28. Q&A 2
[◎]
Kang Seung-hyun looked at the message that appeared in front of him.
The guy’s goal is number 1. It was either collecting points or collecting items.
‘Why did it take 5 minutes?’
It must have taken a long time to find a new emoji. Kang Seung-hyun smiled as if he was dumbfounded and said,
“Now, the last question. Which is more important, collecting points or collecting items? Please send O for points and X for items.”
Seunghyun Kang waited for his answer.
[◎]
This time, I didn’t have to wait for 5 minutes, the answer came right away. The guy’s answer is YES.
‘I wonder if it was this.’
The reason why ‘something’ helps dimension movers is because of the points they earn. The stronger the dimension mover, the more points he will earn.
I don’t know what he’s trying to do with the points, but this one thing is certain.
‘This bastard caught us to use us as slaves to earn points.’
There was a reason for giving rewards through a roulette draw like a game. If you spread too much and become strong, the slaves will stop working and go out to play.
“If you want to use slaves to earn points, use people from the Azul Continent.”
Kang Seung-hyun clicked his tongue and muttered.
There are many people on the Azul continent who would sell their souls if they could become strong, so why are they kidnapping people from Earth and making them slaves?
‘I’d like to ask more, but that was just the last question.’
He can’t answer questions anymore. Because it seemed like there was something wrong with him.
“…anyway.”
Kang Seung-hyun frowned and continued talking.
“The important thing here is that no one knows about the ‘point’ other than dimension movers.”
There is no concept of ‘point’ in the Azul Continent worldview. Like the status window, it is a concept that only dimension movers know.
However, ‘something’ even called slaves from another dimension to collect points.
“You know a system that even the natives don’t know, so you’re not an ordinary person.”
Maybe this guy made the point and status window system. Seunghyun Kang thought for a moment before opening his mouth.
“Are you the god of Azul Continent?”
god.
It would sound laughable on Earth, but God actually exists on the Azul Continent. Representatively, there is the goddess Ayver worshiped by the Ayver Church.
‘It’s not just one or two, but several.’
The gods of the Azul Continent do not actively intervene in the human world, but give power to those who believe in them. That’s why the priests of Azul Continent are strong.
“If you’re not even a god and you’re doing something like this… that’s even more amazing.”
Bringing slaves from another dimension.
Help the slaves you bring grow.
creating new systems and so on.
No matter how you look at it, it’s something God would do.
‘…I think I’m the first one to find out this far.’
In the first place, the majority of dimension movers do not even know its purpose, let alone talk with it. Kang Seung-hyun was the only one who dug this far.
“Honestly, I’m not interested in what you’re going to do with the points.”
It’s fun to live on the Azul Continent, though.
“All I want to know is how to get home.”
Kang Seung-hyun has a reason to return to Earth. So I had to listen to the answer somehow.
“I don’t have many questions left, but if I were you, I would answer them somehow.”
Because currently, Kang Seung-hyun is the only person who has the greatest potential to achieve the goal of ‘something’.
“I know there is something you can’t say, but if you want someone to help you, at least try your best.”
support position.
At that time, the status window screen turned on without permission along with a strange noise.
[Points are consumed.]
[Accumulated points: 52 points]
“Huh?”
[Port □ Small □ Mohap □□□ Da□]
[Number of points: □32 points]
[Po □ Mohap □□□ Da ]
[Accumulated ports: 12 points]
[Po □□ Points.]
[Cumulative number: 2 points]
[Points all number points □□□□]
And with a bizarre message, the accumulated points suddenly disappeared.
“No fuck? what are you doing?”
Seunghyun Kang was dumbfounded. I used to scream, but I didn’t mean to do something like this.
[□□□□□ : 0 points □]
The accumulated points ran out. It wasn’t much, but it evaporated without a trace in the blink of an eye. It’s as if the money you put in your bank account is withdrawn.
“Aren’t you giving me my points?”
Kang Seung-hyun shouted into the air
[Q] [Please collect 5000 points.]
[Reward]: [★]
[Gather a lot] [ㅔㅇyo]
This system window appeared in front of me. No matter how you look at it, it’s something that comes up often in games.
“…Quest window?”
It was a bit sloppy and crudely made, but it was unmistakably a quest window.
‘Until now, there was no such thing as a quest system.’
The achievement system exists, but there were no quests that induced special actions in this way. In the first place, he had never been in contact with a dimension mover.
‘Seeing that he took my points and then sent a quest… Are you using the points to manage the system?’
If so, what has happened so far is understandable.
In the meantime, why didn’t you show any reaction to the dimension mover?
Why did you give a sloppy answer?
Why did you steal other people’s points?
‘I can’t intervene on this side without that guy’s point.’
Kang Seung-hyun realized the purpose of the points.
Points are the energy used to manage the status window system. Points are consumed when sending messages as well as adding new systems.
