Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 4)

Chapter 751: To The End (10)

No further command was given.

Why...?

Did I hit the limit?

That must've been it. Kiyoung understood what I could do and how I could move. He had a complete understanding of what kind of performance I could show. Perhaps...

'Is he judging that my body can't hold up?'

It was difficult to self-diagnose exactly how my body was doing. It wasn't easy to think about anything else because of my focus on wielding my sword and moving my feet.

The warzone was wide. He might've been thinking that I got exhausted quickly or that I should retire soon.

'I think I can do more.'

No. His judgment was correct. At that moment, the answer was to adjust the pace. However, it wouldn't be bad to increase the tension a little more.

I wanted to say that I was okay, but it wasn't easy to speak out because I felt I would be forcing too much.

Instead, I started to move a bit more than I was commanded. Maybe he would see that I could afford to do a little more. He definitely would. However, no more missions arrived. In the end, I had to speak carefully. I wasn't trying to convince myself, but it seemed like the answer was to end the war like this.

"I will increase my pace a little more."

-...

Still, no other command came.

'Does he think it's impossible...'

Was he really judging that my body was facing its limits?

'I can still do more...'

I had to show that that wasn't the end.

I still couldn't hear his voice. My mind became complicated because I still thought it wasn't enough. It was then, as I held my sword tighter by the sudden sense of shame, that I noticed something.

"Huh..."

The change started to happen slowly yet also suddenly. The first thing that became different was the view of the battlefield.

"What... what... the hell..."

It felt as if I was looking at the world through the eyes of an insect. I felt a tremendous pain in my left eye and touched it, but it soon began to disappear.

It wasn't only the front that was visible in my vision. From the side and the back, the vast battlefield and a multi-angle view entered my sights from top to bottom.

It hurt, almost enough to break my mind, due to the amount of information that came in instantly. I came to understand everything.

I got to know how powerful the angel in front of me was, how the war situation was going, and what I needed to do at that moment.

The sensation of my wings seemingly be spiking swept behind my back, and completely new feelings came as soon as it disappeared.

Did they say that dogs gained tens of thousands of information by smelling? I thought I was currently in a similar situation.

The breathing of the enemies, the allies' state, the cold floor, and the dried blood, the flow of air, the texture of the skin, and all the sensations I felt all at once were new.

Among them, the newest was...

"Haha."

The sense of being connected with him.

"Ha... Hahaha!"

I wasn't sure, but there's something I could feel. It was as if we were connected.

Maybe Kiyoung was feeling the same thing. I knew everything about his breathing and physical condition as a partner on the battlefield.

It was as if he was right behind me, in front of me, and beside me all at the same time. I removed the receiver that was plugged into my ear. I didn't need anything like it anymore.

I was finally recognized. Finally, I could stand next to him. The sense of accomplishment was wrapped around my whole body, and I had no choice but to grab my legs, which were shaking momentarily.

-Are you okay?

"Yes. I'm fine."

I heard the voice that resonated inside my head rather than from my ear.

-Are you really okay?

I swung my sword and grabbed my head with my other hand.

I wasn't used to the sensation of my head exploding. My left eye, which I thought was okay, kept throbbing.

'Why...'

I thought I could see why that genius was considerate of me.

'Kim Hyunsung... Kim Hyunsung... This moron. The idiot... doesn't even know his place...'

I was able to realize why he hadn't said those words so far.

-You don't have to force yourself. It looks like it isn't possible yet. It's a shame, but...

"No. It's fine. I'm fine. I can handle it. Yes."

-Let's see the status.

"I am... I am okay."

-If you're tired, you can always tell me. You don't have to overdo it.

"I can do this... even all day."

-If you say so... I will connect in earnest.

'Is this... not connected fully yet?'

-From now on, I will not send or explain the coordinates. I think you'll be able to immediately feel it.

"Yes... I can feel it. I think I can feel it."

-Then...

"Yes?"

-You can just act.

"..."

-What are you doing? Move.

I slowly removed my hand that grabbed my left vision, and I started to smile.

A whole new world was spread before my eyes.
