Chapter 105 – The Mysterious Church (1)

The day after Ha-jin returned to the shelter with Kim Hyeon-joon.
In other words, a day after Cho Ye-ri, who had a helping hand for recovery, joined the shelter, Ji-hoon Kim, Joo-hyuk Kwon, and Jackson, who were lying in bed, brushed off their injuries and woke up from the hospital bed.
Of course, the scars from serious injuries have not been completely erased.

“Wow, great! It doesn’t hurt at all!”
“Me too! Me too! It’s really the best, Mr. Yeri!”
“Thanks. Thank you so much John Matang.”
“Thank you so much, thank you so much! And isn’t jonmattang a word used in times like this?! Who the hell are you learning Korean from?”
“Little kids yesterday. However… Black type. I am black What is it?”
“… You do not have to know.”
“I need some education…”

To Jackson, who is black, the word black brother is a racist word, so Kim Ji-hoon and Kwon Joo-hyuk did not bother to teach them the meaning of the word.
And when they turned their heads to thank Ye-Ri Cho for treating them once again, Ye-Ri Cho, who had been sitting in a chair just a moment ago, was lying on the cold floor sweating profusely.

“Are you okay?”
“Hey!”
“Are you okay?”
“Ha… Ha… Ha… Are you okay… It’s okay if you sleep like this for a while and wake up…”

Attributes that can heal others, including the healing touch, are accompanied by stamina consumption, as noted in the description.
It also consumes a lot of stamina… It was a loss of stamina that could even lead to death.
That’s why, starting with Minseo, Jooha, Kim Jihoon, Kwon Juhyuk, Jackson, and more than 20 other injured people were treated nonstop throughout the day. Yeri Cho was so tired that she had no strength to even lift a finger, but she couldn’t rest in peace.

“Excuse me… How is my little brother…”
“… “

Jo Ye-ri, who had been closing her eyes to get some sleep at the words of Kwon Joo-hyuk, who came out of her worried mind, raised her body as she recalled the eyes she had struggled to close.

“Could you please call your little brother?”
“Yes! I’ll call you soon!”

It took less than 5 minutes for Kwon Joo-hyeok to bring Joo-ha after leaving the medical room.
Thanks to this, Jo Ye-ri, who really took a break, sent everyone except Min-seo, who came with her Ju-ha, out of the infirmary, but her brother, Kwon Joo-hyuk, did not go out until the end.

“Your brother is leaving… “
“I am your brother! I have an obligation to check your status! And why don’t you show it to your brother! You can show it to Minseo, but oppa can’t?!”
“… That’s disgusting…”
“Would I be disgusted to see my sister’s face?! Stop talking nonsense!”
“… “
“Yes, Juha. It’s the first time Joo Hyuk oppa is so stubborn. Since you’re worried that much, let’s just get treatment comfortably. It’ll be all right anyway, won’t it?”
“… “

If it was said that it was not cured, she would not have shown it to anyone except for Min-seo, who checked her condition for the first time and has always been by her side.
But because she said that Joey Li can cure it.
She said that she could cure it in front of Ha-jin, who threatened to kill her, so she believed it to be true and pulled down the thin cloth covering her face.

Swoop-

A row of deep scars under her eyes and across the back of her nose, but these scars were not the end.
A line of deep scars running across the face, slightly cutting through the upper lip, and another line of deep scars below the lower lip.
A total of three lines of scars.
Juha’s condition was so bad that he himself was afraid to look at his own face, and he never looked in the mirror except for the first time after he was injured.

Awesome!!!

“Take good care.”
“Brother… “

He insisted on showing himself, but Kwon Joo-hyeok, who values ​​Juha’s life more than his own, didn’t have the confidence to face Juha’s changed face for even one more second.
Not because Juha’s injured face was horrible, but because he was terribly pitiful and hateful beyond being so angry at himself for not protecting his younger brother.
He tried harder than anyone else to become stronger to protect his younger brother, but stronger monsters and stronger people appeared as if they always laughed at his efforts.
It always has been.
And Ha-jin, who could be said to be her goal, became two steps away when she followed one step, and four steps away when she followed two steps.

“Fuck… “

Kwak!!!

Kwon Joo-hyeok, who came out of the hallway with his head down and his clenched fists trembling, heard the voice of Ye-ri Cho, who should be in the infirmary.

“Excuse me… I have something to tell you…”
“Whoa… Please tell me.”
“I… Therefore… I don’t think I’ll be able to completely heal your brother’s scar… I’ll try as far as I can, but I don’t think I can help with the scars to some extent…”
“What is that… “

Kwon Joo-hyeok knew it too.
Jo Ye-ri said that her Ju-Ha’s scars could be completely cured.
Hajin told me not to worry and she dared to come and tell me about it.
However, Joo-hyeok Kwon, who was confused at Ye-ri Cho’s statement that the scars could not be healed overnight, grabbed Ye-ri Cho’s shoulders and shouted, unable to hold back his anger.

