episode_0095

This story may simply be a story that can be brushed aside by shifting responsibility to the Chinese group that betrayed us at the time, or with the excuse that the doppelgängers look too similar.

That’s because, just as Su-yeon succeeded in saving me from the dead countless times and I am ultimately alive today, Su-a is also alive now, considering the results.

however.

‘You can’t do that.’

The moment of dying.

Even at the moment when my heart was pierced by my mistake and I was dying, I thought that I should not do that for the sake of Su-ah, who had been buffing me.

“5th floor. This was when we were fooled by a group of Chinese rankers and voted for 5-5 difficulty.”

“…”

Su-ah, who seemed to remember what happened that day, flinched slightly and continued to listen intently to my story.

Nyamu was sleeping, probably because she was tired, so I quietly told her what had happened so as not to wake her up.

“Stage 5 is a place where real monsters gather in an arena that looks like a colosseum, where doppelgängers who look exactly like us appear, who continuously heal wounds that would kill a normal person at once, and who use the skills we use in addition to other skills. It was.”

“…”

“It was even on difficulty level 5, so we first entered on difficulty level 5-5 and waited for a group gathered on the other side based on the Chinese ranker who promised to cooperate the day before to appear,”

“…?”

Su-ah looks up at me with puzzled eyes as I hear a story that is different from what she remembers.

“A group of doppelgangers appeared on the other side, and I, the doppelganger who received your 5-stack buff, was standing in the lead.”

“…? Oppa?”

“When I first got stuck with a guy who looked exactly like me, I had no choice but to get pushed away. A strong guy like that is overwhelmingly pushing me, so I have to be able to win.”

“?…”

“At that time, I used my skill Chivalry to teleport to someone else. My doppelganger probably went to Suyeon, seeing as my memory is not clear.”

“Oh, that’s right, as soon as my brother came, I pretended to be him, but I was so disgusted that I just disassembled him into pieces.”

“Did you say instantaneous movement?”

“Yes, my skill allows me to teleport to another person I designate. This is a skill that allows you to move freely inside or outside the tower.”

“Ah.. I’m sorry for interrupting the conversation. Can you continue talking?”

“..After that, in the Colosseum, where my doppelganger did not exist, a fight broke out between our group and a group of doppelgangers. And foolishly…”

I slowly knelt in front of Su-ah, who was looking at me with puzzled eyes.

“…I was so foolishly deceived by the doppelganger that I did something to your heart that I shouldn’t have done.”

I had nothing to say.

“…”

Su-ah couldn’t keep her mouth shut for a moment as she told a shocking story that she didn’t even know about.

however.

“After that, the doppelganger Sua disguised as you stabbed my heart. Of course, I was able to stay alive because the Fencer ring saved me at the time.”

“I.. what happened to me?”

“Just before you died, you gave me all your energy for me.”

“!…”

Everyone looked at Su-ah with a surprised expression.

“Truly, truly.. I hated myself at that moment. It broke my heart so much to see you giving me treatment and buffs while dying because of me alone… I tried to die out of guilt, but even at that moment, the magic power you left behind was keeping me alive until the end…”

“…”

“At that time, a little fairy appeared and told me that I could use regression, and from there, I borrowed regression from Soo-yeon, and after You and I and the 5th Floor, the slightly incoherent story I explained to people continued. A story about how he suddenly ran out alone, destroyed the entrance to the Colosseum, and fought 5-5’s doppelgangers alone.”

“…That’s why…”

“I was afraid that I would hurt you again.”

“…”

“…There was such a story.”

The guild leader, who was watching, looked at Su-ah.

Su-ah is trembling with her head down.

“I’m sorry, Su-ya. I really wanted to tell you someday, but I think it’s too late. I’m sorry and thank you, I love you so much.”

I felt like the burden I had built up in my heart had been lifted a little.

“..Somehow..”

Everyone focuses on Su-ah’s words.

“…After that day, my brother became much kinder.”

“…”

“And the fact that you were fiddling with me all day…”

“…?”

“They tell me to stop because I don’t like it..”

“?…”

“Over and over again..”

“…Suaya?”

“…heh.”

I felt alive.

And that too from Seolhee noona, who was staring at me intently.

“No.. I’m really the kind of guy who forces himself on me.. No, sister.”

“Yes, I believe it.”

“…Do you believe it?”

“Of course.”

It didn’t seem like my sister’s words were sincere, but I was glad that the misunderstanding was resolved.

In the first place.

“It’s okay.”

Su-ah didn’t seem to care much about this.

“I was just a little surprised, but I think there was nothing I could do about it. In fact, I looked so similar to my brother at the time that I was confused with his doppelganger.”

“..I’m wondering whether I should be thankful or not right now.”

“And for some reason, from that day on, my brother took everything he complained seriously, so I was really happy!”

“..Thank you for understanding.”

“Please pat me quickly as an apology.”

In response to Su-ah’s request to pat her head, he proudly leaned forward and went up on the bed behind her and patted Su-ah’s head generously.

“Why is it that my brother’s story of his return ends in a heartwarming way, but everyone says that about mine? And when are we going to discuss clearing the 10th floor?”

Oh right.

I forgot.

“Suyeon, you too come first.”

I should have petted Suyeon too, but I forgot.

“…”

Su-yeon makes a dumbfounded expression, but sits down next to Su-a without saying anything.

“You’ve been through a lot of trouble alone, and you’ve worked hard to save us all.”

In fact, the person who suffered the most among us was none other than Suyeon.

As I was stroking the head of Su-yeon, who was shaking slightly, with Su-a shaking her head as if feeling overwhelmed, Seol-hee, who had noticed me, came behind me and stroked my head.

