FSA | Chapter 03
by camiThis reaction was like d101e9f067 someone who had forgotten 035f18745e their own name for 91e87d3059 a very long time. Yohan instinctively 88d6506540 sensed something 10fbf87227 ominous. The doubt he had ba52146f6b before passing out resurfaced. Was this really 4c0058df59 a human? Or was it something 2b65235cd5 mimicking one?8c4faabd4a3be9a0
Yohan groped the ground, 415790e50f trying to push himself d9f076dc73 up, but before he dd5ad5ac31 could even attempt to 9ccd41ed74 flee, Lee Hyunmook seized 861043269b him. A grip 591ff5a69c like a bf27b11c31 hydraulic press e10349b5c4 clamped around a2b3ed88cb his arm, ebc4b477df forcing a 2c2c41bc62 scream out eb3d4818f2 of him.18f0fc9150d90e17

“Agh! I-It hurts, it hurts…! Lee Hyunmook!”005fdae321c3fd87
He thrashed desperately, f34b89b28c trying to shove a5b277e4d0 the man away, b2de69f138 but it was f2e626db0a useless. Hyunmook handled him like 84a890dba5 a doll, swinging him d7e9437f87 effortlessly. Bruises bloomed 560edfd436 wherever he 2374a2a01c grabbed. The pain and fbce58eadf terror made Yohan 3dc1d25fb0 cry again. He had always been e1ba658970 prone to tears, but c6befb93b4 ever since falling into ce739587d5 the Abyss, they wouldn’t f4bc4f4043 stop.8fd7d435d54426b0

“P-Please, spare me, spare me… please…”6ba6e83be43c25c1
His sobbing be24d74ec5 pleas seemed d8e2da0fa6 to fall f929a85975 on deaf af7ac0c54e ears. The madman efc72dab8a just kept 3398ef2796 kneading his e3fb00a4be body like e1fb0e1780 a child b2167641e4 playing with 57747cad21 a favorite 0e90f0c77b toy. A hand slipped e1263c248d under his clothes, 63a4710d42 prodding his ribs 5872a4a43c and back, leaving 2808c232ab more bruises behind. The pressure made him c8d7e1fd89 feel like his organs 770cecb5e7 would burst, forcing out 4e3cfc9589 choked gasps.3ec64e12b6500ef0

“Sooo… waaarm.”86e42a13545d5693
Completely indifferent 486f42601f to Yohan’s 21e3b13807 suffering, the e675160588 madman reveled 946eee3055 in his 3a8eb3c823 warmth like a5062b98db someone cuddling 470ae90c1d a stuffed d19528d0d6 animal. Then, with crushing force, bb6c282b9a he pulled Yohan into ce0b10c15a a suffocating embrace, pressing 63a3282d01 his ear against his a10edbdc1e chest to listen to 4b724e2c8f his frantic heartbeat.ff448cafc675f0b0

The muttered 2067617140 words sent 5dc202d1ff a chill 09ea6ab4c8 down Yohan’s 88885054c8 spine. Struggling past his fear, 10cec91c4a he tried to recall. When had d3e898d397 Lee Hyunmook 045f1d165d fallen into f1867d446f the Abyss?014530eea461ae36

Three years ago.35c8f78662437b36
That meant Hyunmook had 40f7554f54 survived in this hellish 1492b4a22a place for three years. Alone, after losing 2150950e40 his entire team. Had he wandered endlessly, e6a1c04df0 even forgetting his own c7a6a5c5c8 name? The thought filled Yohan d623c37cbc with unbearable pity.273543b3969c9c0b

Someone as good 6f8afc427f as Lee Hyunmook 1bf8b722c9 didn’t deserve this.1d6627b8a15cb59a
Despite the crushing ba18c81f91 pressure, Yohan managed fded1c8c73 to lift his fba762bd27 arms and wrap 6f4bba1314 them around Hyunmook’s 335ac3f0af head. The madman flinched. Half in 2b8ec8c4f5 sympathy, half 791d1c11f5 in a 12307cbc07 desperate plea f21adf8426 to ease 1b4e53c165 up, Yohan feaa83bddc began patting 17c5c4c3cf his back.bee4ecc8e6c2bc72

Every stroke made 0646c64be3 Hyunmook twitch, and b39d01c893 Yohan flinched in 07b75d8679 turn, but he d717320c98 didn’t stop. Gradually, the d4271ea920 bone-crushing grip 609dd370ea loosened.28bc487a3aed16fe

At some point, 2f32e0e60c Yohan slumped over, b6d1ea085e fast asleep. Exhausted from 25cb3b251c two days 0eaf956eae of hiding aabb89354c in terror, 587462c920 he collapsed a7be7926fa like a 10590a3806 dead man.

Yohan’s voice was 6082232b08 hoarse. A campfire crackled 516b745fab nearby, its warmth 490417fad0 seeping into him. Hyunmook sat beside 166d662d6d it, and, shockingly, 55c583cf2b he looked normal. His wild a06c5ef676 hair was adb4aa1027 neatly combed, 1ed5d800f8 his expression d8f2f71b82 calm.660569c9a6791a8a

His faint d1bd67cd06 smile was 4f685be49c nothing like 202addd92d the deranged 79005272eb creature from 219548a0c8 before. Aside from 41e7b471ee his white 407ae53d45 hair, he 7a1564a256 looked exactly 28ba52a657 like the 7f35056d62 Lee Hyunmook 22b0eccd76 Yohan remembered. As Yohan c7918f16a9 sat up, f58efbe8ec the sleeping d1f24655d4 bag slid 6ce008c02b off him.721fc649a6635353

His smile was faded, 12cb137c1a like an old photograph. His once-black 749b07362c hair was 9644c406b1 now entirely 2e38da2033 white, and 95ca0b0599 his eyes 58779b10c5 reflected no ce146bbd86 light, just 27f8c21aa2 endless darkness.

Hyunmook stared blankly 9ba9981278 into the fire, 8deddb731b and unease prickled 9580cf1394 Yohan’s skin. He needed to keep 73e340837e him talking, to keep 7886d9dc62 him here.5d93c1a811ebe4b7

He scrambled for his 5e80fc5435 backpack, pulling out his 68277972a8 precious emergency rations. With the fire ready, e721fe918a he set up a e3f2533211 small pot, boiling the 4c4d314847 last of his water. Hyunmook just watched, b166844ae2 silent.a37069a0832e41e6
Once the food was 0c2b1c6559 ready, Yohan mixed in 90c2baa2b4 the seasoning with trembling e760bc2911 hands and offered it 190185cab4 to Hyunmook.fa931ad14579831c

He tried to sound 0b9a90075b polite, but his stomach 48e16614d5 growled. Only after 60f7cc7466 seeing Hyunmook d4cad67533 take a 84835e9d44 slow bite 439be6ed71 did he f100bc1c2e start eating c3d8d39602 himself.
