Baek Ho-min meeting (3)
Ha Yeon-hwa frowned at Baek Ho-min’s murmur.
“Top? Top?” What do you mean? This is the top.”
“No, this is…”…”
Baek Ho-min closed his mouth while trying to explain. It was natural that Ha Yeon-hwa did not understand Baek Ho-min’s words.
This was because the shape of the painting painted by Ha Yeon-hwa was no other than a circuit engraved on the back of Baek Ho-min’s hand.
And the circuit was in the form of an early design created by Platinum Lord for issuing new currency.
Although more than half of the paintings were empty, it was not difficult to guess the overall silhouette.
Since the building is built after a tower-shaped circuit, it was natural that Hayeonhwa, who is not capable of reading the circuit, could not think of the tower in the shape of the building.
“……I think I saw it wrong.”
Baek Ho-min fumbled and passed it.
I don’t know what Platinum Lord was trying to make this with, but if what Baek Ho-min saw was accurate, this building was a kind of circuit.
A huge circuit that changes the city’s labor and resources because an individual cannot handle it.
It was clear that the enormous amount of correction made into it was intended to amplify the circuit’s ability.
Baek Ho-min intuitively felt that Platinum Lord was preparing something more than countercheon.
No, this was also done from the moment the adversity began, so it may be the same as the next step.
“I don’t know yet, so I have no choice but to keep watching.” Or I’ll just ask Platinum Lord openly.”
“I’ve learned too much, die.’
Isn’t that what you say?”
“I don’t think so anymore.””
Baek Ho-min said, recalling the appearance of Platinum Lord asking for a climb to the tower.
That means Platinum Lord recognizes Baek Ho-min as the subject of the tower climbing, and it was a promise of active sponsorship.
Of course, the basis of Platinum Lord’s strategy will not be twisted. She will do her best to use the knowledge and methods she knows.
On the other hand, Baek Ho-min’s knowledge is incomplete and all that can be used is the support of constellations.
Until now, Baek Ho-min has only been a useful resource level.
But there’s also a way to get better than that.’
Baek Ho-min decided to use constellations more actively.
How he had been contemplating using it since he noticed that he was returning after losing his memory.
It was the Baek Ho-min meeting.
Like this.
Baek Ho-min reminded me of the old days for the first time in a long time.
A huge room made of hard stone floors and a curtain that completely covers one wall. Inside, there was a mirror that filled the wall.
It was a mirror room, a fortress on the 10th floor.
Baek Ho-min entered the mirror after passing through the stone floor where he was beaten to death by a giant rock.
Different smell, different air.
A similar landscape unfolded, but a slightly different world appeared. However, because there was nothing he wanted, Baek Ho-min went over the mirror room again.
Several times like that, Baek Ho-min finally met the opponent he wanted.
“You…”
A man sitting in a room wearing a sword in a suit. He was named Baek Ho-min and Moomin in a parallel world.
[Constellation Martial King likes it]
Just in time, Martial King’s “Like” notification came. When he faced the existence of a parallel world while knowing the circumstances, Baek Ho-min felt complicated.
Of course, constellations are the beings of Baek Ho-min’s past, and Baek Ho-mins in a parallel world are beings that have nothing to do with his past.
However, at least there were enough similarities in the growth process.
‘For example, Moomin can think of it as similar to Martial King’s past.’
As soon as Moomin saw Baek Ho-min, he stared sharply as if he knew who he was.
Instead of rushing in, he stood up carefully and took a posture.
“That’s amazing.”
Before Baek Ho-min brought it up first, Moomin opened his mouth.
“What?”
“I really didn’t know I’d meet anyone. I wondered if I was being fooled because the head of the cemetery library even sent a messenger to wait in the mirror room. But how could it be you?”
“You told me to wait”?”
Baek Ho-min couldn’t help but be embarrassed by Moomin’s words.
While using the mirror room, I honestly thought that it was unlikely to meet someone from other worlds, Baek Ho-min.
Even when I first used it in the past, it was very rare to meet another Baek Ho-min.
