The Tutorial Is Too Hard

Yong-yong woke up.]

Hotch said.

용용이 still need to wake up.

I'll let you get some sleep.

I just told him I knew.

It is inevitable that Hotch doesn't take Yeon-hee's position lightly.

That's what happened in the contest.

In fact, Hotch didn't want to meet Yeon-hee before that.

I just wanted us to leave her alone if possible.

“Ceresia.”

“Yes, sir. ”

Serenia, who has been a human being for a really long time, replied.

Somehow she looks awkward.

She would, too.

“Let's go. You don't have to protect the seal anymore. ”

“Am I turning white again? ”

I'm afraid so.

Ceresia's role is now to be handed over to someone else.

“You've done well. ”

Serenia nods without saying a word of comfort.

You take her to the portal on the 60th floor.

The portal was being powered at the exact moment.

And someone who has waited a really, really long time to show up through the portal.

“It's been a long time, sir. ”

It was a well-rounded attitude.

It seemed like an impersonated attitude, but this was enough.

I shrugged and asked.

“We just met. ”

“I've met you a few times. ”

It was ambiguous.

She's met me a few times.

Welcome to the 17th floor. I met Hotch a while back.

I'll have to tell you later that Hotch is completely different from me.

When I taught her about self-immolation, there were quite a few things missing.

I only taught him as much as I needed to.

“By the way, I waited six months, and then I came in on the day I was six months old. ”

“Yes. I wanted to come later because I felt like it. ”

Otherwise I would have escaped like I promised.

Lee Yeon-hee, who heard me, shook her head.

“I wish. There are people who want to push me away somehow. I feel like an endoscope. Why the colonoscopy? ”

She said with a bloody smile.

“Come on, I'll show you. Oh, this is Serena. She's on the 26th floor. Have you met her? ”

* * *

Lee Yeon-hee was not interested in her.

Just like Ceresia.

Instead, I looked closely at the view on the 60th floor.

“It's a lot different than I used to know. I was told that the 60-story residential area was not like this. ”

“I fixed it several times. After all these years. ”

It wasn't for remodeling, it was for rebuilding.

Lee Yeon-hee looked around really carefully.

Rather than being curious and curious about the shape of the 60th floor.

To fill her with the myriad of gazes.

I panicked as I saw Yeon-hee come through the portal.

I knew they'd come looking for the gods.

Honestly, I didn't know there were that many.

How many of those are there?

In front of Yeon-hee Lee, there will still be a message informing her of the gods' reactions.

“Hello."

The windows on the second floor of the building opened and greeted us as Dragon was walking down the street.

Oh, it's beautiful, my son.

“I met him the other day, 용용이 kita. ”

“… Yes. ”

The dragon waving his hand was standing next to the hoch with a fat face.

Lee Yeon-hee was unable to respond to the greeting.

“Say hello. ”

Lee Yeon-hee waved her hand to Dragon with an attitude that fell awkward and uncomfortable.

It was ridiculous what it looked like.

“That's my room. Remember the location. ”

Lee Yeon-hee turned her head slightly to the side without answering.

I didn't want to talk anymore.

Ceresia has joined Hoch and Yong-yong.

I took her to the place where I had prepared Yeon-hee Lee.

“I'm leaving tomorrow, so I'll just stay here today. ”

I have already talked to Yeon-hee about this part.

I take one day off and then I leave the next day.

“How are you feeling? ”

“… Yes? ”

Lee Yeon-hee's reaction is slow.

Of course, the eyes of the gods were the main reason, but I thought, is it a matter of condition?

“I heard Yong-yong beat you up a bit, but you still have some aftermath? ”

“… Yes. I sent myself on purpose because it was dangerous, but I didn't think I'd suffer the consequences. ”

Of course you did.

I have taught you, but the growth of dragons is not really a joke.

Sometimes I'm surprised.

I really want to be Hatchling, who was born a few years ago.

“He seems stronger than the dragon in the vaccine. ”

“Of course. By the way, you've met the dragon. ”

Lee Yeon-hee replied.

I wanted to continue this conversation.

I needed to lighten the mood.

It is not good for Yeon-hee to be overly nervous and be vigilant.

I grabbed the memory of the dragon I met on the other side of the 50th floor, which I had almost forgotten.

Starting with the story of the dragon, I talked about what happened on the stage naturally.

Soon, I and Yeon-hee were both able to focus on the story.

It was not difficult.

People with a common denominator can easily form and talk about empathy.

As long as it has the features of Hell difficulty.

To me, Yeon-hee Lee, and to Yeon-hee Lee I was the only person on Earth who had a common denominator and could empathize with her.

I was able to draw out stories of people who were isolated and needed empathy and comfort all the time.

Even countries that were weak in communication were able to do this.

“The 17th floor was dangerous, but it wasn't that hard. Difficult and dangerous come separately. ”

Yeah, it is.

The stages that I was in danger went through were cooler than I thought.

“The sixth floor was the worst. ”

I had to agree with that.

It was also a topic that came out when I spoke with Lee Hyung-jin and John Overton in the United States.

