1 C1 The Awakening From Today

Dungeon & Fantasy Online.(D&F)

It's been over six years since I was abbreviated as D&F.

I started right away at the age of 23, when I quit the professional game team trainee.

It was fun to play every minute and second because it was the worldview and game method I wanted.

In fact, D&F wasn't a popular game.

In terms of popularity, is it flat?

People who play some games have heard the name about once.

It is a game of just that degree of awareness.

As a result, there were not many actual users, and as time passed, it became a game of deceased characters.

Like many games that have disappeared behind the scenes of history, D&F's service quality began to decline as the number of users began to decline.

Since no profits were generated, there would have been no way for a game company to use their hands.

Today was a sad day.

This is because it was the day that D&F, who has enjoyed 6 years, ends its service at midnight.

D&F, a game I enjoyed without skipping a day for a long time.

I was like a living D&F history. Like D&F's encyclopedia.

The obsession with the game produced a phenomenal achievement of achieving the highest level of all characters.

Skill list and combinations by job?

I finished memorizing it.

I am the one who cleared the same content and the same boss monster dozens of times by returning to another class.

I probably don't know, but I can be confident that I've played more than a D&F developer.

Indeed, in D&F's view of the world, the end has come.

A game that always had a hard time working as a salesperson, but always rewarded me with joy after work.

But today was the end of service.

So, I was looking at the first character of my life, reminiscing about the memories of the day I first played D&F with a sad heart.

And with my eyes closed, I felt the thrilling initials of the day I was doing D&F for the first time.

Tick. Tick.

time goes by.

[Twelve o'clock!]

I heard a cell phone notification sound.

It's already midnight.

"Sigh. It's really over now. My D&F life is over... … It's sad, really."

In this way, D&F's service ended.

In my depressed heart, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen.

I couldn't even do a mouse click.

As soon as I clicked on something, the message'The server has been shut down' seemed to pop up.

I was sad.

Even though I knew it was a stupid idea, I was staring at my character without even touching the computer.

too bad.

'How many job unions you haven't tried yet!'

Now my game life is completely over.

All I have been given to me is the fact that I have to open my eyes and go to work at seven o'clock like a wheel.

You can't enjoy D&F anymore even after you get off work, so you'll have to stay up all night while working through the backlog of work.

"Ha, damn it. Damn work."

The curse came out.

My work life wasn't fun at all.

It's just a repetition of a beggar-like routine.

Is it so?

"It would be great if I could use my D&F abilities in reality!"

Without knowing, my heart came out with words.

Actually, I wasn't thinking of doing it once or twice.

If possible, you'll be a really great ability.

Isn't 2020 the greatest prosperity that the awakenings have also recognized?

I also wanted to be an awakener.

It is also an awakener who uses D&F's abilities to the fullest!

Then, you can escape from the life of a small citizen who is penniless with a dirt spoon like now.

It's a great win because I can bring the knowledge I know quickly to reality!

sure… … It's a vain dream.

If I could dream and hope and become an awakener, I would have done it right away.

Has there been no news in 20 years?

My situation became desperate for no reason.

How will the abilities in the game become reality?

This is likely to happen only in novels or movies.

"I am old too. My delusions have increased. Ugh."

With a laughter mixed with self-help, he cleared the delusion.

And went to the bathroom.

I really didn't want to fall asleep early today.

Looking back on the past 6 years, I wanted to organize my memories with D&F.

So, did you urinate coolly and wash your face eagerly?

* * *

"What is this?"

Dohyuk stood looking in the mirror for a long time.

Living in a semi-basement studio in the 6th year.

Isn't a message suddenly appearing in the mirror where you should see the familiar bathroom you always see?

[You are awakened.]

[Please make every effort to understand and adapt to all systems provided.]

[Auto calibration is performed.]

[Everything is adjusted to the state it was in when the character was level 1.]

A series of concise messages.

But the moment you see it.

My heart trembled like crazy.

'Are you awakening?'

Ugh- Ugh-.

Poop. Poop.

In case I wanted to, I even applied a lot of foam cleanser and washed my face again.

I'm so sleepy that I want to see something in vain.

I've been overworked recently.

But when I looked back in the mirror, the new message was changed to the following content.

[User'Park Do-hyuk' has become an awakener by this time.]

[For smooth adaptation to the system, all experiences that can be helpful to the user'Park Do-hyuk' are injected.]

[You may temporarily fall into a severe headache or a brief fainting condition.]

"Uh, what is this? Ugh! Ugh! Oh, I think my head will burst!"

A headache began for Dohyuk without even having time to think about the contents of the message.

In an instant, a lot of knowledge squeezes into my head.

Most of them, or even all of them, are the right knowledge.

'D&F Online?'

It was information about the game Dohyuk was enjoying.

Everything from the D&F world view that I have enjoyed with a computer monitor and mouse so far naturally permeated my mind as if an encyclopedia was injected.

