Chapter 192
192: Finally Here! Wait… the White Door? (3)
Dohyun wasn’t the only one taken aback by the dazzlingly pure white door that stung his eyes. Hanalin and Jiyuchan’s eyes trembled with confusion as they gazed upon it. They’d heard plenty about the Black Gate and Dungeons, but this was the first time they’d ever heard of such a brilliantly white door existing.
The joy of obtaining treasure evaporated as curiosity took hold, replaced instead by heightened caution. Hanalin and Jiyuchan immediately readied themselves to unleash magic and draw their blades at a moment’s notice.
Dohyun, however, possessed Analysis, and out of habit, he activated it to examine whatever this was.
Unlike the Black Gate that greedily devoured all light, casting everything in darkness, this white door radiated light in a dazzling spectrum of colors that stung the eyes. Curious about what could possibly be happening, I used Analysis, only to receive an unexpected result.
[Analyzing ‘Fragment of the White Door’.]
[Analysis of ‘Fragment of the White Door’ fails.]
[You have not obtained ‘Transcendence’ to touch the truth of the ‘Black Gate’ and ‘White Door’.]
‘Again?’
Seeing the message that I had failed to transcend and thus couldn’t touch the truth, curiosity bloomed within me about how to obtain Transcendence. Of course, more pressing was understanding the Fragment of the White Door before my eyes. There had to be some connection.
As I searched for a way to understand the White Door, Analysis once again delivered what I needed.
[Partial Analysis of ‘Fragment of the White Door’ succeeds.]
[The ‘Treasure Map of the Seafloor’ fulfills its role as a key and disappears.]
[Due to the ‘Treasure Map of the Seafloor’, the ‘Fragment of the White Door’ will never harm you or your party.]
Compared to the information Analysis usually provided, this was remarkably simple, but right now there was no information more important than this. I lowered my guard.
As I relaxed my tension appropriately, Hanalin and Jiyuchan, who had been watching me and waiting, gradually eased their own caution as well.
Still.
“What exactly is this?”
“The Black Gate and the White Door…”
“I’m not entirely sure, but given that we could find it with the treasure map, it’s probably some kind of treasure, right? Either way, it shouldn’t harm us.”
“That might be true.”
If the Black Gate brought calamity to monsters and people alike, then the White Door, being its opposite in color, would likely bring something beneficial.
There was no point discussing it further here.
Like a Dungeon—like the Distorted Fragment of the Black Gate—I stepped forward and grasped the handle of the White Door, with Hanalin and Jiyuchan immediately positioning themselves behind me.
As I opened the door to see what would happen, a brilliant white light erupted forth, engulfing the entire Dohyun Party in its radiance, and moments later, all three of us vanished without a trace.
* * *
Light flooded his senses, and Jiyuchan, who had lost consciousness for a moment, suddenly awoke with a violent dizziness from the spatial displacement, clutching his head as he staggered to his feet.
The nausea was more than ten times worse than when entering the Black Gate, and at first he couldn’t regain his senses, but his superhuman physiology allowed him to recover quickly.
“Ugh…”
Still dizzy from the lingering nausea, Jiyuchan looked around as he stood and realized something was wrong.
“…Where did they go?”
In this Pure White World, only Jiyuchan existed in this place. Suddenly alone and with no idea where he was, Jiyuchan calmly surveyed his surroundings again, hoping to find some clue.
As he looked around, he noticed something in this Pure White World that was so white it had nearly escaped his notice at first glance.
It was none other than.
“…A Stone Tablet?”
It resembled the Stone Tablets that only the Safe Zone centers, the Association, and large Guilds possessed. A blessing of the Black Gate that revealed promotion status or points, allowed you to spend points to purchase items.
However, the Stone Tablet here was slightly different from that one.
The Black Gate’s Stone Tablet was truly dark, nearly black in color, but this one was pure white like its surroundings, giving the impression of looking at marble.
“I should probably touch it…right?”
Left alone and already tense, Jiyuchan muttered to himself. Still, since this was a place they’d found using the Treasure Map, it shouldn’t cause any harm—reassured by this thought, Jiyuchan approached the Stone Tablet without excessive fear.
As he naturally placed his hand upon it, characters began to materialize across the Stone Tablet’s surface.
[Analyzing target『Analysis』….]
[….]
[….]
Watching the dots multiply as if the system were loading, Jiyuchan tilted his head in confusion.
His expression suggested bewilderment at what this could possibly be, yet he sensed something peculiar emanating from the Stone Tablet—as though this entire Pure White World revolved around it. Through his hand, he felt as though he could pierce through everything, but Jiyuchan simply accepted it without question.
The sensation felt oddly familiar, so he let it pass. As he stared blankly at the Stone Tablet, new characters soon appeared.
[Successfully analyzed target「Jiyuchan」with『Analysis』.]
[Target「Jiyuchan」’s characteristic is「Platinum Sword King」.]
[Searching for the『Legacy』most suited to「Platinum Sword King」.]
[Summoning『Platinum Sword’s Textbook』.]
Upon reading these characters, Jiyuchan blinked rapidly. It felt as though an overwhelming flood of information had been driven into his mind all at once. What was Analysis? What was a characteristic? What was the Platinum Sword King?
And what did Legacy mean?
Unable to properly comprehend any single thing, only one fact remained certain.
Thud—.
A single book fell from midair before the Stone Tablet, just as if he’d purchased an item from a shop, and Jiyuchan carefully picked it up—yet he still couldn’t decipher it.
