Chapter 113
I immediately cleared away the bed that had been split in half and summoned a new one, throwing myself on it. As always, the king-size bed, a luxury reserved for the first floor, enveloped me in its soft embrace.
“Hahaha...”
A hollow laugh escaped my lips—it still didn’t feel real. Finally, finally, I had saved everyone. I hadn’t witnessed the end myself, but the message window floating before my eyes told me everything. I had succeeded.
Some might say, “Why exhaust yourself so much for just the fourth floor?” But I was content. It had been a grueling, tormenting, exhausting process, yet I had managed to achieve the ending I had longed for. That was enough.
Of course, it was true that I was beyond drained. From a mental standpoint, the smart thing might have been to save just enough people and move on to the fifth floor. But I didn’t want to. This time, I wanted to save everyone perfectly, to save them all. Perhaps... Perhaps it was a form of compensation for how things had ended so messily with Dok Su-hee on the third floor.
No, enough with the complicated thoughts. For now, it’s time for a rest.
I buried my head into the soft pillow, wrapping myself in the blanket as I rolled around on the bed. After spending so much time in a cold, barren, blood-soaked battlefield, even this small moment of happiness felt precious.
“…”
But as my racing heart slowly cooled and my sharp mind began to take over, I could no longer just roll around in bed.
