Chapter 2 Zero Code, 10 years back. =========================================================================

When I felt the light that had been patting my eyelids constantly was getting weaker, I opened my eyes gently, which had been closing. The lights that filled the entire room were fading away, leaving only a slight glow. When I blinked once or twice, the blurry view gradually became the focus. Soon as I recovered to the point where I could judge things, I calmly began to look around.

It’s different.

I was just closing my eyes for a while, but a lot had changed. The knife in his right hand and the equipment he was wearing were all gone. As I lowered my eyes from my empty hands, I saw a military uniform with a stain on it. And as soon as I saw the buoy attached to my left chest, I stopped breathing for a moment. It was then.

“Check for Code Name Zero. Complete. Zero code activation. We confirmed normal operation. User Kim Soo-hyun, congratulations.”

When I raised my head with a familiar voice, I could see Seraph still sitting on the altar looking at me. And at that moment, I was a little frowned upon. Her physical condition was severe enough to show that she was not normal at first glance.

“Why do you think so?”

The beautifully fluttering white wings were dimmed beyond sight, and the entire body was translucent, reflecting the back without filtration. Only the impolite face remained the same as before.

Keeping quiet, Seraf tilted his head and said.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve received your worried eyes. But that’s all right. It is Thursday, December 27, 2011 Earth time. At your request, Kim Soo-hyun of Earth has returned to the time when he first entered the summoning room. Again, the user’s request has been successfully processed and completed.”

“Yes…. I see. So Seraf, are you back with me?”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Seraf shook his head slowly from side to side.

“I can’t tell you exactly, but I’ll say no for now. I asked Zero Code for deterrence for a very short time because there was something left to explain to the user Kim Soo-hyun. The Zero Code accepted my request, fortunately, if it considered my opinion valid.”

“Do you have anything to explain?”

“Yes, I am.”

Still frowning around his eyes, Seraf replied with a rather gentle smile. It was the first angel smile I’ve seen in a decade on Hall Plain. The sudden but refreshing feeling of approach made me unwind my frown.

The awkward atmosphere subsided for a while. But it wasn’t me who opened the door first, it was Seraf. She swept her silvery white hair behind her ears, half-closed her eyes and quietly opened her mouth.

“I remember the day when user Kim Soo-hyun was first summoned to Hallplane. Do you remember the first thing you said when you saw me?”

“I don’t know.”

You can’t remember that. I don’t know what kind of ghost you’re trying to say, but I decided to listen to it silently. Seraf has always been a “helper” person, at least in terms of giving adequate advice.

“Hey, where are we? “Huh? You, who are you?”

“Oh, by the way, stuttering? You remember everything.”

“Hu-hoo. Not just this isn’t it. Other than that….”

I’m fired!

At that moment, there was a sound of space tearing apart, and Seraf’s whole body, which was continuing a ridiculous story, was greatly twisted. It looked like a miscellaneous signal when a poor connection was turned on.

“Ugh!”

Twist, then go back to normal. Seraf groaned in pain. The more repeated the phenomenon, the more translucent it was. Her appearance seems so unfamiliar. Once you close and open your eyes, you will have the original calm attitude, but now Seraph in front of you was looking dangerous like a lantern in front of the wind.

As the noise died down in time, Seraph, who managed to recover, showed a bitter look.

“I don’t think it’s going to be acceptable to Zero Code. But we’ve been together for 10 years…I don’t even allow time to share my feelings of parting.”

I can’t get used to it.

In the past, I would have gone straight to the point rather than saying that. As Seraph said, angels are always a reasonable race. I couldn’t get used to seeing him suddenly change after seeing his consistent attitude for 10 years.

“Yes, then I’ll explain it quickly and finish it.”

Eventually, I snapped back curtly. Seraf stared at me with sad-looking eyes and then continued with a short sigh.

“User Kim Soo-hyun has consumed very little GP since the middle of the game. I’m going to give you some perks to start over with some of the points you’ve earned.”

“Huh? The perks?”

“Of course, I’ll leave the rest of the GP.”

“Because it’s a privilege… I don’t know what it is, but you treat me as much as you’ve seen it once. I’m so grateful for this that I’m crying.”

It was a tone full of sarcasm, but Seraf shook his head slightly as if it was not.

“I’d appreciate it if you thought it was a favor rather than a treatment. All angels, including me, fully understand, sympathize with and sympathize with your feelings.”

“Pity? Hahaha….”

“I apologize if the word “sympathy” sounded offensive. I didn’t mean to demean you. However, at least in the hallplane, angels are responsible for helping users. Have I ever given any advice to the user Kim Soo-hyun that would sound harmful? Think about it carefully. I’ll leave it entirely up to the user Kim Soo-hyun to accept this favor or let it go.”

He said he would leave it entirely to me, but Seraf was not giving him any room to refute, as if he were trying to somehow make him receive a “privilege.” What’s more, I couldn’t think of anything to say even though I tried to push it further here, so I nodded in a shudder mood.

“It’s a great choice. I have no doubt that this choice will make what Kim Soo-hyun is trying to accomplish easier.”

