Chapter 200 - Tutorial 61st floor (3) (part 1)
By JiuJiuBa inThe Tutorial Is Too Hard 1
Translator: JiuJiuBa
Proofreader: Godlycash
I looked at Ho-chi stealthy who was reading a novel while walking.
Even if Ho-chi take out the book as a sign of dissatisfaction because of my criticism, he usually read it with enthusiasm.
Ho-chi likes novels so much that he wants to read novels at every possible moment.
However, he was not reading. He was just holding the book in his hand.
His gaze was on the book, but they were gazing into the void.
In my opinion, he was so distracted that he couldn't even focus on the novel.
This was surprising.
There were not many things that could distract him from reading.
Different from me, unless something had a direct influence on Ho-chi, he usually ignores it and let it go.
He didn't care about the stages of the tutorial or the Gods.
He thought these were not related to him.
So he could crazy things like stealing powers from the Gods with no hesitation.
For him, all of these were outside of his world.
So I was surprised that he was disturbed like this.
"Well, what happened to the Barrier?"
Ho-chi ignored my words silently.
I waited for a little while, but he still didn't answer me.
He was just walking forward and pretending to read the book like before I questioned him.
Perhaps he used his focused on the book as an excuse to ignore me.
I gave up because it was too difficult to get his answer.
What disturbed Ho-chi must be related to the Barrier.
I would know what happened when we arrived at the Barrier.
Even if he was disturbed by something else, when I alone look around the Barrier, I will find the cause of the problem immediately.
Ho-chi opened his mouth when we were near the Barrier.
He spoke nonchalantly as if nothing happened.
"Ms. Seregia appeared."
After this sentence, he shut his mouth again.
I couldn't answer him immediately.
All I could do was walk in silence like him.
I forced my footsteps to move, which almost stopped unconsciously.
I tried to pretend to be calm, but I couldn't hide my agitation in front of Ho-chi.
Both of us were silent.
"Don't worry."
Said Ho-chi, in front of the Barrier's entrance.
When I saw Ho-chi talking as if it wasn't a big deal, I had mixed feelings.
Along with the relief, I felt apologetic and guilty for the past mistakes.
"Hey, Ho-chi."
"Yeah, what?"
"You can leave here first if you feel uncomfortable. I'll handle this."
Hearing my words, Ho-chi considered for a while. Then he said Okay and returned to the residential area.
I should have calmed myself down while looking at his back.
The period when I would get discouraged due to agitation had passed.
However, there is a high risk of not being able to control my emotions when it is necessary to repair the Barrier.
The number of things I feel guilty about today is high.
I felt so guilty that my stomach stung.
When I was trapped in the 60th floor, I was maddened.
This was not an excuse, this was the reality.
I was so desperate to break through, but I failed no matter how hard I struggled.
After all my attempts failed, the earnest feeling and sincerity I poured in became hatred and madness.
Even so, I didn't give up while I was going crazy.
In order to find a new method, I continued to experiment.
The concept I had before was completely changed.
Now, when thinking about these efficiency and results oriented experiments I did, I would get in a bad mood.
Most objects of experiments were my body and spirit and as the experiments continued, I was only further exhausted.
I tried countless times and was so tired that I gave up everything and returned to the starting point again and again. I repeated this many times, so I died and reborn many times.
5 years.
It is the time it took for Lee YeonHee to arrive on the first floor after I was trapped in the 60th floor.
And during those five years of time, every moment of my life was accelerated.
At least hundreds of years.
I wasn't sure when the acceleration stopped, but it was quite possible to be hundreds of years considering the performance of improved time acceleration.
I didn't only do experiments on myself during that insane period.
I tried to do experiments on everything I saw around me.
I had buried many things that were unsuccessful and there were also many things that vanished completely.
There were also some things that were belatedly solved.
However, it wasn't that something you couldn't see didn't exist.
The residential area that collapsed and rebuilt for dozens of times, the necklace I gave Lee YeonHee as gift and Ho-chi, all of this proved that.
I knew I was unable to go back to the past.
And the memory of the past wouldn't affect my future.
Except, my remorse about my past remained.
* * *
There was a woman's face in the center of the Barrier, instead of a huge sword.
It was quite strange to that a face hanging in the center of Barrier.
Even if it was an acquaintance's face.
"Seregia."
"Yes, Warrior."
The calm voice was the same.
"Long time no see."
"Quite a long time."
It seemed she was the real Seregia.
The only power I could perceive was time reversal.
In other words, Seregia, who became the core axis of the Barrier, returned to her previous state.
"You look very good. Did you find a method?"
Through her words, I knew there was no problem of her memory.
Now my stomach was not stung slightly, but squeezed hard.
"I have."
"Thank Goodness. So why did you return me to my previous state?"
I answered bitterly.
"In fact, it wasn't me that woke you up."
I explained the power of God that the Barrier was bearing and she understood the situation.
Seregia heard my words and smiled like this was a great fortune.
"So there was no problem with Barrier."
"Yes. it's only time is going back and I'll return your state to the normal. It's difficult to destroy their power, but not impossible."
"I see. Please restore the Barrier now. I'm in a bad mood due to my incomplete state."
I said Okay and started to destroy the power.
Seregia's face just looking at me quietly.
Before the Barrier was restored completely, Seregia said.
"How encouraging. You look very good. Just like before."
"Fortunately I do. Thanks."
The past that Seregia spoke about was probably when I hung her on my waist.... . No, it's quite weird to say she hung on my waist.
Either way, I was talking about the stage when she and I fought together.
