Volume 19. Chapter 2.

Reunion chapter 1 Gray ashes continued to fall from the sky like snow flakes. Jin-Woo said goodbye to his shadow soldiers

-it’s time to go on different roads. Without a trace of regret, the hunter turned to face the leader of the Lords:

-I am ready. “The Brightest Particle of the Shining Light” called upon a bewitchingly beautiful cup. His expression was a little sad. Jin Woo’s eyes sparkled with interest when he saw this artifact. “So here it is

-the Instrument of God!

An item that can turn the clock back: The Bowl of Rebirth… ” * GLP He involuntarily swallowed when he realized that the moment had come. A moment when everything long past could begin anew. Jin-Woo was very tense. Seeing him like this, the Particle of Shining Light again asked him the question:

-Truly… Will you regret this decision?

This Vladyka spent an eternity in battles with the Rulers. He knew better than anyone how heavy the burden of such a large-scale war was when it fell on one shoulder. He perfectly understood the gravity of the burden that the Shadow Ruler was about to carry alone. The second Shadow Ruler, Jin-Woo, nodded. He won the first battle. The second battle should be much easier. He needed to make sure that was so. An expression of grim determination appeared on his face, mixed with confidence. A particle of Shining Light nodded to him too. The desire of this man to save all those who fell in this war… How could this angel not know about his determination when he himself raised the banner of rebellion against the Supreme Being?

Against his master?

And all this for the sake of the countless soldiers who died during this endless war. “I pray that your courage will save your world one more time,” the angel said earnestly and turned the Cup of Rebirth. When he did this, the light that filled the Chalice flowed to the ground, gradually and gradually soaking it. And this dazzling light slowly began to envelop the whole world. Absolutely everyone and everything. Wounded soldiers awaiting on the battlefield. Their families, who learned about their fate on TV. Those who prayed for the salvation of their loved ones. Those who turned pale after hearing ominous television reports. Those who in despair did not know how to live on. Their houses, cars, schools, offices, squares. Everyone saw this blinding light that gently penetrated through their windows. And in time the whole planet was washed with a pure radiance. And then this light, noiselessly enveloping the whole world, quietly scattered and disappeared without a trace as it appeared. Morning came. The rays of the early sun, which announced the beginning of a new day, were felt through closed eyelids. Jin-Woo, lying on his back with his eyes closed for some time, ran his hand over the familiar cover of the sheet. Although he still did not wake up to the end, his perception, which had long exceeded all human limits, could easily catch his surroundings. “Jin Na, having washed, leaves the bathroom. The smell of stew, the sounds of a knife hitting a cutting board. And finally, the familiar smell of his native room, where he spent his whole childhood. ” This was his house. He returned home. From this understanding, Jin-Woo’s heartbeat began to slowly increase. Then through the closed door he heard his mother’s voice:

-Jin Na?

Can you wake your brother?

Right. His younger sister, Jin Na, was very fond of sleeping, as was the case for a growing girl of her age. But, oddly enough, in the morning she always got up early. And almost every time her mother asked her to go and wake her brother like that.

-Good!

After realizing that something of his childhood, which he dreamed of reliving, was again played out so clearly before a wide grin spread across his eyes, Jin Woo’s face. * clk

-Braaaatiiiik…

-before his sister managed to fully open the door, he slowly got out of bed. -Uh?

When you woke up?

-the little sister was surprised. She stared with bulging eyes at the already raised Jin-Woo, and he smiled broadly at her in return. Jin Na stood in front of him, not yet losing friends because of the monsters. Jin-Woo got out of bed and walked past his sister, heading into the living room.

-Son?

Are you up already?

-Mom heard his steps, finished cooking breakfast and looked around. Starting today, he would never again see her struggling to escape from the clutches of Eternal Sleep disease, from which no one could wake up. But the most joyful sight he really wanted to see again was… Jin-Woo heard the sound of turning over a newspaper and quickly looked towards the dining table. His father, quietly reading the newspaper while waiting for breakfast, felt his gaze and looked up. At the moment when their eyes met, Jin-Woo felt a wave of breathtaking feelings.

-Father… He whispered unnoticed even to himself. after a nightmare?

Little Jin-Woo seemed desperate to hold back his tears, so the alarmed Song Il Hwan quickly got up from his chair and went to his son:

-Son?

What’s the matter?

His dad stood right in front of him. He still clearly remembered the sensation when his father crumbled like dust in his arms. So this moment felt like a waking dream. But it was not a dream. No, it was a reality that he needed to protect at all costs. His eyes were already filled with tears of joy, but his gaze soon shone with firm determination. Both parents studied his expression with an excited look. And Jin Woo grinned involuntarily. “I guess I saw a nightmare,” the boy said. Indeed. His nightmare is over. All the horrors are over!

