I left Aileen, Mark and Jang Hayoung to clean up outside and dragged the unconscious Han Myungoh back to the office.
To be honest, it was a revelation. I never thought Han Myungoh would still be alive.
Department Head Han Myungoh. Before we reached the third scenario, he was cursed by Demon King Asmodeus after killing the dark keeper. I thought he had died before I entered Chungmuro and hadn't expected to meet him in the Demon World.
I placed Han Myungoh on a chair in the meeting room. I used a story suppressor that I had borrowed from Aileen.
「 Kim Dokja thought: The department head has aged a lot. 」
There were many small wrinkles on Han Myungoh's face. Moreover, his whole skin was blackened. Putting aside the wrinkles, the skin discolouration was a sign of a species variation. The longer I looked, the more I could see the old face. Still, many human traces were missing and it was hard to know without looking closely.
Yoo Sangah. Lee Gilyoung. My mother and Song Minwoo… They were the people I couldn't confirm using Character List.
All of them were people who were involved with me before the scenario or at the start of the scenario. Han Myungoh was also one of them. They survived in this world because of me. That's why I couldn't read their information with Character List.
“I know you're awake so get up.”
“Uhh… you…”
Han Myungoh… I asked the spy, no, the self-styled Aurelius. “Aurelius. Did you pick the name personally?”
Han Myungoh opened his eyes and I was filled with a vague feeling of certainty. Aurelius. This was the decisive clue that convinced me this person was Han Myungoh.
「 A web novel? Hey Kim Dokjssi. How much time do you have to read this shit? 」
During my days at Mino Soft, I had heard these words after I was caught reading a web novel.
「 If you are going to read a book then you should read something like this. Read a good book if you want to build up your specs. 」
Han Myungoh was holding the book called 'Meditations', written by Marcus Aurelius. The first few pages of the book were completely discoloured…
“You usually carried the Meditations book that you can't read. Your bluffing still remains.”
“W-Who the hell are you?”
Han Myungoh didn't recognize me at all. It was because I changed my face ahead of time. If I hadn't done that, I might be the one to fall into the trap.
I smirked and asked, “Who do you think?”
At this moment, something flashed through Han Myungoh's eyes.
“D-Don't tell me…!”
As expected, Han Myungoh was Han Myungoh. Even the parachute department head needed to do some work to survive. I quietly brought a finger to Han Myungoh's lips that were opening.
