124 – EP.26.5 After Play
I felt like my mind was floating..
I feel like my mind has run away even though my body is fine.
Things in the game have nothing to do with reality, but it was a symptom that occurred because they were left intact in the memory.
In fact, I began to doubt that what I was seeing was still the hallucinatory world created by Miho.
I feel like I’m going to get a real PTSD….
“Are you feeling better?”
“Ah, yes. It’s kind of chilled out.”
“This is Cocoa. I hope you drink at least this and gain strength.”
“Thank you….”
A cup of warm cocoa in a mug that Yongin hands you.
I couldn’t fully accept his favor because I didn’t feel the sweetness, but I was grateful enough just to take care of him.
I felt good when I took a sip and the warmth permeated my body.
Should I say that the heart is healed? .
“Yuu, are you okay now?”
“Yes. It’s okay now.”
“Boss. It’s better not to overdo it.”
“Don’t worry. It’s not that I’m overdoing it, it’s because I’m really okay.”
Two Shinsoo who have been protecting me with worried expressions ever since I lost my mind.
Following the cocoa given by Reusis, these were the elements that calmed the mind.
“Are you really okay?”
“Ah… !”
But when I face Miho, I unknowingly start to flinch.
As long as her in-game memories remain intact, she has no choice but to be reluctant.
Still, it’s my precious pet, so I don’t try to avoid it, but it wasn’t easy.
“I’m sorry. I became emotional without even realizing it, so I stopped doing nasty things to Mr. Seo….”
“Gwa, it’s okay! Was it just a game?”
“No. Even if it’s a game, what I’ve done doesn’t mean it’s nothing. So, in the sense of properly reflecting, I will refrain from having s*x with Mr. Seo for the time being.”
“Me, really?!”
Miho, who likes s*x with me more than three meals a day, would give up her night job… !
I couldn’t help but be so surprised that I couldn’t keep my mouth shut.
On the one hand, I was very happy to hear that my freedom and rest were guaranteed for the time being.
To the point where all the pain and liberation I felt just now completely disappeared.
“Yes. Really. Do you think I would lie to you?”
“Mi, Miho!!”
“Anyway, have a good rest today and tomorrow. From the day after tomorrow, you will have to love me again!”
Hey! If you’re going to let me rest for just two days, I’d rather not talk….
I feel like I’ve lost my hopes for nothing.
“Has your hair gotten better?”
“Ah, yes….”
“You had a lot of trouble running around in a game with many problems. Especially at the end….”
“Ahahahaha… ….”
“Hmm. Anyway, thanks to you, we had a fun and interesting time too. So, as I said before the start, let’s reward you for participating in the game.”
“Bo, you mean compensation? Even though everyone except Miho was defeated?”
“Yes. Regardless of victory or defeat, I’ll grant everyone’s wishes one by one.”
It was a very unconventional reward.
A black dragon who declares that he will grant one wish at a time.
It looked like a wish-granting dragon from a cartoon.
“Can you give me the ability you want?”
“Of course. Just say anything.”
“Then give me a powerful hypnotic ability so that I can reject Miho’s immortality….!”
“What about the ability to enhance stamina?”
“If it doesn’t work, it’s like the fact-distorting ability to pretend that what actually happened didn’t happen….”
“I think it is okay to have endurance to endure intense action for a long time.”
“…… At least, can’t you give me the ability to escape that no one else can catch?”
“It is not bad to wish for natural resilience so that even if you die, you can quickly come back to life.”
f*ck. Is this what you call the answer?
What I want is one of the evasion abilities, but all I hear being replaced are defense abilities.
Perfect Dongmunseo Answer(東問西答).
I would understand if Miho had a weakness or if Miho’s attachments depended on an absolute guidance function.
It’s not like that, so I don’t know why they keep trying to prevent me from avoiding it.
“Okay. I don’t want anything grandiose, so please just increase your strength.”
“Hmm, it sure takes a lot of strength to hit a divine beast with a human body!”
“… ….”
I really want to lose just one game, ignoring the race difference.
However, physical attacks were not possible because they were already dead without a soul state or body.
Even if you say that you can touch it because there is a game-like setting in play, it won’t work in reality.
I put aside my false dreams and decided to quietly receive power from the ancient dragons.
“Then I will give you strength from now on, just stay still.”
“Yes.”
A small black object is created like magic from the black dragon’s hand.
At first, I wanted something like that, but when I looked into it a bit, I realized that it was one of the black dragon’s scales.
Anyway, while thinking about why he took out his scales.
Suddenly, the black dragon snapped his fingers and fired his scales at me.
Mong automatically reflexively tried to avoid it, but the shooting scales far exceeded my reflex speed….
“Kuhup… ?!”
In the end, before I could move properly, I was hit in the abdomen by the scales.
I let out a short scream involuntarily thinking I had hit it right, but contrary to what I expected, there was no pain at all.
Even though I definitely felt a hole in my stomach.
