Debut or Die

Chapter 561

If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 561

.

Water droplets hit the back of the hand.

‘… ?’

Cheongryeo didn’t even move, just looked down and looked at the back of her hand. Small droplets of truly transparent water burst and shattered.

‘Where did it come from?’

He tried to look up to check the route or raise his hand to see the result closer.

But nothing went the way I wanted.

‘… … .’

Because the body didn’t move.

‘Why?’

he wasn’t embarrassed I just tried to think deeply in order to calmly infer the cause.

at that time. Drops of water fell on the back of my hand again.

pop.

Chung-Ryeo realized it only when she directly observed the process.

It

was the cold sweat she shed.

[The avatar of an idol looks at you.]

[The avatar of an idol looks at you.]

[The avatar of an idol looks at you.]

[The avatar of an idol looks at you.] Falling down

from the air

as if pressing down. The feast of gaze hardens the whole body from all sides and gives a terrible pressure.

My body refuses to try to raise my head and face it.

‘ah.’

The mind is an appendage of the body.

In that sense, unlike his mind, which has been deep and distant for a long time, his body, which is only in his early 20s, felt an instinctive threat.

Someone was looking down at him from a high place.

Examine it as if something higher was probing it all over.

yourself.

[——-]

Above all the windows, a huge sentence rises like a moon rising above the surface of the water.

[The incarnation of the idol is satisfied.]

And like a lie, everything disappeared.

Hoo-wook.

Air fills the place where the tension that used to tighten the breath has been released.

The sound of breathing finally started to reach my ears.

And the voice too.

“Seniors. There’s no way you need to take medicine, but you missed the timing… … .”

“no.”

Cheong-rye gently lifted her hand from the table. The water dripped in a trajectory.

“… … .”

Then I turned my head to check the time.

’67 minutes.’

For over an hour, he was caught in that grotesque gaze. Under pressure so terrifyingly strong that you can’t feel the passage of time.

He slowly wiped the byproducts from the back of his hand.

think.

What is it and why did it appear?

The principle was unknown, but a clear connection came to mind.

‘Help.’

That’s because when he called for help, it appeared in the void where help originally appeared.

However, it did not feel friendly or personable like Help. A cold gaze too insensitive to call hostility.

overwhelming.

Cheong-ryo slowly closed her eyes and opened them.

what is its purpose

‘quest.’

I was looking into myself. as if to confirm. and… .

‘A declaration of intent that covers the air.’

It was a warning.

“… … .”

Cheong-ryeo made her judgment calmly.

‘Am I saying don’t call for help?’

It was a reasonable reasoning because the moment he called for help, he appeared as if he was responding instead.

He turned his head to see his helper, still unconscious, leaning against the table.

What does it have to do with it?

Should I find out?

Cheong-rye knocked on the table slowly.

My fingertips were still a bit dull, probably from the pressure of the last 67 minutes.

Such a shock… .

“It’s been a while.”

“yes?”

Cheong-ryeo did not answer.

I felt that there seemed to be a lot of new variables appearing in this restart.

It was annoying that new elements would appear even after such a long time, but Cheong-Ryeo was used to even that.

Even the fact that anything can be solved by learning it over and over again.

“hmm.”

So it was the moment when he raised his head and tried to call for help once again.

Cheongryeo’s gaze stopped in midair.

“… … .”

has disappeared.

Pop-up asking if you want to delete help.

[! Unauthorized error occurred]

Are you sure you want to remove the status window (???)?]

Even the red error removal window that always popped up when he called for help disappeared as if it had melted from his sight.

As if there is no more help.

In the system.

– Pooh.

Park Moon-dae took a deep breath and approached the terminal.

Inside the system, there was still nothing and silence. In the center, only that terminal drifted alone like an uninhabited island.

Some of the terminals he made were invisible because they were on the surface of the system.

In fact, it sometimes gave me a creepy feeling, but I remembered that I tried my best not to be conscious of it.

‘You’ve worked hard.’

Now I can calmly admit that fact. Still, I had enough strength in my heart to be okay.

Park Moon-dae thought it would be thanks to the blessing given by Seon Ah-hyun.

Although I didn’t see their pop-up when I logged in here, the effect seemed to linger nonetheless.

‘It could be a placebo, but… .’

It was fine though. He grinned and reached out to navigate the terminal.

Completion of the analysis was just around the corner.

If Daedal, not himself, had worked here, he might not have had this much trouble. But as an outsider myself, I did my best.

He clung back to the terminal and began trying to figure out what was inside.

Sincerely, calmly.

‘… … .’

However, what was surprising was that even after a considerable amount of time had passed, the expected disturbance did not come.

‘I thought I might call soon.’

When I was working on the terminal like this, I got a call in the middle once every two or three times.

Cheongryeo used to call for help.

So this time, as much as I openly logged in, I thought that he might call me and interrupt me… Oddly enough, it was very quiet.

‘Of course, this time I tried to ignore whatever it was called.’

Rather, it was good.

Park Moon-dae made up his mind to stop thinking about things and focus on the terminal again.

He made contact with the terminal.

The status window sentence that Moondae Park first found on this terminal is still floating.

[Start reboot]

– Learning in progress.

It was the phrase he had seen before he was dragged into this place.

And until now, Moondae Park has tried to find the source of ‘why’ this sentence was printed.

‘I thought knowing the reason would be a clue.’

It was a journey to find some kind of database.

And now the end was in sight.

