Episode 371 Black Star (4)
Kang Hyeon-byeol.
My ex-girlfriend who was 4 years younger than .
While we were preparing for a job, he confessed first and we dated for about 3 years.
Well, that’s not what’s important right now.
Swoop.
I raise my eyes again and face Hyeonbyeol.
For so reason, the eyes looking at are cold.
Perhaps the reason is…
“Does it catch your eye in this situation?”
“Keuheum…….”
No, what to do with the gaze.
I hurriedly ca to my senses and started coping.
“Don’t get wrong. I just checked.”
“check?”
“Here, the basic outfit follows the self you think of yourself.”
“So… is this what I think I am?”
“That’s it.”
If you want to have other costus, you have to buy them with GP.
That’s how I got the short-sleeved T-shirt in addition to the sportswear I’m wearing now.
Apparently, the basic outfit is a little uncomfortable—
“Then what about you?”
“……?”
“What was your basic outfit?”
“Uh……”
It was a navy blue suit that stuck to the body.
It was the clothes my ex-girlfriend bought for to celebrate getting a job.
But…
“This is what I’m wearing right now. This was my basic outfit.”
It’s kind of embarrassing to say that.
If you say you were wearing it in the yard you broke up with, then it looks like your heart is still there, right?
“…Hmm, if it’s like an older brother, that’s the answer.”
Fortunately, Hyeonbyeol showed no doubts and readily agreed.
However, I have a little question here.
“Like ? What’s like ?”
“Why are you asking so sensitively? I just ant to look comfortable.”
“Is that so?”
Ahh, I can’t even show my energy in front of him.
Is it because I committed so many sins?
“By the way… do you have anything to say to ?”
“…It’s been a while. Hyeonbyeol-ah!”
“Is that over?”
“Uh…”
What more could there be?
oh i didn’t ask that
“So how did you co here?”
At my question, Hyeonbyeol quietly glared at , then sighed as if resigned.
“I still haven’t broken that habit of running away.”
I just pretended not to hear.
“It’s okay. Now that I’m here, I want to know what’s important about all of that…”
“That’s right. What’s important about the past? They say that what’s more valuable than gold is right now…”
I felt a chill sowhere. .
“Why stop? Don’t continue.”
“It’s just. Apologizing seems to be the first thing.”
“…….”
“I’m sorry about what happened then. This is the truth.”
When I erased the playfulness from my voice and apologized, Hyeonbyeol looked at with slightly surprised eyes.
“Sothing… has changed a bit. Oppa.”
“It has no choice but to do that… But is that why you accept the apology?”
“If it’s an apology, that’s fine. I’ve said it before, but now what’s the point? It’s not really sothing anyone should apologize for…” ”
That’s… that’s right.”
After exchanging a few words, there was an awkward silence.
Well, it’s worth it.
It’s like reuniting with my ex-girlfriend, who broke up a year ago in real ti, in a different world far away.
“Anyway, I was really surprised. I never thought I’d see you here.”
“Really? I thought we’d et soday.”
“…huh?”
“I’ve been thinking about it ever since I woke up here. Oppa must be sowhere in this world. I also felt a little relieved.”
“relief……?”
“The story of the disappearance. I was very surprised when I heard it. I thought maybe I had a bad idea…”
Ah, that could have seed that way.
It’s been more than a year since we broke up like that, but I feel grateful to you for worrying about sowhere.
“So… how did you get here?”
This is the third question already asked because the conversation keeps falling into three thousand fours.
“Looking at it, you’re far from the ga…….”
Fortunately, this ti, Hyunbyeol gave the right answer.
“That… I got a little interested in it after I broke up with my brother. Why did he fall for it so much because it was so much fun?”
Sothing feels new.
When we were dating, I used to scold him for asking to play such a ga on up to three computers.
no wait.
“Then… did you break the original?”
“Ay, how do you break that? Later, after my brother disappeared, I happened to know that there was a cheat version, so I did it.”
“Then… how many tis did you wake up?”
“Thirty tis.”
“30 tis…?”
30 tis is quite a top magnification.
It’s a world overflowing with kids who can’t break that and play high magnification.
“Looks like you worked really hard…”
“No, it broke when I said it was the 10th edition? Maybe it was because I was playing the original edition, so it was easy. There are things I learned from watching my older brother play the ga in the past.”
“Ah…….”
Co to think of it, when I found sothing like Hidden Peace, there were quite a few things I would explain to Hyeonbyeol and brag about.
He was such a smart kid, so everyone would have rembered him.
“Why is your expression suddenly dark?”
“…can you see that?”
“It’s okay. How long have we been together?”
I pondered for a while and then answered honestly. “It’s not a big deal. I just wanted you to listen to without
complaining about
things that I wouldn’t be interested in right now…”
The answer ca back from Hyeonbyeol after a short period of ti.
“… oppa, you’ve really changed a lot.”
“Because a lot of ti has passed.”
“That’s… yes, that’s right…”
There was another awkward air, but it was short-lived. When I was asked if I knew what would happen after my disappearance, Hyeonbyeol told what he knew.
Briefly, it is as follows.
After a month, the company filed a missing person report, and the police ca to find you, so he found out about it too.
And…
“You said you t my mother…?”
“Yes. At the police station.”
“What does that woman say…?”
“He didn’t speak to directly.”
“But sothing happened.”
“…….”
“It’s okay, so tell .”
