The Tutorial Is Too Hard

Arena of Competition (13)

[Park Jung-ah]

“I want to go too! ”

Yong lifted his hand and shouted.

As soon as I explained about the district, Yong had a strong interest.

There won't be any problem with dragons going to the district.

There's going to be a big conference, people from all walks of life, but it's a minority.

The common areas of the district are half empty, and there were not many people who came from other dimensions with permission or meeting participants.

Rather, it can be safer than South Korea's territory.

There's basically only a handful of stranded people in the zones of the Earth, so we can minimize the damage in case of an accident.

Hotch was excited and dried dragons running around with his hands up.

“Yong Yong, there could be other dimensions of people there, and it could be dangerous. ”

“I'm coming to get you! ”

I had no choice but to flinch.

I looked around pretending to be nothing, and I met People-Woong.

He gives you a sad look back.

I tried to hide my frustrating feelings and asked dragons what they meant.

Yong-yong's aunt said, fortunately, it meant Yeon-hee Lee who came to the tent yesterday, not me.

I'm not sure if this is a good thing.

The age difference between Yeon-hee and me... Let's not think about it.

I felt a little sad for her because she thought I looked like a lady or something more.

“What do you mean, Yong Yong? You're going after Lee Yeon-hee! ”

Hotch asked Yong-yong, admiring him.

Yong-yong explained his thoughts to Jogonzon Hotch.

Lee Yeon-hee hasn't recovered from yesterday's blow, so she said she would go and get it herself.

용용이 Somehow he was proud of his face.

Maybe they think it's a good plan.

Hotch, of course, couldn't help but be shocked.

So am I.

There were two reasons for the decision of 용용이.

My guess is that Lee Yeon-hee hasn't recovered yet.

It was also a way to go to another dimension with Yeon-hee Lee through the district.

Of course, there was a reason, but I was surprised that such a child decided to grab the opponent as soon as the conditions were met.

Is there really no problem with his emotional education?

I knew I shouldn't have interfered, but I had to worry.

Hotch was hell-bent on trying to stop Yong Yong from catching Yeon-hee.

I was bringing out snacks from the market, childhood promises, surprise gifts, and all sorts of other distractions, but they weren't working.

“Then he won't like it. You might get in trouble.”

“Huh? No, Dad would love that. ”

“Oh... is that so? ”

It was clear who the father they were talking about was.

If there is a problem with Yong's home education, it has become clear who the culprit is.

“Then he hates it! No!”

Now I thought I should help him, seeing Hotch's desperate efforts to write a flock of dragons like a child.

“Yong Yong, even if you go to the district, you won't be able to find Yeon-hee. You don't know what dimension Lee Yeon-hee went to. ”

We don't know exactly how many other dimensions entered the competition.

I wondered how Lee Yeon-hee entered the other dimension with permission.

Basically the inter-dimensional portal was closed and the portal was not run without both authorizations.

Even if Lee Yeon-hee didn't have a face with other dimensions, we couldn't figure out what dimension she just let her in and closed the portal right after.

“I can figure that out. ”

Yong said, pointing to himself.

Somehow, he looked proud again.

I glanced at Hotch before asking Yong Yong again.

He nods very small.

It's traceable?

“But you won't be able to make it if you don't open the portal from your side. ”

“I can open that, too. ”

Again, Yong said with a proud expression.

I looked at Hotch again, and he nodded a very small head again.

“Then shall we go after him together? ”

* * *

[Ehochi]

Ten years.

I can't believe Park Jung-ah would betray me there.

Park Junga immediately shifted her stance as soon as she learned that Yong can really visit Yeon-hee Lee.

It was a decision that it was better for self or other vigilantes to follow and fix the accident as much as possible than for Yong-yong to go over the other dimension and have an accident, but it was not the right decision.

The right decision is not to send dragons.

Fortunately, Hojae intervened when he thought it would be difficult to break Dragon's stubbornness.

Hojae clearly told Yong-yong not to look for Yeon-hee Lee.

용용이 had to end neatly if ever, and was confused by instructions contrary to Round's teachings that if the enemy did not recover from the moribund state, he should not miss the opportunity.

Hojae explained that Lee Yeon-hee is an enemy who will come for her soon and should come for her.

I couldn't convince him, but Yong accepted that.

I decided to postpone my next trip to the district and first meet the people who wanted to meet me.

