Chapter 288
Episode 288: A hasty move
[Gateway creation]
Giiiiiiing-
After crossing the dimensional gateway created in space, I was instantly transported to Paju.
Vasilisa you see in front of you.
I used my magic power to throw myself away, and almost broke Vasilisa’s door.
“Tudor! Tudor!”
“Oh, honey? You’ve arrived just in time. How do I look?”
Tudor with a plausible pose.
I don’t know what she was doing, but she wasn’t wearing her usual witch outfit, but a nice suit. Her face is even wearing horn-rimmed glasses with a somewhat exaggerated design.
Oh, I’m so busy. What on earth do you want to do?
“cool. the best. But aren’t the glasses a bit excessive? I think it would look better without a rim. And please arrange for just one car. By secure taxi.”
“Secure taxi? Where are you going? And please take a look at Fanny, too.”
Tudor stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Fanny’s cafe.
A girl with a large lantern instead of a head is serving in a flashy classical maid uniform.
Oh, it’s going to spin.
Although the mechanism is not yet understood, Fanny is probably a [Mountain Predator] that has lost its status as a being of the abyss and has fallen into ruin.
How did the imposing [Mountain Predator] end up like that?
“Tudor- Is it okay to harass me like that? And please be the person who can move to Ansan the fastest. “Speed rather than skill.”
“Who is harassing whom? “I wore it because Fanny wanted it.”
I don’t know how he was feeling because he couldn’t make any facial expressions with the lantern attached to his head, but he didn’t seem to be in a very good mood.
No, not this.
“Ah, kinda! Tudor, I’m in a hurry!”
“Honey, calm down. Is there anything in Ansan that is urgent? “Please sit down.”
“Whoa-”
Okay, let’s calm down.
I sat down in Vasilisa’s comfortable chair and took a moment to catch my breath.
“ruler. I calmed down. Quick taxi.”
“okay. I will arrange a car for you right away, so calm down. Did you fly straight from Sokcho? Magic? “What about Collie?”
An orb with a large monitor instead of a head approaches and hands you a cold Americano filled with ice.
“Ah, thank you. Of. Oh yeah. “I have a favor to ask of Curtain Call and his friends: please help me with financial matters.”
“mediation? “What did you do to my collie on your own?”
“What is my collie again? Everyone was convinced. I don’t have the money right now, but I’ll get it later. “Lend me some credit.”
“Huh, okay. I’ll give you at least that much. And honey.”
Tudor smiled brightly, then leaned on my shoulder and whispered lowly.
“huh?”
“How long have you been distorting the space-time continuity, honey?”
“continuity?”
“I never told you, but-”
Tudor’s whisper tickling my ear. It’s a sweet voice that makes your shoulders slightly slump.
“I actually have the ability to sense it.”
This is information you already know. I heard it from Tudor in the last episode. Although it ended up being something that never happened.
Tudor continued to whisper while holding my shoulders.
“I don’t know if it’s turning back time or stopping it, but this world has a stronger ability to repair than you think. It’s like an abyss, so I ignore it and wield it. “Keep in mind that at our level, a bigger problem may arise due to repulsion.”
“… … okay. okay. “Thank you for the advice.”
So, I pushed Tudor slightly with the meaning of “give me a little distance”.
“Even if I don’t mention Gong Yi-soo’s name, you already know, right? “He has that kind of power, but remember where Gong Yi-soo arrived.”
“okay.”
On the way, I met Gong Yi-su from another time zone.
The place that future Gong Yi-su chose was ultimately the hospital room at Paju Central Hospital.
Anyway, it’s a repulsive force… … .
I suddenly saw my left hand holding a coffee cup.
In the last episode, the middle finger, ring finger, and little finger of my left hand were cut off.
Not long ago, I encountered a conqueror and suffered injuries that completely distorted my middle, ring, and small fingers.
“… … .”
I entrusted the job to Park Gwang-rim, but I received a phone call from Park with ominous information.
and-
No, the exact same thing is not happening. I’m moving faster than ever before – I’ve solved more things – and I’ve changed a lot.
I’m a little uneasy as expected.
I stood up and said to Tudor.
“I’m going to go home for a little while. “Please arrange a taxi for me.”
“When are you coming?”
“Come back within an hour.”
“Hehe, yes. “Then I’ll prepare a taxi.”
“thank you.”
I put down my glass and headed for the door. Create a dimensional gateway in a suitable alley and travel to the Starving Mansion.
“And honey.”

Tudor’s voice suddenly called me.
“huh?”
“Because I’m always on your side. “If you have a problem, come to Vasilisa no matter what it looks like.”
“Aha-yeah. “I’m glad I have a place to go even if I fail.”
I said so and left Vasilisa.
* * *
“I’m here! I really missed you! Mr. Sanghyun!”
“Shinhwa?”
“I really missed the meal that Sanghyun prepared! But I’ll be leaving soon. The meal is okay!”
“yes?”
Uddangtangtang!
Together!
“Okay, turn around! It’s Achilles! You guys are cute! Argh! “I’m sorry, but don’t come closer!”
Due to my hysterical reaction, Doldol and Achilles became more excited and followed me, and I had to run around the living room screaming for a while.
Both of these guys had nothing to do with my phobia, but their motifs – their behavior and appearance stimulated my phobia.
“Red! “Hey guys, wait a minute!”
“Kwiik!”
Let’s go together-
Kugwagwagwagwang
Uddangtangtang again.
Thanks to Red flying in and helping me, I was able to quickly enter the basement.
