激情短篇少妇系列小说

I’d seen and experienced many magical sights before, but what was happening now made me uneasy.

A huge light continued to fill the earth.

It continued to light up the place where Kim Hyunsung was.

That was when the dark vision returned in an instant.

All senses suddenly returned as if a dark room had just been lit up. I felt the fresh air as if I had come out of a sinking swamp.

‘Right... the future...’

Whoooooooooosh.

I heard voices that I hadn’t been hearing before. I could see everyone’s faces. I could feel the wind blowing slowly and the pleasant light.

My arms weren’t shaking anymore, nor was my face distorted. I had stood up without realizing it.

“Hyung-nim...”

It was the pig bastard closest to me who was holding my hand.

“O-O-Oppa...”

I could see Jung Hayan holding my arms and sticking together.

Everyone was looking at me. Not only the Blue Guild members but everyone in the place.

Among them, some were on their knees, and others had their heads bowed. Some were offering prayers, and others were holding hands.

The people who raised their wounded bodies, the lovers and colleagues holding each other’s hands, and the people who I seemed to have met at least once somewhere on the continent, looking around me, somehow made me smile.

Of course, I wasn’t getting sentimental, but...

“Did you come back to your senses?”

And when wasn’t I in my senses?

“A-Are you okay? Oppa?”

Of course, I’m fine. So, did you really think I wasn’t well? Why is Hayan so full of tears and a runny nose? I need to clean it up for her.

“What the hell happened? Hyung-nim? Hyung-nim?”

“Shut up. You’re making me go nuts. Pig bastard.”

“S-Still, we need an explanation. What the hell now...? Hyung-nim... just now, you were definitely...”

Was I a bit weird?

I stroked Hayan’s hair while she was still looking at me with an anxious expression and wiped her face.

I heard a pleasant sound of laughter as if reassured, but I had no choice but to look up at the sky again after that.

Because things weren’t completely over yet.

“Hyunsung...”

“Enough. Don’t say anything.”

“...”

“I can get things back.”

“R... Really? Vice Guild Master?”

“Right. Hyejin. I can turn things back.”

“Is that... is that true?”

“Yes.”

Now I felt a bit better.

Now I had time to look around.

“Son of Light... ”

“Lee Kiyoung... ”

“The Son of Light has returned... and forgiven the sins of the God of Sunset... the Son of Light, who has returned from the dead...”

I spread my wings while hearing the murmurs of the bards and priests.

The wings spread from behind my back, and once again, the light poured out.

The feeling of my body being filled with divinity was always pleasant. I muttered quietly as my head cleared.

“I will present the future.”

Actually, I didn’t know what had happened.

It was impossible to determine whether what was happening now was planned or unplanned, but one thing was certain.

An immutable truth that would never change.

‘Fuck, that means I’m a genius. Well.’

I couldn’t remember very well, but it had all been planned and designed.

Even Kim Hyunsung’s sacrifice was in my head.

It gave me chills.

I couldn’t say for sure as it hadn’t been properly sorted out yet, but probably everything was connected.

The pendant, the Foreign War, Doom Doom Hyunsung, Resurrection, and Death.

I thought that everything would be entangled like a spider’s web. It was a well-planned script from start to finish, and I was just moving according to the script.

Kim Hyunsung was probably the same. Jihye and Yuno Kasugano, too... everything was necessary to see the end.

Even if not, it didn’t matter. It had been done the way I originally thought.

‘You’re scary. Lee Kiyoung. How far did you really look ahead? You’re a real genius.’

“Even I’m scared.”

“Hyung-nim... what...?”

“Deukgu. Bring me the receiver.”

“Ah...”

“Quickly. Hayan, block out ambient noise. Can you prepare for the shoot?”

“Ah... Yeah... Yeah!”

I slowly spread my arms, exaggeratedly like an actor on stage. I saw the faces of those who were looking at me quietly brightening.

– I guess you’re yourself now, Oppa?

“How was my acting, Jihye?”

– Acting, my ass. Don’t speak nonsense. Anyone who looked at you could see that you were out of yourself. I was really perplexed. Really. Anyway, I’d expected something to happen, but I was very surprised. To be honest, I’d thought it was over too.

“...”

– You will be surprised to see the real-time reaction on Benignore Net. I guess the other people didn’t like seeing you like that. I tried to block it as much as possible, but I couldn’t help it.

“I guess you had time to look at it.”

– Because it’s important.

Right. She was right.

– The Sunset Swordsman sacrificed for the Son of Light. If the story ends here, I don’t really care, but it wouldn’t be like that for you. No, I’m glad too. Because your condition was more serious than I expected. It really looked like you wouldn’t come back... You pretend not to be, but you’re soft too.

