Chapter 227
My Villains Episode 227
47. nightmare(9)
For a moment, I thought I had fallen asleep while feeling floating. We were thrown out into the black passage like we had been before..
Cole and I quickly got into position and landed on the ground.-
“ Q ” Hayla twisted and fell forward..
Fortunately, I didn't fall face down on the floor, but I fell pretty hard and I'm worried that my knee may have been damaged..
By the way, there's another kid whose stats aren't good enough. If you have 15 Dexterity points, you will be at athlete level, if not superhuman.…….
“ are you okay?”
Hayla remained silent for a moment while lying on her stomach. It looks like it hurts a lot.
While I was helping her up, Cole was looking around with sharp eyes. It was a quiet space like a suburban mansion and Tawj Den..
“Another strange place.”
“……That's right.”
The place we fell into was a large room..
The first thing I noticed were six or seven chairs. A neatly designed steel chair that can seat three people side by side..
On all four walls, which were finished in dark gray, there was a turned-off television and various picture frames hanging. Most of them were pictures with information about diseases in dogs and cats, and there were also posters with the phrase ‘Have you registered your animal?’ written in large letters, and a picture of a middle-aged man in a white coat hugging a golden retweet river on the lawn..
In short…….
“I don’t think it’s Middle World this time either..”
Hayla, who was being helped by me, seemed a little surprised by the exotic, no, otherworldly scene unfolding around her..
“Poi, it's your dream?”
“ maybe.”
“Where am I??”
“……Uh, I'm not sure..”
I scratched my eyebrows at her staring gaze and quickly added,.
“There are few people who remember their dreams one by one..”
“I'm saying I don't remember.?”
“Well, something like that.……
As I vaguely spoke, Hayla quietly looked up at me and nodded, saying, ‘Yes, I am.’.
Meanwhile, Kol was approaching the only door panel and listening closely. For a moment, he turned towards us and whispered in a low voice..
“I don't pretend to be popular.”
W Ugh
■司三
I tapped his shoulder to stop the call and then tried to listen. As he said, I couldn't hear anything, so I slowly turned the doorknob..
After the small squeak of the hinge, the first thing I saw was the logo engraved on the wall in front..
Under the logo symbolizing a dog, a cat, and a heart, it was written ‘Saepum Animal Medical Center.’ I slowly leaned out and looked at the door plate, and found that the room we ended up in was the guardian waiting room..
As I had already expected as I looked at the picture frames in the room, this was a veterinary hospital..
It's also a very familiar place, having been there a few times since it's close to where I live..
The hospital lobby and the street seen through the front window were empty and empty..
It's not a busy area, but it's a neighborhood with quite a floating population, but it feels odd because there are no people or cars at all in broad daylight..
“It's okay if I come out. there is nothing.”
Cole and Hayla, who came to the lobby under my guidance, could not hide their confusion..
“••••••her.”
Although the two of them have very calm personalities, the streets of modern Korea seen outside the window must be a completely different world..
How could medieval people living in the Middle World not be surprised when they saw six-lane roads paved with asphalt, trees lined up along the road, and electronic signs with flashing phrases such as 'seat belts for all seats'?.
Of course, the highlight was different..
“••••••and.”
Hayla, who approached the front window, shook her head and let out an exclamation. I think this is the first time I’ve seen her express her admiration out loud..
“What is that??”
“It's some kind of house.”
19Hayla, looking up at the two-story apartment building, blinked and asked.
“Who lives there??”
“……well. I'm curious too.”
Leaving behind Cole and Hayla, who were looking at the street with shocked faces, I looked inside the hospital again..
“••••••Hmm.”
This dream was completely different from the suburban mansion..
The memories of being trapped in that mansion were dormant beneath my consciousness, but the memories related to this animal hospital and the neighborhood were relatively clear..
But why did I fall into this animal hospital??
With that question in mind, I walked slowly..
