289. Justitia (1)
Before creating a game account, Seongjin first recommended checking the ‘Full Dive Machine’ that Dexter will use.
He assured me that there wouldn’t be any problems, but isn’t this something that has been sitting around in workshops for years without being used?
Precious ho… No, it would be difficult if there was a problem with Dexter, the informant.
[Look at this. What did I say? It works fine.]
Dexter, who had tested everything in the large capsule, including the life support system and emergency escape sequence, spoke confidently.
But isn’t he talking to Seongjin not with his usual voice, but with complete resignation?
[hmm? Resignation?]
[Oh, are you surprised? That’s because I’m not a dragon like you, nor a Delcrossian like you. Normally, there is no way to send thoughts as easily as you guys do.]
Chi profit.
The capsule’s lid opened, revealing the dwarf engineer’s face, which was much brighter than before.
[But this is the capsule used for the homunculus engine transplant work. It can be said to be a product that properly integrates Ionic over-technology! Thanks to this, everyone, even developers on Earth who don’t know Ionian, could participate in the virtual conference room through these capsules.]
[Right.]
Seongjin nodded.
Just because you’re a Delcross person doesn’t mean you’ll be fooled, but there’s no need to correct that misconception.
In any case, it was a truly fortunate story that Dexter was able to use his thoughts.
Even if you can communicate roughly with one guest ID user through the in-game translation function, it will easily become a sack of barley for other people who have not received translation services.
Especially in urgent situations such as when going through a dungeon, Seongjin no longer has to worry about having to translate for other silent villains one by one.
[Of course, since we are delivering our thoughts directly, the problem is that important technical documents are not translated… ok?]
Only then did Dexter feel puzzled and tilted his head.
[Wait, but you. Didn’t you just read the Impulse Soft site with me? How on earth… … .]
[Oh, it’s no big deal. Don’t worry about such trivial things before the greater good.]
[what? no… … .]
Then the two sat in front of the laptop and created an account.
The process was simpler than I thought.
After creating an ID via email and entering iris information, a Pangea Chronicle login window appears with a colorful graphic logo.
“Hmm, is there a discount on your first purchase?”
Dexter paid for the flat-rate ticket on the spot and even purchased several cash gift certificates. Compared to his initial unwillingness, his attitude was quite serious.
“Do you also buy cash in advance?”
“of course. “This is the basics for adults who have a lot of money and don’t have time.”
“oh.”
The stock price of our household appliances is gradually rising.
“Are you rich?”
“Well, what did you say earlier? I’m an excellent engineer with a high salary. Plus the property gifted to me by my mother… … .”
Dexter, who had been answering cheerfully, suddenly looked back at Seongjin in surprise.
“But why are you asking that?”
“Ah, no, just.”
Seongjin smiled happily.
Okay, buddy. Let’s enjoy the fun Pangea Chronicle life together.
“… … .”
“Hey, don’t cheat. So, relax your expression!”
Next was the selection of perks according to occupation.
“You can change your job before changing jobs, but if you decide in advance, you will receive customized benefits.”
“okay? Then decide it here.”
“good. I, too, was once obsessed with console games. “I’ll show off my skills in the Dark Spirit Nodeath Run!”
Unlike the first time, Dexter, who was highly motivated, relaxed his hands and vigorously moved the mouse to the warrior occupation group.
chin.
But there was someone who blocked his hand –
“Wizard.”
Dexter looked up with round eyes at Seongjin, who had suddenly interfered.
“what? But I’m more familiar with the warrior profession… … .”
“Wizard.”
Resolute and without the slightest will to compromise.
In the end, Dexter threw his goggles and got angry.
“Oh, it’s appropriate to meddle! Are you saying it’s just a game to cool off? Then at least some job freedom… … !”
“Wizard.”
“… … .”
“Wizard.”
When Seongjin smiled at him, Dexter, who was looking white for some reason, kept his mouth shut and quietly chose the wizard perk.
From then on, it was all smooth sailing.
All you had to do was designate the starting point near the silent villain’s rendezvous point, create a character, and dive.
