Episode 201.
The Seoul Disaster.
An unprecedented incident that shook not only Seoul but the entire Republic of Korea.
This unprecedented event was a horrific event that could well be called a ‘disaster’.
The Seoul Disaster, as the world calls it.
But Siuman could not agree.
I absolutely cannot agree with the statement that Seoul is a ‘disaster’.
That’s understandable, because now it’s beyond the smartphone screen.
Kwak kwakwang! Kwaaaaang!
A blinding light burst out.
An ear-splitting roar erupted.
A monster with monstrous strength and chaos.
Things that could not be explained by the phenomenon were unfolding beyond the screen.
A gentleman with great strength and courage.
(A gentleman does not speak of the strange powers of a violent god).
A gentleman does not speak of a person of great strength and power.
Siwoo was able to fully understand the meaning of those words.
Kwakwakwakwakwang!!
What are you talking about over there!
It’s not that I didn’t say anything, it’s that I had nothing to say.
Just keep your mouth shut.
Even Confucius could only keep his mouth shut.
And what made Confucius keep his mouth shut?
[My protein!!!]
Surprisingly, it was Hercules’ trick.
Yeah, dang it.
[My muscles!!!]
That was definitely nothing more than a ploy!
“……”
Siwoo also kept his mouth shut.
There was really nothing I could do but keep my mouth shut.
At the same time, ding!
A notification window appeared on the screen saying that your proficiency level had increased.
And the reason is….
It seems that there is nothing to say about GodTube’s system.
Well, looking at the level of that bullshit, which is almost at a disastrous level, anyone would feel the same.
Disaster in Seoul?
Seriously, don’t make me laugh.
What happened in Seoul was by no means a disaster.
Kwakwakwakwakwang!!
That is a real ‘disaster’.
A disaster caused by natural disaster.
Compared to Hercules’ recent blunder, the current situation in Seoul was nothing more than a bolt from the blue.
And the reason why the catastrophe is happening.
[Cornucopia will never be returned!!]
Cornucopia, the horn of plenty.
In order to get information about Hades, I had to return Cornucopia.
But Hercules had already had a taste.
A protein bar with a perfect nutritional balance.
This results in explosively bulked up muscles.
It was a great treasure for Hercules, who lived for muscles and was crazy about muscles.
Should we return that Cornucopia?
‘Even I would throw a tantrum.’
Hercules’s antics were completely understandable.
No, it was fortunate that it ended at the level of a slap in the face.
Of course, the level was catastrophic, but whatever.
“It was mine anyway. I was just using it for a while because Hercules couldn’t cross over to my dimension.”
[But there’s no need to return it!]
Kwakwakwakwakwang!
There was no communication.
Hercules had become a complete child.
No, even a child’s tantrum wouldn’t be to that extent.
[This is not allowed! This is not allowed! You can never give it back! If you give this back, I’m going to make you do some seriously intense pressure workouts, so you better be prepared!]
Hercules was stubborn.
They even used threats that weren’t threats.
Hercules, already accustomed to protein bars.
It’s a cheap analogy, but it’s like a man watching a dirty video for the first time.
There are people who have never done it, but there is no one who has done it only once.
Cornucopia was to Hercules as it was to men.
Of course, Hercules wouldn’t do that either, saying it’s aerobic.
…anyway.
“If you keep acting like that, I won’t give you any more GodTube video content in the future.”
[Do whatever you feel like!]
Boom! Boom!
Hercules turned out to be tougher than expected.
At least I knew how to stop.
Is it true that Cornucopia’s protein bars are more valuable than the video content on GotTube?
There really was no way around this.
He could not take Cornucopia away from Hercules.
But whatever.
“Okay, then.”
Stop.
Siwoo hung up the video call without even thinking about it.
“Clumsy negotiations won’t work.”
Because Siwoo saw through Hercules’ intentions.
Video content from Godtube and Cornucopia.
