Legion of the Lost
Episode 42



양정인
Let's go see the snow!

It was a snowy night.


양정인
Ah... Are you unable to come out because of the iron bars...?


김승민
huh?


김승민
No. What about the iron bars...

Seungmin easily split the thick iron bars apart.


양정인
uh....?


양정인
Is the Black Magic Mountain originally strong...?


김승민
Why...? Where is it written like that?


양정인
Oh... no... you just bent that iron bar.


김승민
huh.


양정인
Normally... humans can't do that, right...?


김승민
okay?


양정인
huh...


양정인
What the... But if you could do this, why did you stay in there until now?


김승민
Just... because it's safe to stay inside.


양정인
Okay then! Let's go!

Seungmin was led by Jeongin's hand and went outside for the first time in his life.


김승민
wow...

The world Seungmin saw for the first time was so vast.

The endless sky, the horizon visible in the distance.

Seungmin looked at the sky for a long time.


양정인
what's the matter?


김승민
Because it's so pretty...


김승민
This is my first time coming out.


김승민
The sky is so wide...


양정인
Is this your first time going outside??


김승민
huh...

It was the first time I saw Seungmin's bright smile.

Jeong-in also smiled at Seung-min's innocent smile.

So the two spent a long time rolling around in the snow and laughing.


양정인
Ugh... It's getting a little cold.

Seungmin wrapped Jeongin in magic.


양정인
Wow, what did you do?


김승민
I just wrapped your body in magic.


양정인
...I wish I was born with magic.

Unlike other people, Jeong-in was born with a body that could not contain even a little bit of magic.


김승민
...even if that magic is black magic?


양정인
I think it would be better if I had that.


김승민
Even if I am not welcomed anywhere and have to live alone for the rest of my life?


양정인
You're here.


양정인
Since you're going to be with me, I guess black magic won't be so bad.


양정인
Black magic, that's kind of cool.


김승민
what.


양정인
Oh, why.

The two laughed for a long time without any reason.

After that day, Jeong-in didn't come for a while.


김승민
'Do you have a cold...'

At that moment, the door that had been closed for several days opened, and Seungmin turned his head in anticipation, but the person who came in through the open door was not Jeong-in.

"Give me an injection."

I gave Seungmin an injection, and as soon as the medicine took effect, Seungmin felt a pain inside his body, as if his heart was being torn to pieces.

Seungmin began to writhe in pain without even being able to scream.

The two people left the room with their backs to Seungmin, and the pain of being left alone did not go away even after several hours.

And that night, Jeong-in came to find Seung-min.


양정인
I'm here! I've been sick with a cold...

Jeong-in, who opened the door and came in, saw Seung-min lying on the floor, not moving at all, unlike usual, and approached him with concern.


양정인
What's wrong? Where does it hurt?


김승민
...go.


양정인
what??

Seungmin squeezed out all his remaining strength and spoke.


김승민
Go...


양정인
Wait a minute... It's poison. My father poisoned me...


양정인
I know this poison. Just open these bars quickly.

Seungmin held onto his last ounce of consciousness and opened the bars.

And then I lost consciousness.
