‘Why on earth do I feel this way?’
It was a series of incomprehensible events.
It was also unnatural that her family suddenly came here.
At least, it is difficult for normal Yeonguk people to come out.
Especially because most children who throw tantrums like that will die.
This was medicine.
When I thought about it, it was strange.
I thought Lily was definitely not a homunculus.
I thought the man caught at that time was a homunculus.
It was different from usual.
Something was strange.
I made a decision too hastily.
And it was right.
Lily may not know, but at least the man who claimed to be her twin was a real homunculus.
I naturally noticed that.
It could have been a trap set by someone.
‘What on earth?’
I don’t know exactly what the result will be.
Why do I feel like these people are homunculi?
‘I feel like I want to kill myself to find out the truth… That’s dangerous.’
Killing someone is risky.
If it’s real, it won’t matter, but if it’s fake, your relationship with Lily will be very strained.
And even if it’s true, it could be just a coincidence and not my intuition.
‘This is my first time like this… damn.’
WFS was an online game.
It wasn’t a VR game.
I felt things that I couldn’t feel when I saw the scenery filtered through a screen.
It was a feeling that was difficult to describe in words.
“What… There’s a problem… ?”
I guess I felt strange as a long time passed without saying anything.
She spoke to me.
“No. just… what… ”
Unlike before, the proper story did not flow.
How should I say it?
I feel like your family is a homunculus and I want to kill them.
How can I say something like this?
Even to me, he really looks like a crazy psychopath.
“Sister! sister! Who is this person? What do you do?”
“Sister! Who is this person?”
Dwarves, less than 1/3 of me, joined in.
Dwarves are also humans, so there was nothing wrong with what they said.
The way I clung to him as if he was curious seemed cute on the outside.
However, an unknown feeling of disgust began to surge inside.
weird?
I like children?
Even if a homunculus is a homunculus, can this level of estrangement occur?
I’m in a panic.
The woman believed to be Lily’s biological mother opened her mouth.
“So who is this person? if… Boyfriend?”
Once again a great change occurred in my heart.
If it were like usual, it would have been normal to feel embarrassed or dumbfounded.
I felt nothing from what she said.
Just like when I heard Lily talk about invention.
No facial expression was made.
It felt like I was reading a script.
(Mom): (In an uncertain voice.) So who is this person? if… boy friend?
(Male lead): (embarrassed expression) Aha. no? We just know each other.
The actor’s expression when he saw the script proceeding like this.
That’s probably the expression I was making.
‘I’m confused.’
I couldn’t figure out what happened.
Are they really human?
Is it just my imagination?
Or is it really a homunculus?
I couldn’t be sure of anything.
‘Recall it. ‘What is the difference between a homunculus and a human?’
Homunculi are humans created through alchemy.
Outwardly, it is a perfectly identical human imitation.
However, if they are clearly different, there are certainly differences.
Or it’s the same thing.
The cause of this sense of discomfort may be hidden there.
‘There is no physical difference between a homunculus and a human. The difference is that it has a separate function in the brain… That there is no soul.’
I thought about what I knew and came across a clue.
It was because I remembered something that happened just a few weeks ago.
‘wait for a sec… soul?’
Homunculi have no soul.
But I have powers related to the soul.
Ghost Swordsmanship.
The spiritual law written by the World Tree in the hope that humans will reach it.
This technique communicates with the soul by weakening the connection between the body and the soul.
Being able to communicate with souls.
Conversely, the absence of the soul can also be felt.
I thought I could roughly understand why they were able to catch a homunculus.
‘Igrasil, who has perfectly mastered the ghost sword technique… I wasn’t even born when Yeon-guk fell.
After I was born, I did not go to Yeonguk, but I had the Demon Lord create my neck. That’s why I didn’t know… !’
There is also necromancy, another technique for manipulating spirits.
Heukju, the person who mastered this, was someone who did not exist until just 200 years ago.
It would be difficult to find out until I mastered it, so of course I had no choice but to not know.
‘But that doesn’t mean the sample is too small.’
There is still doubt as to whether this sense of discomfort is truly caused by a homunculus.
This is because, as Lily said, if the whole family is really a homunculus, then she must also be a homunculus.
The entire family was a homunculus, but the probability that she was not the only one was low.
I would have been sure if it wasn’t for the last name Barbarossa.
“No. Something like that.”
“So? Then who is this person?”
“If you think about it, it doesn’t matter. He is the one who has the power to send us out.”
As I was lost in thought without saying anything, Lily, who could not stand the silence, spoke first.
I think it was my personal preference to be misunderstood in that way.
“It’s dangerous. Why are you here? Get in quickly.”
“I don’t know if my daughter is doing something dangerous, but I should come visit her at least once. I even lost my memory a few years ago.”
