Chapter 1246 – Muan Deul Gaideon 6. The Condition of the Kaleidoscope.
‘…This…Isn’t this modern?’
Seonwoo put on a puzzled expression.
A giant gargoyle made of steel
Imoogi made of steel
The horseless carriages that filled the boulevards drove the cars
The description of buildings that are several times taller than the city walls reminds me of apartments or buildings.
The women who showed off their ankles, stomachs, and shoulders were reminiscent of modern women who have become open-minded.
The world outside the heavens, seen through a kaleidoscope, is a modern figure in name and reality.
How can I not feel embarrassed?
‘…Isn’t it just an imagination?’
But he soon shook his head.
The description is too vivid and detailed to be called imagination.
It’s like a person who has faced modern times directly.
‘…Then…Really really…?’
Thump thump thump
My heart started pounding.
Hyundai
The one and only home with parents and friends.
I think I’ve found a clue to go back there
Excitement began to rise.
“Yorang.”
Seonwoo, who had been silent for a while, opened his mouth slowly.
“Yes, good sir.”
Yo-rang stared at Seon-woo with expectant eyes and continued her words.
“Let’s try this.”
Seonwoo’s excited eyes began to twinkle.
“Really? Really?”
Yo-rang asked with an expression of disbelief on her face.
It was because it was completely unexpected that I would be interested in it all at once.
“Really.”
Seonwoo nodded his head and opened his mouth.
“You’re not saying something else later, are you?”
“Don’t say anything else.”
“Yaho~!”
Yorang sang joy.
She was the one who had prepared for her Joe time and time again.
No matter how effective
It was so absurd that she felt that she couldn’t give her faith at once.
However, as if such a prediction was unfounded, acceptance fell at once.
How could you not be happy
“There are conditions instead.”
At that time, Seonwoo looked at Yorang, who was overjoyed, and spat out a word.
“…Condition?”
For a moment, Yorang asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
What are the special conditions?
“I’ll have to verify first. I wonder if the extraterrestrial described by the author is real.”
“…How do you verify that?”
Yo-rang asked with a puzzled look on his face.
How can she confirm its existence without going overboard?
“Of course, I have to use the same method as the author of this book.”
Seonwoo opened his mouth in a calm tone.
“If it’s the same way as the author… Can’t it?”
“Yes, I make a kaleidoscope.”
Sunwoo shook his head and continued.
Is it a fiction created by imagination?
Or have you actually witnessed the modern times?
I couldn’t tell.
So verification was needed.
Whether the outer world described by the author is real
It is through the kaleidoscope.
“…Did you mention how to make a kaleidoscope there?”
Yorang tilted his head and asked.
I’ve read the book over and over again
In the book, only the way to go beyond the heavens was written.
There was no mention of how to make a kaleidoscope that peers into the universe.
“None.”
Sunwoo shook his head left and right.
There is only mention of looking through a kaleidoscope.
There was no written instructions on how to make it.
“Then how do you make it? I don’t know how to make it.”
“It’s okay, I know someone worth knowing.”
Sunwoo put a smile on his lips.
“Somebody who knows?”
Yorang opened his mouth as if he didn’t know.
“I looked it up and the author seemed to be related to Taoism.”
The book was written in a style with pedantic expressions and a strong Taoist color.
Although not directly mentioned, he must have been somewhat related to Taoism.
“And we know one who’s mastered Taoism.”
A deep smile began to form on Sunwoo’s lips.
“Unspeak!”
At those words, Yo-rang raised her voice with a bright expression on her face.
Because I could understand.
What is the identity of the person Sunwoo said was someone he should know?
Clouds
A former master who was called Kunlun Swordsman
One of the Taoists who has lived for more than a hundred years.
“That’s right, it’s snow.”
Sunwoo smiled and shook his head.
If it was cloud snow, he might have known about the kaleidoscope.
She was a woman who was more proficient in Taoism than anyone else in Zhongyuan.
“Then let’s go right away!”
Yo-rang began to pull Seon-wu’s sleeve.
After finding a clue about the kaleidoscope
She didn’t want to waste time.
“Okay, let’s go right away.”
Sunwoo pretended not to be able to resist the attraction of Yorang and followed it.
With anticipation and excitement in his eyes.
***********
“A kaleidoscope, a kaleidoscope?”
Unseol asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
While looking at Seonwoo and Yorang, who came and asked questions.
“Yes, do you know?”
“Yes, I know.”
Unsul shook her head and opened her mouth.
“Really? Are you really there?”
“Do you know how to make it?”
“How do you make it?”
“Does it cost a lot of ingredients? What do you need?”
Then Sunwoo and Yorang scrambled to ask her questions.
It was because she was thrilled when she said that she knew the kaleidoscope.
“For now, both of you calm down and ask me carefully… I… Have one mouth…”
Unseol tried to calm the two of them down with a puzzled look on his face.
It was because I felt the need to calm down to some extent because I was excited more than necessary.
“Ah…Sorry. Senior, I was in a hurry.”
“I’m sorry… Unseol-ah.”
At that, Sunwoo and Yorang apologized at the same time.
It was because I realized that I was acting too hastily.
“No, it could be.”
Unseol removed her mouth as if it didn’t matter.
When her heart was in a hurry, her mouth was bound to be teased.
It’s not something you can’t understand.
“Then I’ll ask you step by step.”
Soon, Seonwoo calmed his excitement and slowly opened his mouth.
“What is the kaleidoscope you know, specifically?”
“It’s a purpose-built mirror designed to peek into the world behind it.”
Unseol spoke in a calm tone.
“If it’s the world behind it…?”
