The Novelist Who Leapt Through Time Episode 170

「9U-na said. Surrounded by angry sailors, he took a step forward like a criminal in front of a jury, hiding the boy who was surrounding him behind him.

And the shouts of the angry crowd, which seemed like they were going to guillotine the tyrant at any moment, died down in an instant with a single word from the little android girl.

“… … “I know I’m not human.”

“… … ”

‘Androids are humans’. The entire galaxy was stained with blood to write down this one word. Therefore, one word from 9U-na had the power to silence the sailors on the verge of mutiny.

Destruction carries authority. It was always like that. However, what 9U-na destroyed this time was not the mob’s skull, but just common sense.

“Nine!”

As always, the boy defended the android with pure eyes. Those eyes contained a clear attitude that he thought you were a person.

However, Android denied this.

“How can a piece of metal from a factory, not a woman’s stomach, be human? Our human rights are the result of political compromise achieved through general strikes and rebellions. And politics cannot change its essence. okay. “I’m not a person.”

Ironically, the people who rose up against the oppression of the machine-tyrant, seeing the android declaring that she was not human, thought she was more human than ever.

“So understand. I tried my best, but how could I satisfy you? I don’t know hunger because I don’t eat, I don’t know the feeling of being beaten because I don’t have pain, I don’t know the humiliation of being dominated because I don’t have pride, and I don’t know the misery of having to sleep next to a pile of excrement because I don’t poop. I know it in my head, but I can’t empathize with it. So, I couldn’t sympathize with your story and ignored it for the sake of efficiency. “I apologize.”

It was a very confident attitude for a dictator who was on the verge of being ousted. However, the crowd, who had reached the brink of mutiny on board, gradually calmed down their anger as they watched the scene.

For the first time, this android felt like a human.

In the midst of such implicit closing arguments, 9U-na argued for a clear conclusion with the coolness of a machine intelligence.

“But our route was not wrong. I guarantee the abilities of our ‘navigators’. It is not the result of your soft brain, which is swayed by emotions and broken by fear, but by my intelligence, which always has uniform performance. Of course, if you want to relieve your anger by destroying my circuit with a hammer, I won’t stop you. But hurting this boy is unacceptable. It’s not the route that’s wrong. This capricious, terrible… “Space.”

Therefore, the girl said.

The faith passed down to the boy.

“So trust me one more time. everyone.”

“… … ”

“We can find the stars.”」

EP 10 – Starry Sky

Self-introduction is like a Pokemon.

Although it may seem easy at first glance, it becomes infinitely deeper if you dig into it in detail. The Kumiji Jukdori, who are well-versed in eugenics and meta-dreams, prove this.

In any case, the act of ‘introducing yourself’ includes several questions, such as what is your name, what are your hobbies, where are you affiliated, etc…

The long list ultimately comes down to where does human identity come from?

It’s a question that makes my head hurt just hearing it, but ‘self-introduction’ comes up in life more often than you think.

If you forget about it, it comes back and causes you a lot of headaches.

Gu Yuna was no exception.

“Would you like to introduce yourself?”

“… … hmm.”

If it had been Gu Yuna as usual, she would have given a short answer, ‘Gu Yuna.’ and embarrassed the person in front of her.

If she had been asked to explain in more detail, she would have once again confused those around her with the answer, ‘It’s Yuna, not Yoona.’

Perhaps that was also a way of introducing what kind of person Gu Yuna was, but today’s Gu Yuna did not show the same attitude as usual – that is, aggressive, selfish, narcissistic, hard, petulant, and cyborg-like.

Gu Yuna’s eyes looked towards that ‘reason’ for a long time.

Glancing-

What made Gu Yuna, who is self-reliant on children, proud of the strong, and destroys the weak, nervous, was none other than the camera angle that was looking at her from 1 meter 30 centimeters in front.

However, the reason Gu Yuna noticed was not because the red light came on indicating that she was ‘filming’, but because the writer was nagging her to please, please, please, be careful how she behaved in front of that camera.

“Hello, this is Gu Yuna. “I am a third year student at Baekhak Arts Middle School.”

Gu Yuna showed special mercy and spoke to me like an ‘ordinary person’. If a writer or Gu Hak-Jun had seen her, she would have been so hung up on that grace that her tears would have flowed.

However, the broadcasting station interviewer, who is a ‘non-expert’, did not notice the man’s overflowing grace and easily moved on to the next question.

Indeed, it was as if Yang Min, who could not even recognize his opponent’s level, was walking a tightrope in front of a strong expert without even realizing that his life was on the line.

However, fortunately, according to the current astronomical predictions, the evil starlight of the Heavenly Death Star has faded and Gu Yuna’s murderous heart has not been shaken.

Gu Yuna showed a miracle by completing the interview like an ‘ordinary person’.

“Ah, thank you so much for your time today, Student Gu Yuna! “I hope to see you at the broadcasting station next time.”

“Thank you, goodbye.”

Since Gu Yuna’s interview was conducted under a green zelkova tree in the playground of Baekhak Arts Middle School, there were many students snooping around during lunch break.

Most of the children came out to see the broadcasting station vehicle and the pretty reporter sister who came to school, but Moon Chang and the children who were caught in the middle seemed to be looking at a monster imitating a human with a blank look on their faces.

– Get away now! That’s not a person, it’s something that imitates a person… !

Although Moonchang and the kids were warning them with their facial expressions and looks like they were the first to die in a horror movie, the kids at Baekhakye Middle School were captivated by her cute appearance and ended up approaching Gu Yuna.

As soon as the broadcasting station vehicle and reporters left, the onlookers surrounding them immediately turned into fans.

