The Protagonist’s Younger Sister Revives as a Constellation Episode 059

 

“Why?”

 

When Kim Igyeol, who was the first to notice his change, pressed him, Kang Seo-u let out an awkward laugh and mumbled.

 

“Well, I think we took the wrong path.”

 

As soon as Kang Seo-u finished speaking, the car shook.

 

You have entered the dungeon ‘Swallowed Residential Area (A)’.

 

Another dungeon.

 

It seemed like entering the alley to avoid the dungeon had instead brought us to the center where the dungeon was erupting.

 

Is my luck really bad this year? I’m not even a Hunter, yet I keep entering so many dungeons.

 

Still, since we’re already here, I hope some memory orbs drop.

 

“Why does it have to be a maze?”

 

Kang Seo-u grumbled that mazes weren’t his specialty.

 

There was a reason he was so annoyed. Maze-type dungeons had no monsters.

 

Since he was probably a dopamine addict who enjoyed fighting monsters, he would naturally dislike this kind of dungeon that had no fighting and was just complicated.

 

Maze-type dungeons generally had finding the exit as their clear condition. In this process, most people failed to find the way and got lost wandering around.

 

It was a dungeon that became more disadvantageous the longer it took.

 

I wanted to check the dungeon guidebook, but I couldn’t suddenly pull out a book with other people around. What’s with entering this kind of dungeon when both Antares and Anser are away.

 

“What should we do first?”

 

When I cautiously spoke up, Kim Igyeol offered his opinion.

 

“Let’s check inside the dungeon first.”

 

“Ah, we should do that.”

 

We got out of the car for a moment.

 

Since maze-type dungeons could change their paths at any time, we tied ropes from the car to each other’s bodies to stay connected.

 

The surroundings were exactly the same alley as before entering the dungeon. The convenience store we saw while passing by, the tall buildings, even the rolling trash were all the same.

 

It was so elaborate that it felt like we were mistaking it for the outside rather than a dungeon.

 

“Was the alley we entered earlier near a school?”

 

At Moon Wujin’s words, everyone tilted their heads.

 

“I can see the school rear entrance right now.”

 

“What are you talking about? I can’t see it.”

 

“Igyeol hyung, can’t you see it?”

 

Kim Igyeol grabbed Moon Wujin tightly and questioned him.

 

Watching them exchange words that didn’t make sense to each other, I raised a question.

 

“What if everyone is seeing different things right now?”

 

At the most plausible explanation, we took turns sharing what each of us could see.

 

“I can see our house. It’s quite far from the alley we were in earlier.”

 

“I see a lake.”

 

“I’m at that alley from before. Where the car stopped.”

 

In order of me, Kim Igyeol, Moon Wujin, and Kang Seo-u, it seemed like we were looking at increasingly distant places.

 

Just in case, I asked them if they could see the car we got out of earlier.

 

Fortunately, I heard the answer that the car was clearly visible, and I let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like we could use the car as a reference point for direction.

 

Then I heard Kim Igyeol’s surprised voice as he approached me.

 

“Huh? Now I can see that alley from before too.”

 

I asked him a question to confirm if his view had really changed.

 

“What color is the convenience store sign you can see now?”

 

“Green.”

 

“Which direction is that convenience store in?”

 

Kim Igyeol pointed exactly in the direction where the convenience store was. How did his view change?

 

We got back into the car for now.

 

Since Kim Igyeol and I were looking at the same place, while Kang Seo-u and Moon Wujin were looking at different places, it was difficult from the start.

 

Kim Igyeol said he seemed to know a little about this dungeon and spoke up.

 

“I heard that in this kind of hallucination-type maze dungeon, each person sees different places right after entering.”

 

He said it was an article he read long ago, so he couldn’t remember the exact details.

 

“They say that after some time passes, everyone will see the same place, so let’s wait a bit.”

 

“This might be obvious, but there are no monsters, right?”

 

“Yes. There aren’t any.”

 

At the firm answer, Kang Seo-u clicked his tongue as if it was a waste.

