I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me?

And he asked again.

“Why do you know it?”

“How much do you know?”

Before I could answer, he asked again.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Like a wave made of images, the wall crumbled and took on a new shape. advance It curved around me like an enormous hemisphere.

He fired question after question, but did not wait for any answers.

The wall collapsed.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Countless screens of different sizes showed versions of me from various angles.

Before I realized it, I was no longer tied to the chair and was standing on a circular platform.

Now it displayed me.

The hemisphere surrounding me no longer displayed the world.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Samra began walking along the edge of the circle, always keeping me at its center.

“I am Samra Man-Sang. abstract There should be nothing that I do not know.”

“Then why?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Even so, he continued observing me.

His holographic eyes remained fixed on me.

“Is your existence an unknown?”

“And yet, you are undeniably human.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Following his gaze, I saw countless versions of my past appear.

From the point where his gaze settled, the screens began changing like ripples spreading across the surface of water.

He tilted his head back.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Me in elementary school, middle school, and high school.

Me in the orphanage.

And.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I saw myself smiling while holding a championship trophy in one hand and wearing tape wrapped around my fingers on the other.

My mind went completely blank.

Me when I was a professional player.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

If I had really entered the game, into the Archive World, then the characters should not know anything about my past.

I could not understand what I was seeing.

They should have no way of knowing that I grew up in an orphanage.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then this place…?

Nor that I had been a professional player.

A new truth struck me.

Wait.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Was it the world where I had lived?

Wasn’t South Korea inside the game?

Wasn’t it the Archive World?

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

The emotional distance I had maintained by believing I was inside a video game vanished instantly.

My head hurt.

‘The real South Korea?’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Before I could process that truth, a system window appeared.

You have discovered a hidden truth.

◆ Epic Mission : Close 3 Trials within one month.

What…?

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

To achieve that, you believe you must close three Trials within one month.

You have realized that the world you believed was a game was something that had been secretly occurring within your reality.

As the System of planet Earth, you strive to stop the Trials.

*Trials currently closed (0/3)

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I took several deep breaths.

I shut my eyes tightly.

When I opened them again, the window was still there.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Close three Trials through True Endings within one month.

And if I failed, my limbs would be amputated?

The image of Park Seonggyeon’s head exploding spectacularly was still fresh in my memory.

It was difficult to take it as a joke.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

The punishment was losing my arms and legs.

As I tried to process that flood of impossible information, I could not help thinking.

And on top of that, the reward was ridiculous.

The reward was keeping them.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Final reward that will receive upon completing all Epic Missions.

‘So there is something.’

As if responding to my protest, another system window appeared.

‘That practically means there is no reward.’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

And I read them once more.

’s body will be restored to its most perfect state.

I waited for the next window to appear.

I read those words.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

At that instant, a faint tremor ran through my hand.

“……”

I forcibly restrained the direction my eyes wanted to move and clenched my fist to hide the trembling.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

And decided to ask what I needed to confirm first.

Samra tilted his head slightly as he observed me closely.

I managed to regain my composure.

“…What date is it today?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“March 8.”

“Yes.”

“Of the year 20XX?”

“And when did Captain Mo Haein enter HasFac?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

He was collecting data on my physical reactions.

“March 7.”

“Furthermore, it was the day Captain Mo Haein found Mr. abstract Han Goyo.”

Samra’s pupils repeatedly expanded and contracted like the aperture of a camera.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

The day I watched the Developer’s livestream was February 29.

That meant there was a seven-day gap.

This year was a leap year.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had absolutely no memory of where I had been or what I had done during that time.

“When did the Trials begin?”

Up until March 6.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Four years ago, on February 29.”

I started playing the Developer’s game two years ago.

It was around the time I retired as a professional player and became unemployed.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Mr. alien Han Goyo.”

I tried to gather all the scattered pieces that seemed connected.

After confirming that my mental state was not at its best, Samra changed his approach.

