Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[ Stage 1 – This is the last free part. ]

Ten days have passed since the four guilds let the superhumans into the gate.

With the gate in the background, a female reporter was reporting on the situation.

“This is in front of the gate in Jongno-gu, Seoul. The four guild alliance punitive forces that entered there ten days ago have still not returned. “Experts generally predict their extinction.”

The reporter pointed the microphone at the man next to him.

“Then, let’s bring in a government official and listen to their story.”

Next to the reporter, the government official who had let the four guilds into the dungeon ten days ago was standing with a pale face.

“Hello.”

The reporter threw a fastball from the beginning.

“There is strong public criticism over whether the government’s poor prediction and response caused this accident. What do you think?”

“We are doing our best. However, we are still in the process of trial and error…”

The answer from the government official, who was sweating coldly, only sounded like a lame excuse.

The reporter moved on to the next question.

This time it was a heavy fact bombing.

“I heard that there was friction during the gate entry process. “Is it true that there was a disruption in the operation because the operation time was changed without notice?”

The government official’s expression became even more pale. If that fact was discovered in this atmosphere, he would be finished.

“Sa sa sa it is unfounded! That was adjusted after the four guilds agreed…”

The reporter tilted his head.

“That’s strange. According to the data sent by Whitehouse…”

“That is…”

The government official making excuses while sweating cold was broadcast live on TV.

Baek Young-hee was biting her nails and looking at that scene.

“…….”

Although they took revenge on the bastard who fucked them up, Baek Young-hee was not happy at all.

This was because the 7 teams that entered the dungeon had not yet returned.

Baek Young-hee’s face was speechless because she had stayed up all night a few days ago.

At that time, there was a hand tapping Baek Young-hee’s shoulder.

“Younghee. “Don’t worry too much.”

He is the second team leader of the Whitehouse Guild. It was Bang Woo-hyuk.

“Uncle…”

Because Baek Chang-soo and Bang Woo-hyuk were like older brothers, Baek Young-hee called Bang Woo-hyuk uncle.

Bang Woo-hyuk smiled softly and said.

“Uncle will save the children of Team 7.”

With Team 1 absent due to a long-term mission, Team 2 was the elite of the Whitehouse Guild. They had the power to single-handedly defeat even an A-class dungeon.

In other words, investing this much power into an unknown dungeon was a considerable risk.

However, neither Baek Chang-soo nor Bang Woo-hyuk were men who worried about such things.

Therefore, among the four guilds, the Whitehouse Guild was the only one to decide to dispatch a rescue team.

Bang Woo-hyuk looked back at his teammates and shouted.

“Starting in 5 minutes! “Please report after each final inspection!”

““Old!””

White House Team 2 moved in perfect order.

All of them are seasoned veterans. Even without special instructions, it moved like well-aligned gears and was ready in an instant.

Reporters flocked to take pictures of them.

This was because this photo might be their last appearance.

“Whew…”

Bang Woo-hyuk took a short, deep breath to relax.

And the moment he was about to take a step towards the gate,

wow!

The gate suddenly began to vibrate violently.

Bang Woo-hyuk quickly stepped back and took out his spear.

“Ready for battle!!”

When something comes over the gate, the degree of vibration increases in proportion to the volume and weight of the object.

Oooooh!

Bang Woo-hyuk muttered with a stern expression.

“If it’s shaking this much, it means it’s quite heavy and big… Everyone, step back further!”

It wasn’t just the Whitehouse 2 team.

The muzzles and muzzles of the troops surrounding the gate were loaded all at once.

Oooooh!

Everyone looked at the gate with nervous faces.

A moment later, what came out of the gate

was a guild vehicle that had far exceeded its load capacity.

“what…!”

“What is all that?”

Cars loaded with loot boxes that were twice as high as the car body and whose roofs were caved in were creaking out of the gate.

one. Two cars. Generation.

After all the vehicles loaded with a mountain of loot had left, people walked out one by one.

Most of them had dazed expressions, as if they had just woken up from sleep.

“Why am I here…?”

“I even remember being stung by a bee…”

“The sound of a whistle keeps ringing in my ear…”

While everyone was dazed by the unexpected situation, the reporter who was interviewing a government official took the microphone away from him and shouted.

“Everyone, do you see that! Superhumans thought to be missing have returned! Logo visible on the vehicle! This is Whitehouse Guild! “You can also see survivors behind the vehicle!”

At the same time, numerous flashes went off.

Click! Click! Click! Click!

The miraculous return of people who most people thought were dead.

There was no material better suited to the front page of the news than this.

At the end of the return procession, the landlord with a sour expression walked out.

Lily, who was sleeping soundly, was on Daein’s back, and Wang Guho was following behind her, pulling a cart.

Bang Woo-hyuk screamed after discovering the landlord.

“Team Leader Lim!”

And Baek Young-hee showed it through actions rather than words.

“manager!”

Baek Young-hee ran out without anyone to stop her and hugged the landlord.

