{ Urgent Quest – Ordeal }

Oops, because of someone’s trick, an S-class monster has appeared on the island. Can you really stop it?

Clear conditions – Many people will die if you leave the S-class monster alone. Join forces to stop the monster and become the hero of this case. (However, clearing is recognized only when your contribution is 50% or higher. Current contribution – 0%)

Reward – Permanent Skill Acquisition Ticket x 2, Skill Enhancement Ticket x 10, Synchronization Potion x 20, Unique Skill – ‘Resurrection’

Penalty for Failure – ???

=

It was a huge reward.

Two Permanent Tickets and ten Enhancement Tickets.

Up to twenty synchronization potions.

I gulped.

The aforementioned rewards are huge, but the one I was most interested in was the skill called ‘Resurrection’.

Doesn’t normal resurrection mean to rise from the dead?

According to my thoughts, that is a skill that must be acquired.

“…”

but.

still worrying

My level right now is probably A grade.

According to the system, that monster is S-class.

As I said before, the gap between grades is quite large.

Among them, S class is known to have the largest gap with the previous class.

It was about 10 times.

There are no S-class heroes on this island, so even if all powers attack together, victory cannot be guaranteed.

“・・・・・Whoa.”

I started calculating in my head.

Judging by the monster’s walking speed, it would take about two minutes to get here.

little time left.

There are 13 synchronization potions left.

If you put all 13 of them into one life and collect the artifacts you gave to Nari Seo…

can i win

cooong.

cooong!

Footsteps are getting closer.

The appearance of the monster, which was only visible due to the distance, was gradually revealed.

A heavy weight that shakes the earth with each step.

A giant with a huge body made of rocks.

Titan.

It is a monster that almost killed the main character once.

It’s a monster with tremendous strength, and even shoots crazy beams when it’s dangerous.

Normally, I would have sprung without even looking back, but I was hesitant because a reward was a reward.

[ Do you want to accept the quest? ]

[The moment you accept the quest, you cannot give up. ]

[ Yes / No ]

I made my judgment.

As it is, I brought my hand to the system window.

Yes and No.

I pressed the x above that diagonal.

I’m not an idiot, and given the choice, there’s no way I’ll decide on something like this right away.

I’ll fix it later

“What are you doing here! Can’t you see that?!”

Jang Ha-ra stopped in front of me and pointed at Titan.

Then he grabbed my arm and dragged me. Nari Seo, who was engrossed by the side, was also there.

However, I did not move from the spot.

Janghara called me with an anxious voice.

“······Yoo Hyeon-ah?”

Nari Seo also looks at me with a worried face.

I smiled softly and asked Jang Ha-ra.

“Hara-ya, take the lord and avoid it first.”

“… … what?”

At that time, a new model was shot overhead.

A man in a stylish black suit.

Did the hero come?

─Goooooooooo!!

Titan screamed and swung his arm at the approaching hero.

Like a hero with the ability to fly, he avoided the first blow.

The wind pressure seems to have been unexpected.

As it was, the flight became unstable, and it struggled in the air without being able to balance.

The next moment, the Titan’s second strike landed.

The hero is blown away like a baseball hit by a bat.

“······no. Hyun-ah Yoo, that’s not it.”

Jang Ha-ra, who was watching the scene, began to stop me.

Nari Seo also urged her to run away by pulling on her collar.

I said reassuringly.

“It’s not like that, so don’t worry.”

“What is not ?! You’re trying to stop yourself again. no. no way! You know there are heroes, I heard there’s even an A-class! You don’t have to…”

“… … Calm down for now.”

It’s embarrassing.

I’ll tell you, I have no intention of fighting that right now.

I’ll take a look at the bow and go, and if I think it’s worth fighting, then I’ll fight.

However, Jang Ha-ra, who had no way of knowing that, lost half of her mentality.

“Yes, if you die, I, I really…”

Janghara said almost crying.

I wanted to explain each and every one of them and soothe them.

Wow!

There wasn’t enough time to explain.

“Hara, trust me.”

I know.

The reason Jang Ha-ra stopped me was none other than ‘because it’s important’.

because.

You won’t be able to dry me to the end.

“…”

Jang Ha-ra was conflicted inside.

He looks at me once and Nari Seo once.

“Do you understand the way you speak?”

Nari Seo nodded at Jang Hara’s words.

After a bit more hesitation, Jang Ha-ra speaks to Nari Seo.

“You run away alone. I will stay here.”

Then he stood next to me.

“·······?”

It was completely unexpected words and actions.

“Wait a minute, what?”

This isn’t it.

I was very upset. To the extent that it all shows through facial expressions.

After that, Nari Seo also stood by me.

Wow!

The Titan’s footsteps were heard again.

In a hurry, I called Jang Hara again.

“Hara.”

“Quiet.”

Janghara glared at me.

resentment and disappointment.

“… … Thought I would never do this again.”

affection between them.

Suddenly, I remembered what happened at the amusement park.

Was it a similar situation back then?

He lowered his gaze and looked at Jang Hara’s hand.

Hands clenched into fists. He seemed to be trying hard to suppress his tremors.

“To me… now you are everything.”

I forgot.

Whether it’s Nari Seo or Hara Jang.

That he was a human who longed only for someone’s warm touch.

The time together was short, but the density was not.

I, who reached out that hand, became even more special to the two of them.

Much more than I thought.

That’s why he jumped into a hopeless scene himself.

“······okay.”

He nodded.

I also made up my mind.

Let’s take it for a while and come back secretly.

“Here, Hara.”

I’m trying to say let’s run away like that.

