I Will Save the World and Retire Chapter 168

Recruitment Fraud(1)

“But, bro.”

“why?”

“Hey.”

“okay.”

Even after waiting for a while, there is no answer. When I slowly raise my head, I see a 10-year-old child fiddling with a tablet PC.

This morning, all the children from Demonstration High School left the pension. It was before the holiday break began in earnest, but when has a school other than this school ever cared about such things? Only Han Eun-young resisted until the very end, saying she couldn’t go home, but she was dragged by her brother’s hands with an expression on her face that she didn’t want to live.

I said I don’t know where I am, but I know where I am. With not just one or two but nearly ten children gone, the spacious pension is quiet. When they were around, it was annoying because there were a lot of things to worry about, but now that they aren’t there, it’s a bit… I also feel empty.

Moreover, Uirok also became quiet for some reason.

Instead of being kind to children, he was so vicious that he sometimes pretended to kick them when he felt like it, but how funny would it be for a non-awakened 10-year-old to behave like that to prospective hunters who were being manipulated by Hong Seok-young? The kids found Ui-rok very cute. From my perspective, Woo I-rok was also following the kids better than expected. He may be feeling a little sad about being left alone.

I wasn’t that cute, but he doesn’t know either. Honestly, I have to see him and I as different people now.

“Do you want to go on a trip too?”

The children did not leave quietly. Basically, compared to kids his age, he was docile and obedient, but that doesn’t mean he was quiet.

‘Teacher Kim used that magic, what on earth happened?!’

In particular, Oh Hyun-wook resisted. On the topic of piglets… .

This is why I get tired when there is someone with a loud voice. Children with weak spirits are easily swayed. Encouraged by the piglet’s voice, even the children who had been quiet began to protest. Because Yoo Hye-eun had treated my and Han Tae-kyung’s wounds, it was difficult for her to ignore it and say it was no big deal.

Of course, it’s okay to say that the kids don’t know anything… .

I know too. Saying things like that only encourages rebellion.

Still, Kang Tae-woo just rolled his eyes. Just from hearing about the situation from Yoo Hye-eun, it seemed like he had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

Kang Tae-woo still had his sister’s bracelet on his wrist. He confirmed that the children that Hope disposed of were alive, but he could not bring them to Korea, so he could not tell Tae-woo Kang. He relays the news to Kang Tae-woo for no reason, but if it reaches Ark’s ears, the real children will die at that time.

‘Don’t mention it’s a fire drill!!’

The piglet struggled.

Please note that this is not my idea. I heard that one of Daseon’s hunters was taken aback by the children’s complaints and suddenly responded that way.

It was a hassle to listen to the little pig, and I wanted to get rid of the kids before Uirok woke up, so I roughly told the truth.

‘A criminal organization with a grudge against the principal attacked to seek revenge.’

It’s not really a wrong explanation, is it?

‘That’s why it was so noisy. It will be quiet for a while, so don’t worry. It’s Chuseok, so get some rest.’

The piglet and his gang left the pension with uncertain expressions.

After getting out of the morning’s work, I saw Uirok in front of me.

“Shall we go?”

“no… .”

Ui-rok shook his head.

“It’s not like that.”

Even though he said no, looking at his strangely calm appearance, I wondered if he should have sent Uirok away with the kids. I don’t know if it was other kids, but Kang Tae-woo would have been able to handle that guy.

… I didn’t know that I would feel so comfortable with No. 3, who had approached me so openly and suspiciously at first. At that time, I was looking for a way to take Kang Tae-woo to the Ark.

Looking back now, even though Hong Seok-young was here, my thoughts were short-lived. If the Ark was just a criminal organization as Hong Seok-young initially thought, it would have been the end of the story if they found a clue and eliminated it. Hong Seok-young must have planned that too. But the ark… It was a much bigger place than Hong Seok-young and I knew, and it was just a crazy place. He almost broke down without even knowing what was wrong.

Also, if you think about it that way, Hope was at the orphanage… Doing the damn thing didn’t go too well for us. Because we were able to sever the link between Kang Tae-woo and the Ark and protect him from our side. And that reconnected me with Hope… After all, there is no way to know what a person’s life is like.

“What if it’s not like that?”

“… … .”

Ui-rok made a sullen expression.

Sandra Gamble will be here soon. Hope is still in Australia and has said he has no intention of leaving the country until the Gamble situation is resolved.

As long as we have Gamble’s identity, Hope can’t move as she pleases. As he said, if you want to protect someone so precious that you would betray your own people.

However, we still don’t know the purpose of the Ark or why Michel built it or joined it.

Ui-rok’s face doesn’t seem to relax either.

As expected, I had to get him out of here… .

But I shook my head.

Semblum tried to kidnap that guy. I don’t know the reason yet. But Semblum won’t be the only one under Noah Michel, and someone else may attack.

Whether it’s porridge or rice, I feel at ease when I have Uirok in front of me. It is better to be in a place where I can know the situation right away than to have something happen out of my reach.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Even after waiting for a long time, Uirok’s mouth did not open. I thought I would say something when I felt like it, so I shrugged my shoulders and went back to the material I was looking at.

It was a bound booklet given by Lee Mi-seon. It wasn’t that thick.

