Chapter 621 Night Of Battle. =========================================================================

“So, what brings you here all of a sudden?”

After moving away from the tent that Kushan had prepared, Kim Yu-hyun looked at the users who came to her and said. In fact, I felt a little tired and wanted to get bitten, but the users in front of me were also Clan Roads in the North. First of all, there is no need to blush over useless matters as it is a cooperative relationship.

Of course it was the same with the Northern Clan Roads.

“That’s….”

A man started slightly and looked carefully at Kim Yu-hyun for a moment. Then he opened his mouth in an unbounded manner.

“It’s time to…I think it’s time for you to tell me..”

“What?”

“Oh, of course, I’ve heard a lot of stories and instructions about giants.What is it, uh…I mean… Does it mean that you want to know the purpose more clearly? Hahaha….”

“…Aha.”

Kim Yu-hyun smiled as if she knew what he meant. Then the man, who talked about something stinging, hurriedly shakes his head and hands.

“Oh, I’m telling you beforehand that this is not a complaint at all. It doesn’t mean I don’t believe it. Just out of curiosity, or pure curiosity….”

The position of commander-in-chief of an expedition team is similar to that of the head of the state. When you do well, you are admired and praised by everyone, but when you can’t, you are also criticized and suspected. Wasn’t the successful golden lion also heavily criticized for failing a single expedition?

In that sense, however, Kim Yu-hyun has been doing well so far. That’s very. That’s why these Clan Roads are being careful right now. What do you mean by conditional trust? If the march had failed repeatedly, it would have been the opposite.

“Haha, I see.”

“If you were offended….”

“No, I was actually thinking that we’d better have a full-fledged meeting.”

“Oh, really?”

Is it because I heard a positive answer? The man who brought it up has clearly brightened up. Kim Yu-hyun still nodded without smiling.

“It may seem like too much to ask, but you trusted me and gave me full support. I am truly grateful for this.”

“Come on, no. Don’t say that.I brought him to hand over all the powers in the first place. It’s obvious.”

“I’d appreciate it if you said that. Anyway, the day of the showdown is slowly approaching. Before that, we need to have a meeting to organize everything….”

“…….”

It was only when Kim Yu-hyun blurted the end of her words that the user’s face began to feel nervous. The day of the showdown is approaching. What this means was obvious.

“Before that.”

then

“You know what?”

Suddenly.

“By any chance, do you like plays?”

Kim Yu-hyun’s mouth had a smile that looked slightly different from before.

“…Yes?”

Perhaps because it was out of the blue, the users looked puzzled.

Kim Yoo-hyun opened her mouth.

“I’m sure you all know I’ve spent a lot of time with that giant.”

“Yes, yes, that’s right.”

“By the way, I just heard a very interesting story.”

“……?”

Funny story? Users who did not know the English language took turns looking at each other with even more puzzled faces.

“I mean, I want to get your help one more time before the meeting.”

Kim Yu-hyun, who said so, suddenly stuck out her tongue and put saliva on her dry mouth.

…It seems that brothers and sisters have the same habits.

*

Some time has passed.

The sunset, when the afternoon was announced, also sets in, and dark dusk takes over. The evening has come.

Tuck.

Suddenly, a raindrop fell from the sky. Droplets and drops of water continued to wet the ground. It started to rain.

Hudders, hudders!

Within a long time, the mountain range was filled with the sound of raindrops.

“…….”

Slowly turning his eyes, Kushan stared at the entrance to the tent.

Except for the sound of rain, the surroundings were calm. The puddles are pooled on the gradually wet ground, and the air that is gradually getting colder touches the flesh. In fact, for a giant, it was cooler than colder…Strangely, Kushan’s heart is as lonely as a puddle of joy on the ground.

It wasn’t sad. It’s a different kind of feeling from him.

I mean, loneliness, you know?

In the past, Kim Yu-hyun would have come in by now. Look at that, smiling at the tent, he would have put down a bucket full of stew. Then, they would sit face to face, eat together, and share stories about the human world or their father.

However, even though it has been a long time since dinner came, Kim Yu-hyun can’t even see her nose, let alone eat.

Although recently, Kim Yu-hyun and Kushan have definitely had a close relationship in recent years. It was possible because they were intelligent and lived in a society.

That is, as a human being, or as a giant of a human being. Kim Yu-hyun treated the giant not just as such a monster, but as an equal person with intelligence.

