I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me?

‘This is insane.’

I could only sum up my thoughts in one sentence.

Hanging under Pasung’s CEO Cha’s arm, I found myself enjoying the absurdity of the situation.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I knew it wasn’t the time for it, but I still couldn’t stop shifting my gaze back and forth between Je Hyuno and Pasung’s CEO Cha.

After hearing Je Hyuno’s words, Pasung’s CEO Cha let out a brief, mocking laugh.

“Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno, you’re quite confident in yourself, aren’t you?”

After that, the two of them simply stared at each other in silence.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

In the World Archive, they had almost never shared the same stage.

Even though the Trial Response Agency, as a government organization, and Pasung, as a private company, cooperated with one another, Je Hyuno and Pasung’s CEO Cha never handled a Trial together.

Putting two people with such overwhelming individual abilities into the same Trial would have been a waste.

It was hard to believe that two beings who were so alike and yet so different were standing face to face.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Even so, both were fully aware of the other’s existence.

And they also knew that, to stop the Trials that continued multiplying, they would eventually need each other.

That was why they almost never crossed paths.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

And it wasn’t just because he was my favorite character.

No matter how insane Pasung’s CEO Cha’s actions had been, under no circumstances could he be seriously injured or killed.

‘Although Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno doesn’t seem to realize that.’

At that moment, it looked like the only thing on his mind was smashing Pasung’s CEO Cha to pieces with his metallic hand.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Maybe it was because I kept glancing at them.

Even if he had torn away an entire side of the Trial Response Agency building, I was certain that not even Director Jang Seokyun would ever impose a punishment that prevented him from participating in Trials.

There wasn’t a single Suitable in the entire world who could compare to Pasung’s CEO Cha.

If someone like him disappeared, humanity’s defense against the Trials would suffer a devastating blow.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

But, with the worst possible timing, I was suddenly hit by a violent coughing fit.

Without realizing it, both Je Hyuno and Pasung’s CEO Cha had turned their eyes toward me.

Startled, I lowered my gaze.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

There was still an enormous amount of dust hanging in the air.

“Cough…! anxiety Cough, cough!”

I couldn’t help feeling a little wronged.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Even Seo Mooncha didn’t seem affected.

Je Hyuno was wearing a gas mask.

Pasung’s CEO Cha had his mask.

In the end, it felt like I was the only one who had inhaled all the dust.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Sorry for interrupting your conversation. canvas I just breathed in too much dust…”

With a hoarse voice, I apologized awkwardly.

When I finally stopped coughing loudly, an awkward silence fell over the area.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I looked up at Pasung’s CEO Cha in complete bewilderment.

Even mixed with that mechanical tone, it was unmistakably laughter.

Then a loud laugh echoed through the air.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I’d better take you to Pasung as soon as possible.”

Simply because I was overwhelmingly curious about what expression he was hiding behind that mask while he laughed.

For that brief instant, I almost wanted to sign the contract.

After laughing for a few moments, he looked down at me and said,

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was Je Hyuno moving his metallic hand.

The faint sound of metal striking metal rang out.

Clink. echo Clink.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Pasung’s CEO Cha immediately stopped laughing and openly sighed.

He then drew his sword.

“How impatient.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Great Sun Tathāgata revealed its blade as it radiated white light.

To prevent Samra from detecting his movements, Pasung’s CEO Cha had used an extraordinarily valuable consumable.

It seemed that, in the end, the two of them were going to fight after all.

If my guess was correct, it was an item that couldn’t be obtained even for a fortune.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Then he never intended to retreat in the first place…’

But even so.

If a confrontation had become inevitable.

It was precisely because Pasung’s CEO Cha himself preferred to avoid confronting Je Hyuno and the Trial Response Agency’s Suitables whenever possible that he had resorted to using such a valuable item.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

But it seemed impossible.

Wasn’t there any way to prevent all of this?

There was no need to mention Je Hyuno.

I felt like my head was going to explode.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then I heard a familiar voice.

And Pasung’s CEO Cha wasn’t going to retreat either after coming this far without gaining anything in return.

“Pasung’s CEO Cha. aluminum That’s enough.”

At this rate, it really seemed as though one of them would have to die before this was over.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

One step behind them stood Won Taebeom as well.

It was Director Jang Seokyun.

The first thing I did was quickly check Samra’s and Won Taebeom’s condition.

He had arrived together with Samra and a group of Trial Response Agency soldiers.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Samra’s arms had returned completely to normal.

