Yoo Ah-ram was editing the videos taken today while Lee Si-woo and Yoon Mir went down to the basement.
“Why are you putting so much effort and effort into it?”
Jitehun was next to Yoo Ah-ram and asked Yoo Ah-ram.
“It could be helpful to Siwoo.”
At those words, Ji Tae-hoon slowly turned his head to look at Selina who was sitting with Choi Seol.
“It’s helpful…” … .”
“Then why do you keep clinging to me?”
“They told me to protect it.”
“me? who?”
In response to Yoo Ah-ram’s question, Ji Tae-hoon thought of the guy who entrusted this annoying task to him.
‘To enter the final gate, Yoo Ah-ram’s role is important. So please take care of Yoo Ah-ram, Ji Tae-hoon.’
“there is. A guy like that.”
Yoo Ah-ram tilted his head and continued to focus on editing.
It took quite some time to edit each video of the candidates who applied to select the seven people who would enter the final gate.
Meanwhile, while watching, Hwang Da-bin recalled what Lee Si-woo showed today.
‘The transfer is a fraud.’
Lee Si-woo’s ability to control fire and ice at the same time, while also using the other person’s talents, was like watching a hero.
“What are you thinking?”
While I was thinking about Lee Si-woo, Kang Ha-rin sat next to Hwang Da-bin.
“It looks like the world has come to an end since you started talking to me.”
“Yes, I guess I also turned around when the world was destroyed. “I’m talking to you.”
Dabin Hwang tilted his head and asked at Harin Kang’s words.
“why are you like this? What’s going on?”
“Dad said so. “I told you not to participate in the candidate competition.”
Kang Ha-rin’s father was Kang Moo-seong, the hero of the Seven.
“why?”
“They say it’s dangerous. “When he was young, he walked around the gate and did all kinds of dangerous things.”
Hwang Da-bin answered those words softly.
“Because they are parents, it must be something like that.”
“hey! It’s not your job… … .”
Kang Ha-rin, who was about to say that she could say such a thing, saw the look in Hwang Da-bin’s eyes and kept her mouth shut.
I remembered something from when I was in middle school.
“I’m sorry.”
“no. Anyway, think about it carefully. “Don’t you want to enter the final gate with Yunmir?”
Hearing Da-bin Hwang’s words, Ha-rin Kang turned her gaze and looked at Tae-hoon Ji.
Kang Ha-rin blushed and said, realizing that she had looked at Ji Tae-hoon without realizing it.
“Everything, of course.”
Dabin Hwang saw that and thought.
‘what? Why are you looking at Ji Tae-hoon and not Yoon Mir? … .’
I heard that I trained with Ji Tae-hoon during vacation, and I wondered if there was something going on with him during that time.
It would have been difficult to do so. Kang Ha-rin always looked at Yoon Mir, but Yoon Mir did not think of Kang Ha-rin as anything more than a childhood friend.
When I thought of Yoon Mir, Lee Si-woo suddenly came to mind.
‘What a guy… … .’
When she first met, the guy she thought was just a pervert had suddenly changed to a point where she couldn’t get over him.
I thought that if I could surpass Yoon Mir, I would be able to be first among the students, but that wasn’t the case.
Dabin Hwang looked around.
Each person here was an awakened person who would later take on the future of the world.
‘Can I receive the public’s choice?’
It was not yet known whether she would be selected as one of the seven people who would enter the final gate or not.
However, Hwang Da-bin did not want to lose.
Dabin Hwang clenched his fists. He also had nothing to lose.
Living up to her name as the guild leader of the Reviving Guild and the disciple of the Hero of the Seven, Yoo Da-hee, she also planned to do her best.
9.
I went down to the basement and looked at the two awakened people who were looking at me with bloodshot faces.
The reason they were like that was all because of me.
“What do you want to check?”
I didn’t respond to Master’s words, but looked at Yoo Jeong-hyeon and Jamie.
Then their status window appeared before my eyes.
[Yoo Jeong-hyeon]

These two guys are definitely the mainstays of Rebellions.
From what I remember, I knew that branch leaders shared a minimum amount of information with each other.
‘All important decisions were made by the first branch manager, but information was passed on.’
If so, these two would definitely know where the ‘key’ is, even if only roughly.
‘And it is more likely that Jamie, who is smarter than Yoo Jeong-hyeon, knows that information.’
After remembering where the key was found in the first and second rounds, I began to organize questions to ask them both.
“Lee Si-woo?”
“yes. I was gathering my thoughts for a moment. “Can I ask you a few questions?”
“okay.”
Yoo Jeong-hyeon and Jamie were glaring at me.
“Do you think we’ll answer you?”
“You’d better answer.”
After saying that, I took a breath and asked Jamie the first question.
“I don’t want a long answer. Yes No. Please answer only. Rebellions 5th Branch Head, Jamie. Do you know the whereabouts of the key?”
I flinch.
Jamie, who didn’t expect his name to be called, flinched when he saw me.
“I do not know.”
In response, I held out my hand to Jamie’s face.
Jamie, who had been giving me a questioning look when I suddenly held out my hand, opened his eyes brightly when he saw something appear in my hand.
