Episode 391 Epilogue.
Pain!
Fate + people.
It refers to people who risked their lives on Fate, who regretted the end of Fate’s service more than anyone else, and who even complained of aftereffects after Fate’s service ended and lived lives close to ruin.
“You really didn’t stop working hard.”
The days when I struggled not to fall into pain! The past six months passed through my mind like a flash of light.
Fate was forced to quit, but he couldn’t stop his physical training.
Ji-won Lee ran on the treadmill every morning, harassed by the chatter of Min Seok-ho, executive director of Yukdugi.
“It’s nice to see you training diligently.”
Is it only Min Seok-ho?
At some point, Man-seok Jeong, the chairman of Yuktugi, also participated in the morning exercise and talked non-stop.
Although Jiwon Lee found them a bit burdensome, he didn’t dislike them.
That’s because the topic of conversation between the three was limited to ‘Fate Alive’!
The official sequel to Fate!
The explanation of Fate Alive could have been replaced by an interview with game master Kim Seong-cheol, who is harassed by broadcasters every day.
The host asked with sparkling eyes.
-What viewers will be most curious about is what has changed.
I would like to ask this question on behalf of viewers and players. What exactly have changed, GM Seongcheol Kim?
-As it is a sequel to Fate, the worldview of Fate Alive is inherited directly from Fate. The Fate World that players saved through sacrifice.
Of course, we are working to improve the systematic aspects that have been pointed out.
Fate’s problem was clear.
Monsters, fields that harm the game balance, and even the existence of hidden classes.
Seongcheol Kim clenched his fist as if he was confident.
-We will create a game that everyone can be satisfied with!
-for a moment! Wait a minute, GM. If we are to inherit Fate’s worldview, there is one question we cannot help but ask.
In Mage, how do you plan to compensate the players for their sacrifices that saved Fate World?
A very realistic question.
It was indeed an issue that had to be addressed.
The sudden termination of the service was no different from the evaporation of the goods the players owned.
In fact, Mage was caught up in a class action lawsuit from several players.
Kim Seong-cheol made a serious expression as if he had expected it.
-...We plan to provide reasonable perks to the heroes of Fate World.
-Text special?!
-All players’ activity records are stored on the Mage server. We plan to use the records to provide heroes with appropriate perks based on their performance.
Glitter!
The host’s eyes become even brighter. She asked a question that caught everyone.
-Can you tell me a little bit about what that perk is? We’ll keep it a secret between us and the viewers. If that doesn’t work, at least a hint!
Seongcheol Kim smiled slyly.
-I would like to give you an answer, but please check it yourself in ‘Fate Alive.’

“I was satisfied and my stomach was full.”
Finally open!
Lee Ji-won, who had prepared a meal for breakfast in the morning, reverently injected the amino acid gel into a capsule.
How long have I been waiting for this day! Jiwon Lee recalled the comment from the broadcasting station he had just seen.
-This is Dazel: X Honestly, isn’t that a piece of crap? If you listen to the story, I saw the ending of Fate through a rare scam called ‘Heavenly Gourmet’. Haha, honestly, I think anyone could have seen the ending, right?
The corners of Lee Ji-won’s mouth rise.
“Think good thoughts.”
That’s what humans are like.
As time goes by, they quickly forget about grace and often talk nonsense.
Lee Ji-won had known about this for several years, so he wasn’t particularly upset.
Instead,
It seemed that some of the players who logged in with X had already confirmed the perks.
The tight-haired man spreads his arms and cheers.
“...strength stat growth rate increases by 30%?!”
This is a dog scam!
A gasp came from the X side.
At the man’s shout, X started drooling.
As I folded my fingers, I calculated the deceptiveness of the effect again.
“How important is the strength stat in the beginning... Isn’t that the power to hit 30 strength in a day just by hitting the training doll? It looks like he made quite a name for himself in Fate. “Seeing that I received such a special privilege....”
If expectations are high, disappointment is also likely to be high.
But X was already putting his mouth to the kimchi soup and wriggling his uvula.
“I can do that, right?”
X rather wanted to ask everyone. Don’t I have the right to expect that from you?
“...Let’s check.”
Players keep being summoned!
From now on, everyone is a competitor running towards the top. X also had to move quickly.
As I was about to check the stat window first, a woman wearing flowing clothes approached me.
“Congratulations on your return.”
...what?
X was startled by the polite greeting.
It wasn’t until I immediately looked around and confirmed that other players were receiving the same greeting that I noticed.
‘It’s an NPC working at the temple.’
As Titan explained, players are treated as returning heroes in Fate Alive.
It felt awkward to receive such a warm greeting from the start, but who was X?
“It’s an honor to welcome you.”
A master of the art of living!
X smiled brightly with a face covered in iron skin.
But unfortunately, the woman didn’t seem to have the presence of mind to respond to X’s greeting.
The startled woman shouted somewhere.
“Oh my goodness. How many times have I told you this? Anyway, you can’t go up there?! “You know best how cruel the ‘God of Tenacity’ is!”
As I said,
X had a busy way to go.
The goal is normal.
Even at this moment, competitors would have started their activities in earnest. So, X must have moved without regret.
“You just said you were the god of tenacity...?”
Even if an unknown god had not appeared.
Since X knows all 72 gods of heaven, it was natural to be curious.
X turned his head in the direction the woman hurriedly ran away.
“...!”
There was a large statue there.
Golden armor.
sword dagger shield spear and bow.
Not only is the statue wearing a ridiculous variety of equipment, but to top it all off, the statue is holding a bun in both hands.
And on the statue’s shoulder was a red, plump silhouette.
Perhaps because he wasn’t that stubborn, he didn’t even pretend to listen to the woman who was stamping her feet.
X, who had been watching quietly for a while, opened his mouth. There was a smile brighter than ever on his face.
“You promised, right? “It won’t be the last.”
Soon, the arrogant guy noticed X’s gaze looking at him.
Softly, softly. The tail was wagging.
The guy darted into X’s arms like a flash. A ‘privilege’ that cannot be exchanged for anything has arrived.
“I was waiting for you!”
