Acquired the Supernatural Ability to Recover Like Crazy

chapter 7



7 – Trust

Chunseong Group is a conglomerate group that stands shoulder to shoulder with the Baekwoon Group, which is famous for establishing the first hero academy.

However, in Cheonrim, Cheon was a very common surname.

In Korea, Mr. Kim (金) and Mr. Lee (李) are said to have the most number, and the Park (朴) class.

In addition, the Chunseong group is a well-known chaebol family, so its family tree is well known to the public.

If I remember correctly, none of them were named Cheonjie.

“Grandpa. Are you saying he’s from the Chunseong Group?”

“Yes.”

“How do you know that?”

“It’s the same cloth, isn’t it?”

It was indeed a trivial reason.

“No, Grandpa. Do you think that makes sense? Chun is not one or two people in the world.”

“Huh, you don’t believe me again.”

“You should have said something unfounded normally.”

Kastin would sometimes talk nonsense like an old man with dementia.

Someone killed an S-class villain,

Someone said that he killed a thousand-level monster,

The information Castin gave was information that had never appeared in comics, and had never been covered in the news.

In other words, the authenticity could not be determined.

By the way. S-class villains and thousand-level monsters are the strongest people in the top ranks of the world view. If it had happened to them, the news should have flowed through at least several people. That it is not.

‘That’s bullsh*t.’

Faith needs a basis. If that is excluded, it is nothing but blind faith.

So one day he said he would believe the story and asked for a little bit of evidence. The voice of the person doing this is the proof of that.

I gave up answering that day because it was so absurd.

“Don’t be so angry. Can you ask me directly about this? Hey, what kanji do you use for your last name?”

“We use the Chinese character for one thousand.”

“Look, it’s not the fabric you thought it was.”

That’s right, you earned another 1 loss.

Ignoring this, Castin asked again.

“Then, your aunt’s name is Yeon-joo, right?”

Natural sake. It was the name of an S-class hero who was active in Part 4 and the main character who currently leads the Chunseong group.

“…… No.”

“No? Huh.”

A strange current flowed between Cheonjiye and Castin. Something faint was reflected in his eyes.

‘What is that?’

I thought my eyes were good enough, but it was a pity that I couldn’t see them properly.

“Yeah, good. Then, your father’s name is Cheon Dong-ho, right?”

“I have no parents anymore.”

“… ….”

There was a moment of silence.

No, is this old man crazy? Even knowing that Cheon Ji-ye was found in the slum, what if her parents questioned?

If the parents are alive, it means that they were directly abandoned, or they were killed by monsters.

He already hates heroes. Look, your eyes are back.

I need to change the flow before the atmosphere gets worse.

“Jiye, are you hungry?”

I deliberately called them by their first names without their surnames to convey a friendly feeling.

“No, I am not hungry.”

Chun Ji Ye shook her head and replied.

“Really?”

“I am really not hungry!”

But just in time, Cheon Ji-ye’s stomach growled.

Hunger is a physiological phenomenon. There was no need to be ashamed. However, Chen Jiye’s ears were very red.

Biting her lip lightly, she lowered her head slightly.

“…… Hungry. Buy me some food.”

What was the change of heart? Chun Ji-ye has honestly conveyed her intentions.

“Yes, I will buy it. Let’s go eat together Oh, and grandpa too.”

“Did I eat?”

“I’ll buy you this.”

“I have to keep it here.”

“There are two people to substitute.”

Are the slums a very dangerous place? Castin was the representative, but she was not in charge of this place alone.

“That’s right, what. Instead, I am unconditionally thin.”

“Do you want to rip off your money?”

“Heh heh, you’re asking something very obvious.”

I’m young, but I’m a normal person. So when you get out of the slums, no problems arise.

But Cheon Ji-ye was an awakened person, and was kidnapped by Slender Man himself.

If you try to escape, they will always come and try to stop you. That’s why it was necessary for the hero, Castine, to accompany him.

Because Slender Man is a typical weak and weak monster.

It has the ability to instantly move a certain distance, so the heroes couldn’t catch it, but its own combat power was very weak.

In reality, Slender Man is about to be brutally murdered by a 10-year-old girl who is about to visit a slum.

One of the blessings that genius possessed was light.

‘That made my teleportation ability useless.’

With the disappearance of Slender Man, the protagonist of Part 5 escapes from the slums. Afterwards, the episode continues as he meets a character in another helper position. That’s the original.

I was walking. The orphans abandoned in the slums peeked out his face, probably feeling his presence.

“…… Are you going to rescue them too?”

“Yes. Once found, it must be rescued. But even if you rescue them every day, there really is no end.”

The number of children abandoned every day in 13 slums is estimated to be around 10. Among them, only one or two are rescued by the hero.

The rest die in poor conditions or live as members of the slums.

