Immediately after spreading the hosts and seeds he created throughout the dimension.
Ryumin returned to the 102nd world line.
To none other than home.
‘The god of the dimension has been captured, and the phantoms will take care of the other world lines. There’s nothing to worry about anymore.’
Now is the time to live your own life.
Ryu Min’s family welcomed him back after a week.
“Min-ah. “Did you have a good trip?”
“yes. “I saw a lot of good things here and there.”
“brother! “Did you take a picture?”
“huh. here.”
Ryumin secured an alibi by showing his family travel photos he had taken in advance.
In fact, even though there were various penances to stop the god of the dimension.
‘Rather than that, only a week has passed in this world line, hasn’t it?’
The time spent traveling around dozens or hundreds of world lines would have taken more than several months.
It was unfair that such efforts were reduced to just a week in this world.
‘By the way, it’s a good thing I told you in advance that I was going on a trip. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to convince him.’
When I read the thoughts of the family, the injection of memories had disappeared.
It was the same not only with my family, but also with going out and reading people’s thoughts.
The world that was in chaos has now become somewhat quiet.
I no longer had to doubt myself due to conflicting memories or blame myself for being mentally ill.
‘Even so, the aftermath remains.’
Since we did not turn back time, we were able to confirm evidence of the chaotic period through mass media and Internet articles.
Of course, people did not know what they were thinking when they wrote it, nor did they remember it.
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t think of words like [survival game], [player], or [round].
‘But it’s true that the feelings from back then remain and I still feel anxious.’
Even so, there is no problem.
Because the phantoms released in each country will protect the world.
Not just here, but all the world lines we manage.
‘Now I can live the rest of my life comfortably, managing the remaining dimensions from time to time… … .’
At that time, Ryumin’s cell phone trembled.
[Minjoo-ri: Min-ah, where are you? Is it your house?]
[Minjoo-ri: I have something urgent to say, can we meet now?]
[Minjoo-ri: It’s a bit awkward to talk over the phone. We have to meet and talk. please!]
What’s going on that’s sending me a ton of text messages?
Ryu Min was puzzled but sent a reply.
[Ryu Min: Yes. Where should I see it?]
After setting up an appointment, I got ready to leave right away.
“Brother, where are you going?”
“Meet Juri.”
“Sister Juri? “Why that sister?”
“I don’t know. “I have urgent business.”
Ryumin left the house with just those words.
Ryu Won pondered his brother’s words in front of the front door.
“Urgent? Why is it so urgent that you call your brother? It seems suspicious… … .”
At this time, Ryu Won had an intuition.
I think maybe Juri’s older sister likes her older brother.
* * *
Ryu Won’s intuition was correct.
“Min-ah. “I have something to tell you.”
“… … .”
Ryu Min knew what Min Joo-ri, who was sitting across from him, was going to say even though she had not yet gotten to the point.
Because without realizing it, I read it as the rune of my inner heart.
‘You called me here for this?’
Before Min Joo-ri could prepare her mind, she opened her mouth.
“I love you.”
“… … .”
I mustered up the courage to confess, but Ryu Min still didn’t respond.
Minjoo-ri’s complexion turned bright red.
But since the words had already been said, there was no way to pick them up.
All I have to do is push on.
“Joe, it’s been a while since I liked you. About a year? Still, you are my first love and I really like you. Well, I mean, our company… .”
“OK.”
“ear… huh?”
“You’re saying we want to date. Let’s do it.”
Cool acceptance that was different from what I expected.
However, there was a separate statement that really surprised Minjoo-ri.
“Or you could just get married first.”
“Uh, huh? Huh, marriage?”
Minjoo-ri’s voice must have been loud, as people in the cafe gathered their attention.
“Your voice is too loud.”
“I’m sorry.”
“You have nothing to be sorry about.”
“Oh, no, what do you mean? marriage… What do you mean? “Did I hear wrong?”
Ryumin spoke with a calm face.
“It’s just as I heard. “I’m saying don’t waste time dating and get married first.”
“Ji, are you serious?”
“huh.”
An extremely serious expression.
Anyone could see that it wasn’t a joke.
I wasn’t the type to mess around with things like this.
Minjoo-ri asked cautiously.
“Why are you suddenly asking me to get married?” “Can I find out?”
“It’s because I don’t like seeing people go while dating. “I have feelings for you anyway, and so do you, right?”
“Do you have feelings for me?”
“of course.”
Although he didn’t express it all this time, Ryu Min had feelings for Min Joo-ri.
Of course, it wasn’t from the beginning.
In the past, I thought of you as just a friend.
‘But now it’s different than before.’
From the first round to the final round.
If we count the 100th and 101st sessions, the number of years we have overcome hardships together is 4 years.
Among them, Min Joo-ri was closer to me than anyone else and spent more time with me than anyone else.
‘It’s true that we became closer and felt more comfortable because we were the same age.’
In particular, he couldn’t help but be attracted to Min-ri Min because he could tell through the runes in his heart how much he liked him and how sincere it was.
Sincerity is such a powerful law.
“Honestly, I never thought I would be able to date someone in my life. “I didn’t have time to do that.”
It was true.
When you’re in such a hurry to escape the game of survival, where can you find the mental space to date?
