Chapter 2 – #3 Isn’t That Bad?
#3 Isn’t that bad?
“Everybody get down! Get down if you don’t want to fall behind!”
“Quaaaaah!”
A group of gangsters broke into the bank. The assailants in black masks shot and overpowered the bank guards.
People in the bank screamed at the ear-piercing gunshot and fell to the ground as they were told.
“Get down quickly!”
“Kuk! Sa, save me…”
If anyone behaved strangely or did not lie down properly, the assailant would come running and kick them and threaten them with a gun. People were terrified by the actions of the ruthless assailants.
“Put the money in here!”
The bank tellers wept and put the money in their bags. I was afraid that the muzzle might send out a spark.
“Kills that move! Head down! Stay still!”
It took less than five minutes for the bank robbers to steal the bank’s money and run away. After taking all the bags, the robbers fired a few more shots before exiting the bank.
“Get on quickly!”
And all you have to do is hop in the prepared car-
Bang-!
“Where are you going?”
“Sir, what the fuck is that?!”
Someone jumped on top of the car. The car jumped from such a high place that it was difficult to recognize its original shape.
“Shoot! Kill!”
The robbers instinctively shot at the man. Fire was fired from more than 10 gun barrels, and numerous bullets hit the man.
But-
“Are you stinging?”
“Mmm, crazy…”
In the barrage of bullets, the man was not hurt in the slightest. The black and blue uniform he was wearing was fine, and the corner of the man’s mouth that was exposed was fine.
The robbers were terrified when they saw the man who was fine even after being hit by hundreds of bullets.
“Now it’s my turn.”
Saying that, the smiling man disappeared.
“Aaaaa…”
“Help me…”
“Ha, surrender…”
When the man reappeared, all the bank robbers were on the floor moaning. Shortly thereafter, the police, who were called to the scene, arrested the bank robber.
The man who had been watching the scene until the end turned around and said.
“Don’t worry. Heroes like me are keeping you safe in this Dark City.”
*****
“Damn it.”
I turned the channel as it was at the man’s greasy smile. I don’t have the slightest desire to see the same man smiling even if a pretty woman appears.
“No, what the hell is this?”
Lying on the bed, I looked up at the ceiling and murmured. I can’t understand why I’m here right now.
Obviously I’m Korean…
“You fucking don’t know my name.”
Even when I think of cancer, my name, that is, my original name other than the name of the character, a horned man, cannot come to mind. I remember everything except the name, but the only thing I couldn’t remember was the name. I feel like I’m really going crazy.
“However…”
I got up and looked around.
Almost 20 of my original rooms were connected, and the spacious room was filled with luxurious furniture, and in particular, a hero figure was displayed on one wall. Even if you sell that alone, it will come out well.
“It’s good, it’s good.”
It was so much better than the room I used to use, so I felt resentment for some reason. Do you feel defeated by the world in the game?
But I can’t help it.
This is because when I used the parent option, I set the property setting to the top 0.1% of the parent settings. In other words, my parents in the game were chaebol and I was the second generation of chaebol. Honey.
But here’s one more thing I’ve set aside, so that’s-
[Next news. The operation to arrest Villains 〈 High Fog 〉 and 〈 Hazel Foxy 〉 has failed. It is said that many of the 13 heroes and 200 police personnel who were dispatched to catch the two villains were injured one after another. As a result, voices reprimanding Hero 〈 Romanticist 〉, who commanded the operation, are getting louder…]
“Because I’m 30…They’re both 50, but they’re still active.”
I muttered as I watched the news.
The villains 〈 High Fog 〉 and 〈 Hazel Foxy 〉, who are making a lot of noise in the news right now, were my parents. Hi Fogg is the father and Hazel Foxy is the mother.
The two, who had been living as villains since their teens, met by chance while being chased by heroes. The two young men and women who passed the moment of crisis together instinctively fell in love, got married, had two children, and are still active in villain activities.
Among them, his father, High Fog, had a great entrepreneurial spirit and built a leading conglomerate in the Dark City and was able to become a conglomerate in the top 0.1%.
The setting called … Is my parent’s background setting. Well, it’s not that important.
Anyway, the important thing is that I am a villain and at the same time a child of the top 0.1% chaebol. Chaebol Gae Honey. No this is not
“I have to get out of here anyway…”
I looked around the room.
A splendid room that I would have been able to save even if I earned money for the rest of my life. Even this flashy, flashy room isn’t everything. When you go out the door, a new world unfolds that you have never seen before.
“Hmm.”
I looked around the room again.
Then, all of a sudden, I had this idea.
“Should I go back to normal?”
There are real families, not in games, but they are not so close that you would die if you didn’t see them that far. It’s been a long time since we’ve become close to each other.
It was a strange thing to have a friend since I saw and grew up with my parents fighting every day.
On the other hand, what about here?
Although it is a game world, I have a lot of money in my family, and above all, I have superpowers. One completed psychic power and 4 unopened psychic powers.
Is there anyone in this world who can knock me down? It is the power that I want to hear in my hand.
