Episode 8. Revival Legend.

went to the army

The Marine Corps, which I thought was the toughest at my level.

Of course, he enlisted in the evacuation army.

Fortunately, no one in the family stopped this.

Because the military is an unavoidable place for any man born in Korea.

Especially, if you were a 4th-generation chaebol born with a diamond spoon like me, it was natural for the public to focus more and more.

But there was a problem.

right after discharge.

I couldn’t afford to go back to school.

Because there is a midterm exam waiting to reveal everything about me.

And the appearance of not returning to school even after I was discharged from the military made me question my father and all of my family.

The reason that I took a leave of absence without completing less than a semester after entering Seoul National University’s business department at the top was a convincing excuse that I was in the military, but there was no excuse for not returning to school even after being discharged from the military.

Of course, my father’s decree that if I didn’t go back to school immediately, I would cut off all applications.

And his father kept his word.

While urging his mother, brother and sister to never give me any support.

To be honest, I was relieved back then.



Because I thought this was better than getting everything exposed.

Of course, he didn’t just get kicked out naked.

Her mother saved her room.

Maybe because he wants to return to school at any time, near Seoul National University.

It’s just the smallest room I’ve ever lived in.

It was the first time I had ever seen a room in which the kitchen, living room and sleeping room were combined into one.

There is also such a small bathroom.

She cried that she was sorry she couldn’t find a better one as her mother saved the room.

I told her mom it was okay with that.

Because he’s not a father who doesn’t know her mother’s behavior.

This is just the Maginot line that my father allowed.

He handed him 5 million won along with the luggage he had brought from her home, and her mother went home.

with the words that you love me.

And make sure to call at least once a week.

Life began in a place called one-room, which I had never heard of before.

Of course, I had to do several part-time jobs that I had never done before.

3 years later.

Inside the tallest building in Manhattan, New York, USA.

A group of people sat around a table and talked.

“Do you think Europe and China noticed something?””Yes. They say they are hiding, but bustling movements have been caught everywhere.”

“Hmm… well. I’ve been hiding this for a long time.”

In response to the brown haired man’s answer, the man sitting at the top nodded his head.

And he immediately opened his mouth, looking at the person sitting at the end of the table.

“Once the Europeans and Chinese start moving, it will soon spread across the world.”

“Yes. The Strategy Department understands that too.”

To the man seated at the top, the man seated at the end of the table cautiously answered.

And as soon as he heard that answer, the man at the top asked again.

“Then how many people have reached max level that we have secured so far?”

“Yes. With a total of 1,089 people, 1042 people reached the max level during the 1st closed beta, and 47 people reached the max level during the 2nd closed beta.”

“What is your grade?”

“With a few exceptions, it’s generally grade C. After all, the end of the 1st and 2nd closed betas meant resetting, so after reaching max level, I did not hunt monsters anymore, and there were many cases where I flew the items I had as an attempt to strengthen them. There were also those who deleted skills and used up the Golden Rings they had collected so far to research a new skill tree.”

“Phew. that can’t be helped By the way, there is a stark difference between those who achieved max level in the 1st and 2nd rounds.”

“Yes. That’s why the difference in difficulty between the 1st and 2nd rounds was huge.”

“great. don’t say yes But have you still not found the 3rd Closed Beta max level? Or is it not at all?”

The man sitting at the top asked, showing a slight dissatisfaction.

Because the person who achieved the max level of the 1st and 2nd closed beta is very important, but the person who achieved the max level of the 3rd closed beta was more important.

And the person who was answering whether he felt that annoyance cleared his neck and carefully opened his mouth.

“That’s… There was a person who was very immersed in hunting to the extent that he easily reached the max level in the second round. After that, of course, I participated in the 3rd closed beta. But he said he didn’t go past level 250, even though he hunted to die. Moreover, the 3rd closed beta had a cut line. Those who do not achieve a certain level every day are forcibly terminated.”

“therefore?”

“Yes. In light of that, it is the judgment of our Strategy Department that no one has reached the max level of the 3rd Closed Beta.”

“What about the U.S. government and Shaype guys?”

“I understand that neither of them have been able to recruit the person who reached the max level of the 3rd Closed Beta. Moreover, we have shared information several times as a strategic partnership, and I understand that neither of them have reached the conclusion that no one has reached the max level of the 3rd Closed Beta.”

“Hmm.”

The man sitting at the top of the report crossed his arms with both hands, pinched his chin, and let out a long saliva.

And he soon broke his sleep and opened his mouth.