“Soft, my ass.”

– So what’s the situation now?

“I think there is a conflict between the Legacy of Altanus, which Kim Hyunsung used to resurrect me, and the insurance I put in before. The light that’s falling right now is probably because of that. It’s a bit forced, but the system is still judging that Kim Hyunsung can’t disappear.”

Maybe she knew what I was talking about.

I hadn’t given a lot of detail and explanation, but she had experience running dummy worlds.

There, the system existed too. Of course, it was a degraded version that couldn’t be compared with the one that governed the continent, but the result was the same. She knew roughly how this place worked.

-The point is that you intentionally made an error.

“Right.”

-I think that dummy Lee Kiyoung did something similar...

“Perhaps he did.”

The important issue was that the conflict had been created intentionally.

Errors, bugs, etc. There were many words to describe it, but there was no denying that I’d found a loophole in a code that was running well.

Of course, the system...

-It’s going to try to repair the error.

“We have to widen that gap.”

– I understand what you mean. Until the system is normalized, we’ll snatch Kim Hyunsung, right? It was also because of this that divinity was needed. Now I understand how things are going. It’s good that it’s not in vain to have it ready to use right away.

“I’m glad.”

– I don’t know if what I’ve collected is enough, though...

“Belial and Benignore must be doing something similar. Transfer right now. And I’m going to start broadcasting right away.”

– Let’s earn in real-time, is that it?

“It’s not just that.”

That was not the only reason.

‘Because storytelling is important.’

It was, literally.

What and how the public believed was also important. Regardless of how I used them, what they believed was important.

In that sense, all of this work was meaningful. I mean, Kim Hyunsung standing up before, and now me reviving like this.

“I am the God of Sacrifice and Resurrection, Jihye.”

– The God of Sacrifice and Resurrection. I understand, but don’t you think it’s embarrassing to say it yourself?

“If the public thinks so, what can I do? It doesn’t matter if they don’t think so. You will make it happen. I will be the God of Sacrifice and Resurrection.”

– You want too much. Do you want me to manipulate public opinion in real-time?

“I love you.”

-I love you too. I’m already busy... why do I have to do this for Kim Hyunsung...? Ugh, I don’t like it...

I heard her murmuring, but after a second, I heard some other mutterings. These were probably the moles Lee Jihye had planted.

“The God of Sacrifice and Resurrection...”

“He’s the God of Sacrifice and Resurrection.”

“God of Resurrection.”

Divinity continued to come.

I spread my wings even wider. They kept muttering the same thing. It was like conducting a religious ceremony.

“Get up, God of Sunset. Then I will give you the future.”

In the voice of Lee Kiyoung, who had lost his brother by bond, who was shedding tears, I murmured in a wretched and compassionate way, in a noble and sacred way.

“Wake up... sniff... sniff... God of Sunset. Then I will give you... the future. Sniff...”

I thought it felt more realistic than before. The tears fell like a waterfall.

I thought this got more sympathy... it was better to be soft than to struggle recklessly. Right, Benignore and Director Bell? You guys work hard too.

[I forgive your sins. Rise up, Regressor of Altanus. Then I will gift you the future. (0/1)]

[Quest Clearing Reward: The future (0/2,129)]

A huge light continued to fall.

People joined hands. As always, they put their hands together like those who had witnessed a miracle.

These people had no doubt that the Sunset Swordsman would stand up with the miracles performed by the God of Sacrifice and Resurrection.

Yes. Faith was power. This faith was power. The system was a force that could not be denied and could not be ignored.

[Creating a mythic-grade forced quest.]

[I forgive your sins. Rise up, Regressor of Altanus. Then I will gift you the future. (0/1)]

[Quest Clearing Reward: The Future (0/4,122)]

Of course, there were concerns.

I was sure this would work, but I wasn’t sure there wouldn’t be any other variables.

But it would definitely be possible. Because I was not the only one who wanted Kim Hyunsung to be resurrected.

The legacy he left behind must have made the same judgment as I had. The legacy he left behind would know what was right. Right. Altanus?

‘Altanus loved the man. And... she also sympathized with his life. After much deliberation, she thought of sacrificing herself to get it all back once again. Of course, I must have stopped her back then, but... I respect her. There is probably no God who can make such a choice. Those feelings are values that are common among us... I can’t remember everything, but I do remember Altanus’ will.’

‘You love him. Right?’

‘You will help us. I think so.’

‘You must have arranged the legacy. It was due to your will that we discovered your legacy.’

I murmured once more.

“Thank you, Altanus.”
