「ProBacksoo: No, so, fine, coffee is good and all. What about Park Tae-sun? Are we just moving on without killing him in the end?」

「Wilma: Death〇te... We need a Death〇te DLC. I want to kill the bastards who deserve to die.」

「richdog: What even is this mood right now? Where did my reason for watching this stream go? This is so, so depressing...」

「まつみん: It leaves the aftertaste of a cup of coffee that stays bitter no matter how many sugar cubes you dissolve in it. Poor Esther. Poor Gyeoul too, since he cannot simply follow his heart. He does look handsome when he is sunk in melancholy, but with all this behind it, I cannot enjoy it with a light heart... ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡」

「まつみん: Our Gyeoul, stay strong. I offer these stars as comfort. (ノTДT)ノ」

[まつみん has gifted 1,000 stars.]

[DomeHole has gifted 30 stars.]

...

[KILL has gifted 10,000 stars.]

「PooDongDong: KILL-brother is at it again;;;」

「まつみん: KILL... Are you actually super rich?」

「doomchitdoomchit: Stop giving him stars, you idiots. You too, Japanese girl, get a grip. What are you offering anything for? The more you people do that, the more spoiled the brat gets.」

「richdog: Han Gyeoul aside, you are something too, lol. How many times have you said this same thing now? Proving you have zero ability to learn? Or do you have a fish brain? lol」

「doomchitdoomchit: I gave up, okay? I am saying it because my mood is filthier than ever.」

「doomchitdoomchit: Was it when that monster bitch said she was sorry? I had never seen viewer quests pour in like that before. The number of relay channels was record-breaking too. All he had to do was kill that cult leader and half my annual salary would have dropped in one go, but then he fucking rejected, rejected, rejected without even reading them...」

「conservative_extremist: This is why guys who die young are no good. They are no help to the national economy. They do not have the filth and desperation of old star whores. Dirty bastards always make better money. Yep.」

「AppGirl: Why are you bringing up the national economy here, you bug? Lmao.」

「storm224: But if he really killed Park Tae-sun, how would he handle the aftermath? They would not be able to make whatever weapon that is, and the Host would get punished too. Thinking ahead, I think he held back pretty well?」

「doomchitdoomchit: If problems came up, the Host should figure it out by pouring in stars to twist Situational Computation or whatever.」

「storm224: And if that failed in the end?」

「doomchitdoomchit: That part has nothing to do with me. Why should a viewer be responsible for the outcome?」

「Wilma: Lol, vile as charged.」

「MeomMummi: I unsubscribed, then this became a whole issue so I subscribed again, but now I am wondering if I should unsubscribe again. The tension was good, but with an aftertaste like this...」

「OpusHomme: Ugh, I hate feeling like I am being dragged around by the state of the world.」

「MeomMummi: Exactly.」

「まつみん: But when I look at the other channels... I get the feeling that a life where you only push people around however you like is not a human life either. Seeing people sacrificed for entertainment especially makes me really uncomfortable. Am I the only one?」

「conservative_extremist: I get that our sushi girl is playing the kind girl act, but yeah. You are the only one. Yep.」

「Ephraim: I just plain like it.」

「doomchitdoomchit: What other people are there after death? Are we seriously treating virtual personalities like people? Are we acknowledging a second Han Gyeoul now? I bet Han Gyeoul does not even mean it for real.」

「まつみん: Gyeoul is wonderful because he does mean it!」

「Shudde M'ell: You, Matsuming. Do not waste emotion on those who seek to flee to the afterlife because they do not know how to live. It is a worthless thing.」

「YeminROCK: What country is this one from for the translation to come out like this?」

「Cthulhu: For starters, not a person.」

「AngryNeeson55: Everyone is too emotional. Even if some of it could not be helped from the Host’s position inside the world setting, he could have killed him if he wanted to. But I believe keeping Park Tae-sun alive was a wise decision. If things go well, they might reach the true ending of 「Days after Apocalypse」. Do none of you feel any expectation for that at all?」

「MorningChamIsul: Well, this was the first time I learned immunity meant that. The Host’s thoughts that appeared through 「Teletype」 were... yes. Just because a vaccine is made does not mean the variants that already exist will disappear.」

「Nuclear Power: If 「Plague Immunity」 works in stages, and the biochemical weapons made from that immunity do too, I wonder how much Park Tae-sun is worth?」

