MEMORIZE

"Do you, by any chance, intend to continue living here?”

As soon as the word came out,

"…what?"

At the same time as reflexively asking back, I doubted my ears.

Did I just hear it wrong?

"Do you have any intention of living here?" Home... No, don't you want to sit in the hallplane instead of going back to the old world? I mean, as a user."

But my brother continued calmly.

I didn't hear it wrong. The phrase "old world" is quite intrusive. Why did you bring this up out of the blue? What the hell are you trying to do?

I don't know no matter how much I think about it. My head is in a whirl.

In the midst of this, his brother had a face that was surprisingly calm. Just looking at it seems like I'm observing my reaction.

"You don't get mad."

"All of a sudden...What?

"I thought you'd jump if I brought this up. I was prepared to be criticized a little bit. But it's a surprise."

"Are you serious?”

Then, my brother gently opened his eyes.

"It's not bad, is it?"

They continue to talk as if they weren't.

"There's nothing bad about it?"

"Isn't it? Think about it. Me and you have established some place in the world. No, it's not enough to be in place."

"Because of it.”

"Of course I can miss my family and friends. But you said that, didn't you? Even though I came in two years earlier than you, the Earth's me hasn't disappeared. Since you've been a proper older brother, I think you're the same. At least my parents don't know."

"Brother."

"And to put it bluntly…Yeah, let's just say things work out and go back. Then wouldn't your situation be worse then?”

"It's too much.

"You know, there's another you on Earth, where you're completely gone. I hate to say this, but you're not even a single person anymore.”

Suddenly, I felt awkward. It feels like I'm caught in a solar plexus while my stomach is boiling. I want to say something, but I can't say anything.

"Status, Property, Honor, and Fate…"I'll abandon all this and go back to Earth...Can you handle it?”

“…….”

"This isn't the only one. The Earth is a very peaceful world unlike here, and you, who have lived in Hall Plain for more than 14 years."

"My brother."

Eventually, he cut me off. My heart was about to explode if I listened to it any more.

I took a big breath. My brother was staring at me with his left hand on his chin as if to say something.

"How can you do this to me?"

As soon as I brought it up, the eyes that were looking at me narrowed for a moment.

"You know that.”

I managed to talk, but my voice trembled. No vision, no breathing, all the senses I perceive seemed resonant. I tried to pull myself together, but I feel like it's getting worse.

"Then, you... You can't do this. You shouldn't be the only one talking like this.”

It was then.

"What I thought, what I came back to...!”

"Don't make excuses for me."

The moment I heard a voice that was so sharp that I thought it was strange,

"Did I ask you to save me or do this?”

I was completely speechless. I closed my eyes tightly.

My brother is...

If I die, please don't save me again.’

'Why? It's weird. I can't believe I can save you. I don't think my life is that cheap.'

'Suhyun...'

'Run away... at least you survive...'.’

…I didn't.

The moment I remembered, I suddenly felt like I was losing all my strength.

"And there seems to be a misunderstanding."

At the same time, my brother continued.

"It's better to be clear. I don't want to live here, I don't want to persuade you."

"Then…."

"As I said before, I want to know what's really going on you. Whether the idea still hasn't changed, or has it changed at all.”

"Why would you tell me that....”

A hoarse voice even if you hear it yourself.

"Because you're the one who turned everything back."

The older brother spoke without a change of face and quietly closed his mouth. And staying still for a long time seems to be waiting for me to say anything.

But I wasn't in the mood to talk. I was swallowed by a sudden sense of lethargy and couldn't get out of it. It just seemed like he didn't know what to say. Because.

"…I'm sorry."

At that time, I felt a sign of lifting up my body. When I opened my eyes a little late, my brother was already walking to the door after getting up from the sofa. Only then did I manage to come to my senses.

"Brother."

"I have an official announcement scheduled for tomorrow noon."

Holding onto the doorknob, he stood tall and stopped.

"Announcement?"

"I've already made up my mind. Not only the center, but all the cities in the east, west, south, and north...There's gonna be a lot of people. Maybe."

"I didn't hear it at all. What are you up to?”

"It's not a big deal. And the plan itself doesn't really matter."

My brother, who said so, turned his face halfway and looked at me.

"You're the one who matters."

"Am I…?"

"I won't say much because it looks complicated. Of course there are four seats in the official table tomorrow. It's up to you whether you'll join tomorrow or not."

"You don't have to go?”

"When you come, we'll go ahead with the plan, or we'll just finish with a brief presentation. So, let's hear today's answer from tomorrow's participation. You don't have to tell me right now.”

"Wait a minute."

"And I'll tell you here in advance. Whatever choice you make, I will respect and accept your decision unconditionally. …I mean it."

"Brother!"

The door opened and closed, followed by a clank. My brother disappeared like the wind.

“…….”

I stared at my brother's seat for a while and slowly buried myself in a chair. I tilted my head and looked at the ceiling.

The ivory pattern in view seemed to be moving or distant. I closed my eyes to a strong dizziness hovering around my forehead. I thought I heard something bumping, but I didn't open my eyes.

When I chose to breathe calmly, my mind seemed to have subsided a little. However, one does not disappear no matter how hard you try.

Not just this. The Earth is a very peaceful world unlike here, and you, who have lived in Hall Plain for more than 14 years....’

