In the dark night only the moon shines in the darkness. Someone in the room must feel the chill of the night and the noise of the street, while constantly typing the computer screen in hand.
Program after program he typed, only to be able to breathe when finished. Thin hands without flesh and black eyes languid, making his pale face can feel a chill run through his body more intense than a fat person full of flesh.
It was as if the wind had penetrated the skin cavities and reached the inner bones. The person then shivered while grinding his teeth.
"In a moment... In a moment... In a moment I'll be done..."
Six days a week and only six hours of sleep, a really light job. Light enough for those with hands full of live wires, without the slightest soul or emotion.
However, that person was clearly a human with blood flowing through his veins. Need to drink and eat, and not put a battery box on the back.
"Damn you guys.. Damn capitalists.. How dare you cut my salary just for being two hours late from the target, damn it!! Have you forgotten that for many years I have served you, And this is the recompense for what I did?"
The pulse in his head and sharp eyes, made that person unable to contain his anger all this time. The anger that was held back for a long time, until it finally reached its limit.
The person kept cursing in an unpleasant tone. The veins on the hands and neck, now visible from the skin without flesh.
"I even, have never dated a woman while working with you guys. "
A life where jobs cannot keep up with the population, will allow companies to enjoy cheap labor with a high work ethic. Pressing production and operational costs to the most extreme point, without worrying about protests from the employees below.
And if that's not enough, then the efficiency of the busy working time can provide tremendous benefits to support business expansion for a dozen years will be the next.
Lots of people are looking for work, and when a company employee tries to protest to their boss. it would mean he had been kind to his brother who was currently in need of a job.
That person will feel the smell of acceptance documents when he sees the person who has been replaced. The wheel of life has turned.
The man who was currently typing the program with his thin hands, obviously knew that well.
"Damn it!! "
The lines of the program that he had typed, continued to climb upwards. His eyes just followed, the letters and numbers without looking around.
The full screen reflection of the program can be seen in the man's wistful eyes.
He continued to type while cursing what he was doing.
"Being a corporate slave for a small fee and working to death, there's nothing worse than what I'm doing. "
UHUKK!!
UHUKK!!
The man started coughing. Thin body and stomach that keeps on ringing, does not stop the man from completing his work.
The contents of the head that he had squeezed to its hottest point, was now starting to feel cold.
Then, blood started to come out.
"Cough!!... What? Blood? Another pay cut for treatment. Are you kidding?"
The man then held his mouth as blood started to flow out. The cold feeling in his hands and the pain in his chest, made him hit the table in annoyance.
BOOOO!!
A smack on the table made the screen in front vibrate. Then the man's vision began to fade, and the heavy body made him fall to the floor.
One thing he could see before a chill ran through his body, was the sound of a weak heartbeat and blood starting to spread. Then-
The man's eyes, now began to close.

A man opened his eyes. The only sight he could see was a colorless white dimension, as well as a body that seemed to be floating in the air. However, what confused the man was the blue writing that appeared before his eyes.
[Welcome visitors]
"Visitors? Wait—am I dead? "
[ Yes, you are dead. And you are one of the lucky people who have the chance to live a second life ]
"Second life, huh? That means I'm dead," dizzy thoughts still filled his head. Then he began to realize what had happened.
If, I died, it would mean I wouldn't have to be a slave to the company anymore. I've lived my life as best I can, and I haven't committed any crime during my life on earth, I shouldn't be sent to hell after I die. And if it's not hell, that means I'm going to heaven. Great, this is perfect.
Feelings of pleasure now filled his whole body, then he confidently said to the system he was currently talking to.
"Paradise in the second life, that is definitely what I will get. So, I want to be reborn as a president of a country. "
[Request denied]
"Then, I want to be an office woman with short and beautiful black hair. Along with having big breasts, of course. And Oh, yeah, I want my voice to sound good when I say, Ara—ara CEO-kun. "
[Request denied]
"What?! Why? Am I not going to live a second life? "
[ There are two options for you, and you can only choose one ]
"Huh? It's not like heaven I heard. Wouldn't the inhabitants of heaven get what they wanted? Then why are there only two options available? But fine, what choice do I have? "
[ The first option, you can live a second life as a Player ]
[ Second option, you can live a second life as an NPC ]
"Player? You mean, a bunch of morons who love to hack into a program I built to get free items? Damn, I hate them. "
The players were the worst, they were the main reason why the day off that I should have had turned into overtime. How long have I not slept to fix the system changed by cheaters who don't want to pay for the hard work of the developers. I curse you, players who like to cheat to get free items. Don't you know, our blood, tears and sweat, squeezed out to get rid of stupid people like you?
His hatred for the players, he couldn't take it anymore. Therefore, the first option is the worst.
"I chose the second option. Being an NPC doesn't sound bad. "
