Omniscient Reader's Perspective

As soon as I spoke, the expressions of the players changed.Jung Hee-won's eyes widened, while Lee Ji-hye looked confused.Li Xiancheng opened his eyes wide.Finally, Shen Yusheng...

"The only son of gold is wrong"

The sound of the fourth wall echoed in my head.

I don't know if it's the will of the fourth wall or a fragile part of my psyche.

The fourth wall somewhat reflects how I feel, so both may be true.Anyway, this time I made a decision.

"I know it's hard to understand my words. I had to tell this story to a group of people. "I explained slowly from the beginning."

I talked for a long time.One day, the novel I was reading became reality.

In that story, I met them.I didn't tell them the whole story, but at the same time, I didn't lie.

I knew these people before I met them.

I did not correctly state the fact that I know the future.

I monopolize information and deceive people.

I said it all.It's as if I'm waking up to a dark past.

A little further away from the ball, Han Xiuying stared at me with a frown.I understand how she feels. The same is true for Han Xiuying in the 1863 round.

However, I can't live like Han Soo Young.The story should be told just right.

In order to move forward properly, some stories must be communicated.

...just like Yoo Jong Hyuk.

"I'm a Returner"

Maybe Yoo Jong Hyuk feels like me too.

He knew the future, lived the same stories over and over again, met the players countless times.

And then...he sent them away.I can understand how Yoo Jong Hyuk felt when he told the story without reservation.

"That's why I brought you here."

My story is over.

However, after the story was over, no one spoke.

It's not that they don't understand my story.

It's a long story that even a child can understand.

However, the players did not speak.

I bowed and went on. "I sincerely apologize to all of you. I'm really sorry I'm telling you this now."

I would like to know.What is the team thinking?How do they feel?

Even so, I'm not using the omniscient reader's perspective.In this case, if I use this technique to read them, it is really a kind of deception.

I want to use my own power without relying on any skills.I want to believe that no matter what they think and feel, the actions they choose are actually their own decisions.

I slowly raised my head and saw Li Zhizhi's eyes.

Li Zhizhi's eyes were red.When I saw those eyes, I suddenly realized something.

I have known those eyes for a long time.

"At that time, Master knew everything about the future..."

They are exactly the same as Li Zhihui when he heard Liu Zhonghyuk's story.

Li Zhizhi slowly opened his mouth. "Until now, you still know everything about the future..."

As if the original character was reading the given script, Lee Ji-hye spoke.

I reacted to her like I read a script.

"yes"

"Yes."

Li Zhizhi gritted his teeth and said to me: "So now...why are you telling us this?"

.The wounded Sword Demon was angry, I read the original book and guessed what she would say.

"What are we to you?"

Li Zhizhi lowered his head, his shoulders trembling slightly.What happened next kept playing in my mind.

Li Zhizhi would draw her sword and probably attack me because she couldn't suppress her anger.

There are many such occasions in the original book.However, Li Zhizhi chose a way that I didn't expect at all.

"Assume you know the future."

"Everything is planned, Uncle uses us to achieve his goals. Assuming we are the character of the goddamn inactivation method, everything is arranged!"

Li Zhizhi looked at me while crying and bit her pale lips.

"So...why did you give up your life for us so many times?"

I saw tears running down her cheeks and wanted to open my mouth several times.This is an unexpected question.It's because of the unexpected that I can't answer...

"Answer me! If we are really fictional characters, why do you die for us over and over again?"

That's a question I can't answer with what I've read about inactivation.

The "fourth wall" is shaking violently

Li Zhizhi wiped his eyes and hit me on the shoulder as he walked past me.

Zheng Xiyuan quickly caught up with her.

"...Only son, we'll talk about it later."

Shen Yusheng hesitated, stared at me helplessly, and then followed Zheng Xiyuan out.

When Li Xiancheng walked out of the room with his head down, his eyes were blank.

The only ones left are Han Xiuying, Li Xuehua and Li Jiyong.

