I Alone Resurrect Chapter 209
Tokyo (3)
The shelter where refugees had gathered became quite chaotic after Danto was defeated by Kang Hyeon.
It was true that Danto was a trash who fed people porridge while cutting steak and drinking wine for himself. Nevertheless, it was also true that Danto was the focal point of this place. This was because the refugees believed that they were under the protection of the undead because of Danto’s presence.
In a situation where Danto had been captured and all the undead who were protecting them had been killed, people felt more anxiety than a sense of liberation.
“We need to leave right now!”
“…”
As a result, no one wanted to leave this last sanctuary.
Kang Hyeon let out a deep sigh at their frustrating behavior.
“Listen up, everyone. We’ll escort you, so you need to leave Tokyo right now. Otherwise, you’ll all die here!”
“B-but there are tons of undead outside! We’ll die if we go out!”
“You’ll die if you stay here too!”
People were engulfed in anxiety at Kang Hyeon’s words.
“Isn’t this all your fault in the first place!?”
“What?”
“If you hadn’t captured Danto and killed all the undead protecting this place, this wouldn’t have happened!”
“That’s right! We’re all going to die because of this Korean who suddenly appeared.”
“At least release Danto!”
In fact, the refugees were already dying even before Kang Hyeon arrived.
Unsanitary conditions.
Insufficient nutrition.
Extreme stress.
They were just surviving day by day, living a life like a candle that could go out at any moment.
But at least they didn’t feel an immediate threat to their lives.
‘If we go outside, we’ll die…’
‘It’s impossible to escape Tokyo while protecting hundreds of people with just three people.’
Those who had been conditioned to this situation no longer tried to take active measures.
Although some people knew they had been saved because of Kang Hyeon, they kept their heads down due to the hostile atmosphere around them.
“Heh. Look at this. A little fish shows up and turns everything upside down.”
Danto, still tied with ropes, wore a bitter smile while watching the scene.
“Shut up.”
Kang Hyeon mercilessly slapped Danto’s cheek.
“Kuhuk!”
Instantly, a red mark appeared on Danto’s cheek, and teeth fell out along with a handful of blood.
People closed their mouths and watched Kang Hyeon’s reaction to this violent scene.
“Fine. Do as you wish.”
After trying to persuade people for over a day, Kang Hyeon had now decided to give up.
“Those who want to stay and die here, or blame me, do as you wish. Those who want to leave, raise your hand. This is the last chance. Don’t hesitate, raise your hands.”
People’s eyes started darting around quickly.
Raising a hand here would mean going against the will of their group.
Japan is famous for being extremely individualistic and not wanting to cause harm to others.
But underlying this was a ‘collectivism’ that transcends everything.
The will of the group. The world’s gaze.
What is called ‘Seken’ was something unimaginable for most Japanese to go against.
This characteristic was making them hesitate even in a situation where their lives were at stake.
“Oh, these frustrating people.”
At that moment, something caught Kang Hyeon’s magical detection.
“It’s already too late.”
Miho Kulsa, who was scheduled to arrive today.
It seemed he was approaching this place.
“Shin Seong-ah. Yoon Na-rae. Prepare for battle. It’s not just one or two. We’ve been discovered.”
“Yes.”
He didn’t expect the enemy to come alone in the first place.
Tokyo was already the land of the undead.
It was well within the expected range that they would hear about what happened in this shelter.
“W-what is that!?”
“It’s the undead! We need to run!”
“No, maybe they’ve come to save us!”
“Really…?”
Seeing people still spouting nonsense in this situation, Kang Hyeon chuckled.
“I don’t know either, now.”

“Please, spare us! We have done nothing wrong!”
A man rushed frantically towards the undead.
The man knelt before the undead legion and assumed a bowing position, pressing his head to the ground.
“People who came from elsewhere forcibly took over our shelter…”
The man could not finish his sentence.
A black spear that flew from somewhere had been driven into the back of his head.
-Kwajik!
The spear that pierced through the man’s skull deeply embedded itself, shattering the asphalt ground.
And then chaos erupted.
“Crack!”
“R-run away!”
Hundreds of refugees remaining in the shelter scattered in all directions like herbivores encountering predators.
Men hiding in nearby buildings.
Women trembling, unable to move with their heads buried in their knees.
People running blindly while screaming.
In the midst of this chaos, the youngest child, Michiko, moved.
“Emiko! Let’s go! We have to go!”
Michiko grabbed the hand of Emiko, the only person she knew.
But Emiko was already crying, having wet her pants.
“Emiko! Emiko!”
Even as Michiko continuously grabbed and shook her shoulders, Emiko had no intention of moving.
Michiko, watching this scene, suddenly turned her head and ran out of the shelter.
‘I don’t want to die.’
A young girl just about 7 years old.
But she already knew what death was.
She had seen her family, friends, and neighbors being eaten by the undead dozens, hundreds of times.
Watching those scenes, she vowed she would never end up the same way.
‘I need to quickly find a place without monsters and hide.’
Michiko already had experience surviving alone in a city of death.
She instinctively knew exactly how to survive.
Michiko forcibly moved her trembling legs and quickly looked around.
“There it is.”
A shabby store caught Michiko’s eye.
If she goes behind that store, she’ll find the alley where she used to play hide and seek.
“I need to go quickly…”
Suddenly, Michiko stopped dead in her tracks.
