How Will They Cross The River?
"He looks like he can't even move on his own," Haru commented looking at Jung-hyuk through the screen as he was being carried by Dok-ja.
And currently, they were on their way to…
"Cheol-do, huh," Zenobia nodded as Haru muttered that, there was no need for her to hear his thought to know the conclusion he had reached.
There were only a few people in Seoul who could incapacitate Jung-hyuk, and all of them weren't near him at the time.
"The meteor is involved once again," Haru spoke with a frown.
'Could it be that the Disaster is already out of the meteor? No wouldn't the Dokkaebi at least give us a heads-up? That didn't happen before as well, hmm…' Haru thought as that seemed like a plausible reason for this but…
"Zenobia, how much do you know about the leader of the Cheol-Do group?" Haru asked and Zenobia was quick to answer since it was very simple.
"From what I have heard of him from Queresha, she shouldn't be strong enough to hurt him but," Zenobia didn't know if she should include it since it was just her instinct.
"You think she still has a chance?" Haru asked and Zenobia nodded.
"If she catches him off guard then it is possible since she is a poison user, But that doesn't seem too plausible unless he lets his guard down," Haru thought of Jung-hyuk as Zenobia said that.
According to his observation, that man was always on guard, like he was walking on eggshells around everyone. So, it wouldn't make sense for him to let down his guard unless…
"Interesting," Haru muttered and Zenobia blinked but he shook his head.
"There is a chance that the Disaster still hasn't been freed, honestly it is still fifty-fifty since I don't know how they will handle it," Zenobia nodded at his words as he continued, "But it isn't good to leave this thing on chance, if the Disasters are really the main point for the next scenario, then there is no way the Dokkaebis will be happy if things derail too much."

Not paying much attention to the constellations Haru looked at Zenobia after he was done with re-planning his next course of action.
"Where is Hae-in right now?" He asked.
"She is near… Dong-ho Bridge in Geum-ho," Zenobia said after checking on the phone and…
"Did she tell anything about how she was about to cross the river?" Haru asked since nearly all of the bridges across the Han River were broken by the Ichthyosaurs who were in the river.
Hearing this Zenobia quickly used one of the drones to check what was happening and what they saw was just as shocking as they had foresaw in their minds.
They saw Hae-in crossing the Han River which was 1 kilometer wide, her method?
She was using the heads of the ichthyosaurs as skipping stones as she bolted across at top speed.
And as if that wasn't enough….
"I can hear her screams even if there is no voice," Haru felt bad for Sang-ah who was carried by Hae-in as she did her fancy acrobatic moves to dodge or kill a monster that came too close.
And….
[The Constellation 'Secretive Plotter' is watching closely.]
[The Constellation 'Prisoner of The Golden Headband' can't stop laughing at the poor monsters.]
[The Constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' is writing it down in his secret 'How to act cool while destroying your enemy vol. 3']

"Then I'll go and meet her," Haru knew that there was no time to waste, his plan to go to Cheon-do tomorrow morning had to be done now.
"Alright, do you need me to prepare something?" Zenobia asked and Haru shook his head.
"I don't think I'll spend a lot of time there, so there is no need," Haru just wanted to go and confirm what was happening in Cheon-do and then was about to come back, he didn't even think it would take him a lot of time but…
"You should still take some food with you, the situation can change," Zenobia said and…
"Well, sure," He knew that Zenobia will not let him go without food and necessities even if he tried.
"I'll meet you at the front door in 5 minutes," With that Zenobia quickly left the room and…
"What happened? Zenobia Unnie seems in a rush?" Jin-ah came in through the door.
"I am going to meet Hae-in she had most likely already crossed the river and is on her way here," Haru said and Jin-ah understood.
"You are leaving for Cheon-do right?" Haru nodded and Jin-ah sighed.
"I want to come along as well but I'll pass this time," But hearing this made Haru narrow his eyes.
"…What did you do Jin-ah?"
"I don't know what you are talking about," Jin-ah said and Haru had a lot to say since he could feel something was up.
"I'll talk to you about it later," Haru said as he left the room and Jin-ah sighed in relief.
'Well, this might be fun,' Jin-ah smirked a little but she was sure that she will be in trouble later, 'Well, he is never really angry so it is fine.'
Outside of the apartment complex that Zenobia's group settled down in, there were three people standing in front of Pil-du, he had a frown on his face because...
'I know the kid and the woman who is on the ground, but who is she?' Pil-du thought looking at the three, and he just had a really bad feeling about the third person, but just as he was about to speak.
"Oh, you three made it," He heard a voice that made him want to run away from the post but it wasn't like he could actually do that, anyway it didn't look like he was coming here to talk to him.
"Sang-ah what happened to you?" Haru asked as he saw Sang-ah look like she was about to vomit along with, "And, Why do you look so happy Gil-young?"
"It was the way we crossed the Han River," Both Sang-ah and Gil-young said the same words but the contrast between their words was too much with Sang-ah looking troubled and Gil-young being excited.
"Oh I see, you should go ahead and rest," Haru said to Sang-ah who smiled weakly. She never wanted to do that thing again even if it killed her.
'I felt like my insides were stirred around,' Sang-ah really felt that way since this felt like the most insane roll coaster ride she had ever been on, Gil-young on the other hand enjoyed it, a little too much for that matter.
Anyway, that wasn't the main point for them right now but…
"Haru I brought the supplies," Zenobia came and handed Haru a bag that was filled to the brim.
"Are we leaving right now?" Hae-in asked and Haru nodded.
"Something came up," Hae-in didn't ask any more questions and was ready to leave at the drop of a hat but…
"Would it be possible if I tag along as well?" Sang-ah asked as she stood up calming herself.
'This is the reason you came here, you need to get yourself together,' Sang-ah thought to herself as she tried to ignore the nausea but it didn't really work since he nearly fell down, nearly because Hae-in who was near her caught her before that happened.
"You should rest for now, and you don't need to worry too much," Hae-in said and Sang-ah could only nod, the situation seemed serious and if she tried to be selfish now it would only be bad for them.
Not to mention that she might put them in possible danger.
But it wasn't her alone that wanted to go.
"I want to go to Dok-ja," Gil-young said and…
"Kid did you forget about your promise," But Hae-in spoke to him and…
"...Fine," Gil-young looked reluctant but he accepted in an instant.
"Ok Haru, let's go," Hae-in looked at Haru with a smile after noticing his gaze.
And like that the two left for Cheon-do.
"Did you guys tell everyone about what happened in Gwang-hwamun?" Haru asked as they were running and…
"Of course, they were about to find out about it sooner or later, so we saw no point in hiding it," Hae-in shrugged and Haru nodded.
"Is that why you brought those two over specifically?"
