rotonto
“It’s Rotonto, isn’t it?”
Jaejoo Kim was really embarrassed.
Originally, the heroes of the 28th floor were invisible except for a set reaction like the NPCs in the game.
If you want peace, tell me a little story.
If you want a reward, you fight.
It was such a simple way.
“then?”
A small snake in Rotonto’s hand shook its head playfully.
The image of Kim Jae-joo looking at Kim Jae-joo with red eyes while flicking his tongue briefly.
‘It looks real.’
It seemed alive.
“I don’t really want anything… … .”
He said that he had no intention of fighting again, just in case.
“Don’t you feel like you’re wearing the wrong clothes?”
Rotonto smiled and stroked the snake, showing no sign of changing his attitude.
‘Strange.’
It feels different to be the manager’s handiwork.
There was nothing that evoked an instinctive disgust.
However, even considering the existing 28th floor, Rotonto’s reaction was suspicious.
‘Should I take out the Enian?’
Kim Jae-joo fiddled with the backpack strap in confusion.
The possibility that it was the manager’s craftsmanship was increasing, so I was thinking of taking out the Enian as soon as Rotonto showed a suspicious movement.
-The answer is you’re a child haha.
– not; Why is this uncle here?
“That’s right.”
“No way.”
“yes?”
“The clothes I made are the ones that give me a headache if they don’t fit.”
“… … It is not wrong.”
“haha! right?”
The grass up to the ankles was shaken by the strong wind.
“It’s been good since I was bored.”
Rotonto bent over and set the snake down.
easy profit.
The white snake glided into the grass and disappeared from view in an instant.
“ruler! Then play with me for a bit. I am a first-time traveler like you.”
“What… … .”
Shh!
Before Jaejoo Kim could finish speaking, a white snake jumped up from the grass and attacked Jaejoo Kim.
He turned his body at an angle to avoid the snake attacking him, and the white snake passed by Kim Jae-joo.
easy profit.
No, it was Kim Jae-joo’s mistake to say that he passed by.
The snake’s body stretched long, and in an instant, Kim Jae-joo’s left arm was wrapped around his tail.
‘Rainboots?’
The first thing that Jaejoo Kim thought of was boots.
Because it was a device with a zoom-in and zoom-out function.
The snake was wrapped around Kim Jae-joo’s arm and climbed up to his shoulder at high speed.
“It’s a joke… … .”
Jaejoo Kim grabbed the body of the snake with his right arm, but the snake casually stretched and turned toward Kim Jaejoo’s neck.
‘I can’t take it off.’
The judgment was swift.
After injecting magical power into his fist, he struck down the snake as it was.
I hoped the snake would fall off the shock.
thud.
It wasn’t the sound of flesh hitting a hard wall, but the sound of hitting a hard wall through his fists and resounding throughout his body.
The snake’s body suddenly hardened and turned into shackles that bound the movement of its arms.
“Snakes are funny animals.”
In the midst of the frenzy, a relaxed voice penetrated Kim Jae-joo’s ears.
I couldn’t afford to answer that.
easy profit.
Because the snake was sticking sharp teeth in Kim Jae-joo’s neck.
“You can move freely, isn’t it mysterious?”
The snake’s movement was just there.
With her teeth on her neck, she stopped without moving as if waiting for her master’s command.
“… … Are you going to kill me?”
Jaejoo Kim tried to be as calm as possible and looked at Rotonto.
‘What do you think?’
If he felt any real hostility, he had to kill him.
“No, even if not. Didn’t you tell me to play? killing you Did I look like such an idiot?”
Rotonto was still smiling.
As if all of this was a joke.
“Instead, if you don’t live up to my expectations, you might get a little sick.”
The snake removed its teeth and began to move, and Jaejoo Kim quickly realized what the intention was.
Because Ching Ching Gam was bending his arm in the opposite direction.
woo-woong.
Jaejoo Kim instilled magical power into his left arm and gave it strength.
Shh!
The snake raised his voice as if annoyed when Jaejoo Kim’s arm didn’t move as he intended.
How long did the tug of war last?
“stop.”
With just one word from Rotonto, the snake loosened its arms and returned to its owner.
“… … Whoa.”
Jaejoo Kim rubbed his stiff arms and wrinkled his forehead.
‘I don’t think he’s really trying to kill me.’
If the snake tried to pierce its own neck, it immediately tried to move the magic of the sun.
‘Let’s change our thinking.’
Jaejoo Kim clears his breath and throws away the idea that this is the existing 28th floor.
He thought that the Rotonto in front of him was a person, and looked at the Rotonto.
“Such. You still don’t believe me.”
“If it’s you, the first person you see is trying to break your arm by moving a snake to play, can you believe it?”
As Kim Jae-joo’s voice got higher, Rotonto digs his ears with his fingers and blows it out.
– That’s right.
– I can’t believe it even if it’s like me.
– Wow, Rotonto’s uncle looks good even after a long time.
-If I shaved all my beards, it would be a statue.
-Rotonto oppa, remember that time… … ? We were robbing the museum together, but my brother pretended to be a statue and only me was taken.
– Hey, madman?
“You are a cool young man.”
“The first time we saw each other, we laughed haha, then we played. Did you want this?”
Rotonto sighed at Kim Jae-joo’s blunt reaction.
“Then don’t do this. If you’re happy to play with me, I’ll teach you how to get rid of the headache.”
Jaejoo Kim was in trouble for a while and didn’t say anything, but then slowly opened his mouth.
“Are you so bored?”
At the slightly softened voice of Jaejoo Kim, the corners of Rotonto’s lips rose.
“It’s boring to be stuck here, forgetting the sense of time.”
That was strange.
“… … Are you bored?”
