ReLife Player Chapter 404

Relife Player 404

[Chapter 118]

[A very essential lie (2)]

Those who participated in the movement led by Jeon A-yeon expressed their intention to participate to their clan and party members.

Afterwards, A-in follows the policy recommended by Jeon A-yeon and announces the importance of A-in to the player industry.

“Hey! You said it was coming from the left! Why is the attack coming from the right!? You almost got hurt!”

[Ehehe, sorry. Are you okay with your injury? I’m really sorry. But now you understand how important a role our demi-humans play, right?]

For example, distorting the navigator’s instructions and conveying incorrect telepathy to party members.

[…] This is a message from Eater. It appears that a trap has been installed 50 meters ahead. If you fall into that trap… . This concludes the message.]

For example, stopping telepathy at an important point.

[…] … .]

For example, not using telepathy at all.

[we! Even demi-humans! It’s a person!]

For example, randomly sending telepathic messages to people nearby.

[Dangun Clan Lord Jang Bong-jeon, listen! Have you been happy exploiting us so far?]

For example, blacklist the names of people who exploited subhumans and hold protests to condemn them.

In this way, Ain people were participating in the movement in various ways.

Of course, because their methods were radical, they also aroused opposition.

However, the voices criticizing them were not that loud.

“If the demi-humans have been so unfairly treated, they would do something like this.”

“I know. I watched them being discriminated against from the sidelines. I’m glad this is happening now.”

“Anyway, the players are also really mean. They discriminate against people in the same industry….”

“Ain is the same person. This movement is a movement for Ain to regain their equal rights, so we who live in a democratic society should support it.”

“It’s unavoidable that damage occurs. That’s how society changes. We have to endure it for the sake of the demi-humans.”

However, the majority of telepathists participated in the movement.

First, players who were friends with the telepaths defended them.

One, the mainstream generation of people in this era pitied the subhumans.

Therefore, industries that require telepathy had no choice but to hire demihumans and be conscious of public opinion.

“Ah, welcome. Sit there.”

“…Why did you call me?”

The industry is struggling.

And as the movement became more heated, the clan had to feel considerable pressure.

In particular, the clan that was blacklisted among the demihumans was suffering a significant blow.

Telepathists go on strike.

Or hold a protest in front of the headquarters.

Those who are conscious of public opinion cut off business partnerships with the clan.

“Why would I have called you? I called you because you are agitating the telepathists in our clan.” “I have never instigated it. Everyone is following the will of telepathist Myeong Chae-hyeon.”

“Anyway, the fact that you are the CEO is an unchanging fact. Yes, Myeong Chae-hyun, the telepathist thing didn’t work out. I’m really sorry.” “I’m sorry, but is this how it comes out?”

Dangun Clan Lord Jang Bong-jeon’s room.

Jang Bong-jeon shrugged his shoulders at the sarcastic remarks of the man with goat horns.

“You don’t really think I want to come out like this, do you? It’s something I can’t help. You guys made it such a big deal, what can I do?”

A human wave triggered by the death of telepathist Myeong Chae-hyeon.

Of course, the Dangun Clan, which has ignited the flame, is a public opinion.

could not avoid criticism.

The Dangun group was already reeling and had to respond to several clan wars.

The position of the Dangun Clan was precarious.

If public opinion had not calmed down like this, the Dangun Clan could have received a B, not an A, at best in this year’s clan rating evaluation.

In the worst case scenario, the clan may be disbanded or the clan lord may be replaced.

As a result, Jang Bong-jeon had to calm down the Ajin wave.

“We’ll resolve it through conversation.”

“You haven’t even tried to listen to our voices properly, and now you want to talk to us?”

“Why? So are we going to keep fighting like this? If we do that, not only will it be a loss for me, but it will be for you too. Do you guys have anywhere to go if Dangun is disbanded? Do you think you can get better treatment there?”

“…….”

“So let’s resolve it through conversation.”

Anyway, demi-humans cannot leave the clan they belong to.

Anyone would do that, but they were hoping for stability and protection.

Although the Dangun Clan has now lost a lot of its prestige, it is still a clan that is evaluated as S-rank.

Unless they are stupid, would they want to throw away the ‘S’ at the beginning of their grade?

As if to prove it.

Ain, who had goat horns on his head, had a sullen expression on his face but did not try to get up from his seat.

“There is no need to go into a long story, let me be blunt. Do you know what the settlement ratio was when Myeong Chae-hyun signed a contract with us?” “Isn’t it obvious? It’s 7:3, 10% higher than us….”

Although it varies depending on the clan, the industry average for the settlement ratio that a player can receive if he or she belongs to a clan was 6:4.

However, in the case of low-quality clans, a 5:5 ratio was assigned to demi-humans or players of a specific category.

In some ways, the Dangun Clan, which ranked Ain 6:4, could be said to be a good level clan.

“Myeong Chae-hyeon said that? Well, I told her to say that, so she must have said that.”

“…What does that mean?” “He wasn’t 7:3, he was 8:2.”

“…….”

Jang Bong-jeon sneers.

Ain Player was speechless.

He was devastated when he heard that she, who had always represented a telepath, had lied about his settlement expenses.

