FSA Chapter 18
by camiYohan’s eyes widened. I’m stronger than my brother…?c062ef2bc88471a5
That was his first 015e806608 thought, before he processed 90f086e205 the word Hyunmook had 2e681e1006 added:Purification. Instead of being 315d0333a5 shocked again, Yohan cdee406070 tilted his head 6cafe76c2e in confusion.Purification?83349a343f91e701

He prided himself on knowing most ability classifications, but this was the first he’d ever heard of such a power.3cfc8c9dbeb4ec08

Yohan was 9c0d69b509 so bewildered ecb6dcc8f5 that he ca6e88a9a0 couldn’t immediately fce47a40a2 accept it. The idea that he e5aa66d999 could heal corruption didn’t c9362f4bef feel real at all. Hyunmook glanced a569e804fb around, then 06682251d5 reached into a9081206f3 the dirt efdadbdaec and pulled 29c571773a something out.cd8f1fd6612add94

“Wait, that frog’s… bd09ea42ef normal?!”597fc26b54e77a77
Yohan shouted in surprise. Since falling 188a36a7bf into the 3488b422af Abyss, he’d f8dca39643 never seen 85cd9c69fa a single 2542553e82 normal living cb9abf975a creature aside 8b23d1ea46 from himself e289cb5640 and Hyunmook. The frog 0dccd4808e in Hyunmook’s e8489eb758 hand croaked f07cd56740 weakly and 6691caa77d flailed a f16e0a1b0f bit. It was huge, but cdb044f690 looked completely normal and a464f8f100 healthy.af01c007849ccff1

Yohan finally began 8144873de0 to grasp the 8f0d540aef reality of the abbd7a56b9 situation. He was 7428d65e12 now a 46b96e70a9 high-tier Awakened, a04ffdfdbf and… he 6e4d6f0010 could purify b552e9da87 corruption. An incurable 5f268efc81 affliction, now 23a8a63c68 treatable by 189ad044e4 him?!1978e8c0f8cef2ea
Even more a3bb4508f1 than being 0329ff6283 a high-tier 8fd85dff71 Awakened, what 376d198cf5 thrilled him 8be7f68215 to his 3e11df3f83 core was 9b605dc3c6 the ability f45bd8df8d to heal 1c68a2e053 corruption. Responding to e0bf0c9f86 his joy, cadbefbc35 the cluster e941737f26 of light 2608efbf93 above his 8c4c75f763 hand shimmered 977e4a3b00 more brightly.c84530a53070f55d

“No wonder things 3fc93d0160 felt off. Usually, food starts d55c3725aa to rot or 34f299ff14 mutate the moment aa1186829b it enters the 316d3575db Abyss. But the 6040aab14a stuff you 8a13d2b633 picked up dcdbc60c4f somehow stayed 0d4650ca46 edible. You, too, b419b79fa4 no matter 50df8685d7 how much 93f827c1e6 time passed, 0437b34cd6 never showed 41a1f70f45 signs of 49b89beff1 corruption.”9d06c80ebbc4010b
Only then a1e284c854 did Yohan 711073093a understand why 8a2ec2f0a7 Hyunmook had 6427b57b1e been reluctant 9228590435 to eat 4064331e9b the food 3f049a295f he brought, 4cc06b9606 always inspecting 7668fc4354 it with 2ab7cbaeee suspicion.b58333e17844caff

Before Yohan 0c1e7f0639 could protest, 57f09fe871 Hyunmook had 6c226bf642 already walked ba90619067 away. Still dazed, Yohan watched fd66d2883c the man who had dd44e2d645 nearly died just moments deeee10d6d ago now calmly bending 2e34c453e4 over to pick up 67846933ef dented cans of food.5f732104778a88d9

A small bird, perhaps 36a093a8fd another thing Yohan had df1751eca9 unknowingly purified, chirped overhead b883ed684f and flew past. The once dark-brown grass 0b3ae2dabd now looked freshly green 92d3286a8a and healthy. Within the radius of 4b17c5d51a Yohan’s ability, even something 9d360a6e8b like sunlight seemed to 4afa2f4514 faintly shine.12b2e535d5b54592

