Chapter 1

Mr. Linzer!
Mr. Linzer, who wears items more expensive than a large car, pays for potions more expensive than most college tuitions, and is even willing to go through real-life PK for his pride.
“It was all pointless.”
If someone asked her about her Lean Online days, Lee Ji-won wanted to punch the person who uttered the word ‘Lean’ in the face.
Even though it has been more than two years, the resentment has not been resolved.
No, it could not be resolved even after decades.
Because he never dreamed that he would have to leave Lin Online, his favorite place in the world, after being stabbed in the back by the people he trusted the most!
Ultimately, money was the issue.
X was the strongest monarch in Lin Online history.
There would be no one who would not be tempted by the enormous income he was earning. Lee Ji-won, who didn’t know anything about the world at that time, was the perfect prey.
“You have been forcibly expelled from the guild.”
A cruel message appears in the chat window.
Characters with familiar IDs show off their skills.
The moment your monitor turns gray.
Lee Ji-won made a promise.
I won’t trust anyone.
From now on, I will do everything myself.
I will eat it all by myself and get to the top again!
But Jiwon Lee had overlooked one fact.
“It was a strategy that did not suit my age.”
As long as the time passed peacefully as the reigning monarch.
finger.
So-called physical deterioration rapidly.
It was natural that I couldn’t even dream of flashy controls like when I was green. Lee Ji-won was not only confident in her abilities, but even arrogant, so her disappointment in herself was even greater.
After much agony, Jiwon Lee finally made a bitter decision.
If I don’t reach the top, I will give up without any regrets!
Jiwon Lee disposed of his account that way.
It was to avoid reversing the decision.
X, the fallen Lin Online’s strongest monarch.
Lee Ji-won’s account, which became a hot topic, went through repeated auctions and was eventually sold for 150 million won in cash.
The winning bid was quite high even though the account was unable to play properly due to the kill order issued by the gnashing rankers.
150 million won.
Lee Ji-won bought the future with that money.
To put it bluntly, it means that I opened a chicken restaurant.
Sizzle!
‘If only I was three years younger. When I was 24, I was really flying around… No, I wasn’t sharing the income I earned while I was a monarch like a fool…’ The
crispy fried chicken looked disgusting today.
Cheek!
When the free business hours ended, Lee Ji-won took a can of beer out of the refrigerator and turned on the TV.
-you’re right! Starting tomorrow. Fate, which you have been so eagerly anticipating, is now officially launched. You guys have been waiting so long!
“Yeah, I didn’t wait.”
Whether or not the show opens.
It was of no interest to Lee Ji-won.
Lee Ji-won, who drank beer, muttered bluntly.
“Lin Online, Fate, etc. “If I were just three years younger… let’s not say it’s okay.”
The fishy smell of oil that permeated my body reminded me of reality.
The splendid monarch of Lin.
There is no more X.
Lee Ji-won was just an ordinary chicken restaurant owner. Lee Ji-won, feeling a little nervous, picked up the remote control to change the channel.
-It is said that famous game users are also showing considerable interest in the opening of Fate. In particular, I heard that Lin Online’s War Machine guild expressed their determination very explicitly in this interview with reporters?
“…what? War Machine?”
The hand holding the remote control stopped.
Lee Ji-won got angry and glared at the screen.
Because he’s only good at games but not good at social life.
The bastards who rationalized their betrayal and took everything from themselves.
The reporter, whether he knew the people or not, started reciting the nicknames of those bastards.
-Even Kaimus Dazel Resorcerer! Aren’t they really named users that Korean gamers can’t help but know? But all these named users declared that they would challenge Fate’s supremacy!
‘Hegemony? Guys like you are hegemony?’
Lee Ji-won gritted his teeth.
The awful smell of oil made me even more angry.
In my mind, I wanted to jump into a game like Fate or something right away.
I wanted to crush those arrogant faces with my skills.
“…But it’s already been two years since you stopped playing games, right?”
Probably not.
Gamer Lee Ji-won compromised with society.
The moment you leave Lean Online.
The moment when X is sold to someone else.
I ignored the gamer’s boiling soul. It was because of his high pride that he had no reason to play the game if he couldn’t get to the top.
-The infinite content and numerous users make me itchy! So, team leader, where can I purchase the capsule diver that is essential to enjoy Fate?
“?”
Jiwon Lee raised her head at the announcer’s voice.
