Chapter 0 : Prologue
Prologue
“Gasp, gasp, damn it…….”
I was out of breath. My lungs felt like they were on fire, and my legs felt like they were about to be torn apart.
The pouring rain was washing away my sweat.
My baggy gray sweatpants, soaked in sweat and rain, clung heavily to my body.
E n̂ ŭ mä
Just like that, I was running. Like a madman.
I glanced sideways at the book floating next to me.

The form of an old tome with a brown-tinged leather cover and a black belt wrapped around it.
A book floating in mid-air was, by anyone’s standards, unrealistic.
When I focused my attention and stared at the book, ddirik- a square window popped up with a light sound.
A translucent, blue system window commonly seen in games.

-Poor Performance Penalty: Burning Pain

‘So it’s Burning Pain today.’
A memory from some time ago resurfaced vividly.
The memory of struggling and flopping around like a fish in excruciating pain.
If I failed to achieve the training goal, the pain indicated in the Tactical Manual would come for a set period of time.
From Burning Pain to the worst imaginable tortures, I had to endure it all without being able to escape or pass out.
It reached a point where I thought I might have some immunity to pain even if I were actually tortured now.

I don’t even know how many months I’ve been doing this.
After running like that for a long time, I finally completed all the routines.

“Gasp—. Today is…… done…….”
Pulsseok-
I collapsed right there in the muddy puddle where the rain was pouring.

-Concept Completion: Let’s try basic training.
-Training has been completed.
Ddiriririring-!
Lying there, I had to listen to the electronic sound, like one you’d hear from a slot machine, coming from the Tactical Manual.

So damn sick of it.
A moment later.

Pong-! Popong-!
Small fireworks exploded over the book floating in mid-air.
Then, the middle of the leather book cover ripped open with a jjuuk, creating a hideous mouth with grotesque, serrated teeth.
[A perfect score! Ihihi, congrats, congrats!]
The goddamn Mimic-like bastard.
[10,000SP are awarded as a reward for achieving a perfect score.]

Next, a message saying the training was complete appeared in the system window, and SP (Study Point) was given along with it.
‘Rehabilitation Art…….’
I continued my thoughts as I stared at the system window. The items scrolled past one by one before stopping.
[Rehabilitation Art]
-Lesser Rehabilitation: Increases the speed of muscle and stamina recovery.
-Cost: 100SP
E n ú m а .i_d̃
‘Use.’
As I used Lesser Rehabilitation, a strange blue light flowed from the book beside me and enveloped my body.

Befitting its name, ‘Lesser,’ my muscles felt slightly refreshed.
Once I caught my breath, I could finally see my surroundings.
The rain falling on the riverside promenade. In the distance, the skyscrapers of the city center shone faintly in the dim air of the deep evening.
Among them, the one that stood out was the Charlotte Tower.
Ē ṅu m̂a
On the outer wall of the 120-story building, the S-rank hero ‘Flash,’ covered from head to toe in a pure white suit, was holding out a bracelet-type protective gear with a bright smile.
[Reliable protection even in dangerous moments! The crime prevention product MK Barrier, chosen even by S-rank heroes!]
An advertisement billboard where a ‘hero’ was squarely placed instead of a celebrity or a sports star.
If this were ‘reality,’ it would be an incredibly awkward sight.

That’s right. I am in a game right now. In a modern fantasy world where sorcery and magic, superpowers and monsters, and all sorts of incidents and accidents are jumbled together.
When I first opened my eyes, I thought I might have been kidnapped.

Because I had woken up in a studio apartment with nothing but an old computer. It obviously wasn’t my home.
Strangely, the beat-up old computer was far more advanced than the latest devices I knew.
It was smaller than the palm of my hand, I don’t know how they compressed it. Now I know it utilized magitech, but back then, I wondered what it was for a long time.
Before long, I realized that this was the world from the game [Heroes Zero].
Wiing- Wiing-
Catching my breath, I turned my head at the sound of a siren coming from afar.

The sleek vehicle of the Gate Purification Team, flashing red and blue emergency lights as it sped through the air.
It was a familiar sight now.
Beyond the well-maintained promenade railing, the dark blue river water churned.
Above the ripples made by the rain, the river’s barrier towers were lined up at regular intervals.
The towers, which also served as streetlights, emitted a soft blue light.
Each one acted as a component of a ‘barrier’ to prepare for sudden incidents.

In this world, which seemed like a futuristic image overlaid on the modern era I knew, I was still adrift.
‘How many days has it been? I think it’s been about a year.’

I want to go home. I had that thought again today. Not the studio apartment here, but my real home where I used to live.
Kkoreureuk- A short, thick noise twisted up from my stomach.
Just as I was wondering if there was any ramen left in my room.
Dding-!
Ӗn um̌ а
A system window popped up in mid-air with a cheerful notification.
[Tactical Manual - New Curriculum Updated]
-Required Course: Admission to Zero Academy
‘Zero Academy.’

The moment I saw the words, my eyes opened and my body sat up on its own.
It was a name I was all too familiar with. Because it was the main stage of the game I had steadily poured years of my time into.
Еn u̇ mа
Amidst the repetitive daily training, I had been desperately hoping for a message like this.
‘Maybe, I can escape.’
Ddiring-!
[A new course will now begin.]
With a cheerful ring, the message appeared.