Not only that, but experience was also accumulated at the same time.

All the experiences of wielding swords, casting magic, and wielding axes on the battlefield in D&F were recognized by the body.

As if it has been like that for a long time.

He felt confident that if he gave him his sword right now, he would be able to perform the same movements as the character he was nurturing in D&F.

"I wake up… … I did it."

I really didn't even think about it.

It was just an unexpected awakening of the day when I lamented my sad heart!

Dohyuk became an awakener like that.

* * *

Some time passed.

I woke up again.

"I awakened… … town!"

The cheers that had risen to the bottom of the chin were blocked with both hands.

And he held his breath and hailed.

Perhaps it was a mansera in silence, and the reflection of me in the mirror was very ridiculous.

Awakening! To be an awakener!

That is certainly a great blessing.

Because the placenta is the person who cannot awaken even if he wishes his whole life.

But I don't yet know what my abilities are.

This is because there were quite a few cases of awakening who only awakened with physical abilities or skills that were inferior to ordinary people.

It means that nothing gets better than the original.

Such awakeners are not even treated as awakeners.

Awakener License?

I can't even dream.

This is because registration is not possible because it does not meet the physical conditions set by the Awakening Office.

Even if you wake up, it becomes something you didn't do.

Anyway, I carefully scrolled down the message window slowly.

No, I thought I was getting off.

Then, just thinking about it, the screen of the message window went down, and new content appeared, not the previous comment.

[User'Park Dohyuk' can use the rules and abilities of'D&F'.]

"Wow!"

I burst into elasticity.

D&F rules and abilities follow me as it is?

Even if I have devoted my entire life in my 20s, is it not an exaggeration to say that memories and experiences in the game become my ability to awaken?

Even if I simply thought about it, it was a huge strength.

This is because I can use my D&F knowledge, which I know better than anyone else in the world, as an awakening ability.

"Ah, so before!"

I understood the reason for the headache.

then.

Numerous memories and experiences were injected.

It was all about D&F.

No matter how much you try to shake it off, the intentional injection by some absolute force that is forcibly carried out.

I could realize.

Transcendental beings known to have passed on to humans that it is an awakening system.

That is, it is a part of Deus' adaptation program, also called God.

[User'Park Do-hyuk' was applied with a system that follows the rules and capabilities of D&F, and the process of leveling up also follows the rules of D&F.]

"Are you an awakening system? Or is it Deus?"

Asked questions that may not have an answer.

About Deus, I, who was a non-awakened, heard well.

Twenty years ago, so 2000.

A 1km tall spire that suddenly appeared in the capitals of each country.

When you get inside and reach the top.

He said that he could talk with Deus, a transcendental being, in an empty space with nothing.

Access to the spire is now strictly controlled under the state's control.

[User'Park Do-hyuk' hopes that he will take time to ponder and recognize his special and noble ability.]

The message did not answer my question.

Instead, he gave advice.

But I have one more question.

Asked the system.

"Why folding? Why did you choose me?"

That was the most curious.

The awakenings had spoken together.

System, that is, Deus chose himself and awakened.

So why did you choose me?

I wondered if the answer would come back kindly.

I didn't expect much.

[User'Park Do-hyuk' is a player who understands D&F more fully than anyone else in the world and has played for a long time.

There was no other eligible person except the user "Park Do-hyuk". User'Park Do-hyuk' was the only user who met the conditions.]

"It was the only one… … So, me."

I was very impressed.

It feels like being rewarded for six years?

What I can say with confidence is that over the past six years, I've been insanely addicted to D&F.

Especially a year ago.

So, 5 years before I got a job, I was only doing D&F except for the time to eat.

In addition, although there is no fame until the age of 23, the career of a pro gamer trainee who has been active steadily has helped a lot in adapting to the game.

My game life that no one admitted!

I was so happy that I felt that the transcendent existence of Deus recognized it as a great and meaningful value.

[User'Park Do-hyuk' needs to quickly adapt to the system. You have to think about the number of cases in which you will be able to exercise your abilities.]

At that time, a system message drew attention.

I also nodded.

There is a lot to adjust to just like it.

'Yes, that's right. I awakened. Then it is very important to think about what kind of ability I have and how to use this ability.'

It felt like I was excited about the advice.

The question of who Deus is and what the Awakening System is is a later question.

In fact, just because you try to know it doesn't mean you get an answer.

The key is ability.

The ability I can use.

There, my value as an awakener is also determined.

'If D&F's rules, capabilities, and systems awakened and followed me as they were... … If it was adjusted to the state it was in when it was level 1, it would be the same as it was when the character was created.'

I immediately recalled the previous memory.

Just before the end of service.

Six years ago, I was seeing the first character I made at D&F.

The first character I loved the most was also. Because it was a character that I created after much effort and a lot of thought.

First you need to see my information.

Can you think of the stats window?

I tried to apply the knowledge I heard as a guiding match.

"Five!"

Then the stat window really popped up.
