1.

The swarm of light surrounding me slowly loosens.

Sawaaaaaaaaang -

Though a faint sound resounded in his ears, the visible landscape was not so sacred.

Starting with the cluster of light wrapped around my head, my neck, shoulders, arms, and then the cluster of light wrapped around my legs and feet spread like silk.

‘Maybe those swarms of light are some skill. ’

Then whose life is there?

I feel a bit overwhelmed and let my silence fall…….

“Withdrawn! No way! ”

I couldn't watch.

A familiar princess's face pops up on the floor! It popped out.

Not only was the sound off, but the background was off, and there was a hole in the bottom, and there was, "Heave-ho! ’I came up the street. A ghost. A horror movie has hit the streets, and they finally got a job as a comedian. Too bad…….

“At the time, what were you really thinking? Why are you stopping here!? ”

A mysterious princess.

Daughter of the tower and pillar that bears the tower itself.

Except for the rider, perhaps the most powerful girl, released her stress by shaking her usual pillow.

“Is something wrong? Huh? My king, are you pretending to be a quitter and setting up another scare? She trusts you. Come on, tell me! ”

“No.”

I daresay.

“I'm really giving up. ”

“What! What!? ”

The princess lit up.

“I'm not snoring at my meals! After raising those kids so desperately! Now the real designators are ready to unify the continent. But why, why do you want to quit......"

“They don't like kids. ”

“Huh?"

I sat in a white chair. This space, where only white spaces are spread out to the horizon, is surprisingly convenient, if you think [I wish I had a chair there].

As I sat in the chair, tea and cups appeared as if I was waiting.

“Hmm."

I picked up the tea and smelled it. It was really stylish peach tea. So let me put it this way...

"......."

After three generations of dedicated service, the knighthood of Ripton Ice Tea led to a great victory and finally received the official Noble Bookshelf.

Mmm-hmm.

I tasted the tea with my head held high.

“I don't know when the metaphor for my food will become luxurious.... ”

“Phew..."

“Don't sigh, princess. I just want to sigh. ”

Perhaps I regained my dignity as a nobleman after seeing my socialist attitude.

The princess sat down across from me with her forehead down. Seeing the shrugging of my shoulders, the bruising was like a momentary delay.

“Well, in the meantime, wouldn't that be a luxury? When I was a kid, I was touched by three dollars a year when I ate pizza, but when I got older, I was shocked by five pizzas. ”

“There's pork and spicy chicken in the world, princess. ”

“Yes. So the basic unit of flavor I have right now is the marinated chicken. You know, compared to when you were a kid, you really had a fancy tongue. ”

Such a luxurious tongue.

‘Nobles of the realm... No, the pillars of the tower. ’

As a person who had lived a life on the clouds like a princess, you couldn't imagine having to count how many Tteokbokki I gave on the street... when you were thinking the same thing.

The princess said with her pillow in her arms.

“But also, the tastiest was the miso stew my mom made for me. ”

“There's some miso stew. ”

“Yes, it was a special flavor that I couldn't express even with a few seasoned chickens. It was literally a taste for memories. That's why I keep asking you to boil it. ”

“I understand. I often recall the rice I had soaked with sesame oil and soy sauce in the egg furai the Prelate sent me. In fact, before I challenged him to the 31st floor, I asked him a few times to eat it. ”

If the family members were in place, Estelle would ask them something like, "Do you boil the stew to become a passenger," and Sylvia would say, "Are you really a nobleman of the princess's house...?" Say, 'Kim Yu-ri' and make yourself an egg rice, Gaju. You don't have hands or feet. Stop pushing my friend. ’I would have been scolded, but that didn't happen.

It's a metaphorical device that reveals that only me and the princess are sitting here, not the family members.

- Son of a bitch...

[Deeply silent glitters and coalesces with the sword.]

Let's not worry about these two, as always.

Anyway, it was when the princess and I who lived in different economic classes made dramatic agreements.

‘Huh.'

Suddenly, my head felt a little dizzy.

A countermeasure that was triggered against the Serpent.

Suddenly, it blinked before my eyes without any notice.

I was drawn to the dream without even the slightest chance of rejection.

2.

- Baby.

It's like looking into someone's past in trauma.

- The daughter of Su-in…….

It was dark underground.

Around the time I wasn't a passenger, the autopsied bird was taking care of someone with a face I had never shown before.

He was a little boy.

It was much smaller than now, but I recognized it as a [Wonder Girl].

- My beloved daughter.

that the person who would be the goddess of the tower would swoon her cheeks at the child.

- Yeah, let's go home. Let's go to bed, Mom.

The girl who is a mysterious princess and is not yet the general manager of this stage, fluttered her cheeks.

"......."

