Episode 188
Winry Machina (2)
When Winry first introduced herself, she said she was Winry Machina, an agent of the ‘real universe’.
At the time, I thought he was just saying it to let people know that he was from somewhere else, but…
‘I should have thought about it at least once.’
The term agent of the ‘real universe’ should have brought to mind the agent of the ‘copy universe’.
Jeong-do blamed himself, but in fact, it was not unreasonable for him not to have thought of that.
‘Why didn’t Winry tell me?’
I never thought I would even mention something like this that is a variable itself.
I thought there must be a reason why she couldn’t tell me.
‘I’ll ask Winry why next time I see her.’
Now I had to overcome the situation in front of me first.
‘What is the purpose?’
Winry from the ‘copy universe’ is staring at her right in front of her nose. I couldn’t guess her intentions.
Additionally, I was worried about Winry from the ‘real universe’ not appearing even at this important moment.
He looked at her with a stern face.
“this. “I’m sorry.”
Winry looked at the frozen face, shrugged her shoulders and said that.
And he continued speaking in a voice full of regret. It was a voice full of emotions that a normal Winry would never have thought about.
“Looking at your reaction, it seems like you’ve already noticed? Truly a miracle from the beginning. “For someone who is good at communication, this kind of prank won’t work, right?”
She said that and snapped her fingers in the air. Then her appearance began to change.
White blonde hair that can be said to be Winry’s symbol.
The hair turned pitch black from the ends.
I could only stare blankly at the scene.
A very short period of time passed and Winry’s hair suddenly turned completely black. It was funny to imagine this in the current situation, but I thought it really suited me well.
Except for the hair color, she looks exactly the same as Winry.
She bowed gracefully, holding both ends of her skirt.
“nice to see you. “I salute you again and salute the ‘Miracle of the Beginning.’”
She smiled brightly and continued speaking.
“Agent of the ‘copy universe.’ “My name is Winry Machina.”
“… … .”
Although it was information I had already confirmed through <Heogongrok>, it was still a shock. Jeong Do opened his mouth, suppressing his pounding heart as much as possible.
“I think we have a lot to talk about.”
“Sure. Mr. Jeongdo. “I have been waiting so long for this moment.”
After saying that, she spun around in place. At that moment, Winry’s mascot maid uniform changed into a black dress.
After checking her outfit, she smiled with satisfaction.
“As expected, those clothes just looked so bad. how is it? “This is much better, right?”
The Winry I knew controlled her emotions as much as possible, but the Winry in front of me expressed her emotions very richly. It was as if Winry was letting out all the emotions she had been suppressing.
“Mr. Jeongdo. “Is there anything you want to say to me when I first meet you?”
“… Where is Winry from ‘The Real Universe’?”
“This question is worse than I imagined. Well, okay. I’ll give you the answer. “Because today is a good day.”
She glared at him with a stern expression. She probably didn’t like it that he mentioned Winry from the ‘real universe’ right in front of her nose.
“She is now bound to the ‘real universe.’ “She probably won’t be able to come for a while.”
“why?”
“well? It looks like some kind of accident occurred. I don’t know the specifics either. I am, after all, an agent of the ‘copy universe’. “I’m not interested in the details of the ‘real universe.’”
Is that really true?
I had a feeling that she was hiding something, but I didn’t ask. It was good in her eyes that even if I asked her, she would avoid answering.
“Why don’t you stop talking about boring women like that and focus on the present? “I’ve been wanting to meet you for so long.”
“Why did you want to meet me?”
“Of course, it’s to fulfill my responsibilities as an agent.”
“Duties?”
Although Jeongdo only asked reflexively, Winry’s subsequent answer had no choice but to open the status window.
“For example, eliminating the ‘miracle of the beginning’ that may destroy the universe’s system?”
“Damn it.”
Crash!
After Jeong Do widened the distance from Winry, he immediately used the Ex-Class Confirmed Load Ticket.
Faaat.
Business cards spread out above my head. However, Winry was faster than the business card falling into Jeongdo’s mind.
“Your reaction is extreme.”
After saying that, she waved her hand in the air once. It was a very simple gesture, but the results it brought about were shocking.
<The agent intervenes in the system.>
<Ticket use has been cancelled.>
“… her.”
Force cancel load.
After acquiring the <Draw> skill, Jeong-do swallowed a groan at the first time he was interrupted.
Despite the extent of her shock, Winry lightly shook her hands as if nothing had happened. And, still smiling brightly, she said to Do.
“Mr. Jeongdo. It’s a joke. I am not waiting to argue with you. “In fact, it’s the opposite.”

“… … .”
fight
Compared to words like struggle or struggle, it was a cute word.
That’s how Winry in ‘Copy Universe’ sees it now. Although his palms were filled with sweat due to his extreme nervousness, Winry saw this level of hostility as nothing more than ‘fighting’.
