「Regular Jessica: Huh? What's this? The storyline isn't over yet? What happened? Did Han Gyeoul get killed? Wasn't he buried alive in the middle of the snow? Did he finally get his shit together? No, but I'm pretty sure he made sure he rejected all the viewer-gifted DLC at that time?」
「Mutsiel: No way, hahaha. The soldiers saved him before he died from suffocation, hahaha.」
「Regular Jessica: What...? Seriously? Damn it. How much did I miss? Were there any important events? Did the host finally have sex while I wasn't watching?」
「Mutsiel: Tsk, tsk. Such a lack of faith. Still expecting sex on this stream.」
「Regular Jessica: Didn't he?...Well, yeah, I guess not.」
「Sweet Mocha: But you missed a lot, lol. It was so scary when the variants ran through the water.」
「Regular Jessica: What are you talking about? Are the variants Jesus? How can they run on water?」
「Groseillier Noir: Probably not Jesus but Peter. Fell in the middle of running.」
「ParalympicGoldMedalist: Peter, hahaha. Full of Holy Spirit humor.」
「Regular Jessica: Damn! Now I'm curious. I shouldn't have left so hastily... should have waited a little longer.」
「Appsooni: Doesn't seem like you were hasty. I was thinking of leaving too.」
「Dongmak and Smeegol: Oh damn. Honestly, isn't this too much? If you're going to stream, at least the 'Death Reincarnation' DLC is a must! This BJ kid doesn't know proper morals, no consideration for viewers, no concept at all.」
「Level9CivilServant: Morals? Why bring up morals here?」
「Dongmak and Smeegol: Isn't it obvious? If you're making money from streaming, at least don't end it with a shitty death. Who dies in the middle of it without anyone's consent?」
「Storm224: There was a similar lunatic before, I think... Maybe it's the result of new lunatics coming in. Human greed is endless, repeating the same mistakes.」
「DoomchitDoomchit: I'm that old lunatic from before. This kid keeps talking recklessly. Want to die?」
「ActiveX Dickhead: Don't fight, you guys, like those bank security program bastards.」
「Wilma: Security program?」
「ActiveX Dickhead: It seems like it, but in reality, it's useless.」
「Wilma: Hahaha.」
「Don'tDripWithNick: If you keep doing that, you'll be the only ones at a loss. Just watch because it's fun in the end.」
[Don'tDripWithNick has given 100 stars.]
「DoomchitDoomchit: I should keep quiet.」
「Storm224: Yeah, don't do it.」
「DoomchitDoomchit: Ah, seriously...」
[Lyokwon Naerau: ------------- Cutoff Line (Below is normal) -----------—]
[SweetMocha has given 100 stars.]
「SweetMocha: Hahaha, I'm the only normal person here.」
「SweetMocha: But, but, I watched it all, and isn't it an advantage to not have DLC? The kid is weak, so it makes you tense. So, you cheer harder, and since it's over once you die, it's scarier, and it adds to the immersion...」
「ParalympicGoldMedalist: Yeah, honestly, other channels streaming 'After the Apocalypse' don't have the same fear. It seems like they can't capture the essence of the world. Isn't it the recent status of the original Star Singer, the old guy?」
「HardGay: The original Star Singer? Oh, that old man Park Woo-chul?」
「ParalympicGoldMedalist: Yeah, that's him. That old man is also doing 'After the Apocalypse' these days. The stream I used to watch before coming to this channel was that grandpa's show.」
「HardGay: But how is that grandpa? Does he make the game interesting?」
「ParalympicGoldMedalist: Nah, it's fucking boring. There's no aspect covered by skill. The last time I saw it, he was playing with the 'Unlimited Power' DLC. Shooting lightning from his hands and fighting with Gamma Gumble. It's fucking retarded...」
「Mustafa: Lightning, hahaha. Damn, I can't imagine that. It makes me cringe when I imagine this channel's host doing that. People have different tastes, but I prefer something more realistic.」
「ParalympicGoldMedalist: Each has its pros and cons. Fast sex and vicarious satisfaction. Especially, that grandpa, he's so fucking good at it. He's a natural at what he does, and he has a great line: "If you want to live, take it off, bitch."」