The first thing I decided to do was meet with a Korean government official.

“How do you do?"

The government official who came to the room had a quite different impression than I expected.

I was younger than I thought.

I was expecting a bald man with a bit of a belly and a light-headed head when the government greeted me.

Why aren't there people like Congressmen on TV?

Of course, I had never seen a TV, never seen a congressman, but I was expecting someone more or less like that.

But what really came to me was a youthful-looking young man who appeared to be a little less frail at a relatively young age.

In fact, I took off a little.

“The ROK government will enter into agreements that will benefit each other using all means possible. Assuming, of course, you finish the tutorial and come out. ”

“Oh, yes……. ”

The man told me more boring things than I thought.

Although I did not expect the interview to develop spectacularly, the man's story was much more boring than expected.

The man spoke first about the contract and added a bypass criticism of the Awakenings in action with the Korean government.

Next, he boasted about himself.

I really do.

No kidding, the man boasted before me.

He was a very advanced person and talked about the position he occupied in the civil society and the treatment he would receive when he left the tutorial.

When I explained the contract, I did not expect to show myself in a strange way.

It was more annoying than I thought, listening to bragging that I didn't care about.

I thought it was good to leave the dragon to the people.

Let's have a drink and continue the conversation. I had to send him back to the excuse that he was tired.

In fact, I was mentally exhausted.

“You're a strange man. ”

Park gave me a nod.

“You don't look like you're capable enough to be there. ”

Park Junga nods again.

“You're not capable. Rather, he's incompetent and annoying to everyone around him. But."

“But?”

“relatively recently, in the tutorial. And he's a government official, and he's got a message for the vigilantes. The bridge between the tutorial and the government outside has become so important to him. ”

Park Junga added that there has always been a figure like that before him.

Maybe outside, there's a line of government officials who came to the tutorial.

It was a strange thing to hear.

At the same time, it was a topic that made no interest whatsoever.

Park Junga asked me if I would continue the meeting tomorrow.

I think she thought I'd stop meeting here.

I thought about it for a moment and said I would continue.

Of course, it was not a very pleasant meeting, but it was also a human experience.

Park Junga went back and spoke to Hojae.

Why?

“What did you think of him? ”

[What do you think? Scary.]

Scared of people.

However, it was also ambiguous to actively refute.

The strangest thing about a man's attitude was that he felt a great sense of superiority about himself and was showing it off.

That was the strangest thing.

None of what he boasted about was accomplished by his abilities.

I didn't think it was something I could boast about myself.

Well, maybe it's none of my business what you think, but I don't want to be out in the open about it.

I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm a little awake.

Even in the eyes of a complete stranger.

[It usually is.]

“Is that it? ”

[It's easier than taking everything with your abilities. Whatever it is, it's notoriety or status. Even if it is given by luck, it will soon become his ability.]

Is that so?

I didn't come that far.

Of course, my memories may be biased.

Hojae was a professional gamer who lived only with his skills, and after entering the tutorial, he bumped and broke and got what he wanted.

Other memories I had were also more familiar with essentially grabbing things through their efforts.

[The more effort and meaningless a society is, the more likely it is. That's the difference between the inside and the outside of the tutorial. If it's hard for a society to reverse its position with abilities, it's even harder for one to start with a rank from scratch.]

“Isn't Korea a capitalist? ”

[There's also a dividing class. Once the hierarchy is secured and the cycle disappears, it makes no difference. Oh, things could be different these days. There will be Awakenings. It's gonna be more fucked up.]

I thought about it for a moment.

It was a story that I had organized several times, but it didn't touch or interest me.

It sounded like it had nothing to do with me, rather than being too far away from my interests.

Or not.

I realized that I was living in a different world from other people.

It was not just a spatial difference.

I thought it was very different socially and emotionally.

So I asked.

“What do you want to do when you go outside? ”

Hojae wondered how he would look at others and their society.

I have a pile of things I want to do when I'm out there.

I want to see interesting books, movies, dramas, and even go to a theater or amusement park.

It would be fun and frustrating, but I still wanted to meet many people.

But what would Hojae think?

[Well.]

“Well, Lani. Is there anything you want to see? There's got to be a little hope. ”

[No, I don't.]

“You don't have any? ”

Hojae replied with a slightly shaky voice.

[Er, I don't really want to go to Earth to do anything.]
