085. Horror Game

When I went out the door, snow was falling from the sky.

“It’s cold…”

I lifted the padded zipper all the way up and shoved my hands deep into my pockets.

The distance from my house to Doane Studio is about 7 minutes.

From noble mtl dot com

It was a distance that could be covered in 3 minutes by running, so I went down the slope at a fairly fast pace.

Take out your cell phone.

[Doya. I am now in front of the studio entrance.]

Not even 30 seconds after sending the text, Doa came out to meet me.

Doa, who was wearing fluffy fur slippers and sleep pants that looked even fluffier, hugged me.

“Oppa!”

“What? “Shouldn’t we go back quickly now?”

“I think I’m really screwed…”

Doa is distraught over the fact that she has to play a horror game and is talking gibberish.

If it were in a cartoon, I would laugh at the sight of Doah with a face that looked like her eyes were spinning.

I put my hand on her head and quickly went back in and tried to calm her down.

The current broadcast is muted.

I waited for Doa’s guidance on how she wanted me to behave.

“First of all, oppa. “I think it would be nice to have you next to me.”

“But isn’t it a bit weird if it’s right next to you?”

“That’s right…”

If I made any noise, it would be a complete disaster.

“Oppa. “For now, it’s just there.”

“Over there?”

Doa pointed with her finger to a sofa in a small lounge area.

“Yes. “Just stay over there and don’t say anything.”

“But will that be enough?”

It was okay for me to just turn on the broadcast, plug in my earphones, and sit back to watch, but it was Doah who was scared.

“If you’re too scared, let me run there, just sit there.”

I nodded her head to indicate that I understood, and Doa, who sat down in her chair again, signaled to me with her solemn face that she would begin broadcasting.

[Ahemhem!]

As Doa started her broadcast, I took out the wireless earphones I had prepared from my pocket.

When I felt the delay between the sound of people actually talking next to me and the sound coming through the radio waves, I forced myself to turn up the volume on my phone.

[Now… Now… Really… That…]

Luca’s avatar with tears welling up in his eyes.

But her chat window was forcing her to play her horror game even more passionately.

[Luca land! Turn it on quickly!!!!!]

I don’t know if it’s an emoticon made to look like this, but the Pingtuk group is plastering a lot of cones holding light sticks.

Doa slapped her forehead with her hand as if her head was in pain.

[Now… Then… As promised… Let’s play a horror game… Uhuhuhuh]

Luca is crying.

Ah. I shouldn’t laugh.

Doa could see my face right now.

But what can you do when it’s so cute that it keeps making you laugh?

If I had seen it at home, I would have smiled broadly instead of twitching my facial muscles like I do now.

[Well… Then shall I turn it on now?]

When I press the start button, my vision goes black with a chill running down my spine.

As with most horror games, the perspective is first-person.

Luca’s avatar floating next to her was clearly showing her expression in real time.

-Kkiii Iik

The creepy sound effects unique to horror games scratch your ears.

[Ah… Really… Why is opening the window so scary… Ugh…]

Even though no ghosts or monsters had appeared yet, Doa kept raising her head and looking up at her ceiling.

The game I recommended to Doa was one of the less scary horror games.

It had its own story and the level of difficulty was decent, so if it was scary, even Doa, who couldn’t use all four limbs, would be able to clear it.

The first mission is to find the key to the basement.

Luca was clicking her arrow keys and aimlessly rummaging inside her lungs.

[No. Doesn’t this use the interaction key?]

…That’s because it’s not an interactive piece!

Destructive frustration that builds up even before it starts.

The speed of the chat window was not that different from me, as the Pingtuk group was no different from me.

[No]

[Luka! Not there, on the right!]

[ㄹㅇㅋ]

[Ah… I think I’m going to faint from blood pressure…]

Hey. There’s a kid over there who thinks exactly like me.

Honestly, I felt like I wanted to go to the side right now and manipulate the mouse myself.

Hey! Please go to the right!

[Ah. Right here.]

Only then did Luca find the key in the dresser and was able to enter the locked basement.

Her first event waiting for her.

That’s right.

