Return of the Frozen Player novel - Chapter 265
C265. friend (3)
“…Knowing you, I’m not going to tell you to clean up,” Gilberto said as he looked around Skaya’s Lair. “But you should at least live like a human.”
“This is my home. And this is comfortable for me. I guess you could say it makes me feel relaxed.”
“How strange. It just makes me feel uncomfortable.”
“¡Ugh, entonces solo vete!”
Seo Jun-Ho clucked and shook his head as he watched the two argue again. “Stop fighting over nothing… Both of you, come here.”
At his call, they stopped arguing and slowly approached him. Standing in front of the two ice statues, they were lost in the memories of him.
Seo Jun-Ho felt especially excited.
‘…I’m almost there.’
If he closed his eyes, he could imagine the day he had poured alcohol for the four statues as if it were yesterday. That was the day he swore to become a Player again to save them.
‘So far, I released exactly half of it.’
He had freed two of his four comrades. And today, he would be one step closer to his goal.
“Jun-Ho, who will you wake up?”
“Hm…” Seo Jun-Ho was silent for a moment as he examined the two ice statues.
Rahmadat Khali and Tenmei Mio. She looked at her two sleeping friends and nodded slightly. She had already decided in her heart.
“Own”. Seo Jun-Ho looked at her for a moment before continuing, “I’m sorry. Please wait a little longer.”
When he turned to Rahmadat, Skaya looked surprised.
“Now that the third floor has been opened… Is there any particular reason why you chose Rahmadat?” she asked.
“Of course.” She looked at Rahmadat as he spoke, “Skaya. What comes to mind when you think of him?
“Se ve estúpido”.
“…That’s too subjective.” Rahmadat was much better than the credit she had given him. He was a good man, and he was very muscular. If he really looked stupid, he wouldn’t have been that popular. “Here is another question. What do you think when you look at Mio?”
“…Oh.” Skaya understood the meaning of his question and nodded.
At the same time, Gilberto also had an amused expression on his face. “How did you… I see. Is it because of his ability?
“Something like that.” Seo Jun-Ho looked back and forth between each statue. Mio was in a state similar to the two that had been released before her. Her body looked fragile, as her muscles had atrophied after going so long without any nutrients.
But Rahmadat was different…
‘His muscles definitely shrank.’
But he had Super Regeneration (S). Although his body was frozen, his ability was still active. So even though he was trapped in the ice, he still had the giant muscles of him.
“Therefore, we can use Rahmadat in battle immediately.”
“It makes sense,” Gilberto said.
“Yes, considering how suspicious the demons have been lately…” It would be more efficient to release Rahmadat instead of Mio.
The two nodded in understanding.
“Not only that, but this guy is a tanker.”
When players created a party, the first member they looked for was not a skilled warrior, archer, or priest.
They’re looking for tankers.
Getting a tanker was the top priority, as tankers could block enemy attacks like a wall. And among the tankers Seo Jun-Ho knew, Rahmadat had been the best tanker in the world.
“We don’t have to worry about him dying,” Seo Jun-Ho said.
It was a beast that would only die if its heart or brain took enough damage.
Tal era of Ramadan Khali…
“So, Rahmadat, I choose you.” Seo Jun-Ho touched the ice statue of Rahmadat.
[The effect of the skill ‘Frost (EX)’ has been checked.]
[The ice seal can be removed with Frost (EX).]
[Your base magic stat is high enough to remove the ice seal.]
[After removing it, you will not be able to remove another ice seal for another 90 days.]
[Are you sure you want to remove the ice seal?]
‘I knew that.’
A million thoughts filled Seo Jun-Ho’s mind, but the first thing he felt was pride.
I am no longer penalized for removing the ice seal.
When he woke up the two people behind him, he had lost 70 and 30 magic stat points respectively. Of course, he had never told them about it, since he knew they would only end up embarrassed by him.
“Why are you looking like that?”
