Transcendence Due To A System Error

< Chapter 51: The Truth (2) >

-Last night at 10 p.m., the world was shocked by the occurrence of a huge fissure in the sky above Seoul.

Friday morning, classroom.

Someone’s smartphone played the news anchor’s voice loudly.

-Experts say that this incident almost wiped out South Korea. But fortunately, the fissure disappeared before it opened.

“…Hehe.”

I ignored the news and desperately avoided Ha Si-yeon’s gaze.

Her gaze was too burdensome.

-Who closed the fissure? We at KBC Broadcasting have a definite answer to this question. Let’s watch the video first.

I couldn’t see the screen, but I knew what it was.

It must be a high-definition video taken by a drone.

It was me in a strange outfit and a theatrical mask.

-Beautiful white wings. The ability to manipulate light. Some experts say that this is the legendary ‘Angel’ race.

To be honest, I didn’t think I would be caught by a drone. It was very reckless of me to think about it now.

Luckily, it seemed that my identity was not revealed, so I was very lucky.

“Is it really an Angel?”

“Of course, it’s real, not fake. Didn’t you hear from the seniors? The magic density of the fissure exceeded one million.”

“…One million?”

“Yeah, dude! Who else can close it before it opens except for an angel-like being from legend?”

The surroundings were full of talk about the fissure yesterday.

“Cool~ Whatever happened, cheers to the angel. My brother was working in the situation room, and he said it was really serious. He thought he was going to die.”

“Isn’t this all thanks to my prayers?”

“Shut up.”

Most of them were praises for the angel.

It was very embarrassing for the person involved. After all, I closed the fissure, but I also opened it, so it was just cleaning up my own mess. It was nothing to be thankful for.

Twinkle twinkle.

By the way, what is Ha Si-yeon thinking of doing until when?

“…Why.”

There was a limit to avoiding her gaze. I finally looked at Ha Si-yeon’s burdensome gaze and asked.

“No, just. I don’t know who it is, but that angel seems so amazing!”

“Oh, really?”

Ha Si-yeon seemed to have a clear conviction that I was the one who dealt with the fissure yesterday.

Well, if I were Ha Si-yeon, I would think so too.

“…You know?”

I urged her to keep the secret with my eyes.

“Huh? Oh. Yeah~ Of course!”

“Then can you stop that burdensome gaze before the others suspect?”

“Ah. Yeah. Sorry. Hehe.”

Ha Si-yeon stuck out her tongue and smiled.

“Then Seo-yul. I’ll go back to my seat. See you later.”

“Yeah.”

Go away quickly.

Let me think alone.

I waved my hand lightly.

That’s when Ha Si-yeon went back to her seat, and I immersed myself in my thoughts with the voices of my classmates as white noise.

“Really yesterday…”

“I’m dying…”

My ability is not an ability in a strict sense, but a bug derived from a system error.

If bugs accumulate, it’s natural that the system detects them.

I was ignoring that obvious thing.

The tattoo itself was a sign that warned me.

Green means safe.

Red means be careful.

Black means stop it.

If I ignored that warning and acquired a trait, then the vaccine program would have worked as yesterday.

By the way, thinking about it now, it’s unfair?

No, I was careful when it said black, right?

But there was no warning about items with trait restrictions.

How do I know that items with trait restrictions don’t stack?

Ah. I want to hit God hyung hard in his temple.

Of course, he gave me a solution so I somehow solved it well.

But if you think about it, it’s worse. It’s like giving me a disease and then a medicine.

Anyway, if I see him, I’ll definitely hit his temple hard.

“Phew.”

But I learned a lot from this incident.

I also know what to watch out for now, so I won’t repeat the same mistake.

It was also an opportunity to remind myself that my ability is a kind of bug.

By the way, what does he want?

He definitely sent me to this world in this novel.

But I don’t know his intention at all.

He just pushed me into this world without any reason.

And there was no news at all.

Suddenly he sent me a strange code and warned me.

And finally, he gave me an anti-vaccine that can handle the vaccine program.

It feels like the details don’t fit together.

If he wanted to torture me, he wouldn’t have helped me like this.

If he had something to ask me, he would have helped me from the beginning.

Why are they mixed?

…I really don’t know.

Anyway, the situation hasn’t changed much.

The situation is still unclear, and there is no clear solution.

Whether I know it or not, I just have to get stronger.

I have to get stronger if I don’t want to die.

I’ll see something when I see the ending of this world.

…And the stronger I get, the harder I can hit his temple later.

I’ll really pierce his temple.

Just watch.

Crunch.

I made up my mind again.

“Hi, Jia.”

“Hi. Good morning.”

Jia came into the classroom then.

She greeted some friends and came to me with a trot.

“Hi, Seo-yul.”

Jia greeted me with a very bright smile.

“Hi.”

I greeted Jia and recalled what happened last night with her.

Jia saw me spreading my Heavenly Wings and shouted that I was a half-elf.

She said she had a rough idea when she saw the translucent flame I used.

I was stunned for a moment by what she said.

But I quickly decided to take advantage of that misunderstanding.

I don’t know much, but anyway, it seemed better than telling her that I don’t have a system (status window).

