《Disclaimer: This is purely from my fantasy, might not align with the actual plot, or a little OOC.》

This chapter is a bit long since I don't know where to cut. The word count almost like 2 chapter in 1.

".... Hyung-nim, this--"

"What the hell—"

I shudder at the scene lay upon me. I couldn't even imagine how one person can cause these. Is Hyunsung really that strong, or is it other party's doing..

"But whoever did this, they have saved us"

"Ah you're right. I don't even want to imagine how it's gonna be if this hoard of monster attacked us while Hyung-nim is unconcious..."

"I-I-I will p-protect oppa... P-protect oppa..." I heard Hayan's mumble as usual. But I'm not sure if even Hayan can stop these number of monsters by herself.

'That stubborn guy...'

He's so stubborn even though what he's thinking is really out in the open. I understand now. He must have planned to continue to protect us from afar until the tutorial is over, then he might completely cut contact with us immediately.

'I can't let that happen'

I need to break his determination before the time's up. I don't care how our relationship in the previous timeline unless we're enemies. And it's pretty obvious that we're not, I'm even confident that we have a close relationship. Something must have happen that made him don't want to be related to me again in this timeline, but I'm sure he still cares about me. It's really obvious at this point.

'He really is not talented in scheming'

I can see through it all from his action alone.

But. That previous timeline is that, and this timeline is this. I need to convince him that I can still be related to him and what he's worried about won't happen.

'And that means I have to know what he's worried about'

How do I do this... First, I really need to have proper conversation with him. Do I force him? No... It's not about whether or not I have to do it, but whether or not I can do it in the first place.

I stared at the deformed monster corpses. I almost wanted to puke.

Tap. Tap.

Sounds of footsteps reverberate to my ears, snapping me out of my thought.

"Hayan. Deokgu. Hide"

We drowned ourself in the shadow and wait until the sounds coming nearer and nearer.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

It's not just one. ... Maybe two or three people?

"What--!?"

I heard one of them exclaimed at the monster corpses. I peek myself out and saw a scarred-face man with sword and little shield, a man with a bow, and a man with a spear. They look strong just by appearance alone. If not for their exclamation, I might think it's them who has slaughtered these monsters.

I took the time to use Mind's Eye to the Scarred-face who looked like their leader.
