“… .”
As if in trouble, my wife looked at me with her mouth shut .
I am a person who cannot stand a day without me, so it is natural to be worried .
But I can’t help it either .
I am now Yoo Ji-hwan, not Min Sung-jae .
You’ve been a nuisance to both of you, and you shouldn’t take sides until you untangle a tangled relationship .
As a wife, it may be a little difficult, but she is also a wife and parent of a family, so she will understand my will to protect the family .
However… .
I was worried for nothing as I remembered my wife having seizures .
“… If it seems too difficult, I will find another way .”
In fact , there is no other number .
At the most, it’s just a way to trick Soyeon again and secretly meet her .
Still, I can’t leave my sick wife alone, so I have no choice but to do this .
“… Is there any other way ?”
When my wife asked me if I could afford it, I smiled hard and grabbed her hand tightly .
How long did it take for my wife to make up her mind? .
After long deliberation, the wife cautiously opened her mouth as if she had finally made up her mind .
“… I ‘ll try .”
It means to be patient .
“ Thank you for believing in me .” I held my wife’s hand tightly
,
expressed my gratitude, and left her a promise that we would visit the hospital together soon .

The moment Ju Joo-hee cried and accepted Yoo Ji-hwan’s suggestion to eat mustard and left her own room .
Tok-tok –
tok- Min So-yeon was quietly touching her phone in a dark room with thick curtains .
[ Hello. Opened like this… ]
“… ha… . no… .”
She took a deep breath, and wiped away the message at once, and then buried her face in the pillow as if frustrated .
“… ha ha ha… .”
Min So-yeon, who quietly screams and vomits her anger out of a stuffy heart .
It has already been 11 hours since she decided to send a message to Yoo Ji-hwan .
Min So-yeon, who struggled to crawl into bed thinking that she should give Yoo Ji-hwan time, could not sleep at all, and eventually stayed up all night crafting a message to send to Yoo Ji-hwan .
“… .”
So-yeon Min, who had vomited out all her anger, quietly turned around and looked at the black ceiling .
The messenger’s screen appears blurry on the black ceiling .
Min So-yeon, who started to see nothing, rubbed her eyes and gently closed her eyes ,
“… … ha… … .”
With a long sigh, I relaxed my whole body and thought deeply .
How can I get the words out to change Yoo Ji-hwan’s heart… .
In fact, Min So-yeon is in a more unfortunate situation than anyone else .
I opened my heart to Yoo Ji-hwan, who appeared at the end, and approached her, but her mother, who had been hiding, suddenly appeared and snatched her in the middle .
Min So-yeon resented her crazy mother and Yoo Ji-hwan for being deceived by such a mother… .
Like my mother, I have a personality that never lets go of a man who asks once, so I only thought that I had to change Yoo Ji-hwan’s heart somehow .
“… What do we do… .”
Min So-yeon is no longer confident to send messages .
I have never had the experience of expressing a serious apology, nor have I ever sent a long message, so I couldn’t think of how to start, how to continue, and how to end .
I didn’t want to tell my ‘friends’ about this embarrassing situation, so I searched for useless content such as [How to apologize to my boyfriend], but the Internet did not help much with the current situation .
“… uh… .”
Now, Min So-yeon has two options . The only way is
to call Yoo Ji-hwan and have an honest conversation, or visit
him in person .
Min So-yeon is already aware that she has few options, but… .
Min So-yeon was afraid of being rejected by Yoo Ji-hwan, so she couldn’t even try .
“… .”
How long has it passed since Min So-yeon, who had been contemplating for such a long time, grabbed her phone again and wrote the first sentence and then erased it .
“… Mr. Lee… !”
In the end, Min So-yeon, who was annoyed with herself, threw her phone away in a panic and got up and thought .
“… It can’t be this way .”
Whether it’s porridge or rice, I want to see Yoo Ji-hwan’s face for now. He’s a little stingy ,
but he’s a man who knows how to make sense, so he’ll know his injustice .
“… .”
So Min So-yeon firmly believes in Yoo Ji-hwan and prepares to go out .

Time passed and it was lunchtime .
After my wife and I was left alone, I lay quietly on the sofa in the living room .
“ Ha… .”
relationship with Soyeon .
And the relationship between his wife and Soyeon .
I have no idea where and how to start .
I think I’ll have to talk to Soyeon and convince her to take some time… .
Considering Soyeon’s resemblance to her mother, it is highly likely that she will resent her more .
However, it is not possible to trust his wife .
“… driving me crazy… .”
It felt like I was carrying a load of luggage on a single rope hanging from a cliff .
If I don’t do it right, it’s all over .
“ Ha… .”
That moment when I took a deep breath and thought of the best way to clean up the relationship .
Flashing –
My eyes flashed, and a familiar hologram floated in the air .