“But it’s different now. The situation has stabilized, and now I want to start a family, settle down, and live a leisurely life. If possible, with you, who I like.”
“… … .”
Ryu Min’s confession.
Normally, he would have lowered his head out of shame, but Min-ri Min looked straight ahead.
To figure out whether Ryumin’s words were sincere or not.
‘I’m serious.’
Min Joo-ri, who read the sincerity in his eyes, slightly lowered her head and smiled.
There was a sense of relief at the fact that our hearts were in sync with each other.
“I can’t believe you liked me too… … “I’m glad it’s not unrequited love.”
Min-ri Min, who was smiling brightly, suddenly took on a determined expression.
“I decided too.”
“what?”
“I want to marry you. “Without romance.”
A remark that would have been alarming if his father, Min Do-hoon, had heard it.
“Are you confident you won’t regret it?”
Ryu Min asked as if he was scared, but Min Joo-ri nodded.
His eyes were so firm that they were like pumpkins.
“I don’t regret it. “You proposed first, so I should accept it.”
“Was this a proposal…? ?”
“It’s a proposal. “You asked me to marry you first, right?”
Minjoo-ri smiled playfully, but only for a moment.
flinch-
Suddenly Ryumin grabs her hand.
“There needs to be a ring on this finger to propose.”
“Well, that…” go?”
“wait. “I’ll put a big diamond on it soon.”
Min Joo-ri’s heart pounded at the sight of Ryu Min speaking like a man, and she couldn’t even look at him properly.
My face turned red again, as if it had never happened before.
“Anyway, was this something urgent?”
“uh? Yes… I feel like if I don’t confess now, I won’t be able to do it for the rest of my life… … .”
Ryu Min’s eyes became sad after hearing those words.
‘Does the fear of survival games still remain?’
The aftereffects of memory implantation still remained in people.
That seems to have been the same for Minjoo-ri as well.
The fear that a game of survival will arise again and we will be divided.
That’s why he came to Ryu Min and confessed in a hurry.
Of course, now that her memory has disappeared, she can’t remember the survival game, but the anxious feelings from that time remain for Min Joo-ri.
‘I need to make sure of this before I get married, right?’
Ryu Min spoke to Min Joo-ri with a somewhat serious expression.
“Juri.”
“huh?”
“What do you think is the most important thing in marriage?”
“Uhm… trust?”
“okay. Trust, right? I think so too, right? “There should be no secrets between married couples.”
“huh. “I feel the same way.”
“So that’s what I’m saying… “There are issues that need to be addressed before we get married.”
“problem… ?”
“hmm… that is… … .”
Why the hesitation?
Min-ri Min was curious, but listened quietly.
“I have a secret. “A secret so big it’s hard to believe.”
“secret? “What is it?”
“You might be shocked when you hear it.”
“are you okay. “As long as it’s not something perverted.”
Although he said it jokingly, Ryu Min was serious without changing his expression.
At the same time, Minjoo-ri also became more serious.
“I am different from other ordinary people. “He has what is commonly called superpowers.”
“candle… ability?”
Minjoo-ri was momentarily taken aback by the remark, which went far beyond the scope of expectations.
Ryumin saw that and decided that it would be difficult to convince him simply with words.
“Do you want to know how I got my super powers?”
“huh.”
“Then I’ll share it with you. “A memory of everything I’ve been through.”
* * *
Marriage is based on mutual trust.
Because of that, Ryu Min had no choice but to reveal the secret.
‘Because I can’t hide my abilities forever.’
Even if you hide it from your family, you cannot hide it from Min Joo-ri.
Should I hide the truth about myself from my partner, with whom I will be living under the same roof for decades?
I can’t help but feel guilty because I don’t have the confidence to live with it for the rest of my life.
Marriage that takes place while hiding one’s true identity is tantamount to a fraudulent marriage.
‘So Min-ri needs to know. Everything about me.’
That’s why Ryu Min shared his memories with Min Joo-ri.
I don’t know what the reaction will be, though.
‘I might get shocked and faint. Or they might look at me like a monster.’
I took that risk and proceeded with the work.
The method was simple.
With the power of creation, he copies the memories of Minjoo-ri from another parallel world.
And the memory is instilled in Min Joo-ri here.
In short, it is a memory injection procedure performed on only one subject.
‘Would he really accept marriage even after knowing everything about me?’
After implanting the memory, Ryu Min looked at Min Ri in silence.
I didn’t know how she would react, but I went ahead with it because it was what she wanted.
Because, in any case, the injected memories could be deleted again.
“ah… … .”
Min Joo-ri was confused as she looked into space for a moment.
He seemed to be struggling under the flood of memories, but soon regained his stability.
All memories were accepted and understood.
“This happened… “It actually happened?”
Ryumin nodded.
The Democratic Party of today is not the Democratic Party we knew a little while ago.
Like himself, he has both memories of the parallel world and memories of the present.
It was the only democracy of the 102nd world line.
“Do you believe it now? “What abilities do I have and what have I done so far?”
Minjoo-ri nodded silently.
“Can you marry me like this?”
Min-ri Min raised her head in response to Ryu Min’s question.
It was a meaningless question to begin with.
One way or another, Min-ri Min loved Ryu-min.
“I want to get married. “With a black scythe.”
That’s how their marriage was concluded.
