26. I want to escape… ? Can I help you… ? (2)
“… I think I need some explanation, Hare.”
I hoped
I never thought something like this would happen at home.
I remembered the past before coming here.
I was on my way to Minerva’s library.
[Lee, Lee Jun-woo! Do you think something big is about to happen? Won’t you go home right now? What is Lee Jun-woo’s choice?]
[One. Go home immediately.]
[2. Ignore it and head to the library.]
‘What is this?’
he told me to come
What the hell are you talking about, going home all of a sudden?
However, judging from Minerva’s urgent words, it didn’t seem like a joke.
If it’s a real joke, it’s because the problem is mixed with half words.
When it comes to important questions, Minerva uses honorifics.
‘… Then, does that mean now is important?’
First, quickly turn your body backwards.
I checked the answer to question 1.
The moment Hare helped Estiya escape was captured in the future.
However, Hare’s expression as he watched Estiya from below was unusual.
In her hand was a button that turned on electricity.
‘This is dangerous.’
If not, the Hero party might collapse.
Hare tried to press the switch that made the current flow.
That moment.
‘As seen in the future, exactly the same.’
widely-
today.
In my hand, as I saw in the future, there was a current switch that Hare was about to press.
I didn’t dare to see the future of #2, but maybe if I didn’t know anything and chose #2…
‘Estiya is 100% dead. And, the subjugation of the Demon King of the Hero Party must have ended in failure.’
A future that should never happen.
And, Hare who was going to do it.
“Oh, man, that’s not it…”
I had to scold her for making a face of regret.
Previously.
‘… First of all, we must stop Estiya from escaping.’
Even if the current doesn’t flow, if you accidentally fall from there, you might die.
He made eye contact with Estiya, who was sitting on the top of the fence.
“Oh, don’t come! I mean leave me alone! Hey, this kidnapper brother! I am not afraid of the Goddess-”
“Noisy, Estiya.”
“Oh, no! Don’t catch it! Aww-!!”
Noisy like a monkey
He lifted Estiya, who was about to cross the barbed wire, on his shoulder.
It was noisy.
Carrying such a noisy Estiya, he approached Hare.
“… Hare.”
“B, yes… Ah, uncle… Mr.”
Hare withdrawn excessively as if frightened.
He put his hands together in front of him, took a polite posture, and tears were dripping down on the floor.
I said coldly to such Hare.
“During my absence, you were trying to do something funny.”
“Oh, no… Eh… Jae, not for fun… ”
“Don’t make excuses, Hare. First… ”
I guess I’ll have to put Estiya down and talk just the two of us.
As he uttered those words, Hare’s body trembled beyond counting.
He looked pitiful, but he didn’t feel sympathy.
‘… wrong is wrong whether successful or unsuccessful. The intention itself is not good.’
I wanted to go peacefully.
In this way, the hero party does not go smoothly.
It’s inevitable for Hare.
I decided to give a huge ‘punishment’.

“Hey, let this go… ! Me, I have to go to church-!!”
“Stop sleeping, Estiya.”
“Eh-”
tuk-
My ears hurt.
After knocking out Estiya, I headed straight to Luna’s room.
The door was opened with a key, and the magic barrier that had fixed the door was also released.
‘… Saten?’
Saten must never have helped Estiya because she was pitiful.
Perhaps, it seemed that Hare, who seemed to be the mastermind behind this incident, had roasted and boiled Saten.
I don’t know what method was used, but I can ask Saten directly later.
For more information…
“Huh, ah, mister… I’m sorry… yo… whoops… ”
You can ask Hare directly, who is following me.
Wiping the tears with my hands, I barely followed Hare.
She shed so many tears that she was afraid of dehydration.
First of all, I carried Estiya into Luna’s room.
Luna, who was sitting in the chair, popped out with her eyes wide open.
“mister! Estiya… What is it? What is Estiya’s condition like this?”
“I was stunned.”
“yes? Well, from the point of view of a kidnapper, escaping is something to be angry about… I will understand.”
Luna tried to understand this case from my point of view as a kidnapper.
Even though he was the one responsible for the kidnapping.
It was a fairly heroic act.
by the way.
“Luna. Why didn’t you try to escape?”
“Yes, yes? Me?”
“Yeah, you. Why didn’t you try to escape when you had the chance?”
This was a bit surprising.
Luna must have been exhausted from the hard training.
If there was a chance, he could have escaped with Estiya.
‘Why the hell didn’t you escape?’
As a kidnapper.
I wondered why Luna didn’t escape.
“Eh, ah, that’s it… ”
Luna scratched her head for a moment.
Then, with a slight blush on his face, he answered.
“Yeah, money is coming… ? If I get out of here, support for my family will be gone. He also knows the addresses of our families, but he doesn’t know what to do… ”
“Do I look like that?”
“Oh, no, that’s what I mean! Oh, never! It’s not that I didn’t escape because I liked this place! Just, money! It’s because of the money! You know? Never get me wrong!”
Luna poured out her words with a rapid-fire cannon.
And, I liked the reason that Luna didn’t escape.
‘It’s because of the money… ‘
Exactly, my family is the reason.
It is very commendable that Luna did not escape despite the opportunity.
So, I decided to give Hare a ‘punishment’, but give Luna a ‘reward’.
In front of Hare, who regrets it, looking directly at him.
“Luna, you did well.”
“… Yeah? Why is my uncle complimenting me… ? Is today the day the world will perish? ?”
I didn’t praise Luna too much.
However, now was the time to praise.
bitter-
“You did very well. Despite the opportunity, without escaping. In that sense, I will reduce the intensity of training from tomorrow.”
“to?! Ji, really..?! Well, that’s not a lie… ?!”
“Of course, don’t start swordsmanship training tomorrow. And for the family… ”
From now on, don’t pay another 500,000 ferries.
At that sound, Luna’s blue eyes sparkled like sapphires.
Very, very good feeling.
It looked like that.
“Gee, it’s true… !? Whoa, whoa-!! What day is it today! Uncle has changed! Wow-!”
If Luna had a tail, it wouldn’t have wobbled a lot from side to side.
She was like an excited Golden Retriever.
In contrast, Hare had an expression full of despair.

