My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant

Destroyed World (3)

An ominous gray sky full of cracks and cracks.

That was the only ‘sky’ that Ramyu had seen ever since he was born.

It was natural, since it was that kind of world to begin with.

And it wasn’t just limited to her.

A considerable amount of time has passed since the world collapsed, and only older adults are the ones left who remember the original clear blue sky.

But even though it was such a poor sight… Ramyu liked looking at the sky.

Compared to herself, who only holds on to the ankles of her brother, her only family, doesn’t that high sky seem infinitely wider, more expansive, and even freer?

‘I couldn’t even look at the sky like that. I got scolded by my brother a lot because of that.’

It was natural, because if I looked at the pitch-black darkness that shimmered beyond the broken defect for too long, I could have been possessed by the abyss and become a madman.

She obeyed him and stopped looking at the sky.

Unlike others, she instinctively felt that the abyss could not have any effect on her, but she did not want to worry her brother any more.

‘If it weren’t for me, my brother could have lived anywhere and been treated well.’

Her older brother Liang was a great person.

Unlike her sickly self, she had excellent innate physical ability, and her instantaneous judgment of situations and wit were such that no one could match her.

The proof was herself.

In a harsh world where no one can depend on after the death of both parents.

It was definitely not easy to survive for more than ten years while protecting a newborn baby in a situation where it was difficult to maintain one’s own health.

He was not just a brother to Ramyu, as he persevered through that difficult task.

To her, who has never seen her parents’ faces, they are something more than her parents.

That was Liang, her only blood relative.

so.

Because that’s what it was.

She couldn’t accept the fact that she was still alive and looking at the blue sky.

-“Ramu—!!”

Memories of her final moments flashed through her mind.

The sky collapsing with an ominous sound.

Her brother, who was shocked and dazed by the terrible sight, ran to her with all his might and hugged her tightly.

-“Ramu, remember this one thing.”

She just listened to him quietly, held in his warm embrace.

Because I didn’t even have the strength left to open my mouth due to the unknown feeling of loss.

-“You are my younger brother no matter what anyone says.”

That’s why I couldn’t ask.

What did that mean?

Immediately after that, Liang took off the necklace that was hanging around his neck and put it on Ramyu.

One of my parents’ keepsakes that the two of them shared.

The other half of a heart-shaped ornament divided into two.

-“I love you, my little brother.”

In that strong embrace.

In the end, the sky she loved collapsed—.

Growling—

A loud sound echoed throughout the room.

“ah.”

Ramyu, who had been looking up blankly at the blue sky beyond the window, finally came to his senses and rubbed his eyes with his sleeve.

Then, he held his stomach and let out a small sigh.

Even though it had only been a few hours since I ate, I started feeling extremely hungry again.

‘It wasn’t like this originally.’

It was all because the food in this world was so delicious.

In the meantime, I had been relying on things like rough grass roots and tree bark as my staple food, but now that I was entering soft, nutritious foods, my whole body was now desperately craving new nutrients whenever I had the chance.

‘It was my first time experiencing such a sumptuous feast. Rat meat eaten only on special days is incomparable…’

She swallowed the saliva that was dripping from the corner of her mouth and shook her head.

No matter how delicious the food was, I couldn’t trust people carelessly.

That was the first iron rule for survival.

‘He doesn’t seem like a bad person, but…’

I knew that I was in trouble after all I had gained, but I couldn’t help the values I had lived with my whole life.

Because of that, she was always eating secretly and locking herself in her room like a stray cat.

Even now, a few days after I came here.

click-

Ramyu gently opened the door and stuck his head out.

Then, after looking around, he quietly made no sound and went down to the kitchen on the first floor.

‘Delicious smell.’

The man, who introduced himself as Hoon, always prepared meals for her and deliberately made room for her, as if he was considerate of her.

As if to tell you to eat comfortably without worrying about what others think.

Even though she felt grateful and sorry for him, she was unable to muster up the courage to approach him.

In a way, it was natural.

Although she didn’t show it as best as she could, she had just lost her brother, her only family.

Whether it was because of the environment I grew up in or whether it was my natural tendency, the sadness wasn’t to the point where I couldn’t go about my daily life, but I couldn’t help but feel an empty feeling in my heart.

‘···Phew, but it can’t continue like this. ‘Let’s talk properly today.’

In order to move forward, I had to somehow take a step forward.

Her brother, who worried about her until the last moment, would also like it more.

She cautiously entered the kitchen with strong determination.

