RUST [RUST]-842

Date- Huh- date-

Date- Dateuhh …

Kim Yang’s snorting filled the living room.

Hehehehe-

Her smile, which had been faintly smiling, suddenly turned cold.

The nurse bitch started to wag her tail a little.

PD felt like he was secretly pushing the hood.

Na Ju-yeon also seemed to be paying off her negative points steadily.

Unlike herself, who lived a life of honesty and integrity, they were all problematic years.

I couldn’t stand to see those years getting on the roof first.

The first thing that had to come up was only oneself.

Above all, wasn’t she a woman who knew Maru’s honest work life?

We also had a Seoul escape date there.

okay.

Thinking back, this wasn’t our first date.

Huh-

When I think about when my arm was pierced, I get phantom pain.

anyway.

Ms. Kim looked at herself in front of the mirror. Her short hair had grown a bit longer.

His once blurry eyes somehow seemed to sparkle.

Have my eyes ever sparkled like this?

It was a face I would look at unconsciously when brushing my teeth, but looking at it closely like this, it doesn’t seem so bad, but is the jaw line a bit blurred?

Your face is a little swollen because you’ve been eating a lot of salty food lately, right?

And come to think of it, the volume of the chest is also like that

It was Miss Kim who suddenly remembered the grandeur of the nurse.

Swish swish swish-

She gets rid of the nurse’s afterimage that appears in the mirror.

‘My chest… It’s weird to wear something like that.’

As I erased the nurse, this time the lovely hands of the hood and the face hidden by the half mask came to mind.

A white face contrasting with a black mask.

Half white but quite pretty woman. Blonde.

Even though it’s only half, it feels quite appealing.

Ms. Kim shook her head.

In the place where the nurse and the hood’s faces were erased, Na Ju-yeon with a sallow face appeared. The original wasn’t bad, but Na Ju-yeon had dark circles like a panda.

Kim Yang was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. Not only that, but he was able to cooperate with Na Ju-yeon sufficiently. If nothing else, it was the relationship that had been united as ‘Mayenshi.’

If we share our memories of this date, we will become even stronger. Then, for now, a two-person union will be possible.

Even though Na Ju-yeon has the position of fiancée, thinking back on the past, there was no chance that things would work out easily…

Hehehehe-

Miss Kim questioned and answered in her head.

Q. What made you decide to date?

A Kim. I’m starting to get the feeling that these two are working.

Q. Did you try to get her to eat your rice cake on a date because you thought it was too good to give to others?

A Kim. The seat next to you isn’t just given to you. It’s something you have to fight for.

Q Yang. Is there no love?

A Kim. When we work together, our hearts race and our minds race every time we see each other. If it feels like I’m going to die, isn’t that love?

Mr. Q. ······.

A Kim. Why? Am I wrong?

Q. So, what do you want to do in the future?

A Kim. I hope it doesn’t change. I don’t like things to change.

There wasn’t much that could move her desolate heart.

cash?

A piece of paper that can’t defend against inflation.

diamond?

A boulder that jumps around in price at will.

So, conclusion.

The one thing that doesn’t change is gold.

Honest gold.

Golden love.

What does it take to have a sparkling love?

You’ll need a lot of good gold bars.

I wanted to have a love that was as solid as a gold bar.

So, the most important thing is this.

Who did you have a strong love with?

The answer was clear.

Kim Yang began to feel confident that she was ahead of the pack.

‘Yeah. That’s it.’

As the saying goes, the most Korean thing is the most global thing, so being true to yourself is probably the best thing to do.

‘But what is the most like me?’

She looked around, then stroked her empty waist and turned her gaze to the wall decorated with guns.

A well-groomed cobalt blue colt python came into her sight.

Huh-

“Who decided on the date course?”

Ki-soon asked with a giggling face, her eyes half-closed.

“What about the date course? We’re going to do it inside the Ark Tower anyway.”

“Hey. But you sang a song to ask me to go on a date? Even if you didn’t say anything, you must have been secretly looking forward to it. And you’re just going around here and that’s it. If you’re going on a date, you should at least go to Detroit.”

“Okay. Where are you going with all this snow? And you and Ms. Kim going to wander around the city together? If you two just walked down the street, there would be chaos. Your eyes are already red from lack of gossip.”

“A date between the King and the Commander of the Guard. Whispers of two people confirmed on the streets of Detroit. A love story of two people that heats up the frozen city. Ta-da-da- really?”

“That’s what I mean. It’s more burdensome than I thought.”

“If we properly run the media, the burden on politics will be reduced.”

Instead of guaranteeing freedom of the press, it was the Holy Kingdom that began to clearly ask about the relationship of responsibility. As a result, fake news disappeared. Or, articles of the type “that’s not true” also disappeared.

AI verifies articles in real time, and articles caught by AI go through a re-verification process and are judged. If they are found to be false, they are held strictly accountable.

From simple actions such as posting an apology to expelling the reporters and editors who wrote the related articles, the media in the Holy Kingdom was quickly restored to normal.

At the same time, the level of professional reporters covering politics, economy, society, and culture has improved. Even if artificial intelligence assists reporting, humans still have to find topics and develop arguments.

However, if there is one area that has shrunk from before, it is popular culture – idols, singers, and actors. Hollywood is finished, and most of the singers, actors, and celebrities have disappeared.

There are many entertainment reporters, but the people who were the subjects of the articles are gone. Entertainment reporters had to find other topics.

Who should I choose as my topic?

The reporters, who had been struggling, finally found a topic that would become a hot topic. It was the hero king who founded the Sacred Kingdom and his companions.