Starting with the guardian waiting room in the far corner, I looked through the restroom, treatment room, hospitalization room, and director's office in order, but there was nothing special..
Next was the treatment room..
As I was opening the heavy slide door, I thought I heard a breathing sound. It was a small, faint sound that made me think it was an auditory hallucination..
I immediately stiffened and pulled out Hrunting first. Even though I pulled it out slowly, my hand was shaking a little, so the sword squeak rang..
The eerie sound made me pause a little, but my mind quickly calmed down as I looked at the milky blade with faint black lines. It was reassuring to have in my hands a mysterious sword that could cut down even a decent ghost..
The treatment room was narrow.
‘It was a very ordinary structure with two chairs facing each other around an ivory table bent in a V shape..
I took a quick look around the room, but it was empty. There doesn't seem to be any space for people to hide..
As I was about to turn around, wondering if I had heard wrong, there was something that caught my eye. Lying in a corner of the treatment room was a brown kennel, commonly called a ‘carrier’..
«......2”
It's not unusual for a veterinary hospital to have a kennel, but it feels odd. So, I approached cautiously and squatted down in front of the iron-barred door.,
Sigh.
“Wow, I'm surprised..”
I almost fell flat on my ass when I heard a sudden sound from inside the kennel..
When I looked again, I saw a small kitten inside the kennel, with its whiskers standing upright, barking at me..
The sight of a guy half the size of my palm with his ears folded back and his teeth the size of narrow grains exposed is not threatening, but rather cute..
“••••••Wow.”
However, the tangerine-colored stripes are somehow familiar to the eye. I think I've seen the maple leaf-shaped white hair between the eyes somewhere..
As I was tilting my head, the kitten that was cowering in the corner of the kennel suddenly stopped yapping..
Then, it came close to the iron bars, scratched the lock with its front paws, and cried, 'Meow, meow.'.
“Uh, open it?”
Awesome-
After hesitating for a moment after hearing the dog's earnest cry, I opened the kennel door. The kitten quickly ran out and struggled to climb up my leg..
“Uh, hey, my fingernails are hurt..”
I quickly took off the guy who was scratching the shin pads I got after defeating the 'living armor' a few days ago and took him into my arms..
As if the cat wasn't satisfied with that, it scratched my chest and climbed up my body, licking my chin and lips..
“It hurts, hey, stop it.”
He smiled heartily and stroked his soft fur, and I was able to recognize his identity through that touch..
“hey. You are a fool?”
I don't know if you understood me.
It was crying loudly, rubbing its forehead against its uvula, biting its chin, and rubbing its tail and buttocks against its forearms... … It wasn't just an ordinary mess..
Bobpuri is a cat I picked up in front of my living room about 7 or 8 years ago..
It had no mother and all its siblings were dead nearby, so I brought it home and looked after it, but it fell ill and crossed the rainbow bridge..
They said they couldn't provide proper treatment because they didn't have tens of thousands of won. Perhaps that memory remained so strong that it appeared in the realm of dreams like this..
“What can I do? “Can I just take him with me like this?” Oh my. While I was wandering around for a while, enjoying my reunion with Bappuri, something strange happened..
“......uh?”
The small body, which was about half the size of my palm, began to swell. At the same time, the hand that was stroking him was covered in yellow fur..
“Hey, wait a minute. This is not it.”
For a moment, my eyes became dark. It reminded me of a nurse whose neck had grown as long as a neck and Chief Heo whose body had grown as big as a house..
““Oh, this,” I was fidgeting and just hugging the rice bowl..
Experience tells me that it would be best to twist its neck before it turns into some hideous monster.,
“X8, you have to say something that makes sense..”
Of course, that was impossible. In the end, unable to do anything, I screamed outside the treatment room..
“Heyla! call!”
“Poynix?” By the time the two people who had been frantically looking at the street rushed to the treatment room, the food had already grown to almost the size of a human body. Almost all of his hair had fallen out, leaving his white skin exposed..
“uh?”
