Chapter 743: To The End (2)

‘Our Hyejin really has gritted her teeth. Wow, why didn’t I think of this?’
I might not have considered it at all because it was too unrealistic. Whether Jung Hayan could make that possible was also one of the important issues.
‘Why would it be impossible?’
Jung Hayan already had a history of dropping gravity all over the north. Even though her methods were different, it didn’t change that she was a wizard beyond common sense.
Of course, just because a wizard graduated from the Department of Gravity Dropping Magic doesn’t necessarily mean that they were in the Department of Teleportation Magic as well. Still, I didn’t need to make such a distinction for Jung Hayan, who held a part of Han Sora’s body in her hand.
Regardless of her major, Jung Hayan was fluent in a large discipline called magic.
It might’ve been quicker to ask her what was impossible than asking what was possible for her. If she had enough time to research, our Archmage would always produce results.
She wasn’t still while she was recovering her magic power. She was also gritting her teeth.
I was a bit puzzled about how she was able to communicate with Cho Hyejin, but the fact that the two had reached an agreement also didn’t feel awkward at all.
Cho Hyejin wouldn’t have been in her senses in the first place. It wasn’t Jung Hayan that planned this crazy operation.
‘It’s really surprising.’
The Cho Hyejin I knew was cautious and stability-oriented. In fact, Cho Hyejin would never gamble with this kind of operation.
Even when playing chess, that tendency stood out.
Cho Hyejin would only throw the dice if she were forced into an all-or-nothing situation.
‘… as a final option.’
The current situation might’ve seemed the worst for her. From her perspective, she would’ve thought she had no choice but to make the decision.
She might’ve also embodied the plan with manager Kim Mi-young, the strategic planning office, and executives of the committee headquarters…
It felt great enough just by acting. As such, the possibility of their plan’s success was high.
It was probably what gave the plausibility to such a ridiculous tactic.
“She was waiting for me to know this.”
The purpose wasn’t just Lee Kiyoung’s rescue. Lee Kiyoung was also a part that would make the entire plan successful. He had been defined as an essential element to it.
It was fascinating that Cho Hyejin threw the dice in gambling that was dangerous enough to cause everything to collapse if even one thing went wrong.
“What? What did you notice? Or did you already know it?”
“Deokgu.”
“Yes?”
“Didn’t Hyejin tell you to give me something? Something sealed or something like a letter.”
“Oh… I forgot about that. Ah!”
‘You bastard, really. Fuck, what were you going to do if I didn’t notice this?’
“No, but Hyejin told me not to open this.”
“She told you to give it to me.”
“She told me not to open it.”
“Why would she give it to me if I can’t open it? Quickly.”
“She told me not to open it no matter the circumstances. I can’t forget her face at that time when she requested it sincerely.”
“No, fuck. Enough with that, and just give it to me quickly!”
“O-Okay…”
I could see him rummaging in his sleeves.
What came out of his pocket was nothing but a Goddess’s Hand Mirror.
‘Fuck, it’s going exactly as I thought it would be.’
It was like the feeling of being annoyed a little while ago was fading away. My nervous and anxious feelings were being diluted.
Seeing that just being able to understand how things were going made me feel better, I had to admit that Jihye was right. It wasn’t that serious, but it was obvious that I had such a tendency.
The problem was that the divinity in the temple was interfering with the propagation of the Goddess’s Hand Mirror. I could immediately deduce what parts I needed next.
“These bastards are out of their minds.”
‘Are you trying to get things done without a control tower?’
It wasn’t completely blocked. If it was close, it might be possible to connect, but I thought that the Goddess’s Hand Mirror wouldn’t connect when the recipient is beyond a certain distance, and the parts that other troops would bring would be to build a control tower.
‘This changes things.’
Lee Kiyoung had eyes of light that could look far away and had a voice of light that could send a message to anyone, after all.
However, I thought that what Cho Hyejin wanted would not be that kind of control tower.
It was literally a device to facilitate communication between armies and troops. Perhaps what made that possible…
‘Max employee, no, son, you were here?’
The Crack Museum Level 5 Administrator Max was in one of the scattered units in the temple.
“Deokgu.”
“Why are you calling? It seems like there is still a long time left to go…”
“Which way did Max go?”
“…”
“Which way did Max go?”
“How do you know that Max is here?”
“I just do. Did he make a new dummy and send it? I don’t think he sent the main body. Who is with him? Hee-ra? Or the Black Swan? Or is it a guild from the Republic side? The United Kingdom?”
“I-I don’t remember well, but it was probably the Friendship Clan, no, the Friendship Guild.”
“What?”
“The Friendship Guild.”
“That… Where is that guild attached to, fuck?”
“Didn’t you know them too?”
“How can I remember each tiny guild?”
“You can’t remember?”
“What?”
