◈ Episode 287: The chaos begins (1)
Until the lotus of reincarnation took the form of a bud again, Kim Joo-hyuk took an unexpected break and went about his daily life leisurely.
Of course, I wanted to make a move in advance as the seal on the incarnations would be released soon.
‘Anyway, there’s nothing I can do even if I move at this point.’
Kim Joo-hyuk had no choice but to agree with the guide’s words.
In the first place, just because he was moving at this point didn’t mean he could have taken care of anything in advance.
As a result, he was able to enjoy a few days of rest for the first time in a while.
In the meantime, I listened to the stories of Yan Lang and Choi A-rin, who had now completely regained their memories, and roughly talked about their past selves.
“… … “You look pretty tired.”
“… … .”
I was feeling a little tired.
… … No, a little too tired.
“Does it look like that?”
“Well, it’s not like there are dark circles or anything, but it just looks saggy.”
Baekho sits next to Kim Joo-hyuk and talks.
Looking at him like that, Kim Joo-hyuk seriously wondered whether Yan Lang and Choi A-rin were his students.
‘… … Is this the relationship between teacher and student?’
Questions to ask yourself.
However, no matter how much I thought about it, the answer to that question was NO.
At least in Kim Joo-hyuk’s opinion, the relationship between teacher and student should have been close, but it was not this close.
‘… … Still, if you listen to me talk, it seems like I am your teacher.’
When I think about the attack(?) that happened last night in the past week, and the things that happened without Kim Joo-hyuk even having a chance to do anything about it, no matter how much I think about it, this is… … .
“More than that.”
While Kim Joo-hyuk was thinking, he heard a voice and turned his gaze to look at Baekho.
“Are you going to go up now?”
Kim Joo-hyuk knew that today is the day when the lotus flower of reincarnation closes again and becomes a bud, so he nodded in the affirmative.
“That’s right. I already have a lot of questions to ask when I go up. “In many ways.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk muttered that, Baekho nodded and spoke as if he understood everything.
“Right.”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who heard Baekho’s words, immediately got up from his seat, relieved his sore body, checked his room where Yanrang had not yet come out, and spoke.
“If they ask where I went, tell them I went up.”
“I get it.”
“More than that, aren’t you going up to the labyrinth?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Baekho suddenly put on a serious expression and spoke.
“To be honest, I want to go up.”
“however?”
“But the problem is that if I go up alone, those two might blow up the market.”
“ah.”
Kim Joo-hyuk let out an exclamation as if he understood what Baekho said.
Of course, Kim Joo-hyuk had seen Phoenix and Suzaku behind Baekho before, and he knew well that the relationship between the two was not that good.
However, there is one thing I learned while living with Baekho.
That was to say that the relationship between Phoenix and Suzaku was worse than Kim Joo-hyuk thought.
“Well, if we make eye contact, we fight.”
“okay… … .”
“Isn’t there a need for some kind of solution? “Can you try to stop me?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Baekho remained silent.
“that is… … .”
“that is?”
“Uneasy.”
“… … .”
Looking at Baekho, who was talking with a serious expression, Kim Joo-hyuk thought for a moment about what to say, but ended up answering without saying anything and nodding as if he understood.
‘But I’m glad Choi A-rin and Yan Lang didn’t end up like that.’
To be honest, I was worried at first whether Choi A-rin and Yan Lang would feel the same way.
That’s because, considering their past relationship, their relationship wasn’t that good.
However, after retrieving their memories, the girls played together like a lie.
As for how much?
‘Today is me.’
‘Then tomorrow is me.’
‘But if you divide it by a week, one day is empty, right? ‘How do I do that?’
‘Uhm… … . ‘Wouldn’t it be okay if we went in together then?’
‘That’s a good answer.’
So much so that they even coordinate their night raid schedules.
“Hmm… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk suddenly recalled hearing the two of them talking a few days ago, and soon came to his senses.
“Anyway, I’m coming back.”
With a very serious expression on his face, he left those words to Baekho, who seemed to be lost in the trick, and immediately began preparing to go up to the labyrinth.

“You’re here. “I prepared it in advance because I knew it would arrive right away.”
As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk came up to the top of the labyrinth, the guide whom he had seen for the first time in a few days displayed the lotus flower of reincarnation in front of him, as if he had been waiting for Kim Joo-hyuk.
“The preparation is thorough.”
“Because you have a short temper.”
Kim Joo-hyuk chuckled at the guide’s words as if he already knew everything and continued talking as he approached her.
“Then, after touching this reincarnation lotus and meeting that guy, can I just go straight to deal with the remaining incarnation?”
“that’s right. “Have you decided who to deal with yet?”
“I have decided.”
“Then why don’t you talk?”
Kim Joo-hyuk spoke while looking at the lotus flower as the guide said.
“Anyway, if you can meet yourself by touching this, I think it’s right to ask that guy and deal with the one that causes the most trouble.”
“Uhm. indeed. “I guess that’s okay.”
A positive guide.
At that, Kim Joo-hyuk sighed heavily.
