Chapter 1. Self-introduction

『Strategy(前略).

When Nam Chun-hui looked back at his life, it was a straight line, and if he took alcohol as an example, it would be colorless and odorless. Born as a son of a millionaire and living a smooth life, hardships and suffering were only unfamiliar words. However, it was not all smooth because he had a history of being kidnapped by local rebels and rescued a decade ago.

And the rescue process was special.

The place where he was kidnapped was flat, but when the rescue team arrived there, it became a basin. It was badly dented as if a divine general(神將) of the heaven had crushed it with a huge fist.

Nam Chun-hui was found in the center.

People said heaven had helped him.

Perhaps the optimistic nature of Nam Chun-hui has been since then.

Heaven helped him. Heaven saved him.

So he managed to get through the first hurdle of his life.

He did not know how he was rescued, but it’s important that he was alive.

After that day, Nam Chun-hui has had a life that was not different from before he was kidnapped.

But he had a secret.

A secret he could not tell.

There was a long bar at the top of his vision.

He could see it not only when he opened his eyes, but also when he closed them.

The bar, which had been transparent ten years ago, has become black as the years passed, and the tinting from left to right seemed to be something going on.

On top of that, there was a strange inscription on the long bar. Now, with the number 84 on the bar, there was a strange pattern called "Install" … 』

“Whew! Damn it! Who believes this?”

Nam Chun-hui wrote a curly letter and threw a brush.

If he put in an assignment like this, he would only hear, "You are a crazy guy."

"From the beginning, who's going to write this assignment when they enter an academy? They pay a modest donation before entering it.”

The literary teacher of the academy he wanted to enter was a trainee of Buddhism affiliation, so he emphasized contemplation through self-reflection and meditation.

The result was today’s assignment with the topic, "Look at yourself from a third-person perspective and evaluate yourself."

In other words, it was the point of the assignment to introduce himself to others.

Yeah, it’s a self-introduction.

"Our family is rich. I'm not going to take the Imperial Examination(科擧), and I'm not looking for a job, but do I have to go to the academy?"

Nam Chun-hui picked up the brush again, grumbling. In any case, he could not be admitted without handing in his assignment. And if he remained unadmitted and being out of work, his life would not be well off.

'Well, he has a strong temper, so he would just teach children after violating the Buddhist commandments.'

Blaming the innocent teacher, he took out a new piece of paper.

'I’ll have to submit a roughly false statement.'

The tip of the writing brush touched a blank sheet of paper.

However, Nam Chun-hui, could not draw down the brush.

“Huh?”

In no time, 84 was changed to 85.

But the moment he blinked, it was changed to 86. And the numbers rose as fast as if someone were chasing them.

87, 88, 89, 90…

"Haw!"

Nam Chun-hui made his eyes glare.

At that moment, the number that soared to 99 was changed to 100, and the bar that had become completely black was scattered in powder.

At the same time, a strange echo sounded in his head.

"Oh my god! Gee! What are you? Get out of my head now. You bitch!"