Li Jiyong stared at me with complicated eyes, and Li Xuehua lowered her head, looking shocked.

Han Xiuying patted Li Xuehua on the back and said sharply to me. "Jin Duzi, leave for a while."

***

hospital ward.I stared at my mother's sleeping face.I visited the hospital wards in between, because the team members hadn't been back for a long time.

My mother has slept like this all day since her last major surgery.

Her eyes were shadowed and her cheeks were haggard.

I gazed at my mother's face and thought of a time when I visited her in prison.

What did my mother think when her son came to see her, just to talk about a novel?

"Your expression is dark."

"...you're awake?"

"I woke up when you came in."

It's a sound without any energy.

I pulled a tangled blanket over my mother's neck

.Mother smiled lightly. "Nearly dying is a good thing. My son is taking care of me."

"Get well soon."

"Talk to me, anything."

I struggled for a while before speaking. "In the 154th round of inactivation, Yoo Jong-hyuk told the story of his comeback to the team members..."

"Have you talked to everyone about inactivation?"

"how do you know?"

.My mother reached out her bony hand and grabbed mine.

"You think they're going to blame you. You think they're going to feel cheated and ask why you're withholding this information."

"That's not how it works."

"You don't know how to ask for forgiveness."

I nodded silently.

-Answer me! If we are really fictional characters, why do you die for us over and over again?"

Li Zhizhi's voice echoed in my ears.

My mother said, "It's not for you to decide whether to forgive or not."

"So......"

"Maybe someone behind you can tell you."

I turned my head and saw Zheng Xiyuan standing at the door of the hospital ward.I excused myself from the hospital ward.

Zheng Xiyuan scratched her cheek and suggested: "Shall we go for a walk?"

We walked along the corridor of the hospital wing.This is a simple corridor without any decoration.This seems to be Yoo Jong Hyuk's taste... the guy has been tinkering with factories for the past three years.

In fact, at the end of the corridor is the ward where Yoo Jong Hyuk is lying.

Zheng Xiyuan looked out the window and opened her mouth first. "thank you for telling me."

I don't know how troubled Jung Hee Won was before she said those words.To make matters worse, I couldn't see her face.The players can be seen from the window.When Li Xiancheng and Li Xuehua comforted Li Zhizhi, Li Jiyong and Shen Yusheng were arguing.

"Everyone will be fine. Wisdom takes a little time, but..."

"Xiyuan..."

Before I could finish speaking, Zheng Xiyuan turned her head and looked at me.There was a smile on her face as usual.

I shut my mouth and Jung Hee Won asked, "Are you surprised that I'm fine?"

"not like this"

"No, it's not."

Jung Hee Won has long known that I have "future information" Perhaps among these characters, she is the one who knows me best.

Zheng Xiyuan stretched her waist and said. "No big deal. It's a world where monsters and ghosts exist... It's something special that makes fiction come true."

"I understand the past now. The reason why the only son said that I will not appear in the future. Does this mean that I did not appear in the novel that the only son read?"

"...Yes."

' Bi Liu floated above Shen Yusheng's head like a cloud.

Jung Hee-won told me, "Thanks to my only son, I was able to come here safely."

"That, Xiyuan—Xi—"

"Thank you for finding me. I'm not being sarcastic. I mean it."

I know.I was already familiar with the tone Jung Hee Won used to tease me.Even so, I still don't know what to say.

"Don't be morose, look to the future. If you want, you can promote me as soon as possible. Now, shake hands and cheer up."

Zheng Xiyuan grabbed my hand hard, and a warm current surged in my heart suddenly.

I bit my lip tightly.

"Zheng Xiyuan, she is not well"

I can feel the pulse in Jung Hee Won's hands.She will be sad too.She's going to be miserable, it's hard for her.even so...

Jung Hee Won held my hand tightly for a while, then let me go with a smile.Then she asked, "By the way, only son... I have a question."

