Chapter 223 – Is This Real? (01)

My whole body hurts from muscle pain and my head continues to feel dizzy.

In addition, bitter water keeps coming out of my mouth while I sleep, as if I’m sick, my body feels like it’s freezing, I’m sweating and my head hurts like it’s going to boil.

But despite that, I was able to sleep comfortably.

Rather than the physical pain, I guess it’s because I feel so comfortable knowing I’ve done everything that was left in my heart.

‘Or maybe I just passed out because it hurt so much.’

As my body gradually recovered, I began to feel anxious little by little.

When I open my eyes, where will I be?

Will I wake up with adult mode installed in the game as it was? Or will I stay in this world and continue my life?

Am I… ‘Aren’?

Or is it someone outside the monitor named Aren?

When I opened my eyes like that.

“…Oh shit…A dream?”

I woke up on a bed with cookie crumbs rubbing against my skin.

The tip of my nose was tingling because I didn’t close the window properly when I was sleeping, and when I looked in the mirror, I saw that I had a strawberry nose.

It was almost certain that I had a cold because my neck was sore.

And when I got up and looked at the computer, I saw this text on the half-off screen.

= Congratulations! =

= You, Aren, succeeded in the third hidden ending! =

= Number of successful heroines: 6 =

= Number of surviving heroines: 6 =

Deceptively simple text on a black screen.

Normally, when you see the ending, there would be a story about who got married to who and who got into some high position, but there wasn’t even that.

“Ugh. It would be too much to expect something like that from this shit adult mode.”

No matter what button I press, it doesn’t quit.

As this game is full of bugs, I forced it to quit by pressing Control+Alt+Delete, but even that didn’t work as it made a beeping sound, so I just turned off the code.

‘I’m not criticizing this useless mode.’

As soon as you reboot again, the modes and games are deleted.

Anyway, I read other route endings on the wiki, and I don’t even remember what the crappy Chinese adult mode ending is…

“Ugh, it’s cold…”

I turned on the electric blanket and sent a text message on my cell phone saying I was sick today and asking for annual leave, and I fell asleep again.

* ​ * ​ *

Still, my cold wasn’t too bad, so I ate spicy soup all day and took vitamins and cold medicine in advance, so I was able to go to work the next day just fine.

Because it is not a cold caused by germs in the first place.

‘I think I’m forgetting something’

I live a busy day today, a busy day tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.

But something felt strange.

‘Why is the keyboard awkward?’

‘Why don’t you make a phone call? If you call someone with just your voice, they’ll answer.’

‘Why…My side feels empty…Ah, it’s always like that’

I felt strange in my life.

I am the same as usual, but why…

Wow-

[Did you enjoy the game? If you want to do more, go to the link below…]

Who is this number? As soon as I saw it, he told me to click on the first link I saw, so I simply marked it as spam.

“Ugh… I have to leave work early today…”

Fortunately, it was a busy season at work, so there wasn’t much to say even when I left work early, and I made it a habit to sit down in front of the computer as soon as I got home.

Then, I look for information about Celestial Academy that I had stopped reading about before.

Route 1, Academy Route. Or the royalist route.

Together with the Prince of Light, Sailian, he ends the rebellion of the Duke faction and becomes a public servant of the kingdom.

The second route, the treason route. Or the Duke route.

If you destroy the kingdom with Ophelia and win against the duke at the end, it’s the true ending route. If you fail, it’s the bad ending route.

‘Hmm? Wasn’t there something more?’

Just in case, I asked on a related bulletin board and got this answer.

Previously, there was someone who wrote the ending of a personal mode that someone had created, but it was deleted due to lack of credibility as it was not official DLC.

I was curious about the contents, so I was checking it out, but I couldn’t even find the previous version because it had already been deleted.

“Ah… Now that I think about it, what was the mode?”

When I look up Celestial Academy’s mods, I only see a few difficulty mode mods or mods that change the characters to other game characters, but there were none that I thought of.

Just in case, I asked if there was a mode in which Chinese was spoken, you could do dirty things, and you could create a third route and take everyone, and he said this.

“If I tell you, will you make it?”

No, I’m not a developer. How do I make it?

Moreover, if it was in that adult mode, it would be reported as pornographic, so I had no choice but to give up looking for it anymore after being asked if I wanted to go to the police station together.

‘Is it a dream?’

It seemed like I had a dream like that recently after struggling for a few days to get through Celestial Academy.

“Wow… I enjoyed it that much. Let’s let it go now.”

Finally, I deleted Celestial Academy and looked for games worth playing, and ended up browsing the Internet all day.

‘How did I live without this?’

I show you everything you’re curious about, and even if you’re not curious, I show you something interesting. Show me things I didn’t want to see once in a while.

As I went around one by one, I found myself back in the Celestial Academy surrender, and as I looked at each character, a thought occurred to me.

“Is this what a Cylian looks like?”

The Prince of Light, who has a grumpy and unlucky look on his face, looking down at the protagonist.

If you become close to him / her, he / she will take good care of you, but if the intimacy is lacking, he / she will mercilessly use you as a tool …

I think I welcomed my friend warmly while being a bit more lively and a little bit cheeky.

