Chapter 33 – Chapter 3 – Cold
“It’s sorted out somehow.”
He subdued all the people who were bitten by the monster and had similar symptoms.
No matter how much they lost their sanity due to blood ties, they were ordinary people until just now.
It takes a little time to subdue without getting hurt, but it’s not that difficult.
“Human…? Now, what should they do?”
“After the boat touches the ground, I’ll contact the Murim Meng. Until then, tie it up like that. In case there’s a problem with your body.”
Although they were tied tightly with a rope, they decided to keep an eye on them in preparation for an unexpected situation.
Unfortunately, there seemed to be no one who had learned martial arts on this ship, so there was no choice.
“Hey, over there… The adult lady…”
“Hey?! What is he doing now?”
“Huh?”
When I turned to where the voice came from, I saw a woman holding her child with a puzzled look on her face.
“Will my father be safe?”
The girl, who looked like she was not yet 10 years old, was looking at me with innocent eyes as if I hadn’t seen her subdue the monster before.
“Yes. It will be all right.”
“Really?”
“I’m not going to lie. I’ll take responsibility and send you back to you and your mother, so just listen carefully.”
“Go, thank you!”
Her child returned in her woman’s arms.
‘After..’
How long has it been since you made such an irresponsible promise?
On the battlefield, there were numerous people who made such irresponsible promises that they were not confident of keeping.
That she would definitely come back, that she couldn’t die leaving her companion behind, or that we’d have a drink after the fight.
In the end, only a few promises were kept.
‘..Blood bridge..’
Did you dare to come back after doing something like that 20 years ago?
-Kkadeuk
She must have thought that she was all destroyed by her Heavenly Demon that day, but it seems that she was really persistent and managed to save her life somehow.
Although I was lethargic the day before, I will not be taken lightly this time.
I won’t lose my precious things this time.
‘..But I feel like I forgot something.’
I had a lot of things to think about because suddenly something so big happened.
As if something important had happened before that.
‘…?!’
I realized that I had left him alone in the storage room.
I hurriedly glanced over the ship to see if he had come up, but I couldn’t see him.
“..Look! I’ll leave the knife here, so you can scream out loud if something happens! I’ll be right back!”
“Yes, yes?!”
I hurried down to the warehouse where he was.
I had dealt with all the monsters, so he wouldn’t be dangerous, but for some reason, the thought of going down quickly dominated my body.
– Jump!
“Are you safe?!”
When I hurriedly opened the door, I saw a creature curled up and shivering in the corner of the warehouse.
– Rattling
“…Is it Sozer?”
“..What are you doing now?”
– Wow!
He quickly got up and came to me.
“Sojeo? Sojeo, right? Someone else, right?”
“Now, wait a minute, if you stick too much…”
“What should I do if he doesn’t come even after waiting for a long time because he said he’ll come right away… I was so scared alone…”
I felt a strange sensation through his cloak clinging to me.
“Oh, let it fall!”
“If you let go, you’ll leave it alone again!”
“No! It’s over! We’re safe now!”
‘So get down! ‘
I forcibly dropped him, who was clinging to me, as I held him by the pods in his hands.
If this is the case, it will only lead to an embarrassing situation for each other.
“..Are you really safe now?”
“Yes, yes. The rampaging monster has been subdued, so now it’s time to return to the mainland.”
Perhaps because he was wet, his body odor was stronger.
The feeling I felt when I was stuck came back to me.
‘Hey, calm down. You are a rogue Dosa’s stupid thoughts…’
“Then, it looks like your clothes are almost dry, so let’s change and go up.”
“Huh? Oh, okay. I’m going out for a while.”
After closing the warehouse door again, he was swinging his sword at the wild imaginary crowd, as if he had reached puberty belatedly.
I suppressed my emotions as much as possible.
If you keep feeling like this, you’ll be able to feel him even change his clothes.
-Tump-thump-thump-thump
‘What the hell does this mean to a man with no face or name!’
It didn’t make sense unless I was so immersed in lung training that I had problems with interpersonal skills.
‘Calm down. Now is not the time to indulge in just this.’
The demons also need to pay attention, and they need to find out about the traces of blood ties that have appeared right away.
It means that we have to go find the person who is presumed to be the child who was the original purpose of coming out, and there is a mountain of work to do.
‘That’s why you should keep your distance right now..’
-Kikkik
“It’s still a little wet, but I think I can wear it. Now, let’s go. If we’re not on top, people might feel anxious for no reason.”
He came out dressed properly.
“..Egg plant.”