As soon as he agreed, Seraf smiled with a more relieved look. And now almost invisible, the faint wings flapped vigorously once. Soon the distance between her and me decreased rapidly, and soon I felt a soft touch over my head. Gently raised his eyes, Seraph continued in a relaxed voice.

“I don’t want to, but I hope you’ll hang in there. We don’t have much time left. I will enter and deliver the contents directly into my head.”

At the end of Seraf’s words, there was a flashing shock on the top of her head. It doesn’t hurt. Rather curiously, the information Seraf was clearly coming into his head. With my eyes closed, I calmly savored the information she gave me.

1. User Kim Soo-hyun will be given a special privilege regarding the capability information he originally had. First, you can ‘load’ the user information you achieved in the first round. Second, randomly select four of the six basic capability information and raise the number. The degree of increase in the number is also determined at random.

2. Grant perks on the class. You can determine the class in advance before entering the rite of passage. You can select all classes wrapped in secrets, including Rare and Secret classes, as well as generic classes.

3. Grant special and potential capabilities perks. Users will generally have one special ability slot and four potential slots, but we will open another potential slot for Kim Soo-hyun. It also opens up both special and potential capabilities, including hidden capabilities, and allows you to choose what you want.

And the other way, you can open up a slot called ‘unique ability’. A unique ability is a capability that is above a special ability. If you give up your own ability, you can choose all 5 special abilities as your own (open slots automatically include your own potential).

However, if you choose to have unique capabilities, you can consume one potential and choose only half of the remaining four slots as your desired capability (the remaining two are random).

4. Only once, you can undergo a physical modification procedure.

5. User Kim Soo-hyun can select one equipment he wants, and there is no restriction on the type. However, you cannot select EX grade equipment.

Information about the perks that fill your head without giving you a break. When I opened my eyes in a complicated mood, I could see Seraph, who had only a vague remnant. She still hasn’t removed her hands from the top of her head, but she doesn’t feel the same way anymore.

After barely finishing organizing the information entered, I burst into a quiet exclamation.

“This is….”

To be honest, I had never dreamed of granting such a privilege, so I was a little puzzled. If we could really start with these perks, it was a start like using character editing before starting the game.

Seraf said with a slight smile that he read my countenance.

“These perks were made with the points earned by the user Kim Soo-hyun. Of course, I won’t deny that some of my favors are mixed. But it doesn’t matter at all because all the angels agreed.”

“I like it, but you’ll be gone soon anyway. Wouldn’t it be restricted by balance?”

“That’s not true. And I felt a little bit of pride in the way Kim Soo-hyun spoke. I’ve been telling you this for 10 years. Never let your guard down under any circumstances.”

“I’ll be careful. No, but balance is the problem. Think about it. What would you think if a newcomer was given this privilege and started?”

“You don’t have to worry about that because Tanay can solve it. And balance is…Of course, I did think about balance, but….”

Ceraf, who stopped talking for a while, began to read my mind. Then, he carefully continued with a hesitant voice.

“Considering the potential of the original user, Kim Soo-hyun, we can say that this was balanced.”

Seraf’s words had many implications, but I could understand what they meant immediately. In fact, ‘potentiality’ is the most important key to determining ‘user information’.

I can understand the meaning of Seraf, but why does it taste bitter in my mouth?

No matter what anyone says, I’m the only user to reach the top of Hallplane. I do not intend to deny that it has risen based on numerous miracles and coincidences. But isn’t there an old saying like that, too. The strong one doesn’t survive. The strong one survives.

Speaking of general strength, I could confidently say that I was strong. Of course, I know that I can’t name the best and the best. But no matter how much….

“…Phew.”

“Don’t be arrogant. Don’t let your guard down.”

In the end, I think this is what Seraf wanted to say. I really felt embarrassed, as she said, if I had felt arrogant. I sighed briefly and nodded. Anyway, it wasn’t wrong. Although his pride was a little hurt, he immediately calmed down when he saw Seraph, who had faded almost beyond recognition.

“Now…, I’m really going to break up…”.Time….”

As Seraf said, it seems that the end has come. She was twisting around like a TV screen just before it broke down. It is now not even recovering to its original state. That, I just couldn’t help looking at it.

“Goodbye…” You…I’ve always wanted to…There is.”

I can’t hear Seraf more and more. Her presence is slowly fading away. Still, Seraf was telling me enough to be desperate.

“He’s….really..”

“Seraf, I’m a little sorry to say this until the end, but I can’t hear you.”

But if you can hear what I’m saying, Seraf’s face is filled with sadness. But there’s nothing I can do in this situation. It was a situation I hoped for in the first place, and it was also self-inflicted. But she didn’t give up.

“Boo….Dee….”

Pot!

The noise seemed to be getting worse, and suddenly the white light flashed with a pod. Glowing lights appeared around Seraf and disappeared in an instant. Now that it’s really coming to an end, she chews on her lips. And I thought I was putting strength in my eyes, and my lips slowly fell off.

“Please be happy…”.”

Softly….

With that being said, Seraph disappeared. No more noise occurs. But the last words she uttered with all her might have been heard. At the last minute, I felt like I was smiling at myself, but I couldn’t take a closer look at it because I was focusing on my words.

For a very short time, I stared at Seraf’s spot.
