They said regeneration weakens with corruption, but he was still a high-level awakener. He wouldn’t die from just any injury. Logically, Yohan thought maybe he should run away from the now-mad Lee Hyunmook. But his heart wouldn’t let him. What moved him wasn’t fear, it was deep sympathy and gratitude toward Lee Hyunmook. Yohan cried not because he was scared, but because he was overwhelmed by emotion for Lee Hyunmook. That was how he finally reached him. “Hic… huuh….” Then he…- 297.5 K • Completed
- Yohan’s eyes widened. I’m a stronger awakener than my brother?That was his first thought, then he belatedly processed the word Lee Hyunmook had added: purification. Instead of being surprised again, he tilted his head in confusion. Purification? He prided himself on knowing all the classification types for awakeners, but this was the first time he’d heard of such an ability. “You can cure corruption.” Stunned, Yohan couldn’t accept Lee Hyunmook’s words right away. The idea that he could…

- Yohan’s timid heart shrank, even though Lee Hyunmook hadn’t used a threatening tone at all. Hunching his shoulders, he bit his lip and slowly pulled off his shirt. The last time Lee Hyunmook treated the wound on his leg, he’d shown no mercy no matter how much Yohan cried or screamed. Now, imagining him taking the same approach to carve out some corrupted flesh on his back, Yohan was already in tears. Sniffling, he removed his pants too, curling up in just his underwear. The Abyss was cold, and he…

- “This area’s just barely overlapping with part of the Korean zone.” At Lee Hyunmook’s words, Yohan let out a belated sigh of realization. “Now that I think about it, all the places that were ripped away from the world must’ve ended up here in the Abyss.” Since the Rift Disaster, Earth had slowly been devoured by rifts and the Abyss, leaving fewer and fewer places livable. Rifts tended to open in areas with high human activity, often in cities, but occasionally included massive…

- Although he was said to be in a weaker category than dealers or tanks, Yohan was still a high-level awakener, and his broken arm healed completely in less than a week. When he cautiously unwrapped the splint and tested his arm, there was no more pain. Before setting off, Yohan packed several days’ worth of food and medicine into his backpack. Just as he stepped out the front door, Lee Hyunmook pointed to the old cart he had brought back from the supermarket and asked casually, “Want me to push you…

- Before he knew it, a warm tongue and lips were lapping at the nape of his neck. Struggling desperately, Yohan barely managed to break free, and Lee Hyunmook licked his lips. The look in his eyes wasn’t just hunger, it carried a deep, bottomless longing. Yohan shrank under the weight of that overwhelming emotion. “Why are you doing this? I really don’t taste good…” When Lee Hyunmook stood, staring intently at him, Yohan, already on edge, screamed. He bolted outside on instinct, and when he…

- “Get on.” “…Sorry?” Yohan, his backpack strapped on tightly, blinked in confusion. Lee Hyunmook slung his own backpack around to the front and gestured. “You’re too slow. This won’t do.” “W-Will you be okay? That’s going to be way too heavy…” Yohan asked, genuinely concerned. Carrying him would mean Lee Hyunmook was shouldering the weight of a full-grown man and two fully packed backpacks. Hearing that, Lee Hyunmook let out his first audible laugh. Yohan stared at…

- Wasn’t the first subway barely enough to fill half the tunnel? But now, it looked like it filled nearly two-thirds. He couldn’t tell when it had gotten so big. Paaaang! The sound of it barreling toward them was deafening. Lee Hyunmook, who had been staring sharply at the subway, gauged the distance between the wall and the subway, then leapt. Yohan’s arms, wrapped tightly around Lee Hyunmook’s neck, tensed. Lee Hyunmook climbed using the grooves in the wall and hung from the ceiling.…

- Yohan’s face turned pale. Red Heads were one of the few types of monsters that appeared consistently all over the world, despite their many abnormal and grotesque forms. They always appeared near medical facilities, and their most distinct feature was their heads, which resembled the red sirens on ambulances. Because of this, some claimed that they were mutated forms of creatures that once lived near hospitals, warped by impressions left in their memories. WEE-OOH WEE-OOH— As the monsters watched…

- ‘Anyway… I really need to pee.’ Yohan could no longer hold it in and stood up. The moment he moved, Lee Hyunmook, who had ignored both his awakening and being called, immediately reacted and turned around. Yohan respectfully addressed the mad hero staring at him with dazed eyes. “Um, I just need to take care of something. Is it… okay if I go?” Hyunmook only stared blankly, saying nothing. Corruption often came with mental illness, but thankfully, Hyunmook’s symptoms didn’t…
