◈ 228. End (2)

The lost world was vast and expansive.

Even though Jincheol thought it was about the size of Earth and explored it, he was unable to explore all of it.

Jincheol, who had been exploring the lost world forgotten by the people of the world, finally meets his son, Hyeonjin.

Now, he was an old man.

My body was so damaged here and there that I couldn’t move properly.

Even if Hyun-jin regained her memories, there was a high chance that she wouldn’t recognize Jin-cheol if she saw his changed appearance.

Perhaps because of that, when Hyun-jin first saw her father, Jin-cheol, she thought he was one of the residents of the lost world.

Of course, the moment he faced Jincheol, Hyunjin realized that fragments of memories he had forgotten were confusing his mind.

“Who are you?”

“I am an old man who has lived before. I have no strength left, but I may be able to give you some advice that might be of help to you.”

“Advice?”

There were also strange beings in the Lost World.

You could also get advice and counsel on things that were blocked by beings like fortune tellers or prophets.

Hyunjin thought that the old man in front of him was one of those people.

“Do you know where the witch’s book is?”

You could get the Witch’s Book by collecting and collecting roulette tickets to create a Platinum Exchange Ticket, but you needed an absurdly large number of Platinum Exchange Tickets.

Since he had to use the Jincheol Roulette or purchase the necessary items with Platinum Tokens, he knew that it would take him a lifetime to collect the full number of Platinum Tokens to exchange for the Witch’s Book.

Although Cash Up was strengthened, it was difficult for Hyun Jin to collect all the exchange tickets.

Actually, Hyunjin didn’t have any expectations.

It would be difficult to find someone who knew such information.

But Hyunjin could see that the mysterious old man was smiling meaningfully.

“We have to face the harsh reality.”

“Huh? So we have to face the harsh reality?”

“You could lose someone precious.”

“Are you talking about Ruby?”

“It costs a great price. A price too great to bear.”

Hyunjin’s eyes shook violently at the words that even if he obtained the Witch’s Book, it would not be the end, and Ruby could be sacrificed.

From the moment I met her, I had doubts and questions about her identity, but we spent a long time together.

It was natural that a camaraderie would develop as we shared happy and sad times together, as if we were a married couple, and went through difficult and painful times together.

No, I went one step further and fell in love.

Ruby smiled meaningfully, as if she somehow knew her fate, but she rarely told anyone.

“Is there… any other way?”

Hyunjin asked if there was another way, as even Ruby’s power with the Witch’s Book might not be enough.

I wanted to find Jincheol as much as Hyunjin.

It was something he wanted to finish in his own time.

Jincheol also knew that Hyunjin and Ruby were in love.

I knew that Ruby’s curse was more powerful than I thought and that removing it would be nearly impossible.

Only by being with Hyun-jin, who had Cash Up, could the power of the curse be prevented from being manifested.

“There are two ways.”

“Please tell me.”

“One of them might be the path you want.”

“Can you lift the Ruby curse?”

“Maybe so. But….”

It would have been impossible to save the world.

Hyunjin thought that it was definitely that kind of thing, even though Jincheol didn’t say anything else.

“The other one.”

“Okay. I won’t listen.”

It was going to be about saving the world using a ruby ​​and then losing the ruby.

“Please tell me how to lift the Ruby curse.”

I didn’t think it was worth sacrificing my loved ones to save the world.

At the moment of destruction, Hyun-jin thought that it might be better to die together.

‘I’ve done enough.’

I thought that if I struggled to this extent, it would be enough.

So Hyunjin only asked about how to lift Ruby’s curse.

Jincheol could not bear to ignore his son’s will.

The reason he wanted to save the world was none other than his son, Hyun-jin.

He knows that he cannot criticize Hyun-jin for choosing to save the woman he loves rather than saving the world.

So Jincheol told Hyunjin about how to lift Ruby’s curse.

It was a method I found out by wandering around the lost world.

Hyunjin nodded at Jincheol’s words and then turned around.

The old man in front of me seemed to know where the witch’s book was, but I thought that if I heard it, I would never be able to turn back.

But Ruby seemed to think differently.

“You found a way to break my curse?”

“Yeah. I found an old man. He told me.”

Ruby quickly realized who the old man Hyunjin was talking about was.

Then, he might be able to lift his curse.

But Ruby knew what it meant for her curse to be lifted.

Ruby knew that Hyunjin’s abilities alone would be too much to handle the meteorite, which even an artificial intelligence with immense power could not handle.

Ruby realized that she was not trying to save the world, but rather herself.

Ruby sighed helplessly, knowing that no matter what she said, she wouldn’t be convinced.

Ruby, who thought her fate was too cruel, eventually accepted it.

‘Is there still time?’

It seemed like such a cruel fate to Hyunjin, who had a stern expression on her face, but Ruby ultimately decided that there was nothing she could do.

I thought that even though we loved each other so much, it should never happen.

However, Ruby accepted Hyunjin’s love after Hyunjin promised to lift her curse.

“I… really want to get married?”

“Yeah. You don’t like it?”

“No. I’m fine.”