However, he could not help but be even more shocked by the story he heard later.

“At that time, I told Myeong Chae-hyeon that I would give you an 8:2 ratio, and that if the opportunity arose, I would also provide you with an executive position. So, she said it was good and took the lead in allaying your complaints.”

At this moment, Ain Player couldn’t help but feel betrayed as he faced the truth about Myeong Chae-hyeon, whom he had trusted and followed from the bottom of his heart.

He chewed his lips.

And Jang Bon-jeon, who saw that, smiled and held out his hand.

“9:1.”

“…What… are you talking about….”

“If you do what Myeong Chae-hyeon did, I will give you 10% more than her and change the terms of the contract to 9:1. You know that this is a rare opportunity, right? Even in the Dangun Clan, only those who are S-level, the clan’s own level, are treated. Oh, and for the other kids, I’ll give it an extra 5%, making it 6.5:3.5, and for the kids with good performance, I’ll make it 7:3.”

“…Clan Lord. Do you think I’m doing this for money?” “Why? Isn’t it because of this in the end? Well, if you’re not interested, there’s nothing you can do. Then, all I have to do is let you go and call one of the kids under you and tell them the same thing.”

“…….”

In the end, deep concern appeared on the demi-player’s face.

Jang Bong-jeon, who had his legs crossed in an arrogant posture, was satisfied when he saw this.

It’s almost over.

No─.

“—Please give me an executive position.” “Of course we have to take care of that. In the end, someone had to take Myeong Chae-hyeon’s place.”

It has already passed.

Jang Bong-jeon chuckled when he saw A-in abandon his beliefs in a short period of time.

Then Ain laughs along.

Before he knew it, the same smile had spread on his face.

“Then please take care of me.” “Yes, please leave it to me.”

The enemies of the demi-humans are neither people nor players.

The enemies of demi-humans are the same demi-humans.

Although they call for equality, in the true sense, equality does not exist.

They themselves will never want to be equal.

“Jeon A-yeon, you should also leave the group. They seem too radical in nature, hey.”

“Haha, I understand. I will explain it well to the kids below.”

“Yes, I only trust you.”

There is no equality in this world, and the enemy of demi-humans will ultimately be demi-humans.

This is a very fundamental lie.

Unless they figure it out, they will end up just spinning around in circles.

If public opinion calms down, neither you nor your difficult-to-handle colleagues will leave you alone, so know that.

I will only entrust you with the difficult and unpleasant tasks so that you can eventually leave the clan on your own.

Jang Bongjeon laughed inwardly.

On this day, situations similar to what happened in the Dangun Clan also occurred in other clans.

Those who have already taken power never easily give up what they have in their hands.

☆

Slowly, demihumans representing the player’s position began to appear.

The demi-humans accused them of being traitors.

The pattern of people biting and tearing at each other made public opinion tired, and among those who wanted to create an ideal world, there were many who left because they were disappointed by the demi-humans’ conflict of interest.

It was bound to fail from the beginning.

There are so many people in the world today who move with a noble purpose.

We talk about equality, but in the end, it is no different from winning over interests.

And the justice that people cry out for exists in different ways depending on the number of people.

Even though the essence is the same.

No, only the essence is the same.

Therefore, unless only the essence is left, numerous definitions never come together.

So far, they have been deceived by the lie that they will be able to get together.

How many idiots are there in the world… .

This is a situation where one Ain has come to represent Ain.

If even one person causes a problem, the other students will be criticized as well.

However, how can even one of the sub-humans gathered under Jeon A-yeon’s banner not cause trouble?

“I ruined my assignment because of you!” “Why is it because of me? That’s ridiculous.”

“You spoke telepathically at a critical moment! A monster is charging at you from behind!”

“So who would believe that?”

“What!?”

Eunha suddenly saw students starting to fight in the hallway of the lecture hall.

One was an Ain, and the other was a transfer student from class 031.

“Uh, Kaede.”

“Why are you coming here?”

Students who heard the commotion flocked in.

He found Kaede among them and went to her side.

She frowned, but obediently made room for Eunha to stand next to her.

“What happened?”

“During shooting class, that kid used telepathy on the kids and made them lose their concentration. Me too.” “You too? So, did you do well on the test?”

“Of course I saw it… Why do I have to tell you this?”

Kaede spoke as if she was boasting, but then paused.

She, with her hair cut in a tie-like fashion, responded with a sullen look on her face.

Even so, Eunha had already figured out the entire situation.

Without answering her question, he looked at the students who were in the midst of a fight.

“What did I do wrong? This was just exercise….”

“What? Exercise!? You did this in class last time and I told you not to do it! But are you doing this again!?”

“Well, when we kept asking if we were coming, she tried to climb up. Last time, someone spread the word through telepathy throughout the school that Mi-seon confessed and then got dumped.”

“Someone telepathically spread what I saw in the bathroom yesterday. I feel really bad.”

Even before, students were conscious of public opinion and supported A-In.

They were now feeling irritated by the demihumans’ pranks.

Since most of the students attending the secondary academy belonged to the political and financial world, there was no way they could fully understand the physiology of the underclassmen who grew up at the bottom.

