– Han Ga-in
Early in the morning, as soon as I woke up, I went outside room 105 and remembered the events of last night.
If the being summoned by the maze through the clock dies, we also die. Last night, another me found out this information and passed it on to me.
I understand up to this point.
Next comes the weird part. The guy who was talking normally suddenly said, “Keep in mind. “You can’t meet with me,” he said and stopped talking to me!
What on earth is going on? Why did you make people curious and not tell them the reason? We never met in the first place, right?
Several possibilities came to mind.
Is it possible that Miro can detect the conversation between the summoned body and the main body? Does the watch have that function? When I thought that the maze had already hidden one function, doubt continued to bite me.
Or will they die the moment they meet? There are also urban legends about doppelgängers. But if it was this dangerous, why didn’t you tell me?
Just as I was starting to feel like my head was hurting, people gathered around, had a quick breakfast, and the meeting began.
“Tomorrow morning, if Miro doesn’t tell you this, be on your guard against her.”
I looked at Miro closely because of this phrase I saw yesterday, but fortunately, Miro raised his hand and informed everyone as soon as the meeting started.
“So everyone be careful! “It would be difficult to suddenly charge at the enemy just because I summoned it.”
Jincheol’s eyes widened in surprise.
“That’s an amazing story, isn’t it? “Didn’t you know this information yesterday?”
“huh… . I didn’t know what to expect after getting the watch and receiving so many complicated explanations. “I realized it while I was alone in my room.”
“Well, the timeline is a very complicated legacy.”
That seems like a lie, but other people didn’t seem that suspicious.
In any case, you are making it known, and the time zone is actually a very complex legacy, so the user may not have understood it right away.
Another reason may be that Miro’s behavior is sometimes more like that of an elementary school student rather than a middle school student.
My sister naturally changed the topic of the meeting.
“good! You are familiar with the characteristics of time zones, right? Now let’s talk about the next room. “The reason we gathered so early in the morning is because we have to go to the cursed room later.”
“Which room would you like?”
In response to the doctor’s question, my older sister turned to everyone and said,
“Isn’t it room 203 now? In the past, I passed because it was too hard and difficult… .”
We are quite different between then and now. Although it is only a week in terms of days, a week in a hotel is the time when the creation of heaven and earth takes place seven times.
If you look at it seriously, the big point is that the blessing has been restored. I knew roughly what kind of abilities Seungyeop, who had suffered the most at the time, was a human from the beginning. My understanding of the scenario could also come into play again.
The confluence of the maze is also quite large. The time zone of the maze. This will be a great help in overcoming the difficulties of Room 203, where ‘joining’ itself is extremely difficult.
and… .
My sister directly mentioned the thoughts that were passing through everyone’s minds.
“I’ll just be honest. “Why don’t you try killing Ahri, who Miro summoned to this time zone?”
Ari yawned and said.
“If possible, kill me painlessly. For your information, you know that I won’t die easily even if my limbs are cut off, right? “Head, head.”
Before I even started the Cursed Room, I suddenly burst into laughter when I saw my ‘companions’ researching how to kill each other and Ari telling me how to kill myself.
Miro adapted to this crazy atmosphere better than expected.
“Then, as soon as you call Ari, can you hit his head with a hammer? like this?”
Where on earth did he get it? Even Ari was momentarily speechless at the sight of Miro tapping Ari’s head with a small hand hammer.
“… maze. Seriously, just explain the situation to me. Anyway, I know everything about this situation. “If you explain, I will kill myself.”
“okay.”
“… Put the hammer away.”
“Now, wait!”
I stopped it because it felt like they were smoothly going in the direction of killing Ari.
“Everyone seems to have forgotten, but the ‘seal’ was created to break it, not to destroy it. Strangely, in room 203, Ari, who was sealed away, is fighting us like an adversary… .”
My sister also nodded.
“That’s right. “If Ari returns to his senses in that situation, a lot of information will come out to solve the problem.”
At this point, everyone became quiet and lost in thought for a moment. During that time, I thought back to the situation in room 203 for a moment.
In the primeval era, when you cross the mountain range, you will see traces of a fallen civilization and Ari running wild.
There is an unidentified whale-like entity in the sky, and that entity creates abundance just by floating in the sky.
I still don’t know why, but if you follow the whale’s shadow, you can escape.
… I do not know. I had no idea what was going on in room 203.
After leaving room 203, I remembered the story I heard from the owl. Did I tell you to focus on the choices that paid off instead of dwelling on the ones that failed?
“Shall we all follow the whale’s shadow this time? “I think the advice was to try that.”
Ari had a slightly different opinion.
“The owl gave that advice, but did he necessarily mean that everyone should follow it?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Why don’t we follow the whale for half of it and secure its escape, and then try to break my seal with the rest?”
“Umm… .”
It was not easy for everyone to come to a conclusion.
I was thinking about asking for advice one more time, but I stopped. I have to enter the cursed room again today, but I’m anxious about writing this before I even enter, and since there’s so little information, it’s difficult to even ask.
