Omniscient Reader's Perspective

Episode 2–Protagonist (5)

Episode 5 - Protagonist([-])

It would have been a very comical sight if anyone else had seen it.A tall adult man was grabbed by the neck and hung like a monkey.

I can see Lee Hyun Sung looking over from the other side of the bridge.His expression was anxious, but he couldn't actually see what was going on here.This is because of the safe room.I can see over there, but they can't see here.

"Name."

"what?"

"What's your name?"

Look at this nonchalant way of speaking, like a protagonist, but it's not good to provoke him here.

"The only son of gold."

"Astrangename."

"Strange name."

"I've heard that a lot."

At this moment, my stomach sank, Liu Zhonghyuk's fist hit my stomach, and I felt the inside turned upside down.

"......what."

Despite the tough skin capable of deflecting the knife, the attack was excruciatingly painful.

"You have a strong body, have you mastered the coin yet?"

"the same as you......"

With a bang, I got hit in the stomach again.I barely swallowed even a groan.

This guy, his strength level is at least 15.It's on this scale despite only having one major and one minor scenario happening.In fact, natural monsters are different.

"Stop the unnecessary nonsense. Just answer my questions from now on. Got it?"

I didn't answer.I think it might happen.However, this is the worst case scenario that I desperately hope never happens.

In the beginning, Yoo Jong Hyuk was more intimidating than anyone else.

After three comebacks, his personality has frayed.In order to remain self-aware, he discards principles.The current Yoo Jong Hyuk never hesitates for his own goals.

"your answer?"

"I will."

"Use honorifics."

"What if I don't want to?"

This time, I raised my hands to block the fist.It hurt like my bones were broken, but the shock was gone.Liu Zhonghyuk's eyes widened, as if a little surprised.

[The character "Yoo Jong Hyuk" is wary of you. ]

That's okay, I'm not going to be a punching bag just because he's the main character.

"Sorry, you are younger than me, professional gamer Yoo Jong-hyuk. Therefore, you should use honorifics."

"you know me?"

"I know, I'm an employee of a game company."

That's a lie.Even if I work for a gaming company, it's impossible to memorize the names of all the professional players.Also, until recently, Yoo Jong Hyuk was just a character in a novel.

"You are famous, I used to be your fan."

Being famous is only part of the storyline, however, it's not a lie that I'm a "fan"

I love, hate, complain and cheer Yoo Jong Hyuk's story, which is why I've been with Yoo Jong Hyuk for over 3000 chapters.

"Fans, I haven't heard this word for a long time."

There was a nostalgic look in Yoo Jong Hyuk's eyes, as if he was locked in memories.However, this is only for a moment.

"I forgive your rudeness this time, but your situation has not changed."

"I can see it."

I looked down at my legs dangling in the empty space.

"I just have one thing to ask."

"Just ask."

"How did you survive the subway?"

This is exactly the question I was expecting.

"Will you forgive me if I answer?"

"Wait and see."

That's a lie.I knew it by looking at his face.I am the only reader of Inactivation Law.Many possible tracks are simulated in my head.What can I say to convince this returnee?

Your understanding of the character "Yoo Jong Hyuk" is increasing.Your understanding of this person is already very high

what?

[The conditions for using the second stage of the exclusive skill "Omniscient Reader's Perspective" have been met!]

[Do you want to activate exclusive skills?]

After a while, I was able to read other people's minds like a waterfall.

"Only Lee Hyun-sung and Kim Nam-woon should have survived" "But Kim Nam-woon died, others survived"

"How did you survive?"

"Who the hell is this guy?"

"Dig data, if you find any interference factors... shoot and kill"

Thoughts flashed by.

It's obviously a crisis situation, but I can't stop the corners of my mouth from rising.

The remaining time before this scene ends is 5 minutes.

I set out to tell the story, and I told it in as many succinct, short, and precise words as possible.

From the moment the "ghost" appears in the subway all the way to the end of the first scene.Of course, I ruled out the skills I have and any significant issues.

"...You kill the insect and you solve the scene?"

"We're lucky."

