6. Please Live Quietly (Side Story)
Side story 1. The original sin of possession
Possession is itself an original sin.
A long time ago, when Akashiu was in first grade, this was what Jo Yujin said. The fundamental reason why she caused discord with her family was that she was not the real Jo Yu-jin, but someone who possessed Jo Yu-jin’s body.
And Akashiu added, that original sin cannot be washed away by anything. What if he had entered the novel in his original body like himself? Otherwise, when he took someone else’s body, he had already committed an irreversible sin.
But Siwoo didn’t think so.
Because he definitely had a positive influence on everyone.
The person Siwoo possessed was a man who attempted suicide. He was called a bastard outside the family, and he was called a disgrace to the family within the family.
He was always ignored by his family and was a person who had learned nothing and achieved nothing until he was in his mid-20s. He was a man who was always full of anger and acted viciously, trying hard to drag others down into the same pit as himself.
He was a person who should have died quietly.
Siwoo achieved many things by possessing this man.
He learned etiquette from Prince Siwoo and developed a neat demeanor. He acquired the attitude of a nobleman with the help of Baron Siu. He apologized for the mistakes he made before being possessed and cleared away all of his past karma.
Siwoo’s efforts did not just end there. Siwoo faithfully learned the magic of this world and became a member of the 6th circle, and he did not neglect to improve his studies. He faithfully cared for the people in his household and helped his brothers and sisters in trouble. He used his knowledge from the original work to contribute to the estate, made a mark on the imperial family by rescuing a princess in crisis, and even received advice from Lord Siu Wu and advised her father on the affairs of the estate.
That effort recently paid off. Siwoo inherited the estate even though his father was still alive, and the estate recently became a city with the highest level of prosperity. Talents drawn from all over the world assisted Si-woo, and the knowledge coming from Si-woo became reality in the territory and led the future of the empire. Through this fiefdom, Siwoo provided countless aids to his family and achieved the revival of the family that his father had once so tiredly emphasized.
Only 10 years. It took Siwoo only 10 years to get here.
Of course, the process was not always smooth. There were incidents that were not in the original, such as his older brother appearing as a villain, and the original protagonist also put him in danger.
However, Siwoo eventually overcame it all and survived to come to this place.
Isn’t this enough to confidently shout out?
My possession can never be the original sin. I was the one who demonstrated proper possession.
To completely prove it, Siwoo opened the huge stone gate.
That is the space where Siwoo’s father will spend the last days of his life.
It was a majestic sanctuary that would prove him right.

“… Father.”
In a room where candles give off soft light.
The old man lying on the bed turned his head and looked at his youngest son.
The son was once a child who was addicted to alcohol and was considered a disgrace to the family.
Also, he was a child who changed his mind one day and revived the family called the Setting Sun.
“They said it was useless to raise children, but your older brothers aren’t coming.”
“… That.”
Siugai, who was about to say something, gritted his teeth and lowered his head.
However, since he already knew what was going to happen next, he changed the topic without hesitation.
“It’s okay since you came. Also like this. It’s nice to see… Cough.”
“… “I kept my promise.”
Originally, it was customary for titles and territories to be inherited only after the death of the head of the family, but he boldly broke that rule.
He bequeathed titles and estates at an early age, and made a promise to his youngest son.
A promise to make this family the best family in the world.
“Okay… I kept my promise…”
He looked around with blurry eyes.
In the long hallway outside the door, countless knights were lined up without a trace.
Knights with power comparable to that of the Empire.
It was too unrealistic to be a single family’s power, and it was also a sight he had dreamed of.
It has come true, and it must be heartbreaking.
Why is it so empty?
“… “I have lived my whole life prioritizing the life of the head of the family over that of my father.”
It was like that at one time. The days when I clung to the family’s affairs because I could not endure the decline of my family.
That may have been the reason why the youngest son became a bastard. Because he was negligent as his father, there were many things he could not take care of and many things he missed.
And now that he thinks about it, his son wasn’t the only one who went astray at that time.
“Family and matriarch. “Which of the two will you give priority to?”
Siwoo answered his question indifferently.
“Shouldn’t we prioritize the lives of our families? As the head of the family and lord, there are many more people for whom I am responsible. “My family is fully understanding.”
“Yeah, I thought that too once…”
He was distracted by that thought.
So, I ended up making a really terrible mistake.
“So I thought. As the head of the family, I can tolerate anything for the sake of the family… Even if the devil took his son’s body. ”
“…”
“Do you really think you didn’t feel anything strange? “I, my family members, are idiots so I would have believed that excuse.”
“Father, I-“
“Shut up!”
A loud roar echoed throughout the room.
But when he actually shouted, he looked extremely weak.
“Please… “Please don’t call me father with your mouth.”
“…”
“I thought so at one time. I don’t mind if it’s for the family. But after realizing my dream… Only a empty heart remains. “I found out too late what was really important.”
“…”
“My son has been a bright child since he was young. He was a child who had a pure smile and knew how to be cute, and even though he must have been lonely because he was the youngest, he steadfastly said that he was okay. Now that I think about it, I was really indifferent. Of course he believed there would be no problem.“But that doesn’t mean it’s really okay.”
“…”
“Yeah, maybe it’s a good thing for him. He was a child who always wanted to run away from reality…”
“… I am.”
“So. “I ask this as the father of my son.”
You.
No, you are.
Who are you?
With those words, the man stopped breathing.

