by adminStill, I didn’t make a serious mistake because I was nervous, but it seems like this alone was enough to hurt Eun-jeong’s feelings.
Eunjeong looked at me as if I was a strange person and slowly averted her gaze.
Still, perhaps the meaning of my words was conveyed in the end, and neither of us made the hasty choice to become Hwashin.
“So how did you really know?”
I answered Jaehoon, who was curious.
“Well, I also received an offer to become Hwashin.”
It’s a lie.
What I knew was simply because I had read the original.
However, the lie came out so calmly that even I was fooled.
Should I like this?
I felt like I had reached a high level of lying.
“…To whom?”
It was Eunjeong who was suspicious.
I lied as if I were breathing, without even changing my facial expression.
“To the Goddess of Justice.”
[The Goddess of Justice is embarrassed that her name is being sold.]
Oops, I was watching.
Well, it didn’t matter anyway.
Anyway, that constellation was a good fruit to exploit.
The type of constellation that forgives everything as long as it is just.
Even if I sell my name, as long as I don’t do anything unfair or bad, they will forgive me.
Even now, he’s just embarrassed, but he hasn’t said he’s angry with me or anything.
[The tutorial ends completely.]
[The first mission begins two days later.]
[Survive until then.]
A message window appeared before everyone’s eyes once again.
“Two days later, something like this again…”
Someone muttered in a despairing voice.
I guess everyone feels the same way.
Please note that the first mission will be completely different from the tutorial.
The rewards and the difficulty of the missions.
I asked the two people.
“Why don’t you two move together?”
“Yes?”
“…Yes?”
It was a similar answer, but Jae-hoon looked embarrassed, wondering if it was really addressed to him, and Eun-jeong looked blatantly uncomfortable.
Even in the face of that look, I took out my own negotiating card.
“You both received compensation, right? I also received compensation. Hehe.”
“Ah…”
Why did you laugh?
This is what it looks like when you say it well and relax.
Even now, the atmosphere feels a little strange because of this.
Eun-Jeong’s expression of discomfort appeared for a moment as if she was interested in the reward I had received until she started laughing, but after hearing a sinister laugh, she was glaring at me sideways as if I were some strange person.
I hope you don’t look at me that way.
Because I don’t like myself like this.
As a true person, every word you say is important.
“…What reward did you get?”
Eun-jeong said as if she wanted to listen and see, and Jae-hoon next to her looked at Eun-jeong in confusion.
I said confidently.
“Hub area.”
“I’m sorry. I already have that too.”
It was an expected answer.
Just in case, I tore off the arm of the doll mask, but the compensation they received seems to be the same as the original.
In that case, Eun-jeong would have gained the base and physical ability skills, and Jae-hoon would have gained the weapon drawing rights and reflex skills.
He hurriedly spoke to Eun-jeong, who was trying to go somewhere while holding Jae-hoon’s arm.
“How about the information?”
“…information?”
Eunjeong’s steps stopped at the words I said.
I tried to refrain from commenting as much as possible because the Constellations were still watching, but it was a mixed bag.
“I received information about the next mission from the Goddess of Justice!”
[The king of the dwarves is interested.]
[The smoker sees through your lies.]
[The Goddess of Justice is shocked and denies that she has ever done anything like that.]
“…Really?”
“If you mention the goddess, wouldn’t it be a lie…?”
Eun-jeong asked again, and Jae-hoon gave strength to my words.
Well, usually you would think that way.
In fact, if you do something like this to another Constellation, you will have to be prepared to be punished in the future.
But the Goddess of Justice had no need to worry.
…Even though I won’t be able to use it often.
By the way, although not many in number, some well-known constellations responded.
I must speak carefully.
Even though I gave them information about the next mission, they were still hesitating whether it was okay to act with me.
However, he did not turn around and leave like before.
What happened today must have been a shock, so they probably want information about the next mission.
It was a natural situation since his life was at stake.
I spoke to put an end to the worries the two of them were having.
“I will also give you the base rights I have.”
“…Why?”
“Huh?”
Eunjeong asked me, saying it was strange no matter how much she thought about it.
“Why do you want to go to such lengths to come with us?”
It was a very natural curiosity.
And it was also an ambiguous question to answer hastily.
To be honest, I could answer in many ways.
Because you are the main characters of this world, because I enjoy the webtoon you are in, or because it is my quest.
But I shouldn’t have said any of these.
It was wrong to tell them, and above all, this fact should not be found out by the Constellation.
So I just said it out loud.
Follow your instincts.
