Ep.110 Flowers Blooming on the Cliff.

In the center of the pink storm, something was flashing like purple electricity.

There was a breathtaking silence.

Looking at me with trembling eyes is Moonlight Shaman, who has already smashed Seoul with three mana storms.

Unlike the impregnable storm that no hero seemed to be able to stop, she looked vulnerable and young at the center of it.

What the hell did you just say

She asked me in a slightly trembling voice.

Seeing the magic circles floating around swaying dangerously in the air, she must be bewildered.

And now is just the right time to push.

I still grinned, and spoke up as I walked one step closer to her.

Moonlight Shaman, I mean, Ms. Baek Eun-wol. Im familiar with Wolgwanggyo. I even know everything about the leader.

As I walked towards her saying that, she stepped back in surprise.

I told her with a smile.

Eun-wol, please be honest. Youre suffering from Wolgwanggyo, right? Actually, you dont want to terrorize, do you? But you have no choice but to do it because of the leader.

As I continued to stride, I arrived at her nose before she knew it.

As she stepped back a little, she had no place to retreat, but trembled in front of me.

The magic circles in the air had been shaken then disappeared.

Dont you want to live without being swayed by them anymore?

I said in front of her.

Shes shivering a little.

As expected, she was unable to move if I went at her aggressively like in the original.

At the beginning, she must have been living a life of being trapped and manipulated only by the leader, and forced to smile at those believers .

It may be her first time to have such a direct conversation with someone else.

Baek Eun-wol still looked up at me in confusion.

Well, Ive pushed it so far, so lets go out smoothly this time.

Having said that, I kneeled right on one knee and made eye contact with her.

To her, who is still losing her mind, I smiled.

This time, I spoke quietly and softly.

Ill save you.

Leave Wolgwanggyo and join me.

Ill take down the leader.

So, why dont you join hands with me and live a new life together?

I reached out after saying that.

She looked at me, still smiling at her.

She was still shaking slightly, but her eyes were calmer than before.

And like that, she glanced at me with red eyes.

She began to talk.

First of all, I dont know how you know me so well. But I dont know Still.

Having said that, she continued to talk to me in a slightly trembling voice.

Are you really going to help me?

Yes, thats right.

W-Why? Im just a monster

She suddenly said that to me in a reproachful voice.

Thats it. Nows the chance.

Suddenly, I grabbed her hand, whose information was dug up by the stranger in front of her.

Suddenly, she freaked out as I grabbed her hand.

But I shouted shamelessly, as if I hadnt read the signs.

No, you are not a monster.

I dont know anyone else, but I know. I saw it. I know that while youre doing all this terrorism, you control yourself so people dont get hurt as much as possible.

Who can call you a monster? Who would know how youve endured without giving in even though you were manipulated by the leader?

Eun-wol, you are not a monster. Dont blame yourself. Thats why.

I grabbed and hugged her in my arms.

Dont cry.

And the girl listening to my words,

is now crying silently.

***

She gave up everything.

She was prepared to die here.

She had swallowed all her sorrow, and had made up her mind.

Yeah.

She doesnt think its all over even if she disappeared, but.

I guess its right to walk out of here.

He appeared to her so determined.

This strange man in a mask.

A strange man who suddenly greeted her with a smile, how he knew her personal information, and even knows her inner feelings.

Then, the man asked her to hold hands with him because he would knock down the leader.

Hes a strange man.

She doesnt know how the hell he knows about herself and Wolgwanggyo.

But it didnt matter to her.

Why dont you join hands with me and live a new life together?

She had already given up everything.

She was determined enough to give up her life, to give up everything.

And the rope suddenly appeared to her.

She doesnt know if its a firm rope or a rotten rope. She had no idea how to know.

But

Its the only rope that came down to her now.

Its a new opportunity for her to give up everything.

Whats the difference if she kicks this thing?

After all, she was used by the leader and destroyed Seoul, she was destined to die under a heros hands.

So if shes destined to die anyway.

One last time, she can trust this guy, right?

And

Apart from all that, from the beginning.

He was the first person to speak so warmly to her.

The leader always gave her orders in a cold voice

Believers sing only meaningless praises to her without any sincerity in their eyes

And even the room there is dark.

To her, who has lived so isolated from the world.

To her, who was determined to receive a contemptuous look.

He brightly smiled, said nice things, and for the first time in her life, he would give her a new opportunity. He said he would release the curse.

