A hero becomes an obsessed villain - Episode 196

my plan was simple.

A god sleeps on top of this snowy mountain. A spirit in the shape of a dragon.

Convince the spirit to corrupt the villain with the ego stream and join the party..

good night. The theory was perfect. I'm a little worried about how to persuade him, but I guess it'll work out somehow..

okay. She had such happy thoughts...

Until I climb this mountain.

"No shit... this is so fucking bad..."

The snowy mountain we are climbing.

No, to be more precise, Choi Se-hee and I were groaning on a snowy mountain where the snow was swirling like a winter wonderland..

"Hey Dain! This really won't work?"

I was walking forward, whimpering, listening to Choi Se-hee's voice coming from right behind me..

My eyes are so swirling that I can barely open them. It didn't seem like this much before I climbed up, but I wonder what kind of power the spirit used, and when I got up, it was snowing like crazy..

"Oh... really."

I was climbing up with my arms covered in front to block the swirling snow in front of me, struggling against the snow..

And Choi Se-hee follows behind me..

"Hey, that won't work! I can't just use my abilities?"

And at her words, I turned around..

Then, what we see is her about to transform into Electra, with lightning crackling under her feet..

I hurriedly stopped Choi Se-hee..

"Hey, no! If I do that, problems will arise again.?"

"Wow..."

She was just about to rise from the floor, scattering electricity like that, but her tongue clenched and she came back down to her seat..

As far as I know, the spirit is in a deep sleep in the cave at the top of this snowy mountain..

And since this mountain is entirely under the jurisdiction of that spirit, if you use your power for no reason, you can stimulate the spirit that senses it and wake it up..

So for now, it's best to go up quietly..

"I use it... but if I do this wrong, I'll get lost.?"

I muttered to Choi Se-hee in the snow. No, I couldn't see straight ahead so I had to turn sideways..

But I couldn't hear Choi Se-hee's answer, so I looked back and saw something orange struggling alone on the other side..

"Hey, it's here.!"

No, when did you get there??

In the end, I made it through the snow to where Choi Se-hee was, and came back holding her..

...But still, it's snowing too much.

"Hey, I can't see.!"

When Choi Se-hee shouted from behind me, I finally leaned back and held out my hand to her..

"Ha, hold my hand."

"huh?"

When I held out my hand, she looked up at me, sniffling, her cheeks red from the cold..

I spoke calmly to Choi Se-hee..

"Hold hands and follow me. If we keep doing this, we'll miss each other.."

"Yes. Well, then!"

Choi Se-hee, whose cheeks became slightly redder than before for some reason at my words, flinched slightly and placed her hand on top of mine..

I held her hand, stood slightly in front, and started to move forward..

"ruler! Okay, let's go!"

After holding my hand, she deliberately raised the tension and walked forward with a loud noise..

Seeing her with slightly red ears even though she was wearing a scarf, I chuckled and then climbed the snowy mountain together again..

Our hands are warm, so it feels better than before..

We continued climbing the snowy mountain like that..

It's hard to just hike, but walking in the cold and snowstorm is so hard that you'll die..

After walking up for several hours, we came to the conclusion that we should rest for a while..

"But where do I rest??"

"I know..."

The snow storm is still blowing fresh.

In the middle of it all, still holding hands and climbing, we realized that we wanted to rest but there was no place to rest. No, you can't sit on the bottom of this mountain and rest while it snows..

After thinking about it for a while, I quickly came to a conclusion by flicking my other hand..

"Yes, if you keep climbing this mountain, there will probably be a cave. Let’s find it and rest.."

"cave? This isn't the Himalayas, it's a place that feels like Mt. Jiri, but where is the cave??"

"No... I told you there was a cave at the top of this mountain. Then isn’t there a possibility that there is a cave halfway up the hill??"

"...is it?"

Choi Se-hee began to be persuaded by my seemingly logical words. No, doesn’t it seem plausible? If you don't have that, you can't rest and have to keep climbing to the end....

"Okay, let's go this way for now.."

So, for some reason, we started climbing through the snow again along the ridge that seemed to have something on it..

How much did it rise like that?.

"Oh, the weather seems to be getting a little better.?"

The snow that was falling like a fierce storm just a moment ago has now become quite quiet..

Of course, even though it had calmed down, it was still snowing heavily, but it was still a lot better than when the strong winds were blowing just now..

