Etranger - Chapter Prologue

Prologue

One day I opened my eyes to see that everything had changed.

This world is not the world I am familiar with. Regardless, it is a blessing to still be alive. The problem is that there is absolutely no way to tell if the future is as blessed as well.

Quite frankly it’s scary. I want to cry.

What I need right now isn’t an answer, but a question. But even that must be the right question. In this game of survival, I just need to make sure to make the right choices. To me, the meaning of “us” means to move on.

18…. If only… If only…

GRYB(=Green, Red, Yellow, Blue = “Plague of Bullshit”)

[TN: Author puts ‘지랄염병’ and I’m pretty sure it’s just swearing. My friend says it means “Plague of BS”]

But at the very least…

Let us at least choose our death.

Otherwise, why don’t you do it for me.
