Episode 45. Be still.

“Kyaaa!!”

When he came to his senses, the boy realized that he heard a scream in his ears.

It’s a voice I remember.

Obviously…….

Yes, it was the girl who competed with him.

From the mouth of the girl who thought she would never lose her composure, something she thought would never come out came out.

What happened?

“Stop, sir.”

I knew that right away just by carving the shadow in front of me into my eyes.

Broken ceiling.

Even so, a woman in a white gown guarding her stomach, with her back to the bright light shining through her.

Her face definitely existed in my memory.

“Teacher, why… ….”

“It’s okay.”

At least with a tired face.

Her face always smiled kindly at herself.

“It’s okay, there is no problem.”

The calm voice that came out of her mouth was also clearly imprinted in my memory.

-Jurruk.

With the sticky liquid that fell underneath.

To the extent that the iron fishy smell that flows from it is colorless.

“Ah… ….”

In the midst of blurry vision gradually becoming clearer.

I also felt the sound of breathing coming out of my mouth getting thicker.

“Ah, ugh… ….”

As it is elastic.

Before it eventually turned into sobs.

“It’s okay, Dale.”

Soon, the shadow that was hiding in front of me began to quietly put my body on top of me and put my strength into it.

“Because the teacher is fine. It’s not your fault, so you don’t have to blame yourself.”

“But… ….”

“Be still.”

I wanted to say something.

I thought I should at least apologize for having done this.

Even he hasn’t fully realized what’s happened yet……. Because she realized that she had created the opportunity.

“Just a moment, please stay still.”

But she denies that idea.

Repeatedly admonishing her heart and advancing from her seat.

“Don’t look at anything.”

A slow but very monotonous step.

I can’t see any trembling from the hand stroking my hair.

“Don’t listen to anything… ….”

There was still warmth in her voice.

As if there really was no danger in this situation.

“… Yes, it will get better after a while, so please stay calm.”

But I can feel the fishy smell of iron in her nose getting thicker.

I buried my face even deeper into her arms to escape from that repulsive smell, but even then, I could feel the warmth from her arms gradually cooling down.

Even so, I couldn’t bear to say an apology.

Because she didn’t want that.

Unless she asked for something, she herself couldn’t say anything to her.

-Turbuck, turbuck.

And it wasn’t just the boy in his arms who was silent.

The scenes of madness that had bitten each other before were buried in chaos with the collapse of the sky, and even that was now swallowed up in silence.

No one, even among the thousands of people gathered here, sees the red light bathing the center of the gymnasium and says nothing.

The tragedy happened because the victim’s behavior was too calm.

“Harsion. Are you alive?”

The place where the footsteps eventually stopped was the place where the man standing in the same space was seated.

“…Yeah, thanks.”

Fortunately, he succeeded in evacuating to the outskirts, but suffered minor scratches.

The girl in his arms was also trembling, but her trauma was not visible at all.

“Se, Seine-sensei… ….”

The moment the girl struggled to call her name, the boy’s head moved away from his arms for a moment and turned toward the girl’s face.

The place where that gaze was directed was neither he nor she, but the traces she had passed through.

The pupil where the earthquake occurred was teaching us that what was visible was just as serious.

“I’m glad. Both of you are fine.”

Looking down at the girl, she smiled and looked down at the boy in her arms.

So that Sosogoth stands next to him.

Nevertheless, he stances so that his back is not visible.

“Seo, sir… ….”

“Harsion.”

Even so, her attention has already been taken to herself.

Her

The man whose name was called quietly raised her to her feet and met her eyes with hers.

“I’ll take care of these kids while I’m gone.”

A familiar tone of voice, as if facing an old relationship.

The man asked hard at him.

“What are you going to do… ….”

“Well, I can’t show the kids what they can’t see, so I have to step back.”

I can’t see you.

Is it because of what state it is now?

No, I can only imagine.

I can recall that image as clearly as what I see with my eyes.

‘It’s okay, Dale. There is no problem.’

A fragment of a nightmare I had this morning.

“It’s okay Dale. There’s nothing wrong with you.”

She put the same words into her mouth.

Within her seat, she slowly began to turn her back.

‘Stay calm there.’

Just like that time, move the bloody back.

“Stay calm there.”

Leaving the same words, preparing to move on to the other side.

“Teacher… ….”

Right after her miserable back was about to be engraved in her eyes.

“Be still.”

A hand stretched out from behind covered the boy’s eyes and pulled him back, stopping the steps he was about to take.

“Stay still for now, please.”

A voice that makes you feel desperate.

Unable to shake it off, the boy’s eyes gradually began to get wet, and moisture began to build up in his thick hands.

Her salivary glands dry up and her breath hardens as the moisture has been drawn up from her throat.

“Don’t go.”

Nevertheless, the boy eventually squeezed out his choked breath and reached out his hand in the dark to appeal.

” Sensei Seine… …. Please.”

In this isolated world, the one and only gift that gave him away will leave forever.

“Don’t leave me alone… ….”

That was the reason.

Because I was so afraid of the fact that I was none other than myself.

***

I can clearly feel the shards of glass embedded in my back.

As expected, the feeling of the crumbled fragments breaking through the inside.

But if I pull it out right now, the bleeding will be worse.

After escaping from the child’s arms, she managed to use the mana that returned to her to suppress her wounds, but she couldn’t accumulate more damage than this.

“Hey! Teacher, what the heck…….”

“It’s okay, go do your thing.”