I stared blankly into a waking dream.

The place where the mother and daughter slapped each other was a sanctuary. Therefore, I felt that no one should dare to come near me. There was compassion in the tower's eyes that looked down at her, and there was a tearful compassion there for some reason.

That's probably one of God's shyness.

God and God's daughter held hands and left somewhere. That was it.

I had no idea where they were going and why they said [let's go home] in the waking dream that Ban Sin 'an showed me.

Just as the two of them emerged from the dark basement, they went up a staircase somewhere.

"......."

Tuk,

I lost my pertussis.

3.

I blinked.

In a place where dreams were cut off, reality was continuing.

“---So, I'm pretty good at cooking, too? ”

The mysterious princess was excited and said.

“When you rank an item in a dish I made, it's EX. It can't be any other grade than EX. Anyway, I inherited my mother's handiwork. If I make seasoned chicken instead of miso stew with that hand... if it serves as a taste of memories. It's already a tasty revolution, my king. Princess is cooking! It will be an epic journey to extract about 200 novels... ”

The princess boasted of what she wanted to say, as if she had never noticed that I had a waking dream.

I was troubled by the eyes of such a princess. It wasn't just because I was tuned into a frightening revolution plan.

I've been thinking about the phenomenon I just saw.

‘Is this also a fragment of the trauma that the occupant has? ’

A lifetime of trauma is a lifetime of trauma.

He collected not only his own trauma, but the trauma of others, and even created a myriad of parallel worlds under the assumption that [if something else had happened]. In each parallel world, the crystal saved, died, tortured, or slaughtered someone.

‘All those memories are potentially hidden from me now. ’

Perhaps the conjecture you came up with against the Serpent is correct.

‘Even now.’

There's a huge amount of data that I can't consciously conceive of.

Sometimes, it seems unconscious, like a dream.

‘I'm in trouble.’

Maybe you can see a future landscape that will happen decades later, and maybe you can see events that happened hundreds of years ago in a world that has nothing to do with me.

No, or maybe the world will look like [that world], where play was with the crystal.

What should I call it instead of calling it a white dream?

‘That's why I was told to stop you. ’

A smile was made in my heart.

When I declared to see the trauma in the tower, the tower stopped me at all costs. Offering another gift or reward, I asked you not to look at your trauma alone.

- Please.

- You'll be torn apart.

The tower exclaimed.

Now, I think I understand the significance of the warning.

I drank a sip of the ultra-evolved version of Lipton Iced Tea and looked at the princess.

“Princess.”

“Huh? Why, when do I get to taste it? I'm sorry, Emperor, but first I need you to cook something that will convince me. In other words, I'm a cartoonist. When you've made the best dishes, I've made the dishes that go beyond them lightly to greatly expand the worldview --”

“No, the princess...... really likes her mother. ”

The princess stopped.

A moment later, a smile appeared on his mouth.

“Yes, I love you. ”

It was a smile without delay.

“You were born a daughter of God. Have you ever felt anything, like, overwhelming or anything like that? Why? Normally, I'd like to be born in a normal family. ”

“Hahaha. What, that. ”

The princess smiled at the cup of tea.

“Well, okay. I was gonna guess you gave up. I'll put you in touch with the Four Kings. ”

“What's it really like? Living as God's daughter. ”

“Hmmm. A mother's child, very happy! ”

The princess moved in.

“But one of the questions that the tetrarch asked was wrong. You know, the same question. That's not working for me...... No, not for my mother's children. ”

“Yes?”

“We're all children who can only be born to their mothers. ”

I don't know what that means. I tilted my head.

The princess glanced at me over a cup of tea while sipping tea.

“It's hard to understand at once, isn't it? So imagine this. ”

Next to the teacup was a glass pot with cubed sugar.

The princess opened the lid of the pot, tapped with a thin finger, and picked up the sugar cube at the top.

“Once born, there is a [special] human being who slaughters people unconditionally. ”

The raised sugar slowly comes out of the pot.

“No matter what world you're born in, this man is the same. ”

The sugar cube that was transferred onto the cup fell, thumping and making a sound.

“Destroy people, burn them, destroy the country, destroy the continent. ”

The brown sugar in the tea melted.

“Which world. No matter how you're born under a parent, it doesn't change. This person is really, really special in that sense. ”

It's a wish I had once held on to a master.

It was any demonic beings who imagined that play was inexcusable from the moment they were born, or, if possible, from the moment they were born.

“No one can open him up. No one can make this man understand love. No one can convince him, no one can convince him, ”

The princess took the cup to her mouth.

By the time the tea cup had gone down on the table, I had already anticipated the conclusion, and the conclusion I had guessed was horrifying.

My back became cold.

“That……."

