This Is Not a Game

I don’t know

[Community-You have unacknowledged messages(325)]

Community, one of the features activated after clearing the first quest.

I didn’t even know what kind of people were gathering there, what they were talking about, and whether going inside would be beneficial or harmful. There was only

[Only ‘users’ can enter the community]

[Please set a nickname. If there is no separate adjustment, it will be fixed as ‘Han Yuseong’]

“Limited to the corner of the room.”

[Welcome to the community by Room Corner Hanryang!]

– Grand Mage: Hey, you bastards. Send me some magic stones! The gate doesn’t have to be closed!

-Blue Blood: There’s no way a person the size of an archmage would need a mana stone to close the gate, right? Just be honest and say that you covet the magic stone.

-Carlos: Can I help you?

-made in usa: Uncle, take control of the place you are entrusted with. This is the start. Not all damage can be prevented. Move only as planned. Now, the first step is to establish a new system.

-Super Ant: I’m sorry, but can you send me some support?

-made in usa: Didn’t you hear what I just said?

-Super ant: No, I don’t want to do this for a while, but an incident broke out near the Ilseong research complex. You said you could never lose here? There is no ‘life is one shot’, so it’s hard to survive here with only the power.

-made in usa : ··· Apply immediately. Hold on for 30 minutes.

…

In a surprisingly light atmosphere, Yooseong relaxed and checked the conversation details step by step.

There were 9 nicknames, but I don’t know if he was busy fighting monsters or taking a break, but there were only 3 nicknames that he was still chatting with.

“how will we do it.”

I was able to clear some of my doubts just by checking the conversation history.

It didn’t matter if he went out like this, but he decided to make his presence known as soon as he came in, and wrote.

-Room corner Hanryang: Nice to meet you.

momentary silence.

And a message filled with bewilderment that could be felt through text came up.

-Balance: Who is it?

-Weapon Master: It’s a nickname I’ve never seen before? Are you a new user?

-Super Ant: Could it be? What a new user! Just looking at it, that bastard used a nickname change ticket! Where have you been and what have you been doing?

Yoosung didn’t hesitate to get straight to the main topic as the messages piled up like crazy.

– Room limit: I am a new user.

-Super ant: A lie where not even a seed will be eaten…

-Room corner: The previous owner sold me the goggles and disappeared.

-Super Ant: What?

As if it was an unimaginable answer, on behalf of the super ant who had fallen into silence, Balanced Joe continued to ask a question.

-Balance: Goggles? Are you talking about Deus Ex Machina? What do you mean you sold it?

-Limited amount of room: This is a literal meaning. I bought goggles after looking for used VR devices on the Internet to play games, and I became a user by using them without any doubt.

-Balanced Joa: ···Where did the previous owner go?

-Room corner Hanryang: That’s it, I don’t know. Rather, I want to ask. It looks like an acquaintance, but don’t you know where this bastard went? There is something I want to share seriously about the product.

-Balanced Joa: No, what kind of dog eating grass is this?!

“It looks like they got it right too.”

A nickname that came up from time to time during the conversation, ‘Life is a medicine’.

It doesn’t match any of the 9 nicknames that exist in the community, and while watching conversations with the gist of ‘where is your life and what are you doing’ and ‘are you going on a difficult quest’, Yooseong intuitively knows what’s going on. I was able to realize

‘Life is one shot, you bastard. It splashed.’

The people in this community, the users, knew in advance about the appearance of monsters and various abnormal phenomena, and were preparing for it.

For example, the person with the nickname ‘made in usa’ was in charge of supporting various high-tech weapons to various countries, and in the case of ‘super ant’, I don’t know how to do it in detail, but it seemed to be in charge of mass-producing talented people.

However, in ‘Life is Herbal Medicine’, for whatever reason, he gave up his role and ran away in a situation where a disaster was right in front of him.

And the unlucky person who suddenly took over the role he gave up…

-Room limit: ···That’s me.

-Super Ant: Does that make sense? ah! I get it. Are you kidding us because you’re late and you’re afraid we’ll get mad at you? I won’t get angry, so tell me the truth. You’re ‘life is one shot’, right? right? Have you ever played a joke?

-Room corner Hanryang: I’m sorry, but it’s all real.

-Super Ant: No, this! what! Chew!

Instead of ‘Super Ant’ doing the papering, ‘Weapon Master’ asked more constructive questions.

-Weapon Master: So when did you buy those goggles?

– Room limit: March 7th. It’s 4 days ago.

– Weapon Master: I can’t believe it anymore. The community function opens from the novice solver level, but you have to clear more than 10 quests to go from beginner to novice solver. Even if that person is really an ordinary person who has nothing to do with it and became a user by chance, it is impossible to become a rookie solver in 4 days.

-Limited number of corners: 10? Even if you clear only one, the rank goes up?

