Admission is nothing (112)
Lesson 23. Even if it’s a lie – 7 I
was a half-joking half-jokingly worried that if I did well, I would have to go to room 28 and fight a continent-wide battle, but fortunately or unfortunately, room 27 is right next. It was Room 30, the shelter of Eden.
“Ah, I’m tired~!”
Banyuwon threw himself into something that resembled a huge, fluffy cushion that appeared in the center of Eden.
Then, surprisingly, from the part that came into contact with it, the fatigue seemed to go away miraculously, and a refreshing feeling spread throughout the body.
When I looked closely, all the grime and dust on my body had disappeared.
“Oh oh…? I guess this is also a piece.”
“is it so? Eight.”
Lucille threw herself on the cushion already lying on the semi-yuwon, revealing her desire rather blatantly.
Naturally, her body overlapped with him, but she pretended not to know and enjoyed the comfort of the cushion.
“Hey, this is really good.”
“I don’t know what you guys are, but if I like you that much, then I can…”
“Yu-won’s fatigue hasn’t fully healed yet. Light, please wait a moment.”
“Then there is nothing you can do.”
“Yeah, I can’t help it. If I give Yu-Won a massage… Heh…”
Ruchel secretly reached out and touched Ban Yu-Won’s back and shoulders.
Wright’s question flew to Banyuwon, who began to seriously consider how far he should accept the desire of this beast, which is getting bolder day by day.
“Is it okay if I didn’t kill all of them half ago?”
“huh? Ah, the wings of justice.”
The end of Room 27.
Because the Contractors of the Claws, whose identities were revealed because of forcibly trying to summon the night, were able to move without moving even at night, they were forced to fight the Contractors of the Wings, who were proven to have special powers.
The contractors of the claws were basically powerful at night, but during the day they were no different from ordinary humans, so they were killed by the contractors of the wings one-sidedly.
The problem is after they all die.
Many of the wing’s contractors survived, but Banyuwon didn’t take any action against them.
Naturally, room 27 was treated as clear, and a door (shift) leading to room 30 appeared… Ban Yu-won ignored Count Durk’s words to go and meet the king, and led the party to this place.
“I had to do more trouble to kill the survivors in that situation. you know? There is a condition that you cannot go first.”
“That’s true, but I somehow annihilated Room 26…”
Light is really pure and honest.
There was a time when I thought it was foolish, but now I also wanted Light to remain that way.
“Because I knew that clearing this up until Room 26 would lead to the next room. But I had a hunch that this was the last time. So, even if you leave them alive, it’s not a particularly unsettling factor, right?”
“Is that why you survived…?”
“Yum… Moreover, they had already lost their hostility towards us. If I had pushed forcibly in such a situation, the TOP would not have properly acknowledged my achievements.”
Dok-go-yeon, who started eating the fruit of Eden without paying attention to anything else that made up room 30, helped Ban Yu-won.
“No matter how fake it is, there’s no need to kill something that doesn’t have to be killed.”
“The originality of the constellation must have increased.”
“I feel like I’ve already lost enough to defeat my enemies.”
“Well, yes, it was embarrassing, but in the end, only the NPCs were harmed, right? If I were that Constellation…”
Dokgoyeon, who had eaten a fruit, sucked her finger with the fruit water on one side as if regretting that she had eaten a piece of fruit.
“If there is a next opportunity, then I will take Banyuwon as a contractor.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Apart from the fact that you pretended to be yourself, you really are the perfect candidate? Because he handles light, he has the aptitude of a referee, and even his intelligence is excellent.”
“The last one doesn’t exist in that Constellation.”
Ruchel, who was rubbing Ban Yu-Won’s shoulder, added with a delighted voice.
“Constellations must have the same nature as humans to search for things they don’t have.”
“It really is.”
The two women began to giggle.
Banyuwon and Light met each other’s eyes as if they couldn’t understand it.
“Oh, there’s one more thing I wanted to ask.”
“Ask everything.”
