Chapter 288 – The Eternal Dreamer
“Hi.”
I greeted you as calmly as possible.
As she said hello, Yoon Chae-rin opened her eyes wide. And then smile brightly.
“Okay, hello.”
Greeted me
“Well.”
Yoon Chae-rin saw me. Complex emotions bloomed. Longing, joy. And awkward.
It was a clear expression even without appraisal through the cloth mask.
There was something strange about Yoon Chae-rin’s reaction. She was very difficult to deal with me. As if he couldn’t move for fear of being hated by me.
‘What.’
Yoon Chae-rin is not like this. In the beginning, she had the image of a tomboy, but in the latter half, she showed the image of a benevolent saint.
Whatever she was, she didn’t show a difficult reaction.
Come to think of it, Siwoo Lee hated this world. No matter how good I looked at it, I didn’t like this world.
‘Is it that effect?’
Siwoo Lee must have some reason to hate this world, and Siwoo Lee expressed it with hostility.
Is that
But what on earth should I do to make Yoon Chae-rin react like that?
“Shall I send it?”
Yoon Chae-rin pretended to be calm and she asked me.
“Where?”
“To where you were.”
“Where am I from?”
Real world.
But not a good place for me. The real world didn’t like me. My family is here, and my lover is here too.
When I had a lot of money, I pretended to worry even a little bit, but I have more money here.
Neither honor nor power. There is also power there.
I’m not greedy for power, but I’ve achieved most of what humans seek here.
I don’t have any merit to go back.
“Do you want me to go back?”
“… I want you to stay here.”
Yoon Chae-rin said with a sad expression.
“But you wouldn’t want to, would you? So you send it Seung-ha can’t admit that and keeps creating this world over and over again…”
“Yes?”
I looked at Yoon Chae-rin. There was no sign of her telling her lies.
And I know that the child in front of her is Yoon Chae-rin.
He looks at me, but he’s basically confident. It was as if he had a confident attitude that he had nothing to shy away from.
‘What on earth did you do to a kid like this to make him lose his confidence like this?’
Suddenly I was curious about it.
But it wasn’t important now.
“Is the Demon King dead?”
“Yes. He went through the ritual to summon me in exchange for his own life, but… I don’t want to destroy that world. To be honest, I’m kind of tired now.”
“How did the Demon King become so strong?”
“… I signed a contract with Seungha. When I return this world, if I give you an appropriate trial, I will help you escape from this world someday.”
Yoon Chae-rin said this in a puzzled tone.
“I don’t know what he was thinking, but Seung-ha himself canceled the contract in the middle.”
“Myself?”
“Yes. Well, a contract like this is structured so that the one who cancels it loses unilaterally, but that much loss is nothing to Seungha now.”
Yoon Chae-rin said that and held onto her empty stomach. And when I lowered it, the space was distorted and I could see the modern landscape.
“If you go here, you can go to the real world.”
“As is this body?”
“Yeah, it won’t work as usual, but… Since you defeated the demon lord in this world, I will do it with my authority.”
I hesitated for a moment.
Yoon Chae-rin’s attitude is too firm. She was acting as if she had no choice but this.
“I want to stay here.”
“Yes, you… What?”
Yoon Chae-rin opened her eyes round and looked at me.
“You want to stay here?”
“Yes. I want to stay here.”
Blankly – looked at me.
“No, is it Siwoo Lee? It is impossible for any foreigner to deceive me. Of course it’s not fantasy…”
Yoon Chae-rin is dumbfounded.
His face was full of confusion. She thought the figure was cute and tried to kiss him but stopped.
‘Because I’m not Yoon Chae-rin.’
She is different from the Yoon Chaerin I know in front of me. She is not the Yoon Chae-rin who has been whispering about her love for the past year.
“Then what will become of this world?”
“Uh? Since you’re staying, of course you should leave it as it is.”
“I’m glad.”
I sighed and was relieved.
If Yoon Chae-rin really wanted to destroy the world once, I had no means to stop it.
Because the current Yoon Chae-rin is incredibly strong.
‘If it’s now, can I win by attacking the truck I did?’
If it was a night job, I could handle that Yoon Chae-rin by myself, but it wasn’t her helplessness.
“But are you really going to stay here?”
“Yes. Her family is here too, and above all, she has kids she’s set to marry.”
“Family? How the family… Wait, are you married?”
Yoon Chae-rin saw me.
It was something of a bleak eye.
“Yes, get married.”
“Who is your opponent? Could it be Ijia again?”
“Gia is there too.”
“… Wait a minute? Gia too? Could it be that you are marrying multiple women?”
“… It is also recognized by law. No problem.”
Yoon Chae-rin was now looking at me with her mouth open.
“And I don’t want to give up either.”
“Who are you!”
Yoon Chae-rin said as if she was screaming.
*
After a moment of confusion, I explained to Yoon Chae-rin.
