Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 383

Episode 383:

A huge pond and garden.

An overly large tree stood on the outer wall, giving the mansion a strange atmosphere even in the afternoon when the landscaping was bright.

Sabak. Sabak.

Adela stepped on the dry grass and looked around the Shin-O family. There were statues of lions made of marble and statues of the ancestors of the Shin-O family at the entrance where the stairs were placed, but there was no human life in the mansion.

‘I’m sure he’ll be here…’

Entering the mansion, Adela slowly followed Shin Yuseong’s trail. However, what came out of what appeared to be Shin Yoo-seong’s room was a travel case containing simple belongings and a few clothes.

No matter where he searched the mansion, Shin Yoo-seong was nowhere to be found.

‘A place you might be…’

Adela pondered. If you can’t find it even after searching the entire mansion, where is Shin Yoo-seong on this vast site?

It is difficult to pin point and predict the place as it is wide. However, if you think of Shin Yoo-seong’s usual behavior, the story is different.

Shin Yuseong always went into the woods alone to practice whenever he was deep in thought. Even at dawn, there were times when I left the dormitory alone and practiced in the forest.

Jeop-Chop-

Adela felt the wet grass and soil through her shoes as she entered the woods.

Is this a premonition?

Adela found a rock among the many trees in the forest.

Zabak-Chuck-

Adela walked slowly. The only thing that resonates in the silent forest is the sound of your own footsteps. There is no popularity scale. Even so, Adela spoke as if it were predestined.

“Why are you… here alone?”

But there was no answer from behind the rock. Adela came a little closer. She couldn’t see her face because she was holding her knees and lowered her head, but Adela knew that it was Shin Yoo-seong.

“I understand. …There are times when I don’t even want to talk to anyone.”

Adela carefully sat in front of Shin Yuseong. What is the best way to open the heart of a child who is only 5 years old?

If it were Velvet, he would give him snacks or read a fairy tale, but his opponent was Shin Yoo-seong.

However, unlike the long agony, Adela’s answer was simple.

“Oh you! There is a… worm on your shoulder.”

When Adela, who had a serious tone, was surprised, Shin Yoo-seong looked back at his shoulder in surprise.

Fuh-

but that was Adela’s joke. Adela’s index finger gently stabbed Shin Yoo-seong’s cheek.

“You were tricked by a cow…”

How did you use the skill you had been beaten by Velvet so usefully? Satisfied Adela hoo-huh and let’s laugh. Shin Yooseong laughed along without even knowing himself.

This proves that Shin Yoo-seong’s heart has opened up a little bit.

“Did you feel like talking to me?”

Adela asked cautiously. Shin Yooseong nodded with a bitter face that was not suitable for a child.

“My family is like that… I don’t need anything like me because it’s a defective product…”

Adela had a lot of mixed feelings as she heard Yoosung Shin’s voice creeping in.

“So… were you sad?”

“Yeah, it was sad.”

Perhaps thanks to her experience with Velvet, Adela approached Shin Yoo-seong like a friend.

“Why were you sad?”

“Because I feel like I’ve let everyone down… and…”

“And?”

Little children are pure. He was not good at hiding his emotions, and the story, which broke out once, continued smoothly.

“Now… I can’t see it.”

“Did you like your family?”

“huh.”

“Even if I abandoned you?”

Shin Yoo-seong nodded and moved her head vigorously, and Adela was speechless for a while.

“…okay.”

Adela realized it belatedly.

The existence of Shin Yoo-seong that he knows is not a product of nature that was born by chance. Whether the experience was bad or good, the memories belonged to Shin Yoo-seong and made Shin Yoo-seong what it is today.

“…Are you afraid to leave home and be alone?”

Shin Yoo-seong nodded vigorously at Adela’s precise words, as if he had read his mind.

It was unimaginable to the serious 17-year-old Shin Yoo-seong, but if you look only at his childhood, he resembled Velvet without fail.

Adela smiled and placed an ice flower on her palm.

“I see. Being alone is like winter. It must be bitter cold for a child like you.”

Was it thanks to reading the fairy tale to Velvet? Through cold air, Adela created the image of Shin Yoo-seong, a young Shin who fights against the harsh winter like a scene from a fairy tale, and also created the image of a bad witch. Young Shin Yoo-seong was amazed, and as his eyes widened, he could tell who Velvet resembled.

