Chapter 290 – Episode 290

Everyone has something they regret terribly as they live their lives.

It’s not necessarily because of mistakes or mistakes.

It was an action that I regretted as time passed, but at that moment it wasn’t a big mistake or mistake.

For example,

-I should have bought that coin then-

-I should sell that stock then-

-I should have helped you-

-I should have stopped you from going swimming alone-

-Don’t force me to go on a school trip if I don’t want to go-

-Don’t go to the military-

Etc.

People say they make the best choice at that moment,

In a world where each person’s life is swirling, there is no law that the best choice is necessarily a good choice.

An Min-seo was also like that.

Ahn Min-seo woke up this morning again with the sun shining, and she absentmindedly held her necklace in her hand.
To be exact, a pair of ruby ​​rings hanging on a necklace.

‘I should have taken Dojin to the lava field by force.’

‘No. If that were the case, Dojin would have been in danger in the lava field.’

‘Even if I had to break my promise with her friends, I should have teamed up with Dojin and her.’

‘If I had been with Dojin at that time…’

‘Dojin… Miss you…’

It’s been almost a month since I spent days filled with sobs and regrets.

After getting up from the now-familiar field barracks of the villain punitive force, she grooms herself and goes to her sister’s quarters.

Her older sister, Seo-yeon Ahn, was also assigned to a field barracks, and after spending some time doing some personal maintenance, she was waiting for her younger sister to visit.

“Are you here?”

“Huh. “Sister.”

“How are you feeling today?”

“It’s still not good. “I think I can sleep peacefully if I kill 10 villains again today.”

“… Okay. Don’t push yourself too hard.”

Ahn Min-seo was about to start her day’s work as usual, drinking the coffee that Ahn Seo-yeon gave her.

Then, she suddenly saw several photos placed on Ahn Seo-yeon’s simple desk.

“Sister. What are these?”

“… Ah, … This? One of my juniors joined the intelligence department that does monster-related reconnaissance.

Do you remember Jeong Ah-reum? She was a member of the Saints’ Department, but she graduated early this time and left.

One of his missions is monster-related reconnaissance and observation of abnormal signs…,

She said that she recently noticed a large proliferation of monsters and strange movements in Gangwon-do…,

You’re asking me for advice on what’s going on… But, I don’t know either.

Minseo, would you like to see it too? “You’re at the top of your grade, and you’re smart, so you might notice something when you look at it?”

“Hmm… Well.”

Ahn Min-seo didn’t have much interest, so she just skimmed through it.
When her older sister, Seo-yeon Ahn, asked, she just pretended to pay attention.

What is there to know about monsters?

In her mind now, there was only a desire for revenge against the villains who turned Kim Do-jin into a corpse whose body was difficult to find.

Human beings were more of a problem than monsters or ghosts.

An Min-seo glanced at the reconnaissance photos and was momentarily shocked when he saw the name of the area where the photo was taken.

It was now a very familiar, yet unpleasant regional name.

“… Sister… What about this area?”

“… Huh? Ah…, Uh…, … Okay. That area. … “The place where the military hospital where Do-jin died is located.”

“…”

An Min-seo lost his words.

The neighborhood where Kim Do-jin died.

It was a cursed neighborhood.

But contrary to my feelings, I have now become a little interested in these photos.

An Min-seo looked more closely at satellite reconnaissance photos and high-magnification aerial reconnaissance photos.

In the neighborhood where Dojin died.

What is going on?

‘… Huh?’

Is it because I keep thinking about Kim Do-jin?

She saw something strange in one of the high-resolution aerial reconnaissance photos.

It was a very subtle shadow that everyone could easily pass by.

An extremely minute part of a photo that may not be more than a few pixels.

Min-seo Ahn saw something strange here.

‘… Foot. It looks like the shadow of a boy’s legs. The sight was obscured by the trees, but the shadow was reflected…, Boy’s legs? Where there are monsters… ? Hmm…, Kidnapping a boy just to use it as a scapegoat for monsters that can be found anywhere? But why…, Why am I so nervous… ? The shadow of this bridge looks like…, The curves…’

“Minseo, are you okay?”

“Huh? Why, why… ?”

“Your whole body is shaking right now. What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to rest today?”

“No, no. … That’s not the important issue now. Sister, here…, Where exactly? “I have to go here now.”

“… Huh? Why are you suddenly… ? I noticed something about this photo… ?”

“Maybe it’s my imagination, maybe, but I need to get here right now. Certainly. Reason tells me it’s just an illusion, but my intuition tells me to run here right now. “I have to go.”

“… What’s wrong with you? “You should at least explain the reason to me.”

