my house.

my room.

My father’s room, where I have lived since the time I lived alone with him.

And the two people lying there.

“…”

Quietly..

“…”

Quietly..

“You’re not sleeping, right?”

“..How did you know?”

“The person I was sleeping with kept touching me persistently.”

“..Good morning.”

“Yes. To wish you a good morning, could you please untie the rope tied to my feet?”

“I think it will be difficult.”

“Okay, then how do I go to the bathroom?”

“Shall I listen to you?”

“I have to crawl.”

How could a grown man, with all his limbs intact, be stopped by a woman to go to the bathroom?

I absolutely could not bear that shame.

“Now. When everything is finished, should I move you to a room?”

“…It’s good weather for jumping today.”

And now that I’ve experienced it, it seems like it’s a shame that I can endure if I try to endure it.

I went into the bathroom, closed the door, and whispered quietly in a voice that Suyeon couldn’t hear.

“Chivalrous Lee Soo-ah.”

But… the miracle I wanted didn’t happen.

‘I said I couldn’t use magic, but I didn’t say I couldn’t use skills.’

This was already my 7th time denying reality.

“…”

Should I at least send a text message to the guild leader asking him to come rescue me?

‘No… Sooyeon, who sent it for no reason and turned back time, will take my cell phone away…’

Or rather, I wondered if it was true that the guild leader could save me in the first place.

“Whoo..”

“Why don’t you give up?”

“..Yeah, I just gave up cleanly.”

“Good job, oppa.”

“…When is Seolhee coming?”

“I heard you’ll be a little late because you have to bring Su-ah with you when you come?”

“Did Sua agree to me being here?”

“Hyerin said she agreed, but I’m not sure about Sua.”

“..The guild leader agreed?”

“When I told you that I would act in your place, you said yes without even thinking about it?”

“Yeonwoo..?”

“He’s dead.”

“…”

“Don’t worry, no matter what you do, you can’t get out of here.”

“Why are you saying such scary things!”

.

They say humans are animals of adaptation, and Su-yeon has given up on getting out of here and is just adapting to the normal life she feels for the first time in a long time and living well. Soo-yeon releases the rope that is tied to her hands.

“…What happens if I untie the rope with this and go out?”

“It doesn’t matter because you won’t be able to solve it anyway.”

“..I see.”

In the first place, the rope that tied the legs at an appropriate strength was also unusual.

Why is golden light leaking out of an ordinary rope?

Isn’t there a saying that if you can’t avoid it, enjoy it?

In the end, I gave up on even the one remaining hope and decided to just enjoy my life in confinement.

.

“So, if I tell you what you said, whenever I was home all day, I made you sit on my lap and watched TV every day?”

“Yes.”

“Aren’t you shamelessly lying because you know I won’t be able to retrieve my memories now?”

“Is it true?”

“You made me sit on his lap but didn’t do that again?”

“I didn’t do it because we were family.”

“In the first place, we are family, so is it normal for people to sit on your lap?”

“Your brother wasn’t normal, and he cheated on me, not me?”

Well, it was worth it.

How much of a siscon he would have sacrificed for her.

“..I guess I really liked you.”

“That’s right.”

It’s still like that now, she’s sitting on the sofa watching the TV playing blankly and she’s lying with her head on her lap.

I was stroking her head little by little and watching the news with the thought that something would work out in the end.

No matter which TV program you watch now, all you see is stories about the 6th, 7th, and 8th floors being conquered simultaneously in one day.

“Is it really difficult to clear 3 floors in one day?”

“It’s very difficult. At first, I was only trying to clear the 9th floor within a month after receiving the 0 floor reward, but I couldn’t even imagine 3 floors in one day.”

“…Is that possible within a month?”

“Enough.”

“…It’s scary.”

“Is that so?”

“Have you ever tried it?”

“Twice.”

“Oh…”

“I did it in worse conditions than this, so why not?”

“Can you clear the 10th floor by yourself?”

“Yes. All you have to do is get the reward and just take it. Nothing special there either.”

oh my god.

“..Regressor is the best.”

“Oh, that’s right!”

She lifted her head from her lap as if she suddenly remembered what I said.

“Hmm?”

“Before Seolhee unnie comes, let’s get our mouths together first.”

“? I understand.”

side.

“Uh… I explained it wrong, but this is still good.”

She asked me to kiss her, so I kissed her, but it turned out that when she asked me to kiss her, she meant to kiss me.

“Which one?”

“I don’t want a big problem if my sister finds out that I’m a regressor.”

“That’s right.”

It has now been about 24 hours since I was locked up in this house with Soo-yeon, speaking and kissing each other like that.

Seolhee, Nyamu, Sua, and even the guild leader gathered here.

“…”

“Aye!”

“Yes.. Nyamuya, yes, it’s dad.”

” Couple boop.”

And naturally, the three women sitting together began to open their own negotiation table, excluding me.

As I had no choice but to overhear their conversation and hold Nyamu, the guild leader, who was not involved in their conversation, approached me.

“Boo boop?”

“I heard the news.”

“Yes?”

“You won’t be able to come out of here from now on.”

The guild leader is looking at the three women who are drinking coffee with calm expressions and discussing intently among themselves.

“That’s it.”

“I hope you cheer up.”

