“…… my lover always insists on tough choices. ”

Raviel pauses to sigh.

Breath splattered during.

Raviel patted my earlobe for the remaining time. I knew she was sighing and thought [I don't want to sigh in front of my loved one's face].

“I understood the discretion that was worth it. If I were in your shoes, I would have done the same. With my head... My heart won't let me rest. ”

Of course.

What Raviel said applies to me equally.

If I am in the same position as Raviel, I will not allow it easily.

“Do you have the logic to persuade him? ”

Raviel looks at the back of the crystal.

“All I observed with my eyes for about a day is a stiff wick. No, it doesn't matter if the wick takes human form beyond the stiffness of the wick.

Raviel and Ubrica are visible in the crystal's eyes [as is].

Raviel's silver hair shines in black to others, and Uburga's green skin shines in pale color. Confusing perception.

But the cognitive changes don't work on the quartz.

“Yesterday, I saw Ubrica and I didn't blink. That's him. I don't think you'll rest if you want to die."

That's where I think differently.

But first, I sought approval from Raviel.

“First of all, is Raviel going to let me do my thing? ”

“Good.”

Raviel spoke of terms.

“If I die before my eyes. ”

"......."

“If you save yourself in front of my eyes, I'll let you. ”

I nodded.

“I'll do that. ”

2.

“Eat up, everyone. ”

The crystal walks in with a tray. Ubrica lifted the bowl with both hands. The menu is super-soaked. The bowl has dried noodles and frozen ice.

“I'll eat well. ”

One mouth, I sucked a hoof with soup.

A cool broth soup filled my mouth.

“…… it's delicious, right? ”

I was amazed.

“Wow, that's really good. I think you're a really good cook. ”

“I had supernoodles because it was hot. ”

The inscription said:

"Raviel's jewelry is too expensive to let down the table for a while. ”

"It's worth a gift. ”

Two days ago, Raviel gave me an Emerald Jewel for letting me stay home.

Even though I was outdoorsy about jewelry, it looked enormously expensive.

Initially, I refused to accept the insemination, but it is up to me to decide whether it is excessive or not. Do you intend to treat me as a beggar as a guest as your landlord?] finally stepped back.

The Duke of Ivanca. It's the most expensive family in the empire.

That family is my family.

Ahhhhhh.

“…… Abby. My face is so ugly. Why don't you stop whining while you eat? I'm seriously ashamed of myself as a son. ”

“By the way, how did you dispose of the jewels? ”

I turned the subject around.

“It won't be easy to change a gem for money as a student. ”

“One of my classmates I know is Imiho. the three daughters of the group that are touching the second financial and construction industries. She's also the daughter of local maintenance, so I asked her to dispose of her. ”

“Yes?"

Hey.

If local maintenance + second finance + construction.... Oh, hey.

"It's a gangster!? ’

Did you ask one of your gangster classmates to sell you jewelry?

"Really?"

I looked at the crystal eating noodles. I'm expressionless. I don't know what life is stored beyond that expression, but it will never be normal.

The crystal tilts its head.

“Is there something wrong? ”

“Uh-oh, no. I just thought friendship would be interesting.... Do you mind telling me all about this outside the box? ”

“Yes."

The amendment simply replied.

“Kim asked. ”

Mmm-hmm.

“... I want to make myself clear. Not because I'm special, but because I've been asked, of course I'll answer? ”

“Yes, I do. ”

I closed my mouth.

I've felt it since I met you yesterday.

‘This guy. There are no walls.’

Listens to everyone's questions or requests.

At least he's never refused me before. Not once.

Even when I wanted to meet and talk, when I asked if it would be okay to put Ubrica and Raviel to bed, the crystal accepted [Yes] without hesitation.

“Hey, Mr. Amethyst."

After dinner.

I decided to test my thinking.

“I'm sorry, can I ask you a favor? ”

“Yes, if I can help. ”

“Please sit on the table. ”

The head of the crystal tilts slightly.

The blonde slipped to the side of her head.