“yes… “You guy, how do you do this?!”
I opened my mouth again after using Jamie’s talent ‘Magic Circle’.
“I will ask again. Jamie, do you know where the keys are?”
gulp.
Jamie swallowed dryly. Since he has a quick mind, he must be figuring out what kind of magic the magic circle I activated contains.
Actually, I didn’t even know what kind of magic would appear in this magic circle.
This was my first time using Jamie’s talent like this.
But Jamie wouldn’t think so.
Among the many magics, there was a magic that could detect the other person’s lies, and there was also a magic that read the other person’s memories.
This guy must be wondering what kind of intention I had for throwing the magic circle at him.
“I don’t know!”
Flash!
“Aaaah!”
“Jamie!!”
In response to Jamie’s answer, what came out of the magic circle was Electric Thunder.
“Lee Si-woo?!”
“what are you doing?!”
“Wait a minute.”
The seven heroes shouted when they saw my actions, but Choi Kang blocked the others’ shouts.
I waited until Jamie, who had been electrocuted, came to his senses before speaking.
“You know. “Where is the key?”
Jamie’s pupils shook at my words.
Looking at that reaction, it seemed like there was a rough guess.
Looking at that, I held out my other hand once again and asked the next question.
“There is a saying that it is dark under the lamp. “The material of the key is within reach if you stretch out your hand, right?”
Jamie closed his eyes and answered my question.
She seemed scared as the magic circle waved in front of her face, but I could tell she wasn’t scared.
“okay. The key is nearby. now… “Kill him.”
At those words, I took my hand back and turned my attention to Choi Kang.
“Question finished.”
“???”
“What, the key is nearby?”
“So where is it?!”
“Did you find out?”
“no. “These two probably don’t know the exact location of the key either.”
Yoon Ga-on tilted his head at my words.
“what? So the question I’ve been asking so far is… … .”
“I saw the reaction. “I saw what kind of attitude these guys had when answering my questions.”
Jamie’s eyes widened again at my words.
“You bastard… … .”
As Jamie glared at me, Yunmir intervened.
“Now it’s my turn. I heard there is a Dragon Warrior in Rebellions. “Where is he now?”
Yoo Jeong-hyeon shouted in response to Yoon Mir’s question.
“Would you like to teach me? Hehe!”
Sigh!
Yoon Mir blocked Yoo Jeong-hyeon’s spit with the tail that protruded from his lower body.
In response, Yoon Mir curled up the corner of his mouth.
“You mean you know.”
“Mir! stop!”
“I’m sorry, but I need to hear an answer even if it means tearing these guys’ mouths apart.”
Choi Kang said upon seeing that.
“It looks like Siwoo has figured out the whereabouts of the key, so let’s go upstairs and talk about it in detail.”
As expected, he was the quickest and strongest.
The other seven heroes looked uncomfortable, but followed Choi Kang’s words, and we exited the basement, leaving Yoon Mir and Yoon Ga-on in the basement.
“Would it be okay?”
“Someone had to do it anyway. “More than that, I want you to tell me what you found out.”
In response to Choi Kang’s question, I began to tell Jamie what I had found out.
10.
Of course, I’m not a detective, and there was no way I could find out the whereabouts of the key from them using the method I just used.
So what I checked was how much the information I knew was different from the present.
The conditions for entering the final gate were the same for the first and second rounds.
The ‘key’ that opens the final gate.
Finding that was the first step.
In the first round, the first branch leader of Rebellions had the key, and in the second round, Choi Kang found the key.
Of course, the time when I found the key in the first time and the time when I found the key in the second time were slightly different.
However, the location where both keys appeared was the same.
Even now, two years ago, I had no idea where the key was and where it was, but it seemed like the Rebellions might have even minute information, so I interrogated Jamie persistently.
‘The important thing is that the appearance of the key ultimately took place in one place.’
Although it was unknown who had it, there was a high probability that the key would appear there.
I said while looking back at Choi Kang.
“First of all, the reason I knew the name of the woman named Jamie was because during the fight, I heard the guy next to me call her name.”
Other people nodded at what I said.
“The second reason I asked them if they knew where the key was was to find out if they actually knew where the key was.”
“So what is the result?”
As Yoo Da-hee said, I continued speaking.
“Yes, Jamie certainly seemed to have a rough guess about the key’s location. So, finally, I asked a question based on Jeong Ju-won’s information and the location of the key I expected.”
“It is dark under the lamp. “What does that mean?”
“If you were one of the Seven Heroes, if you had something important, where would you hide it?”
The seven heroes thought for a moment and answered my question.
“I will hide it in a place where no one knows and only I know.”
“Send it somewhere out of my reach?”
“Disguise it like an ordinary object?”
At Kang Yeon-geum’s words, I smiled and said,
“All of the answers you just gave are correct. Jamie said the key was nearby. As she said that, she closed her eyes. She did that because she didn’t want to show that her pupils were shaking. This is most likely a lie. Assuming that the Rebellions got their hands on the key first, they would have wanted to send it to a place known only to them and out of our reach. By disguising it as an ordinary object.”
“So where is it?!”
With those words, I told the seven heroes about the information I had received from Jeong Ju-won.
