Kim had several habits. One of them was to check his left wrist as soon as he opened his eyes.

It was still true.

'Ah.'

Kim Tae-hoon first checked his left-hand wrist rather than the fact that he was in the passenger seat of a car when he opened his eyes.

Of course, his eyes always came in with a watch on his wrist, and when he saw the watch, Kim Tae-hoon was surprised.

'Why?'

He saw a smartwatch.

'Why?'

Kim Tae-hoon did not use a smartwatch.

The features of a smartwatch, with its GPS function, could not go three days without charging, had the poor waterproof function, had weak durability, and even had the possibility of being hacked, were cuffs for Kim Tae-hoon.

But now the smartwatch was around Kim Tae-hoon's wrist.

It was hard to understand.

But what was really hard to understand was that Kim Tae-hoon's body did not listen to him.

'My body …'

He tried to move his arms and hands to touch the smartwatch, but his body did not listen to him.

Rather, his body moved of its own. Instead of moving his arms, he was looking at the man approaching him through the car window that went down.

”Boss.” The man who approached him handed a paper cup to him, and he got in the car. ”It's coffee.”

There was lukewarm coffee in the paper cup.

”The only thing left was mix coffee, and of course, I took out the sugar.”

Instead of the bright black hue, the mixed coffee had a murky brown light.

It was also a coffee that Kim Tae-hoon really hated. Coffee was his only hobby, so mixed coffee was an insult to his hobby.

However, the mixed coffee did not come into Kim Tae-hoon's eyes. The face of the man who handed him the coffee did.

He was a man with a wounded face. The three slits across his face, in particular, were obviously done by the claws of a terrible monster.

It was fortunate that his face was not torn right off. On the contrary, Kim Tae-hoon was still able to recognize the owner of the face.

'Jang Sung-hoon?'

Jang Sung-hoon was the man in front of him. Jang Sung-hoon, who was older than Kim Tae-hoon knew.

'Jang Sung-hoon!'

Of course, Kim Tae-hoon tried to call his name, but he was not allowed to either.

'Ah.'

At this moment, Kim Tae-hoon had to look at everything he did as an observer.

”You've made your wish known to have a cup of coffee before you die. Isn't mixed coffee, coffee too?” Jang Sung-hoon spit out and smiled lightly.

At that moment, a huge wind, an intense force that shook the world, passed through Kim Tae-hoon's car and Jang Song-hoon.

Jang Sung-hoon turned his head around with a frightened look. ”Damn it, it's already here.”

'What's come?'

At that moment, he talked. ”Jang Sung Hoon. You've had a hard time.”

”Boss.”

”You go alone to Gyeongju.”

”Boss!”

”I want you to meet with Commander-in-Chief Lim Hyun-joon there and deliver my message.”

The door of the car he was riding in opened up.

In the meantime, Kim Tae-hoon, looking at himself as an observer, organized what he saw and heard carefully.

'Gyeongju? Alone? Commander-in-Chief Lim Hyun-joon?'

When the door opened, Jang Sung-hoon took a step back, and Kim Tae-hoon got out of the car.

At the same time, the trunk was opened by itself. Various weapons came out of the open trunk like birds, and they began to hover around Kim Tae-hoon.

Spear, knife, arrow, headstone…

Kim Tae-hoon looked at each of the weapons and finally said to Jang Sung-hoon, ”If I fail this hunt, abandon Korea.”

”Shit, this is ridiculous! Boss, you don't have to die! You have no reason to die! You always told me! You fought to survive! Because of those damn bastards…”

OOOO!

At that moment, he heard an eerie cry that could not be compared to any animal in the world.

”Kuck!” The cry took the focus from Jang Sung-hoon's eyes at once. He fell down like a broken doll. Kim Tae-hoon brought him up and sat him in the driver's seat after supporting him.

When the car door was closed, the car started to run on its own.

At the same time, a huge shadow fell over Kim Tae-hoon's head.

A wind strong enough to pull out the roots of a giant tree whipped around Kim Tae-hoon. Turning into the gale, he looked up at the owner of the shadow with his eyes widening.

Kim Tae-hoon, who was watching himself, also looked at the monster.

It was the dragon who had passed by that night.

A huge dragon, with glowing blue eyes filled with anger!

Clatter!

Ahn Sun-mi confirmed Kim Tae-hoon's pupil condition, and she got up from her seat by turning off the small flash she held in her hand.

Behind her were Bang Hyun-wook, Jang Sung-hoon, and Kim Soo-ji, waiting anxiously for Ahn Sun-mi to talk.

Ahn Sun-mi said with a firm expression, ”He is sleeping.”

The three of them cocked their heads, rather than be surprised by the answer that came out.

”Yes?”

”As I said, Kim Tae-hoon is sleeping, and he is sleeping very deeply.”

”So he is... sleeping now?” Bang Hyun-wook made a ridiculous expression even though he said the words himself. It was not a situation to spit out cute, sweet words.

”I'm glad, though, I thought he was going to die.” However, at the word 'sleep', Bang Hyun-wook briefly sighed relief.

It was not a strange reaction. Sleep was not a negative word for the public.