“So, are you marrying me?”
“What, right?”
And even if you do get married, problems abound.
Outwardly, Lee Yeon-ah is the guardian of Yoon Seung-ha and Yoon Chae-rin.
There are many views that she sees as the daughter she gave birth to. The problem seems to be liberating the tower.
‘The problem is that she even touched her mother-in-law…’
She said he was okay with being her secret lover…
Anyway, I looked at Yoon Chae-rin.
“I really didn’t expect this crazy plan to work…”
“What is your plan?”
“Um, well, can I tell you now?”
Yoon Chae-rin looked at me and said.
“It is not as grand as I thought. It was when you first landed here.”
“I?”
“Yes.”
Yoon Chae-rin opened her mouth.
“When you first came into this world, you were very confused. Siwoo Lee’s first… Oops.”
Suddenly, Yoon Chae-rin laughed.
“Um, there were a lot of things, but I made a lot of mistakes, and, kuhmm, anyway, it had a really cute taste.”
“I didn’t like you very much at first. Isn’t the kid suddenly talking nonsense, and he sighs in front of people, saying he’s not Yun Seung-ha?”
Indeed, it was worth it.
Come to think of it, in the beginning, I borrowed the power of the mask of tranquility and somehow endured it. There were also dangerous moments.
There was also a family there.
Yoon Seung-ha and Yoon Chae-rin were there at the same time.
It can be said that she received a lot of care in the psychological part.
“Anyway, he did well from the middle. I don’t know where he keeps picking things up and eating them, but he keeps getting stronger. I’m trying to catch up with me somehow in a weak subject. Then you became a pretty important person to me.”
After Yoon Chae-rin said that, she looked at me with sad eyes.
“Then you died.”
“… Is it like that?”
Too many things were omitted in the middle, but I sympathized with Chaerin Yoon’s words.
“So I got angry, I used too much force, and then the Earth was destroyed. So much that I can’t even use my hands.”
“…”
It was a rather scary story.
“… But then, there was also Seung-ha. Thanks to that, I destroyed it, and with the power of Seungha, I turned the Earth’s time again, and I left for a while to find a way to save you as well as a moment of reflection.”
What Yoon Chae-rin said next was simple.
Yoon Seung-ha left Yu-hee for a while, erased his memory and lived a normal life, then fell in love with me, and while fighting the devil together, I died instead of Yoon Seung-ha, and Yoon Seung-ha awakened.
“Since then, it has been repeated like crazy. I destroy the world, and Seungha brings it back to life. In doing so, I became obsessed with you, and you made us um… I hated it a lot.”
“Yes?”
“No, it wasn’t that I didn’t like it. From a certain moment, he looked at us with a contemptuous expression.”
Is that why you were so careful in the first place?
Yoon Chae-rin laughed bitterly.
“At that time, I was blown away. You are, with your memories intact, and we are… The world. … Anyway, that happened.”
“To sum it up roughly, the return to save me is what made me hate you to the point of contempt.”
“… Yes.”
Yoon Chae-rin nodded her head with a heavy expression. It really doesn’t fit.
I pondered for a moment.
However, no matter how many times I thought about it, there was only one thought.
I am different from Siwoo Lee.
I’ve come to this world and I’m living a pretty satisfying life.
I’ll worry right away when I go to the real world. Starting from making a living, buying a house, a loan, a car.
Even if you marry a good woman, there is no assumption that you can spend that married life peacefully.
I thought about it for a moment, and my stomach felt nauseous.
“Then, as much as I’m sorry, did you do well?”
“Yes?”
“I like this world quite a bit. Perhaps, unless the world suddenly perishes, I will continue to live in this world.”
At my words, Yoon Chae-rin looked at me with a surprised expression.
“Well, so don’t bother destroying this world with a sudden awakening or something.”
“… Yes.”
Yoon Chae-rin nodded her head.
“… But how do I get out of here?”
“I will send you.”
When Yoon Chae-rin glanced down, the space was torn apart, and she saw a scene. The darkness engulfed me and I saw women who were bewildered.
Didn’t time pass?
“Well, just in case you didn’t know, I temporarily stopped the world’s time.”
“… Yes?”
It was an absurd scale.
“Then can you stop a bit more while you’ve stopped?”
“It’s not that difficult, why?”
“I want to see Seungha.”
“Yes, I will send you.”
Yoon Chae-rin smiled and waved her hand. As I felt her body floating, my body moved into space before I knew it.
“Hi.”
Lovely voice. It seemed languid somewhere, but there was a deep excitement in it.
I slowly looked straight ahead.
There was no woman with the slanderous style Yoon Seung-ha originally possessed.
Long silver hair that goes down to her waist.
The size of the chest boasts an overwhelming volume.
As soon as I saw it, I was sure.
Indeed, it could be said that it was the final form of Yoon Seung-ha.
