Debut or Die

Episode 541

Shin Jae-hyun raised his head.

The scenery of the snowy DMZ was very beautiful whether or not there were unexploded bombs hidden underneath.

However, it was rarer than expected for him to serve outdoors against the backdrop of the scenery. Because he was assigned to the command and control room.

Originally, it seems that he intended to entrust the Panmunjom guidance work as a special job, but Cheong-rye speculated that it seems to have been excluded for the same reason ‘because of possible incidents and accidents’.

And, perhaps in a few decades, a calm and regular day passed.

It was unusual.

In fact, people think show business is very dynamic and fresh every day, but humans are creatures of habit.

Especially for those who do the same thing over and over again and have everything manualized.

In that sense, the docile Haru, who had nothing to control and squeeze, did not fit well with Cheongryeo’s thinking structure.

Still, this daily life was quite interesting. Except for the downside of not being able to be with your dog.

And it wasn’t long before that need was satisfied to some extent.

“Hello, senior.”

A guest has arrived.

With the news of my dog Kongi.

He smiled as he faced Moondae Park walking towards him with a shy face.

* * *

“Long time no see.”

I looked at the person who came to meet me and was silent for a moment.

I expected it, but it was the first time I had received permission to enter and exit so loudly.

‘In the first place, it’s almost the first time I’ve come to visit someone.’

Even this neighborhood only received visits on Sundays, so I almost grinded my teeth trying to keep up with the schedule.

“You must have had a hard time coming.”

“no.”

I’m like a private in the way I speak. Even the guy invited me kindly.

“Even sightseeing?”

“it’s okay.”

I’m not interested in the tour of the JSA museum that this guy guides me through. I didn’t recommend it again because I just said it.

We just walked slowly through a quiet space and entered an equally quiet room.

“sit down please.”

It was a space that was often used for meeting. However, there were no other visitors at the table other than me.

“It’s a place with few people.”

“yes.”

If there are a lot of civilians on the armistice line, that’s strange too.

I sat down and took out what I had prepared.

“Take it.”

It was a paw stamp with dog footprints engraved on it.

What is that guy’s pet dog… Anyway, it seems that it was made while doing outdoor activities with clay, but it was not a prohibited item anyway.

The guy’s expression softened slightly.

“thank you.”

Picking up a small ornament in the shape of a disk with hardened dog tracks, the guy swept across the surface quite gently.

“… … .”

I don’t think I did anything bad.

However, I did not come simply to show the condition of Cheongryeo dog’s paws. It doesn’t matter if you just text it.

But before we get into the main topic, let’s talk about something that needs to be dealt with quickly… .

It’s about work.

“Come to think of it, I met T-Holic senior.”

“yes.”

“T-holic seniors said that they built a company in cooperation with LeTi.”

“Yes.”

Cheong-rye naturally nodded as if nothing had happened, then smiled and said.

“Now, when we really make a comeback, we don’t have to worry about overlapping schedules. haha.”

“… … .”

okay. It’s led by this bastard.

I did, but he was a terrible guy. If a rival from the past is helpful, will it be swallowed up and seen?

‘He’s done a lot before enlisting.’

Besides, Cheong Ryeo’s words were not over.

“Well, I also made a small event in the process. You already know this well, don’t you?”

“… event?”

“yes. You saw it as an article.”

I realized like lightning.

‘Knight event.’

The case that T-Holic Testa is involved in and deserves to be published as an article… .

-I heard that Eter officials cursed at Testa?

This is the ‘Testa Transcript’ incident by the Ether staff.

“… T-Holic senior made that event.”

Cheong-rye did not answer and only laughed, but in reality it was no different from an affirmation.

I swallowed my saliva.

‘I thought a competitive rookie did it.’

Was it T-Holic?

“Yes. It would have been fun for you, too.”

“… … .”

In terms of whether or not Testa benefited from that incident, it did.

I was wondering what kind of dog benefit this is. It was as if someone had suddenly stuck an iced cider down his throat.

But maybe what Testa saw was a reflective gain, and from T-Holic’s point of view… He was deliberately trying to overturn the man in Wonderhole.

‘They diverted their attention so that they couldn’t do useless tricks on their independence.’

In other words, by chance, they turned around and took advantage of each other.

want this

‘I feel like I’ve become an evildoer’,

but Wonder Hall did such a bad thing like a real evildoer.

And this guy also seemed to be trying to rip off something while reminding me of ‘the gains Testa made’ on purpose.

So I made a reasonable response.

It means to take off the pretense.

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“Oh, I bet.”

Can’t you not split the thread as if you’re giving it over?

Surprisingly, Chung-rye quickly changed her tone.

