Chapter 43 That Means Love (4) The self-quarantine period Dahyun had decided on for herself was fourteen days. She explained that the longest incubation period of the virus was about fourteen days, so everyone did it that way. Jua-iye had never experienced anything like this before, so she could not really understand it, but she tried to follow Dahyun's wishes as much as possible. There were times when she suspected that Dahyun had lied just so she could lock herself in her room and do nothing.…-

Chapter 42 That Means Love (3) A wooden house without a boiler or electric heating pad. It had originally been built as a warehouse to temporarily store grain that was going to be milled, and even when it was remodeled and additional floors were added, nothing but wooden boards and bricks were used. There was a three-legged brass brazier, but whenever it was lit, it produced smoke, so the windows had to be opened. Then, as if it had been waiting for that moment, the winter air rushed…

Chapter 21 “Princess.” “……Yes.” “You really are making me into a shameless person.” Karion said with a bitter smile. “I am the one who should be begging for your help. Not you, Princess.” Then he hardened his expression again, lifted his chin slightly, and said coldly, “To be honest, I do not know if I can trust you, Princess, but I will accept your help.” Lea let out a hollow laugh. His arrogant attitude, as if he were doing her a favor, suited his handsome…

Chapter 40 Judging from what Green said, I think that from the moment I become involved in some event, Green can probably only see the “fixed future” that follows from my choices. The reason she was able to see such specific and detailed futures related to Railey was mostly because they happened in places where Railey and I were not together. If I had gone alone toward the Gate Green was heading to now, it meant that my death had been more or less decided. It was probably because, amid…-

Chapter 37 “What do you mean, ‘it might be’? You really are going to kill the kid, you crazy bastard.” While I was bowing my head and offering a sincere apology to the Green from a future that never came because he had not come to find me, Green seemed to roughly guess what I was thinking. He clicked his tongue and corrected me. “Judging by that guy’s personality, it really is possible that he died, but it might not be the case. Like I said, there are limits to seeing the…

Chapter 36 “Fuck, seriously….” “If we make a fuss trying to save those people, the children and women will die first. So I came to the conclusion that it’s more reasonable to throw the people who are ‘useless to the world’ to the monsters first. And I consider my father the highest priority among them.” “No….” “In a way, I’m doing the exact same thing as those people. But at least I’ve gained the power to make that kind of choice—to identify the ones who are…

Chapter 35 “Damn, weren't you expecting way too much from me? Not everyone can make use of precognition as well as you do.” Well, that was partly because I wasn't actually a real precognitive, but even if I were a genuine precog, I thought there would still be some individual differences in how efficiently people could use the ability. “…Then forget it. To put it simply, just as you said, part of the Second Gate has appeared around here, and if you and Black hadn't come looking for me, I was…

Chapter 34 “Whether that was a tension-free deep sleep or the manifestation of your ability, either way, try to get your head back together now. Maybe you were affected because you have a similar ability, or maybe you were just frightened because of this guy I suddenly summoned... Anyway, since I seemed to be the one who knocked you out, I stayed and waited for you to wake up.” Green, who seemed to have been sitting beside me while I was unconscious, stood up, brushing off his backside,…

Chapter 33 My entire body was surrounded by something like jelly, swaying and shaking. What a strange texture. Huh? What was I doing just now? The moment that thought crossed my mind, I realized what had happened right before this. What the hell? Now is not the time to be unconscious! Just as I opened my eyes wide and tried to sit up, someone's foot urgently passed right beside my head as they walked past me. I was startled and rolled my body to the side. No, perhaps it…

Chapter 32 What, exactly, was Green's original ability? I hadn't thought about it very deeply. But yes, damn it, I had been stupid. Green's combat ability was limited to summoning creatures, but his main ability was not actually related to combat. He could see a certain amount of the future. I hadn't fully worked out the exact accuracy, usefulness, or level of detail of that ability, but judging from how it was roughly described, he could probably at least guess what kind of future…
