Chapter 372 – Relief Pitcher #2

Took.

I knocked on the inner wall of the bunker and let out an exclamation inwardly.
The facilities aren’t too bad.
It was covered inside and outside with an alloy of very high strength, and it seemed that it would be difficult to penetrate the attack of most monsters because it was located deep underground.

But that’s for humans.
From my point of view, this bunker was worse than a hut.
Except for polymers, all metals on Earth cannot withstand the attacks of A-class or higher monsters.
No matter how tight it is.

The inside of the bunker was very empty.
There were very few people compared to the size.
As a rule of thumb, 1,000 people can easily be accommodated, but if you exclude one public servant working at the food warehouse, there are only five.

It happened because there were too many bunkers.
It’s the result of pouring in a huge tax, but it’s worth praising for robbing the national treasury to live.

“Brother…”

I looked around the bunker in a slightly dim corner, but turned my head at Stella’s call.
She rolls her eyes.
There was nothing inside the bunker to see the outside, so it seemed uneasy.
There will be regret that you cannot see Sehwa who appeared with your own eyes.

I met her eyes with her, and I took off the hat I was wearing and put it on her head.
After that, when I grabbed the brim and lowered it, the placenta on my face was covered.

“It’s okay. It will be over soon.”

“Yeah… But why the hat…?”

Stella asked as she lifted her chin to gain sight.
Laughter leaks out But bear with it.
It’s an emergency situation with monsters appearing right now.

“No one can find out.”

“There’s no one here to recognize… There’s no one…”

It’s cute that he never takes off the hat I put on him even though he’s ticklish.
Your cheeks look a little flushed. What are you thinking?
Said Stella, who folded the blanket she had brought from the car.

“It’s cold… Isn’t it?”

“Then let’s get in the car.”

“Yes.”

He listens to our clumsy words… It’s so commendable.
I subtly put my arm around Stella’s shoulder, gave her a gentle massage and headed for her car.
Stella’s body contact was so bold that the side of her full breasts touched her ribs.
Even if it was an emergency when I held her hand in her car, it was a misunderstood situation, according to my thoughts now.

But Stella showed no reaction.
Rather, she even made it seem like she was trying to rest her head on my shoulder.
She didn’t go to the level of dependency, but it meant that she depended on me that much.

I, who was trying to put Stella in her car,

[End of situation. A monster squad is coming from the United Nations Korea branch and the Beast Slayer headquarters. After a while, when the bunker door opens, please leave.]

When I heard the announcement from inside the bunker, I smirked.

“Looks like it’s over.”

“It’s been less than an hour, already? Apparently, a huge monster was about to appear by the time we got here…”

“Just because you’re big doesn’t mean you’re strong.”

“That’s right… How long ago did you show up anyway? Isn’t it a very long time?”

“I know there was a hiatus for almost two months.”

“Are you starting to cross the earth again?”

The earth is already in my hands.
Shrugging my shoulders, I evaded the question.

“Well…”

“Ah… Something is missing.”

“What?”

“I wanted to see Leona…”

Can we see the fighting scene with the eyes of a mere human who has not even transformed?
When the situation was over, it was Stella who made a carefree noise.
But her wish will come true.

I jumped into the car and started the engine, but when the official who was listening to something with one hand over his ear brought his mouth to the microphone, his ears pricked up.

“For those arriving by car, you can leave as soon as the door opens. For those who came on foot, a transport plane is coming by subway, so please wait for a while. There’s green liquid everywhere on the road outside, it doesn’t matter if you step on it with your car’s tires. Don’t worry, it’s a harmless liquid.”

I spent a lot of money to build a bunker, but there is only one manager… I’m having a hard time.
I looked to the side and saw Stella trying to fasten her seatbelt with her hand covering the blanket.
When Stella reached out her hand in front of her and put her belt into her buckle, she laughed.
A cool smile with white teeth.
I said, smiling face to face.

“You can’t do this in front of other people. Curse me for being beaten.”

“Did you see me doing this in front of the CEO or Boyoung unnie?”

In other words, I was very comfortable.

“I didn’t see it.”

“Look. But brother You were very calm before the monster appeared earlier…”

“Why? Strange?”

“No. It’s trustworthy. Aren’t you going to be late for the meeting?”

“It’s tight, but… To be honest, it will pass. And since it’s a monster that appeared nearby, it’s sure to come up during the meeting. Don’t make a fuss and go quietly. Understand?”

“Yes.”

Cheekyung-!

While they were talking, the huge alloy door in front of them opened with a heavy sound.
The sky, which had become dark due to the appearance of the monster portal, became blue again.
As I was driving straight away, I saw an unpleasant green liquid that was quite viscous scattered around me.
Stella also found them and frowned.

“What is that…? It’s steaming…”

“It must be the blood of a monster.”

“A monster? Aren’t you a monster?”

It’s called a monster by the public, but the official name is a monster!
세계연합 개새끼들아, 너희들도 잘 알고 있잖아.
So don’t call me a monster, do some publicity!

