I Became a Fortune Teller in a Game My Sister Made

227 – 45. Pseudo

“So, where are you going now?”

“I have to go to meet that baby.

Namgoong Min and Namgoong Min are strange companions.

It is not a combination that will last long. In the end, another Namgoong Min stood up on his own without holding my hand.

‘If it takes a long time, I’ll probably try to get to the former god by myself.’

In that respect, I was fortunate to have the key.

Because we were able to leave right away without any delay.

“Are you hurt?”

“…Tsk, it’s okay. It’s no big deal.”

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

“……I can walk, and the bleeding has stopped a long time ago. You’re not trying to say that I should recover and then leave, are you?”

“Actually, I definitely have to do that, but I think they noticed it too.”

“What?”

＜’Developer’s Room Key’

You have decided to use the key.

Available within the next 12 minutes.

*Caution: When the time limit expires, the key disappears! There are no other keys!＞

The time limit that arose from the first time we said goodbye.

It was originally supposed to be 30 minutes, but the time had been cut by less than half due to the back and forth with Namgoong Min when saying goodbye.

‘Honestly, I want to go in in the best possible condition.’

The strength that Lucas and Lane gave me has decreased considerably as they fight with the other me, and the other me is having a hard time even walking, let alone fighting.

It would be better to get in quickly than to delay for no reason.

There may be former gods in it.

‘…… ‘Jisoo.’

Because there will also be an index.

Leaving the outskirts of the mountain where we had been fighting, we entered between the buildings in the darkness.

Choose the building closest to you and place the key to the back door in the alley.

Then.

Clap!

The door handle changes.

As soon as the key touched the ordinary metal handle, the shape of the handle changed and soon took on the form of an elaborate statue.

‘This is why I couldn’t find it.’

When I first created a fortune telling store and sold the locations of artifacts hidden throughout the academy as fortune telling.

I started looking for the developer’s room from then on, but I never found any clues, let alone its appearance.

So, I was actually giving up halfway.

‘You could only go there if you had a key.’

The developer’s room was not a room that existed in a specific location.

A completely remote space that can be accessed only with the help of this key.

Moreover, it didn’t matter which door it was.

“…What? What are you thinking like that?”

“It’s just buying me some time. Have you recovered in the meantime?”

“That’s terrible….”

While the other me sighs, saying I get angry every time I hear that bastard’s mouth, I insert the key and turn it.

Crash.

“Are you ready? ‘Nam’?”

“……What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about?”

“You won’t accept it?”

“Of course! It makes me cringe just hearing it, so what can I do!?”

“‘Nam’.”

“This crazy bastard?”

“‘Nam’.”

“……………….”

“‘Nam’.”

“……’Palace’.”

“What are you talking about? Let’s go in quickly.”

“You bastard!!”

“How are you feeling? You’re a little more relaxed now, right? I can see it in the way your eyes are rigid while you’re pretending like nothing’s wrong.”

“……………….”

“Don’t be too nervous.”

“…f*ck, how can you not be nervous? They say there’s a former god inside me, the bastard who made me like that.”

“If you think about it that way, I have a younger sister inside?”

“………Okay, let’s go.”

“…Okay.”

Even with nonsense like this.

I needed to relax between you and me.

The past year of living in this world. The experiences and days I have accumulated.

All of that will end there.

…… In any form.

*

The inside was cleaner than I thought.

To be exact, there was nothing.

“……………….”

“……………….”

The door we just opened and passed closes automatically and disappears into pure white.

A pure white space that paralyzes your sense of direction, like the inside of a dream.

Where am I stepping, where am I looking, and where am I heading?

In an unknown space, another me took out a card.

“Do you know where to go?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

“Damn. Then first, be cautious of your surroundings──”

“What is this…?”

“…Jisoo?”

“Jisoo? Then this is your sister’s…?”

“Uninvited guest? I’m an uninvited guest?”

Sparkling.

Far away.

I know it’s contradictory, but a white light sparkled in a pure white space.

Although it is clear that it is difficult to notice because it is originally the same color.

Neither I nor I could take our eyes off the big light.

“Jisoo.”

Right after that.

Whiteness is disappearing.

“………!!”

To the point where I was wondering why I hadn’t noticed it until now, the surroundings were not pure white but had clear shapes.

The asphalt road I always saw, the complex tangle of electric poles and wires, and the familiar smell of exhaust fumes.

And.

The entrance to the semi-basement where Jisoo lived.

“This is…….”

Temple? This semi-basement?

The whole scene was so vivid that if it weren’t for the other person glaring at me with an incomprehensible expression, I would have thought everything up until now had been a dream.

Going down towards the semi-basement. The dust and flowers accumulating on the stairs come into view.

I didn’t know what to expect, but when I lifted one of the plants slightly, there was a key underneath it.

I pick up the house key, which was always hidden there, and insert it into the semi-basement door.

…… Because Jisoo’s voice was heard inside.

Dalkak.

The door opened so easily. The coolness and musty smell felt inside.

It may be unpleasant to some, but to Jisoo and me, it was a familiar and friendly home.

And in the semi-basement living room.

“……Jisoo, hey.”

I had a younger sister.

However.

“What is that appearance…?”

