Regression Is Too Muchchapter 281

281 – The Returner Advances (7)

After returning to my room.

“I guess… Jeter seems to have high expectations for us.”

“Yes.”

“Junho.”

“Huh?”

“This has come to this, shall we rest a little longer? “There’s not much left until the 30th floor.”

Even though I know it’s really immature if I do this.

“Really?”

I couldn’t help but be happy.

**

This is Choi Ji-won’s house. To be honest, my room was too small for two people to live in, so I moved here based on the logic that my own home would be more suitable for a good rest.

“No, Bungbung! This is too salty! What? “Isn’t this okay?”

In the kitchen, Choi Ji-won is cooking. He insisted on trying a stew he saw on YouTube, but I feel like he and Bungbung are having a hard time coordinating their opinions. If it were me, I would have just ignored the sword’s opinion and cooked it. What does the sword know?

“Hmm… “

Meanwhile, I was browsing the Internet community. Sometimes it’s for information gathering, and sometimes it’s just for fun. Normally, time flies when you lie down and look at your phone. One of the reasons is that really quick information is posted on the community. There is a cause and it is also fun. There is no reason not to do it.

“Jiwon. “Your home’s Wi-Fi is good.”

“Really?”

“Huh. My house is very slow. It’s cool here.”

“Is it because I don’t use it often? No, bungbung!”

I shift my gaze back to my phone. The community was talking about various things as usual, but the proportion of ‘top’ and ‘player’ within it increased significantly.

-Idol status these days… Jpg

-It’s Seoul Station in real time, but damn it

-I also want to be summoned for the tutorial

-Are there any players? Is it possible for a tutorial to last more than two weeks?

“Hmm.”

I gently clicked on the last post.

-Her mother suddenly disappeared, and she was probably summoned to the tutorial due to circumstances. How long is this tutorial? Does it really take this long?

-[Link] According to statistics, one week is the Maginot Line.

-Or maybe she’s just chilling on the first floor… I guess I won’t see this comment anyway.

-He probably passed away.

“Seup.”

The author did not respond to the comments. It wasn’t a very pleasant story, so I immediately clicked on another article.

-I also want to be summoned for a tutorial, gain a trait, and enjoy life by doing YouTube and live streaming. I think this shitty life will turn out as long as I have the traits.

-This bastard seems to be the first to die

-No, you can survive by attacking them

-But if I mix up Top content and curse at him, will I be sued? I can’t see it anyway

-A prosecutor who used to be a lawyer sued you, and a player who used to be a judge sentenced you to prison

“… Tsk.”

Whenever I see posts like this, I feel disgusted without realizing it. Even though I know I can’t help it, I click my tongue reflexively.

Even now, somewhere, players are risking their lives to climb the tower. In the case of Michael Jeter, he was completely ruined. But the general public… I don’t know the fight. I can not know. So, they only look at the characteristics that are the result of the struggle and say nonsense like, ‘It would be nice to be summoned to the tower.’

I, too, used to imagine that it would be nice if there were no regression features. Why should I… He also cried. I don’t think like that anymore. If it weren’t for the regression feature, none of the relationships I know would have existed.

“Is not it. “If it’s a regression, isn’t that nonsense?”

To be honest, I think there are many people who would volunteer to join the tower if they have the regression trait. It was such a good trait, and one that everyone aspired to have. Isn’t this a virtually invincible trait that allows you to correct past mistakes and glimpse the truth of the future?

“It’s done! “Just wait a moment!”

“Uh, okay.”

Suddenly a delicious smell emerges. I need to turn off my phone soon. Finally, click on the text.

-Why I think there are no regressors… Eu

“Why isn’t it there? There is.”

I said that to myself and read the text.

-Honestly, if you have a bullshit trait that causes regression, shouldn’t you have beaten the top a long time ago? If you sent me back, I would probably clear the top within half a year and be hanging out with beautiful women. If it’s not broken yet, there are no regressors.

-Or maybe it’s just incompetent.

-If you read something like a novel, you’ll know that if you have the ability to return but can’t wake up within 10 points, you’re just an idiot. Other people live once and lose 10 times, so does it make sense that you can’t get first place? How much of an idiot are you?

“… “

I was tempted to write, ‘Have you tried it?’, But I ended up thinking that he was probably someone who didn’t know the mechanism of regression and had never been in the tower. Didn’t he say that being ignorant is brave?

“Oh, I’m pissed.”

But maybe it’s because I’m a petty guy. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. Are you just going to find me? But what are you going to do and find it? I’m going to scare you. I can’t find it.

