There Is No Salvation for Extras - Chapter 139
139 – Happy midday dream (2)
-Boss.
“Zero.”

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was the noisy interior of the academy.
And Hyunwoo, who was watching the fireflies flying around them, smiled bitterly and remembered his own question to Dream Eater.
In response to his question about where and how far the dream begins, did Dream Eater say that you can find out if you go back in person?
It was exactly as it said. Because I couldn’t know without knowing.
“What is the situation?”
-There is no such thing as a situation. Dreams covered the academy, and I just erased them.
Sang-hoon was lost in the same scene he saw when he first infiltrated the academy, and Zero took his place.
And then Zero presses the phone with a worried face and starts talking –
“Boss. “What’s wrong?”
“God?! “Did something happen?”
Repentance’s villains are embarrassed as they look at this scene.
Hyeonwoo tried to answer them, but soon shut his mouth when he saw their reaction.
“…You-“
“Hyeonwoo oppa. What’s the matter…?”
“The boss is a bit strange. “Why don’t you try treatment, Eugene?”
I’m sure you’re not trying to joke around in this situation. They are truly worried about him.
Nothing happened, but I don’t know why I suddenly closed my eyes and stood still – myself.
“How much time has passed?”
-It’s been 3 minutes since I arrived here.
“…Huh. “It’s 3 minutes.”
Hyunwoo did not answer those who were looking at him with worried eyes, but immediately asked Zero. He then smiled bitterly, lamenting the answer he received.
3 Minutes. Does that mean it’s only 3 minutes?
The time in which they went through all the trouble to capture the hidden silent snake, then faced and fought the Dream Eater, escaped from the labyrinth, and defeated the Dream Eater in a desperate battle until the very end – only three minutes had passed. ?
Besides-
“…Sanghoon hyung. I can hear?”
-What, why are you suddenly calling me by my name? Aren’t we on a mission right now…?
“Did something happen outside?”
-…What happened?
Among those who fought against Dream Eater, excluding those who fainted, even Sang-hoon, who was awake, could not remember his dream.
Not only them, but so many other people were involved, but looking at them enjoying the festival so peacefully, it doesn’t seem like the civilians or heroes are much different.
“Ha, f*ck.”
-What, what’s wrong?
Perhaps he was the only one who fell into a dream and came back, and in fact it was all an illusion – even if he thought so.
Zero assured her that the academy was swept away by her abilities, so after she was sure they didn’t remember, she smiled bitterly and shook her head.
“No, it’s nothing.”
-…Is that so? Hey. But there’s something strange. No matter how much I look, I can’t see any signs of them moving.
“Yes… That’s right.”
I roughly knew the purpose of Dream Eater. If you were to trap yourself in a dream and defeat it, it would go back to the way it was before the dream, and it would have gone according to the game’s story.
However, what is different from the game is the use of overwhelming abilities.
In just three minutes, he even erased the memories of everyone except himself, probably by force – and then disappeared as if nothing had happened?
Is there such a big difference between themselves and the villain who ranked second in risk in Korea? Or has it become stronger than before?
Then, she is stronger than her, and the leader of the evil brigade, who boasts of her overwhelming danger level, is stronger than this?
“It sucks, really…”
-Is something really wrong? Boss? Hey…?
What happened to the balance?
Hyunwoo smiled bitterly and sighed, and then looked around at the people who were moving around to enjoy the festival without paying any attention to themselves.
There is not even a trace of a merchant selling cotton candy, a man handing out flyers, or any other strange guys.
The Silent Snake villains have already disappeared without a trace, and even Dream Eater has disappeared.
I guess I’ll have to look around more, but if the two groups disappeared without a trace, wouldn’t there be a reason for them to be here now?
You can convince your colleagues by explaining what happened in your dream, but that would have no meaning if the location was here.
“No, wait.”
“…Boss? “Where does it really hurt?”
Hyunwoo, who was thinking about withdrawing while sorting out his complicated thoughts, opened his eyes wide and shouted at a thought that suddenly occurred to him.
Even if no one remembers the dream right now, and even if the villains here have evaporated or never existed in the first place – there is still one more person left who will notice right away and tell him about this situation. Isn’t it?
“…For information.”
-I’m listening. I’m finally calling you. You waited so long?
It is not because of his mood that the relaxed tone of his voice seems somewhat urgent.
“Do you know anything?”
-There is so much I know, it must be overflowing. For a minute, everyone was motionless and their eyes were closed, as if time had stopped in this academy, and no one other than the boss or Zero noticed it.
“…Eh?!”
“What do you mean?”
Yumi and Yujin were surprised to hear the intelligence officer’s words, but Hyeonwoo clenched his fists and chuckled after hearing the intelligence officer’s words.
That’s right. There were other people who noticed.
That’s right – Jeong Bo-sang wasn’t moving with them right now, nor was he waiting around here like Sang-hoon, so he was probably watching this place from afar.
-Rather, I would like to ask this question. Dream Eater, did that b*tch do something?
“A lot has happened, wouldn’t you be surprised if you heard it in person? Especially Eunji and Yujin.”
“What does that mean?”
“I’ll go back and tell you that. “If we talked about it here, it would be easy for the heroes to catch us.”
