Murmur

The parliament was filled with the noise of lawmakers. They were all gathered in accordance with the Prime Minister’s emergency convocation order.

“What kind of fuss is this all of a sudden?”

“There was a story that there was a big commotion in the palace last night…”

“Could it be terrorism by rebels?”

“Isn’t that person the head of the Moralis Research Institute? Why is the author here?”

Several lawmakers were whispering as they looked at an old man sitting in the corner.

The old man’s face was full of age spots. A very old-looking face. He kept fiddling with the collar of his suit as if it felt awkward.

“Tsk… I should do at least one more experiment during this time…”

The director of the research center, who did not like the noisy atmosphere, grumbled.

How much time has passed? Everyone was present and waiting for the Prime Minister.

Suddenly

At that time, the door opened and the Prime Minister walked in.

He climbed onto the podium at a quick pace. Cold sweat was running down his face and his complexion was pale.

Since the prime minister always showed an arrogant and relaxed expression, the lawmakers were all surprised. And I definitely guessed that something serious had happened.

Whispering

“The prime minister’s condition looks a little bad?”

“It’s strange that your clothes are also disheveled.”

“Have you gained weight? It seems like my torso has become thicker.”

Hehehe

The Prime Minister cleared his throat, gathered everyone’s attention, and opened his mouth.

“I am sorry to have you here so suddenly. But last night, something very terrible happened in the palace.”

“What is happening?”

“Baron Anaclet Irving… conspired with the rebels to plot to assassinate His Majesty the King.”

“That… like that…!”

All the lawmakers were so embarrassed by the Prime Minister’s sudden shocking remarks that they were unable to speak. The Prime Minister took the opportunity to mention additional matters.

“Fortunately, thanks to the agents who provided support, the accident was prevented from occurring.”

“I’m so glad…”

“It’s worth the budget.”

The director of the research center in the corner looked proud. Telos is the result of his research lab. Therefore, the performance of the agents created through it is no different from the performance of the director of the research institute. He praised himself that way.

“All of you gathered here are heroes leading this country. We need to find a way to respond in the future.”

After speaking up to this point, the Prime Minister looked around and looked for Minho.

‘Now I’ve done everything I was told! Quickly release this bomb!’

The lawmakers shared their opinions among themselves about the prime minister who was restless in front of them.

“Let’s take this opportunity to nip the rebels in the bud!”

“But, the budget has already been set… Can the factory’s production be increased further?”

“Hmm… I think it might be possible if we take the risk of increasing the accident rate…”

tick tick

‘What do you mean?’

The Prime Minister lowered his head at the strange sound coming from below. A noise like something bouncing was coming from the Prime Minister’s stomach.

And there was a bomb on his ship.

“Holy shit! Make a promise…!”

Kwaangㅡ

An entire floor of the parliament building collapsed. All the windows were shattered, and the building was engulfed in flames, instantly spewing out black smoke.

Minho, who had been observing the Prime Minister from the rooftop of the building across from him, turned his back and headed toward the palace.

‘If we do this, even if there’s one tough guy out there, they won’t think we’re the culprits.’

Minho moved to the king’s office. Janey was waiting inside the office.

The King had already subdued and dealt with the Prime Minister last night.

Now, all the top parasites in the country have had their heads cut off.

Whether or not the Kingdom of Halem would be ruled by another country from now on was not Minho’s concern. Because he was not from this country, he had no patriotism or sense of duty.

Janey also had no ambition to rule the country, having lived as a puppet. She was just feeling relieved after getting revenge on the country that took her life.

“Shall we make a toast? Senior Janey.”

Janey looked at the glass of alcohol Minho handed her and said with a smile.

“You don’t have to call me senior anymore.”

Jing–

The world stopped with the sound of clinking glasses.

***

[The ‘Academy of the Fallen Kingdom’ trip provided by the Dimensional Travel Express Ticket has ended.]

[The avatars in the world of ‘Academy of the Fallen’ are separated.]

[Time in that world is now in sync with the tester’s reality.]

[The guidebook can no longer be used in that world.]

[Settlement of travel compensation.]

[Basic reward: 1000 mileage]

[Achievements: A sudden change in the character’s fate

[Final reward: 16000 mileage]

[Final evaluation: Reading history is fun, but what’s more interesting is making history. Testers enter a fictional world that was once nothing more than a fantasy and twist their fate. Now, the fate of that world is entirely up to them. Kudos to the testers for giving them the opportunity to write history in their own hands.]