“Then I’ll meet you first.”
As soon as I said that, I touched the lotus flower of reincarnation.
thud!
“!”
As soon as he touched the lotus of reincarnation, Kim Joo-hyuk felt like he was being thrown away and realized that he was floating in the middle of outer space, where he had been before.
Countless stars in the entire universe.
Tuk-
Kim Joo-hyuk, who was looking at it, suddenly realized that his body, which was floating in the air, could step on empty space and immediately stood still.
As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk stood in his place.
“You came with all the abilities.”
Kim Joo-hyuk could suddenly see himself appearing in front of him.
He was about to open his mouth as he looked at the person who clearly looked exactly like Kim Joo-hyuk, with the only differences being the length of his hair and his clothes.
chuck!
I tilted my head at the sight of myself suddenly raising my hand.
“First of all, I have also gained the ability to bloom, so let’s do a quick summary before talking. “First of all, of course we know who each other is, so let’s not introduce ourselves.”
The man spoke to him.
“It’s a little strange to keep away from each other, so let’s do it this way. I am Kalki. You are Kim Joo-hyuk. “That’s what I call it.”
Kalki organizing the titles.
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at him quietly and nodded.
Only then did Kalki smile and speak as if she liked it.
“Now, before I tell you the summary, I’m sure you have some questions, right? Ask that first. “I’ll answer all your questions first and then tell you.”
Kalki says.
Kim Joo-hyuk spoke without delay.
“It seems clear that you are my past self.”
“That’s natural.”
“So are you like a remnant too?”
“dregs?”
Kalki, who had been pondering Kim Joo-hyuk’s words for a moment, seemed to immediately think of it. He made a sound and spoke.
“Well, if you think of it as a remnant, you might think of it as a remnant. “I died anyway, and the person who remains here now is another me left behind in the lotus of reincarnation.”
Kim Joo-hyuk spoke immediately in response to Kalki’s answer.
“Why did you ask to see me after gaining the ability to bloom?”
“It’s simple. “I need to teach you how to use it.”
“… … How to use?”
“I guess I just received the blooming ability from my student anyway and couldn’t learn how to use it, right?”
“… … “Was what the guide said correct?”
“Guide? Ah, that guy. “I guess I lost my name after all.”
Kalki, who was muttering with a slightly bitter expression, nodded.
“He probably would have fully understood my intentions and explained them to you, but the reason why I left such a trace and left the flowering ability to my disciple is simple.”
talked.
“It’s more efficient. It will take at least a month for you to lose something in your subconscious and gain the ability to bloom. “Maybe it will take more than that, but if we break it down like this?”
“Because the speed at which you learn the flowering ability is much faster?”
“yes. Once you gain the blooming ability, I will teach you in detail how to use that blooming ability so that you can learn it yourself. Then you will be able to use your abilities quickly. “As you may have heard, your flowering ability is not something that can be easily used.”
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded at Kalki’s words.
“I already heard that from the guide.”
Kim Joo-hyuk opened his mouth because he had actually heard the same thing as this story before when the guide told him a hypothesis.
“I knew it. “He would fully understand my intentions.”
Kalki smiled and nodded.
“Then let’s talk about this flowering ability later, and do you have any other questions?”
Kalki’s question.
Kim Joo-hyuk paused for a moment and then shook his head.
“… … “First of all, for the next question, I think it would be better to listen to your whole story and then ask questions.”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
Kalki smiled at him, nodded as if she understood, and cleared her throat as if to start talking.
“ah.”
“?”
“Wait a minute, but I still want to ask you this first. Can I ask you this?”
“Well, ask.”
As he was about to start talking, he was interrupted, but Kalki nodded as if he was curious. Soon Kim Joo-hyuk spoke straight away.
“… … “Are you always like that, disciples?”
“What are you talking about?”
“No, I mean the disciples.”
Hearing Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, Kalki made a questioning expression for a moment.
“Ah, are you talking about the first and second children?”
“okay.”
“If you think about it, those two have already recovered all their memories and are by my side.”
“Okay, so what I want to ask you is…” … .”
When Kim Joo-hyuk tried to open his mouth, Kalki laughed and waved his hand in response.
“Ah, I think I know what you want to ask without even having to say anything. “I guess it sticks to me more than I thought?”
Kim Joo-hyuk silently nodded at Kalki’s words.
Kalki spoke without a smile on her face.
“So is that what you want to ask me? How to control your disciples?”
“… … Well, I didn’t mean to ask that, but it would be nice if you could tell me.”
“okay?”
“Is there a way to control it?”
Kim Joo-hyuk looks at Kalki.
On that.
Sigh.
Kalki spoke with a smile on her face.
“Well, to be exact, there is a way.”
“method?”
“okay.”
“What?”
Kim Joo-hyuk looks at him a little curiously.
Kalki saw that and spoke.
“You just have to accept it.”
“what?”
“I told you, right? “Just accept it, don’t think about how to do it, that’s the way.”
“… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk had no choice but to remain silent with a bewildered expression upon Kalki’s words.
