Life, Once Again!

“Besides, it's a game that doesn't have a bad ending. They were generous. I'm sure her husband's death will be sad. But we can keep trying. How beautiful it is. If you just endure a little pain, you can start your life over again. ”

I threw my gaze down to the right. I saw my husband in high school. He was running towards the soccer ball. My heart is half-cut. I see the pain, and I feel better. Games without bad endings. Just endure the pain and you can continue to challenge.

“If we really win, will he and I ever be happy? ”

“There are many forms of happiness, so you can't just pick them up and say it, but you're not going to lie on your bed for 10 years like now. ”

“Okay, I'll do it. What are the conditions for victory? ”

The man smiles and shakes his head.

“I can't tell you that. ”

“You can't tell me? What's that supposed to mean? ”

“Mr. Han, I told you there's a price to pay, right? And the fact that dead humans, people who will continue to face death, ignore providence and come back to life, is the most important rule of the world. High Risk High Return, right? To eat the fruit that every human being in the world wants, you have to take the risk. ”

I was thinking of folklore. Even though you think it's dangerous, you can get happiness by overcoming the warmth of suffering and enduring adversity on the side of your chest. The man said it was not such a trivial story.

“You said that at first, right? Surrendering your life is just a trade. ”

“Now you know the situation correctly. This is definitely the right opportunity. I'm sure it's a miracle that everyone's so desperate. But miracles are never easy to come by. If it were easy to touch, people wouldn't call it a miracle. Isn't it a miracle those great saints abandoned my body? You just have to do what your superiors would love to do to perform a miracle that would bring back the dead. ”

“Are they really the gods I know? Is it true that God despises humans? ”

“How do I know their intentions? But if I didn't feel bad about it, I wouldn't have given it a chance. They either put it in a fire pit or they extinguish it. Firepits are my personal expression. I will leave it to Mr. Han's judgment whether or not it is true. ”

I've thought about it, but the answer is already out there. Even if my worries were longer, the words from my mouth did not change. It is better than sending my husband away even though it is pain of putting on flesh and breaking bones.

“To continue explaining the conditions of victory, Mr. Han will not know the conditions until the game is completed. It will be your husband, Hangul, who knows the conditions. ”

“Husband?”

“Yes, and the game can be quite long, but it must end. ”

“That's the happy ending. ”

“Yes. At least as I've seen, everyone was relieved at the end of the game. Everybody was glad the game was over. So it's a happy ending."

“More than me, I suppose? ”

“A lot. A lot. Of all the people in the world, there's not a single one who hasn't finished the game. ”

I nodded and asked a few questions.

“Your husband died in a fire a while ago, right? ”

“Yes, Mr. Hangul was killed twice. ”

“If you die satisfied with those conditions, you go back to high school. ”

“That's right, no exceptions. If you don't meet the conditions, you go back to the starting point. It's really a game."

“So he begins his third life with the realization that he died twice? ”

The man smiles.

“This is the first person I've ever asked that question to. They don't approach it cautiously because they're excited. Hangul goes back in time, preserving his near-death memory. However, I only remember the life before I was reborn. Now, Hangul's dying life as a plant has disappeared from his mind. He died in a fire and was given his first life. ”

“The first one repeats countless times? ”

“Yes, it is. ”

“In the process, we have to find the conditions for victory. ”

“It gives you more notice than it actually finds. Some outstanding people find it themselves and make a decision, but usually the superiors send a signal. You get bored when you have longer entertainment. If you want to see the end, your superiors will let your husband know how to win. Keep in mind that this game will end at any cost. ”

My husband was resourceful. He had an embarrassing problem ahead of him, but also an extravagance he couldn't afford. He could have done well. I trust him.

“You liked it. ”

The man says, "I nod."

“Then I will tell you the last thing. While the world is going on, there is nothing for Mr. Han to do. You just have to watch. But when Mr. Hangul dies, something will happen to you. ”

“What's that? ”

“You have to act as a guide. And you have to ask your intention to play the game. You just have to keep doing these two things. ”

The man clapped his hands three times. The landscape changed. It was a dense forest. A young woman and a man in their early thirties were talking in front of a pine tree. She explained to him about his rebirth. The man understood and soon the crowd surrounded him.

“Do you understand?”

I said yes. Knowledge flows into my mind. When my husband died, I just had to appear in front of him and lead him to accept his rebirth naturally. At that time, the appearance changes so that my husband doesn't recognize me.

“Now you know who to ask to participate in the game? ”

I looked down at the man's question. At my age, I had to ask "Han sky," which would not be me in the future. Will you bring him back to life when he dies, or will you give up and accept him?

“If I'm down there saying I don't want to bring my husband back, what's the game? ”

“That's where it ends. But that's not going to happen. Not one of them has ever refused their proposals. ”

“What if that happens? ”

“Mr. Han, Do you think you are so special? Do you consider yourself a person who is not in the category and is moving forward with a new realm? There are no contingencies in my criteria. because everyone is desperate and loves their spouse more than anyone else. So we don't give up. ”

“I suppose so.”

“Do you have any more questions? ”

“You said your husband lives a new life every time, right? ”

“Yes.”

“There must be a choice in that life that you don't want to marry me. ”

“It does exist.”

“If so……. ”

“You're both going to enjoy life. It's a happy ending for you, isn't it? If you don't want to live with someone other than yourself, you can just end it like this. Hangul will die a vegetable, and you will live with your little daughter. How about something that hasn't happened yet? ”

“No, it's probably better that way. Maybe he met me and got unhappy. If he can be happy, I'm happy with that. ”

“In that case, please sign formally. It's procedure required. ”

The man pushes in the blank paper the first time. He said putting his palm on top of it would establish a contract. I straightened my palms and placed them on paper. I opened my mouth just before my palm touched the paper.

“I won't be remembered down there, will I? ”

“Everyone's memories, except for Mr. Hangul, are not connected. It just goes back in time. ”

“But I'm surprised. I can't believe you're taking all that time back for one person. ”

“It's probably no big deal for the boss. Solve puzzles. Solve puzzles. Solve them again. ”

“What happens to me when this game is over? ”

“I'm just going back to the way things were. I'll explain again when that happens. ”

After a deep breath, I press down on the paper with my palms as if interfering.

“All procedures are complete. Now, let's get started. ”

The man clapped. After 49 claps, the world that had stopped began to move.

Hamtory went a very long way to find Mr. Sunflower.

Well... Last night, the one who bit my finger so badly, it was stiff in the morning. I've only lived with him for a year... but I guess he was busy on his way.

What it would feel like to have a live animal die with us for over a decade, and I didn't know it before, but I think I know it a little bit from today. It's gonna be quiet tonight. He didn't turn the wheel.

The quiet living room is very strange.

Go somewhere nice.

I hope it's a place that gives you a lot of your favorite mil-worms.
