Meanwhile, as Kang Ihyun, Jung Sooho, and the Chaos Ruler diligently searched through their unconsciousness, our Divine Light Nari, unintentionally engaging in excessive trolling, had an awakening.
“…Huh.”
She opened her eyes to the sound of the trees swaying in the wind.
The sunlight filtering through the leaves fluttered in the wind, dazzling her eyes.
As she stood up from her spot, a lush blue sky and an equally vibrant blue meadow came into view.
“Where in the world is this?”
Nari, who couldn’t understand the situation, looked around before facing directly ahead.
Only then did Nari realize that there was a status message written in front of her.
[Deep World :: Entered the %$#! Floor.]“Huh?! No, no, no, how many floors is this? No, hey! Chaos Seat!!”
Even after calling out, there was no response, just silence. Cold sweat began to form on Divine Light Nari’s spine.
This was because she recalled the Chaos Seat’s words, saying that if trapped in the deep depths of the Deep World, even they couldn’t rescue themselves.
“Hey… Hey, this can’t be real, hey. Where’s the person who gets trapped and dies in their own unconsciousness, hey.”
The person trapped was her. A figure resembling Divine Light Nari, appearing like she was about to cast “That Person Is Me,” covered her face with her two hands.
As she hesitated on what to do, footsteps that sounded like someone rushing over reached her ears.
“What?! Who is it?!”
Instinctively attempting to draw a half-scissor, her inventory wouldn’t open.
Divine Light Nari, lifting her head abruptly, blinked at the familiar face that appeared before her.
“…Nari?”
“Kang Ihyun?! Hey, hey, this is great. Get me out of here… No, wait, why are you dressed like that?!”
“What? What’s wrong with my clothes?”
Wearing a hat with rabbit ears, Kang Ihyun adorned in a stylish suit with a monocle was looking at herself.
He took out a pocket watch and, with a gasp, opened his mouth wide.
“No, we’re going to be late at this rate! Nari, why did you just come now?! Let’s hurry and leave!”
“No, what’s going on? Hey, wait a minute!”
Kang Ihyun hugged her and started running straight ahead.
Divine Light Nari, who still didn’t understand the situation, finally looked down at her own clothes.
…A black apron dress with a ribbon headband. Only now did she realize the situation.
In front of Nari, a message window popped up with something like an indirect message from her own Seat.
[A quest has been activated!Witness the end of the fairy tale to escape from the Deep World %$#! Floor.]
“…Anyway, he has never followed my instructions.”
It seemed like the damn unconsciousness messed things up, creating a situation similar to ‘Alice in Wonderland.’
“Still, isn’t this situation a bit over the top? How did Alice get out of here?”
“What?”
“No, nothing. Just run for now.”
“Yes!”
If she followed the story of Alice in Wonderland, maybe she could escape from here.
Thinking that way, Divine Light Nari hugged Kang Ihyun’s neck.
After running for a while, Kang Ihyun suddenly stopped with a squeak.
It was a rabbit hole. A seemingly endless black cave extended below, opening its mouth wide toward them.
“That… That’s the rabbit hole…”
Whether it was because of the dream or a genuine sense of fear, Nari reflexively tightened her grip on Kang Ihyun’s arm.
Then, as she lifted her gaze upon feeling something, she met eyes with Kang Ihyun, who smiled affectionately as usual and said,
“It’s okay, Nari.”
“…It’s scary to jump in.”
“It’s always been okay when you’re with me. Right?”
Nari looked at Kang Ihyun once again. Whether it was a product of the unconscious or not, he seemed more trustworthy than usual.
Was she relying on Kang Ihyun even more than she had thought?
As that thought crossed her mind, she blushed with embarrassment and shook her head a couple of times.
“I’ll trust you.”
“I won’t betray you.”
After saying that, Kang Ihyun leaped into the rabbit hole.
Nari closed her eyes tightly, even though the terror of falling had become somewhat familiar after experiencing it several times.
Still, this time, the hands holding her tightly and the warm presence made it less frightening.
Just as she thought they might be reaching the bottom and opened her eyes slightly,
“Ahh!!”
She was thrown out, and it was even a marble floor.
Nari, whose knees were hit directly, endured the pain for a while and crouched down.
“Ugh, seriously. Hey, Kang Ihyun…!!”
He said he wouldn’t betray her! As Nari was about to express her dissatisfaction and raised her head, she blinked her eyes. There was no one around.
She was alone in an extremely tiny room. A narrow space where it felt like the walls were about to touch if she moved just a bit.
The only visible things were a cake on the table and a letter.
“Ah… my knees. Fifty-year-old knees at this age…”
Nari, tapping her waist and knees, approached the table. She casually took out the letter.
The letter read, “Eat me!” Nari sighed at the message and looked at the cake.
