World's Strongest Troll

Chapter 137 The real thing is imaginative! (4)

Lucid Dream, a virtual reality integrated production machine.

Unlike Dreamer, this device that realizes human imagination as data was not developed for popular purposes and uses.

“At least 20%. It has been confirmed through various experiments and cases that the efficiency decreases rapidly when a person with a lower synchro rate uses this lucid dream. To be honest, 20% is also the minimum, and I believe that in order to be active as a creator who utilizes this lucid dream, you must be able to show a synchro rate of at least 25%.”

Synchro rate, a topic where the concept of virtual reality was born in reality and began to be intensively studied.

An index that indicates how smoothly different human brains interact with mechanical devices. People with high levels of this could stand out and play an active role in the virtual reality-related industry, so Arcadia Co., Ltd. was also focusing on finding people with a high synchro rate. Until now.

[Can I show you a magic?]

[Magic...? Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...?]

After dancing for a long time, the two pretty boys and girls went out to the terrace. Then the man picked up the woman in the dress and began to rise into the air. And the frightened woman soon grabbed the man's chest and looked around at the surrounding scenery and said with an ecstatic expression.

[It's really... beautiful...]

People having a happy time chatting under such beautiful nature with a large moon shining around the castle where the ball was held, where they ate, drank, and danced. The man whispered to the woman who was looking at all this in wonder and charm.

[Your beauty is much more beautiful to me.]

“Kyaaaaaaa!”

“Aww stop! Please stop!”

“My hand! my feet!”

“Aaaaaaaa! Space-time shrinks!”

Those who blankly watched the scene appearing in the video. But soon, as if coming back to his senses from the cheesy remarks that seemed to have matured for decades, he grabbed his hands and feet here and there and started screaming in agony. In particular, the reaction of the woman who seemed to be Chaeyeon's friend was particularly intense.

“crazy! That's not a total pervert! The woman's face looks exactly like Chaeyeon. Didn't Chaeyeon make this video while imagining it?”

“uh? Come to think of it... She really resembles Chaeyeon, right?”

“for a moment....? Then the man in the video over there is...?”

Those who carefully examine the faces of the male and female protagonists at the exposure thrown almost as if accusing them. Although the man's face was completely different from Jae-gyun's, it was clear that he was a different person, but the female protagonist's face was very similar to Chae-yeon's, so everyone naturally came up with one idea.

‘Isn't that bastard, Chaeyeon, going around thinking about XXXX and XXXXX?'

And at that moment, violent reactions began to burst out here and there.

“No, was that possible for daily life? What kind of delusions do you usually have?”

“Fuck, if you go around thinking like that, can you date? Aren't you crazy?”

“Ooh! dirty! No matter how good-looking people come and say that, that's not the real thing. Kyaaak!”

Students who have already suffered serious internal injuries from a video that they cannot bear to watch with their eyes open. When they showed their hostility and resented Jae-gyun's atrocities (?), Professor Kim Tae-hoon and the staff calmed the students down with a puzzled face.

‘Haa..... Really, that asshole.....'

The unbearable shriveling and greasy feeling pouring out of the video. That was a problem enough, but Jaeyoung lamented at Jaekyun's stupidity, who modeled the female protagonist's face on Chaeyeon. As I showed before, I would just implement survival or majestic things, but I don't know what kind of mentality was used to implement this kind of romance fantasy, but one thing was certain. With this, Jaekyun's reputation fell to the bottom.

“Chae Yeon! Let's report that! Who knows what ugly thoughts that filthy pervert might have had with you?”

“that's right! You can't just skip this! Perverts like that need to be thoroughly harpooned!”

As if determined to hang Jae-Gyun, they roar with a burning fighting spirit. And just in time, at that moment, as the compressed air of Lucid Dream was exhausted, the lid slowly began to open.

“...?”

And Jae-kyun, who appeared with an innocent expression as if he knew nothing in the pouring hideous atmosphere. But he soon found out because of the cries of accusation.

“Ooooh!”

“transformation!”

“dirty! Ugly pot of desire!”

“I’ve never been in a relationship because I was so cheesy!”

It means that his green college life is as expected.

* * *

Professor Kim Tae-Hoon, who hurriedly finished class and dismissed his seat due to the madness of the students who tried to hang and burn Jae-Gyun. He was talking with an Arcadia employee with a serious face in an empty classroom after everyone had left.

“Is the level that Jaekyun showed me just now that high?”

Virtual reality integrated production machine Lucid Dream. Since nothing was known about the detailed data of the machine itself and its actual usability yet, Professor Kim Tae-hun couldn't help but ask questions about his shocking reaction.

“Are you great? Sure. If I hadn’t seen the data presented here, I would have doubted that the synchro rate was measured incorrectly.”

An employee holding the previously measured synchro rate result in both hands and shaking it. He enthusiastically explained to Professor Kim Tae-hun why this was so surprising, as if the word great was not enough.

“There is nothing wrong with Jaegyun’s synchro rate. 17%. It's a higher than average number, but it's still not enough to use Lucid Dream freely. By the way... such a person so smoothly implemented a story into a video and solved it again? This is an exceptional situation to the extent that we have to completely readjust the direction of the project we are currently pursuing.”

A project promoted by Arcadia Co., Ltd. An ultra-long-term project to carefully select those with high synchro rates and nurture them into talented people who will lead the virtual reality industry. However, the appearance of Jae-gyun was nothing short of showing them another possibility.

