Chapter 546 – Revenge or Ignorance

They both know without saying anything.

The fact that Roman won’t be angry makes me feel even more guilty.

Even if a problem arises because of this, Roman will solve it.

This form of leaning on such kindness has been constricting my heart.

“Roman…”

“Honey…”

Alice and Atra entered the café with a hushed voice.

The family’s attention was focused on that strange incident.

Roman and his wives jumped up from the table and approached the two.

“What’s going on?”

I thought it would be okay for women to move around comfortably as they have outstanding abilities, but maybe she was complacent?

Roman’s expression as he continued his hypothesis was as stiff as ever.

“Well, Alice did a good job of handling it, but I couldn’t get rid of her habit in the end.”

“No! I tried too hard first and made a mistake -!

They are seen fighting each other, saying it is their fault.

Roman and his wives felt a little lighter because it didn’t seem to be as serious as they thought.

“Let’s sit down first.”

I hold Atra and Alice’s hands and return to their seats.

As I quenched my thirst with a drink and waited, Atra and Alice spoke while pursing their lips.

“The last time I saw him, he went with Alice to rescue the dolls trapped in the box…”

Box, doll and rescue.

Roman heard the three words and remembered the object that Atra was interested in.

“Drawing doll?”

“Ah, yes! That was the name!”

“Yeah. So?”

When Roman asked back with a smile, the two continued to explain the situation.

Atra and Alice seemed to think that the point of their mistake was that they used divine power in front of people from another world, but Roman doesn’t care.

This is where I end up giving compliments.

“As expected, Atra is a born saint. She did a good job.”

“Well, I agree with what Roman said. It’s great.”

“I heard you’re really nice.”

The point was that he gave good will as a priority without considering the details.

Roman said no and held Atra’s hand as she shook her head.

I also looked at Alice, who was quiet.

“Alice did a good job too. I’m glad I didn’t lose my fist in that situation.”

“Ugh, sorry…”

“It’s something to be praised for, so there’s nothing to be sorry about. I didn’t kill him, and I resolved the issue neatly. Is Tero okay?”

– Hiss!

Roman shook his head as he and his wife comforted the two dispirited people.

‘Special Forces Department… There’s something like that?’

It is right that we should praise these two people.

Since this is the name of a group I have never heard of before, its credibility is low.

Even if it’s a real name, I can’t be sure if it’s really a group targeting ghosts.

In this world where guns are considered the best when it comes to violence between individuals, I can’t believe I met not one, but two such people.

Knowing the ghosts and the beings behind them was very valuable information in itself.

‘I can see Tero…’

There were one by one passer-by who pretended not to see the haunted ghost.

Is it the same texture as that?

As Roman was creating a chain of information in his head, Atra turned over the hand that was touching her, clasped her hands, and spoke.

“Honey, there’s something that’s bothering me.”

“Huh?”

“The power they use is a bit…”

“Were you using mana?”

“No. I wouldn’t have worried if I had just used mana.”

Atra’s expression when mentioning the topic is not dejected, but serious.

Roman, facing sky blue eyes, listened intently to the story.

··

··

After listening to the story to the end, Roman furrowed his eyebrows in question.

“Why vitality?”

“Yes. I saw it too. So it was fascinating.”

When Atra’s story ends, Alice nods as if she had been waiting.

“Hmm…”

There is a strong feeling that attacks using vitality are often called Donggwijin.

The realization that Alice didn’t smash her wrist for no reason.

‘This is a case where you have no mana or strength, but you use your life force as strength.’

It was a very, very rare case.

‘But it’s not like it doesn’t exist.’

Roman remembers hearing this while living as an adventurer.

A story about a farmer who doesn’t know how to use mana at all and uses her life force to defeat a hobgoblin that invaded her village.

He survived that day, but his weak body, which had not been able to eat properly, quickly withered away and withered away, and he died after not surviving for a month.

Regardless of rumors, I have personally seen many similar cases.

Like this, experiencing the risk of death or being in a crisis situation is the key.

There are cases where the primal energy called life force is used unconsciously to acquire senses.

This is also an area of ​​talent.

Of course, once you reach a certain level, you can use it intentionally, but since you realize how dangerous it is, you almost never use it.

‘But are you using it as your main weapon?’

Isn’t it just someone who wants to commit suicide?

After listening to Alice and Atra’s explanation, I realized that it was just before scraping out the fundamental life force, like the innate energy.