A founding myth of the Holy Kingdom founded in his mid-20s. The story of a young man who fought as a mercenary and gained territory by fighting against the apocalypse.

And the romance between the King of Heroes and the women who follow him. Naturally, it was bound to become a source of income for entertainment industry reporters.

Romance, please. Just come out. Write something. The reporters, their eyes bloodshot, had been stationed near the Vladislav Tower for a long time.

“The reporters are being attacked and they want me to go to Detroit?”

“That’s how entertainment industry reporters can make a living.”

“Ms. Kim, who used to eat and sleep well on her own, is suddenly talking nonsense. Is there something she can’t talk about? Is there something she needs to seriously discuss under the pretext of a date?”

“She’s the type of girl that is. If there was a problem, she would have said it right away. So what’s your true feelings? Do you not want to date? Do you hate Miss Kim?”

Ki-soon asked with a serious expression on her face, her giggling expression gone.

“No. It’s not that I don’t like it.”

“It’s not that you don’t like it?”

“It’s unique in many ways.”

“You don’t seem like anything special?”

“······.”

“······.”

Ki-soon’s squinted eyes became even narrower.

“Why? Is it because you remember what the PD said last time? Is it because you remember the story about how our king needs to have many women in order to become politically stable?”

“···Why is that sound coming out all of a sudden?”

There was no way I could miss that moment of hesitation.

“Hey, our king. I had that in mind. Of course. As a king, you have to consider the political repercussions. What the PD uncle said wasn’t wrong.”

“······.”

“So, are you worried that if you become too close to Ms. Kim, your relationship with the other party might become strained?”

“······.”

The corners of Ki-sun’s thin eyes twitched in an annoying way.

“Ugh- So that means you were interested in that story. Kyaha- You pretended not to be interested in that. Well, I can’t stand a harem. I admit it.”

“······.”

The Holy Kingdom was a multi-ethnic nation.

Even among white people, there were Americans, British and French Canadians, and other Europeans. There were also many Asians, including the recently rapidly increasing number of Koreans, Japanese brought in by the Charlotte Group, and quite a few from Central Asia and the Middle East.

Given the unique atmosphere of the Holy Kingdom, it would not be strange if racial conflict arose depending on which race Maru chose as his queen.

So the PD insisted that King Maru should embrace people of various races and classes.

Even if it is a case of ‘closing one’s eyes and pretending not to see’, the story was that it should be given symbolic meaning that the king does not treat people of the same race or origin with contempt.

Modern society. It was an idea that did not fit with modern morals and culture, but it was a claim that was hard to ignore when thinking about the end.

“So. Thinking about the future, are you going to end your date with Ms. Kim by just having a meal together?”

“Wouldn’t that be the safest option?”

Ki-soon made a tsk tsk expression.

“Rather, ask Miss Kim what she wants to do.”

“I did think about that. I thought I might say something weird.”

“How outrageous would it be if it were a date? Would you suggest betting on who would slap people on the left or right foot while riding the subway? Or would you suggest switching shoes while running a race? If you really don’t know, just do whatever Ms. Kim says.”

“Why are you taking care of Miss Kim? You?”

When Maru gave him a look that said, “Come to think of it, weren’t they doing something like that?” Ki-sun reacted with a start.

“No, what? What are you talking about? It’s not something you should be concerned about, it’s something that should be expected.”

“Really? Are you serious?”

“What’s that strange noise all of a sudden? Ahh-”

Ki-sun was caressing his arm as if he had heard a terrible sound and was feeling goosebumps.

“Anyway, since you’ve decided to go on a date, do it well. Unlike me, you and Miss Kim get along really well.”

Maru sends a text message to Kim Yang because it wasn’t a wrong statement.

What do you want to do, what do you want to eat? As soon as I sent the text, I got an answer right away.

[I want to try it in virtual reality.]

What?

[So one game.]

What on earth would you like to do in virtual reality?

Kim Yang may have been waiting for this moment.

Detroit, which should have been buried in cold snow, was bathed in warm spring light. A landscape of fresh green sprouts sprouting from the ruins and swaying in the gentle breeze.

It was a scene I often saw in Mayen City, but today somehow felt different. Because I was seeing it with the original Maru, not the NP Maru.

[Are you here?]

[Yeah. Why are you here all of a sudden? What do you want to do?]

[I have something to check.]

[check?]

[huh.]

Clank-

Maru’s image was enlarged in Kim Yang’s scope. And Maru’s face was seen turning his head in her direction like a ghost.

When their eyes met, a tingling sensation seemed to run through her entire body. The original was different. The Enpi Maru was also scary. But it was on a different level.

The sight of Maru, naked and holding only the old Eclipse. Compared to him, he was completely armed with his own special machine, but somehow he felt trembling.

[Let’s play a game.]

As soon as Kim Yang pulled the trigger, Maru’s new model disappeared from the scope.

Creepy creepy

Heart pounding

Kim Yang found Maru’s location using 36 drones placed in all directions.

The image of Maru running in a straight line, breaking through the ruined building and splitting the collapsed building, appeared on Kim Yang’s HUD.

Hah- haah-

Your breathing becomes rough without you knowing it.

Here he comes.

She just pressed the button.

cook-

Kwaaaaaaaang!

The building that was collapsing completely blew up as the planted bomb exploded.

A strong murderous intent shoots through the debris spreading in all directions and the rising dust.

A feeling of suffocation.

Kim Yang’s face turned red as she felt like she was going to die.
