Chapter 119: Room 107 – The Gate Room, The Third Trial (10)

– Han Kain

It seems like I’ll get a headache.

So many complicated issues occurred in simply sooner or later.

The experiences preventing Arima inside Jinchul-hyung’s thoughts, and the Recommendation given in a very completely different manner than typical.

As I held my head and lowered it, Ahri tapped my shoulder.

“What are you pondering a lot about? The remaining time is not very lengthy you understand?”

…Come to think about it, there is no want for me to fret alone.

Is not this the advantage of having comrades?

I instantly shared my issues.

Although some, like Songee and Seungyub, regarded blankly on the ceiling, Eunsol-noona and Ahri quickly began severely considering what I had mentioned.

Ahri answered first.

“To sum up what occurred within the psychological world, the data contained within the Grimoire has already taken root inside you, however it’s taking time to digest. Nonetheless, the deeper you settle for the Grimoire’s data, the extra you concern that it’ll make you deviate from humanity. Proper?”

“That’s the gist”

“In the end, the selection is as much as you to make. However there’s one factor I wish to let you know.”

“What’s it?”

“Who’s the creator of the Grimoire? The unborn god, proper? Take into consideration what sort of being that god is.”

The creator of the Grimoire.

The One Who Couldn’t Be Born.

“To be sincere, is not he only a shut-in pervert?”

The reply was utterly surprising.

“What?”

“Is not it true? From the second his consciousness woke up, he could not go away his mom’s womb. When he barely began speaking with mortals, all he might do was torment them out of jealousy. ‘The One Who Couldn’t Be Born!’, ‘The Firstborn of The Nebula Dragon!’ He embellished himself with such grand titles, however in actuality, he was only a shut-in who spent his life envying the surface world. He tried to imitate Buddhist ideas in creating the Grimoire, however it’s nonetheless only a gloomy philosophy. Do you actually need to get too deeply into the ideas of such a being?”

“…However, if I do not settle for that understanding—”

“Are you fearful that you just will not have the ability to use the Grimoire correctly for those who do not? It is only a device. Who’s to say it’s important to settle for its inside philosophy to make use of it? In the end, it is your selection, however keep in mind this: you do not have to blindly observe beings simply because they’re referred to as gods or demons.”

I felt a way of readability in my thoughts.

Is that this the attitude that comes from amassed expertise within the “Administration Bureau”?

“Did that assist?”

“I feel I get it, however I additionally really feel extra confused.”

Eunsol-noona, who had been listening, intervened.

“It is a reduction Ahri helped with the Grimoire discuss. I’ve nothing to say on that entrance. However I’ve realized two peculiarities concerning the Recommendation. First, in contrast to typical Recommendation, it consumed all three makes use of directly. Second, it was given ‘now’ of all instances.”

“I’ve a imprecise thought about why all three makes use of had been consumed directly. Normally, Recommendation is split into automated disaster alerts when my life is at risk and solutions to questions I ask. This recommendation did not match both class. It wasn’t a disaster, and I did not ask a query. It looks as if a penalty for a rule violation. It is absurd since I did not break the principles, although.”

“I feel equally. The Owl will need to have incurred a penalty by forcing itself to present ‘impractical recommendation’. That makes the second level essential. Why did it give Recommendation ‘now’, exhausting all use directly? That should be thought-about in decoding the recommendation.”

Listening to Noona’s phrases sparked a thought.

“The recommendation’s which means is not about getting ready for a distant future, is it?”

“I do not assume so. The Owl is not silly sufficient to present future recommendation whereas we’re in the midst of the Gate Room. This recommendation should be carefully associated to the Gate Room.”

Ahri chimed in.

“It appears smart to not be too hung up on this. Whereas I agree it seemingly pertains to the Gate Room, we will not rule out different interpretations. The Owl tends to make each phrase have complicated interpretations.”

The Recommendation may be multi-layered in which means.

I understood that too.

Let’s ponder the which means of the recommendation.

Keep in mind that realization. It’s the downside you should overcome within the Lodge.

“The belief refers to one thing concerning the Grimoire, proper?”

“Most definitely? So finally, it’s important to interpret this recommendation your self. We do not know what realization you had concerning the Grimoire.”

What realization did I achieve?

“…”

“Please, don’t go elevating any flags! Have not you heard that within the ER, you by no means say, ‘It’s a quiet day’? Saying one thing like, ‘we’ll move with ease’ in a spot like this Lodge is simply asking for hassle!”

“What sort of superstition—”

“Ahri, shut up. This time, I agree with Kain. After listening to your phrases, I really feel just like the Lodge is getting ready a really terrible trial!”

Whereas Ahri pouted barely, the remainder time ended.

Amid an inexplicable sense of foreboding, the Third Trial started.

Person: Han Kain (Knowledge)

Date: Day 44

Present Location: Ground 1, Room 107 (Gate Room)

Sage’s Recommendation: 0

– Han Kain

When the lights got here on, we discovered ourselves seated round a spherical desk in a tidy workplace.

A mysterious orb descended from the middle.

Greetings!

Any more, you’ll take part within the Jekyll and Hyde Sport.

Please name me the Moderator. From this level onward, your Blessings will likely be sealed.

With these phrases, the Standing Window disappeared.

Jekyll and Hyde Sport?

As I contemplated the which means, a notification appeared within the air.

There are three roles within the Jekyll and Hyde Sport: Jekyll, Hyde, and Physician.

All of you’re Jekyll. Jekylls can focus on and execute somebody amongst you who hosts Hyde every spherical in the course of the day. If Jekylls appropriately identifies and executes Hyde, the sport is gained.

Hyde will possess somebody amongst you firstly of every spherical. Hyde will try to kill one in every of you every spherical at night time. Hyde can solely possess every individual as soon as and can’t be discovered with an Inheritance.

The Physician can designate somebody to guard every spherical in the course of the day. If Hyde tries to kill the designated individual at night time, the kill will fail.

If the sport is gained, one of many deceased contributors will be resurrected. In case you have questions concerning the sport, please ask.

The sport will begin in half-hour.

This appears acquainted.

Songee reacted.

“This appears to be like rather a lot like Mafia, doesn’t it?”

“Jekyll is just like the civilians, and Hyde is just like the Mafia? The distinctive half is that Hyde hosts amongst us.”

Grandpa Mooksung shouted in shock.

“Hey, hey! Don’t discuss issues solely you understand. What’s this ‘Mafia’?”

Eunsol-noona was additionally significantly stunned.

“I do know the Mafia sport, however is not it only a political sport for enjoyable? How are we supposed to seek out Hyde? And ‘can’t be discovered with an Inheritance’? Our Blessings are sealed, and we will not discover Hyde with Inheritance. This implies we’re alleged to guess blindly?”

Our greatest guesser, Seungyub, had his luck sealed.

What are we alleged to do?

Everybody was confused.

Let’s keep calm.

“Everybody, settle down. The resort wouldn’t make us play a meaningless guessing sport.”

“What do you imply?”

“There should be some logic to this. The crux of this sport is who Hyde will possess, and who Hyde will kill. If we work out who hosts Hyde, we will discover and execute Hyde. If we work out who they are going to kill, the Physician can shield the goal. The logic behind selecting hosts and kills should exist. It gained’t be random.”

I mentioned this, however I used to be additionally confused.

What standards will Hyde use to decide on hosts and targets?

It felt ominous.

I had a intestine feeling that we might make vital sacrifices on this /genesisforsaken
