After hearing the details, I was resolved to do her favor.

I think the tigers in the mansion would hate it if I do so, but I’m still going to do it.

Although it’s a little dangerous, everyone will be happy because it would ensure Hwang Jiho’s safety in the end.

“I will do it.”

“I thought you’d contemplate a little, but it seems like Hwangho-nim will suffer.”

“I think you told me because you trusted me. That’s why you gave me the fate of the unknown.”

The silver shadow seemed sorry at my reply.

“I was originally going to leave the fate of the unknown to someone else. But you’re here.”

Can’t the fate of the unknown be used only by those with the Destiny skill?

I checked the Fate of the Unknown card in my hand.

[Item Name] Fate of the Unknown

[Type] Weapon

[Rarity] N~EX

[Skill Level] 0%

[Effect] Undecided

[Explanation]

A weapon whose name, rarity, and effectiveness change based on the user’s experience, expectations, imaginations, goals, and beliefs.

Only those with Destiny can use it.

I clearly remember that in the item’s explanation.

I don’t know if more people in this world have the skill, or if those who came from another world automatically have it.

“May I ask you a question about the other person?”

“It’s hard to answer. It’s hard to say unless it’s about me.”

There seemed to be a limit to what the silver shadow could talk about.

Other than herself or her request, she can’t seem to say much.

“You don’t have to worry about that person. I’ve relieved you of one of your troubles, so you can move on.”

“My trouble?”

“The relationship between the two protagonists has become awkward.”

The two protagonists…

Joo Soohyuk and Ahn Dain!

Well, it’s a serious concern that the title hero and heroine are becoming estranged.

I don’t know how she helped the two, but I believed the hero could absolutely solve it.

“You have a lot on your mind, but you better hurry up and enjoy the festival with those two.”

“Are you talking about Joo Soohyuk and Ahn Dain?”

“Yes.”

A consensus began to spring up.

She and I had a lot of things in common, but honestly, it didn’t feel real.

However, with the mention of Ahn Dain and Joo Soohyuk, I finally felt like she was indeed trying to save the world.

“Do you like those two?”

“Yes.”

I answered without hesitation.

I talk all day about how perfect and cool the two main characters are if I had the chance.

“The scope of my intervention is limited, so please help both of them well.”

“Yes, please leave it to me.”

Maybe she has a relationship with the two of them?

When I tried to ask another question, I felt a stinging sensation as if an electric current was flowing in my body.

Looking at the back of my hand, my skin became repeatedly dyed silver before returning to its original color.

The density of energy waves was so high that erosion proceeded.

She began to notice my condition.

“We have to say goodbye now. One last thing, I want to ask you a very personal favor.”

“Please go ahead.”

“Toyeon unnie misses Eunho-nim very much. If Hwangho-nim and Eunho-nim will allow it, arrange a meeting with them.”

The three children call Ok Toyeon unnie as well.

On the other hand, the kids and Eunho all call me hyung.

It was somewhat of a similar setup.

‘Ok Toyeon hid Eunho’s descendants from the Tiger Clan for thousands of years. She looks sloppy, but she can keep a really important secret.’

Ok Toyeon has a loose mouth and is sometimes lazy, but she has been thorough with keeping Eunho’s secret.

On the contrary, it may be less suspicious.

I’ll need permission from the tigers, but I was optimistic about it.

“I’ll ask about it.”

“Thank you.:

As if I was being sent away, the subspace began to gradually break down.

It seemed to take time because I had never been in a subspace triggered by the Destiny skill for such a long time.

But there was something I wanted to check before we said goodbye.

“How about you?”

“…”

She didn’t need to clarify what I was asking.

My thoughts seem to be conveyed.

Ok Toyeon misses Eunho, but what about her?

“I would’ve made the same choice if I were in Eunho-nim’s position.”

Eunho’s choice is to keep her out of contact with the Tiger Clan until she dies.

Anyone being in such a position, not even receiving a name, would be resentful…

But she talked about Eunho with no signs of malice.

She just looked lonely.

“Then…!”

Fwaaa!

Before I could finish, the subspace tore down and her figure disappeared.

I felt like she let me out deliberately stealing the time for me to speak.

Then, someone surprised at my appearance spoke.

“Uh, hi…”

It was Joo Soori.

She seemed to stop reading after detecting my presence.

She was sitting buried in an armchair, seemingly engrossed in a book.

I looked around and found that I was in a different area of the library from where I was searching earlier.

This wasn’t where Hwang Jiho and I were searching.

“Uh… Where did the blindfolded person go?”

It seems like Joo Soori was with Thoth just now.

So was it Thoth who picked the book for her?

It must be fun enough to be mesmerized seeing that it was a book selected by the guardian deity of knowledge, science, and language.

Joo Soori realized that I didn’t know that someone was with her just now as her face turned blue from embarrassment.

She held the book tightly in her arms.

“He probably went back to where he’s from. I’ll call Joo Soohyuk.”

