I’m Alone on the 100th Floor Episode 070
21. Time alone (2)
The top thing on my wish list was to have some alone time, but then I move around with a woman who looks at me with sly eyes?
That couldn’t be possible.
Eugene, who had torn off his tail with all his might, moved his fingers to summon a spear.
[Current floor: 18th floor]
Eugene, who had escaped from the 20th floor to the 19th floor and then quickly reached the 18th floor, discovered the Three Musketeers hunting for trials not far away.
‘It’s Mirami’s group.’
Perhaps because Black Rose withdrew from the 19.5th floor, it seemed like there wouldn’t be as many dangerous scenes as there had been before.
‘Wouldn’t it be better if we didn’t run into each other?’
Right now I want to enjoy being alone.
‘Let’s pass by secretly.’
Eugene, who was walking downstairs alone, pushing through the sand, frowned at the wind blowing in front of him.
‘??????huh?’
It wasn’t so much that the wind was tickling my eyes as that something was flying in the wind.
Tub.
Eugene caught a small piece of paper flying overhead and checked it.
“Is this a photo… or a painting?”
Eugene looked at the front and back of the paper, confirming that the piece he had snatched was a portrait of someone.
The paper was desired.
It was worn and creased in places, as if someone had carried it around for a long time.
“What does it say?”
Eugene, who was frowning, muttered the translated text written under the picture.
“Hirahi?” It was the same word in both directions.
If this is a name… If the owner of that name is a portrait drawn on paper… This person.
“Top guy… …
Eugene, who was holding a piece of paper with a portrait of the top man in his hand, suddenly opened his eyes wide.
“??? Wait, Hirahi?”
Eugene, who was mumbling a three-letter name that sounded familiar from somewhere, recalled the information he had heard from his teacher on the 97th floor.
‘When you go down, look for Hirahi.’
‘Hirahi? Who is that?’
‘Top guy… …
‘A top person? Why a top person?’
‘It will help.’
It was a name that the master especially emphasized along with the ‘deer’ on the tower.
I asked him repeatedly why he had asked me to find a man with that name, but I never got an answer.
“He looks kind of gloomy… …
Eugene, who had been muttering while looking at the portrait, narrowed his eyes as he looked around the 18th floor.
“But why is this thing flying around on the 18th floor?”
He had heard that the tower people appeared after the 50th floor, and Eugene, who had actually experienced up to the 77th floor, was certain that the story was not wrong.
however.
It was somehow unsettling that a portrait that could be found 50 stories above was flying around on the 18th floor.
“In the first place, how could the people in the tower have come down below the 50th floor?” Eugene narrowed his eyes and thought of the people in the tower he had met on the 7th floor and the drug guild that had enslaved them.
“Hmm.”
Eugene, who was trying to enjoy some alone time, tilted his head with his fist against his chin.
I felt uneasy.
It was as if I couldn’t show my expression because I felt like I was playing around without finishing my summer homework.
‘I’ll have to find out…
Luckily, this wasn’t a very difficult summer homework assignment.
This was because I had recently come into contact with an answer sheet that could easily solve that vacation homework.
‘Shall we find out?’
Eugene frowned as he recalled the puppeteer he had encountered a little while ago rather than recently.
‘Hey, Mr..’
To start my homework, I turned around and went back to the 20th floor instead of going to the 17th floor.
Had to go.
〈So? You missed it?〉
“I couldn’t help it.”
〈Ugh, damn it! It wasn’t a monster, it was an enemy! It wasn’t enough on the 7th floor, it’s causing trouble on the 20th floor.〉
〈What do we do now?〉
〈Ask around carefully. What is the name of the regressor? Seon Yu-jin?〉
〈It’s the Korean side. Then I have a friend who knows about it.〉
〈A friend you know?〉
〈Hanserin, the black princess of Black Rose… … ?>
〈That person is missing right now.〉
〈Huh? Missing? Why?〉
〈Ha, if I explain it, it will be too long. Find out for yourself.〉
〈Hmm… … .〉 She covered her face with a veil and whispered to a guild member hiding somewhere on the 20th floor.

〈The more I think about it, the more it doesn’t make sense. It’s a strange thing in many ways. How is such a monster still here? And has it been hiding for two years?〉
〈Since you said you were a regressor… there must be endless ways to hide from people’s eyes.〉
〈Damn it! If you were saying that time is of the essence, you should have just gone up to the 50th floor! Why aren’t you going up?〉
〈If you know the strategy for every floor, and even the hidden floors that we don’t know about… then you wouldn’t have to go up early, right?〉
Hashishi, who was whispering with the guild’s warlock, sensed the presence of someone approaching from behind.
〈Wait a minute, there’s a tail attached.〉
〈Huh? Tail? Hey rookie, be careful. You’ll get cut off if you do that?〉
〈I’ll take care of it and come back.〉
Hashishi lowered his hand that had been covering his ear and looked back while manipulating the thread tied to his finger.
“You… … the returning climber you had missed was leaning against the alleyway on the 20th floor, looking this way.
“How? Are you still hungry?”
She had no choice but to react like this, as he, who had disappeared into the ground, was holding on to her as if nothing had happened.
“What are you planning?”
“What is this?”
“He disappeared without ignoring my question, then followed me without a trace… …
“You made a sound?”
“under!”
When he said that he had grabbed me from behind without making a sound and made a sound, I couldn’t help but sigh.
“so?”
