Chapter 58
Lee Hye-yeon and Kangjiyun’s expressions changed from moment to moment as they listened to the story.
“So, you quit your job and…”
“Yeah, I’m doing World of Illusion.”
“H-How could you do something like that without even discussing it with me!”
His mother was angry.
Muhyuk didn’t avoid her gaze.
“Mom, it’s what I want to do.”
“But…!”
“I’m more relaxed and my life is more abundant. I’m much happier now than when I was working at the company. You always told me to live happily doing what I want to do since I was little.”
Lee Hye-yeon’s pupils trembled.
Muhyuk’s words were correct.
She really wanted him to live happily.
Still, quitting the company…
Devoting his life to a game…
Actually, Kangjiyun had introduced her to World of Illusion, and she played it occasionally.
She thought it was a really realistic game. It was fun too. That’s why she couldn’t understand it even more.
It was just a game, wasn’t it?
“Still, it’s just a game.”
Her voice softened a lot.
Muhyuk thought he needed to speak more firmly now.
“It’s not just a game. Over a billion people around the world are playing it. In the continent I’m in alone, all the Asians are gathered. Those people are everywhere. Thanks to the game system, I can communicate with foreigners. How much can you do in there? It’s unimaginable. Even though it’s a game, since so many people enjoy it, interests are bound to be intertwined. Money is changing hands in those interests. A lot of money. I want to be the best there.”