So for the first time since we climbed the side of this mountain, we were able to walk and look around..

"Hey, look over there. there is a river river."

"It's true?"

So what we discovered was a frozen river.

We began to walk slowly up the long river, which was already frozen and covered with snow..

Only when the snowstorm stopped did we go up the road, looking around. The sight of white snow piled on green pine trees along the frozen river was quite charming..

Even though I was exhausted, I was walking with Choi Se-hee while looking around and talking to each other..

Finally, we were able to find something..

"Hey, that's not a cave.?"

"Oh, it's true?"

"Ah, this really exists. I can finally stop getting caught in the eye. Ugh.."

So we entered the cave..

A hole that was neither big nor small, suddenly found in the middle of the mountain..

When we got in there, we were trying to take off our clothes and realized that we were still holding each other's hands. ...When I thought about it, the snowstorm had already stopped, so why was it still holding on?.

After naturally letting go, we patted the snow off our clothes and sat down, leaning against the cave wall. Ah, I will live....

As I was sitting there giving my tired legs a break, Sehee Choi handed me a cup..

"Come on, drink.."

"What is this? Ah... that's what I brought. thanks"

After doing something, I found warm tea in a thermos. He put it in the lid of a thermos bottle as a cup and gave it to me..

I said thank you, put my mouth to the cup, and drank..

It was so cold that even though I was in the thermos, it cooled down a little, but when I drank it, I felt a warm energy spreading throughout my body, centering around my neck..

I dabbed my body, enjoying the feeling, and soon drank the entire cup and returned it to Choi Se-hee. Soon, she poured tea again and drank it herself..

We were sitting facing each other with our bodies pressed against each other and our legs stretched out..

After resting for a while while looking at the snow falling outside, I turned my head and looked at Choi Se-hee. She was leaning against the wall like me, her shoulder-length orange hair, holding a red scarf in one hand, looking out absently, sipping her tea..

I spoke to Choi Se-hee..

"Are you tired? I had a hard time following along. I guess I put myself through a hard time because I should have gone alone.."

"huh? Ah... no. It's fun to be outside like this for the first time in a while. There isn't much to climb a mountain with snow like this.?"

It was Choi Se-hee who was smiling while saying that..

Thank you for being positive.

After that we rested for a while..

"At that time, Seo Ja-young suddenly said, “Wow!” While doing this, Eunwol appeared from behind. But Eunwol is fine, but Han Seo-eun, who was next to her, is startled and screams...."

"Puhuhuh."

After sitting for a while and talking about various things and resting sufficiently, we got up to leave again. I put my backpack back on and adjusted my clothes..

And just before leaving, I saw Choi Se-hee shouting, 'Come on, let's go!' with the scarf she had taken off casually tied on, and I walked over to her side with a small sigh..

"Wait a minute, come to work."

"huh? why?"

Facing Choi Se-hee, who came towards me as if asking why, I stretched out my hand, slightly untied the red scarf she was wearing, and tied it straight again. If you pull it like this and tie it again...

"Okay, that's it. let's go again."

"Yes..."

For some reason, we climbed the mountain again with Choi Se-hee, whose ears were slightly red again..

I feel like my eyes have become quieter after taking a break. Isn’t it true, as I keep climbing, my eyes no longer go up??

"Hey, my eyes are almost blind now.?"

"That's right."

When Choi Se-hee raised her hand to the sky and said that, I nodded. It definitely stopped.

And, perhaps because we are up high, we can see the open blue sky..

After looking up there for a while, I held on to my shaky legs and climbed to the top..

Now I can look down.

And after looking at the view for a while, we finally arrived in front of a huge cave..

"Is this the place? There was someone who came to visit us...."

"uh. It's probably in here. Oh, and don't be surprised if you see anything.."

"hey. When you say that, it suddenly gets a little scary...."

I went inside with Choi Se-hee next to me, trembling slightly as if overwhelmed by the huge, black cave..

hmm. As soon as I arrived, I started to worry..

...Do you think you can seduce this??

Starders' office is upstairs..

"....."

Shin Haru, who was sitting there blankly working as usual, suddenly leaned back against the backrest and muttered without realizing it..

"....It's late."

And her blue eyes that say that.

I was quietly looking at the small calendar that was placed next to the monitor on my desk..
