An unfa came into view Every time Seo Jun-Ho blinked, his hazy vision became clearer
“Ah, you’re awake” The Frost Queen’s face suddenly popped up Even now, she still looked like a doll Seo Jun-Ho stared at her for a second, then closed his eyes
“How many days has it been?” he asked
“Seven days I thought you were dead”
“I just woke up, and you’re already being rude…” he muttered He noticed how soft the mattress felt under his body “This doesn’t seem like a cot in a tent… Where are we?”
“We are in a city called Denver You once dined here with Skaya, did you not?”
“”
So they had safely made it out of Blackfield Relieved, Seo Jun-Ho tried to sit up

“Gasp! He has overdosed on poison How is he still alive?”
“Wait, he’s not just a typical patient? You’re telling reat is his willpower? And how is he still alive?
“”
Seo Jun-Ho looked tired But that soon passed, and he slowly approached the question he had been afraid to ask
“What about Gong Ju-Ha?”
“That fox” The Frost Queen let out a light sigh and shook her head “They say that she is still in a co her, so it should only be a matter of time until she awakens”
“Hm” Itstabbed through the chest by Janabi’s poisonous stinger
‘At least the treatloomy, but the Frost Queen flicked his forehead
“Ow!” Seo Jun-Ho couldn’t even move his ar?”
“What do you think? It is punishment for your recklessness” The Frost Queen sulked “I told you, did I not? Moon Eye is too hard on your body to use right now”
“I know But I had no other choice”

“To be honest, I had my doubts even when I used it I wasn’t sure if it would be able to kill him,” Jun-Ho admitted
Moon Eye was a technique that required hi it, he would have to rest for at least a feeeks because of the burden it put on his body
‘And not only that…’
Seo Jun-Ho closed his eyes and inspected his insides The first thing he noticed was his ic circuits “Tch”
Usually, they were so well-ht now, they looked very worn out and had scars all over the place This was the consequence of forcefully suic power
“You are human You are not the main character of a comic or movie You will not receive a power-up at a decisive moment, and you won’t be able to defeat your enemies without consequences,” the Frost Queen said
“I know I knew that when I did it”

“Well, you will realize once you see her, so I will not tell you for now You will be shocked”
Just as the Frost Queen finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and two people came in
“W-woah! Y-you’re awake! How are you awake?!” the priest cried out The Saintess calmed him down
“Calm down I said that he should wake up around today,” she said
