How a Calamity Necromancer Retires
Chapter 102
“Skeleton Theme Park.”
When I invited a planner who planned a famous theme park in Korea and explained what I had envisioned, I said with my eyes shining.
“That is interesting. Originally, the concept of a theme park is half eaten.”
“Yes?”
“A theme park with rides made of skeletons and served by skeletons. Clearly this is a possibility. But there is a problem.”
The planner said while writing something on a piece of paper.
“For a theme park to succeed, three conditions must be met. Concept first. Well, as I just said, this is truly unrivaled, so skip it, and the second one is scale and fun, but if this is money, as long as there is nothing to be envious of, if the chairman decides and solves the bundle of money, this is not a problem, so pass. The problem is number three.”
The planner wrote it down on a piece of paper and said.
“Awareness. To be precise, it must be popular.”
“What do you mean?”
“The reason why Mouse Land has been so successful is that the rides in Mouse Land are fun, but the public’s liking for the mouse animation is extremely high. I can see and feel the mouse that I used to see in cartoons in real life, so I’m going to find it somehow.”
That’s right.
I am also a person who grew up watching mouse animations since I was a child, so it was my wish to go to Mouse Land at least once.
“But isn’t the reason why you conceived the theme park to neutralize Japanese people’s resistance to skeletons? In a word, the precedent has changed. It is to gain popularity and use that popularity to create a theme park, but it has become like creating a theme park to gain popularity.”
does that happen again
“I’d rather make this in Korea, I’m sure it’ll be hugely popular right away, but I don’t know in Japan. Of course, the concept is so unique that one day the resistance will decrease and it will succeed, but it will take time.”
I’m trying to make a theme park to reduce that time, but even that takes time.
“Is there no way?”
Then the planner smiled and said.
“Of course, there is no way. After all, the success of a theme park is whether there is fun that can only be enjoyed there, but isn’t that possible with Skeleton? And there is one thing that Japanese people are familiar with. The House of Horrors.”
A house of horror where ghost dolls come out and scare people.
I thought it would be awesome if we made this not a doll, but a real undead pop out.
However, I soon identified the problem with this system and immediately erased it from my mind.
In the first place, I was trying to find a friendly concept to neutralize people’s reluctance, but the horror house that openly surprises and frightens people was rather a minus.
I said with a skeptical look.
“With the real undead popping out, it will be incomparable to the existing houses of horror, and it is true that it is unique. Then, people with a strong sense of rejection will not come in the first place, and people who have visited at best will not be amplified?”
Then the planner nodded and said.
“you’re right. However, if you set the direction well, you may be able to elicit a rather good response.”
“directional?”
“The original House of Horrors is a very passive amusement facility. It’s all about just walking and being surprised by something that pops out. But what if we gave you something to actively deal with instead of passively here?”
The planner said with her eyes shining.
“Even if it’s not the case, I just heard the president’s words and something came to my mind. Is it possible to disguise the skeleton as if it were smashed?”
“It is possible.”
“Then it’s perfect. For example, something like this. Gives a sword to anyone who enters the House of Horrors. And if you attack the skeleton that suddenly jumped out with that sword and hit a specific part, the skeleton will break.”
Oh oh?
“When a skeleton is smashed like that, you get experience points. If you keep going inside and level up by dealing with the undead that suddenly pop out, then fight the boss and defeat that boss, you will succeed.”
“Isn’t that an RPG?”
“you’re right. It mixes the Japanese favorite RPG into a house of horror. Wouldn’t it be a little less repulsive if you repeatedly implanted the experience of defeating the undead instead of just being surprised by them?”
hey
is this okay?
After all, famous planners are different.
“Don’t Japanese like other worlds or things like that? to satisfy this need. When you come to the theme park in Seron, you can feel the experience of an adventure in another world.”
another world?
In this world, I’m an expert.
I said raising the corner of my mouth.
“Do you want to make a mini Seron Continent?”
From nob le mtl dot com
Mix it with RPG and create a world full of adventure and romance.
I looked at the planner and said.
“A house of horror mixed with RPG, let’s talk about it seriously.”
*
“I’m bored.”
