chapter 14
She started walking into the abandoned building.
Outside, the police, who had arrived earlier, were inducing evacuation by prohibiting entry except for officials.
Hunters have also been contacted, so soon other hunters will come into the abandoned building.
Unlike the returnees, the Hunters had many things to consider in advance, such as what the level was after the portal occurred, so it was inevitable to be a little late.
Unless it’s a rapid portal, that’s the right response.
With that thought in mind, the moment she moved her foot, she caught on.
Shortly thereafter, a sword-shaped letter began to be engraved on the side of her neck.
[ come out. ]
And that was the moment she uttered a word.
Something slipped out of nowhere.
It was like very little cotton candy.
Close to black cotton candy, it rolled over.
At first glance, it was nothing more than cute, but Kkotbi frowned at the intense hostility felt from him.
At that moment, black cotton candy jumped into the air.
In an instant, it set thorns all over its body like a hedgehog, and it flew toward the rain of flowers as if it would grind everything.
Then, the blade tattoo engraved on the flower rain’s neck went round and round.
[ Explode. ]
Quang!
The presence of black cotton candy that exploded with a single word fell on the floor.
After seeing this, Kkotbi cleared her throat and started walking again.
Like an abandoned building, all the glass windows were broken and broken furniture was visible in the middle, but he didn’t care about the flower rain.
It was still daytime, so the sunlight coming in through the broken window was bright, and even worse, she couldn’t create a sense of fear even with an abandoned building.
‘How many floors are the portals?’
Kkotbi felt that she had to find the location of the portal first.
Dimensional species will continue to pour out until the portal is closed.
Closing the portal as soon as possible was an urgent priority.
thump.
At that moment, Flower Rain stopped when he heard the sound of heels.
What the shoes point to is clearly the sound of human footsteps.
This is an abandoned building.
You might wonder if there were any vagrants who could not escape, but unfortunately, the sound of footsteps didn’t contain the slightest bit of tension.
‘Who is it.’
maybe a hunter?
No, but it’s still too early for the Hunter to come in.
It was the moment when the flower rain, who felt something strange, slowly stretched out her feet.
Clink!
Suddenly, two people broke in with a broken window.
As soon as the startled Flower Rain was about to reflexively use her utterances, she realized that one person was an acquaintance and stopped speaking.
Instead, he hurriedly removed the tattoo from his neck and asked.
“Do, Domi oppa?”
“Uh, uh huh. Flower Rain High.”
It was none other than Kang Ha-chan.
He had his hair tied up with a frantic expression, and it was a red-haired woman he had never seen before carrying him.
But Flower Rain could vaguely know who she was.
It was Shin So-ra, a returnee like herself and Ayu’s younger sister.

‘I will never move like this again.’
After joining Flower Rain, I was holding on to the wall and groaning.
As the flower rain had gone by car, we had to catch a taxi to follow along, but Ayu said it would be slow, so he just said that he would carry it on his own.
I wondered if it would be okay to be carried by a girl, but Ayu was a returnee.
When I gave permission, wondering what the meaning of stretching out in front of a returnee was, Ayu, who returned to Cheonhongryeon, carried me through the streets.
And as soon as I did, I had to regret like crazy.
Ayu unfolded some magic and said that there would be no resistance from the wind because I was protecting myself, but the changing scenery around her was not enough to make my mind wander.
Thanks now status.
As a result of running while I was dying, I was able to get here safely, but honestly, it was an experience I did not want to go through again.
“Dammy oppa, why did you follow me?”
As soon as I had calmed down, I heard a voice asking the flower rain as if it did not understand.
Hearing that voice, I took a deep breath, straightened my back, and said proudly.
Otherwise, my legs were shaking and I felt like I was going to fall.
“What’s the fun if you just eat and break up? We need to play some more.”
Hearing those words, Kkotbi widened her eyes.
“Hurry up and let’s go second. Of course, this guy will do it, not me.”
When I said, pointing to Ayu, no, Cheonma, Cheon Hong-ryeon, the rain of flowers burst into laughter.
“What is it?”
“What is it? Guild member Jung.”
“My heart is grateful.”
The flower rain looked at me in a confused, yet ignorant way.
“… … Why did Domi oppa come with you even though you’re a normal person?”
“Oh, yes.”
Come to think of it, wouldn’t it be okay if I just waited under the floor?
With that thought in mind, when I turned to Ayu, she touched her chin and smiled softly.
“You can’t believe me. Even if my side is the safest in the world.”
“You just forgot about it, and you’re talking about something else.”
“I am always speaking the truth. How are you? Won’t you stay by my side for the rest of your life?”
Why does this guy just say things like that when he comes back to Cheon Hong-ryeon?
If you come back to reality and do the same thing you said back then, you’re going to die of shame.
“Because I came. It’s safer to be with you than to go down alone now, so stay.”
Then, Kkotbi suddenly moved her gaze to the wall to see if she had anything on her mind.
“what’s the matter?”
“I heard footsteps a while ago before the two of them arrived.”
“The sound of footsteps?”
Hearing the sound of footsteps, I tilted my head.
Does anyone have a big roam when the portal is open?
“The other hunters haven’t even entered yet.”
“Suspicious.”
“Yes?”
There is no way that there will be large ordinary people when they enter the portal.
When I agreed to that, Cheon Hong-ryeon tapped her cheek with her index finger.
“Shall I find you?”
“Can you?”
“What do you see me as?”
Cheon Hong-ryeon, who smiled as if there was no need for any difficulty, immediately closed her eyes.