“What bullshit is that?! You said you could do it yourself!!”
“Sah, I did it because I wanted to live..! I want to live… Because if you don’t do it, you will die… So…”

Kwon Joo-hyeok, who seemed to lose all strength in his body, grabbed the crotch of Ye-ri Cho’s pants while kneeling on the floor.

“Please… Please fix my brother… Please…”
“My, what can I do…!”
“What am I supposed to do?! I’ll do anything you ask! So please fix our Juha…”

Grabbing the crotch of someone who says no and begging.
Now this was the best Kwon Joo-hyeok could do.
Until now.

“If you say so… It’s dangerous, but I think there’s a way to cure your brother… “
“What?! What is it?! I will do anything!”
“That is… “

***

“Lia’s sister.”
“Huh?”
“Are you really twenty?”
“Huh.”
“Nonsense… Do you have any sensitivity?”
“… “

At the request of one of the high school students, Iria takes out her ID from her pink wallet and hands it over.

“Hey, great… It’s real… How is Leah noona two years older than you? Does this make sense?”
“Why are you tripping on me! You are! If someone you don’t know sees it, they’ll think that Lia is your nephew, old man!”
“Inspiration?! Why am I an inspiration!”
“If you don’t know, go and look in the mirror.”
“Oh, Mr..!”
“Elementary school or high school… Aren’t you guys quiet?!”
“Sorry… “
“He started a fight first… I’m sorry brother…”

With masks covering the mouths of five elementary school commandos, high school students are now going crazy.
Everyone can protect themselves to the extent that they can talk like this while moving, but there is no need to create troublesome things by attracting the attention of zombies and monsters.
She’s not out on her hunt now, she’s on her way to fulfilling her promise she made with Min-jin-ah yesterday, so she has to work it out quickly and get her school uniform and put it on Iria.
Of course, she, Iria, has no idea why she is moving with this group.

“By the way, sister. What is your relationship with Ha Jin-hyung?”
“Are you not in any relationship?”
“Really? Aren’t you my boyfriend?”
“No.”
“How do you know that?”
“The men told me yesterday that Hajin has a girlfriend. That’s four people. Two of them are Americans.”
“Really? Whoa, great… I’m jealous… After all, a man must be capable. I’m not that handsome…”
“… “

If those kids are going to gossip about people, don’t let them hear it.
Anyway, if he didn’t know, why is he glaring at me like that?
Wow, that expression is cute too.
Iria, who was glaring at me with her cute face while slightly biting her lower lip, apologized to the high school students who surrounded her for a moment before coming to where I was.

“Hey, Kang Ha-jin.”
“Oh, are you still Kang Ha-jin? You can call me brother.”
“No, I do not want. We’re not close, but my brother is burdensome. But why did you bring me?”
“It’s just~ And even if you stay at the shelter anyway, you’ll be all alone in agony. Isn’t it nice that you’re not lonely because you’re out together like this?”
“I have friends too?!”
“Because they’re busy dating, aren’t they? Don’t disturb me and stay by my side.”
“… Why do I have to stick by my brother’s side…”
“Because I picked you up. You are mine.”
“Chi..! Don’t talk like that! I’m not a thing, and I’m not Kang Ha-jin’s!”
“At first everyone says so.”
“Hey! Jeon… “
“Careful.”

I stretched out my left arm around Iria’s waist and held her in her arms. I turned her to her right and raised her bone knife upwards.

Awesome!!

Whipper’s arm being severed.
Ah, Whipper is the name given to that monster with stretched arms.
I didn’t eat the gum gum fruit, and it’s growing well.
Aren’t you going to throw fireballs like Ace?

“Let go, let go… “
“Nope? And don’t look away. If you get hurt… “
“What if I get hurt…”
“I can’t catch you today. Wow~”
“… Let go of this!!!”

Puck!!

Iria, her face flushed red, pushed me hard as if hitting my chest and slipped out of her arms.

“It’s true, all smooth faces have personalities.”

Iria, who quickly hid herself among the high school students, bought her own zip-up hoodie and put it on in this hot weather. It wasn’t enough to zip her up all the way, so she tightened the straps of the hat she was wearing as well, leaving only her face behind. Covered the body of
If so, I’ll have to take that off and put on my school uniform.

“Brother, you shouldn’t treat women like that. It is a crime.”
“The crime is to prey on high school students like you. And don’t nag. Even though the law has disappeared, it can be eaten up.”
“Low quality… Pervert… “

Gently swinging the palm of her hand and pushing back Min Jin-ah’s head, who was rolling her eyes, I took the lead, catching up with the elementary commandos who were punching the road ahead.

“Okay, we’ll be there in five minutes. Take good care of Iria.”