There was no big regret in reality, but there was no reason to struggle to go back.
“It wasn’t a family that was so affectionate anyway… Whatever happens, let’s just play together as a game?”
An unrealistically realistic sensation, touch, feel.
If you didn’t know not only the name but also the fact that this world is a game, it is a world so realistic that you would mistake it for reality. I thought it wouldn’t be bad to have fun and go.
“Ah… If I had known it would be like this, I would have named the character more carefully.”
If there is one thing I regret, it is that I made the name too playfully.
What is a man in heat? Sounds like the name of a guy who’s crazy about women, right? The right man of Balhae is a dog horn. Thousands of years have passed since Balhae was destroyed.
The good news is that you can hide your name.”
“From now on, I’m going to say James Val.
Smart-
“Are you inside, Bocchan?”
“Huh?”
Then, someone knocked on my door. Who is it? Since I just started playing the game, I didn’t know about the people around me except my parents.
I definitely want to play and go. I didn’t want NPCs to appear who had doubts about my identity after playing around.
What kind of personality was I originally?
Will he be arrogant like a chaebol? Or are you the surprisingly humble type? Or a tough guy for his size?
“Young master?”
As I was thinking about it, the door opened and a gray-haired old man entered.
“Uh?”
Then, a translucent rectangular window appeared in front of the old man’s face.
[Christopher Bentham (male/66 years old)]
[Relationship between characters: friendship]
[I’ve been working as a butler for the Bal family since before the player ‘Restrous Man’ was born. He cares for the main character’s brother and sister as if they were his own children, and fulfills any request from him. He knows everything about the foot family. The player ‘Restrous Man’ called Christopher Ventum ‘Uncle Chris’.]
[Presence of superpower: O]
[Possessed Super Power: Aesthetics of Violence (Lv.7)]
‘Wow.’
When I read what was written on the translucent window, I was in awe. Do you do something like this for beginners? Yes, every game should have a tutorial.
“Bocchan? Are you sick?”
As I stayed silent without answering, Chris approached me with a worried expression. Then, very casually, he placed his hand on my forehead to measure the temperature.
“I don’t have a fever… Are you sick somewhere else?”
“Uh… No. It’s just that Uncle Chris looks better today. If I were a girl, would he have fallen for me?”
“Huh-huh. Is that so? Actually, Bocchan hasn’t caught a cold since he was young.”
When he made a joke, Uncle Chris smiled. There was sincerity in his eyes looking at me, so I was a bit embarrassed. He had never seen such a look from his family.
“But what are you doing?”
“Even though it’s meal time, the young master didn’t come down, so I went up.”
“Oh, has it already happened?”
“Whoops.”
When I opened my eyes wide as if I didn’t know, Uncle Chris smiled and pointed at the watch. The hour hand was pointing to 10:00 AM.
I shrugged.
“It already happened.”
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
I went down the stairs with Uncle Chris. I didn’t know it because it was only in a large room like a playground, but it’s our house, our mansion. It’s a mansion that you only see in movies! Big! This is the conglomerate class!
Even if chaebol eat one meal, they will eat very differently, right? Looking forward to seeing how delicious the food will turn out.
And as I expected, on the table…
“…Uncle Chris, what is this?”
“Yes? What is it? This is the chicken breast salad that Bocchan always eats every morning.”
“…”
Was I Hell Chang?
*****
It seems I had a prejudice against chicken breast. There are so many negative comments about chicken breast, so I didn’t eat it in real life, but when I tried it this time, it was very delicious. I also liked the refreshing dressing that was sprinkled on the salad.
“This is delicious. One more, Uncle Chris, please.”
“It’s already six bowls? It’s not good to eat too much.”
“It’s all my uncle’s fault.”
“Me?”
“Yes. My uncle makes it delicious, so don’t you eat a lot?”
“Huh-huh. I’m glad it suits your taste.”
Uncle Chris smiled softly and put the bowl away, as if he had no intention of giving me more lip service. I asked as I stood up from the spot where I had washed my mouth with water.
“By the way, where are your father and mother? Have you gone to work?”
“Yes. Today, Dr. Crumola’s animal gene synthesis experiment, both of you went to work early.”
“Oh, I see. Then, Uncle, I’ll go upstairs.”
“Your son.”
*****
“Really.”
Christopher, who was tidying up the dishes, thought of something and called a man in heat. But he had already gone up.
I wanted to follow him and tell him, but soon he shrugged and turned around again.
“I’m a guy, but I’m sure you’ll keep in touch with each other.”
*****
“Wait?”
Before entering my room, I suddenly remembered what Uncle Chris had said.
‘Yes. Today is the day of Dr. Crumola’s animal gene-synthesis experiments, so both of you have gone to work early.’
“An animal gene-synthesis experiment?”
In hero movies, the person who appears in the birth of heroes and villains is a scientist or doctor.
Through these experiments, heroes are created, and villains are also created.
“Something… It smells like fun?”
I don’t think it’s bad to practice with a tutorial before proceeding with the main story I’ve planned in earnest.
