RUST -486

Maru was slightly conflicted as he looked at the molar in his hand.

‘Wasn’t it this?’

There was something covering the top of my wisdom tooth, so I pulled it out. It was a mark from a cavity treatment and filling. I didn’t feel bad about cutting off my arm, but I feel bad about pulling out my wisdom tooth raw.

As I stood there holding the extracted molar, the woman who had spat out a clump of blood looked at me as if to say, ‘Why the tooth?’ and fainted.

The village chief stopped the bleeding, but his arm was cut off and he was bleeding. His molars were pulled out raw and he was bleeding. He was bleeding in pairs, so things were a little difficult.

‘So, you said that even if you pull out a tooth, you can put it back in right away if you don’t like it?’

Maru, who vaguely remembered what he had seen on Newtube before, put the wisdom tooth he had pulled back in. Wince- The one-armed woman who had fainted trembled.

‘That’s right. I have to hold on to it. And stop the bleeding.’

Maru used a new hemostatic agent to stop the bleeding in his mouth. The new hemostatic agent developed by the US military through research on mutant barnacles was also effective in this regard.

[···What are you going to do?]

Hood, who was watching from the airship, asked.

“well···.”

Maru thought as he washed the blood on his hands with water. If he was going to use Dr. Noedungdung to extract information, it would be better to go back right away.

It was best to extract it while it was alive, and if you were going to cut off the head and extract information, it was best to do it while it was as fresh as possible.

I came here with the intention of recruiting people with powers and taking over the entire village, but the result was disastrous. The village was blown up and the only person with powers was a woman with a knife.

But this woman was pretty good. It was enough to activate the time dilation effect like when she fought Director Yu Original. It wasn’t as good as Director Yu at the end, but it still seemed to be about 70% effective.

“It would be a waste to kill him.”

[······.]

The accent on the word ‘what a pity’ seemed to be punctuated by Maru’s voice, and Hood felt his toes tickle for no reason. He didn’t have athlete’s foot, but for some reason, he felt a little off.

[I became one-armed?]

Hood blew the fact without knowing it.

“One-armed. Arm… I think it’ll be fine if I do it well.”

[yes?]

A thought suddenly occurred to me as I heard Hood’s voice. Wasn’t Hood like that too?

Since you’ve become stronger while treating burns, wouldn’t the knife-wielding woman be the same?

Maru nodded slightly. It was definitely possible.

“For now, let’s preserve the severed arm. Bring the preservation equipment and take care of the arm.”

[ancient]

One of the guardsmen cleaned the woman’s severed arm and placed it in a preservation device. As it was placed in a clear liquid, the woman’s forearm came back to life.

Wiggle-

A right arm that wiggles its fingers as if it were alive. It has been specially preserved, so it will remain fresh for quite a long time.

[The recovery of the injured has been completed.]

Since I had ordered them to take care of the guards first, they were dealt with quickly.

“Resume the search as a team. If you find any survivors in the village, administer emergency treatment on site.”

Maru had no intention of letting anyone he didn’t like onto his airship.

“What about Erica? Can she use psychometry right away?”

[···Yes. The number of times you can use your ability has been filled again.]

When Erica answered with a slightly cracked voice, Maru told her to rest until the search of the village was complete.

“It’s not urgent, so just rest for now.”

[yes.]

Maru, who had been reading psychometry, opened the mouth of the one-armed woman who had fainted again.

Ppop!

Um – not this either.

Maru put the extracted wisdom tooth back in its original place and applied a hemostatic agent as if he was applying concrete.

“Then was it this way?”

Throb-

Throb-

The fainted woman’s limbs, not her feet, were moving.

======

Even though it was sad to be one-armed, Irene, who almost had her teeth replaced, opened her eyes.

What caught my eye was the blue sky.

sky?

Things that came to mind in an instant. I was sparring with Vladimir Kalin and my arm… When I raised my right arm, half of it was gone.

It seemed like everything was fine.

I felt like my fist was clenched.

It felt like I was grabbing it, but all I could see was a severed arm.

I tried to get up, but my body felt strange.