“It’s nothing. When this boy wakes up, just make sure you treat him as usual,” Seo Jun-Ho said.
“…As usual?” Gilbert asked.
“I’m sure I can do that. Very confident, in fact. Leave it to me,” Skaya said.
Seeing his strange confidence made Seo Jun-Ho hesitate. He added: “No, I’m not telling you to bully him like usual.”
“Jun-Ho, why do you take us?” Gilberto protested.
“…”
Seeing how Skaya had fallen silent, it became clear that she was planning to do just that.
“Abierto.”
When the ice statue received the order, there was a loud crack as a large crack appeared.
‘Based on what I’ve experienced so far…’
Seo Jun-Ho dropped to one knee and lowered his stance.
Because Rahmadat would fall forward at any moment…
“¡Raaaa!”
hatch!
As the ice statue exploded, the giant let out a loud scream.
“Ice queen! Did you really think you could stop me with just this amount of ice?! Ahahaha!” She puffed out her chest and let out a laugh before suddenly looking down. She frowned when she saw Seo Jun-Ho reaching out his hands as if she was trying to catch something. “Huh? What are you doing, Jun Ho? Why are you holding that stupid pose?”
“…”
Skaya came up behind him. “Hey. Since he looks pretty good, I can intimidate him as usual, right?” She asked carefully.
“…” Jun-Ho looked at her as if she was pathetic, and took a step back after saying, “Okay~ I’m sorry.”
“Hoo…”
Of course, Seo Jun-Ho did not expect to have an emotional meeting with people like Rahmadat. On the other hand, he didn’t expect his meeting to be like this either.
‘Yes, it’s my fault for expecting something from him.’
Seo Jun-Ho nodded slowly. Once again, he got the feeling that he was the only sane one in this group.
“Hmm?” Rahmadat looked around and blinked. “How strange. This doesn’t look like the Nest.
“That is correct. This is my lair,” Skaya said.
“Makes sense. That’s why it’s so messy.” Rahmadat turned. “But why are we in Skaya’s Lair and not the Nest?”
“…”
Seo Jun-Ho swallowed hard. If he was being honest, he was more nervous about moments like this than waking up his friends.
“Rahmadat. Don’t take it the wrong way and just listen to me.”
“Sure! I don’t really know what you’re talking about, but say what you need to. And stop standing around like constipated puppies.”
“… A lot of time has passed”.
“Hour?” Rahmadat rubbed his chiseled jaw. “Now that I think about it, I don’t know how long I was trapped in the ice… Has it been a few days? One week? One month?”
“Not.” Seo Jun-Ho shook his head, looking serious. “26 years have passed. 26 years from the day we cleared the Nest.”
“Pffft, you’ve gotten better at making jokes…” Rahmadat thought it was a joke at first, but her face fell when she saw Gilberto’s serious face. He knew that Gilberto was too uptight to make such jokes.
“…Mmm.”
¡Bam!
As Rahmadat sat up her 7-foot frame, the Lair trembled. She crossed her legs and puffed out her chest, closing her eyes. “26 years, you say…”
He was lost in his own thoughts for about ten minutes before slowly opening his eyes. “Let me ask you something. Was the world destroyed?
“It is the opposite. I killed the Frost Queen and the world has become peaceful.”
“That’s really good.” Rahmadat smiled brightly and started asking all sorts of questions, and the three of them patiently answered each one.
“Ahahaha!” Rahmadat laughed as he smacked his knee with his thick hand. “The world has become fun! To think that there is another floor. And the Frost Queen became your spirit? Bahahaha!”
“…”
Seo Jun-Ho didn’t believe Rahmadat’s laugh. Every time he pretended, he had a habit of looking up.
“Take this.” She handed a small post-it to Rahmadat.
“Huh? What is this? An address?”
“It is the current address of Mrs. Joya. I thought you should meet her at least once.”
Joya Vishuta was the name of Rahmadat’s lover 26 years ago.