-Jo Yong-si-woo: No, what kind of underground city are we talking about this time?
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Really, why do incidents like this keep happening?
-Quiet Siwoo: There is never a quiet day.
-Akashiu: If you’re going to mess with it, you shouldn’t have possessed the main character.
-Jo Yong Si-woo: No.
From Noble mtl dot com
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Ah, but there are two main characters nearby, so why are you so peaceful?
-Akashiu: Because the original work is so f*cking peaceful.
-Jo Yong-si-woo: Ha life
-Akashiu: But it’s not all quiet here either hahahaha.
-Aka Siu: Jo Yu-jin seems anxious these days, but I’m keeping an eye on him.
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Please make something happen.
-Akashiu: Yeah no.

-SF Siwoo: New features added to chat room
-SF Siwoo: Strictly speaking, it is not a new function, but an existing function was discovered.
-SF Siwoo: If you cover the chat window like coating your body, you can convert all of your physical activity into data and send it to the chat room. It can be seen as an extreme evolution of the original idea of sending photos or videos through a chat window.
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Oh
-Jo Yong-si-woo: But didn’t you originally understand the physical structure by watching the video? I optimized my body with that.
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Is there anything that changes if you do that?
-SF Siwoo: Yes
-SF Siwoo: According to the spiritual ability routine we developed, if you use any number of spiritual abilities, whether magic or martial arts, and report your physical activity while using them, you can calculate the results and analyze your soul.
-Juju Siwoo: crazy
-Juju Siwoo: No, even at the level of a f*cking master, you can artificially reproduce the impossible?
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Is it that great?
-Jo Yong Si-woo: Honestly, I still don’t know.
-Jusul Siwoo: ㅇㅇ It’s so f*cking amazing.
-Jusul Siwoo: That’s the same as drawing a weather map of the entire Earth for the next 10 years using the brief breeze that comes in when you open the window in the morning.
-Shaman Siwoo: No matter how great the shaman is, the soul is an area that is completely unpredictable, with only physical reactions. How great is this civilization?
-SF Siwoo: Oh, not that much.
-SF Siwoo: When did you start with chaos theory? It’s been hundreds of millions of years since it was conquered.
-Juju Siwoo: Ah
-Juju Siwoo: It’s a real SF f*cking scam.
-SF Siwoo: Anyway, if you analyze your soul, you can find out things like your psychic aptitude, and whether there were any problems while you were possessed.You can also see
-SF Siwoo: In particular, among them, there are people like Akashiu who are in special circles and there are people who are just ordinary circles, and I think we can clearly identify that as well.
-Juju Siwoo: ㅇㅋㅇㅋ
-Jusul Siwoo: I’ll send it to you first.
*
-SF Siwoo: I checked everything you sent me.
-SF Siwoo: Hwasan Siwoo, you are perfect for the volcano wave.
-SF Siwoo: For Jongnam Siwoo, the Jongnam faction suits him well.
-Hwasan Siwoo: Ah hahahaha, I really need to bury my bones in the volcanic waves.
-Volcano Siu: volcano is my destiny
-Jong Nam Si-woo: Talking about Volcano is really upsetting.
-Hwasan Siwoo: Yes, I will shoot hellfire during the volcanic wave’s secret season~
-Jongnam Siwoo: Ugh
-War Siu: Me? Why don’t I give you the results?
-Jeon Si-woo: Don’t I have at least one psychic ability that suits me?
-SF Siwoo: You… Well, I’m watching it now…
– War Siwoo: Please give me the results quickly.
-SF Siwoo: No, this is… I just don’t have the aptitude?
-War Siu: ?
-SF Siwoo: I guess the soul itself was molded not to use spiritual powers? Of all the thousand of us, you are probably the most unfit for spiritual power.
-SF Siwoo: No, it’s not just between us, even if you look around the world, there’s no case worse than this. This is the level where the soul makes a decision and excludes spiritual power.
-Cheon Ma Si-woo: A poor bastard who doesn’t deserve a nickname♡ A weakling who can’t even fight in a war♡ Just change your nickname to say you’re last among a thousand people♡
– War Siu: …
– War Siu: Yes. That would be better.
[‘Zen Yuxiu’ changed his nickname to ‘Chen Yuxiu’.]

-Experiment Siwoo: But isn’t this soul analysis result too strange?
-Experiment Si-Woo: Not only do they all have different soul qualities, but how can it be that the spiritual abilities they have learned are the best fit for them?
-Experiment Siwoo: Is this possible by coincidence?
-SF Siwoo: It’s not impossible at all… It’s definitely strange
-SF Siwoo: In the first place, since the case of possession itself is different from the general case, there are too many guesses. Still, I have a few hypotheses.
-Experiment: When the soul is possessed from the beginning in an environment suitable for its aptitude. What if the soul changes depending on the environment of possession, or if there is an error in the observation process?
-SF Siwoo: ㅇㅇ. A total of four, including that there may be an impact due to the presence of the chat window.
-Experiment Siwoo: Wow… Is it possible to solve this?
-SF Siwoo: I don’t know. Still, I have to explore as much as I can.
-Makbo Siu: But why are things with different soul qualities just overlooked?
-Makbo Siu: Isn’t this the most important thing?
-Makbo Siu: Didn’t we originally have one soul?
– Jusul Siwoo: If you put it that way, it would be impossible to split into a thousand people like this.
-Jusul Siwoo: That’s just a problem that can’t be answered no matter what we do at the current level.
-Makbo Siu: I feel too uncomfortable to just pass it over like that.
-Makbo Siu: Is there anyone in the chat room right now who is good at handling souls?
-Juju Siwoo: The soul is such an advanced course that it won’t be easy, right? It’s a shame, but I do it a little bit.
-Makbo Siu: Then you should raise your level quickly.
-Shaman Siwoo: There is no answer to this even if you become a great shaman.
-Makbo Siu: Then you can take it one level further. Up to 8th class
-Soul Siege: It would be faster for London Siege to defeat Cthulhu.
-Makbo Siu: Ah hahahaha

-Fishing Village Siu: …
