15 – World 11. Reclaimed Light (3)
“Sigh.”
Karina let out a long sigh, not knowing how many times today.
“Miss Karina. You just let out the eighth sigh.”
“…”
No, I sighed exactly the 8th time.
The reason I let out a sigh was because I never imagined that things would get so twisted as soon as I went through the last regression.
‘Did you say that person came from another dimension?’
Carina bit her lip as she remembered the man whose name she still didn’t know.
‘In the 1st and 2nd recursion, I didn’t even see a nose poke, so why did it appear in the 3rd recurrence and make things like this!’
Thanks to that, Hayden’s recruitment also went through the water.
Even so, it was a fatal factor for Karina, who started later than others and was restricted in her growth.
But it wasn’t absolutely bad.
‘That child I saw earlier…’

During the conversation, Karina thought of a scruffy girl who had come down with sleepy eyes.
If her memory is correct, she was a girl who would later become famous as a player killer.
I couldn’t help but be surprised when I saw a girl whom I had met only once throughout the entire return trip and had not even had proper information about.
‘I wonder if the future will change because I’m with a man from another world this time.’
The possibilities were great.
However, the murderer itself did not seem to disappear.
‘Maybe I’ll turn another child into a murderer.’
Karina was a murderer she had only encountered once, but she thought it was certain that she was raised by some organization.
That’s also because most of the equipment he took after killing players went to some organization.
Moreover, since the girl who was the murderer is in this city, it means that the organization is also somewhere here.
‘I think it will come out if I dig a little more… but it’s impossible.’
Anyway, if this information was a benefit from the man who came over from another dimension, it was a benefit.
Of course, it was an advantage that was worse than recruiting Hayden.
‘Come to think of it, did that man ask for help?’
At this time, what Karina thought was that she and the man agreed to ask Hayden for help.
It’s not easy considering Hayden’s personality, but on the contrary, Hayden is the person he brought into his house.
I didn’t know if I could change my mind.
No, I had to turn it around.
‘Because if I can’t recruit Mr. Hayden, I have to go to District 1.’
when you do the first regression.
At the time, Karina grew up receiving massive support from the ruler of the city through some kind of deal, but the results were not good.
Her thoughts were only focused on how to maintain the city.
Players were also mere accessories to maintain the city.
Naturally, Karina was no exception.
At first, it received massive support through transactions, but as time passed, support stopped and was abandoned.
In other words, the ruler of this city had no intention of resolving the fog of death by saving another dimension.
In a way, it could be said to be realistic.
It’s because the city is maintained by using the power obtained there rather than from another dimension that has no hope.
That was the idea and goal of the current ruler of the city.
So, from the second regression, it starts with the lottery winnings…
“yes?”
Moment.
Karina immediately looked up at the sky in response to some kind of change.
There was a sight that was hard to believe with the naked eye.
‘light?’
It was sunlight to be exact.
Somehow, the bright sunlight was shining down from the sky.
Also, Karina wasn’t the only one who felt the change.
“Uh, huh?! Tae, it’s the sun!”
“sunshine! The sun shines!”
“The fog of death is gone!”
People who saw sunlight for the first time in years because of the death fog cried out without taking their eyes off the sky as if they were facing a miracle.
‘what? What happened?’
However, it was embarrassing to Karina.
This is because there has never been anything like this in the regressions that have been experienced so far.
‘no way······.’
There is only one difference from previous regressions.
It was a man who said he had come from another dimension.
Karina was instinctively convinced that the man had done it.
‘Check, I’ll have to check.’
Then, I immediately turned my steps toward the house and headed back to the building where Hayden lived.
* * *
After using magic, I frowned slightly.
‘More than this is difficult.’
It was good to create four whirlwinds and suck up the fog of death.
However, as the fog of death gathered, the whirlwind I created was about to dissipate.
It seemed that the effect of denying the mana contained in the fog of death itself was more powerful as it was combined.
‘It’s nothing special.’
If you overdo it, you can get rid of the fog a little more, but it doesn’t seem to make a big difference.
Therefore, thinking that I should stop at this point, I first opened the subspace and took out the MP recovery potion of the game item.
I could use game skills, but I actually had no HP or MP.
It means that I did not become a game character myself.
In fact, game skills could be used regardless of MP.
Then, what do HP and MP recovery potions fill?
The answer is simple.
HP restores physical strength or injury, and MP restores various energy.
Here, the various energy of the MP was all the energy I had.
To put it simply, it restores the power of phantom water from the first world or mana from the tenth world.
