Chapter 494: The Twist Of The Twist Of The Twist (2)

‘Shit…’

My face had now become wrinkled. This proved to be a very unexpected situation.

‘Shit. Shit. Shit!’

However, I couldn’t reveal what I was feeling. I had to pretend to be as calm as possible, after all. I nodded at the sudden news slowly, but I was already burning inside. It was hard to understand what the hell was going on.

One thing was for sure. Jung Hayan had just shown off new magic, and it struck with a good hit.

However, when I remembered the new magic, it was so ridiculous that I kept laughing internally.

‘Teleportation?’

I had seen all kinds of magic on the continent, but I had never seen that kind of magic.

In the first place, it made no sense to jump out of space and move to another place.

Even in the modern era, where all kinds of science and technology could do a wide array of miracles, it was a distant future story, and the continent was no different.

If I had to express it, it was a dream that one couldn’t reach yet. As I also had a wizard-related class, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to be dumbfounded.

If I had to take my class as an example, it was like completing the Philosopher’s Stone.

‘I know she’s a genius, but…’

It turned out she was a genius of another level. I felt the Jung Hayan Coin, which had slowly been decreasing in value, soaring once more.

‘It was good of me to have endured for so long…’

Of course, the unknown magic wasn’t without limits.

I didn’t know what happened after that, but at least it wasn’t perfect yet. There were two circumstances. The first was that even though they had that magic, they had still come to the vicinity of Amera before activating the magic.

‘It seems that there is still a distance limit.’

It was also bothersome that the entire unit had a face as if risking their lives. That was the second one.

‘Is there a penalty of getting lost or being torn apart if she fails? It can be assumed that what was possible only in theory was used immediately without going through the testing phase.’

If things had gone wrong, they could have died.

Of course, Kim Hyunsung might’ve known that she could use that kind of magic since he knew a lot about Jung Hayan.

However, from the perspective of the rest of the party, it was no different than volunteering to be lab rats for an experiment. Considering the amount of magic power needed in order to activate the magic, it wasn’t in a level that could be used multiple times for practice.

It seemed that her limit was that she could only activate it once with the energy she accumulated during the time I was held captive. Of course…

‘There will be no magic power to use to return.’

Only then did I begin to see the whole war situation.

Some of the troops except the main unit invading Limur’s nest were bait. And some of the troops were…

‘Securing a retreat.’

Except for bases 41, 42, and 43 that Donovan smashed, the bases the rest of the troops were attacking would serve as emergency retreat routes.

Even more so, considering that it would be possible for them to keep the Donovan troops who would return later in check.

It seemed like it had been random, but the elaborately woven tactics like a spider’s web were in a position to arouse admiration. It looked bold and extreme, but they used the troops in a way that secured several steps ahead.

‘It must be Jihye’s work.’

In fact, if it were Lee Jihye, she would have thought of a safer method, but there was a high probability that Cha Hee-ra’s touch had influenced the plan a lot.

When I thought of those using their potentials to the fullest, I felt more afraid than surprised.

Of course, I had to be grateful upon finding out that they valued me that much.

However, considering my current situation, I didn’t feel very happy at all.

Even in the control room, cold silence had begun to flow.

I couldn’t stand the eyes of the demons looking at me as if asking me what the hell was happening.

-This…

“It’s not perfect, but it’s all in the calculations.”

-Is that true?

“Everyone. If you are agitated, you won’t be able to get the whole picture of the situation. I thought it was unlikely, in the calculation. We can cope with it. Of course, I also have a solution.”

-I see. As expected, Lee Kiyoung is an external advisor. Really, the human race always seems to startle us. I thought there was something special as she is the human who summoned Belial here but to see teleportation magic… I’ve heard that some humans from other dimensions use it, but I didn’t really think that I would see it with my own eyes.

-They are great, but the outside advisor is greater. Do you mean you already had these calculated?

‘Of course not, you bastard.’

Even the most visionary genius of the century wouldn’t expect such a situation. I would predict if I had some sign or double track.

It was hard for me, who belonged to the relatively ordinary side, to be able to predict such a crazy situation. I didn’t think Kim Hyunsung would run into the stage in that way and that he would abandon the Federation.

I couldn’t even imagine that Jung Hayan would succeed with the trial teleportation magic.

I hoped they ended up being dropped in the wrong place because of an error in the coordinates, but they were perfectly inside the nest where our members were located.

It felt painful to have our intentionally leaked information used to set goals.

-What should we do?

‘Don’t ask me, you bastard. I don’t know.’

-You must have subtle means. Aren’t you the external advisor? Haha.

‘There is nothing like that. No. Fuck.’

At that moment, I could only think of basic actions.

“I think it would be better to call the troops and delay the march as much as possible. There is a little distance before they reach Limur, so please call the troops nearby first. And. The one who is the closest…”

‘It’s Ballitos.’

“I think you can tell him to come to the nest, too. Please tell him that we will use the food warehouse afterward.”

-Yes. I will do as directed.

“Can we increase the number of spirits a bit?”

-Yes. It’ll probably be possible.

“Then please do that.”

