Episode 255. Dantalian (1)
There is a fall in emotions.
The happier you are, the greater the unhappiness you feel when you fall into the abyss.
A person who lived on cup noodles every day would happily eat triangular gimbap, but to someone who drank a million won worth of wine according to their mood, a 2,000 won can of beer would be no different from rat pee.
In that sense, Yuri Maximov’s childhood happiness could not be regarded as luck.
It was because I was so happy that it became even more miserable after that.
Yuri Maximoff remembered three keywords about his childhood and beyond.
frequent moves.
parting with friends.
A father who is always drunk and a mother who cries.
Her father, Vladimir Maximov, was a fairly capable businessman.
Vladimir, a game developer-turned-entrepreneur, was praised for having an eye for choosing games with excellent management skills and financial sense.
The evaluation is not wrong, and in fact, his company has been on the rise.
The home was also peaceful.
But there was just one thing he lacked.
luck.
Vladimir Maximov’s company fell under the radar of notorious Wall Street corporate hunter Carl Ada.
His method was simple.
Become the largest shareholder of the target company and intervene in the management of the company.
It is a way to improve earnings in the short term and increase the stock dividend rate.
The large-scale restructuring business unit sale and merger that took place in the process completely ruined Vladimir Maximov, who was building a reputation as an emerging conglomerate.
Vladimir’s connections were cut from the wholesale industry.
The positions filled by those who were cut off were replaced by figures hostile to Vladimir, who pursued immediate profits as collateral for the future of the company.
Vladimir resisted.
But that didn’t stop Carl Ada.
The sword Ada severely cut off Vladimir’s limbs as he fought.
Carl Ada, which raised the stock price, sold stock to an IT company.
The IT company was only interested in the signboard of the Vladimir company.
Vladimir Maximov lost his company overnight and went into debt.
Vladimir Maximov did not give up and tried to make a comeback.
It was from that moment on that the existence of a father became a monster to Yuri Maximoff.
Vladimir Maximov never forgot the glory and wealth he once enjoyed and would do anything to get it back.
okay.
Even if it means selling my wife and daughter.
“I will accept your offer.”
“You did well.”
Vladimir Maximov has signed a contract with Dantalian.
Vladimir Maximoff, reborn as James Hop, founded a company and made games.
The very game that was introduced to the world as ‘Dantalian’ and hit an unprecedented hit.
Yuri Maximov was proof of the contract between Vladimir Maximov and Dantalian.
With as much trust as he could, the father gave Dantalian his wife and daughter as test subjects.
After one failure, Dantalian succeeded in connecting the dimensional labyrinth and the earth through the second attempt.
That’s how his mother died, and Yuri Maximoff became the only Earthling player who was not a user of the game ‘Dantalian’.
Level 1 of the dimensional labyrinth.
“You survived.”
After struggling with the Skeleton Soldier, Yuri Maximoff finally reached the door and met Dantalian, the owner of the floor.
“Yuri Maximov. All the answers you want are above. Climb to the top of the labyrinth and claim everything!”
she asked Dantalian.
“Tell me one thing.”
“All answers... ... .”
“You can’t kill my dad, can you? Because that was the contract.”
“... ... .”
“Is Daddy doing well?”
Dantalian laughed.
Yuri Maximoff saw that smile and decided to climb the labyrinth.
Fortunately, she had a talent.
He became an S-rank player, created the only A-rank 1-man clan, and even received the sponsorship of the second-rank demon king Agares.
But that was it.
The clearing of the labyrinth was constantly delayed in front of other players’ disputes over rights.
The dimensional labyrinth was too tough for Yuri Maximoff to navigate alone.
The moment she was feeling her limit, Yoon Taeyang appeared.
Yuri Maximoff immediately recognized Taeyang Yoon the moment he appeared at the integrated shelter.
The downfall of the King of Fist began with the open beta of Dantalian, a virtual reality game.
‘Not enough.’
Consciousness expands further.
Idea has begun to go beyond the ‘weapon’ category.
Shield Armor Stone Hammer Glasses Chair... ... .
Yuri Maximov, who had been running for a while, muttered involuntarily.
“found.”
Yuri Maximoff finally stood in front of an object.
It was a large pocket watch.
Yuri Maximoff stretched out his hand towards his watch as if possessed.
She instinctively realized what a watch was.
A supreme Noble Phantasm that is enslaved to a part of the sun’s divinity even with just a replica.
OOPArt that allows you to get out of the time line of the world you belong to just by owning it.
It was ‘The Greatest Machinery’.
Click.
Yuri Maximov picked up the pocket watch.
and.
Parching.
The world called ‘idea’ collapsed.
Augmented reality appeared on Yuri Maximoff’s retinas.
[Player Yuri Maximoff has reached the level of authority through access to Skill: Idea.] [
Obtained Authority: The Greatest Machinery.]
[Skill: Access to Idea: Access to Authority: Great It is incorporated into The Greatest Machinery.]
Fallen angel Lucifer’s powerful ‘Morning Star’ sheds beautiful light, and The Greatest Machinery indifferently represents the flow of time.
Yuri Maximov’s spirit accelerated.
It was not accelerated by concentration.
Kiririririk.
The white hand of Yuri Maximoff turned the mainspring of the great mechanism.
direction... ... right.
[The mainspring of The Greatest Machinery winds up quickly.]
Click.
A small grinding sound is heard.
Yuri Maximoff knew instinctively.
‘This is the first step.’
1st stage 3x acceleration.
Of course, this isn’t enough.
Click.
2nd stage 6x acceleration.
Excessive.
click click.
Step 3 12x.
Step 4 36 times.
The limit of the fast-forward buff that Taeyang Yoon used.
Yuri Maximov did not stop his hand.
Kiriric.
With a little resistance, the mainspring stopped again.
and.
Tick tock tock tock.
[Player Yuri Maximoff is given a 5-level fast-forward buff.]
5th level.
108x acceleration.
There was no need to worry about being able to handle it.
It’s different from the imitations that went around in the dimensional labyrinth.
There is no such thing as a cooldown of 12 hours.
There is no imperfection that only accelerates the body.
‘If this is it.’
Maybe you can.
sereung.
Yuri Maximoff pulled out the Holy Sword Lucifer’s morning star.
Tick tock tock tock.
The moment the leather wrapped around the handle wrapped perfectly around her hand, the gate spit out her body.
“... ... !”
Towards the existence of Yuri Maximoff who put emphasis on human misfortune.
Yuri Maximov swung his sword.
