I fell into the world of cyberpunk games

[Honestly, I was surprised. I didn’t expect to say that much.]

I didn’t expect to say that much… .

It was a meaningful phrase. Like,

“It sounds like you already knew.”

[I was guessing to some extent.]

Dragon President said in a calm tone.

[First of all, I knew you weren’t from Neo Tokyo. I’ve been to Shinto-kyung before.]

Also Sasha Dragon. Like an onion, he is a person whose new information pops up endlessly.

It is a world where connections between cities are cut off.

Being able to move from one city to another in an era in which the city-state in which a person lives is cut off from the person’s worldview—it was great to have had that experience.

An achievement in itself that proves that the person is in a high social position or has enormous wealth.

It is even more so if the other city that you have been to is a utopia called “Paradise in the Sky” in New Tokyo or Dusk City.

It wasn’t for nothing that people’s eyes lit up every time I heard that I had migrated from New Tokyo.

With that history alone, I was able to impress others with the impression that I was a great person.

“Even so, it wouldn’t have been easy to convince myself that I wasn’t from Neo-Tokyo.”

At my questioning words, the Dragon boss shrugged.

[Tozen (of course) I wasn’t sure, I just felt different. All Shin Dong-kyung people… Should it be a common feature? There is such a thing.]

“A characteristic?”

[yes. First of all, I am very proud of my own culture. If you speak in a language other than Japanese, pretend you didn’t hear it.

Everyone seems to be quiet and timid, but they are kind to outsiders… Wakaranai (I don’t know) what his true feelings are like. It’s not easy to make friends.]

I thought it was a bit surprising.

Since he is a genuine otaku and a dragon boss who always mixes bizarre and wild Japanese whenever he speaks, I thought he would be impressed with Neo Tokyo, but he seems to have a negative evaluation of the people there than I thought.

Do you have any bad memories?

[And the peculiarities of the people there… speech? narration? There is such a thing, but you don’t see it at all. That’s why I noticed it.]

“What is the method? Is there anything like that?”

After all, people who have experienced Shin Dong-kyung directly are different.

With admiration, I begged them to explain how the people of Shintokyo spoke.

As my data states that I am from Neo-Tokyo, I was thinking that if I learned a little from here and applied it to others when I was talking, I would be less concerned about getting a fake ID.

The president of Dragon looked confused, then he sighed deeply and started explaining.

[So, I have to say that the outside and inside are different. I mostly use euphemisms, but that’s too harsh. For example… .]

After that, Sasha Dragon’s personal experiences followed.

When I asked him what his hobbies were, he replied that he was watching anime and manga, and he said, ‘Oh, you enjoy really interesting hobbies. You’re enjoying life.’ I felt good for a while when I heard the compliment.

Later, I found out that the compliment was ‘I’m living a very unhealthy life because I see things that children can enjoy as hobbies.’ I was shocked when I realized that I was saying it back and forth.

I was praised for being full of personality, but I found out that ‘You don’t have a dirty fashion sense, seeing you wearing such terrible clothes.’ That was to turn it around and swear.

[…] Yes, it was hard to get used to. Even now, thinking about it makes me shudder.]

“You’ve been through a lot.”

[It was a lot of hard work, Hontoni (really).]

Unknowingly, I reached out and patted the back of Dragon President’s faint voice. I don’t know if it’s because of the armor.

My feelings after hearing all of his tearful story… .

‘Isn’t it Kyoto, not Tokyo?’

I think it should be a nerve master rather than a Shin Dong-kyung.

Exemplary examples of Kyoto-style speech, which were famous in the previous world, were coming out of the dragon’s mouth.

Neo-Tokyo, which was built after the former Tokyo was submerged, was mostly migrants from Kyoto or something like that.

Either way it was pretty shocking.

How can the residents of Shintokyo, praised as a heavenly paradise in Dusk City, look so different from the outside like the devil?

That’s why I have no choice but to catch up.

From the point of view of President Dragon, who has experienced the local culture bitterly, my self-proclaimed neo-Tokyo origins must have felt foreign to me.

I must have been too direct.

[Devil… Not to the point of saying that, it’s just that I’m a foreigner. After staying for a long time, you can get a sense of whether this is a real compliment or what you are saying in reverse.

