Chapter 68 Regression Manual 068

Press (1)

Journalists in the free city of Lindell could not be called the press.

That was the conclusion Jeongyan and I came to.

Of course, there are many who want to hold a pen.

Freedom of the press was more than anyone in a democracy ever wanted.

Nevertheless, the reason why journalists can't write their own articles is probably obvious in Lindell, where there is already a social system.

T ra n sl a ted b y ｊpｍtl.c om ‘Because I'm scared.'

This continent is essentially a world dominated by force.

How many people die is common, and those who oppose a large guild will pay the price in some way.

Perhaps writing an article will be very cautious.

Not only should you defy the sovereignty of the sovereigns you speak of, but you should also worry a lot when writing articles about murder cases.

No one knows if a homicidal maniac who read the article will attack the media clan.

In fact, I was able to understand it from the first time I saw a newspaper sold in Lindell.

Even though there was nothing to be said as a knight, it was not an exaggeration. Tr an s l ate d by jpm tl .ｃ o m

At best, there were many announcements about various things, and even articles about what the head of a large guild had eaten for breakfast.

Of course, you are feeling some sense of self-esteem.

Because that's what journalists do.

If you ask me how many people work professionally, I won't be able to answer, but what I want is not a true journalist.

Rather, he is the opposite.

Money is urgent.

Selfish.

The one who can roll the dice.

It was a type of journalist, commonly referred to as a famine, who needed to be able to follow the times.

In fact, the background surrounding them now is not bad.

Unlike what Lindell used to look like, the system is getting somewhat more organized now.

If there was only hunting for a way to live, it would be different now.

People who were relaxed were enjoying cultural life and there were actually more guilds investing in restaurants and theaters.

For a large guild or a medium-sized guild, there has been a situation that requires the public to be aware of.

T rans lat ed b y Ｊp ｍ tl.ｃ oｍ You might say you're lucky in some ways.

If I had fallen when this place was in the beginning, I wouldn't have even thought of this direction.

People are fundamentally very interested in other people's stories.

Simply put, we need content that soothes people's boredom.

Given the number of people gathered inside, I had no choice but to realize that there were many people who empathized with my thoughts.

No, I'm sure there's a lot of gathering.

'Cause this is what they eat.

“Brother, I think most of you are here. ”

“Oh, really? ”

“Yes, except for a few minutes. What do you want to do?" ”

“Leave it alone. I'm going to follow you if this works out anyway. Thanks a lot more than that, White. ”

“Oh, no. ”

“I'll make it up to you when this is all over. ”

“Yes!”

I was able to do this much in a short period of time because of Jungyan's help.

I kissed my lips a little, then went into the room, and the crowds caught my attention. Transl at ed by ｊp ｍ tl.ｃoｍ

Obviously, I thought it was noisy until I went in, but it was a little funny to see that it was quiet.

Because I thought they were watching me.

However, there is no way you can make a tea.

I smiled a little and greeted him first.

“Good to see you all. ”

“Ah... nice to meet you. ”

“My name is Kyung-kyung Kim from Lindell Ilbo. ”

“Very nice to meet you. This is Lee Young from the Blue Guild. ”

I'm more curious about how much you'll give them than why you've gathered them.

This should be the only way they're making money in Lindel, so it shouldn't be a crowd.

I said hello and stuff.

After a nice meal, I could see the brightening of their faces.

It's good to get to the point right away, but we definitely need this time.

“Of course, I gathered you because I wanted you to write a small article. ”

“I expected it roughly, but I knew it. Hahaha. Of course I should use it. Isn't this the blue party that's been running on top stock prices lately? Rather, I'm glad we were able to promote it. ” Tra nsl at ed b y ｊpｍt l.com

‘Publicity sucks. ’

In fact, the promotional effect is lacking even if you publish an article.

Their knights had no influence whatsoever.

“I heard that only four of you have successfully broken through the Tutorial Dungeon in the shortest time possible and completed the Scare Garden raid. It's going to be a good story. ”

Not a good sauce, of course.

You don't need to read an article to know that a party attacked a dungeon.

In fact, it would be more effective for the guild to promote itself.

“Hahahahahaha. Just tell me how to write it, and I'll use it as much as I can." ”

The current address of the people who are leading Lindell's press.

Of course, I don't dislike it. That's the line I wanted to hear the most.

“Actually, the article I want you to write is a little different from what you think it is. ”

“Yes?”

“I want you to write an article for the Black Swan about a woman named Jeong Yu Ra. The exact content is…. ”

Slowly. Very slowly, I started explaining the article.

No additional content or flesh was added.

I'm just talking about the whole thing in the dungeon.

However, their expressions were getting crumpled up.