“…”
A knight in black armor blocked her path.
Was it because she was too shocked?
She couldn’t even understand how the black monster approached her.
Michiko instinctively sensed death.
‘Mom… Dad… But I tried my best.’
The knight raised the drawn sword high.
Slowly approaching her head.
The entire process seemed incredibly slow.
The approaching sword tip.
The moment it touches her head means death.
-Puheok!
It was then.
Suddenly, the black knight’s head exploded.
For a moment, a startled Michiko opened her eyes wide, but soon regained her senses and nodded with a hardened face.
And she ran at full speed towards the snack store she had seen.
“Whew…”
Shin Seong-ah watched this scene, smiled slightly, and then turned her gaze towards the next target.

Meanwhile, Dera Asas, who had sent troops, was watching the battlefield vividly through magic.
“How interesting. So interesting.”
Humans fleeing like insects.
The scene of undead cutting down humans felt like a sitcom.
“Hooo…”
And among them, the only three humans running wild.
Kang Hyeon and his subordinates.
“But something is lacking…”
Observing through magic.
Kang Hyeon’s movements were truly incredible.
Not only did he exceed human limits, but even powerful monsters or undead would have to bow to his physical abilities.
But that alone was not enough.
“He is strong. But with that level, he absolutely cannot defeat Gattu Asas.”
He could somewhat understand that with such physical abilities, he might defeat Kulsa.
But Asas was absolutely impossible.
The possibility of Kang Hyeon in this state defeating Gattu Asas was zero, not even by a long shot.
Gattu Asas, called the best in continental swordsmanship.
If he knew Gattu, he would take less than 10 seconds to handle this Kang Hyeon.
“Even if several humans had joined forces, they would not have been able to win… There’s something else.”
Dera Asas thought that Kang Hyeon was hiding his true strength.
Kang Hyeon probably knew well that he was being watched.
“How amusing. Does this mean he doesn’t even need to reveal his actual abilities?”
The situation was becoming more and more interesting.
Dera Asas felt subtly excited and focused more on the battle.
“Those two are Kang Hyeon’s subordinates. Their names are Shin Seong-ah and Yoon Na-rae.”
As Kang Hyeon was not showing anything, his attention naturally shifted to them.
“Quite impressive.”
Yoon Na-rae was fighting against Kulsa without backing down.
It seemed clear she would lose if more time passed.
But the fact that a mere human could withstand Kulsa alone for a moment was already an extraordinary ability.
“In a world where magic has existed for just over two years, a human is fighting against Kulsa who has trained for over 100 years?”
If he hadn’t seen it himself, he would have thought it was an excessive joke.
“Now I understand why Lord Agon was wary of this place.”
Dera finally understood why the absolute being Agon was so cautious about this Earth inhabited only by humans.
At that moment. Dera unconsciously clicked his teeth.
“What was that just now!?”
Kulsa’s shield had been broken.
“Did he read the flow of magical power…?”
And it wasn’t simply broken by force.
He had precisely targeted the core by reading the flow of magical power and neutralized the shield in an instant.
Dera Asas unconsciously slammed his hand on the chair at this high-level technique that was not easily seen.
“How very interesting! What was that just now!?”
Was it just a coincidence?
Fortunately, despite the shield being broken, Kulsa quickly responded and created distance.
It looked like he had well received the prior advice.
And the shield was regenerating again.
“Try it one more time! One more time!”
Dera Asas stared intently at the magically projected screen.
Kang Hyeon approaching Kulsa.
Simultaneously, something shot by Shin Seong-ah hit the magical shield.
The moment it hit the projectile, the shield vanished.
“It wasn’t just luck!”
Seeing this, Dera Asas slammed the chair again.
“I’ve finally discovered the secret. Haha! To think such a skilled person was hiding!”
With this, he could understand how Kang Hyeon had overcome his subordinates.
Kang Hyeon with powerful physical abilities enabling stable defense and attack.
The outstanding shooter Shin Seong-ah supported him.
Their combination looked incredibly good.
If these two were together, they would absolutely be able to defeat someone of Kulsa’s level.
“I still don’t know how you defeated Gattu Asas… But you guys also have a hidden trick.”
And he could roughly guess what that might be.
“Perhaps the projectile becomes extraordinarily powerful, or maybe Kang Hyeon’s physical abilities suddenly enhance.”
Several other possibilities flashed through Dera Asas’s mind.
“Is this excitement after hundreds of years… How exciting! Just wait a little.”
Dera Asas thought he was glad he came to Earth.
His life spanning over a thousand years.
Dera had reached the limit of his talents.
He knew best that no more effort would lead to development.
His life had been boring ever since.
When the absolute being Agon started the conquest war.
He was briefly interested, but that too quickly faded.
A body that had experienced dozens, hundreds of wars.
Showering magic on weak humans was only as thrilling as crushing insects scattered on the ground.
-A new world?
Then he learned about another dimension.
“I’m glad I came to support quickly.”
New civilizations.
Technologies from a completely different dimension from Harken.
Everything has been enjoyable since arriving here.
But among all that, Kang Hyeon and his group were the most enjoyable.
“It’s already over.”
Not even an hour had passed since the military arrived.
The battle was already coming to an end.
Watching Kang Hyeon running wild there, Dera Asas clicked his teeth.
“Kang Hyeon… I hope you can give me eternal rest.”
