“I shall see the end of this day!” In a world on the edge of collapse, who could defy despair? In the ruins of dreams and shadows of death, who was writing fate’s cruel script? I stepped into the world of my favorite novel, where reality and fiction blurred into a twisted nightmare. Collapsed cities, monstrous nightmares, and a sky shrouded in blood. Deception, betrayal, secrets, and survival… The pages turned endlessly, yet the answers to the world’s mysteries remained out of reach. This is the story of an average individual, whose life has been filled with nothing but misfortune and mysteries. † Discord: https://discord.com/invite/4YQDYXWGME
I turned back to the rest of the group, focusing on Soo Jinyoung and Moon Jiyeon.
First, I addressed Moon Jiyeon. "Have you read the contents of the journal?"
"Yes," she replied hesitantly. "I have a rough idea of what's written in there."
"Hey, give me the journal," Soo Jinyoung interjected.
I raised an eyebrow but handed it over. "Alright. Break a leg."
Soo Jinyoung took the journal silently, flipping through its pages with an unnerving calm as she began studying its contents. Her expression didn't change, no matter the horrors written inside.
It was a stark contrast to Yoo Rin's earlier reaction.
How could she be so calm?
How could she be so composed?
Then it hit me. Didn't she have the Mental Barrier skill?
I had a similar skill, but even then, I had been shaken. Was the difference in how our skills functioned?
Yes. It had to be that.