＜…………….＞

It is translucent.

I met Jisoo several times. Both at his mansion in Rio during his summer vacation and in the United States where he went on a two-day, one-night trip.

Jisoo was fine at that time. Even though she was a warrior and became a god, she still looked like the bratty little sister I knew.

But what is this?

“What happened to you?”

＜……… Oppa.＞

“There’s no need for those vague eyes. Just shut up and talk.”

＜…… Sorry.＞

“Hey b*tch.”

Feeling like something was boiling over me, I approached Jisoo and tried to grab her shoulder.

Huung.

“………!!”

Pass. It seemed like there was no one there.

Jisoo is clearly in front of you.

“You, you?”

＜…………….＞

“…Explain it properly. Right away.”

[That is natural.]

Kwasik!!

A ‘voice’ that I am not familiar with every time I hear it, but that I have heard countless times.

As soon as I heard him, I moved as if to cover Jisoo, and the other me immediately swung the card toward the direction from which the voice came from with bloodshot eyes.

Thanks to that, the door to the semi-basement was cut in half, but the voice was calm.

Just like I did, his body made of cracks passed the card.

[No matter how much of a usurper it is, it is still a human body. It’s obvious that I can’t last long in the first place.]

“You bastard!!!!”

[A failure, I never thought it would come this far…… This is unexpected.]

“Die!!!!”

Boom! Quad Deuk!! Kwazijic!!!

The guy was made of cracks, but his smile was clearly visible.

I swung my card and flailed my body, which was already close to its limit, but the former god just laughed at me as if it was funny.

My other attack only passed through the crack and randomly destroyed the surrounding area.

[Amazing. Maybe this is the first time you’ve surprised me. It’s a pretty special failure.]

“You bastard…!!!”

[But the anger is directed at me. Why? Even when I last whispered, that anger and hatred must have been directed at the fortune teller……… Oh my.]

Snow.

There is no way it would be visible to a guy made of cracks.

The cracks on the head gathered and moved to form an eye-like shape.

[My inner self has changed. Is it because of the fortune teller?]

“…Am I still a failure?”

[Of course. Surely you didn’t accept that change as growth? That’s just a small error. I can only assume it is a failure anyway.]

“……………….”

Clud.

Former God’s words did not break my will again.

On the contrary, with burning eyes, he was pouring out emotions beyond the hatred and murder that he had sent towards me.

While the two were confronting each other, I looked at Jisoo, who I had wrapped.

“…Is that really true?”

＜…………….＞

“Jisoo.”

＜…… I guess I used a little too much force. They say I could have stayed in this place for a thousand or ten thousand years if I had just stood by, but it would be meaningless without my brother anyway.＞

“……………….”

Intervention.

Intervention.

“At first, you wanted me to be in this world at all.”

＜……….＞

“During summer vacation, we met at Rio’s mansion…”

Actually, I am.

“Jisoo?”

“……Several times?”

＜’Romance Academy’, oppa worked really hard? I was happy. Honestly, it was a boring game for me to play…… It was all for my brother.＞

…… When I think about it now, it is clearly contradictory.

If Jisoo created this world and made a game based on it, it would be understandable, but the creator of this world is different.

Jisoo also became a god later.

Still, if only it were possible to create a female-oriented game that contains the future.

“……………….”

“…Why am I worried about that?”

What’s the problem with that?

It is my natural right and duty as an older brother to go and check on the bastard who kissed my younger sister.

It’s just that in the process, you may get a little upset.

“………Is that so?”

So.

Namgoong Jisoo used all his strength to intervene.

“……….”

Only then did I understand what Jisoo meant.

Meeting Jisoo like this in itself is a departure from the scenario she had planned.

‘A lot has changed since the middle.’

It was only until the first survival test that the knowledge of the game was passed on.

After that, things slowly started to change, and the days passed by using what little gaming knowledge I had and my abilities.

In the meantime, there might have been a turning point where I died or gave up completely.

Jisoo tried to control it all.

“……Jisoo.”

“Who told you to do such a cheeky thing?”

＜…… Huh?＞

With all that effort and thought.

I am quite…… You seem angry.

So, I was a little angry.

“After my parents passed away, what did we say to each other? We said we’d talk to each other if something important happened, right?”

＜…… Yes.＞

“I talked to you about everything, including the qualification exam, a new part-time job, manual labor, and college entrance exams. I told you all about it and consulted with you, right? But you just shut your mouth and take it on your own?”

“But there’s nothing to it, you b*tch. Whether you’re a former warrior or a god, in the end you’re just my damn little sister, and to you I’m just a handsome, cool, great, great older brother.”

＜……….＞

“Huh? Don’t you have anything to say?”

I thought of course there would be criticism for self-praise.

Jisoo looked into my eyes for a moment.

＜…… That’s right.＞

“Huh?”

“……………….”

“What?”

Wow.

When Jisoo gestured, a small screen appeared on her hand.

The content on the screen was simple and direct.

…… So much so that I can’t react at all.

Because, that is.

“……What is this?”

Me and I were walking down the street, dozing off in drowsiness.

A car left its lane and rushed towards me.

It was a photo right before the two collided.

＜…… Because I wanted to make you run away from death.＞