The reason this is possible is because the game ability itself was created by the Creator God.
In short, it is the ability of a creator god.
The status of the creator god, who is at the top of all beings, has the effect of restoring everything corresponding to MP, as described in the item description.
Anyway, when I drank the potion, I felt that the mana I had used so far was filled up in an instant.
‘here······.’
I can’t leave the fog of death I’ve been trying to collect.
So the method I chose was to burn it without a trace.
‘Burn up.’
I couldn’t see it from where I’m standing now.
The currently collected fog of death was confined to a round sphere of flame like the sun, burning endlessly.
After waiting, it seemed to work for me.
The fog of death was slowly burning away and disappearing.
‘But it takes too long.’
I don’t know, but it seemed like it would take about three hours to burn it all up.
The attempt to resolve the death fog was only partially successful, and he turned his head to the place where Hayden and Ren were nearby.
The two of them stared blankly up at the sky as if they had made a promise.
Then Hayden still looked up and said in surprise.
“No, did you do this…?”
“I or someone else would have done it.”
“I couldn’t believe it even after seeing it myself. Did you get rid of all the fog of death by any chance?”
I honestly shook my head and answered.
“I wanted to, but I only removed the area around this city.”
“There must have been something wrong.”
“Yes. There was a strange aura in the fog of death. It’s the energy that pushes my magic away.”
“How far did you get rid of it?”
“The city here is wider than I thought… first, I removed the fog for about 100 km from the outskirts.”
“…”
For me, it was only a small part of it, but Hayden looked at me with more surprise than when he looked up at the sky.
“Then there is no death fog up there?”
“No. Unless the fog of death multiplies.”
“Ah, then I guess I can only see the sky now for a while.”
At my words, Hayden said as if he knew roughly.
I also thought similarly.
The fog that covered the world wouldn’t disappear forever just because it cleared away part of it.
‘Even if it’s removed now, it’s highly likely that it will cover it again over time.’
The best way is for me to use magic every day to expand the range of dispelling the fog.
I thought it would take a year to get enough.
Still, Hayden and Ren didn’t move with their eyes wet with emotion, perhaps because it was the sky they hadn’t seen in a long time.
Well.
Should I leave it alone and go down alone?
I thought about it and said in case.
“Come down. Let’s eat some rice soon.”
Then Hayden and Ren immediately moved.
“Come to think of it, I must be hungry.”
“I’m hungry.”
Watching the two of them moving as if food was more important than the clear sky I had seen in years, I also went down to the first floor.
Should I eat omurice and egg soup?
As I simply decided on the menu and went down to the first floor, a loud sound rang in my ears.
beep-
Read from noble mtl dot com
Does this sound like the sound you hear when you ring a doorbell?
“There are a lot of guests looking for today.”
Along with that, a certain figure was reflected on the translucent screen installed near the entrance on the first floor.
Looking at it, it was a regressor woman who had just returned.
‘Have you come back after going back?’
Hayden was a person who had visited once, so he opened the door after checking his face.
rumbling-
Then, as soon as I heard the sound of the steel shutters being raised, the regressor woman opened the door and appeared.
“Sigh. Sigh.”
He ran with all his might, sweat beading on his forehead and breathing heavily.
In contrast, the android in the back was just standing calmly, not showing any signs of exhaustion.
Anyway, the woman who came inside looked right at me and opened her mouth.
“Now, sky. Is that what you did?”
I expected it, but is it because of the fog of death?
After thinking about it for a while, I nodded.
Since he is a regressor, he answered honestly with the intention of getting closer.
“Yes. It is what I did.”
“What the heck, how…?”
“Because it is a power obtained from another dimension. But did you come to ask that?”
Conversely, when asked again, the woman said nothing as if at a loss for words.
The half-joking question must have been true.
However, he soon remembered something and spoke to me in a slightly urgent tone.
“The ability to dispel fog. If it is a power obtained from another dimension, can it be accessed and used?”
“Nope. I tried connecting earlier, but I couldn’t use it.”
If it was an ability that removed the fog, I couldn’t use it.
What you can use is your ability in the game.
However, as if my answer was unexpected, Hayden looked at me with a slightly surprised look.
It seemed surprising that subspace was possible, but other abilities could not be used.
Incidentally, the regressor woman also looked disappointed.
Looking at such a regressor woman, I said.
“You can use other abilities instead.”
“Any other ability?”
“For example, it is possible to freely move objects from this place to that world.”
The regressor woman blinked as if she didn’t understand for a moment, and then showed her growing indefinitely.
