chapter 64
64 – His World (6)
“Haa… Seed. There he is.”
After wandering the streets for a while, I could only find three people.
“No, where is it… !”
Seeing where the three were heading, I had no choice but to sigh again.
Because the place they were entering was a club.
Men talked to me like that even on the street, but it was clear that they would do more when they went inside.
Are you going in knowing where it is?
I felt like a parent who had left her child at the water’s edge, wondering why she was just doing stern things after crossing over at will.
Pampa Bam Pampa Bam-
The club was filled with the heat of a Friday night.
Because I don’t enjoy entertainment like this, it wasn’t good to go skin-to-skin with people I didn’t know.
I squeezed through the crowd and went inside and started looking for three people first.
However, perhaps because there were so many people, they couldn’t find it right away, and instead, the person they found was a familiar face other than the three.
“Miyeon… ?”
My girlfriend, Miyeon.
She was the one who said that she would meet her friend and have a drink with her today, but she was here for some reason.
She could have come to the club for a change of heart, but standing next to her was a man she had never seen before, not friends of the same s*x.
It wasn’t just that either, the two were exchanging strange smiles while rubbing their bodies together.
“Why, why… no way… “
At that moment, I remembered what Kana said.
The words that Miyeon was mixing her body and lips with a man she did not know.
Of course I thought it would be a lie, but now that I saw it, of course I couldn’t help but doubt it.
I approached Miyeon carefully first.
“-So you have a boyfriend?”
“-There is, but it’s not a big deal! It’s nothing special, but you’re going to go to a large company and meet me for a while-?”
“Keukkeuk- Then he doesn’t even know you’re shaking your ass here-“
It was a noisy place, but the conversation between the two could be heard clearly.
I don’t know if it was because I was only thinking about Miyeon’s voice, or if it was because the story about me leaked out, but among the countless noises, Miyeon’s feeling of pity for me was definitely conveyed.
“So-“
Miyeon couldn’t even spot me and she was rubbing herself with a man.
I didn’t feel particularly betrayed.
In the first place, it wasn’t that deep a relationship yet.
However, it wasn’t all that good.
It was the first time she felt this feeling of being confused, and it was difficult to wrap it up as okay.
Even though she didn’t love her that much, her chest throbbed strangely.
“… There you go.”
I quietly turned around and at the same time I could see three people surrounded by men.
And I approached them without hesitation.
“Stop it. I don’t like it.”
And then I dragged three people out of the club.
Miyeon still couldn’t find me.
*
“Lee, Ian… “
“Are you okay, mister?”
“Tieth… “
“Let’s go home and talk.”
The three people who were led by my hand looked at me worriedly without saying anything.
She must have thought that she was in a bad mood when she found out that her girlfriend was cheating on her.
She sure felt bad for her, but she didn’t love her too much for that.
Just a little betrayal. And disillusionment. It wasn’t such a deep relationship, so it wasn’t a feeling that would last long.
Still, I returned home with my mouth shut.
“So, did you go in there knowing what it was?”
“That, that follows that woman… “
I was able to understand the situation without the need for a long explanation.
It seems that the three of them followed Miyeon to secure evidence that she was having an affair.
And at the right time, I appeared there and the original plan came true.
However, without a cell phone or camera, how could he have tried to inform me of the situation?
To be honest, I only thought it was reckless, so I was rather angry.
“… Under. If I hadn’t shown up there. How were you going to let me know? It’s okay if I don’t believe it.”
“There is an artifact. The mana stored here can be used regardless of dimension, so I want to use video recording magic… “
“Ha, no. If there is such a thing, you should have returned to the original world a long time ago.”
“Four, because it is not enough to use dimension shift magic while mobilizing accident acceleration… It’s hard to use magic unless you’re at the level of an old man.”
“Ha… “
What were they thinking?
For me, less than a year has passed, but for them, eight years must have passed.
Maybe he took good care of it. His appearance didn’t age that much, but the fact that he didn’t age to his thoughts was shocking in a different way.
“Then I’ll do the math for you, so go back. If you use even the Pearl of Yeohwa, it will be possible.”
Honestly, throwing out three people like that bothered me.
No matter how much I hated that world, they were the people I was thankful for.
Furthermore, the three of them wouldn’t know anything about this world, but it honestly bothered them that they were thrown out like that.
In particular, Miya was the only person who reached out to me when I was struggling in a world I knew nothing about, and this time I felt guilty that I had unkindly dumped her into this unfamiliar world.
“Me, really? But… “
“I have no intention of going with you. People there are sick of it.”
“Well, then I won’t go back.”
“Miya?”
“Ian. I did not come to ask for the fate of the continent or to save the continent. I mean, I just came to see you.”
“Uh, huh?”
“It doesn’t matter what the continent becomes. Mom will live well anyway, and there are not many precious people among humans. I love you the most I’ve followed you all this way because I missed you. So I won’t go back I will live here.”
