I woke up and reflexively turned on my phone and realized that there was no response. I thought the input was chewed, but no matter how many times I repeat it, the black screen remains.
“Eh.”
The battery ran out. Did you mean to charge it in advance?
Yesterday I tried to check the notifications before going to bed, but I was so tired that I just fell asleep…, it was a mistake.
‘I haven’t checked the status window change yet.’
First of all, since [Essence Quest] has been upgraded to ‘Medium’, is the upper limit of conditional activation lowered? Originally, it was only possible to copy only intermediate magic, so it seems right to think that higher grades are also possible.
Also opener characteristics.
Because it is a characteristic that did not exist in the original, the effect is extraordinary.
[-Children know a lot of secrets. And I like to unravel those secrets.]
Rather, I inadvertently remembered the words that Noah Park had left yesterday.
‘I said that I would get information by getting close with the kids.’
This was an action that was not biased toward any inclination, neither good nor bad.
In a way, objective and wise action without being swayed by emotions. But the thing that bothers me is that this behavior is not like the main character.
“ha···. After all, this damn game.”
It feels like the butterfly effect of trivial events that I didn’t realize is getting bigger and bigger. Have you experienced anything other than the ‘Faith’ event? At this rate, I thought it would be difficult to kill Olivia later.
···Unless my playable is Noah Park, it was something I had to endure.
Anyway, I was tired, so I got out of bed and drew the curtains by the window. The sun never rises here, so the sun never comes in.
“what···?”
At that time, outside the window, I saw Drakan and Riel walking on a street that was not yet visited by people. There were no street lights, and the red moon did not rise, so he could barely find the shape.
‘Are you coming this way?’
I watched silently and saw that they were heading out of town, not coming to our dorm. I opened the front door to see where I was going.
Cheeky! The loud sound attracts attention. Drakhan and Riel, who were passing by, turned their heads towards me. To check who it was for a moment, I opened my mouth after looking at the building.
“Seo-Han. Are you going too?”
I went out into the street and asked.
“It’s still early in the morning, where are you going?”
To that question, Riel with her hands in her pockets answered. It was a robe with a different design than yesterday.
“I’m going to clean up the demons. It is time to resurrect.”
“Ugh. Then I’ll add It feels like the price of accommodation.”
“Five? That’s nice.”
I hurried into the house to get my weapon.
As long as there’s Drakan, I’m there, but mana doesn’t matter, but since I listened to Noah Park, I couldn’t stay still.
The classroom was empty.
Since it was a class with a small number of people, the fact that there were four empty seats had a great presence.
In response to Tails’ worried murmur, Oh Yun-seong replied. In this situation, he was the only aspiring hero who showed the same appearance as before.
“There are cases where the gate is thrown out when the gate is closed. I wouldn’t have been trapped in it.”
“That’s right. When I looked it up, it was a surprisingly common case.”
Castel, who had her arms crossed to signify agreement, nodded her head. He received reports of related cases with the cooperation of the imperial family. Contrary to words, however, his expression was not so bright.
“…more people disappeared inside the gate, though.”
squeaky. Hong Jae-yu, who had closed his eyes and listened to their conversation, stood up. Then, he approached Oh Yoon-ha, who was sitting next to him.
“uh? What is it all of a sudden?”
Perhaps he was thinking of something else, Oh Yoon-ha turned his head, shuddering at Hong Jae-yu’s call. Jae-Yoo Hong asked as she recalled the scene she had seen last time.
“What did you talk about with Ryu Seo-yeon that day? Master was also with you.”
“it? It was said that Black Hawk would provide assistance in this case.”
As Yoon-ha Oh speaks and turns her finger round and round, an afterimage of mana remains.
“We are developing equipment to explore the flow of mana from the outside.”
“Development?”
“Perhaps it was the equipment that was secretly supported by the Corrupted Hero quest. It has the effect of exploring the flow, so if that doesn’t work, it means that Drakhan is there.”
Equipment to explore the flow of mana. It was intended to use its function in reverse.
“But in this case, the original function is to detect and find the mana of other children. If you’re not in the safe zone, it means you’ve disappeared outside.”
“Okay. I’m glad the order was delayed. If it was Yoosung Academy, they might have ignored the disappearance of the children and told them to proceed with the quest as scheduled.”
From behind, Yurin said in a voice full of lamentation.
“You must have known that it would be difficult to carry out a mission unless the core force was missing. I’m glad that a support team was formed to save the children right away…”
“What is your core strength? If it happened at the gate anyway, that’s all.”
Hong Jae-yu muttered as if he was full of energy, but Yu-rin looked at him with a rotten face.
“···Hong Jae-Yoo. You’re like that, but why did you apply for support in the first place? Makmak, do you get pleasure from doing things that are different from those words?”
Hong Jae-yu, who was stabbed in a pincup, stared at Yurin with a stiff face, and made a small indigo blue magic sword in his hand.
“The coward I was most afraid of talks the most. Isn’t it?”
Jeonggok was also stabbed by Yurin, and there was nothing to say.
Whoops! Drakhan transformed Riel into a black spear and pierced through the monsters at once. The process of cleaning the respawned monsters seemed very familiar.
‘Have you been living like this for ten years?’
Since it was a ‘Nether’ area, there were a lot of monsters. It will take some time though, but it seemed that Drakhan could handle it alone.
I silently watched the situation and took out the Assault Hawk to help.
[Would you rather use me?]
Ego Sword’s subtle words were heard, but he shook his head. Giving up is just an excuse.
‘Park Noah is right.’
You should get information on this search.