Even though we weren’t very close, we tried to be as round as possible and it felt like we were encompassing everyone.

“Hmm…”

And dragon slayer Kay is wearing stylish dragon skin armor, but why … Do I only remember him with his on top of her off her of her?

Besides that, I feel strange every time I look at other characters.

“It didn’t happen like this.”

Marian was also a girl prosecutor who seemed cold and cold on the outside, but when you got to know her, she had a warm heart and was a kind class president who treated the protagonist kindly.

She, like Inori, was not just loyal out of a sense of duty; she was a character who really liked the main character on the inside, but she tried not to show it because of her sense of duty.

She has a naive side that looks at the stars like Alice, but she also has a secretly sinister heart hidden inside her, but she also has a devoted side that gives everything once she gives her heart.

Melissa is not just a sickly girl, but a girl who works hard to protect her, her, her pure love, her, her.

Golem No. 2 is also not a stiff, simple replacement for Melissa.

And even though Ophelia was a childhood friend, she was not chosen because she did not appeal because of her wrong character, but she was truly a precious friend who could not be given up due to the emotions accumulated from being together since childhood.

“Ha, those who don’t know anything… !”

I was so angry that I tried to edit the content written by people I didn’t know well, and my IP was permanently banned.

Don’t tell me you’re pushing alone?

She sighed and lay down and tried to sleep, but she couldn’t sleep, so she wondered why she was like that.

It’s strange.

On the day I played the game with that special mode installed, I got a taste of the game very early, and when I woke up it was the next morning.

But after playing that game, I couldn’t remember anything.

Above all, the game was originally that long in the first play, and you beat it all in one day? No matter how many difficulty easing patches etc.?

‘Did I just skip it while using the cheat key? After all, you’ve seen all the early lines, right?’

I was thinking like that while trying to sleep.

I felt something cold and cool between the narrow gap on the side of the bed and stroked it with my hand.

“…Huh? Why is something like this here?”

A tattered old book was stuck between the walls.

I couldn’t check the title because it was written in Chinese characters, but when I opened the contents and looked around, I saw that it was very blurry, like an old genre painting, with a story about a man and a woman taking off their clothes and merging with each other, or giving a strange drug to a woman and turning her into a slave.

“What is this? Have I ever bought something like this?”

As I went through them one by one, it seemed like the characters were supposed to appear as ancient Chinese, but strangely, most of them were Westerners and about one person appeared as Asian.

I tried to take a picture with my cell phone and automatically translate the Chinese characters, but the writing was damaged so it couldn’t be recognized properly, so I had no choice but to find it by writing down the Chinese characters one by one.

“Companion trainee…”

Something feels very erotic.

I wasn’t going to be able to sleep well anyway. As I was lying down and checking the book, a thought suddenly occurred to me.

“Haha… This kid is so perverted. He plays all kinds of games… Is he still warm? Is he really crazy…”

As I said that, I suddenly realized my ‘voice’ and stood up.

“…Oh shit! A dream!!”

I hit my head and immediately turned on the computer, having forgotten about it until now.

‘What really! Is that the ending of this? And you’re coming back?’

First, reinstall Celestial Academy, search the previously entered records, and download the file again.

However, I was told that the number of downloads had already ended and I could not check the messenger or post that I had mentioned at that time as it appeared as a member who had already withdrawn.

‘A member was canceled for sharing pornography?!’

No, it’s pornography!

I’m trying my best to search through the files, but unfortunately, when the backup point was completed this morning, the previous backup disappeared as if there was some kind of bug.

“Oh, no!”

Moreover, when I deleted Celestial Academy, the save file was lost.

Even when I tried turning on the game again, the load item was not selected as if I had turned it on for the first time.

“Ah… I… What on earth did I do…”

I was so embarrassed that my hands were shaking.

Could it be that I can’t meet them again?

Even though we live in different worlds, we don’t just stay, but we part ways without even saying goodbye properly?

As I was panicking, I remembered a spam text message that had recently arrived on my phone, and after searching through tens of thousands of spam text messages, I was finally able to find it.

Fortunately, spam arrived from the same number after that, so I was able to find it quickly.

[Awesome@game! Totally ($19) available! 6 heroines are waiting for you]

“You crazy guy! If you send it like this, of course it will be sent as a spam text!”

While cursing, I click on the link that came in the text message.

I waited to fly to the world of Celestial Academy like before.

[Connects to an international call]

“Huh? Huh?”

Tuurururu… Tuurururu…

After a brief beep, a familiar introductory sound rings out.

[Washapangsha Hongsoppajingji Raisha…]

“…Was it… Fishing?”

I am devastated.

I felt helpless and couldn’t come to my senses, as if I had been forcibly awakened from a very happy dream.

When you weakly try to press the end button on your phone.

[For a moment! It’s a joke! It’s a joke! Wait a minute!]

An urgent voice came from inside the cell phone.

A young boy’s voice that seems like I’ve heard it somewhere.

To be exact.

[You know this voice? Because… It’s ‘your’ voice?]

A boy’s version of ‘Aren’s voice was heard.