“Eh?”

And there.

I made eye contact with a being I had never even imagined.

[Kyu?]

On the table covered with various foods.

An unknown creature with its shiny, shiny body wrapped in a coil and its small head tilted.

Ramyu’s round eyes and the bright eyes of the ghost collided in the air.

***

Hoon also served as external auditor for affiliates including Howard Industries and Lunatic Entertainment.

‘It’s a success.’

He left the room for a moment to do some work, opened the front door, entered the safe house, and nodded in satisfaction.

“warm···. “It’s smooth…”

[Kyurrr—!]

“hehehe, it tickles!”

The bright laughter of a child was coming from inside the house.

Just in case, I called Hwiryeong and asked him to do it separately, and it seemed like things worked out as expected.

‘As expected, Hwiryeong’s cuteness is the best in the world. ‘You can even capture a child like that wary cat with just one hit.’

Several days had passed since he was brought from the Cosiyas dimension, but it was not easy to relax Lamyu’s vigilance, perhaps because he lived in such a harsh environment.

Somehow I was able to make a clear statement, but that was all I achieved.

For those on the side who wanted closer dialogue and cooperation, it was extremely frustrating.

‘I can completely understand that feeling, though.’

From the other party’s point of view, it was rather strange that they were not alert, as the world they had lived in had suddenly turned upside down.

But even if you understand that, you can’t just waste time like this.

So, in order to somehow become closer to my child, I tried referring to parenting communities and video sites, but those didn’t seem to be of much help.

‘Because Ramyu’s situation is different from ordinary children.’

The only survivor from a destroyed dimension.

It was a variable that could be seen as not just special but unique.

It would be natural for a solution that assumes a normal child to not work for such a child.

What came to mind at that time was the yellow dragon, the spirit.

The correlation between the emotions of animals and children is already a well-known fact.

It was an ambiguous question whether the yellow dragon should be considered an animal, but that was not the important thing right now.

Having already experienced Hwiryeong’s loveliness first-hand, he started planning right away without hesitation…

“pretty···. oh! “Where are you going?”

[Kyaan!]

I was now experiencing results that exceeded my expectations.

The spirit flew across the living room, wrapped around Hoon’s neck as he was just entering the room, and poked his head towards his shoulder.

Ramu, who ran after him and belatedly discovered that he had returned home, hesitated and looked at him.

‘If it had been before, I would have run away right away. The effect is certain.’

He smiled while stroking his head, which had blunt horns like bumps, with one hand.

[Kyaaa!]

A small body that keeps moving up and down as if it knows that it is being praised.

And it didn’t take long for the spirit’s help to bear fruit.

***

Hun’s skill, “Mental Sensitivity,” was a very useful ability.

It started with the so-called telepathy of transmitting thoughts to others, and even had the expandability to include psychometry, mind reading, and brainwashing, which read thoughts left behind in objects.

It could also be used to instill common sense into those who have no knowledge of this world.

‘The amount of information that can be conveyed without side effects is not that much because the proficiency is still insufficient… Still, where is this?’

It was also my job to teach them how to use the shower, shampoo, etc.

Until now, I had maintained cleanliness using magic tools with cleaning abilities, but I couldn’t rely on that forever.

‘For languages with a lot of information, you can use the interpreter magic tool I also gave to Andrew.’

And one more thing.

Another big advantage of using “Mental Sensitivity” was that you could share the scene the other person was thinking of in real time.

By nature, information was bound to be distorted in the process of being passed on to others.

Hans’ black magic, which has severe side effects due to forced brain reading, can’t be used anywhere.

Beep beep— beep—

“It’s 257,000 won.”

“Here it is.”

After finishing shopping at a large supermarket near the safe house, Hoon came out into the street and bent his neck here and there.

I had prepared various things in advance before moving in, but when I started living with my child, there were more than one or two things I needed.

‘It might be okay right now, but… It might be difficult to continue taking care of it on my own in the future.’

Moreover, because she is a girl, there will be some things she needs to pay special attention to.

But there is no way that she, who has never had a proper relationship, let alone raised a child, can take care of such matters delicately.

‘Well, I’ll think about it later.’

Hoon was lost in thought, recalling the story he heard from Ramu before going shopping.

The reason he went out shopping now was to give her, who had become depressed while thinking about her past, time to gather herself together with Hwiryeong, the person in charge of mental care.

‘The last moment of the Cosiyas dimension.’