"Yes, ask."

"If the world is a novel, it means there is a protagonist."

As expected, Jung Hee Won is sharp.I told everyone about the "Inactivation Law", but I didn't say who the protagonist is.However, Jung Hee-won has already realized the identity of the protagonist.

.Jung Hee-won stares at the end of the corridor, "Is that why you guys fought?"

"I haven't spoken to him yet, but ... it seems so."

"Since you've started, you should see the end properly, you know?"

I nodded.

"It's not easy for that person."

I know, but still can't avoid it.

***

For the next two days, I stayed in Yoo Jong Hyuk's ward.I rarely see other people.I was worried, but decided to keep calm.I believe people need time to think.Once the players are ready, it's not too late to talk. 'Liu Zhonghyuk still hasn't woken up.

"He's almost healed from the injuries on his body. I think it's psychological."

"Psychological problems?"

"He didn't seem to want to wake up ... maybe he had a bad blow."

These are the exact words of Aileen, she exchanged the story backpacks and left, only me and Liu Zhonghyuk were left in the room.

Floating dust settled on his nose.

I opened my mouth while looking at Yoo Jong Hyuk. "You were the one who caught me first and threw me off the bridge."

'I know he can't hear me, but I still want to talk to him.

"Get your hands off me and get the hell out of here, you bloody bastard"

"I believe you, you are definitely a prophet."

.The first time I met him on the bridge, suddenly, a laugh appeared.

"Honestly, you're not in a position to blame me for anything. You're a memory returner... how many people have died because of you?"

As soon as I opened my mouth to speak, memories poured out like a waterfall.It's like Pandora's box.It feels like a long time has passed.I spent a long time with this person.

"I thought I knew you better than anyone, but I don't these days. Why did you do that during the floods?"

"...that person is my companion" "Why do you call me companion?You don't usually say that... stabbed me in the dark castle...even when I told you to kill me. "

"The only son of gold! No! The only son of gold!"

Each memory causes countless emotional rises.

These episodes were very serious at the time, and became stories once they were over.

All we have left is the story.

"Still, I'm grateful for this revolutionary game. Because of you, I live in that era. Still, it's weird. Why are you using my name in the wrong industrial area? Well...  .Maybe you're trying to trick me."

I poured out what I thought, and gradually fell asleep.

.These complaints continued even when I was half-conscious.The days when I fought side by side with him were like reading "The Law of Inactivation".

Problem disaster.The strongest sacrifice.place of peace.The Tomb of the Plot.The devil chooses.I'd be hard-pressed to find a battlefield where I wasn't fighting alongside him.I think back to those times.

maybe it will get better

I can convince him if this is the Yoo Jong Hyuk I know.We never really talked about it.What if I take the time to explain step by step?It's Yoo Jong Hyuk, not someone else...

I could see Yoo Jong Hyuk's back in the distance, I forgot it was a dream and approached him.

Liu Zhonghe

At this time, my head was stabbed, and the words came out.This is a scene from The Law of Inactivation.Liu Zhonghyuk was betrayed by Anna Croft, a scene of miserable life.

This is Liu Zhonghyuk's last words.

"I will never forgive you"

Liu Zhonghyuk turned around and said to me that the Black Demon Sword released killing energy.

"Golden Only Son"

I felt a chill on my neck and woke up.I gasped as I sweated and realized it was a dream.The hazy moonlight came in through the window.It was an empty ward.

.I rubbed my eyes slowly, and then I realized something was wrong.

"Liu Zhonghyuk?"

The bed was empty.Yoo Jong Hyuk was not visible anywhere in the room.

The selected Ringer's solution floats in the air.I stood up quickly, but I couldn't feel Liu Zhonghyuk's presence anywhere.

On the bed, the pocket watch with a familiar design was still there.The remaining time before the Zodiac vs Demon War is 26 days.

On this day, Yoo Jong Hyuk left the Golden Duty Subsidiary.
