Pow!

Daju swings a hammer to clear a path.

A one-take battle scene that can only be seen in movies.

The monks, with their heads split open, fell helplessly to their seats.

“Follow me quickly!”

” Wow, Daju noona is crazy… … .”

Jeong Hae-won mutters as if he was greatly impressed.

I couldn’t help but be surprised too.

I think I now understand why Daju was able to survive without dying even though he went around so thoughtlessly.

In an apartment, you have to do this to survive.

After a while.

Where Yoon Da-ju passed, a road to get out of the city was opened.

[For those without permission… … Please leave here.]

Whick!

I swung my bata at the monk rushing towards me.

Suddenly-

With the sound of something breaking, the cervical spine falls and rolls on the floor.

The monsters, probably because they were already dead, didn’t care at all and were approaching, dragging traces of blood behind them.

Daju sighs and exhales.

“It’s not some kind of zombie, it’s really… … .”

Sigh!

Another guy fell to the floor and lost all movement.

Choi Se-rim and Jeong Hae-won are also fighting in their respective roles.

Phew!

The hammer split the air, and sticky blood splattered.

Daju Yoon scolded as she wiped the blood from her face.

“Come on, you fucking bastards!!!”

“Yoon Da-ju is doing well!”

I encouraged Daju and continued to look at the road.

I saw the falling bookshelves around, but the number of monks is endless.

You need to find a place to hide quickly before you get tired.

However, the surrounding area is flat enough for a city to be built. It’s all just flat land.

… … Where should I go?

“Dabin.”

A cold hand touched my arm.

Choi Se-rim broke into a cold sweat and pointed to a certain spot with her finger.

“There’s a cave over there. You can just go there.”

Unlike Yoon Da-ju, who is running around wildly, Choi Se-rim looks like she is in bad shape.

To the point where I have to give directions for them.

“Daju! Let’s avoid over there!”

“Yes, brother!”

Daju turns right away and clears the way.

I grabbed Choi Se-rim’s arm and started running.

“Sister. Stop using your abilities, now.”

“… … .”

“Sister?”

Choi Se-rim mutters something with her eyes tightly closed.

” Focusing, I felt Se-rim’s hand gently touching my head with a smile, and I pointed the tip of the arrow of doubt at the professor. A member of the foundation’s council. Robin sat at the office desk. Sit”

“Sister!!!”

Unknown information was flowing back.

Choi Se-rim, who barely came to her senses, coughed once and vomited blood.

“I’m fine, over there… … .”

Breathing heavily, Serim Choi pointed to the front of the line.

Daju, who was fighting hard, was struggling with both arms being held by two monks.

[You must not be here.]

The monks pull their arms in opposite directions, as if they are planning to tear Daju’s body apart.

Tdduk-duk-

I hear the sound of joints falling apart and bones breaking.

But Daju’s expression was frighteningly calm.

“Oppa. I think I need help here quickly.”

Da-ju calmly reports the situation without a single cry, still holding the weapon tightly in his hand.

“Yaaat-!!!”

Jeong Hae-won hit them with all his might, but it was no use.

Pakak-

Rather, the wooden pata broke and fell on the floor.

“Get out of the way!”

I pushed Jeong Hae-won away and ran towards Da-ju.

I swung the bata with all my might, but the result was the same.

The monk simply held the end of the bat with one hand.

Kwaduk-

With just the strength of his grip, the bat turned into powder and scattered on the floor.

“Why did you suddenly become stronger?”

Jeong Hae-won looked at the worsening situation in bewilderment.

The weapon falls to the ground, and more and more monks flock around.

It is difficult to come to your senses due to the overwhelming stench and bloody smell.

[We aim to compile all knowledge.]

[At the end of never-ending learning… … .]

The prayers the monks recited were united as one and sounded like a huge beating sound.

yes-

yes-

Darkness spreads.

Each person was holding a flashlight, but the darkness was insufficient to illuminate the library.

And no one was clear about what happened when surrounded by darkness.

[You must not remain in the dark for too long.]

It just says to avoid it as much as possible.

Even as despair increasingly surfaced, Daju clenched her teeth and held on.

Even if I screamed right away, the pain wouldn’t be surprising.

“Ugh.”

All Daju lets out is a very small moan.

Did you think that if you made a loud noise, attention would be drawn this way?

In a situation where we are already surrounded, it won’t have much of an effect.

The situation was not good enough to even rely on something like this.

And, the moment when I was about to rush in to save Daju again.

The prayer stopped.

A few seconds. It may have lasted less than a second, but complete silence filled the library.

Infinite library librarian’s authority.

The only symbol of the Wanderer’s Library and the key that controls access to all information.

A brilliantly shining key appeared.

Some monks showed respect by tearing off their own heads and throwing them on the floor.

The dark red blood that poured out quickly boiled and disappeared into thin air, and the headless body turned into gray powder and scattered.

The rest were frozen in place and unable to move.

Just seeing the key’s true form for a moment caused the monks to become seriously weakened.

dump.

Daju broke free and fell to the floor.

“Sister!”

Jeong Hae-won rushed over and helped Da-ju Yoon up.

Although I was worried about Daju, there was something more urgent.

“Ha. ha… … .”

