115 Tue-Everyone Has a Side (3)

“You can make another choice.”

“It doesn’t make sense. At least for now,”

“under…”

Early in the morning, Kang Do-yeon, the younger brother, prepared to leave. I knew it, but I let out a sigh.

Crossing the gate, they are going back to Redrium, where the corps’s headquarters is located.

“Even the false daily life that can be gained by disguising cannot last forever if it goes on like this. This is my choice. As a submind of the corps, I work for the corps and for all of us. It’s efficient.”

The boy’s will was strong. I am about to say goodbye to my mother right now. I know what that feeling is like now.

“I’ll open the gate.”

Eve opened the gate in the corner of the room.

I could see the barren and dry landscape beyond the gate, and the nest of the legion that was occupying it.

“Take care of yourself.”

“Anyway, can we all know each other? Oppa and I are the same.”

Gang Do-yeon, who smiled, crossed the gate. Immediately after that, the gate was closed in an instant, leaving only silence in the room for a moment.

“Do-yeon Kang is already one with us, so there is no reason to worry.”

“He’s already changed so much. That’s not what I’m worried about.”

“Well, Kang Do-yeon’s way of thinking is still close to that of a human being.”

Eve was taking it for granted, but I had no choice but to react differently.

Gradually becoming dull and calm is not necessarily a good look.

[Then survive and win]

“…”

The letters flickered in front of me. Even Eve, who became one and shared all of me, could not see these words.

A stumbling block planted hostage in my soul as Eve described. It will definitely have an impact.

“Did Doyeon go…?”

“Don’t worry too much. Like I said, I’ll come back just fine.”

“Is the kid next to Doyeon a friend? Are you… doing the same thing?”

As I was about to leave the house, my mother, who was sitting in the living room blankly, looked at Eve and spoke to me.

“…yes.”

I calmed Eve and answered with difficulty.

Then the mother got up from her seat, came to her, and grabbed Eve’s hand.

Contrary to the startled me, Eve’s expression did not change at all. There was no emotion at all.

Just be still as I told you to be still.

“Take care of yourself.”

The mother, who thought of Eve as her daughter who had just left, expressed her sincere concern.

Kang Do-yeon was just poking around, but in fact, her mother must have sensed it to some extent.

So, in a way, it was a natural thing that parents could see.

‘I also don’t understand. I am not this woman’s precious existence.’

‘…you just need to know. That my mother is on your side you can trust.’

‘My side.’

Perhaps he succeeded in convincing her, but Eve was quiet even when her mother finally hugged her.

We left the house and got back into the car.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. It was all because of me. It shouldn’t be like this. I shook my head and caught my breath.

You don’t have to be so fragile anymore.

Now that I became one with Eve, I needed to think and act like Eve to some extent.

“Let’s go. The branch isn’t too far away.”

I cleared my mind and drove the car to the branch of the Guardian Alliance to which I belong.

Now that it was time to move in earnest, there was no time to worry about anything else.

“There’s a lot of information, but 99% of it is garbage.”

As the car traversed the road, Eve sat next to her and browsed the Internet on her phone.

However, contrary to expectations, Eve judged most of the information on the Internet as ‘not worth remembering or useful’.

In fact, if it was Eve now, it was enough.

Because most of the information about Earthlings created by Earthlings was not even worth considering for Eve anymore.

“The various martial arts schools that appeared in modern times.”

Of course, there was also information that I thought was helpful.

“arrived.”

The branch was in the middle of a bustling city.

Although it is actually an exhibition now, economic activities continue as it is not a general exhibition situation.

That is why the faces of the people who were busy walking around the streets were not so bright.

In the beginning, it was an era when news of war was reported every day at home and abroad.

“I’m waiting over there.”

“Is that human?”

While parking in the parking lot of the building site, I saw a person outside the building. Although he was not very tall, he was the team leader Baek Jong-hoon with a solid body and a rough impression.

Eve was wary of him. No, to be honest, I was wary of all humans.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Jong-Hoon Baek, the 1st Team Leader of the Seoul Branch of the Guardian Alliance.”

“…”

Baek Jong-hoon, who came to us, immediately approached Eve and held out his hand.

Of course… Eve didn’t take the hand. Rather, I tried to wrinkle my face in a harsh way, but I closed it.

He gently lowered his hand. Then he grabbed me and whispered.

“What did I do wrong?”

“I told you before. Uh… he’s a kid with a story.”

“Even if everything else is the same, it’s okay if you have mental problems. It’s a matter of dealing with force. We need to start treatment.”

