Regression Is Too Much

64 – The Regressor Likes Cider (6)

“Okay, that’s it!”

After holding on to the wolf’s corpse for a long time, Poison Hee put the chopped wolf’s heart into her bosom.

“… Why are you taking that?”

“I want to use it as an enchantment material! I can simply give it the properties I want, but with materials like this, I can create even greater effects!”

“Really? That, then… Shall we start slowly now? ? I think I’ve had enough rest… “

“Wait a minute… I’ll wipe some blood!”

Leaving behind Dok Soo-hee, who smiled single after saying that he had obtained good ingredients.

“… “

My head was filled with doubts about Kang Chan.

Kang Chan. Even if you doubt it, it’s too suspicious.

In fact, looking at this episode alone, you might think that it is too much to doubt Kang Chan.

But let’s think about the last episode. Kang Chan didn’t leave when I didn’t inform him of the existence of the monster in advance.

Rather, they diligently rummaged through the cavities and showed themselves unaware of the presence of monsters.

But suddenly I said there was a monster in this episode, so it disappeared somewhere? And when all the battles are over, he sneaks back and shows the loot, saying, “I caught another monster.”

It doesn’t fit. If Kang-chan really sensed the monster’s existence, he should have left the same way last time. Or at least you should have noticed the presence of a wolf hiding in the ceiling.

“… Strange.”

In other words, it is very likely false that Kang Chan caught the monster. That red bead is probably the reward you got from the previous floor, not the one you got from killing the monster.

Then, what we need to think about again is why Kang Chan ran away.

There are two possibilities.

First. Kang Chan had an unavoidable situation where he couldn’t fight right now, and because of that, he had no choice but to leave.

Second. Kang Chan is actually a dog’s dick, and he’s bluffing right now.

And I thought the latter was much more likely.

Even though Kang Chan has shown overwhelming momentum so far, why do you doubt him? I am suspicious because a similar stereotype already exists.

Among the creative genres, there is a genre called ‘illusion’.

In fact, the main character is a worthless idiot, but people around him perceive him as a formidable force.

“Oh, it’s you, you’re the one!” It’s quite… ‘ And acknowledges the main character.

However, the main character repeats petit bourgeois concerns such as ‘what should I do now?’ While trembling in fear, and it is an illusion that gives fun that comes from the gap in perception.

Now, if you read the explanation above, think again.

If… What if Kang Chan’s ability itself, ‘the ability to breathe life’ was everything?

What if subduing the fairy was actually a result of coincidence overlapping?

However, what if the stock price has risen day by day thanks to people around you saying, ‘It’s definitely Kang Chan!’ And has maintained that reputation by giving life to those who doubt it?

Then it makes sense for Kang Chan to run away.

He was so frightened by the presence of the monster right in front of him that he ran away, and in a corner somewhere shuddered and said, ‘I’m scared…’ ’ He might have been crying.

Kang Chan. From the name, it seemed like he was f*cking strong. In fact, he was a ‘yakchan’.

“… “

I turned my head and glanced at Kang Chan, who was walking expressionlessly.

Of course, there is a possibility that I am wrong. Because this was just my guess that ‘it might be’.

Anyway, the first thing I meet when I return is Kang Chan. You should check it out then.

“Have you arrived?”

I walked aimlessly while organizing my thoughts about Kang Chan.

When we returned to the joint where the wolf was, the stone gate blocking the way was gone.

“Hmm… “

What followed was a dark passageway without a single torch. I removed one of the torches from the wall and pushed it into the darkness. I could see the path, but the atmosphere was very dark.

“… Should I go?”

I absolutely don’t want to go, but I can’t help it.

Since I entered this tower, there was nothing I could do but advance.

***

Kung.

“Evil… “

Gyung-Jun Ahn’s moans full of pain.

There was a way to worry about anyone, but the other three just walked silently.

That’s also true, because this wasn’t the first time Kyung-jun An had banged his head against a stone wall. It’s already happened 5 times.

“Write… “

The reason is simple. It is because Ahn Gyeong-jun, who is in a ‘strong body’ state, cannot see well because he has crushed his glasses.

What should I call Gyungjun Ahn, who has lost his glasses? Should I just call him ‘Jun’? He walked down the damp cave path, thinking nonsense.

We walked for about 10 minutes without saying anything.

“By the way, why did the strong soul break the glasses?”

What broke the silence was Dok Soo-hee’s question.

“That… My soul hates glass and mirrors.”

“… Is there any other reason you don’t like it?”

“They say they don’t like distorting human images… Even when I was strong before, I broke my glasses first.”

Gyung-jun Ahn talks while scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

“Can I ask you something?”

Thanks to Dok Soo-hee opening the door, I decided to ask something I was curious about.

“The soul? You can see Ahn Gyeong-jun with your own two eyes right now, right?”

“Yes. Can you see me?”

“What does it look like?”

“Um… “

Ahn Kyung-jun walks carefully and ponders.

