Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 1)

Chapter 26: Item (1)

Some time had passed after I told Hyunsung about Park Hyaeyoung's death.

Of course, I didn't say things like "Jung Jinho is suspicious," or "That guy is a murderer" to him.

It was up to Kim Hyunsung himself and not me, who had to arrive at the conclusion that 'Jinho was the one who killed Park Hyaeyoung.

I didn't need to convince him, and I didn't even have to persuade him. It was enough to be consistent with my attitude for now and let Jinho fall into a trap.

'That will be good for all of us.'

Hyunsung was a reasonable partner who would rather doubt Jinho than to doubt me in such circumstances. The mischief he would inevitably do in the future would also help Kim Hyunsung reach a logical conclusion about him.

As time passed, Kim Hyunsung often spent time alone, constantly observing and checking.

He watched Jung Jinho carefully and sometimes even observed me quietly. I thought I knew what he was thinking as he did so.

Whenever he wore a cold expression, I thought Kim Hyunsung was thinking about how to kill Jung Jinho.

'He is the enemy of the future, the calculating killer, the murderer who killed Park Hyaeyoung.'

There was no single reason for Kim Hyunsung to remove Jinho from the shelter immediately. No matter how much Buddha-level compassion he had for others, he definitely wanted to get rid of what would surely become an enemy in the future.

But how could he get rid of this problem?

From Kim Hyunsung's point of view, he would love to deal with him as quickly as possible, but he still had many other things to worry about. It seemed difficult to find the right opportunity, and there were many things to consider before that.

For example, one of them was the problem of proceeding down the dungeon.

"How about we go down together to lower levels?"

"Together... What do you mean?"

"Yes, Hyunsung-ssi. Jung Hayan is about to finish her training as a Wizard... Jinho has also joined us so I think there will be enough people to lead an attack. Seokwoo seems to have found a class too... I would also want to advance a little more slowly and cautiously, but I think the time has come to make a choice as food is running out. Our purpose to train others was to attack the monsters on the lower levels."

"Well..."

"We can't always live here. Even if I'm anxious, I think we should try."

It looked like his head hurt a little when I proposed this.

We had no choice but to attack the dungeon with a party that was destined to be divided up in the future. In fact, I had to lay down the scene before him, and it was for Kim Hyunsung to decide.

He had to decide whether he was confident enough to break through the lower levels of the dungeon with them and then also take responsibility for what happened afterward.

If Kim Hyunsung himself was confident, the situation would eventually turn out in their favor no matter what happened.

'We could lead an attack on the dungeon along with the death of the murderer who had killed Park Hyaeyoung.'

In other words, we would be able to use Jung Jinho up to the marrow of his bones.

If he was going to be killed anyway, it was better to use him to the fullest.

"It's impossible to go hunting again with the new people who joined recently. We don't know when something like what happened with Park Hyaeyoung would happen again... Yet I also don't think it's a bad idea to go out once and scavenge the area for supplies, rather than to just wait like this. Both food and drinking water are scarce right now. If we choose to settle down without venturing further, we will all eventually die."
