The Main Characters That Only I Know Chapter 263

# The main characters only I know episode 264

The group returned to the hideout and discussed how to escape from here.

“But no matter how I look at it, I don’t think defeating the Abnormality will satisfy the clear conditions here.”

“I agree with that. In this case, the system would have to decide what to do, but even the system is not working.”

“This is a problem.”

You can only get the clue to clear it by progressing through the story of the world of thought.

However, in this place created from someone’s memory, it was difficult to even figure out the clear conditions.

Even the Genesis system, which had provided some guidance, is now disabled.

Naturally, everyone’s eyes turned to Yuhyeon.

Since it was a place created from his memories, I was hoping that Yuhyeon would know about it.

“Yoohyeon. “Do you have any guesses?”

“yes. This world of thought was created based on my memories. If we had to consider the clear conditions, it would be correct to overcome the source of the nightmare.”

So what overcomes the source of nightmares? What is the fundamental object of Yoohyeon’s nightmare in this world?

“It is virtually impossible to eliminate the source of nightmares. For me, the nightmare was this world itself. “It’s not enough for us to wipe out the entire world.”

No one disagreed with that statement.

Watching the fight that took place today, everyone was feeling that this world of thought was not easy.

This is a world where even outcasts who seem to be nothing have power comparable to that of a high-level collector.

Fighting against a world like this was tantamount to suicide.

“Then maybe it’s good?”

“The way to overcome is not necessarily to eliminate the source of nightmares.”

“then… … .”

“yes. We just have to stay still, survive in this world and spend our time. Surviving without dying is enough to overcome. And if my prediction is correct, it will probably be over soon as long as we get through the harvest of this fruit and the trials that follow.”

All you have to do is do nothing and endure.

It might be easy to hear, but considering the background they live in, it was not an easy task at all.

If someone I didn’t know had fallen into this place, they would have died before they could survive for a few hours.

‘But I know everything. What kind of place is this? What happens next? And what kind of people are around here.’

Yoohyeon’s role in the end was to collect information and procure data. He has always been on the move, meeting people and contacting them to collect information.

Ironically, this place, closer than death, was much more familiar than my hometown where I had lived for a long time.

“The 98th trial itself won’t be bad because there won’t be any conflict if you don’t step forward. At this time, Exodos tellers are calm and people are only focused on finding the fruit. “We just need to stay still.”

“is that so?”

“And soon the sun sets. At night, it is time for ferocious monsters to roam outside. “If you don’t have the skill to hide, even a high-level collector can be a meal in the pan, so you have to be careful.”

Kang Hye-rim trembled at those words.

She was proud that she had become strong enough, but Yoohyeon said that her level was common in this world.

Realizing that there were still more levels above my head, I felt somewhat lost.

It was the same for Kwon Ji-ah.

It was not a very good feeling to directly experience an ordeal that I could not achieve myself through someone else’s past.

“I’ll just sleep for today. “The real story of the ordeal begins tomorrow.”

After finishing the conversation, everyone went to bed.

As I traveled through the world of Sasang, there were times when I naturally ended up sleeping in places I didn’t want to be. As we got used to that, everyone fell asleep without any discomfort.

And so the first night of nightmare passed.

* * *

The next morning.

The sky was full of dark clouds and the sun could not be seen rising or setting, but everyone was aware that it was morning.

Because the shapes of things that exist under the sky are visible to the eyes.

If it’s clear, it’s broad daylight. If it’s cloudy, it’s night.

That was the only criterion by which the survivors divided time.

Yoo-hyeon and his companions, who had eaten breakfast with what little food they had, planned to spend their time leisurely, but their plan was thwarted when an unexpected guest came.

“nice to meet you.”

A man looks at me and smiles in a friendly way.

The moment she saw that, Yoohyeon’s face hardened, and Kang Hye-rim, Kwon Ji-ah, and Seo Su-min had strange expressions.

Because the man in front of me was none other than Kang Yu-hyeon, who exists in this ideological world.

It was a darker and sharper impression than the softer Yoohyeon she is now.

[I said I saw that smile a lot somewhere… … .]

Baekryun muttered without realizing it, looking at Yoohyeon from the past.

[That’s the smile you always make when you’re making dark plans.]

Yuhyeon might have said something to White Lotus, but she didn’t have time to do so now.

‘Why on earth is my past self here?’

This was an unprecedented flow of events, but Yoohyeon was soon able to understand why things were happening this way.

‘Right. If that were me in the past, there would be no way I would just look at our group now and ignore it.’

In the past, Yoohyeon tried to find out everything under the belief that there should be nothing he didn’t know.

In the eyes of the past self, the present self that should not have existed existed in the first place, so their contact was ultimately inevitable.

“My name is Kang Yu-hyeon. What is the name of the leader of your group?”

“I am… … .”

Yoohyeon did not lose her composure even in strange situations where it felt like she was talking to herself in the mirror.

“My name is Kang Ji-su. nice to meet you.”

“You are Jisu. Jisoo, where are you from? “I don’t think he’s usually seen around here.”

“I came up from the region down there.”

“Hmm. “Why did you come to Seoul?”

To the question that was raised with blatant suspicion about this, Yuhyeon answered with the feeling that she was like that in the past.

“Is there a reason? “As I was trying to survive, I moved naturally, and then word of the savior reached me and I came here.”

“… … .”

I could see my past self’s expression hardening at the word savior.

Of course, it was just a moment, but there was no way the real Yoohyeon could not see it.

‘It’s obvious what I’m thinking at this time.’

The savior that Yuhyeon spoke of was none other than Choi Do-yoon.

Rumors about a man who can easily overcome any challenge even in the apocalypse have already spread throughout the world.

