The Parallel World's Lazy Self
I never imagined that I'd get cursed at by my parallel self from another world, so I reflexively replied with a comment as if in the gallery.
"What the hell is this?"
"Does this mean my body said something wrong?"
"Then does that mean you're agreeing that I'm an M-seong?"
"Since the words are getting through, it seems you're not completely brain-dead."
"This bastard."
Should I say it's just as I expected?
Probably my parallel self from the parallel world isn't a proper guy either.
Otherwise, I never thought a guy would come out using the noob speech style in the gallery while role-playing.
Probably some washed-up black-hearted has-been who wrote an unpopular wuxia novel and went bankrupt.
Anyone like me, a gallery expert, could see through the ugly mask with just one such post.
"What?"
"Poor guy."
"Hah... there's no one more brain-dead than you."
Calling me a has-been with a ruined life, but the guy who's sulking when he gets insulted is like a hypocrite, yet with my kind heart tempered by years as head moderator, I have to forgive him.
"If I hadn't fallen into the martial world, would I have become such a brain-dead person?"
But then the guy suddenly started saying things I didn't understand.
"?"
"You don't know your own ability? This body means Kim Namu from the world that fell into the martial world one day."
"Eh?"
People say that if you're too surprised, your body freezes.
For a moment, I didn't understand what the guy was saying.
"When I entered this gallery, your info automatically came to mind. I was hoping it would help me climb the Tower in the world where there is a Tower, but tsk."
In summary, this guy is Kim Namu who fell into the real martial world, not a blackened has-been or role-playing noob.
The sense of kinship from Changgung Geomje quickly disappeared, but instead, anticipation started to rise.
"Enough with the useless arguing with brain-dead people."
And unlike before, my head started spinning very vigorously.
The guy in the gallery right now probably wants a picture of him and me from the world with the Tower, studying together, encouraging each other, exchanging info, and laughing haha ho ho.
So that's why he's showing such disappointed and cheeky reactions.
Anyone who comes to the gallery to hear their favorite stories, if the gallery is an useless place that talks about completely different things from the name, wouldn't they just click back?
If that's the case, disappointed Changgung Geomje would quit the gallery.
Then.
"Is that true?!"
The guy who was about to declare quitting the gallery took the bait.
From what I heard, if I had fallen into the martial world on the day the Tower was born in this world, I wouldn't have been able to finish it all.
I can't definitely satisfy the level of conversation the guy wants.
But.
If this guy is Kim Namu, not a random person from a random world?
If on the day the Tower was born, the guy forcibly fell into the martial world, wouldn't that be the case?
The works I couldn't finish until the end.
So I immediately started writing a post.
While displaying the internet and gallery in the void at the same time, I continued searching at high speed and took photos.
[Roughly the completed forms of the novels I was reading around the time the Tower was born and photos of the authors' next works]
Treasure Island exists!
I'm the guy who only trained in the martial world and lived a god life?
You're stacked up, right?
***
Fortunately, through a dramatic compromise with Changgung Geomje, if I provide the novel, the guy agreed to teach me martial arts.
So what started was basically some kind of meditation.
"How can you be sure of that?"
"?"
Reciting the content Changgung Geomje called out in my head, surprisingly, the mana sleeping in the heart area spread throughout the body.
At the same time, something was wriggling below the navel, probably this is the process of creating the lower dantian now.
"3 days?"
"Eh, it seems it's already started?"
Probably I thought it was the product of adult diseases from living in modern society with clogged blood vessels, but I misjudged the person.
Why would people make such a fuss about awakening?
When you awaken, your body condition becomes the best, like a game character waking up from sleep.
Patients with terminal cancer or those near death getting a new life through awakening has become a common story now.
So that's why even if you don't enter the Tower, the idea that awakening is always beneficial has been born.
Explaining this, Changgung Geomje fell silent.
Then he started a long monologue, but since I didn't know what he was saying, I just ignored it and focused on moving the mana inside my body.
The mana that was moving randomly suddenly started to have order, like moving through non-existent veins, and soon a certain regularity was born in the body.
At the same time, a strong refreshing feeling as if absorbing mint through every pore of the body, and a slight static electricity occurred around the body.
"Oh, jackpot."
Indeed, it seems the beginning of Gong is noble, not ordinary martial arts.
Stealing a glance, I got up from my seat and moved my body, and indeed the movement had changed.
The posture became straight, and from the fingertips to the toes, the body automatically found its place without consciousness.
"Oh."
Feeling strange, I jumped poljak poljak, punched at the air, and made a fuss, and indeed I felt it was different.
If it's like this, I think I can definitely enter the Tower.
[Promise Novel Clip]
Changgung, you have to take good care of the house while I'm away!
So after posting the promised novel in the gallery, I immediately manipulated the status window to enter the Tower.
With a blink of an eye, the surrounding scenery changed instantly, and I entered the 1st floor of the Tower.
The 1st floor of the Tower was a vast plain, and strangely, there was no terrain height difference, so nothing blocked the view.
But this place will now become a battlefield dyed with blood.
"Good, it was definitely a slime as I said."
It may look like I entered without any countermeasures, but in fact, this was possible because I investigated and knew everything.
As the head moderator of Hunter Gallery, I have gathered a bunch of information.
Clearly in the gallery, if you go to the 1st floor, you just have to deal with a few slimes and come out, so it was said to be extremely easy.
And I knew that slimes are easy to deal with by stepping on them with body weight if you're an adult male, so even without awakening, it's possible to clear, so I could enter confidently.
Moreover, now that I have acquired martial skills, nothing coming is scary.
"Come here!"
"Keruk?"
"Eh?"
So I confidently shouted and looked around, and my eyes met a green something crawling towards me in a prone position, flipping over the grass.
"Kiek! Keek!"
The guy, as soon as he revealed my position, shouted and rushed at me, and in an instant, too surprised, I turned around and ran away without thinking.
"Liar! You tricked me! Gallery rum rum!"
Clearly, when jumping at me, he was holding a knife in both hands trying to aim exactly at my neck.
I used my survival instinct, ran as fast as possible, and if I return to my room, I decided to permanently block the guy who posted the strategy post.
