Chapter 87 – 87. The Road to Incheon
As we carefully entered the house, the two people are still asleep, unaware of the upcoming future or anything else.
Women who have only recently become acquainted with me.
People who already want most of the group members to disappear.
Foodies gathering supplies for survival.
People who will die soon. Others who will die and not even leave a body behind.
It must be released. However, I couldn’t just leave this apartment and leave.
These women knew information about us, and they also had pretty good skills to throw away.
There is even an ability seal that can block one of the opponent’s skills, and a bodily fluid treatment that can create a healing fluid through saliva.
To be honest, if the two of them hadn’t acted like this several times in a row, they had skills that could have taken them to the end. Because they are people with interpersonal skills and healing skills.
However, they crossed the line.
Why didn’t these women follow basic etiquette in this situation?
Why did I make my colleagues hate me and how many times did I do something that would cause hatred?
Why did they vaguely think that everything would be fine without properly understanding their situation?
Maybe it’s because I’ve always lived like that.
I may have grown up to be such an arrogant person because I grew up in a warm family that did not impose any sanctions even if I behaved indifferently.
Yes, I hope all the stupid daughters in this world wake up. As a result of raising daughters, there are many cases where even the daughters turn out to be fools who don’t know anything about the world.
Of course, there are many cases where this is not the case. Perhaps this problem arises due to a combination of the growth environment and the individual’s nature.
I’ve been thinking about this for too long. It’s all because of random thoughts.
“…”
I have no intention of waking them up. I plan to send them away neatly, one at a time. Because these women who were bullied to death did not commit a huge mistake.
I prayed for the soul of those who joined our team for a short time, but now have to leave.
-Kwajik!!!
Mira Yu’s head flew off. The crushing blow from her old longsword killed her instantly, without her feeling any pain.
Kwasik–!
The same was true for Kim Su-yeon, who was tossing and turning after hearing the sound. Both of them probably didn’t even know they had died in their sleep.
“Ugh.. Fuck.”
Even though I have already seen the corpse of someone several times, I feel disgusted every time I see it. Moreover, when I thought that I had killed someone again today, I felt very sorry for the situation I was in in many ways.
I don’t know how many people are killed in one week. Was it due to stress that caused indigestion, or was it because of the shrimp fried rice I ate yesterday?
Now it’s just a story that has nothing to do with anything.
I just do what I have to do.
“What I have to do…”
Leading the group down to Gyeongnam. Finding family.
Cleanly kill the person you want to kill, and take their opportunity and turn it into your own.
Yes, that’s what I have to do.
There are no clear standards in that series of processes… But were there standards in this world in the first place?
“I want a deal..”
I wiped the blood splattered on my face with the back of my hand and called up a trading window made of human skin.
Soon, an infiji for trading appeared in the air with an ominous energy.
[2 of the spirit and body of an extraordinary human… Would you trade it for 3 stat points?]
“Deal.”
Soon after, the two headless bodies lying in the room disappeared.
It turns into dust and blows around the room. I didn’t want to breathe that dust, so I quickly got out.
-Boom!
The front door was closed. From now on, I will never return to this apartment again and open the front door of this house.
It was time to leave the apartment that had been our home for a while. It has a bitter aftertaste, but it can’t be helped.
Due to various conditions, I decided to ‘cult’ them, and in that way, they became the foundation for the growth of our group.
This is a story of survival with no room for morality, ethics, or humanity.
A story about how the rules of strong parenting were ruthlessly imposed on the weak.
As a predator, I ate two people who were prey. Now, all we have to do is move forward.
“The two of you…”
“Not anymore.”
“Aha..”
Lee Hee-jung looks up at me silently.
I asked, looking into her eyes that seemed somewhat empty.
“Why. If you want to say something, you can say it. “I won’t say anything.”
I asked Heejeong Lee. She stared at me for a moment and then opened her mouth.
“Did these two people die because they were useless?”
She asked in an emotionless tone.
I shook my head.
“It was worth using my abilities. But people were useless.”
Lee Hee-jung thought about my answer for a moment and then opened her mouth again.
“Then…Am I useful?”
I stopped speaking for a moment at that question.
Is Lee Hee-jeong worth using? Is it useless?
It was difficult to give an answer. I haven’t received any real help from her yet. Rather, she received my help.
Because I was the one who saved Lee Hee-jung, who was about to commit suicide. I saved him alive and brought him to him. I could have just killed him on the spot and gained the ability.
Of course, my state then was very different from my current state. At that time, I was in a more emotional and emotional state due to the overlapping penalties.
Anyway, there is no change in the fact that I saved Lee Hee-jung with my own hands at that time. I am at least partly responsible for her survival.
“You… Are useful. Because it didn’t cause any inconvenience. They follow me quietly and reticently.”
Yes, it’s still okay since I didn’t cause any inconvenience. There are still more than 10 spots left in the Infinite Labyrinth, and if I hand over a few of the skills I have, the value of Lee Hee-jeong, who has expanded vision, will increase tremendously.
“Is that so..”
In response to my answer, Lee Hee-jung stroked her chin and fell into trouble.
“So… I’m still in a usable condition?”
“Huh? Well.. Right.”
“What a relief. Because you won’t die in your sleep.”
Lee Hee-jung smiles and nods. It was eerie for some reason, but it didn’t seem immediately dangerous. She just seemed to feel some kind of superiority at the fact that I acknowledged her.
Do you feel some kind of pride in the fact that you were chosen by me?
“Uh.. Don’t you think anything about those two people dying?”
“Well… We live in an era where everyone is useless or unlucky and dies. In particular, my younger brother was tortured to death even though he had done nothing wrong. But those two people were hated and died cleanly, so aren’t they nobles? “I couldn’t even hear a scream.”
