Chapter 202: Two Stars to Seven Stars (9) (2/2)
Since Evelyn couldn’t enjoy her life properly when she was alive, it was natural that she would be excited Of course, the current situation made it iirl Moreover, Evelyn planned to return to the Abyss at a later point in tiht ood and fair Since I’one… Of course, the queen still has those two left, but I’m still worried]
Since Evelyn was revived as a huer tied to the Abyss, but she planned to ain and finish her business with Huk Cheong-Ra she could immediately do She didn’t have the ability to do so, and her first priority was to develop sufficient strength with her previous experiences and current abilities as the foundation Therefore, for the tiuise of a Babylon Church priestess, who had been caught by the Demon Empire and forced to live as a slave, but was coincidentally rescued by the expedition team Evelyn’s presence would be welcomed with open arms by humanity
Unlike the other natives on Liber, Evelyn would probably earn quite the reputation as soon as she began working as the only priest with the ability to heal in this world Evelyn probably was also well aware of this fact
Chi-Woo had thought Evelyn would be willing to help them to a certain extent, but he hadn’t expected her to continue following him Then Chi-Woo realized that he still hadn’t heard about Evelyn’s condition
‘ht was?’</eot curious and was about to look at her user information with his Spirit Eye when—
“No” Evelyn held a hand up “How dare you try to peek into a lady’s secret, you pervert” Tilting her head to press her face against her palave Chi-Woo a smile
Chi-Woo was startled, “How did you know?”
“Haha This is how scary a woman’s intuition is You should be careful” Evelyn flicked her index finger and moved between Hawa and Chi-Woo “Anyway, don’t we ht and said, “There’s the hero who’s going to save the world” She pointed at Chi-Woo and then pointed at herself “The saintess who helps the hero”
Then she hesitated a little when pointing at Hawa “And…uh…the childhood friend…who gets jealous of the relationshi+p between the hero and the saintess, and after going through a lot of heartache, she sacrifices for the hero in a time of crisis?”
“…”
“Why, you don’t like it? Do you want to be the knight instead?”
“Please don’t talk to h so that Evelyn could clearly hear her
Finally, the expedition see, they would be stepping through the capital’s gates by tonight Since they heard this at sunset, they just needed to ’s words, Chi-Woo’s device rang like crazy after passing a certain point Notifications rang in his ear one after another
Chi-Woo didn’t even need to look at it; he knew they were , Noel’s condition hadn’t ihtest Evelyn took care of her every day and poured divinity into her body, but she showed no signs of i Evelyn could do was to prevent Noel’s condition fro Chi-Woo was already concerned about various rew heavier when he saw his brother’s es like ‘Where are you?’, ‘Come back’, and other ones to the effect
“What are you thinking so deeply about?” While Chi-Woo alking, deep in thought, someone suddenly asked a question It was Apoline
Chi-Woo was taken aback that she would suddenly strike up a conversation with hi”
Despite his denial, Apoline could roughly guess his concerns based on his downcast expression She said, “Why are you bla yourself so much? She chose to join this expedition by herself”
“…”
“You didn’t expect so like this to happen? Did you perhaps decide to participate without even this , but Apoline could only say that because she didn’t know the full circu the expedition tealoom remained on Chi-Woo’s face She said, “Don’t worry too much That person will probably have a way to recover her” She was referring to Chi-Hyun by ‘that person’
Apoline continued, “She’s the only person he allowed to follow hiuarantee it…but I think he’ll probably check up on her once”
“…Check up on her?”
“Probably If he thinks she’s worth it Then, considering his character, won’t he try to recover her at all costs?”
Chi-Woo was perplexed; it see two separate conversions Of course, he knew he shouldn’t hope for it, but he thought his brother would definitely do his best to treat Noel However, Apoline seeht not try to cure Noel if he thought she was not worth it
Chi-Woo said, “Why do you think…she’s Ms Noel after all”
“Ha” Apoline let out a short breath from her nose “It’s obvious what you’ll think if I say this, but…” She looked Chi-Woo up and down and continued, “I don’t acknowledge him as a hero”
“What?”
“Ah, of course I adnificant achieveend for his achieve” Apoline tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear “But he’s not a hu about? Chi-Woo asked, “Are you saying that he’s not human?”
“If he’s human, he would have never been able to do what he’s done”
“What do you mean?”
Apoline clearly explained, “He’s extremely calculative andany oals He’s the type of person who doesn’t try to minimize sacrifice and instead calculates the sacrifice people have to ht” A bitter remark ensued “I…can’t accept a person like that as a hero”
After speaking, Apoline looked at Chi-Woo as if she was curious about the latter's reaction It was because whenever she said sory and shouted at her to not insult Chi-Hyun However, Chi-Woo siht not be like that”
“That guy?” Apoline sine thathis life to save someone He’s the type of person ould use even his family as a mere chess piece if it’s necessary”
“…”
“He really…doesn’t seem human”
A moment of silence Chi-Woo wanted to refute her state he could say because he didn’t know anything about his brother as a hero
“But it’s surprising” When Chi-Woo reain like she found his behavior unexpected “I thought you were one of his fans as well because of your connection with that woman”
It was understandable that Apoline would assume he was on Chi-Hyun’s side because of his relationshi+p with Noel On the other hand, his relationshi+p with his brother ht be completely shattered when he returned He was certain that a second sibling ould soon follow He had said everything he wanted to say in the first round, but in the second round, he had a huge disadvantage, starting with the justification of his departure When Chi-Woo rehten the atmosphere
Then she asked, “By the way, do you still have no plans to tell me?”
“?”
“Your name”
Chi-Woo beca” He finally spit it out with the feeling of defeat
“…”
“…”
A short silence fell between them Apoline narrowed her eyes and asked, “…What did you say?”
“Chichibbong” Chi-Woo repeated clearly
“You really…ah, forget it” Apoline sighed and clicked her tongue “Don’t tell ret it later on” She smirked and left
‘What did she mean by that?’ Chi-Woo stared intently as Apoline disappeared and suddenly realized that their surroundings had grown dark Chi-Woo took a deep breath, turned on his device, and wrote a e that he was almost at the capital with details about Noel’s condition
While he riting and sending the ’s shout froe structure covered in darkness slowly eed over the horizon—it was the capital of the former Salem