The most courageous child was the first to speak to Yuna Gu.

“excuse me… hi? “You did a really good interview.”

Gu Yuna did not single out the other person with the question ‘You, who?’ as usual.

It was because he did not listen to the writer’s advice to be careful about his behavior for the time being.

So, I hesitated about what answer to choose, but the silence naturally became a non-verbal answer that meant, ‘Hey, you bastard, reveal your identity.’

“ah! I am Yebin Kim, a third-year piano major… that… I really enjoyed reading the book… ”

A book was suddenly thrust in front of Gu Yuna.

‘The starry sky’.

It was a book with the author’s name and his own name written on it.

“Can you give me an autograph… ?”

“… … ”

Gu Yuna was silent for a very long time.

This was because there was no appropriate answer for this situation in the database.

* * *

Gu Yuna, 3rd grade at Baekhak Arts Middle School.

Like other teenagers around this time, Gu Yuna used the title ‘3rd grader at Baekhak Arts Middle School’ to introduce herself.

However, like other teenagers, their school peer group was not the center of their relationships and world.

I just didn’t have the right words.

“… … ”

However, Gu Yu-na is not the type of person who returns ‘appropriate but hollow and harsh answers’ when she introduces herself. I don’t ignore anything that is said, and I don’t have the social skills to do so.

Self-introduction is a question about identity. It is an ambiguous area that is difficult to express in words. And Gu Yu-na is a person who is into literature and the study of expressing ambiguity in refined language.

Therefore, Gu Yuna’s identity is firm.

Novelist, Gu Yuna.

This is something I want to say proudly someday.

In other words, I can’t say anything right now.

In Gu Yuna’s opinion, the title ‘novelist’ was something she had not yet earned.

This is because the ‘novelists’ that Gu Yu-na knew were Gu Hak-jun, Gu Yu-bin, and writers.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to call himself a ‘novelist’ when he could not even master the language used by ordinary people.

On the contrary, if he already called himself a novelist, it would be to tarnish the goal he had set. For Gu Yuna, being a novelist was like a pure gold trophy to be won at the end of a long staircase.

Therefore, for Gu Yuna, ‘novelist’ is not a job.

It was close to a concept that had some meaning.

The day when Gu Yuna becomes a ‘novelist’ is the day to continue the work of her great father, the day to catch up with her older sister who monopolized her mother’s love, and the day to master the teachings of her respected friend…

and…

– This… This is not… It’s not normal…

– Honey, calm down.

– I told my sister that I was playing a prank…

– honey. The kid listens.

– Hmm, huh… It’s abnormal. It’s abnormal. This child should be sent to a mental hospital, not to school…

– hey! Min Chae-won!

It was a day that completely refuted his mother’s claim that he was a mental patient who needed to be sent to the hospital.

Gu Yuna’s brilliant intelligence allows her to clearly remember events from her childhood.

It literally means ‘clearly.’ If you close your eyes right now, you can replay the events of that day and the things you did as clearly as a video.

Therefore, Gu Yuna cannot yet refute what her mother said that day. The scale in Gu Yuna’s heart is ruthless, wise, and fair.

And the scale is tilted towards the mother, not the manger. The judge says, ‘Guyuna’s existence is clearly abnormal.’

Therefore, Gu Yuna’s life was a process from ‘abnormal’ to ‘normal’.

Yuna Gu’s literature was about learning the language, way of thinking, and mind of ‘normal people’.

So the day you become a ‘novelist’ must come in a grand way.

There was great applause, angels blew trumpets, you were surrounded by family and friends, and you had to be congratulated on having finally become a normal person, a human being and not a monster.

That’s how he had to become a novelist.

But that day came so suddenly and in vain.

“congratulations.”

“… … ”

“Are you a good novelist now?”

Gu Yubin, smiling brightly, held out her smartphone.

This was the word that appeared most frequently in the Internet world beyond the screen.

‘Genius novelist Gu Yuna’.

The world was already calling Yuna Gu a ‘novelist.’

“… … under.”

But Gu Yuna is neither a genius nor a novelist.

But the world says so. Therefore, Gu Yuna was in an ‘abnormal’ position, claiming that she was the only one who was contradicting the world.

And the feeling that Gu Yuna felt when put in that situation was something that Gu Yuna hated very much.

So, Gu Yu-na swung her front paw like a nimble cat and knocked the cell phone out of Gu Yu-bin’s hand, then got up from the table and went back to her room in a frustrated manner.

“Hey! Manger! “The screen is broken!”

Leaving behind Gu Yubin’s screams, Gu Yuna locked the door and snuggled into the blanket.

And I endured the feeling of isolation, as if I had been dropped into a strange world.

After the publication of the novel ‘The Starry Sky’, Gu Yuna’s world turned 180 degrees.

The book went through many complex processes beyond Gu Yuna’s reach, and then quickly began to be sold all over the world. Korea, Japan, America and even Europe.

Therefore, the social reputation of the human being ‘Guyuna’ was arbitrarily agreed upon and spread by people in places beyond the reach of Guyuna, and soon became a fait accompli.

The fait accompli is that ‘Gu Yuna is a genius novelist who can be called the second generation of writers.’

“… … ”

I cannot agree.

Gu Yuna did not write this novel to make money, nor did she write this novel to become famous.

The ‘starry sky’ had a clear purpose. Unless that purpose is achieved, the novel is a failure.

* * *

“Shall we go.”

“really?!”

It was for this reason that Gu Yuna willingly joined the trip to America.

Gu Yuna’s eyes are those of a writer who tells us what to be careful about in America.

It was heading beyond.