Well, anyway, that’s why I felt something strange about you. It is clearly written that he is from Shintokyo, and he himself says so, but he doesn’t seem to have the unique way of speaking or personality of the people there. So it was good, but I was suspicious in many ways.]

Oh my gosh, it’s easy to deal with, which makes me suspicious.

This is a problem that is not easy to solve, so it hurts my head.

Now, suddenly, I can’t change the way I speak with that Kyoto-style way of speaking.

To the employees of Dragon’s Rare, I’ve already revealed that I’m not from Shintokyo, so I don’t think there’s any need to act… .

There may be people who know about Shin Dong-kyung’s way of speaking, so I was thinking about not revealing my nominal origin to customers in the future.

Dragon President continued.

[That’s how I found out about the country of origin, and about the microchip… I had your body scanned once before.]

“yes? Scan?!”

Startled, I moved away from him and moved my hips to the edge of the bench.

I wasn’t overreacting.

In Dusk City, it is extremely rude and in some cases a criminal offense to scan someone’s body without permission.

Think of it as similar to stalking and illegal filming in the 21st century.

In a cyberpunk world overflowing with cyborgs and rovers, it is dangerous and unscrupulous to secretly find out features that could be fatal weaknesses such as cyberware and bioware of the opponent’s body.

“Apologize right now!!!”

[uh… I apologize. Gomenne (sorry). But you’re natural anyway, so it doesn’t matter, right?]

“Um, so it is.”

Makes sense!

Come to think of it, I have not undergone any body modifications, and there are no weaknesses or shameful features that will come out when I scan them, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

Although there is fake dummy data, it is a military technology that cannot be detected by a simple scan in the first place.

I almost agreed without realizing it, but then shook my head violently.

I can’t get over this easily.

“No, even if that’s the case, you shouldn’t scan other people’s bodies recklessly. When, how, and why did you do that?”

President Dragon smiled brightly and explained to me at my intrusive questioning offensive.

I wondered what kind of person the new employee would be, so I thought he might be a dangerous person.

I didn’t intend to delve deep enough to find out the secret circumstances of the body’s characteristics or weaknesses.

I just wanted to check what the level of body modification is and whether I have high-risk cyberware… .

“Scanning through physical contact? no wonder!”

I felt a deep sense of betrayal and stared at the dragon boss. Somehow, I felt that the touch was frequent.

At first, I thought this yangban had a heart for me.

Later, I thought it was just my usual personality, and I thought it was because I was open-minded like a Dusk person, so I didn’t think much of it.

“That’s when I scanned it!”

[…] when?]

“When I was cleaning up on my first day at work, you suddenly massaged my shoulder. I wanted to be suspicious somehow. I was able to aim for it all. Hentai (pervert)!”

[Don’t follow my tone. and not then When we first met and had a drink together, we scanned it then.]

“Somehow, he drank alcohol! I thought something was strange. You unscrupulous!”

[I was just wrong… .]

Dragon President acknowledged defeat and raised a white flag.

He said he had committed a mortal sin against me and apologized by begging me with his hand, and then continued.

[So, after that scan, I felt that there was a little metal in your head. I wasn’t sure because it slipped by for a moment, but I thought there was something.]

I didn’t know it was a microchip, but I found out there was something metallic… .

That’s just as strange as that.

As I’ve felt before, Dragon President’s Powered Armor suit was a bit strange.

It’s clear that it’s a regulated item, but it’s not confiscated by the DCPD either.

Above all else, it’s overly performant.

Watching the occasional use of the suit’s function, it seemed to have a level of utility and power that surpassed even the exoskeleton of a DCPD patrol officer.

In particular, in this case too, the secret microchip that could only be discovered through close inspection of the Lee Si-ho group was only discovered with the scan function built into the armor.

It was only a momentary capture, but it was absurd. Isn’t that some sort of over-technology?

How many people in the world have overtech cyberware in one bar, this?

While I shook my head, the Dragon President opened his mouth.

[The story leaked somewhere else… I was originally going to say thank you.]

“Yes?”

[Thank you. for showing trust. Trust me and my staff, and tell me your secrets. That’s why they gave me so many bonuses.

Originally, I was going to pay around 50,000 city dollars, but what you’re doing today is so pretty that I can’t give it twice as much. Although… .]

Although?

As I tilt my head, he continues.

[…] I didn’t tell you everything, though.]
