I Was Possessed By A Horror Game And It Turned Out To Be An Arctic Fox? - Episode 148

“Hey, it’s here, it’s here.”

“Everyone is connected!!”

As soon as Castler connected, a simultaneous connection notification turned on in the couple map app. He also checked my location first.

“So Kebab, where should we go now?”

“We must go towards the wall of light.”

“If it’s a wall of light.”

“It is a destination and a hint map that allows you to cycle through the world.”

Casler happened to be near the station, so I told him to stay there, and Castler’s dot on the map became quiet. I heard you listen really well.

“oh… … . “Where are you all going?”

“Take us with you too.”

“Let’s go finish the game! Good job to the new recruits. To give you a tip, I recommend joining the underground team.”

Bori’s sister pretends to have one hand! By posting this, he showed himself as a guide to new users.

“Let’s go!”

On the way to board the train, the rumor spread and existing users who heard that we were leaving for the last mission came and rushed to stop us.

But it was stopped by a few scales thrown by Kebab.

“Stop it!!”

“Ahh.”

Boom, boom. The scales were activated like a bomb and exploded with a loud noise that seemed to explode your ears. Unlike me, who was startled and flinched, everyone was walking away without a problem, as if they had already experienced a lot. Sister Bori even gave me some advice.

“Everyone does it boldly. “This is a famous scene.”

“yes… … . “Then I will become a fox for now.”

“Heh.”

I was numb when I heard that it was a famous scene, so I hurriedly transformed into a baby fox. And at that moment, the man who was about to attack us stopped.

“Why did the attack suddenly stop? “I have to catch it!”

“… … “There is a baby fox.”

“That’s a user!”

“You can’t harm animals… … .”

Meow meow.

I spun around and passed in front of him with a smile. Then the man who had been attacking us just now smiled brightly and bent down to give me a high five.

And before long, Castler appeared. He spotted me from afar and sat down low, so I jumped into his arms.

“The most beautiful fox in the world came running to me.”

Meow meow.

“We’re leaving.”

We crossed what was left of the desert. Residents of a village nearby, sparsely opened by kebabs, waved at us. When I got off the train after passing a few villages, I saw a desert road with no end in sight.

“Hehe. “How much further do we have to go?”

“I think I just need to walk for two more days. “I think I just need to walk for two more days.”

After walking for three days, we arrived at a place where a wave of light like an aurora was crossing the ground like a wall.

“It is said that souls traverse the desert in search of this wall of light. But not every soul can see this. “Only a few souls dreaming of rest can see it.”

“Is it more authentic because it’s not easy to see?”

Da-hoon Jeong opened the guest book that was beautifully placed in front of the wall of light. Then, the last messages left behind by the beings who passed through this wall of light came out one after another.

I read them while being held in Casler’s arms. In the very last page, there were traces of Iljjanggui and Ijjanggui.

“These pilgrim spirits polluted the desert by drinking and smoking all the time, but it seems they have finally succeeded in entering eternal rest. “I feel somehow proud.”

Meow.

We slowly turned the pages forward and looked at the traces in reverse chronological order. The names of countless children looking for their parents passed by, and there was a familiar name on the very first page.

“Aren’t you the lord of Shadow Castle? “That kid with only eyes.”

These were the words left behind by Casler. Casler quietly looked down at the phrase and smiled slightly. Previously, I had only heard that he gave rest systematically, but it seems that he personally helped me find the path to rest in this way.

I finally understand why the in-game time suddenly jumped by 100 years between the beta launch and the official server launch. Was it a period when the child was wandering around looking for rest?

“But Joo-won, if we leave here, won’t we disappear?”

“that’s right.”

“So now, even when players die, they don’t play league games and are resurrected from the dead?”

“There will be a handicap for resurrection after death, but the details are still being discussed. “Wouldn’t my skill level drop, or would I wander around as a soul and find a new body?”

“Oh, it’s amazing. Anyway, now the choice is whether to stay here and have fun or go out and become a fan hero in real life. “I am Dochu without change.”

