Episode 139

“Why don’t you hide somewhere and take a look?”

‘Eunhaon’ asked while sitting at the desk in the lab.

“It’s not often that you get to see a ghost being fooled for a moment.”

The sniper, who was about to leave the lab with Halo, flinched and turned around.

Even though my face was covered by a balaclava and night vision goggles, I felt like the disapproving stares were piercing through.

‘Eunhaon’ laughed out loud because it was so funny, then became serious.

“Why? Are you sorry for coming now?”

“It’s not fun, so just do your assigned work properly.”

“Sniper. You have to speak nicely. What if I say something wrong to Ghost?”

Halo pulled the sniper aside and asked absentmindedly.

“Are you going to brag that I’m the arsonist from 10 years ago?”

“Not that one.”

‘Eunhaon’ answered casually as if it was nothing.

“In fact, I might accidentally tell you that your brother is alive and well. Well, not that he’s alive and well.”

As the sniper flinched and took a step back, Halo also raised her blade, unable to hide her agitation.

“How long did you think you could hide it? Aren’t you ignoring me too much?”

‘Eunhaon’ opened the body information of ‘Woo Hye-seong’ and the sniper, which was stored in his cell phone, and sneered.

“I never would have guessed that Halo’s daughter was Ghost’s dead sister.”

When the sniper tried to snatch the phone, ‘Eunhaon’ distanced himself as if he had expected it.

“Show more sincerity. I’ll be careful not to make a mistake today, but I’m not the most patient person. Next time, I’ll tell Ghost the ‘truth’ and ask him to hand over the Awakening Orb─”

Phew─.

“Sniper!”

Halo grabbed the sniper’s hand in a hurry, but ‘Eunhaon’ had already been shot in the forehead and fell backwards.

The face of the person who died instantly without even closing his eyes was hidden by his hair and blood flowed on the floor.

The sniper’s hand holding the silenced gun trembled, as if it was an impulsive act.

Halo sighed deeply and sighed.

“If you kill the only person who can help you… … .”

“It may not be the only one. The therapist I met yesterday seemed to know something about my body.”

“You can’t just trust someone you don’t even know properly!”

“I didn’t trust this woman enough to entrust her with my body! And just look at her trying to manipulate people by taking advantage of their weaknesses. It’s obvious that this is just the beginning─”

The eyes of the sniper and Halo, who had been responding emotionally, simultaneously turned to the door.

And without saying who would go first, they hid in the structure above the ceiling.

Chacha appeared just in time outside the window.

“If I find the item, I’ll show it off at the pub, ugh!”

Chacha, who was muttering as she tried to open the door, was shocked when she discovered the body.

“Mr. Ha, the blood doesn’t seem to have clotted. Is the culprit still here?”

She glanced around the lab through the glass window, muttered something impatient, and hurried out of the lab.

The sniper, who had been holding his breath, jumped down first and took Eunhaon’s cell phone.

“Go quickly. Since you’re dead to me, your body will disappear anyway.”

Halo, who landed on the ground after that, responded with a look of pain in his head.

“Just in case, we should check the penthouse too. We need to make sure we get things done.”

At that moment, black light poured into the laboratory.

The two people looked back in surprise as a black gap slowly opened in the air.

Halo gathered light in his hand and blocked the sniper’s path.

The gap in the air spat out a woman who had lost consciousness and then disappeared in an instant.

Halo and Sniper watched the woman who suddenly appeared with nervousness.

And then they froze as if in a state of great shock, and then exchanged glances.

“Galaxy On?”

The sniper hurriedly looked back at ‘Eunhaon’, whom he had shot dead. The body was still there.

“What is this… … .”

“Is this some kind of new experiment from Eunhaon?”

“Then wouldn’t it be better to kill this too?”

The sniper aimed his gun at Eunhaon’s head.

As soon as he did that, a cracked voice came out of Eunhaon’s mouth.

“Lord… … Open… … .”

“… … !”

The sniper’s shoulders visibly stiffened.

“Why do you say that name… … .”

“Juyeol… … . Run away… … .”

The sniper’s hands trembled slightly at the sound of the muttering again.

Halo, who had been watching quietly, lowered his gun.

“The penthouse. I have to go check it out.”

“… … .”