Why did he think that the way to please Shin Yoo-seong and Velvet was different?

I’m sure they’ll be happy if you give them a cake, and they’ll prick up their ears if you read them a fairy tale.

“But winter is not forever. …Someday spring will come. Other precious people will fill your side.”

The cold air resembling Shin Yuseong overcame the witch and endured the winter, and hurrahed on the palm of his hand.

The happy faces of Shin Yoo-seong were filled with familiar party members.

“When that day comes… you will remember this day. You will become a warm person who can sympathize with the cold of others and extend your hand.”

The fairy tale is over.

Shin Yoo-seong had the key to that hope to see if he could recall his memories. If they couldn’t recall, Adela and Shin Yoo-seong could not leave this world forever.

The only thing left is to swim in an endless dream and lose yourself.

“A warm person…”

Shin Yuseong just smiled at Adela. Is it an illusion? The moment when Shin Yoo-seong’s appearance was overlapped.

Hwa-ak –

young Shin Yoo-seong said as he hugged Adela.

“Your skill at reading children’s books has improved a lot… Adela?”

Adela looked at the man in front of her.

As evidence of his memory recovery, Shin Yoo-seong hugged Adela with his original body, not a child.

The moment shortly after Laplace relayed the story to Sumire’s colleagues.

– That’s unbelievable speed. One of your companions has already found the memory fragment.

Laplace announced the unexpected victory news.

“yes? Hasn’t it been a few seconds since Laplace-sama used telepathy?”

– It’s only time in reality, time is free in dreams. I don’t move with absolute rules. Of course, even taking that into account, it’s fast…

Sumire looked around again at Laplace’s explanation. One of the planets that had taken its place in space in the shape of the universe had indeed disappeared.

“Then I must hurry!”

– Wait, kid. Don’t be quick to choose. Among the 5 memories, there may be a planet that only you can solve.

The five planets that fragmented Shin Yoo-seong’s memory have different experiences. Some memories could not be resolved without the presence of each person’s personality or experience.

“Then… are you saying that Laplace-sama can know the contents in advance without choosing a memory?”

– okay. If you know the principles of how dreams work and analyze the power of dreams based on those principles, it’s not that difficult.

Can I say that this is humility? Laplace spoke of the knowledge that humanity has yet to reach, as if it were not a big deal.

“…the principle of dreaming?”

– Dreams are a process that occurs the moment the human brain reprocesses memories. Hmm, in terms of food, it can be said to be the digestive process.

However, Laplace’s knowledge was too difficult for even Sumire, a model student, to take the written test.

“Ah yes… digestion process!”

– It’s easy to decide what to eat… but that doesn’t mean you control the entire digestive process.

As Sumire seldom got his way, Laplace, who came up with an accurate analogy, said with a disgusted expression.

– It is impossible for even Morgan to coordinate the movements of the digestive organs one by one. It’s a lot of work and it’s disgusting…

“Ah…”

Morgan can decide on a theme and menu, but Shin Yoo-seong left his hands the moment it was broken into pieces.

– That’s why Morgan made a basis. That is the foundation of the five senses and emotions…

With this much information, it was not difficult to distinguish Shin Yoo-seong’s memories through the remaining options.

– It is said that among the remaining 4 Shin Yoo-sung, there will be a Shin Yoo-sung that only you, Sumire, can save. So look for it once.

Sumire fell into deep thought for a while based on the memories of Shin Yuseong that Laplace had told her about.

As Laplace said, what is the memory of Shin Yuseong that only he can save, and what is the seed of hope that only he can give?

Of course there were differences.

Because Sumire was the only party member who visited the Shin-Oh family with Shin Yoo-seong. But it occurred to me that that might not be all.

More importantly, the pleasure that only he can give Shin Yoo-seong.

“…I’ve decided.”

Sumire, who made a decision with a solemn expression, looked at Laplace and nodded.

Chew-!

After making her choice, Sumire stretched out her hand. I felt as if my body was being sucked into the gravity of the planet.

Blame it!

The place where Sumire landed was none other than a night of torrential rain, and an orphanage in sight of a teacher who had come to meet her in a black car.

“This is…”

Sumire made her choice.

He believed that there was a divine meteor that only he could save.
