Shincon’s One Coin Clear
Chapter 47

Episode 47. Bounty (1)

The sun invited the Messiah into the room.

only one Messiah.

The rest of the users felt sorry for this, but Taeyang was adamant.

Because I was thinking of rejecting it in the first place.

Upon hearing the sun’s will, the Messiah twisted her lips crookedly.

“I don’t know why you hate moving with us.”

“what?”

“You are a user. In this world, if users don’t trust users, who can they trust?”

“well. I heard that there are as many cases of NPCs betraying users as there are cases where users stab users in the back of the head.”

In fact, there were a lot of them.

Some users who took some bad manners as a concept gained popularity by playing malicious betrayals.

Messiah objected.

“That was when things weren’t like this. If you kill someone in the game right now, it’s literally murder. you know?”

-… … that’s right. If you do that, it’s a murder that’s relayed in front of tens of thousands of people.

The sun frowned.

“Let’s put that aside. How many achievements did you collect on your way up to the twelfth floor?”

“Why?”

“Don’t talk. I wouldn’t have played with the broadcast turned on anyway. I got 84 of them.”

“84? wow!”

Messiah opened her eyes wide in admiration.

“I have 55.”

-oh. I took care of it a lot more economically than I thought.

A pace that would break KK’s record by reaching the 15th floor.

It was a better result than Hyun-hye had expected.

“okay. you’ll just have to write What about the rest of the guys who came up with you?”

“… … maybe 30? There are some that don’t work, and there are those that have close to 40.”

The sun shook its head.

There were many reasons why I didn’t want to go out with the Messiah.

And this difference in achievements was also one of the reasons.

“You know, I’ve already built up a ton of specs. If you play based on that, you can get more achievements. If I move in line with you… … .”

“Isn’t the level right to move together?”

I know.

The sun shrugged.

Messiah looked at Ran and asked.

“How many are there?”

“me?”

Ran’s face became bewildered at the sudden mention.

“What is it, of course, you have to tell me.”

“No, I don’t have to say anything. Regardless of the number of achievements, you and I are in sync.”

In fact, players were reluctant to reveal the number of their achievements.

It was only natural that the ability was quantified and revealed.

Rather, revealing it casually like the sun and Messiah was an abnormal behavior in the eyes of common NPC players.

Ran crossed his arms and glared at Messiah.

“I hate to be precise, but if I have to tell you one thing, I have more than you.”

“You mean roughly the same?”

Ran didn’t answer.

It was a silence of agreement.

In fact, it was more accumulated than Messiah, but the difference was not that big.

At the hostile atmosphere between the two, Messiah smiled and mate! and clapped.

“Then do this.”

The sun crossed its arms.

“say it.”

“Why don’t you take me with you instead of the rest of the users?”

“what?”

“You also take Ran, saying that it is useful. Wouldn’t I be useful too?”

unexpected answer.

the sun asked

“… … Can you just decide like that without asking people’s opinions?”

“Will they like it too? Wouldn’t it be better to wait while drinking coffee in a warm shelter than risking your life to climb?”

“under.”

The sun let out a laugh.

Judging by the fact that he was talking like that, it seemed that after confirming that Taeyang had stopped broadcasting, Messiah had also stopped broadcasting.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said that I would throw it away so casually.

“You’re going to break the team you’ve been up with and join me?”

Messiah this friend.

A lot of talk is superficial

A warmer shelter than risking your life to climb? what?

Those people made it to the twelfth floor?

It’s not even a funny story.

If it were people like that in the first place, there was no way they would have come up here.

3rd floor 6th floor 9th floor. There were three shelters, but these are the people who gave up all the opportunities and went up to the 12th floor.

-Even if it wasn’t so, the Messiah would be the leader.

Messiah frowned.

“Hey buddy. Let’s look at the situation nationally.”

“Nationality?”

“The treatment of those guys is not important! The important thing for us is to clear the game and save the humans trapped in the game! Am I wrong?”

yes wrong

The sun countered.

“More important than that is trust. You just want to break the trust with your teammates and hold hands with me.”

“That sounds very right.”

Ran nodded.

the sun spoke

“What should I believe in and go up with you? If you face a situation where you can leave me and climb up, you will definitely do so. no? I’ll say it again Talking about a national view.”

“… … There seems to be some misunderstanding. The fact that I will leave my teammates behind and go with you is a decision I can make because this is a resting place.”

“It is easy to say.”

The sun crossed its arms and shook its head.

I had no intention of going together from the beginning, but after talking, the conclusion became more certain.

“it’s okay. I’m sure. I’m not going to go with you.”

“hey!”

“hey? Hey Messiah. If you want your will to be respected, shouldn’t you be able to respect the will of others as well?”

The Messiah glared at the sun.

Of course, the sun didn’t even dream.

“Ask again later.”

“Can I answer in advance?”

Quaang.

Messiah nervously left the room.

The colleagues waiting outside clung to Messiah.

“Leader?”

“What are they saying over there? Are you moving together from the next stage?”

“I heard there are over 70 achievements? It must be almost a named NPC-level force!”

Messiah shook her head at the expectant eyes of the users.

“The other side doesn’t seem to want to move with us at all.”

“That… … .”

“Then are you going to continue as this member?”

Messiah clenched his fists.

“No, I can’t just walk away.”

“yes?”

“It seems that he has no experience of matching up with that friend user.”

Messiah laughed.

“Let me show you. Synergy that ‘users’ can create.”

***

After the Messiah goes out.

Hyunhye carefully opened her mouth.

-Do I really need to do this?

“what?”

– Messiah. It doesn’t sound like a good intention, but it’s true that it’s a reliable force. A deep understanding of the game.