I told her to talk more tomorrow, so I should do some research on half-elves before then.

Maybe there’s some information in the library of the campus.

* * *

That night.

I was on the phone with Yu Hwa. It was a video call.

“Did you like it?”

The camera was focused on my left hand. The ring with [Magic Response Trait Holder Restriction] that Yu Hwa gave me as a gift.

It was my hand-wearing [Mana’s Grace].

Yu Hwa asked me why I lied that I had [Magic Response] when I didn’t, and I was making an excuse that I had [Magic Response].

-…Really. Then why did the rejection reaction occur back then?

“I don’t know either.”

-Hmm. Maybe it was some strange resonance phenomenon caused by the magic of the fissure?

“That could be possible.”

The reason why the rejection reaction appeared from [Mana’s Grace] that day was simply because it collided with [Weapon’s Extreme].

It means that there was no problem wearing [Mana’s Grace] after taking off [Weapon’s Extreme].

-Well, it seems like you didn’t lie.

“Of course. Why would I lie about having a trait that I don’t have?”

I brought the camera to my face.

-That’s true. You wouldn’t be able to deny it anyway.

I saw Yu Hwa on the other side of the screen.

She was wearing a pretty cute pajama.

She was holding the phone with one hand, and playing with Goldie with the other hand.

“Anyway, thank you. I’ll use it well.”

-Don’t mention it.

[Weapon’s Extreme] is too overpowered, so I don’t think I’ll use [Mana’s Grace] much.

But anyway, more is better.

-Oh, by the way, this is just a question out of curiosity.

Yu Hwa’s eyes became timid.

She looked like she was suspicious of something.

-That angel. It’s not you, right?

It was a question I expected.

“No, why?”

-Really?

“Really.”

-Then it’s just a coincidence that the angel’s magic appeared near the dormitory?

“That’s a really amazing coincidence.”

I put up a wall.

I knew this question would come, so I prepared in advance.

My facial expression acting was perfect!

-Well. That makes sense. I remember your expression yesterday. It said ‘I’m in shock!’. If you were the angel who closed the fissure, you wouldn’t have been so flustered, right?

“Cough.”

It was a very logical reasoning.

I did panic a lot yesterday.

-But really, the situation is going weird these days.

“What do you mean?”

Yu Hwa stroked Goldie’s head and casually said.

-Due to things that can’t be explained are happening one after another. The demon’s advent incident. The blooming phenomenon. The appearance of the unprecedented fissure. And the Angel scandal.

“….”

Except for the devil’s advent, they were all things I did.

-What if something big happens because of this?

She has good intuition.

There are actually two earth-shattering events waiting for me.

“Hey. What could be bigger than this fissure?”

I can’t tell anyone yet, but

-Yeah, I guess so.

Yu Hwa smiled awkwardly.

“You should go to sleep before it gets too late. You must be tired from staying up all night until now.”

I could see the fatigue on Yu Hwa’s face across the screen.

-Yeah. It’s getting hard to bear.

Yu Hwa yawned softly.

-Then good night. Goldie-ya. You too, good night~ okay?

-Meow.

Goldie nodded his head to the camera.

“Yeah. You sleep well, Goldie. And you too, Yu Hwa.”

-Yes.

The call ended with that word.

“Ugh~”

I threw my phone to the corner of the bed and lay down as it was.

I thought of Yu Hwa’s words as I lay down.

Devil’s advent, blooming phenomenon, fissure appearance, Angel scandal.

These four things did not happen in the original work.

They are irregular events caused by me, an outsider.

Wouldn’t there be some repercussions from these four things?

I fell asleep thinking about those things.

* * *

Saturday lunch.

I invited Jia to my room and had a conversation with her.

Swoosh-

“Wow.”

Jia exclaimed as I spread my wings.

“Jia, you were right. I’m a hybrid of Angel and elf.”

I was good at lying.

I didn’t feel any guilt anymore.

“Sorry for hiding it. Are you disappointed?”

I looked up some records about half-elves in the library this morning.

I couldn’t find any records about the hybrids of Angel and Elf, but

there were quite a lot of records about the hybrids of humans and elves.

Should I say it’s a cliché of fantasy novels?

Half-elves were heretical beings that were shunned by both humans and elves.

Jia must be secretly disappointed that I’m not a pure-blooded elf.

“No, no! Disappointed? How can you say that?”

“…Huh?”

But I couldn’t find any trace of disappointment on Jia’s face.

She looked more excited than usual.

“Of course, half-elves are shunned beings, but if you think about it, our family is also a direct descendant of half-elves. How can I be disappointed?”

“Oh.”

Jia’s tone was more polite than usual.

“Besides, you’re not just an ordinary half-elf, but a miraculous being born between Angel and elf….”

Stars shone in her eyes.

It was the most burdensome gaze I’ve ever received.

No, a miraculous being?

“You’re the descendant of the first great hero Reine Linefield! Disappointed? That’s ridiculous.”

The first great hero Reine··· what?

“I’ll greet you again. Ancestor. No.”

Jia knelt down with enthusiasm and bowed to me.

“Progenitor.”

“?”

Something upgraded in her way of addressing.
