Chapter 55 – The Age of Reason (6)

Age of Reason (6)

The lecture hall sank without a single sound of breathing due to primary color swear words.

I turned around and grabbed the zombie corpse strewn in front of the classroom door.

Took-!

Ah-reum Kim rolled on the floor on my shoulder as I pushed away the body of Ah-reum Kim who was standing stupidly in front of the door.

“…”

Without even the slightest scream, with a white face, I pushed the ground to avoid the corpse I was dragging, a pitiful gesture.

Even at that moment, as if the pain was clear, he fell and clung to her twisted wrist.

I shuddered – I threw the zombie corpse with a clear dragging sound right in the middle of the crowd of women.

“Kyaaha ah!”

A high-pitched scream broke the silence for the first time.

Based on the zombie corpses, the formation of women split like the Red Sea.

Oooh ah-!

After that, the women’s retching that came one after another.

Thick gastric juices flowed down the floor at the state of the corpse, which was so miserable that it was difficult to see even in a gore movie.

“From now on, the years that close their eyes will lag behind me.”

The bitches who had closed their eyes at my warning opened their eyes so narrowly that they couldn’t even see them.

Oooh ah-!

Then he lowered his head again and started gagging again and again.

“It’s really funny as a dog. Now, the four years old are peacefully chewing the cud at the zombies I threw—”

I continued, pointing my finger outside the classroom door.

“The bastards outside either freak out and run away or take up crude weapons.”

“That’s what it means when a corpse rises again. The meaning of a person dying becomes ambiguous.”

I carefully scanned the limbs of the zombie corpse that was lying on the floor.

The appearance that there is not a single part left that is already intact.

However, even in that state, the monster called ‘zombie’ does not die or stop.

It does not stop running toward its prey until its head is smashed.

“There are dozens or hundreds of zombies with that appearance walking around outside.”

I recalled the sight of the front gate, which is associated with the word outside, and laughed.

“Not only that, but there’s a monster that doesn’t even look like a zombie perched at the front door.”

I looked at the girls’ trembling pupils and tapped my temples.

“I’ve said this far, but still can’t figure out the situation, you bastards?”

I pointed the metal pipe at the zombie corpse.

“What can bitches do in this fucking world who play games on backward zombie corpses?”

“What can our female college students, who have studied very hard for 10 years and entered university, do!”

“What the fuck, are you going to be a private tutor?!”

A group of female students bowed their heads at the shouts that rang the ceiling as if intimidating.

“I’m seriously mistaken about something—this isn’t a deal between you and me, you motherfuckers.”

Their bodies trembled again at the harsh voice that came out as they scratched their necks.

“Now, as human beings, you all have to decide whether or not to accept the least amount of goodwill I can offer you.”
“…”

A group of female college students with their heads down with watery eyes.

I stared closely at them as they trembled like strangely docile sheep.

Perhaps this atmosphere was created by the combination of the specializations ‘Tyrant on a White Horse’ and ‘vulgar dignity’ that compensated for fear.

However, I shook my head lightly, recalling the words of the strike team member who had begged me to leave after I disappeared.

Doesn’t that also mean that I don’t know what those women will do if I disappear somewhere?

Also-

An example was needed.

Really—nothing was easily passed on without an example.

Thud- thud-

I felt the eyes of the women who had been keeping their mouths shut at the sound of footsteps quietly echoing in the lecture hall.

“Hey.”

I said while looking down at Areum Kim, who was still sitting on the floor without going out.

“You haven’t left yet, what are you doing here?”

Took-!

Kim Ah-reum moves backwards, pushing the floor again at the kick that lightly touches her leg.

I laughed out loud at the exact opposite of what I needed to do to leave this classroom.

“This bitch, this is a very funny bitch.”

Kim Ah-reum’s face is getting closer to her slightly lowered waist.

Her black eyes trembled loudly from side to side on a pure white face that had already lost all the blood.

“I told you to wait inside, so I said go out, then when I told you to leave, I crawled inside.”

Took-!

I spoke again to Kim Ah-reum, who was surprised like a rabbit at her kicking her legs again.

Hey.

“What do you see me as?”

Her lips just tremble at my question.

“Now I want to fuck you, so I look like older brothers from the department who are in heat?”

“Do you think if I show a tough temper, will you listen to everything and buy me a drink tonight?”

Kim Ah-reum’s psychology that you can understand without looking at the underlying psychology.

No, I already knew the psychology of all the women here right now.

It is a fucking collaboration between the decision disorder that every woman has and the dependent personality disorder, which is ‘wanting that someone solves her problems for her’.

In the meantime, a very childish complaint that pops out.