At my words, Hyeonbyeol wondered if he was worried, but he carefully opened his mouth.
“After talking about the legacy…they asked the police if there was any way to report the death before the disappearance period expired.”
“Ha……”
I roughly expected it, but it feels so dirty.
How much money will I have saved up?
I’m stupid for what I did
hard.
As I unknowingly tightened my chin, Hyeonbyeol comforted .
“Still, 5 years is plenty of ti. It wasn’t an accident, and there was no evidence that he was a target of a cri, so it wasn’t treated as a special disappearance.”
“What’s different?”
“Special disappearances can be inherited even after one year.”
“I see.”
That’s a little comforting.
Even thinking about it, it was kind of funny.
food.
Should I say Hyunbyeol-like consolation?
Co to think of it, in the past, rather than sympathizing with re words, I found positive aspects and comforted them logically.
He plays a big part in forming my current personality.
“So what next?”
“I don’t know. I was brought here three months after my brother disappeared.”
“what……?”
I was genuinely surprised.
Ti has been twisted due to fragnts of records, but if you simply calculate ti, it has already been 3 years and 9 months since I beca Bjorn Yandel.
And since the ti ratio was 5:1…
‘Nine months have passed since I disappeared in reality.’
In other words, it would an that Hyeonbyeol survived for over two and a half years in this world.
Thinking about it, I wondered about one thing.
“But why did you co to the community only now?”
“Because I’m not an explorer. I guess I didn’t catch your eye.”
“You’re not an explorer…?”
“Yes. Does it make sense to fight a monster like that in real life after playing a little ga like that? I just got a job at a decent place and made money.”
“Seeing you say that, you look human.”
“Doesn’t that look like your brother?”
I was speechless at Hyeonbyeol’s question.
I was worried about whether I could tell you this personal information.
But did you feel that hesitation in that mont?
“So you don’t want to tell .”
Hyeonbyeol’s eyes widened.
***
The eyes I saw several tis when we were dating.
I was embarrassed by those eyes, and I had to relieve myself sohow, but I didn’t have to do that now.
To put it bluntly, you’re a man right now, aren’t you?
Hyeonbyeol, who was always rational, couldn’t be unaware of that fact.
“Did Seon-oppa draw first?”
“okay.”
“…Okay. I won’t ask about that in the future. Okay?”
Like Hyunbyul, he coolly convinced .
Was it a bit sad though?
“Instead, don’t even think about listening to . I won’t tell you even if I die.”
ok yes this is right
There was no room for refutation, so I nodded my head without regret.
Hyeonbyeol bit his lip at this.
“It seems you really don’t care about anything.”
“If you hear that, I have to tell you too.”
Instead of being evasive, I answered honestly.
Hey, he knows exactly when I entered, right? Just telling people their race will drastically reduce the number of candidates.
“…….”
“…….”
Silence ensued as we just looked at each other like that.
“…Let’s sit down for a mont.”
“…yes, that’s better.”
It was a bit like standing still, so I first sat down on the sofa provided.
After sitting together, there was nothing to talk about.
So I just started with sothing light.
“Isn’t this your first community?”
“yes.”
How could I have received an invitation if I had a normal job in this world? I was curious about that, but I swallowed my curiosity.
“Should I give you so GP if needed? It’s possible to exchange it for cash at the exchange.”
“It’s okay. I can earn that much on my own. Besides, the real thing will definitely move when it is cashed out, so wouldn’t it be possible for your identity to be revealed?”
“That’s… that’s right.”
In fact, I only said it to open up a conversation, but I was going to stop it if I tried to cash in the GP.
“Your brother… must have beco an explorer, right?”
“It did.”
We decided not to say anything that could reveal each other’s identities, but I readily admitted it.
The conversation itself won’t be able to continue until I refuse this level of topic.
“But why are you laughing?”
“It’s just that. My brother… I can’t imagine fighting monsters bloody.”
“It worked.”
“It must have been difficult.”
“You?”
“I’m just okay. You’re more comfortable here at work, isn’t it?”
Well, he’s the smartest guy I’ve ever t.
He must have adapted to this world right away—
“Really. It was easy to make capital in the early days because it was not computerized properly.”
If it is
capital, does it an that he embezzled now?
..”
“Brother.”
“… Huh?” “In that sense
, why don’t we stop
looking at each other and just get back together?
” No, let’s join forces. I’ll help you from behind the scenes.”
“Help?”
“My goal after becoming financially free was to acquire power. And lately I’ve had a pretty high line. I’ll use that power to push my brother.”
“What’s the price?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Instead, when I go back later, oppa hugs too. Oppa’s goal isn’t to go back either.”
“Return…….” When
I blurted out my words, Hyunbyeol changed his expression as if he felt sothing else.
“Oppa… Are you sure you want to continue living here? ”
I couldn’t find a reason to deny it.
“After all my hard work, there’s nothing waiting for to go back.”
“……Mother!”
“Huh? My mother?”
“If my brother stays here, all the rent will go there!” Oh, that’s what
I was talking about
.
“Oh, that definitely motivates a little .
” No! Oppa, are you really going to live here?”
“Why are you excited? There’s nothing I can’t live without. isn’t that I have more friends from this side?”
Hyeonbyeol’s mouth hardened at his words to lighten the mood.
Then , after a long ti lag.
Go?”
Hyeonbyeol
exclaid
with a shocked expression