Because it sounded as if he knew that he was in charge of an axis of the tower.
“That’s right. Some guys don’t like Sumiha… … Oh, you don’t know about this. There are people who are like idiots, and there are people who break up after pretending to be good. It was only fun once or twice. I am tired now.”
Rotonto’s eyes were still.
So much so that I can’t figure it out.
“Since when did you feel that way?”
“Well… … It’s a feeling I’ve been feeling for a long time, but seeing you… … .”
Rotonto picked up two large leather pockets on his waist in both hands.
“Should I say that I realized something, or that it touched me… … . Anyway, I feel like I’m getting clearer.”
Rotonto grinned and unwrapped his leather pocket.
“ruler… … .”
Red and green snakes were released from the snakes and hid into the grass.
“Let me entertain you a little more.”
“Can’t you find it?”
Anda-hye trembled and looked around frantically.
Even though he was wearing a hood, his voice repeatedly raised and lowered as if he was anxious.
“It will be fine.”
“What the hell is that bastard?”
The two men following me pretended to be okay and raised their voices.
“Who is that man?”
“I don’t know. Whether you live or live, you would have figured it out.”
The hood covered in the wind was holding him tight, and his hands were trembling.
It was a suspicious behavior by anyone looking at it, and it was the same for the warriors of Tarha who were patrolling.
The two warriors stood up at the sight of them passing by.
“for a moment.”
As the warriors blocked the road by pulling axes from their waists, the three men and women raised their bowed heads.
“… … What’s going on?”
Da-hye Andh took a deep breath and refined her voice as much as possible.
“Are you travelers?”
“yes.”
“Passport.”
“Here you are.”
The warrior on the right continued to read the contents of the small permit given by Anda-hye.
“Put down the hood. I will make sure that the written content matches the face.”
“… … Wait.”
Dahye Andh hurriedly looked around and quickly lowered the hood.
“Hmm.”
The warrior’s expression hardened at the suspicious action, but there was no problem with the permit, so he let out a small sigh.
“Two behind you.”
The same procedure was done for the two men behind them.
“If you keep covering your face, this annoying thing will happen again.”
“Be careful with your actions.”
The inspection ended safely.
Dahye Andh clicked her tongue when she saw the two men hastily put on their hoodies.
“Aren’t you scared now?”
“Wow, what are you talking about? haha. Just being careful.”
“It’s the third checkpoint now, can’t you stop shaking your hands?”
“It’s cold, yes. It’s cold.”
“… … it’s ok Let’s quickly find someone to go to the 30th floor and leave. I can’t sleep because I’m so anxious.”
“okay. Because I posted it on the bulletin board. You will be saved soon.”
Da-hye Andh quickly turned her head, and the two men followed her, holding back their insults inside.
“Isn’t it better to stay in the user’s dormitory until they are rescued?”
The man pretended to be cold, stroking his arm and shivering softly.
“… … okay.”
With Anda-hye’s consent, the two men exhaled a breath of relief and quickly followed their steps.
“After all, we’re all kind!”
“huh. Don’t say nonsense and get a room first.”
“okay. let’s go!”
Thinking that they could finally shake off this anxiety, the two men turned and entered a narrow alley.
‘I believe in these guys… … .’
Da-hye Andh let out a deep sigh as she looked pathetic even when she looked cute in the past.
‘Did I say Kim Jaejoo?’
The moment he entered the alley following the two men, saying that it might be because of his contrasting appearance with anyone he saw for the first time.
“hi?”
An unfamiliar voice greeted Anda-hye.
“Who are you?”
Anda-hye’s pupils trembled wildly.
The two men, who were running excitedly, were lying on the floor, and on the dark road where even the sunlight did not shine, only one person was standing.
“me? He was a passer-by.”
“Well, but why… … .”
“no. As he passed by, he slapped me on the shoulder. He didn’t even apologize, so I got annoyed and beat him up a bit.”
“Yes Yes?”
Anda-hye’s voice trembled anxiously.
‘Nonsense.’
Beating people for simply feeling bad in the same tarja now.
Anda-hye’s head was taut.
“… … Maybe Kim Jae-”
“Shh.”
It was a relaxed and playful voice.
Through the dark boundary, the man slowly walked out.
Da-hye Andh tried to step back, but she couldn’t move.
At first I thought it was because I was afraid, but it wasn’t.
‘horsepower.’
It was because the power that tightly bound her body was a familiar energy.
“Shall we start by cutting off one arm or one leg?”
The man’s identity was white.
“Huh… … Heh.”
Since Jaejoo Kim started to treat magical power like an Auror, it was hard to come to his senses with the shortness of breath he had felt in a long time.
I lay flat on the grass and stared blankly at the clear sky without a single cloud.
‘Is this playing?’
While swallowing annoyance inside.
‘It far exceeded the level I saw in the video.’
Jaejoo Kim got up again as his breathing calmed down.
Originally, the Rotonto was at the level of making fun of its users by using only seven snakes.
“Uh-huh. I’m so tired. Young people these days don’t have the guts.”
But right now, the rotonto is arguing.
“You’re fighting directly while beating a snake. Isn’t that a foul?”
A single piece of clothing was flapping or wriggling as if alive.
There was a face that didn’t shed a single sweat, and it looked disgusting.
“I think you are the one making the foul. I have never seen a traveler get used to it so quickly.”
Rotonto looked at Jaejoo Kim, what are you talking about?
It must be so, because Jaejoo Kim was not very different from Rotonto’s appearance.
All clothes, including the coat, were moving as if alive, ready to strike at any time the lurking snakes and the attacking Rotonto.
“Continue.”
Jaejoo Kim smiled and wiggled his index finger as if provocatively.