Hasishi, who had not yet let his guard down, asked about Eugene’s actions a little while ago.
“Where have you been?”
“It’s a bathroom.”
“lie!”
There was a climber looking for a bathroom at the top, and the ordeal he was having was making him hold his stomach and change his clothes.
“I tell you again, I am not a liar.”
Although he emphasized the three letters ‘lie’, Ha Si-shi was not leisurely enough to notice that.
“People don’t just go to the bathroom to pee or poop. They also go to wash their faces, look in the mirror… there are other reasons too.”
Ha Si-shi, whose expression had crumpled at the clever answer, asked helplessly.
“What is your business?”
The fact that the regressor who had disappeared to avoid me had returned meant that he had business to attend to.
“Just, let’s have a meal together… …
The boy’s eyes trembled slightly at the word ‘together’.
“??? Are you thinking of eating it?”
Hashishi pulled his chin in at Eugene’s words, glanced at the ring on his hand, and opened his mouth.
“great.”
It doesn’t mean we should eat together or something.
She knew that very well.
I wasn’t feeling too good about doing homework when I should have been blissfully solving my to-do list.
The only consolation was that the food served at the 20th floor store wasn’t that bad.
“What is it? Is there anything you want to ask?”
Eugene, who was recalling the food he had eaten on the 20th floor, looked at Hashishi sitting across from him.
“Honestly, if you’re a regressor, wouldn’t it be faster to check for yourself rather than asking me?”
Eugene, who had become a regressor, swallowed the food that was rumbling in his mouth and spoke.
“I wonder how your drugs brought down the top guys?”
Hashishi frowned at the unexpected question and asked back before answering.
“Don’t you already know?”
The seasonal floor where the top people appear is
It was from the 50th to the 89th floor.
Eugene had experienced the 89th to 77th floors since he went down backwards, but he couldn’t easily guess how to send the people in the tower down to 50 floors.
“There’s more than one way to send someone down from the top. I was wondering what method they used.”
Eugene, who pretended to know everything but was not, put on a leisurely expression and put a spoonful of food in his mouth.
“You need to know that so you can adjust your future plans.”
Eugene, who had only briefly shown her the back of the paper he had found on the 18th floor, added to the question’s value.
“If you tell me how, I’ll answer one question you want to ask.”
As Eugene habitually clicked the spoon with his front teeth, Hasishi hesitated briefly and then asked.
“Anything?”
“Well, I can’t give you a definite answer. I’m not the type of person to lie.”
“It has nothing to do with drugs. This is… a very personal question, so I don’t think it will matter?”
To prove it, she wasn’t wearing the whisper accessory exclusive to the Drug Guild.
“Well then, ask first. If it’s a question I can’t answer, I’ll give you another chance.”
As Eugene gave up his turn as if doing a favor, Hashishi, who was pressing his lips together, asked cautiously.
“Have you seen the top of this tower?”
At Hashishi’s question, Eugene briefly pondered while holding the spoon he had been biting with his teeth.
The top of the tower.
I couldn’t tell if that meant the 100th floor here, or three years later when the cataclysm struck…
“yes.”
Here, it seemed better to just answer ‘yes’ rather than ‘no’.
“I saw it.”
As soon as Eugene answered, a ‘Whoosh!’ sound of something pouring out rang out from the entrance of the store.
≪……2”
≪……2”
Eugene and Hashishi’s gaze turned toward the loud noise coming from the entrance.
“… ah.”
The ‘puppy ears’ that caught the attention of all the guests twitched.
“I, I’m sorry.”
Someone in the hooded sweatshirt who had spilled the store’s dinnerware began to speak, looking at the customers’ faces.
“Do what you have to do.”
As Mongmongi Ears hurriedly picked up the dishes that had fallen to the floor and sat down in the empty seat, Hashishi tilted his head.
“Do you know this person?”
I told her over and over again, but Eugene was the type of person who couldn’t lie.
“No. This is my first time seeing it.”
So… that was the first lie.
“…is it so?”
Since his back was to the entrance, Eugene didn’t have time to check that direction, but it seemed like Ha Si-shi was looking in that direction. “Why, he looked surprised when he saw this side… …
Eugene, who knew the reason for the surprised expression, asked while maintaining a poker face.
“Haven’t you seen that? It’s the Drug Guild, right? And there’s a bounty on it?”
“I’m a member of that group, but I’m a rookie (!) who just joined… so I’m not that famous.”
Eugene, who had been making a sullen expression, got up from his seat and glanced at the table where the puppy ears were sitting.
“Well, let me ask you something. Why this way?
“Did you look at it?”
“Oh, no!”
Hashishi quickly reached out and grabbed Eugene’s sleeve.
“It’s okay. I guess it was just my mood.”
It seemed like he didn’t want to ask outright and have it revealed that he was a drug guild member.
Eugene sat down again and looked at the tightly crumpled sleeves as he asked.
“Hey, here’s this… … Hashishi, who had taken his hand away a beat later, clenched and unclenched the outstretched hand and mumbled.
“It wasn’t intentional.”
Eugene clicked his tongue inwardly, straightening his crumpled sleeves.
If it had been a few seconds late, the sparks would have clearly flown due to the absolute domain characteristics.
“Haha, I’m glad that wasn’t intentional.” However, he couldn’t completely relax. Even though the Absolute Domain wasn’t even activated, sparks were flying from the back of his head.
〈Who is it? Who could it be?
