Jung Hyeon-seong was a fairly famous player in Lost World.

[You are really amazing. I’ve never seen a player like you.]

[With this much.]

[no. Although I’m the developer who made this, I didn’t really think it would break. You are the first player to surpass my predictions.]

[Yes? Wasn’t it very difficult?]

-Tatak.

Jung Hyeon-seong laughed inwardly while chatting.

‘It’s not that difficult. I spilled my nose to break this, you bastard.’

<Lost World>, a gigantic RPG game that even has a joke about being managed by artificial intelligence.

This game, played by Jung Hyeon-seong, was a thing that nurtured countless disabled people.

4000 hours of play time, 5000 hours.

In any game, deaf people who could hear the sound of stagnant water were scattered like mushrooms after rain in the Lost World.

It was possible because the worldview and contents were so vast.

And Jung Hyeon-seong was unique among them.

-(Picture)

└ Huh? Exceeded 10,000 hours of playing time???

└ and… . Are you able to live a daily life? How can a person take 10,000 hours?]

Let’s certify by taking a screen shot of 10,000 hours of playtime, and it was selected as the best post.

And that’s not all.

Hidden boss monsters and extremely difficult dungeons that no one can beat.

Jung Hyeon-seong did not give up.

No matter what he did, he broke through and won numerous achievements to himself.

The secret to doing what others couldn’t do was simple.

While nurturing more than ten characters at the same time, I just analyzed the contents and achievements that others failed.

A dungeon that can only be cleared by a warrior.

A boss that can only be hunted by characters who have mastered the lightning attribute among wizards.

An achievement that can only be achieved by archers who use wind arrows.

I raised each character to a high level, found impossible information and cleared it with the best counter character.

That’s why even the game’s developers finally acknowledged him.

[I didn’t make this for real break… . This is what Koreans of will have heard only in words.]

1-on-1 chat suggested directly by the developer.

There, Jung Hyeon-seong gave a somewhat pretentious answer.

[It’s such a big deal to be a Korean with such a will. It wasn’t even that difficult. It’s just that others didn’t make enough effort.]

not.

There was a time when I only played games without sleeping for 100 hours in a row to clear a dungeon, but that was beyond the point of talking about hard work.

But I had no choice but to answer that way.

If I didn’t answer like this, it was because I felt like I would regret wasting my life that much.

Spending time on something like a game.

Don’t you feel like a loser in life?

[It wasn’t that difficult… .]

However, the other party seemed to have listened to his words sincerely.

I should have known then.

that people should watch their mouths.

[If it’s not really difficult, would you like to try it properly?]

The developer’s chat, which paused for a while, continued soon.

[Yes? what?]

[A really good game.]

[A proper game… ? ah! Are you working on a Lost World 2? I’ve heard rumors like that.]

[Similar. So, would you like to try it?]

[Now this is a beta tester offer, right? yes, so what I’ll be happy.]

The memory was there.

* * *

Leo opened his eyes.

‘Did you dream… .’

Memories on Earth that have already been months old.

But it didn’t blur at all.

‘… Damn you developer.’

It was a dream I had dozens of times already, but my teeth were grinding each time.

At first, I wondered why the absurdity of possession had happened, but now I can roughly guess.

Probably because he did something.

I frowned at the details of the vividly remembered dream.

‘What the hell did he do?’

At that time, I wanted to meet the developer I was chatting with and ask him by the collar.

What kind of bullshit is this!

However, it wasn’t that I hated dreaming on this earth.

‘Should I say that I’m glad my memories were preserved in this way… .’

The body of this Leo has tremendous performance in terms of intelligence.

One’s brain never forgets what it sees and hears once.

The same goes for dreams.

If I dreamed about my daily life on Earth while I was sleeping, I remembered it vividly after that.

The memory of the dream just before was unpleasant, but when parents or friends occasionally appeared in the dream, that morning was clear enough to bring tears to my eyes.

Anyway, I liked the body of this Prince Leo.

This memory, which never forgets anything, preserves longing memories.

For a while, I was intoxicated by the hazy old memories.

Leo soon came to his senses.

Today I woke up earlier than usual.

He got out of the bedroom and hurriedly got dressed.

‘I have to find out the condition of this body first.’

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Jung Hyeon-seong is a player among deceased players.

He prided himself on knowing the background, world view, hidden quests and characters in the Lost World better than any other user.

And today, it was his turn to use the knowledge he had honed so far for the first time.

“Lowering. Permission has been given for you to visit the library.”

After breakfast, Celise said.

“yes? That’s great.”

The Royal Library had a long history.

And since there were so many important books inside, access was strictly controlled.

There is a world of difference between simply getting permission to borrow a book and going in directly.

Originally, Leo, who had not yet been initiated into magic, might not be allowed.

The reason the permission was dropped was simple.

“Yes. I heard that the Marquis of Merverde, who recently visited, supported the Prince’s opinion.”

Marquis of Merverd.