Swaying-

Even though only half of my forearm was cut off, I felt off balance.

I suddenly felt dizzy.

A cold sweat began to break out all over my body.

A familiar face appeared in my shaking vision. A face that had lost all its life. The corpse lying on the floor in the shape of a large letter was the corpse of my superior who had served as the village chief.

A sunken face. Discoloration that started on the side where the wisdom teeth were and spread to the entire face. Suicide by biting poison.

She unconsciously touched her molars with her tongue. It felt as if something like gum was stuck between her molars and gums. And somehow, one of her molars was empty.

Everything was confusing and jumbled.

She raised her body with a jerk and reached out to the sparring sword lying on the floor. Her wristless right arm twitched the handle of the sword.

‘Ah- It was cut off… my right arm.’

She raised her body, using the sword she held in her left hand like a cane, and looked around.

The first thing I found was her real sword.

I had left it to the village chief who acted as the chief for the sparring, but he was nowhere near the body.

And a tent was spread out a little way away. There was a wounded soldier and him there.

‘Vladimir Kalin···.’

Kkadak-

She thought she was walking confidently, but in reality, her gait was staggering. No one stopped Erilyn.

As I approached the tent, I saw Vladimir Kalin injecting a wounded soldier with a pink medicine. A soldier was groaning in pain, his arm crushed, as if a bomb had exploded at close range.

“Hold on.”

Ughhhhhhhhhh-

It was clearly a crushed arm.

It was a wound so bad that it required amputation of the arm.

There were even parts that were torn off in chunks and lost.

however.

As if time were turning back.

The torn, torn, and mangled arm began to regenerate.

‘how?’

It was a miracle.

An arm that became healthy right before my eyes.

It was an arm.

It was a serious injury and clearly the arm needed to be amputated.

Irlin suddenly felt breathless.

She crouched down, her legs giving out, and she turned around slowly.

eight.

A severed arm.

‘My arm···.’

It’s not too late.

You can reattach it.

When she returned to the scene, she found a severed arm.

It wasn’t there. It was cut off so it should have been here but it wasn’t there.

“My··· arm···.”

Irlin started to stir in all directions, as if she had gained strength from somewhere.

Even though they overturned the body of her superior, her arm was nowhere to be found.

Where is my arm? My arm.

My eyes were drawn to the round container on the table in front of me. An arm immersed in a clear liquid.

“My–. My arm–!”

A staggering step. Acceleration was achieved, ignoring the collapsed center of gravity.

The moment I reached out my hand towards the barrel that had suddenly become close, someone reached out to me first.

“Did you find this?”

The long drawn out time has returned to normal.

Irelin raised her head blankly, stretching out her right arm and then accepting the preservation device with her left arm. The person who entered her eyes was Vladimir Kalin.

“Okay. Can you tell me what your plan was?”

“······.”

My maternal relatives from Japan, that is, distant relatives.

An order to capture Vladimir Kalin by means of a beauty trap.

Talk about securing cell tissue.

What comes to mind in her jumbled head is…

A container containing a severed arm.

A wounded soldier’s arm is healing.

She unconsciously ran her tongue along her molars.

The wisdom teeth that should have been there were missing.

Why did I touch my wisdom tooth?

Maru read the confused look in her eyes and took a small container out of his pocket and said.

“Don’t worry about poison or bombs.”

“······.”

Diana brightened the room with green light.

[The Master has just entered the air defense zone.]

When she heard that Maru had returned, Ms. Kim rolled up the blanket in a fussy manner.

“You’re back already? What’s going on?”

I thought he’d be gone for a few months, but he’s suddenly back. Should I assume that there was a problem?

[There was no particular conversation. He said that he would start a general meeting as soon as he arrived.]

“Okay, I get it.”

Diana printed the data file on the bathroom mirror monitor.

Kim Yang’s eyes narrowed as she read the file while brushing her teeth.

‘One-armed… a swordsman? But a woman?’

Phew-

Garrrrrrr-

Swish- swish- Kim Yang, who had just washed up, headed to the conference room.

It seemed like everyone was waiting in the conference room, but she was the only one who was late.

