Theatrical Regression Life - Chapter 490
Episode 490
Meanwhile, Ha Seong-yoon.
“….”
I had a lot of thoughts of my own.
There was also a plan.
‘…Once my stamina has recovered and I feel like it’s a good time to run away, escaping from Han River Park will be my top priority. For that to happen, the role of Munsan-gun, as well as myself, is important. Grandma corrects me to the point where I can’t believe she’s that age, but although I don’t know her stamina, her strength is extremely low. I have no strength and my bones are weak. So, I escaped by doing my best to protect the grandmother as much as possible…’ I
was so proud of Hong Gyeong-jun’s words that I refuted them first, but if you think about it, Ha Seong-yoon was actually a combatant.
However, it would not be easy for Ha Seong-yoon to escape this demon cave while protecting the old man. Therefore, the Munsan Army also had to play an active role as a combatant.
‘Before escaping like that, I should hear the geography of the park from Hong Gyeong-jun. I know roughly, but this place is clearly lacking in power. If you take a wrong turn and stray even a little from your destination or end up in the building where the final boss is located, you will incur a huge loss. If you learn the route to minimize the route as much as possible and then escape, there won’t be any problems…’ The
destination they need to catch is a large park in front of the Oseong headquarters. It was not that there was no worry about the survivors trapped in the aquarium, but the most important thing was that Munsan and Azalea had to reach a safe place.
‘There is a high probability that there will be many deaths in the aquarium anyway. And Lee Jae-heon is a crazy patient who cannot understand the death of even one of the survivors, so he will eventually return. In that case, rather than dragging this group of people to the aquarium, it is important to go to the park and settle in first. In terms of the game, you have to proceed step by step, like saving once, to prevent problems that may arise later.’
Because it was the weekend, the survivors were scattered. Didn’t they even say that Kwon Yeon-hee is in Namyangju? Since I had learned something from Lee Jae-heon, I would not die right away, but one of the key factors would be how long Kwon Yeon-hee would be able to survive in the future.
‘We have no way to find out even if Kwon Yeon-hee dies. When a close survivor dies, other survivors also feel it, but that only applies when they are in the same place or area… When Yeonhee died in Namyangju, the reason she couldn’t answer the phone was because she lost her cell phone, or because she was really dead. ‘I don’t even know if it is.’
However, walking to Namyangju would also be complicated. That should be left as a last resort, so the survivors here should join the aquarium group and kill the final boss before Kwon Yeon-hee’s golden time is lost.
‘Is it ultimately a race against time?’
The conclusion was simple. All they had to do was quickly escape the underworld before Kwon Yeon-hee’s life or death became unknown.
“…Phew….”
The problem was that the situation was not that easy.
“I’m sorry at such an important time.”
“Why should I even apologize for something like this? “Doctors can get sick too, so don’t worry too much about it.”
“I should have come back while taking care of my physical strength…”
Azalea tried to offer words of comfort, but they were not very effective.
The mountain that Ha Seong-yoon visited with his colleagues this time was known to be quite rugged in this area. Because it was untouched by humans and not a very famous or visited mountain, there were no dangerous monsters. There was no trap or anything.
However, when he reached the top, it was Ha Seong-yoon who came to the other side of the world.
‘I spent too much stamina coming down from the top.’
So, did you just use up your stamina? It wasn’t like that either.
It was a rocky mountain, not dirt, and the slope was steep, so Ha Seong-yoon fell 23 times and fell 6 times as far as he can remember. My body and mind were exhausted from having to avoid, encounter, and shake off monsters all the way to Hangang Park in that condition.
Prince Munsan spoke to Ha Seong-yoon, who was slightly drooping.
“No, you wanted to come quickly because you were worried about us. In fact, thanks to your quick arrival, we were able to complete the walls and houses to hide in, and we also avoided almost getting caught by other monsters. “I was worried about whether I would be able to stay with Grandma Azalea because I was unreliable in many ways, but I was really relieved when Teacher Ha Seong-yoon came.”
“Haha… Now that you say that, I feel much more at ease.”
“It’s not just empty words, it’s true. They always care about our safety and take care of our health behind the scenes. I can’t tell you how fortunate I am to have someone I can rely on. You helped me so much, but I don’t think you should be pessimistic by saying that I wasn’t able to manage my physical strength. “It would be more correct to say that you rightfully expended your physical strength for us.”
“…okay.”
Ha Seong-yoon, with a faint smile, slowly nodded.
“thank you. “Thanks to you, I feel like the burden on my mind has been eased.”
“I’m glad if my shortcomings made you feel at least a little more comfortable.”
“I also feel at ease because Mr. Munsan-gun and Grandma Dal-lae are with me.”
Even as he said that, Ha Seong-yoon thought to himself.
‘This is definitely not the norm…’
Munsan-gun has an unrealistically good side, but there were times when it felt bizarre.
‘Apart from that, it’s not a lie to say that I felt at ease.’