“…”

The guild leader, who was watching the scene alone, sighed and took Nyamu, who was nodding off, and patted him.

.

The decision regarding the 10th floor attack began with Sister Seolhee’s ingenious agenda.

This is because the agenda that Seolhee noona brought up focused on ‘chivalry’, something that even Suyeon could not think of.

Hit and run.

Sooyeon clearly spoke with her own mouth.

When you conquer the 10th floor.

It took 25 days to kill so many demons and magical beasts.

Immediately after we received all the rewards from the tower, Su-yeon judged that it would take 15 to 20 days even if we could not enter the tower with somewhat trained Hyesung soldiers. The conclusion we came to was…

“How about hit and run?”

It was a so-called hit-and-run operation.

While revealing Sooyeon’s return, I also told the people gathered here about my skill Chivalry.

In addition, Seolhee said that there was a part of my chivalry skill that she was most curious about.

“Why did Cheonhwi take Nyamu with him?”

“Um…”

“Think about it when you moved chivalry. Why is it that not only Cheonhwi moves, but also clothes and items?”

It’s similar to “system… but the principle is definitely different. There is no such thing as being wrapped in light.”

” That’s right, even in the case of Nyamu, it was possible because you were holding Nyamu.”

“..Wasn’t it the power of love?”

“..Then shouldn’t I have moved along with you when you used chivalry?”

“Aha.”

“..Anyway, what I was thinking here is that Cheonhwi’s chivalry seems to allow people who are close to him to move together.”

Yes.

Until now, every time I entered and exited the tower with Nyamu, there was a point where I stayed close to Nyamu.

“In about 5 days from now, Cheonhwi’s magical power will return, so we will see how many people can move together at that time.”

“Is it good?”

Su-yeon obediently admires Seol-hee’s words.

“However, there is an unconditional condition.”

“Hmm?”

“If you enter the 10th floor, you must return home within 50 minutes.”

“..It’s because of regression, right?”

“No matter what happens, I can brush it off as if it never happened at least twice. If my brother doesn’t come back after 50 minutes, I’ll go back without hesitation and then keep him on the 10th floor at least until I receive the full reward twice. I won’t send it.”

“Agree.”

“I agree.”

“Even though I look like this, I also have a pensier’s ring?..”

“The condition is that even once the Fencer Ring is activated, you return home immediately. Just added.”

“…!”

Fencer’s ring.

An EX-grade item that can be used once every 24 hours to instantly heal all body injuries if any attack is deemed life-threatening.

There.

“First of all, there is a weapon that must be used here on the 10th floor.”

Soo-yeon brings a short, curved-looking dagger from outside and shows it to her.

“…Ah.. So war..?”

“Yes.”

“What is this?”

“Zenus’ Lightning Sword. It’s EX grade.”

“Zinus’ Lightning Sword?”

“…A sword that sparks lightning just by swinging it…”

“…?”

“The lightning doesn’t stop there.”

“..How does your sister know that? Are you a regressor?”

“I decided not to say that drip. It’s dangerous.”

“Haha. Sorry.”

Seolhee sighed and continued speaking.

“Suyeon, will it be okay if you follow Cheonhwi in?”

“Honestly, even at my current level, if you give me about 90… I am confident that I will take care of everything except for one demon lord. The problem is that if I get caught by that demon lord and die… I can’t handle it anymore.”

“Can’t I return before I die?”

“The Demon King is outside the standard. Just as I can’t defeat Lauriel no matter what I do, I can’t even compete with the Demon King himself unless I’m 100% myself. If I die, I can’t return. My skill is not death regression. However, only when 100% is restored can I hold on and use my curse of return to catch the devil.”

“…Wouldn’t someone in the world have death regression?”

“I think that person may have regressed countless times, and eventually used up all his skills and just died. In the 7th round, I also received the physical strengthening and magical power strengthening that can be received after receiving first place rewards for all floors. I barely met the specs after maxing them out.”

“You had a hard time…huh? Come to think of it… How about taking Nyamu to the 10th floor?”

“Wouldn’t it be too dangerous?”

“In the first place, if Nyamu is with us, we can all travel comfortably. Otherwise, we enter the 10th floor and Nyamu calls us here exactly 50 minutes later.”

“What if Nyamu falls asleep in the middle of the night?”

“Hmm…. One person will have to stay.”

We had a heated discussion for a long time until Nyamu woke up again and came up with a strategy perfect for conquering the 10th floor.

“There is still a lot of time left until the opening of the 10th floor, so something like this is possible.”

“Have you ever been like this in the past?”

“Never. So, my heart is pounding right now and I feel like I’m going on a new adventure for the first time in 5-6 years.”

“Of course, it’s the same map.”

“Let’s sleep. From now on, everyone will stop talking about regression at all. We should follow today’s plan without bringing it up out of habit, but pretend not to know about the regression and even if others ask, we should just assume that we don’t know.”

“I understand.”

“Yes.”

“Yes!”

“Confirm.”

“Pyeong!”

“Now then, we will proceed with this in 5 days…”

“Ah, if you’re going to be busy in 5 days, there’s something you have to do now.”

Everyone turns to me and focuses on what I suddenly said.

“Let’s have our wedding first.”

“…!”

“Individual wedding with Seolhee noona on Earth within 3 days, joint wedding in the spirit world within 2 days.”

“!!!”

“!!..”

“Hurry up and get your wedding dress now…!”

“Pyeong!”

“…”

“Hyerin’s older sister!! Quickly, among the guild members, there is a wedding hall…”