Because he was the first.

She had no choice but to trust him.

And that saying toward her, who always blamed herself for being a monster.

Youre not a monster. he said.

Without even realizing it, she shed tears.

Yeah Theres nothing more to lose anyway.

Just once. Just one last time Lets trust this guy.

***

All right.

I think I succeeded in passing it using the suspension bridge effect as planned.

I actually scripted more words than this. Moonlight Shaman was persuaded more easily than I thought. I guess shes been under a lot of stress. Well, shes a poor kid who even told Stardus to kill her in the original, so I guess it makes sense.

With that in mind, I kept stroking her still in my arms.

I feel like I just have another little sister who needs a lot of care.

Thats not the point anyway.

I pulled her still whimpering out from my arms, and told her.

So, youre really determined to be with us, arent you?

Yes, but because of my curse, my leader No, the leader can keep an eye on me Well, actually, even now

She looked up at me anxiously.

I guess she can still hear the leaders voice.

Yes, of course I have to remove it for you. Before that, hold on a second.

After that, I teleported and disappeared.

Where? Right to where our Ego-battleship is.

Ugh.

Da-in!

As soon as I arrived on the ship, Ha-yul saw me and ran.

Da-in, how did it go? Helicopters are flying around right now.

Ah. Im going to turn on the broadcast in a little while anyway, so all of them will be focused on this side. Dont worry.

I checked her outfit.

Shes dressed neatly in a white robe, giving off a mysterious atmosphere. Good. Its her first debut, so she has to come out pretty.

Well, first of all, lets go right away. You can use your healing powers now, right?

Yeah.

All right, lets go.

I grabbed Ha-yuls hand and moved back to the center of the storm.

And as soon as we got there, a creepy voice was heard.

My child. What are you doing? Hurry up and answer me!

Sob

As the old mans voice was heard in the storm, Moonlight Shaman was shivering.

Oh, gosh. Has the leader noticed it already?

Theres no time.

Ha-yul, come on!

Yes!

Ha-yul ran like an arrow and hugged Baek Eun-wol, the trembling Moonlight Shaman sitting down.

And at the same time, white light emanating from both.

My child. Answer me. My child! Answ-. me. ___

And at the same time.

The gruesome voice that was heard in the storm began to diminish. Its finally gone.

And the silence came back.

Haa Haa

Baek Eun-wol, Moonlight Shaman who was panting. Soon, she saw that she couldnt hear his voice, so she looked at her hand. She just mumbled blankly.

I dont hear him anymore?

Yes, Eunwol. Congratulations. The curse that the leader casted on you has been lifted. You are free.

The easiest way to lift the curse.

You can just call a healer to heal the whole body. The end!

Thats what Im saying.

Baek Eun-wol, who was still absent-minded, only spoke slightly in tears as if she couldnt believe it.

.Thank you. Thank you. T-Thank you

Then, she constantly said thank you to me and Ha-yul.

As the curse was described in the original work, she always said she felt like she was being gnawed and watched. Maybe since its gone now, she could feel it right away.

All right. You can just thank us later. Calm down for now. Dont cry.

Yes, dont cry.

Ha-yul and I comforted her. She started to stop sobbing.

In the meantime, Ha-yul was stroking Baek Eun-wol with a tender smile like a nun as I told her to. Or probably shes just a nice kid.

Anyway, after she calmed down a little.

I told her, who was looking at me with much more trust than before.

All right, Eun-wol, now that youre not under the leaders watch anymore, youre now part of our Ego Stream.

Yeah. Oh, okay!

Sure. To celebrate that, lets do a broadcast with me.

What?

We have to turn on the broadcast.

***

Ego Streams ship appeared where Moonlight Shaman caused the terror! The news spread nationwide in a flash.

Egostic had come in person, preventing terrorism. Wait, even Stardus and Shadow Walker couldnt get in, how can Egostic do it? Hell never get to the center. I mean, if its our Mango then who knows etc

When people were on fire, rolling the hope circuit to the limit,

Flash-

Suddenly from the pink storm, a purple stream of light flashed up toward the sky.

Everyones attention focused on a sudden event.

At the same time, the storm rapidly changed.

The moment when people are most nervous.

[Fuck hahahaha. Egostics broadcast ON hahahahahaha]

Egostics broadcast is on air.

Hello, everyone! This is Egostic!