“At this hour?”
“No, that’s not it. The mirror room moves according to the time when they first look at each other in the mirror. Maybe you and I don’t have the same time zone.”
Baek Ho-min looked up and down at Moomin. Looking at it now, he looked a little older than Baek Ho-min and his physique improved a lot.
At least two or three years older than Baek Ho-min.
“There was an empty mirror room, too.”
“That’s because there’s no such thing as ‘Baek Ho-min’ in the world.”
There was no need to ask why not. Of course I’m dead.
Even Baek Ho-min almost died so much, sponsored by constellations. There must have been Baek Ho-min, who died without even passing the moment he first received the circuit.
“Well, that’s fine. I’m glad you saved time to explain. Do you know why I’m here?”
“Is the tower blocked?””
Moomin seemed to have forgotten his old grudge. He was moving carefully, but he was not in an attitude of holding grudges.
“I’m now targeting the fourth floor. Constellation I’m stuck in the dark, but if you need help with the previous floor…….”
“Wait, the 40th floor?”
“Okay.”
“I’m now preparing to conquer the 50th floor and climb the 60th floor.”
Moomin was silent for a moment. It was clear that Baek Ho-min spent less time than that. After a while, he sighed and opened his mouth.
“I think I’m the one who needs advice. Okay. So what are we doing here?”
“No, we all have to ask for advice.”
Baek Ho-min smiled and gestured to Moomin.
“Follow me. I have a lot to say, but I’m too lazy to explain one by one, so I’ll gather and talk to you.””
Even if it is a mirror room that illuminates a parallel world, there is only one mirror room that can be implemented.
The beings of the parallel world cannot go out of the room made of these large rocks. But I could go around as much as I wanted in the room.
Baek Ho-min and Moomin met other Baek Ho-min as they went in and out of the room several times.
The time zones were all different, and each stood in front of the mirror for different reasons, but I was able to meet more Baek Ho-min than I thought.
“Baek Ho-min of the armed battle.”
Baek Ho-min of the pension workshop.
paladin단의 Baek Ho-min.
Baek Ho-min, who became the ruler of the alley.
Lastly, Baek Ho-min is the only one who doesn’t belong to anything.
I also met Baek Ho-min of the circuit workshop, but as soon as I encountered him, I was deported.
Unfortunately, I thought I should start talking now.
I saw Baek Ho-min of the paladin group for the first time, but he looked sociable.
“Good.”
Baek Ho-min opened his mouth, paying close attention to the awl that touched his neck.
“Let’s roughly decide on the name.” Baek Ho-min of the armed battle is Moomin, Baek Ho-min of the pension battle is weak, and Baek Ho-min of the paladin group is Seongmin. And…
“Call me a white spider.”
Baek Ho-min, a woman who seemed to have grown up in the alley, said in a snap.
The other Baek Ho-mins looked like they had a lot to say, but they were barely controlling themselves.
None of the people gathered here had a single constellation. Everyone has a tinnitus.
However, there was only one reason why each person did not talk about tinnitus.
This is because it was annoying to memorize many names at once. Rather, I liked a simple name that was easy to memorize.
The white spider continued, bringing the awl closer to Baek Ho-min’s chin.
“Wait, then you don’t belong to anything.” What should I call you?”
“There’s no one who’s going to be called Baek Ho-min anyway, but can’t I just be called Baek Ho-min?””
“Since you said you don’t belong to any company, let’s say you’re unemployed Baek Ho-min and Baek-”
“… That’s a little unfair.”
“Then what about Hogu Baek Ho-min and Ho-min?” Do you agree because it’s the same name as the original one?
Baek Ho-min said he would rather call him Baek-min, but he just decided to. The important thing is communication anyway.
Five people with the same name gathered in one place, so I had to listen to the name comfortably.
Baek Ho-min nodded.
“Then let’s take off the awl first and talk.”
“Oh, that’s right. My spirit has become sharp these days.”
The white spider removed the awl from its jaw.
I wondered how I could live without putting a blade on my opponent’s neck.