I glanced at Casler. The world is moving from disposable lives to RPGs… … Is this the concept you originally planned?

There is a bit of reasonable suspicion that this is a policy for an unknown possessor, and that it is a concept reorganized to offset the aftereffects on the world caused by the sudden disappearance of children by arbitrarily cutting them out.

“Shall we also write a guestbook?”

In order, we wrote down the guestbook. Next, it’s Castler’s turn. He concentrated on writing something down carefully. Then it’s my turn.

… … I asked what he wrote. I ended up simply stamping the front paw print next to it. This won’t be shown on air, right?

“Let’s go now.”

Various notifications popped up. And I tried connecting again.

[Fox Forest / Beginner]

In vain, all of our stats and abilities were reset. The only thing that changed was the ability to choose a restart point.

‘I did it because everyone wanted it.’

The ability was lost in exchange for world expansion. I suddenly felt like I had suffered a huge loss when the result of the character I had worked so hard to develop was deleted.

By the way, I guess I only assisted in this version. In many ways, it was fortunate that Kebab performed unexpectedly.

His occupation was an undertaker, but his last appearance was as an innocent baby fox and he played an active part in the image of Jeong Da-hoon, so even if it is broadcast in the future, it will be edited based on Jeong Da-hoon.

‘Ha, something feels uncomfortable.’

When I first started squad mode, I couldn’t refuse it because I had to sign a ‘consent for broadcasting of my performance in case of victory’. The winning prize was 1 billion won, and you had to agree to the conditions to participate, so honestly, it was just a matter of whatever happened now.

… … And as always, the fears became reality.

The winning prize of 1 billion won was received early. Since none of us were the type to appear in the media, we received individual deposits after participating in the virtual award ceremony, and our five members were featured on the homepage screen. The rest of the team was on either side of me as my character, a baby fox, dynamically jumped towards the camera.

The composition is good, but I think I’m too centered… … .

And below that, in large letters, was written the broadcast date of ‘The Adventure Story of the First Expanders’ along with the phrase ‘Enjoy the expanded world of death!’

That was today.

High hanging windows, wooden walls with wooden tiles, and a beam projector in the center that boasts movie-like picture quality.

“welcome.”

“Wow, I like the house. Thank you for inviting me. Toilet paper here! “I hope everything goes well in this house!”

It was a belated housewarming.

Everyone in the chat room gathered together to watch today’s broadcast. It happened to be 9 o’clock on a Saturday, which was a prime time slot, so everyone, even Haru-noona and Mr. Kim, were able to join in.

“There are glasses there. If you want to watch it in 3D, watch it.”

“Wow, Urim. The quality is crazy. “I want to live here.”

Haru’s older sister came in first, exclaiming with admiration.

“Hello, I washed up properly.”

Next, kebabs were carefully brought in. As he was about to sit down in the far corner, his older sister Haru and her furry friend pulled him next to me.

“Ha, the air is different here.”

“It’s an air purifier. Come in.”

Soon, everyone was sitting down, holding drink cups with their names on them and popcorn.

“It’s starting.”

“I’m nervous, baby.”

Castler, who saw Jeong Da-hoon pretending to be trembling and fawning over his girlfriend, did not remain still.

“I’m nervous too, honey.”

Casler quietly picked me up and sat me down on his lap. And then the hand that was holding the boat collapsed.

As I was staring at the screen a little nervously, the commercial ended. I guess everything I requested has been edited out, right?

[Please keep the fact that I can speak in fox form a secret from him. I want to protect his romance.]

[Hao beep. The game beeps together.]

[You bastards. Do you want to be beaten?]

I almost screamed when the screen filled with a baby fox muttering in a sarcastic tone with its snout open. There’s even an image of a psychopathic fox kicking a disobedient lizard and secretly grinning.

“… … .”

Then, when Castler appears, he smiles brightly and wags his tail as if he had never done that before.

… … The two faces of a fox. Why is there a scene like that? … .