“If everyone is here, let’s start. Let’s check the current status first. Upload Diana’s data.”

[Current situation information is uploaded.]

It seemed that they had almost completely taken control of the strategic point north of the St. Lawrence River. There was resistance at first, but rumors spread that Vladimir Kalin was personally taking care of it, so they joined the kingdom without hesitation.

“There haven’t been any major problems since Blackrock Village and Truwa Village were cleared out, but the situation is not easy. To the next screen.”

A miniature repeater and a surveillance device screen appeared.

“We mobilized the wolf unit and the sacred crow to recover what they scattered. We have to assume that they have touched nearly half of the village.”

Kim Yang nodded as she thought something was strange while looking at the seven villages.

“It would be a good idea to convert the villages that have devices into strongholds before winter comes.”

“How about replenishing the Sacred Crow Unit?”

“It would be better to manage the villagers separately as well.”

“Half is realistically difficult. We don’t have enough manpower.”

“It’s not impossible if we make full use of artificial intelligence.”

Maru smiled faintly and placed the broken parts on the table.

“The newly acquired territory is territory, but there are also these within the Detroit air defense zone.”

The expressions of the PD and the newly joined security chief hardened at the news that the bastards had their eyes and ears in several cities and towns, including Detroit.

“And then. They started working on this side in earnest.”

Maru explained based on Erilyn’s statement.

“I was going to use a beauty trap, so other people should be careful too.”

Beauty queen? Kim Yang’s eyes lit up.

“A one-armed woman who uses beauty tricks?”

“No, that’s not it. I cut it during sparring.”

“So she’s useless now?”

“No, that’s not true. I’m trying to recruit him because his abilities are good.”

Are you trying to recruit a girl to use her beauty trick?

Kim Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly at Maru’s answer.

“Are you thinking of filling the necklace?”

“I don’t think the necklace will be of much use since the radio interference is gradually getting worse. No.”

“Then how are you going to control it?”

“He said that if trust deepens, he will reattach the severed arm.”

Hood, who was wiggling his toes under the table, admitted, “That would work,” but the security team leader shook his head.

“If the Virginia Company or the military had intended to use honey traps, they would have taken steps to prevent betrayal.”

“They put this and that on the wisdom tooth. For now, the danger has been eliminated.”

“You may have a microchip inserted in other places besides your wisdom teeth.”

“Is that so? Then a detailed examination is necessary. Let’s do that.”

Ms. Kim, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, raised her hand.

“That’s a detailed examination. Why don’t you try the bread bitch?”

“Huh? You’re a baker?”

‘What’s with the sudden bread bitch?’

In Maru’s eyes, Kim Yang described the pastry baker who was locked in the kitchen. It was suspicious that a pretty girl would suddenly barge in and try to take root in the kitchen.

“···So I locked him up for now.”

“good job.”

Heh heh. It was Ms. Kim who was shrugging.

“Erika, is it possible for two people to have psychometry?”

“Yes, it’s okay. I can do it.”

“Then bring that female cook too.”

Despite being locked in solitary confinement for a long time, Roana Blanc’s splendid beauty remained intact. She was certainly a chef with a strange side, as Kim Yang had said.

Erilyn Newman decided to use psychometry to verify her statement, and Loana Blanc to figure out how she got in naturally through security.

“But is the surname Newman common?”

Ms. Kim asks an unexpected question while watching the PD.

Producer Michael Newman looked at the woman with the severed arm, Erilyn Newman, without answering. The PD’s somewhat complicated expression dampened the mood.

“······.”

“······.”

While all eyes were on the PD and the one-armed woman, the security chief’s eyes were turned to Roana Blanc.

“Then I’ll start with the cook here.”

Rather than Irene Newman, whose atmosphere was a little strange, it was Erica who started psychometry by holding Roana Blanc’s hand.

■▣■■□□—-

“to?”

“I wonder if it was transferred to the nurse,” said Erica, who let out an exclamation without realizing it.

“Uh- this is- uh- I don’t know.”

The security chief’s gaze, which had been directed at Roana Blanc, naturally turned to Erilyn Newman.
