chapter 25
25 – Spring Training 7
Han Do-yeong appeared while radiating an unexpected presence.
The moment Shinhye saw him, she felt as if her entire body was frozen.
‘What… What is it… That… That… That’s really… That man, Han Do-young?’
It felt completely different from when she applied for sparring the other day.
Seeing the man’s terrifying appearance, as if she were looking at someone else, Shin-hye automatically began to tremble in fear.
‘I expected it to some extent, but that man was a monster. He is also the person chosen by the 7th ..’
Han Soo-yeong, the shadow witch, is ranked 7th, but in terms of strength, she cannot be compared to other heroes.
At this moment, Choi Shin-hye was recalling once again the terrifying majesty of the woman she had only seen once in her life through the figure of Han Do-yeong in front of her.
Meanwhile
As if she wasn’t the only one who felt her presence, the eyes of the villains who were attacking her Shinhye began to gather toward Han Doyoung.
“What.. What are you..”
“This.. This is..”
Unlike the time when they had a little time to spare, the villains are starting to show a deep sense of bewilderment.
And…
Towards such villains, Han Do-young approached with surprising strides and began to narrow the distance with them.
At this moment, without even paying attention to the appearance of the villains preparing to attack him.
Then…
“! Hey… Hydra! Stop!”
The next moment, the captain of the guys, who had maintained a heavy atmosphere all along, shouted with a voice filled with urgency for the first time.
However, despite his words, one of the villains was already trying to fire the green acid cloud that had been shooting at Shinhye towards Han Doyoung.
By the way.
“Noisy.”
-Pak!
An incomprehensible phenomenon happened in front of Shinhye’s eyes.
It was Doyoung appearing right in front of the villain, closing the distance in an instant.
And at the same time, blood was spurting out like a fountain from the face of the villain who was about to attack Doyoung.
“Big… uh… uh… “
The appearance of the villain falling down as it is while letting out a terrible scream.
However, Doyoung’s attack, which quickly dug into the center where the villains were standing, didn’t end there.
“Cheer! Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!!”
“Keep it off!!!!”
“This… This… What is this! !! Kut! Turn it off!!!”
Watching the rest of the villains collapse while vomiting blood one after another along with the gruesome voices, Shin-hye couldn’t help but feel a momentary, terrifying feeling at the fact that she had started a fight against such a person.
‘As expected.. The sparring with me back then was just arguing with me.. If I had been sincere from the beginning, maybe I would..’
You can’t believe it even though you’re looking at it with your own eyes.
But .. As time passed, Shin-hye began to feel as if a part of her heart was entwined with a deep sense of relief along with her embarrassment.
‘Uh.. Anyway. Did I survive… With this?..’
Shin-hye felt the danger to her life just a few seconds ago
As soon as she finally realized that the danger was gone, Shinhye began to collapse in her place as if her legs had lost their strength.
Then…
“!…”
The next moment, a hand supported her body as she was about to collapse.
At this, Shin-hye’s face instantly began to contain a feeling of surprise, and the man looked at her and said in a voice filled with her calmness.
“Good job.”
His words are not meant to be ridiculed or empty, but his words are sincere.
Regarding this, even in this situation, Shin-hye began to feel something burning in her, and soon she lowered her head and spoke in a crawling voice.
“… If you know… It’s okay.”
To be honest, at this moment, Shin-hye had so many things she wanted to say.
From the story of what the hell she did just now, to the question of why she came running to save herself… And to the words of thanks for coming to the rescue.
However, despite the exhaustion of her body’s stamina, her madly beating heart made it impossible for Shin-hye to hear such stories at all.
In the end, the best words to say are words that make you feel your unique stiff pride even in this situation.
Feeling momentary remorse for that fact, Shinhye carefully leaned against the wall with her Doyoung supporting her.
“..What about the others?”
“After this, it will probably come out as soon as I call.”
I can clearly feel the voices of my colleagues at this moment with their backs against the wall.
Although she couldn’t protect everyone, Shin-hye felt relieved that she was finally able to protect as many as these people.
Then…
“Kuh… yes… you… !”
“Whoops!”
“… “
The next moment, a large man struggles to stand up in front of their eyes.
The moment she saw him, Shin-hye began to feel her tension tightening again.
Blocking her way, Doyoung said in a cold voice.
“To think he’s still holding his breath… is he definitely an A-class villain?”
“….”
With those words, Doyoung starts to approach the tall man.
Then.. Looking at Doyoung like that,
After the villain made an unusual expression, he began to gather his strength.
Just looking at it, it looks like it’s about to deliver a fairly powerful blow.
At this, Doyoung, as if intending to strike back, held her posture and tried to use her ability again.
But…
– Bang!
“!”
“… Chit..”
The next moment, a large man fired the accumulated power toward the floor instead of this way.
Due to the resulting explosion, the space they were in instantly began to be covered with thick dust.
Even at a glance, the behavior of the man trying to escape.
So, Doyoung pierced through the dust and followed him out of the building, and Shinhye also tried to follow him, but her body, which had already reached its limit, did not move any further.
‘Is this far…? ‘
After a while, after the dust had settled, Shin-hye could no longer see the big man or Do-young.
All you can see is the four villains lying on the floor after being beaten in an instant by Doyoung.
So, recognizing that there was nothing she could do in this next situation, Shin-hye looked at the aisle in front of her eyes and said in a soft voice filled with her nostalgia.
“… Doyoung…Ah…”
*
A giant villain trying to escape
Following closely behind him, at this moment I was seized with a very confused feeling.
‘What the hell… what the hell is going on? Why is that guy doing this here…’
A large man running away in front of my eyes.
As for who he seems to be the captain who led this group, there was a bar he heard as the former corps commander of the Villain Union.
Cyclops, the squad leader of the Villain Alliance.
A person with an upright yet cool personality, a being who has shown himself to handle things cruelly enough to not cross the line just barely.
And…
Due to the experience of his men being massacred in past battles,
A person with a deep grudge against the S-class Hunter Thunderforce.
In that respect, I could easily infer why the author appeared here and attacked Shin Hye, and why she brutally murdered her clique colleagues.
However, it wasn’t this motivation he had that really confused me at this moment.
The part where I am genuinely curious and at the same time feel a deep sense of concern.
That is, despite this resentment, he has been silently devoted to his work in accordance with the will of the Villain Alliance.
At the same time, he kept the minimum line.
Why did he dare to do such a thing even while breaking the union’s taboo that he should not touch minors?
‘No matter how crazy the Villains Union is, there’s no way they would have allowed this. That means that this work was done by the author alone. Why..’
In that way, the more I thought about it, the more I doubted it, I succeeded in following him to the point where I could use my ability based on the momentum I had raised to the maximum using my ability.
And…
-Pak!
“Keugh!”
The next moment, his leg suddenly exploded as his blood pressure soared.
At this, the large man rolled on the floor pathetically, and I said in a cold voice while watching him.
“Tell me. Why did you do this crazy thing?”
