chapter 1
1 – I cursed novels and possessed cartoons.
I wanted to sacrifice like a hero.
I wanted to die in the process of protecting something or saving someone.
You may be misunderstood after hearing this.
You have some noble beliefs, or you have a self-sacrificing personality.
Wrong.
What I wanted to sacrifice was because I wanted to live longer.
How can dying become more living?
On the day I was possessed by this world, I had to sacrifice like a hero to return to my previous life. It was because of such insane conditions.
There, this was a world destined for destruction.
If you don’t choose sacrifice, you’ll die anyway, swept away by destruction.
That kind of fear led me to somehow sacrifice myself and go back to my previous life.
I didn’t have to do that anymore.
“Why, why didn’t he die?”
The villain who shot me through the eye sockets trembled in embarrassment.
“Uh, uh uh… ?”
The other villains who watched the scene from the side were also embarrassed.
“Monster, monster! Monster….”
f*ck! He wielded a blunt weapon and broke the pot of the villain who was making a fuss. The sound was cool
“Sa, save me….”
“You hurt civilians too. It is subject to disposal.”
Puck! Another cob was smashed. The sound was bad this time. I guess there was nothing inside.
I gently wiped the droplets of blood from my eyes.
A mere ten seconds ago, I was undoubtedly pierced in the left eye by a sniper rifle.
The burning sensation that burns my nerves is still playing in my brain.
But my eyes were fine to anyone’s eyes. In fact, it looked good in front of my eyes.
However, you can’t find any traces of bursts or heals after washing your eyes.
A drop of blood on the back of the hand that was wiped off exists as evidence of the wound. This amount was too small to be considered the amount that flowed from the person whose eyeballs were burst.
Once again, I had my eyeballs blown out. The pain you experienced is proof of that.
By the way, it seems like there were no scars from the beginning.
What could be the reason?
It has been restored. At an overwhelming speed beyond common sense.
Healing factor.
A psychic ability that heals all types of wounds with transcendental speed.
Once I got it, I changed my mind.
Now that this has happened, I will prevent destruction even if I roll hard.
***
-7 Years ago-
[The Kraken reappeared in ‘Iron Pier’. This incident caused property damage of about 5.8 Billion won…… ]
[…] … ‘Moonlight Park’, which should have been a festival, has turned into a mess. It was a terrorist attack by a monster known as the Orc.]
Today is also a b*tch.
It was a brief impression after seeing the news.
There are cars and TVs here.
It was a world with a somewhat modern look, but it was not ‘Earth’. It’s a cartoon world. Of course, neither “Korea” Nor “America” Existed.
I am aware of that fact. However, incidents and accidents did not cease to the extent that it was too much.
All sorts of fictional beings, including monsters, cryptids, and demons, already exist.
[The police slaughtered 51 people on the ‘Street of Rain’, released the scene on their social media, and defined ‘Diart’, an illegal immigrant who fled, as the villain, while requesting official support from the Hero Association. I did.]
Just like the news that is leaking out now, there were so many insane people who killed double-digit people for no apparent reason.
There were often situations where even a slight distraction could lead to death. Because of that, every moment was truly spectacular.
Notice and judgment.
It is a point that has been forcibly improved by being possessed by a world where there is always the possibility of being killed.
There was nothing wrong with that, but when I thought about how dangerous this world was, I wasn’t very happy.
“Ha, my life.”
Actually, my previous life wasn’t very good either.
I grew up being abused in an orphanage, so I tried to see and learn a lot from a young age. It had to be.
The era when AI has begun to replace humans. I had to prove my usefulness in many ways in order to earn money with no school ties, regional ties, or blood ties.
I was lucky to meet a boss who prefers people in the AI era and saved quite a bit of money, but I remembered the days when I was poor. So I used to save money except when I was using it for hobby purposes.
The money saved up is at least worth the price of an apartment. Looking back now, I’m dying of regret.
He must have been possessed, didn’t he?
There are countless evil forces that threaten humanity,
It is overflowing with people with too much personality,
To the superhero genre.
Now I can’t write even if I want to.
“Whoa… ….”
He let out a short sigh.
To be honest, I really liked the hero genre.
