Chapter 14
“It is just as you’ve said. This girl isn’t a Hero. She’s a civilian.”
“But then why……..”
“She’s the girl that dramatically survived the Hospital incident. If the Heroes were late even a little, this girl would probably have been another victim to the Dominator.”
Yoos.h.i.+k Kim had a face of displeasure. They were talking about Ironman, and the future of Heroes, but now they were suddenly talking about this girl.
“I don’t have any responsibility towards civilian….”
“Department head Kim, you handle the affairs of Hero Candidates, right?”
“What are you talking about?”
Suddenly, what had appeared on the screen changed.
The girl’s name, age, location of birth, and many other detailed information was shown.
“Director, what are you trying to say? Didn’t you say this girl was a civilian?”
“Department head Kim, I thought you would understand even after saying this much. What I’m trying to say is that this student has awakened her abilities during this past situation.”
“What? However…….this girl is 17 years old. It’s very rare for a civilian to suddenly awaken her powers, when she hasn’t shown any symptoms of it previously. Especially even more so, if she’s lived a life completely unrelated to Heroes.”
a.s.serted Yoos.h.i.+k Kim.
Within his hands, he had information regarding all the people in the nation that had shown symptoms of awakening. Having overwhelming amount of data dating back to the beginning of Heroes, he was very familiar with how Heroes were born.
“I know, there aren’t any cases like that. But, there’s something in common regarding Ironman and this civilian girl. It’s the fact that both are situations that are unheard of. Now, should I give you a problem to solve? Why do you think I suddenly spoke to you regarding this girl?”
“That is….”
That’s when a thought suddenly pa.s.sed through Yoos.h.i.+k Kim’s mind like lightning. It was the commonality that he had yet to acquire regarding Ironman, and this little girl, MinHee Joo.
“Does this have anything to do with the event that had occurred at Central East recently? No, that was the wrong question. There definitely is a connection. And Director, you have found a certain key in that area.”
Yoos.h.i.+k Kim was excited.
The qualitative leap in Ironman’s detection ability.
The awakening of the girl’s powers.
It was very clear.
It was possible to consolidate a Hero using the key that the Director had found.
Director Park had continued to be silent.
“Director!”
Suddenly, Director Park clicked his mouse.
The monitor changed back to what it was previously.
Yoos.h.i.+k Kim’s eyes grew wide.
“That’s right. This person is the key that Department head Kim was speaking about.”
On the screen, a Hero wearing a Silver armor could be seen.
It was the existence that had been very hot on all media outlets recently.
Silver Knight.
“Can’t be, he is…….”
“Of course, there’s nothing certain for now. However, he simply has something special about him, excluding his special powers as a Hero. That’s the only a.s.sumption I can make right now. All the situations that have occurred since he’s appeared has been completely different from its predecessors. I can’t possibly think that all of this can just be a coincidence.”

The next day, Haneul had arrived at the cemetery.
His father in World B was located here.
‘Father is at the same location as where mother was, interestingly enough.’
In the picture, the smiling face of his father could be seen. Haneul was a little younger in the picture, and his father and mother were still together. It was always like that. In pictures, his father was always smiling so brightly, but when he saw his father in reality, he was never smiling. Haneul’s mother was a big part of his father’s life, just as much as it was for himself. A hole had formed in his father’s heart after she pa.s.sed, and it had never gone away.
‘Compared to you, mother in this world seems to be better off. I always thought you were strong father, but it seems like mother is much stronger than you.’
Haneul continued to speak in front of his father regarding everything that had occurred since he came to this world.
Chapter 14 Completed.
