Chapter 45 – Chapter 45: Office
To express the East Continent seen through the screen, I wanted to call it the Oriental Continent.
It’s because it looks like a world where East Asia is mixed in moderation and the West’s gaze drunk on oriental fantasy mulberry is set aside as MSG.
Aside from the world of reversal between men and women, which is hard to feel beyond the screen,
Even in the city of buildings and concrete, that was clearly evident.
The traditional restaurant with a signboard in the shape of a lantern is a mixture of Korean-style roof tiles and Japanese-style mansion corridors.
In cultural festivals held in places such as museums, Chinese-style lion masks and rat fire dances are performed in harmony.
Just as Westerners describe Eastern cultures without distinction of nationality, they are all mixed up.
The world seen through the screen was like that.
However, if you go downstairs, the world of reversal between men and women touches you more deeply than the Oriental Continent.
A world where the social status of men and women has changed, and it is only a matrilineal society, not clothes and makeup.
The man didn’t wear a skirt, and the woman didn’t have a beard, so looking through the screen, it was just a normal Earth.
However, the story changes a little when you go down using the avatar yourself.
Maybe it’s because I became a dreamer, but the first thing I feel is the women’s earnest gaze.
It is not the gaze of the apocalypse survivors of the previous world, discussing whether or not that man is a threat to me.
Sexual gazes driven to the crotch and chest.
It’s like feeling whether there is a creature on the other side of a dark tunnel.
The eyes of the street women feel prickly.
It wasn’t that unpleasant.
Likewise, is it because I became a dreamer or because I am not a man in this world?
Because I was able to just look at it and pass it on.
From an office worker with a sly look to a plain girl who doesn’t seem to know how to style her bobbed hair.
I guess I have no choice but to pay attention to a man with a good body.
Just as the men of the previous world glanced at a short-dressed beauty passing by on the roadside.
After wandering around the streets moderately, head to Han Ye-ji’s guild building.
As the time to operate the avatar increased, I was moving as if I was melting into the people of this world.
Rather than rushing into the office, I wanted to grab a coffee and enter as a visitor from the first floor.
For no particular reason, just to feel the real sense that I am alive.
Is the suffering in the apocalypse even embedded in the soul?
It was so much fun to take a visitor card and ride the elevator.
It is pleasant to use the benefits of a civilization’s selfishness in a intact civilization that has not perished.
Even so, I bought coffee with points.
It was good to enjoy the conveniences of civilization, but the problem was that I tasted 1 point coffee.
As a matter of course, the coffee made with the points tasted better than the coffee sold in the market.
To the extent that it is only addictive to the theme of Americano.
Thanks to Lee Ha-rin, who is becoming a big hand in the art world at some point because of the ancestral rites.
The fixed cost of 30pts per month for one cup of coffee a day was not burdensome.
Now, the incoming points were easily over a thousand units and were playing at 10,000 units.
Even if you simply assume that 1 point is 1 won, it would not be burdensome to buy and eat bad food for 30 won when your monthly allowance is 500,000 won.
‘A constellation’s reputation affects points… I didn’t expect it to be like this.’
Furthermore, the points a constellation gains are proportional to the incarnation’s activity and the constellation’s reputation.
Buying coffee and going was also a way to earn points.
Even if you go to the office, give out coffee, and chat for about 30 minutes, you get points that multiply several times.
By giving out 100 points worth of coffee, you gain 500 points of recognition.
It’s not a significant income, but at least it will be for snacks.
Not only did I pay for the snacks I ate alone, but I even bought coffee for Han Ye-ji’s office and Lee Ha-rin’s instructors.
Of course, it is not the point that matters.
I adjusted my clothes in front of the mirror in the elevator.
Dark blue jeans and a navy short sleeve shirt. It was a simple and comfortable outfit.
Of course, this is my standard, and if you unfasten two buttons here, the story will change.
Because it was written in an internet article I saw before.
[Unpack the coffee you received from the constellation] +12
[Aren’t the names of the constellations too difficult?] +7
[Ah haha the Constellation descends every week at work] +89
The Constellation and Incarnation Gallery, also known as the Seonghwa Gallery.
It’s an anonymous site that talks about constellations and incarnations, so there are a lot of people.
There are both Constellation fan cafes and Hwashin fan cafes, but this is the only place where you can talk about Constellations and Hwasin anonymously.
Because it is an anonymous site, there are many stories of a higher level than other sites.
