Therefore, if there was a scale between the choices of ‘Stay’ or ‘Return’, he still inclined toward ‘Return’ for now.
He must pass on the messages entrusted to him by the people who had died in the death game to their bereaved families; it was a promise he must fulfil if he returned to the real world.
But, as he spent time in this world, the scales in Shin slowly, but surely, moved. They were slowly moving away from the choice to “Return”.
There were so many charms in this world. He had overwhelming power that separated him from others, Schnee, who loved him, and former Rokuten followers who still showed him loyalty.
Even if the dangerous living conditions were extremely different from the real world, it was not a great threat to Shin.
He desired to travel freely around the world that had undergone a great change; it would be a lie if he denied that.
In addition, it was possible to reunite with the players who had died―― the more he spent time in this world, the number the bonds he had with its inhabitants increased.
If he found out that Marino was here, the scale would probably sway greatly to one side.
“Well, in the first place, there’s also the problem of whether I can return or not.”
“You’re right. But you were able to come here, so there must be a method, no?”
“As I expected, the gate of the dungeon is the matter of concern. Although it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll have to pass through it again, it’s possible that you’d be able to return if you find yourself in a similar scenario.”
The two people replied seriously to Shin’s words.
From the contents of their discussion, they seemed to agree that Shin should return to the original world.
