The door shut me out. I held the door handle and glanced back. Jung Heewon was watching to see how I would act while Han Sooyoung's eyes were oddly vigilant. Meanwhile, Lee Hyunsung looked like he would melt from anxiety.
I leaned back against the door and carefully sat down. “I won't enter. Can I talk here for a while?”
This wasn't anyone else, it was Yoo Sangah. There must be a reason if Yoo Sangah was refusing to meet me. The answer came back after a long time.
-…If you want.
There was no strength in her voice. In the midst of the stillness so deep I could hear people breathing, I thought about Yoo Sangah. It was Yoo Sangah when I was still at Mino Soft.
If you asked me if I was close to Yoo Sangah, I couldn't say yes with confidence. However, if you asked me what type of person Yoo Sangah was… I might have a few words to say.
“Did I come back too late?” I spoke softly. “I'm sorry. I was a bit too much. The incident where I was late on the first day of my new job and Yoo Sangah-ssi helped me… do you remember?
Yoo Sangah was silent for a moment before replying.
-…You were late both times.
Yoo Sangah looked perfect on the surface but she wasn't. Yoo Sangah was more sincere than anyone I knew.
“Do you remember searching in the interview?”
-I remember.
Mino Soft's interview for new employees was quite popular in the industry. Every year, different types of 'quests' emerged. The most common ones were 'raising the interview's favourability' or 'finding hidden interview hints.' For reference, the quest in the year when Yoo Sangah and I were interviewed was 'find the interview.'
-…I think I received more help from Dokjssi.
“I only found the quest items. Yoo Sangah was the only who worked out how to find the path using the items.”
At the time, I teamed up with Yoo Sangah and found the interview location.
-Dokjssi pointed out the inefficient quest routes.
“Sangah-ssi pointed out the causal relationship with the quest upgrade system.”
The 'quest' wasn't simply about clearing it. Identifying problems, weaknesses and finding the efficiency of the quest. This was the core of Mino Soft's interview. Yoo Sangah and I passed the interview with the highest score.
“It was a pity that we were split into different departments after joining… well, it was a natural thing.”
I joined the QA team while Yoo Sangah was in HR. After joining the company, we barely managed to exchange greetings.
“Yoo Sangah-ssi, I'm happy to be on the same team as you again.” I heard the very small sound of someone breathing. “Just as I did then, I need Yoo Sangah-ssi now. I need someone to help me find the way.”
Lee Hyunsung was looking at me with tearful eyes. Jung Heewon sighed lightly while Han Sooyoung turned her head away. Then Yoo Sangah's voice was heard.
-Dokjssi.
“Yes.”
-I'm not such a good person.
The 47th scenario. It involved the interstellar cities of the constellations and the 'constellation context.'
“Let's go destroy Olympus.”