The sniper, who had been standing there hesitating for several minutes, eventually put his gun away and took a step back.

In the lab the two people had left, there were two Eunhaons lying in similar positions.

* * *

“Ugh… … .”

Groans erupted from all over the meeting room, the headaches caused by the intense afterimages.

“Ugh.”

Chaser was also out of breath and sweating profusely.

“Chaser. Alright, eww!”

Haon, who was observing his complexion, almost fell over as he was pulled by the force of Chaser, who was holding his hand tightly and slumping down.

Then, he noticed that the coffin in his other hand had become completely white without any black spots, and smiled refreshingly.

Chaser, who stood up while catching his breath, answered with a much more relaxed expression.

“Sorry. It’s okay.”

As I witnessed the scene of ‘Eunhaon’ dying and Haon falling into this dimension, the anxious feeling I had always had seemed to slowly go away.

“When I get back, I’ll clean up the remains of the Awakening Sphere. Thank you for helping me.”

As Haon patted the hand he was holding, Chaser pulled his hand away with a look of bewilderment.

Meanwhile, one of the congressmen who had been talking about the afterimage they had just witnessed opened his mouth.

“Are you saying that wasn’t a hallucination, but something that actually happened in the past?”

“Yes. As you know, Chaser’s ability is to see the events of the past as afterimages. Just now, he was able to see an even older past with the power of dark energy. There is no one here who has the ability of hallucination.”

In response to the hunter’s calm answer, each person spoke up.

“Before coming here, I read a book written by Mr. Eunhaon about the existence of multiple universes.”

“Honestly, I couldn’t believe it, but I saw it with my own eyes… … .”

“Anyway, I understand that the Eunhaon here is a different person from the original ‘Eunhaon.’”

“… … !”

Haon opened his eyes wide in sudden anticipation. Then, could he now officially live as Eunhaon, not Eunhaon?

“but…….”

However, the Minister of the Awakening Management Department added something different from Haon’s expectations.

“The government cannot officially reveal this fact.”

“Huh? Uh, why?”

Haon looked at Hunter, unable to guess how things were going.

The hunter remained silent with a calm expression, as if he was guessing something.

“You should know that Korea is in a state of turmoil right now because of what happened at the port. There is more attention on Kwon Young-shi than necessary.”

“that…….”

“Even the villains of other countries are hanging around with interest, and didn’t black fireworks explode in the sky in broad daylight not long ago?”

“… … .”

Haon was speechless. That black flame must have been an explosion of dark energy that I threw out the window that day, turning Woo Hye-seong into an unawakened being.

Then the hunter asked casually.

“Is it because Halo was confined to a rehabilitation center?”

“… … Ahem.”

The minister coughed and avoided Hunter’s gaze.

Haon, who was observing the situation, asked with a puzzled look.

“Hunter. Why Halo?”

“What would happen if it was discovered that the boss in charge of the entire Old City was not the evil ‘Eunhaon’, who had been the villains’ order?”

“ah…….”

Haon and Chaser sighed with expressions of realization only then.

There were still villains who protected themselves with the thought that ‘Even if Eunhaon lost his memory and went crazy, he’s still Eunhaon.’

But if it were officially revealed that I’m a completely different galaxy than the Hunter said, there might be even more problems than there are now.

Haon asked, unable to hide his dissatisfaction even as he watched her.

“Well, I know what you mean, but I’m not ‘that Eunhaon.’ I can’t live as someone other than myself.”

“I personally have no intention of stopping you from proving that you are someone else.”

“Hmm? Does that mean I don’t have to act like ‘that Milky Way’?”

“That’s right. I’m saying that we can’t officially publish an article or write a new birth certificate.”

Haon was confused as to whether this was good or bad.

I had no intention of writing a new birth certificate, nor did I plan on publishing an article shouting, ‘I am a different Eunhaeon!’

I just hope that the many research projects that will come up in the future won’t be misunderstood as ‘something evil for the villains’.

‘Is that okay then?’

While Haon was tilting his head with a puzzled expression, the Minister of Science and Technology handed him a document.

“And how about visiting this place?”

“Yes? Where… …?”

Ha-on picked up the document and was shocked when he saw the words written at the very top.

“Korea Genetic Research Center”
