    “no! If Cesk dies here our mission is a failure!

    “Your influence in the company will be reduced and the escort division you belong to will also take a hit…”

    “The escort division will be reorganized. “Martunis can no longer be the head of the department anyway right?”

    “anyway?”

    Surprise spread across the manager’s face.

    “Surely you knew?”

    “I know everything you need to know. If Martunis isn’t there you will be promoted to Deputy Director instead. therefore……”

    Joo Gong-hyuk flicked cigarette ash into the corpse’s nostrils.

    “If you refuse any further the ‘contract’ will be enforced. Don’t keep saying things like this. “I am a person with a strong disregard for life.”

    “……”

    The manager quietly brought in Cesc who had been hiding it under a blanket.

    “Wake me up.”

    “hmm.”

    As the manager gently shook his body Cesc got up.

    “What is the situation now? What happened? “What about people?”

    The manager looked at Gonghyuk with a troubled face.

    Gonghyuk changed his avatar without saying a word.

    “Change avatar. Mr. Sijo. “Blackout operation.”

    [The avatar changes from Jecheon Daeseong to Sijo.]

    [Activation of Mr. Sijo’s first ability ‘Blackout’]

    A dark space spread around Gonghyeok’s body.

    The darkness engulfed the three people and soon the surroundings became transparent.

    A state in which Lilianne and Remiel cannot interfere.

    Inside Gonghyeok let out a sigh of boredom.

    “Mr. Cesc.”

    “Team leader Joo? Are all the people dead? “The person wearing the mask…”

    “Are you from the future?”

    “what?”

    “Are you here to kill me?”

    Cesc’s face became indescribable.

    Specifically ‘What kind of bullshit is this guy talking about now?’ It was a face like this.

    Pajik!

    Behind Joo Gong-hyeok’s back black wings protruded like springs.

    [Limited skill short-range magic spell (A++) activated]

    I heard the sound of the wind picking.

    Suddenly Cesc’s right arm falls off.

    “uh?”

    Drops of blood began to ooze from the cut muscle cross section and the blood flowing from the blood vessels soaked the yellow fat.

    I expected an outburst of screams.

    Cesc was calmer than expected.

    “Ugh.”

    He let out a groan unbuckled his belt and tied the remaining shoulder straps and armpits putting pressure on them.

    Jeong Hyeon-do who was next to him was stunned to see him silently stopping the bleeding in his right arm.

    “No there is a level of calm in a crisis situation.”

    Joo Gong-hyuk calmly evaluated the cross-section of the severed arm.

    “It doesn’t have any biological parts or a reinforced skeleton. “There is no coolant or oil mixed in the blood.”

    “What does it mean?”

    “Hmm.”

    Joo Gong-hyeok who was worried grabbed Cesc’s left arm.

    Ujijijijik─

    “Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    Gonghyeok who tore off his arm with force checked the cross section again.

    “There really are no signs of modification?”

    “Aaaaaaa—!”

    If you remain calm this time you won’t be human.

    Cesc struggled in pain that was incomparable to the pain of having his right arm cut off by a wing.

    “phew. Calm down. Sorry.”

    Gonghyuk filled his hand with the energy of a curse and swept the cross section of his left arm.

    The blood stops flowing and the wound dries up like an old tree.

    “Uuuuu….”

    “My mind is still sound.”

    “Why are you torturing me! “What on earth is the purpose?”

    “You asked me earlier.”

    Gonghyuk spoke naturally.

    “You’re from the future right?”

    “future?”

    “I am. I’ve been working on this floor for over 300 years and have checked out all the talented and useful people. “You mean this is someone I’ve never seen before?”

    “It’s been 300 years. Are you really a refugee from another dimension? You are not a human being but a refugee from a destroyed world! “How did you sneak in as a hunter?”

    Cesc mentioned dimension refugees.

    When asked if he was a resident of a destroyed world like the people of La Jehuti living on the 49th floor Gonghyeok vehemently denied it.

    “no. no. It is true that it comes from a destroyed world. “Yoomin it’s not like that you’re from Earth.”

    “Do you mean it was destroyed or not? What is the future? “What kind of rhythm should it be set to?”

    Cesc expressed his resentment and anger.

    Joo Gong-hyeok’s trembling voice was heard as he naturally cried out in anger and wondered ‘How can I bully him so that he confesses to himself that he is from the future?’

    – You were not from this world?

    “Are you awake?”

    When I looked down I saw Nathaniel curled up in his inner pocket.

    – There were more than one or two strange things during that time.

    Don’t you know all the hidden achievements and predict how angels and devils will act in the future? As if you know the future…

    “Nathaniel. “I don’t know the future.”

    Gonghyuk smiled peacefully.

    “You know the past.”

    If possible I often let him sleep in so I could hide him until late.

    I got caught a little early.

    It is strange that someone like Nathaniel who has been around 24 hours a day has been with him for decades but his regression has not been discovered.

    There have been several instances where I have been caught not only by her but also by angels and demons who may be hiding somewhere in the mission.

    There was a time when he tried to kill the manager of the floor as soon as he was caught but later he realized that even if a few people found out about the regression there would be no sanctions against him.

    ‘Well as long as you announce the regression to the world and don’t try to profit from it you won’t touch it.’

    Rather it would be easier if Nathaniel was part of the team.

    On the 3rd floor because of B there was quite a bit of publicity so the angels and devils could have noticed.

    But fortunately it passed safely because Poseidon and the Heavenly Knights were busy fighting.

    ‘Angel is fine. But not the devil.’

    Reversion is no different from cheating for demons.

    Even if you don’t come to kill them outright you will be very wary.

    If Nathaniel became a companion he could inform Joo Gong-hyeok when he sensed the presence of a devil around him.

