Vol.2 Ch.53: 29F - Bet (2)

29F - Bet (2): Koon has a flashback about what happened just before the Hand of Arlen blew up, and he is wondering whether the FUG candidate is really the innocent and pure teammate he knew on the floor of test. Suddenly regaining consciousness in front of Wangnan yelling at Yihwa for setting fire to the acupuncture needle inside him, Koon takes out the acupuncture needle that was inside him and holds it to Wangnan's throat as Wangnan is yelling at Yihwa to put it out. He is introduced to the rest of Team Tangsooyook, and is surprised at their plainness, expecting the teammates of an FUG candidate to be scarier. He looks at Viole's pocket, noting it's A grade. Koon takes them to his bunker on the 29th floor, noting Akraptor's shrewdness and hindsight to investigate him thoroughly. Wangnan opens the door, only to find Dan stabbed and bleeding heavily next to a dead Gyetang. FUG's inscribed in blood on the wall by Apple and Michael, who are nowhere to be found. Akraptor takes Dan, who is still barely alive, away. Unfortunately, his legs might be beyond healing...

Koon standing on top of the roof comes to the conclusion that Baam was Jyu Viole Grace when Hwa-Ryun appears, surprising him, since he had always thought of her as a regular.

On the 30th floor, Ship's team watches the news of Koon's death grimly, wondering what's going on. Elsewhere, Parakewl's seen running towards Rak, who's sitting on some rocks in a misty lake and tells him the news of Koon's death. Rak's sure that it can't be true and he sets out to find him.

SIU's Afterword
I had some work to do, so my post was late. It took a while, but Season 1 characters are back at last. You will have to wait for seeing them in action, but you won't be disappointed.

As for why Rak and Koon getting breaked up, that will come out later. Koon is a person, who acted 'adult' since he was really little. So deep down, a part of him wants to go back 'child' even though he grew up. That is the irony Koon has. As author, I try to keep attention whenever drawing him. About Koon, he will be displayed more in Koon family episode which is soon to come. so I think it'll be fine to just enjoy him as he is for now.

On first draft, many of 1st scene members would have been changed. But as lots of people love them, I decided to let many live as possible. ^^; Frankly, Tower of God was really hardcore when it began. Such things are softened as it is published. So mental breaking won't show up much

Have a nice week. Thank you~