「Eeakta: Isn't that what you say when you stick it in the back? 'Feel the fact that you're alive!'」
「Loan1BillionWon: Hahaha totally insane. How does he come up with such lines?」
「DodohanGongjju♡: Disgusting -_-.」
「YeoMinROCK: It's somewhat enjoyable. There's a reason they make good money. But there's nothing left after watching it.」
「YeoMinROCK: That old man should get his romance as DLC.」
「YeoMinROCK: Cupid's arrow! Activate! Saying this, 'Hiyaang, I love you,' heart fluttering, blah, hahaha.」
「Eeakta: Hey, still, that's surprisingly fun. No questions, just straight to hitting the jackpot.」
「OldSpice: Then why are you here?」
「Eeakta: Because this place is more fun.」
「OldSpice: Hahaha.」
「Eeakta: LOL」
「Eeakta: Even with the same game, depending on the DLC, it becomes a completely different world. This game and that one are so different. It's hilarious.」
「Loan1BillionWon: Why are you acting all amazed? The world of "Imperi Romanorum," which is popular these days, is also a medieval European history in vanilla, but if you install the Georgian Pack, it turns into a fantasy world with dragons flying in the sky.」
「Team Leader Kim Miyoung: What's vanilla?」
「Loan1BillionWon: Pure.」
「Team Leader Kim Miyoung: What's pure?」
「Loan1BillionWon: It means the original genuine game, you blockhead. The default state without applying anything else is pure and vanilla. Okay?」
「Team Leader Kim Miyoung: Thanks. Do you want a loan?」
「Loan1BillionWon: Crazy bitch. You're saying that even after seeing my nickname?」
「Team Leader Kim Miyoung: Yeah. People with debts tend to increase them more.」
「Loan1BillionWon: Ugh.」
「AdolfHwitoora: But isn't Park Woo-chul the most successful case among the first-generation BJs? He must have made a lot of money, so why is he still doing that? Does he want to be like that at his age?」
「Don'tDripWithNick: Maybe he wants to raise his Afterlife insurance rating.」
「AdolfHwitoora: Oh, can you still raise your rating after entering the coffin?」
「Don'tDripWithNick: Yeah, important thing is money.」
「ElectronicAnkleBracelet: Hey, but what's good about raising the rating?」
「FavoriteLook: The most important thing is that the AI is different, right?」
「ElectronicAnkleBracelet: Huh? Aren't they using the same artificial intelligence engine anyway?」
「ArrogantGongChyu♡: It's the hardware difference.」
「Don'tDripWithNick: You can say hardware, but more accurately, it's the difference in processing power.」
「Don'tDripWithNick: I guess you could call it hardware, but to be more precise, it's a difference in computing power.」
「Don'tDripWithNick: The basic computing power allocated to each class is different.」
「Don'tDripWithNick: Simply put, it reduces the time it takes for data mining. Think of it as enhancing the search-type artificial intelligence. From grade A onwards, even if the search-type module occupancy rate goes up to 90%, it's said that you won't feel any abnormalities.」
「ElectronicAnkleBracelet: Oh, that's awesome. Does that mean they always provide AI enhancement packages? Other grades have to subscribe to enjoy the service.」
「SALHAE: Even after death, it's an unfair society...」
「PackingNitrogen: Damn complaints about unfairness. It's tiresome, really. Where else in the world is there a society that provides opportunities like ours? In a society that guarantees everything to the entire nation, even after death. If you die, you have nothing to lose, so isn't it just accumulating as much as you work for? Just climbing up remains.」
「SALHAE: Hey, was my comment that infuriating?」
「PackingNitrogen: Infuriating, hahaha. Who got angry? I'm just dumbfounded. Those who complain about Afterlife insurance ratings are rotten. They don't even think about working hard to raise their ratings. What's the point of DLC if they don't even have a deposit? They should spend as they see fit.」
「SALHAE: Okay, let's stop. I'm an idiot.」
「PackingNitrogen: Yeah.」
「PackingNitrogen: Society isn't bad at all. It's bad for those who don't make an effort.」
「20sRetiree: Damn, he talks dirty.」
「Blow: Well, what's good for your body sounds bad.」
「20sRetiree: Bullshit.」
