episode_0003

I walked out of the taxi, completely exhausted.

I felt a little better after drinking some water, and after sitting down for a while, I could see where I had to go.

“Sister. I’m sorry about earlier.”

[They say that any constellation without a name is fine.]

“No matter how out of my mind I was, I shouldn’t have done that to my sister. I’m sorry.”

[An unnamed constellation urges them to walk.]

I went to the tollgate of .

is a city of living tree people, and unlike other cities, it is divided into classes.

However, this class is not simply divided, but is divided by the level of enlightenment that a person has gained while living. Among these, the Malkuth layer has the lowest entry restriction level, so the most people enter.

‘This is paradise on earth.’

When my older sister was human, she went to a level called Geburah.

Contrary to the saying that it was a paradise on earth, it was a battlefield.

All day long, there were scenes of people fighting to the death and brutally tearing apart the corpses of the dead.

Only my older sister knew the exact reason, but she said that this situation was because the Clifford, a rule that existed on each floor, was violated.

My older sister suddenly received a request to investigate why people were breaking the Clifford, and I remember her diligently investigating and discovering the cause, but she couldn’t remember why it happened.

[A nameless constellation recalls the past.]

[Measuring level… … .]

[Enlightenment Lv. 4 / Netzach Stage]

“Yes, you can use the Netzach to Malkut floor. Which floor would you like to stay on?”

“Uh··· The best floor.”

“Yes. You can go to the 4th floor.”

“Yep.”

So I vowed to myself never to break the rules.

I took the city’s elevator and started going from the 0th floor of the Clifford to the 4th floor of the Netzach.

As I was coming up, I thought of the Clifford here, and the Clifford here was like this.

‘Just don’t indulge yourself in alcohol and sex, and don’t be homosexual. It’s that simple.’

I walked down the street normally.

As I went up to buy souvenirs, my luggage increased, but I arrived at the Netzach floor.

Ding-.

[Arrived.]

From now on, I am a resident of the paradise on earth, the Sephiroth.

I went inside with a very excited heart.

But inside, a different scenery than I had imagined was unfolding.

“Crazy. What is this.”

People having sex, and the floor between them becoming sticky.

When I thought about what on earth had happened to lead to this situation, I realized that most of them were homosexuals.

‘Ah, my eyes!’

I threw away my eyes.

For a moment, I thought about turning back, but I held back and walked towards the house that was assigned to me.

My stomach was churning.

[The constellations that govern the Netzach layer welcome you, the new resident.]

[Sponsor the Holy Relic, ‘Sephirot Affiliation Anklet’.]

Anklet belonging to Sephiroth.

To put it simply, it is an identification card.

The good thing about having this is that you can enjoy everything in Sephiroth freely and infinitely.

I was free to eat, sleep, and work however I wanted.

Of course, with so much freedom, there were some things that weren’t free, but that didn’t matter.

There would be no problem if you just followed the rules of the Netzach layer and the rules of the Sephiroth.

[An unnamed constellation says his face is too red.]

[An unnamed constellation tells you to go home quickly and rest.]

“Okay, I’ll go in.”

I entered the house full of expectations.

My house is a detached house that is a little spacious for living alone. It has two bathrooms and a king-size bed. It is a nice house with a living room, kitchen, and hobby room.

But before I could look back on them all, I went straight to bed.

“Euaaa …

[An unnamed constellation tells you to rest quickly.]

“Ah, I see······.”

At my sister’s urging, I covered myself with the blanket and went to sleep.

And so the night passed.

*

[Rules of Sephiroth]

First, my freedom is important. But that doesn’t mean I should suppress the freedom of others. Because just as my freedom is important, so is the freedom of others.

Second, become a subject who acts, feels, and lives for yourself. Only then can you exist in the Sephiroth, otherwise you cannot exist.

Third, we are all equal, so love everyone. Otherwise, we will live in discrimination and be hated by everyone.

