Debut or Die

If you can’t debut, you’ll die. After episode 543,

the status window appears.

Chung-ryo did not respond for several tens of seconds, as if she had been struck by some kind of lightning.

and spit it out like this

“Help.”

The way these words came about is simple.

This is because this guy’s first thought about my pop-up called ‘Ask a question’ was this.

-What is this.

It was kind of like asking a question.

So my answer to that was:

-Help.

It was a brief description of my function.

It’s because there’s no way they’ll believe me even if I tell this bastard that I’m your junior idol from the future… .

‘I’ll just be wary.’

That’s why I approached it with a familiar computer concept.

I was going to say nonsense that it appeared as an algorithm thanks to your 100th restart, but I quit because I thought I crossed the line. Instead just… I said it happened spontaneously without my knowledge.

And even now, I’m going to answer this guy’s question in a very kind way, “Are you really helpful?”

Like this.

[Of course.]

[This is help to help you resolve your status abnormality.]

It was bullshit.

Shall I speak frankly? Let’s say I help him and succeed in getting VTIC to win the grand prize this time.

But in reality, that didn’t happen… Right now, in VTIC, there is no member who has created something like my own little devotional hangout.

And the reality Cheong-rye, who was serving in the military, whom I had just met, said that she had never seen her own status window.

Originally, it means that Cheongryeo has no memory of meeting me, who is currently in the status window. and… .

‘… No matter what I do here, it won’t change the experience of Cheongryeo in reality.’

Isn’t this what Keun-dal already confirmed when he became Ryu Gun-woo and suffered from a condition that would kill him if he couldn’t serve as a public servant?

What I did there as the status window of the big moon in reverse did not change my future. Bae Se-jin’s father’s drug report. It’s like sending an email to an alumnus of Park Moon-dae.

On the contrary, I only knew that I had solved these incidents that I thought were coincidences.

In other words, there is no time paradox.

It was impossible to change the past and affect the future.

So, maybe this is the virtual memory of the system or something like that. Just like the steer guys.

‘hmm.’

I got a bit bitter and licked my lips.

But why am I trying to stop it from restarting right now… .

‘It’s because of the variables.’

I’m stuck on this guy’s mind right now, who knows what will happen when I restart?

I needed to preserve the status quo as much as possible. To assess the situation and gather information.

‘So overall, my help is just… It’s a scam.’

I never thought I would do something like voice phishing.

Still, it was true that he would help, so it was to the benefit of both parties.

[As a help, I will answer all your questions sincerely.]

What follows is a plain truth.

[If you use my skills, at least you won’t suffer any loss.]

Isn’t it true that the work is much easier if there is an instruction manual?

And, as far as I know, Cheong-Ryeo was not the kind of person who would refuse to benefit.

Like a suspicious person, I will be subjected to tremendous questions and experiments.

‘How is it?’

I was fully prepared and waited for his reply.

“… … .”

Cheong-Ryeo stood still, staring at the pop-up I opened.

Then he smiled.

“okay.”

I touched my forehead.

Pretend to believe this bastard.

* * *

The pop-up poured out text messages.

[You can show the status of the members.]

[You can check it now.]

Request did not respond.

In the living room of the dorm, only one person with a gloomy expression fell asleep while fiddling with a game console, and the other two went to the practice room in coats.

Then another pop-up appeared.

[You can also check the characteristics and potential values.]

Cheong-rye didn’t react and walked out of the accommodation casually.

[Not just the current members, but anyone I meet]

“That’s too much.”

The text in the popup has stopped.

“If you need help, come only when I call.”

The hologram did not answer briefly, as if calculating.

And an obedient answer came.

[Yes.]

Chung-rye started her car.

After arriving at the desired place, he continued to walk and reached his destination.

It was the roof of the building I climbed yesterday.

And, exactly as planned, he straddled the railing… .

[Wait.]

[Ya.]

[This baby]

[This crazy guy doesn’t have to restart

. ]

[You have enough time]

“Are you trying to convince me?”

The []

character stopped.

Cheong-ryo leaned against the railing and put on the pod.

“He said it was for help.”

The pop-up froze as if in shock.

Cheong-Ryeo watched the scene slowly as if exploring.

Then, he looked down at the rooftop while adjusting the gloves he was wearing.

“I don’t think so.”

He calculated with a cold head.

Something systematic, kind, verbalized and helpful, like a computer operating system that pops up out of nowhere.

It also appeared at a time when he had experienced enough of a restart and found it very tempting.

It’s like looking for prey.