That was the moment.
The flower rain held her breath in front of the intangible energy that flowed from her.
In an instant, the energy that spread throughout the building shook at will, and Chun Hong-ryeon slowly raised her eyelids after a while.
And a thick arc was drawn over her lips.
“found. Don’t catch me.”
With those words, Cheon Hong-ryeon disappeared.
Looking at Chun Hong-ryeon, who had disappeared as if it had really disappeared, I was surprised that even the flower rain couldn’t keep up with her movements.
“I heard that Sora is a returnee. Was it like this?”
“Flower Rain, what rank were you as a returnee?”
“I am an A.”
“Sora is an S-class.”
There is also a clear difference in power between returnees.
So, as soon as Kkotbi heard the rank, she looked convinced.
This is because Chunma was one of the most talented among the returnees.
“Ayu has a scary little sister.”
“He’s not even that scary.”
“Come to think of it, Domi oppa knows that Ayu and Ayu are close, but how does he know his younger sister?”
I stopped at the voice I heard.
Come to think of it, it was only a few days ago that Kkotbi knew that Ayu and I met in real life.
It was a strange thing to know that I even knew Ayu’s younger sister.
I wish I could have noticed that Cheon Hong-ryeon, who just disappeared with that keen eye, is Ayu.
Apparently, he didn’t know until Ayu said it.
“Listen to Sora.”
“Um, okay. Let’s focus on work, okay?”
Kkotbi was motivated by interpreting my words in a different way.
I got a somewhat contrived feeling from that burning desire, but I thought so.
“I will definitely protect Domi-oppa. Hurry up and close the portal!”
“Please.”
It’s because Ayu decided that there was no big problem when he left me here.

thump thump.
A woman’s red hair fluttered as she walked down the hallway of an abandoned building listening to the sound of her shoes spitting out.
She is none other than Cheon Hong-ryeon.
Her red eyes were very cold, a completely different atmosphere from when she was next to Kang Ha-chan, whom she often calls Domi-oppa.
“Should I come in? Or will you come out on your own?”
in the hallway.
Her voice echoed once.
Her voice, uttered as if whispered by a wild beast, contained a sense of pressure so strong that even ordinary people could faint.
And under such pressure, a man walked out from the old stone pillar.
He was wearing a school uniform, black eggs, and wearing round glasses, he couldn’t tell his age.
The only thing I could be sure of was that he was either blind or was holding a cane for the blind.
“Who are you?”
“Did you follow me without knowing who I was? Heavenly Sister.”
His lips curled under the glasses, playfully referring to Chun Hong-ryeon.
As soon as he saw that, Chun Hong-ryeon’s eyes frowned.
It was because the relaxed attitude in front of him was quite annoying.
“Ah, that expression is so scary! Wouldn’t it make me scared for nothing?”
Nevertheless, the man’s attitude was frivolous.
At the time of the Cheonma era, she had all the necks of such a bastard cut off, so Chun Hong-ryeon began to put a flag on her sword to hit him.
“You know that I am a heavenly demon. Are you from the Returnees Association?”
“… … I hope you don’t compare me to a group of cowards like that.”
At that moment, for the first time, the man was tanned.
It was because his distorted face was showing such a terrible displeasure that it reminded him of Sura at first glance.
At the same time, along with his intense emotions, the stone pillar next to him seemed to break apart.
From that alone, Cheon Hong-ryeon could easily guess that he was not an ordinary bettor.
‘Distrust and anger towards the Returnees Association.’
Chunma, who had seen the emotion, recognized who he was and pointed his sword at him.
“Giraseong.”
“Ah, you know Kira-seong!”
“Don’t be annoyed.”
At some point, his anger was erased a little while ago, and he started to smile brightly.
giraffe.
If the World Association of Returnees is ostensibly representing returnees, they are representing returnees from the back of the world.
Giraseong, a group of people who are opposite to the direction pursued by the Returnees Association, is a group that includes a large number of people who are not normal even within the returnees.
They have committed countless crimes so far and have a nefarious relationship with the World Returnees Association.
That man belonged to none other than that castle.
“It is a coincidence that I met you, but what about Heavenly Demons? Isn’t the tears our returnees shed too much to understand the current world?”
“Don’t bullshit. They open their mouths to whom the cancer cells of society are in front of.”
“This is really, really bad for returning patients.”
Laughing all the time, he slammed his wand to the floor with a grin.
“If you don’t have a thought, you just don’t exist. I will judge that it is not worthwhile to talk more.”
“noisy. Tell me why you are here.”
“Ahaha, what’s so righteous about killing a parent or a bitch with my own hands?”
The words he heard immediately were enough to cut off Chun Hong-ryeon’s reason.
“Isn’t it really fun to be a dimensional gate?”
A camellia flower formed on the tip of her sword.
“People seem to think that the portal can only be opened from the other side.”
A reddish scent spread across his smiling face.
However, the man whose shape was broken by being torn by Cheon Hong-ryeon’s sword just disappeared like powder.
“Isn’t it possible that all of our returnees know how to open these?”
As the last remaining mouth of his mouth disappeared like oxidation, Cheon Hong-ryeon’s teeth were bitten.
It was because he realized that his figure was a fake made of sand from the beginning.
“… … Giraseong, what is your purpose?”
Chun Hong-ryeon, remembering the last words he had uttered, clicked his tongue as if sighing.
Then the phone was pulled out of her arms.
What is written there is an iron-blooded empress.
I don’t like it, but I thought I should let you know what Giraseong is doing now.
