Silence fell in the living room.
Seo Kang-rim also couldn’t say anything and just looked at them.
‘What did I just hear?’
It was clearly a novel, but it mentioned himself and Shin Soo-ah.
Moreover, it is a situation that cannot occur in reality.
Seo Kang-rim got up from his seat and approached Yu Ha-rang.
“Uh, Uh. Master! That’s… …!”
Seo Kang-rim quickly scanned the screen, trying to stop Yoon Gyul-woo from trying to snatch the phone away in a panic.
Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah’s names were really written there.
For some unknown reason, it seemed like Shin Soo-ah was cornering Seo Kang-rim.
In the meantime, Yun Gyul-woo was sweating profusely.
“Yoon Gyeo-wool, what is this?”
“That’s… a web novel?”
“This is a novel?”
It was the most absurd content among the novels Seo Kang-rim had ever read.
Is this what you stayed up all night to watch?
He looked at Yun Gyeo-wool in disbelief and asked,
“Did you write it?”
“Oh, no! That can’t be. It’s Dokgo Jun’s new work!”
It was something Dokgo Jun would do.
Yun Gyul-wool spoke at length as if making an excuse.
“I, I didn’t mean to look at it on purpose. I heard there was a novel with Master as the main character… … I was just doing some research… … .”
“Did anyone else see this?”
“Yeah. Because Dokgo Jun is famous. It hasn’t been that long since the series started, but quite a lot of people are watching it.”
Are other people reading this too?
Yoon Gyul-woo said as if making an excuse.
“No, but it’s really fun! Master, no, Seo Kang-rim is also cool. It’s about Seo Kang-rim being possessed by a book and becoming stronger… …!”
Ice cream?
Seo Kang-rim quickly skimmed through the novel from the first episode.
The title of the novel is ‘When the Destruction-level Sajoo Possesses You’.
The main character’s name was ‘Seo Kang-rim’.
The personality, speech, and appearance were almost identical to the real Seo Kang-rim.
The things he had been through so far were also depicted quite similarly.
One day, the protagonist wakes up after being hit by a truck and is possessed by an extra in the novel, Seo Kang-rim.
The introduction is when the day of awakening begins.
A large sleeper suddenly appears, but ‘Seo Kang-rim’ defeats it using information he had in advance.
The way he entered the educational facility and performed his activities also seemed to be a direct copy of his actual experiences.
‘Since you were Dokgo Jun who worked with me, you must know what happened to me.’
From the day of awakening until entering the educational facility, the story unfolded almost identically to reality.
Of course, it was different from reality, but it was a difference that could be known because it was Seo Kang-rim.
If someone else were to read it, the content of the novel would be so densely written that it would feel like Seo Kang-rim’s life.
The ripples left there proved that fact.
-Huh? Is this Seo Kang-rim really the hunter Seo Kang-rim?
-Isn’t the content of the novel and Seo Kang-rim really similar?
-Isn’t this the true story of Seo Kang-rim?
Many people doubted whether this novel was based on a true story.
That would be the case, as the people, places, and events in the novel are all real.
No one believed that he was possessed, but there were quite a few who believed that what could possibly happen was real.
Yun Gyul-woo glanced at me and asked.
“Master, did you really kiss Su-ah and Geo-hae in their room?”
“I didn’t do it.”
Even Yun Gyul-woo was like this, so I had no idea how it was for other people.
In the meantime, a notification window popped up again.
[The name of the Hunter ‘Seogangrim’ spreads far and wide! Humans begin to take notice of you.]
‘Was it because of Dokgo Jun that this notification window has been popping up so often lately?’
Only then did Seo Kang-rim realize the cause of this situation.
Even in my previous life, movies starring hunters or gods were popular.
There were also instances where the parties involved became famous because of it.
“Seo Kang-rim, what are you going to do with Dokgo Jun?”
Yuharang asked like that.
Normally, it would have been a situation where he would have been angry, but Seo Kang-rim’s expression was calm.
He thought about something for a moment and then took out his cell phone.
* * *
Seo Kang-rim was sitting on the sofa in the living room.
There was only silence in the reception room.
While he was silently reading the novel that Dokgo Jun had uploaded, he heard the door suddenly open.
“Ah, Seo Kang-rim! It’s been a while.”

The person who came inside was Dokgo Jun.
He seemed very excited to be invited to the Bihomun sect building for the first time.
Dokgo Jun sat across from me, smiling brightly.
“Wow, Seo Kang-rim invited me like this. I really live long enough to see this!”
Dokgo Jun was very excited, but Seo Kang Rim just had a blank expression.
He put down the novel he was reading and stared at Dokgo Jun.
“I read your novel.”
“Really? I’m glad you read it to me.”
“Meanwhile, in the novel, you appear as my colleague.”
As Seo Kang-rim said, in the novel, Seo Kang-rim and Dokgo Jun were inseparable colleagues.
It was quite far from reality, but people seemed to believe it.
-Wow I cried in this episode.
-How can they be like that… … Are they really that close?
-You said you graduated from the same educational institution?
-You guys were in perfect sync during the 12 Zodiac Race!
Before we knew it, people who confused fiction with reality began to pour in one after another.
Dokgo Jun was smiling brightly.
“I guess I should say it’s my personal wish. I hope we can become better colleagues.”
“Why did you write a novel about me?”
Seo Kang-rim cut off Dokgo Jun’s words and asked.
