Chapter 299
Episode 299 [Remaining Stories (2)]
A dark room with blackout curtains drawn on the window.
The shop window was filled with a variety of potions, and experiment materials were spread out on the desk.
The interior of the room looked like a witch’s laboratory transported to modern times.
There was someone in the room who was engrossed in an experiment for a while. It was Jin Xiawei, with dull hair and a scruffy appearance.
While mixing the medicine here and there, she sighed and got up as if something wasn’t working.
“Shall we take a break?”
She walked to the window and opened the blackout curtains.
Afternoon sunlight streamed into the room.
Jin Xiawei narrowed her eyes and looked out the window.
A neatly maintained runway caught her eye.
All the damaged and abandoned airplanes were removed and could not be seen, and instead, sleek-looking small aircraft and helicopters were taking their place.
Instead, no planes were seen flying over the runway.
It had been quiet since morning, and it seemed like there was no plane taking off today.
“Was it today? Fortunately, the weather is not bad.”
She opened her phone, checked the date, and smiled awkwardly.
It’s been over a month since I came to this world.
The first few days were busy with setting up a new laboratory, deciding on accommodations, and meeting people, but after that, I was just stuck in the lab doing research.
“I have to go out. “It’s comfortable, but if I keep doing this, I’ll end up in trouble.”
Jin Xiawei tied her hair up and entered the washroom attached to her room.
After a while, Jin Xiawei came out of the washroom and looked like the person who shook the hearts of many men at the cocktail bar a few years ago.
She opened the lab door and went out.
As she walked out the door, a spacious passenger terminal greeted her.
At first, this place was very old, but now it looks like a new building.
Of course, this place was not crowded with people like the Incheon Airport terminal in the world where she lived.
The people I occasionally saw were EV members, not tourists, and I saw more robots than people.
She looked around the empty airport with a curious look on her face.
A month has passed, but every time I see it, it’s just amazing.
A parallel world. Hearing it in words and seeing it in person were really different.
“Rather than that, you are thinking of using Incheon Airport as a base. “It’s hard for an ordinary person to keep up.”
She said something that would have made other people look shocked if they heard it.
They say she decided on it because it is close to Seoul, safety is guaranteed because it is an island, it has a runway so it is easy to use by plane, and the airport facilities are well-preserved, but as someone who had no experience with this, it just felt strange.
She walked around the empty terminal for a bit.
Weeeeeee! thud. thud.
A loud noise began to be heard. It seemed that the soundproofing device that had been installed was broken again.
She stood in front of the door from which the sound came.
[Item Development Lab: Director’s Office]
Boom. thud.
Perhaps because of the shock, the doorplate that was hastily made a month ago was slightly tilted.
She straightened the doorplate and knocked on the door.
smart.
It wasn’t a loud sound, but thanks to the mana, I was able to hear the answer right away.
“Come on in.”
Omar’s voice came from inside.
She opened the door halfway and looked inside.
Omar’s studio, which is also the director’s office of the item development laboratory, was a converted airport office, just like her laboratory.
On one wall, sculptures made as a hobby were displayed, and the room was littered with equipment items and work tools being made.
“Working?”
“yes. As you can see.”
Jin Xiawei’s life changed when she came here, leaving behind all public affairs, but Omar’s life did not change when he came here.
I worked during the day, came back, had a meal with her and the others, and spent the remaining time creating new pieces.
Jin Xiawei once asked Omar when he saw that his life had not changed from before. Why did you decide to come to this world?
But it was a stupid question.
“There’s no way I could be left alone when my family is moving.”
Jin Xiawei, Kyunghun Liu Yiling and women. His entire family had come to this world.
And when he came here, his family was getting bigger and bigger.
Isabel and the other EV family members were also becoming his new family.
Omar looked at Jin Xiawei and tilted his head.
“You even put on your makeup properly… Is there an event going on somewhere?”
Jin Xiawei shook her head at Omar’s words.
“Just a walk. Today is that day. “I came out to take a look.”
Omar burst out in exclamation at Jin Xiawei’s words.
“Yes. I’ll follow right away. “I still have some things left to finish.”
“I’m going to walk around a bit, so come to the south pier where I always go on time.”
“Yes.”
Omar started working again and Jin Xiawei looked at what Omar was making before closing the door.
‘Is it a glove? Looking at the size, it’s a Kyunghun one.’
What Omar was finishing up for a while was a pair of gloves with mana stones embedded in them. I wondered what he had been making for a month, but it seemed like he was making gloves to give to Kyung-hoon. She shook her head as she closed the door. “I am making an item for Kyung-hoon, but it will come out soon
.
” I don’t know if I can do it…”
It seemed like I would have to do the sightseeing alone.
She walked leisurely past Omar’s room.
The terminal and airport looked a little different from the Incheon Airport in the world where she originally lived.
Because the monsters appeared early, the number of runways was much smaller, but the terminal with Mana civilization was powered by Mana stones from the basic facilities, so it was very comfortable even without people.
thud. thud.
Work robots called golems passed by her.
It was all thanks to these robots that this base was run by a small number of people.
“I guess I should say it’s thanks to Eve.”
She watched Golem driving the garbage truck and then walked out of the terminal.
When I came out, the afternoon sunlight stung my eyes.
As the mana clouds decreased, the number of days with sunlight seemed to increase significantly.
As I left the terminal, I heard a wolf yelling and the howl of a wolf from afar.
Wow!
