Turns Out To Be a Genius Duelist

“ ……. ”

There was also a choice to go up to the next floor after just being tested.

Yoon-suk Hana came to the square.

It was because once you went up the stairs, you could never come back to the square downstairs.

What if the seventh floor is as messy as the sixth?

I had to make it clean.

That way the garbage won't flow up.

It's just...

‘I didn't want to worry. ’

The square was full of challengers, and everyone was relaxed in their faces. Just like in the six-story square before the corruption that was passed down to Jang Il.

“Wow, this is truly amazing! I can't believe you even sell ice cream here! ”

I wonder if he was a challenger who arrived around the same time.

I heard someone muttering in awe of Yoon-suk.

I felt strangely familiar with his voice.

As if I had just heard....

Huh?

Instinctively, Yoon-suk looked back and flawed.

At the same time, the duel is over. It may not seem silly, but there is a gentleman standing there.

He froze briefly as he met Yoon-suk, then caught his breath.

“Hehe! Hehe! Hehe! Keheheheh!”

A reaction that seems to have been seen by a ghost of resemblance.

As Yoon-suk, my taste became bitter, but I approached him instead of avoiding him.

Before, there was a feeling of hypocrisy that was hard to describe.

But I was also in the middle of a duel, so I just went ahead with it.

But now I couldn't help but worry.

“… Did you just say ice cream? ”

I thought Yoon-suk was trying to hurt me.

The Demibeast is furious and responds with a quickfire.

“Hey, guys! Can you see their hands? That's what I call ice cream! It's so soft in the middle like ice, it's one of the delicacies! ”

It was not a question I wanted to explain.

Yoon-suk also knows what ice cream is.

I just wondered how the Demibeast knew about it.

As Yoon-suk's glance deepened, the Demibeast became even more desperate.

“Really! I didn't mean to insult you or anything, I'm just curious to sell it here.... ”

Having heard that, one thing became more clear.

I didn't come across it in a chat room.

This Demibeast definitely knows ice cream.

“Where are you from? ”

“I'm from Seilanbard, but...? ”

“Do you have ice cream there? ”

The question of Yoon-suk answered as if the Demibeast had been greatly insulted.

“Well, that can't be right! Ice cream is Earth's food! Not to mention the culinary scene in Serranbad, but a terrible place in the hot summers and cold winters! ”

It was a little ridiculous.

I wonder if this Demibeast is from Segerranbad.

Or is he from Earth?

I don't know.

Why does seeing that Demibeast remind me of a foreign talent who used to appear on Korean TV shows often?

Yoon-suk became confused.

So I changed my voice a little bit without even knowing it.

“How do you know the food on Earth when you're from Sheheranbard? ”

The Demibeast shrugs and replies.

“Th-that's why I live here...? ”

… what is it?

* * *

At first, I thought he was playing a prank on himself.

But it wasn't.

“Do you know why most challengers do not return to the dimension they saw? ”

“Yes, because it's hard to survive as a powerless body..." ”

“You know exactly what I mean. Yes. And I was a challenger who couldn't return for the same reason. I don't want to say it with my mouth... That's why I chose to flee to Earth. ”

“Running away, is that possible? ”

“That's more like it. Don't you sell everything you need to open up a shop on the fifth floor? ”

Then Yoon-suk understood everything.

Even though I am from Sheheranbad, there is no lie in the words of the Demibeast that says Earth is where I live.

* Dimension Registration - additionally register one of the following dimensions: Segerranbad, Killian, Moorish, and District. Can be selected when return ticket is used.

Sale Price: 500 LP

Why didn't I think of this before?

Why didn't the other challengers think as soon as they saw this item?

Earth is different from other dimensions.

Instead of being weak because of my weaknesses, my abilities alone are superhuman, so there is no danger.

But he also had a civilization that enhanced the quality of life.

I hate repetitive fights, but is there somewhere more attractive for a challenger who has nowhere else to go?

Yoon-suk asked the Demibeast while saving his own insight.

“… and how long have you been on Earth? ”

“Half a year. Happiness on Earth was all it was, but it was far too risky to invest in AP beyond that. ”

“If you've been here for half a year, have you met challengers like yourself? ”

“Of course, did you just meet him? There's a bunch of runaways on the planet. Very sticky.”

It seems that there are more challengers in other dimensions who have settled on Earth than we thought.

Because of that, Yoon-suk had a new question.

If you have not committed a crime, you must work and make money to live on Earth.

Then why did they live for half a year without revealing their identity?

The answer was simple.

It was helped by the government.

“In most countries, challengers are a valuable resource. Thanks to that, we were treated with extreme secrecy. Sometimes it was enough to go out and catch a few monsters. ”

In the previous world, Yoon-suk met with groups related to challengers.

They were already aware of and managing challengers from another dimension.

Long before Yoon-suk was dragged into the Tower of Perforation.

“But……. I've been wondering, can I ask you a question? ”

Did he consider that there are many people around him and that Yoon-suk himself is not as dangerous as he thinks?

The Demibeast has asked me carefully.

Yoon-suk gladly nodded his head thanks for answering the question in detail, even though it was a one-way question.

The Demibeast asked.

“Are you from Earth? ”

Yoon-suk, who was thinking for a moment, agreed to his question.

It was meaningless to cheat anyway.

I wouldn't have asked this question in the first place if I wasn't convinced by the conversation ahead.

