“By any chance, do you want to continue living here? ”

As soon as it came out,

“… What? ”

At the same time, I doubted my ears, reflexively.

Did I just hear that wrong?

“Don't you want to continue living here? Home... No, don't you want to go back to the old world and sit on the Hall Plane? I mean, as a user. ”

However, the older brother said in a random manner.

It wasn't a mistake to hear. The sound of the word ‘old world’ is quite disturbing. Why would he suddenly say something like that? With what intention?

No matter how much I think about it. I'm confused.

After all, my brother was a creepy face. I feel like I'm observing my reaction just by looking at the slither.

“You're not angry. ”

“All of a sudden... What?”

“I knew you'd jump if I brought it up. I was a little bit cranky. But I'm surprised. ”

“Are you serious? ”

Then my brother opened his eyes slowly.

“There's nothing wrong with that, is there? ”

It speaks as if it is not true.

“Nothing bad? ”

“Isn't that right? Come to think of it, you and I have somewhat of a place in the world. No, it's not. ”

“That's it. ”

“Of course, you can miss your family and friends. But you said that, right? Even though I was two years ahead of you, I didn't disappear on Earth. I guess you did, too, after all you've done. At least your parents don't know. ”

“Brother.”

“And speaking of which... Yeah, let's say things work out. Well, maybe you'll be in worse shape then? ”

“Too bad?”

“You know, there's another you on Earth, and here you're just disappearing. I know it's a little hard to say, but you're not a total stranger anymore. ”

Suddenly, I felt a sudden feeling. The boiling energy in my stomach seems to be caught on the spot. I want to say "Moore," but I can't shake my mouth.

“Status, property, honor, and fate…. I'll leave all this and go back to Earth... Can you handle it? ”

“ ……. ”

“This isn't the only one. Earth is a very peaceful world unlike here, and you've lived in the Hole Plain for over fourteen years. ”

“My brother.”

Eventually, I cut him off. I felt like my heart would burst if I listened to it anymore.

I took a big breath. My brother was staring at me with his left hand as if to say something.

“My brother…. Don't do this.”

After taking out the horse, the two eyes that were looking at me were tapered for a moment.

“You know that. ”

I barely spoke, but my voice trembles. No vision, no breath sounds, all the senses I perceived felt resonant. I feel like I tried to collect it, but it's getting worse and worse.

“Then you shouldn't, no, you shouldn't. You're not the only one who should be saying that. ”

It was then.

“What did I think, what did I feel...! ”

“Don't make excuses for me. ”

When I heard a voice that sounded strange,

“Did I ask you to save me, to do this? ”

I was completely speechless. I closed my eyes.

My brother...

‘If I die, don't bring me back to life. ’

‘Why? It's weird. You can bring her back to life if you die. I don't think my life is that cheap. ’

‘Soo-hyun... ’

‘Run away... I hope you survive... ’

... I didn't.

The moment I came to mind, I suddenly felt the strength draining from my whole body.

“And there seems to be a misunderstanding. ”

At the same time, my brother's words continued.

“Better to be sure. I don't want to live here. I don't want to convince you. ”

“Then…. ”

“Like I said, I want to know your true insides. Whether the idea has remained the same, or has changed at all. ”

“Why are you telling me...? ”

A lot of voices to listen to on your own.

“You're the one who gave it all back. ”

He said without changing his face, he kept his mouth shut. And holding still seems to be waiting for me to say something.

But I wasn't in the mood to say it. I was swallowed up by the sudden feeling of devastation and still couldn't break up. I just didn't know what to say. Because...

“... I'm sorry. ”

At that moment, I felt a provocation. When I woke up a little later, my brother was already on the couch and walking to the door. Then I barely woke up.

“Brother.”

“I have an official announcement tomorrow at noon. ”

I grabbed the doorknob and stopped.

“Presentation?”

“I've already got it straight. Central, North-East, South-East, and North-East cities... There's gonna be a lot of people there. Maybe.”

“I never heard of it. What are you up to? ”

“It's no big deal. And the plan doesn't really matter. ”

The brother who said that looked at me halfway around his face.

“It's you that matters. ”

“I...? ”

“I don't want to talk about it because it looks complicated. There are, of course, four seats in the official statue tomorrow. You're free to join us tomorrow or not. ”

“You don't have to go? ”

“When you come, we'll stick to the plan, or we'll just end with a simple announcement. So let's hear the answer today with or without tomorrow. You don't have to say it right now. ”

“Wait a minute.”

“And I'll say it here in advance. No matter what choice you make, I will respect and accept your decision.... This is serious. ”

“Brother!”

Suddenly, the door opens and closes. He hid himself like the wind.

“ ……. ”

I stared at my brother's seat for a while and slowly buried myself in the chair. I turned my head to the ceiling.

It seemed to be shifting and fading away. I closed my eyes to the strong dizziness that was hovering on my forehead. I could hear something banging, but I couldn't open my eyes.

As I took a deep breath, my head seemed to sink a little. However, no matter how hard they try, they will not disappear.

‘It's not the only thing. Earth is a very peaceful world unlike here, but you who have lived in Hall Plain for over fourteen years... ’

That's the last thing I wanted to hear. No, I was really afraid to hear that. So I stopped talking without thinking. I didn't think you were thinking that...