Ha Seong-yoon quickly turned his gaze from Munsan-gun to Azalea.
“….”
“….”
She nodded slightly and expressed sympathy for Ha Seong-yoon. Azalea also thought that Munsan-gun was unique, but it also meant that she was receiving great psychological help.
Ha Seong-yoon thought about that.
‘…Can this also be seen as a manifestation of Munsan-gun’s ability due to his mental power?’
Apart from the regression that affected the entire party, some of the survivors in the other side of the world displayed their own abilities.
Kang Min-ah’s overall abilities increased. Garam Yoon has immunity to and control over fire. High school siblings engage in long-distance communication. The regenerative ability that Lee Jae-heon had in the past was also part of it.
‘If you look at Minah, who was said to be an ordinary office worker, having apparitions in the beginning, it seems like they don’t just appear in that order of insanity. It seems like everyone has their own triggers….’
In Kang Min-ah’s case, it was responsibility. For Yoon Garam, it was the joy and guilt of fire, and for Park Dayoung and Park Dahoon, it seemed like the affection between siblings.
As Lee Jae-heon’s ability has disappeared, it is impossible to know what triggered him, but considering the above cases, Munsan-gun must have had something as well.
‘It’s a bit strange to think that I felt at ease simply because of Munsan-gun’s speaking skills. Even if I had heard that kind of ideal comfort in real life, I wouldn’t have been very impressed. However, if not only I but also the mentally strong Jin Dal-rae were greatly disturbed by Munsan-gun’s comfort… Isn’t that something that can be called a kind of ability?’
I thought so, but when I looked back, Munsan’s eyes were plain black.
“….”
It meant that he was holding on to reason.
“…Maybe I said something too presumptuous?”
Ha Seong-yoon immediately rolled his eyes at Munsan-gun, who asked with a neat yet anxious face.
“It can’t be. I’m just grateful that it was of great help. Rather, I am sorry that I looked at Mr. Munsan-gun rudely for a long time.”
“No, there’s nothing to be sorry about just because I looked at you for a little while. “I’m glad you didn’t feel bad.”
“Thank you for saying that.”
Azalea’s brows furrowed slightly as the conversation seemed like something out of a book on ethics and morality. Either way, they seemed to think it was disgusting. However, it was very characteristic of Azalea not to hit her at all.
‘You are such a neglectful person.’
He never criticized the survivors’ actions or plans or gave them advice.
Azalea in the other world was looking at the survivors moving from a distance with a dry gaze that did not seem to be watching them.
‘…but there is a lot of affection. I can tell from the fact that I used my abilities once before.’
The ability of azalea is a kind of folk remedy. It was an absurd ability to heal absurd injuries using absurd materials, and even though Azalea seemed reluctant about her ability, she used that power to help someone.
Contrary to his cold-blooded appearance, he loves the weak and young and silently does his best in everything he can. This was the reason why Ha Seong-yoon did not completely dislike azalea’s folk remedies.
“….”
No, in fact, I still don’t like it….
It was like the feeling of a child who witnessed a classmate with whom he had a bad relationship rise to the top with better grades than me.
‘How can you have such childish sentiments about something that should be welcomed if it helps the patient? ‘When will I be able to become a proper doctor in this world?’
Still, it was clear that I didn’t hate azalea. She was a great team member, colleague and council member. Munsan-gun, who appears to be a wealthy man of the century, and Azalea, a man of opposite sex like iron blood, seemed like a good combination.
‘They are both respectable people. Regardless of my likes or dislikes.’
Although he used the derogatory title ‘hogu’, Munsan-gun’s goodness was highly valued. Although Azalea is positioned as a bystander, having a colleague who can remain so calm is a great help mentally. Although we ended up forming a team with an unexpected combination, it wasn’t a bad situation.
Moreover, this is a hidden world where mental power is the main factor. No one knew how the spirit of Munsan, who had an insane level of goodness, and Jin Dal-rae, who was extremely calm, would manifest.
“…Then is it okay for me to leave the park as soon as I recover?”
In response to Ha Seong-yoon’s question, the two nodded their heads calmly.
“Yes, I will prepare like that.”
“I like it too.”
Although the team was formed haphazardly, Ha Seong-yoon thought it was not a bad combination.
‘Even though there are many shortcomings in terms of combat power… I wonder if there is a healthier combination than this if we are as careful as possible. There are two people who can be treated in Munsan-gun, which constantly improves the mental strength of team members. ‘As long as you don’t encounter strong monsters, there won’t be any major problems.’
Of course, if Ha Seong-yoon does his part.
“…Haha….”
I hope no one dies in the meantime.

Meanwhile, Kwon Yeon-hee.
“This… can I eat this…?”
“yes…? “Isn’t that a poisonous mushroom?”
“In the other world, even if it’s fancy, it can still be edible…!”
“Uh oh… then…?”
And doctor Seo In-young.
The two cowards were faltering in front of the bright red mushroom.