If you heard what they just did in their dream, you might not believe it. However, it is true that there is no time for leisurely conversation here.
“Rather than that, right now it is the enemy’s actions. How is it? Can you see the guys being identified now?”
– Surprisingly, none of the guys who were there just now are visible.
“…What about heroes?”
-It looks like they are still planning to remain on guard or wander around the academy. I think students will probably join us soon. There was nothing strange about their behavior just a moment ago, but now it looks like they are going to waste it.
The silent serpent, the church of dreams, and even the evil brigade.
Is it because the plan of the three villain organizations joining forces to attack the academy went wrong?
No matter how hard the heroes looked around, there was no villain they could find right now, and they would probably just waste their time –
-…Hmm?
“What’s wrong?”
-No, wait. No way? Is it real?
“What is it? “I have to say-“
-The heroes began to move. Now the heroes are starting to head outside the academy.
With the sudden information, that confidence disappeared for a long time.
“To the outside? Why? “Because what’s going on outside?”
“Aren’t you going to withdraw? “I decided there was no villain here-“
-No, it’s not like that. What if we realize that what is happening elsewhere is more urgent than here and take action?
“…Hah? “There’s no way something like that could happen-“
There is something more important happening outside than the news of a terrorist attack taking place at the Academy. Do you think that makes sense? How many civilians are here-
-Judgement and that guy are fighting.
“…If it’s him, then what?”
-Isn’t there only one guy that Judgment can move in the first place?
Former No.1 Hero Judgment. If there’s anyone he can move to, there’s only one.
Hyeonwoo, who knew that fact, soon opened his mouth with a hardened expression.
“-Head of the evil brigade.”
-That’s correct.
When we heard that Judgment and the leader of the Evil Brigade were fighting outside the academy, the atmosphere suddenly became heavier.
That’s right, the reason they came to the academy now is to stop the evil brigade, but suddenly the villains who infiltrated here have disappeared without a trace, and the final boss has appeared from outside and is fighting, so they can’t help but be confused. Wouldn’t you?
There was nothing more they could do if they stayed here like this, and if they wanted to do anything more here, they would have to head over there and fight that guy – the risk was too great for that.
“What are you going to do now, boss?”
“…Let’s step back.”
Eunji, who was biting her lip and contemplating, asked Hyunwoo, and his decision was quick.
“Let’s just go back? Or should we go that way?”
“Let’s go back. “There is no point in staying here or going there.”
“It’s quite cold. In the past, I thought I would have jumped at the opportunity…”
“I don’t know about you, but we’ve already done everything we can. There is no point in moving further here.”
That’s right, they have now succeeded in completely blocking the church in the dream. No matter how much they don’t remember, Hyunwoo’s memories of that time were so vivid that it would be natural for him to make this judgment.
“Hmm. “I’ve come this far, but it’s a shame to go back…”
“…Or at least do some more sightseeing and then go back.”
“Huh? Is that okay?”
“We were talking about something serious just now, but as I said before, our work is done now anyway.”
Well, it is true that there is no need to discuss the future so seriously.
Hyunwoo sighed and smiled bitterly, perhaps because he was relieved that their work was over.
One way or another – it was clear that the Dream Eater had retreated, and the Silent Snake did not show up for some reason, so let’s move on.
Even the evil brigade somehow showed up somewhere other than the academy, so now this is just a place where a festival takes place.
And now they are literally at a loss, with nowhere to go. Having finished their work, it no longer mattered what they did here.
This means that it doesn’t matter whether you watch the festival here or go back and take a rest.
“Because this is my first time attending the Suado Festival. “It’s okay to enjoy it.”
“Heh… First, then!”
The heavy atmosphere just now began to ease as if it were all a lie, and soon Eun-ji turned her gaze and hugged Su-a-
“-Suaya! Should we just take a look?”
“Yes!”
-Wait a minute, then can I go there too?
“Sanghoon, please come quickly too. “Because my side is sore.”
“hahahaha… Mr. Eugene. “You’re bolder than I thought.”

Hyunwoo, seeing their atmosphere suddenly becoming more lively, smiled and let go of his tension.
Is it because he remembered Eun-ji complaining about wanting annual leave after this job, or is it because there was a change in his feelings?
I’ve worked hard so far, and work will continue to be difficult, so I thought it might be a good idea to take a little rest here.
“Cognitive impairment. “How long is it valid?”
-It will continue at least until the end of the festival today. If I don’t decide to solve it, it’s my ability that won’t disappear.
“Okay… Thank you.”
-What. This is what I’m going to do.
Therefore, Hyunwoo looked at them, smiled quietly, and continued his steps.
“…Boss? Where are you going?”
“I have someone to meet. “You guys play separately.”
“…The boss? “Someone to meet?”
“Okay. “There is someone I must meet.”
Eunji frowned at the declaration that they would move separately, but then asked back in disbelief – Hyunwoo looked up at the sky and answered.
The resolution in the dream did not disappear even after waking up from the dream.
Not only the resolution but also the promise will be valid.
Of course, since not even others can remember her dreams, there is no way she can remember the promise she made to herself –
Even so, there was someone he needed to meet here–more precisely, someone he needed to check.
“I promised.”
