NOVEL NEXT chapter 10
10 – The end of the childhood narrative (1)
‘… Reagent administration! What is Nurse Choi doing? Hurry! This patient is seriously injured!’
‘under… But sir. This patient’s wound has already healed.
‘What?! no it can’t be… ‘
It’s noisy.
I frowned at the faint voices of the two men.
how much time has passed
I opened my eyes to the pleasant sunlight.
“… … ”
Look up blankly for a moment.
He recited a line of national rules that suited the situation.
“It is an unfamiliar ceiling… ”
Say what you want to say at least once in your life.
foot
huh?
A burst of laughter was heard.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to laugh. He suddenly said something funny.”
A young nurse in a white and pink uniform stood beside her.
Then I was able to look around. The acrid smell of disinfectant that stings your nose and the patient’s uniform with green and white patterns… .
‘It’s a hospital.’
It must have been brought by Yu Mi-hee, whom he had seen before passing out.
“I’ll change the sap for a moment.”
I opened my mouth as I watched them change the bag containing the liquid.
“Who brought me there?”
“yes? Oh you mean that nice lady? Shira, a hero from the association… ”
He nodded.
“Since he was also seriously injured, he received treatment while you were unconscious and is now recovering.
Because they are awakened, they recover faster than civilians, so you should be discharged soon.”
“okay… ”
“Oh, the doctor was surprised to see it. There was nothing strange about dying right now.
They said that the inside of the body was repaired and regenerated at an astonishing speed, and that it seemed that the moment his life was on the verge of awakening, it seemed that he had awakened his unique ability specialized in survival.”
“Aha, I’m so glad.”
Thank you for your adaptability, who worked hard even if you lost consciousness.
“You’re lucky. I don’t have anything to say to you, the patient, but it’s great.
He’s young, and even though he’s a man, he has his own ability… Do you think the potential is huge?”
“uh… huh? yes?”
Why does the phrase “while being a man” come up here?
I questioned it out of curiosity, but
“Then get some rest. I’ll come back in the evening~”
The nurse sister smiled brightly, stroked her hair, and quietly left.
“… Whatever it is, I’ll finally catch my breath.”
I rubbed my back on the soft bed and covered my eyes with the back of my hand.
‘I’m sure you said that the descendants of the stigma evolved into B at the end, right?’
‘There’s no such thing as a sea pearl… .’
While playing among gamers, I have heard from time to time that certain situations, environments, and actions enhance abilities that theoretically cannot be upgraded.
‘I can’t believe it will evolve.’
It’s something I’ve never seen before while playing…
do you see this
He chuckled inwardly, shaking his head, shaking his thoughts.
‘What would change if I lamented what had already happened. The important thing is from now on.’
I looked at the flickering message window and alarm icon from earlier.
“At this level of fuss, I’m afraid to check… yes?”
At that time, I felt a small presence through the crack in the door.
tight… .
‘??’
A rustling strand of hair swayed like a foxtail.
‘What is that stupid hair effect that can be seen in that cartoon?’
As I tilt my head, unable to understand the situation,
tight… .
A girl who seemed to be about six years old stuck her head out.
The breast meat on her cheeks didn’t fall out, so she was chubby and stared at her with big, bell-sized eyes.
‘What is that creature harmful to the heart?’
Everyone sits down and oh my heart! The girl who showed cuteness to the point of grabbing at her distance quickly came running
Took
He placed a lollipop on top of the blanket he was covering.
“… yes?”
“… cow… hands, no… gift”
His tongue was twisted, and he babbled incomprehensibly.
I just went back and looked at it with my head sticking out from the crack in the door.
‘… I guess this is why my father said that when a daughter is born, it’s so cute.’
Heh heh he’s so cute
The strange creature called my sister in my house is completely disgustingly unmatched.
Feeling happy inside, I looked at the girl and took the candy.
“Thank you, I will eat well.”
When he replied with a smile, his face turned red, and he smiled and hid himself with only his stupid hair showing.
‘This but… Wouldn’t that be a drug?’
I was suspicious for a moment because Han Ae-jung ate drug-flavored candy, but when I looked at it through observation, I felt guilty inside because it was an ordinary candy.
“Hana~Hana, where are you?”
A voice was heard looking for someone.
Hey, this voice.
“I was here. Mom was worried about you.”
A woman with short blue hair smiled and stroked the hair of a stupid haired girl called Hana.
“But this room… Oh my goodness”
A woman with a surprised expression, or Yu Mi-hee, looked at me with a smile.
“Are you awake? Are you coming to your senses?”
“Yes I am fine. Mihee, are you okay?”
Yu Mi-hee, who laughed at my words,
“Call me Ms. It’s strange to hear something like that from a girl of the same age as my daughter.”
Alas! walking away,
“Let me introduce you Siuya. This is one of my daughters. As I said before, I’m the same age as you, 8 years old.”
“Ah, daughter?”
Oh my God, that boy who looks one head smaller than me is 8 years old with the same body as me? No matter how you look at it, it looks like it’s 5 or 6 years old.
Yu Mi-hee, or Auntie, smiled and walked forward holding the child’s hand.
“I informed Hana that you are a lifesaver. I guess I came because I was grateful.”
Oh that’s right.
I looked at the girl again and smiled brightly.
‘… .’
I swallowed a laugh when I saw the guy hiding behind one of the lady’s legs, all red.
‘Yeah wait… one?’
“Hey, is your daughter’s name also Yoo?”