A friend said to Kiyoshi’s words.
“Shall we go to karaoke?”
Then Kiyoshi shook his head and said.
“I’m tired. Anything different and interesting?”
“Can there be such a thing?”
Kiyoshi said as he stretched his body.
“Thanks to Seron, I sold energy and my wallet got thicker, but I have nothing to do.”
With the introduction of Seron’s energy purchase and energy trading market to Fukuoka, many changes have taken place in the lives of residents.
People who enjoy more leisure life thanks to the additional income of tens of thousands of yen.
However, although there are many facilities for tourists, there are no amusement facilities only for locals, so it is bound to be boring.
“Ahh. I also want to get hit by a truck in my previous life and go to another world.”
“Crazy. Kick kick.”
A friend who giggled at Kiyoshi’s words pointed to a passing truck and said,
“Here comes the truck. do you know Is that a former truck? Go hit it.”
Kiyoshi looked at the truck without thinking at those words.
However, Kiyoshi’s eyes widen when he sees the truck.
“uh?”
The truck my friend pointed out was not a normal truck, but a promotional truck with a billboard on it.
However, the phrase on the promotional truck catches Kiyoshi’s attention.
The truck read:
-Come to the Seron continent full of adventure and romance!
“Seron Continent?”
Seeing Kiyoshi’s reaction, a friend who checked the truck with him said.
“I heard that the Seron Group is making something on the outskirts, is that that?”
“okay?”
“uh. It seems to have been completed after construction on a fairly large site. But what the hell is that Seron Continent? Skeletons are also drawn. Is it like a theme park?”
At those words, Kiyoshi stood up and said.
“Shall we go?”
“Aren’t you afraid of skeletons?”
“What are you afraid of? If it was really dangerous, Koreans would have already died? why. Are you scared?”
At that, the friend said in a fit of anger.
“What are you afraid of?”
“Then let’s go. You have nothing to do anyway.”
“good. let’s go!”
“see. The address is…”
*
Kiyoshi and his friends arrive on the newly formed Seron Continent in the outskirts of Fukuoka.
It was a fairly large dome-shaped continent, but it was not known yet, so the entrance was quiet.
“Let’s go in.”
Kiyoshi and his friend went to the box office at the entrance and checked the price.
“Five thousand yen?”
Entrance fee is quite expensive.
Kiyoshi pondered for a while, but the words adventure and romance kept coming to mind, so he finally took out 5,000 yen from his wallet, paid the entrance fee, and went inside. Soon after, the guide started explaining.
“You will now enter the Seron continent full of adventure and romance. Although there are ferocious monsters and undead lurking on the Seron continent, if you are the chosen ones, you will be able to overcome them. Good luck then.”
After hearing the explanation like a game prologue, I opened the closed door and went inside. What I saw was two swords stuck on the floor.
As Kiyoshi draws his sword in the shape that anyone can see, a voice flows out with a loud sound effect from the sword.
– You have been chosen.
“select?”
Then, like Kiyoshi, a friend who drew a sword said.
“What? I still can’t feel it.
“Let’s go in first. You’ll know when you go in.”
“okay.”
Kiyoshi and his friend went inside with the sword.
“and······.”
And they couldn’t help but admire.
Inside the dome-shaped Seron continent, there was a dark forest.
At that time, my friend kept going to the side and said.
“This side is blocked.”
“Maybe it’s telling you to keep going along the road.”
“This is a bit artificial. But why is the atmosphere so gloomy?”
That time when I was walking down the street with my friend.
Dalgrak. Dalgrak.
A skeleton holding a sword suddenly pops out of a blind spot.
“omg!”
Kiyoshi and his friends are surprised by the appearance of the skeleton.
Then a skeleton discovers them and strides towards them with a sword raised.
“Do, let’s run away!”
However, at the words of such a friend, Kiyoshi snorted.
“Hey, did you think you gave us a sword for nothing? It’s called fighting.”
“Didn’t you see the video of Jihyeok Han’s skeleton slicing up monsters!? How can we win!”
“Wake. This is a playground! There’s no way you had a really strong skeleton.”
