Debut or Die - Chapter 414
If you can’t debut, you’ll die if you don’t debut Episode 414 Keundal
who was swallowed up by the system took the initiative by suppressing the ego of the system.
[Wow!]
I grinned, wiping the cold sweat on my chin.
“good job.”
[yes! This works!?]
‘I thought it would be a success even if I just paralyzed the system with an error.’
In fact, the moment you fail, it’s over, so this is no different from gambling. However, he had expressed his opinion that he would do it himself.
-[Brother that… Plan B.]
-[If the time comes to write that down… Why don’t I transfer the error myself?]
And I also admitted to some extent.
Anyway, if this guy returns to reality with the system remaining, all that remains is the absorption ending.
‘It just becomes a status window.’
In the first place, the crazy idea of blowing up the system on the plane also played a part in predicting the future that this guy would lose his body and become a status window. I won’t deny it.
Back in reality, he needed something else to live as Ryu Gun-woo.
For example, completely disconnected from the system.
‘Or else.’
– Did the system self-destruct?
Remove it this time.
I swallowed and asked quietly.
“How are you?”
[Uh… .]
The guy who looked at his body in bewilderment and made the surroundings wriggle as if the surroundings were distorted raised his head as if to confirm.
And those holographic eyes suddenly glowed darkly.
[I think I can do anything.]
“… !”
As his body thickens, the ambiguous world suddenly becomes clear.
[If it’s in here… Nothing is unknown, nothing is impossible, and if you can compose properly, all your wishes will flow naturally… .]
muttered. The background swirls around him as if sucked in.
A star rises.
[…] … Hyung, hey, hyung can do whatever he wants.] I
can’t do this.
“If you’re here, you know it’s Testa’s dissolution, right? Even if the roads from ‘Magical Boy’ to ‘Savior’ are left the same, it won’t be as impressive as when you first saw them.”
[…] ! Of course I know! no what the… … .]
The hologram sparks and the expression returns to Daedal’s face.
‘I never thought I’d spit out a sound like the first impression I’ve ever seen with my mouth.’
It’s funny that I had to come to my senses with something like this, but it worked, so it’s okay.
If I can’t stick with that guy, I’ll die. Seeing Testa’s comeback was my only pleasure in public life.
‘… I just remembered doing something similar.’
I almost inadvertently recalled my office worker days watching Steer, so the situation was more urgent than that.
[Ah, this is strange! I feel like I just can’t control myself. Wow, such power… .]
Anyway, it could be stained, so I had to finish it quickly. Maybe the system will recover from errors and come up.
“Okay, let’s do it quickly. Do you remember what I said?”
[Yes!]
The final plan is simple.
‘Self-destruct sequence.’
Blow up the system like this.
Of course, if you leave it in that state, the big moon may be affected, so we will put some procedures in between.
[I sent it, hyung!]
T-ring.
A status window pops up in front of me.
[Player: Park Moon-dae (Ryu Gun-woo)]
[Are you sure you want to delete the game?]
[OK]
The self-destruct launch button that you just press OK without making any other options on purpose.
‘after.’
To be honest, it’s cool.
And there is one more status window that pops up at the same time. I turned my gaze to what floated in front of me.
[GM: Shin Jae-hyeon]
[Are you sure you want to disconnect from the server?]
[Confirm]
“It’s you.”
“hmm.”
Cheong-rye glances at the hologram big moon and says.
“Do you need to prepare your mind?”
“no.”
You’ve already done enough, so just press it.
As soon as he hears my answer, he puts his hand on the confirmation button without hesitation.
Took.
Then the light flickers on the world and cracks.
rattle.
‘Looks like it’s about to collapse.’
A crack appears in the background without a sound, and the moment when it seems that the view is shaking and collapsing dangerously as if it will collapse at any moment.
[Are you sure you want to designate a new Server?]
“Don’t touch that.”
“I am overly suspicious.”
Anyway, the guy quietly put his hands down.
‘All that’s left is… .’
one.
I raised my hand above my status window floating on a mirror-like background just before I was about to be destroyed.
It was then.
[Pause.]
“… ?”
A pop-up appeared.
‘A big moon?’
But he’s over there… … .
[Hyung??]
Oh, that’s right.
this is a system
It seems that the situation of the two selves has changed as the big moon took over the system and bounced off.
In the form of the system ego parasitic on the status window.
‘uh. bye.’
I ignore it and try to press the button, but it persistently pops up on top of the button.
[The system saved you from dying. You know that. You originally gave up the rest of your life on your own.]
[Everything you have now comes from the opportunity the system gave you. Think of the opportunities you’ve had and the achievements you’ve achieved thanks to your not dying.]
Look at this bastard.
In the face of the elimination crisis, he appealed for empathy very plausibly as if his mouth was exploding, and he said,
“Hey.”
I said with a smile.
“The one who gave me a chance was originally a good person, and you’re talking about how you only used X-balls.”
