This Is Not a Game Chapter 121

You look so good

The place Yooseong headed was Gwanghwamun.

There wasn’t any particular reason.

Just a foreigner… … No, Gyeongbokgung was the only place that came to my mind while thinking about which tourist destination would be suitable for people from another world.

However, the decision made in moderation without much thought turned out to be the best choice in the end.

“Wow!”

Aris exploded in admiration as she saw the scene unfolding before her eyes.

Numerous people walking the streets wearing neat and stylish clothes.

Numerous wagons running on huge, well-maintained roads.

A huge castle gate built in an exotic style that I have never seen in my life, and huge buildings rising as if piercing the sky.

Everything was amazing and new.

Aris wasn’t the only one feeling that kind of emotion.

‘… … Am I right on Earth?’

It is so different from the Gwanghwamun he knew.

People carrying weapons the size of adult men and people roaming the streets wearing flashy armor that looks like something out of a game.

Some people jump over the road or fly through the sky because they do not want to wait for the signal, while others get out of the car and run with their feet because the road is blocked.

Guild promotional videos play on the building’s display board, and there are many vendors selling monster-related goods on the streets.

It is a surreal landscape like watching a game or a movie.

‘When I went to America, I was busy catching monsters, so I didn’t know, but it’s changed a lot.’

I constantly checked how the world works through web surfing, but I only came across fragmentary images through the screen. It was the first time I had ever been outside and checked myself, so the shock Meteor felt was by no means inferior to the shock felt by Aris.

At first, I planned to give them a tour and go back, but soon, like Aris, Yoosung fell in love with seeing this and that.

“Yoosung! look at that! An incredibly huge wagon is moving!”

Aris, who was making a fuss while looking at the bus, grabbed Yoosung’s hand as if he found something more interesting.

Yuseong, who was distracted by the contractor passing between people with a gun casually, made a strange expression as he looked at Aris, who pulled his hand.

Aris.

The client of the first commemorative quest.

A clone of the great witch who single-handedly destroyed a kingdom.

A girl who was resurrected as a gynoid in another world, Earth, with the help of cutting-edge science and technology.

He even had the experience of moving her body, so it’s not just a metaphor, no one in the world knows about her as well as he does.

Just a moment ago, Yoosung thought so.

‘… … You want to go outside?’

‘I want to see with my own eyes what kind of world Yuseong’s world is and how it differs from mine!’

‘Well, maybe that would be a bit difficult? It hasn’t been long since I got a new body, so there might be some problems. I think it’s better to go outside after getting used to it.’

‘If something seems strange, I’ll tell you right away! It’s been so frustrating being locked up all this time.’

But it was just an illusion.

Aris, who obtained an entity capable of interacting with reality and became an active participant, showed a different appearance than when she was a passive observer who could not affect reality.

It was a natural thing.

Aris was a human being who could think for herself, not an NPC who moved according to a set code.

When the situation changes, the thoughts change, and when the thoughts change, the actions change.

It was a fact that he clearly knew, but the way Aris, who always seemed obedient, argued against her opinion and insisted on her opinion was as surprising as seeing the changed city in person.

“… … .”

Aris, who had been talking nonstop, suddenly shut up.

Yoosung turned his head to where her gaze was heading and smiled bitterly.

A stall selling street food such as tteokbokki, tempura, and chicken skewers.

Aris, who was so dazed that she wondered if there was something wrong with her function, barely came to her senses after waving her hand in front of her eyes.

“I want to eat?”

“no. it’s okay.”

“What is okay? I don’t think it would be strange if saliva dripped down.”

“… … I want to eat. But it is impossible with this body.”

It was unknown whether the gynoids created by Sophia had the ability to consume food, whether the gynoids could sense the taste even if they did, and whether the sense of taste would be fed back to Aris.

Aris, who didn’t know about gynoids but knew about golems, decided that it was impossible to eat food with this body, and put on a disappointed expression.

“Don’t be too disappointed. I will find a way once.”

“really?”

“It hasn’t even been a day since you got a body, right? There’s plenty of room for improvement. I’ll ask Sophia to add a function that allows her to feel the senses, and I’ll try to fix the secret arts.”

“Yoosung… … .”

“It’s burdensome, so don’t look at me with those eyes.”

Yuseong, who pushed the clinging Aris forehead with his finger, looked back at his actions and frowned.

If I had been myself before, if I had been myself before I got the goggles, I would never have said that.

But at some point, he was slowly changing.

‘Is this a positive change or a negative change?’

After thinking about it for a while, Yoosung decided to just accept this change.

It is because I thought that although I felt, sympathized with, and understood the feelings of others to some extent, it did not affect my way of thinking or values.

Even though I felt emotions just by looking at the quest [No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I’m the main character], I was able to think of all kinds of terrible methods and execute them without any problems.

A change of this magnitude is acceptable.

“I felt it even when I watched the video, but I think Yooseong-nim’s world is really great. A city with so many buildings and people. I have never imagined a sight like this, even in my dreams.”

