355 Molting (2) “Ugh, wow...” As soon as I set her down, Shin Minseo collapsed onto the floor. “I feel like I’m going to throw up...” She was a bit unsteady, unlike Gamble, who was standing upright on her own two feet. Well, Gamble was an Awakened, after all. “I had to run myself or it would’ve taken too long. My apologies.” “This school is unnecessarily huge...” Her face was still pale, but as soon as she caught her breath, Shin Minseo sprang to her…

354 Molting (1) The school is peaceful. So peaceful, in fact, that it’s almost unsettling. No, of course a school should be peaceful. But just think of all that’s happened here. We’ve had creatures with wings instead of arms attack us, monsters falling from the sky. Even for a Hunter training high school, it’s been excessive. At this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if a dungeon appeared next. ...Words have a way of coming true. I should watch what I say. At any rate, the quiet days…

353 Kitchen Garden and Greenhouse (3) Human emotions cannot be so easily divided, as if slicing a radish. It’s the same with Kang Taewoo. Every time I look at that child, I’m filled with complicated feelings. Though, under protective measures, we’ve become something like family, it’s not quite right to call us real family. But to say we’re not family at all—that’s not true, either. It’s just complicated. It’s hard to define. Of course, I know he’s not the kind of kid I…

352 Kitchen Garden and Greenhouse (2) The greenhouse was completed in no time. The plants Kim Chaemin had transplanted, along with the flowers the children had planted, filled the kitchen garden surrounding the greenhouse. Han Taekyung would be the one to procure the mana grass. After all, at school he didn’t have much to do except play with the kids. Might as well put him to use this way. “But you know, I’ve been thinking.” Thinking, huh... “Wouldn’t it help my future plans more to…

351 Kitchen Garden and Greenhouse (1) Until just before I came to the past, I preferred to make plans for the future. I had dreams, vague though they were, of retiring at a certain age and living out my days in some quiet, warm country. At that time, I even thought I might sponsor a promising young director and contribute to the film industry. I saved up money for that purpose, too. With my father around, I never truly worried about money, but I won’t deny that watching my bank balance steadily…

350 Interference (3) One must live with a positive outlook. What’s the point of worrying over what’s already happened? I always say this: instead of dwelling on the past, you should deal with what’s right in front of you, one thing at a time. This is no different. What’s done is done. Unless something truly bizarre happens and someone travels back in time, there’s no way to change what has already occurred. So, what should one do? First, let’s try to think positively. Kim…

349 Interference (2) “Alex?” I led Kim Chaemin to Sandra Gamble. Even then, Kim Chaemin remained silent. Now that I thought about it, there hadn’t been many occasions for Kim Chaemin to meet Hope directly. Not that there were none… but at those times, Kim Chaemin had always said there was something he needed to check and had cut off contact, leaving the scene. It was only later that I learned Kim Chaemin had been cultivating mana grass in the collapsed territory during that period.…

348 Interference (1) “Inside from inside?” “You can only destroy a dungeon core by entering the dungeon in the first place.” “Well, that’s because the core is inside the dungeon…” I almost asked why he was stating the obvious, but stopped myself. It wasn’t as if Kim Chaemin didn’t know that; there was something elusive, something just out of reach, that was catching at me. Inside the dungeon, from inside. Henry Lehmann, who had turned into a wooden puppet inside Kim…

Table of Contents Woo Heejae is 13! Save Your World2-1. Some Things Do Not Change The Graduation That Might Have Been Woo Heejae is 13! That is my last memory. “……!” I gasped for breath. Just now…? My fingertips tingled. I couldn’t feel anything. All that remained was the instinct that something was wrong. But what? What was wrong? I tried to recall what I’d done before falling asleep. I was planning to see a movie I’d been waiting for after…

347 Reciprocity (2) Hong Seokyeong returned to America. We’d spent more time in the dungeon than expected. Hong Seokyeong ignored his phone as it rang incessantly, but in the end, he trudged off to the States. He left without even seeing Woo Irok. ‘Was there any point in coming back at all?’ ‘Stop complaining and just go.’ He left the cleanup to me. But there wasn’t much for me to do. The traces of smuggling found in the collapsed warehouse would be handled by the local…

