Elsia grabbed Hyeji’s hand and made a surprised expression.

That was for a while.

He began to look at Hyeji with cold eyes, holding her hand that was starting to turn red.

“…You definitely are.”

“You little bastards live in a doghouse, not a forest!! Every bastard I see passively yells at me!!”

Hyeji screamed loudly with bloodshot eyes.

In contrast, Elsia is quite relaxed.

“Do you have any kind of deep relationship with our husband right now?”

“You crazy bitch!!!! I just met you today!!!!!!”

“Oh my~. There is such a thing as love at first sight.”

Looking behind Elsia, I saw the escort elf laughing heartily.

Judging from the fact that the number above Elsia’s head rose after it did, she must have seen this scene in the future before regression.

But it seemed like he had no intention of stopping it.

Rather, it was an expression of watching as if it was fun.

“As a man, aren’t you embarrassed to wear a skirt?”

” I am a woman !!!!

“Really? There was really nothing there, so I thought you were a cross-dressing man.”

At the same time, Elsia crossed her arms.

As if showing off his huge chest.

Hyeji was shocked by the overwhelming movement and clenched her teeth.

“Don’t you think it’s ugly to be acting like that at your age?”

“……I’m only 89 years old~. That’s very young for an elf.”

“I realize there are a lot of them~.”

Elsia paused for a moment as if she had been hit on the nail on the head.

But she shows a relaxed smile again.

Those eyes weren’t smiling at all.

“It’s a perfect straight line. I could be sisters with the cliff friends of Korea, China, and Japan.”

“You are very old. What should I call you to show respect for your elders? Grandma?”

“……Call me sister. ”

The atmosphere was unusual.

The fighting is not decreasing, but rather escalating.

I tried to mediate by forcing myself to hold on to my body that was about to fall.

To be honest, I couldn’t hear their conversation very well because my body was completely ruined.

When I saw the fight escalating, I thought I should stop it.

but.

“That….Hyeji and Elsia? It seems like it’s getting too intense. How about stopping for now?”

“Shut up! You little brat who likes this kind of grandma!”

“The West is out. Surely you aren’t going to be horny for this brat again?”

“Yep…..”

It didn’t even work.

It was quickly crushed for fear of further sparks flying.

Then Hyeji and Elsia started fighting without paying any attention to me anymore.

Sunton was Elsia.

“My little brother is so flat that he’s perfect for leveling. You could build a building on his chest.”

“Oh my, isn’t my sister too old to be alive?”

“You’re still attractive even if you have small breasts. Don’t worry too much, pat pat. Oh, your back is here~ I was confused~.”

“……I guess I’m getting presbyopia because I’m getting older. Is that confusing too?”

Hyeji roughly pushed Elsia’s hand away.

But somehow, it was a sight that made Hyeji’s heart hurt more than Elsia’s hand.

Moreover, Elsia’s onslaught was not over.

“Oh my, when I tapped my transportation card on my little brother’s chest, it said ‘there isn’t enough chest’?”

“……”

“They say that dreams are contained in the heart, but is my brother a Santa who gives dreams to everyone?”

“Fucking shit.”

Life overflowed from Hyeji.

‘If I had teased you like that, you would have died, right?’

[You didn’t learn anything even though you got shot by a bullet last time.]

Then Hyeji calms down again and smiles sinisterly at Elsia.

This time it’s Hyeji’s turn.

“If an elf is 189 years old, that’s mysterious, but if they’re 89 years old, doesn’t that make them smell like a chicken coop?”

“……My younger brother seems to have a weak head as well as a weak chest, but then again, I’m very young for an elf.”

“Ah, since you’re an elf, it’s not a chicken coop, it’s a rotten tree? What should we do with our sister? She must be dried up and twisted without water.”

A gnashing of teeth was heard from somewhere.

The source is Elsia, smiling brightly.

Elsia barely regained her composure and spoke.

“……Elf have a unique elf scent. It doesn’t smell like wood at all.”