……White skin? The cat monster, white skin?
Wait a minute, I think I experienced something similar to this once.-
“Uh, uhh?”
The woman whose hair had completely fallen out was revealed to be naked..
Black hair that barely touches the shoulders, half-closed eyes as if drunk, tight nose and lips..
“……Mung, Chiya?”
Before I knew it, the baby cheese tabby was gone, and a bundle of oriental assassins was in my arms..
“Ahhh,”
The guy didn't seem to notice that his appearance had changed and was rubbing himself against my neck, chest, and forearms in a trance.…….
“••••••Uh, um,”
I've felt this before, but the lump doesn't match my youthful appearance, uh, what should I say, my insides are full. Anyway, that's it..
For a guy like that to hug me so close and twist my body without even a single layer of clothing on, well, it's embarrassing, but at the same time, it's embarrassing.,
Grumbling-
I was holding the bundle in a daze, but when I heard the sound of the slide door opening behind me, I quickly turned around. And I shouted with my back to the door..
“Wait a minute, Cole.!”
“Yes, what's going on?,”
“Don't come in, look in the other room..”
“yes? that is……
Cole, who continued to question, opened his mouth wide..
“......bunch, seeds‘?”
I think I noticed an arm wrapped around my neck, a small head sticking out over my shoulder, and a calf shaking alternately as if splashing in the water..
“No, what kind of situation is this?,”
“Don't talk nonsense, go get some clothes for him..”
“Um, okay..”
By the time Cole left in a hurry and Hayla entered the treatment room, Munchi had also come to his senses..
“……Uh, uh, uhh?”
After regaining focus, he looked at his body and me in turn, and his face turned red..
Then, the cute ears, slender neck, concave collarbone, and shoulders with small scars bloomed red..
“to zenme poi.”
“……Calm down. My face is going to explode.”
“Ah, this, why?.”
Munggi, who showed embarrassment, surprise, and disappointment on his face, just stuttered like a person who had lost the ability to speak..
Then, when I glanced away, he closed his mouth and held me close. It was not a gesture to satisfy self-interest like before, but a gesture that could not bear shame..
As a joke, I said, ‘Hey, why are you so embarrassed? It's already behind the Longville stronghold... … ' I wanted to say something, but,
Heyla, who was leaning against the doorway of the treatment room with an expressionless face, didn't know what to say, so I decided to just keep quiet..
Fortunately, Cole came back in less than 10 minutes, retrieving a bundle of clothes and all the equipment. When I asked him where he found it, he pointed to a room on the side with his hand..
……Dog grooming salon? No, why did you do that??
Mung Chi is fully armed with a light linen top and bottom, a short robe that barely touches the thighs, light suede boots, vambraces with small crossbows, and a sword belt with a 'cloud sword' and a 'blinking dagger'.,
“......Ahhh......
Both cheeks and the nape of the neck were still stained bright red. I watched him quietly and smiled and stroked his hair..
“Hey, don't be so shy. I didn't see anything.”
“••••••yes.”
It seems that even outright lies are not very comforting. That's strange, was he always this shy??
After roughly resolving the situation, I looked back at the group. Everyone seemed embarrassed that they had landed in modern Korea, no, in another world, so I put on a confident expression..
“Now let's move.”
“do you have a plan?”
“huh. There is a place that I can roughly guess..”
As I left the hospital with Hrunting in hand, the other three quickly followed suit..
Walking down a six-lane road lined with high-rise apartments, shopping malls, shoe stores, bus stops, and street trees would have been an unimaginable experience for residents of Middle World..
Still, Munchi, Hayla, and Kol maintained their composure. In particular, Mungchi just looked around as if he was curious, and seemed to be alert like a cat on the hunt..
Well, Mungchi is a guy from Dongbang, another world. Although the surrounding scenery is amazing, it's not enough to cause panic..
After crossing the railroad crossing, I entered the alley and walked for about 5 minutes before the officetel building where I lived appeared..