If you don’t do it, you’ll end up saying that the guy who sucked energy sweetly for several years is talking as if he did some charity work.
It’s a status ailment and killing it once.
[Tongue hyung?] I
didn’t tell you so stay still.
I sent a gesture to the big moon. The popup is updated.
[Irrational idea. Foolish.]
Do you introduce yourself?
‘Did this bastard change his strategy?’
I’m wondering if he’s trying to kill time by making me pissed off. If so.
I opened my mouth as if to respond to the pop-up.
and shouted
“Big moon. now!”
[Yes!]
At that moment, the hologram of the big moon overflowed with more glitches, and soon the shape collapsed and disappeared.
[Wow!]
Giving up control of the system created by error, escaping, and returning to my status window. [
What
now?
“bye.”
I broke through the popup and hit the button.
puck!
Delete game.
The pop-up shakes.
[I’m Gyeol■ Sa■ Ji ■■ … ]
But that’s all.
pop!
A humanoid in a system full of glitches explodes.
And the cracked world also exploded.
A transcendent sight where tens of thousands of pieces break into the air and soar.
Even an enormous after-storm that blows a step late.
“Whoops.”
The system that makes up this world has been shattered. A tremendous torrent of energy overflowed in all directions as if to shatter everything.
Pieces shattered. All that remains is emptiness.
I looked back at Cheongnyeol. His status window crackled and fried.
Same with mine.
“success.”
When I said that, all my senses disappeared.
hook.
white
[——-]
Static.
and.
“… basin?”
Slowly and bluntly, I heard a sound as if my hearing was paralyzed by an intense impact.
“Mundae!”
“… !”
I opened my eyes.
And the first thing I saw… … .
“I broke the gate!”
“brother!”
“Go, you’ve had a lot of trouble, Moondae-ya… !”
They’re the guys around.
The members who were talking hard about plan B and materializing it were looking into my face as if they were watching something.
me really
“uh. Calm down.”
“Yeah!!”
“You really thought it would be a big deal because the chat window burst in the middle!”
“Still, I am very fortunate. really… .”
If you stay like this, your ears will burst or your shoulders will fall, or one of the two will rise. I smiled and stood up shaking my head,
“Thank you for your concern.”
If it was real, it would have to be an awards ceremony if airplanes were still a system world… It was neither.
“Here… … .”
… Ryu Kun-woo’s officetel.
To be precise, it is the officetel where Keun-dal, who won the lottery with Ryu Kun-woo’s body, lives.
And outside the living room window… The place where the sunset of the fantastic ‘Magical Boy’ sets.
where I was last time.
[It’s an image world I created!]
It was the world of images that Ryu passed through when he went back to Park Moon-dae.
The appearance of the big moon protruding with a smile is also the same.
It’s the same with a bit of a glitch.
‘then.’
me too… It must be an ambiguous figure that looks like both Park Moon-dae and Ryu Gun-woo.
As expected, Sejin made a fuss as usual.
“Hey, you two look like brothers, sure~”
It seems like it’s to keep calm in a crazy situation, but I like people who listen to it anyway.
[Hehe, thank you!]
I don’t know why.
In any case, the guy who was laughing and laughing soon changed his expression, probably realizing that this wasn’t the time.
[I brought you all here for the purpose of minimizing the shock. Did I bring some system power… Anyway, it worked!]
“Shock?”
[yes. Well, you can choose when you leave.]
The large moon stepped aside.
Then I saw the entrance of the officetel.
-See you later!
The nameplate flashes. It seems that if I go out there, I will return to reality.
[Will you remember what happened here, or will you just forget it or vaguely remember it like a dream?]
“… !”
that… Great service, though.
‘Is there anyone who bothers to forget?’
I thought about it for a while, but I realized once again that this was an overwhelmingly strange situation because I had been living with a status ailment for several years.
If I said something wrong, wouldn’t it be misunderstood that I was taking medicine?
‘It would be easier to forget.’
I will correct it. If it were me, I’d suggest that we all just forget about it… … .
“Of course I want to remember.”
“… … .”
“you’re right. This unique fantasy experience is sure to be a new inspiration.”
“It’s okay not to watch the Limestone movie now. I did it myself.”
Do you just spit it out without worrying?
I was a bit taken aback, but no one hesitated.
“… There is something I really want to remember from what I did here!”
“Oh, that’s amazing. me too.”
Until the last Sun Ah-hyun.
“I think I was able to realize a lot of new things and grow… me too… !”
[All right! Then you can open the door and leave!]
Then, cheers poured out.
“Ah finally!”
“Park Moon-dae, you… When you return, immediately return to the plane and return to your accommodation!”
It’s not my plane, and I honestly don’t know what it would have been like outside… I get it anyway
Ryu Cheng-wu smiles and pats the members on the shoulders.
“Good job. our group.”
“Hi-Hi!”
“Don’t skip Mundaemundae and come here~”
We hugged for a while as if we had won a grand prize or finished the last stage of the tour.
These kids are suffocating.