Liu Zhonghyuk was surprised, he seemed to forget that his mouth was open.

“The future has completely changed”

He was shocked.Initially, people in carriage 3807 would kill each other in a battle royale, and only Lee Hyun-sung and Kim Nam-woon survived.

"Your eyes are sharp. How did you know there were insects in the compartment?"

Killing intent filled Yoo Jong Hyuk's eyes as my thoughts raced through my mind.

"Is this person also a memory returner?"

"If so, I'll kill him now"

People who make the mistake of thinking everyone is talking about it.I'm not surprised he misunderstood me.I opened my mouth quickly.

"explode."

"explode?"

"I found an insect due to the explosion in the front car."

Liu Zhonghyuk's body stopped in these words.

"Explain in a simpler way."

"When the explosion happened, a kid fell over and dropped his insect-collecting net. I picked it up by accident."

"It's a suspicious coincidence."

"Coincidence is always suspicious. If you don't believe me, ask someone outside the ward. The boy standing there dropped the net."

On the way to Yushui Station, people climbed over the security fence and looked in this direction.The scene isn't over yet, so they can't approach us or talk to us.

Yoo Jong Hyuk looked around, but there was no sign of moving.His eyes changed, and it seemed that memories belonging to Yoo Jong Hyuk flashed through my mind.

"I understand"

"explode"

"This person is not a memory returner"

"He's not the one who changed the future, he changed the future..."

"because I"

I watched people die in agony in a powerful explosion, Yoo Jong Hyuk watched with a blank face.

"Because I started killing them, unlike the others"

Due to the influence of the omniscient reader's perspective, I can feel Yoo Jong Hyuk's mental pain.

"Have you finished your question?"

"...Yes."

"So can you let me go? Let's go to Yushui together. There is not much time left."

"It's hard."

However, the protagonist is the protagonist for a reason.

"Everything you say makes sense."

I've never seen a protagonist as cautious as Yoo Jong Hyuk.

"Beginners can't be so calm" "He's adapted exceptionally well to the changed world"

"He may have killed Kim Nam-woon"

"He is no longer useful, but dangerous"

Liu Zhonghyuk's right eye began to shine with a golden light.I quickly realized what he was doing.In fact, it would be weird if the guy didn't use that

Sage's eye.Yoo Jong Hyuk's strongest detection skills.Sage's Eye is an SS-level skill that displays the target's attribute window and hidden information.

As long as he uses it, I cannot avoid revealing my identity.On the other hand, I think it's a good thing.

I still don't know my 'attributes' and 'skills'.If Yoo Jong Hyuk finds out my information, I can also understand myself.Then, I hope to be able to use what I've learned to get out of the situation.

[Exclusive skill "The Fourth Wall" is activated!]

[The fourth wall has been detected using the detection skill Sage's Eye!]

Sparks flew in the air, and Liu Zhonghyuk's body trembled.

"...Ugh, what?"

Yoo Jong Hyuk covered his right eye and looked at me in confusion.

"You...what is your identity?"

Sorry, I was wondering the same thing.

[Exclusive skill The fourth wall blocks the Sage's Eye!]

I didn't know I was still capable of resisting the Sage's Eye, the fourth wall after the bookmark.

This matter is complicated, and Yoo Jong Hyuk won't believe me now.

"I have to kill him here"

He is a man who does not believe in the unknown.

"Liu Zhonghe."

Then I also need to change plans.

"You need a reliable partner."

"What's the meaning?"

"You can't break through scene 46 alone. Shouldn't you be very aware of that?"

Liu Zhonghyuk narrowed his eyes.

"How do you know? Maybe you—"

"It doesn't matter how I am."

I stared straight into Yoo Jong Hyuk's eyes and said.

"The important thing is that I can help you."

"He's not a returner, and if he were, I wouldn't miss him"

"Then who is this man?"

"Maybe"

If I can't hide my cards, and I can't turn over the best cards, there's only one way out. ? That is to play a card technique that will cause the opponent to misunderstand.

"Liu Zhonghyuk, I know a future that you don't know."

[The character "Yoo Jong-hyuk" used the "polygraph" skill.

