I stared down at the bug's body for a long time. It didn't make sense. Something must be wrong with the system if it still deemed this bug to be 'alive'. "Now I just have to wait, right? I did as I was told.""Hey, we've completed our assignment, let us out!"Why isn't there a scenario completion message? A system message should have appeared as soon as the bug was killed.
[There has been a problem with the main scenario system.]With a tsuchuchut sound, Bihyung appeared out of thin air. He looked back at me and the others with a troubled look on his face.[Hey...... everyone.]
The moment I saw his face, I realized what I missed. I was an idiot. Why didn't I notice sooner?—Here's another one who's playing tricks.A little while ago, Bihyung said that in the dokkaebi communication. That meant that I wasn't the only one who was playing the scenario in an unusual way. At first, I thought he was referring to Kim Dokja. But there was something I hadn't considered. There wasn't just one 'reader' in this scenario.
Bihyung, who was twitching his lips, spoke up in a disapproving voice. [You think this is some kind of bug killing game. This scenario is really weird. How can the same thing happen at the same time.......]The exact same thing happening at the exact same time. I looked at the ahjussi. He seemed to be thinking the same thing. "No way......."
Somewhere in the world, there are readers who have read 'Omniscient Reader' just like him. They knew the solution to the first scenario, just like we did, so they chose to catch bugs and clear the scenario. What we didn't realize was that too many people had used that solution.[The Bureau has detected an unnatural flow in the scenario.][The probability of the scenario beings to tilt.]
[The will of the *is moving.]A trope that has been tried so often, it has lost its novelty.[You've got to hand it to humans for being cruel, killing poor bugs to save their own lives....]
I glanced down at the bug carcasses strewn throughout the station. Miserably squashed and trampled corpses. The recognition of bugs as 'living things' might mean that they were also 'scenario participants'. So what did we look like in their eyes? Bihyung looked at the bug carcasses on the floor, shook his head, and turned away."W-what's that all about?""I thought we were supposed to kill bugs to live?"
"It'll be fine, I'm sure he's just trying to scare us.""Right, right, we played by the rules!"In this world, the rules of the 'scenario' were absolute. In particular, the 'Main Scenario' had an authority that even the dokkaebis could not violate. No matter how much Bihyung disliked the situation, the main scenario could not be changed unless the entire Bureau moved. Tsuchuchuchut. It had to be like that.
"U-uaaa! What's going on?"This had never happened in 'Omniscient Reader'. Not even when the
