“Is this the place they used as their base?”

In Kimura’s eyes, the young man blocking the stairs was nothing more than a gatekeeper.

It is a natural guess that it would have remained because the armed forces it possessed were insignificant and could not even participate in the war.

“Don’t kill them, bring them back and re-gather information about the area.”

They had already moved dozens of kilometers, choosing and killing groups of rebellious Awakeners.

To get information from Seo-gu to Saha-gu in Busan, the man on the stairs who seemed to be guarding their base seemed appropriate.

Protecting this place means being a member of the largest force, and usually the lower the rank in that force, the more quickly you know the situation on the field.

After hearing Kimura’s words, the adjutant nodded and took out some Awoken.

The moment I was about to climb the stairs leisurely with the four awakened people at the head.

jjeook-

“Uh, uh… ?”

With an unpleasant sound, three of the four subordinates in front fell down on the stairs.

A confused voice came out of the adjutant’s mouth at the sudden situation.

“What, what are you doing?”

“All right, officer in charge… Bar, ankle… .”

What the two survivors had in common was that they did not step on the stairs.

After receiving a word from his subordinates belatedly, his gaze returned to the ankles of his subordinates.

Six ankles cut neatly as if they were lined with military boots.

Blood was gushing out long before they realized the situation, and only then did a scream close to shouting erupt.

“Quaaagh!”

“My legs! my legs!”

“Sir baaal!”

The adjutant called the officer with a pale face shouted.

“You, what are you doing!”

They were the ones who tried to touch Ha Yeon-woo, who was still.

There was no life, but it was full of enemy movements. The moment I crossed the arbitrarily drawn ‘line’, my ankle flew off.

Aside from that, Korean was heard for the first time among those who were clearly Japanese soldiers, judging by their clothes and the language they spoke.

These were the words of a man in military uniform whose ankle was spared from not climbing the stairs.

“korean?”

In the first place, the pronunciation system is different, so unless you stay for a long time and fully understand it, when Japanese people use Korean, you will notice it.

“I am surprised. A Korean prostitute in a Japanese military uniform.”

Well, maybe he’s just a nerd.

In fact, it was not particularly important whether Koreans acted as agents of the Japanese or vice versa.

In this situation, most of the people who talk about ethnicity, whether they are Japanese or Korean, are either crazy or instigators. it will be one of the two

“Are you the real owner of this place!”

Only the pronunciation is perfect, an awkward shout that barely follows Japanese colloquialism.

“Isn’t usually the one who shows hostility first revealed his identity?”

It is obvious that it will be difficult to deal with. However, as communication continued without any further attack, his gaze naturally turned back.

The person in charge nodded and muttered something, and the man turned his head again and shouted sternly as if declaring war.

“We are from Japan! A former member of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, I came here to find a way to live! Who are you!”

A very kind call compared to the attitude.

It was obvious, but the guy talking now is also an Awakener. The person in charge was a stronger Awakener at the top of the 6th tier.

To put it concretely, it’s a level close to the Aileen I saw at the auction house right after I came back.

Not to mention the majority of the thousands of troops surrounding it.

He knew that the skill of cutting off only the ankles of those who climbed the stairs after a distance of tens of meters was unusual.

Moreover, the target was an Awakener of about 4th tier.

‘If you have a head, you should know.’

“Now answer me! Who are you!”

The second question posed by the same class was answered meekly.

“I am not the owner here. Ha Yeon-woo.”

“Ha Yeon-woo?”

Starting with his words, the name was passed on to the person in charge and the many Awoken people who stood behind him.

The reaction was largely the same.

“I hope that… .”

“Why is Ha Yeon-woo here? You said you were in North Korea?”

The buzz grew.

There was no drama-like development where you were startled and startled just by looking at their faces.

‘Because that’s an illusion.’

It was a reality that it was difficult to recognize even human relationships that had been exchanged in the past when they met in unexpected situations and places.

Recognizing Ha Yeon-wu, who he has never met in a hooded sweatshirt and sweatshirt, and to think that he is in Busan on the other side of the Sarai Autonomous District is itself a strange thing.

I finally figured it out because he told me and compared it with the knowledge I had belatedly.

Fortunately, Japan is the next country, so the news about celebrities spread quite closely, so it was fast.

If they were people on the other side of the world, they wouldn’t have believed it if Ha Yeon-woo introduced himself.

This is because the mobile phone, website, and SNS to check the identity of the person are all down.

Did you feel the seriousness of the situation?

The person in charge came forward and stood in line with the interpreter.

A position three or four steps away from the stairs.

It is instinctively known. Even if it’s yourself, the moment you step on the stairs, your ankle will run away.

When he said something, he hurriedly started interpreting next to him.

“Boo, can I take care of the men!”

The tone of speech suddenly changed to honorific. As I nodded, dozens of people rushed from behind and took the injured and slipped away like the ebb tide.

The conversation that had been interrupted continued immediately after that.

“Are you going to stop us?”

“Block? I?”

“You don’t know the situation in Japan. We are at a dead end. Most of the city, including the capital, was destroyed, and surrounded by the sea, it was like being imprisoned with monsters!”

“So what are you going to do?”

“Not to mention food, if we continue like this, all over 100 million Japanese will be annihilated.”

A man who ignored Ha Yeon-woo’s recitation and finished the sermon as if he was unfair.

As a listener, he had no interest or thought.

“It may seem to you that we invaded this place with thousands of Awoken, but at home there are tens of thousands of ordinary citizens waiting for us. We can’t help it either… .”

