I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel - Chapter 119

119 – A dreamy night’s dream

‘Boss? This kid?’

I looked at the girl who appeared in front of me again.

No matter where you look, it doesn’t look like a monster.

From the zombies I’ve met to the cult of evil spirits.

The boss gave off a creepy atmosphere just by looking at it.

Well, it’s me, since there’s ‘metafiction’, but I’ve never actually felt it.

Anyway, it’s a story that other people’s evaluation was like that.

But the girl in front of me felt rather friendly.

If we met on the street, it would be an atmosphere that we would protect.

‘Of course, you shouldn’t judge people by their appearance in this world, but… ….’

Once the message came to mind, it is certain that this child is the boss.

Even 2000 points and a whopping 2000 coins were rewarded just by discovering it.

Even if it’s not a huge amount for me to earn coins through various sponsorships and hunting.

Even if you defeat quite a few boss monsters, it’s hard enough to get it right away.

To give it away just by finding it.

Originally, it must mean that meeting like this is a difficult opponent.

“Could you put away the weapon for now? It’s scary.”

The thing that bothers me most is that I don’t feel alive or threatened at all.

The overall atmosphere is mysterious and reassuring.

If it wasn’t for the system message, I wouldn’t have felt strange even if I just came and sat on your lap.

“What are you? How did you show up behind us?”

“Umm, I thought you would be happy, but you’re not?”

The girl tilted her head cutely.

It looked like a child enjoying a riddle.

“Oh, great! Then I’ll give you a chance to ask just three questions until you guess my identity.”

“Yes? What is that…….”

Eunbyeol made a slightly puzzled expression.

It’s strange that the boss suddenly appeared.

Give me a chance to ask the question 3 times.

It’s a difficult situation to understand if you think normally.

But at the same time, it is clear that a valuable clue to clearing the quest has appeared before us.

Maybe it’s because we got along well with the rabbits.

I don’t know if it’s because of other reasons.

Anyway, it was clear that it was an opportunity not to be missed.

I thought for a moment and then changed the question.

“I know you are the boss of this place. But why did you show up in front of us, the enemy?”

“Because you are good people who protected my children.”

“Children?”

“Yes, the rabbits you saved. Well, my children are not the only ones.”

In the words of the hatter, the animals that live here are called ‘spirits’.

Perhaps they are different from normal animals on Earth.

No, just looking at rabbits farming in the first place is far from the common sense we used to know.

But a child like this is the owner of those spirits?

‘Anything can happen in destruction…’

The rabbits ran up and started rubbing their bodies as if they were happy to see the girl.

The girl stroked the bunnies’ heads as if they were used to it.

I don’t think it’s a lie to say that they are their own children.

If so, does that mean that she will become the queen of the spirits?

“Ah! You said why did she make an appearance? It has a different purpose for me. And that’s because we need your help to achieve that goal.”

Purpose?

What purpose does the boss of the quest have?

No, even if it’s in vain, why do you think we, the players, will help with that?

At that time, Eunbyeol carefully raised her hand.

“Hey, are you the ruler of these spirits?”

“Umm~ I don’t think the word ruler is right. Because I don’t give any orders, I don’t govern. Should I just call it the representative or the alley leader?”

The concept is a bit different from humans, the girl added.

“But you are the boss. Then wouldn’t it be the strongest being in this dimension?”

“Just because you are strong, you don’t have to rule over others. I wish I had a chance to do that.”

“…You talk as if you know me.”

“Whoops, what about it?”

A girl who asks as if playing a joke or testing it.

I couldn’t sense any malice from her bright smile.

Maybe that’s what that kid’s personality was originally.

“So, last question, are there other beings like you in this dimension?”

“As far as I know, there is none. No, it would be safe to say that there is none at all.”

In other words, that girl is the only boss.

At least it seems that there are more hidden bosses~ and no monsters appear.

“Then, this is the end of the question! Guess who I am now.”

“Oh! Wait! Hint! Just one more hint!”

“No. It was like that from the beginning.”

Eunbyeol said with a teary face.

“What can I do, Mr. Jihoon? I guess I should have asked more carefully…….”

“No, you don’t have to. I know what identity is.”

I stared at her and nodded her head.

“……Are you a ‘dream of a night that is like a dream’?”

“… ….”

The girl did not immediately respond to my words.

She just smiles quietly.

Then, on the contrary, it was Eunbyeol who was taken aback.

“Hey… it’s like a dream…, what are you talking about? What is that?”

“This is the deity who supported me. We lost contact at some point.”

“Yes? Now, hold on! Divinity… That means that child…….”

As she was talking, Eunbyeol’s eyes turned to the girl in front of her.

It gives off a mysterious atmosphere as a whole.

But no matter how you look at it, she’s a bit cute, just like a normal girl.