[New feature ‘Baggage’ is now available.]

‘what’s this?’

The moment I toasted with Janey, the world suddenly stopped and bounced back to its original reality.

What’s the final reward there?

If this happens, won’t I be able to enter the ‘Academy of the Ruined Country’ again?

I quickly checked my travel destination.

“Phew… It’s still there.”

Fortunately, it seemed like he wasn’t permanently kicked out, and the options remained unchanged.

Reassuring my shocked heart, I looked at the printed message again. There were many things that were quite different from before.

‘There is nothing asking for permanent termination.’

Maybe you have to die and use a safe ejection to get the option of permanent termination.

There were many other phrases that seemed meaningful.

That time doesn’t stop, that you can’t use a guidebook.

‘This is like…’

It has changed to be no different from reality.

You’ll still be able to use your inventory and souvenirs, but that’s just the reality.

I focused on the phrases used in the final evaluation.

‘I twisted the predetermined fate.’

Is it because it didn’t follow the original story exactly? I don’t know who evaluated it, but he seemed to have given it high marks.

I thought that maybe the reason I had this ability was for something like that.

Giving freedom by liberating a world that is following the destiny written in the author’s hand. To remove the bonds of fate from the characters. Isn’t that why they wanted to create one complete world?

‘So now the world of the fallen academy has become a reality rather than a virtual world?’

I couldn’t find out everything through an unkind message.

It just reminded me of the things I did there.

Shaking my head

After thinking for a moment, I shook my head.

Anyway, even if it wasn’t for me, it wouldn’t have been a bright and hopeful world. Even if it is free from the influence of EDP-427 as in the original, it is ultimately not real but fake.

If what I did there made their world real, then I did a good thing.

Now they say they will write the future history… but what if that doesn’t happen? Who knows whether the world would have collapsed as the original story ended.

I decided to think so.

‘Anyway, what does it mean for the avatar to be separated?’

I thought about how the avatar of the world of Namhira had entered the recovery process. I thought maybe my body in that world would act on its own until I went on a trip again.

It seems like a feature that is provided since time can no longer be stopped.

There is a new feature added, ‘Baggage’.

It seems to be a function that determines whether or not to take a souvenir to the traveling world.

Basically, souvenirs apply to me, so I can use them when I want to put restrictions on myself.

dump

“Ha… it was hard.”

I laid my body down on the bed.

Because the worldview was so dark, I was stressed out without knowing it. I’m glad that blowing up the parliament at the end relieved some of the frustration.

I lay down and rested for a while, opened the menu, and registered my souvenir.

[Would you like to permanently register ‘Telos – Ignis’ in the menu? 1000 mileage is consumed.]

[YES] [NO]

I selected [YES].

Hwareuk

“Oh……”

Superpowers used in real life are always surprising.

After playing with fire for a while, I also invested mileage into my abilities.

‘From what I’ve experienced, agility and intelligence are less important.’

It seemed that agility affected reaction speed, and intelligence had an effect on thinking ability and mental ability.

However, the problem for me was that, thanks to the effect of high-speed thinking and the title, I relatively did not feel the increase in two abilities.

On the other hand, the effects of strength and stamina were felt immediately.

What I felt while learning Alvaroi fighting techniques is that strength ability also affects the durability of the body.

It felt like my body was evolving to handle the increased strength.

Physical strength ability affected not only endurance but also recovery speed.

After I noticed that even if I got hit, I took less damage and recovered faster than other people, I was able to act more proactively.

Both strength and stamina stats have been increased to 10. This time, unlike last time, I used my mileage step by step, taking time to get used to it.

Wow!

“Keu…”

In an instant, the 7,000 mileage disappeared and my whole body was overflowing with vitality, as if I had taken medicine.

When I checked the mirror, it looked no different than before, but my muscles had become as hard as steel.

The size of the inventory has also been expanded.

In addition to making it 1000㎥ in size, an additional 4400 mileage was consumed.

Now the remaining mileage is 3800 mileage. In an instant, my wallet shrunk again.

But I didn’t feel like I had to work hard to earn mileage right away. For the time being, I plan to take a break and clear my head.

And just the right world was waiting for me.

“Patient is awake!”