“Dark skin… It wears something like an ornament made of feathers on its forehead. The top is off, and the lower half of the body is not implemented in the soul state, so I’m not sure. Oh, and he has a spear with a very fancy design on his back.”

“… “

Based on the description, if you imagine it, something aboriginal image of the jungle comes to mind. It’s like using a javelin, and it looks like you’re going to hunt elephants in Africa.

However, the natives of Africa do not have the ability to summon wooden spears from the air. I’ve also met wizards who use magic on the second floor, so it’s probably reasonable to assume they’re spirits from another world.

“It must be difficult.”

Unknowingly, I spit out my thoughts.

A weak Kyung-jun with a rough soul.

Originally, it is painful to hang around with a person of opposite polarity. How quickly a person is ruined if he meets the wrong senior in the army. Not to mention, Kyung-Jun Ahn has to stick with that soul even the moment he falls asleep… Feelings of pity for him bloomed.

“… It’s hard, but it’s okay.”

However, instead of bowing his head, Gyungjun Ahn smiled lightly.

“I don’t do anything myself, but… Just lending your body is helping, right? When attacking the tower.”

“… Yes?”

“Climbing this tower is no different from contributing to humanity as a result… I am satisfied.”

“… “

I didn’t answer and looked straight ahead.

You can tell when you hear them talk. This man is nice and good.

But that’s why we shouldn’t get closer.

Anyone can die while progressing through floors 3-5.

Watching a good, kind friend die over and over again will quickly cut my heart.

I walked a little faster to get away from Gyungjun Ahn.

“Now, since I also talked about my boring story… I’m curious about Dok Soo-hee’s story?”

“Uh, me?”

“Yes. From the outside, it looks like a student… How old are you by any chance?”

“Oh, I am in high school… “

Rumble.

Because the ground shook for a moment, the voice of Dok Soo-hee stopped talking.

“Ahead… “

At the end of the dark road that I had been walking on, relying on a single torch, a stone gate with a familiar shape was blocking the way.

“… “

Four palm-shaped grooves dug out without fail.

After exchanging glances, the four of us each put our hands on the groove.

Kurrr

Slowly, the stone gate moved with vibration.

“Hmm… “

The stone gate disappeared, and what was revealed was surprising.

“… Is it a mirror?”

Mirror. Mirror. Mirror.

It is a space full of mirrors.

The floor, the ceiling, and the length of the walls made of mirrors appeared before my eyes.

Is it because of my mood that I think of the mirror maze in the amusement park?

A dark space that depends on the light of torches. The shimmering flames and the figures of the four of us are distorted here and there, and the dreary sound of the wind echoes like the background music of a horror movie.

“Hmm… “

It will not be a simple mirror. It is a mirror maze located in 3-5. It would be more reasonable to think that there is some kind of trap or unusual gimmick.

If you touch a mirror, will you be kidnapped to another world? Or a doppelganger? An assassin that jumps out of a mirror?

While he was rolling his head and deducing the number of possible cases.

“Jun, Mr. Junho!”

Dok Soo-hee hurriedly tapped my shoulder.

“Why… “

Waking up from my thoughts, I turned my head and looked at Poison Hee.

“No… no… !”

Behind Dok Soo-hee, I could see Kyung-Jun Gyung holding his head and moaning in pain.

“There are too many mirrors… “

Ahn Gyeong-jun covered his head with a red-hot face, saliva dripping from his mouth.

“Ah.”

Gyungjun An said earlier.

The spiritual soul hates mirrors and glass.

From that moment on, it seemed like the world was going back in slow motion.

The three of us, including myself, hurriedly turned around and started to walk away from the mirror maze.

From noble mtl dot com

“… Without getting tired, are you trying to seduce me again!”

Ahn Gyung-Jun, whose eyes were completely turned, summoned the well-worn wooden spear.

Wow!

Gyungjun An’s spear flies at the speed of light and shatters the mirror.

Due to its terrifying muscle strength, shattered pieces of the mirror flew in all directions and embroidered the air.

“Aagh!”

I tried to run away as far as possible, but it was too late.

PABABAK!

Even if I twisted my body to avoid it, I couldn’t stop the tiny mirror fragments from getting stuck in the exposed skin.

[Damaged.]

[Return to the moment you first entered floors 3-5.]

Gradually, my vision began to blur.

***

Sadness. Unrest. Despair. Fear.

It sounds like sh*t.

I like cider.

I like cider more than anything else, as the main character coolly breaks the ordeal in front of him.

But what is this? Why do I have to suffer like this every time?

What? The spirit possessed by the body of the person who is going through 3-5 together broke the mirror maze because it hates mirrors, and I get hit by the fragments and return?

I get angry.

I can’t stand my anger.

“… Wake up bantling.”

Could it be because his eyes went back to anger?

“… Hey.”

“… ?”

“Let’s fight.”

I jumped at Kang Chan.
