The Guy Next Door to the Heroine

26 – VR Game Room

I put Cheong in the car and went to the game room. Cheong asks.

“But do you know where to go? I don’t know exactly where it is…”

“Of course you don’t know. Me and him know. There’s only one game room we’ve been to.”

In the past, three years ago, there was a time when Hana was still a high school student.

After rescuing Hana from being sold to human traffickers, I started raising her half-way.

“Well, at that time, it was my first time living with someone and my first time taking care of someone. Anyway, it was very awkward.”

If the child stays at home too much, will the trauma become worse? There was a time when I was taken outside with that thought in mind.

Well, of course, he was just like a kitten, sticking close behind me and being wary of his surroundings.

“It was as if he was going to do something really bad. To put it bluntly, I was very scared.”

“If you just listen to his voice, he’s a very strong person…”

“But his voice is a bit husky.”

She was often described as a ‘woman who attracts women’. Just listen to your voice.

“But it looks so small and cute that it doesn’t match his voice.”

“Yes…?”

I was shocked and thought, ‘That can’t be possible!’ This is a request, but this is reality. Of course, it’s over 160. It wasn’t as big as Violet.

Well, Violet was too small to be an adult. Damn arousal has reduced my appetite yet again.

“You will know when you see.”

Anyway, I was also a person who didn’t know who I was going out with and playing with. So I just went to the game room.

“Aren’t you going to the PC room?”

“You only know if I’ve been to a PC room. I didn’t even play any computer games.”

“Oh my god… There are still people like that…”

“This is Incheon, dude. Do you know what Incheon PC rooms are like?”

“Ah… Demon World Incheon…”

Of course, the Incheon in my memories and the Incheon here are very different, but I thought it would be enough to roughly think of the villains of Line 1.

However, if you get into trouble, you have the power to destroy everything.

“It’s bad for education.”

“That’s the problem?!”

“Yes. Anyway, I brought this guy here to take responsibility for him. I can’t act straight when I see idiots.”

Even if that were the case, would it have gone awry from what was already sold to my parents?

“Anyway, it’s the game room from back then.”

I was still clumsy, and I was also clumsy at everything.

“Oh… It’s been a year since I came here, so what has changed?”

“…? Is this a game room…?”

All the buildings that you have to look up to call them game rooms have game room signs. It became a game ‘building’ instead of a game ‘room’.

The sign I saw back then has not changed.

“Are you here?”

“Oh, it’s been a while.”

“Huh…? Huh…?”

The guy blinks and shakes his head as if he doesn’t believe what he’s seeing.

“This is the one.”

Height is barely above the cutoff point of 160. Her body was better than Cheongi’s, but at a poor level.

“This kid is him.”

“That’s right. The kid next door.”

“I’m not a kid!”

Isn’t the fact that you get upset at the word ‘kid’ already proof that you are a ‘kid’? It’s Cheong Icheong…

“Yes, then. I hope you have a good time.”

“Yes, good work to you too.”

Even though Hana has a lot of work to do, she still comes to see me one by one. That’s your little pleasure. Why are they saying that because I did such a good job?

Cheongi looked at Hana’s back as she said hello and left, then looked at me with strange eyes.

“Just because I’m small doesn’t mean I’m just as big as you.”

“Huh? Oh, I didn’t say anything.”

Just because you don’t talk doesn’t mean you can’t hear. You just have it written all over your face.

Can’t you see that you’re thinking to yourself, ‘I’m so small, but I’m working as a secretary…’?

“Ugh. One thing is. It’s because I can’t eat. It’s because I haven’t eaten properly since I was young.”

Do you think the b*tches who tried to sell their children fed them properly? Or would you have dressed it properly? It’s obvious that I couldn’t go to the hospital properly.

In a world where awakening exists, the age of barbarism, where the law has become farther away and fists have become much closer, has turned some areas into lawless areas.

One of them is Demon World Incheon. A city that was a lawless area until recently. Well, it’s okay for now.

“Let’s play a game.”

“Yes.”

When you enter the game room, there are classic games on the first floor. Something like Tekken, a rhythm game I used to play. Rock Paper Scissors…? Isn’t that gambling? Still, it’s Incheon, so what?

Anyway, there was also a zombie shooting game. Car racing, punching machines, etc. There were a lot of games.

“Huh?! I saw this a long time ago!”

“What should I say about this guy? If there’s something that catches his eye, he’s the type of person who digs it hard.”

Now that we have created a company, we have quite a bit of money, and we have taken over a game room. ‘Let’s build Incheon’s largest game building!’ My opinion is that you would have thought the same thing.

