## Chapter 2123 – 2123. Gwangmyeong Ascension Diagram
“No, really!”
Mireyeong struggled in my arms.
It was pointless. Mireyeong couldn’t push me away or escape. It was just a cute tantrum. It seemed she really couldn’t do anything to me here.
“Ugh, really. Let’s just get out of here! There’s nothing here, I tell you?! Look. It’s just boring nature!”
“That’s proof you like your hometown. Otherwise, your mindscape wouldn’t be a scene of your hometown.”
“If I had to pick, I do like my hometown. But you’re misunderstanding something, honey.”
“Misunderstanding?”
“That I want to go back to my hometown. You’re just assuming that. Isn’t that right?”
“You don’t want to go back to your hometown?”
I let her down from my arms. If I kept holding her, I might end up having sex here. That wouldn’t be bad either… but it wasn’t too late to do it after looking around Mireyeong’s mindscape. Mireyeong, freed from me, sighed.
“I don’t want to go back right now, even if I will someday. Guyugok is an especially boring place in this world. A place where humans can’t enter without permission… All there is to do there is training.”
“A completely closed-off place where self-sufficiency is possible, huh. If a zombie apocalypse breaks out, I should go to Guyugok.”
“Self-sufficiency, my foot. There are Hoin people who pretend to be human and interact with others. The only thing that’s self-sufficient is food. Other things like clothes and spices, things that are hard to get, we get from outside. Just because we have fox ears and tails doesn’t make us much different from humans.”
I nodded. I knew, having been with Mireyeong for a long time. She didn’t have any fox-like habits. She was a human with fox ears and a tail. She did act like a fox sometimes, but that was something human women did too.
“There’s no way I’d want to go back to such a boring place. Maybe in the old days. But now, I’ve learned about so many fun things. I’m a civilized, cold city fox. And you’re the one who made me like this, honey.”
Naked Mireyeong smiled seductively and approached me. She wrapped her arms around my right arm. My arm was buried between her ample breasts.
“So, you’ll take responsibility, right?”
She looked up at me with sparkling eyes. The angle of her face, the contact with her chest, and the way she emphasized her figure. Even her beautiful smile. It was all intentional, no doubt. You could call it a fox act perfected through modern civilization.
Even though I knew it was a fox act, a male creature couldn’t help but fall for it. It was even more so when she was naked.
“Of course. You’re my woman.”
“That’s right. I’m only your woman, honey. So, let’s go outside of this mindscape and confirm our love? I’ll show you what heaven is like.”
She raised herself on her tiptoes and whispered in my ear with a seductive voice.
I chuckled. Her boastful words were just cute. After all, the winner on the bed would be me, the sex king with infinite stamina.
I walked forward. Mireyeong resisted with all her might, but it was no use. She was dragged along behind me.
“Ugh, really! You could give in just once!”
“No way.”
I moved forward.
The scenery of Guyugok was so stunning that it was breathtaking. But that was only for a moment. People get used to even this kind of scenery. After seeing it a few times, you get tired of it. There was a limit to the stimulation you could get from the scenery alone.
“You’re already bored, right? You’re especially not interested in things like scenery, are you? You’ve been glancing at my body since earlier… You like my body more than this scenery, right?”
“……”
I couldn’t deny it. As Mireyeong said, her body felt more beautiful than these landscapes.
Our eyes met. She smiled brightly. I tried to look away and moved forward. That was pretty dangerous just now.
“My womb has been throbbing since earlier. It’s all because of you, right? Come on, let’s go outside and have a good time?”
“Too late.”
A house appeared in the mountains. It was a modern building that was so out of place that it felt alien to the great nature. It was the same shape as the mansion on Nakwol Mountain.
Mireyeong, who had been nagging to go outside the mindscape, became quiet.
“It looks exactly like the mansion on Nakwol Mountain.”
“…You know that mindscapes are bound to be influenced by the outside. The situation on Nakwol Mountain is fun. Most of all, there’s a thrill in corrupting Wiyu-nim with modern civilization. Hehe.”
Most of the reason Wiyu is the way he is now is because of Mireyeong. I had only provided modern things.
“Actually, I thought your mindscape would be a modern city. You liked the city of Seoul, didn’t you?”
“I like Seoul. Even now, I want to go shopping with you at the department store, watch the latest movies at the cinema, and have coffee at a cafe. But I spent most of my life in Guyugok. I’ve spent so many years in Guyugok that my mindscape wouldn’t change just because I yearn for the city.”
Well, she had spent hundreds of years in Guyugok, so it would be stranger if her mindscape suddenly changed to a modern city.
“Samjeong is said to be the realm of perceiving the mindscape. Have you fully perceived your mindscape?”
“Of course! I want to say that, but that’s why I haven’t been able to overcome the wall of the Harmony Realm. I was mistaken in thinking I had fully grasped my mindscape. That’s why I’m trapped in my mindscape now.”