As I walked along with him, I kept repeating in my mind the need to keep my distance from him, organizing what I was going to say to him in my head.
“And sozer.”
As he was about to sort things out, he opened his mouth again.
“I can’t help it now, but if possible, please don’t leave me alone. It’s scary.”
– Took
Something was about to break in my head.
“Whoa…”
It was really dangerous.
He almost crossed the irreparable river.
Even now, it’s still dangerous, but if you’re not careful, you could do something really big…
“Still, I am always grateful to Sojeo.”
“…”
..Anyway, it seems that the fable deungseon is wrong.
* * *
“Cough… Cough…”
Oh, just don’t wear wet clothes.
I was now lying sick in my room alone.
After getting off the ship yesterday, he went somewhere, saying he had something to do.
‘Liar..’
He said he would come back soon, but seeing that he still hasn’t returned, I wonder if I can trust him.
There were two days left until the day I was supposed to stay in Hanam, and I felt like I was going to die of pity when I lay down like this.
‘I’m dizzy…’
However, it was not at all possible to ignore the condition of the body and go outside to play.
I struggled to pick up the water bottle because of my burning thirst, but
– Jjoreuk
“Collock…”
It ran out of water.
This is why I didn’t want to be alone.
‘A guy who really can’t do anything alone.’
The body is weak, there is no chance of becoming strong because there is no short circuit, and the ability to see the future that can be used is not able to see the future of one’s own.
There was really nothing I could do alone.
“Kellock…”
Come to think of it, since I fell into this world without knowing why, there was hardly a time when I was alone.
Before meeting Master, I was alone, but after meeting Master, I was together for 10 years.
Even after Master entered the closing ceremony and ran away, I stayed with Dang Ah-yeong in Shaanxi.
And I was able to understand it because yesterday’s events and the current situation are the same.
‘I guess I hated being alone.’
The fear of having to live alone for the next three years also played a significant role in why Master ran away as soon as he entered the lung training.
Because I had nothing but terrible memories of being alone in this world.
“Collock…”
‘So when will this person come..!’
It wasn’t a fatal disease, but I couldn’t help but feel the pain.
I was still sick, but being alone made me feel sad and sick.
‘Just go to Anhui.
You agreed to stay with me and left me alone like this after a day
It will stick around like a leech.

– Pat-tak-tak-tak
Deep in the mountains, a woman with golden hair, rare in midfield, was grilling her meat over a fire.
Gyeonggukji color. The sight of a woman who could literally shake up her country, grilling meat with her beautiful hands, made the viewer feel strange, but surprisingly, her womanly skill was considerable.
Her flame was exquisitely regulating the temperature, cooking her meat evenly, as if her fire were following her.
“Cough… Cough…”
Inside the house, a soft male cough could be heard.
“Now that’s it.”
-Wickedness
Her woman waved her hand lightly, and her flame died in an instant, leaving only a very small ember.
“Now, it’s done, so eat.”
The woman handed her cooked meat to the lying boy.
Her boy looked at her with her dumbfounded eyes.
“Master… What does meat mean to a patient..”
“In the first place, there is nothing better than meat to restore energy. In the end, illness is caused by loss of energy. Replenishment of energy is the best medicine.”
“Other than that… Is there anything like porridge? It’s hard to swallow that now…”
“This hurts, so you’re really treating your teacher well.”
The woman sighed, put down her meat, and headed for her stove.
– Hwareuk!
Clearly, there were no embers left, but in an instant, a new ember was kindled, and the flames continued to rise.
-Widely!
“Are you done now?”
After a while, the woman brought steaming porridge.
“..I have no strength in my hands..”
“If you ask for food, I’ll pass it from mouth to mouth, so don’t think about taking care of the master any more.”
“..You should eat it too.”
The boy’s hand, struggling to hold the spoon, was trembling.
At this rate, it was almost as clear as water that even if porridge was cooked, it would spill here and there.
“Haa.. Just give it to me.”
“I can eat…”
“I’m just doing it because I think leaving you like this will be more annoying. You cheeky guy.”
The woman took the spoon from her boy’s hand, scooped out the gruel, and then blew and put it into her boy’s mouth.
“..Thank you.”
“When you have time to say that, just go to bed. It’s more helpful for you to get better quickly.”
“From tomorrow onwards, I will…”
-Cool…
The boy was speechless and fell asleep.
“He’s weak. He couldn’t stand it and got sick.”
The woman looked at him asleep for a long while, then covered him with a blanket and came out.
The rising moon today is Sanghyeon.
Maybe the herb will bloom.
