There Is No Salvation for Extras - Chapter 129



129 – From friend to enemy, from enemy to ally.

Hangyeol was honestly embarrassed.

Suddenly waking up while fighting alone among monsters? By getting rid of the monsters in an instant?

No, that’s not it. Just-

“…Lee Hyeon-woo.”

“Yes, Hangyeol.”

No matter how much we were friends, we would now face each other as a hero and villain.

The fact that he was approaching me with a calm expression, different from the hideous life I had just felt, felt so foreign.

“Weren’t you trying to hide your identity?”

“Well, it was like that.”

Just like the day we first met at the academy, the man who always tried to hide his identity by wearing a mask – Hyeonwoo approaches Jihyun while casually greeting her, then strokes Jihyun’s head, smiles bitterly and quietly closes his eyes – is so strange. So.

“…It will be like that in the future, but it doesn’t mean much right now.”

“Ha?”

“What can I do? Is there any point in fighting each other right now? Getting out of here is an urgent priority. “You didn’t fight with that in mind, did you?”

Ah. Why do I feel this way?

Realizing the reason, Hangyeol glared at Hyunwoo and distorted his face.

“You. “Is that all you have to say…?”

“We’re not in a position to talk right now, are we? “Hero and villain.”

Even though he says that, his attitude towards himself and Jihyun is not that of enemies. Rather, it was his eyes and tone that conveyed the longing of meeting an old friend.

But even so, he did not continue any particular conversation with them.

“Let’s see. “I’ve already defeated four bosses, and I’ve defeated a lot more since then – so I guess another wave will come soon.”

“…Hey.”

As if something was being suppressed, calmly.

“You too, Yumi… your sister is the same, and so is Jihyun. Since you’re hurt a lot, I think it would be a good idea to join our allies. Because we have someone with the ability to provide treatment.

“Hey!”

It was obviously the first time we had a conversation in a long time, so even though there were a lot of usual questions or other things to be curious about, it was as if he just wanted to get out of the current situation.

“…Why do you call me that?”

Because I just kept repeating the necessary words like a machine.

“Is that really the end of what I have to say!”

“I said it before, we can have a leisurely conversation-“

“Whatever that is, you bastard!”

That’s why he couldn’t hold back and got angry.

“Suddenly he disappeared without saying a word, suddenly appeared as a villain, and we parted ways as enemies without even saying a word of greeting. Now we meet again. “You have nothing to say?”

“…I did talk to Jihyeon on the phone.”

“Is Jihyun your only friend? Are we not even friends? You damn bastard. Okay. There may not be time for a leisurely conversation. But couldn’t you just ask how I was doing?”

Among them, we met for the first time at the shelter before entering school, and later formed a strong bond by preventing terrorist attacks that occurred at the academy.

“A year and a half wasn’t such a short time, and you lived in the same room as me. You may feel short, but I said you were my first friend!”

The friend I stayed with in the same dormitory, the first friend I spoke to and became close to, and the first friend I made after leaving the orphanage.

For Hangyeol, Hyunwoo felt the closest to him than other students.

The reason why he is angry now is – in some ways, it is a mixture of a sense of betrayal from a friend and a subtle emotion mixed with the complexity of the situation that arose because he did not know how to deal with it.

“…I’m sorry.”

“That’s the end-“

“But, at least we won’t know after this is over, so there wouldn’t be any point in talking about it now.”

“…What?”

But Hyunwoo only smiled bitterly. I looked at him with a confused expression and lowered my head –

“At least, let’s talk after this is over. “I will apologize properly and talk about what happened so far.”

“……”

It seems like it has no meaning now. I put Jihyun on my back and sighed.

“Let’s go.”

“…Do you know where to go?”

“I have to go to the high place over there. “If the kids have ideas, they will follow.”

A situation is a situation. If you keep doing this, you will only encounter a lot of enemies.

Hyunwoo immediately took out his cell phone and checked the GPS. After confirming that numerous red dots were approaching from behind, he started running forward.

“Hey, Jihyun is-“

“Come to your senses. “You were fighting alone until now, right?”

“How do you know that?”

“Everyone has fainted and you can tell right away that you are covered in injuries. Besides, if it were you, you would have immediately lifted it with telekinesis, but it’s obvious just by looking at you carrying Yumi on your back.”

For now, from now on. We must continue to move forward, at least until we have a complete picture of the current situation.

And-

“Oh, that’s right. Hangyeol.”

“…Why.”

“The little boy is upset. “Have you ever seen Zero before coming here?”

“Zero? “Who is Zero?”

“…No, no.”

