How to Survive as a Player Chapter 208

#208

After returning from the tower, Se-Hyeon spent a few days without much sleep. When Se-hyeon finished Ruhak’s promotion, Jae-young Lee and Do-hyeon Baek, including Fan, had already returned to their own empire.

It was an understandable situation, as they also had to deal with the turmoil about the gap between them and the people of the empire. Therefore, the person Sehyeon faced as soon as he recovered from his illness was Agatha of the Cavalry Empire.

[Thank you for coming back so well. Since he looks fine, I guess my worries were unfounded.]

Sehyun tilted her teacup and watched as her elegant eyes gently curved. Despite her worries, Agasa led the alliance well during Sehyeon’s absence.

After checking, the number of empires belonging to the Chowun Alliance had already exceeded 100. Before Sehyun left, the number of Choun Alliance was about 50 countries, so about twice as many empires decided to join in.

“Agasa, it looks like you’ve had a hard time. Are you okay?”

[Haha, even though it looks like this, our White Demons have endless stamina. I’m not going to give up yet, so don’t worry. I can’t explain everything, but a lot has happened so far. From the incoming empire declaring its vassal state to the news of the collapse of the White Coat Alliance. All those who belonged to the White Coat Alliance have now been absorbed into our alliance.]

“Tira, are you calmly staying in the empire?”

[It’s still like that.]

till now. Agatha, who dreams of becoming a grand duke, will definitely know Tyra’s future whereabouts. However, the reason why it is not said out loud is probably because Tyra’s whereabouts are implicitly related to Agatha’s dream. It was a kind of acquiescence.

“We will soon find a place with the empires that have expressed their intention to become vassals. “Anyway, this is a contract, so we have to go through formal procedures.”

[Yes, I would be grateful if you did. Oh, and the top 10 empires will gather together and visit the guide again to hear about the Implementation Empire on the 91st floor. Since Tira had to attend inevitably, I would like you to join us then.]

“Yes, I understand.”

[Well, see you next time.]

The communication ended with a deep smile. Sehyeon jumped up from his seat and headed towards the place where the diary was written. When I picked up the book where I had written down everything that came to mind last night, the mess of writing caught my eye.

It was a text that described everything that happened inside the tower. Sehyeon planned to organize this article and distribute it to the empires that would attack the world of implementation.

It took approximately two weeks for Sehyeon to break the tower. He originally should have broken in the nick of time, but events that inevitably transpired made that impossible. He was not a destruction that could be delayed, nor was he a destruction that could be prevented in advance.

Sehyeon was just swept away by the flow that seemed to have been put together.

Although it is not possible to say anything definitively as there is only Sehyeon as a precedent, there is a high possibility that the next world to be realized on the 91st floor will also be destroyed as the story goes.

The problem was the ‘time’ of destruction, which we did not know when it would occur. The reason why Sehyeon was able to attack the tower in two weeks was because the destruction occurred within a month, which was the attack deadline.

But what happens if the ‘destruction’ that occurs in the tower does not occur within a month?

Of course, that is just one case. If the goddess in charge of the tower knew the whole story, and if she was considerate in many ways like this time, the time could have been extended.

“road.”

Sehyeon, who was lost in thought, reflexively turned his head back. Kyle, who was standing dead in front of the door, was staring straight at Sehyun.

“How about you sit down?”

Kyle was the hero who hated seeing Sehyun stand there the most. The reason was that he felt like he was going to break his leg, so he never stood in front of Kyle for more than 10 minutes unless it was important.

“okay okay. “I’ll sit down.”

Sehyun picked up a book and headed straight to the sofa. But his extended steps gradually became slower. The gaze turned to Kyle again.

“… Kyle, is Len still in the room?”

“yes. “I believe it will come out soon, so don’t worry about it.”

From the day he left the tower until today, Renshis had stayed in his quarters and had not come out. I don’t know why. He could only vaguely guess that his actions inside the tower had some influence. Couldn’t there be something wrong with the actions he did to the old man to save Renshis? The result of twisting cause and effect.

