.” “… no, that’s not it.”
“Why? Didn’t you want to be the best too?”
“…Brother, I told you many times. I want to protect people with the power of the Changhae Clan.”
“…To protect something, you need to have strength to protect it. So, you have to retreat and maintain even the remaining strength?”
She always shook her head.
What I want to protect is not a seat.
It’s not honor.
not power
What I want to protect is a person.
They are people who persevere even in despair.
They are children who hope to become adults and wait for tomorrow to come.
“I fully understand your feelings.”
no. brother don’t know
“It will be difficult for you and me for a while.
Let’s hold on though. huh?
Just like the day we swore.”
The oath we made was to protect as many people as possible.
“…Brother, you have changed.”
Gil Seong-jun’s face twisted.
He strained her hand enough to make her frown.
“I understand you’re having a hard time. I know why you’re doing it.” “No, my brother doesn’t know.” “I don’t know why. You’re having a hard time.”
“…”
She opened her eyes wide.
she could tell
that he truly understands himself.
But why
Why do you say you want to retreat?
She really wondered if he understood her.
But the look in his eyes was sincere.
I was really understanding myself.
It was the gaze of a person who had saved himself from despair.
“We’re not going to retreat without thinking. If we align our forces at Hoeryong station and gather troops, we can respond to the military force.”
“…”
“You believe me? When did you see me lie?”
“But, if we retreat like this…”
What he said was not wrong.
The idea that Hoeryong Station might collapse was too extreme.
It was also possible to counter the military force in the last bastion.
However, the situation of welcoming the army without proper combat power will unfold.
Many will die.
in the process of retreating.
even after retreating.
“That’s it.” “…what?”
“That’s why the troops remaining at Uijeongbu Station have to buy as much time as possible.”
“What are you talking about?”
“If we retreat like you think, we won’t have time to respond properly at Hoeryong station.
So the people guarding Uijeongbu Station should buy as much time as possible. We are realigning our forces in the meantime.”
“Why… did you decide on your own?” “Otherwise, would any unit want to stay there?”
Shin Seo-young looked at the people over his shoulder.
All of them were screaming to get out of the way with grim faces.
Dangun Clanlord Jang Bong-jeon urged him not to disobey the order as he commanded the unit.
It wasn’t even funny.
Among the people gathered here, the person with the highest command authority is himself, the Twelve Seated.
“So Seoyoung, you and us…”
It was when Gil Seong-joon tried to comfort her, who was at a loss for words because of her absurdity.
[This is a message from Yang Hee-jeong, the first navigator of Shilla Clan, Unit C of the Uijeongbu Recapture Team!
At 11:37, the 3rd tier monster, Siren Glider, has disappeared!
We spread it once again. current time… .]
The good news flowed.
And it was in an instant that the sad news flowed.
[We spread the message of Noh Ho-yeong, navigator of Uijeongbu Recapture Unit A, Myungwang Clan!
At 11:43 in the present time, a monster with an army of the dead appeared west of Uijeongbu Station.
As of this time, we will declare the monster as a third-tier threat and temporarily name it Death Cat!]
[Uijeongbu Recapture Unit E Troop Regulus Clan Cynthia Navigator spreads the message.
Currently at 11:50, a 4th tier overrank monster has been confirmed to appear in the east of Uijeongbu Station.
The 4th tier overrank monster is… .]
[This is Myeong Chae-hyun, a telepathist of the Dangun Clan in Unit E of the Uijeongbu Recapture Unit.
This is the report of the Dangun clan navigator Kim Moo-hak.
At 11:51, the presence of 4th tier overrank monsters was confirmed in the direction the troops were moving south.
The 4th tier overrank monster is… .]
Players became contemplative.
After defeating the 3rd tier monsters, I wondered if the war situation would improve a little, but high tier monsters appeared one after another.
Above all, even in the direction they are moving south.
“Shin Seo-young!”
Hearing the telepathic messages in his head, Seongjun Gil shouted at her.
“From now on, we will break through the army coming from below and retreat to Hoeryong Station.
Don’t worry about the down side. We’ll do something.” “… … .”
“So, Seoyoung, you… take over the top. While you block the troops descending from Uijeongbu Station, I’ll bring the cheerleaders as soon as I arrive at Hoeryong Station…”
“…”
“Seoyeong-ah. We have to save people, right? If we do this, not only those above but also those below could die.”
She looked at him, his face distorted horribly.
Gil Seong-joon was straining his eyes as he explained his plan step by step.
“I understand everything. It will be difficult to stop the troops descending. It will be difficult, but if Seoyoung is you, you can do it.” “…”
The man she knows is nowhere to be found.
Still, he was understanding.
Listening to what he had to say made my weary heart feel comforted.
“You must come back alive. This ring was given to me in that sense.”
He touched her ring.
she lowered her gaze
There was a ring he had given her as a gift saying that he understood and loved her.
“love.”
Gil Seong-jun kissed her on the forehead. After encouraging her, he led her troops south of her.
She caressed the ring endlessly as the unit moved away.
“…”
I want to protect people.
Swallowing her tears, she summoned the wind.
The wind blew.
like crying
