Chapter 768 – #Abduction01_Twins and Contest
#Privilege 1
One.
Gehenna, a city separated from the real world and created only for witches.
Unlike the remarkable world of the past hundreds of years, the scene of Gehenna has not changed much since it was first created in the 14th century.
This is because the majority of witches who live in Gehenna are conservative and have an aristocratic mindset.
Giving up formality for convenience is vulgar.
When heading for a long way, they still travel by carriage.
The dress that is evaluated as sophisticated is the elegant dress of the Belle Epoque era.
I use fountain pens and quills rather than ballpoint pens, which are convenient for research and document handling.
The architectural style is also strictly controlled according to the building law….
The result of a combination of these elements.
Gehenna is constructing a world very different from the modern one.
However, even Gehenna, which seems to be static forever, sometimes has a great wind.
The ‘Witch of Perks’, who was researching magic engineering, wanted to change this cramped city.
Accordingly, he built a lofty spire on his mansion and attached a huge antenna to establish a wide area network between the present world and Gehenna.
As a result, Gehenna became popular overnight.
Witches belonging to City Hall stare at the hideous antenna with their mouths wide open.
What will happen while the High Witches contemplate how to deal with this matter.
This is the story
2.
When it comes to the most prestigious family in Gehenna, there is one family that must be mentioned.
Singing pair of black and white, Count Jemanai.
Odile and Odette, the apprentice witches of the prestigious Countess of Gemanai, lay face down on the bed, facing each other.
The appearances of the two lying side by side are mysteriously identical.
Half-curly black hair that maids pour perfume on and carefully wash each day.
Eyes resembling the light of amethyst shine like a fairy.
Moderately thick lips with healthy peach blush.
The outstanding elegance that exudes even when lying down reminds us of a princess who popped out of a movie set in the Rococo era.
However, the attire is far from that of a princess.
They were wearing the shark pajamas and rabbit pajamas they had bought in the present world.
The fact that the twins couldn’t close their eyes even though it was well past the usual bedtime was purely because of the selfishness of civilization in their hands.
The unidentified object that emits whitish light and illuminates the twins’ faces….
It was the smartphone that was begged by the teacher to take advantage of the unprecedented event of data explosion in Gehenna.
“Ahhhhh….”
“Haaaaa….”
Odile and Odette yawn until they are filled with tears once a minute.
They are twins who have been interested in the present world from the beginning.
However, as an apprentice witch, she could not often go to the dangerous world, and as you know, Gehenna is a space disconnected from the world.
Therefore, the twins had to be content with listening to their assistant from time to time.
Since the new world of the Internet, which can collect all the information of the present world, has opened in the hands of these two, it was only natural that they would lose sleep for more than three days.
“Sister, let’s look at this.”
“What? You are looking at another document now.”
“Still, I’m curious….”
“Heh, don’t worry, Odette. My sister figured out a new feature. If you do this…. You can come back anytime without having to search again.”
“Wow! It’s like a bookmark! Sister too! Awesome!”
“Ahem!”
Smartphones, which could not even adjust the brightness at first, have grown to the extent that they can use the bookmark function.
The twins have been frantically accepting new knowledge through YouTube and Wikipedia.
Tonight, as they set foot on Google and collected information, advertisement banners kept coming into their eyes.
A unique deformed illustration that I have become accustomed to seeing so often.
[Turn off when you’re done]
[What did you do?]
[Novelpia]
It was just an ad banner.
Until then, something seemed less important and the amount of information to indulge in was enormous, so I was ignoring it….
Suddenly, Odette showed interest first.
“Sister, what is this? Can I press it?”
“Odette, get your hands off me now!”
“It’s a surprise! Why sister! What is this?”
“You saw it too. These are most likely malicious software disguised as advertisements. No matter who sees it, they’re waiting for you to press it.”
“Isn’t that just an advertisement?”
“I told you not to press anything. If you don’t, your precious smartphone might break.”
Odette’s point was correct, and Odile’s concern was excessive.
It’s an ordinary Nobelia ad.
“Is it?”
“Is that so? Trust your sister.”
“Okay, I get it.”
However, it is a smartphone that was opened with difficulty while using a lot of night-time vocal cords to the great teacher.
