The Status Window Disappeared - Chapter 148



It’s hard to leave home (10)

Chris, who lost consciousness before boarding the merchant ship, barely opened his eyes after a few days.

You can see the wooden ceiling and the hammock, and hear the stuttering sound of crashing waves.

He could easily tell that the ship he was on was sailing.

“ah… Chris.”

Before Hye-seon, the head maid who was taking care of him, could say anything, her eyes closed again.

It is as if someone is forcibly closing their eyelids.

The weak body was forced to go into sleep mode.

After repeating fainting and awakening several times, at some point, my eyelids stopped closing.

Chris, who managed to raise his heavy body, found it difficult to balance in the swaying cabin.

Yuyun, who was dozing next to him, looked at his body in surprise.

“You are fully awake! Are you okay? The symptoms of mana depletion were so severe that I shared some of mine… … .”

“Thanks to you, I’m stuck. It was really dangerous this time.”

Chris, who quickly opened the status window, clicked his tongue when he saw the almost non-existent level of magic.

His vitality was very strong, but it did not help much with the symptoms of mana depletion.

If the magic power in the body drops infinitely close to 0, recovery is not easy, and maintaining the spirit itself becomes impossible. Elgar, the best necromancer of this era, did not suffer from magic deficiency for nothing.

Chris, who was sitting on the hammock, was breathing, and Yoo-yoon woke Ye-ryun and Hye-seon.

They were sleeping soundly, but they should have plenty of time to sleep anyway.

As soon as he saw him come to his senses, the delighted Ye-ryun swept his chest and greeted him.

“You finally woke up. I was worried that you might not be able to wake up like this.”

“ah… thank you. We are going west right now, right?”

Chris, who felt that Ye-ryun’s appearance was strangely awkward, decided to check the most important fact first.

She nodded happily and helped him out of the cabin.

The cabin where the four people were located was located in the center of the ship, as if it had been made by renovating a warehouse.

It’s midnight, so the place is pretty quiet.

Ye-ryun, who climbed onto the deck with fairly familiar steps, showed the appearance of a large cargo ship while shivering slightly in the cold night air.

Dozens of small lanterns can be seen around the ship moving on the night sea.

It means that this ship is not alone in the sea, but is sailing with a proper fleet.

The escape I found in haste was so wonderful.

At this point, simple luck is a bit excessive.

Chris returned to the cabin, replacing his doubts with certainty.

Ye-ryun studied his expression carefully and sparing no words until the cabin door closed before opening her mouth.

The two women look bewildered at the expression and voice stained with guilt.

“Chris. As you may have vaguely guessed, I have an apology to Chris. No, I have to apologize not only to Chris, but to everyone else.”

“Ye-ryun, what do you mean by that? I don’t know Chris, but why are we apologizing… … .”

As the sinner’s confession began, Chris uttered his doubts.

“As expected, Ye-ryun-nim also had it, right?”

“yes.”

“Do you have it? What are the two of you talking about now… … .”

Hye-seon and Yoo-yun, unable to keep up with their conversation, ask anxiously.

Chris decided to answer their questions as well as organize his thoughts.

“That’s a clairvoyant. Judging from the appearance of the imperial palace, it seems that the other members of the royal family did not have this issue.

“No, that is nonsense! If Ye-ryun was born with clairvoyance, why did she suffer so much humiliation?”

Taken aback by Chris’ words, Hye-sun raised a legitimate question.

As she has been with Ye-ryun for a long time and closer than anyone else in this room, these words penetrate the core.

Chris did not deny her defense.

“that’s right. I didn’t understand that either, so I stayed silent until now. But no matter how lucky you are.”

Fortunately, Ye-ryun, who came across the player summoning spell, summoned Chris very fortunately.

And Chris turned the palace upside down to save her, and Ye-ryun escaped with him and did not encounter a single enemy.

Not only that, she managed to escape to the Western Continent by joining a very good cargo fleet.

When Chris points out the fact step by step, doubt forms on Yoo-yun and Hye-sun’s faces.

Ye-ryun, the protagonist of all this commotion, takes over the role of narrator by nodding her head at Chris’ words.

“Chris is right. In fact, I planned this whole thing from start to finish. Chris came out of the player summoning spell, and the reactions of the royal family were all the same as I saw.”

Hye-sun loses her voice due to Ye-ryun’s approval.

At least, he pointed out that Yuyun, who had been keeping his cool, was not convinced.

“Even if both of you are right, you will need an unbelievable amount of clairvoyance to make it happen. Even the first emperor of the Qin Empire did not have that level of ability.”

Ye-ryun responded with a smile at her words.

Chris, who was comparing the words of the two, raised Ye-ryun’s hand inwardly.

Looking at what she has done so far, it is correct to say that her clairvoyance is superior to that of the first emperor.

The odds are higher than the odds that all of this was a coincidence.

After roughly organizing his thoughts, Chris asks the same question as Hye-sun earlier.

“Now explain. You had such a powerful clairvoyance, so why have you been treated like a hukou for half your life? And even with death threats. Since the imperial family of the Qin Empire was founded thanks to clairvoyance, you could have ascended to the next throne.”

“Chris, do you know what it is like to see the future?”

Ye-ryun smiled sadly as she answered Chris’ question with a question.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to quote the answer of the presenter.

“You said it was like dreaming.”

