Another World Returner’s Game Streaming

57 – Second Game, Preparation (2)

If you look at martial arts novels, you can find the word Gubaejirye (九拜之禮).

If this word means something, it is said to be a bow held when a teacher and disciple form a bond.

Somewhere it is said that the Gubaejirye is a ceremony to bow to the teacher nine times, and such an explanation could not but be the word itself that Yujin really liked.

A ritual in which a disciple slams his head into the ground nine times as a courtesy toward his master.

As a member of a Confucian nation where age is itself the official position, it was almost thought that there was no ceremony to show respect to the teacher more than this.

So now, in this situation where Yujin accepted her Shia as her disciple, she was experiencing a tremendous internal conflict over whether or not to have her perform her rite of worship.

But after much deliberation, Eugene, out of her great mercy, decided not to let her Shia perform her prayers.

She feels proud that she is not the kind of old-fashioned person who oppresses young people by being bound by traditional Confucian etiquette.

“Sister, I’m sorry. My brother wasn’t such a bad person originally, but since he came home a while ago, he’s been kind of crazy… “

“… Are you coming back home? Maybe Eugene… No, did you go to study abroad somewhere?”

“Uh… study abroad… It may or may not be similar… “

“… ?”

Georeum and Sia were whispering something in small voices, but Eugene didn’t care.

It seemed that the genealogy arrangement had been completed successfully, so it was because they believed that from now on they would be able to communicate more smoothly with each other.

“Um… First of all, what kind of game did you plan to use as content after Nightfall?”

At Sia’s question, Yujin shrugged her shoulders and looked at Winter.

And Winter sighs softly as she answers Shia’s question.

“I don’t know what he was thinking, but I was thinking of recommending One of Thousand to him. Maybe playing a story-driven single game over and over again might instill a fixed image in people.”

“Aha… If you think about it that way, it doesn’t sound like a bad choice.”

One of Thousand.

Abbreviated as Oneosa. Or Thousand.

It is a game that is evaluated to be the best out of existing virtual reality games, and at the same time, it is a game that is said to be the main culprit in making almost all multi-oriented games, including AOS games, extinct.

In the past, even in the first generation of virtual reality games, the games that dominated this industry were none other than AOS genre games.

Yeah, I had no choice but to do that.

Because games in the AOS genre had numerous concrete fans long before virtual reality games appeared in earnest.

Even if the game environment was transferred to a virtual reality game, there was no way that the existence of the fans would suddenly disappear, so this was a very natural phenomenon.

However, as time passed and virtual reality games gradually developed to the point where they were indistinguishable from real ones, the situation began to change.

To be more precise, with the advent of ‘Thousand’, the majority of gamers started to flock to the game enthusiastically.

As for how popular it is, Thousand has already been selected as an e-sports event in the Olympics, beating all other games!

Thousand was a game that encompassed all existing genres of games.

It was possible to have a 5v5 team battle like in AOS games, a 1v1 duel like a fighting game, or a close fight until only one person survives like a battle royale game.

But there was another main reason people were genuinely enthusiastic about Thousand.

It was no different, because anyone in this world could become a special being if they just connected to Thousand.

“Because of Thousand’s ‘unique skill’ system.”

“Unique skill?”

“It is a unique skill given to anyone who accesses Thousand. It should be a kind of privilege.”

Thousand reads the user’s body information and the save data of the games he has played so far, and gives him the right skill.

And among Thousand’s tens of millions of users, not a single one has overlapping unique skills.

Your own skill that only you have in this world, and no one else in the world can imitate!

It was even more strange that people who had only come across Thousand were not enthusiastic about the game.

“Aside from that, there are many unique systems that can only be found in Thousand… For now, I’ll just leave the explanation here. I could spend the night explaining everything, even the smallest details.”

“Hmm.”

“Then, would you like to create an account for Thousand while you are talking about it? It’s something you have to make anyway, so it’s convenient and nice to make it in advance.”

At those words of winter, Yujin tilts her head, as if wondering something.

“But is there any need to create an account now? Can’t we make it in front of the viewers later?”

“… What?”

“The last time I started playing Nightfall, I verified that I was a beginner in a virtual reality game and played it, so the response was good. I wondered what it would be like to go out like that this time.”

Eugene thought he had gotten to the point well after a long time, but Winter looked at him with a puzzled expression.