“But I’m sure you didn’t come here to tell me this.”

“… … .”

“I think I came because I wanted to ask you something. tell me.”

okay. have a purpose

And there are many things to ask.

First of all, I wonder how this guy can still use the way he speaks naturally that makes him angry after completing the training center… .

No, I’ve been using that tone for at least a few decades, so it’s only natural that it won’t change in just a month or two.

Realizing that I didn’t need these set-up questions, I decided to throw a fastball right away.

let’s go clean

“I think I talked about system fragmentation last time.”

“hmm.”

I wasn’t too hesitant to bring this up. It’s such a ridiculous story anyway, so even if someone overheard it, it would be a game story.

Still, as a courtesy, I lowered my voice, and feedback came in right away.

“Say it comfortably. There is CCTV, but there is no recording device, and no one is listening.”

Or it would be X together, but it wouldn’t be a lie.

If so.

“okay.”

I immediately stopped talking and went on to talk about this system fragment.

The building collapse mission failed for me because I had the debris. I made the company system with the remaining debris.

It’s a story I’ve already explained, but I’ll summarize it one more time to fit the flow.

And the conclusion is this.

-You must have fragments like that time bomb.

When I let go of my words, the expression on the guy’s expression became insensitive as the story progressed.

Until you end up doing something like this.

“so?”

“I will try to collect the fragments from you now.”

“… … .”

“Because conditions are met and it is possible now.”

If I didn’t do it now, I didn’t know when the fragments on this guy would explode due to mission failure.

‘And this guy without a status window has a pretty high probability that that day will be the last day of his life.’

Wouldn’t this guy want to be hit by an absurd sudden death without being able to make a comeback? Honestly, it’s a proposition I’m underestimating.

However, Chung-rye frowned.

“I think it was induced.”

what?

“Raise the grade, give missions… It doesn’t look any different from what we’ve been doing.”

“… … .”

“Think carefully. I must have said it several times.”

don’t use the system

well i agree

“But if you don’t, you will die.”

“It is the same.”

“yes.”

I sighed.

“So shouldn’t the one who doesn’t do it first have to avoid it more?”

“… … .”

Haven’t you already witnessed and experienced how much a person can be X? No, I’m trying to write a workaround.

It won’t be necessary to say more between people who know what happens when the system’s status is abnormal or the mission is not handled.

And I did come up with some countermeasures.

‘If you look at the logic… Whether it’s steer memory or whatever, that singularity won’t happen anymore.’

As long as the operating principle of the system is ‘I will make me use more’, I directly control that part through regular use, so there is nothing to bother me with ‘system update’.

And best of all, I’ll turn off the system as soon as I receive it.

“So you’re willing to take the risk unilaterally?”

“It’s not like that.”

I put on my handcuffs.

“I need to make a few promises.”

“Tell me.”

“first.”

I said seriously.

“I don’t refer to Orbits with words like ‘LeTi family.’”

“… … .”

“Of course, all similar words like family cooking together are prohibited.”

The following was also important.

“The second T-Holic entertainment will not appear as a group.”

“I don’t know what that means.”

“There is such a thing.”

No matter how much I think about it, I think I will really push for those people’s personalities.

I continued talking while looking at the guy who looked a little bewildered.

“The last… Retrieve this and fully cooperate with me in solving what should happen to me.”

“… … .”

This was the natural thing to do as a human being.

And from my experience so far, I knew how this guy would react.

“is it so.”

yes.

I immediately nodded.

“Under the condition that you stop using the system the moment you retrieve this fragment.”

“of course.”

Even if you don’t say anything, I’m ready to return it to my belongings right away.

I nodded and called the status window.

“Then do it.”

“is it so.”

Is it because of a similar situation?

It reminded me of the time when I heard about deleting the system on this guy’s private plane.

However, the difference was also clear.

At that time, he was interested in it, so he even provided a private plane to watch it.

But right now, neither of these guys here have any interest, but I’m going to press this to prevent the worst.

‘after.’

“What is your wish?”

“hmm?”

“It is a necessary procedure.”

“hmm.”

The guy seemed to think briefly, then said:

“I hope you take good care of Kongi.”

“… … .”

what… It’s better than a wish like ‘Testa perish’.

And as expected, a pop-up popped up in front of my eyes.

[Check the owner of the ‘■■■ Fragment’!]

[Register < Wish >]

As expected.

Cheongryeo had fragments.

‘Should I say that I’m glad I responded to this wish?’

And since all company rating criteria have already been satisfied, the result pop-up immediately followed without a complicated base process.

[Reconfirm the owner of ‘■■■ Fragment’]

Do you want to absorb ‘■■■ Fragment (1 / 4)’ into ‘Company Use’?

