chapter 106
40. Song Xia and An Yumin’s Jealousy (3)
An Yu-min’s voice echoed in the room.
“If only you and me were left in the world. Junwoo, you too will look at me without looking elsewhere, right?”
An Yu-min was spitting out crazy words that made no sense.
Somehow, it seemed that An Yu-min could make that possible.
I had goosebumps all over my body.
as the same villain. The madness and obsessive eyes that An Yu-min was spewing out now were more terrifying than any madman.
At the same time, it was attractive as if to be possessed. It was an impression that I couldn’t even think of as usual.
But it wasn’t when I was selling my eyes either.
‘The event of entering the Mirror Hotel doesn’t happen often. You must enter the 25th floor.’
As much as I am accustomed to absolute composure.
It was quite dangerous for me to develop any feelings toward An Yu-min.
It was fortunate that all of An Yu-min’s attention was sold to Lee Jun-woo in that room.
I concentrated on trying to stay as calm as possible.
‘for a moment. Looking at it again, it’s quite dark.’
I saw another me sitting with her a moment ago.
Familiar, but different from what I am now.
It was me in the form of a golden sun.
There were no surprises. In An Yu-min’s unconscious mind, he will miss me in the Golden Sun days.
Me in those days when I only looked at her.
‘And to such an extent that it dominates An Yu-min’s unconscious…’
At the same time, it means that the memories of that time are very meaningful to An Yu-min.
At that moment, it seemed to me that Letyssain, his will to remain in the Mirror Hotel, knew why he had chosen me.
What if there is only one brake on An Yu-min, who has become a villain?
Because that existence is only me.
fluff-
An Yu-min opened the door of the guest room and left.
I cautiously followed her.
It was on the 20th floor a while ago.
A new elevator hall. An Yu-min moved by taking the elevator there.
‘The 24th floor.’
I checked the floor number and quickly ran down the hallway.
In the original work, an emergency staircase was also created when the elevator was activated.
‘Then the emergency door at the same time.’
As expected, I entered the emergency door and went up the stairs.
for that short period of time.
The 20th floor, I thought about the meaning of this section again.
A space to encounter the weaknesses of the cadets who entered.
Dealing with that weakness directly, the cadets grow even more when they leave the Hotel of Mirrors.
‘Then my weakness is…’
Although it is a space where An Yu-min is unconscious.
It means a lot to me that the person I met after opening the room was Ahn Yoo-min.
“An Yu-min… No, is An Yu-min, who became a villain, a weakness itself to me?”
At those words, the sentence inside the mask, the sentence written by Letyssain, shone again.
Again, positive meaning.
Realizing what that positivity conveyed, I felt like I understood Letisane’s thoughts to some extent.
‘An Yu-min is a dangerous existence even to me, an unknown person. Even so, the fact that Letyssein is deliberately trying to tell me…’
Of course, it will be because I am the person who can stop An Yu-min from becoming a villain.
It’s an absurd idea, though.
An Yu-min now felt like a dangerous villain who could destroy the world.
Arrived on the 24th floor.
It was not a guest room.
There was an open landscape in all directions.
And there was a terrible gale and heavy snow.
Frozen corpses were everywhere.
‘It’s ridiculously cold.’
Even me, an awakened person, was cold enough to make my bones ache.
So, if you are an ordinary person, you will freeze to death just by being brushed by this cold and snowy wind.
At the center of the snowstorm was An Yu-min.
Her brown hair swayed violently in the strong wind.
“Stop that witch!”
“If I can’t stop that villain… An Yu-min, Seoul will collapse!”
People who looked like hunters rushed at An Yu-min.
However, An Yu-min looked at the hunters with a smile without the slightest tension.
“Do you want to play with me? I’m sorry. If you hang out with other guys, Jun-woo might get angry.”
Saying that, he lightly swung his hunter sword.
Although he was a few tens of meters away from An Yu-min.
The hunters were all decapitated before even approaching.
Among them, a named hunter with a familiar face. There were also class A awakeners called heroes.
Even they could not use their hands against An Yu-min.
If this scene spread out on the 24th floor was real.
An Yu-min must be more dangerous than the transcendent monsters that appeared in the Dark Ages when Letyssain was active.
‘How could such a thing be possible?’
A level unattainable by ordinary cadets.
Enough to lightly organize even an A-class hunter.
It means that he has already gone beyond the 3rd awakening possible at the Master Hero level.
‘It’s not a human level.’