[Kyaaa!]

Screams penetrate the earphones faster than radio waves.

Doa covered his eyes with both hands.

As soon as we entered the basement, her bright red hands grabbed the protagonist and dragged him away.

What was then seen on the screen was a woman’s face with her neck twisted.

Doa was so shocked that she couldn’t even touch her keyboard for a while.

[Ah… Ah…]

Doa looked at us with trembling eyes.

I wanted to say it was okay, but making a sound was taboo.

I nodded and gestured to encourage them to play again.

[…Everyone.]

Luca’s avatar began to shed tears.

[If I don’t make a sound for more than 5 minutes, you must call 119. You understand, right?]

The main character, led by a ghost, wakes up in the deepest part of the basement.

The mission was simple.

I will escape from here alive.

But of course there were necessary items and quests for him.

Sometimes you have to get a key or a lamp, and you have to exorcise the ghosts of your family that have a grudge against you.

[This… What do I do now?]

When Luca asked in a voice full of fear, the chat window instructors kindly gave her orders one by one on what to do.

[Left here?]

My girlfriend steadily follows the instructions one by one while looking at the chat window.

As with many horror games, the feeling of fear given by dark spaces.

Moving only with a limited field of view can cause people to feel extreme fear.

Doa was not actually in the house, but she was moving her fingers in a very withdrawn posture.

[…When will the ghosts come out?]

Just continuing to walk with gloomy background music adds to your stress.

Because the tension of not knowing when something would pop up was something that ate away at people.

And actually, our Luca-tan didn’t have to worry about that.

That’s right.

[This. Can I touch it?]

Luca discovers a doll in the shape of a child.

After listening to the viewers without any doubt, she couldn’t help but let out her dolphin-like high-pitched scream again.

[Hiyaaa!]

No. It’s Luca.

If you look at that, don’t you think it’s suspicious?

No matter how I looked at it, it was a doll that seemed to be covered in hemp.

As soon as the interaction key was pressed, the doll’s face changed into something grotesque, and the doll, which gained willpower, began chasing the protagonist like a hunting dog.

Movement like a monkey, not human.

Doa pressed her keyboard as hard as she could and ran toward her with all her might.

[They say you can press this. You bastards!]

I looked twice as cute for not being able to tolerate swear words.

But since I debuted, I rarely swear.

It seemed like he couldn’t bear it at this moment.

Doa, who managed to trap her doll inside the bars, put her hand on her tumbler, her hands shaking.

[Guys… My hands are really shaking… I touched the tumbler to drink water and it’s just shaking?]

She drank water, caught her breath, and asked viewers questions as if she was waiting for her lunch break.

[How much have you done now…?]

If you ask about the progress of the game, it is now about 50%.

There were some pretty scary scenes, but the highlights didn’t even begin.

The most bizarre and eerie-looking ghost.

Because ‘Mom’ didn’t even appear.

Hey. Those who pick clips today will have a good harvest.

If the exam were over, I would definitely have fun picking up clips, but I don’t have the time to do that yet.

The game is getting closer and closer to its climax.

Now it is the turn of ‘Mom’, who can be said to be the pinnacle of this game.

Doa’s face turned pale, as if Luca also sensed that her mood was unusual as her voice changed.

[Everyone. What is it? What is this? Someone please talk quickly.]

However, all that comes back is a chat full of laughter.

The Pingtuk troupes practiced silence for this time as if they were united.

The main character has reached the heart of a dark underground passage.

I also bit her lip to keep from making a sound.

Even if I only saw it once, it was still scary.

No. In my case, it would be more accurate to say I was surprised rather than scared.

It was the moment when Doa changed direction.

The background music suddenly stops and what fills the screen is the image of a woman with bugs pouring out of her eyes.

“Apaaa!”

Doa throws away the earphones and runs towards me and hugs me.

Inside the fallen cell phone.

[Oppa…?]

[Did you just say oppa?]

[Not the father?]

[Where are you going, Luca-tan?]

…Hey. Doa land.

This is something that can be resolved, right?

Even as I hugged her, I was dripping with cold sweat.