However, they encountered unexpected difficulties in creating the character.
Looking at the avatar that scanned himself through the capsule, Dexter was conflicted with a gloomy face for a long time.
“Is there a need to show people with genetic diseases even in games? Even if I don’t really care, it’s still a fact that it’s uncomfortable to be seen by others.”
“Then you can just make a tall avatar, right? “It’s a virtual body, so what’s the problem?”
Then Dexter glared at Seongjin as if he was pitiful.
“You ignorant Delcross! The effects of full dives on the human brain are still not fully understood. “If you continue to feel uncomfortable with your body movements, you may eventually experience some side effects on your actual body and the nervous system that controls it!”
“hmm. “I once became a small goat, but it wasn’t a problem.”

Seongjin scratched his cheek and suddenly realized.
Haven’t you been in the body of young Mores, and recently experienced a drastic change in your soul to match him?
‘Is it the same as the soul being influenced by the body? Even though it is an avatar, it is actually a new body in the normal world, so it will have a big impact on the soul in some way, right?’
Anyway, one thing was certain.
Dexter is not very happy about his genetic disease, but more than that, he values the genius brain he inherited from his mother.
To the extent that even the slightest possibility of side effects can never be tolerated.
“But you can’t turn him into a child at this age. There is no such thing as a short race like dwarves… … .”
Seongjin quietly crossed his arms while looking at Dexter, who was struggling.
hmm.
An avatar that is short but not young and does not look out of place in the eyes of others.
Seongjin smiled in remorse at a thought that suddenly occurred to him.
“Hey, Dexter.”
“huh?”
“Do you know what skin is? “I know of a really cute skin with little avatars.”
“… … ?”
* * *
That’s how Dexter became a little mole and appeared in front of everyone.
The mole waved his hand awkwardly, fiddling with the cute goggles on his head.
[Well, nice to meet you all, friends. My name is Dexter.]
The silent villains opened their mouths in astonishment at his shy first greeting.
Among them, Owen was the first to come to his senses, jumping up and shouting as if he was going to jump out of his seat.
[Thoughts? What on earth? No matter how you look at it, it seems like an ordinary user?]
Only then did the other guys come to their senses and add their words one by one.
[Owen, as you said, there is a normal ID floating above his head. I’m pretty sure it’s not a guest ID user. But how can you talk to us with your thoughts?]
[Very surprising! My intestines just came out!]
This time it was Seongjin’s turn to be surprised.
Wow, group. Calm down.
If “viscera came out” isn’t an idiom, it’s a bit scary. How did you get your body back?
And all the silent villains looked at the small goat, the culprit of this situation, hoping for an explanation.
Hmm.
Seongjin cleared his throat for a moment and opened his mouth.
[Nothing to be surprised. Strictly speaking, the reason why guest ID users can communicate with each other in silence is because of the Oracle terminals they each have, right?]
[That’s right.]
[So it is possible. As far as I know, this guy is the most outstanding engineer alive and the highest authority on ‘Oracle Terminals.’ Additionally, this friend also has an imperfect terminal like me.]
Then the mole looked at Seongjin with a somewhat moved expression.
[Group. I had an explanation.]
[I understand, Seongjin Lee. But even so, ordinary users are people who cannot be easily verified.]
Even after hearing Seongjin’s explanation, the silent villains could not readily welcome general users. It was thanks to the painful experiences I had had so far.
Even if you somehow joined a regular party, you had no choice but to pass up rare items because you couldn’t use high-end facilities.
The moment they claimed ownership, all party members turned and attacked them.
He was even reported as a nuclear user, chased by guards, and couldn’t even set foot near the green zone for a while.
[Everyone is right. What’s so bad about regular users that they want to join us? There is no need to bring in that friend and create internal disharmony. This is not good for both sides.]
[okay. I understand that you guys are suspicious of him.]
Seongjin nodded at Owen’s stiff response.
[But you can verify me. If you can’t trust regular users, can’t you at least trust me, the person chosen by the terminal?]