“know.”

“Choice… Oh, you know?”

“What, is that wrong?”

Whether it’s life, land, or food, it’s a situation where if you don’t take it, you’ll destroy yourself.

Then stealing is right.

For Ha Yeon-woo, this extremely animal proposition was not the realm of right and wrong, but just a natural phenomenon.

If the way of taking the lives of others is wrong, then it is also wrong for humans to be born, hunt animals, cultivate territories, and coordinate everything to act as top predators.

In human societies, such practices have become less animalistic and pretentious because it is much cheaper to wrap them up in the name of morality or practicality.

It was good by nature, and it wasn’t what it was supposed to be.

If there is a difference between World War II, which took place decades ago, and this situation now, then what was at stake was pure interest, and now it is about life.

It was just an extension of the usual war between humans.

At least from Ha Yeon-woo’s point of view.

“Isn’t it a meaningless world to discuss right and wrong?”

It’s just the shape that’s different. The economy of the market, stocks, and borders are all taken away or taken away. Only one of the two has existed.

“then… Are you saying that this behavior has nothing to do with it?”

Somehow, the subject of the question seems to have changed. gave a clear answer.

“It just made the responsibility for the choices heavier.”

As a fragmentary example, people like Na Sang-gi and Paik Geon-wu will carry on their previous moral values no matter how the world changes.

That is, unless something significant happens that causes a change in values.

Human dignity. Dory rather than truth. Moral notions that have been taught. I will live by keeping those things.

On the other hand, you or those in front of you are just a type of ‘choosing’ the primitive way of taking and taking away those things instead of throwing them away.

It is not a matter of right or wrong, but the difference between taking responsibility when things go wrong.

Of course, that responsibility was mostly life.

Even with the word responsibility, they realized what they were talking about.

I asked with a lot of tension in the context of talking about life.

“With us… Are you saying you will be hostile?”

“hostility? you and me?”

From noble mtl dot com

Laughter came out.

Guys who didn’t even know existed crawl out and try to subdue themselves with three or four people, don’t they just tease their mouths after hearing their status?

“Isn’t it too slow to grasp the subject? That’s why I’m being chased by monsters and hunting people like me.”

It was obvious without looking. Even though the battle was already completely over, what is the reason for sweeping the whole of Busan while shedding lives?

It was like an act of clearing out something intrusive in advance, sorting out the ground.

After the end of the war of aggression, it is such a task that goes hand in hand with finding out and killing or expelling Ganja or terrorist groups, and having the royal family and nobles of the defeated country beheaded or face a miserable situation.

Around that time, something unexpected happened.

perok-

The person in charge who was exchanging words with the interpreter put a fist into his stomach.

He punched so hard that it could be heard clearly from several tens of meters away.

“Turn it off… .”

The person in charge soon raises his head and mumbles something.

I couldn’t understand it, but it was clear that he was full of anger.

“I’m sorry. Contrary to our opinion, I reacted sharper… .”

It seemed that some of the expressions added were not the will of the person in charge, but something like his petty pride or patriotism.

The scarred middle-aged man also bowed his head deeply.

“Us… Can’t you just let it go?”

Seeing that, I laughed out again. Isn’t it like playing drums and playing janggu and doing everything among themselves?

“You guys started the fight first. I haven’t moved one step from this spot.”

“There are three people on our side… .”

“Oh, I can’t go past this. now.”

“What do you mean?”

From their point of view, it was a disorienting speech. Because it will feel like a joke.

In the first place, it was a conversation like a comic conversation that followed because there was no particular idea of what to do with them.

“I sent my men in because I had something to look for.”

Baek Kun-wu became a subordinate because he was too lazy to explain them one by one. The two of them made increasingly bewildered faces at the brief explanation.

“then… Not because they’re hostile to us, but to keep them from crossing over here… .”

“hostility? Sorry, don’t overestimate you guys. Enmity is a word used only for beings who can only win with hostility.”

After returning to Earth, there is only one person that can be called an enemy.

It was only the Adjuster he hadn’t met yet.

The causal rate I met in Africa is honestly… It was a wall.

Although he cared about the destruction of the surrounding terrain, he ‘liked’ the attack with his sincerity. Because he was the one who made the evaluation.

The manager nodded with a firm expression, as if agreeing.

It seems that he has definitely abandoned all his status, nationality, and pride.

“I don’t care what you guys do here, I’ve dealt with the three that showed their hostility towards me. As long as you don’t cross the line.”

Whether you take Busan or bring in residents from Japan, you won’t even be able to meet them for a while anyway.

“I thought you were in the land you made.”

It seemed to be referring to Sara Autonomous District. That’s why they pushed through here like an invasion without fear, and you wouldn’t have recognized them when you first met them.

“however?”

“When you’re done with your business, are you leaving again?”

“I have to go. That’s my house.”

Somehow, the conversation has turned into a rakugo from a while ago. It seemed difficult to follow the flow, but he spoke without losing tension and vigilance.

“we are… Killed many Koreans. And yet… .”

There was a lot of emotion in the words that crushed the end.

Anxiety about going back smoothly. A bit of shame about what you did. And the underlying fear that if you resist, you will die unconditionally.

“Well, since I’m Korean, is it strange that I don’t kill you guys?”

The person in charge responded by making eye contact and nodding his head instead.

Ha Yeon-woo knew it too. It is natural for them to have this way of thinking.

“Hey you.”

“yes? You mean that?”

“The person you interpret for, not you. What is your name?”
