Chapter 103 – #16. King Woohak (3)
“There, the director sees your face and asks you to eat together.”
In a situation where we are still waiting for an answer from the customer center.
An appointment was made with the director of 「There is a Prince in Our School」 Which Kangjun and I accepted.
When we met, there was a very high probability that he would ask us to act, so Kangjun and I had to practice acting even harder.
“Oh hey, Haesol! That’s not it!! It’s too rigid.”
“Are you okay? I must have been very surprised.”
“Ah!! My eyes!! If you’re going to use that face like that, give it to me!”
“… Isn’t that too much?”
The acting trainer’s scream.
I am in a situation where I can breathe deeply.
“No it’s okay? I must have been very surprised.’ Is this one word difficult? You can just say it normally. Like you say You don’t usually read it in such a rigid way like a machine. Ugh, how do you get him in front of the camera? I really think we should reconsider.”
I tried to upload it if the customer center solved it, but I can’t.
Originally, the acting trainer was good at dissing, but seeing Kang Jun-i giggling in the corner, it seems like my acting was a bit serious.
“And speaking of words, why do you make your face like that when you speak?”
“Did I do that again?”
When I wasn’t doing my lines, my facial expressions weren’t bad, but when I was doing my lines, my face stiffened and my words hardened, which was my chronic problem.
It’s not bad when you focus only on facial expressions.
That part developed steadily to the extent that I was praised by the trainer teacher.
The problem is ‘ambassador’.
“You have no talent for acting.”
“I know, me too.”
“No matter how good-looking your face is, you can’t use it at this level.”
Fuck.
I won’t write a coin.
“… I’ll go to the bathroom.”
Did Kang-jun see that his expression hardened slightly?
The guy is trying to chase after me.
I’m going to knock down Coin right now, but if you come after me, it’ll be difficult.
“Why are you?”
“Uh… Are you okay, brother?”
“Are you okay. Have I been hearing this for a day or two? Even when I look at it, there is no answer when I say lines. I thought it would be okay to do it roughly because it’s a few lines, but the teacher must have noticed that. Just like dancing and singing, I have to practice with poison.”
“I thought he was hurt because he didn’t like his expression.”
“You couldn’t be an idol if you were offended by this level.”
I haven’t been a trainee for a long time, but I don’t know how amazing the gaslighting skills of the trainers working on this floor are.
I don’t know if it’s because the bottom of the entertainment industry is rough, or if it’s because my personality is dirty.
“There is a practice room. I’m really going to see something.”
“Okay.”
It was only after confirming again that Kang-joon was doing nothing wrong that he returned to the practice room.
After going into the empty bathroom and seeing what to do, I turned on the status window.
“Uh? What, when did you come?”
Surprisingly, there was an answer to the inquiry from the customer center!
I didn’t expect it to take 3 days, but I wonder if it’s too slow than I thought.
[Hello. System Gaia.
As a result of checking the contents of the customer’s inquiry, we apologize for the fact that it took a long time to find something unusual.
The first inquiry among the inquiries from the customer is already in service, and it seems to be an error caused by the update not being applied to the customer’s terminal.
For better service, please go to (Settings – 〉 System & Security – 〉 Update) and change the setting to always check the update section.
In the second inquiry, the ability level increase, an error has been confirmed as the customer inquired.
However, the error seems to be a phenomenon caused by illegal modification of the terminal itself, not our problem.
Illegal modification of the terminal is a crime that violates Article 14 of the Dimension 1 Criminal Act.
However, judging from the contents of your inquiry, we believe that the customer did not illegally modify the terminal.
Therefore, we traced the purchase path of the customer’s terminal, and as a result, we confirmed that it was related to corruption.
In order to cooperate with the investigation, if you submit the status window terminal you have, we can give you the latest AI type Rose Bell status window terminal as a reward.
For your smooth and comfortable use… ]
“?”
I read the contents, but I feel like this is something premature! I hear
I’m not talking about me, but the upper echelons of Pony who had this terminal.
In a situation where the doubts I had only out of curiosity turned out to be true, the person who seems to have remodeled this must have been from the upper echelons of Pony.
Here I thought of one thing to do and moved quickly.
[I can provide you with a terminal if you make sure I protect my identity. However, I am concerned about retaliation.]
It shouldn’t have been revealed that this had anything to do with me.
-A message has arrived from the GM.-
I wrote a new article on the customer center inquiry, but surprisingly, the answer came from there very quickly.
It didn’t come as a customer service reply, but as a personal message.
“Amazing.”
[Thank you for your reply and cooperation. Your identity will be strictly protected as you wish. Personal information stored in the terminal can only be verified by us, and is not provided to other organizations without the customer’s consent. Moreover, we are guessing that the illegal modification of the terminal is not the only case. The customer’s inquiry was only the beginning of the investigation, and the evidence to be provided at trial is sufficient through other evidence. So don’t worry about the anonymity part. If this incident causes damage to the customer, we will compensate 200%.]
Listening to what the GM said, the snowball was rolling so much that I wondered if there was anything I could do about it even if I intervened.
The good thing is that I feel like I can eat popcorn while watching the snowball rolling hard.
‘If you give me this status window I have, the other side said they would give you the latest status window, so it’s an advantage for me. The probability that has been manipulated so far will also return to its original state, so it is beneficial, and it goes without saying that the performance will be better than the existing status window.’
Thinking about it again, the top layer of the pony was a bit old, so there was nothing to lose me. Of course, all of this is a story when my identity is completely anonymous.
‘It’s not that I can’t worry at all, but it’s better than not cooperating.’