It was an intelligent being with a will.

And through the process so far, there was one thing that was clearly proven.

Cheong-rye smiled.

“If I restart, it’s in trouble.”

Still, the pop-up popped up the text as if it had been prepared.

[Because using me increases the chance of success this time. And even if it doesn’t work, if you restart it, it wo

n’t happen.] [There’s nothing to lose.]

The request didn’t respond for a moment.

The cold morning air circulated the rooftops.

and.

“haha.”

Laughter rang out.

“The chances are high.”

Cheong-rye smiled and turned her upper body to leave the railing behind her.

And he opened his mouth as if talking to himself.

“What is the most fatal point of the dating rumor controversy?”

[…] … .]

“That means it’s not a crime.”

An advisory response followed.

“It’s a moral shame… . The problem is that non-fans cannot relate to it.”

-I have a collection of nice men and women, but of course they will fall in love. Are there any respectable people at that age who don’t date lol

“Then what about the fans?”

There were no pop-ups.

Cheong-ryeo spoke comfortably into the air.

“I’ll find another controversial topic for that member.”

From skill controversies to bullying within school bullying groups.

I will devote my time passionately to discovering flaws that can be sympathized with by the public and making persuasive writings.

I liked idols a lot, and as much as I knew them well, I was able to create an effective and appropriate sense of controversy.

A reason to take revenge to match the feeling of betrayal. For a just cause.

– Fans turned to anti.

“You could say that in common sense.”

Cheong-rye smiled and continued.

“But even if you make a member voluntarily leave, the risk doesn’t go away.”

Among the individual fans of the member whose dating rumors have erupted, there must be a small number of fans who still support them, but they have an antipathy towards the group itself.

-Forcing them to leave because the dating rumors broke out means real fucking idols don’t have human rights

.

It was especially dangerous in the current position of VTIC, which has a large proportion of overseas fans. Among overseas fans, it’s common for people to dislike idols’ devotion to being controversial.

Of course, Cheongryeo had the ability to plan well and minimize the risk.

But it definitely takes time.

“Well, it will take half a year until public opinion is sorted out. Even if you minimize your losses by touring at that time… .”

His gloved fingers tapped the railing as if counting.

tuk tuk.

And it stopped.

“The chance for a comeback is June at the earliest.”

only once.

There was only one comeback that was meaningfully reflected in the performance of that year.

“The probability of receiving the grand prize with only one activity after a long hiatus due to fatal controversy.”

Cheong-Ri demanded at the pop-up.

“Answer me.”

‘… … .’

“There is an option to just restart without that member.”

Cheong-rye laughed and fixed her gloves.

Then he asked with a pod.

“Why should I invest 359 days worth of time on these slim odds?”

‘… … .’

“Explain.”

Park Moon-dae thought.

it’s X

* * *

Park Moon-dae stopped being a helper concept.

It’s because I don’t believe this kid anyway.

Instead, he answered Cheong-rye moderately honestly.

[Actually, the mission was successful thanks to the person who helped me, but this time I became the help myself.]

“Yes.”

Of course, Chung-rye still didn’t seem to believe it. It was because he didn’t seem to have any intention of asking how the hell that was possible.

‘X feet.’

So Park Moon-dae decided to just go the easiest way.

It was a future knowledge spoiler.

[I know what songs will become popular after this and what concepts will work.]

[If I knew that, it would be worth investing 359 days.]

He was clear about that.

“Keep talking.”

[If you promise not to press that button.]

“… … .”

Of course, what Moondae Park meant was the ‘Delete status window’ button right next to it.

Cheong-rye was silent for a moment, but then answered calmly.

“good.”

Park Moon-dae did not pass.

[Seriously, not even teeth.]

From his point of view, it seemed that Chung-rye had bitten her eyebrows for a moment.

But the answer was still calm.

“okay.”

On the condition that you keep giving useful answers.

After that, Park Mun-dae, who could hear the omitted thoughts, spit out, but no one could see it.

Cheongryeo was the same.

Instead, he quickly organized a few genres, singers, and songwriters from his self-proclaimed ‘helper’ in his head.

It was a pretty decent portfolio.

but.

“The grounds?”

[I don’t think you’ll believe it.]

“Hmm.”

Cheongryeo’s gaze averted.

[!An unauthorized error has occurred]

Do you want to remove the status window (■■■)?]

‘This son of a bitch.’

Park Moon-dae, who received the intention to delete the post if he did not answer properly, eventually answered neatly.

[Did you come from the future?]

“Hmm?”