“I came here to support Jeong Do on behalf of myself in ‘Real Universe.’ The miracle of the beginning. “I hope you achieve what you want.”
Black-haired Winry erased her playful attitude from before and bowed her head politely. I frowned at her unpredictable attitude.
‘Can I trust it?’
Is that possible?
It didn’t seem like he was lying, but it certainly seemed like he was hiding something. As I was looking at her smiling with that meaningful expression, I really wanted to see Winry from ‘The Real Universe’.
‘There are a lot of things I want to ask.’
In particular, I had a lot to ask about <Communication-lv.4>. Do-do glanced at Winry in the ‘Copy Universe’. Still, it was ridiculous to ask that unpredictable being.
“Support. “What specifically can I help you with?”
“Whatever the universe allows. “Whatever she asks, I will surpass her.”
“… “I have no idea why Winry never told me about you.”
“Oh, if that’s the case, it’s not that strange. “She won’t even know I exist.”
“what? What is that… ?”
I looked at her in surprise, but she had already hidden herself.
Although they had no resemblance except for their faces, they were identical in that they disappeared without a trace.
Jeongdo watched the spot where she disappeared for a moment. And soon, we decided on two policies.
Always be on guard against her.
Still, let’s take what we get.
Looking back on the wireless world incident, it was safe to say that there was a 100% chance that he would become entangled with the heavenly world or the demonic world in the future. In the midst of such powerful forces, the difference with or without Winry’s help would certainly be enormous.
After watching where Winry disappeared for the last time, Do-do began to clean up the messy room.
* * * * * *
In ‘Copy Universe’, Winry was immersed in the darkness and remembered the meeting a while ago.
The day has come.
The meeting with the person I had been waiting for.
Although he was more wary than he expected, it was a good thing. This was much better than having my partner, who I would be walking with from now on, be a fool who would just believe anything I said.
And now there was something more bothering me than that. She looked down at her own arms.
Parr.
Her arms were shaking slightly. Although she did her best to hide it from Jeong Do, she was under a lot of pressure from the moment she was forced to cancel <Drawing>.
‘Nonsense.’
No matter how much he is a being who embraces the miracle of the beginning, he is an agent of the universe. He could not be called omniscient, but he was closer to omnipotence than anyone else.
Are you feeling burdened even though you only invalidated one skill? And the other person was only a human who had awakened to the miracle of the beginning for about a year.
She honestly thought that she wouldn’t feel this burden even if she fought a being who possessed all the miracles of the beginning.
Could it be that he is handling the miracle of the beginning better than he expected? Either that or… Does he have powers beyond the miracles of the beginning?
This is unknown at the moment.
‘What do you like?’
In any case, being strong is a good thing. He may still have doubts, but eventually he will be in the same boat as you. She had no doubt about it.
Wow.
I grabbed my trembling arm.
Okay, just a little more. If you endure just a little longer, it can become real.
Winry muttered that and sank into the darkness.
* * * * * *
“I’m dying.”
Jeongdo sat down on the bed and muttered that. She maintained her composure as best as she could in front of her, but her mental strength could not be helped.
After calming down for a moment, Jeong-do quietly muttered.
“Winry.”
But no change occurred. There was no sign of Winry from the ‘real universe’ appearing at all.
As Black Winry said, it seemed like something was wrong with her.
‘I hope nothing happens.’
There’s nothing you can do other than worry.
I felt like it was still a long way off. She was still small compared to him.
‘Let’s become stronger.’
And as if reading my mind, a notification window appeared in front of me.
<A reward is given for loading a transcendental being.>
“Oh right.”
Although he completely forgot about Black Winry’s shocking appearance, he still had the reward of loading Lucifer.
Apart from the fact that something went wrong in the real universe, the <draw> system was working properly.
‘I don’t feel like watching roulette, though.’
However, not receiving roulette rewards is ridiculous. After loading the album on a wired basis, I looked into space.
And soon, two mysterious voices collided in the air.
<Confucius. What else is this?>
“… Why is this here?”
What appeared before my eyes was not roulette. However, it wasn’t an entirely unfamiliar item. The reward that appeared before Jeong-do’s eyes was an item often used in gambling, like roulette.
“Slot machines?”
It was a gambling machine commonly found in casinos.
It was a machine where if you pulled the handle, the roulette wheel on the screen would spin and if you guessed 777, you would win the jackpot.
The only difference between the casino machine and the one in front of you is that instead of 7 and fruit pictures, talent and skills are included.
There was a round button sticking out from the center of the slot machine. I realized this level intuitively. This means that when you press this button, the slot machine operates.
I looked at the slot machine as if it was ridiculous.
“crazy. Oh really. “What’s going on?”
It’s been a pseudo-gambling so far, but this is a real gambling!
A silent scream echoed throughout the room.
