"Haaaa..."
I turned off the game console and sighed.
Rarely have I ever felt this way.
All in all, why do I feel skeptical only when I am in my late 30s?
Of course, I had no intention of changing my lifestyle.
I will continue to enjoy games, movies, animations, and AVs in the future.
Because of that, I didn't have the concept that I had to give up a lot of things in reality.
All of my other family members live abroad, and because of my complicated family background, they are not very interested in me.
I didn't particularly miss or care about them, and the lottery I won 15 years ago played a big part in that.
Literally, I've never run out of money.
Even before that, the only things I spent money on were buying games, watching movies, and building an environment to do so.
I was living a life without great greed, and it was also possible to have enough money to enjoy the rest of my life if I adjusted the range of money I spent.
I could have spent more money on games, movies, anime, and AV.
It has good computers, game consoles, peripherals, chairs, beds, video and audio systems.
I have lived such a happy life.
But why did I suddenly feel that I had neglected reality so much?
I looked out the window and found the reason.
I was living in a one-room apartment.
And, ironically, the apartment on the opposite side that you can see when you open the window was a high-end apartment.
It's been a year since this apartment was built.
Because of the high and luxuriously built apartment, the plausible view, which can be said to be the biggest advantage of this one-room apartment, has disappeared, but there were no major complaints.
Because I liked the world inside the monitor better than the life outside the window.
However, new residents appeared one after another in the newly built apartment.
Even if you are not interested in reality, there are things you can hear and see.
Although they were initially dissatisfied with the tall new apartment building right in front of them, the residents of the one-room apartment were very happy that the apartment price had risen.
Because 99% of new apartment residents are hunters.
In addition, most of the residents were women due to contracts with certain guilds.
female hunter...
I had no choice but to experience culture shock when I saw the beings I had only heard about with my own eyes.
beautiful...
Words like that weren't enough.
The aura and presence they radiate have turned ordinary people into ants, not squid.
Totally different people living in a completely different world.
No, can we say that they are the same human?
After all, the reason I felt skeptical about my life was not because I regretted neglecting reality.
There was something I was missing because I didn't see reality properly.
Hunters in reality were completely different from game, movie, and animated characters.
The same was true for the actors of AVs classified as so-called hunter waters.
No matter how fancy they were, they were different from the actual hunters.
Facing them, I was confused.
Is this the right way to live?
But that was a thought that had no way out in the first place.
It's not like you can become a Hunter right away just because you wished for it.
I had to do what is called awakening.
There was no way that female hunters with that aura would go on a date with an ordinary man.
In other words, it is literally a piece of cake.
Why did you come up with this thought?
is it possible to escape?
If I had come to have this mindset 15 years ago, my life might have been different.
It's also a time when suspicious things that say you can wake up if you spend money are popular.
Mostly it was a scam.
I wasn't interested either.
However, after seeing female hunters in real life every day in my late 30s, I wanted to risk my life on that tiny possibility.
"ah..."
fuck.
can't you come back?
Like countless novels and anime I've seen.
Shouldn't I, like the main characters, say that when I wake up, I'm back 15 years ago?
I saw a female hunter leaving the house.
She was showing off her figure in a short skirt with a cinched skirt around her chest.
Sliding her shoulder bag over her shoulder, she leaned over to see if she had smeared something on the side of her shoe.
It was a long distance, but her bulging hips were visible to her.
Her cock stood up, and her copper fluid gushed out.
fuck,
shit.
Can't you come back!
...
What can I say?
At least I was a lucky human being.
It was like that when I won the lottery 15 years ago, and I still got what I wanted the most at the moment I needed it.
okay.
I have regressed
according to your earnest wishes.
When I woke up after sleeping, it was the room I lived in 15 years ago.
It's the same as a studio, but I was just as young as 15 years.
Whoops.
#
Why did this happen?
I had a legitimate question.
No matter how much it was, I couldn't think of regression as something I could easily do just because I wanted it.
If I had to point out the bad thing about regressing, it was that I couldn't see the various collectibles that filled my small room.
As much as 15 years have passed, many of the works that came out during that period have all ceased to exist.
Even so.
Other than a slight heartache, I didn't feel much regret.
Regression literally means another chance.
It was more important to be able to have a new experience as much as the time I had earned rather than regret the games I had already played or the works I had seen.
'I can't help it.'
It was, of course, an unanswerable question.
Even if you search the Internet, it will be impossible to find the same case, let alone find the answer.
That's how lucky I was.
luck.
Thinking like that reminded me of the greatest luck I had in my past life.
Lotto.
It was because I thought that I might have reversed the luck that would come to an ordinary person once in a lifetime and returned.
But without thinking for a long time, the bankbook was placed on my desk as if to show off.
The shape and angle of the place brought back old memories even though it dates back as much as 15 years.
how can i forget
There was no need to check the date, today was the day.
The day I went to the bank.
Excluding taxes, I received over 8 billion won in lottery prize money.
How many rare times did you say that the winnings were piled up because they were carried over?
I had never bought a lottery ticket before.
The reason why I suddenly went into a convenience store and bought a lottery ticket was because my life was bleak in the future.
Because my family left me irresponsibly.
There are complications here, and I don't blame them either, but at least I was in my early 20s, having just been discharged from the military.
All I have is the tuition for one semester.
Everything else I had to pay for myself.
I did the math and didn't get an answer.
The registration fee should be a bit expensive.