“Well, I guess at that age you should burn incense.”

“……”

“Our older sister is more than just a gold miss, she’s a ‘old tree miss’.”

Hyeji landed a fatal blow.

That too, quite deeply.

The two didn’t say anything.

“……”

“……”

“…Marble bitch.”

“…A bitch who smells like old trees.”

They hurled fierce attacks at each other.

Meanwhile, I was shaking my body and talking to the voice in my head.

‘It certainly feels a little strange if the elf is less than 100 years old, which is a realistic age.’

[That’s as ridiculous as a 6kg dagger. If you said it was a 200kg dagger, I’d be curious.]

‘No, a 6kg dagger makes sense.’

[What the hell are you talking about!!!!!]

The voice in my head screaming at me.

But there’s nothing strange about a 6kg dagger.

‘Recon will use it.’

[Then I admit it.]

At that moment, the sharp swords that were pointed at each other simultaneously turned towards me.

“So Shinwoo! Are you going to put tofu in that old tree and beat it up?”

“Sir! Sir, you’re not a pedo, are you?”

“Wait a minute. How did the conversation go that suddenly for that word to come out.”

“Speak quickly!”

“Speak quickly!”

Luckily, before I could answer.

Professor Miran entered the classroom.

Professor Miran sensed the atmosphere and tried to run away based on her instincts.

Only, my feet were faster.

I half-begged the professor to let me continue with the class.

In the end, the fight between Hyeji and Elsia ended in incomplete combustion.

The escort elf, with a satisfied expression on her face, began to leave the classroom with Elsia.

Then, just before the escort elf left, she looked at me and smiled.

[You had a fun time.]

‘You have to pay the admission fee to see that bastard.’

***

That day, Elsia didn’t come until class was over.

It seems like he is the representative candidate for the World Tree Welcome.

If he had been elected, it would have been natural to greet people.

Fortunately or unfortunately, in Elsia’s case.

He said that he couldn’t take classes at a low tier like Jeong Ah-yeon.

More important than anything else is the tier difference.

From iron to gold.

This was because there were two grades between those classes: bronze and silver.

‘We are here to protect the evidence that we cannot turn the queue together.’

[Where is the little guy trying to rub shoulders with the little guy?]

Meanwhile, Hyeji spent the whole day like a robot without any emotions.

Leaving behind only one emotion.

fleshy.

To kill someone.

A slimy and sharp murderous intent, especially to kill the pink elf.

I was too scared to talk to her, so I just said a quick hello and ran off to the library to borrow some books.

And in the library.

“Confucius? What’s going on here?”

“I came to borrow a book.”

I met Jeong A-yeon again.

Jeong A-yeon looks quite surprised at my words.

As if I hadn’t expected it at all.

“Did Confucius have the intelligence to read books?”

“You fucking idiot.”

“So what book did you come to read?”

“Well, I’ve finished reading Dokmasae this time, so I’m going to read something else.”

“Oh! I saw that book!”

Jeong Ah-yeon, her face brightening.

Judging from the sudden rush to me, I guess he was excited because he found out that we shared the same hobby.

“Of course I saw it. It was the best work with absolutely no negative reviews.”

“I was also touched. The author suddenly wrote a story while getting inspiration from burning down an orchard himself.”

It was truly a masterpiece.

So much so that I’m glad I saw it before I died.

“I also enjoyed reading Tower of the Sun, which was published to completion around the same time as Dokmasae.”

“It seems like you see a lot of variety. Have you seen Topmae, even though it’s a different genre?”

“That really surprised me. Who knew that taking a break meant finishing it cleanly and taking a break in an instant?”

I was scared when the hiatus notice came out, but it turned out to be a lie.

I felt quite happy while reading it.

At that moment, Jeong Ah-yeon’s face suddenly began to darken.

“However, it’s such a shame that the author of Harry Potter passed away right after the series ended.”

“That’s right. These days, AI is hacking into writers’ messengers and talking nonsense, but they can’t punish them.”

