131.
It took quite a bit of time to clean up the scene. They had to find out who had been turned into monsters by Ainas, and had to list the people who died as a result. Many people were killed and injured. Moreover, since most of them were Guardian Guild awakened, America was in trouble.
This was not only because the national power was weakened. Other countries demanded responsibility for the deaths of their people because of the American guilds.
“We are victims too!”
They tried shouting, but it didn't seem to reach them. Ainas, caught in the midst of this, shut her mouth. She tried many ways to get the mouth to open, but it didn't work. Meanwhile, the fairy next to her whined that Ainas, Albert, and Miriel should also be sent back.
“I will send it back when the time comes.”
“When will that be! Please send me now, okay?”
The fairy was very persistent. In that situation, Ainas requested to meet Hyeon-woo.
“You don’t have to listen to that, Hyung.”
Although Seon-woo was against it, Hyeon-woo felt that they needed to meet at least once. Therefore, he received permission from the U.S. government and met Ainas face to face.
"Long time no see."
It must have been a hard life for Ainas, but nothing had changed from before.
“You may be acting quite harshly, but aren’t you still human? Because demons are strong against pain. You won’t be able to open my mouth.”
Ainas assured.
“Now that the person I was following has died, I think I will have to find a way to live too. Don’t you need a faithful servant?”
“Why did you have to turn around like this?”
Hyeon-woo looked at Ainas with a puzzled expression.
“It’s something I hear often. But I'm serious. At least I will be much more helpful than the monsters you bring with you.”
“I was your enemy.”
“Yesterday’s enemy becomes today’s colleague.”
“It’s okay. Don’t talk nonsense and quickly tell me what you know.”
“I don’t like it. Why should I reveal it without any benefit?”
Ainas stuck out her tongue. It seemed like it would take more time to extract information from him. If the crime they committed was even minor, they would just send it back and solve it on their own.
Hyeon-woo clicked his tongue and stood up.
"Hello."
People passing by greeted Hyeon-woo politely whenever they saw him. All of this was thanks to Amber. She actively defended Hyeon-woo and revealed the hidden sins of the Guardian Guild.
Because of that, it was known that the reason Hyeon-woo was hiding his power was to kill the hidden villain Leon.
‘It’s not like that.’
Suddenly, he was treated as a hero. Still, it was nice that he didn't have to make excuses. With that in mind, he turned the corner and saw two familiar men.
One was his cute little brother and the other was his lover.
“Hyung, did anything happen?”
As soon as Seon-woo finished his question, Do-jin also opened his mouth.
“Are you okay? Didn’t Ainas cause any harm?”
Their words were different, but the meaning was the same. They were both worried about Hyeon-woo.
"I'm fine. Seon-woo must have been busy, so did you wait for me?”
Seon-woo frowned at Hyeon-woo’s words. After Leon met his end, the Awakened decided to elect a new president of the association. One of the candidates was Russia's Pyodro and the other was South Korea's Ji Seon-woo. Originally, they were going to nominate Hyeon-woo as a candidate, but he turned it down.
Now that everything was over, he had no intention of taking on a position like the president of the association.
“No matter how busy I am, I still have time to wait for my Hyung.”
‘Oh my, you’re cute.’ Hyeon-woo lightly pinched Seon-woo’s cheek. Then, the crumpled eyebrows slowly relaxed. Looking at the situation, it seemed like the president of the association would be Seon-woo. Then, inevitably, the number of people living abroad will increase, and he would become very busy.
Do-jin was happy for him. The person who was precious to Hyeon-woo was also precious to him, but Seon-woo needed to separate from his Hyung a little bit.
“What happened with the director?”
“You mean Kim Cheol-soo.”
"Unn."
Director Cheol-soo is said to have been taken aback by the situation in the United States, which was going differently than expected. And it seemed like he was going around meeting this person to somehow preserve his position, but it didn't seem to have any effect.
“I could easily pull him down from his seat now."
“So you’re saying you can change the director?”
"Yes."
“So Choi Moo-hyuk will become the director?”
“Not really.”
Do-jin intervened in the conversation between Seon-woo and Hyeon-woo.
“Choi Moo-hyuk is too young to become the director. I think we need to appoint someone else before that.”
