Two days had passed since I started staying at Han Sooyoung's headquarters.
In the meantime, I had to concentrate on a few things. One was to reveal exactly what Han Sooyoung meant by 'the death of Yoo Jonghyuk.' The second was to find out what Han Sooyoung ultimately wanted to achieve through it.
Either way, finding out wasn't easy. This wasn't the only problem.
[It is really destroyed? Our Eden?]
I looked at Gabriel who was exuding a ferocious spirit.
“That's right. Didn't you hear anything about it from the third round Metatron?”
[…The scribe knows about the destruction of Eden?]
I nodded. “If you go back, ask him yourself. Of course, that's if you can go back safely.”
The stems of Gabriel and Jophiel started to shake. I thought they were angry with me but they seemed to be talking to each other. I pulled out the Uriel doll. She was caught by the Confinement of Good and Evil and couldn't use her strength for the next five days.
「 The Fourth Wall is looking at you. 」
Maybe I could borrow the power of the Fourth Wall to give her memories of the third round. However, the idea that Uriel would be moved by my memories was just a fantasy. Maybe after seeing the memories, Uriel would say:「 ■■, so what? 」
The memories of the third round would sound like a novel to Uriel who had lived through the third round.
“Kim Dokjssi, are you going to hunt with us?”
I looked up and saw Lee Hyunsung standing there with steel gauntlets on. “Is it okay if I go with you?”
“Yes, well… there is no meaning in identifying a picked up bullet.”
I smiled at Lee Hyunsung's words. Whether it was the third round or the 1863rd round, the strange analogies were still there. I calculated how many times Lee Hyunsung must've be confined in the guardhouse so far.
[Your understanding of the character 'Lee Hyunsung' has increased.]
[The character 'Lee Hyunsung' shows a weak liking towards you.]
I recalled the first scenario and suddenly felt a bit distracted. I added a sentence to alleviate Lee Hyunsung's wariness. “Shouldn't you be more vigilant? I am Yoo Jonghyuk's companion.”
“Um… Captain didn't say anything and… as a matter of fact, I feel that Dokjssi isn't a bad person. I guess this is the intuition I gained after 94 scenarios.”
Throughout the novel, Lee Hyunsung's intuition was mostly off the mark. Whenever Lee Hyunsung said this, I used to think that Yoo Jonghyuk would be stabbed in the back.
“Hey, you came? Let's take a look at your skills.”
Those who went out to hunt together were Kim Namwoon and Lee Jihye. Lee Jihye was covered with a big grey hood and looked at me in a displeased manner.
“Come quickly. We're going to start.”
I followed the party members out of the headquarters. The purpose of this hunt was to clean up the unnamed things around the headquarters and collect the items. Of course, I knew the real reason why Han Sooyoung ordered this hunt.
-There are two ahead of you. One is a tentacled species and the other is a composite species.
Han Donghoon's message was heard and Lee Jihye pulled out her sword. She triggered Instant Kill to defeat all the tentacles and then Kim Namwoon burned the main body with his black flames.
I felt it when I read the original but the two of them were really well matched. There was a terrible scream as the monster turned to ashes and Kim Namwoon approached Lee Jihye.
“Nice attack.”
Kim Namwoon raised his right hand towards Lee Jihye with a cool face. Lee Jihye aimed her sword at Kim Namwoon with cold eyes. The sword pierced past Kim Namwoon's cheek and penetrated the tentacle that was wriggling around as the unnamed thing struggled with the flames.