“Hey little boys. What are you guys doing there?”

I heard a woman’s voice.

Above your head again.

“Why are you guys here? Can’t you see that?”

Blue short hair and sharp eyes. and purple eyes.

Wearing only shorts and a hoodie.

“Do you jump out quickly?”

That woman, whose way of speaking and clothes made it difficult to be considered a hero, was a hero.

A-class hero Choi Yu-jin.

The future S-class hero in charge of Yoo Seo-hyun, whom we met a while ago.

Was the Class A who came here Yujin Choi?

Choi Yu-jin slowly approached Titan.

“hmm… … .”

That would be a big deal.

Well, since it’s Choi Yujin, he’ll take care of it.

“Let’s run away.”

“Uh, huh? really?”

“huh.”

I grabbed the two of them by the wrist and started running.

however.

The Titan’s gaze was fixed on us.

Soon, the eyes began to glow.

“Oh, f*ck.”

That’s like the preparation movement for the ‘ray’ I just talked about.

“…”

Choi Yu-jin must have felt that it was unusual, and was again widening her distance.

Soon, the Titan fired a beam.

I hurriedly drank the potion and summoned the artifact.

Several system messages popped up at once.

[Sync to the ninth life. ]

[ Synchronization rate is 25%. ]

[Use the skill, ‘Artifact Summon’. ]

[ Summons the artifact, ‘Sun’. ]

A shield the size of a human torso, as if soaking up the sunlight as it is, was summoned.

I set up a shield by predicting the path of the beam.

[ Activates the special option of the artifact, ‘Sun’. ]

Moments later, the beam hit the shield.

Quadd Deuk!!

It sounded like digging with a drill.

“Keep it off…!!”

I endured with a moan close to a scream.

The special options for this shield are simple.

Absorbs 90% of the shock received.

Of course, the remaining 10% of the impact is passed on to me.

“Keuheop…!!”

Even though it was only 10%, it was an unimaginable pain.

I could feel my arm being crushed in real time, and it felt like I was hitting my head with a hammer over and over again.

Even though the damage received from the life force skill was reduced, it was this much.

The beam lasted about 5 seconds longer, but felt like almost 5 hours.

Then the beam stopped.

“…”

My body and mind were in tatters, and I vomited blood.

f*ck, what is this?

I thought I had to do something, so I took out a potion.

He collapsed without even drinking the potion.

***

Took.

In front of my eyes, Lee Yoo-hyeon collapsed helplessly.

what.

What happened.

Seo Na-ri touched Lee Yoo-hyeon with a trembling hand.

“…”

Fortunately, it was hidden.

After a moment of relief, the monster’s eyes shone again.

‘What should I do…?’

I know the range because I saw it before.

It’s not a range that can be avoided by running.

Should I die like this?

Kwaaa!!

As the rays of light hit, Nari Seo wrapped her body around Lee Yu-hyeon.

“Hold him tight!!”

At the close timing, Choi Yu-jin snatched Nari Seo and Hara Jang and flew into the sky.

I couldn’t hear him telling me to grab Lee Yoo-hyeon because I couldn’t hear him, but I instinctively hugged him tightly.

Ray kept aiming for Choi Yu-jin, but could not keep up with his free-spirited flight.

however.

Cliffs and land, rocks and trees.

Fragments of what the beam destroyed splattered.

The debris was fast and small, so it was hard to see, so even Choi Yu-jin couldn’t avoid it.

pug.

Poo-wook.

A burnt twig was lodged in Nari Seo’s thigh.

Rock fragments hit Jang Ha-ra directly on the head, and something stuck in Choi Yu-jin’s shoulder.

It just fell to the floor.

Fortunately, Nari’s chain was able to alleviate the shock, but the situation was still hopeless.

“Can you run away?”

Choi Yujin asked as he stopped the bleeding on his shoulder.

Nari Seo shook her head and answered.

I couldn’t walk because the shrapnel was stuck in my leg.

“You can still go, but go as far as you can. I’ll tie it up somehow.”

Choi Yoo-jin flew up again.

His eyes stayed on Lee Yoo-hyeon for a moment, and then he rushed at the monster again.

Nari Seo moved her legs as she gritted her teeth, but only blood flowed and she didn’t use any strength.

“…”

Because of me.

I made him sacrifice Lee Yoo-hyeon because he insisted on stopping him.

Get help, get no help.

also cause damage

I was so pathetic.

Is that why?

The thought of wanting to save Lee Yu-hyeon somehow dominated Seo Nari’s mind.

‘That’s… … .’

At that time, I found a shiny object in the spot where Lee Yoo-hyeon fell.

When I wrapped it in a chain and brought it, it was a small glass bottle.

‘That’s what Yoohyeon was drinking.’

Come to think of it, Lee Yu-hyeon always drank this before fighting.

Is there some special effect?

“…”

perhaps.

If this helps…

The worry didn’t last very long.

Nari Seo opened the lid of the glass bottle and poured the liquid inside into her mouth.

Change came quickly.

pounding.

My heart was beating loudly.

─Sync to the first life.

Something without a voice or anything came into my head.

Like a wave, a certain ‘memory’ came in suddenly.

A memory never experienced.

Seo Na-ri’s gaze was fixed on Lee Yoo-hyeon as if she was being dragged.

Confusion appeared in his eyes.

With more trembling hands than before, I put my hand on Lee Yoo-hyun’s cheek.

I opened my mouth a few times.

He spat out a word in a trembling voice.

“In charge of this…?”

It was the first name I had ever called since I was born.

······It must be so.

I felt like I missed a few years.