“The table is not where you sit, Mr. Kim. ”

“Yes. I'll keep that in mind. Please.”

"......."

The crystal slowly settles on the table.

"Hmm."

“Wuger?”

Raviel narrows his eyes as he looks at the two of us, and Ubrica opens her eyes wide.

I asked again, feeling strongly that my judgment was right.

“Can you put your hands on my head? ”

“Yes."

The crystal put its hand on my head.

I kept asking.

“I'm hungry. Give me some chicken skewers for dinner." ”

“…… Kim Gong-ja. ”

The crystal tilted me badly.

“Convenient use of me may have an adverse effect on you in the future. And late-night snacks are harmful to your health. In my judgment, Mr. Kim is not hungry, he's just doing these spells to understand my behavior. ”

“Yes, that's right. So please.”

"......."

The crystal nodded and brought a basket.

I really wanted to get out of the house to make a chicken skewers.

“Wait a moment. ”

Raviel grabs the shoulder of the crystal. As the situation got this far, even Raviel in the underworld couldn't help but interfere.

“Amethyst sheep. If a stranger on the street asks for a little help and asks you to follow him, will you follow him? ”

“Yes."

The Amethyst was positive.

“If only I could help. ”

“That would be a very extreme example, even if the request was to be placed in a foreign exchange facility for a year? ”

“Yes, if I can help. ”

Raviel shuts his mouth.

After a while, she muttered, "Yes."

“This... Dangerous.”

Raviel and I made eye contact.

I shared my intentions with her by nodding my head.

“Yes, it's dangerous, Raviel. ”

“... because you have a smart head, you can hide the truth from others. Able to identify the target's purpose. However, if the other person asks you sincerely, will you not reject it? No, I don't think you can resist at this level. ”

Raviel frowns.

“I was sure it was just an old tale. As the Confucius said, this child is the rider. At least, they are not human beings born and raised in the ordinary way."

“Yes, this is more like [written], not [formed]. ”

like an AI that reacts to conditions.

Just answering people's wishes.

“Mr. Amethyst."

I knelt on one knee in front of a little blonde child.

Then the eye level was adjusted.

The crystal glanced at me while holding the basket.

“I'm from another world. Raviel, Ubrica, everyone from around the world. ”

“I see.”

The face of the crystal remained unchanged even after listening to nonsense.

You nod lightly, as if you were familiar with it.

“Skill card, open. ”

I took out the golden card.

+

[Regret's reel clock]

Rank: EX

Effect: Automatically trigger when dead. 24 hours from the moment of death. Regression preserves memory and ability.

However, the higher the Hunter rank, the stronger the penalty will be.

A skill copied from Hunter Play.

+

I showed you the cards of my spleen as evidence.

“There are skills in our world. You can use your skills to move through space, and you can even turn back time. ”

"......."

“As you can see, I have skills that do not die. By presenting this skill, I would like to ask Mr. Amethyst. Please just kill me once. ”

“Why?”

“I believe you are the god of our worlds. ”

I confronted the crystal directly.

“Our gods plant handsets on their behalf, one for each world. The person who lived the most unfortunate life becomes a terminal candidate. ”

“You mean I'm the terminal? ”

“Yes."

And I started talking.

The story of me entering the tower. The story of the Prelate Teacher and Kim Yul. What happened in the tower, what I met with the teacher, what I met with Raviel. I gave my life as proof to the child in front of me.

"......."

It continued for over an hour and a half, but the crystal stared silently into my eyes.

I kept my mouth shut and waited for her reaction.

“…… According to Duke Kim, there is a good chance that I am a terminal in the tower. It makes sense to use contradictions to draw out managers and confront them. ”

The crystal reaches out.

“You're a hard worker. Kim Gong-ja.”

The dry fingers swept over my head.

“Not long ago, Kim Yul disappeared. ”

“Not only Kim Yul, but many people have disappeared. The people who harassed Kim Yul. No one noticed anything missing except me. I thought it was rare, but Kim Jong-ja explained it. ”

The crystal stroked my head.

