This death didn’t hurt. Or… maybe it didn’t.
Uijae floated in a dark void—a place devoid of anything. He opened his hands and looked at them. Good. If he could see his hands, that meant his vision had returned. His fingers traced over the scar on his palm, where golden chains shimmered faintly.
The contract was still intact. Both he and Lee Sa-young were alive.
“……”
But there was nothing he could do. He couldn’t open his inventory, summon the system window, or move his body freely. All he could do was drift aimlessly through the void. In the end, Uijae had no choice but to confront the thoughts he had been avoiding.
‘It seems staying close to Lee Sa-young saved me from a complete death, but…’
Truthfully, he had believed that dying would return him to his original world. This was the Memorial Dungeon, after all. A place where the memories of the dead came to an end. Yet, here he was, not returning but wandering aimlessly in this strange space.
Who can buy this for me please (I am not in a country where you can use paypal) 😭😭😭😭😭
Mi pobre bebé a sufrido mucho😭
To make this revelation 10 times worse. Not only is our poor Uije remembering he made these choices, but he's having to physically/mentally experience it a second time. This time confident he has someone waiting for him, but he will also have to live with these decisions. And his grey hair, a constant reminder of what he did to live.
I did not realize you were translating this the day the raws get dropped - I'm incredibly grateful for your hard work! This series is so addicting I'm hanging on every chapter!
So… the cause why his hair turned white is because of eating those monsters/humans-turned-monsters… I wonder if it was mentioned somewhere that they did that.
