Insanely-Talented Player - Chapter 65
Episode 65
A few days later, in a white interrogation room.
“please. “This is a formality process, so we ask for your cooperation.”
“No, isn’t this a Go-Stop game where you just make a fuss anyway? “Then is there even a need to talk like this
?”
“This is so that the government can officially submit Yoosung’s mental evaluation result of ‘no abnormalities’ as evidence.”
In response to the question of Yoosung, who was wearing handcuffs, a man dressed as a doctor spoke as if begging.
“Is the recording running now?”
“That’s right.”
“Then let’s get started. “Aren’t we going to use scissors and put it all together anyway?”
“Now, please relax first. And please say the word and
answer whatever immediately comes to mind.”
Yoosung nodded at those words.
“hero.”
“Jerk the.”
“No, that’s not it…
“You told me to answer right away, right?”
“That… … made it easier for people to hear it
…
Yoosung shrugged his shoulders without saying a word.
“hero.”
“Saint.”
“great.”
“Everyone except…are idiots.”
“Well, aren’t you going to use scissors anyway?”
“Then let’s move on.”
The doctor spoke again.
“Hero King.”
“A lightning rod for assholes.”
“tower.”
“A gathering place for assholes.”
“Why again? Do you want to watch me suck my fingers and then hit the 8th tier top break and blow up the earth and the universe?”
“…Let’s change the counseling method a little. Just answer me as if you were having a normal conversation.”
Yoosung shrugged his shoulders.
“How about your life as a player?”
“It ended a long time ago, but I’m doing it for the money.”
“Are you having negative thoughts?”
“I always have negative thoughts.”
“Then why did you give up on conquering the tower and cause a tower break? “ You said it was to protect both worlds.”
“Oh, that’s right…
“Actually, even if you were being sarcastic, didn’t you make a conscientious decision in the face of the player’s mission and moral dilemma?”
The doctor interrupted and asked again. As if he was begging me to simply say yes to those words.
Yooseong was silent for a moment at those words. The emotions disappeared from his face for a moment and he looked at the doctor blankly.
“Based on my experiences with veterans treating PTSD, I understand that many players are suffering just like them and need to be treated appropriately. Furthermore, in order for Mr. Yoosung to faithfully carry out the player’s mission…
“Do you think we are crazy?” With an extremely inorganic expression, it
was as if I was looking into his heart. I could feel the doctor’s agitation in front of that expression. It’s like being locked in a room with a psychopathic criminal and facing them defenseless.
And before long, Yoosung started laughing hysterically, shaking his shoulders.
“What’s so funny?”
“I just thought of a joke.”
“Can you tell me?”
After hearing those words, Yoosung stopped laughing and stood up. Not even paying attention to the handcuffs that were restraining his arms.
“You won’t understand anyway.”
“It’s really hard to pretend to be crazy.”
“You worked hard, you crazy bastard. There’s nothing to worry about since it matches the assortment anyway. “If you cooperate in vain, you’ll end up talking nonsense and talking about what to do with psychological treatment.”
As soon as Yoosung left the interrogation room, Master Park, who was leaning next to him, opened his mouth. Yoosung smiled bitterly and stretched out his arms.
Breaking the handcuffs themselves wouldn’t be difficult. However, when Yoosung held out his arms, Master Park obediently removed Yoosung’s handcuffs.
“We have heard from the United States and France that they will actively support the heroic king’s actions. “Our government’s position is similar, and Russia and China are a little noisy, but their noise is just a matter of a day or two.”
“Then, now that things have been resolved properly, can I just go back to the tower?”
“Oh my, you bastard. That’s not all. Look how desperately the saint has defended you during the few days you have been imprisoned. “As soon as something happens, you throw everything away and just run around in all directions and file complaints from town to town.”
Master Park spoke with a wide smile and Yoo Seong kept his mouth shut.
“I guess I should thank the saint separately.
”
“Hey, you bastard. “Not everyone in the world is your enemy.”
Yoosung laughed quietly at Master Park’s words. After laughing, I opened my mouth.
“【Deck Page 2 —《Plague Assassin》】 Setting replacement equipment installed in bulk.”
There was no time for Master Park to say anything.
“Accept the 2nd awakening quest.”
“Hey hey °1 shi］kiya! Not yet my words….”
After being enveloped in the light,
the King of Heroes wearing the blade of cruelty and the black book = ‘Baptism of Darkness’ was there.
[Would you like to enter the Tower of Second Awakening? Y/ N]
“I will enter.”
Without any hesitation, Yoosung answered. Before he knew it, his body disappeared like a pile of ashes. He
had reached level 70 and it was time to prove his qualifications before conquering the 8th tier tower. The
king of heroes and the contractor of the clown lord.
Just before that . As a court jester who caused a tower break and was overflowing with provocations from the world, along with all the gifts given to him by kings, a song was playing. It was Frank C. Natra’s ‘That’s Life’.
Now
. As always, it was a strange place filled with mirrors all around, and the mirrors reflecting the shooting stars were turning their heads and smiling like separate creatures. — Welcome, a thousand faces, a thousand faces
. A child with a talent.