“I like pretty women.”
“…Wow…”
“…Ugh…”
Jae-hoon was impressed by my courage, and Eun-jeong was shocked.
[The dwarf king laughs heartily at your honesty.]
At least one of the Constellations laughed.
I’m glad. thank god.
I also wiped my face with my hands out of shame.
“…Let’s talk among ourselves for a moment.”
The two people talked for a while away from me at a distance that I couldn’t hear.
Then after a while he came back to me.
Looking at Eun-jeong’s expression of disapproval, fortunately, it seemed like it went as I intended.
“You are really giving us information about the base and mission, right?”
“Okay then!”
I didn’t need the base area anyway, and I was planning on providing information about the mission in a coordinated manner.
As long as the future does not change.
That will work.
“Where do you two plan to go?”
“My house is nearby. I’ll go there first.”
Jaehoon said with a slight smile.
I knew it, but I just asked for no reason.
Let’s check if the future has changed.
As expected, the future has not changed.
Jaehoon then glanced back.
And then he looked towards me.
To be exact, to the people behind me, who can’t do this or that, in the parking lot.
I looked at those lingering gazes and spoke coldly.
“It’s greed. Greed.”
“…Yes?”
“It’s hard to save your life, so don’t worry about other people. Die.”
The words became a little clunky, but Jaehoon nodded with a surprised expression, as if my meaning had been conveyed correctly.
Eunjeong seemed to not like me like that and gave me a small warning.
“…Why are you speaking so sharply to Jaehoon?”
“Oh, sorry. Without even knowing.”
It’s a little unfair.
What should I do if I relax a little and say things like this?
Still, Eunjeong didn’t say anything more to me.
It might be because he thought that he had told Jaehoon what he should have said on his behalf.
I remember that in the original work, Eun-jeong awkwardly comforted and persuaded Jae-hoon.
“Wait a minute, are you going to leave like that?”
“…Yes?”
When I stopped the two people who were leaving the large shopping mall, Jaehoon turned to me and asked what was the problem.
Are you serious?
Well, I think it was like this in the original as well.
I didn’t feel any discomfort when reading the webtoon, but when I saw it in person, I couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
“Stop, I need to get some food and equipment.”
“Yes? No, theft is still…”
“Stealing?”
I frowned.
Even if you can’t see my expression right now, I’m sure I’m looking quite frustrated.
I sighed and looked towards Eunjeong.
Eunjeong must have known.
It would be a good idea to take some food or equipment with you from this shopping mall.
“It’s a disaster situation. Doll masks are attacking, and orcs are roaming the streets. In a situation like this, no one would say anything if you took some stuff.”
“…”
“Right?”
When I asked Eun-jeong as if confirming for the last time, she reluctantly nodded.
Jae-Hoon, who was still hesitant despite my words, slowly walked back into the shopping mall when Eun-Jeong joined him.
“Because it is a disaster situation…”
“Yes, yes.”
I walked around the shopping mall trying to comfort Jaehoon.
As it is a large shopping mall, I was able to take care of myself after taking a walk around.
“…”
“…”
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
After shopping, two people were looking at me at the door as if I was a little puzzled.
“…Isn’t that a bit much?”
Jaehoon spoke carefully and pointed to the two suitcases being dragged in both my hands.
…I see?
Why did I put so much in it?
Is this all the influence of the villain?
It seemed like it had a bit of an effect not only on the way I spoke, but also on my mental state.
My greed has increased.
“…I’ll carry it carefully without making a sound.”
The two people looked at me with dumbfounded expressions, as if that wasn’t a problem, and then left the shopping mall.
Even though I couldn’t seem to like her, I thought that at least Eun-jeong’s liking for me had hit rock bottom.
Maybe it’s a minus.
“There are a lot of monsters on the streets.”
It was just as Jaehoon said.
Many of the monsters seen outside during the tutorial were devices.
A device to prevent leaving the mission area where the tutorial takes place.
Therefore, now that the tutorial is over, the number, type, and danger of the monsters have decreased.
Nevertheless, compared to the doll mask, it was a much stronger monster.
“This way.”
Jaehoon’s house was very close to the shopping mall.
It was a villa.
It was said that you could see the shopping mall from the villa window, so it was really within reach if you fell.
The problem was that there was an uninvited guest near the villa entrance.
The three of us hid in the alley and spied that presence.
“Is that… is it really that?”
Jaehoon asked me.
He was asking if what he thought was true.
I nodded and spoke calmly.
“Yes, it’s a goblin.”
