I Am A Prodigy

‘Apology…received?’

‘What’s the meaning of this?’

Everyone was confused. Was the apology accepted or rejected?

Anxiety plagued the hearts of many. A number of Chinese people wished for him to reject it, hoping for Stick Nation to remember this lesson well by making it a painful one. Those from the Stick Nation on the other hand wished for his forgiveness. They have had enough. The past few days were truly the darkest hours for them.

They were in the age of the internet, and the network was too important. None can live without the internet. Moreover, it involved their important documents and data. Within that time, countless companies descended into utter chaos as many hours of work from the masses went to waste. They were on the verge of breaking down.

Although they hated Hacker Y, they were also terrified. This kind of ruthless character was just too scary.

The next moment, they noticed their computers were fixed!

One by one, the icons returned to normal and the network became safe again.

‘This…it’s gone?’

‘Is it really gone?’

People of the Stick Nation covered their mouths in surprise. They never expected that an apology was sufficient for Hacker Y to show mercy.

The infected computers were recovering one one by one!

After that, countless people from the Stick Nation were celebrating with their tear filled faces!

It was one whole week. That week felt as long as a century to them.

[It’s really gone? Damn, so all it took was an apology.]

[Sob sob sob, so what if it’s gone? All the data in my computer is gone!]

[OMG, I can go online again. I never thought that going online was something so touching. I’ve waited long enough.]

[No! My years of hard work!]

[Hacker Y, you beast!]

[Chinese people are just evil. How dare they persecute us with such a vicious method. We’ve suffered great losses!]

It was finally gone.

Those at the Stick Nation’s Computing Center let out a long sigh of relief. They were afraid that Hacker Y would continue tormenting them. By then, their losses would be truly beyond hope.

While they celebrated, they felt a sense of helplessness. ‘Sigh, our skills are no match for him! The difference is too much.’

Faced with the Y-virus, they were unable to put up any counter from the beginning to the end and suffered great losses. In fact, they had gone through a certain level of economic recession. All that was just the power of one man. Their own country looked like a joke.

Hacker Y had only thrown a virus at them and they were helpless, begging for mercy. With that, all their dignity was gone.

That would definitely be recorded as a dark history for them, a disastrous defeat. It could be considered a week of absolute darkness for the Stick Nation.

With the virus gone, the Stick Nation started restoring their network. The Stick Nation was on the verge of tears when they tallied the losses they suffered from this incident.

Moreover, they had to continue upgrading their firewall and update their virus database. Regardless of its effectiveness, they had to make improvements. This incident really traumatized them.

Some of the Stick Nation’s citizens were feeling incredibly frustrated. Just as their network recovered, they started mouthing off again.

[I think this Hacker Y is going off because he’s afraid.]

[This is a felony. We need to lock him up!]

[This Hacker Y is a dangerous person, no, a terrorist! We need to punish him!]

[What’re you guys doing? Go after him!]

[Are we not getting back at them after suffering such a huge loss? Revenge!]

[You can’t even find the person behind this. Noobs!]

Keyboard warriors were not limited to China alone. There were plenty in the Stick Nation as well.

Oblivious to them, the things they were shouting about had long been done by various countries. However, where could they search? Where should they investigate?

They wanted to arrest Hacker Y too! This kind of existence was like a high level boss that was extremely dangerous and terrifying.

Nevertheless, he was untraceable! Although he was most likely a Chinese, it was useless considering the population size in China. With such great hacking skills, if Hacker Y did not show himself, even China would have difficulty locating him.

However, right at that moment, the Stick Nation’s computer screens changed once again. It started showing articles, pictures, and even videos.

Those keyboard warriors had a shock of their lives, almost jumping out of their chairs as they thought Hacker Y was going after them again.

However, after taking a careful look, it was the dark secrets of Hyun-Min Kim and the entertainment company he was in. There were countless records of illegal dealings!

Horrifying video footage and photos challenged the worldview of those watching.

[In order to rise to a better position, Hyun-Min Kim acted as the escort of a high level male official!]

[Certain authoritative figures in the entertainment company took advantage of their celebrities by abusing their power!]

[Various receipts and bills of the entertainment company reveals rampant tax evasion!]

[XX celebrity’s suicide due to exploitation by this entertainment company!]

Those items appeared on the computers and the sites that were affected by the Y-virus. It was a forced display. In an instant, a majority of the Stick Nation’s people knew about it.

[F*ck! This is just too disgusting!]

[OMG, here I was blindly going after Hyun-Min Kim. This is just disgusting!]

[This entertainment company is too evil. Such scumbags!]

[So Hyun-Min Kim was really that rude in China. How dare this vermin come back here asking for sympathy!]

[F*ck! We’ve been used by Hyun-Min Kim. This is what angered Hacker Y. This is an uncalled for calamity!]

[It’s Hyun-Min Kim that brought this upon us. All the losses are because of him! F*ck! That animal!]

[So all this is because of Hyun-Min Kim. That entertainment company is horrible as well. How dare they lie to the public. Shameless!]

In an instant, the target was shifted. The populace of the Stick Nation finally found an outlet, finally understanding where the problem was at. Hyun-Min Kim and the entertainment company immediately turned into the public enemy.

Without a doubt, they were done for. Due to their personal issues, the Stick Nation had to suffer such heavy losses. It would be considered lucky if they were not put to death. However, their doom was imminent.

That news quickly reached China. Hyun-Min Kim’s die hard fans were immediately dumbfounded. They looked at Hyun-Min Kim’s dark secrets in disbelief, then felt a chill run through them as a feeling of disgust welled up from within. Their brains finally returned to normal. Looking back at their past, they realized how stupid they had been.

In the afternoon…

The people of China lamented Hacker Y’s departure as they have not had enough fun yet. Regardless, the topic remained trending.

Right then, the International Computing Center made an announcement, stating the losses the Stick Nation suffered at the hands of the Y-virus.

The Stick Nation was naturally too ashamed to announce it themselves. However, they were unable to cover up that story as it was eventually made public.

Looking at the terrifying record of destruction and losses, everyone felt their hearts spasming. Even their eyes felt painful looking at it.

Quite a number of people estimated the Stick Nation to suffer a big loss. Some felt that it was just some simple virus. Even if it were difficult to deal with it would not be too destructive. However, the figure displayed truly shocked countless people to their core!
