177 – EP.33 Easter Egg-3

Ereph, who is showing severe symptoms of forgetfulness.

To my surprise, Eref introduced himself as someone who has mastered the truth of the world.

If a person who has reached the truth is an amnesiac, can it be said that he has reached the truth?

I could say that it was difficult in many ways, but it was like a substitute.

“That’s strange. I must have remembered that.”

“If you can’t remember, call Yata here and ask.”

“I really want to do that, but unfortunately I can’t. The crow doesn’t know about our meeting, and it’s something she shouldn’t know about.”

“Yata doesn’t know? Is that possible?”

Yata knows all about what is happening in the world and what might happen through future poetry.

The fact that Yata didn’t know something was a lie that she couldn’t believe at all.

“It is possible. When I was making this game, I designed this space so that she would never notice.”

“But if Yata uses future vision, isn’t it enough to figure out you’re here?”

Yata must have been able to confirm that Eref had disappeared in reality through another future perspective that did not participate in the game.

For that reason, in front of the three-legged crow who is looking into the future, the perfect crime is an impossible word.

“I can’t figure it out. Yes, the me here now is only one of Eref’s consciousnesses, and my body is in reality.”

“What are you talking about again?”

“As I introduced earlier, I said I was the god of creation, right? In other words, the current me is a being created by the body’s abilities. By the way, my body is having a normal day in reality.”

“In other words, you are fake?”

“Well? I don’t deny the fact that I’m a made-up being, but it’s too ambiguous to say that I’m fake because I share consciousness with the main body.”

“Then what exactly is you now?”

“Well, that’s a difficult question! Still, if you want to simply use a name created by humans, you can call it Avatar.”

Simply put, the Eref in front of me means an alter ego of the main body.

Unlike the great masters he’d met so far, he was a mysterious master in many ways.

“The conversation seems to have gone sideways, but the crow will never know we met anyway.”

“…… I understand everything you said so far, but I still can’t accept it. Because Yata can also see the future where I tell him everything that happened here.”

“Don’t worry about that. The moment you leave this space, all of your memories will be destroyed except for some. Like my identity, or the fact that I was in the game.”

“In a nutshell, you are trying to silence me by erasing my memories… ….”

“Exactly.”

In that case, surely not even Yata would know.

It wasn’t a very pleasant feeling to have my memories erased, but I could humbly accept it if it was important enough not to be found out by Yata.

I just feel uneasy about what to do if I forget even the important story I heard from Eref.

“Are you the kind of person who worries a lot for nothing? No, would the expression prudent be more appropriate?”

“I don’t really care what you say about me. Don’t read people’s thoughts carelessly. Yata is my pet, so even if I could take care of it, you wouldn’t.”

“It’s too much, no matter how openly discriminated against me, it hurts my heart. I even prepared a present for you.”

Eref has been expressing his dissatisfaction with his lips pouted.

However, I was not very happy with this current situation, so I just squinted my eyes.

“You are always wary. Okay, let’s stop talking about details here and now let’s talk honestly.”

“Didn’t you forget to tell me something?”

“I’m sorry about that, but please understand. My brain capacity is almost full with all the truth in the world, so it is difficult to accept all other information.”

“How the hell did he become a Shinsoo…… “

“I hear that a lot. Anyway, I just remembered everything, so you don’t have to worry anymore.”

There’s still a lot I don’t know, but at least I know his clever personality.

It feels like a mixture of naturalness and smirk at the same time in every word.

He was nasty, but he was the type of person you couldn’t hate.

“First of all, before we talk in earnest, let me ask you one thing. Did you ever feel strange while playing the game?”

“That was a lot of f*cking! Bugs where mutants are not regenerated near the game club room, bugs where quest failure appears as soon as you pick up the key you prepared, etc. Are there many things you want to ask about? We’re not talking about it here, fix that bug!”

“Uh… It’s not a bug, I made it that way on purpose for the current situation.”

“Are you crazy? That’s why you couldn’t build up a crush on Alice! If I can’t watch the harem ending because I don’t like you because of you, how will you take responsibility? Are you going to get stabbed by Miho’s cleaver instead of me?”

“Mi-sorry. I never thought you would be so serious about the game.”

I am the type who prefers fun games rather than hard games.