His younger sister, his healthy mother, and his father, who did not die, were all here. Jin-Woo was given another chance to do it right. And he vowed not to let this chance slip through his fingers. Now he will rewrite his future, and no one will stop him. His eyes shone brightly, and his resolve became even stronger. Jin Woo felt so easy on his soul. It seemed to him that only a couple of days had passed. But in fact, a week has already passed… The hunter still has not been able to catch the right moment to enter the space between the dimensions. He propped his chin on his chin and looked distractedly somewhere through the classroom window. Ber suddenly spoke to him from the shadows:

-Oh my king… “Yes, I know.” Of course, he knew. He remembered that the Rulers were still hunting for this land. And that they were preparing to place the giant Gate directly in the blue sky above his head. But these last few days felt like a vacation for him. Of course, after all, he only recently finished a major battle. A little longer… Was it not permissible for him to fully enjoy these peaceful times even a little more?

Especially as a reward for his hard work. ……. As long as he spent his time worrying about this and that, the long-awaited sound filled the classroom. * ding-ding ding-dong A bell announcing the end of lessons was noisily heard from the speakers. All the children before that seemed to slowly weaken. But now their faces were quickened. Like everyone else, Jin Woo also perked up. Even if there was a young man of twenty-four inside, no, not even twenty-five, he looked like a child only fourteen years old or so. Farewell to the class teacher quickly ended and turned into an inspired, elated atmosphere. But soon the students wearing hedgehog hairstyles quickly surrounded Jin Woo:

-Hey, Jin Woo!

-You’re going to an Internet cafe today, right?

The hunter looked at the hot faces of the boys and grinned a little before nodding.

-Ohhh yeah!

-Hey Hey!

Jin Woo is playing for our team today!

-What?

What are you talking about?

!

He played for your team yesterday.

-But then we took Jon Shik too, you remember. And he’s the worst player here.

-Ahhh, okay. We will take Yon Shik and Min Po at the same time, so Jin Woo is for us.

-Let’s throw off!

-I agree!

Somewhere around that time, middle school students classes of the country have seen a boom in the genre of real-time strategies. Jin Woo’s astounding reaction and observation was more than enough to open a whole new world for these children. For high school boys, higher video game skills meant you were bound to be the most popular child in school. Almost every child tried his best to join the Jin Woo team. Playing rock-paper-scissors meant winning in three rounds, but soon grew into five rounds. At the same time, schoolgirls, who were clearly not interested in matters related to video games, were staring at the boys. They competed intensely for the right to possess Jin Woo. The girls looked at them as hopeless idiots, and left the classroom. Also, somewhere around the end of the classroom there was a boy who continued to glance towards this crowd, belatedly collecting his bag. He liked playing video games like everyone else. But he could not make friends. Such children could only look enviously at the other guys who were going to groups like this. Jin-Woo smiled quietly to himself. He began to notice things that he did not know about as a child. Is it from the fact that now he was an adult?

Or did it happen because of his perception, which exceeded all human norms?

Even in this cramped class, so many emotions were in the air that it was hard to imagine. They collided with each other, like atoms, and created their own world. At the same time…

-Wow!

-not at all embarrassed, the children who were on the team with Jin Woo exclaimed loudly. The guy snapped his tongue to himself. “That’s why the girls look at you like that…”

-he thought. The winners of the “rock-paper-scissors” massacre left the sad losers and gathered around the hunter again:

-Okay, let’s go, Jin Woo!

But before you go, he pointed to the end of the class:

-Hey, I want to take him to the team.

-Huh?

All the guys turned their heads in the indicated direction. But there stood only that lonely boy, silently collecting his bag. He flinched in surprise, noticing that everyone was looking at him. His eyes widened in panic.

-Uh…?

Me?

He asked stuttering. “Yeah, you,” Jin Woo answered. At that moment, he noticed multiple traces of heavy thought on the boy’s face. He just grinned again and asked:

-What’s the matter?

You don’t want?

-X-I want…

-a shy but happy smile appeared on the boy’s face. Seeing that his attempt was successful, Jin-Woo took his bag and said:

-Okay, let’s go. The boy quickly picked up his own and nodded:

-Y-yes!

Jin Woo again grinned quite a bit. A bit more. Just a little bit. “If these moments with which I live my life do not harm anyone, then let me enjoy them for at least one day. Let me stay a little longer… ” Jin Woo’s steps when he left the classroom with his friends were easy and fun, but at the same time incomparably difficult. The sun that touched the mountains behind the school, has already painted the sky in amber colors. Jin-Woo stopped for a moment and looked at the sky above him. Friends called to him:

-Hey, Jin Woo?

What are you doing?

-At this rate, our places in the Internet cafe will occupy!

“Well, guys!

Hurry and hurry… ” ” Yes, yes, I’m coming, “and Jin-Woo caught up with his friends, who were one step ahead. They were full of enthusiastic voices chatting noisily about their great victories, which would soon go down in history. Jin-Woo did not really need to engage in conversations in order to feel their excitement and hear the amplified beating of young hearts. And so… Jin-Woo walked along these streets with friends whom he met again after what seemed like an eternity. Above them shone the sky the color of pure copper. He walked with a wide smile that did not leave his face.
