A week had passed since Daniel had promised.
But there was not a single phone call or text.
-Yoon Ha, it's Ji An... Have you heard from Daniel?
I've never received anything from Yoon Ha either...
-The customer's phone is turned off...
The voice actor can't even be contacted.
My heart started beating fast, wondering if something might have happened.
no..
No way...
That can't be true. I trust Daniel.
I decided to wait a little longer.
I miss you so much I'm going crazy, but still... I believe in you.
-
“Hey, boss. How long do I have to do this? ..ha..”
“That’s why I told you to go.”
Daniel and Seongwu already look very tired.
He leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. Even during that brief moment, he didn't let go of the gun.
“How do I win?”
“I can’t win. I’ve already lost. It’s been over a week.”
“What are you talking about? We’re still fighting.”
"We keep fighting, and there's no word. No orders. It feels like a trap."
"What? Then what? Fight endlessly?"
“Would you please be quiet? I’m dying from exhaustion.”
“Hey.. Surely that isn’t.. your blood, is it...?”
“Then who will get hurt..”
“...No way... was that right..?”
“...Don’t worry about it. It’s nothing.”
“Your face isn’t that bad, is it? Are you kidding me..?”
"...under..."
At some point, while everyone was focused on the war, red blood began to flow from Daniel's arm.
If he got shot, he said he got shot. If it hurt, he said it hurt. If he couldn't fight, he said he didn't. He didn't say a word. He didn't groan even once while getting shot.
The reason was simply because he was the boss.
“How long can you hold out..?”
“...Ugh... That's not important. How long can you hold out? Can you finish it within that time?”
“Then we should run away!”
“Ugh, you’re talking about running away.”
“Then what should I do? The blood keeps flowing.”
“So, what I’m saying is, tear off your sleeves.”
“..Are you crazy..? You want to fight more with that body?”
“It’s all over. Killing them all is the best way.”
“...is crazy.”
The voice actor had no choice but to tear his left sleeve,
Daniel took it and tied it three times around his forearm, the part where the blood wouldn't stop seeping out.
“..ugh...!!”
Bang bang—!
Daniel's moans were drowned out by the sound of Seongwoo's gunshot.
“How many people are there in total..!!!”
In the situation where Daniel was injured, the voice actor shouted in anxiety.
“I won’t die. I’ll come back alive.”
“Are you saying something obvious, you brat?”
The only reason I had to fight and not run away was because I was the boss, and the only reason I had to return alive was you, Han Ji-ah.
-
“Jia. The voice actor is gone.”
“What? My phone was turned off too..”
“I think I went to Daniel.”
A week and three days have passed.
There was no news of Daniel or the voice actor.
There was nothing left to do.
There is no other way than to visit Daniel's house every day.
After finishing the mission, I was so tired that I forgot to contact you and went home first. And I was so sleepy that I couldn't contact you.
So I went to see you every day, and if you kept doing that, I was going to give you a hard time.
The person waiting asks if you can sleep without even thinking about it..
But... I wish it were like that now...
Come to think of it, that was the best ending.
-Your phone is off..
Then Daniel's phone, which had been ringing continuously, also went off.
Anxiety creeps in. It would be better if there was even a ringtone, even if it meant not answering.
“.....Nothing will happen..”
“...That's right..”
“You promised me... that you would definitely come back alive.”
After receiving news that Daniel was returning, Yoon-ha had something to tell Jia right before Daniel returned.
We can't meet anymore.
When Daniel returns, he will go far away to a place where no one can find him, to protect himself and to protect me, and then we will not be able to be together.
When you lost your memory, we tried to hide our old memories as we pleased... We didn't think about your feelings at all and just assumed that was right... I'm sorry.
Four years ago, I was so grateful for the kindness you gave me.
It was our only happy ending, drawn by Daniel.
But there was no word that Daniel was coming back...
Our journey, which was about to end, was gripped by anxiety that it might end sadly.
-
They said it would take a week...
A week and three days have passed.
“..Is it.. over now...”
“...I think so..”
The smell of people's blood and corpses stings my nose.
The constant barrage of attacks has stopped.
"....under.."
“...Are you okay..?”
“...Not yet..”
The blood flowing from Daniel's arm covered the tightly bound piece of Seongwu's clothes.
"....under...."
The voice actor helped Daniel up, holding the arm opposite his injured arm, as he continued to breathe softly.
Daniel took a slow step forward, supported by the voice actor, and picked up the walkie-talkie.
“It’s over. Everyone, gather around.”
They gathered in front of the car that the voice actor brought. Y
“...Are they all here..?”
Of the people deployed, only a tiny fraction survived.
“Ten thousand.”
“Two. Five died during the operation.”
“...Two trillion.”
"...doesn't exist."
“.....3 trillion..”
“One. In operation..”
“Okay. Ha.. Everyone, get in the car. We’re leaving right away.”
The voice actor told Daniel to sit in the passenger seat while he drove.
When all the remaining team members got on and the door closed,
pop-!
It ended up exploding.
-
I had no choice but to wait.
Wait... wait...
Then, a month passed.
