Chapter 291
Usually, the desperate side becomes Eul.
like this moment.
“One more drink.”
“Oh, there you are.”
“Great.”
I refilled another glass of cider and drank it.
The old man seems to want to finish talking about this, but…….
he’s not even going to do it.
“Can I have a Coke?”
“Heh, he seems to miss his hometown a lot.”
“Geuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
yes this is it
My whole body trembles at the refreshing feeling of carbonic acid, which I haven’t seen in a long time.
However, I decided to stop drinking.
‘Seeing that you know what cider and cola are, it seems that they really came to our world, but then how the hell did they come over? It wouldn’t have opened the ‘door of the abyss’…….’
Many questions ran through my head.
‘If I can figure out a way, can I go home without climbing the floor?’
Of course, it was just a thought I had once, but I wasn’t so desperate. To be honest, my biggest concern these days is whether I have to go back.
I have already adapted well here.
It must have been a little uncomfortable world, but it was a good enough place to live.
Yes, even without carbonation.
“Hehe, seeing you so happy makes me feel better too. Where would you like another drink?”
“No, now.”
“okay?”
Auril Gavis tilted her head and then asked me the same question as before.
But…
“It must have been my turn this time?”
When I gave him a face mask, he coughed.
“I’m sorry. I was in a hurry. As you said, it’s your turn this time, ask me anything.”
I said yes, and answered roughly everything.
I said emphatically.
“The question ends here.”
“huh?”
yes what is yes
to be shameless
“Does it make sense to say more? I can’t tell if what you’re saying is true or not.”
When I pointed out the meanness of running the lie detector behind me, the old man said as if he was unfair.
“But I’ve never told a lie!”
yeah that’s what it was
Because I didn’t tell you all the important things anyway.
Rather, thanks to such actions, trust is built that he did not lie.
But…
“Isn’t it true that it’s unfair?”
When this old man is uncomfortable with a topic, he just needs to turn around, but I can’t even keep silent.
“……What can I do?”
um well
Pretending to be worried, I waited and opened my mouth at the right time.
“If I ask you ten questions, why don’t you do one?”
“what……?”
The old man spat out a sound as if it were absurd.
Cheop Yes, was this too severe?
I hurriedly brought out the excuses I had prepared.
“In the first place, I am taking a great risk by talking to you.”
“risk?”
“I don’t know how the future will change because of this.”
A line that simultaneously hints at the risk factors I take and how valuable the information 20 years into the future is.
But…
“What? Ha ha ha ha!”
Auril Gavis burst out laughing as if he had heard a genuinely funny story.
It was so exciting that I felt bad for everyone.
Because I wasn’t saying anything funny.
“Oh, I’m sorry for laughing so suddenly.”
As the old man stared at him whether he laughed or not, he coughed and managed his expression.
And…
“It’s just because I didn’t think of it. Of course, it’s natural for you to think so…”
Auril Gavis continued.
“You can’t change anything with the fragments of records.”
It was the reason he laughed at me.
***
A temporary brain freeze came.
But when I tried to find my composure and thought about it again, I couldn’t understand it.
So I just asked outright.
“What do you mean you can’t change?”
“Ah, is that a ‘question’?”
Uh…….
“…….”
Not only can I stop talking, but I can’t even breathe.
That’s when a sip of cider became desperate again.
“Heh heh, that’s a joke.”
Auril Gavis smiled happily and answered my question.
“It’s difficult to explain the concept of time and cause and effect to you right now, so just know this.”
“…….”
“Whether the chicken or the egg came first. The sequence is not important. The universe only has one history.”
I don’t know much about the history of the universe.
I didn’t know the principle, but I understood what he was saying.
So now this old man says…
“You mean the future won’t change no matter what I do here?”
“That’s right. The time zone observed even once does not change.”
“easily.”
“No matter what you think or do here. Whatever conversation we have here and now, it means that it has already happened in the past.”
Understanding and understanding were separate stories.
I know what theory you’re talking about…
but what about Dwalkie?
What about the letters you left behind in the Holy Land?
In the end, no matter what I do, nothing changes?
‘No way.’
I decided to listen carefully to the old man’s words, but not trust him too much. This old man must not have mastered everything.
Didn’t you know that I was the original clear?
“I don’t believe it.”
“…….”
“Well, you’ll know what it means to be called by the times.”
Soon Auril Gavis changed the subject and returned to the original story.
