Wise Man’s Advice: 1”
– Han Ga-in
I think while observing a transparently shining mirror.
About the incident earlier where Aidia surprised us.
“Did you find something?”
“Our Lady, can you give me a little more time?”
“Oh, I’m not recruiting.”
If we and Aidia fight 4 to 1, who will win?
If we clash properly, we will probably win.
But, earlier, I almost lost without even being able to catch my breath.
This is because Aidia instantly drove out her other colleagues with the power of her legacy, the ‘Taegeukdo (太極圖)’.
What if the Virgin Mary and I had a one-on-one clash in that situation?
I can’t say for sure since I don’t know Aidia’s power, but I think the odds of her losing were higher.
What if the Virgin Mary who defeated me attacks my other colleagues?
Anyone but Ari would have died without even being able to properly rebel.
It was a huge crisis, not that Aidia had any intention of fighting us.
Why did I end up in such a desperate situation?
This is because I didn’t know about the existence of the ‘Taegeukdo’, the legacy of Aedia.
Because I didn’t know, I couldn’t even breathe the first time it happened.
I have another similar experience.
The first time Ryan Raymond tried to fool me with his power of communication, I couldn’t even raise a hand.
The reason is the same.
Because I had no idea about my opponent’s abilities.
In a fight between participants, it is not the absolute strength of a fight that determines the winner.
It is far more important to know each other’s abilities and heritage.
The Virgin Mary must still have more hidden powers.
We have it too.
A power we know among ourselves but not the Virgin Mary!
If we add ‘hostage’ to this… .
Yes, now is the time.
“ah?”
“Did you find anything strange?”
He looked at Aidyah, scratching his head.
“The guys from the management office are coming.”
“… I’m sorry about what happened earlier -”
“It’s okay. I’ll explain it to my friends, so don’t worry.”
Perhaps worried about the situation of fighting Ari and the others, Aidia’s expression brightened slightly after hearing what I said.
Soon, Ari and Jincheol approached with a look of anger shooting out of their eyes.
“Aidia! How dare you -”
“Okay, okay, calm down!”
When I smiled and waved my hand, Ari and Jincheol stopped, looking embarrassed.
“Gain, are you okay?”
“Of course. What about Eunsol?”
“It’s far away. I guess Ari and I are faster.”
“There was a bit of a misunderstanding with Aidy. It’s all cleared up now, isn’t it, Our Lady?”
Aidy smiled awkwardly and nodded.
“Well, I apologize for what happened a little while ago.”
“…”
At the moment when Ari frowned, he shouted with an urgent look.
“Eww!”
“What, what is it?”
“Saint?”
“What’s going on -”
“Wernicke-Tarshkov alignment confirmed! Spacetime coordinate collapse of mirror-like conformer 37! Oh, how could this happen!”
The Virgin Mary opened her eyes wide.
“Wh, what are you talking about -”
The moment when her eyes filled with an unmistakable embarrassment –
— Flutter!
The grimoire was opened.
“Oh? There’s a book like this too -”
The Virgin Mary’s movements are slowed down by the power of the incarnation.
Aidy’s eyes, realizing the change, immediately turned lively!
“you -!”
The moment when the Virgin Mary, who had not expected the power of the incarnation, stopped!
Comrades who realized belatedly that the fight had begun joined the fight.
Ominously glowing polyhedrons distorted space.
The blazing white rays of the sun scorched the Virgin Mary’s body.
A star fragment emitting ominous waves revealed its power.
and –
— Phagec!
Our Lady took all these attacks!
The moment the Taegeuk diagram drew a circle, the divine sun and the polyhedron’s offensive simultaneously disappeared without a trace!
“Ugh! What is this!”
Was the only thing that ignored the Taegeukdo and showed its power a piece of a star from another world?
But the Virgin Mary’s body itself is completely different from that of an ordinary human being!
Sure enough, the Clifford Crystals all over the Virgin Mary’s body emitted a purple glow and the disintegration of her flesh stopped.
Can the Virgin Mary continue to endure?
If the fight drags on, won’t the star fragments eventually break through the crystal’s protection?
However, even with the power of the incarnation, it was impossible to suppress the Virgin Mary!
“Saint! I tried to believe you, but you did this to me! Are you trying to do this?”
“Eww! Is this guy really human?”
“Hey, you’re a lizard, what kind of person are you!”
“Saint! You may not know it, but I will not spare a single one of these insects!”
“This is too much! Gain started the fight, why only us?”
Ari, is he joking in the middle of all this?
For a moment, even the Virgin Mary glared at Ari as if she found it ridiculous.
“The light of judgment will crush the wicked….”
And then, at that moment, golden waves burst out from the Virgin Mary’s eyes!
I accepted it obediently.
Aidya, this girl is really freaking strong.
Let’s be honest.
Even if we fill up the sacred sun, it seems difficult to guarantee victory.
Well, that’s why the previous wisdom warned us in advance not to let Elena die.
Even though it was a surprise attack, I didn’t know it would be this difficult… .
This is an opponent that is extremely strong in both offense and defense, so if you continue to fight with a straight line, you will suffer great losses.
…
Of course, there is nothing as meaningless as a word like ‘orthodoxy’.
There’s no referee in a fight like this, and if you cheat you get points deducted!
“Virgin Mary -”
“Saint! I will cut off your head while it is still alive -”
“Look here.”
A white-hot ray of heat aimed at the mirror.
“you….”
Aidia had a completely blank expression on her face.
At this moment, the Virgin Mary also realized.
If we fight any louder here, the mirror will be broken regardless of whether we win or lose!
The moment she stopped with a blank expression.
— Click!
Ariga took out her camera like lightning and pressed the shutter.