“It means a world different from the present world. It’s like a good world, a hell world, or a heavenly world up there.”
In an instant, Seonwoo’s eyes began to shine.
He found the kaleidoscope he was looking for.
The modern world reflected in the outside world can also be called the world behind it.
“Then is the kaleidoscope real?”
Seonwoo asked her expectations while facing her young eyes.
“Hmm…”
Then Unseol let out a quiet voice with a troubled expression on his face.
It’s like you’re in trouble.
‘Why doesn’t he give a definite answer?’
Sunwoo felt suspicious about that attitude.
Or not.
If it’s right, then it’s right.
It was because she was puzzled by her attitude of not giving a definitive answer.
“It may or may not exist… It may not exist.”
Soon, Unseol spat out the words after thinking.
“…What do you mean by that?”
Seonwu asked with an expression as if he didn’t know.
What the hell do you mean by that
“There are records that say it was actually written, but I’m not sure if that’s true. It’s a very old record, and I’ve never heard of anyone making it after that.”
Records of kaleidoscopes certainly existed.
But I couldn’t prove its authenticity.
It’s also a very old record, and I’ve never heard of someone making it after that.
That’s why I couldn’t be sure if it was real or not.
“…”
Seonwoo put on a disappointed expression.
The fact that you can’t confirm the reality
In other words, it was like saying that the way to make it is also far away.
The clues he had found had gone far away again.
I couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
“What is it? Then you can’t make it? Heeing.”
Yorang also wept with a disappointed expression on his face.
She was the one who had high hopes for the idea of peeking through the kaleidoscope beyond the realm.
But now I don’t know if it’s real or not.
The disappointment was indescribably great.
Disappointment was commensurate with expectations.
“…I can’t say for sure that it doesn’t make it completely again.”
“Yes?”
“To?”
Seonwoo and Yorang, who were very disappointed for a moment, asked back with stupid expressions on their faces.
What does that mean again
Didn’t you say that you couldn’t confirm existence?
But I can’t say for certain that I can’t make it.
“It’s because the conditions for making it are so difficult. The manufacturing method definitely exists.”
Unseol spoke in a calm tone.
The conditions are so difficult that no one has ever made it, but the way to make it has been real to this day.
That’s why you can’t conclude that it can’t be made.
“What! Then you should have said that earlier! You were disappointed for no reason!
Yorang was very excited and expressed his resentment.
In other words, how can you let people in?
“Did I… Just answer the question?”
“I don’t know! You’re an idiot!”
Yo-rang opened her mouth with a troubled expression on her face.
It wasn’t her fault, but she wanted to fool around.
“Senior, is that condition very difficult?”
Seonwoo, who had been silent at that time, slowly opened his mouth.
It was because I was in doubt.
How difficult is the alternative?
That is, until now, the kaleidoscope itself has been dismissed as a legend.
“Yes, but I don’t think it would be impossible to make it now. The most difficult conditions have already been met.”
“The most demanding conditions?”
Sunwoo asked her as if she didn’t know.
Have you already achieved the toughest conditions?
I haven’t done anything
What do you mean you have achieved?
“In order to create a kaleidoscope that reflects the world behind it, it takes someone who has opened their eyes to the other side.”
“If you’re the one who opened your eyes on the other side…Couldn’t it be?”
Seonwoo asked again, staring at her with her trembling eyes.
“Yes, I need someone who can reach immortality.”
As if that prediction was correct, Unseol shook her head and replied.
“A transcendental person like your junior.”
“…Ah.”
Sunwoo could understand.
Why, despite the existence of the manufacturing method, the kaleidoscope had to be dismissed as a legend?
Originally, when they reached transcendence, they were bound to take the top line and climb to the world of goodness.
There was no time to remain in the present world and make a kaleidoscope.
“I don’t think it’s impossible because I’ve met the most demanding conditions.”
Unseol opened her mouth while looking at Seonwu, who was making a blank expression.
“To actually create a kaleidoscope.”
Unsul began to twinkle her interest-filled eyes.
She was also curious.
Will it be possible to actually create a kaleidoscope that has been dismissed as a legend?
Can you see the world behind the scenes?
“Wow! Then you can make it unconditionally?”
Yo-rang raised her voice in an excited voice.
The most difficult conditions have already been met.
“But I can’t say it unconditionally. Yorang-nim.”
Unseol shook his head from side to side and opened his mouth.
“No, why does Unseol keep talking like he’s gone!? Or no! If it’s right, you should be right!”
Then Yorang raised her voice while frowning at her.
It was because Unseol’s tone of voice, which avoided a definite answer by saying that it might be true or not, felt stuffy.
Where the hell did you learn to talk like that?
“I’m sorry, but the remaining conditions are also quite difficult, so I couldn’t give you a definite answer.”
Unseol opened her mouth with an expression of disrespect.
Although not as good as the first condition, the remaining conditions also boasted considerable difficulty.
I couldn’t give you an easy answer.
“How difficult are the other conditions, so you’re saying that?”
Sunwoo asked with a questioning expression on his face.
That’s why I wondered how difficult it was to say that.
“I need the purest flame first.”
“If it’s the purest flame, ask Hyeonyoung…”
“Not the hottest flame.”
Unseol shook his head from side to side and continued.
“The purest and most holy essence of the flame.”
Then, slowly, he began to speak.
“To make a kaleidoscope, you need a fire crystal.”
“…If it’s fire spirit… Can’t it?”
“Yes, it’s a demonic cult that has gone extinct.”
Unseol flashed her calm eyes and spat out her words.
Upon hearing that, Seonwoo’s pupils began to shake non-stop.