And after a brief pause, Seongjin pointed out his petal-shaped hoof, still very persuasive.
[I think something like yesterday should never happen again. You are already my precious friend… I mean, we became friends. So I can no longer leave you in that danger.]
[Lee Seong-jin… … .]
[I know Dexter’s abilities well, and I know what a good friend he is. We asked him for help for everyone’s safety, and it was clear Dexter’s good will that he responded. So, I hope you don’t ignore that small act of goodwill.]
Then all the silent villains looked at Seongjin with touched faces.
[Hmm.]
[Lee Seong-jin’s statement also makes sense. We shouldn’t deny the possibility of someone approaching us with good intentions from the beginning. If he gives up just because he has failed repeatedly, he will never succeed again.]
[Lee Seong-jin, scary but kind! So what he likes is good!]
Then the mole, who had been listening quietly until then, looked back at Seongjin in confusion.
[But who is Lee Seong-jin that those friends were talking about earlier? When your father called before, he definitely called you the day after tomorrow… Ouch!]
While the mole jumped after being stepped on hard, Seongjin smiled brightly as he took a seat in the middle of the table.
[Okay then. I guess everyone did their homework properly, right? Shall we take time to talk slowly about each person’s goals and what we need to do in the future?]
[This is Owen Lockwood. The reason I keep logging in here is probably to meet Goddess Justitia and get the things I need.]
To the red fox’s words, the other silent villains reacted very fussily.
[Oh, indeed! That’s why, Owen, you haven’t been able to leave Pangea Chronicle for this long!]
[Have an explanation! It seems like an almost impossible goal!]
Even though we hung out together all the time, we never really talked about personal things with each other.
[But a goddess is a goddess, so what is Amado?]
[Well, my Mr. Sang Tae-chang’s quest only says to ‘obtain a specific item.’ There are no detailed instructions.]
Anyway, seeing as Sang Chang-chang kept linking me to the Pangea Chronicle, Owen added that it was probably an item that could only be obtained here.
However, no matter how much I go through the advanced dungeons, the items do not run out, and I cannot get anywhere near the auction house.
So, he was trying to meet a goddess who would give him the highest level of compensation.
[There is only one way for Guest ID users who cannot use the temple to meet the goddess. This means completing the 3rd job change quest. At that time, I heard that the goddess was supposed to appear to give compensation.]
[hmm.]
[To do that, you have to somehow obtain the transfer items.]
Former item. Is this what everyone is screaming out loud?
Seongjin furrowed his eyebrows and thought. It occurred to me that getting Owen out of here might not be that simple.
[Nice to meet you, regular user Dexter. My name is Hatasu Titi. This is a pure-blooded Mashu tree from the Granbloom clan.]
At the introduction of the excessively elongated deer, Seongjin and Dexter made eye contact at the same time.
[…] … ?]
I don’t know what a Mashu tree is.
It may be a proper noun or a translation issue.
Anyway, Titi continued the story.
[The reason I keep coming here is to win the political war with the Barum Trees and eventually bring the Granbloom clan to the top position. To do that, you must first fertilize the clan’s land to increase its potential.]
It is said that a rare potion obtained from the Pangea Chronicle will make their land fertile.
Of course, there were still questions about what effect increasing the potential of the land would have on political strife.
‘By the way, despite your ascetic attitude, you have a very worldly purpose, Hatasu Titi.’
It seems that Sang Chang-chang does not specifically select guest ID users for the greater good.
[I’m a gulp-keul-lab gur-leup. I have a purpose: to save my hometown. Currently, my star is suffering from the devil!]
Finally, the five-legged octopus opened its mouth solemnly.
[Work hard to build strength. Do your best to collect weapons. And I will raise my companions and eventually defeat the Demon King!]
Then everyone looked at the group with puzzled faces.
The bewildered group twitched its puffy snout.
[Group? Why is everyone reacting like that?]
No, what should I say?
I thought you were a mushy mollusk, but you seem to be working for a greater cause than you seem.
That’s a typical hero from games, right? Group.