The last thing I wanted to hear. No, something I was really afraid to hear. So I cut him off without thinking. I didn't know you'd be thinking that way..

"Hey!"

Then a sharp cry hit me in the face. When I hurriedly opened my eyes and fixed them, I couldn't remember what was in front of me. Only then did I realize that someone had come in.

"What? Why aren't you saying anything? I knocked on the door a couple times."

Vivienne was grumbling right in front of the desk, her cheeks puffed up. As I shook my head vigorously, the focus of my vision came back. Vivien raised her eyebrows wondering if she was sick.

"I ran to the top of my lungs because of the call, and now I'm having a good night's sleep."

But soon, with a nasal sound, he put his hand in both hands down on the desk. A limp in one or two pockets the size of a soccer ball rang.

"Is this…?"

"Gold coins. It's probably about 37 days old. Add to the Clan's funds."

"Three hundred, what? Where did you get this?”

"Well, actually, there's one of the research results that I put up at auction. I just posted it as a joke, but I didn't expect it to sell this much."

Vivien raised his shoulder, sticking out his lower lip. As soon as I heard that it was an auction house, an idea crossed my mind. Seventy percent of the winning items are taken by sellers and thirty percent by organizers. In other words, if you reverse the amount Vivien said, the principal will be exactly 5.3 million gold coins.

"…That's great."

When he complimented with a blank smile, Vivien straightened his chest and lifted his nose.

"Well, it's not like I'm a big deal for a day or two. Why did you call me anyway?"

That's right. Come to think of it, I had something to give you. Originally, I was going to give it to him with a little smugness, but now I'm not in the mood. The third eye was activated by simultaneously taking two black and white elixir from the drawer.

1. Name : Vivien La Clacidus

[Muscle 51] [Integral 52] [Freshman 58] [Stamina 47] [Magic 94] [Lucky 74]

The elixir obtained from the "Deathless Gang" expedition is less than 95 points of limited mana, and the increase in mana when taken is 1 point. And the elixir purchased from the auction house is the same limit, and the horsepower increase is between 2 and 4 points when taken.

In other words, if you take them in order of expedition and auction house elixir, both of themselves. It can go up to 97 points and aim for up to 99 points.

"What are you staring at? Why did you call me?"

"Oh, I want to give you something."

He quickly pushed two elixir tablets forward with the way he sounded. Vivien opened her eyes and reached out with curiosity.

A little later.

"Uh…!"

As expected. Is it because he's an alchemist by nature? Or maybe he recognized it right away because he had experience making elixir in the past. The two eyes, which were looking at the two elixir alternately, grew as big as a lantern.

"Is this really…?"

"Yeah, it's a magic potion. I've heard that you have a lot of concerns about summoning because of lack of mana.”

"Really? You're not lying? You're not making fun of me, are you?"

"You can use the Goose Apparel if you want."

"Ki, Kim Soo-hyun!"

"However, there is something you must be careful about before taking it.”

I explained the sequence of taking the elixir. "I strongly recommend that you take black elixir first and white elixir second." Vivien nodded wildly and shone with a mixture of joy and emotion.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

“……?”

"Give me a word in advance. Did you know I was really surprised? My heart is pounding right now!"

"Ha ha..."

Vivien expressed joy with her whole body, with her hands tightly clasped with elixir.

I was supposed to be happy with him, but I turned my eyes without realizing it. For some reason, I felt uncomfortable. Unprovoked and uncomfortable, that kind of feeling. Then I felt the tumultuous signs withering soon.

"I, Kim Soo-hyun?"

"Huh?"

"Are you all right?”

"What? Nothing strange."

"Really? I'm glad then. Actually, it's been looking a little weird since earlier."

"Oh, it's nothing."

Something is unbearable. I shook my head and pulled myself up.

"Huh? Where are you going?"

Vivien asked with surprise when he put on the clothes.

"I'm sorry. I have an appointment. We have to get out right away."

You're lying. You don't have to make an appointment and leave right away. In fact, I don't know where to go if I leave the door like this.

"Oh, I guess you're still busy."

As soon as he tried to pass by, a disappointed look crossed Vivien's eyes, but he nodded as if he understood. After emphasizing the order of dosing, I made fun of my busy steps. It was then.

"Kim Soohyun!"

Just before I opened the door and left, a resonant voice caught me.

As I turned my eyes away, Vivien's arms were flapping up. The hands stretched out to the ceiling, soon curved round the top of the head, drawing a heart shape.

"I love you! Thank you so much!”

Vivien smiles brightly.

But I replied with a smile once.

I had no choice but to.

I closed the door quietly and then made fun of my quick steps.

I don't know if I'm walking like I'm running away, but I'm unconsciously speeding up. I heard several voices calling me from time to time, but I just focused on walking. From aisle to stair, from stairs to first floor, from first floor to entrance, from entrance to garden….

…then, where now?

I want to go somewhere, but I don't know where to go.

Though he thought it was a ridiculous wander, he eventually left the main gate and walked aimlessly.

And how long has it been?

While walking without hesitation, I felt a sudden sensation of jam.

When he came to his senses, his toes were in contact with a long, square, solid brick. It took me a while to realize that the brick was one of the stairs going up.

I raised my eyes blankly.

There

“…….”

A white temple rose to the top.