But I could not reach any conclusion.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

In their place appeared a pleasant outdoor café on a peaceful afternoon.

On an empty terrace table sat two cups of iced Americano along with several desserts.

All the screens surrounding me disappeared.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then he sat down across from me.

I stopped trying to organize the thoughts racing wildly through my head and took a large sip of the iced coffee.

Samra pulled out a chair and invited me to sit.

Even the containment uniform I was wearing had been replaced with casual clothes.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

But it was not real.

The sensation of the cold liquid sliding down my throat felt absurdly real.

Because this place was a virtual space created by Samra.

It was fake.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Perhaps because his essence was that of a Trial item, he possessed the ability to create virtual spaces similar to the Trials themselves.

Samra had been created from an android item obtained from a science-fiction-themed Trial.

Within this place, Samra was practically a god.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

And I was able to think a little more clearly.

He could create or erase anything at will.

I still did not understand why I had become a System.

In any case, thanks to the fake iced Americano, I regained some of my composure.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I was, rather, an ordinary person who prioritized his own survival.

I did not possess the qualities necessary to occupy a position as grand as the System of Earth.

There were countless people far more capable of bearing such responsibility or sacrifice.

I was not someone extraordinary.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I let out a brief sigh while waiting for the next system window.

‘Even now, it would be better if they chose someone else.’

But nothing appeared.

I did not understand why they had chosen me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I swallowed a long exhale.

‘Completing all the Epic Missions—that’s a problem for the distant future.’

And, as the ordinary person I was, I established the most important priority among my current circumstances.

To keep my arms and legs.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

After all, I did not even know how many missions I was going to be assigned.

From the moment I mistook this place for the world of Archive, I had reached a conclusion.

I had to go to the Trial Response Agency and meet Samra Man-Sang.

I looked at the android in front of me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Because if there was anyone I could tell everything that had happened to me and ask for cooperation, it was Samra Man-Sang.

He was a gigantic database containing everything related to the Trials.

Even at this very moment, the android was probably recording information about me in real time.

Created with technology from a world far more advanced than Earth, Samra gathered information that human beings were incapable of perceiving.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

His attitude gave the impression that he already considered himself the winner of the conversation.

“It seems you will need my help.”

The machine that was drinking coffee as if he were a person smiled slowly.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then I made him an offer.

Samra raised an eyebrow in surprise.

“No. absorb That won’t be necessary.”

But I did not need help.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Information about the Trials.”

“Yes. attic What do you intend to offer?”

“But I would like to make a deal. acoustic Are you interested?”

“Hm.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

At first, I considered offering exactly that.

“Someone who knows the Trials.”

“No.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

He could only obtain information through Compatibles.

But many Compatibles died inside the Trials.

Because what Samra needed most was information to expand his data on the Trials.

Samra could not enter them.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

And those Compatibles rarely tried to discover new routes or strategies.

Those who managed to come out unharmed were usually people who had cleared Trials whose methods were already known.

And even when they survived, many ended up infected.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Even by collecting information from other countries through hacking, there was still a fundamental lack of data related to the Trials.

That was why Samra had difficulty obtaining new data.

However, I did not feel comfortable sharing all the information I possessed.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘The development of HasFac was strange. avalanche The items were strange. agent Even the ending was different and appeared covered by those black blocks.’

I did not know how the situation would develop.

Besides, revealing all my cards from the start seemed like a bad idea.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“There is someone who knows the Trials.”

So I decided to offer something else.

I also needed to keep something of value for myself.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Someone who knows all of this.”

I meant the Developer.

“Hm.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

And why had he chosen me?

What kind of existence was he to have created a game about the Trials?

After coming this far, it was impossible not to be curious.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Because I remembered the last words he said to me.

He had probably selected me as a candidate to stop the Trials and trained me through Archive.

That was the most logical conclusion.

But I could not be certain.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I suppose now I’ll be the one watching Gunbam’s streams.”

If he had really chosen me to become the System of Earth.

