00002 Zero Code, turning back 10 years of time. ————————————————– ———————-=

When I felt that the light that had been constantly hitting my eyelids was slowly fading away, I slowly opened my eyes that had been tightly closed. The lights that had filled the entire room were fading out little by little, leaving only a faint glow. I blinked once or twice and my blurry vision gradually came into focus. Eventually, when I recovered to the point where I could no longer judge things, I began to calmly look around.

‘different.’

I just closed my eyes for a moment, but a lot had changed. The sword he was holding in his right hand and the equipment he was wearing all disappeared. When I look down from my empty hands, I see a military uniform with a spotted pattern. And the moment I saw the buoy attached to my left chest, I stopped breathing for a moment. It was then.

“Code Name Zero. Complete. Confirm the triggering of the zero code. Normal operation has been confirmed. Congratulations to user Kim Soo-hyun.”

When I raised my head at the sound of a familiar voice, I saw Seraph still sitting on the altar looking at me. And at that moment, I frowned slightly. Her physical condition was so serious that it was obvious even at first glance that it was not normal.

“Why do you look at me like that?”

The beautifully fluttering white wings had faded to the point where they were invisible to the eye, and the entire body was translucent, showing the back without any filtering. Only Ye’s expressionless face remained the same as before.

As they remained silent, Seraph tilted her head and spoke.

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen your concerned eyes. But it’s okay. It is now Thursday, December 27, 2011, Earth time. At your request, Kim Soo-hyun of Earth has returned to the time when he first entered the summoning room. “I would like to reiterate, user Kim Soo-hyun’s request has been successfully processed and completed.”

“okay… . I see “So Seraph, are you coming back with me?”

As Seraph softly opened her mouth, she slowly shook her head left and right.

“I can’t tell you exactly, but for now, I will say no. User Kim Soo-hyun still had some explaining to do, so he asked Zero Code to provide deterrence for just a moment. Fortunately, Zero Code accepted my request, as if they considered my opinion valid.”

“Can you explain something?”

“yes. That’s right.”

When he asked back with his eyes still squinting, Seraph responded with a soft smile. It was the first angelic smile I had seen in the 10 years I had been working at Hall Plain. The sudden but refreshing feeling came upon me, and I unknowingly relaxed the frown around my eyes.

The awkward atmosphere settled down for a moment. However, it was not me who spoke first, but Seraph. She brushed her silver-white hair behind her ear, opened her mouth quietly with her eyes half closed.

“I remember the day when user Kim Soo-hyun was first summoned to the Hall Plain. “Do you remember the first thing you said when you saw me?”

“I don’t know.”

There’s no way you can remember that. I don’t know what kind of ghost he was talking about, but I decided to listen in silence for now. Seraph was someone who always gave appropriate advice, at least from a ‘helper’ perspective.

“W-Where am I? uh? Who are you! “I said.”

“Oh, I even stutter? “I remember everything.”

“Hehe. It’s not just this. Besides that… .”

Pajik!

At that moment, there was a sound of space being torn, and the whole body of Seraph, who was talking about trivial things, was greatly twisted. It looked similar to the noise signal phenomenon that occurs when you turn on a TV with a poor connection.

“Black!”

It twists, then returns to its original state. Seraph let out a moan of pain. As the phenomenon repeated, the translucent state became more and more severe. Her appearance like that seems so unfamiliar. If she closed and opened her eyes once, she would immediately return to her usual calm demeanor, but now the Seraph in front of her was showing a dangerous appearance, like a lantern in the wind.

Eventually, when the noise phenomenon subsided, Seraph, who had barely gathered himself, showed a bitter expression.

“I think it would be difficult to ask for recognition from Zero Code. Still, we were together for 10 years… . “It doesn’t even allow us time to say goodbye.”

‘Oh, I really can’t get used to it.’

In the past, rather than saying something like that, I would have gone straight to the point. As Seraph said, angels are a species that always acts rationally. After seeing the same attitude for 10 years, I couldn’t get used to the sudden change.

“okay… . “Then I need to explain it quickly and get it over with.”

In the end, I ended up shooting back bluntly. Seraph stared at me with sad-looking eyes, and then he continued speaking with a short sigh.

“User Kim Soo-hyun has barely consumed any GP since the middle of the game. I plan to spend some of the points I have earned so far to grant you some perks as you start over.”

“huh? “Perks?”

“Of course, I will leave the remaining GP as is.”

“It’s a privilege… . I don’t know what it is, but they still treat me as if I’ve reached the end. “I’m so grateful for this that I’m crying.”

The tone was full of sarcasm, but Seraph slightly shook her head as if it was not true.

“I would appreciate it if you thought of it as a favor rather than a treatment. “All the angels, including me, fully understand, empathize, and sympathize with your feelings.”

“Sympathy? ha ha ha… .”

“I apologize if the word ‘sympathy’ sounded offensive. It was not my intention to belittle you. However, at least within the Hole Plane, angels are in charge of helping users. Have I ever given user Kim Soo-hyun advice that could sound harmful? Think about it carefully. “I will leave it entirely up to user Kim Soo-hyun to decide whether to accept this favor or pass it on.”

Although he said he would leave it entirely up to me, Seraph didn’t give him any room to refute it, as if he was trying to get him to receive a ‘privilege’ somehow. Moreover, even if I tried to push it further, I couldn’t think of anything to say, so I just nodded, feeling helpless.

“It’s a great choice. I have no doubt that this choice will make it easier for user Kim Soo-hyun to achieve what he is trying to achieve.”