The survivors began to idolize him excessively, hoping that by following him they would be able to survive in this world.

So Choi Do-yoon unintentionally received the title of savior.

‘That’s funny. A guy like that is a savior.’

This is a person who does not see fellow humans as human beings, but evaluates them purely based on their value. Good guy or bad guy, it didn’t matter to him. There are only two options: useful or not.

How did such a man earn the title of savior, the embodiment of altruism? Wouldn’t it be better if Hwang Se-eun next to him received that title?

That kind of dissatisfaction was also something that I continued to harbor about the past that was right in front of me.

So, he must have felt quite offended when he deliberately mentioned a savior.

‘Because at that time, I had a strong sense of inferiority.’

Even if you didn’t try to show it on the outside, it was bound to be noticeable. She knew it better than anyone else, especially since it was her own business.

Yoohyeon, who had worked hard to change her expression to a bright one, spoke while managing her expression.

“ha ha ha. You said so. Well, Jisoo might think so.”

“Now that I think about it, I understand that Yoohyeon was in the same party as the savior.”

“Same party… … no. “I’m just stuck there.”

“Is that so?”

It wasn’t a very good feeling for Yoohyeon to see herself laughing self-deprecatingly.

The two had a light conversation like that.

It was close to asking a one-sided question that revealed Yoohyeon’s true intentions in the past, but Yoohyeon did not let that happen and strongly expressed that she had no particular agenda.

“Nice to meet you.”

“yes. “I also feel fortunate to have met someone I can communicate with like this in the end.”

Recognizing that there was no particular danger here, Yoohyeon of the past left the hideout.

The group who had been quietly watching the situation from behind approached.

Kang Hye-rim said in an excited voice.

“and. That’s how Yoohyeon felt back in the day. “There was something sharper than now and something that stimulated my protective instinct.”

“hmm. “If you think about the sly look on your face right now, there was definitely something immature about you.”

“I felt impatience somewhere. “It’s definitely a fresh look you don’t see from this man.”

Most of it was an evaluation of Yoohyeon of the past.

Yuhyeon felt embarrassed for no reason and rolled her eyes.

“Everyone, in that situation, why am I showing my old self?”

“yes? That’s because I’m curious. “If not now, when will I have the chance?”

“I admit it. “It’s a rare opportunity.”

“Honestly, I want to keep it as a record forever.”

“… … That’s it. Anyway, the schedule was a little different than I thought, but it wouldn’t be a bad thing for now. “Let’s get out now.”

Yoohyeon said that and encouraged her companions to prepare to leave.

Kwon Ji-ah frowned.

“You’re going out? “Didn’t I say you had to stay still?”

“That happened yesterday. Today is the day. I said you have to stay still, but that doesn’t mean you have to stay in one place. “If you stay here, you won’t participate in the fight.”

“Uh, isn’t it safe here too? “I don’t think there’s any need to move.”

“So, I guess you guys don’t know. “Look at this wall.”

Yoohyeon pointed to one wall of the underground parking lot. There was a crack like a spiderweb there.

Obviously, it was something that didn’t exist until yesterday.

“Do you see the crack here? This is why you need to move. There is no such thing as a permanent hideout in this world. “If we stay here for a day, this place will fulfill its role and disappear.”

It was a special measure created by the Exodos tellers in response to humans who would put the ordeal behind them and just stay in a safe place.

If you stay in one place for more than 24 hours, the hideout will run out of durability and collapse, and a large phantom will be created in its place.

And, this large Abnormality is a monster that can reduce even advanced collectors to a meal.

It was said that if you try to stay in one place without moving around, you will definitely die.

The expressions of the three people hardened after hearing that explanation.

“This is a bit too much. “You have to keep moving around without stopping.”

“It’s a truly terrible place where you can’t even get a moment’s rest.”

“So it’s moving. And aren’t you curious too? “What was I really like in the past?”

When Yoohyeon spoke first, everyone looked at her with puzzled looks.

The person who was least likely to say that in this situation said that.

“I understand that reaction, but what did I say? “This world of thought must overcome the nightmare.”

“What on earth does that nightmare have to do with seeing yourself in the past?” … ah.”

Overcoming the nightmare of the past meant that you had to look at all the failures and mistakes you made in the past and endure them.

There was a good reason why the 98th ordeal out of countless trials was chosen as the Sasang World.

This is because this ordeal is the most painful and terrible memory in Yuhyeon’s life.

Knowing that, no one could hastily say anything to Yuhyeon.

“Let’s go. It’s a bit weird to say it myself, but back in the day, I was very fast on my feet. If you don’t move now, you’ll miss it.”

“Yoohyeon. you… … .”

Kwon Ji-ah tried to speak but stopped.

She wanted to ask how she could be so calm.

There was no way I would be able to look back on my own trauma being recreated with a sober mind.

Kang Hye-rim and Seo Su-min also felt the same way.

When Shamat used the Jinsin Sari, they all faced their past selves.

The pain at that time was so terrible that when I try to recall it now, I still feel like my heart is being squeezed.

However, this man had no hesitation in facing his past self.

“Because it’s necessary.”

Yuhyeon put an end to all these worries with just one word.

“necessary… … Day?”

“It’s hard. Anyone can do it. It would be a lie to say that it is not difficult for me. Still, the reason I move is because I know I have to do it even if it’s hard. I learned that in this world. “You have to do it even if you don’t like it, and you have to move forward even if it’s painful.”

That was definitely something he didn’t want.

This is because the world pushed an ordinary young man to his limits and made him like that.

Still, Yoohyeon did not deny her past.

Rather, I felt the need to face it properly at least once.

Because I couldn’t let the nightmare remain a nightmare forever.

“So, let’s go. “To chase after the foolish me.”

The nightmare had to be overcome.