“Hmm…”
When it comes to the younger siblings of Lee Hee-jung, who was tortured to death for no reason and just for fun, Mi-ra Yoo and Soo-yeon Kim are perfect.
“I see.”
I just nodded. If Lee Hee-jeong himself was convinced, that would be the case.
I’m glad for something. Because this kid is a little lacking. Thanks to this, the trouble of persuading and convincing was saved.
“But uncle.”
“Huh?”
“Can’t you give me the skills I need to fight? “It’s a bit difficult to survive with expanded vision..”
“Skill? For a moment. “I have a skill that suits you.”
I looked at the status window.
I already had a few skills that could strengthen Lee Hee-jung.
“Hmm..”
The skills suited to Lee Hee-jung, who has expanded vision, were vision blocking, pain sharing, and ability sealing. These three skills are skills that have an effect on a designated target, that is, a target within sight.
Therefore, if Lee Hee-jung, who has vision expansion, gets stuck somewhere like a totem and starts using her abilities, the opponent has to feel the pain as his vision her her her is sealed.
“Should I also increase the pain…”
“Yes?”
“Ah. No. “I’m just talking to myself.”
“Yes.”
First of all, while blocking the other person’s view, it also blocks your own view. However, this is only a C-level skill that blocks vision, so if you raise it to B or A, that handicap will likely disappear.
Sharing pain may make you feel pity for the other person, but after using it myself, it wasn’t that bad.
Anyway, Ability Seal is a very good skill, so I decided to just use it myself, and I’ll give Lee Hee-jung the vision blocking and pain sharing skills that I didn’t have much time to use.
“Ah.. My hair is falling out..”
“I can’t help it. “Be patient.”
“Yes… But what is the increased pain?”
“This… Doubles the pain when attacking the other person… Is sharing pain ultimately treated as an attack? Does it also work for self-harm?”
“Aha… And this handle…”
“It’s an Astral Sword. If you insert a magic stone, a blade will appear. It hurts really bad, but it doesn’t actually leave any scars. “If you need to use pain sharing, you can inflict pain on the other person without getting hurt by stabbing yourself with it.”
“Hey.. But these are all skills that can only be used on people?”
These skills definitely have no use against zombies who cannot feel pain. However, the ghouls felt pain. Although they were insensitive, they seemed to feel pain more easily than zombies as their intelligence increased.
Therefore, it is definitely effective against bio-type enemies, humans, and ghouls.
“There will be something to write about. Still, your situation is better than Seunghee’s. Because unlike Uncle Junho, he didn’t get a single combat-related skill.”
“Oh, hehe. So, I gained skills in return for not having any support from my parents?”
“Well.. You can see it that way.. Anyway, let’s call the rest of the group and set off. “I have to go to Incheon.”
“Yes.”
Kang Ji-yeon already said that her family might be dead, but since she wasn’t sure, she decided to visit and look for traces of them. Because maybe he’s alive.
Of course, since there is a high possibility that they have not awakened, at that time, I plan to erase the handicap of skill theft (skills can only be transferred to awakened people) with a golden seal, force them to awaken, and then take them with them.
And this also applies to me and the rest of the family in our group. There is a high possibility that non-awakened people will turn into fanatics after hearing the ‘call’ when the night begins, so we need to awaken them by giving them skills in advance.
And in order to do that, it was necessary to hunt more awakened people and monsters with skills.
“Then I’ll bring Kang Ji-yeon out, so she just wait a moment.”
“I understand.”
I left Lee Hee-jung in the apartment hallway and entered the infinite labyrinth again.
Originally, we had planned to have Yu Mira and Kim Su-yeon guide us to Incheon and have Kang Ji-yeon conquer the labyrinth before we arrived, but since the two people died, Kang Ji-yeon had no choice but to guide us.
I hinted to Kang Ji-yeon last night that something like this could happen, so I hope she doesn’t get so shocked that she stops moving forward.
Since we plan to raise her as a vampire hunter through Geukyang Retard and Tae-Ryun Strike, Kang Ji-yeon has a fairly important role in our team.
******
“…”
“…”
“…”
Me, Kang Ji-yeon, and Lee Hee-jung walked down the street in silence.
I was currently holding a handkerchief in her mouth to keep her from talking to herself, Lee Hee-jung did not say much at first, and Kang Ji-yeon looked pitiful at the deaths of Yoo Mira and Kim Soo-yeon.
Of course, finding her own family was more important than the deaths of the two people, so Kang Ji-yeon did not say anything. To put it bluntly, thanks to the deaths of Yoo Mira and Kim Soo-yeon, Kang Ji-yeon has more time to find her family.
The deaths of those two were beneficial in many ways.
Anyway, we walked for about two hours and arrived smoothly near a large supermarket called Home Market in Geumcheon-gu.
And there we discovered something.
“Hehe.. Hey.. That… Heejeong, can you see that?”
“Yes. Wait a minute. Uh..? That’s… A human head… Wow… “
“What the fuck… Isn’t it all hair over there…? Crazy bastards..”
Severed human heads were skewered and displayed throughout large supermarkets.
Something had settled there. Even the closer the zombies got, the louder the zombies cried. It also seemed like human screams could be heard, albeit slightly.
When I looked, it seemed like the ghouls had settled down in a group.
“We don’t have time to deal with them right now… And it would be difficult to catch them on our own. Let’s quickly turn around and pass by.”
“Yes..”
“Wow… Yes…”
We marked Geumcheon-gu Home Market on the map.
It’s dangerous over there.
There is something.