“Why? It was so scary and I wanted to run away anywhere, but when I suddenly saw a zombie corpse, I came to my senses.”
“…”
“If you don’t answer my words from now on, I’ll rip you out of your mouth.”
“… Yes yes.”

Ah-reum Kim’s mouth was finally pierced by my warning.

“So are you going to leave or not?”
“… Sin, sin, sorry.”

A smirk formed again at the words that were barely uttered from his swaying lips.

It was a sudden apology, but it was clear what the apology meant.

“Just looking at it, they go through such a fucking situation because they said they would take care of the bitches who would become zombies in a day or starve to death on the street.”
“…”
“How many minutes of my precious time have you wasted now because of your whining, which changes so easily?”
“…”

Took-!

I kicked her leg roughly and asked again.

“How many minutes, you bitch.”
“… 5, 5 minutes? 10 minutes? Now, I don’t know, sorry, sorry—”

Kim Ah-reum responds to my urging with the sound of a goat full of water.

“Seeing you say you’re sorry, do you think you know what’s wrong?”
“Yeah—sorry, sorry—”
“Then you should be punished.”

Kim Ah-reum becomes dumb again at my answer.

I looked down directly into her face and said to her pupils.

“Since you said you wouldn’t go out, you are my camper. My campmates get their due when they do something wrong, any complaints?”

A shrug of the shoulder that comes out of the way to say if you have a complaint.

“…”

She did not express her disagreement even as she pursed her lips shallowly in an expression of her anxiety.

I nodded her head at her answer and straightened her lower back.

Then he stretched out the leg that had been touching her leg and stepped on her face.

Thud-!

In an instant, Kim Ah-reum’s upper body touched the floor in a straight line, and a shallow shock sound leaked out from the back of her head.

Her face distorted ugly as my footsteps lightly stomped left and right.

“Uh-uhh-“

Her startled screams were blocked by the soles of her shoes and hovered in her place.

I smiled lightly as I watched her ponytail, crushed to the floor, sway wildly in many ways.

“Bitches who can do nothing but suck on my food like pigs have stiff heads.”
“Uhhhhh-“

I stepped on her head with a little more force in my kicks.

Her hands scrambled to catch my feet, paralyzed by the increasingly high pressure of her feet.

“If you move even slightly while being punished, your head will be crushed.”

Both hands trembled at my warning and slowly descended.

I bent down a little more and looked down at her eyes, which were only half exposed by my feet.

Why.

“You think I can’t?”

At my question, her already tear-stained face desperately shook her head from side to side.

“I told you not to move.”
“…”

Kim Ah-reum stiffens her neck, holding back the cry that is about to burst out at the ensuing whisper.

“Uh b- b yup-“

I stepped on her face in a circular motion and looked toward the classroom door.

A swollen face quietly watching this scene in front of the strike team.

“Hey, big conversation.”

As he called my name, he gasped at the twitching of his fingers and arrived in front of me.

The palm of my hand pulled back towards his swollen blue cheek.

Damn-!

“Without me, you should have managed the classroom on your own.”

With a single gesture, the guy who had fallen to the ground hurriedly stood up.

Damn-!

“What is the classroom like? Are you grumbling like the girls?”
“… Oh, it’s broken!”

Damn-!

Bang Dae-hwa gets up again while rolling on the ground in the palm of his hand that keeps hitting him.

Every time he rolls on the floor, the eyes of a group of female students close tightly, probably because of his unique ability to empathize.

Took-!

A line of blood flowed between his lips as if his cheek had burst again.

I patted him on the cheek and dragged him closer.

“Why do you think it would be okay to fry your dear younger siblings?”
“… Sorry.”

I stared alternately at Ah-reum Kim, whose face was distorted by my feet, and Dae-hwa Bang, who was grabbed by the collar, and then I saw the group of female students again.

“Give me 5 seconds for the last time.”

Those who will leave will go out, and those who will remain will stay.

“Bitches who don’t need the minimum amount of goodwill I give them can just leave. If there’s a bastard blocking it, I’ll take care of it, so I’ll take care of it until the 5 seconds have been counted.”

5.

Unraveling Bang Dae-hwa’s collar, he showed five fingers to them.

4.

I folded my fingers and swung around the entire classroom.

3.

Just trembling as if their legs were frozen, and a zombie corpse shattered in front of them.

2.

And a little further ahead, I am setting a female student and a male student as examples.

One.

A small smile leaked out spontaneously at the sight of no one stepping forward.

In the first place, I told them to make a choice, but I never asked them to refuse.

“…”

I looked at them as if they had nailed them in place and put my folded fingers together.

Took-!

“You wake up now too.”

Kim Ah-reum staggered and stood up from the kick that lightly kicked her head.

Her unkempt features, glistening with tears and dirt from the soles of my shoes.

I moved a little closer and gently caressed the tears and something black that was smeared on her face.

