Chapter 104.1

(EP-104.1) Eyes #5

104 – Piercing Eyes #5

I remember the time I became independent after turning 20.

If someone asked me what was the best thing about being independent and having a space of your own, my answer would be that you could use your own, exclusive computer.

There were only a few computers in the orphanage, so we had to share them with several others.

━Hey now, it’s my turn.

━Oppa used it for four hours yesterday too! And can’t you see that I’m studying right now!

━Is watching YouTube studying?

━Hey! Oppa-, he’s bullying me!

So I played a lot of games that I had never been able to play before enlisting in the military. I did it as sort of a reward for myself.

Naturally, I was aware of game mechanics. And from my experience, the devices and functions placed in the game had reasons on why they were there.

Let’s take a horror game for example.

If a horror game had a ‘run’ button or a ‘hide’ button, there would be situations in which you had to run or hide.

There was a reason why a rest area or neutral zones existed in RPG games. After all, a strong argument on why you were given the chance to rest and reorganize existed.

Just like in front of the boss room.

Which was exactly this resting area...

And I just opened the Stage 3 boss room...

Perhaps because of shock and confusion, but Mirna was acting like a chick thrown in cold water.

“What is happening? This is the first time I’ve seen this happen! Theo Gospel, what the hell did you touch...!?”

Mirna was nearly going crazy about the existence of this strange corridor.

Frankly, there was nothing wrong with her reaction. After all, a variable suddenly appeared out of nowhere in a space they had been handling for the past 30 years.

“Is there such a space? Theo Gospel, answer me! You are one of the commoners, yet you are ignoring me now?”

“Um.”

Mirna exclaimed in excitement, which broke my concentration.

“It’s too early to be happy. We don’t know what’s inside yet.”

“Then let’s go in!”

Mirna was more courageous than expected. She must be pumped about elevating the prestige of the Draco Family.

“Take the lead, commoner.”

Normally, I would take a step back and return once I’d made all the necessary preparations. I wanted to avoid rushing into the boss room without knowing a hint of information.

However, after several battles, I achieved Rank 4 Mage and my body was at its peak.

Furthermore, Mirna was here, and she was a powerful Witch. Thus, this would be the best time to enter the boss room.

I didn’t want to miss out on this lucky fortune and momentum, so I decided to move forward.

“Then, I’ll go in first.”

I tightened my grip around the tail wand and slowly entered the narrow, dark corridor.

The torches lined up on both sides created a harsh lighting.

“The corridor ends here. Careful.”

As soon as we entered the room at the end of the corridor, the door slammed shut.

I tried to open it, yet the thing didn’t budge. We probably had to meet certain conditions in order to unlock it again.

Left with no choice, I looked around the room.

It was about the size of a tennis court, with thick pillars extending from all sides to the ceiling that looked majestic.

However, the most impressive thing about this room was the podium in the center, where a box was placed.

The gold-encrusted box on the red-painted wood looked very luxurious and splendid.

I wonder what was inside such a grand box.

However, I couldn’t just approach and grab it. After all, there was a strange ‘thing’ floating on top.

━Uuung, uuuung.