I thought that Ruby’s heart was opened to save me from my cursed fate.

It was such a dreamlike time.

And that time was enough to bring about the fruits of love for Hyunjin and Ruby.

Hyunjin was so happy, but he soon realized that it was the beginning of a tragedy.

“My son. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”

A parent’s heart can only be known after giving birth to a child.

Hyun-jin, who had lost interest in whether the world would be destroyed or not, now has a strong motivation to save the world.

“Have you found a way to break the curse?”

“Yeah… yeah.”

“Find the Witch’s Book.”

“Ha…but.”

“I want to protect the world my son will live in. Please.”

I couldn’t bring myself to refuse my wife’s request.

“That… that could be… I don’t know where the witch’s book is.”

“Go see your father again.”

“…….”

Through Ruby’s words, Hyunjin was able to realize that the old man she had met was her biological father, Jincheol.

No, I didn’t even know that I had already guessed it.

I was just ignoring it.

Hyunjin felt tears of blood flowing down his face as he looked at his son sleeping soundly in his wife’s arms.

Eventually, Hyun-jin traced his memories and headed to a house in the lost world.

It was a place I tried not to recall, but I remember it so clearly.

It was originally a new map.

“Can’t we make a new map and have just the three of us live happily there?”

He thought about that too, but Hyunjin realized that he couldn’t break Ruby’s determined will.

Hyunwoo, his own younger brother, also had a nephew.

He also said that he had a cursed fate.

A frightening thought flashed through Hyunjin’s mind, thinking about sacrificing his nephew, but he soon had to shake his head.

The sacrifice of his nephew could appease the wrath of God, but it was only a temporary expedient, and the sacrifices had to continue.

Moreover, even the gods could not guarantee that it would be effective in the face of a great crisis that would lead to their annihilation.

So Hyun-jin arrived at a cozy house in a picturesque landscape.

And I could see a familiar face in it.

“Are you here? Did you eat?”

“uh….”

“I’m sorry. How could I forget you?”

Choi Yu-han, the former CEO of the missing Footsteps Group, meets Hyun-jin.

It seemed like he already knew it was coming.

“Just wait a moment. The food is ready.”

Choi Yu-han prepared a simple meal at an outdoor table.

Hyunjin sat at the table without saying anything.

“What about your father?”

“Ah. Your father went to find what you need. He’ll be back soon.”

When his mother told him that she had gone to find the witch’s book herself, Hyun-jin began to wonder if it would be okay.

“You are a strong person. You don’t have to worry too much.”

After saying that, Hyunjin couldn’t say anything anymore.

Jincheol also came back at that time.

“I’m here.”

“came.”

“ah!”

“Were you eating?”

“Come and sit down.”

“I was already hungry.”

Jincheol took off the veil that was covering his body.

Then, my pants started to flutter in the wind and I felt a strange sense of discomfort.

“All…legs.”

“Ah. Legs. I’ll tell you later. Come on! Let’s eat.”

Jincheol sat down in his chair, not caring much about the surprised Hyunjin.

Something like an iron pipe was slightly visible beneath the hem of his trousers.

It seemed like both legs were like that.

Hyunjin ate with her parents without saying a word.

After the meal, Choi Yu-han brought out some fruit that he had cut up to be eaten as dessert.

Hyunjin couldn’t even touch the fruit that was brought out like that.

There was so much I wanted to say.

But all those words didn’t come out of my mouth.

The long silence was so long, but Jincheol and Choi Yuhan waited.

“Do you have the Witch’s Book?”

“okay.”

Jincheol took out the witch’s book, which gave off an eerie feeling for some reason, and placed it in front of Hyunjin.

As Jincheol, who couldn’t use the ability of Cash Up, he really had to risk his life.

Moreover, it was so good that I was lucky.

Jincheol had used up all the coupons he had, so there was nothing he could do.

Hyunjin stared blankly at the witch’s book and then closed her eyes tightly.

“sorry.”

“What is there to be sorry about?”

“Rather, we should be sorry.”

Hyunjin also knew that although she felt resentful, it was something that couldn’t be helped.

Surely there might have been a better way.

But the problem was that I couldn’t find a good way, and it was impossible to turn back time even with Cash Up’s ability.

“Isn’t there any other way?”

“sorry.”

No matter how much I searched, I couldn’t find Jincheol.

Now, Hyun-jin would know more than Jin-cheol.

Earth’s civilization was still being maintained.

Rather, it seemed like they had adapted and were developing again.

There were also signs that they were trying to leave Earth and go into space.

Although we do not yet have the technology to leave the solar system, we do not intend to disappear without being able to resist a meteorite flying from far away in space.

Of course, not all Earthlings were able to escape, terraforming the planet wasn’t easy, and surviving for generations on a spaceship wasn’t easy.

But I was in the middle of throwing a tantrum.

Nevertheless, there was no other way.

After Hyunjin finished eating and got her hands on the Witch’s Book, she said goodbye to her parents.

Was going to find it.

I was planning to use the Witch’s Book as a last resort, so I planned to find a way during the remaining time.