The human race is….’

Suddenly, what Kushan said came to his mind.

‘Strong, very strong. Although individuals may seem to be mere creatures, human strength is responsible for tremendous adaptability and endless evolution.’

While we have limited the future in exchange for the war we have fought, humans are a race that pioneered the future endlessly. It’s a species that’s allowed to evolve.’

I’m not denying the battle. However, the perception that we are the best is wrong because we reject each other unconditionally like now. If we stay like this, the only thing waiting at the end of the road will be destruction.’

‘The glory of the past is only the past. If you stay still, you’ll fall behind. If we’re to survive, if we’re to go further, if we’re to regain our former glory, we’ve got to be different now. That’s why I have to go out.’

The position of the giant king of the war.

There is no denying the battle, but an unconditional battle must be avoided. To survive, one must not settle for the present, but must evolve. If we can’t solve the problem ourselves, we should get outside help. Just like an ancient lady once did.

For this reason, the former Kushan Thor went out, and he was a young Kushan who was raised by such a father.

Since then, humans have entered the Iron Mountains themselves, although years have passed since their father left.

The images of the humans Kushan had been portraying exactly what his father had said. Although individuals were weak, they certainly had differences in the way they lived. Since we learned the concept of “prisoner” for the first time after we were captured by humans in the first place, we can’t breathe if we put it another way.

So, I thought it was possible. I don’t know the glory of the past that my father ultimately aimed for, but I thought at least there was a chance to change. I heard so…

In a single battle, everything went down like a bubble. The eyes of humans who looked at Kushan after the war were tantamount to proof that there was an insurmountable gap between the two species.

Trudging.

It was then.

(Hmm, are you here?)

Kushan suddenly walked into the tent as Simuruk bowed his head. Kushan, who raised his head to see if it was Kim Yu-hyun, felt curious about the company he had never seen before.

(It’s rice. It suddenly rained, so the meal was a little late.)

The man, who spoke bluntly, put the pot down in front of Kushan and memorized the spell briefly. After a while, the rope tied to Kushan’s arm slid off. But for Kushan, it wasn’t rice that mattered now.

(Well, can you talk to me?)

Of course, I’m the one who made this crystal ball.)

The man tapped two crystal ball around his neck and sat as far away from Kushan as possible, saying, “Never mind, just eat quickly.” As if they were watching. Kushan stared at the pot for a moment and turned to the man.

(I….)

(Huh?)

When the man turned his eyes, Kushan carefully opened his mouth.

Is he not coming today?)

(He? Oh, the Commander-in-Chief is very busy.)

(Commander-in-chief?)

(I just think he’s the tallest human being here. And now he’s in a very important meeting. Right next to the tent.)

Said the man, pointing in the direction of his back.

Kushan opened his mouth again.

(That’s the meeting.Does it take a long time?)

I don’t know. I guess so.)

(Well, I’ll wait until it’s over, so…).)

You’re so persistent. Whether it takes a short time or a long time, just eat it. I’m having this meeting because of you in the first place….)

It was when Kushan’s request was annoying and the man frowned with a feeble tantrum.

(User Yang Gi-duk! I think you should come out for a moment!)

At that moment, someone was heard shouting loudly outside.

What is it? Is it urgent?)

(I’m calling, so I think you’ll have to hurry!)

Damn it. Who else is calling?)

(Come on…!)

Yang Gi-deok grumbled and raised himself up.

(Hey, you. I’ll be back for a while, so eat well.)

Then, he put the crystal ball around his neck on the ground and immediately left the tent.

It took so little time, but the stew in the pot didn’t shrink at all, just steaming up. The upper body is unfastened, but Kushan is staring out of the entrance like before, with his hands still intact. The surroundings are still calm, and only the sound of rain hitting the ground is heard.

Then at some point.

Bang!

That doesn’t make any sense right now?!)

Suddenly, a loud voice full of mana rang in my ears at the same time as the sound of hitting something hard. Kushan’s surprised mind passes by what the man said earlier.

And he’s in a very important meeting right now. Right next to the tent.’

I’m having a meeting because of you..’

Kushan’s eyes immediately turned to the side of the tent and fell into the shining crystal ball that the man had left behind. Soon the head tilted to the side as much as possible.

I can’t believe you’re going back here! What nonsense are you talking about?)

(Attack is just around the corner. Are you out of your mind, Commander?)