“As expected, it was so sudden that I was very taken aback. I’m sorry, but if you tell me in advance, everyone will try to avoid it.”
“Ah…. Is that why you put it in as a surprise like now?”
“Yes, but there must have been no pain. Isn’t it?”
“As you said, miraculously, there is no pain at all. So is this the end?”
“Yes. I put a portion of my power into a scale and put it into you, so there will be a change.”
“Ummm, I don’t feel much right now….”
“Why don’t you try it yourself?”
“A test?”
“Yes.”
-Kooung! Cooong!
A huge vibration that shakes the surrounding ground.
It was the same ground tremor as when an adult ancient dragon charged.
Are you trying to tell me to fight the ancient dragon again?
It’s okay because I didn’t die in the game, but now that it’s real life, I’m tired.
“As you said, I brought a megalith here from the Earth Dragon’s area.”
Contrary to what I was worried about, the identity of the ground tremor was a rock that seemed to exceed 5m in size and Leusis, which was carrying it.
And he will soon be in front of us! He made a noise and put the rock down.
I never thought I would be able to carry a huge rock that no human could dare to dare with just one index finger….
I was surprised to see Leusis carrying a rock the size of a basketball.
I thought he would be strong because he was a dragon and a minion who supported the dragon of the beginning, but seeing it in person like this, I really had nothing to say.
“I am not saying that you should listen to this rock like leusis… ?”
It was clear that this rock, let alone lifting it, would end with only the waist falling out.
Even if you hear it by chance, you’ll soon run out of energy and be crushed….
“Don’t worry, I don’t intend to make you do anything that unreasonable.”
“Then why did you ask me to bring such a large rock?”
“I can’t lift it, but shouldn’t I break it down and see?”
“I am… ?”
The black dragon nodded lightly.
I’m at a loss for words.
Assuming that there is a rebar weighing 1 ton, they said to break it with your bare hands as you cannot lift a rebar weighing 1 ton.
From the prerequisites to Seosoon, I got everything wrong.
At least it makes sense.
“You may doubt it, but try it. Shouldn’t you at least try?”
“I wish I had at least insurance.”
“Good. If you hit it with all your heart and the rock doesn’t break, I promise to give you one of the powers you’ve been talking about.”
“Okay. You say that, but let’s try something.”
He approaches the rock while loosening up his tensed muscles.
I thought it was huge from a distance, but when I saw it up close, it felt even more grand.
Can I really break this?
I am worried in many ways.
“Once again, power! You must hit the center of the rock with all your might!”
“Okay….”
The Black Dragon warned in a voice mixed with impatience, as if it were quite scared.
Even if it’s not the case, I’m extremely nervous….
I don’t know if the person who was confident until now knows that it’s more burdensome to say that.
“Sup… !! Ha… !!”
After taking a light, deep breath, I glared at the very center of the rock.
All you have to do is extend your fisted hand toward the center of the rock.
Since the right arm seems to have more strength than the numb left arm, I clenched my right hand tightly.
Since it’s a shock to the arm and rock, it can’t be helped that some pain is involved.
Bite your lips.
At the same time, I put all my strength into my right arm and right fist.
The gaze is at the very center of the rock.
The moment I thought my gaze was fixed enough, I pushed my arm toward the end of my gaze without delay.
-Quaang!!
With a terrifying roar, a tingling sensation penetrated my brain through my arms.
The pain of hitting the wall and rolling on the floor while running around as a child.
Even though I felt like a dick, I burst into laughter as I watched the rocks collapsing.
‘Is this for real?’
I was dubious about it, but I felt the thrill of being able to do it.
What would happen if the government stabbing that was done now was done to a person?
‘No, that’s not the point.’
The reason we asked for the strength of the black dragon was to prepare for a fight with divine beasts who would reveal their hostility to us.
I didn’t ask for it to feel superior by writing it to a person.
I looked back, shaking my head, saying that I should never misunderstand this.
“Thank you, and sorry. You gave me great power, but I doubted it.”
“Keep in mind that there is no word for disappointment in anything we dragons give.”
“Yes.”
But I wanted to ask why the game balance was so disappointing.
There was no reason to make the atmosphere cheap.
“Okay. Then, I will give you one more gift next time.”
“Yes? I gave you this power, but would you like to give me one more?”
“Yes. By the way, this gift is given to you by another dragon, not me.”
“Another dragon… ?”
As before, blue scales that are created in his grip.
As soon as I saw it, I knew who it belonged to.
“Originally, dragon souls never give their hearts to those they see for the first time, but there was one dragon that fell in love with you while playing. This is the gift the dragon gives you.”
“Ohh… !!”
As soon as you see it, a wave of emotion starts to rise in your heart.
As soon as he heard the story, a dragon he felt a deep comradeship came to mind.
I couldn’t help but accept the gift from him, which was nothing short of a sign of friendship.
“Let’s see, the ability contained in this scale is an enhancement of stamina… ….”
“Seobang! Let’s try it right now!!”
Oh sh*t!