There was about three weeks left before the antenna was removed after going through various administrative procedures, so I had no intention of losing the treasure through nonsense.
For a while too.
The twins confirm the scary thing about advertising.
It means that phrases that stimulate curiosity are repeatedly and unconsciously exposed to consumers.
“Sister, sister.”
“Yes, Odette.”
“This spam ad. What did you do?”
“… Well?”
And Odile and Odette are the personalities who, when they have a question, have to solve it even if it is the end.
“Why don’t we just press it once?”
Odette looks at her sister with serious eyes.
Odile had excitedly scared Odette to show off the information he had recently acquired, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t curious.
“Okay, then let’s do this.”
“How?”
“Install the antivirus application and press it.”
“Vaccine?”
I saw the same material in the same wiki, but Odile’s interest was more in the field of computers and engineering.
Therefore, she gives an explanation to her sister, who tilts her head triumphantly.
“The name of the vaccine is as it is. It’s an application that protects your smartphone from viruses. They say you can get it from a place called the App Store.”
“What? Then you won’t have to worry about viruses! Let’s do it!”
I have already installed the app.
The twins who were in harmony searched for ‘vaccine’.
A list of applications appearing in a row.
“Oh, that’s a lot….”
“Can’t we just lay it all out?”
“Wouldn’t that be okay? You never know what kind of side effects will happen if you take multiple elixirs at the same time.”
“Hmm, then I’ll have to choose the best one….”
The two pairs of purple eyes that were wandering were stuck in one app.
“Odette, how about this?”
“The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention COV?”
“There’s something special about the name.”
“That’s right. There is authority in the name. Seeing the blue attached to the back, it must be an institution that manages diseases in this world.”
Odette took her sister’s theory seriously.
Thus, the twins who completed the installation of Corona 19 electronic vaccination certificates.
“Something seems to have cleaned up the Internet.”
“Certainly something…. I don’t know what, but I feel a sense of hygiene.”
“Now press?”
“Yes, one two three!”
The twins became living witnesses to the placebo effect, clicking banners with their dainty fingers.
However, the adventures of the twins did not lead easily.
“Yes?”
However, there was another barrier blocking the twins….
It was an adult authentication and login process.
“Something bothers me again.”
“I understand the login, but…. Why do I need adult certification?”
Odile and Odette’s heads tilted in the same direction.
“Let’s try it.”
“Yes, sister.”
But Odile and Odette are full-fledged adults.
As a result of grunting and putting our heads together, we finished membership registration and adult authentication without difficulty.
“Wow, I’m tired already.”
“What procedure is so complicated?”
The twins are already sweating, but there is still work to be done.
Of course, shouldn’t you check the contents of the ad?
Unfortunately, I forgot what kind of work it was while registering as a member.
No problem though.
The twins’ interest switching speed rivals that of a kitten chasing a laser tip.
“What site is it?”
“It’s so gorgeous…. My eyes are spinning around.”
“They are all women.”
“I know.”
Odile and Odette look into the Nobelpia website with the eyes of researchers exploring the unknown.
Then, one phrase caught my eye.
Banner at the top of the main page.
[2000 kicks per month if used well! You are now a novelist too!]
“It’s a novel site.”
“What is 2000 kicks per month?”
Let’s press it. Unknown phrases such as how to register new works, how to register episodes, and how to register plus were stepped on.
Go back once
The banner that I pressed a little this time….
“2022 Novelpia Adult Web Novel Contest?”
“Master piece?”
“Total prize money of 100 million won?”
“Plus Alpha?”
I’m not sure about the other things because they’re complicated, but what catches my eye is the list of ‘detailed awards’.
Target 50 million won.
Grand prize: 20 million won.
Excellence Prize 2 works 10 million won.
“Won is money from your assistant’s hometown, right?”
“Yeah, if it’s 50 million won, sister…. 62 gold coins.”
“Five…. They say they’ll give you money if you write obscene language?”
I didn’t know much else, but I definitely understood this.
Odile and Odette’s eyes stare into each other.
The privilege of twins born and raised together all their lives, eye-to-eye conversation.
“Sister, let’s do it.”
“Okay, let’s try.”
Therefore.
The Novel Pia Masterpiece Contest, the flamboyant twins, has come to an end.