“I’m looking forward to it. action I’ve been waiting for this for a very long time. amber A very, very, very long time.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

There was something about him that did not seem entirely sane.

The problem was that my memories were incomplete.

In any case, I needed to find him.

Well.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

But I was incapable of remembering his face.

I remembered perfectly the games he had given me.

I also remembered the conversations we had during his streams.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

As if someone had deliberately erased that part of my memories.

However, Samra could probably track him using the information I possessed.

Everything appeared covered by black darkness.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“And what do you wish to obtain in return, Mr. acid Han Goyo?”

“…Interesting.”

Samra leaned slightly forward.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

In addition to locating the Developer, I planned to use Samra to secure a stable position within the Trial Response Agency.

“Absolute cooperation.”

Samra’s opinion carried almost absolute influence within the organization.

If he supported me, I could get rid of the accusation of being a national disaster.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

And, of course, if there was any other way to take advantage of Samra’s assistance, I intended to do so without hesitation.

“I am incapable of performing actions that harm humanity.”

“Absolute cooperation…”

Samra left the sentence unfinished as he pointed a finger at the Trial Response Agency uniform he was wearing.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Even if you did not have a contract with the Trial Response Agency, you were always someone who wanted to save the world.”

“What exactly do you know?”

“I know.”

Samra had tried to save the world from the Trial he came from.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

For a moment, I considered asking if he could lower the brightness a little.

But before I could, he covered his eyes with his hand.

The lights already flickering within his eyes began shining even more intensely.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

When he lowered it, they had returned to normal.

‘Sir, I’m on humanity’s side too.’

“Now I am even more interested in the information you can provide, Mr. august Han Goyo. arena As long as it does not harm humanity, I accept the deal.”

Samra smiled.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

But I kept those thoughts to myself.

‘After all, I’m the System of Earth.’

I felt slightly offended by the way he treated me as though I might be some sort of villain.

Then I extended my hand.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Samra shook my hand and gave it a slight shake.

I had the feeling he was examining me thoroughly.

“Then I hope we can work well together.”

As he did, his pupils expanded and contracted without rest.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had obtained a rather valuable ally.

Even though a simple conversation should not contain that much relevant information.

In any case.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was not a bad start.

Of course, I omitted the part about me being the System.

I explained everything related to the Developer to Samra in detail.

***

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

I also told him about the seven missing days in my memories.

While listening to my story, Samra searched for information about the Developer across social networks and databases around the world in real time.

I simply told him that I had played the games created by that person for two years and that, in the end, I had been transported into HasFac against my will.

“There are some scattered references, but nothing particularly useful. voyage Ideally, it would be best to gain direct access to one of his streams.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

However, there was no record of it there.

The first game I purchased, Happy Smile Factory, had been bought through a digital distribution platform.

But I remembered neither his face nor his name.

Not of HasFac.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Samra even remotely powered on my computer and searched through all its files.

But he found nothing.

Not even that I had ever played the title.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Nor any of the other games.

Not a single fragment of information remained.

No HasFac.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was as if they had never been installed.

“There is a high probability that the Developer is an extraterrestrial entity.”

Not even traces of deletion.

After completing the search, Samra reached a conclusion.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Trials were a disaster originating from outer space.

People waiting.

It was a logical deduction.

“I will continue investigating a little more. abandon For now, perhaps we should leave. anchor There are people waiting.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

So I nodded obediently.

Everything began to melt.

Just hearing that made me feel tired.

But I needed to handle the situation properly from the beginning.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

But Samra’s virtual space was different.

Normally, when a Trial ended, the surroundings distorted into fluorescent colors resembling neon lights before disappearing.

Everything shone with the same holographic colors as his eyes.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Unable to bear the brightness, I closed my eyes.

White light flooded my vision.

When I opened them again.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Although the welcome was a little more aggressive than I expected.

“…Oh.”

I had returned to reality.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 10 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dozens of sniper rifle laser sights were pointed directly at me.

I could not help letting out an exclamation.
