Debut or Die - Chapter 406
If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 406
The system owner who should have been on the plane with me evaporated in my head.
like it wasn’t
But if the young lady in front of me had remembered.
‘There’s no way this bastard didn’t notice that I didn’t know.’
Could it be that you haven’t felt a sense of incongruity while you’ve been talking about it for over half a year?
This is intentionally left unsaid. Right now, this guy’s reaction is saying the same.
I said between my teeth.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
Cheong-ryeo smiled and replied.
“I thought my junior would react that way.”
“… … .”
what?
“You may have many thoughts now, but… Well, except for the anger or irritation towards me, there must be only one thing left.”
Chung-rye speaks casually.
“Does it bother you?”
“… … !”
“You worry about people who don’t know who they are, where they are, or what their situation is. no?”
“Can you not care?”
The X-footed person evaporated, but of course… .
no wait
I remembered this guy’s reaction the last time I brought up the story of a memory error about my parents.
‘Memory is inherently error-prone, so it’s okay as long as you properly remember the information you need to proceed… .’
Because
-you have to be vigilant… It is an additional effect caused by memory.
-emotion.
And I realized
“… Whether or not he disappears has nothing to do with achieving the goal, right?”
“is it so.”
The guy narrows his eyes.
“Your junior is the type to rationalize efficiency when something bothers you.”
what.
“Can I give you an example? Even when the group has already been formed, juniors are still trying to find testa members because it’s not helpful to the target.”
“… !”
Cheongryeo looks at me.
“Today, at an awards ceremony that wasn’t much of a topic, we did a meaningless commemorative stage.”
“… … .”
“Even now, I pay a lot of attention to side things, but how much do you care about the safety of the person your junior brought in?”
I closed my mouth. He gets up from his seat and smiles.
“I think the explanation is enough, but I’m angry with myself even now… .”
“Do you think the guy who had the system is in a bad state right now?”
“… !”
This is it.
I looked at him.
“If I couldn’t remember and you did, there was no need to come to this situation.”
Since you just can’t remember, I’ll be able to convince you that I’ll be in charge of looking for it. Like I said, I can’t remember anyway.
By the way.
Here’s an exaggerated answer at the level of ‘If you knew the truth, you would not be able to work because you care’?
“You have no explanation other than to know what happened to that bastard.”
And that’s quite… on the bad side.
enough to upset me
I crossed my arms and glared at him.
“… … .”
Chung-rye did not waver.
“Is there a need for juniors to be so persistent about a person they don’t even know? I wasn’t too familiar with it at first. two.”
“Do you know? The problem is that you are trying to fool people right now.”
“I didn’t cheat.”
The guy clicked his tongue. this kid
“Your juniors, your juniors also have information that you didn’t bother to tell me. isn’t it? I thought it would be difficult for the other person to understand.”
“… … .”
I reflexively recalled the list of emoticons in the status window that informed my colleague’s current status, then shut up.
the guy laughed
“It is the same. I also wanted my juniors not to waste time and resources on someone they don’t even know.”
Sophistry speaks well like X once.
“It sounds like you’d blow it if I knew who he was, but I just can’t remember, but we know each other.”
“hmm?”
The guy tilts his head to the side.
“You don’t know now.”
I gritted my teeth.
Getting angry or hitting is stupid. This asshole is my group now, like it or not, and the moment the violence gets caught in the press, it’s a scandal.
‘Then let’s approach it rationally.’
I also have a head. roll it
The worst thing that can happen to a system owner who disappears while the system is in a state of congestion?
It was then.
[Hey, why are you so shameless? Hyung, if I only had a body, I would have beaten you!]
Status window.
While watching the big moon pop-up, I inadvertently gave the correct answer out of my mouth.
“It’s been eaten by that system.”
“… … .”
As if the big moon had become that way.
“Right?”
Cheong-ryeo did not respond. It was a de facto affirmation. I clenched my fist.
then.
‘There is definitely a clue.’
I desperately shake my head.
If GNOME was really absorbed into the system, I might notice it while using the system now.
A passage that feels out of place somewhere.
Just as the big moon caused an error and gave the coin, it was unexpected and had a different regularity than before.
Anything that is exceptional or does not flow naturally within the system.
“… … .”
that.
-This is useless, so why is it coming out?
Round golden shape like a coin… but only displayed in text.
