Game Market 1983 Chapter 204

Chapter 204

After a while, Yuki and her mother-in-law, who came with a bag full of hands, greeted me as soon as they saw me.
“What have you packed so much for? That should be enough for us. ”
“It's much better than not having enough to eat when the employees of the company come over later in the evening. And you didn't catch any fish? ”
“Haha... Have you heard? ”
At that time, the father-in-law, who pulled out a fishing rod behind his back, opened his mouth with a laughing voice.
“I've been fishing with Joon-Hyuk for years, and I'm terribly incompetent. Kick-kick...”
“But whenever you want to go fishing, it's only Joon-Hyuk who hangs out with you. ”
“Well, that's just it, but here we go, son-in-law! ”
“Oh, yes. Sure."
“Grandpa, catch more fish!”
“Hello, Seohyun! I'll feed you fish for dinner!!" ”
After a while, his father-in-law grabs the point a little distance from the campground and throws it toward the shore.
“Nice view, so secluded...”
I pulled the cigarette out of my pocket, and my father-in-law pulled out a pack of cigarettes toward me, but I refused.
“I'm done.”
“Eeew ~ You. It's no more fun than last year. ”
“Haha... Is that so? ”
Sitting next to his father-in-law with an awkward smile, he asked me with a long smoke.
“So, how have you been? ”
“Well, it's the same every day. I woke up in the morning, dropped him off at school, went home to do some housework, went to a secluded park in the afternoon, read a book...”
“... why? Why don't you go to the Old Town Housewives' Club? ”
My father-in-law kicked his tongue and inhaled a cigarette deeply to make sure that my answer was not appropriate.
White cigarette smoke is dispersed in the air with clouds flowing in the wind over a clear lake.
After a while, the craftsman who rubbed his cigarette in a portable ashtray slashed his throat with a knife or bottled water, and he heard snowflakes from a distance.
“Grandpa!! Did you catch a lot of fish? ”
“Queek! Will you rescue me as soon as I throw a fishing needle?" ”
Seohyun ran into the rifle step and sat down next to me, wondering if he was bored by Yuki preparing food.
“If you get your clothes dirty, your mom will scold you again. ”
I put Seohyun on a small chair with a fishing rod by the lake and sat on the grass instead.
“I talked to my dad about something. Grandpa?”
“Hmm? It's just grown-ups talking. ”
“Hmmm ~ My dad told me about the Tokyo game show in 1995 on the way here, and it was so much fun!”
“Really? Well, your father was famous there. But the fact is, after the Tokyo game show, things are much more fun. ”
“Yes? Why? What happened to you? ”
Suddenly, I just smiled and looked at the two of them.

The second episode of Dragon Emblem sold one million copies within Japan within a month of its release. Million sellers have been on the market since the recession. The dragon emblem has brought great energy to the gaming market.
Users began to build their own commander characters and mercenaries until the front-line system opened.
And then a month later.
Arcade centers across Japan have seen PVP-specific devices that battle opponents with their own characters so far.
To check the reactions of the gamers, the Pentagon shop unloaded the device a day earlier than in other areas, and as soon as it was light that day, it phosphorylated users who were running with a portable Raon in their hands.
“Damn it!! No!!! ”
It was a simple system that attempted an attack with just a button, but every turn it needed to be discreet, as it required a pretty profound strategy to deploy mercenaries in the commander's own line of work.
In addition, the number of cases increases indefinitely when the special ability of a Sword Fragment is added.
Ability to manipulate the goddess of destiny to bring about an unconditional preemptive turn.
Ability to maximize the Defense Strength of allies instead of delivering postponement.
Ability to seal one enemy character at the start of a battle.
Some users sometimes share the ability to disable the opponent's equipment with the ability of a sword that is close to deception.
Among them, the ability of the Sword Fragment that the user fears the most is the ability to steal equipment worn by the opponent when winning battles.
“No!!! Claymore, +6!!! ”
Gosh... I can't ignore the user content consumption rate of +6 steel daggers a month.
Users who came to enjoy PVP were close to 2,000 people a day, but the device rotation was still very fast.
The PVP Battle of Dragon Emblem was not only a coin, but a special item called a front-line combat support form.
There was a ‘battlefield contribution’ in the PVP system that competed for power in one sector, which recorded how many battles the commander had participated in and how many victories he had won and was able to earn legendary items as a reward for his subsequent victories in that sector.
In total, the Pentagon prepared 16 battle zones, and the two forces fought endlessly to occupy more realms and items from each other.
Thus, a community of experts began to emerge about the second episode of Dragon Emblem naturally, and without a separate announcement from the Pentagon, fast users began to announce to the community what was going on at the front.
And the community was becoming a massive virtual nationalization created by dragon emblem users themselves.
There were detailed bulletin boards that allowed players to enter by authenticating their battlefield contributions, and in the case of higher boards, there was also room for the brains who predicted the game of war to gather and discuss the next sector to attack.
A truly fun online game is not about operators using their authority to control the world as they please…
All you have to do is keep the world intact in order for the player to learn how to live in it and realize the joy.
At least I knew of the early online games.
Dragging horses to the scenic waterfront and talking about Dorado amongst my close friends, there was definitely a fun game…
In this sense, the Dragon Emblem community was like a field of dialogue created by weary users themselves.
The chat rooms there didn't expect to disappear for 24 hours, and the information boards were filled with information about the pieces of the Sword and equipment that could be obtained by crafting new items each time, and each party's free board was filled with players chatting about everyday life.
I've been working with the users in that space for a while.
I don't know, but there must have been quite a few Pentagon employees hiding their identities and enjoying the community like me.
Interestingly, when calling other users in the community, they were given the title 'Sir’, which would appear in the fantasy world as anyone other than 'Mr.' Anybody. 'Many people enjoyed playing real roles in the community by naming users' King of Mercenaries’ who are currently taking the top contributions on the battlefield.
But the really amazing part about the second episode of Dragon Emblem...