Even when I touch her, she just clenches her fists and makes her tremble.

“You’re not going to do anything worthy of punishment in the future, are you?”
“…”
“You have to answer, beautiful.”

In response to the low question, Ah-reum Kim opened her lips and answered ‘yes’.

After I finished wiping her face, I turned around and patted her on the back.

Her ponytail continued to sway as she slowly walked towards the group of girls, staggering greatly at my touch.

“What are you doing? Make a line in roughly two lines.”

The conversation in the room immediately moved as if her tail was on fire at the command she gave as she waved her hand at the girls.

The female students who were sloppily lined up in two lines in line with the leadership of the strike team, no, now my camp members.

“Good.”

I nodded my head, glancing lightly at the camp members who were ready to set off.

“Now we move to the place that will be your new home.”

Awesome profit!

The classroom door opens lightly with dry information delivery.

I followed and looked at the camp members who moved their feet in a hurry and swung around the classroom for the last time.

The fragrant candles still swaying with light embers and the walls of the lecture hall with cracks in the iron pipes.

And I walked out of the liberal arts classroom on the second floor, glancing at Sung Jong-hyun’s corpse, which I couldn’t see anymore, probably because it was scattered in the aisle next to the classroom.

Tuck – tuck –

The sound of the footsteps that followed as I descended the stairs, rattling the metal pipe-clap-was very loud.

The sound of breathing and pain of the camp members who are flagship at the traces of zombies spread all over the wall.

I sighed spontaneously and raised my head to the ceiling at the vibration of those slender, trembling legs that I could feel so far.

The strike team hurries the female students, frightened by my appearance.

Even so, there were a lot of female students shedding tears, covering their mouths with both hands from the blood that decorated the hallway on the first floor.

The scenery of the university, which is now familiar to me, seemed to the girls the evidence of a shocking disaster more than anything else.

Dead bodies of zombies strewn across the hallway on the first floor.

Seeing the corpse, I went down the familiar stairs again, listening to the breathing of the camp members.

Exactly the opposite direction I ran to navigate the front door.

I moved to the back of the College of Humanities and lightly jumped over the wall of the parking lot where Koh Koh Gong-hun whimpered and held my hand.

“One by one.”

Reluctant to my instructions- the camp members begin to hold my hand tightly with both trembling hands.

Similar to Goh Jang-hun, I pulled them over the wall one by one and looked around.

Zombie bastards who haven’t revealed themselves to me yet.

Thanks to that, a fairly peaceful transportation continued, but it didn’t seem to be the case for them.

A very deep, sticky silence where not even the sound of a bird chirping could be heard.

Female students were busy looking at the university, which had changed drastically, with eyes full of anxiety.

I pulled up the Bang Daehwa, which was at the back end, up the wall and stood at the head of the campers again.

Jerk-jerk-

A forest road between the College of Humanities and College of Education where you can’t even hear the cries of grasshoppers.

While walking on a very well-established promenade-

‘Whehehe—’ He frowned slightly at the noise that made his body itch itself no matter how many times he heard it.

“Uweeeeek-!”

And then the nauseous sound that starts to follow one after another.

The camp members who saw the zombie corpse, whose decay had progressed to a great extent, began pouring out a full amount of the acid that made their esophagus sting again.

“Whether you vomit or not, keep your feet moving.”

A nonchalant voice urged them quietly, whether or not there was a commotion behind them.

I scrutinized the surroundings and ran along the promenade at a steady pace.

After passing through the signs leading to the College of Education and the Central Library, we were greeted again by the new building of the College of Education.

I chinned the campers towards the row of car barricades that greeted us like a red carpet.

The camp members stop for a moment after discovering a long road barricade.

Unknowingly, a new house formed in their slightly opened mouths and their pupils as they slowly climbed the barricade.

A view of the library, protected by two rows of vehicle barricades and blackout curtains.

As I was walking towards the main entrance of the library, which was the only one not surrounded by a vehicle barricade, I let out a blank laugh.

A cunning face peering out through the lightly folded blackout curtains.

It was because those glazed eyes found me and found them wide open.

In a gasp, Koh Goh-hoon disappears behind the blackout curtain.

“Aigoo, director, niii!”

Soon after, Koh Goh-hoon jumped out of the wide open front door.

“Aigoo–you don’t know how worried I was all night wondering if something really happened, Director!”

The face of a guy who hurriedly bends over and weeps in front of me.

It wasn’t a very nice sight, so he quickly looked away.

“What are you worried about? What did you ask me to do?”
“Hehe – don’t worry about that. I just scratched everything that looked useful in the new building of the College of Education, hehe-“

In response to my question, Goh Goh-Hun regains his original cunning face and rubs his hands together.