Kiyoshi confidently approaches the approaching skeleton.
Then the skeleton screams and runs.
“Chur!”
Kiyoshi was taken aback by the sound for a moment, but upon closer inspection, it was only a loud noise.
Kiyoshi lightly dodged the sword and attacked the skeleton with the sword he was holding.
And the moment Kiyoshi’s sword strikes the skeleton.
-Ding!
Patter!
With a ding sound, the skeleton is smashed and falls.
And then a voice came out of the sword.
– You have gained 1 experience. 9 experience points until the next level up.
At those words, the corners of Kiyoshi’s lips twitched.
“Catch the skeleton and raise the level, right? Did you make it quite well?”
Kiyoshi looked back at his friend and said.
“let’s go! I paid for it, but I have to enjoy it properly!”
*
Skeletons popping out of nowhere in a gloomy atmosphere.
And when a voice came out from the sword saying that his physical strength had decreased when he was hit without being able to block the skeleton’s surprise attack, Kiyoshi and his friend knew for sure only then.
That this is an RPG world with a house of horror concept.
That time when he moved carefully and kept catching the skeleton.
– Your level has risen.
A voice came out from Kiyoshi’s sword that he had caught 10 of them first, saying that the level had risen.
-Awakening the ability of the sword of fire. Calling Fire Sword will cast it.
“Have you awakened your abilities?”
Just when you get something new like that.
“Keeeh!”
Something appears with a loud sound.
Thinking that it must be a skeleton like before, Kiyoshi and his friend immediately turned their heads and said with their mouths wide open.
“Yu, a ghost!”
It was a ghost emitting blue light.
The appearance of a ghost floating in the air with a grotesquely distorted face is truly fear itself.
“Aww!”
As the friend who had barely adapted to the skeleton was terrified again, Kiyoshi stepped forward and swung his sword again.
but.
Booung!
The sword just brushes past the ghost and does no damage.
“uh?”
Rather, Kiyoshi was attacked by a ghost.
-Health decreased by 2. Remaining stamina 17.
Kiyoshi stepped back and said.
“The attack doesn’t work!”
Judging from the voice saying that his health was low, it was clear that this ghost was also one of the deployed monsters, but the attack didn’t work.
At that time, Kiyoshi remembered the sword of fire he had just awakened.
“okay! Ghosts can only be hit by elemental attacks!”
Then Kiyoshi shouted.
“Fiery sword!”
Then, wouldn’t the fire really come out straight from the sword?
“and······.”
Kiyoshi, who was stunned at the fantastical figure, put his hand on the blazing fire.
“Isn’t it hot? How did you implement this?”
At that time, the friend pointed a finger at the ghost and said.
“How do you do that guy quickly! It’s coming towards you!”
Kiyoshi, who came to his senses at those words, swung his fiery sword at the ghost.
Then, the ghost struggles differently than before and suffers.
“Kieack!”
“It’s eaten!”
After so many knife cuts, the ghost slowly disappeared.
-You gained 3 experience points.
“and······.”
At first, he was caught off guard by saying it was an amusement facility, but Kiyoshi was completely immersed in it, creating tension with suddenly popping skeletons and ghosts, and even feeling as if he had been chosen for real and awakened his abilities.
“Are you crazy?”
The friend who came to his senses at that time said in a cold sweat.
“This is too real.”
“That’s right, it’s probably because he’s a real summoned beast. You’re awesome though Where can I go and experience something like this!”
“That’s right. Ah-oh. My heart hurts.”
“Let’s keep going.”
Defeating the ghost like that and continuing to move forward, suddenly a brightly lit village appears unlike the dark surroundings.
And Kiyoshi read the signboard written there.
“The Town of Beginnings?”
When I went into the village like that, I saw various stalls and people were walking around.
At that time, a person approached Kiyoshi and his friend with a surprised expression and said,
“Could it be the warrior’s sword? Are you a warrior?”
At those words, Kiyoshi understood.
That this town is an intermediate base and the people here are playing NPCs.
Kiyoshi said with a grin.
“Is this all right? good. Let’s enjoy it properly.”