I lay down on the sofa and flipped through the papers. Each piece of paper is full of runes.

The release date has not been set yet, but the content has been completed. It was the second rune to be announced following the last rune announced under the name of Daseon. Of course… .

I stopped turning the pages.

Of course, Noah Michel’s magic shield rune is also included.

Can I just announce this as is?

I discussed it with Hong Seok-young several times, but I still couldn’t make a decision.

In the original timeline, it is still a few years away from Noah Michel revealing the magic shield rune. But that only refers to the timing of the release. It is unknown when Michelle actually created the screening rune. If I announce it too hastily, it might attract Michel’s attention.

However, if you look at it that way, the first runes released also had Michel’s runes mixed in. Chaemin Kim said that Michel had reacted to the runes in the wizard community. Among them, were there any runes that Michel had already made?

Hong Seok-young told me that I think too much, but how could I not think when faced with an issue like this?

Rustling.

I raised my head after glaring at the thin booklet in my hand. Uirok, who had been lost in thought with his eyebrows narrowed, was now looking at his tablet PC. For some reason, he didn’t like the sight of him sprawled out on the other side of the sofa.

… That damn cat.

My brother, I think his head is going to explode because of work.

In the end, I covered the material I was looking at. Uirok narrowed his eyebrows as if he didn’t like something.

You wouldn’t suddenly say you want a cat toy, right?

After worrying for a moment about a future that never happened, fortunately, a story that made Ui-rok hesitate came to mind.

I was impressed.

“Is that guy bothering you?”

“… … .”

Uirok, who had been squirming, stopped moving. Was it this?

I sighed.

“My brother told me. “What should I do if I don’t like it?”

“I don’t like it… say?”

“okay.”

“I didn’t hate it that much… .”

It would be nice to hear Hong Seok-young, so I’ll move on.

I remember declaring quite solemnly that I was ready to become that child’s older brother. This can happen if people are naturally emotional.

But if I think about it calmly, it’s all a matter of my feelings. I was already that arrogant kid’s older brother. Just because he has become my younger brother again, nothing changes in my life, nor does my behavior change.

Still a little more… It might be better to act like a normal brother. Originally, I became a little crooked after my older brother disappeared around that age. The orphanage he stayed in after being rescued by his father was no help.

The only sibling relationship I can refer to is Yoo Ji-eun. Yoo Ji-eun was an older sister, so it shouldn’t be substituted one-to-one for her relationship with her younger brother… .

I stretched out my leg and touched Uirok. Mini-me, who was lost in thought about something, twisted her body as if she was annoyed.

no wonder… .

hmm.

I moved my legs louder.

thud!

“ouch!”

Ui-rok, who fell off the sofa, stood up and glared at me.

“what!”

“Why didn’t you say anything after calling your brother earlier?”

“Profit… .”

Ui-rok’s face was distorted like an ugly doll.

I finally figured out why Yoo Ji-eun started arguing so much every time she saw me.

Ui-rok was so intoxicated that he attacked me. Even though it hasn’t awakened yet, it moves quite quickly. It’s a long way from awakening, but how will I handle this then?

I left it until I got tired of it. Ui-rok, realizing that he was no match for me, quickly gave up. After all, it’s me. I know my fractions well.

Instead of sitting on the sofa, Ui-rok sat cross-legged on the floor.

“That man keeps telling me to be his son.”

I answered in as casual a voice as possible.

“Brother, tell you not to do it?”

“But the man said that since my brother is his son, I am also his son. Really?”

Annoying… .

“Don’t worry about me, just do whatever you want.”

“Whatever I want to do?”

“If you want to be that man’s son, you can do it.”

Then I have no intention of stopping you either.

Uirok frowned and tilted his head to the side.

“Then what about your brother?”

“me?”

“Are you also your son?”

“well… . “I don’t know about that.”

“They say brothers must have the same father.”

“Don’t go anywhere and say things like that in this day and age. “There are various types of families in the world.”

I paused for a moment.

“Your father may be different… “That’s your family’s situation.”

“Like my brother and I are family?”

“We’re related by blood, so that’s a different story… .”

“Uhm… .”

“So, tell him you don’t like it? Even if you don’t do it, if you say you don’t like it, he won’t do it anymore.”

“… … .”

Surprisingly, no words of dislike came out of Uirok’s mouth.

… How on earth did Hong Seok-young roast and boil him? How many days has it been?

Right now, Wooirok hasn’t been to orphanage, so the level of difficulty is lower than mine. No, but still… .

The saying, “If you don’t like something, say no,” applies equally to the opposite case. If it’s good, just say it’s good. Then Woo I-rok becomes Hong Seok-yeong’s son.

what… That’s a good title too.

I was about to say something more, but stopped. This was a matter between Hong Seok-young and Woo I-rok, so I didn’t want to get involved. There is already enough work to do.

“… … .”

I looked at my phone, which started vibrating. Lee Mi-seon’s name is stamped on it.

This is how words become seeds. I said I had a lot of work to do, but the work increased again.

“yes. Is there a problem?”

-Woo teacher! Come out!

Lee Mi-seon said as soon as she answered the phone.

-I brought Gamble.