“Oh, no Miya. Here is… “
“Hate it? Was it all a lie when you said that I was the person you were most grateful for?”
“No, I mean it all. But this… “
It was undoubtedly true that Miya was the person I was most grateful for.
Actually, I was still feeling her gratitude to her, and I wanted to be with her if I were to be with her.
However, the worlds we live in are different. It meant that each person had a different place to be.
I am a person from this place in the first place, and Miya wasn’t sure if she would be able to adapt well to this world.
Above all, in that world, Miya’s mother was in the Demon King’s Army, and even after the war, she was able to lead a peaceful life as much as Miya.
That’s why, above all, Miya’s words made me wonder.
Of these three, she was the one who had the most reason to stay here.
“Okay then. I will live here.”
“Miya! Let yourself be mean… !”
“Right! I didn’t see that!”
“Why? Then the two of you can stay here too. I mean Ian is the most important.”
“Ugh… “
Why is it that I am so important?
Honestly, the situation on the continent is really not interested in anything.
However, I sincerely wanted them to be happy.
It wasn’t that I hadn’t thought of going back to the continent and defeating the demon king.
Because even if you do that, you can come back to this world anyway.
But I wasn’t sure. Will I be able to defeat the Demon King? Even if you use 7th tier magic.
And he was also reluctant to fight for those disgusting imperial bastards.
They have to solve what they did.
“Hmm, hmm. Anyway. Me too, man. I have no intention of forcing you. I just came to see you… So please don’t be so cold-hearted. With what kind of mind have we endured for the past 8 years… I want you to know.”
“I don’t think I’ll be an old man after 8 years? Eight years there is only eight months here.”
“… Uh?”
“That’s why I’m telling you to go back quickly. In a week, two or three months would have passed.”
“That… then… “
As I said, they shouldn’t waste their time here.
According to the prophecy, there would be less than a year left until the demon king resurrected over there.
If you spend a day here, several times the amount of time there.
“If you still want to protect the continent, there will be no time to waste here. I have to go and tell those proud imperial family members to do well.”
“That… Oh, and Julia… “
When the story of the imperial family came out, the story of the damned princess came naturally.
Perhaps she couldn’t love anyone and she was growing old alone because she didn’t release her contract in her last moments.
The purpose of revenge was achieved, but I was thinking that the treatment was not too lenient,
“… Imaginary pregnancy?”
Looks like it wasn’t as lenient as I thought.
Lorraine’s situation had only been heard in words, but it raised her eyebrows.
Her mind has already been ruined, and she feels terrible pain from even the slightest trigger.
She’s there she twists her mind to defend herself and even deceives herself that she loves me and is pregnant with my child…
It was terrible. When she imagined it, it was so grotesque and terrifying.
“I know you hate Yulia. And fully understand. Just like that… I wonder if that’s enough punishment.”
Certainly, he was properly punished. But even so, she had no intention of giving her her warmth.
Even if I go over there again.
It was something I had hoped for, but it was shocking to hear about it like this.
Of course, I had no intention of helping the princess.
“Anyway, just like Miya, I came because I wanted to see you. For this purpose, I was imprisoned in the magic tower for 8 years and only studied dimension shift magic. Therefore… Please stop being so harsh.”
“Me too!”
“… You didn’t do anything.”
“I also studied TS hard!”
“I will never go back! I will live with Ian for the rest of my life!”
There was sincerity in their words.
Yes, it should be, but why am I obsessed with the damn imperial family and the prophecies so that I treat the friends I haven’t seen in a long time so harshly?
They definitely had pure intentions, but I ignored them and judged them only with my own standard, making it difficult for them. In an isolated world where you know nothing about it.
“… First of all, I apologize for being harsh. It must have been very difficult just to come to an unfamiliar world.”
“Ian… “
“But going back… I don’t know either. Even for me, it’s not good that one human being perishes. But I’m not sure if I can stop the destruction if I go back now.”
“…… “
“But the three of them are also important to me. That is undoubtedly true. I showed my sincerity this far, but I don’t want to lose it.”
“Then… “
I couldn’t decide what to do either.
But one thing is certain: these three people must return to their world, and that world is rapidly approaching destruction even at this moment.
If you spend even one more day here, several times as much time will pass there.
It meant that the more time we dragged on, the closer we got to destruction.
Tee-Ring-
And the cell phone notification that rang just in time.
[I sincerely congratulate you on passing YY Electronics. New recruits…… ]
It was the final acceptance notice from the company I saw a while ago.
It seemed to inform them that they were now completely ready to return to their normal daily lives.
“Ian… ?”
But these three women in front of my eyes were a definite symbol of the extraordinary.
I don’t know why, but I couldn’t explain the situation in my reality to them.
“I… “
There was no time to think. Whatever it was, from their point of view, they had to go back there as soon as possible.
And I was hoping for that too. To make their world go back before it perishes.
However, it was also true that there were still many things to worry about.
“I… “
It’s like falling deep into an accident,
After a short but long thought, I opened my mouth.
