Chapter 405 – KaaaaaH!!!

Next day.

"Kaaaaa!!"

N-chan! Ceridwen! Isabella!!

When I came to my senses again, I was thrown out of the inn.

"Sorry"

When I heard the apology with that sad expression, it seemed like there was some possibility.

I didn't think he was apologizing in advance because he would push me away countless times in the future.

There is no such thing as an iron wall.

"What is that guy?"

"I told you. He has multiple lives. That's him."

"Ah. You're hitting on Justia? Your face is smooth, but how could you possibly have lost your mind?"

After…

If we regard him as a great person, he will become a tourist attraction in the virtual world.

I didn't want to become famous for dumping a girl, so I was trying to come up with another way.

"Are you okay?"

I saw Justia squatting in front of me.

Wow. Panties white.

"I told you not to approach me like that."

"…"

What?

The magical waves that had been strongly rejecting me suddenly calmed down.

Justia stands up, holding her outstretched hand.

Are you planning to attack me after letting me off guard?

She was a little wary, and Justia spoke in reflection.

"You've done this much, but seeing that you don't give up, you really are a human being."

"That's right…"

Whether it's your daughter or your mother, you're putting people through a hard time!

"You can't believe that I have a daughter. I can't believe that I did something complicated like getting married."

"…"

Is it because she wore a youth tiara during her maiden days?

Her consciousness seems to have returned to before she met her husband.

She is a mother who has never been in a relationship with a man. The setting is really unique.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Sanghyuk Kim."

"Justia. Feel free to say it. I think we're similar in age.

Is it.

In this world, it probably doesn't matter.

After confirming that I was a "human," Justia's attitude was a bit different from before.

"Shall we take a short walk?"

Nod.

"Are you alone?"

"I have company, but now I'm alone."

"Hmm."

Because she's coming to get girls, and she can't come with Evangeline.

I don't know if she understood what was meant, but Justia said it as she walked down the street.

"Do you know? Not all the people passing by are actually alive."

"Yes."

"But when they are attacked, they tremble in fear and cry out. Sometimes it feels like their reactions are almost 100% the same."

"…"

Is it really so?

The reactions of NPCs in this city felt a bit realistic, but if you look carefully, you will see a difference.

"Didn't you come from outside the city when you first started?"

"I come from a village a little far away."

"Would you believe it if the reaction of the NPC in that village was the same as the reaction of the NPC here?"

"…Uh?"

Same? The reaction of that machine-like NPC?

"The world we see is actually a world that has been filtered through the brain. Do you know that?"

"I think I've heard of it."

"In dreams, there are times when you don't notice, no matter how strange things happen. It's like that. If you stay here for a long time, your brain adjusts the margin of error, and you gradually become less able to notice the differences from the real world."

Does this mean that the line between reality and virtuality is blurring?

"So. I still doubt you about 50%."

"…"

I understood.

If you do anything suspicious, a knife will be put in your throat again.

"But why did you decide to trust me 50%? Because you risked your life."

"There were a lot of guys who risked their lives. I was even stalked in the last world."

Huh?

So, what was the factor that made me think of myself as a person in the real world?

Is it because you're so handsome?

"I can't believe you have a daughter."

Justia chuckled.

"What kind of weirdo would use a comment like that when seducing a girl?"

"…"

Um, haha.

It seems so random.

I think Quintia helped me in some way.

"But it's true."

"I don't know. What kind of marriage am I in? I don't believe it."

…

Well, even before I was possessed, If a stranger suddenly comes to you and tells you that you are already married and have several children,

I don't think I could understand it because the disconnect from reality was so great.

After being possessed... Hmm.

Honestly, as time goes by,

If someone tells you that you are this child's father, you may come to a situation where you have no choice but to accept it.

What should I do if I get married to someone else?

What if the number of heroines is increased so much that there are so many wives that their names and faces become indistinguishable?

I might need to get advice from a heroine who used to be a lawyer right now.

There is a receptionist heroine and a weathercaster heroine.

"So, if you're thinking of persuading me to become a hero, you'd better quit."

"Convince me to become a hero? Why?"

Justia's steps stopped.

I look back with a slightly surprised face.

"Did you come without knowing anything?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

When I said I didn't know, Justia seemed a little relieved.

"This virtual world is waiting for a protagonist to bring it to completion."

"I think that's you."

"Yes. But I have never once finished it. It's a long time ago. I don't even know when it started, but I made a promise to myself."

…

Over the years, he even forgot that he had a daughter.

The restraints placed on oneself to not follow the queen's rules seem quite heavy.

The wave of her magic that surrounded her now seemed to me like an enormous, self-imposed chain of restraint.

'It won't be easy.'

Even me, who is by my side right now.

You probably believe that half of it is human, but at the same time, you suspect that half of it is not human.

At this level, it is considered acceptable to not go into psychosis and only lose part of the memory.

"Am I doing well? That kind of thinking is meaningless. Maybe I'm just an NPC keeping an old oath."

So long that I even forgot the reason for my oath...

…

'Queen Tia, how heartbroken she must be. If she knew her mom was doing this,

At least.

If I defeat Geomseong, her mother and daughter can meet with a smile.

I cannot agree with the Queen's methods. As the King of Onahole, I would like to promote the Onahole subjugation of the Sword Saint.

