Regression Is Too Much

67 – Regressors accept their fate (3)

Regressors inevitably lie often.

And the way to give persuasive power to that lie is simple.

“This aisle… Aren’t you suspicious?”

Just talking bullsh*t that looks like something.

And at the same time, to inject emotions. Repeating the tutorial, I think that one of my acting skills has improved.

“Until now, the aisles were all lit by torches. It was bright and looked good. But here… It’s dark for some reason.”

I already know the result.

It means that you already know that if you walk all the way through the dark passage, you will come to a stone gate, followed by a mirror labyrinth.

“I think this is a clue that it will be an ordeal related to ‘vision’. It suggests not to believe what you see in front of you.”

In other words, all you have to do is attach the process to the result. It is not difficult to invent a plausible story.

“So, if there is an end to this aisle… Why don’t we all wear eye patches and proceed? It’s probably a gimmick related to ‘sight’, and I think it can be overcome by covering the eyes.”

Of course, it only looks plausible on the surface, but the basis is ridiculously weak. It was simply a suggestion, ‘There are no torches from here, so shall we wear blindfolds?’.

“… I don’t understand.”

Of course, I can’t understand it. It’s literally bullsh*t.

It is impossible to eat it raw with the ‘Awe’ attribute like in the tutorial. In my experience, the stronger the character, the less likely it is to work. Choi Ji-won has never activated the awe attribute.

In other words, I have to make people believe that things that are absurd when considered with the utmost common sense are possible.

However, the way to give persuasion to bullsh*t is simple.

Kkaduk.

It’s enough if the bullsh*t is right every time.

“… Hmm. I think there will be a weapon after this. Looking at the text here… “

“Around this time, goblins will come out. The shape of the cave is artificial.”

“Looking at the shape of the joint, it seems that there is a monster. Maybe… It looks like a wolf. Because of the symbolism of the wolf in primitive civilization.”

Number 3.

I yelled bullsh*t three times, and all of them were correct.

“Ohh… “

“As expected… “

As a result, my meaningless bullsh*t has gained authority. Just because it’s been hit multiple times.

“So, if there is an end to this aisle… Why don’t we all wear eye patches and proceed? It’s probably a gimmick related to ‘sight’, and I think it can be overcome by covering the eyes.”

As a result, my ‘sight trial theory’ also gained persuasive power.

“… But wouldn’t it be dangerous to wear an eyepatch?”

“Everyone has feelings, right? If I do, I just take it off. Now, I will rip off my leather armor and make an eyepatch.”

“… “

I can’t believe it, but since I’ve been hit so far, Dok Soo-hee wears an eyepatch with an expression that I’ll believe it one more time.

“Oh, brother Chan? For Kyungjun-nim, live…. In case of an emergency. You know?”

“… “

So after Ahn Gyeong-jun’s strength training was completed, and each person wore an eyepatch.

“Then put your palms up! You can’t take off your blindfold until I tell you!”

Kururureureung.

Each person put their palms on top of the stone gate and opened the closed door.

“… “

I’m sure that everything I can do is ready.

Seruk.

I took off my blindfold.

I intentionally tied the leather that covered my eyes loosely. I said that I shouldn’t look ahead, but I don’t know what will happen if I don’t really look.

“… I heard something.”

“… “

However, the native possessed by Kyung-jun An’s body began to perk up his ears sensitively, as if he could even hear the sound of the leather. Beastly child.

“… Come on in now. You have to hold me tight by the shoulders.”

We held our shoulders like students playing train and slowly headed into the mirror labyrinth.

“… Hot and cold It’s like a mirror that disturbs the warrior’s soul… “

Ahn Kyung-jun, who doesn’t hold my shoulder when he tells me to hold it, and touches the mirror standing next to him with one hand..

“No, no, it can’t be. Why does a mirror suddenly appear in an underground cave? Maybe obsidian or something?”

“It’s strange… “

I desperately tried to explain, but he continued to stroke the mirror without raising his doubts.

“… “

Judging from Ahn Gyeong-jun who touched the mirror, he seems fine, so I don’t think it’s the kind of trap that triggers when he touches the mirror.

“Whoa… “

Still, I prevented Gyungjun Ahn from having a seizure. There was no problem in clearing this maze right away.

Now, there are two major variables to consider.

First. This mirror maze’s own gimmick.

And second… Ahn Gyeong-jun himself.

However, you can think about the latter later. First of all, it’s not too late to think about clearing it from beauty.

“Then, let’s go.”

So, our group plunged into the mirror labyrinth with leather straps wrapped around their eyes.

**

How long did you walk through the mirror maze?

Hui Yiing.

A dreary wind blows.

I was steadily walking through the maze using the left hand method.

“… “

Walking through a maze of mirrors where my image is constantly reflected is not an ordinary ordeal. I don’t even know which is the passage and which is the wall, and it feels like my brain is jumbled together as one movement is repeated dozens of times.

“… Gulp.”

Could it be because the brain is tired?

Just… It was as if my image in the mirror had moved.

It looked like it was raising the corners of its mouth and putting on a creepy smile.

But when you think about it with common sense, there’s no way the mirror can move.