“Although the implementation rate of returning students is low compared to others. Compared to the people who work in our Arcadia design team, they show significantly lower efficiency.”

When given the same job, a person who processes 10 and a person who processes 100 will definitely show an incomparable efficiency gap. However, in the case of Jae-gyun, it was a little different.

“The amount of imagination this guy is trying to bring to life is... more than anyone I've ever seen. With a low synchro rate, the power of implementation that inevitably falls is being released with a tremendous amount of imagination. That's also really nonsensical.”

quantity over quality.

One of the graphs of Jaekyun printed on paper, as if to replace the lack of realization with an overwhelming amount, was sticking out by itself as if there was no ceiling. Professor Kim Tae-hoon did not know exactly how great that number was, but he could roughly guess it by watching his reaction.

“To be honest... even our chief designer couldn't imagine everything so perfectly and so instantaneously. If you're trying to make a story out of a perfect video like this... even if you spend all day working on it, it will take at least a week or two.”

“What do you mean...?”

A video of about 5 to 10 minutes. Of course, I thought that it would not be an easy task because it was full of liveliness enough to believe that even if it was a real scene taken with a camera, but the fact that even the chief designer had to sell out for two weeks, professor Kim Tae-hoon's face was dark. stained with astonishment

“Because of the atmosphere, I couldn't talk directly with the students before, but... After reporting the results, maybe an official proposal will come from the company... No, it probably will. When you see these results, the design team will roll their eyes and come back to school.”

“That means...”

Before Professor Kim Tae-hun finished his words, the staff member smiled strangely and said.

“Congratulations, Professor. It seems that Seomin University has the first special recruitment scholarship student from Arcadia Co., Ltd. for exchange and cooperation.”

* * *

Professor Kim Tae-hoon and Arcadia staff are talking about Jae-gyun's future.

Jaekyun sat across from Jaeyoung in the school cafeteria and slumped his face on the table with a miserable expression on his face.

“Jaeyoung.... Why am I so stupid?”

Jae-gyun asks with a face in a great sense of shame. In response to his question, Jaeyoung had so much to say, but suppressed all her desires with superhuman patience.

“Don’t worry about what other people think. The more you do that, the more strange it looks.”

“Haa..... Really, why did I do that? I’ll just make something normal.”

Jae-gyun, who has already been branded as a pervert, has his own ugly imaginations for Chae-yeon. In that fact, he put on a really miserable face and regretted and regretted the atrocities he had committed.

“Rather than that... is it true that you imagined the real Chaeyeon?”

To be honest, Jaeyoung was also curious. At that question, Jaekyun put on an indescribable expression and then nodded his head with a bitter face as if he had given up.

“....that's right.”

“Wow.....Real trash.....”

Jaekyun, who has become a real pervert who can't justify anything. Jaeyoung was speechless and unknowingly looked at Jaekyun with disgust at the fact that he created such a cheesy romance fantasy with the faces of the third person, not even a misunderstanding.

“Haa.....”

Looking at Jaeyoung's eyes, Jaekyun sighed deeply again with a dark face. Seeing his reaction, Jaeyoung asked with a worried face.

“Wouldn’t it be better for you to go and apologize to Chaeyeon? If you report this to the police and make a fuss about what you are doing, you think you could be in a very difficult situation?”

This advice was given because Chaeyeon's friends were already whispering something to Chaeyeon and plotting something. At those words, Jaekyun said with a dying face.

“I think I should too...”

“But...?”

Jaekyun hesitates as if he can't bear to speak. He hesitated for a while, then vomited out the unspeakable words as if in a sigh.

“Oh, I don’t know... Looking at Chaeyeon’s face right now, I feel ashamed and I’m going to go up to the school roof and jump off, so I can’t.”

And at that moment, someone from behind answered Jae-kyun's words.

“oh? Why are you embarrassed?”

“Chae Chae Chae Chae Yeon?!”

Jaekyun looked back with trembling eyes at the voice he had heard somewhere. When he saw Chae-yeon standing behind him with a bright smile, he almost fell from his chair in fright.

“You want to jump off the roof? Were you ashamed to talk to me like that?”

“uh? Ah... yes..... that's.....”

Jae-gyun, who was unable to say anything, trembling all over his body. Chaeyeon, who was looking at him blankly, smiled.

“Puff..... It’s cute too.”

“Yes....? Chae Yeon-ah, what did you just say...?”

“I don't care what other people say, don't worry about it. I don't think of you as a pervert who fantasizes strangely or as a nasty stalker.”

Chaeyeon's reaction was that she didn't care at all about her appearance. In response to her reaction, Jaeyoung began to seriously ponder whether that was cool or crazy. And her next words were even more impressive.

“And I will reject your confession. To be honest, the confession itself wasn't bad, so I was a little excited, but I still don't know anything about you properly.”

“what....?”

“what....?”

Recurrence of the shocked face. And Jaeyoung, who seemed even more shocked than that. Chaeyeon said with a strange smile to the two who were standing there blankly as if they had been hit by a petrochemical beam.

“After walking around with me a little longer and getting to know each other... Challenge me with a more colorful confession. Then I'll think about it again.”

And that day, Jaeyoung realized.

That there are so many people in this world with strange and unique tastes (?). And that there is a pair of straw sandals.