‘Let’s do it.’

He ideologically closes his eyes and digs into the terminal to find the origin as if climbing up his nerves.

information… information… … .

If you dig up delicately again after reaching the point you explored last time… !

Took.

get caught

‘Okay… all!’

Park Mun-dae gritted his teeth and finally took the database he was holding onto out of the terminal.

The unresisting grip felt like it would tear, but I ignored it. Then, a new terminal displaying the database was formed.

It wasn’t that difficult anymore.

‘good.’

He sighed in relief, almost euphoric.

The database status window finally revealed… .

[Learning details]

-Will to survive

-Negotiation

-Confirmation of the owner’s wishes

-Quick adaptation

“… … .”

It was as if the characteristics were listed in a row.

It was a format familiar to Park Moon-dae.

‘It’s similar to a roulette to draw attributes.’

It looked like the roulette window where the randomly drawn attributes that he had seen when he was using the system were open all the time.

He reflexively clicked on one.

-Survival Will

: The biological instinct to do whatever it takes to survive as a being.

/ Obtained by rebooting.

It was similar this time. The same description follows as if you clicked on the characteristics and took a closer look.

And considering the ‘How I Acquired’ explanation at the bottom of this, and the fact that the title of this entire list is ‘Learning History’… .

‘Did the system learn this all along?’

In the meantime, it means that the system has learned these things while doing ‘reboot’.

Moondae Park skimmed through the list with a feeling of hesitation.

Survival Negotiation Wish Adaptation… .

‘Aren’t all these attributes already possessed by this bastard?’

Aren’t cockroaches like system specifics?

The things I’ve been through so far have been written very literally.

Usually, a reboot is done when a new product is created by making up for a lacking point, but somehow it seemed like I was listening to the same roundabout song.

‘hmm.’

It was a rather disappointing sight. Because it didn’t look very clueless.

Of course, I had no intention of giving up.

‘Should I analyze the terminal more here?’

It was the moment when he fell asleep because he felt like he was running out of time.

Suddenly, one last line was added to the ‘learning history’ window.

belt ring.

-A longing for the source,

Moondae Park reflexively clicked on it.

– Yearning for the source

: The desire to somehow reach the essence through persistent analysis and development.

‘what… … .’

It was not strange to think that this was also an attribute of the original system.

‘They say all sorts of nonsense about being an idol.’

Moondae Park lowered his gaze with a disillusioned expression.

Below that, as before, explains how I learned this… .

/Obtained by analyzing the terminal.

‘… ?’

that… … It was what Moondae Park was doing now.

Even the expression terminal was coined by himself.

“… … .”

chills down the spine

It felt like my head was spinning.

somewhere… As you know, itchy, yet ominous, a strange feeling… … .

‘… … !’

no way.

Park Moon-dae hurriedly clicked on other learning details.

And I gathered only the description at the bottom and started reading… .

/Obtained by talking to the bearer.

/acquisition under threat of deletion.

/Acquired while adapting to a new environment.

The subject was hidden in this word.

And the subject… .

‘it’s me.’

It was Park Moon-dae.

The situations he has experienced while crash-landing in this strange place are listed in systemic words.

Doing my best to survive in this bizarre situation, trying to negotiate with the systemic Cheongryeol, being deleted and trying to adapt to a new body… … .

Park Moon-dae looked into the terminal in shock as if he had been hit on the head.

[Learning History]

The system was learning through Park Moon University.

He was learning his actions, which became the status window, as his own.

So reboot… .

‘no.’

Park Moon-dae realized that the logic was strange.

‘The system is already like that, so what are you learning?’

So learning is learning… .

‘… … .’

You just need to change the subject.

‘What I’ve learned… Is it me?’

Park Moon-dae realized.

It is not that the system has learned how to behave in Park Moon-dae.

Park Moon-dae learned how the system behaves.

That was the moment when he finally completed the sentence with no gaps in probability.

-The learning completion

terminal has changed.

The moment Moondae Park confirms it with a trembling sight.

[System Reboot]

My vision turned black.

* * *

Dark.

what was i doing

‘maybe… … .’

It didn’t seem like a big deal. There probably won’t be any big problems. I had such a feeling.

‘hmm.’

Somehow, it wasn’t even more scary. I was comfortably immersed in the space as if I was stretching.

This moment was all the more comfortable thanks to the faint feeling that I had been very uncomfortable until just before.

‘what?’

I didn’t really want to use my brain. Still, if you have a rough idea… … .

‘It seems like someone told me to do something.’

okay.

Perhaps I was waiting for something. I nodded and swam again in the empty space.

‘… … .’

For some reason, it seemed that the accident was getting slower and slower.

That was fine too. I will wait for the reboot as it is in this crazy space with no light or sound, without any objection.

‘Reboot?’

Anyway, there was something like that. That’s good.

I felt it was time to stop thinking… .

[]

Then.

A small line appeared in the air.

[-]

It didn’t shine like a hologram. It is just a translucent line floating in the air.

However, the lines gradually get longer. Then, the edges are butted together to form small figures.

rectangular frame.

‘… … pop-up.’

I watched it as if possessed.

White letters float above it.

[Junior.]

The inside of the system where the pop-up of friends who used to give blessings couldn’t come in.

No, in a place I thought it was, a pop-up was quietly emerging.

[Junior.]

It was a familiar title.

Having a non-restart dog you know.

‘… Cheongryeo.’

It was the title Shin Jae-hyun called.