346 Reciprocity (1) Imi-seon turned off the TV with a complicated expression. I blurted out reflexively. “We didn’t do it.” “We really didn’t do it.” “We didn’t do it.” Kim Chaemin and Hong Seokyeong said it at the same time. Imi-seon looked at us in disbelief. “Who said you did? How are you all saying the exact same thing…?” “Didn’t you look like you were about to say something?” “This is…” Imi-seon closed her mouth. “…This…

345 A Blessing Upon You (4) “But even if it’s an automaton, it doesn’t make sense.” “It’s magic, isn’t it?” “Magic isn’t omnipotent!” Saying that while using magic… Still, I understood what Kim Chaemin was getting at. The automatons of Noah Michel I’d seen were, at best, devices that executed programmed commands precisely. They didn’t become Henry Lehmann. What do you even call that? What Kim Chaemin fought was undoubtedly Henry Lehmann. I’d never met the man…

344 A Blessing Upon You (3) A rough surface, bumpy as if bubbles had risen beneath it. Thin limbs, as if dried twigs had been cut and stuck together, twitching hands, and the blue thread of magic connecting those hands to the torso. I could only stare in stunned silence, unable even to think of cutting the magic as I had with the monsters we’d captured underground. And as always, it was Kim Chaemin who gathered his thoughts and put them into action faster. With vines, Kim Chaemin tore off the…

343 A Blessing Upon You (2) The scent of roses was so thick it stung my nose. The moment we emerged from underground, the sight before us made me dizzy for an instant. Hong Seokyeong seemed equally stunned, rendered speechless for a moment. “…What happened here?” If even Hong Seokyeong was saying that, it spoke volumes. Compared to the oppressive force we’d felt passing through the dungeon gate, the dungeon itself had been peaceful. The star-filled sky was almost romantic. The…

342 A Blessing Upon You (1) A few days earlier. Busan. The basement of the Atlas warehouse. “…Once this is all over, how about going hiking together, Heejae?” “Hiking?” I grimaced immediately. It’s not that I dislike hiking, but anyone who knows Hong Seokyeong knows exactly what he means by “hiking.” That’s not something you can call hiking. Even if it were real hiking, still… “Go by yourself.” “What’s the fun in hiking alone!” “Hiking is…

341 Roses in the Sea (2) The waves crashed. The sea stretched endlessly toward the star-filled sky. Perhaps because of that sky, it was easy to perceive the dungeon as an infinite space. It was only natural that people would attempt to explore it. An ecosystem, plants, and animals—later called monsters—unlike anything found on Earth. It wasn’t hard to understand why some people found a kind of romance in such a place. Staring up at that starry sky, it was easy to fall into such…

340 Roses in the Sea (1) “……!” Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, Kim Chaemin recognized the face of that monster—at least, the face in the form of a human man—who was grinning at him, baring his teeth. But recognizing the face had nothing to do with the murderous aura radiating from him. Kim Chaemin immediately launched an attack. “Ah, aaah. Th-this... thi-i-i-i...” The man smiled coldly. He grabbed Kim Chaemin’s vine with his bare hand. Of course, Kim Chaemin…

339 Almighty Mage (3) “Ugh.” The moment he crossed the gate, a crushing pressure weighed down on his entire body. Kim Chaemin let out an involuntary groan between clenched teeth. At the same time, he raised a shield around himself. He had rarely experienced such oppressive force before. The last time he’d felt something like this was... The Siren Dungeon. An S-rank dungeon. Fortunately, there was no attack waiting to ambush him the moment he entered. He must not forget that dungeon…

338 The Almighty Magician (2) ‘Come to think of it.’ There was a time when Woo Hee-jae had asked a question. ‘Ms. Kim, you’re different from the magicians I know.’ When was it? It was before she knew Woo Hee-jae’s true identity—back when she’d been lured by the rune he showed her and decided to work at the experimental high school, or rather, the pilot school. It was during the period when she was pushing Woo Hee-jae hard to learn various runes and had begun to grow attached…
