There are two ways one can take control of the gap of the Other-world.
First, clear the Other-world, or, go to the deepest depths of the Other-world, defeat the boss, “clear” it, and destroy it.
Second, conquer the Other-world. In other words, interfere with the other-world by using psychic waves, become the boss of that other-world, and get that world and its Enemies down to its knees.
The second method required a much more powerful ability than plain clearing, and the potential for the new boss to become an Enemy themselves was greater.
High-risk methods like the Other-world conquer were known to only be possible by the Original clan.
In addition, an Other-world that dominated by someone was called the “Garden.”
[You, You’re the Original clan that dominated that Garden……!]
When Suhyuk Joo became a senior high schooler,
He had met Biryung Na a few times before.
A mysterious woman who throws meaningful words and disappears, Biryung Na.
It was in her Garden that Suhyuk learned her true identity.
[Hoho, You’re the young master of the Juo group that cleared my Garden, hello.]
[…… You stopped controlling that Other-world the moment I stepped in the Boss area and disappeared. I didn’t exactly clear your Garden.]
Boom-!
Immediately after the conversation, the sound of explosion rang the Garden.
Where Biryung had been standing, the ground caves in and Hyo-don Maeng appears.
[What the hell, Suhyuk! Se-eum died in this moth bitch’s Garden! Why are you acting all nice and having a conversation with her!]
He shouted, his eyes gone all red.
His fist was stuck in the ground.
Hyo-don, who corrected his posture again and glared at the butterfly spirit, was full of angry violence.
[He didn’t even get to enjoy half a year’s worth of school life……!]
The same year, January 1st.
Along with SuHyuk, Hyo-don went into the Dream auction and participated in the rescue Battle of Se-eum Sawol.
Although Se-eum was in a similar situation to his past in the fight club, Se-eum was far more miserable than he was, so he always felt sorry for Se-eum.
Se-eum, who was considered as taking a leave of absence after going missing, came back as a 1st-year junior, and Hyo-don, who was his senior in the dorms as well as in school, had cared a lot for him.
However, Se-eum died in one of the original clan’s Garden, the Garden of Biryung Na of the Butterfly clan.
[This moth bitch’s Gwanglim is fucked up, but if we tie it up with my Gwanglim and attack together, we can catch her!]
It was Da-in An who blocked Hyo-don from starting his Gwanglim.
[Stop. If we fight an Original clan now, someone else will die or get hurt. And we don’t have any clues. If we don’t get the information now, our school is going to be······.]
Da-in’s voice blurred.
Suhyuk Joo’s gang had encountered so many losses, but no one was accustomed to the pain.
Da-in was also one of those who watched Se-eum die and suffer because of it.
Hyo-don knew that, so he closed his mouth.
[Shit……]
As Hyo-don lost his will to fight, Biryung Na’s body, which was losing its form in the real world, came back to normal.
Biryung looked at Suhyuk’s group and smiled with an unreadable expression.
Even though she was attacked by Hyo-don a while ago, she did not intend to attack back.
[All that happened because the messenger kid was so nice. There was one being who thought that he could be ruined or corrupted by years of bullying, but he didn’t change.]
Suhyuk and gang noticed that she was referring to Se-eum and became agitated.
Suhyuk, who listened attentively to what she said, asked back, questioning her remarks that there was a “being that thought the child would be ruined or corrupted.”
[Is it not your will to target Se-eum? Are you working for someone else?]
[······.]
Biryung Na did not answer.
Suhyuk recalled the death of Se-eum and
the sight of Se-eum’s uncle, Semin Sawol’s lifeless body being controlled by a necromancer Enemy.
It was difficult to believe that the shape or the type of energy was the power of the Butterfly clan.
[……Because the young master of the Juo group rescued the messenger kid and hid him safely inside Eun-kwang High. Besides, the young master helped him awaken an annoying Gwanglim. That’s why someone was looking for an opportunity to get him outside the school and kill him.]
[You crazy moth ass! How dare you use Suhyuk as an excuse! Shut up!]
Hyo-don yelled, not hiding his frustration and anger.
The words of Biryung continued.
[Your friend’s skill and Gwanglim were annoying, but the one who wanted to kill the child must have been unhappy with the last dynasty of the country. The kings of the last dynasty cherished the heir of the messenger so that being wanted to kill the heir as disastrously as possible.]
The expressions of Suhyuk’s crew stiffened as they realized that Se-eum was not simply killed by an Original clan’s entertainment.
Biryung went on with her words.
[You said you had something to ask me? But you don’t have to. I think the cute girl in your school that’s the head of the newspaper club knows something.]
School friend, head of the newspaper club.
There was only one person.
It was clear that she was referring to Saeron Moon, who used to talk to Suhyuk and the gang in order to make news reports.
[It would be better to go quickly. It’s not a good thing to know a lot in this world.]
Da-in’s face turned pale as she tried to call Saeron Moon.
[I can’t get in touch with Saeron.]
Suhyuk turned his back to biryung without saying anything.
[Let’s go to Saeron……!]
Watching Suhyuk’s group disappear with their back unprotected and defenseless, Biryung Na waved her hand as if she were seeing them off.
This was the event with the longest conversation that 3rd-grade Suhyuk and Da-in had with Biryung.
‘At that time, the characters kept dying and I was confused, so I couldn’t see the situation as rationally as I do now.’
I watched all the playable characters dying horribly, and I had a mental breakdown.
Also, I had a lot to deal with, like army duty or getting a job.
Since it was not possible to invest all of my time in this world as it is now, my thoughts and reflections on the story were much shallower than now.
‘At that time, I thought Biryung Na was just a character who threw baits and explanations regarding the story. But come to think of it……’
This world was reality, and it was strange for someone to act like her in real life.