Ogi (Five Energies) draws the blueprint of the mindscape. It establishes the center of the mindscape. In other words, it could be said to establish consciousness.
Samjeong (Three Peaks) was the realm of perceiving the mindscape.
Johwa (Creation) was the realm of drawing the mindscape. The realm of fully drawing out the power of the mindscape and projecting it into reality.
That’s what Wiyu said.
As a bonus, he said that while the mindscape was important, there was no need to be obsessed with it. Just because your mindscape is special doesn’t mean that the real you becomes exceptionally strong, and just because your mindscape is weak doesn’t mean that the real you becomes weak. The mindscape doesn’t have much meaning in the measure of strength.
Wiyu’s opinion was that the reason the mindscape was important was related to mental growth.
Maybe Wiyu was right. She was someone whose strength and experience could never be ignored.
I went inside the house with Mireyeong. The house was neatly organized. There was nothing particularly strange.
I headed to Mireyeong’s room.
For some reason, Mireyeong had been quiet since earlier. When I glanced at her, her face was flushed, and her eyes were darting around. She looked like she was about to run away, so I took the arm that was in her arms and put it around her shoulder.
I entered Mireyeong’s room. I expected to see modern things like game consoles, manga, TVs, and computers. That was how her room was in reality. But the room that appeared was different from my expectations.
Mireyeong’s room was full of pictures of me. Most of them were pictures of me alone, but there were also pictures of Mireyeong and me together, as well as pictures of Yuria, Elena, and Joo Seo-hyun. The common thing was that I was in all of those pictures.
“Ah, ah, ah….”
Mireyeong covered her face with both hands. Her cheeks, visible between her fingers, had turned as red as tomatoes. It was as if she was dying of embarrassment at this situation.
“So, this was Mireyeong’s secret room. Do you like me that much?”
“W-Well, I think you’re misunderstanding something. It’s not like that. I do love you, but it’s not like I’m crazy about you? This is just… memories. Memories!”
“Hehe. Are your memories only related to me?”
“Ugh, th-that’s… Ah, really! I can’t help it! I ended up loving you like crazy!”
Mireyeong hugged me. I considered taking her right there several times. It wouldn’t be bad to take her in the mindscape… but I decided to look around more. There might be something more interesting. I could have sex a little later.
I looked around the room thoroughly. The desk drawers, the closet, even under the bed.
“There’s no underwear either.”
“Why do you think I’m naked?”
“I thought you were naked because it’s a mindscape.”
“I’m not an exhibitionist.”
There was nothing else unusual in the room. The other rooms were the same. However, unlike what it looked like on the outside, I could tell it was a boring place. No water came out when I turned on the faucet, and the TV wouldn’t turn on. When I opened a random book, there was no content.
“Do you know how bored I must have been here?”
“You should have masturbated.”
“This is a mindscape.”
“Your pussy is wet.”
“It’s because of your influence. Originally, the senses of the body are faint. I don’t get hungry, and I don’t need to sleep. I don’t have a sense of time either. The sun doesn’t set here. I was able to endure it because I believed that my knight in shining armor would come to save me. And as expected, you came to save me.”
“What if I hadn’t come?”
“Maybe I would have been consumed by the mindscape and lost my ego? And then I would have collapsed with the mindscape.”
“That wouldn’t have happened.”
“Yes. Because you would have saved me no matter what.”
I looked around the mindscape with her. We found a village deep in Guyugok. There were no people, only buildings.
“It’s the village of the Hoin people. But there are no Hoin people. It’s probably the same as the real village? This world doesn’t develop much even after decades. The saying that the mountains and rivers change in ten years doesn’t apply to this world.”
“It’s a backwater. A backwater girl.”
“No, wait! What’s with that harsh language? I admit that Guyugok is a rural area. But it’s not to the point of being called a backwater. There are magic spells everywhere, so it’s much more comfortable to live in than other villages in this world.”
“There’s no internet.”
“Ugh.”
“No Coupang, no Baemin either.”
“This world isn’t, isn’t modern.”
“I don’t think it would be possible even if this world developed like modern times.”
“……Wouldn’t the internet be possible?”
Come to think of it, it was natural for Mireyeong, a country girl who came from a rural backwater, to taste the superior culture of the city and become corrupted by delivery.
I took the country girl Mireyeong and wandered around. I thought there would be at least one interesting thing… but there wasn’t.
“It’s just a backwater with good scenery.”
“I told you not to call it a backwater. Guyugok is a nature preserve. The air is good, the water is good… It’s a good place to train.”
We wandered around here and there and arrived at a secluded place in Guyugok.
“Huh…? Was there a place like this….”
Mireyeong tilted her head. It seemed like she didn’t even know about this place herself.
We found blue flames burning brightly everywhere. The flames were in the shape of foxes and stared at us intently.