“Ugh.”
After sighing briefly and gathering everything I could from the basement, I extended my magic towards the large door in the corner of the basement.
“Open the door. “Let’s make a deal.”
kkieeeeek-
A metallic sound coming from the darkness of the basement. And the surreal sound of laughter, intertwined with that metallic sound, penetrates my ears.
“You say something interesting. What kind of deal do you want?”
A human voice is heard from within the pitch-black barrier. She is the [Smiling One] who slowly appears with him.
He was, as always, the image of a blue tiger.
“… … .”
I was speechless for a moment when I saw the figure, more vivid than before and full of more vitality than Cheongho when he was alive.
“Ha, now that I think about it, I’m not in a position to say anything to Tudor.”
Orb and Pannier – Tudor has collected and raised strange beings.
When it comes to surreal monsters, I also have a mountain of them. And that is the strongest and most terrible monster I am raising.
The [Laughing One] who stole Cheongho’s appearance is impressed by my nonsense.
“What are you talking about?”
“no. Let’s go back to what we were talking about. “Please go to Buyeo.”
“… … “You’re going to send me out?”
Cheongho’s face shows a look of surprise.
“okay. “Go out, get some fresh air, make some plans, and make some friends.”
“Have you finally come to your senses?”
“Of course, we’re not letting everyone go. “I’ll lend you a command golem, so split one page and board it.”
“What is the purpose? I’m sure you’re planning to send it with all kinds of chains attached to that one page, right? “In that state, you are not a human and cannot perform complex tasks while riding a command golem.”
[The one who laughs] It was an absurd or even infuriating suggestion, but a positive answer was received.
‘It’s worth it since you kept giving me such good food.’
Although it was said to be a life of confinement, honestly, it probably wasn’t an all-too-bad period for [The One Who Laughs].
In the meantime, I continued to provide him with items imbued with the influence of the [Abyssal Beings]. It was to remove impurities and poisons contained in those items, but those impurities and poisons must have been great nutrition for him.
I was able to come up with this plan because he had recently started to show some favor towards me.
“Go and stir for a moment and then come back.”
[The One Who Laughs] used the blue tiger’s shadow to assume a pensive posture. In short, he crossed his arms and frowned.
“Stir it? Is that the end?”
“It’s over.”
I looked at my left hand again and then spoke. We plan to reduce problematic factors as much as possible.
“What can I get?”
Are you asking for compensation in the midst of this? This bastard is incredibly shameless.
“You don’t want to go out?”
“It’s good. But this is a separate issue. Are you not my servant? “If you say so, I might move it, but-.”
“Well, if you don’t tie it up with a proper deal, you won’t be able to feel at ease.”
In order to prevent it from moving around and causing trouble, it is necessary to bind it with a magical contract like it did with Lee Ha-seo.
And the contract does not take effect properly if it is unilaterally forced. Legitimate compensation is needed.
I showed the [Avatar Stone] created with the magic power of the [Great Source].
“Give me this.”
“It was made from the influence left by the being of the abyss. But the concentration is too low. “Can you give me the other Avatar Stone you have?”
As for the other Avatar Stones I have –
Fanny, that is, refers to the five incarnation stones made up of the magic power of [Mountain Predator].
An object so powerful that even I cannot control it properly yet.
Although it has the same name as the [Incarnation Stone], the concentration itself is different from this crude Avatar Stone made with magical power extracted from Lee Seon-bin’s body.
“Just get rid of it.”
I was trying to make things better, but now you’re trying to ruin everything in the house?
Kkkkkk- Hahahaha- Ahahahahaha-
[The Laughing One] let out a surreal laugh for a moment, then moved his hand and pointed to the [Great Source] incarnation stone I was holding.
“To agree.”
“good. “Then let’s start right away.”
I immediately summoned a command golem and drew up a very, very, very long contract.
[The one who laughs] says, “Do it in moderation! Since he said, “Doesn’t the concept of [trust] exist in your head?”, you probably don’t need to worry too much.
* * *
Only after taking all the above measures was I able to reach Ansan.
Although this is Ansan, it is a suburb far from the city center.
It is a place close to Surisan Mountain.
“where? Can I drop you off at this point? “Is it really okay for you to wait?”
The gravelly voice of a security taxi driver.
Looking through the room mirror, I can see the wrinkles around his eyes and an even more impressive scar.
“yes. That’s enough here. “Please return home carefully.”
“Hahaha – yes. Then you too, be careful!”
The taxi driver leaves with a bright smile.
After confirming that the taxi had left, I tried calling Park Gwang-rim again.
But it just keeps beeping.
Park Gwang-rim did not answer the phone.
“ha-”
sigh.
A horror plot development that can be said to be typical.
There’s no choice. I walked a little further, activating the stealth spell.
“Is that it?”
I looked at the wide expanse of barbed wire under a dark sky with a gloomy atmosphere.
‘This is a daycare center?’
If this is really an orphanage, that sinister-looking barbed wire fence would be the orphanage’s fence.
“Not a military facility?”
A barbed wire fence so long that it seems as though it surrounds the entire mountain.
The top of the barbed wire is woven with wire with razor-like blades. furthermore… …
[caution! high voltage current]
High-voltage current flows through this barbed wire.
“Hyeondeok, you grew up in a pretty cool place, right?”
It’s a pity that if I had known it was a place like this, I would have come here a long time ago.
I was soon able to reach what I assumed was the main gate.
Attached to the front door was an old iron plate with peeling paint, with the following written on it:
[House of Healing]
