Chapter 275 (1/2)

“Gasp. Gasp. Sigh...”

“Please take your time. I will support you. Hey, bring me a stretcher.”

I couldn’t refuse them. Right now, my entire body had lost its energy. Sweat was dripping down my back as I saw Mido coming to my side with an anxious face. The other team members looked the same.

“Hiing. Grandfather, are you okay?”

“Yes. Don’t worry. Sigh.”

I slowly exhaled. Fortunately, the match against Brazil ended with my victory. There had only been two fights left and it didn’t take long to finish. The problem was that I transformed into Mudur and ran wild without logging out.

...Damn Mudur. I couldn’t control Mudur. The uncontrollable Mudur smashed all over the map and raged like an unquenchable flame. I couldn’t forget the indescribable sense of anger and insanity that filled my body. I would have to be careful in the future.

Fortunately, Mudur couldn’t come out any more today. There wouldn’t be another revival like before. I remembered the message I had seen before I logged out.

[The transformation is released after the duration is over.]

[Bloody Orc Transformation is only available once in 24 hours.]

[Time remaining until the next transformation is 24:00:00.]

[Current assimilation rate with Mudur: 5%.]

[An increase in assimilation will increase the duration.]

The assimilation rate probably increased the more I transformed into Mudur.

“Now, let’s do it on the count of three. One, two, three—!”

Thus, I left on a stretcher. Reporters gathered like bees from all directions to take photos. I was annoyed and borrowed a towel to cover my eyes.

An hour later, at the treatment room in Union Square...

Fortunately, there were no abnormalities in the test results. It was just light exhaustion. There was a system called ‘doctor stop’ in the World Competition. If the doctor judged I couldn’t play, then I might not be able to participate. In my heart, I was worried about what to do if I couldn’t play in the semifinals. Fortunately, it wasn’t to that extent.

“Wow, Grandfather transformed from that time—”

“Do you feel my heart beating faster?”

“Groan. It was really heated up.”

Hahahaha. Kekekeke.

Right now, I was very tired. There was around half of the IV drip stuck in my arm left. I was sick so why were these people talking so loudly in front of me.

Aish.

“Shut up, these guys!”

There was a moment of silence as everyone’s eyes focused. Then they started making noise again as if nothing had happened. The veins on my forehead bulged. I wanted to smoke, but it wasn’t possible. Therefore, I wondered what I was doing.

As it happened, Ma Seokdu was next to him. An old bear and a young bear—the two bears took up a lot of space in the room, so it was frustrating. By the way, why did this guy come? It was also with Sujeong.

“Tsk. I can’t relax because it is so noisy.”

”Everyone was worried because you were carried out on a stretcher. They wanted to play rock paper scissors to decide who would guard your side. It was so tiring that I told them all to come.”

This jerk was telling me that he caused this situation. In any case, he was truly good at getting things done, this damn bastard. Sigh. My hapless fate.

“Seokdu, what are you doing here? it is also with Sujeong.”

“Ah, this? She kept bothering me to come and watch the event. Hyung-nim, I’m starving. Puhuhu. Doesn’t this hospital serve food?”

Kim Sujeong slapped Ma Seokdu’s back from where she was standing next to him. Yes, it was a slap. Ma Seokdu frowned slightly before turning his arms back to scratch his back. However, his forearm was too thick to reach. He was truly a bear.

“Pfft. Sorry. I'll scratch it.”

I didn’t know what was so good, but Kim Sujeong was actually scratching his back with a smile. Wait a minute. Sujeong asked him to come and watch it with her? Was she interested in Seokdu? Wait. It couldn’t be like this...

My plan to connect her with my second son Jeonghyun was gradually changing. What the hell was this brat doing that he didn’t know what was going on with Sujeong? if they met like this...

“Grandfather—! I brought the family with me.”

Mido had left to pick up the family and now she returned to the room. It was only now that I could breathe a bit. I was grateful for the presence of my granddaughter who brought oxygen just by being in the same space.

“Father!”

“Father!”

“Grandfather!”

Kanghyun was the first one to shout. Next was my second son Jeonghyun. This brat!

“W-Why are you looking at me like that? Why... are you angry?”

I stared at Choi Jeonghyun while suppressing words that couldn’t come out of my mouth. My granddaughter, Seohui, was in his arms so I had to bear it. The small eyes looked down at me and my heart seemed to melt.

“Gampa!” Seohui came down from Choi Jeonghyun’s arms, approached the bed, and reached out to hug me. I hugged Seohui with no hesitation. That Jeonghyun was lucky. I put up with him because of Seohui.

“Gampa, are you ok?”

“Yes. Hahaha. I’m fine.”

“Don’t hut, Gampa.”

I felt emotional for no reason. Tears welled up at the thought that I wanted to live a long and healthy life in order to see Seohui grow up. I wanted to see Seohui get married and then become a great-grandfather.

“Seohui, you should call him Grandpa.” Choi Jeonghyun poured cold water on the good atmosphere. This person must’ve lost his wits.
