It took more than a minute to compose myself. To force back the tears threatening to spill over.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
How could I?
Was it really this easy?
The very reason I had started playing this game.
The reason I, a man who had lost everything, become a global criminal, been forced into hiding, and wasted away in a cramped apartment in the middle of nowhere, spending my final years playing a video game, was standing right before me.
"Eun-ah…."
This game… I had seen its credits.
That time, when I was undercover for my final job, I had glanced at my coworker's screen and noticed a name.
'Seol Eun-ah.'
Not Chae Eun-ah, but Seol.
At the time, I dismissed it. But curiosity had its hold on me, and thorough research revealed something more than I could have imagined.
The game's developers were from the same company my parents had once worked for.
It was ridiculously impossible. At that time, I thought it to be a mere coincidence.
