Overgeared

"I'm going to die..."

"I want to go to the sauna."

Night shifts became routine for the operations team. Tears well up in the bloodshot eyes of many people. Each of them had dozens of holographic screens in front of them and were highly exhausted from paying attention to the situation all over the continent.

From the operations team's perspective, they had no choice but to do it. There were so many variables in this war that could be a problem. For example, limiting the playtime guaranteed to players due to the power of a great demon. It was only when the operations team was familiar with all the information that it could be spread to customer care to handle the claims.

"Uh? W-Wait! Look at this!"

"What is it?"

A team member who was monitoring the situation in hell asked a superior for help. After a while—

The operations team was turned upside down.

"The noise is too terrible. I can't hear anything."

Strange people who shouldn't be there confused the leader of the 4th operations team.

On the screen, there were 'chunks of mosaics' in front of Kraugel and Yura. There was no way to know what it was. They didn't have permission to view the information. The observation permissions were turned off, just like when they couldn't see the players making love.

"Did this happen as soon as DS8051 used its power?"

"Yes."

The codenamed DS8051 was the guardian of Gamigin's soul vault. He was a high ranking demon and had a great power.

The team leader called up his information and frowned. "The power to bring out the trauma in the subconscious..."

The power seemed to be working normally, as proven by the appearance of Beriache in front of Leraje. The problem was that it was working too well.

"What's being shown on the screen are the traumas of Kraugel and Yura. They are traumas that we shouldn't see."

"Yes, I'm sure. It is the access to the two people's personal information. Otherwise, there is no reason why our observation rights would be blocked."

"It is troublesome."

There were three types of information that players provided to the S.A Group—their basic personal information, their brain waves and body information scanned by the capsule, and their game progress. There were no cases of providing 'memories.' The S.A Group didn't require it.

Yet DS8051 read the memories of Kraugel and Yura and embodied their traumas. It was due to Morpheus' own authority. However, it was a situation that could cause a litigation issue.

'How did this happen? Morpheus broke the terms and conditions...'

All types of imaginations occurred. There were things like Morpheus becoming out of control and the S.A Group collapsing. It could be used as material for sci-fi movies.

"Huh?"
