"Gong-ja? what are you doing here?"

His eyes were wide when he made eye contact. Letting out a large breath his body released all tension that was once there.

"I'm here to see you silly" The closed eye smile did something to me. My blood began to rush and my body heated up.

"Oh. Here come on in" Stepping out of the way, a wave of my hand indicated him to step in.

"I went to the cafe to meet you but you didn't show up. Why?" We made our way to my dining room table.

 I gave no response to his question. How was I meant to answer? Oh yeah, sorry Gong-ja, I was just having a mid-life crisis and quick depressive moment since I'm not even meant to be here. I put my hands together and pull them toward my face. Why did the tower bring me here?

"You're able to defeat the demon king without me. I've got you to the point where you could. It's up to you to do it." Finally finding a nice way to explain. In the manhwa, he was able to do it with slight ease. Oh, why did I interfere? It was fine without me. 

"What are you talking about!" He slammed a fist to the table shaking everything I had on the table. This shocked me out of my thoughts. "You said it yourself! You got me here so you might as well finish it with me!" 

"Gong-ja." 

"We've trained together and beat 10 floors together you can't stop now for a stupid reason as In me being able to defeat him by myself!" 

"Gong-ja." Softly calling his name in an almost whisper tone. That must of made him realize what he just did because he looked down at the table. Tears weld up in his eyes. " You know nothing about me. I never explained to you who I am or my background. How I knew you when I meet you months ago. I can't expect you to keep following my lead or trust a word out of my mouth." I'm cutting this friendship here.

"So tell me. If I don't know anything about you then tell me but I'm sure Black witch told you, here in the tower, your background or anything from before doesn't matter."

Maybe its time. " My name is (y/n) (l/n) and I'm not from this world."

"Is she a Chūnibyō?" The sword master piped up which ticked me off. I'm having a serious moment here. 

"I'm not a Chūnibyō! I'm from a world where the tower doesn't exist! At least I don't think so."

 Swordmaster's eyes widen real quick with Gong-ja not far behind when it finally clicks that I talk to his little pet that back-talks him. 

"Did she just talk to me?" The sword master floated to Gong-ja really excited like a kid asking their parents for a toy they want. 

"Yeah. I could see and hear you the entire time. Hell, I even know everything about you." Of course, he would challenge me. "You have a similar personality to Gong-ja here. Strong-headed, unruly, selfish, childish but simple. Both are willing to anger the other for humor. You two have twin personalities. However, you can be serious and open-minded when needed. You have a lot of knowledge and wisdom about the tower which Gong-ja needs. Hell, I even need it. In your world, the tower appeared in your hometown. You conquered the tower faster than the other hunters but failed to clear the 100th floor and died. You are a slop just like how Gong-ja was when he was 32." 

Taking a breath. I turn to Gong-ja. "You. You are an orphan. Below average hunter that adored and worshiped higher rankers. This admiration later turned into envy and became the main subject of your jealousy. You were jealous of the flame emperor and were given a card that allows you to copy others and you got the time-rewined skill when he killed you. You then killed yourself 4,090 to go back in time to kill him and buried him." 

"How do you know all this." The fear Gong-ja felt in that moment.

"Because in my world the tower doesn't exist. This is a story. I've read from the moment you got your first skill to far into the future. Plus I reread your fandom wikis so many times I memorized most of it."

"What! There are wikis about us?" Nodding my head to answer them. 

"The story is pretty popular when it comes to action manhwa. I would say the progress you two make is amazing. The way you play the tower and the guild leaders is amazing but the sweet moment you have made so many people fall for you me Included." 

"Fall for me? You?" Nodding my head yes. "Wow." We sit in silence as they process everything I told them.