“We haven't unified the continent yet. ”
“Really!? ”
“As far as I'm concerned, Isn't that right, Joon-Hyuk? ”
“That's right. I heard a lot of force has been leaning toward Humans lately and that the Horsemen are still holding out for about two sectors. ”
In my answer, Seohyun opened his mouth with a bored expression.
“Are you saying you've been playing the same game for 10 years? ”
“Well, technically, it's not quite the same. I've done five upgrades in the last decade...”
Honestly, I thought it was going to be a long five years at first, but in version three, Hayashi is making a lot of improvements to the online system, so the game life has doubled...
But the coin returns from those decades were not to be ignored.
Even in the early days of the PVP system, it was a misunderstanding whether all the coins in Japan were flowing into the Pentagon...
“Heave-ho!! I got another one. ”
... But you're telling Seohyun stories and luring him like a ghost...
I can't even tell if the stew is shaking at the surface or if the fish have caught it...
“Wow! This is huge!! ”
You can't catch any more powerful fish in a bucket the size of an adult's forearm.
“Joon-Hyuk!!!! The Pentagon staff are almost here!! ”
“Yes!! I'll be right there.”
Suddenly, the sunset setting over the mountain flooded the lake red, the bright stars in the early evening sky without any light, and his father-in-law started throwing fish into the bucket and into the lake one by one.
“Grandpa, why are you throwing the fish you tried so hard to catch again? ”
“We need to get the young ones back to the lake. Otherwise your grandmother would have packed so much food, she probably wouldn't even need fish. ”
Seohyun nodded at his grandfather's words and put his hand in the bucket.
“Well, hello to you too!! ”
“Seolhyun!! That's the one I just caught!! ”
Boom.
With a loud noise the size of an adult's forearm, the father-in-law smiled blankly at the missing fish.
What does a game like the feeling of a user who has lost a +9 Dagger to an enemy?
“Ah-ha-ha! Goodbye!! ”
Only Seohyun's voice waving his hand towards the fish that disappeared quickly resounded on the quiet shore of the lake.

“This ~ ~ ~ is ~ ~ Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ”
After a while, Kaori, the first bus to arrive at the campground, rushes towards me.
“Long time no see, Director!! ”
“What took you so long? I saw you with Yuki in Shibuya last week. ”
“Ugh. Old and new. ”
“Hmph! Just your husband? ”
“Yes? What did I say? ”
Havashi came to the table with a load on his shoulders and swallowed a mouthful of laughter as he lowered his food on the ground.
“I told you to come empty-handed, why did you buy me this...”
Later, associates who were familiar with Kawaguchi representatives, including Maurita, Uchimura, Miyazaki, etc. were revealed.
“Wow, what a view! It would have been better if you had come during the day…”
“Welcome, everyone. You're hungry, right? We just finished eating, so let's get this party started. ”
Yuki, wearing a pink apron, greeted the Pentagon employee, and Kaori and Miyazaki started wearing extra aprons as well.
Early in the evening, the campground quickly became crowded with Pentagon staff.
“Looks like you've come to play...”
While I was watching the employees with my hands at my waist, Hayashi came to me with a cigarette light on.
“Phew... how are you? ”
“Well, that's just it. How's the fortress?”
“Thank you so much, Director. Dragon emblem online. As scheduled, when the continent is unified in the second episode, it will be released. ”
“You must be busy...”
“So will you stop coming back and help us?" ”
“Are you saying that again? ”
“It's your first project, so you have to finish it. ”
“Hmm. Finish... Huh? By the way, aren't Kanna's people here? ”
“... look at this. I thought I'd tell you again. Kanna says he's running a little late. Because of the broadcast schedule...”
“Really? I hope it's not too late...”
“Oh, I see. I heard that song on the bus on the way over. ”
“Oh... I heard that, too. ”
“It's been a long time since I heard of it. Tsubaki-san's voice...”
“I see. ”
“Director, were you at Tsubaki's last live performance? Do you remember the first greeting I said to you? ”
“Yes, of course. ”
At Hayashi's words, I suddenly remembered that day, and I saw a smile leaning against a nearby wooden fence.
Author's Words
Thank you for reading today.
Some of your readers have said that the sudden development of the story will be the end of the class...
Not at all ^ ^
Unlike so far, I wanted to tell the story in a different way.
Due to sacrifice tomorrow, Yeouijae may be a little late..;
Your back isn't clean yet. You're in parallel with physical therapy.;
The nerves seem to be slowing down my recovery.
Thanks for your patience, we will protect daily events even if it is late.