"If you meet the passenger, you'll be happy to pass on my message. ”

“What kind of words? ”

“I'm happy. ”

The crystal said quietly.

I was stunned at the thought of that.

“I love this city, and I love the children who live in it. I love the wailing vixen in the summer and the sound of the radio coming from the old windows of my neighbor's house. ”

And I realized what I was missing.

The child in front of me was never something like AI.

I couldn't help but listen to the other person's questions and requests because I didn't have emotions.

It's just...

‘You look at all of us as [children]. ’

I only see them as children who need to take care of them.

Even the unidentified monsters who fell asleep in the warehouse.

I'm talking like this.

Even if you point out the wrong thing, you can't give up your last request.

In short, this child is a mother.

“So tell him not to worry about me. ”

“…… Yes. ”

I nodded.

“I'll be sure to pass it on. ”

“Give me the knife. ”

I gave you a dagger that was kicked to the waist.

The crystal was handed over and swung a few times.

He pointed at the edge of his blade as soon as he could feel it.

"......."

Raviel was watching me silently.

"Kim Gong-ja. I may not be able to die at once because I'm weak."

"I'm getting ready. It's not the first time I've experienced it..."

"If it hurts, I'm sorry. I apologize in advance. ”

Phew!

The cold iron pierced my throat before I could finish speaking.

Huh?

I split into pieces like a broken window.

During the onset of the excruciating pain in the cracks, I felt a sense of confusion in one corner of my head.

‘No, no matter what. Stabbing me in the neck without any cooling down time as a student.......'

My body twitched.

If I'm not mistaken, the crystal just wielded the dagger once more.

‘I mean…….'

In the torn field of view, the face of the crystal was still blank.

Her lips moved.

“Good luck to you. ”

I was knocked unconscious.

With the sound of my death, courtesy.

[You're dead.]

[Your current Hunter rank is Class B.]

.......

[Implement the trauma of the enemy that killed you.]

[Extract data from the original owner's memory.]

.......

[Failed.]

[Material for implementing the trauma has been rejected.]

[Requesting data from Zrakua... failed. Declined]

.......

[The trauma could not be implemented.]

[Request approval from Zrakua.]

[Failed.]

[Delegation to Zrakua denied.]

[This is not an agenda for Zrakua.]

.......

[Unable to cope.]

[‘Lord of all life' is realized.]

At that moment.

“----Oh my God.”

Someone.

No, something grabbed my chin.

Strongly.

“How disgusting. ”

It was the sound of a larynx, a sweet potato splashing all over the place after sleeping a few days in peach juice, finally picking it up and squeezing it hard.

“No matter how much I enjoy sprinkling coincidence in the spring and harvesting in the fall, this is really unexpected. ”

It was the sound of a hundred vipers wagging their thin tongues, as if the tip of a hundred broken tongues were digging into the ear sockets.

“How dare you peek into the past of the plaintiff. ”

I opened my eyes.

In the darkness, one girl smiles.

It looks just like the crystal that used to put my head in the old hanok. Except one.

“First, I convinced them of logic, and second, I pretended not to know my father. And the third time, it was a virtue. It was a comfort. Stupidly.”

Eyes.

“I have finally received my fourth today, and this is also the fault of the plaintiff. ”

[Owner of All Life] had a sparkly eye.

"However, the road is not straight, nor is the cheek recognized as a stone. Four Kings. I did something really interesting."

Purple is probably the darkest color to illuminate something.

However, the purple color of the tower was suddenly transparent even in the dark.

It was the brightness of the heart, not the face of man.

“How are we going to teach this cute little guy a lesson? ”

“I wouldn't recommend a silent mouth. If you know how far your predecessor can boil you, you'll realize there's nothing more foolish than keeping your mouth shut. Tell me about it.”

I opened my mouth.

“I've never formally met you. ”

And he smiled.

“Topside.”

I saw the face of the creature who built this tower for the first time.