It seems that the vitality and vitality that is recharged over time are used first.

However, the moment you use it even slightly beyond the line, it will damage the roots of life.

Once the innate true energy is consumed, it does not return unless the level is raised and rapid growth occurs, or unless there is special treatment using elixirs or holy relics.

They are all difficult and close to impossible.

When faced with such an enormous risk, why do they use that power instead of taking other measures?

Even if there was no other way, this really wasn’t the case.

‘If the Special Forces Department is really a group that hunts ghosts… Is it like a grudge?’

I don’t know how to train mana or internal energy, but I think it’s because I have a grudge or revenge against the ghost, so I use my life force to fight.

“It might be revenge.”

Was Roman’s simple reasoning a reasonable answer?

Atra showed her face with understanding and regret.

No matter how much Roman and his party had only fragmentary information, they could not even approach the answer to their ignorance of the power they held up as a mystery.

From Atra’s point of view, he would feel a certain amount of backlash if he used it, so he was just worried, thinking he knew what to do.

“Don’t make that face. Shall we go see the cute penguin?”

“!”

Let’s gently touch Atra’s cheek with lowered eyes and mention penguins.

Light blue eyes shine with interest.

Roman and his group quickly cleaned up the empty glasses.

I set out to find the rental car I reserved through the app.

*****

Although work is important, is it more important than people’s lives?

Lee Cho-ah took the deputy commander in the car and went to a nearby hospital.

Immediately after receiving unidentified treatment, Hwang Dong-hyeon said he was fine, but he thought he might not know.

Lee Cho-ah pushed Hwang Dong-hyeon into her orthopedic clinic and sat on her sofa to wait.

She looked blankly at the hospital ceiling and pondered the previous incident.

‘There are people like that in the world…’

The blonde-haired woman was a powerhouse of a different class that not even veterans of the Special Forces could compare to.

I am the first tycoon who cannot come up with a winning quote no matter what he does.

Isn’t the Jangsan tiger running wild in front of her just a poop puppy?

Her beauty alone is enough to steal the attention of women, but there are two women whose abilities are also exceptional.

There are no feelings of jealousy or envy.

Simply.

Lee Cho-ah only became humble as he realized once again that the world is wide and that there are many great people.

‘···.’

And what stirred her spirit more vividly than those shocks.

– My advice to you two is that you should not use such dangerous power carelessly. You should cherish your body more.

A voice filled with genuine concern.

That one word continues to linger in Lee Cho-ah’s mind.

‘I guess you’re talking about mystery.’

I understand the part it refers to. However, I don’t understand what it means to not use it carelessly.

Is the dark red light that she used to heal Hwang Dong-hyeon something she learned by completely understanding her mystery and taking it to the next level?

As we try to derive information somehow, it becomes more and more complicated.

If she knows the secret about the mystery, where does the information come from?

Is it possible that there exists a high-level group in Korea that even the members of the Special Investigation Department are unaware of?

‘Or is it affiliated with somewhere overseas? It was said that Japan and China have a longer history, so there is more information…’

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t know.

The conclusion is not clear. It is impossible to even guess its identity.

The only clue is a unique ring with a red gem on a pitch black background on the ring finger of the left hand.

Looking at the location, it is difficult to judge that it is a couple ring or wedding ring, but since the two people were wearing the same jewelry, it may be a symbol of a certain group.

“Ah…”

Cut off the continuing thoughts and wash your face dry.

As her thoughts deepened, her head began to pound, and a sob escaped Lee Choa’s lips.

As she was so dazed, her eyes slowly closed.

Even though I train so hard to survive, my physical strength doesn’t increase and my sleep increases and shows no signs of decreasing.

She is sitting on the sofa and dozing off.

Her familiar voice opens Lee Choa’s eyes.

“Sir, no problem.”

Hwang Dong-hyeon, who finished the treatment, still seems in disbelief.

He clenched and unclenched his fists and came out.

“They say there’s nothing wrong?”

“Yes.”

Is it okay?

Not only did it return to its original state, but the chronic pain I felt every time I rotated my wrist also disappeared.

It feels like only one part has been rejuvenated.

“Ha… That’s good. Let’s go out first.”

Lee Choa finished her calculations and headed out of the hospital.

How will this information be conveyed to superiors?

Perhaps they have found out information that an individual should not know.

I needed a top.