The worst stage on Hell difficulty.

We were all on the sixth floor.

In a narrow, dark tunnel.

You have to slap endless skeletons with a stench.

There is only a tightly closed door behind the back, and the door fails as soon as it opens.

It's a stage where we desperately have to wait for reinforcements.

It's a stage where reinforcements come too late and they have to solve everything on their own.

A stage that saves others' absence for the first time.

It is a more painful stage because of the isolation that no one in the world can help, not the loneliness that comes from the absence of communication.

Pretending to do everything without anyone's help seems independent, autonomous, and proactive.

Positively.

But in fact, it was never a positive thing.

Everyone needs to interact with others

The Hell difficulty level 6 also informs the challenger that the exchange is completely cut off.

I don't know about the challengers in other dimensions, but at least the Earth's tutorial did.

“I think it was the hardest time being locked up on the sixth floor for months. How was your day? ”

Well, it was nothing.

He was half mad.

“You've improved your immune skills. It was expected to grow steadily and progress gradually. ”

If it were, it would have been completely insane, not half.

Like you did on the 60th floor here.

“But I'm better than you. ”

“Really?"

“I survived the fun of exchanging letters with you every day. Remember those letters? ”

Hmm...

Of course I remember.

[Hey, isn't that what you're talking about? Zara, something.]

That's what I'm talking about.

Shit, they're talking about the other floor, not the sixth.

[My conscience is aching.]

Shut up.

I confronted Hotch.

What am I supposed to say?

I was rolling my head looking for a horse to surround me, but Lee Yeon-hee was the one who said it first.

“I'm grateful to you. I was disappointed that much. We made it here alive. I would have died a long time ago without you. Maybe he didn't make it to the first floor. ”

I appreciate you saying that.

My conscience is starting to hurt.

“I blame you... for deceiving me, but I don't regret listening to you. I mean it.”

* * *

“This is why I didn't like it. ”

Hotch grumbled.

He was like this before, I was confused when I heard it.

“It's a blur of hatred. I really don't like it, but I keep apologizing. ”

“Yes, yes, it's entirely my fault. ”

Yong-yong who was listening quietly next to me shouted.

“No! It's not your fault! ”

“Yes, it's not my fault! ”

I shouted according to Yong Yong's words.

Actually, I was right.

Damn it.

But that was my limit back then.

What can I do now that I was lacking?

“I'm not the wrong person.... ”

I stroked the dragon's head.

Yong was also right.

I'm not the one who caused this problem.

I didn't make the 61st floor and tutorial.

I didn't set that rule.

I'm not the one who brought Yeon-hee here.

I, Yeon-hee Lee, have just been pushed into the same environment as this dog.

There is only a difference between how we behaved and how we prepared ourselves.

But when it comes to the relationship between Yeon-hee Lee and me.

Just that the world was wrong, that the gods were wrong.

So I couldn't help but think it wasn't my fault.

It doesn't help to justify that.

“Why?”

I thought about how to explain it before answering the dragon to ask again.

It was too important for me to say what I could think of.

“My fault and my sin are just as precious to me as what I did well. Even if it's someone else's problem, it doesn't help to turn over your sins and sins entirely to someone else. Not for the wrong person, but for yourself. ”

I don't know if it's a good explanation.

I don't think you should see the face of the confused dragon.

Fortunately, there was someone else who understood my words rather than dragons.

It was Hotch.

[It's a good heart. Then apologize to me again in a long time.]

[Yeah, I'm sorry.]

[Wow, you don't look sorry.]

Hotch laughs as he says.

Maybe that's why Hotch forgives you and makes you feel like family.

[Oh, no. I haven't forgiven you yet. You're going to starve me to death until I'm old.]

I don't know when he'll die of old age.

I'm even more curious whether he will die.

Yong seemed to have finished thinking while talking with Hotch.

용용이 again looked at me and asked.

“Then the one who's really wrong, the one who's in trouble, no one punishes. ”

Oh, Yong Yong, that's not it.

“I mean, you have to make your own mistakes. I didn't ask you to cover for me. ”

”And who's really wrong? Who made the first problem? ”

“Of course they'll pay for their mistakes, too. ”

용용이 was still not unraveling something.

Yong who was a little more concerned asked again.

“Those who do wrong will not be punished themselves. ”

Yes, it is.

That's what I thought.

Now they're like, "I think we've been too hard on the tutorial challengers. Now, what are the chances of reflecting and paying? ’

I didn't even make the tutorial like this in the first place.

“Then we should punish him. ”

“Who?”

To Yong Yong who opens his eyes and asks me.

And I told the gods who were listening to us through Yeon-hee Lee.

“Me.”

* * *

Enter stage 61.]

After a day's rest, I headed to the 61st floor stage.

Lee Yeon-hee seemed to have given up everything and resigned.

I was faithful to the role of the poor heroine who was destined to be sacrificed.

However, it was easy to know that she did not intend to be sacrificed by Yeon-hee.

She was in a full-blown combat position.

[Entrance number (2243/50)]
