Seoul Object Story

Inside a building with a massive statue.

The pink girl read something that seemed to be a meaningful inscription carved at the base of the statue, then touched it with a serious expression.

“This doesn’t look like it was dug up recently, does it?”

The pink girl said this as she turned towards the Blue Reaper.

Then she began to rub her fingertips together.

“The marks are sharp, and there’s still quite a bit of stone dust left.”

The Blue Reaper looked up blankly at its Attachment Human, who seemed to be chattering excitedly.

“It seems like there were people here until recently. I wonder if they also headed to the upper levels?”

The pink girl said this, then muttered with a slightly confused expression.

“What should I do?”

“What am I supposed to do when I meet people?”

“I’ve never met anyone except Grandpa, so I’m not sure.”

The Blue Reaper gave a slight smile towards its Attachment Human, who seemed somewhat excited but also anxious.

<It’ll be okay!>

Then, just as the Golden Reaper would do, it clenched both fists tightly and sent out text strings.

That gesture looked a bit awkward, making the pink girl laugh softly.

The pink girl placed the Blue Reaper on her shoulder and began walking down the huge corridor.

Continuing towards the tower connecting the levels.

Thump thump.

The pink girl’s footsteps echoed through the empty white corridor.

A massive corridor built to accommodate large crowds, like parks on Earth.

Walking through this overly spacious corridor with just the two of them made the Blue Reaper feel quite lonely.

As the Blue Reaper was looking around like that, it caught a glimpse of something moving.

Slither.

One of the many statues decorating the corridor silently turned its eyeballs to stare intently.

<!!!>

Startled, the Blue Reaper frantically slapped the pink girl’s cheek and pointed with its finger.

As the pink girl turned her head at the Blue Reaper’s call, the statue rolled its eyes to look at her.

“!!!”

Surprised, the pink girl hugged the Blue Reaper tightly to her chest and started running frantically down the corridor.

After passing through seemingly endless stairs and corridors lined with white walls and black statues, they were able to reach the rooftop of the large building.

The sky had already sunk into darkness, and beyond the rooftop, they could see the landscape of a level filled with water.

The pink girl sat down on the rooftop, catching her breath.

“What on earth was that? Since it didn’t chase us, I guess it wasn’t that dangerous.”

The pink girl laughed, still breathing heavily.

Then she turned her gaze to admire the view of the level visible from the rooftop.

A night sky full of stars visible through gaps in the sky curtain.

Buildings stained by the color of night, without a single point of light.

And clear water forming a calm surface, seeping between those buildings.

“It looks like there are two skies.”

The starlight filling the sky was perfectly reflected on the water’s surface, making it feel as if they were sitting between two starry skies.

Splash.

At that moment, they heard the sound of something falling into the water.

What fell onto the water’s surface looked somewhat familiar to the Blue Reaper.

Golden luster.

Sharp teeth.

A massive jaw.

It looked like the head of the Golden-Mecha-Tyranno that Mom loved.

<Look at that!>

When they looked where the Blue Reaper was pointing, they saw black statues wriggling, crushing and devouring the dinosaur head.

“Those statues really were moving. I thought I was imagining things…”

As the statues began to move, the sturdy dinosaur head made of metal disappeared in an instant.

“Ah, so that’s why there was no trash.”

The pink girl wore an expression that somehow looked relieved.

In contrast, the Blue Reaper had a very worried expression.

<Mom’s going to be incredibly angry…>

The Tyranno toy, which was suspected to be even more precious than the Mini Reapers, had been destroyed. It felt like the tower might collapse at any moment.

‘I hope Mom comes as late as possible!’

‘I hope this journey with just my Attachment Human and me lasts a little longer!’

The Blue Reaper fervently wished.