Joy and Bias Crossing.
Hare’s actions were so terribly wrong that a strong shock had to be given to correct them.
‘The act of trying to kill a person. I can never be forgiven.’
Even that was Estiya, who would become her future colleague.
Hare had to be given a strong shock so that he would never do that again.
‘This should be enough.’
I stopped stroking Luna’s hair, and decided to turn around and leave the room.
Leave Estiya to Luna.
“When Estiya wakes up, explain it well, Luna.”
“Yes, yes… ! Thank you uncle… ! No, is it correct to say thank you? ? Anyway! Thank you!”
Luna thanked and bowed her head.
“Hey, can’t you come here just once before you go?”
Then, for a moment, he sent me a hand sign asking if he had anything to say to me.
‘… What are you trying to say?’
I put my ear on at Luna’s request.
She whispered gently in my ear in a small voice.
“Ugh… Please don’t scold Hare too much… I think it was because Estiya looked pitiful… Hare is nice… ”
“It’s not good.”
kid is good
However, it is a perverse goodness.
Luna didn’t know that Hare was trying to kill Estiya, so she seemed to be saying this.
Still, I had to scold Hare, so I roughly answered ‘I understand’ to Luna’s words, and then left the room.
Quang-
The door closes.
There was silence between Hare and I.
“… ”
I went down the stairs without saying a word.
Hare followed after him.
And then, the moment we head to Hare’s room.
thump-
Hare grabbed my ankle and started begging.
“Ah, uncle… I, I, I was wrong… I-I didn’t mean to… Hey, I’m not in a good mood-“
“So, are you saying that you tried to kill your friend because you were in a bad mood?”
“Oh, no… I, I… Just because that child reports poetry… Oh, to protect the old man… !”
“Who is protecting whom? are you me That sounds so funny, Hare. It is an act of presumptuousness.”
It is an act beyond the subject.
In the first place, it was Hare who helped Estiya escape, and the biggest problem was that he sincerely tried to cause his opponent to ‘death’ in the process of rectifying what he had done.
‘The act of helping a friend escape is a good act in itself, but… ‘
The intention behind the action.
Even though Hare was bad, it was too bad.
She was never trying to save Estiya because she was pitiful.
I lay on the floor and looked down at Hare holding my ankle.
“Ugh, I’m sorry… My, I’m doing it wrong… don’t throw it away… whoops… please… ”
Weeping and begging
Hare, who thought he was kind, tried an insidious act from behind.
How should I interpret this situation?
First, I decided to get her up from the floor.
I didn’t want to keep watching.
“Wake up, Hare.”
“Sorry, I’m sorry… Hare is a bad kid… Hare is a bad kid… I’m sorry… ”
“… Ha, something else happened. Don’t ask me just one thing. I won’t ask you anything else, and I’ll hide it from the other kids, so just answer this.”
why are you
Were you trying to escape Estiya?
At that question, Hare raised her head.
And then, he answered with honesty.
“… If there are fewer people, I will be interested in myself… ”
“What does that mean?”
“Yeah, if there are four people, I’m interested… I go to the other kids… If only I was left… Interest is… It will only come to me… whoops… ”
egoistic mind.

Jealousy.
avarice.
With those feelings, Hare seemed to be trying to get the other kids out.
It was speculated that trying to kill Estiya in the process was an impulsive act.
‘Still, there is no justification for trying to kill a friend.’
I woke up Hare, who was lying on the floor.
It doesn’t mean forgiveness.
It was meant to be a ‘punishment’.
“Hare. I think you know what your fault is.”
“… B, you were wrong-”
“Wrong is not enough, Hare. A direct ‘punishment’ for this behavior is justified.”
“… Oh, uncle? Why are you hating me… ?”
I pushed Hare on the back and forced her into her room.
Then, he closed the door as if he would never open it again.
Hare’s mournful voice leaked out from the closed door.
– Oh, man… ? me, me, what is this… ?
“… Take time to think there. Don’t put the rice on time.”
-B, yes… ? Ah, uncle… ? Go, don’t go… Please don’t leave me… I’m doing it wrong… sin, sorry… ! Me, don’t leave me… ! Uncle please… ! mister… !!
Leaving behind Hare’s pleading voice, she locked her door with the key.
A knock on the door was heard, but I tried to ignore it.
Hare needed such a strong shock therapy.
‘You might be able to break your heart towards me. I will never do anything to betray my colleagues again.’
As Minerva agrees with me, he has provided an answer through a problem.
[That’s right, Jun-woo! The selfish, greedy, jealous, obsessive rogue needed a shock. It’s a great choice! In that sense, how long are you going to set the period?]
[One. Imprisoned for 7 days.]
[2. too short Imprisoned for 14 days.]
No need to worry.
“The detention is 14 days.”
Hare needed time to think.
That too a lot of time.