Judging from his appearance just now, Hercules was more fond of Cornucopia.
But Siwoo knew that wasn’t true.
That would be the case, since Hercules had originally intended to give Cornucopia to Siu.
It could be because I couldn’t come to the dimension where Siwoo was anyway.
But if that were the case, I wouldn’t have even brought it up.
He probably would have been using Cornucopia secretly, without even mentioning its existence.
However, Hercules made known the existence of Cornucopia.
That means.
“The smoke has increased a lot.”
Hercules is showing his guts now.
A guts that almost fooled Siwoo.
But is it because of the insight (S+) that reached 100% proficiency?
Hercules’ intentions were in the palm of Siu’s hand.
“The question is when will I hear from you?”
It was clear that Hercules would probably put up a fight in his own way─.
Tiring!
“…If this was going to happen, why did you hold out?”
Siwoo was at a loss.
Just as I was about to press the accept button.
“Hades’ information isn’t particularly urgent.”
Come to think of it, there wasn’t a time limit.
Above all, the core of the information is Adonis.
Hades’ answer was the kind that could be obtained at any time.
“hmm….”
Siwoo was lost in thought for a moment.
Lately, I’ve been feeling like Hercules has been treating Siu too roughly.
Now the number of subscribers to the channel has increased a lot.
“I’ll definitely come to my senses when I see the number of subscribers drop significantly.”
I felt like this was an opportunity to reestablish discipline.
After much thought, Siwoo pressed the call rejection button.
Then ding ding!
A word came back from Hercules immediately.
This time, Siwoo pressed the reject button without hesitation.
And then ring again!
Siwoo didn’t even press refuse this time.
I just put my smartphone in my subspace pocket.
“I just have to hold on until I get discharged.”
Siwoo shrugged and moved away.
Absolutely not, I had no intention of flinching at the threat of a stricter subscription.
* * *
The special ward I returned to was quiet.
So, Baek Seon-je’s voice saying, ‘You, are you here?’ was not heard.
When I checked, I found out that Baek Seon-je was away.
You’re not feeling well, so where are you wandering around like that?
“Isn’t that what I should be saying?”
Siwoo chuckled and laughed.
And even though he said that, Baek Seon-je had a mountain of work to do.
Now, the aftermath of the disaster in Seoul has not yet been resolved.
The position of inspector general did not allow him to just lie idle in his bedroom.
Siwoo shook his head once and sat down on the bed.
At the same time, ding!
I heard the smartphone notification sound from inside my arms.
Although he hadn’t confirmed it yet, Siwoo could tell that it was a notification sound from a real smartphone.
Because there was no way that GodTube’s smartphone notification sound would ring.
Because GodTube’s smartphone was now in his subspace pocket.
I took out my smartphone from my pocket and, as expected, it was a notification from my real smartphone.
Siwoo touched the screen to check the contents.
Oppa, how are you now? Are you feeling okay? Have you eaten?
11:47 am
A message from Seo-ah.
Although the content was only in text, Seo-ah’s voice automatically played in my head.
Even though he heard the news that he was safe, he seemed worried.
Siwoo moved his fingers to reply.
Knock, knock.
It’s okay. There’s no problem now. And there’s no food yet.
11:48 am
Then ding ding!
A knife-like blade came to mind from Seo-ah.
Then, should I make something delicious and go visit my brother while he’s sick?
11:48 am
It seems like the purpose from the beginning was to visit the sick.
Siwoo wrote a reply again.
Okay. There are so many reporters and YouTubers here right now. You wouldn’t be able to come even if you wanted to. Didn’t you say there were already people lined up in front of your house?
11:48 am
The world’s first S+-class hunter.
As Siwoo became famous, interest in Seoah naturally skyrocketed.
That’s true, but… .
11:48 am
They’ll ask you all sorts of things, like interviews and surveys. It’s hard on you, Seo-ah, since you’re not feeling well.