I aimed the gun and tried to make [Matan] with [Mana Conversion]. But there was no reaction from the gun barrel. It seemed that he was quite far from Drakhan, but even this distance was within the scope of his personality.
It moved in the opposite direction to Drakhan, who was slaughtering demons.
It fell to the point where it was impossible to have a conversation without raising my voice, and only then did my mana begin to be transferred to the Assault Hawk.
‘Whoa. Obviously, the range of personality is bigger than the original.’
I aimed my gun at the monster running towards me.
bang! When the trigger was pulled, the monster exploded by the stronger magic bullet. Black blood flowed out, and soon it turned to powder and the body disappeared.
After cleaning up like that, Drakhan said to me without showing any signs of exhaustion.
“That’s how I see it.”
It was just stingy. It was as if my sly intentions of recognizing my individuality had been discovered.
“You don’t ask about your parents.”
Oh, that one? I didn’t ask because I wasn’t really curious.
I don’t know what kind of relationship it is from Drakan’s point of view, so is his mouth itchy?
‘It seems that Seo Ji-han’s parents and Drakhan had a favorable relationship.’
Although Drakhan was called a ‘magic hunter’, that was only because he lost consciousness and instinctively hunted.
I do not know how they met, but it was not strange that they had a friendly relationship with the wizard. He was from Earth, so he wouldn’t have had the revenge he had for a wizard from the Tower.
“I have lost my memory, so I’m not really curious. With so much to do now, I don’t think the past is a priority.”
“Hmm, Seo-Han. I have one younger sister. I haven’t seen you in a long time.”
Then, all of a sudden, Drakhan confessed something out of the ordinary. If it’s her sister, she’s referring to Mika Beatrice.
‘…why are you telling me this?’
Without answering, he silently looked at Drakhan. As if he was shy too, Drakhan began to talk while fiddling with his gray hair.
“You must have suffered a lot because of me. It wasn’t enough to be eroded, because he killed wizards and heroes and ran outside. Most of all, the fact that my awakened personality is a counter to wizards is a big thing.”
“Why are you telling me that?”
Even if Drakhan had a favor for me because of my past, it was an act that I would not understand because I did not know it. In the beginning, even in the original story, the fact that Drakhan had a younger sister was also a well-hidden Easter.
“I mean don’t regret it. If your memories come back and your parents’ memories aren’t perfect, you might be wondering why I didn’t ask.”
“···no. it’s okay.”
At my unchanging answer, Drakhan grinned. He seemed unwilling to recommend any further.
“It is said that the environment changes the personality, and I think that is true.”
“···you are.”
“If you met your sister, what would you like to do?”
Until now, I had never talked to Drakhan in ‘The 103rd Tower’. I wanted to know what a sane guy might be thinking right now.
“They will tell you to kill me.”
“I’ll break his shackles with that.”
It didn’t matter if he was conscious or unconscious…
It’s not like an easter egg. Drakhan originally intended to kill Mika Beatrice. For her sister she got her finger on her because of herself.
‘···The fallen hero scenario can be cleared according to the original plan.’
For some reason, he became disillusioned with me and asked other questions.
“Then what about the village?”
Drakhan has a village he is currently guarding. It is also a place where there are people who give faith enough to gain faith.
“If I were to die, the location of the village would have been known already. Isn’t it?”
Whoo! Saying so, Drakhan put his weapon on my neck.
“This is a threat, Seo Ji-han.”
“This village is not my protection, it is the victims of my expropriation. Keep that in mind.”
“…you want me to tell you when you go back to the academy?”
At my words, Drakhan lowered his weapon and nodded. As I watched it, I spit out the thoughts that came to my mind.
“Don’t you think you can come back here by any chance?”
“People in power in the tower have a lot of gain and loss. As long as you can deal with erosion, that’ll be a huge help to the tower. I don’t even care if the wizards are dead.”
“haha. What is my personality? As long as they exist, they remain a menacing enemy.”
“You have shackles too. It’s something you can’t act recklessly.”
“The little sister you just talked about, life…!”
Drakhan grabbed me by the collar and glared at me. The power made me sleepy.
“Watch your mouth.”
Contrary to raising the weapon earlier, it had the momentum to really kill him. But I wasn’t surprised.
Since he had a calm mind, there was no way his ‘strong mind’ could be activated. Because it was already expected that this would happen.
I stare at him quietly and gently let go of his hand. I put my clothes on and opened my mouth again.
“What was your little sister’s talent?”
“great. He was a guy who would see the light somehow.”
“Then where do you think you would have gone when you grew up?”
“Perhaps he went to a separate power, the Imperial House… No matter how hard I tried, being my little sister would have been a big problem.”
“Yes. As long as you’re an imperial power, it’s a light shackle to you. But in the tower, the fact that you have shackles is a reassuring factor.”
“You… how do you know my little sister?”
aldamada. I also took a lot of MAX likeness shots.
However, it is correct that I do not know the sibling relationship between Drakhan and Mika Beatrice.
“Is it possible?”
Perhaps it was just something he had done, Drakhan shook his head.
“Even if I said that, I have no intention of going back. It might be possible, but anyway, it’s my pride that I don’t want to bow down to those guys. But why are you telling me this? Have you ever heard of it?”
Perhaps as a joke, I raised one corner of my mouth and laughed, but I didn’t.
“I think it will be similar. The more I got to know you, the more I realized that I didn’t want to fight.”
Drakhan’s expression hardened.
Seeing that, I calmly cleared my mind.
This was my attempt too.
Twisting the flow with the original.
For ‘my own ending’.