“… … Have you suddenly changed your mind? Do you think it would be better if we went together?”

– To be honest, uh. I think this will help.

Messiah is a user.

Hyeon-hye thought he would be helpful to Tae-yang for this one reason alone.

It seemed that the fact that Taeyang was not the only person who had fallen into Dantalian’s world could provide great psychological comfort.

Of course, the biggest reason was that Messiah was actually a competent player.

However, the sun shook its head resolutely.

“no.”

-why?

“That guy… … . Because I’m broadcasting.”

broadcast.

The decisive reason for not telling the Messiah.

The sun’s eyes sank low.

It’s something that should never happen.

if.

If the.

What if a user interferes with climbing the Labyrinth of the Sun?

What if it interferes with replaceing Byeollim?

It’s quite possible.

Intimidation stage clearing conditions of other NPCs, etc.

Because the number of cases is large enough.

And if faced with such a situation, Taeyang was even thinking about ‘turning off the broadcast’ and solving the problem.

Some might call it inhumane.

It is true that there are things that cannot be forgiven.

However, to Taeyang, Byullim’s life had greater value than the lives of others.

In other words, the last bastion.

In order to leave this bulwark as a bulwark, he had to get away from the Messiah.

“Whew.”

Taeyang sighed, his heart heavy, and Ran raised his eyebrows as if wondering what he was thinking about.

Taeyang was capable of pretending, and there were many players who wanted to take advantage of that ability.

And Taeyang had never been troubled by such players.

“Isn’t it fine if I follow you and kill you? Just like you did before.”

The sun scratched the back of his head.

“Because it’s not that simple.”

user.

It was clear that things would go badly if the killing scene was aired.

In the worst case, there was a possibility that the connection would be cut off in the name of preventing Taeyang’s murderous act.

The intervention of public power was a number of cases that Taeyang or Hyeonhye could not control, and Taeyang had to take this into consideration.

As Taeyang stumbled on his words, Ran asked again.

“Is there a reason you can’t kill those guys?”

“Yeah, I can’t kill you with my own hands.”

“Then I will kill you. Then no problem.”

“No, even that… … .”

It’s not murder, but even aiding and abetting the murder of a teacher is a serious enough crime in reality.

The sun sighed again.

– Mmm. I can’t think of any other way.

“Let’s just wait. If they leave first, they go a long way later.”

“Do what you do. why… … .”

“Let’s go and rest. Let’s take this opportunity to relieve fatigue. You haven’t been resting for a while.”

-okay. You definitely need some time to rest.

Ran pursed his lips at the awkward response that was not like Taeyang.

***

Murphy’s Law.

This is a law advocated by Edward Murphy, a former US Air Force captain.

Here’s a quick summary of Murphy’s Law:

‘Anything that can go wrong will eventually go wrong.’

The Messiah’s work was like that too.

-It’s ugly.

-Really. I just have to go on my way, but I’m waiting until the end.

-Even if it was me. It’s a free bus, so why not ride it?

– Can’t we just kill this?

-That’s murder.

-It is not clear why death in the game leads to death in real life. Intuitively, it’s murder. Anyway, it can’t be scientifically proven, so you won’t be punished?

– But if you kill him openly, you’re a psychopath.

-That’s it again.

3 days like that.

The sun sighed.

“I can’t.”

All the fatigue was relieved, and now I started to feel the passing time was a waste.

“store?”

“I have to go.”

Even at this moment, Byullim was stuck in the game.

-But it’s a crew with an average of 33 achievements on the 12th floor, isn’t it useful?

-Isn’t it a waste?

-As long as the stage doesn’t change, you can do bullying with numbers.

-But the gap with Yoon Taeyang is too wide.

-But doesn’t the play of sweeping achievements become a bit ambiguous if you put them in groups like this?

-ㅇㅇ I can do it if I drive it, but then the rest of the players are too small.

As Taeyang and Ran headed for the door leading to the next stage, the waiting players rushed in.

Seeing the users flocking like dogs, Ran muttered in a small voice.

“These aren’t some beggars.”

The Messiah smiled and hit the sun.

“Go with me.”

“I am not responsible for you. make sure If you go to the stage, I won’t help you and I won’t help you.”

“I’m a bit embarrassed to say that. Of course, we don’t really need any help either.”

puck.

The sun snorted.

There was no significant change in the expressions of other users, as if they had heard enough about this.

“let’s go.”

cooong.

The sun entered through the door.

Ran followed and the Messiah’s party followed.

Some of the NPC players who had been observing them in the shelter for some reason followed them.

He seemed to think that there was a corner where he could get something to eat.

cooong.

As soon as the door closed, the space changed.

“Here?”

“Oh.”

The first thing that came into my eyes was the buildings standing up to pierce the sky.

And a sharp, sharp skyline.

-oh.

-what. Earth background?

-Modern background ㅅㅅㅅㅅㅅ.

[‘Paka Foot Jelly’ sponsored 10,000 won!]

[Correct. Avoid the oracle.]

-Are you talking about the stage?

-yep.

-Does it seem right?

[‘Bana’ sponsored 10,000 won!]

[No, this is a bounty stage. I even broadcasted with the moon and me.]

Hyun-hye smiled while looking at the sponsorship window.

– I remember.

Bana was a Dantalian figure and a fellow streamer of Hyeon-hye.

Hyeon-hye once broke the collection stage with him.

On the other hand, Taeyang awkwardly scratched his head.

“prize? I don’t remember very well. what was it?”

Before answering, a system window popped up.

[5-1 Bounty: Hunt the criminals.0/20000000]

At the same time, a huge iron barrel was struck between the players.

Aaaaaang!