However, there was a reason why I had no choice but to choose Pakgame in this game, and that is that all endings except for Harem are Kaljji endings.

No matter how much I have experienced thousands of deaths from Fenrir, I don’t want to be stabbed to death by Miho’s kitchen knife.

That’s why I was working hard on the game even if I had to bite my teeth, but Eref interrupted that.

“Calm down. The important thing right now is not the game.”

“As a serious gamer, do you know that is a very insulting statement?”

“Okay, I’ll secretly manipulate the liking data. So stop getting angry.”

“It should be like that from the beginning.”

Whether it’s an important story or a joke, the game is the priority for me right now.

If the time left until the next event wasn’t too long, I’d be willing to ignore him and leave for the game.

“So why did you suddenly ask about something strange about the game?”

“Have you ever looked into the affinity information window?”

“A favorable impression information window… ?”

“Yes, there must have been something strange about that window.”

As I searched my memory, there was one thing that came to my mind.

A lot of question marks at the end of the list of heroines.

I felt like there was an unknown heroine to attack.

At the time, I thought it was just a bug, but when I looked at the circumstances…….

“If you hate it that much, it will hurt me too, so stop it. I am not the heroine hidden in the first place.”

“Oh, really? Good luck then.”

“Did you hate me that much? I don’t think I’ve done much to make you hate me, but I apologized for one thing that just happened, even promising compensation.”

“It’s not that you don’t like it, it’s just that it’s a bit unreasonable to accept a high priest who is thousands of years old as a heroine.”

“Somewhere, it seems like I can hear the sound of an eagle exploding.”

“Sister Hres’s demeanor and personality are more important than her age…… “

“It’s a foul.”

Hresbel’s grotesque personality that even the same prime minister acknowledges.

If Grandpa Kirin was an icon of winning streaks, she was an icon of losing streaks.

She really is such a great eagle that her breasts are magnificent.

“Back on topic, there is a heroine hidden somewhere in this world, and you want to tell her story about her?”

However, Eref shook his head as if my prediction had failed.

After that, he opened his mouth with a bitter expression like coffee.

“She is not here. And about her, you need to see and learn about her, not through my story.”

“I don’t understand English.”

“You’ll find out soon.”

Eref raises his hand in the empty space where there is nothing but darkness.

Then, the surroundings suddenly began to glow brightly, and something began to take shape on Eref’s palm.

As time passed, a glass bead was created on Eref’s hand.

“What else is that?”

“This is an orb containing the annihilated past, this is my little gift to give you.”

“This marble is my gift?”

“Yes, swallowing this will change your fate. In return, you will be accompanied by pain you will never forget.”

“Is it like a poison?”

“No, there is no effect directed to the human body. I just mean the pain I’m talking about here.”

Eref pointed his finger at my left breast.

He said it was harmless to the exact location of my heart or to the human body, so there was only one pain he was talking about.

‘Does it mean that my heart will hurt?’

I don’t understand anything about what happened in the past, what caused it to be forgotten, and why you say it broke my heart.

The only thing I could know was that Eref’s words were full of confidence.

It is never an empty word as it is a substitute who has reached the truth. If I swallow this marble, my fate will surely change.

“I don’t mean to take it right now. If you’re afraid of the pain you’ll suffer, it doesn’t matter if you throw it away.”

“Then when is the best time to eat?”

“It would be ideal to consume it after this game is over.”

“But this is a virtual world, right? Will this orb disappear when the game is over?”

“That orb was created with my own power. Because it is an object that has no boundary between virtual and real. Even if you return to reality, it will remain intact in your pocket, so don’t worry too much.”

“What if I forget?”

“Then it’s no big deal. But at least you won’t forget anything about the orb. Even after you broke up with me.”

Eref said that if I leave this space, my memories will be erased.

But since I said that some of my memories will remain, that part probably means this marble.

“Whether you will live if you are satisfied with your current fate, or whether you will change your destiny with your own hands, the choice is yours. The divine beast’s companion.”

“Eref, if you are a Shinsoo who has truly reached the truth, I want to ask you one thing.”

“Okay. What can I tell you?”

“Can I and my pets be happy in the reversed fate?”

A representative of truth who smiles brightly at my question.

A word that came out of his slowly growing mouth was enough to make me decide.
