I Login Alone-Chapter 61

Episode 61.

The two walked outside and continued to talk. There were fewer people on the street than in the cafe, so they were drawing less attention.

“Overseas!?”

“Yeah. Our country has been putting down monsters very quickly. You heard about the Chinese restaurant rider, haven’t you?”

“Chinese restaurant rider…”

He immediately realized what she was talking about. Jung Si-woo wanted to roll around the floor in embarrassment because he had such a nickname, but he desperately maintained his poker face so that he wouldn’t get caught.

But Lee Seo-hee was staring at his face.

“What?”

“Nothing.”

What do you mean, Lee Seo-hee was obviously suspicious of Jung Si-woo! Perhaps she contacted him to tell him how to become a player and confirm if he was that player. If not, she could let him become a player in the way she knew, and if he were already a player, the story would be simpler.

“You’re so handsome.”

“You don’t mean that.”

“Really.”

His former lover, Lee Seo-hee, must’ve remembered his appearance while watching Jung Si-woo’s physique and behavior on TV. However, Jung Si-woo was in perfect control of his mana, so she set aside half her doubts the moment she reunited with him.

“Anyway, thanks to him, it’s safe to say that there are few monster habitats in Korea right now. But that isn’t the case for most foreign countries. So, our guild often travels abroad to destroy the monsters that settled on earth…”

The guild led by Lee Seo-hee, the Giant Guild, headed to Tengu Mountain in Otaru, Hokkaido, in Japan just five days ago to wipe out a herd of goblins. The goblin herd was spread throughout Mount Tengu, so several guilds, including the Giant Guild, were dispatched…

“I was the first person to find that place. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to go to the historical sites in Japan.”

There was a very small temple in the middle of the mountain, hidden by countless trees. She, and only a few guild members who were with her, found it. The temple had a guardian who guarded and stood there to monopolize god’s power, and Lee Seo-hee, who succeeded in getting rid of him, heard god’s voice there. “If you follow me, I will give you the power to crush all the monsters.”

“Isn’t that exactly the same situation as when Arthur pulled the Frostmourne?”

“If you go there, you’ll feel the power is real. Our guild members were going to bow one-hundred and eight times in front of the statue.”

“Look, that’s even more suspicious.”

“It’s not like that. This is frustrating.”

Jung Si-woo began to see Lee Seo-hee as a pyramid salesperson. However, given the look in her eyes and the pure mana inside her body, she wasn’t delusional yet.

“Anyway, I confirmed directly with god. I asked if it was possible to turn a person into a player. That’s where I got a positive answer…and I called you right away.”

But she didn’t say that she was offended by the strange woman who answered his phone. This was enough to convey her feelings to Jung Si-woo.

“Let’s say you found it first, and then what? A temple with the power of a god, I don’t think other players will sit still.”

“A barrier.”

Lee Seo-hee’s smiled proudly.

“Even though I became a player quite late compared to others…well, I was able to grow up quickly and become a guild master thanks to my special abilities. I’m not trying to brag, but I’m the world’s best in this field.”

No matter how much he looked at it, she was definitely boasting.

“You’ve hidden the temple, then?”

“Yeah. Even if the most sensitive player to mana, Marina Bissett, comes around, she won’t notice. She’s busy on the other side, so she can’t go there anyway.”

Although he thought that she was good with mana, Marina Bissett wasn’t just a famous player as a shooter and mercenary. Of course, Jung Si-woo’s expression was calm, as he couldn’t reveal he knew her.

“But it’s a hassle since it’s in Japan.”

“We can just fly there anyway?”

Jung Si-woo sighed because this showed how players viewed the world. It was easy for players.

“Even if you’re a player, it’s still illegal to cross the border without permission.”

“Hehe, if you don’t get caught, it’s not a crime. My ability is specialized in concealing and protecting things, so hiding the two of us is nothing.”

“What…”

Jung Si-woo became a little distant when he listened to Lee Seo-hee. He wondered what happened to her. She used to be the most diligent student before. Is this what happened when you became a member of society? This was scary.

“Come on, hold my hand.”

“We’re flying from here to Otaru?”

“Correct.”

“Grunt…”

Lee Seo-hee couldn’t be happier. Soo Ah-rin punched Jung Si-woo’s chest, but it wasn’t like she could book a plane ticket to Hokkaido just because she didn’t want to fly while watching them hold each other’s hands. Jung Si-woo finally shrugged it off and held Lee Seo-hee’s hand. Compared to Lee Seo-hee’s small and fine hands, his hands were three times bigger. Lee Seo-hee giggled.

“You still have big hands.”

“None of your business.”

“Ughhhh.

While Soo Ah-rin was grinning, Lee Seo-hee spread her wings behind her back with a proud smile. The wings of light, which weren’t clearly shaped, shone brilliantly, angles as if they were made up of countless glass crystals.

“…So pretty.”

“That’s a rare type.”

The wings also seemed to have a rare ranking. Jung Si-woo kept the supporters quiet, who were whispering in his arms.

“Then let’s go.”

“Okay. Huh?”

At that moment, Lee Seo-hee pulled him towards her and hugged him. Jung Si-woo was a little embarrassed by the warm and cozy feeling he felt on his back. Lee Seo-hee never used to be this bold! Whether she considered her actions bold, she explained in an urgent tone as if she was making excuses.