“That was the story of my brothers and sisters, who had powers at the level of dregs. A true clairvoyant is not like that.”

Ye-ryun, who was standing near the entrance of the cabin, sat down on the low-hanging hammock.

As she confided in her secrets, she seemed honest and refreshing like never before.

A slightly brooding voice resumes its explanation softly.

“The future I see is vivid enough to be indistinguishable from reality. Let’s say the future is a play. If the other members of the imperial family sit on the other side of the curtain and watch the shadows of the actors, I am close to going inside and acting.”

“Awesome. I hope you are strong.”

Chris, who had completely lost consideration for training, spoke sarcasticly.

Having been used to her liking, he felt a great sense of betrayal.

The reason why I didn’t draw my sword right now was because I had affection.

Ye-ryun, who had been watching his expression, shook her head slightly and denied it.

“Not at all. The degree of this vividness is too much to do. In order for me to see one week ahead, I have to use my clairvoyance to live the next week. If you don’t get the results you want, you have to change the way you live for a week from the beginning.”

The faces of those who heard her words hardened slightly.

A future experience that cannot be fast-forwarded or jumped over.

Just hearing the words made me feel like I was out of breath.

Then, I supplemented the realization that the detailed case was lacking.

“I prepared this plan a month before Chris came. Until this plan was completed, I spent more than a year in the future world created by the clairvoyant. During that year, I was stabbed several times, scorned, and had to bow down to find the answer.”

Chris recalled the expression on her face immediately after the banquet with her stage name.

Her emptiness, which frightened even Chris, who had gone through all of the prenatal battles, must have come from that experience.

An overly perfect clairvoyant was like a curse to Ye-ryun.

Unless it’s a life-threatening matter like this one, you’d want to keep it sealed as much as possible.

The human body lasts for about 100 years at most.

Then what about the mind?

If the lifespan of the body were extended by nearly 1,000 years, would the mind be able to withstand it?

Chris didn’t have the confidence to last 300 years.

Just like the body, the mind has its own lifespan.

Ye Lian, who was born with the most powerful clairvoyance of anyone in the Qin Empire, realized it early on.

Because of this, he deliberately postponed his incompetence in order to avoid wearing out his mind too quickly.

The pain of my clairvoyance far outweighed the pain of being scorned and ignored by my siblings and parents.

“My clairvoyant is vivid and vivid, but it’s really not fun. Have you ever found out the back story of a book you enjoyed reading? no. In my case, it would be more like re-reading a book I had read until I got tired of it.”

Yeh-ryun, who was delighted with Chris’ serious response, continued.

In the case of a book with spoilers, you can stop reading it, but what should her life be like?

Should I commit suicide?

Understanding her dilemma, Chris sighs deeply and puts the rest of the puzzle together.

“I know about your clairvoyance. So how far have you looked this time?”

“I watched until this voyage ended safely. If you read more than that, it’s no fun.”

“Then how did you manipulate the results of the royal family tournament? They expected you to escape.”

Chris asked, remembering that Ye-myeong and other members of the royal family tried to execute Ye-ryun.

Only then does Ye-ryun reveal her trick.

“I was thinking of letting Chris know about my abilities if I can pass the great meeting safely. Then, Chris-sama will somehow escape the Jin Empire with me.”

“her… Doesn’t that cause a time paradox?”

“My brothers and sisters have many loopholes in their precognitive abilities, which is fine. It’s not like I can perfectly read the future in the first place. I guess I just missed it because I couldn’t read it.”

Chris was momentarily speechless at her answer.

A ploy that uses the opponent’s foresight ability against them.

Far from publicizing his ability, he twisted the future just by making up his mind to publicize it.

After the confession, Ye-ryun bowed her head to Chris.

“Even with my intervention, Chris fought the imperial palace for me. That’s something I’m really grateful for. So, I’m going to pay off this debt by Chris’s side. Of course, this is only if Chris allows it.”

I wondered where she was going from now on, but it seems that she was going to Vector.

Chris shook his head, still trembling at the thought of being tricked.

From now on, the evil god he plans to face is a very formidable adversary.

An existence superior enough to use monsters such as Helyuon and Nakboros as ruin guards, and cooperate with the 5 knights of Arios.

In order to fight against such a bastard, you must not make a single mistake.

It would be a waste to let go of the training that can eliminate such mistakes.

If he wants to go somewhere else, he is a person who needs to be taken, even if he has to be kidnapped.

Chris, who played in Ye-ryun’s hands from beginning to end, asked with a lot of displeasure.

“You probably saw my answer beforehand. But do you really want to escape the Qin Empire and go to Vector and use your clairvoyance? You played incompetence to avoid using it in the first place.”

“Of course, I have no intention of overdoing it. Chris is a wonderful person, and I am sure he will understand my situation.”

Yeh-ryun, who spoke abominably, held out her hand politely.

Adjusting the intensity of work according to her condition is not difficult.

Even if you use the clairvoyance freely, it will be much better than not having it at all.

Stealing information directly from the future is truly a great foul.

Chris, who gave a pained voice, decided to follow the expected result.

It’s a bit unpleasant because it feels like he’s being manipulated at will, but it’s never a loss to him either.

Holding Ye-ryun’s slim hand, he soon laid his tired body on the hammock and turned his back to her.

Ye-ryun, who had been standing behind him for a moment, turned to apologize to Yoo-yun and Hye-seon.