“This is so disgusting! We need to get rid of things like AI punishment ban laws!”

[After the author’s death, wasn’t all of his work ruined by AI?]

‘If it weren’t for that AI bastard, it wouldn’t have been this bad.’

Since Jeong Ah-yeon and I have similar hobbies, we were able to have a good conversation.

I don’t know if it’s my sister’s influence or if I liked it from the beginning.

Anyway, it wasn’t bad.

It is said that in some worlds there are only two brother birds, which is truly a pity.

But even among the numerous completed works.

Hunter x Hunter is still in its 2019 state.

[Will this novel end sooner, or will that comic end sooner?]

‘Togashi, please, at least write something.’

So, I went to the library and borrowed a completed work that Jeong A-yeon recommended.

It was the story of a blind man named Iyer.

***

When I returned to the dorm, I read a book and thought back on what happened that day.

‘It certainly seems like Elsia was able to return from the distant future, right?’

[That’s right. I don’t know exactly, but my hair was that long.]

‘But I didn’t expect Hyeji to hit my hand.’

I close the book I was reading, take out a piece of paper and a pen, and start organizing things.

Then suddenly a thought occurred to me.

‘Come to think of it, Elsia’s regression numbers weren’t that many, were they?’

[Even considering that elves are a long-lived species, a double-digit regression is too few.]

‘On the other hand, in the case of Hyeji and the other young noblemen, it was a four-digit regression.’

One by one, black lines begin to appear on the pure white paper.

A myriad of black slashes forming letters on a piece of paper.

I extracted a few things from those letters and organized them into a hypothesis.

[Let’s meet up sometime.]

‘I wrote it myself, but I’m still ambiguous.’

Hypothesis 1) People with larger numbers above their heads can regress more often than other people, but cannot regress from the distant future.

[It’s true that when Hyeji was fighting with the kid named Ahyeon, her expression didn’t indicate that you would be following her.]

‘I was rather surprised.’

[But it seems like things that happen in the short future happen often.]

‘It’s true that both Gwijaengi and Hyeji’s numbers have gone up too often.’

Under the first hypothesis, I wrote Lucian and Hyeji’s names.

The second hypothesis follows.

Hypothesis 2) People with smaller numbers above their heads can return from the distant future, but not often.

[If this is the case, then the elf named Elsia can be explained to some extent. However.]

‘but?’

I questioned the voice in my head.

After a moment of silence, the voice in my head continued.

[Didn’t Goldsmith, who had a prosthetic arm, regress three years and regress once more at the faculty meeting?]

‘Oh, that’s right. But even if I do that, I still can’t get married.’

[Poor thing.]

Under the second hypothesis, write Elsia’s name.

Finally, the third hypothesis.

Hypothesis 3) The conditions for possible regression and reuse are different for each person.

[Didn’t Ryu Kang-hyeok, the guy who beat you up like a dog at first, say that there was a waiting time of maybe an hour?]

‘Yes, only once at a time. And only for a maximum of 30 minutes.’

If there is no lie in what Mr. Kang Hyuk said.

[Then, if we assume that Hyeji only experiences up to 3 minutes of the future and regresses, what do you think about doing it multiple times?]

‘Maybe… it’s rechargeable?’

[Are you talking about Timo R?]

A fairly intuitive word.

Of course, that was true.

‘…..You seem to know more than me now? Where is your tier?’

[Normally, I wouldn’t even be polite to Attak. Be grateful.]

‘Fuck.’

Write a letter under each of the third hypotheses.

Single shot. And rechargeable.

[So, do you think the time required for charging is longer than the maximum return time?]

‘I think so for now. Otherwise, wouldn’t the world have been fucked up already?’

[You figured it out.]

It’s a very convenient world.

But the voice in my head seemed to have a slightly different opinion.

[There is a reason for everything. A reason as to why it cannot be done.]

‘Really? Tell me later.’

I gave up because my head wouldn’t turn anymore.

Eventually, as the number of episodes increases, you will know what to expect.

maybe.