“Are you crazy? You’re going to reveal your unique skill in front of everyone else watching? What does that mean you’re going to commit suicide in society?”

“… ?”

Since Eugene couldn’t understand Winter’s words, Sia smiled bitterly and said.

“Teacher… Winter’s words are that if the teacher’s unique skill is revealed on broadcast, there may be a disadvantage somewhere later. Unique skills are as powerful as they are powerful, and their weaknesses are obvious, so if they become known, it could be quite lethal.”

“Um… “

To be honest, it was a story that did not make sense to Eugene.

Because in another world, all demons knew the herbivore and weakness of the yam sword he had learned as common sense.

If he had a weakness, he would stop pressing it with more force than that, so why should he care about that?

“For now, it doesn’t seem to make much sense to talk about this and that here. I think it would be better for the teacher to experience Thousand himself than to have us explain it with our mouths.”

After leaving the cafe at Sia’s invitation, Yujin connected to ‘Thousand’ with everyone.

[Welcome to ‘One of Thousand’.]

[You are a new user whose existing account cannot be verified.]

[Would you like to create a new account?]

As Eugene nodded lightly, a light began to shimmer somewhere and then he carefully embraced his body.

[The player’s body information has been verified.]

[‘Nightfall’ has been confirmed as the game you have played so far.]

[Would you like to read the save data of ‘Nightfall’?]

As Eugene nodded once again, the light that had embraced his body became a round sphere, and soon entered his heart.

[Character creation has been completed.]

[Nice to meet you, Soma. I hope you have a good time in ‘One of Thousand’.]

Down-!

At the same time as that phrase, Eugene realized that he was standing in a pure white space.

“Brother, are you here?”

“Character creation was a bit quicker than I expected. I thought you would come here after a while.”

And in that space, Winter and Sia, who had connected to Thousand ahead of Eugene, were waiting for him.

“So what was the unique skill assigned to? My brother must have been endowed with an open firearm skill for some reason.”

“It’s not even an improbable story. Because there are rumors that one of the conditions for the system to select a unique skill for a player is physical.”

Watching Winter and Sia start chattering on either side of him, Eugene opens his mouth.

“Check unique skills.”

[Sword Master]

Description: A unique skill given to those who overcame all unreasonable fates with a single sword and finally cut down the gods of the other world.

Perfectly embodies a sword that has been in contact with, experienced with, or completely understood by the user.

In addition, it becomes possible to reproduce all techniques within the category of ‘sword’.

For the Absolute One who destroyed all things with a single sword, nothing impossible exists.

The one who has reached the pinnacle of the sword is the sword master.

‘… The name of the unique skill must be the owner of the sword.’

From noble mtl dot com

Eugene smiled bitterly at the naming sense, not knowing whether to call it cunning or ridiculous.

It’s almost as if Thousand’s system gave that name to his unique skill after searching the Internet.

“…What is it? This?”

On the other hand, after reading the description of Eugene’s unique skill, Winter and Sia tilted their heads.

Because the description of Eugene’s unique skill was written in too vague words to them.

“What does it mean to be able to materialize the sword you were meant to be in? Brother, do you understand what I mean?”

“Well, maybe I should try it.”

Answering that, Eugene drew a picture in his head of the holy sword Altina, the sword he had used in this world for 20 years.

And then, nothing happened.

‘… After all, it can’t be.’

Well, this is something I didn’t want from the beginning.

Even if it was a world in a virtual reality game, it was impossible to completely embody the holy sword he used in another world.

‘Then, the sword I can implement without difficulty… ‘

At that time, there was a ‘something’ that passed through Eugene’s head.

If it is possible to implement it, ‘something’ that may have a great influence on Eugene’s broadcasts in the future.

‘… By the way, can you say that it’s also a sword?’

But, the other day, I heard that the main body of ‘it’ was a sword, right?

From a broad perspective, ‘it’ can also be said to belong to the category of swords, so it may be included in Eugene’s implementation target.

Since it is a situation where you have to lose money anyway, Yujin drew it strongly in her head and concentrated her mind-

“…No, what a madman.”

And while watching the scene from the side, Winter opened his mouth wide.

“…Hmm. Where is this again? This has been happening too often lately. Last time I was sucked into some singularity, and this time I was even summoned to a strange space…”

The role of Nightfall’s mascot, both in name and reality, and at the same time, an existence that has been active as Eugene’s partner in the broadcasts so far.

That is Yuria, fully embodied here and now.