Banyuwon was quite merciful to him as he knew that Light’s heart was not so comfortable throughout this exploration.
“Why did you refuse the king’s call? In the first place, if the work was successful, the king would directly congratulate him.”
“Ah- that’s it.”
Hearing the answer would make Light feel bad again.
But while he was thinking about it, Light realized the answer by himself this time.
“Did you ever try to hurt us?”
“…maybe. It must have been a ‘trap’ of the Tower disguised as a reward.”
“I managed to realize it, Light.”
“huh. Listening to the class agitation, I definitely thought it was a bit dangerous.”
Even the chamberlain must have thought it was dangerous.
He gained the support of hundreds of thousands of citizens, exercised the authority to subdue the Contractors of the Constellation head-on, and induced them to fight in front of many citizens.
It is terrifying to imagine what would have happened if Ban Yu-Won had picked up an additional nobleman on the spot and declared that he was an enemy.
So, as long as the risk factor of being a contractor of the claws disappeared, Banyuwon would have been nothing more or less than another risk factor in the eyes of the king and nobles.
“I still can’t believe it.”
Wright pursed his lips and murmured.
“It was all fake. To think we had to put our heart and brains against those fakes.”
“I’m glad it’s fake. Because we were able to simulate in a way that relatively hurts our hearts.”
“Is this an ordeal deliberately given by the Tower to help us grow?”
“of course. Whether this is growth or just realization and adaptation to human nature will be somewhat different.”
Ban Yu-Won got up from the cushion with Ruchel and ate the fruit from the tree.
“it’s good. You eat too.”
“Half I made up my mind.”
He said in a strong light tone that he would not eat the fruit he was told to eat.
“Even if I meet NPCs in the tower in the future, I will not treat them as fake. Everyone will think of you as a real human being.”
“okay?”
“Oh no, I’m not trying to stop you. You always do what’s best for us.”
Recalling his reaction to Ban Yu-Won at the beginning of Room 23 at the time of the ‘trial’, he was ashamed to say that. Light cleared his throat and put on a serious expression.
“Just because it’s fake means I won’t kill them easily. It’s not that I won’t kill them in a situation where they should be killed, so… I want to properly shoulder the weight of my thoughts and actions against them and the consequences of that, instead of lightly shaking them off.”
His tone was somewhat gibberish, but Ban Yu-Won understood exactly what he wanted to say.
He understands and respects the attitude of the party towards the NPCs in the tower, but he himself still has no choice but to treat them for real.
“I will choose and receive all the stress that I do not need to receive.”
“Because I don’t think so… can’t it?”
“no it’s okay.”
Ban Yu-won laughed.
Since he and Lucille, who are alone, accepted the existence of NPCs too easily, I thought that it would be good for at least one of the members to take a serious approach to the virtual existence created by TOP.
If he had been Light before, he would have thought it was dangerous… But now, knowing that he respected the party more than himself, it was fine.
“Maybe there is something else to be gained by taking it so seriously. They say that hardships that don’t kill you make you stronger.”
“I’m not going to die!”
“It looks like a slug. It’s okay to pass by a little faster, but because the speed is so slow, it’s like bumping into each one and hurting.”
“what?!”
Light gets excited by Dok-go-yeon’s sudden words.
She laughed as Ban Yu-Won and Ruchel stood up and crushed the empty cushion with their buttocks.
“It was quite a compliment.”
“lie!”
“This cushion is so refreshing. Can I take it?”
“Don’t talk back…! And then it was my turn!”
In the end, Light intervened somewhat and took half of Dokgo Yeon and half of the cushion.
Will you be good friends? He chuckled and looked at the other structures that appeared in Room 30.
I had a rough premonition, but because the exploration from room 23 to room 27 was so spectacular, the reward for room 30 was plentiful even though rooms 28 and 29 were skipped.
There was a large cushion that washed away all the filth from the body and even recovered from fatigue (it was stuck to the floor and couldn’t be removed), as well as a stream that one of the previous party members had mentioned.