*
In line with Japan, where there is a steady demand for maid cafes, Koreans may cringe, but the seron continent has been properly localized.
In my heart, I wanted to create a place like a real dungeon and let them experience it, but since it is an amusement facility that requires many customers to enter at the same time, I had no choice but to make it a structure that had to proceed on a date.
That way, people will line up and enjoy their individual adventures.
In addition to that, the Seron continent has a strong test tendency, so the difficulty level was lowered and made quite intuitive.
After passing through the beginning of the tutorial level, going through the starting town, entering the main game, becoming stronger through hunting, and then catching the boss.
And in the future, if the response is good, I was planning to weave a lot of things I’ve experienced at Saeron into a story and create a new concept for each season so that I can have a different experience even if I visit again, but the response is already unusual.
“Guests are coming in like waves.”
Although it’s a concept, it’s the only amusement facility in the world that really allows you to experience dealing with undead monsters.
The planner said with a tear-jerking smile.
“There is also a significant amount of sales coming from the starting town.”
The village at the beginning was serving as a food court and goods shop in a theme park where staff who acted as NPCs received and sold meals and potions to restore physical strength in cash.
Of course, those who go through the starting town have no choice but to spend money separately from the entrance fee there.
I looked at the sales table and said with a smirk.
“You can see how I got to the top 10 in terms of market cap just by running two Mouse Lands.”
The theme park’s net profit margin was simply staggering.
It’s a structure where money keeps rolling in as long as the facilities are managed well and customers are constantly flowing in.
However, even the skeletons never break down, so the maintenance cost is cheap, and the food sold in the starting town is at a profit-making level, so the percentage of net profit that Seron takes is incomparable to that of the manufacturing industry.
“Is this enough success?”
“Definitely a success. Now, if we apply new stories and concepts for each season in the future, the repeat visit rate will increase. ah! Or why don’t you create several Seron continents all over the world and apply different stories to them? Then there may be people who visit the Seron continent around the world.”
nice.
Just hearing that is awesome.
“I am not satisfied with this. Because this is just a test. In the end, we will go to the Skeleton theme park, where all kinds of rides are gathered. The Seron continent is a part of it.”
“I am well aware of it.”
“How do you feel about the skeleton?”
“It’s not exactly accurate since it just opened, but rumors are spreading that it’s fun, so the feeling of rejection will quickly diminish.”
Through the RPG experience of the Seron continent, you often encounter skeletons to reduce resistance and earn money, and it is the best.
When I was looking at the report like that, I said while looking at the distribution of visiting customers.
“By the way, there aren’t many middle-aged customers.”
“I have no choice but to do it because I have to use my body.”
“Is there anything that appeals to middle-aged people? hmm.”
I recalled the things I saw when I went to the amusement park.
“Rides. various foods. Gorgeous decorations.”
Then one thing came to my mind, and I said with a twinkle in my eyes.
“···parade.”
“A parade?”
“Aren’t the characters dressed up and paraded at the theme park?”
“That’s right. That’s one of the main events.”
“Wouldn’t it be nice to plan a parade like that with skeletons and give them the pleasure of watching?”
Then the planner thought for a while and said.
“Then, why don’t we collaborate with a mechanical animation company to recreate the famous scenes in the animation in real life? Even the middle-aged in Japan will be eaten because they grew up watching giant robot cartoons when they were young.”
“Oh oh!”
that’s a nice idea
After all, parades are just people wearing clothes and playing characters.
Still, people are excited about it.
Then, apply a robot skin to a giant skeleton to realize a giant robot, and then use those robots to reproduce the animation in reality.
No matter how well the human character is implemented, there is a sense of difference because the original version is different, but with this, you can make it almost exactly the same.
I said, snapping my fingers.
“That’s nice. If we put fly magic on a giant skeleton robot to implement air combat and make it have a flashy effect like a warrior’s sword, people will rush at it in a frenzy, right?”
At my words, the planner lowered his head and said.
“If you leave it to me, I will come with a proper plan.”
“okay.”
I said with a bright smile.
“After all, isn’t a theme park the realization of romance? Japanese romance, let’s make it come true.”