However…….

“ ……! ”

I didn't think the Demibeast's mouth would stay open for so long.

* * *

“Oh, I'm sorry. I was so surprised I couldn't see you. ”

It's not polite to put people in front of you, but a demented Demibeast apologizes.

Yoon-suk is an apple. It seemed good.

I just wondered why I was so surprised.

“You can't say this in front of the masked ball, but challengers from Earth are too weak. Other trials are much better, but in the case of a duel, the challenger up to the fifth floor is the best. ”

Demibeast said he was a top-notch player when he was on Earth. He also explained that all of the top powers are immigrants.

However, Yoon-suk was different.

Strong, too strong.

If we go back to Earth like this, I don't know how all the top immigrants will be able to fight back.

“Moreover, because of the environment, most people from Earth are very fragile. Whereas the ball... ”

The Demibeast carefully gives you a blurry eye.

Yoon-suk did not ask again what that meant.

Even so, Yoon-suk knew.

How his actions on the battlefield compare to those of a Demibeast who lived on Earth.

“It's a pity we met like this, but you haven't made any sense yet. Tehern Fahur. It's first and last, but I don't care. Call me at your earliest convenience. ”

The Demibeast reveals his name first.

Yoon-suk Hana hesitated.

It would have been easier if there were another dimension of existence, but it would have been awkward for the Demibeast associated with the Earth to reveal their names.

The Demibeast, Fahur, smiled proudly and resolved the awkward mood.

“Haha! You don't have to tell me your name. But if you keep going, I'll call you Ball. ”

Eventually, I came to a compromise.

It's parting time anyway, but Pahur has come up with a new offer.

“It's amazing to meet a trendy person in a place like this, wouldn't you like to move in with them? ”

Trends?

I wanted to fix up your hometown, not Earth, but Segerranbad...

Yoon-suk decided not to do it.

I nodded and accepted his offer.

In fact, I didn't have a reason to hold on much longer and ask questions like that, which is great. I was going to learn more about the situation on Earth at this opportunity.

As a purely Earth-oriented man, his pride is deteriorating, but what he knows more about today's planet seems to be the fahur.

“Why don't you start with a convertible and eat something sweet? I'm stressed out and out of sugar. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. ”

Whether it was fear of itself or not, Yoon-suk followed behind him, smiling deeply at Fahur's ambiguous reaction. He seemed to be very familiar with the square.

“Oh, come to think of it, I wasn't considerate. Do you know what currency exchange is? ”

“I've heard of you in the square on the 6th floor. You can redeem points to buy necessities or build buildings……. ”

“Square on the 6th floor? Have you been there? ”

I don't know. Maybe I should just go.

The seed of evil was even bloodthirsty to prevent it from growing again.

“I heard that if a Duel Challenger goes there, he won't see anything good.... ”

“You'll be fine from now on. ”

In response, Fahur, who was tilting his head for a moment, stopped his mouth.

And I no longer put the topic in my mouth.

It was like he understood the meaning of Yoon-suk's words.

“ ……. ”

They walk the streets in an awkward static.

Meanwhile, Yoon-suk looked around and captured the image of the seventh floor square in his eyes.

It was different from the sixth floor, which was full of empty buildings around the square and also had a small number of buildings.

I felt a sense of life in the buildings, and I could see challengers wandering the streets every few steps.

Yoon-suk carefully looked over their heads.

Even in a peaceful place, those marked with judgment are rare.

However, Yoon-suk did not draw his sword immediately. Suddenly, I was reminded of a question I had never asked before.

Is the sign of judgment absolute?

Just as people were born and tend to be different, some people were born that way in nature.

Of course, that doesn't erase the sins committed.

But nature is nature.

What if we could suppress nature and live a normal life all our lives?

What if you've never bullied anyone before and you don't even recognize their nature?

“ ……. ”

Yoon-suk decided to hold off for now.

Judging them won't be too late after you learn more about the seventh-floor square.

I wonder how far you've walked.

Yoon-suk and Fahur arrived in front of a shabby building.

“This is the money changer. Redeem points from each trial for currency. There's a rumor that the employee is the manager, but I'm not sure if that's true. ”

When I opened the money changer door and went inside, I noticed a clean interior, unlike a shabby exterior.

Surprisingly, it was several times wider than what I had seen outside.

Since there were so many people, Yoon-suk picked and waited for the waiting ticket. The waiting time was not too long.

Soon, it was Yoon-suk's turn.

“Just give me 5,000 AP. ”

“Yes, I understand……? ”

Fahur said there was a flaw in the staff who moved quickly.

It was the same with Yoon-suk.

Employees and Yoon-suk checked each other and remained firm.

The employee was the one who woke up fast. The staff quickly opened the hood to cover their faces.

But it didn't work.

I tried to cover my face anyway.

In the beginning, Yoon-suk didn't even know the face in the hood. Yoon-suk once again examined the money changer.

And I was convinced.

“ ……. ”

Hood all the way down the nose.

Bright redness that flows through the hood.

A feminine curve that shows its presence even when it is a flat lobe.

No, there couldn't have been another gorgeous robe with red, white and gold embroidery.

“… El? Why are you here? ”

“El, I'm not...? ”

El was right by the money changer.

Yoon-suk was speechless.

I didn't think the ‘extra work' I said at the time would mean this....