“yes? oh you may not know Most countries, including Korea, take their mother’s surname and attach it. Of course, I’m going to take my last name. But why?”
That’s right, it’s Yuhana…
Are you really that one?
Opening my mouth for a moment, I quickly examined the girl.

‘Wow mae beol… .’
I couldn’t help but be aghast. Because the girl in front of me was someone I knew well.
‘Wow, is that Gumi-hyang’s rival Yu Ha-na? really?’
A living witness who showed the reality of a person without talent who died miserably after being completely pushed by Mi-hyang Ku in the middle.
That Yuhana was right.
At that time, when I was amazed, a hypothesis in my head continued like a puzzle.
‘I see. Originally, Yu Mi-hee died at the hands of Han Ae-jung and succeeded in becoming a demon by running away.
Considering how the kids around me said that Yuhana was an orphan, it seems that she came from an orphanage at that time.’
Perhaps her father died some time ago.
Because Yuhana briefly mentioned it.
‘Then, is this world where Goo Mi-hyang plays an active role as the main character?’
The five playable characters did not exist at the same time as each other.
If you start with one character, the narrative begins only with that character, and the other children do not appear.
Most of the supporting characters were the same, but depending on the main character, someone was added or disappeared.
One of them, Hana Yu, was a supporting character that could only be seen when playing as Gumi Hyang.
It was a figure that was a device that made her performance stand out.
‘Okay then the main story… .’
“Is your head hurting over there? Will you come back in a little while?”
As I was grunting and clutching my forehead, I saw an older woman looking at me with concern.
“ah! no. Thinking about something else for a while
Ah, come to think of it, Changsik… Eh, what about the kids who were kidnapped?”
she smiles
“don’t worry. Thanks to you defeating Acrea, we were able to rescue it safely.
Now everyone is protected under the Association.
They will probably be sent to a nearby certified nursery.
Children with families will be sent back after checking the situation.”
“okay. That’s fortunate.”
I let out a sigh of relief at the thought that Changsik would be okay.
“That’s why I wanted to talk to you about it anyway.”
“A story?”
The lady returned with a serious nod and left one with the nurse who was walking around outside.
then close your eyes
Ugh!
A blue curtain stretched out to cover the two of them.
“Is this crazy? You also have a talent for ki.”
“Yeah, it’s a bit difficult to perform proper martial arts because the portrait level isn’t that high.”
The old woman groaned,
“The Acrea you defeated is completely mash and dead. Association investigators also say that it appears to have killed them instantly with tremendous destructive force.”
“… ”
“Even if you say that you are only 10% of the Awakened and have the ability to avenge, it’s hard to believe that a child produced it.
An orphan who never even received a professional education showed that much strength?
He’ll probably shake his head and tell me not to lie.”
“I barely ran, so I don’t know exactly what you did. However, that energy that was so powerful that the whole body was terrified… It must have been you.”
The aunt looked at me with a complicated mind.
‘I’m in trouble… ‘
As she said, the piece of strength I showed at that time was only enough for a medium-to-upper hero who was judged to be B+ or higher.
No, if you think about the compression of the power gathered by the authority after activating the omen,
‘A prized hero… ‘
That is, you can see even A+ grade.
Of course, it’s only for that moment.
“The association reported that Acrea was killed by someone unknown.
You seem to be a bit embarrassed as well, but at least you seem to think that it’s more correct than what you said.”
“According to my original identity, I would have to interrogate you to find out about your strength and identity, but… ”
“I won’t ask anything.”
“yes?”
“The biggest reason I came to you is to say thank you.”
“If it weren’t for you, I would never have seen my daughter again, and Hana would have been a loner.”
The aunt quietly wrapped my hand and bowed her head.
“Thank you so much. for saving me I will definitely repay this grace for not letting Hana suffer the loss of not only her father but also her mother.”
I felt embarrassed and ashamed.
“ah… no. I’m just trying to live, so what?”
she shook her head,
“I wanted you to run away at least by yourself. I was relieved to see you actually slip away, but you came back.
And he risked his own life to save not only me, but also all the kidnapped children.”
“You deserve to be called a hero.”
[Yu Mi-hee’s affinity for you reaches (MAX)]
‘Oh, this is a bit embarrassing.’
He shook his hands and tried not to show his blushing face.
My mother stroked my hair,
“Now it is my turn to return the favor. So I want to propose to you.”
“A suggestion?”
“Are you thinking of becoming my adopted son?”
? quantum?
“If it’s both, that… A foster son?”
“Yes, if you leave the hospital like this, you will be sent to an orphanage. But I want to take charge of you myself.”
Umm… Definitely not a bad suggestion,
I always nag for a while, but I thought of Mrs. Roh, who loves me more than anyone else.
‘As expected, my mother is the only one.’
“I’m sorry. I think both will be difficult.”
“so… .”
The old woman made a sad face.
Uh huh, you have to listen to Korean until the end.
“Will you be my guardian instead?”
“yes? custodian?”
“Rather than your adopted son, a guardian who supports and takes care of me. It’s like blindfolded, but I think I like that form better.”
At my words, Yu Mi-hee looked blankly.
smiling lightly
“Yes, if you want that form, I will do it. So, are we going to be a de facto family now?”
She held my hand tighter.
“Please take good care of me in the future, Siwoo.”
Looking at her straight, soft eyes, I remembered my mother’s face once again.
“… yes! Please take good care of me. old lady”
Do not worry. mother.
this unfaithful son.
I will definitely go back
So please wait.
Then I also smiled at my mother.
