Chapter 390
After gathering all the party members except for Ichika and Shin Se-hee, I explained the Illusion Barrier Trial.
Everyone’s faces hardened.
“We have to fight our past opponents… alone?”
Gulp—
“T-then… does that mean I have to take down the Spider Queen all by myself…?”
Ga-eul and Sophia, the team’s supporter and healer, looked completely distraught.
“Yeah. For damage dealers like me, Kang Do-hee, Alice, and Master, our difficulty will be tripled. The monsters we fought before will appear at three times the quantity.”
Kang Do-hee actually smirked like she was excited.
Alice and Master, on the other hand, nodded seriously with a grave expression.
“As for tanks and special roles—Lee Yuri and Ichika will have double the amount. Ga-eul and Sophia will face the same number of enemies as before.”
“…Can I even do it?”
Ga-eul’s voice wavered with uncertainty.
“I’m not saying I don’t want to do it. It’s just… a matter of whether it’s even possible…”
I understood their reactions perfectly.
The monsters we had struggled to defeat together… they now had to fight alone.
It must have seemed impossible.
“Don’t worry, Senpai.”
“…Huh?”
“In the trial, even if you die, you’ll just start over.”
“…Die and start over?”
“Yeah. And time will flow much slower inside the barrier.”
That was thanks to Ichika’s ability.
In other words, this trial was basically a Hyperbolic Time Chamber—a place where they could attempt an unlimited number of retries.
‘And the fact that Ichika had already seen all of their memories helped a lot.’
Normally, setting up a trial like this would have required a massive amount of effort.
But Ichika, who had been making a documentary film using our party members’ memories, still remembered them vividly.
That made constructing the illusion much easier.
I could still picture Rina’s incredulous expression when she realized this.
— “…This girl is a monster, too. Honestly, is there even a single normal person in your party?”
What do you think?