“It’s just that I’m a little reluctant to others. I’ll take good care of it.”

was momentarily chilled. cure? The moment Eve is put into a psychiatric hospital for treatment, the Earth will immediately be at war with another large force.

“…Okay. First, let’s start with your skills. To be honest, I’m curious. Because I was able to know enough from that short video.”

Fortunately, he somehow managed to get over it, strange enough and suspiciously, as I expected.

“let’s go.”

“…I’m sure you’re listening well. A kid rescued from the scene? I mean.”

As I beckoned, Eve slowly approached me.

When Baek Jong-hoon saw that, he tilted his head and entered the building first.

“It’s a simple way to measure. It’s a fighter like you, right?”

“Yes.”

We went straight to the training ground in the basement.

Literally, it is a space specially made for training close to actual practice, and it is a spacious place built quite sturdy.

‘What is Mutupa?’

‘Isn’t that information yet? Simply put, it means a kind that exhibits form power in a form other than the status window or ability.’

While Baek Jong-hoon was preparing a few things, I answered Eve’s questions. The Mutu faction, which appeared with the Guardian Alliance, was called hundreds of thousands of times more than the existing hunters.

Even without the protection of the status window, it is possible to demonstrate superhuman powers only through training. Of course, it also requires talent, but it was a ray of light and a miracle for those who yearned for the power to fight anyway.

“How about this?”

At that time, Baek Jong-hoon, who was ready, brought a mannequin. It was no ordinary mannequin.

In the blue suit I was wearing, my forehead twitched for a moment.

In fact, I’ve seen it many times before, but how can I forget it anyway? It was that suit that was made into a living corpse that could only be saved by harming my younger brother and sending it to the corps in the end.

The Alliance’s full-body reinforced nanosuit.

Obviously, a player belonging to that alliance leaked information about the Earth, and the alliance’s battleship had been warped.

A giant space battleship of a space force that has been warped? Even now, countries around the world are trying to line up for the federation separately.

Because of that, the match that the player’s units had on wearing suits was dismissed as an accident in the search process. Even in broad daylight people were horribly killed and injured.

‘dare…’

To my boiling rage, Eve responded. Eve’s eyes flashed and she stared at the suit.

“There is nothing like this as a reference point. The martial arts class differs depending on how much damage they inflict on this suit. The training method is coveted.”

Baek Jong-hoon, unaware of our circumstances, put down his suit and continued talking.

I apologized to him inwardly. That suit is still quite valuable, but is it really possible to self-repair?

“Try it all you can…”

Before he could finish speaking, Eve slammed the ground and punched her.

The shock wave that exploded cracks and cracks the floor, and I, who was standing next to me, are pushed aside.

The energy shield, as well as the body, were shattered and the pieces of the suit rolled on the floor, he fell to the floor and blinked his wide eyes.

Apparently, it was a little late to understand the situation,

“Team leader. As for the next assignment, I’m planning to start working right away. Maybe we can go to the Demon Realm together.”

I smiled before he came to his senses and pushed his next plan.

“You really don’t want to disguise your name?”

“If it doesn’t affect the stomach, absolutely. It’s a sacred and precious name. It’s the only word that defines me.”

“…just call me a mixed race foreigner.”

The lecture process is over. Seeing the suit shattered, Baek Jong-hoon, who was bloodshot, said that he would take more tests and attacked directly by moving his talent, the wind.

And he was thoroughly smashed on the spot by Eve with the sword. A pure fighter who can destroy A-class hunters without the help of this ability is still rare.

It meant he had to admit it.

“He is weak. He has little depth or experience.”

“You, no, we’re unique. The team leader is an active hunter with enough experience.”

I shook my head as I looked at Eve who said it was insignificant.

The scary thing about the Legion is that all individuals share the acquired knowledge and experience.

Eve’s experience was only a few months, but there were countless wars and enemies she had defeated in those months.

With all that experience, Eve’s ability was already close to being a fighter who was not perfect.

“Anyway, it seems that the first step in our plan has been successful.”

I handed Eve a red badge and a small card.

Eve took it slowly, putting the badge on her shirt like I did on my coat.

The card was a kind of license. Like a hunter, a permit to carry a weapon and to use it in case of emergency.

“Look. Now you are a part of this society.”

I smiled and showed Eve’s profile picture I just took on my phone.

His name is Eve, and he is estimated to be 17 years old, and he was rescued with no memory due to unknown origin. The weapon used is a sword.

That was Eve’s new identity.