-Will do that.

The expedition was just starting to understand the situation. I could see them sending the rangers as the standard troops and doing simple maintenance.

Of course, everyone was biting their lips whilst sporting a determined expression. What was a little more noticeable was that nobody looked good.

There were even people who looked nauseous.

As it was magic that wasn’t perfect yet, it was normal to have bad aftereffects. Of course, Jung Hayan stood out the most.

Once again, her hair had turned white, and she seemed to have difficulties walking properly.

‘Gosh…’

I was a bit heartbroken to see her looking like that.

That emotion only heightened when I saw Park Deokgu patting Jung Hayan’s shoulder.

It was the first time I had seen her looking so sorrowful while clenching her fists and nodding her success.

All of them approached her and gave her brief comments of encouragement, but I noticed Sun Hee-young didn’t approach Jung Hayan.

In the meantime, the expedition had already started preparing to enter. I didn’t even think it would take a long time for them to do that.

‘That’s not surprising at all.’

-We’re going straight into it right away.

-You mean right away?

-Yes. Although we have arrived, we’re not in a situation where we can relax and set up camp. By now, our enemies have likely noticed that we have come this way. After rescuing those who are being used to maintain the summons and Vice Guild Master Lee Kiyoung, who should be somewhere around here, we will leave this place right away.

-Is it impossible to know their exact location? No, before that, would Lee Kiyoung really be here…

-Of course, it isn’t possible to know exactly from the information the rangers have brought. Sigh… the owner of this nest might know better. I think he’ll be in the back or the bottom of the room where the demon named Limur stays, but he may be in a completely different place, so some troops have to set up a search team and start investigating the vicinity. Meanwhile, the main force must focus on attacking the nest. We’ll move as I briefed you before.

-Yes, sir.

-According to the briefing, it is.

-Roger that.

After the short conversation, the troops rushed inside in no time.

‘Fuck. What should I do? Can Limur survive? Is this really possible?’

To be honest, I couldn’t make a decision. Overall, the main force was exhausted, and Limur wasn’t the only one in Limur’s nest.

When analyzing the power objectively, of course, I thought that the power at the nest was higher.

‘It’s because Jung Hayan can no longer fight.’

If I thought about it that way, there was still a chance to win.

It was far from the original plan, but modifying it was inevitable anyway.

The Battle of Limur’s Nest had to be remembered as humanity’s dire victory.

That was the place where the Continental Union, which had grown slowly through all kinds of hardships and trials, had to arrive after a fierce battle with numerous wounds. Originally, the Continental Union would barely be able to the nest, but there was no way that phase could still be enforced.

If the event ended with the nest being attacked and finished according to their original plan…

‘Everything will be totally ruined.’

It was like investing an astronomical amount of money on a movie and failing to earn 500,000 when the amount needed to break-even was 10 million.

It meant that it wouldn’t be able to fill half of the expected volume of the Continental Union’s negative feelings, such as the great feelings of despair and fear of demons. At the moment, the event in which the main unit would fail and be forced to escape after attacking the nest was the most ideal.

later could be solved after putting out the immediate fire.

‘It can’t end like this.’

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Donovan was taking care of 500,000 audiences.

If the project were to collapse, the worst-case scenario would be the public opinion of hardliners being strengthened in the 27th Corps. Even from Belial’s point of view, there would be an inevitable situation where Lee Kiyoung would have to assume responsibility.

From the continent’s perspective, a more nightmarish situation than that would not be easy to find.

‘For now, I have to believe.’

To some extent, my thoughts were organized. I was in an environment where I had been driven to a corner, but recovery was possible. Turning the happiness circuit like that,

After informing Limur of the rough situation, I looked at the situation while stroking my chin.

-Shit! Damn. How dare you hurt me? My hair that he praised!

-Where are you?

-Ahhhhhhhhh! Die!!! Dieeee!!!

First Blood, Double Kill, Penta Kill, and Kim Hyunsung, who didn’t stop at just being the ruler of the battlefield, was beating up Limur. I couldn’t help but run out of the control room.

‘Did you do any doping? If she dies, I die too, motherfuckers.’

That was my circumstances.

I couldn’t just stand still anymore. I had to struggle with the situation that was getting worse and worse.

‘Shit. What do I do? Fuck…’

Even though I felt my breath rising to the end of my chin, I kept thinking of a solution in my mind. At that moment, the only answer I had was to make the main force retreat.

I didn’t think I could go and do anything, but at least I might be able to withstand it until Ballitos, and the other troops eventually came back.

‘What about hostage play? Can I use this?’

It was then that a fairly appropriate method passed through my head.

“Huh?”

It was an idea good enough to stop me from running wildly.

“Puhhehehhahaha.”

It felt a bit forced, but I felt like we had prepared enough for the plan.

“Whew. Why didn’t I think of this? I should’ve gone with this from the beginning.”

I couldn’t understand why I had only thought about becoming a victim.

I was anxious because it seemed to be a common cliché, but the royal road was still the royal road.

The movie’s story would have to be revised drastically, but no cliché worked better than what I had in mind.

‘That’s right…’