He could only interpret the title the Stone Tablet had revealed: Platinum Sword’s Textbook. Everything else remained incomprehensible.
But Jiyuchan was no fool, so he understood this much: what now rested in his hands was something worthy of being called a treasure.
‘Dohyun can interpret this for me… right?’
Knowing full well that if not, things would become quite difficult, Jiyuchan earnestly hoped Dohyun would be able to decipher it.
With that thought, Jiyuchan held the textbook and was engulfed in light once more. When the brilliance faded, he found himself vanished from the Pure White Room entirely.
* * *
Around the time Jiyuchan regained consciousness in the White Room, Hanalin too awakened in a space as pure and white as the Pure White World.
Since her mana sensitivity and control surpassed Jiyuchan’s, Hanalin quickly recovered from her disorientation and raised her guard, rapidly surveying her surroundings while spreading mana to attempt detection—finding little of note, she blinked and slowly rose to her feet.
She wasn’t surprised that Dohyun and Jiyuchan were absent; she’d realized this immediately upon using detection. After all, being separated in dungeons was hardly uncommon, and Hanalin knew far too much to be startled by such occurrences.
Yet as she scanned her surroundings with mana, she tilted her head at the object she perceived.
‘…A Stone Tablet?’
It was strange to find a Stone Tablet here—something one would expect to see only in the Safe Zone’s center—but since Dohyun had already told her there was no need for caution, Hanalin trusted his word implicitly and approached the Stone Tablet.
This process was nearly twice as fast as Jiyuchan’s, and upon reaching the Stone Tablet, Hanalin naturally placed her hand upon its surface. This too was far quicker than Jiyuchan’s approach.
As Hanalin’s hand touched the Stone Tablet, characters materialized just as they had for Jiyuchan.
[Analyzing target『Analysis』….]
[….]
[….]
What Jiyuchan had grown accustomed to and simply overlooked, Hanalin now perceived with perfect clarity.
The sensation of something piercing through her body, laying her bare in every detail, sent a chill racing down her spine.
And she thought:
“Why… am I feeling the same thing I sense from Dohyun here….”
So startled was she that, uncharacteristically, Hanalin muttered the words aloud—and moments later, new characters appeared upon the Stone Tablet.
Simultaneously, that strange sensation she’d felt from Dohyun vanished.
[Successfully analyzing the target “Hanalin”.]
[The target “Hanalin”‘s characteristic is “Magical Empress”.]
[Finding the most suitable “Legacy” for the “Magical Empress”.]
[Summoning “Grand Magic – Heavenly Sequence Codex”.]
I was startled by the characteristic “Magical Empress,” but when I saw the text that appeared next, my eyes widened. Grand Magic Heavenly Sequence? The name was unfamiliar, yet I knew well about Grand Magic codices. Or rather, it was precisely one of the things Hanalin had so desperately desired.
Until now, the magic Hanalin had been using was different from martial arts—it was magic that created a single phenomenon through calculations and formulas, rather than something that could be called a technique built upon a single flow or fundamental premise.
However, martial arts could be seen as a technique with a process and flow of expressing a single mental image into the world. Among magic, there existed techniques like that too.
And those were called Grand Magic. Like martial arts, multiple techniques existed, and the style was one of connecting techniques together to express one’s mental image into the world.
‘To obtain Grand Magic in a place like this…!’
When the object—which should be called a grimoire rather than a codex—fell before the Stone Tablet, Hanalin received it with utmost care.
Though the Ilseong Guild had obtained several martial arts, they had never possessed a grimoire of this kind, which had disappointed Hanalin greatly. But now that sorrow melted away like snow.
‘The rewards are incredible, perhaps because the Treasure Map led us here.’
Hanalin murmured this to herself with a smile. Though she was so delighted she might have forgotten, she recalled the energy she had felt from the Stone Tablet and pondered alone.
‘Could it be connected to Dohyun oppa somehow?’
It was likely that even Dohyun didn’t know, but Hanalin was certain of one thing.
The “Analysis” that Dohyun used and the “Analysis” that the Stone Tablet used were nearly identical. But to be precise…
‘Dohyun oppa’s energy was far deeper and superior…’
What the Stone Tablet was doing felt almost like an imitation. Had it not been for Dohyun’s Analysis, I would have been overwhelmed by that energy and accomplished nothing. But because of Dohyun, I had grown familiar with that aura and could adapt to it.
In this situation, Hanalin swallowed hard, wondering what on earth Dohyun had obtained.
She had obtained Grand Magic herself, so she hadn’t seen it, but Jiyuchan must have received martial arts related to it. Then what had Dohyun received?
Martial arts?
Or Grand Magic like herself?
Or perhaps.
‘Could he have received both?’
Though such thoughts crossed her mind, Hanalin shook her head.
When had Dohyun ever been predictable?
Hanalin nodded at this thought. Regardless, wouldn’t Dohyun receive something beyond her imagination?
Like Jiyuchan, Hanalin too vanished from that room along with the Grand Magic Heavenly Sequence Codex in the light emanating from the Stone Tablet.
And just as Hanalin had predicted, in Dohyun’s White Room, Dohyun stood with his mouth agape, muttering.
“Wait, why is Analysis coming out here?”
Before I could even be bewildered by my own characteristic appearing,
[Two legacies are being created.]
“Two of them!?”
Hanalin’s predictions had come true.
However.
[You are acquiring new characteristic(s).]
There was something unforeseen.