“Aren’t there cities like this in your world?”

“I do not know. Rumor has it that the capital of the empire is beautiful enough to be called the City of the Gods, but I’ve never seen it… … .”

Yuseong, who was walking while chatting with each other, suddenly stopped walking just like Aris did.

Aris, who followed Yoosung’s gaze, burst out laughing.

“Do you have any equipment you need?”

“No, not like that, just curious. Not too long ago, we couldn’t see a sight like that in our world.”

“Oh, come to think of it, I originally said that Yooseong-nim’s world was a peaceful world without monsters, right?”

“There were no monsters, but it wasn’t peaceful. But it wasn’t a dangerous world to buy and sell stuff like that on the street. At least in this country. Can I go take a look?”

“Sure.”

A stall with various weapons, armors, and miscellaneous goods on display.

The owner, who was watching with a hawk’s eye to see if someone would steal the goods, was startled when he saw an approaching meteor, Aris to be exact.

A beautiful girl with gray hair and golden eyes.

The man, who came to his senses belatedly, entertained the guests with a genuine smile, not a sales smile.

“Is there anything you are looking for?”

“I just want to take a look.”

“It is nice to see. Feel free to take a look. haha.”

Yoosung left behind the strangely kind owner and took a closer look at the items on display.

Some were made of ordinary materials, some were made of monster materials, and some were a combination of the two materials.

‘The level of things made with ordinary materials is higher in this side, and the level of things made with monster materials is higher in the other world. Mixing the two is not the same.’

One thing was certain: there was no class that would be of interest to him.

The highest-grade item is a D-grade sword sharpened from a monster’s tooth.

Other people wouldn’t know, but it wasn’t something the user himself needed.

‘As expected, is this the limit for things that can be obtained on Earth?’

The only things that can be used on Earth are modern weapons, and weapons and artifacts from other worlds are much better.

Yooseong’s gaze, which was looking through the items, stopped at one place.

An ordinary hairpin in the shape of a blue flower, nothing special.

Yuseong, who was looking at Aris and the hairpin, said to the owner.

“How much is it?”

“It’s five thousand won.”

Yooseong took out a 10,000 won bill from his wallet and handed it to the owner, then picked up a hairpin that looked the same but in a different color and held it out towards Aris.

“Why did you do this to me… … .”

“I think it will suit you.”

“uh… … .”

A red-blue hairpin.

Aris, who looked down at the hairpin for a long time, said with a rare serious expression instead of the usual sloppy smile.

“thank you.”

“Thank you. It only costs ten thousand won.”

“Price is not important. The fact that it is a gift from Yoosung is important. No, I want to thank you not only for the hairpin, but for everything you have done for me so far.”

“… … Why are you setting the mood all of a sudden?”

“It’s not all of a sudden. Rather, it was too late. In the meantime, I had taken it for granted that I was getting help from Yoosung, but that wasn’t the case.”

He saved him from a monster, made him know who he was, defeated a mad witch who was targeting his body, and helped him to come back to life.

It was a great grace that could not be repaid many times.

It was to the point of bewilderment why I had only now realized this.

“I am also a person with a sense of shame. Please do anything. It may not be enough to repay the kindness I have received, but I want to be of some help.”

“… … .”

Yuseong didn’t say anything.

Not because I was impressed.

Rather, it was quite the opposite.

‘Isn’t that obvious?’

Would he have helped without asking for anything in return?

Yuseong, who had been thinking of using Aris as a part for a decisive battle weapon using dragon hearts for a long time, was taken aback by Aris’ words that seemed to have no intention of doing as he was told.

Yooseong, who was making a confused expression, came to his senses belatedly when Aris stared at him, cleared his throat, and opened his mouth.

“Well, I didn’t really ask for anything in return, but if you help me, I’ll be grateful. I wish you well in the future.”

“Yes!”

Yooseong, who smiled awkwardly at Aris, who was wearing a spotless, pure smile, turned his eyes to the items displayed on the stall.

Even if people’s eyes were burdensome, I thought of moving to another place quickly.

‘Evaluating each one takes time, so use the demonic eye of truth… … .’

It’s not as accurate as emotions, but if you use the Mystic Eye of Truth, you can figure out the quality and quantity of energy that an object has and roughly estimate its grade.

“Oops!”

“Yoosung?”

“Whoa, eyes… … .”

“Snow? What are your eyes?”

Embarrassed Aris came to the side and helped me, but Meteor was so powerfully shocked that it was difficult to keep his posture.

It was because the moment I used the Demonic Eye of Truth, a light so intense that I was blinded flashed.

If you look directly at the sun, will it feel like this?

Yuseong, who was holding his eyes and letting out a faint moan, soon realized what had happened.

‘Spiritual power.’

The demonic eye of truth uses spiritual power as its driving force.

However, since that spiritual power jumped dozens of times in an instant, there was no way that the demonic eye of the truth related to it would be fine.

“… … You look so good.”

Yuseong opened his eyes and mumbled dejectedly as he looked at the brilliantly shining world.