And then a voice said
– Again, a new face and a new talent are needed.
“No matter how many, it’s not enough. I’m the only sane person in this world where there are only these crazy kids.”
Yoosung replied coldly.
— Okay, child. Raise your head.
Hearing the voice, Yoosung raised his head. In a world full of mirrors, there were three mirrors that were shining in a unique way. —
Here are three mirrors where you can move forward . There are many ways out,
said the Clown Lord, giggling.
— Which way out you choose is up to you, and there is no failure or right answer. And when you decide which way to go according to your will, you will see a new talent in the mirror. You will get a face.
Following those words, Yoosung raised his head.
And the first mirror flickered and a message appeared.
“A mirror of truth and despair that can reveal the purpose of the monarchs and the reality of this game.
” The second mirror flickered.
“A mirror of power and ignorance w that can obtain the power of purity itself.”
And the last mirror flickered.
“A mirror that can bring all the people and players of the world to their knees and make them absolutely obey.” “A mirror of domination and solitude.”
When most players perform a second awakening, it is not much different from conquering a high-tier tower. They fight and win through ridiculously harsh and grueling tests provided by their overlords. It is safe to say that it is an awakening quest in an RPG game.
However, the test that the Clown Lord gave to Yoosung was not that easy to understand. Or rather, in a way, it could be said to be strangely easy.
It was just forcing a decision, and there were no right answers or failures. Just like it had been up to now.
Yoosung was silent. After the silence, he took a step.
Huh!
The scenery of the mirrors was distorted in their own way, and there he was, facing Yoosung. There were three hero kings,
each wearing a white and black clown mask.
“Why are you so serious? There is nothing in this world that needs to be taken seriously.”
The shooting star in the Mirror of Truth and Despair cackled mockingly,
“Is this world really worth saving? No matter how much I try and save the world, what meaning is there in my actions?”
The meteor in the mirror of power and ignorance asked back,
“Under my rule and system, this planet is more peaceful than ever. It’s just that the people asked for it and I lived up to their expectations.”
Lastly, in the mirror of domination and solitude, Yoosung spoke:
Realizing the truth, but despairing, gaining power, but being ignorant, dominating, but being lonely.
There is no correct answer or failure, and no right or wrong.
“I am obsessed with the power of a manly man.”
Therefore, there was no hesitation in the path the meteor had to take.
The meteor moved towards the mirror of power and ignorance. As if entering the world in the mirror, the meteor’s body passed beyond the mirror and was filled with mirrors. The world was enveloped in silence and darkness.
Frank Sinatra’s song was playing in the silence.
At that time, the chairman’s office on the top floor of the KPA building.
“To stop the king of heroes’ rampage… with some top rankers. “It is true that countries are secretly cooperating, except for the fact that the revelations were overly distorted and exaggerated at the top of the A match,” Georg continued in front of Lee Seong-ho, president of the KPA. “Russia within the
organization
. It is also true that there are hardliners, led by China, who advocate for the removal of the King of Heroes. However, it is also true that this world is maintained through the activities of the King of Heroes. Therefore, we must suppress his unexpected actions and work hard to prevent the world from being terrified. “For the sake of order in the world, the cooperation of KPA, the largest player organization in this country, is more urgent than anything else.”
“We promise to cooperate to the best of our ability.”
At those words, Georg smiled businesslike, shook hands, and then turned his back. It was then,
“Can I ask you a question?”
“Tell me.”
“What do you think are the chances of successfully completing this season without the King of Heroes’ performance?”
Georg was silent for a moment. Then, thinking of the 16th tier tower hanging over the moon, he answered without hesitation,
“0%.”
The truth that everyone doesn’t want to accept, but has no choice but to accept. The
only thing that supports this world is the king of player heroes.
To enter the tower of tier 8 or higher, there is no need to go to the tower with your own two feet.
That’s it . Since you can’t enter the tower that extends over the dark universe with both feet, what you had to do wasn’t difficult.
“View the list of towers you can enter.” A hologram window appeared along with the command.
[Please select the tower you wish to enter!]
. Tower of the Hero
(omitted)
. Tower of the Zombie Apocalypse (recommended!)
‘Recommended.’
With those words, Yoosung touched the information on the tower, and the message continued:
[Tower of the Zombie Apocalypse]
[8-tier survival format, full of extreme biochemical threats. Minimum of 1 and maximum of 5 players allowed to enter. Stores available]
［Strategy goal: Survive until the designated date］
［Special note: Three players have already entered the tower. 3 hours until entry deadline…
Zombie apocalypse. Just like when I faced Natasha Ivanova earlier. It’s similar.
Nevertheless, the gap between Tier 5 and Tier 8 is literally the difference between heaven and earth. There are three players who have
entered there before. There are enough players to enter the Tier 8 tower as soon as it is unlocked. It may not be that much.
Still, he didn’t care.
The reward on stage for causing the tower break and unfolding the world against him. And even the reward for the second awakening.
“Receipt all unclaimed rewards.”
Before entering the tower, it was time to open the new talents, faces, and loot from the kings given to the clown.