[The money for failure came… .]
+ 10G
+ 10G
Gold.
I didn’t know why this was there, so I thought it was dummy data sticking out with the < 127 section > format applied.
But if this… If it’s some kind of signal.
If it’s a barely tolerated trick or bug that can be given in the system.
‘Who comes to mind when I think of gold?’
Something immediately comes to mind.
-Roughly… Shall we call them Gold 1 and Gold 2?
Title given in < Azusa >.
The two that I had a relationship with until recently.
‘Golden Age’s Ha Il-jun and Spacer’s Kwon Hee-seung.’
“… !”
I put up with interjections mixed with profanity.
Let’s stay calm.
Which of the two would be more suitable for knowing the future?
‘This is too obvious.’
I opened my mouth.
“It’s Kwon Hee-seung.”
“… … .”
The guy who suddenly won the new season of < Azusa > and the guy who has more time to interact with me because we are from the same agency is him after all.
Cheong-ryo was still expressionless, but I saw her eyes narrowing and widening.
‘Right.’
I clenched my fists and walked to the desk where he was standing.
“Now that you know, answer me.”
“… … .”
“Exactly what happened to that bastard.”
And how the hell do you know that?
The expression on her face disappeared, and she slowly opened her mouth.
“Are you willing to wait until the goal is achieved?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“hmm.”
The guy lowered his eyes.
And when he raised his head again.
————————
[ ]
———– –
Suddenly the world stopped.
‘Ah’
I looked around.
I thought it was already a quiet enough, motionless room, but in fact there are moving things.
The sound of the TV from the living room outside the room, the sound of the clock’s second hand moving, and the fine contrast.
But everything stopped moving and hardened as if flattened. A world where motion has disappeared and stopped.
and in between
“Are you surprised? They said that we had to pause for a while to fully visualize this.”
Only one guy moves with liveliness.
Cheongrye.
“… to stop.”
“yes. Well, it seems to be a common thing in normal games.”
The guy raises his hand.
“I heard that play stops when the settings window is called up.”
And numerous holograms begin to appear in front of you.
Geeeeing-
A hard world filled with small and big boxes.
However, the direction of the text is the opposite.
therefore… It’s not for me to see it, it’s for the person standing in the opposite direction to see it.
Cheongrye.
[Duty: Let’s help the character’s smooth game activities!]
[▶Quest in progress]
[Environment settings]
Beyond those hologram windows, I checked the text I hadn’t even imagined. UI similar to what I have.
[List of characters]
[Ryu Gun-woo (Park Moon-dae): I’m shocked by you (∑//ㅁP;)]
X-bar.
I barely opened my mouth.
“what’s this.”
“Well, where should I begin?”
He bumps his finger on his chin. And as if lost in thought, the focus is blurred.
* * *
A few months ago.
Inside Cheongryeo’s private jet that crossed the Pacific Ocean.
[Hyung, this is more… .]
Shin Jae-hyeon saw it before he fell unconscious on the plane.
The actual thing called the ‘status window’.
‘Did he look like that?’
There wasn’t much excitement, but what I saw next was a bit problematic.
It was because I saw Kwon Hee-seung being absorbed through the windows as if the graphics were disintegrating while the numerous holograms floated as if they had been broken.
‘hmm.’
That could be a bit difficult.
When the accident came back to the end of that thought, I was already in the practice room with Ryu Gun-woo.
– damn it!
-haha.
And for a while, thinking that this might be a ‘restart’ that eventually came back, I diversified my plans while contemplating various possibilities.
But in the end, he was persuaded by Ryu Gun-woo, or Park Moon-dae.
-okay.
-Let’s go back to your dog Kongi.
It was an opponent who had nothing to blame as an ally. It is not that there was no dissatisfaction with Park Mun-dae’s selection of colleagues, but that level was taken into account.
But there was one incident before that.
When he returned home to accurately grasp the situation here.
Because one of the many restarts happened something that never happened.
[Task has arrived!]
“… ?”
A status window will pop up.
But he’s not a player.
[GM: Welcome to Shin Jae-hyeon.]
Server: Kwon Hee-seung (Stable)
GM: Shin Jae-hyeon
Player: ■■■
“Oh.”
Shin Jae-hyun smiled faintly.
‘It’s a variable.’
And the number of cards increased.
* * *
“Yes. Kwon Hee-seung is currently displayed on the server.”
