Emperor! Can You See Stats!?
# Players
Yurius' consciousness has been sucked back into the video. Now he looks around in a familiar mood. I've seen this place before.
‘This is where they received their first quest? ’
The first thing he saw was a temple where three players had joined. The appearance of the temple was not different from before, but the people who gathered were different from before.
It was not only the first time he noticed, but also the three invited players.
Emperor Charnos, a blonde in a gorgeous outfit and a crown.
A woman with a slight regrettable look on her dress with ornaments. Holy Mother Dimia.
An Asian man in a blue robe, smiling meaninglessly.
And in front of them were hundreds of people with solemn expressions.
The High Septon in white, the Knights in armor, and the Inquisitors in doctors. They are gathered here today for an important ceremony.
Dimia, who is staring at them with a complex face, mutters in small muttering.
“Too bad this place is sweet. Today's the day to leave. ”
She seemed genuinely disappointed. However, the Emperor accepts the word peacefully.
“Yes, this is the end of the rich film you enjoy as emperor. Eww…… ”
“I've been on this side for decades, and that's all you have to say? ”
She puckers her lips with an absurd look.
“Of course I care. You're the executive director of a large business. He's a high-powered man, and I'm just a white man when I get out. ”
The Emperor replied with a natural face.
“I can't stop it.... ”
She shakes her head to see if it's blocked. Maybe this bickering isn't just once or twice.
“Haha! We always get along. If you go out, why don't you make a living at all? ”
“Who!”
When they heard the words of the sliding eagle gate, the two of them panicked and shook hands.
“Anyway, why don't you start preparing? There's a lot of people waiting. ”
“Don't joke about falling liver! ”
“ ……. ”
Anyway, his intervention (?).
“Hmph! Hmph! Do you want me to run for mayor? ”
Emperor Sharnos came out of the crowd several times, clearing his throat. As he came out, the people hurriedly fell to the ground.
“Great Goddess! Meet the Emperor!”
“We meet the Emperor! ”
“Arise, all of you. ”
The Emperor ordered a bold expression. The gentleman looks like he's gaining some weight. But that didn't last long either.
“You've said everything you need to say and now we're going back? Everyone eat well and don't talk to the peasants about nobles. Okay?"
The officials bow again to the emperor who finished speaking carelessly with a smile.
“Your Highness.”
And that moment.
Tiring!
[Quest 'Calm Down! You cleared ".]
[With the rewards cleared, you can go back. Return to your original world.]
“ ……. ”
Yurius, who was just watching, was able to see what was going on.
You said the players disappeared from the world at the same time. ’
Yes, this must be when the Great Emperor settled the continent and completed the quest. That's why I got my right to go back to the world. But there was one question.
‘Then why is the Emperor still in the world? Did something happen? ’
“Oops! I got a disconnect button! ”
A sharp voice rang as if answering the question. It was the Holy Mother Dimia, and what they could see was Yurius, who had a little hologram button on one side of their vision.
Are you sure you want to disconnect? Yes/No]
“Then I'll go first. Let's come out of the capsule and see. ”
Fifty!
The hearing first pressed a cool button and disappeared from there. He hid his religion as if it had never existed before.
“Oh……. ”
All the officials who saw it were watching the scene with a surprised look on their faces.
Then it was Dimia who pressed the button.
“Do I have to come on time and not think useless? I'll see you then. ”
Fifty!
After she disappeared, too.
“Is it my turn now? ”
The emperor smiled and swept through his attendants once. They knew it was the end of the Emperor's turn, so they sent him with a thoughtless look.
“Khh. Your Majesty... ”
“The gods will remember the day they served you forever. ”
After all, he was the greatest emperor in the world. The feelings of the officials who send him away will be hard to pronounce.
“Hmm?"
But the Emperor was watching them as if they were funny.
Pick!
Soon, he pressed the hologram. But nothing happens differently than before. The reason was obvious. The Emperor did not press Yes.
“ ……!? ”
“Your Majesty?”
The attendants want to talk to you about something strange. But...
Ser Leung
He draws his sword. Then he aims at his attendants.