However, if you think about it, the white spider tried to kill Baek Ho-min from the moment it first met.
There was one more thing that bothered me.
“But…” Why are you wearing Platinum Lord’s raincoat?”
The white spider was wearing Platinum Lord’s white raincoat on its shoulders.
It was difficult to recognize immediately because it was covered with blood and dust and worn out to the point where it was worn out.
However, it was clear that it was a raincoat that Platinum Lord wore.
She smiled and tilted her head with a cool look.
“Homin. The reason why you gathered people while walking around the mirror room was to ask about such personal information?””
“……Yeah. It’s not important.”
It was hard to pass it casually, saying it was a matter of another world anyway, but there was a story that I couldn’t tell Baek Ho-min.
In addition, I didn’t want to break up the meeting from the start.
“You guys are standing in front of the mirror room because you have your own concerns.”
The Baek Ho-mins nodded.
The purpose of the mirror room is to meet the beings of other parallel worlds and find a solution.
Of course, most of them run into each other for similar reasons, so there is not much help, but at least you can think of a different path.
Baek Ho-min opened his mouth looking at themselves stretching in a rather extreme direction.
“I have something to say first, but we are returning.”
“Well, I don’t know if that’s the right way.”
Martial King moaned and muttered as he saw Baek Ho-min meet and talk to other Baek Ho-min in the mirror room.
Baek Ho-min talked about how he learned about the regression, the aftermath, and the constellations behind it.
Except for the fact that Platinum Lord was a returnee.
“That definitely didn’t happen in my life…”… I wonder how I would have been affected if I had known I was a returnee.”
“It’ll just be someone else’s business.””
Even if it is a regression, it is difficult to realize unless you can communicate with constellations like Baek Ho-min.
While Baek Ho-min himself was completely unaware, it could not be accepted if he suddenly identified himself as a returnee.
As expected, the reactions of Baek Ho-min were similarly lukewarm. But he showed curiosity about one fact.
[Past experiences become constellation and help you?]]
[Yes. From armed battlefields, pension battlefields, and circuit battlefields]]
Moomin and the white spider, who had already confronted Baek Ho-min, were convinced that it was only then. However, the weak and Seongmin seemed to be suspicious.
However, there was no particular way to prove the pension battle, and the same was true of the paladin group.
Still, Seongmin looked like he didn’t care much.
[That’s the end. Then I can become a constellation as well]]
[constellation] [The phoenix likes it]
At Seong-min’s words, the phoenix was eagerly saying “I like you.” Martial King glared sharply, but he didn’t even care about the phoenix.
Baek Ho-min smiled vaguely and nodded as if he was conscious of the Likes notification of the phoenix.
[I don’t think my personality is good, but yes]
“What’s wrong with my personality?” Isn’t my personality the best among constellations?”
The phoenix murmured as if it were absurd. While constellations ignored, Baek Ho-min continued to talk.
[Considering our actions and the existence of constellations, I think there is a certain path in our lives, and each of us follows it] But as you know, we don’t have any information about it]
The Baek Ho-mins nodded.
Even if you are a returnee, it is meaningless if you don’t have any memories.
Baek Ho-min was a collection of Baek Ho-mins from a parallel world in order to fill even a little bit of that flaw.
[We don’t have any information about the future]]
[I don’t care. I’m going to listen to your stories and build up my future by synthesizing my information based on them]]
[You punk! I thought you were a pushover but you were a seer?] Do you want me to change it to sensitive?]
[Let’s refrain from names that can be misunderstood]….]
Martial King glanced at the mystery while looking at the white spider who readily accepted the return.
Mystery didn’t seem to respond much, but she was clenching her teeth tightly.
What if she had known about regression from the beginning?
Were they hating the return as they are now or took it as calmly as a white spider?
Martial King was curious about that.
At that time, Seongmin raised his hand and said.
[Excuse me, I have a question]]
Baek Ho-min’s attention was focused.
[How did the red spider fall?]]
Martial King kicked the phoenix’s buttocks with a seizure.