However, from their point of view, I am a person without status.
I wondered if I would be able to properly receive the compensation I promised to do.
It was a little awkward to send the terminal right away, naively believing in the word that it would provide 200% compensation in case of damage.
‘I’ll have to ask over there for a new model first.’
If I get the reward first, all my worries disappear for me.
Furthermore, just starting a fight between the other side and the upper echelons of Pony would be a win-win situation for me.
‘Because if I get busy with this matter, things about me will inevitably be buried.’
I can tolerate the level of Pony pecking at me every time she sees me.
However, it is difficult to draw a picture of the upper echelons stepping up and putting pressure on me.
It was not very reluctant to receive attention from unknown people.
Please, I hope that you will be very, very troubled by this incident and completely forget about me.
I continued the conversation with GM.
[If you reward me as you said, I have no reason to refuse.]
[When do you have time? I want to retrieve the terminal through summoning. If you cooperate right now, we can give you an additional small coin reward.]
“What is a summons? You mean you want to deal directly?”
I don’t know what the summoning is exactly, but it seems that I want to retrieve my terminal very much, so it seemed to mean that I want to take my terminal right away.
“Not right now.”
[I’m busy at work.]
In addition, I would like to refrain from direct contact with them.
They would think of me as a ‘pony’, but I’m sure they would think it strange if a human of a different race suddenly appeared.
Meeting itself is a risk in maintaining anonymity about my identity.
In addition, the terminal presented a condition that if a new one is sent first, it will be returned after confirmation.
Then, the other side tried to convince me again to see if the body was sweet.
-A message has arrived from the GM.-
[It doesn’t take long. I would like you to give me 10 minutes. The latest AI status window terminal is already ready. Since you want to be anonymous, we have prepared a special summon service. There will be no problem as it is only exchanging items neatly.]
“You seem very needy.”
[All costs will be borne by us. Please call only the coordinates.]
Coordinate?
Another thing I didn’t know came out.
I thought it would be better to ask coolly than to spend time searching.
[I don’t know how to check the coordinates.]
[Confirm the coordinates in the status window…]
Fortunately, he didn’t seem too surprised that I didn’t know how to check the coordinates.
I live without updating, but there is nothing strange about not knowing that much function.
[We are currently staffed 24/7 to expedite processing. It won’t take long to send, customer! Please receive the new product, and after checking, put the old terminal in the box it was sent to, and it will be reverse summoned.]
[All right. I’ll give you the coordinates.]
There was no reason for me to continue to bet on the box.
Let’s call the coordinates confirmed in the status window, and after a while, light spurts in the air! Dig-! And burst out
Through several product purchase experiences, I immediately raised my hand after noticing that there was an item in the light.
Took-!
The light disappeared as if I had waited, and a heavy box was placed in my palms.
There was a button on the box, but anyone could see it sticking out as if to press it.
After lowering the toilet cover, I placed the box on top of it and pressed the button.
The box opens naturally and the objects inside come into view.
‘Is it too small?’
The new status window that I saw in the picture is really correct.
I can’t help but check the price.
“Ooh, crazy.”
It’s a product that is on the rise these days.
It’s hanging in the main store, but I didn’t even keep it in my head because I didn’t dare to look at it.
‘Because it’s a whopping 11,990,000 coins.’
I never thought this would come into my hands so easily.
I thought it was only the rice cake in the picture.
‘But actually, writing this is a bit like that. I’m sure Pony will think it’s strange when she sees it.’
Common sense makes no sense for me to get a new status window like this.
Moreover, I know that for me this new status window is tantamount to putting a pearl necklace around a pig’s neck.
Am I not in a position where I am not able to use the old status window efficiently?
‘Should I just sell it?’
Selling the new one and buying the old one back makes a perfect alibi.
Of course, as for the features, the new model will be overwhelmingly better.
But it wasn’t that my situation was not good enough to pay that price and use it.
Rather, I thought that selling it and buying things that fit my situation was the best way for me at the moment.
Isn’t it a situation where the Pony guy’s identity is also borrowed and used in the first place?
If you want to use the status window in earnest, you will need ‘status’.
‘There’s no way the Pony guy won’t roll his eyes when he sees the new model. They will try to take it from me at all costs. He’s already very greedy.’
He’s already been caught trying to commit a crime once.
I know he can’t be trusted, but do I need to tell him he’s holding a gold nugget?
‘You can save more money by buying the old one second-hand. I’ll buy what I want with the remaining balance.’
The more you think about it, the more you benefit from it.
After organizing my thoughts, I immediately acted.
It was said that if you put the old one into the box containing the new one, it will be reverse summoned, so I took out the ‘ID card’ inserted in the old one.
It was said that it would be difficult to track the information if the device was formatted, so it had to be handed over as it was used.
You don’t have to worry about personal information being leaked if you don’t format it.
There is something called an ‘ID card’, and if you take this card out of the terminal, you can link it to another place at any time.
Moreover, all personal information is recorded on the ‘ID card’, so without it, it is said that personal information cannot be traced.
‘It was useless knowledge I gained while looking at the status window, but I’m using it here.’
I confirmed that the new status window arrived properly, so I put the old status window in the box.
Aren’t you in a position to wait for the terminal to lose your eyes?
The box was instantly engulfed in light and soon disappeared.
‘How different will it be from the old one?’
Even if you want to sell a new model, you will have to turn on the new status window first.
The new status window looks like a palm-sized apple pot case, so I was quite impressed.
Out of curiosity, I pressed the power button on the new square status window.