‘Even if you send a single message, the points go in… so I couldn’t talk to you easily.’
It was not a small number, but a fairly large amount.
‘That’s probably why the length of the message got shorter the further you go.’
It was because he ran out of accumulated points while answering Kang Seung-hyun’s question.
‘I was trying to create a quest window, but I didn’t have enough points, so they stole mine.’
Seunghyun Kang looked at the quest window again.
[Q] [Please collect 5000 points.]
[Reward]: [★]
[Slowly collect
]
‘Given the slow collection, it must mean that communication will be difficult for a while.’
According to Kang Seung-hyun’s idea, he has run out of accumulated points. You won’t be able to send a single letter.
“Even if you can’t answer, you’ll be listening to my voice… Anyway, you’re telling me to collect 5000 points, right?”
5000 points. The amount of 250 spins of a 20-point roulette wheel.
It’s not a small amount, but it’s not an impossible amount either.
‘The reward is a black star. Nine out of ten skills with ★ attached.’
According to Kim Ho-jeong, something happens when a dimension mover collects 4 skills marked with ★.
‘Are you saying to gather skills?’
If you clear the quest in this way, you will be able to come into contact with ‘something’ again. Seunghyun Kang nodded and opened his mouth.
“I can’t keep calling you ‘something’, and I can’t call you a god whose name I don’t know…”
Calling him a god is a bit unlucky for some reason. Seunghyun Kang thought for a moment.
‘A slave trader who earns points by enslaving slaves in another world.’
‘Otherwise, you’re an asshole who needs to get his salary through roulette and eat it.’
I had a lot to say, but for now, I decided to call him by his proper name.
“I am managing the status window, so the status window manager… I’ll call you ‘administrator’ for convenience.”
There was no reply from him, but originally no news was good news. Kang Seung-hyun took it as a positive meaning.
“Now that this has happened, I wish you well in the future. I would appreciate it if you could adjust the roulette odds.”
I put my selfishness in my mind just in case, but there was nothing to adjust the roulette odds.
– “…I thought I was dying of exhaustion.”
Seunghyun Kang muttered as he relaxed his stiff body.
Whatever the case may be, the ‘manager’ is a divine being who transcends humanity. It’s only natural that I get tired after doing the OX quiz with a guy like that.
‘I’ve come here and experienced all kinds of magic and monsters, but I never thought the day would come when I could talk to God.’
Kang Seung-hyun laughed as if it was absurd.
It is true that gods actually exist on the Azul continent, but there was little to do with them. Because Kang Seung-hyeon had no particular religious beliefs and never went to a church.
‘I’ve never received a common heel.’
Kang Seung-hyun himself is a wild healer, so the fact that he had a bad relationship with the priest also played a role. He often does things that the church hates, so there’s no way he can talk to a god.
‘I thought God had nothing to do with me.’
I never thought God could be so close.
I felt somehow helpless.
‘How much fun it must have been to watch people suffer behind the scenes.’
Kang Seung-hyun dragged his tired body and lay down on the bed.
The ruined roulette rewards of the past passed by. He was furious with himself for receiving unnecessary stats and pennies. Those were really upsetting moments.
‘I don’t think the important thing right now is going to Earth. Beating that bastard isn’t important.’
I just feel like I won’t be able to sleep because I’m just going home. Kang Seung-hyeon vowed to defeat the main body of the manager no matter what.
‘Ah, I forgot this while talking to the manager.’
Kang Seung-hyun opened the achievement window while lying on the bed.
[Accomplishment achievement: Relic of □□□□]
[Achieved if you obtain the artifact left by □□□□.]
“If this is an achievement… there will be an achievement reward.”
Kang Seung-hyun confirmed the achievements that appeared earlier.
Although some letters are broken, it is an unmistakable achievement. You can receive a reward by clicking the [Receive Reward] button.
‘What do you want me to give you? I wish I could give you something nice.’
[Receiving the reward]
Kang Seung-hyun pressed the button, hoping that a skill that would earn points would come out.
‘Couldn’t it be a random reward again?’
Fortunately, I didn’t hear the sound of the roulette wheel this time. It seems to be a designated reward, not a random reward.
‘I thought he had no conscience, but he seems to have one.’
Of course it should. I ripped off so many points.
Kang Seung-hyun calmly waited for the reward.
Wow!
At that time, Fria’s bracelet on her wrist emitted an intense light.
“uh?”
Kang Seung-hyun jumped up in surprise. The bracelet she was wearing disappeared with the light.
“Where did this go?”
I hurriedly looked through my inventory, but the crossbow was nowhere to be found. I was speechless and in a daze, but a reward window appeared in front of me.
★[Acquire the skill (Fria’s Crossbow)!]
What I got as an achievement reward was a skill.
A skill with a fairly familiar name, too.
