Trash of the Count's Family

It was everyone's victory.

The moment this victory was finally achieved was silent.

Nobody could dare to open their mouths. They could only look at the yellow monster that had burnt to death.

The people who had been running across the shelter walls…

The people who had been swinging their swords and spears outside the shelter walls…

The people who had been preparing to cast more long-distance attacks…

Everybody was looking at the battlefield without making a sound.

The last few days flew through their minds as if they were watching a movie.

The memories weren’t just a blur; their hearts were beating wildly the more they thought about everything that had happened.

And as their emotions were stirring up so much that they were about to shout…

One person quickly started to speak.

“Finally, the unranked monster has fallen and we…”

It was Lee Seung Won.

He remembered the Commander’s orders to record everything and barely managed to speak.

Finally.

We.

“The humans have won.”

The moment those words were recorded…

People could finally release everything they had pent up inside at this victory that could have been their first victory in a long while or their first victory at all in this post-apocalyptic world.

Woooooooooooooooo--

Waaaaaaaaah---!

Some were shouting with joy while others were crying.

They were all showing emotions in different ways.

“…The fog is disappearing.”

“…It’s the sun.”

The fog started to disappear and the sun slowly became visible, as if it was congratulating them for their victory as well.

It was a cold November day but it was slowly getting warmer with the sun.

That warmth was letting them realize even more that this was real.

Lee Jin Joo started to speak.

Her Amplification ability echoed throughout the area around the Seomyeon shelter.

{We have won.}

The joyful news was spread everywhere.

{The unranked monster is dea-}

But she suddenly had to stop.

{Rok-!}

She quickly covered her mouth.

She barely managed to stop herself from shouting out the name as she even forgot that her voice was being amplified for a moment.

“Hyung!”

“Shit!”

Kim Min Joon and Lee Seung Won stood up in shock.

Park Jin Tae was holding onto the railing without being able to say anything.

They were all looking at the same spot.

They were looking at the person who was standing in front of the large yellow monster.

Kim Rok Soo.

He was slowly starting to fall.

Lee Jin Joo barely managed to open her mouth.

She needed to inform the people who were waiting for her to deliver the news.

{The unranked monster is dead.}

But she did not tell them about their commander who was starting to fall.

The cheering on the battlefield had disappeared.

Lee Jin Joo could see someone grabbing their commander who was about to fall.

“Rok Soo!”

Lee Soo Hyuk urgently called out to Cale who was weakly falling over. He then raised his head and looked at the person supporting Cale before starting to speak again.

“Han.”

Choi Han was supporting Cale and quietly looking at his pale face as Cale closed his eyes.

He then raised his head.

Kim Min Ah, Bae Puh Rum, Jo Min Yeh, Jae Ha-Jung and some other people were running toward them.

Choi Han started to say something to Lee Soo Hyuk before they arrived.

“It looks like our time to head back to our world is coming up.”

Lee Soo Hyuk's gaze sunk down.