※It takes a certain amount of time.

So far it’s as expected.

“Can you see?”

“I can see it.”

After confirming that there is nothing wrong, I immediately responded to the status window.

‘Absorb.’

Immediately, the light from the pop-up lightly circled Cheongnyeol and went back.

Cheong-rye watched the phenomenon with cool eyes.

[‘■■■ Fragments (1 / 4)’ recovered!]

Even here, as expected.

‘after.’

I was briefly relieved.

But what came next was something that hadn’t been seen before.

[‘■■■ Fragments’ (4 / 4) Full Check]

[■■■ Completion]

Then, the black paint on ‘■■■’ peels off as if it were being ripped off… The correct name is revealed.

[Complete the system]

and the explanation at the bottom.

[Reboot begins]

* * *

Cha Yoo-jin raised his head.

He was the kind of guy who had saved a strange cat from a fire in Spain just a few weeks ago, and didn’t think much of it.

Park Moon-dae, who gave a contradictory review of ‘It was good, but it was dangerous’, was only used for the purpose of protesting when giving a low-salt diet.

‘Actually, it wasn’t to the extent that I couldn’t eat it.’

How nice it is to be in an environment where you can be a little pushy.

He opened the refrigerator while humming and found Kim Rae-bin drinking apple juice at the table in front of him.

“Did Moondae hyung do it for you?”

“that’s right!”

Cha Yu-jin felt a bit sad, but soon brushed it off.

Let’s say it directly!

“Where did you go?”

“You went out to meet a friend. You looked busy, so I shouldn’t ask you a troublesome favor… .”

“OK!”

Cha Yoo-jin went into her room and lay down on the bed giggling before Kim Rae-bin, who had stopped talking, chased after him in anger.

Then, all of a sudden, I felt a strange sensation.

‘What is this?’

The unknown was annoying.

He was quite optimistic and even slightly optimistic, but he was not devoid of a sense of reality.

I shouldn’t have had anything to worry about now.

‘Everything is satisfactory.’

But why are you so anxious?

If only he could have observed the spirit of Park Moon-dae at one of the JSA’s 50 km away.

-Such a fucking foot!

would have known the answer.

[—-]

Park Moon-dae was having another experience of the current world breaking apart.

The system was bursting.

… … no no!

‘it’s me.’

It was Park Moon-dae himself who exploded!

I tried to hold on to it, but in a mental sense, as if it was ‘pulled out’, the perception began to crush.

Something out of specification has occurred.

Park Mun-dae did not delay and called the helper who was waiting just in case.

– Big moon!

But there was no response.

Park Mun-dae tried to keep his spirits up by repeating all the swear words he could use.

However, the situation was already out of control.

It seemed that the number of people was increasing like crazy.

[Start of reboot]

Even the status window gradually faded and distorted.

-… !

For a moment, it felt like the person sitting across from me grabbed my arm, but soon that sensation disappeared like a grain of sand.

And the area around the status window was also distorted, and the color began to change rapidly as if being sucked in.

Like looking out the window on a ridiculously fast high-speed train.

‘X feet.’

Mundae Park cursed again and tried to regain control.

‘stop!’

I had the absurd feeling of pulling a running train with my bare hands to stop it.

but moment.

[-]

Like a lie, he barely held on to the situation.

I was finally looking at the static world from a fixed perspective.

– Heo Eok.

It was seen in the midst of tension, as if the consciousness of the road would be sucked in if you were a little vigilant.

‘Where is it?’

It was night around.

outdoor.

rooftop.

… person.

On a cool winter night, he saw In-young standing on the rooftop, leaning on the railing and looking down at the building.

“… … .”

A familiar man in a coat.

Cheongrye.

-… !!

Park Moon-dae reflexively recalled the scene he had seen several years ago.

The memory of the first restart of Cheongryeol, who received it as a reward after clearing the ‘status abnormality’.

‘It’s the same place.’

It was as if his consciousness was barely hanging on to that memory. But… .

With an almost animal sense, he also realized the difference with memory.

‘There are no cigarettes.’

The cigarette Cheongryeo was smoking at the time was invisible in Inyeong’s hand right in front of her.

And the electric signboard that Cheongryeo recalled in her memory and said, ‘Originally, there was an advertisement for VTIC, but it doesn’t appear anymore.’

there.

[ with VTIC]

VTIC ads are still hanging.

Brilliant colors shimmered on the screen.

At some point his group still isn’t doomed.

To be precise, a point in a certain ‘repetition of restart’.

-… … .

Park Moon-dae asked himself.

Is this ‘what number’ is this?

and.

‘Why am I here?’

what the hell happened