Fortunately, neither of them appeared to have suffered any serious injuries.

The Trial Response Agency soldiers were fully armed, but not one of them pointed their weapon at Pasung’s CEO Cha.

Wearing an utterly exhausted expression, Director Jang Seokyun spoke.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Continuing this would only be a pointless act and a meaningless waste.”

And, of course, neither did Je Hyuno.

But Pasung’s CEO Cha showed no intention whatsoever of sheathing Great Sun Tathāgata.

Jang Seokyun discreetly gestured toward me with his eyes before speaking again.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Han Goyo regained consciousness only moments ago after fourteen days. alpha He is currently suffering from paralysis in the lower half of his body and an overall decline in his physical functions.”

“It appears Recruit Han’s condition isn’t exactly good.”

Samra fixed his gaze on Pasung’s CEO Cha.

For some reason, I felt as though his gaze was almost accusatory.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Of course not. admire The one who created this situation was the Trial Response Agency. shadow Not me.”

“Samra. album You know perfectly well why I had to go this far, don’t you? ability And you as well, Director Jang?”

Pasung’s CEO Cha raised Great Sun Tathāgata and pointed it at Samra.

“Pasung’s CEO Cha. antique Was this the outcome you intended to achieve?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

But Pasung’s CEO Cha’s words ended there.

The situation, which had seemed to calm down slightly with Director Jang Seokyun’s arrival, was gradually beginning to deteriorate once again.

I wished someone would explain to me whatever it was that Samra and Director Jang Seokyun seemed to know.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Become a freelancer.

At that moment, I basically had three options.

‘Isn’t this a good opportunity?’

While I was still hanging under Pasung’s CEO Cha’s arm, something suddenly occurred to me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Neither Pasung nor the Trial Response Agency would let me act on my own.

Objectively, the first was the most difficult.

Join the Trial Response Agency.

Join Pasung.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Maybe it was just an unfounded concern, but I couldn’t rule out the possibility that someone might try to kidnap me.

According to what Samra had told me earlier, my personal information was already being circulated overseas.

And besides, I also needed the protection of an organization.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

They had torn off an entire side of the Trial Response Agency building to demonstrate how important “Han Goyo” was to them.

And just now, Pasung had detonated a real bomb.

So that left only two options Pasung or the Trial Response Agency.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

In principle, that meant my contract as a recruit had already ended.

On top of that, I had fulfilled my promise to the Trial Response Agency by clearing three Trials in one month.

‘That means I can legally move between Pasung and the Trial Response Agency.’

Neither Pasung nor the Trial Response Agency had wanted me to have a choice.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

In other words.

And thanks to Je Hyuno arriving at the perfect moment, Pasung’s CEO Cha could no longer force me to sign that contract.

But as things became more complicated, the situation had ended up becoming exactly that.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

After thinking for a few seconds, I timidly raised one hand.

If I made some mediocre remark, they would simply ignore me.

I now had a unique opportunity to extract the greatest possible benefit from both organizations.

The problem was how to take advantage of it.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Excuse me…”

Now the center of attention, I put on the most miserable expression I could manage and spoke.

Everyone’s eyes turned toward me at the same time.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I think I’m dying…”

No one answered.

But I decided to assume they did and pretended to feel a little worse.

“First of all, I think I need to stay alive if I’m going to sign a contract with either Pasung or the Trial Response Agency, don’t you agree? silence I assume everyone agrees with that.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Mr. arctic Gunbam.”

Just as I was about to add that, if Je Hyuno and Pasung’s CEO Cha started fighting, I’d probably die in the middle of the battle.

Incredibly, the very moment I said those words, I felt my condition genuinely worsen.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

He sounded slightly bewildered.

“…?”

Now that I thought about it, I had only just woken up after fourteen days. antique Maybe I really had pushed myself too hard.

I heard Dominic’s voice.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I quickly raised a hand to my lips.

Drip.

Suddenly, something surged violently up from inside me and spilled out of my mouth before I could stop it.

I felt a warm wetness.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Slowly, I lowered my hand.

That was the last thing I saw.

My entire palm was stained red.

Before I lost consciousness.

“Mr. sphere Gunbam, did you have fun this time too?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

[Gunbam: It was amazing! atom I loved the characters.]

[Gunbam: And the extra scene you added after the ending was really interesting.]

[Gunbam: Will the next game have an extra scene too?]

[Gunbam: It was also really fun exploring the Trial Response Agency and Seoul inside the game.]