“So, speaking of fairness… Ten is too nonsensical. How about one out of three?”
Targeting when people are out of their mind.
I decided to think about the history of the universe later, and I focused on the negotiations.
“Three is too few. Maybe one out of five.”
“…You don’t have a conscience too much? Even if the information from 20 years later is important, I won’t be pushed behind by the things I know.”
Auril Gavis frowned as if his pride was hurt.
It was not something I couldn’t understand.
If you ask 100 players from Earth, all 100 will be interested in the information that ‘Auril Gavis’ knows and think it is more valuable.
But…
“If you really think so, shouldn’t you just not do it?”
The value of water is different depending on the environment.
A handful of water is more precious to a thirsty person than a hundred pounds of gold.
“One out of five questions. If you don’t like it, don’t.”
As if I had waited, I came up with a final proposal.
That was the moment.
“These damn things…”
The old man’s expression hardened coldly.
So I was very scared that I had just crossed the line…
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it to you. It’s just that the guys I saw earlier broke the rules again.”
Fortunately, the cause of the true color was not me.
On the contrary, the old man continued talking with a look of concern that I might have misunderstood.
“It looks like I’ll have to leave today. How about sharing this again next month? I’ll think about the issue of fairness in the meantime.”
It was a sudden comment, but I didn’t show any regret. The moment you show that kind of thing here, the terms of the negotiations that were about to be concluded will go down.
“good night.”
I nodded as if there was nothing urgent, and he waved his hand in the air.
And…
“……I’m back.”
When I came to my senses, I was lying on the bed at the inn.
***
[00:00].
I only checked the midnight time on the 15th, and I lay down again and went to sleep.
Of course, sleep did not come easily.
Numerous thoughts, worries and anxieties passed by without being organized in my head.
But the day was bright nonetheless.
“……Nothing has changed.”
As soon as morning came, I got dressed and headed to the library.
That the future won’t change even after this?
That no matter what you do, it will be meaningless because it happened in the past?
So what do you mean?
That can’t be a reason to stay still.
It’s possible that the old man, Auril Gavis, got something wrong.
If you do nothing, the chances are zero.
‘I’m not there today.’
I stopped by the library with that in mind, but Raven was nowhere to be seen.
Where the hell has this little boy gone?
Has anyone else been beaten with electricity while I’m gone and got scolded?
‘……After all, he didn’t come.’
I waited until Raven’s usual time to come home, but Raven didn’t show up.
It was the same the next day too.
‘……Worried about writing.’
I continued to visit the library even though I regretted not knowing where my home was before. It wasn’t until the next day that Raven appeared after spending another day like that.
“Why haven’t you been here?”
“Something happened. What about you?”
“just.”
Raven sat down and began to read the book, speaking in a smirking tone.
But what else is this?
“Why do you keep turning your head?”
“I didn’t turn.”
No, it’s still turning.
My hair is strangely messy.
“Come here.”
“no.”
“Then I go.”
I strode over and brushed Raven’s bangs to the side.
And barely endured the seal was engraved on his head.
‘Yeah, so you said you were hiding this.’
There were large bruises around Raven’s eyes.
“Who are you?”
“……It doesn’t matter.”
Hey, how do you make this open?
As I sighed while thinking about that, Raven looked at me and muttered a soothing voice.
“……Never mind. I came home late and my mom found out I went to the library.”
As soon as I heard that, my appetite was bitter.
Not to mention the fact that this child was beaten by her mother.
‘He came home late……’
He was a kid who guarded his way home like a knife.
But why did I come home late?
“Are you late waiting for me?”
“…….”
Raven was silent at my words, and that silence was the most certain answer.
Well, I belatedly said ‘no’, but…
it’s already too late man.
“It’s okay to talk about me, so tell me about the labyrinth. I stopped doing it then.”
“……Where were you talking?”
“Doppelganger forest. I even said that doppelgangers are good at pretending to be dead. But this isn’t very fun, so do something else.”
First of all, as Raven wanted, he pretended to be okay and talked about the labyrinth, and as time went on, it was time for Raven to go home.
“Then let’s go.”
“okay.”
“Tomorrow too… Will you come?”
“If nothing happens.”
After hearing my answer, Raven hurriedly left the library.
Therefore, I went outside.
And…
‘Shall I follow you?’
I started to follow Raven.
I didn’t want to get involved in other people’s family affairs, but…
‘He didn’t do anything to deserve it.’
Cancer This is a bit over the line.