“ ……!? ”
Paoaoaoaoang!
Even before the reaction was over, the emperor wielded his sword with a terrifying force.
Kuang!
“ ……!? ”
“Your Majesty! What is this……. ”
The speed at which the sword moves is nearly imperceptible to the knights. And where the sword is aiming!
Puang!
A thunderstorm blows and a man bounces back and crashes into the stone walls of the temple.
Kuang!
Sharp rock dust spreads and obscures vision.
“Huff!”
“Your Majesty... What is this? ”
They came to say goodbye to the Emperor, and you suddenly swing your sword at them! The officials were all shocked and unable to speak.
However, the emperor pointed his sword again with a ruthless expression.
Looking at the confused officials, the emperor opened his mouth quietly. His face was frozen like ice one day.
“Mister, what have you done to my man? ”
“Mister?”
The officials all tilted their heads. It was because there was only one person that the Emperor called that.
“ ……!? ”
They glare at the stone wall as if they were all bewitched. They panic.
“Huff!”
“No, even with your sword? ”
A young knight from the Sharnos Knights was just struck by the Emperor's sword. Of course, his skills do not allow him to receive the Great Sword.
However, the scene in front of their eyes now was to break that prediction all at once.
Tuk-tuk.
The young knight was so fine. I walked out of the dirt with a look on my face. I even laughed.
“Not bad. How did you know? ”
A young knight. No, Lee's hearing was interesting and asked the Emperor a question. He was possessed by the young knight in his sixth grade psychic battle.
* * *
Yurius notices when he gets there.
“Are you saying that León's body is in this hearing? ”
“Yes, that damn inspiration base. ”
The emperor frowned and accepted. Yurius felt something.
“What the……. ”
“I have more to show you. You'd better keep looking. ”
* * *
As soon as I saw the next video, it was a big flag that caught Yurius' eye.
Flutter.
The flag that was spread out in the air had these letters embroidered.
[Mosquito, World's Most Wanted, Man-Made Hearing]
“You inspiring piece of shit! You said you were over a hundred years old. Enough of your childish games! ”
The emperor shouted with a loud voice that said it was absurd. Lee was acting as a familiar Eastern man, not a knight who had just switched to someone else.
“Haha, I don't think you're talking about that. ”
Lee's hearing points to a flapping flag on the other side with a big smile.
[Catholic Catholic Church]
“Tsk! Maggio... You've seen too much nonconformity in that world, haven't you? ”
“Ugh!"
The Emperor's face turned slightly red. It was not a tribal parchment, nor the Catholic Church or the Muslim monk or the Naming Sense.
“Ha……. ”
The emperor scratches his head and opens his mouth with a serious look.
“Let's just ask why. I don't know why this isn't working. ”
“Simple.”
Lee replied quietly.
“I've been thinking about this since before I entered the capsule. even if it's not virtual space. ”
“ ……!? ”
“Don't you ever think the human lifespan is too short? ”
Lee's hearing became the first serious face.
“The path of the Blade is too wide and the lifespan of humans is too short. I had no choice but to reach the pole. ”
Originally, Lee was a purely zero-gravity fanatic who had no interest but in polishing the public. But he also had one problem. It's the fear of old age and death as he grows old!
“I forgot erosion to forget about it, so I went into training. When I was over forty years old. ”
At the end of his hard work, he reached the sixth stage of the ultimate in portrait skills.
Originally, the power of the soul, the Force, became more powerful and more expressive according to the owner's desire. His case is Soul Warfare! By switching bodies, he gained a terrifying ability to extend life span.
However, Lee was not satisfied with it.
"Taking someone else's body is too great a risk. We have to find another way. ”
Unfortunately, the world he lives in is highly computerized, so everyone's personal information is carefully managed. Finding a replacement body was not easy, but above all, finding the right body to master the art of skirting was even harder.
“In the meantime, I heard a tempting offer. It's a project you've been working on. ”
Why did he participate in the virtual reality project when he was not interested in the immediate work beyond his original training? It was to find a way for him to train while maintaining eternal life.
