Chapter 840 The First Step Toward Return, Eight. (1/2)
“By any chance, do you want to continue living here? ”
As soon as it came out,
“… What? ”
At the same time, I doubted my ears, reflexively.
Did I just hear that wrong?
“Don't you want to continue living here? Home... No, don't you want to go back to the old world and sit on the Hall Plane? I mean, as a user. ”
Tr a n s lat ed by jp m tl.ｃ o m However, the older brother said in a random manner.
It wasn't a mistake to hear. The sound of the word ‘old world’ is quite disturbing. Why would he suddenly say something like that? With what intention?
No matter how much I think about it. I'm confused.
After all, my brother was a creepy face. I feel like I'm observing my reaction just by looking at the slither.
“You're not angry. ”
“All of a sudden... What?”
“I knew you'd jump if I brought it up. I was a little bit cranky. But I'm surprised. ”
“Are you serious? ” T r an s l a t ed by Ｊp m t l .ｃo m
Then my brother opened his eyes slowly.
“There's nothing wrong with that, is there? ”
It speaks as if it is not true.
“Nothing bad? ”
“Isn't that right? Come to think of it, you and I have somewhat of a place in the world. No, it's not. ”
“That's it. ”
“Of course, you can miss your family and friends. But you said that, right? Even though I was two years ahead of you, I didn't disappear on Earth. I guess you did, too, after all you've done. At least your parents don't know. ”
“Brother.”
“And speaking of which... Yeah, let's say things work out. Well, maybe you'll be in worse shape then? ”
“Too bad?”
“You know, there's another you on Earth, and here you're just disappearing. I know it's a little hard to say, but you're not a total stranger anymore. ”
Suddenly, I felt a sudden feeling. The boiling energy in my stomach seems to be caught on the spot. I want to say ”Moore,” but I can't shake my mouth.
“Status, property, honor, and fate…. I'll leave all this and go back to Earth... Can you handle it? ”
“ ……. ”
Tr a n sl a ted b y jpm t l .ｃom “This isn't the only one. Earth is a very peaceful world unlike here, and you've lived in the Hole Plain for over fourteen years. ”
“My brother.”
Eventually, I cut him off. I felt like my heart would burst if I listened to it anymore.
I took a big breath. My brother was staring at me with his left hand as if to say something.
“My brother…. Don't do this.”
After taking out the horse, the two eyes that were looking at me were tapered for a moment.
“You know that. ”
I barely spoke, but my voice trembles. No vision, no breath sounds, all the senses I perceived felt resonant. I feel like I tried to collect it, but it's getting worse and worse.
“Then you shouldn't, no, you shouldn't. You're not the only one who should be saying that. ”
It was then.
“What did I think, what did I feel...! ”
“Don't make excuses for me. ”
When I heard a voice that sounded strange,
“Did I ask you to save me, to do this? ”
I was completely speechless. I closed my eyes.
Tr a n s la ted by ｊp ｍt l .ｃ o m My brother...
‘If I die, don't bring me back to life. ’
‘Why? It's weird. You can bring her back to life if you die. I don't think my life is that cheap. ’
‘Soo-hyun... ’
‘Run away... I hope you survive... ’
... I didn't.
The moment I came to mind, I suddenly felt the strength draining from my whole body.
“And there seems to be a misunderstanding. ”
At the same time, my brother's words continued.
“Better to be sure. I don't want to live here. I don't want to convince you. ”
“Then…. ”
“Like I said, I want to know your true insides. Whether the idea has remained the same, or has changed at all. ”
“Why are you telling me...? ”
A lot of voices to listen to on your own.
“You're the one who gave it all back. ”
T ra n sla t ed b y jpmtl.ｃoｍ He said without changing his face, he kept his mouth shut. And holding still seems to be waiting for me to say something.
But I wasn't in the mood to say it. I was swallowed up by the sudden feeling of devastation and still couldn't break up. I just didn't know what to say. Because...
“... I'm sorry. ”
At that moment, I felt a provocation. When I woke up a little later, my brother was already on the couch and walking to the door. Then I barely woke up.
“Brother.”
“I have an official announcement tomorrow at noon. ”
I grabbed the doorknob and stopped.
“Presentation?”
“I've already got it straight. Central, North-East, South-East, and North-East cities... There's gonna be a lot of people there. Maybe.”
“I never heard of it. What are you up to? ”
“It's no big deal. And the plan doesn't really matter. ”
The brother who said that looked at me halfway around his face.
“It's you that matters. ”
“I...? ”
“I don't want to talk about it because it looks complicated. There are, of course, four seats in the official statue tomorrow. You're free to join us tomorrow or not. ”
“You don't have to go? ”
“When you come, we'll stick to the plan, or we'll just end with a simple announcement. So let's hear the answer today with or without tomorrow. You don't have to say it right now. ”
“Wait a minute.”
“And I'll say it here in advance. No matter what choice you make, I will respect and accept your decision.... This is serious. ”
“Brother!”
Suddenly, the door opens and closes. He hid himself like the wind.
“ ……. ”
I stared at my brother's seat for a while and slowly buried myself in the chair. I turned my head to the ceiling.