「Matsumin: I don't know much about Korea, but... I still get the feeling that something's not right.」
「Level9CivilServant: A sudden thought, but does the old man himself enjoy that? I hope my Afterlife isn't that ridiculous.」
「AppSuni: Well, it depends on how much effort you put in. You could diligently make additional contributions and aim for grade A. Now that we're talking about it, how much did everyone deposit?」
「BillyHarington: Not much. I have to keep pouring like this for another 40 years to even have a chance at grade C... Ugh. Even if I just become grade B like the host, it's a suicide angle.」
「HellExpert: 40 years? I didn't see that, but you're quite young, huh?」
「BillyHarington: Fool. I'm talking about applying for a postponement of Afterlife insurance and pouring more.」
「HellExpert: Ahaha, but does Afterlife insurance apply even if you commit suicide? Doesn't it not apply?」
「BillyHarington: That's for those who only want the basic guarantee grade. If the deposit is sufficient, they'll accept it even if you commit suicide. But generally, people don't think about suicide to raise their grade.」
「BillyHarington: Working for just one more month and if I die, I'll get one more DLC. That's what keeps me going these days.」
「HellExpert: Haha, damn, that's pitiful, hahaha.」
「IngrownToenail: I'm just trying to be satisfied with the basic guarantee grade. Is it not possible?」
「DangerWithBlanketPacked: If it's the basic guarantee, it's grade F. If you want to be frustrated after you die and want to die again, I recommend it.」
「IngrownToenail: Damn. That's probably true. What should I do? It seems so hard to raise one grade because the grace period for non-payment is long.」
「OldSpice: Non-payment? Is that even a thing?」
「IngrownToenail: Yeah... If you have no income, you can apply for an exception to payment. Then you don't have to pay until you get a job. Of course, you can't do that after the fact.」
「OldSpice: There's something like that?」
「IngrownToenail: Then you can pay the amount you owe during the suspension period, plus interest, all at once.」
「RighteousnessWithinControl: Huh? Interest too?」
「BanditHome: Talking about interest won't be much. Since it's a tax, it doesn't follow the official rate, right?」
「Don'tDripWithNick: What they deduct for Afterlife insurance is not a tax.」
「BanditHome: Essentially, it's a tax. Does it come out more than the official rate?」
「IngrownToenail: It's the same as the interest on a policy loan.」
「ZaraPapa: Policy loan... there was such a thing, right. I burst into laughter after seeing the ad. Who would take that?」
「Loan1BillionWon: So, how much is the interest on the policy loan?」
「IngrownToenail: 17.5%」
「BanditHome: Eukkk hahaha, damn, what kind of coffin is that? Hahaha, I burst into laughter because it's way too high, hahaha.」
「HellExpert: Damn, damn, damn, damn.」
「Magnacarta: Wait, why is it so high? I mean, from the perspective of the lender, isn't there no risk since my money is used as collateral?」
「PackingNitrogen: It's high because of lazy old folks who didn't work hard when they were young.」
「PackingNitrogen: All those bugs are just basic guarantee grade. Simply put, they have no money deposited. They use the basic pension as collateral for Afterlife insurance and also take out loans using the basic pension as collateral. So, the interest can only be high.」
「PoopDangDang: Then shouldn't the interest vary depending on the deposit? This is messed up. I hope those old folks who suck the blood of the younger generation just disappear.」
「IngrownToenail: Exactly. If those old folks are gone, the remaining subscribers could receive better services.」
「Blair: Old people ruining the country is the same everywhere. Damn Brexit.」
「Matsumin: I'm sorry, but you'll all become elderly someday.」
「GrapesOfWrath: Saying that, they're all life losers. Have they ever thought about why there is a basic pension? Money should not take precedence over people.」
「PackingNitrogen: Losers? Who? Me? Hahaha, I've already hit a deposit of 10 billion. I'm grade B. I can still pour a lot more.」
「GoodGoodGood: What? 10 billion? Is this guy born with a silver spoon?」