Must be an illusion?

“… “

I learned through numerous horror movies that if I pass it over as ‘it must be an illusion’, I will die.

Besides, this maze is part of the tower. It is a space where nothing is strange no matter what happens. Raising the vigilance rather than being vigilant is the right decision.

While walking with my senses sharpened like that.

“Junho.”

“… Why? Suhee?”

Dok Soo-hee suddenly spoke. I told you not to talk to me inside the maze. It looks like you have some very urgent business.

“Yes? Me?”

However, Dok Soo-hee tilted her head as if she didn’t know why after talking to her.

“… Didn’t you just call my name?”

“No? Me?”

“… “

Yes. It comes out like this.

Let’s see where and how long they create an atmosphere of fear. If it comes out so blatantly, I have my own thoughts.

That moment when I gritted my teeth and widened my eyes.

“… “

“… “

Just now, my eyes met myself in the mirror.

He stared at me with empty eyes somewhere.

CeeeIG.

He smiled brightly. Bright enough to give goosebumps to the viewer.

Around the time the corner of the smiling guy’s mouth rose and twisted grotesquely enough to touch his ear.

“hahahaha!!!”

From noble mtl dot com

He ran right at me!

“I knew it.”

But I was already mentally prepared. When it was called a mirror maze, it was because there were only a handful of possible gimmicks.

There are often gimmicks in which the person who touches the mirror is drawn into the mirror world, and the monster in the mirror world where the left and right are reversed pretends to be that person.

Same goes for this case. It means that the moment my eyes met my reflection in the mirror, I had already expected him to attack.

“Suck!”

Awesome!

I naturally dodged the sharp claws he wielded with a paper difference, and conversely, I took an opening and cut his throat.

“It’s easy.”

This kind of crappy horror atmosphere can’t shake the mind of a steel-like regressor. If the Archangel was going to embarrass me, he would have to prepare a more threatening trap.

The moment he brushed off the blood on his sword with such a confident expression on his face.

“… ?”

On the mirror wall next to me, I saw something I should never have seen.

“… Mirror.”

“… “

It means that Ahn Gyeong-jun’s eyeballs were visible.

“Mirrors, so many… “

Ahn Gyeong-jun, who is bleeding from the middle of his forehead, is standing there with a distorted face like a bloody slaughter.

“… “

It looks like the leather eyepatch was cut off by the monster’s sword attack.

Should I have blocked it instead of avoiding it? It’s a mistake.

“f*ck… “

I let out a sigh and gently closed my eyes.

“… Are you trying to seduce me again without getting tired!!!”

Wow!

[Damaged.]

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

***

Chaeeng!!!

“Kek!”

This time I cut off the mirror monster’s claws and then decapitated it.

I instinctively refrained from blocking an attack because of my anti-resilience, but in this situation, I think I need to know how to consciously block an attack.

“What are you talking about?”

“I smell blood… “

“No big deal. Keep going.”

“I stepped on something soft… “

The result of wandering over the corpse of the mirror monster for another 30 minutes.

“Do you think I can take off the blindfold now?”

Finally, the end of the mirror maze was in sight.

**

“… “

Leaving behind Ahn Gyeong-jun, who looks at me with meaningful eyes, and Kang-chan and Dok Soo-hee, who look at me with eyes wondering if he ate something wrong.

Objectively, the difficulty of the mirror maze was very easy.

Although there is a monster lurking around, it’s not a very strong one…

Except for the fact that Gyungjun Ahn has seizures, the level of difficulty is incomparably easier than that of the monster wolf.

“… “

Yes, except for the fact that Kyung-Jun Ahn has seizures.

A doubt was sprouting in my head.

Could it be that Gyungjun Ahn’s seizure was also included in the level of difficulty? Doubt.

Then… Each room may have been custom built. I had such an ominous thought.

“Uh, can you see something?”

“… “

My foreboding reached its peak when I reached the next room.

A long aisle that stretches straight ahead.

There was no problem with the view because of the tightly packed torches, but it bothers me that it is empty.

Will the monster come out again? No, it’s too narrow for a monster to jump out.

Speaking of a passage that leads in a straight line like this…

“… Would you like to step back?”

I pushed the others back and took a cautious step.

Clap.

At the same time as I heard the sound of metal meshing.

WE ARE A LOVE!

Soon after, 5 arrows were shot at me with precision!

“Sir!”

I had roughly anticipated it, so I was able to jump backwards and barely avoid the rain of arrows.

“… “

It felt like my foreboding had become a reality, so a drop of cold sweat flowed down without my knowledge.

This room must be a trap room. From the ‘click’ sound I just heard, to the rain of arrows pouring here and there.

In creative works, the main characters usually endure countless memorizations by avoiding vital points, and barely survive and take care of themselves with potions…

If I brush even once right now, I will return.

Since entering the 3rd floor, I faced the worst counter.

“… Whoops.”

I couldn’t help but laugh.

It is true that it is the worst counter. If you want to overcome this place normally, you know that you have to hit it hundreds or thousands of times to break it.

But it’s okay.

“… Brother Chan.”

“Why is that?”

“Can you break this front?”

Now I also have a cheat key.