“Eww······ My legs hurt a little bit, maybe because I walked too much yesterday.”

[An unnamed constellation says it lacks exercise.]

[An unnamed constellation suggests that since it’s 6 o’clock, why don’t we just eat breakfast and go for a walk?]

“I want to eat breakfast, but I don’t want to go out and run.”

[An unnamed constellation speaks as a request to the rear constellation.]

“Oh, why! I don’t want to go out!!”

But even so, my sister’s answer was firm.

[An unnamed constellation asks for a favor as an older sister.]

“Really, are you going to do that?”

[An unnamed constellation asks for your protection.]

[An unnamed constellation says this is a request from an old friend.]

[A nameless constellationㅡ.]

“Ah, I got it! Just eat and go out! Just go out!!”

[One unnamed constellation is satisfied.]

I walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator.

There wasn’t anything in the fridge that looked particularly appetizing, and when I opened the tray, there were bags of ramen of various types.

When I opened the refrigerator again, there was new kimchi.

‘I think I finally understand why this place is called paradise.’

After pouring water into the pot, I turned on the induction stove and heated the water.

I put the ramen noodles in boiling water, added the soup, and then cracked two eggs into it.

Finally, I closed the lid.

‘It’s been 4 minutes.’

I put on kitchen gloves, lifted the handle, and placed it on the ramen plate on the table.

When I opened the lid, steam was rising.

Looking at the condition of the ramen, it seemed well cooked.

I opened the plastic bottle containing kimchi and started eating the ramen with the kimchi.

For reference, this was my morning.

[An unnamed constellation now tells them to go out and run.]

“But, Sister. Do I really have to run? I don’t think I have to run.”

[A nameless constellation pinches your belly.]

[A nameless constellation berates the incarnation for its laziness.]

“Sister! How about playing games at home instead? If you go outside, you’ll just see crazy people messing around.”

[An unnamed constellation says that won’t do.]

“Right? Then let’s play a game.”

[Sponsor the item, ‘Inpimyeon-gu’.]

The cotton ball fell from above and went into the ramen.

When I took it out and examined it, it was a human face with an old man’s face.

After roughly washing it in water and drying it on the veranda, I started talking to my older sister.

“Sister. Why did you give me this?”

[An unnamed constellation says the goblin mask is too conspicuous.]

[It is said that it is used by an unnamed constellation when disguising itself.]

[A nameless constellation cries out to protect the incarnation’s chastity.]

“Uh. So you’re saying I should cover my face with this and then run?”

[Answer: An unnamed constellation is correct.]

“But then wouldn’t it be harder because you’d be out of breath and sweaty?”

[An unnamed constellation says to write later.]

[An unnamed constellation urges you to run.]

“Ha, I understand. I can’t help it since you told me to keep running.”

[An unnamed constellation praises the incarnation’s attitude.]

“Don’t look at me now, I’m going to wash up. Okay?”

[A nameless constellation covers its eyes.]

I went into the bathroom, washed up, came out, dried my hair, and started picking out clothes to wear.

There were several sets of clothes in my closet at home, and among them I was wearing a blue top and black shorts.

I dried my hair, packed my bags, and went out.

The hot sun began to burn my skin.

“Wow, the sun is so hot?”

[An unnamed constellation tells you to take at least one black umbrella from home.]

“Okay.”

I walked down the street using a black umbrella I brought from home as a parasol.

During the day, unlike at night, there are no people who look particularly strange.

Of course, there were no people, but compared to other cities, there was something else that was strange.

‘The shepherds over there are sharing the fruit with each other… Is it tasty?’

There were things that humans could not understand, such as trees intertwining their roots with each other or photosynthesizing by spreading their roots on the street.

‘But fortunately, unlike other cities, there are no cases of people getting stabbed or robbed on the street.’

After running around the city, I returned home.

There was cold water prepared in the house, and I took a sip of it.

“Wow~! This is it. I’ll drink cold water for this taste.”