How much I liked it, I would have tried it without thinking if it was a hero genre, no matter what others’ evaluations were.
It is limited to the hero genre, but Yellowy’s appetite boasts the top 0.001%. sh*t. Looking back, that was the biggest problem.
Isn’t the reason why I possessed a world where I hear bad news every day because I was swearing at the development of a novel that I happened to read while eating without classifying it as a hero genre?
‘Honestly, it was worth cursing.’
There is a hero who was not the main character, but was praised as the best throughout the 300 episodes of the novel. The being was unable to compete for the 3rd and died with a hole punched through his chest.
Similarly, there is a rival who was evaluated as a competent person who is on par with the protagonist. He died without being able to resist, leaving only a description that he had become a lump of meat.
After that, they were the best in Korea and the best in America, even the talented people who were arrogant. As soon as he appeared, he died like a relay.
A monster who appeared out of nowhere in a novel that I thought was about a fight between a villain and a hero.
Among them, to the heteromorphic beings who claim to be gods.
Even in the midst of people dying and the world being destroyed by monsters, the villains didn’t stop f*cking around. Rather, he was more active.
‘Uh, is this a real test?’
Anyway, the development of impoverishment without dreams and hopes continued for about 50 episodes.
Still, if you go later, there will be a twist that will turn everything upside down. Turning such a happy circuit, I read it to the end, and I was an asshole.
The novel ended abruptly with the description that the main character had become friends with the monster god.
Is this the end?
While readers’ reactions were ambiguous, the next episode came up. It was actually not the next episode that I received 200 won and ate it, but the latter part.
Here, the writer said, “Everyone, the main character saved the world. Are you really thrilled?” I wrote things like this one after another.
I think it was the first time I thought 200 won was a waste. No, who gets paid in the first place?
The devastation of the situation can emphasize the narrative of salvation, and the sacrifice proves the value of a saint who can kill a hero.
That’s why devastation and sacrifice were very common elements in the hero genre. But that went too far. Masterpieces should be done as well.
What happened after that?
I packed up the swear words and sent a long note to the writer. The reply came again, and the moment I read it, I was possessed.
A very typical cliché. But isn’t there a case where a certain part is changed by twisting it sometimes? Something like being possessed by a novel you haven’t read, or being possessed by a novel someone you know read.
I was exactly the case.
This crazy writer didn’t possess me in his own ‘novel’ that I cursed at. Quite out of the blue, I possessed a ‘cartoon’ drawn by a completely different artist.
“Have you really gone crazy? Why do you possess other works? If the world view is going to change, at least it should be the work you wrote.”
The contents are similar.
The main character’s exhaustion.
Overwhelmingly strong evil.
A world driven to destruction.
This was also the hero genre. Because Yellowy’s nature was displayed and he read it to the end, he knew everything about it.
It was very different from the novel written by the author Jo Muse in that it constantly spread rice cakes that something was going wrong, but as a result, this place was really destroyed. So it’s more of a problem.
My age is 10 this year.
At the age of 20, that doubles.
This world faces a very miserable end.
[Quest: Sacrifice like a hero in a creation.]
[Reward: Return to the previous world.]
I remember the contents of the quest window that popped up in front of my eyes just once on the day I was possessed.
It has asked me for death and cause of death.
Death is easy, but except for dog death and suicide, human causes cannot be controlled at will.
If it belonged to the category that can be controlled, so many humans would have died like heroes at the last moment and wanted to be remembered by the public.
This is a crazy gamble with your life at stake. Considering the risk of ending in vain, it is right to not even dare to do it with common sense. I don’t know that either.
But it’s already too late to talk about common sense. Isn’t it an emergency to be possessed by this place?
A hero’s sacrifice must be noble. You shouldn’t expect any reward. Even so, in terms of forcing it through a quest, it felt really f*cking contrived.
If that’s the case, then what? At least, I don’t know if I had the power. I didn’t have the strength to fight against destruction, and I had no other options.
‘If I can’t go back, I’ll just die.’
I looked at the clock on the wall. It was already 7 o’clock.
Today too, find a place to sacrifice.
“Let’s go to the slums.”