“Hey!"

Then a sharp shout struck me in the face. As I quickly opened my eyes and sat down, I felt something slipping before my eyes. Then I realized that someone had come in.

“What? Why do you keep calling me that? I knocked a few times. ”

Vivian grunts right in front of her desk, her cheeks puffed up. Waving my head vigorously, the focus of my vision returned. Vivian puzzles her eyebrows, wondering where it hurts.

“The page came and I ran as far as I could. I'm sleeping well. ”

Soon, however, I shook my nose and put what was in my hands down on my desk. One or two soccer ball sizes rang out.

“This...? ”

“Doubloons. Probably 370,000. Help the clan fund. ”

“Three hundred, what? Where did you get this? ”

“Well, actually, one of the research achievements was posted at the auction house. It was just a prank, but I didn't know it would be so expensive. ”

Vivian shrugs her lower lip. The moment I heard the word "auction house", a thought struck my mind. Seventy percent of the winnings go to the seller and thirty percent to the host. In other words, if we subtract the amount that Bian said, the principal will be exactly 530,000 gold coins.

“... That's amazing. ”

Vivian raises her nose with an open heart as she compliments herself with a hollow laugh.

“Well, I'm not great for a day or two. Why did you call me, by the way? ”

That's right. Then I gave you something. I was going to give it to him, but I wasn't in the mood right now. Two black and white elixirs were taken out of the drawer simultaneously, activating the third eye.

Native Status

1. Name: Vivian La Classidus

[Strength 51] [Durability 52] [Agility 58] [HP 47] [Magic Power 94] [Luck 74]

Elixir obtained through the 'Undying Gang’ expedition is below the limit of 95 Magic Power, while Magic Power Up is 1 point when consumed. The elixir purchased at the Auction House is subject to the same restrictions, with a Magic Boost value between 2 and 4 points.

In other words, if you eat it in the order of Expedition and Auction House Elixir, both can be effective. It can go up to 97 points and aim for up to 99 points.

“What are you staring at? Why did you call me?”

“Oh, I wanted to give you something. ”

I pushed two elixirs forward as quickly as I could, with a mining tone. Vivian opens her eyes and reaches out in a curious tone.

After a while.

“Huh…! ”

I knew it.Is it because I'm an alchemist by nature? Or you might have noticed it right away because you've made elixir before. The two eyes that were looking at the two elixirs alternately grew into a flashlight cup.

“Is this...? ”

“Yes, it's a magic elixir. I heard there's been a lot of trouble with summoning because of the lack of magical power lately. ”

“Really? Not a lie? You're not teasing me, are you? ”

“You can use the Google Apps app if you want. ”

“Ki, Soo-hyun Kim! ”

“But you have to be careful before you take them. ”

I explained the order in which I take the elixir. I told him that I had to take the Black Elixir first and the White Elixir second. Vivian nods frantically and shines a look of joy and emotion.

“Hey. Who the hell are you? ”

“ ……? ”

“Give me something in advance. You know what really surprised me? My heart is still racing! ”

“Haha…. ”

Vivian expressed joy with her whole body, like jumping around with the elixir in both hands.

I should have been happy together, but I turned my eyes away without knowing it. It's because I suddenly felt uncomfortable. Unexplainably grumpy, that feeling. Then I felt the noisy posture fading away.

“Hey, Kim Soo-hyun? ”

“Huh?"

“You…. Are you okay?”

“What? There's nothing wrong with that. ”

“Really? That's a relief. Actually, it's been a little weird for a while. ”

“Ah…. It's nothing.”

I can't stand anything. I shook my head and got up.

“Huh? Where are you going? ”

The particle Vivian asked me with surprised eyes about Juju Island clothes.

“Sorry, I have an appointment. I have to get out of here. ”

You don't have to make promises or leave right away. In fact, I don't know where to go once I leave the door like this.

“Ahh. You're still busy. ”

As soon as you try to pass yourself by, you nod as if you understand the light in Vivian's eyes. I repeatedly emphasized the order of the doses, then teased the busy sieve steps. It was then.

“Soo-hyun Kim!"

Just before I opened the door, a cheerful voice caught me.

I turn my eyes away, and Vivian raises her arms. The two hands that reached the ceiling immediately curved toward the crown and drew a heart shape.

“I love you! Thank you so much! ”

Vivian smiles widely.

But I was convinced to smile once.

I had to.

I closed the door quietly and made a quick mockery of the walk.

You may walk away, but you unconsciously slow down. I heard several voices calling me in the middle, but I just focused on walking. From the hallway to the stairs, from stairs to one floor, from one floor to the entrance, from the entrance to the garden….

… So, where to now?

I want to go somewhere, but I don't know where to go.

Though I thought it was a funny wander, I finally walked out of the front door without any fuss.

And how much time has passed.

While walking freely, I felt a sudden tingling sensation.

Upon regaining consciousness, you come into contact with a long, rectangularly polished solid brick. It took me a while to realize that the brick was one of the stairs going up.

I looked up dazed.

There.

“ ……. ”

The White Shrine rises.
