You Didn’t Tell Me the Start of My Transmigration Was a Gate - Chapter 373



Only Krnovel

Special Extra Episode 12

I have painful memories, but what if the reason for the pain disappears? What if there is no logical way to explain why I am suffering and in pain?

What if, even if I were to be honest, I would be treated as a typical PTSD symptom and end up in a mental hospital?

Naturally, you will choose to keep your mouth shut and remain silent.

-I was mistaken and forgot what I had buried.

-Don’t joke around. If you never look at it, it’s no different from forgetting it.

I remembered the voice that whispered like the wind. Letahtahd brushed back his purple hair and looked at me as if I were a child who had lost his parents.

At that time, I couldn’t understand those eyes at all.

I think I thought that since I was finally starting a new life, there was no need to be stuck in the past.

So what did Retahtadt answer…?

-A forced burial is nothing but a grave.

According to Retahtaed, I had several large graves piled up in my heart.

But wouldn’t it be better to just bury it rather than dig up the grave again? I really thought so.

If this is the result of digging up a grave.

“don’t cry.”

“Don’t cry.”

Lee Yun-woo spoke stubbornly. As he said, his eyes turned a little red, but tears did not overflow.

The way he glared at me with his wide-open eyes was extremely menacing.

“There’s a reason you always act like you know everything.”

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you.”

“Fine. If I had told you during the war, you would have thought I was having some strange hallucination.”

Lee Yun-woo admitted it cleanly. I didn’t say anything because I thought I might do the same.

I would be suspicious too. I’m sure he must have finally lost his mind because of the war, and I’m sure he secretly looked into the mental hospital.

Lee Yun-woo also knew that, so he just held his head in his hands and didn’t blame him for not saying anything sooner.

If everyone had shared the news that I had regressed, the war might have been relatively easy… but on the contrary, I might have been completely excluded from the fighting force.

“There were plenty of opportunities after the war ended. … Even if you lied during the intelligence investigation, you could have at least tipped off other people.”

“What good will come from bringing up bad stories?”

“What I mean is…! Sigh.”

Lee Yun-woo washed his face with a dry cloth and looked tired.

“… It’s too cruel to take on this kind of thing alone. It would have been better if you had at least said something.”

“… … .”

“If it weren’t for me, there would be the leader of the guild in Yeokcheon. To be honest, if I hadn’t seen it like this, I would have suspected PTSD, so let’s say so. But there are people around you who will completely trust what you say.”

Confiding in someone and feeling relieved… was something I never thought I would do.

Is it because I’m so used to burying it in a corner of my heart and pretending not to know?

“You need to lean on people more.”

Lee Yun-woo said in a firm tone. When he asked back, “Me?”, the only answer he got was, “Yeah, you.”

I was so sure of it that I couldn’t even ask, “Really?” because I thought that if I did, Lee Woon-woo, who was already suppressing his anger, would explode.

‘I know you’re saying this because you’re worried about me.’

I scratched the back of my head for no reason.

‘It feels a bit unfamiliar.’

I think it’s a bit contradictory to worry about me, who can even break rocks with my bare hands.

Anyway, I didn’t feel bad.

I wonder if Lee Woon-woo knows how much it means to me that there is someone who is truly angry for me.

“are you okay.”

I curled the corners of my mouth.

“You already know without me saying anything.”

This quick-witted guy was a pretty decent partner, except that he often noticed things I wanted to keep hidden.

As friends, and as comrades standing back to back.

“… … .”

Lee Yun-woo shut his mouth tightly as if he had been stabbed in the eye. His stupid face was so funny that I almost burst out laughing without realizing it.

But I tried to hold back my laughter now because I was sure Lee Woon-woo would get angry if I laughed out loud.

That was the moment.

Something came into my sight.

‘Why is that here…?’

I reached out and ran my fingertips along the walls of the building. The walls were engraved with various patterns, a common occurrence in this devastated city.

But, it was a little strange.

The pattern engraved here is like a memory, because I saw it every now and then when I passed by.

But the problem is… .

“what are you doing?”

As I was caressing the wall out of the blue, Lee Woon-woo asked me a question. I answered quietly.

“The pattern is different.”

“what?”

“The pattern on this wall. It wasn’t originally like this swirly shape.”

