*** ***

I raised both hands and washed my face dry. My eyes stung from pressing with too much force, but that wasn’t the problem right now.

I was Hocheonan.

He was originally a person who lived in this martial forest.

So what am I?

What was I like when I lived in Korea? When I lifted my palm from my face, I immediately saw the chat with the guy.

[Reincarnation Truck: Are you out of your mind?]

After seeing the chat, I unconsciously put my hands on the keyboard.

[Hocheonan: What am I?]

[Ho Cheon-an: Why were you on Earth and why did you come back to the martial arts world?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Calm down]

[Reincarnation Truck: I know it’s not easy to calm down.]

[Reincarnation Truck: But now that you have realized something important, we can talk more naturally.]

[Reincarnation Truck: I said earlier that I received a favor from someone.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Whose request was it?]

My head, confused by my identity, was forced to cool down. Because there were still things more important than my identity.

The life and death of my grandfather, mother, and father.

[Ho Cheon-an: More than that.]

[Ho Cheon-an: What about your mother? My father? What about grandfather?]

The reincarnation truck answered after a moment.

[Reincarnation Truck: You already know.]

Quaaaang!

Without realizing it, I hit the desk with all my might. It was a punch with enough force to shatter it with a rock, but the keyboard and desk were intact.

….actually, I knew it.

Two tombs located outside. And the skeleton lying at the entrance.

The costume and sword worn by the skeleton belonged to my grandfather in my last memories.

“Ha…Haha…”

[Hocheonan: Why?]

[Hocheonan: Why? for what reason? why?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Calm down]

[Reincarnation Truck: There is still a story left to be told.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Did I say I received a favor earlier?]

[Reincarnation Truck: I received a favor from your grandfather.]

grandfather.

When the word grandfather came out, the anger that had been boiling over cooled down a little.

[Reincarnation Truck: Your grandfather was at the last moment…um…yeah. You did a fable deungseon (羽化登仙). So he reached me.]

[Reincarnation Truck: And he asked me to take care of you.]

[Reincarnation Truck: But you were in a very serious condition at that time.]

….serious condition.

It was something that even a head filled with excitement could understand. Was I at that time… a being that could be called a human being?

[Reincarnation Truck: Now you know, your mind was very unstable at the time. That’s why I took you out of this martial arts forest for a while.]

[Hocheonan: Is that Earth?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Yes]

[Ho Cheon-an: That doesn’t make sense.]

okay. Let’s say I’m from this world. And let’s say the game Murim World is a game modeled after this martial arts game.

[Ho Cheon-an: But why is the future embodied in the game Murim World?]

[Hocheonan: What about enlightenment?]

[Hocheonan: How can we know the enlightenment of all people in the world?]

[Hocheonan: Are you saying that your power can even control the future?]

[Ho Cheon-an: It seems that such an omniscient and omnipotent person is putting me in such a complicated situation and not even giving me a proper answer?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Calm down.]

[Reincarnation Truck: It will be easier for you to understand if I first correct a few misunderstandings.]

[Reincarnation Truck: First of all, the game Murimcheonha is not the future of Murimcheonha.]

What nonsense.

[Reincarnation Truck: Think carefully, Hocheonan.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Has the bandit alliance ever attacked Sichuan Province?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Has a Murim person ever become a Geumuiwi instructor?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Will the future of the trainees you taught be the same as the future you knew?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Jeongcheol’s actions and the launch of the Apostolic Alliance.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Has something like that ever happened in the martial arts world you played?]

[Ho Cheon-an: Of course there wasn’t.]

[Ho Cheon-an: That is.]

My typing hands stopped.

The incidents listed are…things I did after entering this world of martial arts.

[Reincarnation Truck: Let’s make an analogy.]

[Reincarnation Truck: If Adolf Hitler had not been born, wouldn’t World War II have occurred?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Well, you never know. Even if Adolf Hitler had not existed, the dissatisfaction of the German people who suffered from the enormous post-war reparations of World War I would not have disappeared.]

[Reincarnation Truck: World War II may not have happened, but let’s say it did.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Even if war had occurred, if Adolf Hitler had not existed and the Nazis had not been born, would the history of the Earth have been the same as it is now?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Can the results of a simulation that forcibly assumes that Adolf Hitler did not exist, even though he actually existed, be called ‘history’?]

[Reincarnation Truck: It’s like that.]

[Reincarnation Truck: The game Murim Heaven is a simulation that excludes the outcome of the fact that a being called you definitely exists in this martial arts world.]

[Reincarnation Truck: It’s like an alternate history novel that begins under the assumption that a certain person never existed.]

“…”

Yeo Il-ye, Hyuk Qilin, Tang So-yeol… these people existed in the game Murim World, and their realizations were also implemented as information in the game Murim World.

However, the life they live now is completely different from the martial arts world in the game. why? Because I didn’t exist.

So, it was just my illusion to say that the game Wulin World had a future in it. Does this mean that the scenario of the game Wulin World is not the real future?

