Chapter 52 Part 1: Lettahjia
「Seo-Ha What are you doing?」
「Were you distracted?」
The illusion becomes even more powerful. With the sound of voices, the two people who were just silhouettes earlier became real and alive.
I could feel Hye-won stroking my cheek with a worried look on her face. Even though I knew it was fake, I still felt dazed.
No. I’m just dazed because of the chemical injection from the fireflies.
「You liked Yeon-won’s fried rice, didn’t you?」
The two of them had a long conversation, and before I knew it, there was already fried rice in front of me.
I picked up a spoon with some trepidation.
The fried rice was golden brown and was steaming. It had a delicious fried aroma. I scooped up a spoonful of it and put it inside my mouth, and it tasted just like I remembered it would.
「How does it taste?」
“Delicious.”
I answered the illusory figure of Hyewon without realizing it, and I was startled. I immediately came to my senses like I had been doused with cold water.
However, my mind was already trapped in an illusion, and Hye-Won and Yeon-Won were looking at me worriedly.
They stopped eating and looked at me as if I was acting really strange.
「Seo-ha?」
“This is all an illusion.”
「Seo-ha, what’s wrong?」
“So they are all fake too.”
I tried to grab Noir to point it towards her, but it was in vain.
Noir wasn’t there.
It was always in my waistband!
‘Were all of them taken away?’
A chill immediately ran down my spine.
There was no Karambit, no Noir.
All my weapons were taken away.
Hye-won put her hand on my forehead and tried to take my fever, but I shook it off.
I tried to tell her not to touch me.
It’s foolish to mix words with illusions.
‘Calm down, this is all fake. This is not real.’
‘So Noir is not gone. You just think it’s gone.’
I pretended to pull Noir out of my waistband like I usually do.
I felt nothing, like I was grasping at air.
‘But I know it’s there.’
It only felt like it wasn’t there.
‘Respond to me.’
I called it out in my mind. Noir is a weapon with an ‘Ego’. It responds to my will, and resonates with my soul.
‘I have not fallen yet.’
‘So, you are not broken either.’
“Noir!”
I reached into the air and squeezed the trigger, and with the sound of a gunshot, the false illusion suddenly vanished.
Crack! Bang!
“Haa….”
A single bullet fired into the sky became a hail of bullets that cut through the empty space and ended up flying away.
It was quite a sight to behold.
It rained down in a shower of reddish color, like a lone firework in an otherwise black space.
The bullets smashed into the dream fireflies around me.
A few grazed my skin and cut me, but it didn’t make much difference since the fireflies were already a mess.
They slithered away one by one, and then the rain of bullets stopped.

Gasp, Gasp.
As I tried my best to catch my breath, good news immediately popped up in front of me.
‘Fiery Rain.’
It was a special bullet that had been with me before I regressed.
It was a special effect that compensated for my weakness as a gun and dagger wielder, as many of my enemies were able to counter me.
The bodies of the dream fireflies that lost their light were scattered all around me. I had no trouble scanning the floor.
There were plenty of people nearby who had fallen to the ground after being trapped in the illusion by the monster.
I looked down at them for a moment, they were all lying there as if they were simply sleeping.
‘Should I try to take those dream fireflies off them?’
I tried to take one off a person, but the man didn’t respond.
He showed no signs of waking up at all.
My already exhausted body, coupled with my injuries and mental fatigue, made me feel like I was going to pass out at any moment.
If I lay there and sigh like this, I would be able to catch my breath, but if I procrastinate even more, these damn dream fireflies would try to pounce on me like hyenas again. So I had to move.
‘But where?’
That’s when I saw a vague mark on the floor.
In the midst of this empty darkness, I could see a dim mark. There was also a faint hazy glow surrounding it. As if it was trying to guide me to follow it.
‘A trap?’
It seemed to be trying to lure me in so obviously.
I don’t like it when things go the way someone intends them to, but there is no reason to do anything else right now.
It would be wiser to follow the most obvious clues in front of you.
I staggered along, exhausted, with my body aching.
My vision was blurry and I had no sense of time.
Only the fallen people scattered like decorations in my way reminded me that I was following a path. I don’t know how long I’ve been walking, and I don’t even want to walk anymore…
But something finally appears in front of me.
‘… A Black house.’
It literally looks exactly like its name.
The walls, the roof, the door, and the entire house were black.