“You were living fine in the first place.”
“At first glance, he looks like a fraudster. It seemed like he was trying to do something by luring a woman like that. I guess it wasn’t right?”
“There is something trustworthy. If I had tried to scam him in the first place, I would have just outright killed him and taken it. At least the possibility of fraud is low.”
“Oh my? That’s a good thing.”
As I listened to the conversation, it became even more strange.
Why don’t people use Yeonguk’s unique conversational style?
Something like a noble would say.
Yeonguk people do not usually use sentences with a soft and flowing form.
It could be a coincidence, though. It looked even more strange due to the many suspicious features that overlapped.
Now, the possibility that it happened due to overlapping probabilities has become meaningless.
So it was necessary to prevent the evidence from escaping.
“So you came here because you were worried about your daughter?”
“That’s right. No matter how old she is, she is still my daughter.”
“Haha. That’s the law.”
Even though it is a homunculus, it is designed similarly to humans.
So, they don’t show awkward behavior often.
When you are doubted, it is you who suffers.
No matter how much you don’t like it, if the situation is natural, the homunculus should act that way.
“Then how about staying here for a while? Your daughter signed a contract with us. When this is over, I can let you live outside the country.”
There are two things I get from this proposal.
Firstly, we can tell if they are trying to contact a homunculus.
Second, we can know exactly whether they are homunculi.
For me, there was no immediate solution.
But other beings have a solution.
The homunculus I kept.
Since the proper amount of time has not passed yet, the incident will take place in a few days.
It’s worth a try.
“Yes? I wonder if it’s rude… ”
“We also needed an insider. Corporate directors don’t know the real facts. So ”
“Usually, families can work cheaper. It’s easier to move on because you can just combine the money.
Just like 100 million baht to one person feels bigger than 1 million baht to 100 people. It’s all the same, 100 million baht.”
“I’m not sure what you’re talking about, but… I will do that. Please take good care of my daughter.”
Of course she agreed.
It is right for a mother like this to either allow this or forbid her daughter from hanging out at all.
However, because she wants her two children to go out.
She can’t deny the results.
So this is the most natural result.
‘Is it natural because it’s real? Maybe he acted like that because he was a homunculus… It will be revealed in a few days.’
A few days later. The day we interviewed again the homunculus we captured.
Her treatment will be decided.
“Please follow me for now. I’ll give you a place to stay for a while.”
I dragged him around and headed to where the Red Print directors were.
The directors of Red Print heard the situation and provided a place to live.
The shelter provided was not just a place for horses, but a kind of prison.
A prison where they can never do anything else.
“What on earth are you thinking?”
“Anyway, once everything is over, I’ll send you out. By then, all the homunculi will have died.”
“I guess so.”
Lily seemed dissatisfied as if she felt something strange.
I really couldn’t say anything else.
Because in effect, it was no different from holding the family hostage.
“If I tell my family that I am a homunculus… ”
“That won’t happen.”
In the first place, you should be concerned that your family, not you, are homunculi.
After quite some time, night came to Yeonguk.
The night of Yeon-guk was different from the night of other countries.
The country was bright even at night.
This was because work was more efficient at night.
The cold atmosphere spreads downward. It is said that by using it, work can be done more efficiently.
It was around that time that Redmond, the director who had signed with us, returned.
“Now. That’s it. First, Ka’Kil promised to cooperate with the Red Print and Lord Abraxas.”
“What about shareholders? Is it more than half?”
“The Chairman accounts for approximately 6%, and if you include all board members and their families, it will account for approximately 61%. It’s enough.”
“It was good. It’s perfect.”
Now it’s clear.
Red Print and Cakill are in an alliance with each other.
“Then, shall we begin the actual meeting?”
“I will prepare it in advance. however… What should the topic be? If you vaguely say salvation, it may sound strange”
Salvation or reconstruction of the nation is too comprehensive.
It could be argued that euthanasia is salvation.
The point was to do this properly to prevent strange claims from directors.
“Not all directors view you favorably. There are also cases where the true intention of being an imperial guard is questioned. Also, some people think it is a red print operation.
Since it is said that he is an Auror Master, there will probably be many people who will try to refute it. The reason we decided to cooperate now is purely because we are aware of Kakill’s taboo.”
“Unlike Redprint, people who were not there are the problem. Sheesh. It’s twisted.
Originally, it would have been like Red Print, breaking the taboo and going into the headquarters and making a fuss. That time, of course.”
“Changje presented the goods.”
This is because things came out of the dome of creation and got twisted.
In the end, nothing really helped.
There’s just a little more work to do.
Because it would have gone on like this anyway.
“There is a good topic. Shall we do that?”
“If it’s okay with you. Anything is fine.”
I brought up the real story to him who was curious.
“Communism.”
