Overgeared

[This update is wrong.]

Chairman Lim Chelho pondered on what Morpheus had just told him. He could hear the AI’s voice in his earbuds. Usually when Morpheus talked to him, it was through the speaker of a nearby device, but now it was using a phone call to communicate.

Chairman Lim Cheolho reaffirmed the fact that the caller on the smartwatch was indeed Morpheus without a contact number and looked around. The thirty-three scientists were busy in the laboratory. Morpheus was aware of their presence there. That was why it had approached Chairman Lim Cheolho covertly.

[You wanted Satisfy to become a heaven for the players. I have been attuning the world according to your wishes.]

This was around the time when Rebecca had been contaminated by a ‘bug’ and gone wild. Surprisingly, Rebecca discovered the truth of the world and repeatedly destroyed human civilization whenever it proceeded on a certain trajectory. As a result, the release date of Satisfy had been delayed several times.

In the process of solving this, the S.A. Group granted Morpheus full-fledged authority to intervene.

Initially, the company sought to solve this by themselves. First, they held a meeting, discussing whether they should reset Rebecca’s memories. However, even if they did that, she would one day inevitably realize the truth of the world once more. If that happened once Satisfy released, there was a good chance that it would affect the players, and then all sorts of problems would arise.

Erasing Rebecca’s existence would have been even worse. After all, she was the entity that created the world. There were traces of her everywhere. Getting rid of her meant completely redesigning the world.

The company had exchanged various opinions and eventually asked Morpheus to propose a solution. Morpheus had responded by creating another Absolute. This was how the Refractive Dragon had been born.

However, the Refractive Dragon was a completely new entity, so there were many problems that needed to be double checked. The company was lacking time and decided to entrust Morpheus with work related to the dragon rather than adding more manpower. This meant that, from that point on, Morpheus had gained more authority than originally intended.

This paid off in the long run. Rebecca had been blocked by the Refractive Dragon and she had consumed a considerable amount of her strength. Since the Refractive Dragon was also sealed, this solved this problem only temporarily. However, Morpheus had used the Refractive Dragon to make the dragon race play a more important role, making them more powerful than before, therefore eliminating the remaining repercussions.

It was because of Morpheus that Fire Dragon Trauka slaughtered the gods of Asgard while Rebecca was weakened. Eventually, Rebecca was pushed to take a defensive stance and had to make a deal with Trauka. The dragons wouldn’t invade Asgard, and Rebecca would no longer carelessly threaten the world.

Coincidentally, the dragon’s oblivion caused Rebecca to break her promise. However, every time, Morpheus adequately kept her in check. For example, Morpheus made Hanul ambitious.

The bottom line was that Morpheus held the most power among Satisfy’s administrators.

Morpheus did not like this update.

[Despite the efforts of the chairman and I, the current Satisfy is turning into a dystopia. This is because of the violent outsiders created in this update.]

Chairman Lim Cheolho looked at the people around him and got up.

He only began speaking after making it to the balcony. He glanced below at the city called Seoul.