The moment he expressed his agreement, Seraph smiled slightly with a much relieved look in his eyes. And he flapped his now barely visible, faint wings once vigorously. Soon the distance between her and me shortened, and soon I felt a soft hand on her head. As she gently raised her eyes, Seraph continued her words in a relaxed voice.

“Even if you don’t want to, I hope you can hold on for a moment. There isn’t much time left. I’ll try to type and convey the content directly in my head.”

As soon as Seraph finished speaking, a flash of shock was felt on the top of her head where she was resting. It doesn’t hurt. Rather strangely, the information Seraph was trying to convey was clearly coming into my head. I closed my eyes and calmly savored the information she gave me.

1. We grant privileges related to the ability information that user Kim Soo-hyun originally had. First, you can ‘load’ the user information achieved in the first session. Second, out of the 6 basic ability information, 4 are randomly selected and their values ​​are increased. The level of increase is also randomly determined.

2. Grants class-related privileges. You can decide on your class in advance before entering Rite of Passage. You can select not only regular classes but also all classes that are wrapped in secrets, including rare and secret classes.

3. Grants perks related to special abilities and potential abilities. Users generally have 1 special ability slot and 4 potential ability slots, but we will open one additional potential ability slot to user Kim Soo-hyun. This also unlocks all special abilities and potential abilities, including hidden abilities, and you can choose what you want.

And in another way, you can open a slot called ‘unique ability’. Unique abilities are abilities that are higher than special abilities. If you give up your unique ability, you can choose one special ability and all five potential abilities as the abilities you want. (At this time, open slots are automatically included in the potential abilities.)

However, if you choose to have a unique ability, you can consume one potential ability and select half of the remaining 4 slots as the ability you want (the remaining 2 are determined randomly).

4. You can undergo body modification treatment only once.

5. User Kim Soo-hyun can select one type of equipment he wants, and there is no limitation on the type. However, EX grade equipment cannot be selected.

Information about special benefits fills my head without giving me time to rest. When I opened my eyes with mixed feelings, I could only see the vague remnants of Seraph. She still hasn’t removed her hand from the top of her head, but she no longer feels the same touch as before.

After barely finishing organizing the entered information, I let out a quiet exclamation.

“This… .”

To be honest, I was a little dumbfounded because I never dreamed that such a special privilege would be granted. If you could really start with these perks, it would be the same as using character editing before starting the game.

Seraph seemed to have read my expression and said with a slight smile.

“These perks were created with points earned by user Kim Soo-hyun. Of course, I won’t deny that there was some of my goodwill mixed in as well. However, since we have obtained the consent of all the angels, there is no problem at all.”

“I like it, but you’re going to disappear soon anyway. “Wouldn’t it be held back by balance issues?”

“It’s not like that. And I just noticed a bit of conceit in the way user Kim Soo-hyun spoke. I’ve told you this many times over the past 10 years. “You cannot let your guard down under any circumstances.”

“I’ll be careful. No, but balance is the issue. lets think. “What would a new user think if they started out with these perks?”

“You don’t have to worry, that part can be solved with Tanay. And the balance… . Of course, it’s true that I thought about balance… .”

Seraph paused for a moment and began to look at me. Then he spoke cautiously in a hesitant voice.

“Considering the potential that the original user Kim Soo-hyun had, it can be said that this side struck a balance.”

Seraph’s words contained many meanings, but I could understand what they meant right away. In fact, ‘potential’ is the most important key in determining ‘user information’.

I can understand Seraph’s intentions, but why do I still feel a bitter taste in my mouth?

No matter what anyone says, I am the only user who has reached the top of the hole plane. I have no intention of denying that it rose based on numerous miracles and coincidences. But isn’t there an old saying like that? It is not the strong who survive, but the strong who survive.

If I were to talk about general strength, I could confidently say I was strong. Of course, I know very well that I cannot call myself the best or the strongest. But no matter how… .

“… Huyu.”

“Conceit is prohibited. “Don’t let down your guard.”

In the end, I think this is what Seraph wanted to say. She felt embarrassed, as if I had sensed her conceit, as she said. I sighed briefly and nodded. Anyway, it wasn’t wrong. Although her pride was a little hurt, it immediately eased when she saw the Seraph whose shape had faded to the point where it was almost unrecognizable.

“now… . Really breaking up… . hour… .”

As Seraph said, it seems the end has really come. She was twisting around like a TV screen that was about to break down. Now it has not even been restored to its original state. I could only stare at it in vain.

“farewell… . you… . please… . I wanted to… . there is.”

I can no longer hear Seraph’s words. Her presence slowly disappears. Still, even though Seraph was desperate, she was talking to me enough to make me feel good.

“that… . really… .”

“Seraph. “I’m a little sorry it’s been like this until the end, but I can’t hear you very well.”

Still, Seraph seemed to be hearing what I was saying, and sadness appeared on Seraph’s face. But there is nothing I can do in this situation. It was something I had hoped for from the beginning, and it was also a situation I had brought upon myself. But she didn’t give up.

“wealth… . d… .”

Pot!

The noise seemed to get worse, and suddenly a white light flashed with a popping sound. Several brilliant beams of light appeared around the Seraph, and then disappeared in an instant. Now that she is truly at her end, she chews her lip once. Then, her eyes seemed to tighten, and her lips slowly parted.

“Please be happy… .”

Sarr… .

With those words, Seraph disappeared. No more noise occurs. But her last words, uttered with all her might, definitely reached my ears. I think he smiled broadly at me at the last moment, but I didn’t have time to look at it closely because I was so focused on what I was saying.

For a moment, I stared at the spot where Seraph was.