I had no choice but to take out a loan, and I didn't know if I would have to struggle to get a scholarship.
Even so, he would always suffer from lack of money.
It was only natural that I wouldn't be able to afford to buy games or watch movies.
I had no money and no time.
The first decision I made was to drop out of school.
I didn't really want to go in the first place, so the decision was quick.
Even so, the way to live was the same.
After quitting school, I was stuck in my studio for a whole week, playing games and watching porn, and I suddenly realized something.
If I go on like this, my life will be ruined.
My chest was stuffy, so I left the studio and walked aimlessly before entering a convenience store.
That's why the one-line lottery I bought at that time won first place.
Unconsciously, I received the winnings that had been carried over for several weeks.
Besides, I was the only winner of the first prize.
From then on, I started living the life I dreamed of.
I locked myself in my room and played a game.
I watched movies, watched anime, watched porn to the fullest, and even jerked off.
I searched the Internet and bought a computer with the latest specifications and bought a chair, desk, and audio equipment worth millions of won.
without regret at all.
Saved money elsewhere.
Because for the rest of my life I didn't want to do anything like work.
I lived like that for 15 years.
Just before returning, I saw female hunters moving into a newly built apartment and thought maybe I had lived my life the wrong way.
In hindsight, that thought wouldn't have gone far.
I'll be back to my old life soon.
What can I say?
The timing was tricky.
As if something had deliberately brought me back.
I didn't want to think that I was the center of the world, but there was room for interpretation.
'anyway.'
I immediately felt my heart shake.
Once I pulled back the curtains and looked out the window, unlike 15 years later, there were no newly built apartments.
I can't see any female hunters anywhere.
I sat down in front of my computer desk.
I booted up my computer and naturally grabbed the gamepad I had 15 years ago.
"Fuck!"
It was fortunate.
Be alert before double-clicking the game with your mouse.
I live another life, but I almost lived the same.
Besides, there were few games I hadn't played, movies I hadn't seen, and anime I hadn't seen at that time.
I didn't see it because it didn't suit my taste.
That taste didn't change right away just because I had a regression.
That doesn't mean I want to explore new tastes.
Will you live your life playing the same games and watching the same movies?
If the will of something was triggered and brought me back, I thought that at least it wouldn't be for that purpose.
"Fuck!"
I tossed the gamepad as if it were something dirty.
Of course, I threw it on the bed so that it wouldn't break.
'It almost got into trouble.'
I know myself well.
If I had started playing, I would have lost at least one day.
Then a week, then a month.
Then maybe 15 years have passed.
'Instead of that...'
I tried to revive the feelings I had before returning.
Why did I want to regress?
It was to become a Hunter.
It's embarrassing to think of it again, but I was hoping that if I did that, I might have a point of contact with a female hunter.
Living as a normal person, you can never get involved with a female hunter.
I don't know if it's a second-generation conglomerate, a handsome celebrity, or a sports conglomerate, but I have no ties to those things.
The only way was to become a Hunter.
The commonly known way to become a Hunter was to awaken.
Truly random.
Just because you want to be a Hunter doesn't mean you can become it.
Talk about complete luck.
'But it's not like that.'
Fortunately, I remembered one bizarre case.
The reason why my memories are vividly alive was also because the contents were included in the game 'Hunter Manager', which I enjoyed.
At this time, 'Awakening Stone' was traded in the dark.
People's desire to become a Hunter was beyond imagination.
Why didn't the tactic using that psychology activate?
No matter how much law and order is alive in Korea, such fraudulent transactions could not disappear completely.
Even if it means losing money, there were many people who wanted to challenge the odds even a little bit.
In that sense, it was a very easy item to buy.
If you lie that everything is a probability, your opponent won't be able to say anything.
But there was.
Even among the many fraudulent items, the real one.
It was revealed to the world only after many years.
Because one of the hunters who awakened like that revealed the truth with his own mouth.
He was quite the S-class Hunter.
Because he wasn't the type to make jokes, there were many people who believed what he said.
That's why there was a boom that wasn't the time to get the Awakening Stone.
At least once again, there was no one who claimed to have become a Hunter using such an Awakening Stone.
I don't know if he was reluctant to reveal it or not, but anyway.
Anyway, there was no way that famous episode wasn't included in a game based on real people and real data.
It's an unverified story, but unverified stories abound.
The point was that it was a pretty fun story.
I also played the story with dubious doubts, but now that I've even regressed like this, it felt more meaningful.
'Let's see...'
I opened an internet window and searched for one person's name.
Park Chang-soo.
"ha ha ha!"
I laughed out loud when I saw that his name wasn't on the list of S-rank hunters.
There was only one reason.
It is not yet at that point.
The point before Park Chang-soo bought the Awakening Stone and became an S-class Hunter!
Then I had a chance too.
I always played 'Hunter Manager' series by series.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the story and history in it are all in my head.
Awakening stone that made Park Chang-soo an S-class hunter.
I clearly remembered the place and the person who sold it.
"This is not the time."
The exact date has not been specified.
Of course, the date was displayed for convenience in the game, but since Park Chang-soo himself could not remember it accurately, the date could not be accurate.
He only remembered the place and person who bought the Awakening Stone.
Perhaps it was at this point.
I got up.
There must be enough money, there was only one thing I had to worry about.
That's what I take first before Park Chang-soo gets that Awakening Stone!
I quickly left the one-room apartment.