Many voices are heard, but Kim Yu-hyun’s voice is not heard yet.

(Well, as you’ve all seen today….)

Coincidentally, however, Kim Yu-hyun’s voice was heard just in time.

(Sorry, the power of the giant exceeded my expectations. I didn’t expect it to be this strong.)

(Now that’s what I’m talking about…)No, didn’t you say you wanted to talk to a giant not too long ago? Didn’t you say you’d be able to attack it without a fight?

(Yes, it was.) But as you can all see today, our greatest warrior has been devastated by the giant. However, according to the giant, there are 800 more giants stronger than him…It’s my perfect mistake.)

(That’s frustrating. Then you should have told me earlier! What have you been up to with him? Did you have a crush on him?

“What I’ve told you…Are you saying everything?’

It was Kushan, who, of course, had some expectations, felt a bit of betrayal. But it can’t be helped. Humans are currently in the position of targeting this mountain range.

(Well, let’s all calm down.) This is how things are now, what can I do if I just get angry?)

(Right, it’s not just the Commander-in-Chief.) We didn’t expect a giant to be this strong.)

This time, unlike before, voices were heard defending Kim Yu-hyun.

(I’ve already wasted too much time. Rather than wasting more time getting angry with each other here, I think it’s time to make a decision.)

(So, you’re saying we’re gonna give up the attack here?)

I can’t help it. Life is more important than attack. It would be the best decision to retreat for now.)

(Don’t let others down too much. There’s a saying that’s a tactical retreat, right? We didn’t fail, we just needed time to reorganize.)

Operationally retreating? Reorganization?

What does this mean? Kushan instinctively focused on hearing and listened.

(That’s absolutely right. Of course, I admit that giants are strong. But isn’t that only 800? In terms of numbers, we are absolutely superior.)

(It’s not to the point of superiority. What’s the strength of a human being? Although there are only 5,000 people now, we can go back and gather more troops and try again. Honestly, if you use a little bit of strength, you can easily collect 50,000 or more than 100,000 hearts.)

(I assure you, more than 100,000 is possible. That’s not all. It’s easy to come back, and you can create other magic and tools to deal with giants.)

(That’s right, so if we step back for a while now, we’ll definitely win in a few months…)Oh, no. I’m sorry… oh, I can definitely destroy a giant. Hmm.)

Kung and Kushan’s hearts sank.

At first, I was only thinking of eavesdropping out of curiosity, but when I heard it, there were serious stories coming and going.

Aside from everything else, Kushan, who has always lived by hundreds of thousands, was beyond measurement. Even if there were about 10 people earlier, Kushan could not be confident if 100 people, or hundreds, jumped at the same time. In addition, if you add magic and tools, what humans say is never wrong.

‘Oh, what do I do?’

(Oh, and I’ll take that giant, too. Apparently you’re very interested in humans, but let’s coax them away and get additional information to deal with giants, whether torture or dissection.)

(I’ll put it another way.) I’m sure the commander-in-chief will take this role.

At that moment, Kushan felt like he was out of breath at the constant sound of words. Because I thought I knew who that giant was talking about.

And a little later.

(I….)

Kushan clenched his teeth unknowingly at the familiar voice that was heard quietly.

(Phew….)

The sound of words, which had been heard in a short time, was not immediately finished, but was clouded by a sigh as if it had been heard earlier.

Kushan gulped down and focused all his nerves on hearing. Even if I try not to, the days I spent with Kim Yoo-hyun keep coming to my mind. What kind of answer will Kim Yoo-hyun give?

I’ll say, “I will.”?’

After such a brief silence.

(Personally…) I’d like you to release the giant….)

(What, what?)

Kim Yu-hyun’s voice, which was barely heard, was buried in a voice of great surprise.

But at least Kushan could hear for sure. The proof was that both eyes became the size of a fire lantern.

(although he’s a giant…)Kushan is….)

And that was the moment.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise of the ground flowed into Kushan’s ears.

============================ Review of the work ============================

Night Of Battle.

Start the part of the night of the showdown. There are a total of four episodes planned, and the next part of this part is the final part of the third region attack. It’s a lot smaller compared to the 2nd area attack, right? 🙂

And Kim Soo-hyun is scheduled to appear in the next episode, but it’s not a significant appearance. The significant appearance you want is scheduled for the fourth episode, the last of this part.

Then have a good night, everyone. _(__)_