Choi Se-rim was lying face down on the floor, breathing heavily.

As if I was going to die at any moment.

I clenched my teeth and checked Choi Se-rim’s condition.

“I told you not to use that.”

“I couldn’t help it *cough!* I couldn’t help it… … .”

“Is it important to make excuses now?”

The key is not visible.

But just for a little while. Just by taking it out and showing it, Choi Se-rim’s body began to collapse.

“It’s still okay. I can walk.”

Trying to pretend that she was okay, Choi Se-rim stood up on her own.

Blood leaked from between her lips as she smiled weakly.

“Let’s go, Dabin.”

Crack.

Crack.

A fire burns fiercely inside the cave.

I threw useless books into the fire.

“But there are monks. Was it that weak?”

Daju asks me while looking at the fire.

“Huh?”

“They are the ones who stopped the huge bookshelf from turning over purely by force. When you fought us, you were defeated strangely easily. Of course, I almost lost it for a moment… … . It makes no sense that we moved forward by unilaterally sweeping things away like this.”

Daju made an unusually sharp point.

“Also, it bothers me that Choi Se-rim was in bad condition at the same time. I think he probably did something. I didn’t see it clearly, but it’s definitely true.”

It’s not something out of the ordinary.

The voice, the facial expressions, too. The atmosphere is completely different.

“Daju Yoon?”

When I call his name, Daju tilts his head.

There is no response to calls to him. Instead, the indifferent voice returned.

“Da-ju Yoon.”

Daju repeats the name as if it has nothing to do with him.

Daju Yoon looks at me blankly and mutters.

“That’s right. That’s right.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes. I guess I went crazy for a moment.”

Daju smiles mischievously again like usual.

It felt uncomfortable somewhere, but I didn’t ask any more questions.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Yes. You did most of the fighting in the first place.”

“Hihi.”

Daju Yoon straightens her shoulders and smiles.

Jeong Hae-won also helped.

“I thought my sister was crazy. It almost felt like I was watching a berserker… … .”

Jeong Hae-won fell to the floor.

Daju Yoon was pressing the back of the guy’s head.

“What? huh? What?”

“Ugh!”

After leaving the two to play around, I leaned towards Choi Se-rim.

Choi Se-rim is looking out of the cave in silence.

“Sister. Are you okay now?”

“Yes. Dabin. I’m fine.”

“If you leave here, I really won’t forgive you.”

I crossed my arms and made a threat.

Then Choi Se-rim smiles cutely.

“Forgive me. Huh?”

“No.”

“Oh please~”

Serim Choi lightly places her hand on my shoulder and shakes it with her weight.

“Huh?”

Shaking.

His pure and charming eyes pierce my cheek.

I turned my gaze back inside the cave.

“… … Only if you return unharmed will I forgive you or not.”

I was even more worried.

Last night, Choi Se-rim, who told everything, seemed much more comfortable than before.

***

The Wanderer’s Library.

It is a space in the shape of a library and is the name of an infinite library that stores all the information around it.

At the same time, it is also a small universe.

The library, which was usually isolated and wandering between the multiverse, became tied to the real world due to the activities of a certain group.

Their activities went down in history under the name [Librarians of the Wandering Library].

There were no problems up to that point.

An organization with religious beliefs understood some of the characteristics of libraries and built a system.

They faithfully protected the library’s documents from outside intruders. They also preserved important records separately.

The problem was that libraries were beginning to be influenced by reality.

The moment when the reality that bound the library came to an end.

Everything started to twist.

[chain]

[seven]

[Fifth foreign news]

Extremely dangerous beings that exist in reality.

The library’s documents, the only clue that guaranteed their arrest, were damaged.

Not only did the end of reality accelerate, but the destruction spread to all dimensions.

The [librarian] system that some organization had created within the library also became strangely distorted.

All librarians were cursed and turned into corpses that could not die.

The system wandered all over the world looking for a successor.

A being with the ability to listen to the voice of truth.

A being with a faint sense of ‘I’, who can truly work for the entire universe.

An entity with minimal anomalous resistance to resist dangerous information.

At some point, Choi Se-rim became the ‘librarian’ of this place.

She has the ability to read other people’s thoughts regardless of time and space.

At the same time, because of that ability, it became difficult to maintain one’s self.

It has a female body that guarantees a certain level of anomalous resistance.

“After becoming a librarian, I was able to look into even the most dangerous information. That’s why I sealed my memories. Otherwise, I felt like I would die right away.”

Only then did I understand the contradictions I felt in Choi Se-rim’s actions.

She was trying to protect herself by fragmenting and recalling only as few memories as possible. Still, he faithfully moved toward his goal.

Although he left Choi Jun-ki to die and failed to save Park Seong-jin.

I also had to jump into countless crises.

The purpose was always the same.

Escape from this apartment.

Escape and go back to the reality you originally lived in.

Even if you escape this place, there is no point in escaping if the only thing outside is emptiness.

In theory, the [librarian] ability to access all information in the library presented only one method to Choi Se-rim.

How many steps did we skip between cause and effect and logic and logic?

Serim Choi held my hand tightly and said.

“So, I need you. When the right moment comes, I will hand over the authority of librarian to you.”

I just listened in silence.

“Only then can we reach the [ending] we want.”