Dokgo Jun said with a smile.
“I guess it’s a kind of fandom? I like you, and I wanted to share what I saw with the world.”
In Dokgo Jun’s new work, ‘Seo Kang-rim’ is portrayed as heroic and idealized to the point of being a bit extreme.
Because of this, there were quite a few people who said that their thoughts about the real Seo Kang-rim changed after seeing the Seo Kang-rim in the novel.
However, Seo Kang-rim did not look particularly pleased.
“Did you think I would be happy about this?”
“Huh? Was it not that good?”
Dokgo Jun tilted his head.
Then he thought about something and opened his mouth.
“I wrote you as a possessed person on purpose because I thought you might be a regressor. Are you a possessed person by any chance?”
It was Dokgo Jun who was still talking nonsense.
Seo Kang-rim continued talking without getting angry or agitated, knowing full well that he was a crazy person.
“It’s a waste of time to discuss common sense with you. First, stop the series.”
“No! How much do readers hate writers all year round!”
“You are my colleague, yet you do not listen to my orders?”
At those words, Dokgo Jun looked slightly troubled.
I don’t want to do it all year round, but I also don’t want to get on the wrong side of Seo Kang-rim.
He said with a grin.
“Of course I’m your colleague… … but I’m a bit like that all year round.”
“Then I’ll let you serialize it conditionally.”
“What if it’s a condition?”
Seo Kang-rim took something out of the water and held it out.
At first glance, it looked like an ordinary piece of paper, but it was overflowing with magical power.
Dokgo Jun narrowed his eyes.
“It’s a pledge, right?”
The ‘Oath’ was more than just a simple contract; it was an item that imposed fatal penalties.
While Dokgo Jun was looking over the oath, Seo Kang-rim continued speaking.
“If you want to continue writing the novel, sign that pledge.”
Dokgo Jun briefly glanced over the contents of the oath.
And as soon as he saw it, he said in a tone of admiration.
“Wow, this is a total scam contract.”
As he said, the contents of the oath were applied unfavorably to Dokgo Jun.
Normally, it would be a level where you would rush out and run away.
[Seo Kang-rim (hereinafter referred to as “Party A”) and Dokgo Jun (hereinafter referred to as “Party B”) enter into the following agreement regarding the work below.]
[‘Eul’ responds to all requests regarding ‘Gap’s’ novel.]
It was an absurd condition.
Dokgo Jun smiled brightly after looking at the contract.
“Seo Kang-rim, isn’t this too much? Even though I said I would do anything, I’m not stupid.”
“Considering what you’re doing, I think this level of sanction is necessary.”
As he said that, Seo Kang-rim tapped the oath and looked at Dokgo Jun.
“If you agree to my conditions, I will let you continue the series.”
“Hmm. But this is a bit… … .”
Dokgo Jun looked hesitant for some reason.
No, I was pretending to hesitate.
He smiled, his eyes curling.
“If you grant me one more condition, I will make you sign the contract.”
“What if it’s a condition?”
“I have a question. Seo Kang-rim, who is Baek Young?”
As the name Baekyeong came out of his mouth, Seo Kang-rim’s eyes turned cold.
I have a rough idea of where Baek Young got his name.
Shin Soo-ah used her right to ask questions about Seo Kang-rim.
If Dokgo Jun was interested in me, I expected that he would use the right to ask questions for a similar purpose.
Dokgo Jun continued speaking with a smiling face.
“The last time I went to the new temple, I asked you what you asked when you used your right to ask questions.”
Seo Kang-rim recalled the three questions he had asked.
The first question is who is the god that came down to you when you were a child?
The second question is why Baek Young is targeting himself.
The third question was where the Seocheon Flower Garden was.
“I wonder who the god who came down to you was, and I wonder about Baekyeong too.”
Dokgo Jun said with a calm smile.
“So, I’d like you to tell me more in detail. About who Baek-young is. If you tell me, I’ll make you sign the contract.”
“Okay. Okay.”
When Seo Kang-rim readily agreed, Dokgo Jun looked surprised.
He said as if he was puzzled.
“I thought you would refuse.”
“But I won’t tell you now. It’s not the right time.”
“Hmm. Given Seo Kang-rim’s personality, there’s no way he’d pretend not to know later… … .”
Dokgo Jun thought about it for a moment, then picked up the pen in front of him.
As I signed the pledge, magical power shone through my flowing handwriting.
He handed the pledge over to Seo Kang-rim.
“Okay, that’s it. Can I start writing novels again now?”
“Okay. But before you upload, I will always check your manuscript.”
“Wow, you keep looking at my novels. That might be nice.”
While Dokgo Jun was laughing quietly, Seo Kang-rim got up from her seat.
I thought he was going to just leave the room, but he opened the door and stood in front of it, looking at Dokgo Jun.
“Follow me.”
“huh?”
Dokgo Jun looked bewildered, but obediently followed Seo Kang-rim’s instructions.
As we got on the elevator, it started moving downward.
As I opened the door to the empty room in the basement, a desk and a laptop sitting on it caught my eye.
“Seo Kang-rim, where am I… … .”
-Clap
I heard the lock engage.
When Dokgo Jun looked back, Seo Kang-rim was gone and the door was locked.
Now I looked and saw that the door wasn’t an ordinary door, but had a small hole in it, like a prison cell.
Seo Kang-rim’s face was visible through the hole.
“This is the studio you will be using from now on.”