“Come to your senses! What should I do if I am pushed back by just one animal? Do you want to go back to everything? “Are you going to go out with the wet-smelling Association Awakenings to catch regular-level monsters?”
Awakened people and a silver wolf monster were fighting in a wide asphalt vacant lot that used to be a parking lot.
The wolf disappeared and reappeared, and each time the awakened people were sent flying in all directions.
Even though the wolves did not use their teeth and claws and the awakened people did not load their weapons with mana, a terrifying fight was going on to the general public.
And in front of him, Rosalia was shouting at the awakened people flying in all directions.
“If you’re as good as you are now, don’t even say you belong to EV! Heck, I can’t even last a single moment! “Is this really going to be helpful during raids?”
Although she continued to yell, the awakeners in black body armor continued to be pushed back by the silver wolf.
Rosalia’s pet. Connie the silver wolf has now grown into a full adult.
Vasily, who was watching the fight from afar, turned his head when he heard a sound behind him.
“Is it okay to be that harsh?”
“Oh, are you out? Hey, where are you going? “It’s been a while since you looked great.”
“Every circle says the same thing…”
Jin Xiawei shook her head.
Vasily chuckled and looked ahead.
“There hasn’t been a big raid for a while. I’ve been so relaxed during this time. “It’s time to ratchet up the tension again.”
It seemed quite extreme for raising tension, but no third party could say anything about the team leaders training their team members.
Jin Xiawei stood next to Vasily and watched the training together.
“Ahh!”
“Stop it!”
“Damn, there’s no cooldown anymore?”
“How do the enforcers figure out where to show up? “Wow!”
A gymnasium could be seen along with the buildings behind the awakened people flying away screaming.
Jin Xiawei looked at the gym.
“Then is it time to wake up?”
“yes. “I guess so.”
“hmm. Then, should I stop by on the way…”
Jin Xiawei waved his hand at Rosalia, who was looking back at Vasily at the same time, and started walking again.
Rosalia’s eyes narrowed. She shouted at Vasily.
“Vasily, you too!”
“No, who told you to leave earlier….”
“Anyway!”
Vasily shook his head and walked towards the training area.
The silver wolf that had been blowing away his teammates for a while looked back at him.
Vasily remembered the time when he faced a wolf just like that wolf. At that time, all he could do was hold on. It wasn’t Kyung-hoon. Otherwise, he would have died.
Vasily looked at the wolf and grinned.
“Okay. It’s revenge!”
He sprayed mana with all his might and a huge shield spread out around him.
Kwa-kwa-kwa!
The shield grew bigger, digging into the ground, and
boo!
The startled wolf moved in space and retreated a long way.
Rosalia shouted at him.
“Vasil! You’re going to kill the kid!” “Is this your idea? It’s training!”
“Ah… I did.”
Jin Xiawei smiled at the sound coming from behind. They were a nice looking pair.
After taking a walk while listening to the groans of the awakened people, Jin Xiawei arrived in front of the gym.
The front of the gym was empty . It was empty.
There were guards guarding the entrance to the gym, but today they were nowhere to be seen.
“Is Isabelle there?”
She opened the gym door and went in.
Grumbling.
In the center of the large gym, a lion was lying down with its wings folded. The
lion was asleep.
And Isabel was sitting next to the sleeping lion.
She was leaning against the lion’s side, reading a book. There was.
Jin Xiawei waved at Isabelle, who raised her head.
Isabelle also gave her a look, and Jin Xiawei quietly walked up to her side.
“It’s okay. It’s not a normal sleep, so you can make noise.”
“Really? I’m glad.”
Isabelle patted the seat next to her. Jin Xiawei carefully sat down next to her. As she
leaned back, Bailey’s fluffy fur supported her back.
“Ugh… it’s good.”
Isabelle smiled at the sight of Jin Xiawei shaking.
“Are you coming out to see the launch scene?”
“That’s right. It doubles as a walk.”
Isabel nodded,
“It would be pretty cool. I wanted to see it too…”
“Aren’t you going?”
“It’s time for Bailey to wake up. I want to protect her by her side. It’s lonely when she wakes up alone.”
Two weeks ago Bailey went back to sleep. The second evolution has begun.
The high-level monster hunting that had been going on for a while was stopped, and the awakened people spent their time training.
Fortunately, the second evolution took a short time.
This morning, Kyung-hoon told me that he would wake up within the next 24 hours.
After hearing that story, the awakened people began difficult training, and Isabelle stayed by Bailey’s side.
“But what are you reading?”
Jin Xiawei pointed to the book Isabelle had opened.
“It’s [Monarch Theory].”
“Monarch theory?”
Jin Xiawei frowned.
“Kyung-hoon told me to read it because it was important.”
“this. “I don’t know what on earth they’re trying to make you do.”
A political science book for a girl who isn’t even an adult yet. Are you thinking of making him a king?
“He said I needed to learn how to get along well with people.”
“I asked a lot of questions.”
“Why did they bring the EV people to this world and why did they bury the foundation of the other world? What should we do to revive this world?…” “This is a book he gave me to refer to while explaining.
”
Jin Xiawei nodded at Isabelle’s words.
If that meant it, it was a book Isabelle needed.
“Then can you explain it to me?”
Jin Xiawei, who had returned to work in charge of Isabelle’s education after a long time, asked Isabelle.
But Isabelle could not answer what she said.
Crowling.
The lion began to wriggle.
Bailey was waking up.
