Chapter 136: Please Save Me, Sis (1)
It was nearly a month since he’d been hiding in the basement of the Cultural Center.
After nearly being killed by Rosemary, a single thought took root in Vermel’s mind
This world is no longer a game, and I can’t get by with game knowledge alone.
Actually, he’d always known this. How could he not? It was simply that he had ignored it all this time.
To Vemerl, the fact that this world was a reality and not a game was a terrible nightmare.
He had been sick of his life on Earth–nothing turned out the way he wanted no matter how much he tried.
The world was cruel and rewards weren’t guaranteed. Although there were less threats of war relatively, there was a sense of helplessness that was prevalent in society instead.
A lifeless, ashy world. Vermel hated that uncertainty, which might’ve been why he had escaped into the game.
He liked <Darkest Academia> because things worked out to an extent as long as he followed the strategy. Even if there was no solution, he could just reset it tens, hundreds of times. And while he played, he could distract himself from the reality that was darker than this game.
And so when Vermel had first dropped into this world, he could’ve leapt for joy.
Because he had firmly believed that he could change the world with his knowledge at last.