“… … .”
“There was no particular benefit to me. I can just keep track of my junior’s progress… degree.”
I pressed my forehead.
As if reminiscing, Cheong-rye lowered her head to the side and smiled.
“and… A bit of an auxiliary ability?”
“you.”
I opened my mouth at the passing memory.
“I can’t believe that Kim Rae-bin came out of the teammate selection.”
“Well, as experience points accumulate, the probability can be adjusted for a short time.”
Damn.
I bit my tongue.
‘I could have been suspicious.’
Isn’t the first friend given in the game tutorial a real live account?
Usually GM.
This is the game master account.
“This… hide?”
I grabbed him by the collar. The clothes are gripped as if they are about to be ripped off.
“I have no choice but to give you the same answer.”
“what?”
But the guy didn’t even move and looked down.
“I should have already told you that I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you would do this.”
“… !”
“With this hologram, things like server replacement were impossible.”
“Then”
“Then the remaining effects are obvious. You’re inefficient because you care about the meaning of the server… .”
Cheong-ryeo muttered calmly.
“I was anxious and doubtful about what I was going to do throughout the process.”
“… … .”
“That’s why it’s better to keep your mouth shut and wait until you get the target. It won’t be too late to go back and say it.”
“So I followed your words.”
“Rather than that, they say they were persuaded by the junior’s words.”
The guy laughed.
“I heard that if you ride the target, you will have the option to go back after seeing the ending.”
“… … .”
“Oh, I told you to tell me everything.”
I looked at Cheongryeo. He laughs like he’s frowning.
“that’s right. there was something more They said this would give me something in the form of a salary.”
He sends a hologram forward to colonel me in front of me.
[GM Ending Reward: Companion Choice]
“… !”
Wait, if this happens… .
“So I’ve been thinking about it all along.”
I had a hunch what the next word was.
“If I could wait here until Kongi was born and choose this option… .”
The guy narrows his eyes.
“I have nothing to regret. It’s a bit of a turnaround.”
Damn.
“Think of your juniors too. If you can inherit everything of value, isn’t this place better?”
He gently removed my hand from his neck.
“Originally, I was going to just follow your opinion, but now that it has turned out like this, I want to hear more about your story.”
He sits down and rests his chin on his chin and asks seriously.
“What do you think of this possibility?”
“… You”
“Ah, the schedule is fine. You can just keep stopping. I’m almost using it for the first time… There is no specific time limit.”
He laughed and looked away from the status window.
“So tell me. Continue until we both fully agree to a conclusion.”
“… … .”
“Because the remaining time is infinite, haha!”
X feet.
There is a sense of tension as if stepping on a landmine. As a biological reaction, a cold sweat runs down your spine.
‘still.’
I opened my mouth.
* * *
‘What?!’
The large moon, which became the status window of the main body of Park Moon-dae, screamed and spun around in the world of consciousness. The place where the madman stopped completely lost its liveliness.
And it was right before Season 2 of Kidnapping was aired!
‘Ahhhh what’s wrong… ??’
Then I realized.
what?
The fact that he, who shared his vision with Ryu Gun-woo, came out as if he was out of body before he knew it.
‘Uh uh uh?’
He broke through the ceiling of Suuk Wishes’ dorm and soared over Seoul.
‘What is this?’
Why is this happening? No, I had to go back! I couldn’t leave my brother alone.
It was the moment when he made up his mind and tried to crumple his consciousness again somehow.
glitter was seen.
‘… uh?’
gold circles.
Like Dorothy’s yellow road, glittering things were making a path in the air.
And at the end of it… The status window, he knew instinctively.
is an error indication
‘and.’
You can see this because it is in the ‘Progress Pause’ state.
For a moment he was almost taken aback by the intense flash of error, but he soon noticed something.
What can be called an error here is an anomalous recovery of memory so that the system does not catch it… .
‘Seonahyeon!’
Realizing that, another possibility pops into his head.
Could it be that he is an error while his abilities have been expanded?
‘I don’t know! Let’s do it!’
With a free consciousness, he ran to Seon Ah-hyun.
And once tried!
[Please help my brother!]
“Uh uh uh… ?!”
On the way to Incheon International Airport.
Seon Ah-hyun gets out of the car in a panic at the world that suddenly stopped, and is frightened by the sudden appearance of a hologram.