And I remembered Letisane’s tinnitus at that moment.
Demon’s Sorcerer.
Rumors were circulating that he went beyond being a normal wizard and signed a contract with the demon kings.
There were many rumors that his lineage was also non-human.
Although he is known to have come from an unknown nobleman from a region in Europe close to the World Tree.
No one knew exactly what it was.
However, I had guessed the identity to some extent through the original work.
A clue from the Hotel of Mirrors.
If you put that prior information together, Letisane is definitely related to its existence.
‘Primary blood.’
The existence of the beginning, which is said to have been the source of all sub-races.
Letisine must have had something to do with that blood.
And An Yu-min, who can be seen in front of her eyes, must have inherited the blood of Letissein in some way.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to explain the spectacle of the end that An Yu-min is creating.
But then another explosion was heard.
***
Papa Papa Papang-
At that time, another person nearby froze.
It exploded and became fragments of ice.
‘It’s so incredibly strong.’
As much as it was a dungeon, I was also affected by the cold.
His physical stats are only around 40. Just like before, her whole body shuddered to the point that she would freeze to death even if she didn’t get hit directly by An Yu-min’s skill.
[Demonization has been activated.]
You don’t have to look at anyone in this place.
He strengthened his body specs with special effects and demonization obtained through Xia Song.
My strength rose to 60 at once. Although it was somewhat cold. But at this rate, the whole body will be frostbitten.
[Passive skill firepower training (lv.4) is being applied.]
So, he quickly activated his authority.
‘The fire that burns from the mana heart’. His whole body became hot due to the authority of the flame.
I got away from An Yu-min as quickly as possible.
And as a result, the cold temporarily subsided a little.
My head started moving again.
‘It’s quite unpleasant.’
What about An Yu-min’s unconsciousness and reality?
I didn’t like it if her purpose was to restrain me.
And even the fact that an opponent stronger than me shakes the world like this.
‘I don’t know if it’s the other way around.’
Only then did I realize why An Yu-min was my weakness.
Villains are the most free beings.
If you have that power, you can do anything you want.
With that power, An Yu-min here was realizing the future she wanted the most.
A future in which I completely redeem people and Lee Jun-woo with only my own.
‘It’s an obsession to the point of leaving only her and me in the world…’
if it really does come true.
no one can take me away from her
That obsession goes beyond yandere to madness.
Naturally, I didn’t like that fact.
Because I didn’t want to be swayed by anyone else, An Yu-min.
‘I need strength to do that.’
Absolute strength is required to have freedom as a villain.
I felt like I now understood why Letisane was conveying that will to me.
‘I know that if it were me, I would stop An Yu-min.’
With Retisane, I found the perfect answer.
Whether An Yu-min destroys the world or not. The thing itself has nothing to do with me.
If it’s something to redeem me.
I have no intention of agreeing to anything.
‘I don’t know if I’m going to completely restrain An Yu-min.’
That way, the future in front of you won’t unfold.
primitive hemorrhage. I must completely restrain An Yu-min, who has that dangerous primordial power.
I murmured with a smile as if I were talking to Letyssain.
“Letisine. I intend to control your daughter as I please. are you okay?”
The sentence inside the mask was silent.
But soon the door opened in midair.
‘Is it a tacit permission?’
Even Letyssain, who wants to entrust her daughter to a villain like me.
As it is known, it didn’t seem normal.
When I went out through that door, it was an emergency door again.
There are more stairs going up.
It was the stairs leading to the 25th floor, which was the purpose of this quest.
‘I can strengthen the orb in this place.’
As I was used to, the crazy white mirror space spread out.
The first part of the lake number had been changed to 25.
A space where items can be specially strengthened using the goods they have collected.
If there is really a possibility of an uncontrollable and dangerous villain, as An Yu-min saw in the dungeon a moment ago.
I had to get stronger.
So, I was lucky to be on the 25th floor faster than anyone else.
‘no. Is it more inevitable than luck?’
Two beings who rule this mirror hotel.
An Yu-min’s unconsciousness and Letisane’s will to remain were calling me.
And when you open the door of one room and enter the fortified space.
I was surprised.
[You can strengthen the orb you have.]
[Transcendence enhancement is possible.]
[It is possible to create a hidden class ‘Orb of Letisane’.]
The name of an item written on a message that popped up in that space.
Orb of Letisane.
That must have been the legacy of Letissein that Song Yu-hwan was frantically searching for.
