I Obtained a Mythic Item

Chapter 67

Episode 67 Flanders Mansion (4)

Alfred’s body is there.

No, it’s just captured on the screen in the camera. anyway.

Jaehyun quickly took his eyes off the screen, leaving Seo Ah-hyun in shock behind.

Then I looked around again with my naked eyes. However, nothing was different from before.

A white tablecloth with delicious food and a chandelier shining above it.

How the hell did this happen?

Jaehyun swallowed hard. The neck creases slightly.

he said in a low voice.

“...Alfred, who guided us a moment ago, seems to be a fake.”

“Is it fake?”

“okay. Otherwise, what the hell is the reason for locking us up in the restaurant?”

“......but. It makes sense.”

Seo Ah-hyun nodded in agreement with Jae-hyun.

The current situation was not as good as I thought.

While he was thinking about it, the familiar sound of the system suddenly penetrated Jaehyun’s ears.

―You have reached 70% of the first secret of the mansion, ‘Alfred’s Secret’.

Jaehyun widened his eyes.

The mansion’s secret?

Reach 70 percent?

Does that mean the mansion hides some other secrets?

‘And what the heck is the 70 percent uncomfortable?’

Silence flows for a while. Jaehyun was after organizing his thoughts.

“Somehow this camera seems to be showing us something we can’t see.”

“...That means that perhaps this camera shows the future?

Otherwise, the butler who just showed us around couldn’t be dead like this. Butler Alfred is possessed by something.”

“It’s too early to make a decision. The first step is to analyze the current situation.”

When Jae-hyun spoke, Seo Ah-hyun immediately understood his words and used his skill.

Acceleration of Acceleration.

With the activation of the skill, Seo Ah-hyun’s body stiffened for a few seconds.

After a while.

The answer that came back was completely different from what Jaehyun expected.

Seo Ah-hyun bit her lip.

“Anyway, what is captured in this camera seems to be the past, not the future.”

“past?”

“that’s right. What we see with the camera now is a kind of past. That is, it is a recorded video.”

“Explain in detail.”

“First of all, I think there must be a reason why they gave us a camera in this ‘Haunted House’.

Whatever it is, it’s likely to be the key to clearing the dungeon. In fact, there is a gap between the video and the reality.”

“What next?”

“Your brother did that. Alfred, who guided us a moment ago, is a fake.

That makes sense that the fake is killing the real Alfred and impersonating him.”

surely. If you think so, everything fits.

The theme of this dungeon is ‘horror’.

Fear is an emotion that affects human thinking based on a cognitive gap.

As Seo Ah-hyun said. This means that the contents contained in this camera reflect the truth of the past and that the reality seen with the naked eye is nothing more than a well-made illusion modeled after the past.

Jaehyun thought for a moment.

Soon, a mind-altering spell passed through his mind.

“...It’s an illusion.”

《Illusion》.

It was a magic that caused hallucinations in the opponent and made them believe that it was reality.

What if the two were enchanted when they entered the mansion?

Then everything makes sense.

As if this warm, delicious-looking food had now become Alfred’s corpse.

Jaehyun immediately deployed his magic to activate «Absolute Calculation».

If you can break the magic, you can break all these illusions.

however.

―This magic is not allowed here.

His brows twisted in an instant, and his fists were clenched with strength.

‘ ‘Absolute arithmetic’ doesn’t work?’

at that time. The voice he heard at the beginning of the dungeon came to Jaehyun’s mind.

―Some skills are restricted.

Jaehyun bit his lip.

To him, «absolute arithmetic», which can inversely calculate all magic, is the key.

The only flaw is that it consumes a little too much mana, but it has more merits than that.

‘Damn it.......’

I was annoyed, but I decided to turn my thoughts around.

Alfred’s two black eyes could not fathom their depth. I had no idea exactly what kind of feelings he was carrying.

Should I ask him now why he locked the restaurant?