Chuck Chuck Chuck!

The elementary school special forces who responded with a salute instead of answering my words because they had sealed their mouths with masks slipped to the back and pushed away the high school students surrounding Iria, forming an escort formation, and I quickly jumped forward and struck a bone knife.

“Wooooo!!!”

Awesome!!

“Now you can’t even take a bite.”

Even though he continued to grow stronger, the gap with Eater, whose body splits vertically, widened to the point where it felt like a zombie.
The battle awakening from Yoon Chae-won, the sprint that evolved after killing monsters, the zombies and monsters that were horribly killed while looking for Kim Hyun-joon, and the agility stat that exceeded 30 with coins obtained while killing several elementary school students and even Lee Won-woo.

『Name: Kang Ha-jin (27)
Height: 183 cm Weight: 77 kg
Attributes: Physical Awakening (B), Strength (C), Combat Awakening (B), Sprint (B)
Coins: 208
[Strength Lv.29] [Agility Lv.31] [Stamina Lv.25] [Luck Lv.10]』

By the time we get back to the shelter today, her strength should be at 30.
So now I’ll just set my strength to 30 and stop the main stats for a while.
I need to find out if the luck of level 20 throws a trait like level 10, or if there is another power.
A total of 3700 coins.
Assuming that you hunt hard, you should be able to hit level 20 in two days at the earliest, or three or four days at the latest.
If I do well, I might be able to take level 30 strength and level 20 luck today.
Anyway, what kind of guys are they that even need my help?
They should be able to defeat most guys…

“Why, why do you look at me like that..? No way… My, just put your hands on my body! I will bite my tongue and die!!”
“Under… Nope, really Aren’t you hungry enough for me to touch you?”
“What..? I should be happy, but why do I feel bad? What did you mean by that?!”
“It means to live while looking in the mirror.”
“Chi..! What am I doing!!”

She arrived at her destination 5 minutes earlier than the expected time thanks to Min Jin-ah, who came running screaming and beat a bunch of zombies by her side.
A church located about 300 meters away from the high school where she first met elementary and high school students.
As a condition for helping me save Kim Hyeon-joon, Min Jin-ah put forward her family and friends who were being held captive by the church.

“Are you here?”
“Yes, here it is.”
“Hmm… Before we get into it, let’s make one thing clear. Is there really anything in here? I went in and there were a lot of people who were terribly strong, or they were armed with guns.”
“No. I bumped into people out hunting until yesterday morning, but most of them were weaker than us. Of course, there are some people that we can’t handle.”
“Then why are you asking me? Because of those tough people?”
“That is… “
“I can’t kill people. If you try to go inside, they will risk their lives, but we can’t possibly kill people. That’s why I’m asking my brother.”

I glanced at the male student who told me the real reason why he dared to ask me like this on behalf of Min Jin-ah, who was having a hard time talking, and I nodded her head.
If that’s the reason, it’s understandable enough.

“Hey Hajin oppa… “
“Why?”
“I only need to kill one person. We think he brainwashed everyone with his strange traits.”
“Who is that?”
“He is what people call the head teacher. We’ve never seen it either.”
“Okay. But how do you get inside? I blocked everything like that.”
“If you knock, the door will open.”
“Sincerity?”
“Yes, come with me. You guys are here.”
“Yes, be careful.”
“Ugh!!”
“You guys too. I’ll be back soon.”

Leaving behind the sullen figure of No. 1, Min Jin-ah and I moved towards the church with iron plates attached to each window like some kind of tank.
And when Min Jin-ah’s hand, which was lifted slowly, knocked on the iron door that seemed to have been made by herself…

Thump thump!!
Kiik-

The iron door opened with an unpleasant sound, and two people covered in white cloth greeted us.
Hmm… I don’t go to church, but do you normally wear something like that?

“You are my sister. Did you come here today for the same reason?”
“Yes, let me see my mom and her brother. I want to talk to you directly.”
“It is impossible. Then I’ll just close the door… Heck!!”

My left hand stretched out in front of me and grabbed the neck of the guy who was trying to close the door, claiming that he would not be able to visit me.

“My family is here, but can’t we visit them?”
“What are you doing?!”
“Do something like this.”

Whiiik- Kwajik!!!!

Shrugging my shoulder, my fist pierced the face of the guy screaming from the side, and my left hand, which was holding his neck, swung to the side and threw the so-called no-visit guy through the iron door.
Then I turned her head to Min Jin-ah who was blinking in surprise and said with a calm face.

“Let’s go in. I got a visit.”
“… The people who just had a hard time… “
“Oh yeah? I didn’t know let’s go anyway And if you save your mother and younger sister, will they give you school uniforms?”
“… Yes…”

So we went into the church.
Of course, with the open iron door closed to prevent zombies from pouring in.

Thud!!!!