“There are 24 [special] people in the entire Samran statue. ”

The princess grinned.

“There are 24 of my mother's children. ”

“Well, the eldest of them all. In our kingdom, even the Four Kings have been called White Circulation Crystal. I can't because my brothers are such troublemakers! ”

I was silent.

Between the installments, the owner of this tower mutters a motto he always recites.

“[There is no human born wrong]... ”

“Yes!”

The princess claps her hands.

“My mom's kind of an idiot, right? Anyway, she only brought in kids who were going to be born that way, so she made them her own. ”

“And she shared her love with us all. ”

The princess winked playfully.

“That's as far as I go. ”

“Limits……? ”

“We now know the feeling of love. But I only love you. We have very different scales than other people, so when we hang the whole world on either side of the scale and our mothers on each side, it's too simple for her to bear the weight. Well, the world is less than a feather. ”

Oh, I see.

That is.

Contrary to my relationship with the designees as a father,

"Yes."

The princess in front of me, the daughter of God.

“For example, if I don't tear down the towers right now, just because my mom asked me not to, ”

It is completely dependent on its parents.

A princess in a parent-child relationship that was completely different from me smiled brightly.

“Don't worry. Even though we break Mom's request, sometimes as a joke.... I didn't really do anything to grieve her. There are some crazy people, but they can't get into the tower, so don't worry. ”

"......."

“So what was it... Oh, right. Why do you want to quit, king? Only two steps left for the Designated Nation to retake the continent! It doesn't make sense to just drop it there, Mal! ”

I calmed down.

Perhaps just now, the princess did not realize the look on her face.

The moment I said [I'm going to tear down the tower], the princess's eyes... no. Let's not talk. Who would benefit from expressing evil spirits? There is no need to unravel the curse that is sealed in solitude.

The Princess is the stage manager. I'm the one going up the stage.

The relationship between the two of us, once and for all, will be enough.

“Like I said, they hated it. ”

“The children hated the designators? Is that why you quit? ”

“Yes."

I nodded.

“We encouraged the designees to help you. Not just in war. It's a war where people die. Who wouldn't want help? And the designators said," This is our job. "”

“Hmm.”

“Kids are already making their own way. What happens there, the mistakes...... even the deaths, they think they can and should bear. And he's good at it. ”

I smiled a little as I recalled the council chairman of this era who responded to Ubrica in such a way that [his ancestors were cool off].

“I've grown up. ”

"......."

“You can't interfere with what I'm about to tell those kids. Of course, I'm not interfering, so there could be more damage. That's sad and angry…… but unless the children of the designated tribe ask for help first, I will be watching them everywhere. ”

With luck and skill, I have succeeded in raising the Designated Clan to be the best on the continent.

But I don't want to say, 'This is all because of me who raised you,' or, 'You have to know me as God,' or, 'I don't want to hear about it.'

‘That's it.’

The mission of escorting children from the outside world ends here.

Designated tribes stood on the ground on their own feet.

They made sure that they didn't need more than their arm strength to defeat the enemies in front of them, and that they didn't need to borrow God's shoulders to get to their destination.

Then all God can do is stand back and watch over them.

“But!? Aren't you just worried or curious!? ”

The princess dug up a pillow.

“For example, which of the remaining classes will come!? What will the remaining one evolution look like for the designees!? What are the delayed rewards!? ”

“To answer your question, we know who the rest of the class are. ”

This is natural.

Before I came back, I saw a play that cleared up to 40 floors.

‘Especially since the 37th floor [World Quest]. ’

As it is no longer a local mission, it will not deviate greatly from what I know.

“We also know about rewards. ”

I once told my colleagues in the tower that not knowing the rewards for clearing a tier is a riddle.

This will be revealed as soon as 40 floors are cleared.

Also, because of that.

“I'm not worried about not meeting the last of the evolved designators. ”

I said with conviction.

“The tetrarch will stand down on the 36th floor. Wonderful princess. ”

"......."

“And soon we will begin our ascent again, and we will save your mother as we promised before. ”

I shrunk my head.

“So, please, ”

"......."

“Allow me to set those children free. ”

Long.

A long silence followed.

The princess sighed and looked at me. I mean, without a hitch. Suddenly, all the scents of the tea subsided and all the temperatures of the tea evaporated. They gazed at each other with their hearts hidden, for several minutes, slowly, and the princess opened her lips.

“Yes."

The princess smiled bitterly.

“The Goblins are independent before me. ”

Along with the quiet sigh, the tower's voice is heard.

[Withdraw from the stage.]

[The Four Kings abstain from the 36th floor stage.]

[‘Wonder Girl’ acknowledges the king's abstinence!]

There you go.

Kids.

This is your time.