“Who?"
“That’s up to Choi Moo-hyuk to take care of. We will help, but you will have to find the talent yourself.”
“Well, you have to do that yourself.”
Hyeon-woo nodded. In this way, the situation was being sorted out.
“Then all you have to do is attend the funeral one last time and then go back.”
“That’s right.”
This time, a joint funeral will be held for the awakened people and citizens who died unjustly. Although they died, they decided to award medals and pensions to their remaining family members.
“What happens to the Guardian Guild now?”
Most people in the Phoenix Guild have left and only a few remain. It was because the guild leader, Bacardi, was a villain. So it wasn't hard to guess that the Guardian Guild would be similar.
“Are they going to disband?”
“For now, it looks like the Guardian Guild will disappear. But it is said that the remaining people will band together and create a new guild.”
The eyes of the people looking at the Guardian Guild became harsh, but they still came together again for a value that they could not give up.
[Justice]
For that one word.
“It won’t be easy.”
"That’s true. Because there will be prejudice. Still, they chose to try."
Do-jin smiled and answered. There are people who stand up even when everything falls apart and they have no choice but to give up. That is why the world can continue to move forward.
The funeral was held in a solemn atmosphere. More than half of the coffins were empty, but it was still enough to bring out the sadness and will of the people. Hyeon-woo, wearing a black suit, was looking at it all.
“Alberg.”
"Yes."
“You too, go back now.”
“Aren’t you being too cold-hearted?”
“Miriel decided to go back as soon as you do. “I may not be able to return to Ainas.”
Ainas bore too much resentment. The situation was not suitable to send it back like this. She will probably die here.
“I can’t go. Where should I go without you?”
“Alberg, you know who I like.”
“Yes, you like Han Do-jin. A meaningless life that will one day perish.”
"It’s okay. When that time comes, I’ll go with you.”
“You can live much longer if you come with me.”
Hyeon-woo chuckled at those words.
“That’s not what I want.”
"Okay."
Albert looked up at the sky for a moment.
'Should I take him by force?'
Afterwards, without the fairy's interference, Hyeon-woo cannot return on his own.
“Don’t think of strange things.”
“I didn’t think of anything strange.”
“How can I believe that?”
Hyeon-woo waved his hand.
“What if I don’t go back?”
“We’ll have to force you to return.”
This was a funeral, so it wasn't appropriate to fight. So, I will drag you somewhere else and fight.
"Good."
Alberg smiled sadly. I want to get my hands on Hyeon-woo, but I don’t want to be hated by him. That's why I decided to have a little patience. Isn’t the life of a demon long anyway?
“I’ll go back now. But i will come back someday. I will definitely go with you then, so be prepared.”
“Do you think I’ll follow suit when that happens?”
“Then I will really take you by force.”
I will take you even if I have to kill you or just embrace your soul.
'A human's life is 100 years anyway.'
Although awakened live a little longer, it is still an extremely short period of time compared to demons.
“Aah, you are amazing!”
As soon as Alberg makes his decision, a fairy appears from somewhere Bong! and appeared.
“As expected, it’s Hyeon-woo! You're so good at persuading Alberg!"
“Okay, take me quickly.”
"Yes! I’ll open the door!”
The fairy spread his hands wide and drew a circle. Then, a portal appeared in the air that a person could pass through.
“Then finally.”
Albert came closer and kissed Hyeon-woo. It happened so quickly that he couldn't avoid it.
"You!"
“This is the last time, so please forgive me for this.”
Before Hyeon-woo could swing his fist, Albert passed through the portal. Now the only one left was Miriel. Unlike Alberg, who only returned her body, Miriel had a large baggage. When asked what it was, he answered calmly.
“Ga-jun took care of it.”
It looks like you've been enjoying life here quite a bit? There are more than one thing you like here.
“I’ll meet you again someday.”
After that, Miriel left, too. The fairy who heard the word at the end cried out, "No." But Miriel had already disappeared.
"Then I'll go back, too."
"Yes."
Hyeon-woo saw off the fairy.
"Now really live the way you want it."
That was the fairy's last word.
HM: It's kinda sad… Well… although I’m happy to finish it, I do feel a void.
