I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 46

46 – I Can Hear Your Voice

The difference between Jinsol and other people is…

‘···Is it a sense of distance?’

I don’t have much to talk about with Jinsol other than when we eat, so that’s all I can think about.

Then who is Byeongcheon the most distant?

[I think you are eating too much.]

[———-]

[———-]

‘··· I’m sorry…’

But I guess my prediction is right? It seems that the sense of distance or bonding will only be resolved when it increases.

Isn’t there anything good about everything being resolved? You can get a rough idea just by looking at the top of the gel. Well, I don’t think I’ll have any abilities that will be helpful in battle, hmm…

The second is like a comprehensive evaluation of myself, so why don’t I really want to know?

Anyway, I was excited that the value of my characteristics had slightly increased, so I raised my voice by half a tone and asked about stage 21.

“When stage 21 begins, does anyone know what will happen to those who bought passes?”

I didn’t ask this question with high expectations, as it was a situation I wouldn’t have experienced in the first round, but surprisingly, the answers came out easily.

– It will stop.

– Will it never stop?

– I think I’ll stop it…

“Time stops for people in shelters who bought passes?”

“Isn’t that all there is to it? Well, since we’re turning one year older, I feel like we’re losing out a bit.”

Hongseol answered indifferently.

‘I see… Anyway, I won’t be able to talk to Lingling for a while…’

Reading Lingling’s messages had already become a part of my daily routine, and I lost my appetite in disappointment.

[I think he’s doing this because he’s sad that he can’t talk to Lingling.]

[I think you’re thinking about Ringling.]

‘Hi!’

Gahi and Eunchae across from me opened their eyes and were looking at my face intently.

‘Huh, how did you know? Do all the regressors have mind-reading skills?…’

Bob, let’s eat!

For some reason, my heart ached, so I just ate my food in silence like a greedy pig.

[I am amazed at how much you eat.]

‘Mr. Byeongcheon… I eat this because I want to eat it…’

In the end, I tried to turn the mood around by bringing up a different topic.

“What is this, Starcha Order Form of Yeokcheon?”

Hmm-

Hmm~

No one could readily answer this, but Aksh*ta slowly raised her hand.

“I think it speaks of Kim Hyun-ah’s characteristics.”

“··· Well, actually, that’s what I think too.”

Hyuna Kim also immediately agreed with Aksh*ta’s opinion.

– Ah?! Is it?

– Oh, I guess that’s right?

Uh… So, if we reverse Hyuna’s characteristics…

Musou (rare)

– Stats increase by 100% in duels with players. In battles with demonic beasts, abilities drop by 50%.

Originally, this characteristic was

Musou (rare)

– In battles with demonic beasts, abilities increase by 100%. Stats decrease by 50% when fighting players.

Is this how things will change? What is this?

“Why didn’t you tell me right away, Hyuna?”

“··· It seemed like Star Chart was probably a condition similar to my characteristic… But isn’t it too expensive? 500,000, So I thought I’d talk about it once the stage passes. As time goes by, the efficiency increases. “Because.”

‘Keuung… It’s expensive. But it’s not like I can never buy it… Considering two mauve stone rings and a lightning knuckle, it’s a bit ambiguous.

If you buy it after you level up a bit, it will be much more efficient than buying equipment.’

“…Well, the choice is always up to the shelter director.”

Hmm- really? What are your real feelings?

Stamina: ??

mana: 87

Strength: 33

Agility: ??

[I hope to do my part on the battlefield as soon as possible.]

[——–]

[——–]

‘Keuung… Is your relationship with Hyuna only at this level? Actually, it feels a bit difficult. Deep inside, I really want to play in the field. ‘He doesn’t even think he’s doing his job by just fighting the battle.’

This is a bit of a problem. Just as Eun-chae is having a hard time on the inside, Hyuna is also having a hard time.

‘Uhm… In the end, I will be the main battle…’

After gathering my thoughts for a moment, I spoke to Hyuna Kim.

“Why not have a fight with me on stage 21?”

Huh?!!

“··· I don’t understand what you’re saying.”

People and Kim Hyun-ah also looked at me with round eyes.

“Kim Hyun-ah has a mission. Even if she wants to play in the field, if there is no one who can compete better than Hyuna, it would be right to continue doing the mission. Since everyone has refused to compete, it is not a big income, but Still, it is a valuable source of income for our shelter.”

“··· That’s correct.”

“So, Hyun-a will have a fight with me and decide to purchase the spell book. If she loses, she will go to the field, and if she beats me, she will continue to be in charge of the battle.”

“··· I see.”

[I think I might not be able to fight the weasel again.]

‘······ The obsession with weasels is really serious.’

“Instead, if possible, I will allow you to compete against the Ringling team.”

“···!”

She nodded her head loudly without saying a word.

[I am thinking about how to deal with the weasel.]

··· You only think about weasels, Hyuna.

This is a shelter with over 70 team members. There’s no law that says he’s the only one who comes out.

“The weasel may not appear.”

“Huh?! That’s right! There will be more than 30 field fighters…”

For her own sake, she may make an excuse and leave. It would be difficult if I lost to the same opponent twice.

‘Well, I’m not going to do it right away, so I’ll take my time and adjust Hyuna’s equipment…’

“It was a good meal.”