Leo remembered the look in his eyes as he looked at him.

‘It wasn’t just a way to look at a prince full of talent.’

what more than that

It must have been a look full of anticipation.

“Then I’ll start right away.”

Leo got up from his seat.

There was no need to waste time.

“I will help.”

“no. I can go by myself.”

“But… .”

“Selise. That’s because I want to go alone.”

Leo smiled softly at her.

However, contrary to the smile, it was a resolute gaze.

‘What a child’s eyes… !’

Celise sighed and lowered her head.

“Okay, low. Then I will be waiting for you here, so please be careful.”

“I’m not going anywhere, at most I’m moving within this palace. Do not worry about it.”

With those words, Leo left his room and walked down the hallway.

Before I had gone far, there was an old man approaching me with a waving white beard.

“Marquis Merverde?”

“hahahaha. prince decline. I was going to visit you, but where are you going?”

“Me, the library.”

Leo smiled and replied.

The Marquis of Merverde made a surprised expression.

“Are you talking already?”

It must have been a while since the permission to enter the library was lost.

Didn’t he move as soon as he heard the news?

“yes. I have a book I want to see.”

At Prince Leo’s answer, Marquis Merverde smiled softly.

“You’re really good, my lord.”

‘Even the attitude of being close to a book with that kind of talent… It’s really perfect.’

His great talent for mana is also surprising, but he already shows an attitude that burns his passion for learning.

Can’t you see the buds that will become a really great wizard!

And Leo could see at a glance what Marquis Merverd was thinking.

‘I’m really into it, I’m into it.’

In fact, if you think about it, you might be like that too.

A smart child chooses only the things that are pleasing to the eye, but how can he not like them?

He didn’t know much about the Marquis of Merverde yet, but he could have guessed that he had certain expectations for himself.

“If there is a book you are looking for, I may come with you and find it for you.”

“Thank you, but it’s okay. I just want to look around the library and read a book quietly by myself.”

“hahahaha. okay. Do you already enjoy thinking? I’m glad that your beliefs and tastes are similar.”

Marquis Merverde smiled.

“Then, I will come back to you later. Have a good reading time.”

“yes. see you again.”

* * *

The ‘royal library’ of the Roman Kingdom.

A huge place with as many as 4 million books stored inside!

‘indeed. They say it’s the 2nd largest after the National Library in the capital, so it’s amazing.’

Looking at the endless feast of books in the library, Leo was amazed.

It’s not just a lot of books.

Rare hardcover books and books on forbidden dark magic were kept under strict surveillance.

“Hello, poor prince. You are here early.”

The older librarian looked at Leo and said hello.

“yes. I want to look around the library.”

“okay. So, let your convictions guide you… .”

“no. The favor is fine, but I can watch it alone.”

The librarian looked at Leo curiously.

‘Hmm. I’ve heard rumors that the prince’s deterioration is unusual, but… .’

A small child talking to you with favors.

No matter how early educated the prince was, he was quite unusual.

The librarian smiled politely and guided me forward.

“Yes. Then have a look. I’ll always be here, so if you have any questions you’d like to ask, feel free to drop by.”

“thanks.”

Leo walked around the inside of the spacious library, pretending to look around.

On the outside, it seemed like a child’s curious exploration.

‘Where are you… . where are you… .’

But he was scanning all directions with a sharp gaze.

‘Royal Library of the Kingdom of Rome. I’m pretty sure there’s one here… .’

Although he became a prince in the game, the core was a normal person on the modern Earth.

It’s absolutely not normal, and it’s a game that is rotten water that can’t be high!

‘And a deceased person like me has her own way.’

There were rumors circulating in the user community.

-Sometimes, among the NPCs, there are people whose eyes are bizarrely ‘opened’.

-right. There was a guy who judged like some user looked at stats.

In the game, users can see the status window.

Based on that, I was able to check the abilities and characteristics of the NPCs I met.

And very occasionally, among the NPCs, such a person popped out.

Weird NPCs who behave as if they were looking at the status window like a user.

Although I couldn’t see other people’s and could only check myself, where was that?

It was just a ghost story, but Leo knew the truth about it.

‘Insight of all things. A hidden ability that can only be obtained from a huge library that is counted among the top three in each kingdom.’

This is information I came across by accident.

An NPC I got to know during the quest was a talkative person, and as we talked, he even told me that.

It was information that only someone like Jung Hyeon-seong, who devoted his life to gaming, could know.

‘I’m sure the way to get it is the same. Among the bookshelves north and north of the center of the library, the book with a purple cover at the bottom… .’

The location is random, but it said that it does not deviate from that range.

However, as befits a royal library, the range was very wide, even if it was a north-north bookshelf.

Recalling his memories, Leo wandered between the bookshelves for a long time.

In the middle, I took out interesting books and even read them, so time passed quickly.

It was the library I visited early in the morning, but the sun was setting outside the window before I knew it.

How long have you been walking around with your eyes wide open?

A book with a purple cover caught my eye.