“ Ha .” It was a
damn ‘message’ .
With a wrinkled expression on my face, I jumped up from the sofa and stared at the ‘Message’ .
[ Call Hye-sun Gong home . ]
└ Success Reward: Invitation
… Hyesun at home ?
It’s still a disturbing situation, but I’m calling Hyeseon over here .
I was displeased with the content of the ‘message’ whose intention was unknown, and I spoke softly to the air .
“… What do you mean ?”
At that moment, another ‘message’ flashed next to it .
[ Invitation: Invitation to the Tower of Knowledge . ]
As if persuading them to get it soon .
… tower of knowledge ?
I was even more suspicious of the questionable content of the ‘message’ , and the
‘ message’ quickly began to explain the ‘invitation’ in detail as if to persuade me .
[ The Tower of Knowledge is a tower where wizards from all over the world gather, and the higher you climb, the more diverse knowledge you can acquire.
]
That means it’s a training place for wizards… .
I’ve never heard of such a place in my life .
Although there are guilds like perverts where only magic-type hunters gather, this is the first time I’ve heard of a tower called the Tower of Knowledge .
“… .”
With strong doubts, I gently crossed my arms, and the ‘Message’ gently changed the content and persuaded me .
[ Invitation (Ex): Invitation to the Tower of Knowledge . ]
“… huh ?”
Ex rank .
Continuing from last time, it’s an Ex rank again . Are you
giving out state management-level items twice ?
Why ?
If it had been difficult to clear it, I might have agreed to it, but this time, it’s all about calling Hye-sun to her house .
So far, I’ve accepted that, but… .
This time you can never just skip it .
“ You, what the hell are you?”
But… .
The ‘ message’ showed no change and was waiting for me to accept the new mission, and said ,
“ Yes, this is… .”
With such a ‘message’ attitude, I decided not to proceed with the mission any more .
I can’t reveal my identity to Soyeon because of the restrictions placed on ‘Message’ .
Thanks to this, my wife and daughter hate each other as if they were all over the place , and
our family has been turned upside down .
I like peace at home much more than items of astronomical value that are poured out as if to reward them .
Rather than sacrificing my family to save the world, I would rather protect my family and fight against destruction .
“… .”
The moment I made up my mind to see the unchanging ‘message’ .
Flashing –
The ‘ message’ is finally starting to make a difference .
[ Hello ]
A movement as if someone was typing .
[ Hello. It is the ‘system’ in charge of managing the world . ]
I ‘message’… , No, I was a little surprised by what the ‘system’ was saying .
“… No, what ?”
You’re the world’s manager… .
I thought something unusual was hidden, but I didn’t know it was this grand .
Isn’t it like a ‘god’ from religion ?
[ The world is always running towards destruction. We are moving in a variety of ways to prevent that destruction, and we have chosen you to stop that destruction on our behalf . ]
“ What… .”
Accidents do not follow properly on an unexpected and distant scale .
So… , that we must change the future before destruction approaches ?
[ … ]
The ‘ system’ was silent as if agreeing to my thoughts, and I
flopped down on the sofa with a feeling of absurdity .
“… why me why me… .”
I was taken aback by the unbelievable content, and I was speechless .
Why the hell did it have to be me ?
Why did you make Soyeon the ‘strongest’ ?
Why do you keep attracting Soyeon, who has no relationship, and why are you trying to grow me ?
Unexplained questions abound .
And at that moment… .
“… .” What the
‘ system’ had been saying flashed through my mind .
‘ Various ways to prevent the destruction of the world .’
“ Huh… .”
There are degrees of absurdity .
It feels as if they are trying to adequately pretend to be the end of the world .
The reason for not revealing her identity to Soyeon, and the reason she keeps getting stronger and stronger with Hyesun, is to prevent the destruction of the world ?
“ You want me to believe you now ?”
[ … ]
But the ‘system’ didn’t even make an excuse, and when I saw such a ‘system’ ,
I sighed quietly .
“ Ha… .”
I just wanted to live happily with my family, but I don’t know how I got involved in this kind of thing .
Should I just follow along as I have been doing ?
Or should we rebel, refuse to follow, and fight against destruction ?
Confused, I wrapped my head around my throbbing head and looked at the ‘system’, and after
pondering for a while, I managed to give an answer and spoke softly .
“ Listen well… .
”
This is a warning . A
final warning not to touch my life . If you touch my family, then they will all die .”
Follow the ‘system’ to a level you can afford .
But the moment I cross the ‘line’, I will mercilessly reject the ‘system’ .
[ … ] Whether the
‘ system’ accepted the negotiation, it did not change for a while, and at
some point it flashed – and sent a short sentence .
[ Don’t worry !! ]
Somehow I felt the tone was strangely different, but I had no choice but to believe the rant of ‘System’ .