Almost unconditionally.

That’s stupid, let’s do it now! It is my role to say the same thing. This game center was acquired because it was before I could faithfully receive the report.

“But why are there so few people…?”

“Because it’s closed today.”

“Yes…? Then what should we do…”

“Here’s one.”

To be exact, I, Hana, and the others own it together. It was a building like that, and they gave me one to keep.

“He’s serious about the game room.”

Maybe it’s because it was my first time taking him there. I was captivated by the flashy gaming devices. I’ve heard that before.

“Well, Hana… didn’t you say Mr. Mr. Is your secretary…?”

“Is that correct?”

“Huh…? Aren’t you unemployed?”

“I’m unemployed. I have a lot of money.”

“Wow…”

I held on to Cheong, who was making endless ‘hum…’ Sounds, as if he was dumbfounded, as if his soul had disappeared, and showed him around.

“Wow…!”

After looking around the first floor, I came up to the second floor. A white space so stylishly designed that Cheong was amazed as soon as he saw it.

“It’s both a cafe and a game room. I once recommended, ‘If you’re going to do this, why not collect all generations?'”

Like nintendo, psp, will or playstation. Last generation gaming devices were lined up in abundance. Of course, these are still popular games.

Anyway, the result of the recommendation. This building, which was intended to be simply filled with an arcade, became a concept game building. This is the story.

“Let’s go to the third floor quickly.”

“Yes…? But, I haven’t looked around properly yet?”

Cheong, who had been captivated by the temptation of shiny games, was still unable to come to his senses.

I thought she was just trying to get over the fact that she was okay with gaming, but it turns out she was into gaming.

“VR games are the main focus on the 3rd floor.”

“Let’s go now!”

The most popular thing among kids these days is ‘VR.’ This 4th generation VR, which is closer to reality than just floundering in the air before, has succeeded in realizing the senses of smell and taste.

They say it’s still difficult to come up with something like Full Dive, but… Well.

At this level, it is quite possible for it to become popular.

“Well, I wanted to try this!”

“That? There are so many other things, why bother doing that?”

The game Cheong chose was something I didn’t quite understand.

“Beat Slayer? That’s an old game.”

“But, I wanted to try it! My mom doesn’t let me do this…”

“Um, well. I don’t know why they didn’t let you, but yeah, try it.”

There’s no way to stop someone from playing a game like that with their temperamental nature, right? I had a feeling there was some other reason, but there was no problem when I was there.

“Eight!”

Because I can’t hear the song. I don’t know what song they’re playing. Can’t you tell just by looking at the title?

I don’t listen to songs well and I don’t like memorizing names. Even if I know the title of the song, I don’t know the composer or singer.

Red and blue lightsabers are swung depending on the controller being wielded. A game where tiles hit by the beam of light are cut down.

Cheong was doing quite well. Of course, it’s okay because it’s the beginning and there aren’t that many tiles. Looks a little dangerous.

“Ah…!”

Failure came to mind along with exclamation, and Cheong took off the device and laughed.

“It’s difficult, but it’s a lot of fun! Do you want to do it too?”

“No. VR is not fun to me.”

It’s neither fun nor meaningful. What is this? Really.

“Eh… that’s fun.”

I have experienced much worse things than that in real life. Rather than flying tiles, complex abilities were flying.

I guess it’s more of a bullet hell game than a rhythm game. They say I mainly fight in close combat, so they only bring me from a distance… Ugh.

What can I do with those idiots? They would have searched everything anyway and there wouldn’t have been any traces left.

“Okay, have fun.”

“Hmm… But it’s not that fun because I’m alone. There aren’t many people around…”

If I were to interpret those words, it would be ‘Do it!’

“Yes.”

In the end, I guess I was destined to play with him from the moment I accepted his request for a date, not a date request.

“Wow… Time really flies!”

“… Yes.”

How does the more he plays, the more energy he has? No matter how much you are an awakened person, this is a little…

Awakened people are also people!

Well, it doesn’t matter because I don’t get tired. It wasn’t uninteresting, nor was it boring.

Honestly, he is a fun guy just to look at his face from the side. This face says ‘Play!’ If you do that, you have to play.

“Did you have enough fun? You skipped lunch and played.”

Now that I think about it, I didn’t eat lunch. Well, I don’t have a feeling of hunger. I feel like I eat because I want to. It’s probably not Cheong.

“Ah…! Lunch!”

After realizing it too late, or rather because I told him about it, he became sullen.

“Why, do I get scolded if I get caught?”

“Well, yes…”

Well, Bob Mac will do.