[An unnamed constellation says that drinking too much cold water is bad for your health.]

[An unnamed constellation suggests health.]

“No, sis. I even ran early in the morning, and now you want me to go to the gym?”

[Sponsor the item, ‘Chicken Breast’.]

[An unnamed constellation says, “If you don’t like gym, eat this.”]

“It’s not anything else, it’s just chicken breast, so I’ll eat it for now.”

[An unnamed constellation caresses the Avatar.]

After finishing the chicken breast, I rested well at home until dinnertime.

And he invited Grigori to his home.

I drank some caffeinated beverages until she came, played some games for the first time in a while, and played for about 5 hours.

Someone knocked on our door.

He opened the door to his house and welcomed Grigori.

“Welcome. This is my house······ Who are you?”

[An unnamed constellation stands guard.]

When he opened the door, what appeared was not Grigori, but a girl wearing clothes that were a size larger than him.

The girl ignored me, came into the house, and lay down on my bed to sleep.

Suddenly, I came to the house and saw the girl sleeping, and a question arose.

‘What is this?’

Grigori came to our house about three minutes later.

“Hey Enoch! Nice to meet you. Is your sister here with you?”

[An unnamed constellation nods.]

“Yeah. I have it.”

“Really? But why did you leave the door open? What if a thief breaks in?”

“It’s okay. Even if someone steals, there are more things that aren’t mine.”

“Okay, let’s skip that. What are you looking at now?”

“Come here and look.”

Grigori has blond hair and copper skin.

She was our sister’s only friend and a broker and trader who ran a huge black market.

He was a little shorter than my older sister, but much taller than me.

Then she saw a girl who was about twice as small as her, approached her, and started poking her cheeks and playing around with her.

“Hey, hey. What kind of creature is this? A fairy?”

“Is she a fairy? She’s just like a child.”

“Oh my, where did your parents go? You’re left alone.”

“Well, it’s a common thing. Parents abandoning their children. Of course, I didn’t know it would go this far.”

Grigori stared blankly at the girl and then opened his mouth.

“Shall I look for it?”

“You’re looking for it?”

“Yeah. But I’m good at finding people.”

“Well, I’ll find it for you, it doesn’t matter.”

“Okay. Well, let’s meet up later. For now, let’s hug Nok. Come here. I’ll hug you.”

“Okay.”

[A nameless constellation growls at his friend.]

“Huh? Why are you stopping?”

“Now that I think about it, what would Lisa do if I hugged her first?”

“I got kicked in the ass.”

“Melt. Please.”

“Okay. I’ll go.”

Hug.

It was a soft and warm hug.

[A nameless constellation is furious, asking what is going on!]

[Sponsor the item, ‘Iron Baseball Bat’.]

[An unnamed constellation tells you to hit him in the head!]

A baseball bat fell in front of me, but I couldn’t pick it up.

It was just a hug, why are you overreacting so much? But that hug was a lot longer than I thought.

“Andori.”

“Huh?”

“I’m out of breath.”

“Oh right. I forgot.”

Andriy stepped back.

Then he stepped on a baseball bat and fell over.

Bang!

“Ayaayaya… No, don’t doubt your friend!”

Grigori, who had fallen, got up, pressing the space between his lower back and pelvis as if his hip bone was in pain.

I stared blankly at Grigori.

“Andori.”

“Anyway, you always… Huh? Why are you calling me?”

“Now that we’ve finished moving in, let’s go back.”

“… … Didn’t you call me to stay overnight?”

“… … Huh?”

“No, it takes 5 hours to get there and back, so you invited me just to see your face?”

“Uh······ Then that won’t work?”

“Oh my… I’m melting. That’s rude. Who goes to a housewarming party only to see the landlord’s face? First, let’s fill our bellies. I’m hungry.”

“Okay.”

“Is Noki making this dish?”

“Oh… Is that so? Then, why don’t we just eat ramen or something?”

He took out a bag of ramen from the table.