[A lie detector has confirmed your words to be true. ]

Liu Zhonghe's eyes slowly widened.

"How did you do it?"

"Otherwise what should I do?"

"Impossible, are there any other prophets besides Anna Croft? Also in Korea?"

prophet.In the book "Inactivation Law", it is the only attribute that can see the future, and passively "negates all detection skills" In fact, in the world of Inactivation Law, there is only one person with the "prophet" attribute Attributes.

"Only a Prophet can defend against the Sage's Eye"

I didn't answer, Yoo Jong Hyuk bit his lip.

"Can you use 'Future Sight'?"

"It's something like that."

"You knew I'd come."

"Yes."

"I get it. If the man is a prophet, all his actions are persuasive."

The atmosphere is changing.Liu Zhonghyuk's mood swings were transmitted directly.This is the only chance.

"I know Yoo Jong Hyuk has special abilities. You also know about the future. Right?"

"..."

"But this knowledge will never be perfect."

Returners' only weakness.

This means that when they use information about the future, the future changes.In other words, all returnees end up living in a "world they don't know." "Let me be your companion. I can fill in what you're missing."

No one can be a better "prophet" than Yoo Jong Hyuk.

In fact, now I can play the role of a seer.Because I am the only reader of this story.

[It's over in 1 minutes]

Liu Zhonghyuk lowered his head and began to think.

"A Prophet Will Surely Help"

[There are 50 seconds left to complete this scene. ] Not just the 46th, but the later fight with "Saratustra" but... can I really trust him?" [40 seconds until the end of this scene]

"companion".

I was staring at Chung distractedly when Yoo Jong-hyuk looked up at the end.

"I have already decided, I want you to be my companion."

[Excessive immersion has seriously worn down your mental strength][Exclusive skills, the omniscient reader's perspective has been turned off]

I'm not sure if it's fatigue or relaxation, but this unique skill is unleashed.Now Yoo Jong Hyuk's face is as difficult as a philosophy book without commentary.

Yoo Jong-hyuk started taking me across the 'flat bridge' of course, I was still grabbed by the collar, but... I thought everything was going to be alright.I convinced the hapless returnee and was in a good position.

We were almost crossing Pingqiao, right in front of the safe zone, when Yoo Jong-hyuk stopped suddenly.

"I'll ask you one last thing."

"what?"

"If you're really a seer, you should know your future, right?"

When I saw Yoo Jong Hyuk's serene eyes, I got goosebumps.His experiment is not over yet.The grip on my collar tightened.

"Look."

His hands lifted me a little, and a breeze blew past my feet.It's completely empty below me.

When the ichthyosaur opened its mouth and jumped towards its prey, the smell of blood mixed with the smell of the Han River.

"Should I let go of this hand?"

I started sweating for the first time.Let me think about it.Even without his thoughts, I know this guy better than anyone.I close my eyes and think of Yoo Jong Hyuk.

[20 seconds to go]

Then I came to a conclusion.

"Liu Zhonghe."

I'm pretty sure what he'll do.No matter what I think, there is no other ending for Yoo Jong Hyuk.

As I spoke, I watched a naval commander walk into the water.

"I'll tell you two things first."

"what?"

"First, I'm not your subordinate, so I hope you treat me fairly from now on."

"..."

"Second, I will cooperate with you, but you must also agree to cooperate with me."

Liu Zhonghyuk looked at me with great interest and nodded.

"So, what's your answer?"

I answered with a smile.

"Get your hands off me and get the hell out of here, you bloody bastard."

Then the power that held me was gone.I was caught by gravity.I see Yoo Jong Hyuk's face and I'm falling.Yoo Jong Hyuk smiled brightly, as if something made him happy.

Son of a bitch.

"I believe you, you are definitely a prophet."

The gigantic Naval Commander's mouth was waiting for me at my crash site.

I closed my eyes and didn't feel the shock of the impact, nor the coldness of the Han River.I took a breath, and a warm, great darkness engulfed me.

[You did not clear the scene. ]

...Damn, I still have to use that method.