 

After a while, Moon Wujin’s vision also returned, leaving only Kang Seo-u. It seemed like Kang Seo-u would return soon too.

 

Then we heard not a polite knock but a dull knocking sound. It was an older woman, and in the arms of the trembling woman, a young child was sleeping.

 

‘What is that?’

 

Something that looked like a cloud was floating above the child’s head.

 

Unlike me, who felt puzzled seeing that, Kim Igyeol and Kang Seo-u drew their weapons to prepare for any possible situation.

 

Rather than being offended by their attitude, the woman’s face brightened as she asked.

 

“Excuse me, are you Hunters by any chance?”

 

“Are you human?”

 

“Yes, yes! Please save us!”

 

Even at Kang Seo-u’s sharp tone, the woman shouted desperately. Kang Seo-u observed the woman with suspicious eyes.

 

“How did you get here?”

 

After confirming that she had no injuries and the child in her arms was fine, he asked the woman what the situation was.

 

“The child was whining that he was sleepy, so I briefly left the gymnasium and walked around, and ended up here. I definitely planned to just walk around near the gymnasium…”

 

The woman explained haltingly as she recalled her memory.

 

Before the woman finished speaking, we made eye contact with each other. It was a similar situation to ours just a moment ago.

 

“The gymnasium? Where is everyone gathered now?”

 

“At the gymnasium in front of the intersection. We went there because they said it was a safe zone, but a dungeon appeared there, so all the nearby residents gathered.”

 

What Moon Wujin detected earlier was accurate. It seemed like a dungeon had formed at the safe zone Kang Seo-u had pointed to.

 

He’s like a living dungeon detector. He might even be better than the Association. Just today, people evacuated to the wrong place because the location guidance was incorrect.

 

We seated the trembling woman in the back seat so she could calm down, and began discussing what we should do next.

 

If we hadn’t met the woman, it would be one thing, but now that we knew there were other people besides us, it was hard to ignore them.

 

“We should find the gymnasium where people are gathered… But how do we know where it is to go find it?”

 

“Since that woman said she walked here, maybe it’s not too far away?”

 

Kang Seo-u and Kim Igyeol shared their opinions and pondered, but no clear solution emerged.

 

We were just concluding that we should leave this place first, whether by car or on foot.

 

Suddenly the back seat door opened and the woman came running out crying.

 

“My son, my son has disappeared! I was definitely holding him!”

 

The woman cried loudly, wailing.

 

The woman who had lost her son in an instant cried so hard she could barely breathe, then lost consciousness.

 

After laying the woman down in the back seat, we huddled around the car, each lost in our own thoughts.

 

One of the two people had disappeared.

 

There were occasionally dungeons like that. It wasn’t that they really disappeared, but walls would suddenly rise up in a split second, making it seem like they had vanished.

 

But the case of this mother and child was different. They were in close contact, and the mother was holding her son’s body.

 

Yet the sleeping son had disappeared. How is that possible?

 

“How is that possible?”

 

I thought I had said that out loud. I was startled when Moon Wujin tilted his head and uttered those words.

 

Unable to find an answer no matter how much he thought about it, he poked Kim Igyeol repeatedly and asked.

 

“Hyung, you said you knew about this dungeon. Does this kind of thing happen too?”

 

Kim Igyeol shook his head with an expressionless face.

 

In frustration, I roughly tousled my hair. I had no idea about this type of dungeon either.

 

I had never read about it in the original work, so how would I know? Jin Sehyeok didn’t like this kind of dungeon, and he was even lucky enough to never have entered one.

 

Kang Seo-u, who had been quietly listening to our conversation, opened his mouth to speak.

 

“Let’s go to the gymnasium first.”

 

He suggested we head to the place where survivors had gathered, as the woman had mentioned.

 

“Maybe they could be at the gymnasium.”

 

Brushing the back of his head as if he had a headache, he grabbed the steering wheel and suddenly turned to look at Kim Igyeol.

 

Kang Seo-u placed his hand on Kim Igyeol’s shoulder and asked with a friendly smile.