Thanks to the use of “Mental Sensation” with the consent of the other person, I was able to obtain more vivid information.

What kind of environment she has lived in, what events have occurred in the past, and in what form the end of the world came.

And among them, there was one topic that particularly caught his interest…

‘It’s a keepsake from my parents.’

It was about her parents’ mementos that she kept until the end and was given to her by her brother.

A pretty necklace that is divided into two parts starting from the middle and forms a perfect heart shape when combined.

A single phrase was engraved on the combined back.

It is said that Ramyu and Liang could not read.

“They say it’s the language they used in their hometown, but it’s completely different from what I learned from my brother… “It’s clear that it’s a foreign language, but I’m not sure exactly what country it’s from.”

Surprisingly, Ramyu was an intellectual who learned letters even in that hell.

Although it was because his body was so weak that there was nothing he could do, it was a great thing in a world heading towards destruction.

Hoon received her permission and personally checked the text on the keepsake.

For the person who possessed “Xenoglossy,” there was no language he couldn’t read.

And he was able to read the sentence engraved on the necklace as expected.

‘The only problem is…’

It was a character he already knew that could be read without “Xenoglossy.”

-May our love last forever

‘english.’

The meaning is ‘May our love last forever’.

It was a phrase that went perfectly with a heart-shaped necklace.

‘You were from Earth, right?’

After listening to the story, it seemed like they were both awakened people from Earth who had completely settled down in this world.

Is this really just a coincidence?

‘···I’ll have to hear more details when I get back.’

The moment I continued to think and move forward.

A small commotion was felt in his senses, which were far beyond those of ordinary people.

s*xual crimes against women were taking place in a deserted alleyway a little away from the street where he was now.

‘You’re not afraid. How dare you do something like that in Seoul.’

Hoon, frowning slightly, glanced at him.

It didn’t end simply because he wasn’t caught red-handed.

The vigilante group that protects Korea’s darkness will not miss even the slightest clue and will track you down to the end and punish you.

‘Is it extreme level? From the looks of it, I haven’t been able to properly understand the situation since I just returned…’

But the power he possessed could never be ignored.

As he played in the big water, his eyesight grew infinitely higher, and he was also in a position where he could proudly spread his shoulders no matter where he went.

It was a state where the name and color could be replaced by a sword master, an archmage, a fireworks master, etc.

‘I just happened to want to test something, and it worked out well.’

Of course, strength has always been relative.

Hoon’s eyes lit up and he extended his “Mental Sensitivity” towards him.

Because the opponent’s level was also at a high level, a strong mental barrier blocked his path, but thanks to the help of mental skills such as “Great Mind”, he was able to somehow contact the opponent’s thoughts.

[“Who dares!”]

Through that connection, the other person’s thoughts were transmitted.

As if he had sensed that someone was trying to infiltrate his mind, emotions filled with unpleasantness and murder arose.

Although it was possible to contact the other person’s mind, there wasn’t much that could be done at such a shallow depth.

At best, is all we can do is read a very small part of the surface consciousness that is temporarily passing by?

As the other person, who was still wary, began to raise his energy, the connection gradually began to fade.

If we continue like this, the connection will be completely lost, or the villain who traced our location back will attack us in an instant.

‘That amount of time is enough.’

But Hoon only chuckled.

Once contact was made, it was over.

He immediately opened his mind wide and regurgitated what was inside.

[“Ouch! What is this…?!”]

As long as the accident was connected to him, the level of mental barriers had no meaning.

As if a huge road roller had trampled over a toy castle, the opponent’s mental world was instantly devastated.

“···Is this okay?”

Hoon let out a small whistle and his eyes sparkled.

He figured out their location and saw that the person he was furiously attacking had collapsed and was drooling with his eyes wide open, so he cut off the connection.

‘Well, I didn’t expect much in terms of combat power from this avatar.’

It hasn’t been long since it was created, but it is already capable of neutralizing extreme opponents.

In addition, unlike other avatars whose maintenance burden increases as their level increases, Hoon was able to use his enormous subordinates as weapons.

Like pouring the entire nuclear waste from the nuclear power generation process into enemy territory.

‘It will become a stronger weapon than you think. Here, if I further develop my “mental perception” ability and be able to stably connect even to much stronger opponents…’

Hoon nodded with a meaningful smile and walked slowly.

Since ancient times, the best way to develop an ability is to use it a lot.

It was the moment when an unknown nightmare called ‘Mind Breaker’ was born in Seoul, where it is difficult for villains to operate.