At that time, a strange sound was heard.
— Support!
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“that! that! “The hotel TV is on!”
“Eh?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the display hanging on the wall.
Suddenly, a video of a woman dressed in cow clothes crawling out of a well started playing on the screen. She slowly approached her screen and stretched out her hand –
— Bang!
“Ah, really silly things!”
The old man got irritated and blew up the screen with his gun. His older brother hit his forehead.
“It looks like you should hurry up and get in! “It’s amazing.”
In the end, the meeting ended quickly. Realistically, there was nothing more to say.
In the primitive era, each person had to lead the primitive people in various parts of the continent, but would they be able to do that even if they set up a strategy in advance?
Since there are too many variables, the proportion of each person’s spontaneous judgment is bound to increase.
“Then Majimaak! Let me borrow some time. Hotel~! “You know this has to wait, right?”
Miro came out here and borrowed Ari’s time.
An hour later, when I came to my senses, the surrounding area was a mess. Ari and I’s expressions hardened as we discovered the corpses of the three monster monkeys we had seen on our first day at the hotel, lying all over the place.
“… What on earth is this?”
“Let’s not talk nonsense and go in quickly. “I didn’t know what would happen if I entered the cursed room while you were away, so I waited, and then the baby monkeys came out again.”
— Slam!

…
…
…
My body doesn’t move. My vision is blurry and I can’t hear well.
what? Sensory blockage due to total paralysis? Maybe I sealed it? That can’t be possible?
What the hell is this –
— Chi-ik!
Along with the strange sound of the gas valve opening, a hot energy began to circulate throughout my body.
At first, my sense of touch awakened and I realized that my body was trapped in a very narrow place, and then my vision and hearing returned to normal.
I heard the sound of something opening and saw a human-like figure outside. When the body finally started to move slowly, ‘Ari’ approached.
what? Wasn’t Ahri sealed? I wanted to ask because I wanted to know what this was –
[Advice: 3 -> 2]
[Close your mouth and observe the situation.]
“Han Ga-in, have you come to your senses?”
“…”
“Han Ga-in?”
“…”
“Uhm… . It seems like you’re having a hard time understanding the situation. Do not worry. “This sometimes happens when you wake up from a long cryosleep.”
The being in front of me is not Ari. It’s ‘something’ that borrows Ari’s body!
The other person seems to think there is something wrong with my memory. I used that to ask carefully.
“you… . Who is it?”
The being who borrowed Ahri’s body smiled brightly and said.
“Ohh! Have you forgotten that? I am the main AI of ‘Pride of Humanity’. “Please call me ‘Pride.’”
Pride?
“Han Ga-in, let’s get moving first. As you walk through the spaceship, your memories will come back. And there’s a reason why I woke up Han Ga-in.”
Wasn’t the setting of No. 203 the primitive era? But suddenly, what is the ‘Pride of Humanity’? Main AI on a spaceship? Suddenly it’s science fiction?
I asked, holding on to my dazed mind and following ‘Pride’.
“… Why did you wake me up?”
“Adravita has a problem. “I don’t know if you remember this part, but Han Ga-in and Yoo Song-i were in charge of communication with Adravita.”
What is Adravita?
… I thought as I walked down the pure white hallway.
First, the scenario has changed. This is something that happened once in Room 102, the Mansion of Fear. Looking back, the situation is similar. In issue 102, the scenario changed when Ari and her grandfather joined after the first attempt.
Is it because Miro joined this time? But why? Miro isn’t really a character in the scenario, is he?
Second, Ari’s body is occupied by a being called ‘Pride’. Based on the circumstances, it appears that they are our adversaries who fought us in the first attempt, but they do not seem to have a hostile relationship now.
So now is the distant past from the time of the first attempt? Are the items that resemble the ‘hazardous suit’ Seungyeop saw the spacesuits on this spaceship?
Third, where are the other colleagues? Is everyone in cryosleep? How do I wake up? If I ask the AI, will it wake me up?
While in confusion, I unfolded my understanding of the scenario –
‘Pride’ suddenly turned back and asked.
“It seemed like you were looking into space earlier. Do you see anything strange?”
I felt it intuitively. No. It’s not just a feeling. A while ago, when I tried to talk to the other person without knowing how to act like ‘Ari’, the advice worked immediately, right?
Crisis notification always works only when my life is in danger. Therefore, ‘pride’ is a dangerous thing.
“What are you talking about? “I was just thinking about it?”
“Is that so? sorry. In fact, Adravita has been trying to contaminate the spaceship for a few days now.”
“… pollution?”
“I was worried that Han Ga-in might also be ‘contaminated.’”
“…”
– Bang!
‘Pride’ turned back again, holding the doorknob of the huge room.
“Han Ga-in, please. As you know, this guy refuses to communicate with me. And activate your mental protection to maximum.”
“What should I do?”
“I’ll go in with you, so you can tell me what I say.”
I quickly put the status window filter over my entire field of vision, and the door opened.
Beyond – I saw the ‘giant eye’.