“I think Dojin is alive.”

“…”

“…”

“… Minseo, you…, Phew…, No. …, No, but… Still, I have to say this. Minseo, let Dojin go now. Already…”

“Sister. I’m not crazy. I’m out of my mind.

… I just came up with a strong hypothesis, so please listen to me a little.

Don’t be prejudiced that I’m crazy, but listen without any prejudice. Please.

You said that monsters suddenly multiplied here in large numbers, right? Don’t you remember what Dojin’s representative ability is?

Why was the country so shocked when Dojin died?

Why did the stocks of baby product companies plummet as soon as the news of Dojin’s death became known?

“Don’t you remember why the Ministry of Health and Welfare denied the reality that Dojin died?”

“… Kim Do-jin’s representative ability? Kim Do-jin’s representative ability is that crazy and overwhelming ability to conceive…, Multiple pregnancy capacity… Even if thousands or tens of thousands of pregnancy mana links were created…, No way… ?”

“…”

“…”

“…, Sister. This is a possibility… ?”

“Uh… You know…”

Seoyeon Ahn and Minseo Ahn.

These two sisters informed the villain punitive force headquarters that something urgent came up and that they would not be able to take charge of their work for a while.

The headquarters approved the request as soon as they received the report, as it was a request from Sister Ahn, who had achieved remarkable achievements, and she was a bit free these days.

The academy’s female students and faculty, including Sister Ahn and Ji-eun Lee, who were shocked by Kim Do-jin’s death, were grinding down the villains as if they were slaughterhouse machines, which is why the seeds of nearby villains were dried up.

#

The time when Sister Ahn left the villain punitive force.

Ji-eun Lee clicked her tongue when she heard the news at the strategic meeting and briefing location this morning.

Like other people who have already left among the people,

As his desire for revenge gradually subsided, rumors emerged that he had left because life in the field was difficult.

Lee Ji-eun also thought similarly.

‘Is that enough in the end, Sister An’s bitches? In the end, I guess I was the only one who truly cared about Dojin. He always acts condescending towards me on such topics. She’s probably been mad at me because she’s still holding on to her pride for no reason. Next time I see you, I’ll be so embarrassed that I won’t be able to make eye contact. Or do you rather shamelessly lose your temper?’

Just like her, she is always on the lookout for danger and kills off her villains her, so she was about to acknowledge the achievements of her An sisters And her of.
The Ahn sisters left, perhaps because the hard life in the field barracks was difficult, or because they only had so much love for Do-jin.

She left, saying that she couldn’t take on the job because something urgent came up, but

This was the excuse used by most of the people who left the villain subjugation team.

After doing this, they do not return for more than a week or 10 days, and then send a registered mail asking for formal permission to leave in writing.

“Tsk.”

In the first place, they were not conscripted like the military,

Since it was a villain punitive force formed purely out of support and resources, it was difficult to prevent such defects.

Moreover, even the villain punitive force headquarters, which is supposed to actively block such departures by dismissing them as desertion, is quietly aiding and abetting them by saying that they have no work to do these days.

As a result, it seemed like the number of departures would gradually increase.

Perhaps they were planning to disband the villain punitive force at some point by increasing the number of defectors.

‘Maybe you received instructions from above? Do you want me to leave? 안씨 자매 년들은 권력의 개새끼들이니까. Seo-yeon Ahn is in the congregational club, and Min-seo Ahn is in the student council. It looks like two sisters are trying to eat everything together.’

Church members and student council.

They are the two major axes of power within the academy,

From outside the academy, it was a place where juniors with ambitions for power gathered.

Just as people’s personalities rarely change,

Usually, children who join these two groups show off their ambition even when they go out into society and always aim for high positions and power.

As a result, people from the Seongdobu took the military route to power,

Those from the student council tended to take the civilian route, such as politicians.

What they both have in common is that they want to become powerful figures in the future.

And to achieve that, it was necessary to listen carefully to the words of those in power.

She was in a different position from Lee Ji-eun herself, who was in the revolutionary circle and could shout “Fuck that shit.”

‘I will not leave until the end until I am officially told to leave.’

Ji-eun Lee promised that,

She was always there in the morning and after listening to the not-so-nutritious morning briefing,

She saw a text message on her cell phone.

[Asshole female goblin cobbong]

When Kim Do-jin was alive, the Kobong Goblin would inform him of Kim Do-jin’s movements and information every day.

The female goblin whom Kim Do-jin had been exploiting with money sent her a text message for the first time a month after Kim Do-jin’s death.

In order to check the contents of her text, Ji-eun Lee placed her finger to unlock her smartphone.