The reactions of others are all stressful, and I wondered how Choi Ji-won could endure such pressure. Okay, let’s just get some attention. In any case, the interest is not paid to the individual, but it is simply scratched by the sentence, ‘If there is a returner, it will be incompetent.’

“It’s done!”

“I’ll go.”

When I went to the kitchen, I saw a rich brown stew giving off a delicious smell. You can tell just by looking at it. This is delicious.

“But isn’t it a bit much?”

“That… Because liver control failed.”

“Aha.”

The amount gradually increased. Normally, players eat a lot, so it’s okay if the portion is a bit large.

“I will eat well.”

Rattling. Rattling. While chatting about various things, we ate the stew that Jiwon had prepared, both on its own and with bread dipped in it. The rich soup is just soup, and the meat was very soft.

“Jiwon.”

Instead of eating, quietly ask a question.

“Huh?”

“Aren’t you burdened by people’s attention?”

“It’s burdensome.”

Choi Ji-won smiles.

“But he’s a stranger. It’s okay.”

“… “You are truly amazing.”

I get stressed by a single article on the Internet, but Choi Ji-won can overlook it so boldly. After all, it is Choi Ji-won.

“I feel so lucky.”

“… Suddenly?”

“Not suddenly. That’s what I always thought. I feel very lucky both as a human and as a returner.”

The regressors in the creations I’ve seen were much more miserable than this.

Even if I repeated the world infinitely, I never met an enemy I couldn’t defeat.

I did not experience the gruesome death of a close friend.

I have suffered the pain of someone I love looking at me with unfamiliar eyes… It was long, but I overcame it.

My mind was not broken by being weighed down by karma that I could not handle.

If there is such a thing as a returner industry, in my case, I would be one of those who take it very easily. Other regressors will be jealous when they see me.

“Instead, Junho, you…” ” The hurdle for regression is very low, right? Even if you just pass by it, it returns.”

“That doesn’t happen much these days either. It was like that in the early days of regression. And you have an incredibly strong and amazing girlfriend, right? Creations don’t usually place munchkins like you around. “I also became incredibly strong.”

“Puh-ha, what is that?”

“No, really. “I have a pretty good work-life balance.”

It’s not work, so it’s not work. Should I call it a circular balance? Anyway, it’s pretty good for me. Now that I am strong enough, the number of unexpected regressions has decreased. There was no longer any despair due to lack of strength. If I were to write a novel about a person like me, it would be safe to say that the genre has changed to munchkin fiction.

“Just… You’re lucky. There are so many good people around me. No, there are so many great people in this world. I am thankful that social order is maintained.”

“Uhm… Is that so?”

“Okay then.”

What if Choi Ji-won was a huge psychopath? Or what if the emperor who is ranked No. 1 has a hobby of slaughtering people? What if Michael Jeter had bad intentions?

Humanity would have suffered a great blow. You may be able to endure it, but you will not be able to recover from the damage. It’s fortunate that this is a world where humanity’s strongest people are kind. I’m glad we live in a world without scary villains. I am fortunate that one of them, Choi Ji-won, is my lover.

“After we got up to the 30th floor… “We decided to prepare for disaster.”

“Right?”

“I remember the locations of monsters… Also figure out your weaknesses. Spread out the strategy. There will be a lot of work to do. You may have to regress several times.”

It’s already burdensome. My shoulders are heavy. But.

“But why don’t I feel like we might fail?”

If you are with Jiwon. I couldn’t imagine myself being frustrated at all.

Mistakes can happen. You will have to go back. But… We will overcome it someday. There are so many good people around me, and as long as I don’t give up, we will win.

“Breaking the 30th floor. Stop the monsters. Climb the tower again… I just think that if I keep repeating this, one day I will be at the top.”

“That’s basically what training is. “If you just repeat what you do every day, you will find yourself at a higher place before you know it.”

“I could just climb the tower like that. Anyway, you’ve already suffered everything you could possibly suffer, right?”

“Phew, that’s right. That’s right.”

“I felt it last night while drinking. Just… “As long as I tried to protect the people around me, my sanity would be fine.”

I am… I guess I’m lucky. I was just lucky as a person. Characteristics too. Inbok too. Besides that.

Above all. I was a happy person. Now I realize it. Thank you again.

“I love you.”

“Me too.”

The night before returning.

We enjoyed each other.

I was happy.

    Junho suddenly gushing about how lucky he is that the strongest people around him are fundamentally good makes me suddenly worry about Dok Soo-hee. Especially with that story from the old man on the 15th floor about how that guy with an inferiority complex ruined the whole world out of jealousy for him.