‘no. that’s poison Maybe there will be a problem later. It’s better to ignore it now and move on.’

After making that decision, Jaehyun looked at Seo Ahhyun’s face.

It was a spectacle to see him trembling with a death wound.

“Then you must be tired, but I will take you to the guest room. Please follow me.”

“Dog rooms!?”

Seo Ah-hyun raised her voice in front of Alfred for the first time.

Well, I did just that.

Everyone would be like that if they thought they had to spend a day in a gloomy mansion like this.

But now is not the time to panic. Their purpose is to uncover the secrets of the mansion.

In order to do that, you need to proceed with the event and observe the situation appropriately.

“Thank you for your kindness. Then let’s go.”

“Oh brother!”

Jaehyun whispered in Seo Ah Hyun’s urgent voice.

“Follow me for now. You don’t have to clear the dungeon. Or are you going to be stuck here for the rest of your life?”

“I don’t like that, but.......”

Seo Ah-hyun, who was soon persuaded by Jae-hyun, started walking with a grunt.

The corridor exudes a gloomy and grotesque atmosphere, just like the first one.

Every time I passed by, the portraits hanging on the walls were all the same.

one girl. And a dog she’s snuggling, whether it’s Sean or something.

* * *

The guest room was located in a corner room on the second floor of the mansion.

Jae-hyun and Seo Ah-hyun were guided by Alfred and each received the key to the last room.

I can’t confirm the time, but it must be already late.

It is because the scenery seen through the window is distorted and it is so dark.

“Then rest in peace, both of you. I will come back tomorrow.”

“Um... By the way, when can I see Count Flanders?”

“Master has gone on a long journey and will be back tomorrow after breakfast.”

After saying that, Alfred walked away.

Seo Ah-hyun held onto Jae-hyun’s arm and did not let go.

As if something terrible would happen if you let your guard down for even a second.

Jaehyun took off his arm and looked around with a calm expression.

He said.

“First, let’s go into each room and see if there is anything strange.”

“......Can’t I just stay in the same room as you?”

“What nonsense are you talking about as a cameraman? And do you think I’ll let you do that in a situation where there might be clues in your room that aren’t in mine?”

“...that’s right.”

Seo Ah-hyun quickly understood Jae-hyun’s words.

Even though it was a short time, it was because I realized that he never gave up his interests while hanging out with him.

“See you tomorrow. There’s probably nothing going on in it.”

“I hope so.”

It was a strangely gruff tone, but Jaehyun didn’t care.

“It’s obvious, but don’t even think about sleeping inside. This is inside the dungeon.”

“I know! And I’m scarier than my brother?!”

“They said it wasn’t scary when I first came in. Oh right. This is a magic potion. I’ll take care of it in advance, so take it and put it in your inventory.”

“Yeah...... I do it like that for now. Can you really break out of here?”

“I can wake you up, so shut up now.”

After saying that, Jaehyun savagely pushed himself into the room he was assigned to.

The room was much more luxurious than expected with a comfortable bed.

But this is all an illusion.

While walking down the hallway a little while ago, Seo Ah-hyun’s camera continued to take pictures.

Using «Stealth», while remaining invisible to Alfred.

And the scenery was truly terrifying.

Here and there, toys for children to play with were scattered, and the curtains were already torn and stained with blood.

A sight that is difficult to capture.

Jaehyun put a light layer of mana on his body beforehand in case of an emergency.

Because he knew very well that the enemy could attack him at any time.

“I need to find out what secrets are hidden in this room.”

While thinking that, the moment Jaehyun tried to move his body.

―The user’s body enters a forced sleep state.

―From now on, we will go to the 《Cutscene》.

“......what?!”

Jaehyun collapsed onto the bed before he could say anything more.

After a while, the shadow of a stranger cast over his body.

Alfred.

He stretched out his hand to the sleeping Jaehyun, laughing with his gums exposed.