We need to quickly check whether this assumption is correct or not.

“I really need to join the kids quickly.”

“Is it okay for you to show yourself to other kids?”

“Then what should I do? “I don’t have a mask right now, so should we split up and fight separately?”

The conversation between the two ended like that, and soon only the sound of footsteps continued to echo.

So they continued to run towards the rose flower rising high –

“-Found it.”

When we’re almost there. They eventually succeeded in finding their colleagues.

“-Overdrive!”

Quaaa!

A ray of flame shoots out from an outstretched hand.

After burning the monsters in an instant, Eun-ji frowned and looked back at Sang-hoon-

“How long are these bastards going to chase me!”

“Until the end! “Maybe even if we get there!”

“More than that, why don’t you fight!”

“Because we’re out of bullets! “What would I not want to do!”

Sang-hoon, who was just running forward while clutching his cell phone, shed bloody tears as he pledged that from next time he would bring full of bullets instead of dice or coins.

“Just stop killing me! “Don’t even wipe out those who don’t come close!”

“No, why! “Isn’t it too late anyway?!”

“That’s because it’s not too late! “What if a wave even worse than this comes?!”

“There, student? No matter what you say to him, he won’t listen, so leave him alone. Rather-“

In-jun, who was restraining and subduing monsters and dream eaters with his tentacles, got angry, but Eun-ji got angry in the opposite direction, as if she didn’t know why she should be like that.

“Mongyeom!”

“Hey! “Stop fighting!”

“Are you going to listen to the villain? That’s enough, give me the heels!”

“You don’t even listen to what your friend says! “There are two crazy b*tches!”

“What? “Have you said everything?!”

“Priest? Just leave her alone… No.”

Even Eugene, who is able to stay still, is running out of patience because of Hyuna, so Sang-hoon is in tears as he wonders why he has to control them and move on.

“Well, cheer up.”

“Cheer up, too. “Aren’t you going to be my junior from now on?”

“I’m sorry, but I rarely meet heroes as long as they receive different missions.”

“It’s good because it’s comfortable!”

I don’t know why a hero I’ve never seen before and who isn’t even a fellow villain is comforting me, but I know enough to know that the situation is a mess.

“So how long do we have to go forward?”

“Soon this sh*t will end! “It looks like it’s nearby!”

The silver lining is that we will soon be able to join others.

“It’s steadily shrinking over there, and it looks like they’re coming towards the tall rose vines over there!”

A red dot that continues to shrink. Of course, now the things sticking out from behind have risen like the tide – but it won’t really matter now that we’ve reached the destination.

The only comrades who aren’t with them are Yumi and Hyunwoo, and since Hyunwoo is unconscious, I don’t know if Yumi can wipe them all out on her own, so I’m a little worried – but it’s good news if at least a hero comes here together. It’s a win.

“I wish it was a hero shield, at least!”

“I would rather have a gladius.”

“Him?! Was he there too?! “I think that old maid will immediately swing her sword when we meet!”

If it’s a villain, he’s just another crazy b*tch who will rush at you without any hesitation. If she’s here, I wonder why she can’t even see her nose – anyway.

“Anything is fine, so anyone can come! Please!”

Those who ran toward that huge rose vine, somehow breaking through the onslaught of monsters, kept running, praying that they were friendly people with whom they could communicate, regardless of whether they were heroes or villains.

“Jewel! Before!”

“-Why is that bastard popping out here again?!”

As soon as I turned the corner of the alley, a monster rose up through the floor.

I froze when I saw a huge, long earthworm that seemed as if it could pierce the ceiling right in front of me.

“What the f*ck-“

“Mr. Sang-hoon!”

Yu-jin was scared and reached out to Sang-hoon, but he, who was running at the front, had already been caught by the tentacles attached to the earthworm a long time ago.

“Burning-”

“Wait! “If I shoot now, I’ll fall to my death?!”

“…Pfft!”

Eunji urgently stretched out his hand and tried to burn it, but the endlessly rising monster had already dragged him high into the air, so he hesitated to shoot the flame, and at the moment he was confused-

“Ilsum.”

“Wow!?”

“Invisible Hand.”

With a voice that was all too familiar to both the students and the villains, the monster was torn apart vertically, and something invisible caught Sang-hoon, who was falling and screaming.

“This, this-“

“Everyone gathered here. Fortunately, no one was left behind.”

At the end of the road they looked at.

“-Boss! Uh, wait a minute. “The mask…”

“Hangyeol! And- Huh?”

Han-gyeol and Hyun-woo, now completely devastated, each appeared with a woman on their backs.