“Soohyuk oppa? Oh, are you his friend? Oh, the Nameless Supernova…!”

When I sent the message through my device, Joo Soori’s device started ringing like crazy.

Communication must’ve returned just now.

“Are you alright, Jo Euishin!”

Hwang Jiho arrived as soon as I sent the message.

He must’ve used his power as the Guardian, his eyes still having traces of golden light and the shape of a beast.

He came here after keeping an eye on the entire territory after I disappeared.

“How did you get here? Is it because of that power?”

Hwang Jiho was beside me when the Destiny skill was invoked so he must’ve felt it.

He looked at me, still not toning down his energy waves.

“You don’t seem to be hurt anywhere. You found Joo Soori too… What the hell happened?”

“She’s reading a book recommended by a superior being.”

“…What does that superior being think this place is?”

Even though this is the Tiger Clan’s territory, wouldn’t it have been possible for the unnamed hero to come here?

Hwang Jiho, who didn’t know what happened, looked very displeased.

Joo Soori looked scared for a second.

She seems to have recognized Hwang Jiho from the Hwangmyeong Group.

This old man should at least try to hide his identity if he’s going to go around looking like a high school student.

Tak, tak!

Several people ran to where we were at after I sent them the coordinates.

Joo Soohyuk and Ahn Dain, who seemed to have been the closest, arrived first.

“Soori-ah! Are you okay?”

“I’m okay. Sorry… Uhm, I was going to read a book for a second because I saw one that caught my attention, but somehow I got several recommendations and…”

She was accompanied by a lot of people during the tour, but the situation was obviously odd.

Simply doing something else for a second couldn’t have led to this situation.

Players who participated in the search may have noticed that Joo Soori’s disappearance involved something that was beyond human power.

Joo Soohyuk kindly soothed the shaken Joo Soori and asked how she was doing.

She was also next to Ahn Dain, and when she held her hand out to calm Joo Soori, the young Joo immediately held her hand.

Joo Soohyuk asked her questions, and Ahn Dain would also ask some.

‘The silver hero really helped the two!’

It was good to see the awkwardness disappear between Joo Soohyuk and Ahn Dain.

“…A blindfolded person gave you a book?”

“It must be Thoth. His favorite human is a teacher at this school, so he sometimes appears.”

“Oh, the being that gave Professor Jegal an order. Did he recommend you a book, Soori?”

Joo Soohyuk didn’t mention anything, but he seemed to think that it was strange.

The superior being could’ve simply shown the book to Joo Soori, but she was called to a place that was hard to find.

It would be stranger if he didn’t suspect it.

Before I could make a cover-up, Hwang Jiho spoke.

“It’s difficult to fathom a superior being’s intentions.”

“Yeah, I guess so…”

Superior beings do a lot of things that deviate from human common sense.

It was the same in the age of myths, and even in the world where collisions with otherworlds occur.

Joo Soohyuk accepted Hwang Jiho’s words.

“Thank you, Euishin-ah! I knew you’d find her.”

“Don’t mention it. It’s a relief we found her.”

This time, I really didn’t do anything.

On the contrary, Joo Soori went missing to lure me so I should be apologizing, but instead, I am being thanked.

Still, I couldn’t explain the situation but I had no choice but to accept the gratitude.

“I owe you a lot.”

“Thank you so much, Euishin-ah. It’s a relief that we found her quickly since the air in the basement isn’t so good.”

Joo Soogyeom and Oh Hyeji, who were on the first floor, joined us and thanked me.

Somehow, all the credit for finding Joo Soori was given to me.

It was hard to hear because I know that I shouldn’t be receiving thanks.

Hwang Jiho must’ve guessed the situation roughly and know my situation, but the old man only smiled as I was being bombarded with greetings.

His anger seemed to have calmed down though.

“Uh… thank you for finding me. I would’ve been stuck here reading books forever if Euishin oppa didn’t come.”

Joo Soori, who was still holding Ahn Dain’s hand, thanked me as well.

She gave me her device code, saying that she wants to give me something in return later.

At this rate, I might collect the device codes of all of the Joo-Oh Group.

The missing case was concluded with the cover-up that Thoth called a talented young player to recommend a book.

However, Hwang Jiho didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving things at that.

After the search party disbanded, Hwang Jiho spoke to me.

“Let’s hear what happened, Jo Euishin.”

…How much should I say to this old man?

I’d have to tell him, but I haven’t sorted out things in my head yet.

I decided to ask for time.

“Let’s roam around the festival.”

“Jo Euishin…”

Hwang Jiho grumbled but still followed me.

When we were taking a shortcut to get to the third-year area…

We encountered suspicious people in the dark.

“Geuhk! I can’t believe there are people like this.”

“But people are better than ghosts. Let’s be positive!”

“Don’t give up. As long as there are still ghosts in that old building, our exorcism is not over!”

I’ve never seen them before, but I immediately recognized the group.

They were the Class Zero alumni. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