Project [New World]
It was originally an ambitious plan to turn virtual space into another reality by moving souls. However, unexpected accidents caused them to fly to a completely different world.
Lee's hearing was truly embarrassing.
“There's nothing you can do to stop me, is there? I just want to stay here and train. ”
“ ……. ”
The emperor only watches Lee's hearing with a look of nonsense.
‘After living a long time, it must have tasted like crap. ’
That is, he will not obstruct the means and means for eternal life. It's not evil enough to take someone else's body in the first place, and you want me to ignore that?
Pot!
The emperor rushed at him with a look of boredom.
“Crazy old man! Go to the afterlife and practice! ”
“Phew.”
After that, the fight was immense. The mountain peak flew away and the sea split apart. When two unmanned men in Level 6 collided, there was an unreasonable aftermath.
The battle went on for a long time, but it was decided.
Phew!
The Great Sword pierced his throat. There was little difference between the two in the world under the system, but there was a difference between winning and losing.
“As expected, the flesh is rushed. If I had been a little better, I would have won. ”
Lee closed his eyes quietly, expressing his regrets.
* * *
“Then isn't it over already? Why did he resurrect? ”
Yurius looks at the outcome of the battle and asks the Emperor a question as if it were a misunderstanding. The duel between the Great King and Lee was one-on-one. The result is the Emperor's triumph without any gaps in his body. Then, how did he live?
“Phew... That was my mistake from there. ”
“A mistake?”
The emperor sighed and continued speaking.
“There's a reason systems exist in this world. Why is there a game-like system in this world? Only for certain people. ”
“ ……!? ”
It was an accident for three people, including the Grand Duke, to move into this world. But at the same time, they were connected to the capsule.
“That's why the three of us, as mediators, have been brought here by a virtual reality system. ”
Their connected systems were managed by a total of three powerful AI computers.
Odin, Medite, Mars
As these systems merged into this world, they gained a kind of God-like power. There was a problem.
“And that damn inspiration is one of the administrators of the system. ”
Unfortunately, Lee was a key figure in the project. It was a natural result because he could not carry out the work of separating and transferring souls without him.
He's not dead. No, I couldn't die.
“Have you heard of circulation? ”
“Isn't it dying and being reborn? ”
In Yurius' reply, the Emperor nods.
“Yes, but we don't belong here. Because only the soul has entered this world through a capsule. ”
Originally, when life died in this world, it was reborn according to the ring of the Council of Leans. However, players from other worlds did not. The soul of the Hearing Gate lost its way into the capsule's system and gained administrative authority.
“If so?”
“Yes, even artificial intelligence can manipulate computers. That's the old man. ”
Yurius had only just begun to understand what he had heard from the Holy Land.
The great man who spoke in the Holy Kingdom, who was called God, was the one who heard the hearing.
In other words, the kingdom of God was in His hands in the beginning. The god who speaks in the Holy Nation spoke of a system that moves according to the will of Lee, the manager.
“Ah……. ”
Yurius had only just found out all the innards. That's why Leon was possessed by another creature.
“Now you understand. He cannot come out of this world, but it is possible to take over another person's body through the power of the Soul Transition. ”
“He had a poor fate, too. ”
In order to train and to defeat the annoying impediment, Emperor Sharnos, Lee wanted a body that was as talented as the emperor. That's why Leon was chosen.
Yurius smiles bitterly.
‘Then I had no choice but to be executed in my previous life. ’
Perhaps Leon was already possessed by the Lee hearing at the time he was executed.
Here, Yurius faces his final question.
“Then why did you turn back the clock? For giving me a chance. ”
The Emperor borrowed the power of Heimdall, the original master of the world, to turn back time and give him the player's ability.
‘Regression is understandable. If the hearings get back in the flesh, it'll be a problem. ’
But did you need to give him a new opportunity? He was an ordinary aristocrat all his life.
“The original reason was nothing. ”
The emperor expressed his apology slightly.
“First of all, deception. ”
“A trick?”
“Yes, the more you stand out, the less attention you have on your sister, right? ”
“ ……. ”
As expected, Yurius was forced to frown.