“It’s just safer this way.”

“I didn’t say anything.”

“Le, let’s go.”

Lee Seo-hee flew up to the sky. Indeed, it was clear from the speed of the flight that her level was high. He wondered if her flight speed was faster than Yong Se-ha’s. This was pretty amazing, considering that she wasn’t a fighter.

“Once I recover my Mana, I can fly with Hyeong-nim much faster than this!”

“Be quiet.”

The flight speed was so fast that he thought it would be dangerous in many ways. He wished he had explained that to her.

“Hold on tight, Si-woo. It’s dangerous.”

“Okay.”

“She must be determined to seduce you somehow…!”

“I can hear you grinding your teeth from here.”

Of course, his two supporters’ voices couldn’t be heard by her because they were hiding. In Lee Seo-hee’s arms, Jung Si-woo flew a distance of 1,400 kilometers from Seoul, Korea, to Hokkaido. He rode a plane not too long ago, and he was held by Yong Se-ha in a similar flight experience, but flying super long distances in the arms of his ex-girlfriend was unique.

“If you let go of me, I’ll be shark food.”

“Don’t worry. What’s more, you’ll be the person eating the sharks even if you fell into the sea.

If Lee Seo-hee’s purpose was to make Jung Si-woo flutter, she succeeded. Even though he knew that a player’s strength couldn’t be judged by their appearance, Jung Si-woo was worried if Lee Seo-hee’s slender arms would be able to support him.

“Why has your body become so big?”

“I’ve gained muscle.”

“Again?”

On the other hand, Lee Seo-hee’s heart was pounding because of his body. She totally painted herself into a corner! She was trying to seduce him, but instead, she was falling for him. The strength in her hands seemed to loosen up, not because he was heavy, but because her heart was pounding.

“Hooo…whooo…”

And Soo Ah-rin’s heart was pounding when she heard the conversation between the two. It was with a feeling of murder, hatred, and embarrassment. Yong Se-ha waited quietly for the moment of arrival as if no one were there, as the wisest of the four. Flying faster than an airplane, Lee Seo-hee finally arrived at Mount Tengu in Otaru in less than two hours. Jung Si-woo made a sigh of relief upon setting foot on safe ground.

“I don’t want to go through this ever again.”

“You will be flying on your own on the way back. I’m sure of it.”

Lee Seo-hee folded her wings with a very proud voice.

“Trust me. Come on, follow me.”

“But what about your guild members?”

“They told me they’re standing by at the accommodation under the mountain. It would be suspicious if other players found them wandering near the border.”

“Stand by…”

Jung Si-woo made a strange smile. What did Lee Seo-hee say? Didn’t she say that her guild members would bow 108 times in front of the statue? He wondered if they would really be waiting in the accommodation.

“What’s wrong, Si-woo?”

“No, nothing.”

Jung Si-woo wanted his thoughts to be wrong. However, when the main character thought like this in the novel, the incident that he/she was worried about usually happened, so he sighed.

“Huh?”

However, Lee Seo-hee, who was taking the lead in walking along the mountain path, suddenly tilted her head when she saw the temple’s barrier.

“I’m sure I have killed all the monsters near the border.”

“But there is a monster near there?”

“Yeah, maybe the barrier wasn’t complete. But it can’t be…”

Naturally, her feet were getting faster. However, Jung Si-woo’s face was filled with a strangely refreshed smile. Of course, but he was also feeling the barrier, and he could sense that there was a monster near the barrier.

“Then, you’re in trouble for sure.”

“I wonder how you can smile so calmly even though you know there’s a problem…”

“If there’s no problem, it’s annoying because you’ll never know when something’s going to happen. But if there’s already a problem, you can deal with it.”

“I didn’t know that it was something as simple as that!”

When the barrier came into view, their steps stopped. The secret dozer in Jung Si-woo’s arms was vibrating like crazy in front of the secret barrier. It seemed that the temple really had some value.

[Kyaahahahah!]

[Kyaah! Kaha!]

“Oh, my…!”

The problem was the monsters sticking to the barrier as if they had put honey on it. The majority were goblins, but some of them were bipedal monsters with snakeheads.

[Enemies! Enemies seeking the temple!]

[Enemies!]

The monsters ignored the protective barrier and stared straight at them. Lee Seo-hee gently bit her lips and raised one hand. The amount of mana gathered inside her palm was unusual, and Soo Ah-rin was amazed.

“There must have been a miscalculation, Si-woo. I’ll deal with all of these first, so hide for a moment.”

“Hide? You must be joking.”

Lee Seo-hee said she wanted to protect Jung Si-woo, but he just smiled at her words and took a step forward.

[Khaaaakkag]

An enemy that was angry at his behavior burst out screaming.

“Ha.”

[Kehe!]

It was hit by Jung Si-woo’s fist, and its head exploded.

“Uh, you…”

“You must have forgotten, Seo-hee.”

Jung Si-woo explained kindly to Lee Seo-hee, who was dazed by his violence that ordinary players didn’t have.

“Even if I don’t have wings, I will always have strength.”

Seeing the blood dripping from Jung Si-woo’s fist, Lee Seo-hee had no choice but to nod. Monsters rushed in with a roar, and Jung Si-woo’s smile grew wider.

It was the beginning of the most trivial massacre on earth.
