"So... what kind of player is Makoko Strange after all?

I know you're the one to be afraid of just the video of the Charin fight and the battle in the qualifying round, but I don't know anything else about the pro-gamer neighborhood situation.

If you understand your personality, your good tactics, your stance on the game, the battle should be somewhat advantageous, and I'd love to hear it.

Whatever you say, our party has people involved...

"Let me explain that to you!

When I thought the cat was going to talk, Anne came into conversation all the time.

Speaking of which, Anne used to refer to Makoko as the person closest to a computer human (virtual)......

I mean, I see it as occult.

Then I might be more familiar with Makoko than with cats in a way.

"Mr. Makoko is a pretty old-school player in the VR game neighborhood. That's what's been active since VR games began to spread to the public before the word 'Great VR Era' began to be used. Of course, VR games are the main activity, but at one time we used to put up videos playing retro games."

Oops, I started talking deeper than I thought...

But you're a retro game enthusiast...... This looks fitting.

"But Mr. Makoko was never a celebrity. It felt like a minor gamer that was popular with some of them. Yes, until I met AUO......!

"Ayuo?"

"Ancient Unfair Online. The same full-dived VRMMORPG as the Next (next-stage) Online (online), which is now out of service. The characteristic is such freedom that you can't even grasp the operation......! Equipped with unique skills, NPCs like humans! We entrusted most of our operations to AI, and the novel system of human beings being only support also gave us a hunch for the future. So much so that five years after the service shutdown, they still say that there is no game of freedom beyond AUO!

"Hmm, when I hear the explanation, I feel like I've heard that name a long time ago too... I wonder what it was... I think it was some kind of news..."

"That must be an AUO mandatory logout case! It's a case of all the players being forced to log out because of a glitch caused by an outside attack, but honestly, if this is all, it's going to be everywhere in the Big VR era."

That's outrageous...... the Great VR Era.

"But what's amazing is afterwards! After five years, the problem hasn't been fixed and the service hasn't resumed! But nobody says it's out of service......! I can't stop wassing about the operating staff being wiped out by AI or just restarting service to some people, but as far as I'm concerned, I think it's simply a hassle to notify them that they're terminated or the staff threw them away......! Yes, this is a normal story if you're still in the Big VR era!

So, are you okay... the Great VR Era.

"In the end, the question is why we couldn't restart our services. AUO was a game made in, and there is no reason to end the service trying to reduce the number of users somewhat due to a glitch. There were a lot of enthusiastic fans, and they should have made a fortune."

"Stopping a game that companies know they can earn if they resume service is a basis for some outrageous reason..."

"Exactly! There's still a lot of debate on the bulletin board about that 'reason'! The attack completely destroyed the game, the server exploded, and the game is still being taken over by the attacker......! But the theory I believe is a little different from these leading theories!

Those three are treated as powerful theories......!?

It just sounds like a hell of a rare theory to me, but does this also mean that this is normal in the Big VR era?

That's what I think in this year, but maybe I'm living in a hell of a time......!

"I'm inferring AI's theory of independence! After all, it was AI that ran the game and humans only support it. And the attacker was also human...... AI disbelieved in humans and made the game independent as one world!

... They do seem to say that three theories are more powerful than this.

It's the most romantic theory, but it's also the most occult and SF chick theory.

But if a company is still going to stop running a game that will be money, then maybe the reason is so abrupt that you can't imagine.

"In fact, it was some players and NPCs who came up against the glitch that started to show up as a shape in the game! The operation was just hand-in-hand! If AI also has a heart, I don't think it would be strange to have the option to get out of human hands!? Oh, so occultic!

"It's certainly an interesting story...... wow, where does Makoko get involved?

"Oh, I was! Mr. Makoko is said to be the player who stayed in the game until the very end when that AUO forced logout incident happened! So the tide has arisen that only she knows the truth! In addition to that, the mystery is deepened by the fact that Mr. Makoko, who worked regularly, hasn't had a tone out for six months since the incident! During this period, Mr. Makoko was fighting alone in the game, or rebuilding the game world, all you want to say is that Mr. Makoko doesn't talk about anything anymore! Including me!

Only one person stays until the end even though they are all forced to log out...?

Sure, that's going to be the person to talk about it.

I wonder how you found out you were the last one when Makoko himself shut up...

That's not information about her playing either!

It was interesting to learn about the topic of the occult neighborhood I had no idea of, but when asked if it would help me in my upcoming battle......

After all, after seeing the battle that's about to begin with my own eyes, I seem to have to listen to the people involved close to Makoko...!