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Of course. canvas I’ll make sure the next one has one too.”

“It’s nothing. avalanche As long as Mr. meadow Gunbam enjoys himself, that’s enough for me.”

[Gunbam: Please include one. august T_T]

[Gunbam: Thank you so much!]

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Ah… sorry, Mr. anxiety Gunbam. arcade I frightened you, didn’t I? meadow It was nothing. audit Forget about it.”

“How fortunate I was to find Mr. aspect Gunbam. galaxy If I hadn’t found you… I… would still be looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you, looking for you…”

[Gunbam: I really do have a lot of fun.]

[Gunbam: Are you okay?]

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Forget it.”

[Gunbam: Okay.]

[Gunbam: But…]

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Really? arena Then you’ve already forgotten what I said just now, right?”

[Gunbam: Ah, I think I fell asleep for a moment. autumn T_T I wasn’t even that tired today…]

“Haah… I don’t want to act like this in front of Mr. timber Gunbam. alert What if I keep touching him and he ends up getting hurt? attic Ah… no. arctic That can’t happen. acid Never Mr. absorb Gunbam. antenna At least not him. anxiety Ah… ah… Mr. antenna Gunbam. atomic Why aren’t you saying anything? aspect Say something. canvas Quickly. amateur Please!”

[Gunbam: Wow! armor What’s it going to be about this time?]

“Very good, Mr. academy Gunbam. academy Well done. antique Then I’ll give you the next game today.”

[Gunbam: That the next game will have an extra scene too? alien I didn’t forget.]

***

I slowly opened my eyes.

“This time, the game will be…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Right. aluminum A whole side of the Trial Response Agency building was torn off.’

With such a massive hole in the building, it was obvious they wouldn’t be able to use it for a while.

It wasn’t the familiar hospital room at the Trial Response Agency.

It was an entirely different room.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was because of the dream I had just had.

As I absentmindedly thought about that, a chill slowly crept over me.

“……”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

And I had a feeling that it hadn’t happened only once.

My past self had been unable to realize that the Developer had been acting like a complete madman right in front of his eyes.

In that dream, I had recovered memories I had forgotten.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Although I still couldn’t remember clearly, there had surely been many other occasions when anyone would have felt that something wasn’t right.

Without suspecting a thing.

Yet the me back then had accepted every strange phenomenon I experienced while watching the Developer’s streams and playing his games as though they were perfectly normal.

‘What if it wasn’t that I was incapable of suspecting anything, but that I was being manipulated?’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Manipulating a human mind wouldn’t be difficult for him.

If the Developer truly was a divine being, that was entirely possible.

After all.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I didn’t know why those memories had returned specifically in the form of a dream.

Until recently, I myself had completely forgotten all of that.

But as I tried to piece them back together, a chill ran down my spine.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Trials had begun four years ago, when a meteorite fell to Earth.

The me from back then hadn’t even been aware that the meteorite had fallen.

And yet.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

It’s true that I had been completely isolated from the outside world at the time.

Even if the Developer had been manipulating me, I hadn’t started playing Archive until two years later.

But even so, it was strange.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

And even when I met Samra after clearing Haspack.

The moment I realized, thanks to him, that everything I had experienced in the game was actually happening in the real world.

And only now did I realize how strange my way of thinking had been.

I hadn’t felt the slightest doubt.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Am I really in my right mind?’

Once I understood that both my memories and my perception had been distorted, a much deeper question began tormenting me.

I didn’t even know when everything had started going wrong.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I slowly exhaled.

I ran a hand over my face, soaked in cold sweat.

“……”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dominic’s voice finally managed to calm me down.

“Mr. arcade Gunbam, how are you feeling?”

Perhaps, once I completely digested ■■■■, I would recover even more memories.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Come to think of it, I wonder if they managed to resolve all that?’

As I listened to the Pudding Slime’s lament, I remembered the disaster that had taken place just before I lost consciousness.

“I never imagined Mr. crystal Gunbam would be so fragile.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I wouldn’t have been surprised to discover that the room I was in now belonged to Pasung.

I had passed out before I could even try to persuade anyone, so I had no idea how everything had ended.

‘Although why is there no one here again?’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

I thought it would be Samra, so I turned my head.

The room’s door opened.

With some effort, I managed to sit up, and while checking whether I could finally move my legs.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 91 published by TrungTu Reads.

The one who entered the room was Director Jang Seokyun.

“Recruit Han. advance You’re finally awake.”

But.