[Regeneration of Blood Wine]
“I expected that, but it really wasn’t normal alcohol.”
It’s a simple list of concepts, but just looking at these two things comes to mind.
All in all, alcohol seems to be similar to wine…
Ban Yu-won put the alcohol in his own water bottle, and strangely, when he saw that the alcohol in the water bottle turned into water, he gained some certainty, but decided not to put it in his mouth. .
‘Anyway, I’m telling you to be satisfied with what you drink here. Like the fruit of Eden…’
So, like the fruit of Eden, the concept could be taken out and compressed.
Ban Yu-won put his thoughts into action and achieved satisfactory results.
It has the downside of getting drunk if you drink a lot, but it was the moment when you obtained the most plausible potion since you came to this fantasy world.
Just then, Dokgoyeon’s voice flew in from the other side.
“I want Banyuwon to make jam soon. There is such a thing as marmalade.”
“I just left it to you.”
However, Ban Yu-won, contrary to his words, obediently made elixir jam with marmalade.
The difference is that while all the jams made before are the same, a rather interesting concept was attached to the reaction of the mutants, and that was the ‘extreme drug’.
The first time you eat it, the effect is very good, but if you eat it consecutively, the effect quickly diminishes, and eventually side effects may appear.
In an option that can’t be said to be just plain good, Banyuwon became a good opportunity to firmly recognize the negative side of mutants.
“What did you say?! That’s… not so good for those of us who eat jam every day.”
“Calm down, Dokgoyeon. There is still a lot of jam left over from Room 20. Besides, if you eat this at regular intervals, it’s okay.”
“Oh that.”
After hearing the explanation of the elixir marmalade, Ruchel made an expression that seemed to have reminded her of something, but she couldn’t say it easily because she was watching Dok-go-yeon’s notice.
In the meantime, Light, who was enjoying the cushion, spoke without thinking.
“If you feed it once, the effect is the greatest? Then you can feed the club members. It’s a shame to give it every day, but it’s only once.”
“What did you say!”
Dokgoyeon reacted as expected and pushed Light onto the cushion.
Why didn’t Ruchel say the same thing even though he thought of the same thing as Wright? The answer came easily when he saw Wright rolling on the floor.
Dokgoyeon is very sensitive to having her sweetness stolen by others!
“I don’t have enough to eat, so who are you telling me to give in to? This sweetness… no elixir!”
“I’ll reach Room 40 before that anyway, so don’t worry too much, Dok-go-yeon. And…”
“Are you even talking about that?”
“half…!”
Do not look at Wright with the eyes of emotion as if he were looking at a close friend who sacrificed himself to save himself.
“Don’t be too sad because you might be able to get your hands on the fruit of Eden again elsewhere.”
“Somewhere else? No way… ah.”
Dok-go-yeon barely calmed down when he remembered that Ban Yu-won had the sole right to explore.
“But I don’t have a stake in that expedition, so you’re saying you’re going to get elixir jam for me?”
“What are you saying? The reason why I am now so strong is because of you.”
“Ah….”
As Dok-go-yeon has few opportunities to flatter her, when the opportunity comes, she exaggerates her gratitude as naturally as possible.
For example, in reality, he thinks that Dokgo-yeon’s contribution to his strength is 30% to 40%, but he casually raises it to 50%.
Dokgoyeon’s mood improved considerably with his use of advanced skills.
“Kuh hmm. If that’s the case, well… I don’t feel bad that you think of me that way.”
“Whoa, I lived.”
After all, there was nothing wrong with it, but because he had touched Dok-go-yeon’s temper, Light, who had been imprisoned for 10 years, said with a clear cough.
“Then why don’t we open that treasure chest soon?”
I asked why he didn’t say that, but Ban Yu-won smiled and turned his gaze to the main dish in Room 30.
placed in a corner of the room.
A treasure chest made of copper and framed in gold.
The treasure chest corresponding to the upper and lower levels of the Tower of Babel was waiting to be opened.