    – Joo Gong-hyuk. No you were Joo Gong-hyeok before that right?

    she asked with a sad face.

    – Are you really from this world?

    Joo Gong-hyuk smiled bitterly.

    “Nathaniel. “There is no one in this world who is more confident of being a person of this world than me.”

    He spread his arms as if embracing the sky.

    “This world works for my convenience. Rewind just for me and recreate just for me. “Only I stand there.”

    – It’s not like that. The world is like that….

    “what. I know what you want to say. Does this mean that you shouldn’t be too proud about the hamster in the kennel?

    “Hamster kennels are made for hamsters but their bigger purpose is for hamster owners.”

    – No nothing like that.

    “That’s it. “Am I busy right now?”

    Cesc was terrified as he saw Joo Gong-hyeok who had cut off his own arms while talking crazy about being from the future and all and was now talking to himself like a crazy person.

    “That Joo Gong-hyuk. Calm down and listen to me. I don’t know what problems you have from the past but I’m not from the future and I have no intention of harming you.

    Perhaps some bad memory is distorting your perception. Take a moment to catch your breath and calm down. “There is no one here right now who can pose a threat to you.”

    Suddenly

    A bloody steel boot caressed Cesc’s chin as he spoke seriously in the style of a psychologist.

    “The story is over. “Take out your avatar.”

    “Cough avatar?”

    Cesc asked coughing up blood.

    “I watched it all the way. Damo and Vergo you guys don’t all use avatars right?

    So I think there is no conclusion at all.”

    “If it’s an avatar….”

    Cesc hesitated.

    Joo Gong-hyeok’s keen eye did not miss that part.

    “Show me your avatar and I’ll make you believe me.”

    “If you say that I understand.”

    It was impossible for anyone not in the GM’s database to identify the avatar and in-depth information.

    Therefore B and D’s information could not be known in advance and Cesc here was also not in the database like them.

    It’s time to check if you’re really a person from the future.

    Cesc closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

    “El Cid. Answer my call.”

    The image of a knight wearing armor appeared behind Cesc.

    A symbol of the Spanish hero Reconquista. El Cid (B).

    It was undoubtedly an avatar in name and reality.

    “There is a blemish.”

    Gonghyuk Joo looked at the avatar and stroked his chin.

    Cesc shouted happily.

    “That’s right. “I am the person from the future you were looking for…”

    “No.”

    Fit─

    Black wings brushed against the neck that let out an exclamation of joy.

    The neck separated from the body spins around in the air.

    Heaven and earth turned upside down in Cesc’s sight.

    Peabit─ Peabit Fit─

    Black wings struck Cesc’s body at supersonic speed.

    The human figure collapsed into dozens of pieces of meat.

    “Eup Ueup!”

    Jeong Hyeon-do who was watching the crazy behavior was disgusted.

    ‘He’s mentally ill.’

    Cruelty beyond the limit.

    Illogical language and thinking.

    Perception of victimization and delusional disorder.

    And cognitive dissonance.

    All of Joo Gong-hyeok’s words and actions led to the conclusion that he was a complete psychopath.

    Dozens and hundreds of people died due to the madness of a strong psychopath.

    Jeong Hyeon-do was despairing that he could not get out of that range.

    His own face overlapped Cesc’s neck as he fell.

    “Well the work is roughly finished. “Let’s go.”

    Joo Gong-hyeok was in the dark.

    Outside Soma and his group were seen coming up from the underground.

    “No way Gonghyuk. Are they all dead this time?”

    Gonghyuk smiled positively in response to Soma’s question.

    “Yeah I didn’t kill him. “He almost killed me.”

    “yes?”

    Joo Gong-hyuk’s finger pointed at Manager Jeong.

    All the team members looked at Manager Jeong in disbelief.

    “No I mean! It’s not because I want to! “It was an order!”

    “You originally planned to kill them all right?”

    “No that’s true.”

    Desperate excuses became meaningless.

    plod trudge

    Hayeonsi who was behind her walked without strength.

    Then out of Joo Gong-hyeok’s sight he sat in front of Cesc’s body.

    Gonghyuk knew but didn’t care.

    ‘It’s a pity that my heart has become weak. But you should know that you can’t do anything about it.’

    A dead human anyway.

    No matter how unfortunate it was there was nothing she could do about it.

    Ha Yeon-si said nothing.

    He just quietly ran his hand through Cesc’s hair.

    And in her hands.

    A pure white flower stuck out its head.

    Wow

    [Princess Bari (SS) 3rd ability – ‘Flower Field in the Dark’ appears]

    [Creation of Lively Flower Bloody Flower Bonesage Flower and Hornsal Flower]

    [Beginning of body reconstruction and increase in remaining soul]

    [Summon avatar ‘Angel □□□(?)’]

    [An angelic avatar assists in all processes according to Hayeonsi’s will.]

    [Benefits Appearance of an angel incarnate (Unique SSS)

    – Increasing divine power and starting to assist in the resurrection process

    – Angel system intervention. [Regeneration of information erased in the system]

    Radiance spread all around.

    The shapes of Princess Bari and an angel appeared on both sides of Hayeon City.

    As Cesk’s dismembered body is connected his heart beats and his face comes back to life.

    Joo Gong-hyuk slowly looked back at her.

    “Hayeonsi. “What are you doing?”

    She laid down Cesk’s fully regenerated body and stood up.

    “Brother. “You can’t do this.”

    Her eyes which looked like they were about to cry met Joo Gong-hyeok’s.

    “You will regret it someday.”

    10th floor.

    ‘Gradiut’s Castle’ mission.

    Time left until dawn.

    4 minutes to go.
