After barely escaping from being chased by the mutants, the Avatar’s dark history was burned and returned to Janey.
Janey was quietly waiting next to the Awaken crew. The blank look on her face made her look like she had just witnessed me take out a giant mutant.
Well, unlike before, he must have had his eyes open, so he couldn’t have missed seeing the laser-like stream of flame shooting up into the sky.
‘Gather everyone together Maria.’
-yes.
“Uh… ?”
As Maria gathered the crew according to my command, Janey suddenly made a sound of confusion at the sight of them gathering around us.
I was planning to explain it to Janey later, so I didn’t say anything, but instead touched the shoulders of the members gathered around me and put it back in my inventory.
“Suddenly, it disappeared… ?”
And Janey’s shocked expression got even worse when she saw me pulling the Elysion Police Special Forces vehicle out of thin air.
I opened the door with ESPD written on the side and reached out to Janey.
“Get on, I’ll tell you as I go.”
“Where… ?”
“Anywhere. First of all, I don’t think staying here longer is a good choice.”
I said as I looked at the refugee camp that had been devastated.
Even in some of the areas I burned down, the fences collapsed and many people died.
There were a few soldiers who survived thanks to my handling of the giant mutants, but all they did was clean out the remaining regular mutants.
If an attack like this were to happen to the camp again, it would be the end. If they weren’t stupid, they would probably be planning to withdraw.
“We attracted too much attention here. If you stay, only troublesome things will happen.”
“… okay. Okay.”
Janey nodded slightly at my explanation and held my hand. I picked Janey up first and sat next to her.
The interior of the police special forces vehicle was surprisingly spacious. To be honest, since it is a vehicle used by the police, the exterior was a bit rough, but I liked the spacious interior.
Originally, this space was full of various equipment, but now it was all stored separately in my inventory.
‘Maria, drive.’
-Where shall we go?
‘hmm… Let’s go near the capital of Hadar Kingdom.’
-All right.
Maria was in charge of driving. When I first put the car in New Kind’s inventory, I was a little worried about when I would practice driving. However, it turns out that the default setting for cars in the future world is autonomous driving. This meant that artificial intelligence could control the car. Unless the settings were adjusted separately, the steering wheel itself did not even appear in the driver’s seat.
Wow~
With a small noise, the vehicle rose into the air.
New Kind’s regular cars had altitude restrictions and could only rise on their own on certain roads, but police vehicles did not.
-If you happen to chase a criminal, there is a generous height limit so you can pursue it regardless of traffic conditions, and there is no need for a separate road.
And its height could easily surpass the fence of a refugee camp.
-It is difficult to fly over the tall trees in the forest. First, I’ll run along the road.
‘okay. do it yourself.’
Maria knew the approximate direction of the destination because she received a map obtained from the remains of the city hall in the Kingdom of Halem.
The car that crossed the fence started moving along the road while only slightly rising from the ground. Perhaps because it can be driven regardless of the road surface, the ride quality was quite comfortable.
Janey’s eyes lit up when she saw the futuristic interior design of the car. Then, when the car rose into the sky and crossed over the fence, I was astonished and gaped.
‘hmm… ‘If I increase my inventory in the future, I’ll have to add things like container homes.’
Cars can certainly be put in the inventory, but it was unclear whether container homes could also be included. If not, you can put in a suitable camping car or trailer.
It was a thought that came to mind after seeing Janey’s scruffy appearance.
“… Please explain.”
Janey looked out the window with an expression of disbelief for a while, then calmed down and asked me.
“Minho: I knew that you usually took out a surprising number of things from your bag or pocket. However, this is not just thorough preparation, but a new ability… No, there were various kinds of supernatural abilities in the first place, but I have never heard of such a supernatural ability. Also, this is the first time I have heard of awakening two special abilities. How on earth is this possible?”
Janey looked at me with very confused eyes.
“… … .”
I was silent for a moment, choosing what to say to her.
There was something I always thought about while dealing with mutants until I came here.
The question was what to do with Janey.
If she had her own dreams or goals and the world seemed normal, there was no need to worry at all. Just supporting it would have been enough.
However, the current Janey did not meet any of the above conditions.
Since I took EDP-427 and was controlled by the kingdom not long ago, I couldn’t have any personal dreams or goals. Even overthrowing the kingdom was something Janey wouldn’t have done if I hadn’t prompted her.
And the world of this ruined academy was half ruined. That’s because what I did became a snowball.
No matter how hard Janey tried to live here, in the end her identity was ruined as a refugee from the Kingdom of Halem. It was obvious that a very arduous journey was waiting for her ahead.
Leaving Janey in this world meant abandoning her without caring whether she would die or something worse than death.
No matter how much I view people in travel destinations more lightly than people in real life, the same does not apply to my woman.
‘I have to take responsibility until the end. ‘You have the ability, right?’
It’s a ruined world anyway, so I use whatever martial arts or abilities I have as much as I want. That was the reason why I showed my abilities without hesitation in front of Janey.
I gathered my thoughts and spoke to Janey, who was waiting for my answer.
“This is not a special ability. I am… ”
And my explanation that followed was similar to what I told Maria.
I have a supernatural power that allows me to enter the work of art. Putting things in and taking things out is not another special ability, but a function of the super power called inventory, and the soldiers who surrounded and protected us at the camp were not actually people but androids. And this world is also a travel destination based on a work in reality.
After hearing the general situation, Janey looked a little dazed as she tried to process in her head the secrets of the world she had suddenly learned about.
“Then I… Minho, are you saying he’s a cartoon character in your reality?”
“You can see it that way.”
Janey, who had been lost in thought for a while, moved her lips heavily.
“Honestly… It’s an incredible story. It’s such a vivid reality… ”
“I fully understand.”
“But… Minho, considering the things you showed me, I can’t help but believe it. This magical car we are riding now is also proof of that.”
Janey said, slowly sweeping the car seat with her palm.
“That’s right. I have no reason to lie to Janey.”
“Really? I remember the first time you made me perform oral sex.”
“Well, that’s… ”
Janey burst into laughter at my embarrassed appearance. Although she didn’t expect her past of lying to be revealed, it seemed to have eased her nerves to some extent.
“… What happened to me in that cartoon?”
“I don’t know either.”
“What?”
Did my answer sound too irresponsible? Janey lifted her head and looked at me.
I put my hands up and spoke honestly to her.
“I don’t know. Janey, you never appeared in the original work.”
“Then… ”
“I can only guess that he probably lost his life to the rebels when the academy was attacked. It makes no sense for someone as talented as you to have never appeared in the original work.”
“… … .”
Janey became speechless, perhaps remembering the time when rebels attacked the academy in the past.
That was a memorable day for me too. It was the first time I used a blade to slit someone’s throat.
The shock wasn’t that big because I thought it was a world in a work of art, but because of the not-so-pleasant feel, I preferred fighting with special abilities and pistols for a while.
Now I’m completely used to it and it doesn’t bother me at all.
-That woman, Janey, looks quite shocked.
‘It was similar to you too?’
I made Maria, who had suddenly interrupted and said something, become quiet again.
“If it were a cartoon, there would have been a main character. Who was the main character?”
“Layton Code was the main character.”
“Okay… A man who was considered the best among agents could be considered a protagonist. Although Minho easily defeated him.”
Janey nodded. Then, he leaned back deeply into the car seat.
“So what do you plan to do now? Minho, according to you, this world is now ruined.”
“Yes.”
“Why did you come back? I could just forget about the ruined world and move on to other works.”
“Jane, you are here.”