This world is truly rotten.

Away in the distance, a tree caught my eye. There was a bullet lodged in a really strange shape.

‘Faith?’

It seems that gangsters in the slums really have nothing to do to put such a phrase into a tree.

***

According to her family’s policy, Cheon Ji-ye has handled various weapons since she was young. Among them were guns. It was a blatant lie when she said that she had never been caught.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she never got used to the firearms she used to handle back then.

But when I caught Tommy, it felt different.

With this, you can always hit the target at any distance. I felt that confidence.

In fact, even the shot that made a loud bang hit exactly where Chun Ji-ye was aiming.

She thought that Bi Eun-Hyeon couldn’t guess because she didn’t know exactly where Cheon Ji-Ye was aiming for.

The more intelligent a child is, the more suspicious he is. This is because they see through the essence of the world being dirty and ugly.

Moreover, Cheon Ji-ye was betrayed and ostracized at school.

She said it made it harder for her to trust anyone but her family.

Cheon Ji-ye was very suspicious of Bi Eun-hyeon.

She had no choice but to be in her position.

A monster suddenly appeared. After losing his parents, he suddenly appeared in front of him who was stuck in a garbage dump.

They are obviously of similar age, but their behavior is even more resolute than most adults.

More than anything else, I know in detail the performance of the divine protection that prevented leakage to the outside.

I was really suspicious of everything.

She said that if you hit a monster, she’ll tell you coolly, but in the end, it’s just her shoes.

There was no coercion, and it was possible to lie.

So Chun Ji-ye did not hit the monster. Rather, she passed the time by carving letters into wood.

The reason for this was that I liked her posture correction time more than I thought, but the biggest thing for her was that she wanted a dangerous situation to come.

The owner knows best about the performance of the divine protection.

With just one shot, a monster of that level could stop any amount of movement.

So, I wanted to check his nature that would explode in a really tense situation.

‘I don’t know why, but you’re trying to use my divine protection?’

Chun Ji-ye was sure. She did, and as soon as she confirmed the boy’s true nature, she intended to repay him.

The moment the wall was broken, the result was different from what was expected.

What the girl, united by suspicion and malice, finally confirmed was the boy’s silent ‘sacrifice’.

I was wrapped up and hugged. It was laid underneath, thoroughly protected from danger.

My heart felt a pounding at this time.

I felt my pulse quicken and my face heat up.

At the same time, I couldn’t hide my excitement.

I didn’t want to show this kind of face to the boy.

So even after the situation ended, he clung to Bi Eun-hyeon’s back. But because she did, she saw the boy’s back stabbed by shrapnel.

Her mouth was so messed up that even the hood oozes blood.

‘Ah….’

How painful was it? Even so, she doesn’t show it, and she doesn’t even blame herself.

‘It’s just like her older sister.’

Even though he must have been in trouble because of himself as a tomboy, he always comforted himself first. Family.

Doubt had turned to faith, and malice to guilt.

“Hey, what Chinese character do you use for your last name?”

Four surnames, at that question, Chun Ji Ye woke up. It was a question she really didn’t want to answer.

If it was the same as usual, “I don’t know!” After she shouted that, she must have fled flying her falcon.

But the old man seemed to be familiar with Bi Eun-hyeon. She couldn’t hate a character like that.

Cheon Ji-ye remembered that day.

A father who knelt down and prayed, and a mother who cried beside him. Her own family was ousted from the Chunseong family. I don’t know why. But she knows that she had to drop her last name in the process.

So, she answered the old man’s question like this. She said that she is not Heaven.

“Then, your aunt’s name is Yeon-joo, right?”

She lied to the second question.

Although she was kicked out, it was because her aunt’s name was correct.

Then the old man gave me a fierce look. He even felt like he was trying to see through himself.

After that, telepathy flew in.

It was a psychic power that was known to be used only by a very small percentage among the Awakened.

[You have a lot to hide. Don’t ask me one more question Think carefully and answer.]

A tone of admonition. The old man called his father’s name again, wondering where he had known it this time.

He didn’t want to lie this time. The old man’s eyes were frightening for that.

Chun Ji-ye was very worried. After thinking about it, she came up with her trick. With this, she can evade the truth without spouting lies.

“I have no family anymore.”

In other words, I am an orphan.

It hasn’t been long since that happened. When I think of the events of that day, I still get mad at them. But there was no such thing as just this one.

As expected by Cheon Ji-ye, the old man was silent. And Bi Eun-hyeon also made an expression of not knowing what to do. And then.

“Jiye, are you hungry?”

I have been asking that question.

It was unexpected given the flow of the conversation, but Chun Ji-ye was strangely happy.

Because I felt that Bi Eun-hyeon cared about me.

We met for the first time today. I don’t know why she is good at it. Still, I wanted to believe it.

Even if it’s blind.