[I’m your next hitter.]

It was an unrealistic story, but there was a possibility. Because I already have the confidence to go back to the past and restart.

And that explanation of the self-proclaimed ‘help’ also had a meaning.

“I have succeeded.”

It means that one day you will be successful.

Because the next hitter means you’re ending the restart.

‘hmm.’

However, Cheongryeo was not very impressed by the fact itself. Basically, it’s because he didn’t trust the text of that help.

Besides, if you try something repeatedly, one day you will succeed.

In fact, he had patterned the ‘success of VTIC’ itself very stably even before dozens of restarts.

The only problem was the timing of several status ailments and the composition of the members.

Of course, this was a problem that could be solved by trying a few cases.

[…] … .]

And the pop-up did not directly answer yes, but indirectly admitted it.

[I can tell you the members you formed at that time.]

Cheong-rye replied with a smile.

“You didn’t ask.”

The unproven self-proclaimed ‘help’ flattery tried to cross the line.

The popup stopped immediately.

[Yes.]

But Cheong-rye guessed that she seemed to be quite pissed off.

Of course, the pop-up was just text, and since the face was not visible, there was little that could be read.

‘It’s a bit annoying.’

As if he had read his thoughts, a pop-up appeared shyly.

[Should I put emoticons on it?]

“No.”

He wanted to scratch out information the other person didn’t intend to express, not to see useless expressions of emotion.

After the conversation, Cheong-rye stood up.

My mind was in a tidy state.

About this self-proclaimed help.

1. Personality exists.

2. Read thoughts.

3. They lie.

All three confirmed.

And the most important confirmation distance remains.

4. It has utility value.

[Where are you going?]

“I want to use you.”

Now was the beginning to see the ‘provable’ utility.

* * *

To be precise, Cheong-rye, whom I am attached to as a status window, is currently at my company.

To be precise, on the floor where the trainees gathered.

“Are you a bit weak? again!”

“yes!”

A few of the popular songs of this era and VTIC songs with slightly different arrangements than I knew leaked out every time the door to the vocal practice room was opened.

“hello!”

“Hello, senior!”

And he is greeted with respect and awe by those he sees… .

‘next.’

… They are asking me for their status.

Mainly only guys over the age of 20.

And I guessed his intentions.

This bastard was just gathering information for the next restart… .

If you’re over 20 years old, you’ll be in your late teens when you go back, and of course you can use it.

And if there is one more purpose.

‘You’re trying to check my capabilities.’

Looking at the status window now, this guy already has the ’emotion’ trait.

[Emotion (S)]

: Valuable things are rare and trash is everywhere.

-Human Resources Judgment +180%

So, by comparing his own judgment with the stats I show, this ‘helper’ may have an ulterior motive to check if there is any distorted information.

I don’t know exactly which guy this guy chose to debut in the past… .

‘for a moment.’

I looked at his emotional traits again.

what I knew… There was a difference.

[Emotion (S)]

: Valuable things are rare and trash is everywhere.

-Human resource judgment +180%

The grade was S.

‘This makes no sense.’

This is because the characteristic of Cheongryeo in reality was A.

But why is the characteristic grade of S here, which is supposed to be his past?

‘Isn’t that a characteristic that is likely to degenerate by repeating restarts?’

I looked at the status window with doubt for a moment, but there was something else happening outside that caught my eye.

Sigh.

“after.”

excuse me. The guy who comes out of the vocal practice room while brushing his hair… Because he was a guy I knew.

‘It’s a cast iron.’

It was a familiar VTIC member.

Apparently, Lee Cheong-ryo did not include Ju-dan in the team, but because he was young, it seemed like he was still a trainee at this company.

‘hmm.’

I asked Cheong Ryeo.

[Let’s go with that guy next time.]

It’s a bit interesting to see what kind of evaluation this guy will make… .

“no.”

‘… … .’

[Why.]

“Because I won’t use that.”

Cheongryeo lightly touched her chin.

‘There is a lack of consistency in behavior and there are frequent unexpected actions depending on the composition of the team. It’s not a good resource if the result is not constant.’

[…] … .]

“next.”

yeah what… thoughts are free

I gladly opened the other guy’s status window over the window.

However, Cheong Ryeo’s words did not end there.

“And before I asked, I would have told you not to ask for it.”

The guy naturally looked away again.

[!An unauthorized error has occurred]

Do you want to remove the status window (■■■)?]

‘… … .’

“Do you remember now?”

It’s dog X.

That’s how the hellish cohabitation began.