I squinted my eyes and stared at the pattern drawn on the wall.

“What? How can that be? This world is based on your memories.”

“That’s what I mean… .”

Something smelled fishy. The world I created from my memories was different from my memories?

“It’s very strange.”

“Is this some kind of hint? Something about finding the parts you remember?”

As soon as Lee Yun-woo finished speaking, a clear sound rang out.

[Notice: You have detected a memory error!]

[Notice: ‘Mirror of Memory’ suggests a find the difference game.]

[Notice: Memory Error (1/15)]

“under.”

I clicked my tongue briefly.

Look at this. Let’s give this a try, right?

***

‘Spatial interference.’

As I closed my eyes and opened them, everything around me began to register in my mind. A huge amount of information came rushing in at once, making my head spin.

In the past, when I used spatial interference, I would just extract the information I needed from it, but this time, things were a little different.

‘Meticulously from the beginning… This is fine, this is fine too.’

As I checked them one by one, parts that were different from my memories gradually came to light.

“Second tree from the left.”

[Notice: You have detected a memory error!]

[Notice: Memory Error (2/15)]

“The flag of the opposite river. The left and right are reversed.”

[Notice: You have detected a memory error!]

[Notice: Memory Error (3/15)]

“Hongyeon Headquarters, 7th floor, fifth window from the left. There’s always a curtain there.”

“There was no doorknob here.”

“I think that car was blue, not black.”

Ring, ring!

[Notice: Memory Error (14/15)]

The number was reduced in an instant.

Lee Woon-woo, who was watching from the side, whistled.

“That’s fast. I’ll be home soon.”

“It’s strange. I can’t see one thing.”

“Hmm. Isn’t there a last piece in the area that your spatial interference can’t interfere with?”

I nodded, thinking the same thing. Then there aren’t many places left. Lee Woon-woo said, counting on his fingers.

“Each guild’s conference room probably has special equipment installed to prevent wiretapping. It could be a place where S-class items are stored, or a gate strategy research lab… .”

Since each place where security is important has defenses in place to protect against the Hunter’s unique skills, there were more candidates than expected.

“The Gate Strategy Research Institute. I’ve only been to a few places like that, so I don’t think so. Most of the ‘memory errors’ I’ve found so far have come from places I know well.”

“Then the guild conference room would be more likely.”

If you pretend, it’s pretend.

“The closest one is the government building.”

It was the closest guild to the accommodation, so it was a given.

“Are you okay?”

“what.”

“I mean, meeting you from another world.”

It wouldn’t be very pleasant to see the same facial features, cold atmosphere, and slightly more mature face.

“… I feel strange. I wonder if that’s what other people feel when they see me.”

“More than you are now. Lee Woon-woo here… .”

If we lock up the current Lee Woon-woo in a dark room for 10 years, will he end up like the Lee Woon-woo here?

“It’s late today, so let’s go back and visit the office building tomorrow morning. What do you think?”

I nodded obediently to Lee Yun-woo’s suggestion.

***

Late one night, when the moon was shining brightly, I was tending to the note while waiting for an expected guest.

Since it’s an S-class item, it doesn’t need to be maintained as often as a normal gun, but Noite likes my touch.

Clink.

As I was doing that, I heard the door opening.

I greeted the person who came in without even looking at him.

“It’s later than I thought.”

“This is….”

There was a faint laugh in the snake-like voice. The man who came in wearing a blue robe turned inside out smiled softly and pulled his robe back.

“I didn’t know it would be read this far.”

Before his return, Lee Yun-woo looked at me with a familiar smile.

“I know you better than you think.”

“I think so.”

The man took off his outer garment casually, draped it over his arm, and sat across from me. He then glanced me up and down with his snake-like eyes.

It was a look of genuine curiosity.

“Young Han Seo-ha Hunter. I never thought I’d see this again.”

“You’ve seen your younger self before, but now you’re here again. If you’re curious about that, then you must have come to the wrong room.”

“Haha. That’s why I’m curious about you.”

Lee Yun-woo let out a short laugh. The corners of his lips that had been raised slightly were smooth.

“I never dreamed that Hunter Han Seo-ha could make such a joke.”

I didn’t say that the beginning of the regression was the gate.