No, I tried to hug him.

The landlord frowned when he saw Baek Young-hee running towards him.

“what?”

As the landlord dodged to the side, Baek Young-hee hugged Wang Gu-ho, who was behind him, instead of him.

“Huh…”

“Ah…”

Wang Guhao’s body was petrified in a different way.

And at that moment, dozens of flashes exploded simultaneously.

Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click!

It was the moment when the photo that would make the news headlines the next day was decided.

After getting into the car, Baek Young-hee continued to complain.

“It’s really too much. “What if I dodge at that timing?”

I was leaning back comfortably on the car seat.

As expected, the ride comfort of the car driven by driver Park Young-bae is the best.

“What should I do if he suddenly rushes at me? “The instinctive sense of a superman is telling me to avoid it.”

“That’s why you embarrass people…!”

Wang Guho, who was sitting in the corner, muttered with a sullen expression on his face.

“sorry. “I embarrassed you because of me…”

“No, that’s not it!”

I watched Baek Young-hee making excuses to Wang Gu-ho for a moment, then turned my head and looked at the little boy who was sleeping on my shoulder.

Quietly.

The little boy was asleep without a care in the world.

I must have used a lot of energy when fighting the Soul Devourer, so from that day on, I seemed to sleep for 12 hours a day.

My cheeks also seem to have become a bit thinner.

“I guess I’ll have to go back and feed him more.”

At that moment, the little boy’s ears perked up.

…isn’t this supposed to sleep?

I looked at the little boy with suspicion for a while, but

he was sleeping well, even drooling.

So was that just a conditioned reflex?

“Ugh. “It’s seven days old.”

I wiped the kid’s drool with my sleeve and turned my head out the window.

The sun was already going down, and numerous cars were following us.

Not only guild vehicles, but also media vehicles following me in hopes of getting an interview from me.

Of course, I declined all interviews.

Earlier, Team 2 leader Bang Woo-hyuk took care of the problem without me having to step forward.

“Treatment and recovery of the injured comes first now!”

Of course, our Korean reporters would not give up like that, but they said,

“One word! All it takes is one word!”

“What happened in there!?”

“Mr. Wang Guho! What is your relationship with Baek Young-hee!!”

Bang Woo-hyuk aimed his spear at the reporters who were rushing towards him and roared loudly.

“Didn’t I say no!!!”

…For a moment, I thought I was watching a chapter from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The reporters sat down, weighed down by Bang Woo-hyuk’s momentum, and in the meantime, we got into the car and were heading back to the guild.

“Hmm-.”

As I returned to a familiar and comfortable place, I yawned.

Even though I didn’t use my body much, I was quite tired just from going to the dungeon once.

Since I’ve earned a lot this time, I’ll have to ask for a week’s vacation.

Let’s get some rest first and then go to a hot spring or something with the little guy.

Then something outside the window came into my field of vision.

That couldn’t be possible….

I looked back at Baek Young-hee and asked.

“Mr. Younghee. “Did it rain today?”

Baek Younghee shook her head.

“no. “It was clear for several days.”

“…….”

When I turned my head again and looked out the window in silence, Baek Young-hee followed my gaze and said, “Ah.” He said.

“Is that why you did that?”

There was a rainbow floating where Baek Young-hee pointed with her finger.

Even though it was already past afternoon and night was almost over, the rainbow was shining clearly.

…That’s not a natural phenomenon.

“It must have appeared three days ago. “Isn’t it amazing?”

Three days…

well, it’s about time it started.

“Iknow, right. that’s interesting.”

I nodded, looking at the signs of the first plague [the night of the seven moons].

I’m not sure of the exact date.

What is certain is that disaster will begin on the day when all the colors of the rainbow disappear.

Slurp.

The red band of the rainbow was already fading.

“…I think it will take about a month.”

“What?”

“There is such a thing.”

When that rainbow completely disappears, hundreds of gates are created simultaneously on the ground.

The city is destroyed, the army is destroyed, and countless people die due to the overwhelming offensive force.

A complete disaster.

At that time, I was trapped in a bomb shelter and fought waves of monsters for three days and nights.

The fight ended only when I thought I was dead.

It’s different now than then.

I belonged to a guild that was stronger and bigger than before, and

next to me was the kid who had turned Seoul into a sea of fire, sleeping comfortably.

“And this damn watch.”

I glared at the watch on my left wrist. The one who

extended my grand goal of complete transformation indefinitely and

gulped down the enormous magical power of the soul stone.

While returning from the dungeon, I did everything I could to find out this guy’s identity.

And then I found out.

Some of the patterns on the watch face serve as buttons.

As I was staring at the clock, Baek Young-hee asked with a curious look.

“Why the clock?”

“…Shall I show you something fun?”

When I lightly stroke the surface of the watch,

it clicks!

The metal of the watch spread wide, turning into a gauntlet that wrapped around my left hand.

This was the first stage of transformation.