Biryung Na was on the villain’s side, but she told too much information.
‘She might just be trying to mess with them for fun.’
Biryung was the owner of the Garden, the stage where Se-eum was killed, so I can’t be sure that she is on the good side.
However, she did not spill any false information and cause confusion.
‘The shard bursting effect was created when Biryung Na used her ability to send a message. The message will also be included in the conversation log.’
In less than a second, it was a list of texts that quickly flowed over the wall from afar, so I could have missed something or get something confused.
If I check the conversation log of my menu, I will be able to check it for sure.
<View the log in your region.>
There were some records of the audience’s admiration and small talk in between songs.
As I moved the scroll, I saw some Korean consonants and vowels, and some Alphabets that seemed to be Biryung’s message.
The result of the letter combination was:
Unexpected. Reservation. You.
Items. Exhales. Dame.
‘What is this saying?’
The English word ‘exhale’ means breath out, smoke out, exhale.
‘Dame’ is a term used to refer to a woman who received an honours in England, and although it is rarely spoken in the United States, it is usually used to refer to a woman.
‘……Although Jae-in Kwon received damehood from the Queen of England, she did not receive a title of nobility. Jae-in Kwon is Korean, so she can’t get a title. I heard that Dame refers to women who got the highest or second-highest knight rank.’
The title of Dame could not be given to Jae-in, a Korean, unless she pledged allegiance to the Queen of England or something.
‘It’s just a list of words that don’t seem to have meaning, so why is it separated with periods?’
Se-eum’s bright voice interrupted my thoughts.
“I was surprised that Kwon Je-in was suddenly rushed off stage during a standing ovation, but I didn’t know she was coming here! She’s more stunning up close.”
When I was busy checking my logs, Jae-in disappeared with Jared.
“It was like dreaming……! I need to go to the next concert.”
“Yes. Next time, I want to come with all the kids class!”
“I’m going to practice ticketing from today!”
It is unknown when the fickle Jae-in Kwon will hold another concert, but Yuri looked very motivated.
Se-eum was wanted to do it with her, so the two of them were coming up with a plan to practice.
Booking concert tickets required talent, but my two playable characters had plenty. They’ll do anything once they put their hearts into it.
I can leave the next ticketing to them.
“ …… I want to practice too!”
Lenna couldn’t put down her handkerchief from the moment ‘for LENA’ started.
She had her head lowered even after the applause continued.
When the tears stopped, Lenna was somewhat ashamed of the fact that she cried in front of her classmates.
Yuri soothed her by saying she would’ve cried more if the song was named ‘for YURI’.
‘I should help wrap up and grab a bite with the kids or something.’
A message arrived as I was carrying luggage, along with the staff.
Ding Dong.
[Jiho Hwang] I’m going to see Jae-in Kwon, Moon rabbit, and Je-gun at Eunhui building.
[Jiho Hwang] Wanna come?
Golden Tiger was here as his thirties’ self, but, as alter avatars should be, they were always in sync.
The message seems to have been sent by the Jiho avatar somewhere.
‘Even if I use a mask, Jae-in will remember exactly my physical appearances, so I’ll blow my cover. But I can’t use my ‘trajectory of the player’ skill on things like this.’
I’m concerned about what they are going to talk about, but it’s not necessarily something I have to listen to and judge for myself.
It can also seem unnatural to leave this position and situation.
There was a lot of work to do, and couldn’t leave it all to the three of them.
[me] work to do. Let me know what they were talking about later.
I Sent a message to Jiho and went back to stage cleanup work again.
Some staff members of the eternal lake disappeared along with Kwon Jane and Jared Lee, but there were no difficulties in the work because the replacement members came.
After all the work done today.
We were invited by the staff to join them in their after party.
However, we were underage and they won’t be able to drink with us there, so we decided to leave.
“It’s not that late yet, so I want to hang out some more······.”
“Me too. If Yuri is okay, I want to chat some more.”
“I can walk home, so let’s hang a little more!”
“Me, too. So, shall we go to the lounge room?”
At Lenna and Yuri’s suggestion, we decided to have a simple after-party for ourselves.
Because Yuri didn’t live in the dormitory, we chose the outdoor lounge area on the first-grade walkway instead of the lounge room in the dorm building.
We picked out the most bright spots and pulled out sweets and drinks from the vending machine.
“Senior Jae-in and her huge gifts…… I’m glad I wasn’t there. It would be nice just to talk to her, though.”
Se-eum said with a face as if it was burdensome just by thinking about it.
Se-eum also heard about Yuri’s hairpin and Lenna’s violin card incident.
“Right, can I see that psychic-made violin?”
“I want to see it, too!”
“Yeah! Here.”
Lenna placed the card in the middle of the table.
I was concerned about what kind of item this violin was.
There was no way to get it in the game, the set-up only mentioned its existence, and there was no detailed explanation.
<View item information.>
[Item name] Psychic-made violin
[Format] instrument
[Rarity] SSR—
[Proficiency] 0%
[Effect] can be played
[Description]
An instrument that changes the quality of rareness and performance based on the experiences, expectations, ideas, goals, and beliefs of the performer.
Changes up to the maximum UR level.
‘This description is……’
I felt a strong sense of Déjà Vu when I read the explanation.
Among the numerous items, there was an item with a descriptive text that was very similar to this violin.
’It’s very similar to my ‘destiny of anonymity’ description!’
The power of destiny was triggered after Jiho’s interpretation of an old book found in the basement of the Central Library.
In the space that led to power of destiny, the item card given by the white shadow, “destiny of anonymity.”
The item card had a similar description to Lenna’s violin written on it.
