How to Survive as a Player Chapter 210

#210

Surprised gazes all turned to Lee Jae-young. Jaeyoung Lee was looking at his empire reflected in the mirror with an unknown gaze.

There was no sign of anxiety or nervousness, much less worry, on his face.

“… brother.”

“Tell me, Jaeyoung.”

“I think I’ll have to go alone this time.”

The eyes staring blankly into the distance denied the Lee Jae-young I had always known. It was an unfamiliar profile. And she had an unfamiliar accent.

“You better not go.”

Even though he spoke with emphasis on each word, his speaking tone was slow and low. Sehyun had to make a choice here. Even if Sehyun was missing, there were definitely people who could take his place.

However, the target was also determined. At most, it was the engineering empire Fen and the protection empire Theo.

But neither of them will go this time. Fan had a lot of alliance-related work left to Agatha, and Theo, the protective empire, was still an empire that was not actively cooperating. There was no way I could go.

“So this time, my kids and I will go alone.”

“Jaeyoung.”

Jaeyoung Lee also knew that. It was a place surrounded by monsters. Unless you were a machine like Fan or someone with a hard shell like the Protectorate Empire, you would only end up as prey for the Monster Empire’s vassals.

The moment Sehyeon steps into the world of his embodiment, his body will be torn apart without form and die.

“Why don’t you trust him?”

It was then that someone cut through the heavy atmosphere and spoke. At the end of the line of sight was Tyra, the white-robed empire, smiling. It was a smile that was so gentle that it felt prickly.

“He will do well. “As far as I know, that’s it.”

There was confidence in his calm words. It was worth knowing. What she was referring to was probably the Archduke’s dream.

“Is that also the Archduke’s dream?”

“well. But I know you shouldn’t go. And that your child will do better than you think.”

“Tira.”

“yes.”

“Then I think you know what I’m going to say.”

Sehyun had the same smile on her face. The Archduke’s dream was not as perfect as Tyra made her believe.

The Grand Duke’s dream was ‘a dream that becomes reality when achieved.’ In other words, to put it the other way around, it also meant that if something doesn’t come true, it won’t become reality.

If the Archduke’s dream had been reproduced exactly as it was, there was no way to explain the cause of the fall of the planets from the 1st to the 42nd.

Ruhak had clearly mentioned that Sehyun’s previous planet had an empire that matched the Archduke’s dream. Like Sehyun, he came in first place, but in the end he couldn’t achieve his dream.

The Archduke’s dreams may coincide to a certain extent, but they do not encompass everything. Ruhak dreamed of the 90th floor, but all he saw were scenes that missed crucial clues.

[Dreams show very fragmentary things, so they cannot become a perfect one. Unfortunately, all I have seen are scenes from the beginning and end of destruction.]

That was exactly what Ruhak said at the time.

In the end, it was said that it was up to the road players to bear the consequences in critical situations.

“Tira’s dream will not be a perfect one.”

“That sounds good.”

Tyra did not deny it. She had some idea as to why she could not directly mention her archduke’s dream. There was a high probability that the restrictions on the ‘annihilation’ of the Archduke would have been transferred.

Sehyeon believed that the restriction that the Grand Duke could not mention his dreams was a protection measure for the authority of the Lord Players.

To ensure the uniqueness and autonomy of road players’ ‘choices’, or because the dream should not be the basis for road players’ choices.

Therefore, the Grand Duke can only make choices based on the King’s decision based on the ‘Grand Duke’s Dream’ and does not mention this.

“Did you say Sehyeon? “If it’s not rude, may I say something?”

Tyra tucked her long hair behind her ear and made eye contact with Sehyun. And she asked politely.

“Please speak.”

“You are currently mistaken. It would not be right to conclude that you are the only one who resembles the Archduke’s dream. “It may not be as much as you, but there are certainly people in this world who are close to the Archduke’s dream.”

“It sounds like Tyra is one of them.”

“There are others besides me. The person who matches the most in this world after you. You never know. “Right now, I might be closer to the Archduke’s dream than you are.”

Tyra’s gaze shifted to Agatha. Sehyeon’s gaze also shifted to Agasa.

Agatha neither denied nor affirmed. She just stared at her Tyra with her mouth tightly shut.

“Oh, and I’m not your enemy. “I hope you know that.”