As expected, Eunbyul’s head shook from side to side.

“No, this is nonsense. Why is there a godhead in a place like this? No, even if there is, there is no reason to talk to us!”

If you exaggerate it a little, it’s a body shape that seems like it would collapse if you hit it.

It’s not strange if it’s not easy to believe that such a child is a god.

To be honest, even while I was talking, I couldn’t believe it.

“I don’t know the exact identity of that godhead yet. However, given the circumstances, there are many things that need to be explained.”

It was a fact that I also deduced from various clues.

The deity called ‘A Night’s Dream Like a Dream’, which was unnaturally cut off with the announcement of this quest.

A skill that suddenly appeared behind us without warning while still a child.

Above all, even the rabbits’ attitude as if they’ve known each other for a long time.

There was something that would make no sense to an ordinary player.

And there is only one existence that can affect the quest if it is not a person.

“But wasn’t this quest impossible for a godhead to intervene?”

“To be precise, the moment you enter this dimension, you completely cut off contact with the outside world. However, the story is different if it is a Godhead that has been inside this from the beginning.”

“You mean this kid…?”

“If my prediction is correct, the ‘dream of the night that is just like a dream’ right in front of my eyes must be a deity who rules this place, no, lives here.”

As I spoke, I looked away.

I didn’t say it out loud, but it was a question about whether my guess was correct.

The girl grinned and nodded her head.

“Honestly, what would you do if you didn’t know? Fortunately, you noticed.”

“I was lucky.”

Honestly, if I didn’t know that this world was a novel.

Or it would have been difficult to realize if you hadn’t seen the text.

To us, a godhead is a being completely outside the world.

Because we were nothing more than those watching us from afar.

It is similar to a real god in the sense of giving support if done well.

‘In a sense, being like a viewer is correct.’

But at the same time, this inside is in a novel.

It is also true that those who are called gods are, in the end, nothing more than characters in a novel.

In that case, it’s not that difficult to deduce the way it behaves or its identity.

Of course, it was a bit surprising that the godhead was a child.

Well, it’s not uncommon for a god in mythology to have a peculiar appearance.

“Umm, but it’s such a sudden story… ….”

“Can you believe me if I do this?”

At the same time as the girl spoke, a very familiar message popped up in front of us.

[‘A night’s dream like a dream’ smiles at you.]

A system window that contains the emotions and thoughts of a godhead.

If you’re a silver star player, you’ve probably seen it a few times, if not a lot.

If you prove that you are a god, there is no other proof like this.

“…Were the messages we see originally written by you guys like this?”

“It varies from time to time. Sometimes it goes out automatically, and sometimes it’s written on purpose. If the emotions of the godhead are intact or if the content is specific, there will be more cases where you wrote it yourself.”

…I guess I wrote the message that came out every time I cursed.

I received the coins sweetly, including the godhead right in front of me, so I don’t have any complaints.

Whether he swears or shouts that he is frustrated, the guy who gives money is the king.

“……Although I kept wondering about her identity, I never thought we would meet like this.”

“To be honest, me too. It would have been better if we never met.”

From noble mtl dot com

The player and the new person who sponsored them meet.

I don’t know about it later, but it’s not something that will happen often now.

It wasn’t long ago that I was able to sign a contract with a godhead right away.

‘Still, it’s strangely nice to see you.’

It’s not another deity, it’s a deity that gave a lot of support and talked about this and that if it was a ‘dream of a night like a dream’.

Maybe that’s why I first thought that it was strangely nice to meet you even though it was your first time meeting.

Perhaps ‘Dream of the Night Like a Dream’ feels similar to me.

Of course, it is not a story that you can trust just because it is a familiar deity.

“Yes. Anyway, I understand that you are a deity in this dimension. But why did you appear before us?”

“I will. If it’s a god, isn’t it a being that gives support or gives quests?”

At Eunbyeol’s question, ‘A Night’s Dream Like a Dream’ smiled bitterly.

“Not all godheads are incredibly great. Of course, if you’re a god in mythology, you might not know it, but a weak god like me doesn’t have that much power.”

Even if it is a god, there is definitely a difference in rank.

This is what I expected.

Because there is a difference from the coin that is sponsored right now.

“I just have a little more information and authority than you. At this point, it is safe to say that it is the difference between a lower player and a higher player.”

Of course, even that “Slightly” Would not be a small difference.

Just as the gap between us and ordinary people is enormous.

“Especially because of my position, I can’t intervene much in quests. That’s why I appeared in front of you at the risk of the future.”

“You took a risk?”

When I asked, the godhead nodded.

And with a firm expression, he said.

“As the sole divinity and representative ‘Eve’ of this dimension, I ask you all. Please save the animals here who will be sacrificed in the quest.”