“Eww! This kid is resisting the power of the camera too!”
“Holy Mother, are you really going to see it through to the end?”
“… Saint. What are you thinking?”
“I’m just looking for a happy ending.”
“…”
“Our Lady, you kicked out all my colleagues just now. We suffered a loss once, so you think it’s your turn to suffer this time.”
“…”
“Don’t forget. Who woke the moon? I too am making plans for the prince of the moon. Only, my method is a little different from yours.”
“…”
— Click!
Second shutter sound.
This time the Virgin did not resist.
*
The beach was shattered in an instant as if several missiles had been dropped on it.
The colleagues stood there for a moment, muttering in silence.
“Really, this human is ridiculous.”
“Taegeukdo? Is that a defense-specific heritage?”
I also added a word.
“Clipport Crystal, Taegeukdo. Both Legacies seem to have considerable defensive abilities. It seems like the Blessing of Justice is used strictly for offensive purposes.”
“… It’s scary.”
Brother Jincheol just stuck his tongue out.
“I thought that among the contestants, Ga-in would be as ignorant as you are?”
“…”
“Wisdom of the past? After seeing that crazy guy, I realized that there are guys several times stronger than you.”
“…”
“The Virgin Mary is no joke.”
As I listened, I sighed.
“If you think about it, aren’t the two or more strong people who have escaped the average? They’re the middle layer of the pyramid.”
Jincheol muttered with his head down.
“… Then me?”
Ariga replied with a laugh.
“This is the bottom of the pyramid. What are you asking? Gain.”
“okay.”
“What was that thing about Wernicke earlier?”
“what?”
“Confirmed Wernicke-Tarshkov alignment! Collapse of spacetime coordinates of mirror-like conformer 37! What is this?”
“It doesn’t make any sense. I was just talking nonsense. Is the photo okay? Can you really seal the Virgin Mary with it?”
“… It’ll be quiet for a while. It won’t last long. It’s such a monster, I think it’ll tear up the photos and come out within a week.”
“That’s tricky. Should I just put the photo in the deep sea or lava?”
“…”
“Or how about sending a photo into space?”
“I’m thinking the same thing, but first, tell me what’s been going on so far.”
I thought about it as I explained what had happened so far to my colleagues, including Eunsol, who had suddenly appeared.
What is the current situation?
A world rushing towards its end as the moon awakens.
Since I couldn’t find the answer through normal means, I set a point of regression and woke up the moon.
As a result, many secrets revealed after the destruction were discovered.
The true identity of the marauder who opposes the moon.
A giant mirror that can upset the balance of the tripartite structure.
Just as the plunderer is an ark, the moon is also an ark.
Therefore, the weakness of being vulnerable to mirrors will also be the same.
Let’s say we turn back time.
The Bureau Ark returns to its original state and the Moon is once again trapped underground on Earth.
What if at that point we wipe out the Silent Ones and get our hands on the Ark of the Management Bureau along with the Wisdom of the Elders?
A plunderer who acquires the mirror may be able to neutralize the moon.
At this point, I think we have roughly figured out how to conquer the moon.
“What do you think? Does this seem like a solution?”
The colleagues who were listening to the explanation thought deeply for a moment, and then Eunsol answered.
“So, you’re saying that we’re going to join hands with the looters to neutralize the sealed moon?”
“yes.”
“… The answer is the answer, but doesn’t it seem like a 30-point answer in hotel terms?”
“Hmm….”
The moon is both a source of destruction and a breakwater against marauders.
Once the moon is gone, the next raiders – other arks – will come looking to take over the now-safe world.
This will soon be the beginning of a new, great war.
Of course, whoever wins, it’s better than a victory on the moon.
The plunderers are ultimately another administration, another Vatican, so whoever wins will continue human civilization.
So, even if it’s 30 points, the answer is the answer.
“Do you think there’s a better way, Sister?”
“Sorry. Ari doesn’t even know?”
“… It’s difficult.”
My colleagues became quiet again.
Aren’t there any better possibilities?
Is there no way to drive out the moon and also end the problem of the marauders?
I would like to get an answer that is around 80 points, if not 100 points.
“Advice: 1 -> 0”
‘Could there be a better possibility?’
“A truly wise man designs a game in which everyone can win.”
“This is a game where everyone can win….”
“Did you write some advice?”
“Well, the truly wise set the table so that everyone can win.”
“That’s a story I’ve heard before.”
“The same thing came out again.”
Jincheol tilted his head.
“Am I mistaken? This is some kind of fight for the chair that is going on right now.”
“Yes.”
To summarize all the problems very roughly, this is it.
A person sitting on a chair.
A person who tries to steal a chair.
A person who tries to break a chair.
If we plug the 30-point answer into the above analogy, it would be like kicking out the person who tries to break the chair from the board.
“How can everyone win in a fight over a chair? Does that make sense? Oh, how can we all live peacefully together on one chair?”
Ari shook her head firmly.
“If that were possible, we wouldn’t have fought in the first place.”
“Then what do you want me to do?”
“… I know.”
I got an answer worth about 30 points, but I don’t know anything more than that.
A moment of confusion for everyone.
— Ring!
The phone rang.
“Hmm? It’s not mine -”
“It’s my phone. Who’s calling right now – ugh! This is delightful!”
A call from Delight Hotel at this time?
Ari was startled and immediately picked up the phone.
“Mironi? Are you okay? How’s the situation?”
After a while.
Ariga looked at us with a blank expression.
Sister Eunsol asked urgently.
“What? Why haven’t you been in touch with me for so long?”
“… Eunsol.”
“huh?”
“That’s what Mukseong said just now.”
“uh.”
The following story left everyone silent.
“… Delight Hotel is changing into ‘Pioneer’.”