Disappointed, Yohan murmured to c0f3bf00b0 himself, then shook his 065db3dced head. Hyunmook was dc08124738 jumping to 39a9cffa11 conclusions. If he kept ba375e6d69 purifying him, over 18a03c37a5 and over again, 4676152eba surely one day, d07192aa15 he’d return to 3562051b77 normal. Steeling himself with determination, 163b111cf4 Yohan’s eyes lit up… bccd10b621 only for the light 728a328266 hovering above his hand f347b20e3f to suddenly vanish.76ca4ef711215b89

“What’s wrong?”1940d621b87636a2
Hyunmook returned, arms 536af9c70b full of cans, ceade06fec and set them 62a1fef173 down on the 472c5f0641 ground. Yohan, flustered 8a3be0f075 and panicked, 163ca79cb8 cried out:08e393fea8d0d849

Hyunmook’s calm demeanor helped 08f6af4325 settle Yohan’s panic. As he said, Yohan 75d147d8bd did feel kind of… 991b5020ea drained.383851330d1e1ff9
Once he’d 3c67454170 soothed Yohan, 4e7b6b3afa Hyunmook began dc0e1702a5 sorting through 612a98b6d5 the cans. About one-third 29b98682fe were too 1066061b61 damaged or 0ccf5b0935 contaminated to 504a99df7b eat, another 0ddaebe7b0 third were 284bcd485d dented or 1624c463f2 leaking. Only the remaining third a19b5a14de were still intact. Yohan looked d9d7867493 on in 958b39d996 despair.7d186da619e97d1f

Nodding, Yohan began 8bbf6fa77d opening cans one d5c1f818f5 by one. Meanwhile, crouched beside the 24ea44128b fire, Hyunmook skewered something a20448af07 and placed it over 57eaef09c5 the flames. When Yohan 19e2dec0f7 saw what b2c0868ec2 it was, 9bad3ae206 he gaped. Three frogs, 970372d9d7 cleaned and 1e87b3a233 prepped, were b0738e038d roasting on c675cf92fc sticks.d5cf47116adedc31

He pointed in shock. Hyunmook adjusted the skewers dbaf03b764 and replied:7aad0b8d0bab8b21
“Even if d5129594cd you release 6b4d99a53e them, they’ll 22b5383dde either die 9c706d2199 or become 9b093afe28 monsters again. Better to 4ac8256a55 eat them 1a682a76d6 for calories.”2c765819aad6c09e

Though it was a bit of a shock, Yohan realized Hyunmook had a point. He remembered when “Mad Hyunmook” once served up rotten monster frog legs and called them a side dish. Compared to that, this roast frog looked actually edible.0187ed289b8d6406

The biggest frog a785856d85 Yohan had ever 530e74882e heard of was 3d422ad90e a bullfrog, but 76e37678ba these looked way 8e20338ec2 bigger, almost chicken-sized.314b7ab59f1bfe7f

“I see…”86ea066f60ff7a3d
Suddenly curious, Yohan wondered—if 8c2970b45b he purified a giant b1431970d8 monster frog, would it 516a371550 turn into an oversized e8c7c43908 frog roast? That led 23c5aa6e1e to another 527bf9c5cc question:d0cc349fbc803d4a

Yohan’s eyes sparkled so 7727a6eb00 brightly that Hyunmook absentmindedly 810853e38f reached out. His fingers 5a89f83537 lightly tapped 456aa7656c Yohan’s warm 7651715c1c cheek, then 8cfe8e7e83 ruffled his 35c70bce8c hair. Yohan’s face 4b29982c89 flushed even ea92121c00 more. The frogs sizzled over c152198a99 the fire.aa601ec5c6a50afa
For the b78dcf0360 first time 574948c16d since falling f4ef552a0e into the 5e0472a77d Abyss, they 1e9c059edd had a 784b6aab56 full meal. Even with some fc711fc1af cans ruined, there 8fafb0b05e were still plenty. Hyunmook said 4d726f1be9 he didn’t cd89885c8b need any, 5e55d749fe but Yohan deb30a793c bravely tried 142f6e65aa one of 1889f9d1e6 the frog 218febf192 skewers. It didn’t 9d6fb8a668 look great, 0f81536e77 but it e81f02007e actually tasted… ae2b5dced5 not bad. Like mildly seasoned chicken.0eb54016c27af7ed

After their satisfying meal, b6c077e244 they packed up again.