‘Not even a penguin.’
It must have been funny, but I wonder what it is.
“Let’s go then!”
“Nenep!”
It was the moment when everything seemed ready. However, Kim Rae-bin raised his hand.
“Wait a minute, shouldn’t I be inviting the seniors first?”
“omg.”
His gaze turned back as if he had almost forgotten.
‘Come to think of it, where are the VTIC guys?’
It was strange that I didn’t see it.
So, when I turn my head, I see them from somewhere other than the living room.
VTIC bastards… He was sitting at the kitchen table and looking this way with a smile on his face.
‘what.’
“The testers always get along so it’s really nice to see them, right?”
“that’s right. It’s hard to do that with multiple people.”
Even the way they spoke in real life had changed slightly, as if their real selves had become much stronger than when they debuted as Wishes without any memories.
Still, the guy I’ve been seeing for a year hasn’t disappeared.
Chae-yul walks out of the kitchen and smiles shyly.
“Well, it might be difficult to call you Geonwoo hyung when you go back, but… Would it be okay if I let go? It’s not Mr. Moondae, it’s Moondae!”
“yes.”
“good! You can also speak comfortably. got it?”
That would be difficult because of the age difference.
Still, he smiled brightly, probably taking the silence as an affirmation, and naturally headed to the front door, receiving Testa’s goodbye.
And at the end, he said it out loud.
“Everyone come to play! We had a small number of people so we got bored sometimes. I don’t think I’ll ever forget it during Wishz.”
“It feels like we’ve done a bit of a project group.”
“Wow that’s it. Exactly!”
And the two of them asked Keundal if he could come in here, waved his hand, and naturally disappeared through the front door one by one.
“… … .”
If we go back, we won’t be in the same group, so naturally, we won’t see each other often… Well, since I knew they were useful, it would be okay to contact them.
I leaned against the wall waiting for the rest of the VTIC guys to enter… .
“… … ?”
But why didn’t he come in?
I saw the silk altar standing in front of the porch.
He turned his head and saw Testa and Big Moon, who ran to stop Cha Yu-jin from opening the living room window.
“Eugene, let me ask you a question… .”
“you stupid!”
Perhaps it was because he had already greeted VTIC, but his concentration was completely dispersed.
Judan, who saw this, muttered in a serious tone.
“This timing is just around the corner. I have something to tell you two.”
“hmm?”
The guy said without expression.
“It is true that you both went back to the past. The order seems to be Jaehyun-hyung, followed by juniors.”
“… !!”
What is that baby?
“Why do you think so?”
However, the cast iron shrugged his shoulders as if he was absurd.
“Since you speak so openly from the chat window to daily conversation, anyone with background knowledge can easily guess.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
No, only you knew it yourself.
“Looking at Moondae’s reflexive reaction, it’s true. If so, structurally… Hmm, to avoid being on the same axis as the antagonist by a single difference… … . oh my god.”
The guy who was talking about something to himself listened to say something more with a light sigh.
“that… … .”
But soon, her eyes met with Chung-ryeo, who was staring at her without expression.
And immediately crack.
“I will shut up and enlist.”
“okay.”
“Enough then.”
As if the main stage is running away, he crosses the front door without hesitation. I asked Cheong-ryeo, who was watching it with her arms crossed and leaning against the wall.
I chinned.
“Then you… Go see the dog.”
“It should be.”
He seemed to answer casually, but soon he touched his chin and added a small word.
“… After 10 months?”
And a faint smile seemed to pass by, and he immediately left the front door.
“See you soon.”
leave these words
“… … .”
“Is everyone gone?”
“yes.”
When I turn my head, I see Ryu Cheong-wu and the guys who have taken Cha Yu-jin away.
Liu Chengwu smiled and stood beside him.
“You were supposed to let go.”
“ah.”
It did.
“okay.”
I immediately corrected myself.
Liu Cheng-yu looked surprised for a moment, but then smiled.
“Yes, Moondae. Let us go now.”
The front door opens again.
“As soon as you return, don’t forget to contact us in any situation and return to your accommodation!”
“I will keep that in mind!”
and move your feet
Nothing could be seen outside the door, only light pouring in and stinging my eyes.
But no one hesitated and spurred the door.
and after a while
Whiiying-
“… … !”
I woke up to the sound of engines ringing in my ears.
Cheongryeo’s private plane.
‘ah.’
I turned my eyes. leather seats. ivory walls. glossy kit.
Everything remains the same as before leaving.
And even Gold 2 Hee-seung Kwon, who was asleep in his seat.
I am breathing.
I immediately opened my smartphone and checked the date.
“… … .”
[Saturday, July 9th]
It was the same.
Nothing has changed.
“after.”
I sighed and leaned back in my seat.
Then the guy who had already opened his eyes and was sitting in his seat handed him a glass.
Non-alcoholic Champagne.
“It arrived well.”
“… … okay.”
I snatched the cup that Cheongryeo held out.
So I came back to reality.
