mark

As time passed, the sun slowly gave way to the moon, and thus evening came.

Sofia and Kadir stopped training a long time ago. I confirmed that he had learned enough by asking Kadir some questions.

-----

I looked at Sofia and asked if I should make dinner.

"My mother will not come today. My mother has already gone to the place where the A-level dungeon will appear. I will order pizza again."

"Is your mother a hunter?"

"Both yes and no"

" What does it mean "

"This means my mother is a hunter, but she doesn't go into dungeons."

"Kind of like a cook?"

"Sort of. If you're curious, you can ask her."

" Ok "

Sofia ordered food from her phone, came and sat in one of the armchairs in front of the TV, and without question, she started watching the movie I came across on TV with me.

After a while, Kadir came down the stairs of the upper floor wearing a pink T-shirt and white tracksuit. When I saw Kadir's current state, I rolled my eyes and looked at Sofia, who covered her mouth to keep from laughing.

"Kadir, why did you wear these clothes?"

"My other clothes were torn, Sofia said she could lend me clothes"

*laughter sound*

When Sofia heard Kadir's innocent explanation, she couldn't hold herself back anymore and started laughing loudly.

I was sure that Kadir was a very smart kid, but for some reason, when it came to such things, he suddenly became stupid.

After eating our pizza while watching an action-comedy movie with Kadir and Sofia, Sofia turned to me and asked why I hadn't gone yet. This was a question I had been waiting for, and the answer I gave to this question would determine the fate of my plan to include Sofia in the simulation.

"You know we have to leave early in the morning, right?"

Sofia frowned and looked as if she had guessed the end of the conversation. When I saw her expression, I took the conversation to the wrong side.

"Come to the dormitory around 8 in the morning"

"There's no way. Why are we leaving so early? Besides, it's not even clear when the portal will appear."

"This is exactly why we will be leaving early. Also, I already bought our bus tickets."

"Come onn, are you serious? Do I really have to leave the house at 7 in the morning? Can't you change it?"

"No, I can't change it. If there is a guest room, we can leave the house together in the morning, but "

"So that's the point, you're just too lazy to go to the dormitory. In fact, if your guess is right, you haven't even bought a ticket yet."

Seeing that Sofia caught my thoughts so quickly, with little error, I played my trump card and looked at her with a straight face.

When Sofia saw my non-joking expression, she backtracked, convinced that her guess was exaggerated.

"Okay, then you can stay in any of the rooms downstairs. They haven't been used for a long time anyway."

As Sofia walked up the stairs, she told me to get her up at least an hour in the morning and prepare or order breakfast before waking her up.

I ignored Sofia's orders and went into my profile and looked up the details of what I needed to do before putting someone else into the simulation.

"Can you teach me how you deceived Master Sofia?"

I turned my head and saw Kadir snuggled up to me without me realizing it. He was looking at me with his eyes literally shining

"How did you know I was lying and why are your eyes shining?"

"Because I have a knack for it"

" Do you have the ability to detect lies? I thought your title was about archery "

"My talent allows me to see more closely"

"So how did you know I was lying?"

"When Sofia asked if she really bought her bus ticket, a small drop of sweat appeared just above her neck."

"And I thought I was sweating because I lied to you. So who taught you this?"

"I saw an experiment about this on social media"

I raised my hand and gently hit the back of Kadir's head, making Kadir fall off the couch.

"Go and go to bed. And never again believe everything you learn on the internet, 98% of the information on social media is false or inaccurate."

"So will you teach me?"

"Don't make me repeat my words and go to bed. You have to get up early tomorrow. Besides, I really bought the ticket."

Disappointed, Kadir entered the room I showed him and closed the door, and I threw myself on the sofa.

To tell you the truth, the little bastard got me good this time.

I shook my head, put these thoughts out of my mind and returned to my original plan. There were two warnings in the system that I had to pay particular attention to.

[ You can mark* a person to enter the simulation . When the person you mark sleeps, he will enter the simulation and the simulation will continue in an accelerated manner until the person in the simulation wakes up. ]

[Warning 1 - make sure that the person you choose to enter the simulation is not awakened by unnatural means]

First of all, I had to mark Sofia before falling asleep. When I pressed the expand button on the word mark, an explanation appeared.

[ There are two methods of marking, the first of which is the hidden method

- Marking a person will cost you one point of mana

- the marking process takes one minute

- The distance between you and the person to be marked should not exceed 5 meters

- To start the marking process, bring your hands together, inject one point of mana into the middle of your hands and say mark.

- After the marking process is completed, the marked person will experience a strong feeling of insomnia

- After you start the marking process, an invisible and non-existent energy thread will emerge from your hands and connect to the body of the person you want to mark.

- do not move from your position during the marking process

The second marking method is as follows

- make physical contact with the person you want to mark and carve a small tattoo on their body for everyone to see

- does not require mana

- it is an instant process ]

The marking process was much more laborious than I expected.

To ensure that the five-meter distance was maintained, I first had to go to the corridor to which Sofia's room was connected.

The problem was that when I turned my head and looked at the ceiling out of the corner of my eye, I saw a flashing red light there.

I thought the hard part of the plan would be convincing Sofia to spend the night, but apparently I was wrong.

While I was sitting on the sofa looking at the TV that was still on, I put my hand on my chin and started to make a good plan.
