Heavenly Demon Instructor Novel

Chapter 42

“Oh, I slept well.”

Park Hyunsoo woke up spontaneously after a long time.

The first thing he did was look out the window.

It was still night when I saw that the sky was black.

He checked the time and the hour hand was pointing to nine.

“Have you only slept for three hours?”

I've only slept three or four hours a day for the past few weeks because of my final exams.

Thanks to him, I fell asleep as soon as I got home today, after the exam was completely over with a lot of fatigue.

But I didn't sleep as much as I thought.

24 hours was a good idea.

Park Hyunsoo turned on the smart phone he put on his desk.

There were a lot of notifications floating around on the top bar.

From Kakao Talk notifications to text messages while you are away.

What happened so much in just 3 hours?

When I opened KakaoTalk, more than 300 chats were piled up in the same chat room.

In addition to that, there were gantok from five or six people.

All Gantoks were marked as yesterday.

There's no way I haven't seen the KakaoTalk messages that came yesterday.

Park Hyunsoo tilted his head and checked KakaoTalk.

[6:21 pm] Zeng Choi: No, what are you doing, you bastard, aren't you answering the phone?

[6:21 PM] Zeng Choi : (Emoji)

[6:40 pm] Zeng Choi: My wife and children???????

[6:25 pm] Mothee John: Nim, to commemorate the end of today's countdown, we decided to have a party with our classmates;

[6:25 pm] Mot-Hee John: It's a dogged answer;

Other than that, there were more Kakao Talks from classmates asking what they were doing.

It was then that Park Hyunsoo was able to recall the appointment he had made the day before.

“I forgot and just slept. But why is it marked as yesterday?”

Park Hyunsoo frowned and checked the date.

"uh? Why the 29th... … ?”

no way.

Park Hyunsoo opened a chat room.

The maximum number was only displayed as 300, but KakaoTalk seemed to have at least 500 or more.

Among them, about 100 of the oldest chats were swearing by Park Hyunsoo.

He didn't have anything to say, so he just ate it for nothing.

I thought he only slept 3 hours, but he slept over 24 hours.

It's usually said that sleeping like this gives me a headache, but why is it so refreshing?

"I do not know."

I threw my phone on the bed and went out to the living room.

“Son, I thought he was dead, but is he alive?”

“That’s it.”

“What does that mean to your son?”

“What do you mean, kid? Even bears don’t sleep that much!”

His father shouted.

Park Hyunsoo asked if it was possible after the exam was over, but he came back.

“Eat this!”

“Why are you throwing food?!”

It was a rabbit-shaped apple.

Park Hyunsoo lightly avoided the apple and headed for the refrigerator.

My father chimed in, but he ignored it because he wasn't even a day or two.

"Are not you hungry?"

“I’ll boil some ramen and eat it.”

“Mom will do it for you.”

“She is, after all, the only mother she is.”

“The sick guy.”

Dad threw another apple.

“Don’t play with your food!”

"Yes… … .”

Of course, he was quickly subdued by his mother's shouts.

* * *

Having finished eating his mother's meal, Park Hyunsoo entered the room rubbing his stomach.

Also, Mom's Bulgogi is the best.

“Kick-”

He burped lightly and laid down on the bed.

Don't lie down right after eating, but there's nothing more comfortable than lying down right after eating.

“What do you say to them?”

He grabbed his smartphone again and looked at his KakaoTalk list.I guess I'll have to take a double bath.

Still, what you did wrong is wrong, so you should be humbly cursed.

It was when Park Hyunsoo was flipping his phone.

"I'm home!"

“Welcome, son.”

“Are you here early today?”

It seemed that his younger brother Park Hyun-tae had returned.

Park Hyunsoo groaned and got up from the bed.

“Are you here?”

“When did you wake up?”

“30 minutes ago?”

“Is your brother a beast?”

“I think so.”

“I think so, this bastard!”

The father, who could not hear, threw another apple, and the mother, who could not see, put honey chestnut on his father's head.

* * *

Two years have passed.