「SweetMocha: Isn’t that bastard’s immunity stage one at best? Among the 「Days after Apocalypse」 streamers, including our Gyeoul, there has not been a single case of anyone getting 「Plague Immunity」, right? At least among the known ones.」

「Nuclear Power: Only stage one...」

「HellExpert: Honestly, that is an ability you buy with money. At minimum, it is for silver spoons only.」

「100MillionDEBT: I wish rich people would show their afterlives too... I bet it would be fucking awesome.」

「ZzaraPappa: Now that you mention it, that is weird all of a sudden, huh?」

「UltraCutie: What is?」

「ZzaraPappa: No matter the world setting, why are there no S-rank public streams anywhere?」

「richdog: Why would they do public streams, lol? They do not need money, lolol.」

「ZzaraPappa: Even if they do not need anything, they could still show off, no? Like, look at this, lol. My afterlife is on a different level from yours, lol. Jealous? Jealous? Go ahead and seethe as much as you want, lol.」

「richdog: Hmm...」

「NationalBreadDuty: Sounds plausible?」

「ZzaraPappa: Since S-rank subscribers are still people like us, there have to be weirdos among them, like nasty bastards, attention seekers, perverts, and so on. Even if they do not do long streams, you would think some of them would feel like doing a short public one, right? Even the delinquents in this channel would want to brag like hell if things went well for them.」

「lemonade: Delinquents, lmaoooo. Cannot deny it.」

「Ppukku: It is not like I am a Joseon king, so I would not want to show other people even me having sex. Even so, it really is weird that there are none at all. Something feels off.」

「HellFlavor: S-rank gets clone body culturing as a basic service, right? Regenerating the brain and coming out with a new body. Maybe because of that, they stay in the afterlife too briefly to bother with public streams or anything. Aren’t the culture facilities attached right to the ossuaries too?」

「GrapesOfWrath: Why would anyone crawl out into this trash heap of a physical reality when they have a perfect afterlife?」

「HellFlavor: Beats me...」

「conservative_extremist: You will know if you work hard and enter an ossuary as S-rank yourselves.」

「MagnaCarta: Is that something effort can do?」

「conservative_extremist: If effort is not enough, put in effffort, dumbass. Yep.」

「GrapesOfWrath: There you go again with that effort shit, lololol.」

「AekDda: Han Gyeoul stopping the apocalypse would be faster than me becoming S-rank.」

「ProudPrincess♡: Real...」

「Don't_NickPun: I think the government or the Afterlife Insurance Authority is blocking it as policy. If people saw that, a lot more of them would become dissatisfied with their own afterlives.」

「conservative_extremist: Riiight, thanks for the conspiracy theory.」

「Nuclear Power: We got cut off because nonsense came out, but would Park Tae-sun’s stage-one immunity have much meaning?」

「Red October: Depends on the situation. Even if the weapon made with it has limited effects, America in this world setting would use it very effectively. It has the military power and production capacity to back it up, right?」

「Red October: On top of that, that monster named Esther cooperating would be a major variable too.」

「まつみん: Esther is not a monster. Esther’s heart is human.」

「NitrogenPack: Esther is a monster. Esther clearly is not human.」

「まつみん: That is too much.」

「NitrogenPack: People who believe in religion are all monsters to begin with. They are not sane.」

「unitythroughzen: This one is a demon.」

「NationwideSlaveShowoff: Religion is all lies anyway, right? I find it amazing that people still believe in it.」

「GrandFerrol: There are a lot among foreign workers. Lol.」

「NationwideSlaveShowoff: Nope, there are quite a few among our country’s people too.」

「NitrogenPack: It will not last long anyway. It is a fact that religion has kept declining since Afterlife Insurance came out. If people are not afraid of death, what damn religion would they need?」

「conservative_extremist: Let me put it in smart terms. That was all a fear economy. Lolol. They threatened people that if they did not believe, they would go to hell after death, then squeezed money out of them, lolol. But now there is no such thing as dying at all. No, you do die, but you can still exist. Must be so unfair for the scammers. Nice, lolol.」

「NationwideSlaveShowoff: No... It is true that it kept declining, but apparently it has been rising little by little over the last few years. I saw it on the news.」