“The people who were with you when you went to experience the Crack Museum after you dressed as a woman.”
‘I didn’t dress as a woman. Fuck. I actually transformed as one.’
“…”
“They’re all from Lindel. Lee Cheol-woo, Kook Minji, and other people that I can’t remember the names of. Anyway…”
“…”
“You really don’t remember?”
“No. I remember.”
However, my face became wrinkled.
‘Fuck. What the fuck. Friendship Guild?’
It was because I remembered the people who had no future in my head. It wasn’t because of my personality.
‘Are they even worth allowing to participate in this operation?’
It was so ridiculous to say that he was with the guild that was made up of only those who were full of themselves in the continent that it left me speechless.
Even if it was a dummy, it was ironic to entrust the precious son of others to them.
‘Are you insane? Fuck, are you actually insane? They’re complete scum. They have no future.’
In a situation where I even thought it would be nice if Park Deokgu were wrong, I turned the telescope in a hurry, but the faces of those who were already blurry in my memories didn’t come into my eyes.
“It is a guild that has achieved tremendous growth in recent years. Originally, it was a clan, but I was surprised to see them like there had been changes in their heart. I don’t know if it was to participate in this operation, but it felt like their skills had grown tremendously. That’s why Hyejin also left the operation to them without saying anything. Well, I don’t know what they’re doing there, but perhaps…”
I had to send a message to Raphael. Just in case.
I kept moving and looking around the temple for a long time. Finally, familiar human figures began to come into view. I couldn’t tell who the others were, but my youngest child, who was between them, surely caught my eyes. His face was stiff. I saw a small, fragile body holding the hand of an unknown guy.
When I checked him with my Mind’s Eyes, I could immediately tell who he was.
‘Lee Cheol-woo? That’s right. Fuck.’
It felt like the lost memories are coming back slowly. I hope it wasn’t them, but it looked like it really was the party that went to the Crack Museum with me.
I cursed and slowly checked them again.
“Huh?”
I could see that they had changed a bit, no, a lot.
‘What, these bastards… why do you have such good items?’
The growth of their basic stats was at a level enough to make me nod. No, honestly, their growth was so tremendous that they couldn’t have achieved it.
However, what caught my eye more than that was their sleek appearance.
‘What. Fuck, why are they so good? How much is all that?’
Contrary to my judgment that the clan would be disbanded, they seemed to have become more closely united.
It wasn’t just Lee Cheol-woo and Kook Minji. Those who went to the Crack Museum together at the time were also covered with high-quality items, and the bodies of the new guild members were also shining.
One of them was even painted in gold from head to toe.
‘What… Did these bastards win the lottery?’
If it weren’t a lottery, their appearance couldn’t be explained. Their whole bodies were decked out with high-grade items.
As the clan had a large number of free funds, they would’ve recruited other famous adventurers, and the clan might have grown into a guild based on their overwhelming financial power.
Not surprisingly, guild members who appeared to be of a higher level than the guild’s founding members were visible.
Even among them, the heroes of the first round that Kim Hyunsung and I were secretly supporting were included. There might be people who came for money, but the heroes of the first round were those who didn’t act only for money.
I quickly realized that the Friendship Guild’s external reputation wasn’t as bad as I thought.
The way they fought against the angels was also considerable. There was a determination that they could never lose in the eyes of those who were moving organically. It was as if they were correcting my thoughts that they would collapse soon.
‘Wow, they worked out like that.’
Hadn’t someone said it?
If one lived in the world nicely, they would receive an equal reward someday.
‘That snowball rolled like that?’
It could’ve been meaningless behavior. Who knew that the affection that I gave to a small party in the past would come back like that?
I gave a warm touch to a party going through hardships. They grew beyond imagination and became in charge of such a big responsibility. They were indispensable as one of the continent’s proud adventurers.
I almost cried emotionally, but I thought I shouldn’t shed tears even for the guys who came here.
‘Do not cry. Lee Kiyoung. It’s rude to the heroes who have come this far.’
-Cheol-woo Oppa!
-I know, Minji. Are you okay, Max? Around here…
-We need to go in a little more. I can’t find the exact location yet. It seems like it should be somewhere around here, but…
‘Our son pretends to be strict.’
It would be better to create a quest immediately and send him the location. I thought I knew roughly in which direction he was going.
As expected, it didn’t take long for my son’s face to brighten with a worried expression.
-It’s my father.
‘Yes. You should call me dad.’
The heroes who were moving in a hurry came into the first control room instantly, and immediately after I saw Max installing a communication tower inside the temple, I was able to access the Goddess’s Hand Mirror.
At that moment, a familiar voice began to be heard as if she had been waiting.
-Welcome back, Vice Guild Master. This is manager Kim Miyoung.
Other voices could be heard too.
-Kiyoung?
