He raised his hands to rub his face, his eyes showing determination, “So we must try to get out of here alive.”

The young man cried and said, “We are so miserable. What is this God’s Game? Why were we chosen?”

The middle-aged man shook his head, “I don’t know. Maybe we’ll find the answer after we clear the level.”

The two of them chatted casually.

The uncontrollable emotions were slowly suppressed.

The young man raised his arm to wipe his tears and looked at the sky.

He did not know if the sky outside was clear, cloudy, or if it was snowing.

On the first day of the new year, their family would go for a walk by the river.

Although it was very cold, it was a new year. He would go out and welcome the new year with a good mood.

But this year…

He had suddenly gone missing. He wondered how anxious his parents were.

The young man suddenly sat up, his face filled with unprecedented determination.

Even if it was for his family, he had to work hard to get out of here alive.

The middle-aged man walked over and extended his hand.

The young man held his hand and stood up with a bright smile: “Sir, I’ll continue to count on you from here on!”

The middle-aged man nodded. His mature face was filled with love for his junior.

However, there was a deep sadness and heaviness in his eyes.

Each time, the guardian beast was different. He did not know what was next.

If the difference in strength was too great, then they…

The short-haired girl and the boy’s team finally subdued the guardian beast at the last second and managed to obtain their first clue.

The two of them hugged each other and cried. Of course, it was the girl who cried.

“I’ve finally overcome my fear. I’ve finally overcome my fear… Woohoo.”

She held a small pair of scissors in her right hand, her fingers trembling non-stop. She was very excited.

“I stabbed its eyes and cut its neck. I was the one who hurt it.”

The boy smiled and said, “Yes, we were able to subdue it because you injured it. You obtained this clue.”

The girl laughed happily. As she laughed, she cried again while muttering: “That’s great, that’s great. Woohoo~”

She was no longer a cowardly burden. She had also become brave for once.

The girl’s feelings at this moment were so strong that even the boy, who was very empathetic, would not be able to fully understand her.

Really.

In the real world, she was just an ordinary person.

She lacked courage and was very weak and cowardly.

She knew her shortcomings very well.

That was exactly why she was so excited after overcoming her weakness.

The girl hugged the boy and cried for a long time before letting him go.

After she calmed down, she felt embarrassed and said, “I’m sorry, I was too emotional and couldn’t control my emotions.”

“I understand.”

The boy smiled and said, “You have to continue being brave next time.”

“Yeah.”

The girl nodded. She was full of confidence and courage now.

After the two left, a faint golden figure appeared in the tattered black cloth.

The divine light illuminated the gloomy and terrifying black cloth, making it seem like a benevolent and peaceful divine temple hall.

The repairman looked at their departing figures and shook his head with a chuckle, “These children are quite brave.”

He looked around at the tattered black cloth and added, “It’s just that they’re too good at causing trouble and know how to exploit loopholes.”

The hand with the five rings lifted slightly.

With a flash of divine light, all of the black cloth was repaired. At the same time, his figure disappeared.

“Since we don’t have any clues this time, which direction do we go? Nancy, why don’t we choose a random direction?”

Nancy clenched her right fist and coughed lightly, “Alright.”
