Volume 6 – Dominator

 

Chapter 4

After the news was televised, the top searches on the browser were all regarding Ironman and his contributions. Haneul felt that what he did was the correct thing to do. It was exactly what he was hoping for.

The coverage of Silver Knight was kept to a bare minimum, almost to the point where it felt like he wasn’t even part of it. The news focused on Ironman and how he risked his life in order to protect the people. The talk regarding Silver Knight was like side dish to a main course meal, and the Reporters also calculated that focusing on Ironman would bring them more viewers.

Awesome, this is what Haneul hoped for.

Thinking this thought, he turned his phone on.

It’s been a couple of days since he’s received any messages on his messenger.

Normally, Minah should have contacted him first but after that day, she has never called or messaged.

Even Haneul who had no experience regarding dating knew.

It was over.

There was nothing left connecting their relationship together.

That’s what Haneul felt.

Right as Haneul put away his phone and closed his eyes to sleep, something happened.

Flash.

Haneul quickly opened his eyes.

Earlier, he was able to feel some sort of sharp feeling.

Haneul quickly got up and turned his head. As he focused on the feeling, he was able to sense a magic that was growing stronger by the second. There was no doubt about it.

‘It’s coming from the hospital.’

Haneul rushed outside immediately.

In the midst of the cold air blowing late at night, Haneul quickly started running. He could feel it. He was certain of it. It was the same feeling he got after an Earthquake appeared.

Haneul was assured that this magic feeling was different from a Hero’s.

It was a much sharper and complex pattern.

Suddenly, Haneul received a message through his phone. It was a message from the Organization. Currently, there was an unknown entity with a small magic phenomenon occurring, basically meaning that a monster had appeared.

“As I thought!”

Haneul focused his magic into the ring.

Jiiinnng.

The Silver ring moved as it instantly covered Haneul’s whole body.

Silver Armor Hero. Silver Knight.

“They really don’t take a break. It’s only been a couple of days since they last appeared.”

Haneul has yet to see and sight an Earthquake happening.

However, he was definitely able to feel the monster’s magic.

Haneul kicked hard against the ground and jumped into the air. He instantly appeared on the roof of a building and continued forth with his maximum speed towards the hospital.

As Haneul was jumping through downtown, he was able to feel a strong vitality which he wasn’t able to feel before when he was still on the ground. People may think that Haneul is crazy if he said this, but he could not think of a life without fighting off monsters now.

This electrifying feeling made Haneul feel alive, and assured him of his existence in this world.

‘I am a Hero.’

 

*     *     *     *

BOOOM!

“Ugh.”

The pathways from the 2nd floor to the 1st floor were completely blocked off. The Heroes that backed away up to the 3rd floor were panting.

In the midst of these Heroes was Ironman. He was holding onto his metal pipe while swallowing down dry saliva.

“What should we do now?”

“If we don’t get rid of it, we will be the ones to suffer…….The problem is that there are regular citizens mixed in with the Heroes. Fuck, what kind of situation is this……”

The first time the monster appeared was on the 1st floor.

The guard in charge of the 1st floor, Sung Yul, was slowly getting eaten away by the monster. The first guard to arrive on scene was the guard in charge of the 2nd floor, Byung In. He was very frustrated on how he should go about getting rid of the monster. There was no doubt that it was a monster, but in order to get rid of it, the 2nd guard also had to get rid of the Hero it was eating.

As the 2nd guard Byung In was thinking of ways to handle the situation, the problem just escalated into a whole different level.

The monster’s magic was growing to the point where it was starting to fill its surroundings. Not too long ago, a person sensitive enough to magic had to really focus in order to feel it, but now it’s been amplified.

After that, another frustrating situation occurred.

A nurse that suddenly appeared from behind. That nurse also had some weird, detestable thing attached to her head.

Contagion.

That thing looked like a virus that was contagious.

As if the thing knew of the merits it had with the ability to infect others, the monster quickly expanded and infected more of its surroundings.

“Is there still no word from the Organization?”

“Fuck, it’s not connecting. The magic here is continuing to grow. This place is slowly transitioning into an Earthquake.”

There weren’t many Heroes that were fully recovered.

Thankfully, Ironman was almost recovered and had the strength to fight. However, the problem was that their location was currently closed off and could not receive any orders from the Organization. Going into a fight in this kind of situation would only lead to the Heroes suffering more.

BOOOM!

The iron door that was blocking the path flew away again.

“I think we should head outside first………..”

“We can’t! The alert hasn’t been issued yet. If those things can infect more people, the moment we make it outside, the ones who will be in danger are the civilians.”

“Shit! Then let’s go up for now. The top floor has Rank A Heroes, so we should try talking with them and ask for their advice.”

With Ironman’s words, everyone nodded with agreement.

As Ironman was helping lead the hurt people up towards the upper floor, he turned around and saw a person strangely following them. A face filled with confusion, and a monstrous life form situation on top of their head. The thing looked similar to a human’s brain, but there were two huge eyes connected to it.

There has never been a monster that looked like this before.

“Shit.”

 

Chapter 4 – End.