「Magnacarta: A spear, a spear is needed...」
「FrankSausage: Mom! Where's our house's spear?!」
「Mother: Check the second drawer of the fridge!」
「FrankSausage: Ah, damn, it's not there.」
「Mother: If I find it, how many slaps do you want?」
「ExyukConservative: Mom, what a surprise hahaha. The nickname is hahahaha. You idiots are doing well.」
「USKoreaAlliance: Why was there a spear in the fridge? Hahaha.」
「Vladimir: A spear? I have no idea what you're talking about...」
「Vladimir: Anyway, it's interesting. Afterlife insurance is undoubtedly a successful business model, but there seems to be some areas that need to be screened besides ActiveX.」
「GroseillierNoir: I've been seeing you, and you look like some high-ranking Russian official. Is that true?」
「Vladimir: Well...」

#Movie
The author enjoys watching movies alone. However, it's difficult to find time for it after starting serialization. It seems like not being able to watch it when 「5 Centimeters Per Second「 was re-released would be a regret. Oh well...
I also wanted to watch Star Trek... but I can't even do that. Ugh...
#Q&A
Q. Nesstor: @As your mind becomes clearer... is the day coming when you, the author, will awaken and whisper to the stars? (It might already be happening as the novel is being written that way) And the ghoul that felt fear surely retains 'memories,' right?
A. The day of overwork is approaching. / Memories? Well...
Q. RGZ95: @Contaminating Suwon with creatures like those or tumors... eww...
A. It was mentioned in the story that it doesn't seem to be a toxic substance... :)
Q. 淸流蓮: @It seems like your innocence is recharging today. Innocence is essential like water, easily running out in the heat. Thank you for another great work today ♥
A. The author's innocence runs out easily too! How should I recharge it? Thank you for the good comments today!
Q. Yakarubita: @It's disappointing without comments...
A. That's why I decided to start again little by little. You're not disappointed anymore, right?
Q. GomshiJu: @I pride myself on buying a lot of books, but I'm hesitant to buy e-books because it doesn't give me a sense of ownership... It's different from per-chapter payments. In the end, I mostly end up waiting for rentals.
A. I also don't really like e-books because they lack a sense of stability... but this is the trend of the times. At least in the genre market, paperbacks are not just about romance, more or less.
Q. Habika: @Whether it's a book or an e-book, I'll buy it when it comes out... I really hate zombies, but I'm enjoying this so much. It's more fun and enjoyable with Rico Men!!! Does it have the taste of web serialization if you don't do this...? Don't be swayed too much by readers' opinions, but take them into consideration appropriately. ^^
A. I'll stick to my own judgment when it comes to writing novels, but for other things, I'll try to adjust them as much as possible for readers. Thank you for enjoying the novel even though you hate zombies.
Q. Rumen: ㅋㅋDo you not serialize on Kakao Page? Can you only do per-chapter payments on Naver, and do you have to buy volumes elsewhere?
A. I will probably also serialize on Kakao, but Naver wants an exclusive release, so... I might enter Kakao later. Also, I probably won't be able to receive banners. As for the payment method, I'm not sure... The author hasn't heard whether it's per-chapter or per-volume on other platforms. If there's a decision, I'll let you know.
Q. Baekjaknyang: @Receive a coupon! Because of the author, I bought three days' worth of Noblesse again. I regret it, no, I'm having so much fun reading it. But oh, the money... Author, your writing is so enjoyable. Take care of yourself. Hail Scarlet!
A. Scarlet has come this far... shivering...
I apologize for the delay in the serialization of Seul Breaker. After signing the contract, I had no choice but to prioritize the mortuary. Trying to match the serialization schedule, even staying up all night...
I'm glad you enjoyed reading it. I hope the hiatus of Seul Breaker was at least comforting during this time.