[Ho Cheon-an: Yes, I understand.]

[Ho Cheon-an: It was inevitable that I would get hit by a truck and return to this world of martial arts.]

[Ho Cheon-an: This means that the martial arts world in the game is not the future because it is a fiction or a delusion whose inevitability has been deleted.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Yes.]

…I understand.

Because Wulin Heaven did not go as I expected.

If you think about it carefully, the game Wurim Heaven could not perfectly embody the current martial arts world.

The evidence was the Bodhi Lotus Flower Tale.

It was only now that I thought about it, but there was a high possibility that Bodhi Lotus Tale did not exist in the game Murim World.

Players who perfectly understand the harvest times of every herb and precious commodity in the world.

It was a world full of crazy players who even searched for Hwari Pond, which could not be entered except in the river water area of a certain year, so how could such people not have invaded Podalap Palace?

It may have been a small coincidence, but there was no way I wouldn’t have discovered something as huge as the barley lotus flower dam.

Does this mean that the martial arts world he created wasn’t perfect?

At this point, a fundamental question arose.

[Ho Cheon-an: Why did you send me to Earth?]

[Ho Cheon-an: If my condition wasn’t good, wouldn’t you have just hid it in a suitable place?]

[Ho Cheon-an: Did we really have to force them to move to another dimension?]

[Ho Cheon-an: And I wonder whether a cumbersome process should have been necessary to reverse it like this.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Another key question has come up.]

[Reincarnation Truck: You might be wondering why I sent you to Earth.]

[Reincarnation Truck: To know the reason, we need another piece of prior information.]

[Reincarnation Truck: For what purpose did your maternal grandfather spread Dafa to you?]

“….”

It’s purpose.

Okay, I forgot about that.

Under the circumstances, my mother, father, and grandfather put impurities into my body.

What special talent did I have?

And did my maternal grandfather take advantage of my talent and did my mother and father try to erase that talent to protect me from my grandfather’s hands?

[Hocheonan: Do you know the reason?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Yes.]

Reincarnation Truck’s answer confused me again.

[Reincarnation Truck: Your maternal grandfather tried to make you a ‘Hocheonan’.]

…It was a completely unexpected answer.

At best, I thought they would create a monster like Hyeolgangsi or create a successor with heavenly talent like Cheonmujiche and aim for something like martial arts unity.

[Reincarnation Truck: Regardless of personality, it was a great idea.]

[Reincarnation Truck: What was even more surprising was that he actually put it into practice and came close to success.]

[Reincarnation Truck: However, those who break the law of heaven will face the consequences one day.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Was it meaningless?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Anyway, you had the ‘ability to see the enlightenment of others.’]

[Reincarnation Truck: That’s why I accepted your grandfather’s request and at the same time moved your soul to Earth.]

“….”

[Reincarnation Truck: The potential your mother, father, and grandfather had in you.]

[Reincarnation Truck: We almost succeeded in erasing the ‘ability to see the enlightenment of others.’]

[Reincarnation Truck: If only 3 to 4 years had passed, your abilities would have completely disappeared. He would have become a truly ordinary person like me, for whom even the expedient method of separating souls would not work.]

[Hocheonan: So, to use my abilities.]

[Ho Cheon-an: You sent me to Earth?]

[Reincarnation Truck: You didn’t think of me as someone with long legs, did you?]

[Reincarnation Truck: Even if you feel betrayed, there is nothing you can do.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Of course, I didn’t do this just for my benefit. It was part of a reasonable judgment.]

[Reincarnation Truck: As I said before, your mind and soul have suffered a major blow.]

[Reincarnation Truck: If it had stayed in that body whose pores were clogged with [miscellaneous blood], it would have withered and died.]

[Ho Cheon-an: …Continue.]

[Reincarnation Truck: When you decide that your soul and mind are sufficiently stable while living on Earth. I created and released Murim Heaven.]

“Ha.”

He let out a sigh in his voice.

okay. In fact, the release of Murimcheonha itself was a strange game.

If you make a martial arts game, who will be the main consumer?

It’s China.

However, in China, martial arts is subject to censorship. In such a situation, what kind of crazy game company would invest the capital and technology required to create a AAA game to create a martial arts game?

[Reincarnation Truck: Game Wulin Heaven was created for various roles.]

[Reincarnation Truck: Of course, the main goal was to act as a kind of connector to use your ‘ability to see the enlightenment of others.’]

[Reincarnation Truck: It was also a learning device that created the foundation for a 15-year-old child who was trapped in a small camp and had no idea about the world to survive on his own.]

[Reincarnation Truck: It also played a role in stimulating memories trapped in your unconscious.]

[Ho Cheon-an: …So.]

[Hocheonan: I created Hocheonan in the game Murim World and saw the characters’ enlightenment.]

[Ho Cheon-an: You said you saw the person’s enlightenment through the power of my soul?]

[Reincarnation Truck: (YES biting bird emoticon).]

I’m really dizzy.

I felt like everything I knew was turned upside down.