11:48 am
If that’s the case, then it’s okay! It doesn’t bother me at all!
11:49 am
That’s because you haven’t experienced it. I’m fine, so I’m studying at home. The GED exam is just around the corner.
11:49 am
Due to this incident, the exam has been postponed by a month.
11:49 am
Well, Seoul’s infrastructure was completely destroyed, so there was no place to take tests or anything.
However, since other areas were fine, it didn’t seem to be delayed much.
And is that test important? My brother is much, much, much more important.
11:50 am
Anyone who looked at it could see that it was a reply that showed a dislike of studying.
This is a special room, so the food is good. Tell that to other people too, so they don’t have to come here.
11:50 am
This time, Seo-ah’s reply did not come right away.
After some time had passed.
…okay.
11:50 am
A sullen reply came.
It was just a simple text, but for some reason, Seo-ah’s face with her mouth pursed came to mind.
Siwoo smiled without realizing it and put his smartphone away.
“Fortunately, Seo-ah seems to be really okay.”
It was a disaster for Seoul, but Seo-ah seemed okay.
Only then was Siwoo able to completely let go of his worries about Seoah.
“Let’s see… then.”
Siwoo calmly thought about the things he had to sort out.
“You can leave information related to GodTube to Adonis.”
To do that, you had to subscribe to Cleopatra’s channel.
Crazy subscription fees of up to 64 billion won per month.
It was an amount that desperately needed to be compressed through a subscription.
However, as of now, it is not possible to subscribe to the actual subscription.
Now was the time to maintain Hercules’ discipline.
Above all, even if I subscribed to the real-time subscription right now, it wouldn’t have much meaning.
Because subscribing to the real pressure wasn’t something that could be done all at once.
In short, in some way, we had to pay subscription fees amounting to 64 billion.
“…A promise is a promise.”
Siwoo took out the smartphone he had put away.
“How much do I have now?”
And check your account balance.
[Account Balance] – 34,552,452₩
You can check your remaining balance─.
“huh?”
The moment I saw it, I thought I was seeing the wrong screen.
But even though I rubbed my eyes and looked straight ahead, the numbers on the screen did not change.
“34 million won?”
34 million won.
It wasn’t that small of an amount.
But to Siwoo, it was an absurdly small amount.
So, it was ridiculously small to afford the subscription fee for GodTube.
“Why is this all I have…?”
Siwoo calmly looked back on the past.
first.
And the 120 billion won paid to Han Chae-rin.
“I used that to subscribe to Thor and the Blue Dragon channel.”
This was understandable.
But even taking that into account, Siwoo has a fixed income─.
“…There has been no profit at all during this time.”
Come to think of it, I haven’t had any income recently.
So even before this disaster in Seoul, Siwoo had no income.
That’s understandable, since he died while trying to subscribe to the real-time subscription service.
They weren’t even manufacturing or delivering the equipment.
It couldn’t be made in the first place.
Because there was no supply of materials at all.
The dungeon itself is destroyed by the pressure subscription, so what kind of materials are they?
They were only in a hurry to change the dungeon.
Although there was some money from Han Chae-rin’s private tutoring and YouTube, it wasn’t enough.
Maybe that 34 million won is the remaining amount.
Naturally, that wouldn’t be enough to cover the insane membership fees of GodTube.
I couldn’t help but pay an absurd amount of money every month for my subscription to Thor and the Blue Dragon channel.
Of course it was every month.
So, it was an amount that was withdrawn on a monthly basis.
But what if we add the time that Siwoo was unconscious?
First of all, the balance is only 34 million won.
And while I was passed out, quite a bit of time had passed.
“Wait a minute, then surely…?”
Siwoo hurriedly put his hand into his subspace pocket.
I found GotTube’s smartphone and checked the notification window.
The majority of the confirmed notifications were missed notifications from Hercules.
But just one of those hundreds of notification windows.
“what?”
Siwoo felt his heart sink.