“great. We also end the investigation of those who have reached the max level of the 3rd Closed Beta here. Just put the ball on the other side. The grade doesn’t matter. Only work hard to find more people who have reached the max level of the 1st and 2nd Closed Beta. In particular, convince them that they will grant you everything you want if you find someone who has reached the max level of the 2nd Closed Beta. Even if the US government doesn’t know, it’s absolutely unbearable for the Shaype people to lose their talents. Of course, even for Europeans and Chinese guys.”

“Yes.”

“And if we don’t convince them to the end, kidnap them. If even that doesn’t work… kill him.”

“all right.”

After that, the meeting went on for a while.

And just before the meeting ended, everyone at the top of the table looked at each other and opened their mouths.

“Finally, as well as the users who have reached the max level of the 1st and 2nd closed betas that are specially managed, tell everyone under our control not to die. The fact that the number of deaths has been added to the status window despite the loss of experience that occurs when you die and the penalty of being banned for 24 hours is proof that there may be other penalties in the future.”

“Yes. I will definitely instruct them to do party hunting in all dangerous hunting grounds.”

“great. all in mind In the future, everything will be decided by ‘Revival Legend’. Concentrate all your abilities on ‘Revival Legend’.”

“Yes!”

“all right!”

Thus, the meeting of Holdledge, one of the three major powers in the United States with the US government, Shaype and the two, ended.

A cafe located at the back of Gwanaksan Mountain.

with daughter.

“welcome.”

He opened the door and smiled at the couple entering.

Of course, it was very awkward and difficult at first to respond like this.

However, as the saying goes, the first is difficult, the next is easy, and gradually, I came to a point where I did it naturally.

A couple of men and women approaching the counter soon.

“Would you like to order?”

“Two iced Americanos, please.”

“Yes. all right.”

As soon as I took my order, I naturally turned on the coffee machine.

Because it is located in a remote place, I have to do everything from ordering to manufacturing and serving.

The fact that there weren’t that many guests was a factor.

Soon after, he took two glasses of iced Americano and walked over to her and her husband and wife.

And as I got closer, I could hear the conversation between the man and woman.

“Hey. What the hell is that game, you don’t even come to class?”

“there is. Very fun.”

“you. So, how are you going to graduate? This is Seoul National University, Seoul National University. You will never graduate if you do it.”

“Huh. If you don’t let me graduate, I’ll just throw you away.”

A woman frowning at a man’s confident appearance.

He looked at the man with a confused gaze.

Because he looked like he was hung up on the game like I used to.

Anyway, the couple’s conversation continued until I put an iced Americano down in front of them.

“So what is that game?”

“A revival legend.”

flinch.

For a moment, my body trembled involuntarily.

Because the title the man said is not unusual.

Because what I did was ‘Forgotten Legend’, which means a forgotten legend.

But what came out of the man’s mouth was ‘Revival Legend’, which means a revived legend.

Of course it may not be.

However, the thought that the two were somehow related never left my mind.

So I immediately picked up my phone and wanted to check it out.

But I didn’t.

because I was afraid

maybe it is

At one point, I searched the homepage of ‘Forgotten Legend’ in the search bar every hour, not every day.

Of course, the missing website did not appear.

And every time I did, I thought about posting the strange things I experienced on the Internet to find the traces of ‘Forgotten Legend’.

But in the end it didn’t.

Because even then, I still felt reluctant to talk to others.

Then I took an interest in it.

‘Cause I’ve fallen into the abyss

If it had not flown so high, the impact of the fall would not have been great.

However, Seoul National University was too high for me, who had a difficult second year in the countryside, let alone a university in Seoul in the 4th year.

Moreover, admission as an overall senior took me out of the atmosphere.

It was about to appear in newspapers and news.

So, I worked at a cafe in this remote place.

To avoid everyone’s gaze as much as possible.

Of course, the hourly wage is also paid.

But in the meantime, I heard ‘Revival Legend’.

shaking.

The desire to check immediately and the mind to decide what to do with it competed with each other.

My body trembled uncontrollably at the competition.

But in the end, I carefully picked up my phone and went to the Internet and searched for ‘Revival Legend’.

Soon after, a website appeared.

‘Isn’t it? It won’t be.’

My heart was pounding.

Moreover, for a while, I didn’t even search for the word ‘Legend’, let alone ‘Forgotten Legend’.

Because that was the only way to recover from the shock that fell into the abyss.

Anyway, as soon as I clicked with trembling hands, the screen of the homepage appeared.

The first screen is different from ‘Forgotten Legend’.

But without hesitation, I started looking around.

First of all, it’s too early to judge everything based on the first screen.

And how long has it been since you browsed the website?

shaking.

My body was shaking involuntarily.

To the extent that it cannot be compared to before.

because I knew

The name is different, but that’s the game I played.