If you recall that there was a site like this in your previous life, you should think that the place where people live is really the same.
Among them, the most recommended articles are highlighted in chronological order.
All three articles side by side were my story.
Of course, I didn’t look for it, but when Lee Ha-rin checked the site every day at a set time, I watched it from the side.
The reason why the name of the constellation is difficult is because of my constellation name.
They said it was a lethargic nightmare, so I thought of a gloomy man like a hikikomori, slumped and pinned to the corner of a room.
The question of why a healthy handsome man with full of muscles appears.
After receiving the coffee, someone filmed the process of making my avatar.
Suddenly Boom! It didn’t appear like that, but some kind of fog came up from the floor and changed into a human form.
For me, who only opens my eyes after my body is complete, the sight of my avatar being created was truly amazing.
Of course, the people of this world who were used to the authority of constellations and incarnations did not respond much.
Finally, the one with the most comments was the article titled [Ah haha the Constellation descends every week at work].
There was only one reason why people responded the most.
Because I was determined and put up a fight.
‘Have you seen the Constellation’s face?’
If you briefly summarize a long sentence, it becomes just that one sentence.
Some of Han Ye-ji’s office colleagues seemed to have a talent for provoking people.
It’s because he scratched away all the Constellation otaku who adored his Constellation among incarnations, who adored it as a male-female relationship.
People who love Constellations, even if they are not incarnations, were also scratched.
Our Constellation dresses up nicely, buys us coffee every week, and chats with us. What about you?
Isn’t it comparable to scratching people the hottest among internet aggro?
I felt it when I saw the comments updated in real time on this article.
Hundreds of comments have been posted, crossed the line, deleted and rewritten-
There are dozens of things that remain after being written and deleted repeatedly.
Because of how influential the constellation is, she didn’t sign a contract with her.
The mere fact that a constellation is coming to one’s office is such a great source of pride.
Some of the malicious comments contain vivid jealousy that can be felt even beyond the monitor, which is surprising.
As I was quietly checking the comments, the door opened with a ding sound.
“Uh, Constellation, are you here! Coffee, please.”
A woman who seems to be able to memorize her face her jumps up near her elevator and hurries over.
At the same time, people’s eyes gather at the loud voice that is not lively.
Even the eyes of the regular office members and the very few guests.
Maybe it’s because I’m wearing a short-sleeved shirt, but I feel like people’s eyes are a little more persistent.
Just because men and women are reversed doesn’t mean that masculinity and femininity have changed.
After all, are the parts that women find attractive in men similar?
Thick hands, veins on the back of the hands, well-muscled forearms, muscular chest and collarbones visible through untied shirts, thick neck and other parts.
It’s just that the reaction you see after feeling the attraction in such a place is different. It’s not that the part that shows the reaction has changed strangely.
‘Has it changed when I see men wanting to rub their chests or arms…?’
Of course, it’s a different story for perverts with abnormal sexual desire who believe in the anonymity of the Internet and go wild, not face-to-face.
It is difficult to judge the world with the ideal sexuality of the Internet.
In the previous world, were there only one or two people who were excited about ponies or Pokemon?
Even when drunk, there were some guys who went into heat with female creatures that still had a lot of human features.
“Constellation, you are here!”
“Okay, what happened today?”
Han Ye-ji comes to meet her from the other side of her office her, and her senior her and her juniors her sneak past her.
The entire office is filled with consideration for male and female constellations.
Of course, I only quietly widened the distance, sipping my coffee and pretending not to notice him glancing at me.
It’s not that I’m being sexually harassed by an old, ugly old woman, and I don’t want young women to get angry just for looking at me.
Although the direction is a bit different, I received a lot of searching eyes even when I was grouping in Apocalypse.
If I allowed my body to this man, would he protect me?
Even though the direction is different, it is the same as the eyes that are re-evaluated in the end.
“I have had several interviews since the last incident. Other than that… No big deal. To the extent of subduing the incarnations who are sometimes drunk?”
“So? Always be careful though. You never know when strange people will pop out.”
When I look at you smiling wide, I also look at you smiling.
I awkwardly put my hand on top of the hand on the desk.
Her hand her, held in hers, twitched slightly.
The reason for coming all the way here to share trivial conversations that could have been shared in a dream was simple.
I’m busy in my dreams
Of course, in that sense.
I laugh lively in the office, but if I come to you in my dreams tonight, I will whine again and cling to you.