“Yes, monster blood.”

“It’s disgusting… What if Leona got blood while fighting the monster? You must feel bad…”

Stop worrying about it and look upstairs.
Like the sea at a resort, the sparkling sky blue energy is still floating in the air.
Stella, who was looking around with her hand on the passenger side window, looked up at the sky as I wished.

“…. Uh?”

She bursts out her puzzled exclamation.
I think I saw Sehwa floating far away.
She then stretched only one arm behind her and began to beat me on the arm holding her steering wheel.

“Brother…! Brother!”

Hearing the urgent voice, he must have wanted to show it to me too.

“Why?”

“Now in the sky…”

It was the moment when Stella spoke her words in a voice recalled.

Whoaaah-!

The shimmering sky-blue aura spread like a wave into the air, and then a sky-blue thread-like thing descended from the center and followed the fast-moving vehicle.
As if it had an ego, it stopped near the passenger seat and almost scanned Stella.
Like a curious child.

This was an effect that was pre-determined through consultation with Sehwa.
In reality, it doesn’t mean anything, but it’s a pre-rice cake for Stella’s transformation.
And it was a directing that made you feel that the thread of fate was connected.

“Ah…!”

Seeing that reaction, I think it worked well.
Stella soon opened the passenger door and tried to touch her thread.
But in fact, it disappeared by the time her hand touched it.
This happened because Sehwa reaped his energy at the right timing.

“…..”

I couldn’t see Stella’s expression from the driver’s seat, but she must be regretting it.
I asked after slowing down.

“What in the sky?”

Stella, who suddenly came to her senses, looked up.
A very calm and clear sky.
Did he intuit that Leona was gone?
She leaned back on her back and pulled her blanket up to her neck.
With her complicated face, she muttered as she pondered something about her.

“What…?”

Well, Sehwa marked you as a colleague of destiny.
Confused, she turned to me and answered.

“No… Nothing.”

**

“Yes, brother. Came on time, Stella is fine too. The car is fine too.”

-I’m glad. According to the news, it’s S-class… Leona ran quickly and said there was no damage except for a few buildings? Have you seen the face of the monster?

“No. Come into the bunker before they show up. I saw Leona go to work.”

-Okay? How was it?

“It’s just a sky-blue halo shot toward the monster’s mouth.”

-Don’t you think we can use that as a topic?

I, who was on the phone with Choi Seung-hwan, was silent for a moment.

“…. Yes?”

-Isn’t it an opportunity to further raise awareness? Stella likes beast slayers, but she must have been excited by now since she saw Leona in person. I think it would be nice to use it for entertainment or news… How is it?

I have absolutely no business skills.
It’s now that monsters are being ridiculed and beast slayers are enjoying greater popularity than celebrities, but you shouldn’t say these things first.
I don’t like the fact that Stella is treated like a commodity.

“I am personally against it. It’s been a while since a monster appeared. It is obvious that the lost awareness will awaken again and the public will become sensitive. In the meantime, if we talk about Beast Slayer, I think our image will be diminished.”

It would be much better if I stayed still and later made an unofficial donation to the victims to cheer them up, and leaked information subtly to get them on the media…
You are blinded by greed, you pig.

-That makes sense. I get it. Our Jihyeok… Is alive?

Also, our Jihyeok… Is really behind.

“Thank you.”

– Like you said, let’s pretend it never happened. Take care and contact me right away if anything happens.

“Yes.”

After hanging up, I turned on the video clip of Leona sent by the doctor and waited for Stella.
Soon after, the door to the waiting room burst open, and Stella entered and sat helplessly on the sofa.
Bringing the bundle of papers she was holding, I held out her blanket and asked.

“Did the meeting go well?”

“Yes. We had a concept meeting and received the basic script.”

“Didn’t you mention the monster?”

“I came out, but it was a while. PD-nim and the staff asked me if I had seen it… But I pretended that I hadn’t seen it because I was sleeping. You were in a cold sweat from lying.”

“Well done.”

Stella’s face brightened.
She seemed happy to hear the compliment.
Stella rose from her seat with a blanket wrapped around her head like a hijab.

“This is the end of today’s schedule, right?”

“For now.”

“Then let’s go back quickly. I’m really tired today But what were you watching?”

“Leona battle video. It leaked for about 10 seconds, but I was checking it.”

“Gee, really…? I want to see…!”

Stella hurriedly reaches out with one hand to take my cell phone.
It’s funny how he holds onto the blanket so that it doesn’t fall.
I clicked her tongue and reluctantly put the phone in Stella’s hand.
She immediately started staring at her phone screen with her eyes wide open.

“Wow…!”

Occasionally, she bursts into high-pitched exclamation and replays the 10-second video several times.
She deliberately selected great scenes, and it seems to have worked.
If we add the sympathy with Sehwa that happened earlier here, Stella will go home today and disturb her sleep with all kinds of delusions.

It seems that now is the time for her to give the last device to the owner.
As for the timing, I think it would be perfect for an event in the province or when I come back after filming.