「activeXfuckoff: Rising? In this era? Why?」

「unitythroughzen: Because people need answers to life.」

「GrandFerrol: ?」

「unitythroughzen: Think on it, sentient beings. Does joining Afterlife Insurance automatically make you happy? Does this Han Gyeoul’s afterlife look like salvation to you? A life with no answer while alive. Even if it is trapped in death and continues for a thousand years, can it find the reason for existence, the ultimate answer? Perhaps one day human civilization may reach boundless wisdom. But until then? Are all the people who die or get discarded before that supposed to leave while carrying emptiness? Would faith not fill that gap?」

「NitrogenPack: Dumbass. That came out of nowhere. Summarize it in three lines.」

「unitythroughzen: Leaving everything else aside, people first want to be loved. Do not the Buddha of our Buddhism and God of Christianity both lead humans toward love?」

「MeomMummi: What kind of nonsense are you suddenly barking? Lmao.」

「unitythroughzen: Look at this chat room. Who but a divine being would love ugly, foolish, filthy piles of shit like you? Who but a transcendent being beyond human limits would understand you...」

「storm224: Piles of shit... Suddenly, that feels very persuasive.」

「Nyarlathotep: At least I love humans.」

「FrankSausage: What are you talking about? Did every crazy bastard in this zone show up?」

...

「AekDda: I checked Han Gyeoul’s skill status, and it looks like he will not be getting immunity, lmao.」

「Blair: Oh, you can view his skills too?」

「BigBuffetBoy86: It says 「Disease Resistance」 level 11 and 「Toxic Resistance」 level 10. Our Mister Han has been steadily working hard all this time. How admirable. :) To unlock 「Plague Immunity」, those have to be at least level 15, right? And if they are higher, you get bonuses.」

「Blair: That is what I know too. But if they are level 11 and level 10, is there not that much left?」

「まつみん: There is a lot left. :( From now on, only sections he has never trained before are left, so it looks really hard to raise them. Unlike combat-type skills, there is no accumulated advantage at all...」

「Don't_NickPun: If he gets even one stage of immunity in this round, we should consider that truly excellent. Complete immunity at level 15 or above is out of the question. Anyway, even just one stage would have a lot of uses if it is an attribute that does not overlap with Park Tae-sun’s.」

「richdog: Attribute? What attribute?」

「Don't_NickPun: Which part of the Morgellons complex he is immune to.」

「richdog: Ah-ha.」

「OldSpice: Level 15 or above, lmaooo. Even ordinary skills have a hard time reaching the realm of superhuman, lmaooo.」

「SweetMocha: It does not have to be complete immunity, so please let us at least see 「Plague Immunity」. :(」

「Grade-9 Civil Servant: I feel like 「Disease Resistance」 and 「Toxic Resistance」 themselves would be pretty useful too. Does anyone know how strong they are in his current state?」

「DewCrocodile: Hard to say. Well, he probably will not get food poisoning?」

「Grade-9 Civil Servant: Food poisoning, fuck, lmaooo.」

「Red October: Do not look down on food poisoning. Depending on the case, food poisoning can be as dangerous as poison gas. Haven’t you heard of botulinum toxin? Even eating it in nanograms can kill you. Even the current Han Gyeoul would have no choice but to die right away if he ate the wrong spoiled canned food. Those skills probably just increase the chance of surviving when he gets treatment.」

「BlackCat: Then those two skills are not especially useful, nyang?」

「Red October: We do not know exactly what the real effect would be. But if social infrastructure is intact, then even if they have an effect, would they not be almost useless? Hygiene and medical care are being maintained.」

「BlackCat: That is true, nyang. I am curious, so I hope America roughly collapses, nyang.」

「SweetMocha: You are outright cursing them.」

「SweetMocha: Do you not even feel bad for Gyeoul?」

「BlackCat: A kid who earns more than my butler is not pitiful at all, nyang. He does not buy a single DLC, so his net profit must be no joke, nyang. In Han Gyeoul’s night sky, starlight must be overflowing into a Milky Way, nyang. BlackCat’s stomach hurts just thinking about it, nyang.」

「Red October: Hmm. Maybe he might have gained resistance to that toxin.」

「Grade-9 Civil Servant: That toxin?」

「Red October: You know the one. The toxin they said Morgellons secretes when it gets destroyed by radiation. The effect was like zombie drug. If someone is exposed past a certain level, they go insane.」

「Grade-9 Civil Servant: Ah-ha, that.」