I opened the ramen package again and looked in the refrigerator.

There was pork, kimchi, and other miscellaneous items in the refrigerator.

There were things like sesame oil and red pepper powder on the table.

When I looked back, there were onions, green onions, and oyster mushrooms behind me.

I don’t know when it happened, but since Grigori didn’t say anything, I didn’t think much of it.

But what can you make with this?

[An unnamed constellation asks if he would like to make kimchi stew.]

“Kimchi stew? You don’t know how to cook it?”

[An unnamed constellation tells you to do only what it says.]

“Okay. Okay. Then, what should I do first?”

[An unnamed constellation takes out a pot and tells them to pour sesame oil into it.]

I started making kimchi stew as my sister said.

I poured in a can of sesame oil, put in the kimchi whole, and then cut up the pork for the soup.

I stir-fried them, added water little by little, made a soup-like consistency, then closed the lid and boiled it.

Add chopped onions and green onions to the kimchi stew that has been stewed for a long time.

Add a pinch of red pepper powder, and finally add the ramen noodles and ramen soup and boil.

I placed the kimchi stew, which was neatly placed in a pot, on the table.

“Wow, it’s all done. Is this a work of art?”

“Enoch.”

“Huh?”

“There are too many sheep.”

“Because you’re eating it.”

“You’re telling me to eat all of this?”

“Yeah.”

“······I’ll cook next time.”

“Why?”

“It’s better than Lisa, but… Don’t just go in. You’re helping by staying still.”

[An unnamed constellation takes issue with your words.]

I put a spoonful of kimchi stew on the plate and shared it with Grigori.

‘It tastes good, but I failed to control the amount.’

I somehow managed to eat cleanly and put the dishes and cooking utensils on the sink.

“I’ll wash downstairs, so Grigori, you wash upstairs.”

“Okay. Okay. ”

Grigory stretching and climbing upwards.

I went into the bathroom connected to the bedroom and washed up.

After I finished washing up, I didn’t feel like getting dressed, so I just put on a white robe and lay down on one side of the bed.

In the center, a girl was sleeping without a care in the world.

I also closed my eyes because I was tired, maybe because it had been a long time since I played a game.

“Good night, sister.”

[An unnamed constellation answers.]

We lay in bed and slept.

A long time passed like that.

*

Swish.

[An unnamed constellation wakes up with an ominous feeling.]

[A nameless constellation shouts to its volcano to rise!]

“Umm······ Sister. It’s still dawn······.”

[An unnamed constellation says to come to your senses.]

“Huh?”

I was sleeping soundly when I came to my senses and saw that the tree trunks were slowly squeezing my body.

The pressure wasn’t that bad, but maybe because I just woke up, I didn’t have much strength.

“Sister. What is this?”

[An unnamed constellation questions the girl’s existence.]

[An unnamed constellation becomes aware of the presence of the woodmen.]

[A nameless constellation shouts, “Get out of there quickly!”]

He must have known I was awake because he tightened his belt around me faster than before.

Moreover, the posture was tied strangely and it was embarrassing.

[Sponsor the item, ‘Herbicide for Wood People’.]

He caught the weed killer falling from the sky, pulled out the pin, and threw it.

The tree trunk that was choking me seemed to sense the presence of the herbicide and tried to avoid it by jumping, but part of the trunk was stuck on me, so I couldn’t do anything.

pop!!!

The weed killer exploded, spraying green liquid.

The tree trunk that was hit by the liquid slowly shrank and moved towards its own body.

The main body was stuck to my leg.

I grabbed the body attached to my leg, the girl I had been sleeping with just a moment ago, and dragged her along.

Bam.

“Ouch!”

Grigori came in after the girl’s screams.

“What’s going on.!!”

“You came at a good time.”

I picked the girl up again and threw her at Grigori.

The girl trembled with her wounded body.

Grigori asked me while holding the girl in his arms.

“What’s going on?”

I just gave a brief explanation of what had happened.