Park Hyunsoo enlisted at the late age of 23, and finished his military service last year.

He attended a vocational school, so his graduation was completed before enlisting.

As soon as he was discharged, he got a job at the company.

It was an architectural company, but it was a company that only talked and worked on site at the same time.

There were times when he worked in Seoul, but he usually built new apartments in the countryside, so he also had to stay in the dormitory provided by the company.

“Oh, I’m tired.”

Park Hyunsoo returned home with his exhausted body.

There was no bed in the flat one-room, and it was even chilly when no one was there.

He roughly took off his clothes and took a shower first.

As he came out of the construction site, removing the old dirt, the coldness of the room approached.

“After all, I think I will live.”

It's been half a year since I became independent because of work.

The loneliness I felt at first was almost gone.

Still, when I was alone like this after work, it wasn't that I couldn't think of home.

“Would you like to call my mother?”

Three or four times a week, I called my parents to say hello and report on how they are living.

First of all, there was often a phone call.

-Uh, son~ Are you done with work?

"Yes. Now wash up and lie down.”

-rice is?

“You have to take care of it.”

-Have you eaten all the side dishes your mother sent you?

“Almost.”

- I'll have to send it back. What does my son want to eat?

“There are many things I want to eat. After all, my mother’s bulgogi?”

- Mom should try her best. other than that?

"it's okay. Rather, what is your father doing?”

- You haven't left work yet. The car is a bit stuck right now.

“What about Hyun-tae?”

- I'm in high school, you know.

“It must be difficult for him. Should I send you some pocket money?”

- What is pocket money? I can't even write because I'm studying.

“It is, too.”

-Is life okay?

“It's not like we've been talking on the phone in months. Same thing, huh?”

- Take care of your health. Call me right away if there's anything. If you are sick, go to the hospital.

“Don’t worry. Not even a kid.”

- Twenty-five years old. And even if you are over forty, you and Hyuntae are still children to your mother.

“Okay, okay. I’ve heard your voice, so I’ll stop.”

-okay. Call me again.

"Take care. I think it will be up next week. I went on a short vacation.”

-I should prepare something delicious. Okay... … Aww!

When you are about to end a call.

There was the sound of something collapsing over the receiver.

Whoop, boom boom!

It looked like something had broken and fell.

"mom? mom! mom!"

I grabbed her cell phone and hurriedly called her mother.

No answer was heard.

Soon after, a beep sound came over the handset.

“What, what?”

Anxiety surged at the sudden situation.

Park Hyunsoo looked at his phone with trembling eyes and jumped up.

I don't know what was going on, but I felt like I had to go home right away.

He got dressed and took the car keys.

He quickly left the house and got into a cheap used midsize car.

He started the engine and slammed on the accelerator straight away without looking back.

It takes at least an hour to get home from here.

Park Hyunsoo bit his lower lip.

and.

“… … What is that?”

I saw something in the back of the construction site, a large blue oval.

It was like a mirror, and it was constantly emitting an ominous, eerie energy.

What is that?

It was when Park Hyunsoo stopped his car and stared blankly at it.

Something blue oval radiated a bright light.

Something terrifying happened that shook the heavens and the earth.

The dirt road overturned and the construction site collapsed.

Park Hyunsoo looked at the unrealistic sight, and he felt the sky draw closer.

The car rose into the sky.

There, Park Hyunsoo's memory ceased.

* * *

When I woke up again, it was after everything had ended.

Park Hyunsoo woke up in a nearby hospital and learned what had happened to the world through the news.

And because it was a lucky case, he was able to hear from his family.

They looked like the agents you'd see in a movie, dressed in black suits.

“Are Park Seong-cheon and Lee Hye-young the parents?”

“… … Yes."

“Is Park Hyun-tae your younger brother?”

“Yeah, by the way.”

“… … First of all, I'm not saying don't be shocked. Be prepared and listen.”

“Wow, what are you talking about?”

“… … Park Seong-cheon and Lee Hye-young have passed away.”

"Yes?"

