Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint (Web Novel KR) Chapter 276

After the Demon King Selection, the Yoo Jonghyuk – Kim Dokja Industrial Complex became busy with reconstruction. The citizens' expressions were dark from the dangers of war. The atmosphere would've been harsher if it wasn't for the relief resources that I persuaded Bihyung to give.

“The clock tower is over there! Hey, watch out over there!”

Due to the deaths of the dukes, the citizens of other industrial complexes came over and I wasn't lacking manpower. I spent two days helping the citizens rebuild and the city was gradually regaining a lively atmosphere.

“Thank you for the help, Yoo Sangah-ssi.”

The foundation reconstruction would've taken a longer time if it wasn't for Yoo Sangah's Arachne's Web. Yoo Sangah wiped the sweat off her forehead and replied, “You should take a break Dokjssi.”

“I'm fine. What about Yoo Sangah-ssi?”

Yoo Sangah looked closely at the bandage wrapped around my chest while answering, “I'm good as well.”

Good… It was a word used by Yoo Sangah.

I stopped working as I climbed up the clock tower with Yoo Sangah and looked down at the square.

Yoo Jonghyuk and the other seriously injured party members were hospitalized in Aileen's ward. Jung Heewon and Lee Jihye were relatively well and helped with the reconstruction of the industrial complex. Meanwhile, Lee Hyunsung was demanding to be discharged from the ward because he was all better.

Thanks to the hard work over the past two days, the square area started to feel like a place where people lived. The schedule was tight but the things I were doing now would be returned to me as a reward.

“They came.”

A portal had appeared in the air. There was a kid running at great speed from one side of the square.

I lightly jumped down the clock tower and greeted him.

“Dokja hyung! Uwaaaaah!” Lee Gilyoung struggled in my arms. I smiled and patted his head.

“Have you been well? You seem a bit taller.”

“Really?”

“Yes, you're almost around Yoosung's height now?”

“I'll be bigger soon!”

It wasn't just Lee Gilyoung who came through the portal. A large man fell to the floor of the square with a thud.

“It has been a long time, Gong Pildu-ssi.”

“Bah!” Gong Pildu stared at me like he didn't care about my safety and then waved to Yoo Sangah. Yoo Sangah bowed her head with a slight smile and Gong Pildu spoke in a slightly more relaxed tone. “I didn't come to see you.”

During this time, Gong Pildu had changed a lot. Who could call him one of the 10 Evils now?

“Han Sooyoung?”

“I think she needs some time to recuperate.” Lee Gilyoung answered with his head against my stomach.

Recuperate… She had offered the Abyss Stones as a sacrifice but the damage wouldn't be small because she took the black dragon into her body. However, to not come here…

“Ah, Sooyoung noona told me to give this to you.” Lee Gilyoung rummaged through his pockets and handed me a note.

It was a crumpled piece of paper that gave off an obstinate impression similar to Han Sooyoung. I carefully opened the note while avoiding Lee Gilyoung's glistening eyes.

-I will kill you if you make me do it again next time.

I couldn't help laughing. Indeed, there was a reason she hadn't come. If I closed my eyes, I could still see the bandaged Han Sooyoung laughing like crazy.
