Haru found the ongoing chaos among the constellations quite funny, it was funnier than what was going on in his group.
"Well, meeting another beauty is always welcome," Baek Chang-min spoke with a smile, he was apostle number 4 and had joined the group heading for Gwang-hwamun alongside another Apostle.
Her name was Kim Min-ji and currently, she looked like she was in deep thought.
"I don't think our lineup can get any better than this," Hee-won said shaking her head.
"Hee-won did you include yourself as well?" Dok-ja asked curiously, he did agree that their group most likely had the best women looks wise but about Hee-won…
"Hmm? What type of question is that? I am the center you know," Hee-won had a lot of confidence in herself and it showed "Do you think otherwise Kim Dok-ja-ssi?"
"N-Not really," Dok-ja looked away as Hee-won narrowed her eyes.
"I think Hee-won Unnie is cool," Jin-ah said.
"Me too, I think we make a great trio," Alea nodded since she wasn't a full-fledged vanguard and had a position that was sort of in the middle of being a rearguard and vanguard.
But with Hee-won who was a pure attacker and Jin-ah who was fixed to be a rearguard unless the situation demanded otherwise, the trio had really good compatibility.
"You guys have a good eye," Hee-won smiled contently as a new trio that would go on to create more problems than actually solving them was made on this day, but that is a story for later.
After nearly an hour of walking in the tunnel, the group reached Gwang-hwamun station.
After coming out of the station the group looked around the desolate area which was once teeming with people. The destruction caused by the scenarios was clear to see here.
With cracked streets with cave-ins in certain areas, crashed vehicles, and overly damaged buildings, the scene truly fits the description, End of the World.
Even then there wasn't enough time to be thinking about such things as they had a place they needed to be at, but someone had another idea…
"Hey Haru, you are going in the opposite direction," Hee-won pointed out just in case while Haru took a right after leaving the station instead of a left.
"There is something on this side that I want to check out," Haru said as he walked further.
"What is he up to now?" Hee-won asked Jin-ah and Alea who also didn't know what was happening.
'I really don't understand what he is thinking,' Dok-ja thought as he followed the group, Normally during the scenario where people's lives were on the line, it would be somewhat easy to pinpoint what type of thoughts a person was having since it would mostly likely be associated with the fear of losing one's life.
But with Haru, things were very different…
"Don't tell me you turned around to look for this ice cream shop?" Hee-won asked looking at Haru who was behind the counter of the shop.
"Hmm? No not really," Haru denied it.
"At least wipe the ice cream off your mouth before saying that," Hee-won sighed since Haru was eating the ice cream or in his words, checking if they are still good so that others don't get sick, yep that was the reason.
'Yeah, it is hard to understand him,' Dok-ja could only stand and watch this from outside.
"Well, ok let's go to the actual place now," After fifteen minutes Haru spoke after he had finished checking the ice cream.
'They really covered the whole shop with a protective layer,' Dok-ja just didn't want to think further when he saw the shop covered in vines.
It was done on Haru's command, Jin-ah covered the inside with Ice to make a nice freezer, and had Alea surround the shop with vines so that it isn't damaged by some monster rampaging around.
You can say that he was going too far for just ice cream but well, that's how Haru operated.
"Are you going to look into another shop by any chance?" Hee-won asked.
"No, there aren't any nearby," Haru shook his head.
"So you would've if there were?" Hee-won raised an eyebrow.
"….Come now let's not waste more time, Onwards to the destination!!" Haru walked ahead quickly in the correct direction this time, Hee-won sighed and the group quickly followed them.
And in less than 5 minutes they had reached their location.
'Wait!' And Dok-ja was left wide-eyed seeing where they were.
"Why are we stopping by here? Don't tell me you found another shop?" Hee-won asked while looking at the statue in the middle of the square.
The Apostles were also confused and only three people understood why they were stopping here.
"Don't you remember where your stylish robe came from Hee-won?" Haru pointed at the robe Hee-won was still wearing.
"If you want to pick a fight just say so," Hee-won said flatly, she could feel that he was doing this on purpose.
"Well, you remember how Dok-ja got those items right?" Haru said and Hee-won looked at Dok-ja with a face full of realization.
"Are we going to pray in front of this statue then?" Hee-won tilted his head and looked at Dok-ja.
"Yeah," Dok-ja smiled and said naturally, he couldn't say how he managed to get his items now can he?
'But how did I forget about the statue of King Se-jong The Great in Gwang-hwamun?' Dok-ja actually started to doubt whether he was really Korean or not.
King Se-jong is considered one of the greatest rulers of the Joseon Kingdom (1392-1910), He was the one who created the Hangul script to replace the Chinese script which was used previously.
He had made many more cultural and intellectual accomplishments, but if one wanted to sum up his rule in a few words then they would be 'The Golden Age' which is often used to describe his rule.
And because of that he is very well known not only in Korea but also in the surrounding nations.
So, there was a chance to get the relics of such a person in front of Dok-ja, if praying doesn't work, then….
'I am actually tempted, The quote 'Kill the Buddha if you meet him on the street' has never been more true than now,' Dok-ja thought as the others were examining the statue.
[Don't even think about it, you have already caused enough trouble for the channel as is!!] Bi-hyung seemed to have caught onto what Dok-ja was thinking and shouted at him quickly.
Even though King Se-jong was also a Historical grade constellation like the 'Bald General of The Peasant Army' but the difference between them was really big.
The reason for this was that King Se-jong was just a step or two away from advancing and becoming a Narrative Grade Constellation, he would be in the same category as Abyssal Black Flame Dragon and Uriel.
"Well, then let's pray and hope we get lucky," Haru said and everyone nodded, how can they not understand how beneficial this could be to them? if they end up getting some type of relic that belonged to King Se-jong it would be great.
The two Apostles were also quick on the uptake when they heard a little about it from Hee-won, Dok-ja stayed quiet about it and they all prayed together silently.
Well, that didn't last long because….
"Did you get anything?" Hee-won asked the other four as only Haru and Dok-ja were left praying after 10 minutes.
"Nah," Alea shook her head, she was the first one to give up.
"I didn't get anything either," Jin-ah shrugged, she was never the type of person to pray and had a hard time staying still so she was the second person to stop.
The two Apostles also didn't get anything and were just sitting in place while sighing.
'Damn, I didn't get anything,' Dok-ja also finally gave up on this and came near the others.
"So, what about him?" Hee-won looked at Haru who was still standing there, but the thing was there were shimmering specks of dust around his head.
"It looks like Haru is getting something," Dok-ja had his hopes up when he saw how Haru was able to get a connection with the Constellation.
"Should we just leave him here?" Hee-won suggested.