The nagging thoughts gradually subsided. For now, all we could do was wait for Renshis to come out of the room on his own. Whatever the outcome, the most important thing to Sehyeon was that Renshis did not disappear.

Sehyun took another step and headed to the sofa. Right now, the priority was to do what I could.

When Sehyeon finished organizing documents about what happened in the tower, the day was already well behind him. After a moment of waking up, turning his stiff body around, Sehyun stiffened his shoulders when he saw the hero in front of the door.

Another vassal now stood where Kyle had been. I don’t think I’ve ever been so focused that I couldn’t even hear the sound of the door opening, but I don’t know when that changed, but he was standing in the shadows for a long time, looking completely absorbed.

It was Renshis, a hero who had been worried about Se-hyeon recently.

The face I saw after a long time was gaunt. But other than that, Renshis had a good expression on his face. The smile that seemed like a smile let me know that my worries were unfounded.

“It’s been a while, Rod.”

Sehyun silently approached Renshis. Nothing had changed except for his dry face.

“I needed time to sort out the memories flowing in. So, it’s a little late.”

I see. Many words lingered in his mouth, but instead of asking a question, Sehyun held out his hand in front of him.

“Ren, should we go for a walk at night?”

Renshis smiled instead of answering. And then he nodded and took Sehyun’s hand and squeezed it.

Perhaps because it was a moonlit night, it was chilly outside. Walking that chilly night, Sehyeon headed to the place where Renshis guided her.

After walking through the well-manicured maze-like garden, we arrived at the center of the garden, where there was a small fountain. The area was full of bushes, so if you looked up you could see the sky as if it were trapped in a round place.

It was also Renshis’ favorite place. Every time he checked trust, he always led Sehyun to this place.

“Please sit this way.”

Lenshis sat Sehyun down on a bench that had been swept out of the grass and knelt down on one knee in front of Sehyun. Then he took something out of his pocket and held it out to Sehyeon.

“ah… .”

What Renshis held out was a letter he always carried with him. His slightly curved turquoise eyes were begging me to read. When he received the folded paper, he felt a familiar texture. The damp feel of old parchment.

When I opened the paper, there was writing inside it that I had always seen.

[Make sure to live… . And let’s meet again. To my beloved hero, Ren.]

“Would you please read more?”

As I looked down, following the soft sound of words, one more line of sentence added below caught my eye. It was a short text written in the same handwriting. Sehyeon read for a while before he opened his mouth.

“… you… .”

There was no way I didn’t know. Because that was written by Sehyeon.

“… “My dearest Rodga.”

[The road that loves you the most.]

That was the sentence written inside it. It was a sentence that I thought about and corrected several times. The traces he left behind to recognize himself came back to Sehyeon after a long journey. The traces are the same.

In the end, the owner of the letter that Renshis always carried in his arms was Sehyeon.

“I always thought the owner of this letter was Rod.”

Renshis laughed happily. The eyes that found the answer conveyed warm feelings. He knew very well what the letter meant to him because he had seen it all along.

Renshis always wanted to find the owner of the letter, and found his own meaning in the traces. He often said in a whisper that he survived his lonely journey with those letters.

“… “What happened to him?”

“According to Lord’s wishes, I served him for the rest of my life and sent him off in peace. always… You were talking about Rod. He said that the brooch you gave him saved his life, and he lived his whole life in gratitude to Lord.”

Renshis spoke vividly as if he had lived that life. He couldn’t believe it. Still, the old man’s figure passed before my vision.

“Maybe that’s why… I feel like I met Rod a little late. The life of serving Him becomes longer… “I had no choice but to face death late.”

Cause and effect were twisted and the past changed. The death that was assigned to Renshis was in the middle of a bloody battlefield. Originally, he should have ended his life at a slightly earlier age. However, as new memories began to overlay the memories of his life, Renshis’ past faced great confusion.

This was why I couldn’t leave the dorm. The aftereffects of memory confusion are significant.

And only today was Lenshis able to organize all his memories and come out. He holds two coexisting memories side by side.
