[Side Story] What if she was in the dark?! (If story)
This article is an If story about “The Right Path (2)-1,” which was strengthened through the lottery. In other words, it is a side story. For readers who have not read The Right Path (2), please read the main story first and then enjoy the spin-off. You may be spoiled if you do not read [the main story] first. Please note that the beginning of the article in [Side Story] and [Main Story] are the same.

“She is essential to our planet. “Please lend me your strength.”
Kako said that and bowed her head again. She was extremely courteous, but unfortunately she did not reach the degree.
Because Jeong-do decided to be considerate and ignore her request?
It wasn’t.
Jeongdo was momentarily dazed by the thoughts that struck his mind.
‘SS class was taken hostage?’
And it was so one-sided that you couldn’t even do anything about it?
The second cataclysm caused power inflation much more than anyone had imagined. If what Princess Kako said is true, she would be the only person on the entire planet who could handle that monster.
‘And the second cataclysm is just beginning.’
There will be many dungeons that will be created in the future, and some of them, although rare, will be more dangerous than the one that occurred in Japan. And the only person who can handle that dungeon is yourself. Because the current users of Earth were unable to keep up with the power inflation of the second cataclysm at all.
But assuming that’s the case.
Wouldn’t it be natural for the future Earth to be destroyed?
Even if you are strong enough to stop such a dungeon, you are only one person.
One hand cannot handle ten hands.
No matter how hard I tried, there was a limit to the number of dungeons I could block alone. Someday, while Jeongdo is blocking one dungeon, another dungeon will explode.
That’s how it is. So two. So three.
Monsters that no one can stop except themselves will begin to appear on Earth one by one.
That was the end.
If it’s a monster that even SS-level users can’t stop, modern firearms other than nuclear weapons can’t handle it. However, using nuclear weapons on every monster that pops out through the brakes will only hasten the destruction of the Earth.
In other words, the moment when a monster that even SS-level users cannot stop appears.
The end of the Earth, sooner or later, was predicted.
But I knew this much. That the future Earth will not perish.
<Information Draw>
I was able to know information about the future through my skills. That means the future exists. Because the Earth, which has already disappeared, cannot provide information.
“… … .”
If we analyze the future based on the current situation, it is certain that the Earth will be destroyed.
However, <Information Draw> means that the future Earth exists.
What exactly happened to this contradiction?
‘One of the two must be wrong.’
Or maybe both were wrong.
The judgment that the Earth would be destroyed in the future was based entirely on Princess Kako’s words. However, there was still no evidence that Princess Kako’s words were true.
It was her misunderstanding that SS-level user Joan of Arc was kidnapped. Or there was a possibility that it was a lie. In this case, it’s fortunate. The problem is that it ends with just her.
But what if we assume that <information extraction> is wrong?
Jump up!
As my thoughts reached that point, I stood up from my seat with a stiff expression on my face. And he spoke to Princess Kako.
“sorry. It’s difficult to make a judgment right now. “I think I need to take some time alone to think.”
“no. Rather, I am sorry for asking for an unreasonable request. “I have no intention of forcing you, so please feel free to answer.”
Although her complexion was dark, she smiled and said that. Jeong Do bowed his head slightly to her and Hae Joon and quickly walked out of her living room.
thud.
Jeong Do closed the living room door and walked down the hallway, lost in thought.
There is a possibility that <Information Drawing> was incorrect.
To be honest, I didn’t think that would be the case. Because all of the future information he had selected, such as the treasure dungeon and skill dungeon, was exactly correct.
but.
Just as there is a possibility that Princess Kako misunderstood that <Saint> was kidnapped.
Isn’t there a possibility that you too may be ‘misunderstanding’ about <Information Draw>?
Jeong-do’s walking became even faster, and his thinking also became faster as well.
From the day I acquired the skill until today.
Numerous information draws were conducted. There are currently about 800 pieces of information occupying my information box. I erased everything that I thought was really useless and collected information that I thought was still somewhat valuable.
Information deleted because it was useless.
Information kept because it is useful.
Although there was a difference in the quality of information, the two types of information had something in common.
This means that only information related to ‘themselves’ appears.
Information about the cat next door, or the future president of Korea.
Only information directly or indirectly related to oneself came out of the lottery. And I took this for granted. Since it was a skill he used, he decided that only information related to him would come out.
But what if this is a misunderstanding?
Actually, the world of the future.
Wouldn’t this be a world where one struggles alone to protect the Earth from extinction?
When I thought about it that way, everything fell into place.
The future Earth has been completely destroyed except for the area within one’s reach. The best he can do on his own is to protect the Korean Peninsula. It was natural that information could not be obtained from foreign countries that had been destroyed.
I was almost running now and walked to the workshop. Before I knew it, I was standing in front of the door.
“Whew. Phew.”
As suspicion arose, information came flooding in all at once.
The things Winry said to Jeongdo every time.