Of course, I did not appeal to the students or teachers I encountered on the way.

There is no need to escalate the situation in a situation where he is not dead yet.

-Jurruk.

Of course, if I leave it like this, I could really die.

“I have never been so dangerous on a real battlefield… ….”

There have been times when we have been bombed, surrounded by enemies 10 times the size of our troops, or rescued prisoners by running into 100 times the number of enemies.

But at that time, resistance was still possible.

It was the first time in my life that I was helplessly hit by an indiscriminate disaster like this.

I never thought I would voluntarily take on such a risk.

“…… Whoa.”

Anyway, we managed to get to the health room.

Sitting my tired body down on the bed, I immediately recited a prayer with my hands together.

I don’t know if it’s another part, but it’s because there’s a piece of glass stuck in my back, so I can’t treat it myself.

That said, there was too much blood to wait for the follower, so I had to do it even if I wasn’t sure.

“Clé, if you can hear me, come out.”

At the end of prayer, a radiance rises before me.

What appeared before long were two small hands made of light.

The moment my god, Clea of Medicine, descended here.

-…… !

But she didn’t wave her hand or give her thumbs up as usual to express her delight.

There is no choice but to do so.

Everybody would be worried if they saw the body of a believer who had embodied himself covered in shards of glass.

-!!!!!!!

Clé walks around me with her hands shaking as if she is very surprised.

I answered her with a smile on her face.

“It’s okay. Because I avoided the vital point.”

After getting out of the effect of nullification, he used mana to minimize bleeding.

Even though it can’t be completely blocked, it’s not enough to kill you right away, so you can rest assured.

-…… ! …… !!! !!!!

But whatever the reason, hurt is hurt.

As if she couldn’t bear to face me properly, Klee started swinging her own hands around.

As if I’m trying to somehow express my feelings, even with a body that can’t speak.

-Pang, pang-pang.

Clé finally starts tapping the bed curtains and duvet with her hands.

Looking at her, she felt really proud.

“Are you straightening the blanket? Thank you, it was difficult to organize by myself.”

-!!!!!!!

As if shocked by my words, Cle pointed with his left hand and then raised the stick with the other hand before dropping it.

Conversely, when I saw him drunk, he seemed to tell me not to talk bullsh*t.

If I taught you how to get f*cked here, you would have told me to eat sh*t, right?

“I’m sorry, Clé. I’m at my limit right now, but could you treat me instead?”

Unfortunately, however, now was not the time to be late.

Because now I was physically and mentally at my limit.

“The painkillers are over there, and the surgical threads and scissors are in the first aid kit over there… ….”

After she explained to her what she needed, her two hands started hurriedly wandering around her nursery.

Yeah, it should be fine if you keep it like this.

She’s a god younger than me, but she’s a better doctor than me.

– Plopped.

As if I had surrendered to that kind of trust, my body collapsed on the bed before long.

The moment the flowing blood soaks the bedspread.

As if the stickiness were like a swamp, it deeply sank my consciousness.

And…….

***

-Hwiing.

The sound of the sand wind blowing in the wilderness.

When I opened my eyes again, what I saw was a rough floor and large and small chunks of rocks scattered here and there.

The shadows seen in the distance were telling us that this was a canyon area.

‘…… Dream.’

I knew right away.

The mere fact of stepping into a place where there is no way to set foot again… Maybe it was 5 years ago in terms of timing?

At that time, while escorting the wounded, I sent my subordinates first, and then I was isolated in the middle of the canyon while evading the pursuing soldiers.

It was such a dangerous situation… Well, the fact that that time came out as a dream means that at least you won’t see Ami-nyeon’s face in this dream.

That b*tch was stuck in a corner of my house and didn’t even think about coming out, no matter how sh*tty the situation was.

– Patter.

But fortunately out of misfortune doesn’t mean really fortunate.

As soon as something in an ambush behind a nearby rock pointed a weapon at my back, my steps while looking around stopped right there.

Just like back then.

‘Quietly.’

A cool feeling at the tip of your back.

When I looked at the shadow right below me, I could see that there was an existence much smaller than me standing there.

Are you aiming a sword with such a small body?

‘Be quiet, stay… ….’

Your voice sounds like you haven’t even drank water in days.

There was nothing that I couldn’t understand as it was a wasteland everywhere.

‘Give me medicine, bandages, everything you have… ….’

But when I raised both hands, what the opponent asked for was not water or food, but relief goods.

Is that because they know that I am a soldier who goes out to save people? Or did it come from a desire to have something needed?

Only one thing was certain.

If you are an enemy soldier, you can kill them and take them away, but just by threatening them, you know that this ‘boy’ has not yet been defiled.

‘Can I just take the medicine?’

That would be enough, I thought, and immediately turned around and dropped the knife the boy was aiming at.

In the first place, he had no strength whatsoever.

If the body is hardened with mana, it can be easily deflected.

‘Go away! This… …. Wow!’

‘Be quiet.’

I grabbed the boy who was trying to resist and stroked the wound on his face.

A wound that heals through the exposed divine power.

The skinny body and thick lips showed that this boy had suffered a lot.

But the first thing that caught my eye was the outfit the boy was wearing.

It is a school uniform that is not a military uniform, and only has an insignia that tells you that you belong to the military.

‘Are there more injured children? Tell me the place I’ll treat you right away.’

It was common in war.

Utilizing child soldiers and student soldiers to make up for the lack of troops.