“Aren’t you going to save me?”

“Unofficially, Sooyeon decided to join our team instead of Cheonhwi.”

“…”

“We were already running out of electricity when Yeonwoo disappeared, so I thought it was a good alternative.”

“Guild leader..?”

“Thank you for your hard work. However, I heard that he will return after clearing the 10th floor.”

“Wait a minute?”

“From now on, I plan to work as a group of three, me, Sua, and Suyeon.”

“…I will be holding Seolhee’s hand tightly when I enter the 9th floor. So, is it not possible to enter?”

“Hmm… Well, it would be such a shame to miss out on the full reward. I will ask Suyeon about that.”

“Oh..Thank you.”

“But it will probably take at least 4 months to conquer the 9th floor.”

“…Yes?”

“This decision was made after fighting against the army on the 8th floor. We came to this conclusion because we believed that we would be able to clear the 9th floor only if we received the entire 8th floor reward.”

“…What does that mean..?”

“I will miss you for 4 months, Cheonhwi.”

“Guild leader..? Guild leader…?!”

“Boo boo boop!”

“Nyamu must be jealous, since her father decided not to go anywhere for 4 months and just stay with her.”

“Pyeong!”

“You cowardly take a child hostage…”

“..If you say things like that while stroking them, there is no persuasive effect.”

“But what do you do with something cute?”

“…I admit it.”

“Kkeppa!”

In the end, the conversation with the guild leader concluded with Nyamu’s duo storm stroking.

“Then, starting tomorrow, I will go back first.”

“You must keep your promise, no more than 3 times a day.”

“That’s right, you have to think about the person you’ll be doing the next day.”

“Wait a minute, why isn’t everyone thinking about me?”

Three people look back at me for a moment in response to my question.

Sister Seolhee, Sua, and Suyeon.

“…”

“…”

“…”

“Pyeongup?”

“Not while you’re up there.”

“I understand.”

“Yes!”

“…”

3 times a day.

If you count a month as 30 days.

90 times a month, 360 times in 4 months.

“…Wow..”

Hey, can you really do this every day?

“…”

At this time, I made up my mind.

The moment my magic returned, I decided to try to escape at all costs.

‘Let’s wait for a week, Cheonhwi.’

.

that evening

Five people gathered at Suyeon’s house.

“The story of the spirit world is here.”

“Then what floor is this about?”

“It’s the 7th floor.”

“Yes? So you cleared this by yourself?”

“The horse is Leviathan, and it was very easy as you only had to kill one of them.”

“…Sister, the size of Leviathan here is 80m?”

“If he gets his head cut off, he dies the same way.”

“..The shell is very hard..”

The material we are currently looking for was a document related to the 9th floor.

In a situation where most of the data has already been translated, we check the organized documents through a mobile program.

“Which one is the 9th floor…”

Seolhee, Sua, and the guild leader are diligently looking for documents related to the 9th floor.

In the same case as me and Sooyeon, we were reading the document intently.

Even if Suyeon was a regressor, I didn’t want that fact to be discovered, so I pretended not to know and was reading interesting documents written here and there.

Among them.

“Wow… Look, hey, there’s a document related to the World Tree here?”

“Ppaengboop?”

Even in a situation where the adults were all just looking at their phones and could be quite bored, I started reading a story related to the World Tree as if I were reading a storybook to Nyamu, who clung to me in my arms and waited patiently without whining…

“World Tree. Age is unknown. As a huge tree that governs the vitality of several dimensions where nature exists…”

“Hmm? Don’t you read it later?”

“Are you listening?”

“It’s something related to our daughter, but as a mother, I can’t not listen to it.”

“That’s right.”

“Please take a break and read a little bit, wow.. It’s been a while since I read this much.”

“Yes, they adjust the natural environment of the area or create forests to hide spirits in danger.”

“You can create a forest as you like..”

“Bbabbub!”

As Nyamu waved his hands for a while, grass began to grow on the floor.

“Our friend is also amazing.”

“Boo boo boop!”

“I’m still young so I guess the forest is too much for me. Still, flowers are blooming… This is my first time seeing something like this.”

“In human form, she was a very beautiful woman, and was called the mother of all people, and with these various abilities, she protected the spirit world for thousands of years.”

“I think I know why the spirits there hold up the World Tree like a god.”

“That’s right.. they have protected the spirit world for thousands of years.”

“Now that I think about it, the World Tree is currently acting as the gatekeeper of heaven.”

“It was something interesting, like a novel. OMG! Should I look for the 9th floor document again?”

“Yes!”

Su-ah and Seol-hee begin to look through the contents again to find the 9th floor document.

Now, as I received a signal from Soo-yeon, who gave me a glance and hinted at page 278 with her finger, I began to think alone in my mind.

‘…I can go out.’

In fact, there was a section in the middle that was not read out loud on purpose.

‘He showed great strategies to prevent the destruction of many worlds by sending the spirits under his command to dimensions that needed support, and sometimes he himself appeared in those dimensions to restore the collapsed ecosystem.’

What this means is.

The story was that if I could persuade Nyamu well, I could get out of here.

“Damn it!”

“Okay, okay, just take a moment to find this, and then Dad will play with you all night long.”

“Ahhhh!”

Second day of confinement.

It wasn’t over until it was over.