That's a normal reaction.

I couldn't say it out loud, but I can see what I'm thinking.

I'm not a suicidal person. ’

or.

‘I still want to live. ’

It would be right to call it that.

“It doesn't matter if you just write what's there. Of course, putting on weight is your freedom. Personally, I'd appreciate a little more stimulation. because the public seems to like a stimulating article. Of course, we will take care of Gold without any inconvenience. ”

“ ……. ”

“ ……. ”

It is natural for the child to be quiet.

This is the expected response.

“It's going to be hard…. ”

“Yes?”

“I don't think it's going to be easy to write a story like that. I understand what you're asking me to write this article for... but it seems a little... ”

“I'm not asking you to write an article for the Black Swan. He focuses more on refined oil than on the Black Swan... ”

“Even if it is.... ”

I can't help but think of exchanging eyes with each other.

More and more people keep avoiding the answer or are uncomfortable being here.

Perhaps if I wasn't the Blue Lee Young-young, some would have said, "Don't bullshit me," and then left.

“I know what you're worried about. ”

“Yes?”

“It's probably safe. I know you're probably afraid of retaliation. But don't worry. I'm not saying that for no reason either. This is not what I meant.... ”

“Ah.”

“Cha Hee means. ”

Of course you're lying.

“I understand you'll still be afraid. Not only the Black Swan, but also the refined oil. As long as the Queen of Mercy is guarding us, I know it's hard to decide. ”

“ ……. ”

“If you're going to write an article, you're going to write it under your real name. ”

“Ah…. ”

“I'm sure some of you are expecting wavelengths when the knights go out. Either way, writing an article that criticizes a large guild will be quite disruptive. People will wonder why this happened. The sales rate will go up to nothing compared to before, and you'll be able to touch a lot of gold coins. ”

“The problem with Doubloons.... ”

“The more people who read the articles, the safer you'll be. The more articles or columns containing your name are sold, the more influential you will be. ”

There are those who understand.

Yes, of course.

There must have been people on Earth who worked in the press.

“Just because they have power doesn't mean they don't notice the public. The eyes of the large guild are also important. You cannot act recklessly as much as you have to protect. I'm sure you all know that. There's a certain social system already in Lindell. The days of mere hunting and dungeon are behind us. ”

An understandable expression.

However, it was not a face that made me happy.

“No matter how much I say it, I'm a little nervous. No, frankly, it's very uncomfortable to be here. ”

“The Red Mercenaries are behind you. Of course there's nothing to be afraid of. Cha Hee Ra considered this matter and decided. ”

“But the knight by his real name... ”

“That's the important part. If you are wrong, it will be difficult to avoid blame from the position of the Black Swan Guild. Yes, of course. ”

The slightly anxious reporters' faces flashed before their eyes.

Probably

It was their position to be punished by the wind.

It's obvious what you're worried about.

Even if the Red Mercenaries are watching your back, writing a huge Guild rebel article will scare you.

After a short sigh, he immediately said.

“Why haven't the media in Lindell been doing a good job? ”

“So... retaliation... ”

“Yes, of course you were afraid of retaliation. That's why you've been writing sub-standard articles. Of course, I'm not denying or insulting what you've been doing. We had no choice. because I understand that this continent is returning to the logic of power, and that it's not going to be easy to write a story carelessly. ”

“Yes.”

“But that's not the answer. ”

“Yes?”

“It's not right that many media are not working properly because of the continents that are returning to the logic of power. That doesn't make sense. ”

“ ……. ”

“The main reason you haven't set a route is because Now, if you're a journalist on Earth, you can understand what I'm saying. It's important that the media doesn't know where to go. Which side do you want to stand on? It's about which side you're on. Politics, for example, is as important as standing in a ruling party or standing in a ruling party. And that's a tremendous force for the media to work in this context. ”

“Are you telling me to take the blue and red mercenary routes? ”

“Yes, of course. Just write the article we need. The media can't be completely free. You only need half free. Half. You can criticize the enemies of the Blue and Red Mercenaries and defend us. You can move the public. If you go the other way, you won't be penalized. You can choose the Black Swan or go that way if you have a route to the other forces. Of course, sometimes you may be threatened with life. External pressure will be routine. But that's perfectly natural for those who live in Lindell. Those who enter the dungeon, those on the front line, are all risking their lives. ”

“Ah……. ”

“And as much as you're threatened, you can take something even bigger. ”

“That's... ”

“Doubloons.”

“ ……. ”

“And..."

“ ……. ”

“Power.”

Of course, they will not have power.

But I can make you think that.

Between those who nod dazed, I bow my head again and open my mouth.

“Thank you so much for being with us. ”