“…” She fell silent as she reached for the post-it. Her hand stopped suddenly in midair and she began to shake uncharacteristically.
A variety of emotions filled him as he trembled. Fault. To regret. And fear
“…Yeah, I was going to ask you anyway. Thank you.” Rahmadat took the piece of paper as the air around him grew uncomfortable. He stood up. “For now…”
He looked at his comrades looking at him with a cheerful face. “Let’s go get some food.”
***
The hotel restaurant was in a skyscraper overlooking the night scenery of Seoul. Rahmadat stuffed his mouth on a rare steak as he spoke: “I bet I’ll be busy for a while trying to get my muscles back and catch up on EXP and levels from the last 26 years.”
“…You just woke up and you’re already thinking about it?”
“Hehe, they call me the reincarnation of Shiva. I have to be stronger than the others.” She gave an animated response before remembering to thank Seo Jun-Ho. “And I know it’s late, but thanks for getting me out. Although, of course, I don’t like that you took out the nerdy wizard and scrawny gunslinger before I did.
“…What? Nerd?
“Hey, even I will be offended if you call me skinny.”
As Skaya and Gilberto fumed, Rahmadat spoke while beating her chest, “If you have complaints, let’s have a battle of strength like real men!”
“…Are you saying that you will fight with your body in that state? Just eat your steak and your ego while you do it,” Gilberto said.[1]
“Yeah. And I’m a wizard, you know? I’m not even a man either,” Skaya complained.
“Well, you’re more moody than most men, and you don’t even clean…” Gilberto pointed out.
“Wait, Mr. Married Man. Why are you attacking me all of a sudden?
“I’m not actually attacking you. I’m just telling the truth.”
It was loud. The number of speakers had only increased from two to three, but it had gotten louder than a busy market.
“…”
Also, Seo Jun-Ho hated noise. It was part of the reason he had always worked alone.
But how should I say this?
‘…It feels like home.’
he snorted. Even he didn’t understand why. He had never thought that a day would come when he would find his fights endearing.
‘Just One More.’
He fixed his eyes on the empty seat at the round table. Once Mio was awake and sitting there, the image she wanted would be complete.
“Hey?” When he looked up, all three were staring at him. “What. What is it?”
“I was wondering why you were laughing, Jun-Ho,” Skaya said.
“Were you thinking of a funny story? I want to hear it, then,” Rahmadat said.
“Happiness grows when it is shared,” said Gilberto.
‘…How should I put this?’
“I’m so happy they’re back I didn’t even realize I was smiling.” It was too embarrassing to say. And considering the personalities of these guys, she knew she would be teased for years.
“It’s private. Mind your business,” she said.
“Hm, then it can’t be helped! That was a good meal. Rahmadat got up. He had eaten more than 20 steaks by himself. “Oh right, Nerd. Let me ask you a favor.
“…What’s the occasion? You, asking for a favor?” Skaya said, sounding surprised. Rahmadat scratched the back of her neck. She reached out a hand, holding a certain post-it note.
“Take me here. Oh, I should change before I go.
“Uh…? Oh, of course.” Skaya caught on quickly and nodded. He stood up and addressed Seo Jun-Ho and Gilberto: “Then, I’m going to go with this bag of meat…”
“Don’t worry about us. Take your time and be careful on your way back.”
Skaya and Rahmadat waved and disappeared while teleporting away.
Gilberto looked at the night scenery of Seoul. He took a sip of his beer as he spoke, “She’s married, right?”
“Your son will be entering college this year.”
Everybody wanted to be a hero. However, those in that position had to give up the joys of life.
“… A lot of time has passed”.
“Ya veo.”
If there was one thing that could be guaranteed over time, it was that some things would fade.
Neither of the two men said anything as they emptied their glasses of alcohol.

1. He’s basically telling Rahmadat not to be too arrogant, but the phrase used can also mean “eat”.