"It's like someone who was shipwrecked on a deserted island wrote down a rescue signal, but so much time has passed... They even forgot why they decided to do so."

"Yeah, that's it."

"But isn't it good that I came?"

Justia looked at me with her eyes wide open.

"Because someone saw the distress signal and came. Your oath was not wrong."

"Is it…"

Although it is only for a moment,

It seemed like she had returned to the Sword Saint.

"I was fighting well."

…

"I'll post the information I have. It's up to you, Justia, whether you believe it or not."

Aside from having a daughter,

I told him about what was happening outside.

Queen of the Universe. The master of the galaxy's domain. She is invading Korea, and she is trying to achieve her evil purposes by subjugating you, the Sword Saint.

"It's like the devil in this world."

"To sum it up, yes. He's like a demon lord who dreams of world dominance."

In fact, our world has so many characters that it is difficult to classify them into countless categories, such as Demon King Mark 2, Demon King Mark 3, and Demon King Mark 4.

There are a huge number of external gods, and above them there is a Goddess of Yagame who shines a vulgar plump star.

Although it is a world that contains a truly terrible reality for those who transcend and realize the truth,.

"… You know, why do you think I'm keeping the old oath?"

『Old Oath』

I won't be the main character of any story.

Justia's oath to resist by making this world unfinished.

"I don't know... Is it because you're too lazy to fight?"

"There is that, but anyway, when the world comes to an end, demons from all over the continent will flock to me. Until then, I have no way to tell whether this world is real or fake."

"…"

"A friend I've been with until yesterday, a colleague I've opened up to, suddenly comes after me with bloodshot eyes and a knife."

…

In fact, it was all the queen's game.

You mean like that?

That's so shit. Just by listening...

"If I sum up what I heard from you, the world I protected is in danger. It's the same here as well."

"…I see."

"Which one is real?"

Justia opened her eyes wide and looked at the sky.

"Which world is a simulation? Have you ever thought about that?"

"…"

For me, who is aware that I am in a very well-made Onaaka,

That one word didn't seem like a topic that was just thrown around.

This world was also created by the Queen of the Universe.

If the world I was in was also created by En-chan,.

What is real, and what is fake?

"Of course, it would be foolish to sit in a fake world controlled by a crazy god, but if there is no such thing as a real world no matter where you go, the only environment created by someone controlled by a transcendent will is

If it exists,

"…"

"Can you bear it knowing that?"

I couldn't answer.

Did you feel like you needed to organize your thoughts? It wasn't that my mind was complicated, but I just couldn't put into words what I was feeling right now.

"I'm sorry. I only said what I wanted to say."

"No… There must have been a lot of talk. If you're alone in a place like this,

"It's as if I know. What it feels like to be controlled by God."

…

I couldn't help but grin.

If the relationship between N-chan and me wasn't as smooth as it is now,

Was I dying like her?

"Kim Sanghyuk, what do you want me to do?"

"Let's leave right now. Split the space. If you're a swordsman, you can do that, right?"

"…"

Justia grabs the handle as if responding to my words.

But she didn't go any further than that.

She is only guided by her old oath and has no motivation to destroy the world.

She is not confident that "this is right."

There was only darkness before her eyes.

She looked back at me with a look in her eyes.

Haven't I changed?

All I could see was a look of suspicion checking me.

This is serious. I won't be able to wake up unless I'm prescribed a lethal drug.

"I'm sorry. Because I'm a pathetic woman."

"What are you going to do if you don't sleep? Are you going to stay in the inn and drink carbonated water?"

"Let's go on a mission together."

Huh?

What does this mean again?

Justia grabbed my clothes.

Wow.

"Because you're saying things like cutting out space and moving out."

"Because you do it?"

"On the other hand, I feel like I want to proceed with the story."

…

It's like crossing a stone bridge by tapping on it.

Have you decided to check the truth of this world?

That's like saying you're going to drink poison little by little.

"If you make friends and colleagues in this world, they may become shackles, and you may lose your old sword skills... Even though you think so, Do you still want to progress in the story?"

"…But."

In Justia's eyes,

How will my existence be seen? It occurred to me that I didn't really know that.

Can I be her salvation?

"50% of the time, I believe you are a human being. No, let me correct you. Only about 40% of the time."

Even though he only does 4, he is the only real person.

because I think so.

There are a hundred people passing by on this main street other than me, but I am the only one who even remotely believes that she is a person.

The word 'quintia' is like a miracle created knowingly or unknowingly.

'400 is amazing.'

Justia said it as if she felt ashamed of her hand holding my clothes.

"Don't misunderstand. I don't trust anyone, even 100% of the time. Especially someone like you who openly says I'm a handsome male protagonist is suspicious to anyone."

"…"

Who would have thought that being handsome would be a disadvantage!?

That's right, he's the male protagonist of Onaaka.

Good job. Very…

From Justia's point of view, the male protagonist, who had been blatantly ignored as the main character, approached her and asked if she had a daughter.

She probably didn't think this was a well-decorated introduction.

It is correct to view it as one person's unexpected behavior.

'You'd better stop flirting. 'I only treat suspected diseases.'

It is a route change.

"If we're going on an adventure, we should form a party, right?"

"Party?"

"I told you I had a friend."