“Rather than that, go inside. The camp members who couldn’t sleep at night due to the director’s absence are waiting for the director to lose their voices and eyes, hehe!”

Not paying attention to the 20 or so new campers standing behind, Goh Goh, bent over, pointed at the front door with both hands.

Even in the eyes of the new campers who were staring at him with their eyes wide open, his expression did not show a moment of distraction.

Realizing once again that he was a crazy bastard who could only come out in admiration, he shook his head lightly.

“Chief!”

Entering the lobby of the library beyond the main gate, a quite unfamiliar scene welcomes you.

Furniture and food that seemed to be left uncarried up yet.

The boxes filling the lobby and the campers waiting for me were full of sight.

The moment our eyes met Cha Seol-hee, who was looking at me with her legs crossed in the middle of the female campers-

Belt ring –

At the same time as the notification sound that overlapped in an instant, the message that the camp members’ ‘submission’ status was renewed to ‘submission’ disturbed my eyes.

When I turned my head, the new camp members were staring at the lobby with blank eyes.

It meant that they were convinced that I was not lying when they saw the real evidence.

[A person with special powers obeys your command.]

[The so-called ‘tyrant’ responds.]

[You have acquired the military authority.]

[From now on, all military authority led by the ‘tyrant’ will be integrated into the royal authority.]

[Kingdom: 130 -〉 160]

A message pops out the moment you stare at Bang Dae-hwa, who was looking at the lobby with a swollen face.

I smiled a little at the discovery of a new factor affecting the throne.

And after I got Bonnie’s library completely, I remembered that there was a part called Unlocked Elements in the message list.

[Lead more people, secure more territory, and command more troops.]

The status window message has now been changed to a sentence indicating ‘Byeonggwon’ rather than an un-unlocked element.

I waved my hand forward with a smile that did not disappear from the corner of my mouth.

“Kim Woo-jung!”

Kim Woo-jung, who smiled brightly at my name, ran to me.

Chin-!

When I lightly put a shoulder strap on him, Kim Woo-jung naturally lowered his waist slightly and maintained a low posture.

“Seeing that you’re still alive, do you think you can survive a zombie or two without me?”
“Uh- thank you so much, the priest cleaned up and left, so I haven’t met a zombie since then.”

Along with an awkward smile, he nodded his head like a habit and made a crooked gesture.

“What, did you move your luggage hard?”
“Ah! No wonder! I really worked hard enough to break my back!”
“The bastard is about to break his waist just because he gave me a little praise—”

Took-!

Kim Woo-jung smirking at the lightly slapped shoulder and bowing his head.

I shook my head slightly and smiled at him.

“If you’ve worked so hard, it’s time for me to keep my promise.”

His lips parted spontaneously at the soft voice.

I grabbed him by the shoulder with one hand and gently turned his body around.

The new camp members I met with Kim Woo-jung.

Kim Woo-jung’s eyes as she looked at the camp members were too bright.

Like a child receiving a Christmas present.

On the other hand, the faces of the new camp members facing Kim Woo-jung’s eyes were dark.

Looking at the library lobby, a face that is relieved but somehow uneasy.

The camp members who sensed something, but kept their mouths shut.

As I looked at their faces, for some reason, the face of the only man I hadn’t brought with me came to mind.

Professor Jonghyun Seong.

The expression on his face when he looked at me and shouted irrationality, saying that he had no reason to kill himself, suddenly did not leave his head.

Also, a question crosses his face.

At that time, I killed him at once, thinking of a nonsensical bullshit, but–

I’m a bit curious now.

If you had asked him what rationality was in the first place, how would he have responded?

‘But on the other hand, there are histories that can only be understood now that science has advanced and people have a very high level of basic education. Before exploring the oceans, the earth was flat…’

Thud-! Thud-! Thud-! Thud-!

Seong Jong-hyun’s lecture was interrupted by the sudden invasion of zombies.

I finished the lecture and finished his speech instead.

Just like those who thought the Earth was flat before exploring the oceans realized that wasn’t true.

Just as I realized that the earth is round and is a speck of dust in a very distant and distant universe.

Logic and logic have always changed their masks to suit the times.

The rationality of using a new mask every time to a new fact.

Eh eh eh!

Nothing was different this time.

A zombie who forcibly ended Professor Seong Jong-hyun’s class.

That undeniable new fact has appeared–

Humanity must start a struggle as a species that has never been done before.

“What are you doing?”

Kim Woo-jung’s eyes hurriedly raised her head at my question and stared at me.

I looked into his eyes and smiled lightly.

As always, rationality puts on a new mask for new facts.

Not so grandiose, not so fair—

But for the fifty or so survivors inside, it’s more than life.

A new thing that only I can put forward.

“Choose anyone.”

Age of rationality.