“Are you going to cooperate with the achievement?”

It was Baek Do-hyeon who intercepted Tyra’s answer instead of Se-hyeon. Even after a few days, Baek Do-hyeon still had a haggard look on his face, as if his illness had not subsided. In addition, perhaps because of the aftermath of the skills he used inside the tower, or if there was something else, he had not left his empire since returning from the tower.

“I think we are still providing enough cooperation, don’t you think?”

“Cooperation? Does a facade count as cooperation?”

Baek Do-hyeon’s dark eyes turned to the kings of the Bangho Empire and the Iron Palace Empire. Baek Do-hyun let out a laugh and glared at Tyra one last time.

“It’s a facade. Mr. Theo and Mr. Hume will actively cooperate with the Choun Alliance in the future. Right, you two?”

Tyra looked at Theo and Hume with a gentle smile. It was a friendly tone, but there was pressure inside.

“Haona Tira…” .”

“Mr. Theo. Our goals are clearly the same as those of the Choun Alliance. “Don’t forget this.”

Theo and Hume frowned for a moment as if they were reluctant, but eventually nodded with mixed expressions. From that point on, the wariness they showed disappeared like a lie.

Only then did T-Ri smile at Baek Do-hyeon. The look in his eyes was clear, as if he was satisfied. She had her composure, her will, and her determination to achieve it.

But she was overconfident.

“Are we done now?”

One day, Tira will be strangled by that overconfidence. But there was no reason for Sehyun to tell me this.

“Let’s go first.”

Sehyeon turned his back without saying anything. Amidst the countless gazes following us, a friendly voice left a final greeting.

“If you need my strength, please come to me anytime. “I can help you and everyone else.”

“Even if that were the case, I wouldn’t go looking for Tyra first. “I don’t know if it’s the other way around.”

Tyra’s words were ignored as people started turning their backs one by one. Tyra stood there and did not move until the people torn into various pieces disappeared from the space.

When the scattered footsteps disappeared, only two people remained by Tyra’s side. There are only two people: a man with dark undereye eyes and a man high enough to look up to.

Tyra first gently made eye contact with the man in front of her.

“I knew you would come.”

The man didn’t say anything. But soon she clenched and unclenched her teeth and opened her mouth. The words were mixed with her heavy breathing.

“There is something to be gained. How to get it… “Do you know?”

“You seem desperate.”

“I asked if you knew how.”

Man, no. Baek Do-hyeon’s voice suddenly lowered. Tyra looked at that figure for a moment, then lowered her voice and answered.

“It won’t be easy.”

“I never thought it would be easy in the first place.”

“This is going to be a long story, so let’s change places. Come visit our empire anytime. “If you want it, I will do whatever it takes to help you.”

The resolute eyes were different from before when they were smiling. With a strange gaze, Tyra stretched out her hand toward Baek Do-hyeon’s desperation.

“I will help you gain the strength to fight it, Baek Do-hyun.”

Baek Do-hyun and Tyra had similar eyes. Although the goal was the same, the ‘similar purpose’ with different desires was in each other’s eyes. They made a cold-hearted choice to use each other.

And another person who watched in silence.

It was Agatha who stayed behind for the purpose of escorting Tyra. At the end of her high gaze, Agatha looked down with concern.

This time too, Agatha’s choice was silence. Her deeply closed eyes erased the image of the two people from before her eyes.

***

It was a night with heavy rain for the first time in a long time. Sehyun, looking at the steamy window, remembered what happened during the day and let out a long sigh.

[The second embodied empire on the 91st floor is the ‘Monster Empire’.]

Until now, when he returned to the Empire, Lee Jae-young had not received any contact from Se-hyeon. It wasn’t just Jaeyoung Lee. Baek Do-hyun was also unable to communicate, and no one could talk about this incident.

Just looking at the fan he threw out saying, “I don’t know,” it was obvious that he wasn’t participating in this attack. The only one left was Theo of the Protective Empire, and even if he willingly went, it was doubtful whether Jaeyoung Lee would allow it.

Sehyeon couldn’t go. Because the compatibility itself does not match at all.

“What are you thinking like that?”

As Sehyeon was deep in thought, a thick cloth was placed over her shoulders. When I turned around in surprise, there was Ruhak with a red glow, as if stained by candlelight.
