***

Nivir did not go into great detail about the definitions of gods, planes, and mortals.

Not only is such an explanation not very helpful, but it also makes the listener think that it has nothing to do with them.

Nivir briefly told her three facts.

There are many dimensions in the world.

Kang In-ho, whom Mina cherishes, moves between dimensions every time he dies.

I don’t know which dimension I moved to.

“So what I have to do is…”

After explaining the origin of the universe, which was short but long considering what she had to do, the elegant woman asked.

The voice was calm, but I could see his body flinching at the thought that the person he thought was dead was alive.

“You have to chase him while retracing his steps. Since you can’t pinpoint your current location, you’ll have to look for traces of movement in dimensions you’ve visited in the past.”

“Then… I guess I can start from where I lived.”

“There may be a pattern that we don’t know about, so we’ll start from where he first moved.”

-match!

When Nivir clapped his hands, he made a loud noise and a gap appeared in the space.

Beyond the gap, a cityscape unfolded, not much different from where she lived.

“They say that’s where he first went through dimensions. I am sure that the first destination was set by my junior.”

“Then I’ll leave.”

“Uh, uh! wait a minute. Why are you in such a hurry! You should listen to the precautions before going.”

“…Yes, please tell me.”

When I looked at her with an expression telling me to speak quickly, Nivir sighed in bewilderment.

‘Are all mortals this fearless these days?’

The same goes for the person named Kang In-ho who raised his middle finger and swore at Lanael, and this woman… Don’t they get a little scared when they say God?

Nivir thought of himself as an old man who could not adapt to the rapidly changing world.

“The environment will be very different depending on the dimension. Fortunately, [Earth]’s template is stable and popular, so many gods have adopted it, but it also has a fantasy-like dimension like those seen in movies and comics.”

“Yes.”

“If you fall into a place like that, you will die instantly in your current state. There is no proper way to protect yourself.”

“Ah….”

As if he finally realized it, he opened his mouth slightly and nodded.

Nivir felt upset.

“Unlike Kang In-ho, you cannot be resurrected when you die… Oh, the reason why it is impossible is because when a person with no other record of entry is resurrected, the gods of that dimension will know right away.”

“Then wouldn’t Inho get caught too?”

“Hmm… Kang In-ho is a bit unique. It takes the form of overwriting the object in the moved dimension. Some kind of swap?”

“Change….”

“I also didn’t notice that he entered the car without permission. I only realized this after the causality was disrupted by what you did.”

How surprised were you when you found out that the causality was out of sync?

Fortunately, I was able to coordinate it before it got any further out of sync, so it would have been a disaster if I had left it any further.

“Anyway, there is no risk of resurrection, so it will give you the ability to move between dimensions and bring out the power to protect yourself.”

“Leading it?”

“Yes. your presence. It embodies the ‘concept’ hidden within it.”

“Is that possible?”

“…I am a god even when I look like this.”

Nivir lowered his shoulders and said, having heard the most absurd question he had heard in hundreds of years.

What does this woman think of me?

“Close your eyes for a moment.”

The woman closed her eyes at Nivir’s words.

Nivir walked up to her and placed his fingertips on her solar plexus.

The hand that touched the solar plexus continued to go in, and Nivir continued to recite something like a spell.

Soon, something like thick black paint began to flow down the woman’s body, and Nivir withdrew his hand and said,

“Depression, helplessness, and regret… It’s a bit sad considering the concepts that define you.”

“You are truly right. It fits perfectly.”

A woman with an invisible smile. That smile looked sad.

“The ability was created based on your concept. Now, would you like to stretch out your hand and think it will bring out your strength?”

“Like this… huh?”

As Nivir followed her words and held out her hand, black paint began to spread out from her feet and spread throughout the space.

“In the distant past, this concept was called ‘ancient shadow’. This, your alter ego, has the ability to consume incapacitated targets and use its abilities for a limited time.”

“They also say that you can make things like objects by materializing shadows, so I think it is a good ability to apply.”

“I think it will take some time to get used to it.”

The woman spoke as she wrung her hands and adjusted the size of the shadow.

“Yes. Try to get used to the abilities by traveling through the dimensions ahead.”

“I understand. So is it over now?”

“There is one more thing. When you enter a dimension, it will tell you what level of god that dimension is managed by. There is nothing to be too careful about at levels 3 and 4. If you visit a level 1 or 2 level, try not to do anything that stands out.”

“Yes. Are there any dimensions higher than level 1?”

“There is a place called unique dimension. You don’t have to know there. Because it is a well-protected place, it is impossible to access using regular techniques.”

“I understand. Then let’s go now.”

The woman nodded and walked towards the gap in space without hesitation.

Nivir saw her off, wishing her well in her duties.

In front of the gap, the woman looked back at Nivir and asked.

“But… Inho earlier said it was a change.”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Then the Inho I knew is not the Inho?”

“…Yes. Because existence has been overwritten. Do you… do you resent him?”

She remained silent as Nivir spoke.

After a long discussion, she, Lee Mi-na, said with a faint smile.

“No, Inho is Inho. I don’t care. Before and after the change, Mr. Inho was like a resting place for me.”

– Actually, I don’t even know when it changed.

she muttered.

– Jeopuk Jeopuk

“I have to meet Mr. Inho. I have to meet him and tell him I was wrong.”

“and.”

“I really want to tell you that I still love you.”

She spoke clearly as she walked into the world visible beyond the gap.

“I hope it goes well. Ms. Lee Mi-na.”

Nivir was depressed as he was leaving Imina.