“The real universe will never do anything that could harm you.”
“The real universe will support you with all its might.”
When I heard it at the time, I felt like I was just a grateful person who thought of me, but now I feel a little different.
“Mr. Jeongdo. Mr. Jeongdo. Dear Jeong Do.”
Everything Winry said and did was focused on Jeong-do.
In other words.
For the real universe and Winry.
It also meant that everything else except the degree didn’t matter.
‘no. That’s good enough.’
Perhaps the ‘real universe’ might be doing its best to support Jeongdo, as Winry said.
Even if that method accelerates the destruction of everything except Jeongdo.
Numerous enemies and <crisis information> that Jeong-Do has encountered so far.
In fact, isn’t it actually an arrangement for the level prepared by the universe? Jeongdo said to Ixia as he felt goosebumps forming on his forearms.
“Ixia. You know what I think, right? what do you think about it?”
<… I’m confused. I don’t dare to judge with my senses.>
“okay. “You can check it out.”
It could be that he was thinking something wrong. Perhaps, thanks to being the second person in the history of the universe to possess <Communication-lv.3>, he may be suffering from the protagonist’s disease where the world revolves around him.
Jeong Do opened the status window and used the <Information Draw> skill.
He has now overcome Delaf’s ordeal and has rapidly become stronger. And quite by coincidence, a monster that even SS-class users cannot attack is said to have appeared in a nearby neighboring country.
If the true purpose of the universe was to support Jeong-do, there was no way he would pass up this opportunity. The real universe will offer trials and rewards. Kindly refer to <Crisis Information>.
I used the skill without hesitation.
“haha.”
I looked into space and laughed.
red beads.
As expected, crisis information appeared once again.
<Understand the truth about the abnormal dungeon that occurred in Japan. The exact coordinates are… >
‘Now that I think about it, Winry said that. If my rank goes up, I’ll be able to hear a lot of things.’
To meet Winry, you need to clear <Crisis Information>. If you do that, you will be able to hear as much as she said.
“You have to answer me properly this time. Winry.”
I muttered that while feeling a strange pounding that I had never felt before.
next day.
Jeong Do boarded a plane heading to Japan.
.

.
.
Jeongdo stood in front of Winry with a completely battered body. She was still looking at Jeongdo, showing off her noble appearance. I only realized the extent now. What she knew was so insignificant.
“Winry. a few. “I want to ask you something.”
Jeongdo tried to calm his trembling voice and opened his mouth.
“The first day I visited Hae-joon’s house last time. Was it your intention to stop the clock and put me through Delaf’s ordeal?”
“of course.”
Winry answered with a smile.
“Recently loaded Hercules, Guan Yu, ooo. They all had the talent of <Xinwi>. “Is this also intended to make me a god?”
“of course.”
Winry answered with a smile.
“… finally.”
After converting King Jeongdo into Bangcheonhwageuk. He grabbed the pole of the spear and opened his mouth.
“What are you going to do if I refuse to be God?”
Winry just smiled without saying anything in response to the question.
That is.
It was the last thing I remember as a ‘human being’.