“••••••Hmm.”
Looking at the convenience store across the street, it seems like it was at least 5 years ago. Around that time, a gym was built over there..
As I pretended to be calm while being aware of my confused companions, I felt like I was really calming down. Or maybe you feel comfortable because it's a familiar neighborhood..
“It's this way.”
“……to,”
I narrowed my eyes as I looked at the entrance to the officetel. Having entered an unfamiliar world, I felt reluctant to enter a narrow building..
“Where am I??”
“……uh. I don't know.”
In response to Hayla's question, I just shrugged my shoulders and gave a vague answer..
“Should I just say that I have a feeling that I should go this way? I think it's like this because it's a dream world..”
It was a rough statement, but…….
What can I do? I don’t know anything about the realm of dreams, so I guess I’ll just have to do it..
Since I couldn't take the elevator with my nervous companions, I chose the stairs..
2We arrived in front of room 506 without incident, except that Hayla sprained her ankle when the landing light suddenly turned on while going from the floor to the third floor..
“••••••also.”
506Ho's visit was stained pitch black. It is the same color that dyes the gate of a suburban mansion..
Leaving the group behind for a moment, he slowly approached the door and raised his hand..
When the Death King's scaled carapace touched the black metallic surface.,
Googungung-
Black energy dispersed with a short roar. Then, as if they had been waiting, the door to room 506 suddenly opened..
“……Oh, Seungsu..”
What appeared were two men..
50There was one man who looked to be in his late teens and one man who looked to be in his forties..
The former, a man about my father's age, smiled brightly..
“If I had known it would be there soon, I would have waited in front of the door. As you get older,
I just got in a hurry.”
“I told the person watching security that it was Seungsu's father. I don't mean that in a bad way, so I hope you don't feel offended..”
In a world where there were no people, two men appeared and started talking incomprehensible words, making Mungchi look extremely nervous..
Fortunately, the quick-witted Cole quickly stopped the guy, so he doesn't seem to be doing anything rash..
I played with the handle of the Hrunting and opened my mouth..
“What's going on here??”
“Hehe, why would I come looking for Seungsu? I came to look for my daughter..”
“But you can't just come into someone else's house..”
“We haven't even seen each other once or twice, so how can we become strangers? huh?”
He's still a pissed off guy..
When I kept my mouth shut, this time a young man came forward..
“I'm very worried because she disappeared without contacting me even though she's not alone. Have you contacted Heewon??”
I looked at the guy who was talking informally and smiled..
“Yes, I contacted you..”
“Oh, really? I know where it is?”
“They said they would wait in the afterlife..”
The two men's faces immediately distorted. Just as the distortion was about to exceed the range of expression, I quickly added:.
“I'm kidding.”
“……You ignorant bastard, there are things you can say and things you can't say.-”
“It's in the cafe in front of me. This is the route we were just talking about..”
The two men made eye contact. The bizarrely twisted facial features are coming back to normal..
I made a subtle gesture towards them..
“Let's go. I'll guide you.”
“……Um, I guess so..”
Heewon's father took the lead, leaving behind, and Heewon's husband followed behind..
The moment they passed me,
I swung Hrunting..
Sucker enemy!
“Inhale,”
Shocked, Cole gasped, and the heads of the two middle-aged men fell to the floor, spurting blood..
“……after.”
“Poynix, this is,”
“I did it the natural way..”
He roughly brushed off the blood on Hrunting and smiled. My heart was beating so fast it felt like it was going to jump out of my mouth, but it still didn't feel too bad..
“They were the bastards that had to be hunted down..”
Googoo googung-
There was a loud noise again..
This time it was several times bigger than before, and it continued..
At that time, a black disk appeared as if to hide my messy living room. I swept up my bangs with hands trembling from the exhilaration..
“Come on, let's go.”
When I turned around, the bunch quickly followed, and Hayla and Kol followed suit and jumped into the black disk..