“Boy, you guys, it’s food!”

“Oh, that’s right.”

When I went up to the rooftop with my phone, there were caterpillars all over the floor.

“Is it too late…Ha-eun deserves to be urged to go up quickly.”

When I came up, Lara crawled, writhing her body violently, but Lulu, with her red body, was looking outside the shelter as if she was upset.

“Um… Let’s start with what I’m curious about”

I held Lala and stared at her for a while, but no information came to mind.

-15P

“I guess it doesn’t apply to spirits, since you said ‘strangers’.”

I held Lara and slowly glided next to her Lulu and sat cross-legged.

“···”

‘Oh… You’re holding up quite a bit?’

But little by little, something like transparent water began to flow from Lulu’s small spout.

In the end, he pretended not to be able to resist and slowly came towards me and slowly crawled into my arms.

Slap!

“Ouch! Why do you like being hit so much by the person who feeds you?”

Lulu didn’t even pretend to listen to what I said and started sucking the point at a frightening speed.

“Ah! A ring!”

Tivlin Nien Ling

– A ring containing the breath of the spirit Tivlin.

– Resistance to all status abnormalities +7%

– Spirit affinity +1

“I need to experiment with this right away hehehehe.”

-311,500P

After purchasing the ring, a beautifully shaped ring with a pair of very fresh green thin stems coiled around each other was placed on my palm.

“Wow… It’s so pretty.”

I had a very beautiful ring on my finger and wanted to show it off to the caterpillars, but why didn’t it come in?

“Profit!”

I barely managed to get it halfway to the second joint of my little finger, and the ring slowly came off and wrapped around my little finger again.

“…Couldn’t you please do that from the beginning?”

Stamina: 48

mana: 223 (+55)

Strength: 369 (+334)

Agility: 70 (+37)

– Status ailment resistance +7%

– Spirit affinity +1

Hmm… I feel reassured because there is more explanation.

When I finished reading the status window.

(Ah… It’s so delicious~ I think it would feel so good to hit you again. Can I do it? Lala?)

(Yum yum… Delicious, sleepy…)

·········

“Ah, wait a minute… Ha…”

Could it be that I am mentally ill? Numbers and letters appear on people’s faces, and voices of spirits are now heard.

I took a moment to wash my face and gather my thoughts.

(Ah… Let’s not move while we’re eating, bro)

(Should I hit him? Should I not hit him? Omnyomnyomnyom- first eat first)

“······”

I took the ring off my finger again.

“I can’t hear you…”

I stroked Lulu’s pink body for a moment.

Slap-slap-slap-!

“Apupu-“

I listened while being beaten, but I couldn’t hear anything.

“It’s because of the ring. Spirit affinity is also because of this.”

I thought it was only +1, but the difference between 0 and 1 was this big.

I put the ring on again.

Sleep-

(Ah… It’s coming slowly…)

(Ugh~ The taste gets better as time goes by. This human~ I want to live with my mouth plugged in for the rest of my life.)

“Can you hear me?”

(What are you saying, boy?)

(Ah… I’m falling asleep… Wow…)

“······ I can’t seem to understand what you’re saying. I think we’ll be able to have a conversation if our spirit affinity increases.”

(Don’t hesitate and just hit me on the cheek.)

“······ Should I just throw away the ring?”

My caterpillar was a sadist… Ugh…

I massaged my plump buttocks and reminisced about beautiful memories from the past.

(Ahhhhh… That’s right…!)

(ZzZ···)

“······”

I slowly removed the ring and went downstairs and lay down on the sofa for a while until the larvae fell.

Brurrr-

Lingling: Have you ever felt like your ears were bleeding? I often get that feeling around here and end up putting my fingers in my ears. These days, I keep getting the urge to just let them get slaughtered on stage 25.

“I guess something happened again…”

Lingling: Even doggos have fights, right? Rather, since there are so few people, I think it would be very difficult if something goes wrong, right? Huh? How is it?

“What can I say? I’m not saying that we are so peaceful.”

Dog: There were a lot of fights during the parasitic bug mission, and eventually there were deaths.

Ringling: Oh really?! We had detector skills, so the mission was over as soon as we completed it… Was the person who died someone important?

f*ck it… As expected, the shelter over there was easy to get through. I got the feeling from when they said there was a friendly faction fight. I feel resentful for some reason…

Dog: He wasn’t that kind of person.

Lingling: Really? I’m glad! But… How many women are there in your shelter?

Dog: 11 people

Lingling: They say there aren’t 20 people, but there are a lot more women?!

Hmm? What does it matter…

Dog: That’s how it happened, I didn’t really intend it.

Lingling: Hmm… Really? Anyway, you worked hard today too! I guess I’ll have to go back and mediate with those idiots! How can I hear sound through soundproofing? I guess I used a trait!

‘Oh my god… There are crazy people using attack characteristics in the shelter…’

I think the true apocalypse is that shelter.

“I think that shelter will go down the route of destruction without Ringling… Hmm.”

But since he was managing so hard, it seemed difficult to bring him in right away.

“It’s a shame…”

“···What are you so sad about?”

“Huh?! Oh Eunchae, just do something hahahaha…”

“Ugh…”

[I hope you can tell me honestly and in detail what you regret.]