At first, I thought I heard it wrong, so I asked.

However, the returned answer did not change.

“Amid the global chaos called ‘Portal Impact’… … . Both are dead.”

It was the sound of the sky falling.

As usual, I was just making a light hello call.

Park Hyunsoo's eyes are dead.

The two looked at Park Hyunsoo with sad eyes.

"However… … Fortunately, I can't even say that. We have some good news.”

“… … that your parents are dead Good, good news... … .”

“Park Hyun-tae is alive. However, he has not yet regained his consciousness.”

“Tongue, is Hyeon-tae alive?”

“Unfortunately, fortunately.”

I lost my parents in one day.

But the only brother is alive.

Park Hyunsoo couldn't hold back the tears that burst out.

“This is the hospital address.”

“We’ll see you soon.”

The two handed over the location of the hospital and disappeared.

Park Hyunsoo looked at the paper with blank eyes.

His mother and father were no longer there.

His younger brother remained, but he was orphaned overnight.

In those unbelievable words, a sense of loss he had never experienced hit his chest belatedly.

"mom… … dad… … .”

Park Hyunsoo shed tears as he crumpled up the map.

I wanted to run to where my parents were right away.

A strong vertigo came over.

My eyes widened, and my vision darkened.

[Hey Hyunsoo!]

Then, the first time I heard it.

No, somewhere a familiar voice called out to him.

[Hey Hyunsoo!!]

In a sense of loss that was like a poison from the bottom, he couldn't answer the voice that was calling out.

[ Park Hyunsoo Calm down!!]who the hell are you

I lost my parents.

The only brother is said to be unconscious.

who me... … .

[Don't be like an idiot and be alert!!!]

"Ugh!"

Park Hyunsoo lifted his head.

both eyes are blurry

When I quickly wiped my eyes with my sleeve, a lot of water came out.

[The pathetic one.]

I looked back to where the voice was coming from.

There, Chungyeong was staring at him with a scary face.

"NS… … Victor?”

[What kind of dream did you have so much trouble?]

“… … A dream?”

Park Hyunsoo narrowed his eyebrows at Chungyeong's words 'dream'.

Just now, two men in black suits went and delivered the news of the family.

His parents died, and his younger brother was said to be unconscious.

It was definitely real.

It actually happened two years ago… … .

“It was two years ago.”

It's not something that just happened.

It happened two years ago, right after Portal Impact.

But why does it feel like it just happened?

[Your mischief seems to work exactly with the main disciple.]

“Kukkuk. Thanks to you, I think I'm out of that joke now."

Another voice was heard.

Looking there, an old man with rough skin was sitting on a wooden chair.

The old man said to Park Hyunsoo.

“You are lucky. He must have been destined to repeat his absolute despair for the rest of his life and not be able to escape from eternal pain. Why are you wearing something like that?”

"you… … Did you show me the past?”

“You can do that.”

“You bastard!”

[stop!]

As Park Hyunsoo couldn't stand it and rushed to the old man, Chungyeong stood in his way.

“Get out of here! I think I'll have to hit and kill that trash bastard to get my job done!"

[Don't be eaten by anger.]

“Sometimes you need anger!”

[I totally agree, but not now. This is his space, and he seems to be playing with his emotions. If you recklessly express intuitive emotions such as anger, you will be eaten.]

“Kukkuk. I don't know what the hell he's doing, but it's gotten really annoying. Thanks to you, even the last arrangement I left has evaporated in vain. This is it, Won.”

[I'm sorry. The variable called the main seat ruined your plan.]

“Anyway, because of him, Knight, my first plans were put to nothing, but I thought the last chance had arrived.”

Park Hyunsoo asked the word ‘night’.

"Night?"

“You fought yourself, but you don’t know who you are?”

“Are you fighting directly with me?”

“You also have the sword he used.”

Is he a knight?

“Well, you might not know. Because he didn't even say he was a knight.”

[What does he have to do with your plans?]

“Are you going to say that with my mouth?”

[Usually it is.]