I just pretended to understand.

“…That’s stupid.”

It was then.

Kaede, who was watching their fight, muttered softly.

Eunha nodded and spoke to her.

“Isn’t that cutting off my own flesh?”

Kaede’s eyes turn to him.

It’s a look in your eyes that tells you to say more.

Eunha continued speaking while feeling her gaze.

“The reason Ajin has received less criticism so far is because they were able to help people by using the ability called telepathy. Otherwise, Ain would simply be players with better physical abilities than other people.”

Even if it wasn’t intentional.

Ajin had to prove their usefulness in order to survive the hatred of the people of the world.

That was a telepathist.

They prepared a place for themselves, and in that place, they created trust that they were not harmful to the world and made society accept the demi-humans.

As a result, the reason people living in the present accept demi-humans is because they can ‘trust’ their telepathy.

“But I kicked myself in the foot. If a telepathist distorts telepathy and passes it on to people, who on earth would trust the telepathist?”

Eunha clicked her tongue.

From Ain’s point of view, it was to let people know how important a role telepathists play.

Even if the method is wrong, it is very wrong.

It would have been better to declare a strike.

Even that would cause dissatisfaction among those who need telepathy.

It may be successful only once, but the more strikes are attempted, the more public opinion will eventually turn against them.

“Then… what should I do?”

Right then.

Kaede, who seemed lost in thought, asked bluntly.

She was mixed race.

Although Ain’s position is worse.

The position of foreigners was also harsh.

Eunha guessed that she was thinking about the situation of foreigners in the situation of demi-humans.

“I don’t know either. Why are you asking me that?”

“…you….”

“The world is like this because no one knows.”

Eunha blurted out.

She immediately raised her eyebrows at the answer that was so light.

Even so, he just shrugged his shoulders and wasn’t scared at all.

“However… in this case, it might have been better to work as a telepathist without receiving any compensation.”

Eunha doesn’t know the answer.

It is ultimately the responsibility of those in power to do this.

His job was to protect Ha Baek-ryeon, who would one day become a politician.

Just thinking.

In the end, it is the public sentiment that changes the world, and therefore, in order for Ajin people to change the world, they must hold on to the public sentiment.

Rather, they should have made their social contribution known by providing free telepathy without receiving any compensation.

Then, it may have been possible to capture public sentiment.

“So, even during <Destruction at the End of the Century>, foreigners sacrificed their lives to be recognized by society even if there was no particular compensation.”

“…….”

“That way, the next generation will be recognized, and the generations after that will also be recognized.”

Eunha glanced sideways at Kaede.

Kaede Hoshimiya.

Although she has Korean nationality, she is treated as a foreigner and that may be why she was able to enter the secondary academy.

Even though the academy emphasizes skills, there are other limitations.

Especially if it is a middle school academy composed mainly of children of politicians and businessmen.

Probably because her grandfather was recognized and her parents were recognized.

She would have been able to enter here as a third-generation player.

“…It’s dirty. The world is….”

“But what if I have to live? Actually, there’s no country as good as this, right?”

Kaede muttered.

Eunha answered indifferently.

In Japan, which is surrounded by ocean on all sides, there are endless monsters.

It has reached a point where one Kaguya (かぐや) has to cover the entire archipelago.

The area above Uijeongbu is practically destroyed… .

The North was truly the territory of monsters.

Due to the <Destruction at the end of the century>, all leaders and leaders passed away.

So what about China, which borders North Korea?

The two servants were overworked by their ambition to protect the huge land.

Even so, it was not possible to protect all areas with cocoons, and it was impossible to separate monsters from daily life at all.

At least Korea is better.

So Korea could be said to be at a good level.

“Hey! What are you doing now? Don’t you understand why we’re so telepathic!?”

Eunha clicked her tongue when she saw Jinparang intervene in the students’ fight.

These days, complaints about Jinparang have been going around the Academy.

There were many opinions that it was going too far.

Still, the reason the students couldn’t touch him was because Eunha and his friends were behind him.

“I have to go. Just looking at it makes me sigh. What are you going to do now?”

“house.”

“It’s the same direction. Let’s go.”

“…why me.”

“Then let’s go in the other direction? Is there any other direction here?”

Kaede Hoshimiya bounced like a bowstring.

But the galaxy was out of the question.

In the end, Kaede, unable to refute anything, simply made a noise and followed Eunha.

☆

[Last night at 9 o’clock, there was an incident in which a player died in the process of subduing a monster that appeared in Yongma Tunnel. It is said that this was the result of distorted telepathy sent by the party’s telepath, and that in addition to the player who died, other people were also seriously injured.

Those who were seriously injured were transported to Galaxy Hospital, and the telepathist is known to have participated in a movement led by Jeon A-yeon.]

[Galaxy Research Institute has stated that continuous telepathy has the potential to pollute the human mental state. Even so, due to the recent movement led by Jeon A-yeon, the number of people complaining of mental pain after receiving indiscriminate telepathy is increasing. In Gwangmyeong City, a person was admitted to a mental hospital after being exposed to continuous telepathy… .]

Eventually, public opinion reverses.