-Capsule Diver can be purchased from the official website. If you are having difficulty using the Internet, please call Meiji and we will gladly provide guidance.
“Capsule diver?”
Lee Ji-won’s eyes narrowed.
Aren’t you playing a game called Fate on a computer?
Out of curiosity, Jiwon Lee took out his cell phone and searched.
As soon as I searched for Fate, millions of documents came to mind. Considering that the game hadn’t even been released yet, it was incredibly popular.
Lee Ji-won, who was quietly looking at her cell phone, widened her eyes.
“Virtual reality game? “Something like that has already come out?”
Zero multitasking ability.
Lee Ji-won was slow to hear news about the world.
When he was absorbed in something, he couldn’t look anywhere else.
During Mr. Linzer’s days, he played games all day long.
Now that I am the owner, I fry chicken all day.
There was no time to worry about anything else.
“This is an era where we play games using brain waves. “The world is so nice…”
Lee Ji-won, who was laughing out loud, stopped talking.
Play games using brain waves while lying down in a capsule diver.
This meant that the player’s capabilities could be freely displayed without ‘physical’ restrictions. What he meant was that he, who had already stiffened his fingers, was also given a chance.
Jiwon Lee’s competitive spirit burned deep in his heart.
The gamer’s blood began to boil again.
My passion for the game was ignited.
“Fate’s supremacy? Okay, just run as wild as you want. Monarchs and trash. “It will clearly remind you once again of the difference in rank.”
*
I will rise to the top once again in the virtual reality game Fate.
I will remind these scumbags of the difference in class.
Lee Ji-won’s grand plan has already suffered a setback.
“I can’t believe this ridiculously expensive game console is already sold out.”
Capsule divers are sold out due to an explosion of orders.
Time passed without even thinking about it.
We had to wait at least four weeks for capsule divers to be restocked in Korea. Jiwon Lee was at least a month behind users who had pre-ordered Capsule Diver.
‘Initial capital is important. You have to fry the chicken thoroughly now to get ahead of others. Each chicken becomes an item and level!’
But Lee Ji-won did not waste time.
I fried chicken as usual and devoted my spare time to gathering information, even sleeping less. The information revealed by Fate beta testers was considerable.
‘It’s natural not to disclose important information. Because my country will be like that too. You should never blindly trust something.’
Monsters that drop famous hunting grounds and valuable items.
And there is never an abundance of quests that give clear rewards. That’s the same in any game. Therefore, we had to consider beta testers leaking false information to monopolize.
Ignore what you have to skip and make sure you remember what you have to remember.
Jiwon Lee’s month passed quickly.
“Installation is complete. Don’t forget to activate the Smart Bio feature when playing for more than 24 hours. Please refrain from using it when you are not feeling well. If you look at the back here, you can see the input hole, right? In the inlet….”
“Bio Gel. I will fill it up every week. And since I have already applied for automatic bank transfer for the Fate account usage fee, you can skip the instructions.”
“You know very well. Then, I hope you have a pleasant Fate trip.”
at las!
As soon as the installer walked out the door, Jiwon Lee laid down on the capsule diver. When the capsule diver was activated, the sound of a fan could be heard.
‘We must adapt perfectly to virtual reality.’
Access to the game after 2 years.
I tried to remain calm, but my heartbeat accelerated with excitement.
Slur.
As soon as my eyes closed, a refreshing breeze touched my skin.
“…crazy.”
Wide sky!
A green meadow with no end in sight!
Lee Ji-won, who was standing there, was astonished.
I had no idea that virtual reality could be this realistic.
At this level, you can believe it even if it is just reality.
“No, this is not the time to be like this.”
One miserable downfall is enough.
I promised myself that I would stand at the top once again.
I decided never to come down from the top.
There was no time to enjoy the scenery.
A sense of sadness appeared on Lee Ji-won’s face as she pursed her lips.
《Characters are created using user body scan data.》
“Changes in appearance are omitted.”
The fate system supported slight changes in appearance.
“After all, men are capable.”
However, Lee Ji-won does not usually apply lotion properly. There was no way he would be interested in the character’s appearance. Thanks to this, the creation was completed in one go.
《Character creation complete! Please decide on a nickname.》
There was no need to worry about the nickname.
“X.”
The corners of Lee Ji-won’s mouth, no, X’s, went up.
It was the beginning of a new legend.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