“So Leon used me to keep me out of the sanctuary's sight? ”
“Let's just say I'm sorry about this. I had no choice. ”
“Knng... ”
The emperor lowered his head slightly, expressing his sincere apology. The first reason he revealed was to hide Leon's existence.
With Yurius' ability to see stats and knowledge before regression, Yurius was able to rise above Leonhard and become a prominent successor to the throne.
There, the emperor sent the order of the Church to Leon precisely. However, if we look closely into the inner sanctuary, Leon has never responded to their requests first. Only the Church or the Bridge touched Yurius first!
That is why Yurius lost his reputation on the continent and defeated the religious sects or martyrs. In the Holy Land, he sent lions thinking Yurius was a new man, not Leon.
Though the Holy Nation noticed in the middle and failed, this operation was clearly effective. The problem was that the emperor was playing with him, so he had to be hot.
"Isn't this guy just wandering the streets trying to kill me? ’
He carefully examines Yurius.
“ ……. ”
However, there was no change in Yurius' expression at this time.
“I see. What's the second reason, then? ”
“Huh? You're not mad? ”
“I'm angry.”
Yurius shakes his head. Honestly, it was in many ways unpleasant to control him in the name of God, ancestor or quest.
“But without regression, I can't just be mad because I didn't get a chance. ”
“Ugh…. ”
“There's another reason for that, and it's not too late to hear it and be angry. ”
‘He's smart, too. ’
When he heard the answer, the emperor was amazed. In fact, what he had originally hoped for from Yurius was a trick, but not anymore.
And Yurius found out that the Emperor had a poor request and replied:
“Hmmm... Then I'll tell you the second reason. ”
The emperor bows his head.
“I want you to stop that damn old man. ”
‘As expected……. ’
Yurius kicks his tongue into his stomach.
“Why should I? ”
Yurius wondered why, though he had expected so little. His abilities are still far less than those of other players like the Great King or the Eagle Gate. The evidence proves that he was completely defeated a week ago and is still lying there.
‘From the video, the Emperor has beaten Yi Chung a few times. Why are you asking me? ’
The emperor shook his head.
“Even if I defeat the old man, it doesn't matter. Have you ever heard of PvP? ”
“Does this mean a battle between players? ”
“Yes, he and I are from the same world. and it's being affected by the same system. We can't die if we want to. ”
Swook
The emperor slit his throat with the capital.
Blah!
Blood spills out of his throat, but he's not dead.
“Ouch... That hurts. ”
The emperor continued to speak with arrogance.
“Virtual reality systems are not capable of permanent death by suicide or NPC due to safety issues, nor are players counting due to perceived combat as simply PvP. ”
Is that why you didn't die when you were pierced by the boat? ’
Yurius recalls the old footage for a moment. The emperor suffered serious injuries when he first came here, but soon all his wounds were healed. That's because the system treats ordinary people in the world as NPCs.
“Then there's no way to stop him, is there? ”
Here he tilts his head. Then I don't know what it means to explain so hard. As I said, the Great Sage and the Eagle Gate could not die.
1. People in this world are treated as NPCs and come back to life even if they kill them.
2. If the opponent is a player in the same world, the system will treat the player as a PvP and revive the player.
After all, it's like being invincible in any case, right?
However, Yurius, who was thinking of the bear, felt something else.
"Wait… Player? ’
Yurius feels a lightning bolt in his head. All puzzles are now connected.
“Ah!”
“Now you've noticed. ”
The emperor grimaced and pointed at Yurius.
“You're the only one who can kill him and banish him from this world. ”
The principle was simple. First, Yurius was born in this world, so he is a human being here. However, given the player's authority, they will not be treated as NPCs.
[As a human being in this world, you gain the power of the player.]
This was the only way to defeat the player, a person from another world, forever. All the quests he has done so far have been a process of gaining the player's authority.
‘By the way, the more quests you complete, the more authority you have as a player to handle them, right? ’
As soon as I knew it, a notification window appeared in Yurius' eyes again.
Tiring!
[You received the required quest 'Player Awakening’.]