-Weapon Master: What was the quest grade?

-Range Hanryang: The grade went up after clearing the E grade quest with SSS rank.

Recalling the 999 deaths he had forgotten, Yooseong smiled bitterly and touched the crown of his head, which had been split countless times.

-Weapon Master: SSS? Could that be possible…

-Super Ant: There is a perk that does not deduct the number of re-challenges when you are in the beginner level. I must have cleared it perfectly by re-challenging endlessly.

– Weapon Master: There is no way you can clear a high rank simply by challenging yourself a lot. Besides, with SSS ranks, you can solve only with given abilities without using skills or items. Do you think such a thing is possible even for E-rank quests?

-Super ant: If you want to lie, you must have told a more plausible lie. It’s so blatant that I rather trust it.

‘It’s impossible to clear a high rank?’

It was such a reaction with just one, but it didn’t seem necessary to make a scratch by announcing the fact that I had cleared the quest twice with a high rank.

While the two were fighting in the middle of the fight, the one who remained silent after the first message threw a question.

-Balanced: How are you so calm?

-Room corner: What are you talking about?

-Balanced Joa: If everything you said is true, you are asking how you can be so calm. You became a user only for 4 days. Knowing that you can become a being in another world in just 4 days, overcome a hopeless situation, and bring the powers and items of that world to Earth, how can you calmly talk like this in an unreal situation invaded by another world? can you share? It seems like a normal person’s reaction to ask how this happened?

-Room corner Hanryang: Yeah, you’re Korean, right?

-Balanced: What?

It seemed that Joajo-ah did not understand, but the other two realized the meaning of that one word and accepted the situation so easily that their fight so far was futile.

-Super Ant: Ah, then there is no choice.

-Weapon Master: As expected, the people of the game…

-Balanced: Wait a minute. Why are you convinced? What do you understand when you say you are Korean? I know that Koreans are good at games, but isn’t that calmness strange?

-Super Ant: Uh, aren’t web novels popular there?

-Weapon Master: East Asia. In particular, Korea and Japan are very knowledgeable about this situation, or should I say that they have indirect experiences or an environment to get used to. There is such a thing. Even looking around the Internet, other countries are still confused, but in Korea and Japan, the drip saying that talented people gather together to form a guild, and shout out the status window first…

– Room limit: You can think of it as a general special.

-Balance: I can’t understand it.

-Super Ant: So, if you are Korean, where are you now?

Yuseong, who was trying to send a message inadvertently, stopped moving for a moment at the sudden question.

‘Do I really need to cooperate with users?’

If you cooperate with users, you will definitely get a lot out of it.

From the perspective of a pioneer, you can support various quests and tons of information about another world, as well as surplus skills and items, and you can feel a sense of belonging as there are only 10 users in the world, provide various conveniences, and guarantee safety until you grow up. have.

Whatever it is, it is like a light rain from the dry sky to the world in chaos and to myself now, where everything is in chaos.

However, instead of answering hastily, Yoosung quietly changed his words.

-Room Corner: Can I ask you a few questions?

-Super Ant: Suddenly a question? What?

-Room corner Hanryang: Do you know the exact cause of the monster invasion and various disasters that are happening right now?

-Super Ant: It would take half a day to explain in detail.

-Limited room: Please explain in three lines.

-Super Ant: I’m not good at that.

– Weapon Master: A war broke out between the dimensions. In the process, fragments or losers from shattered dimensions set sail in space to find a new haven. Then, the place to reach is the earth. End of description below.

-Super Ant: Oh, are you doing something?

-Balance Joa: Do you understand that?

-Room limit: Enough and more than enough.

Rather, it was a bit overkill.

Anyone who has read web novels will be able to understand the whole situation with just one line of explanation, ‘A war has broken out between dimensions’, without having to go to three lines.

– Room corner Hanryang: Let me ask you one more question. Are there any side effects from using goggles?

-Super Ant: None.

-Room limit: Are you sure you don’t have one? In fact, this machine was created by the devil, so the more you use it, the more your soul is stolen, or if you fail while traveling to and from another world, you will be forever trapped between dimensions, or whenever you use goggles, a strange signal will be emitted, and the beings of another world will invade. Can you say with certainty that there is no such side effect as accelerated?

-Super Ant: I can say it. Deus Ex Machina is a machine that changes destructive fate and brings power and goods from another world in exchange for karma generated in the process. If I had to call it a side effect, it would be the confusion caused by bringing things from another world.

-Room limit: That’s right.

-Super Ant: By the way, where are you now?

To the super ant’s question, Yoosung gave the answer right away without hesitation.

-Limited in the corner of the room: I don’t know.

-Super Ant: ···What?

-Room limit: Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t write it myself, but there was a typo. It’s not ‘Anyalyazum’, it’s ‘I don’t want to tell you’.
