Chapter 2490 – 2490. The Devil’s Game

Suddenly the world slowed down.

My concentration increased without me even realizing it. Rather, it went well. Now that I have more time to think.

‘Is it a trap?’

It could be a sophisticated trap to identify the murderer. The moment I admit that I am a murderer, Shin Do-hyun’s gun turns and fires. No matter how powerful the enemy is, it is difficult to respond when the opponent has a gun.

‘This concentration… No, since you have the ability to focus, can you respond? Even if I can’t avoid bullets, I guess I just need to avoid the muzzle.’

No. It’s not the first thing to think about fighting.

If Eugene Myung’s words are not a trap but the truth. This is something that I also welcome. Assuming it isn’t a trap, I only see the benefits.

‘Eu Jin-myeong has been looking at me since a while ago. This can’t be a coincidence. ‘You know that I am a murderer.’

How?

I don’t know either. Maybe you have advice skills like me. If you use the advice ability, you will be able to find out the murderer right away.

‘… If Eugene Myung knows my identity, there is only one option. You will have to deal with all five people here.’

If the premise that Eugene Myung knew my identity was correct, then this was a deal Eugene Myung offered me.

What’s important is whether I believe in Eugene Myung.

I broke into a cold sweat as it was a life-threatening task.

And I came to a conclusion.

“I am a murderer.”

Proudly declared a murderer! Everyone’s eyes were on me. Should I say that I am fortunate? Shin Do-hyeon’s gun is still aimed at Oh Geun-seong.

This means it wasn’t a trap. Shin Do-hyun and Bae Hyun-soo didn’t even flinch. It means that they knew that I was a murderer.

“Eu Jinmyeong. “How did you know I was a murderer?”

“I’ll tell you later. First, kill Oh Geun-seong. The sin of murder… We will all bear this together. From this moment on, we all become murderers. We have completed our commitment.”

“Now, wait! Now that the murderer has been revealed, shouldn’t we just kill the murderer!! Jo Na-young! Don’t you think so too, Jo Na-young?!”

Oh Geun-seong shouted in a panic.

“Well, that is.”

Jo Na-young’s eyes move here and there. She seemed to be busy looking at people’s opinions.

“Ah, Jo Na-young, you weren’t prepared. Then, you will have to choose here. Will he be our colleague, or will he be with Oh Geun-seong until the end? It looks like their relationship is less than friends… Do you need to worry?”

“Jo, Jo Na-young. Haven’t we overcome adversity together?”

Oh Geun-seong’s voice trembled. It seems to appeal to pity. It has a shabby atmosphere that is unbecoming of its size. Jo Na-young seemed to have made a decision due to his weak appearance.

“… Not together, right? The reason we were able to survive there… It was because I was lucky. Because we ran and hid when others died. And I also saw Oh Geun-seong push a person to Jang Hwi-chun and throw him as bait and run away.”

“Well, that couldn’t be helped. How do you fight Zhang Huichun, who has a sword in both hands? Even if I was a Taekwondo player, fighting a sword-armed Jang Hwi-chun would be suicide!”

Hmm. That’s right. If he kicks you, just cut his leg and that’s it. Moreover, the other person is not an ordinary person, but Jang Hwi-chun.

“I don’t mean to criticize Oh Geun-seong. Because that choice was a choice for survival. So, I too will make a choice for survival. Because I also have my own purpose.”

Jo Na-young’s eyes turned venomous. She looked like a villainess from a drama. If you ask her to play a villain, I think she’ll do well.

“Fuck you!!”

Oh Geun-seong suddenly shouted, grabbed the desk, and threw it at Shin Do-hyeon. Shin Do-hyeon was embarrassed and reflexively pulled the trigger. But his bullet did not fire. Oh, Geun-seong’s eyes sparkle. And then he turned his body towards me.

Because the closest one is me? Rather than that, it’s probably because I’m a murderer. Only when I, a murderer, die will Oh Geun-seong be at an advantage in many ways. The decision was made in a split second.
His head is quite spinning.

Oh Geun-seong’s roundhouse kick is aimed at my head. I dodged lightly without even using super concentration.

‘It’s more worth doing than I thought.’

Still, I have no intention of engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

‘Time of the Murderer.’

An ability that allows you to use familiar cold weapons for 3 minutes.

I expected a kitchen knife to come out. The most familiar cold weapon to me is a kitchen knife. But what appeared in my hands was beyond my expectations. It was too long to be called a kitchen knife.

At first I thought it was a Japanese sword. However, to be considered a Japanese sword, the blade was straight and not curved. Japan also does not have a unique blade pattern. The red blade is just straight out.

Grasp the handle of the knife.

A heavy and cool sensation passes from my hands to my spine.

My hand moved before I even thought.

Oh Geun-seong’s back-to-back kicks coming in succession. I cut it without dodging.

Suddenly. Oh, Geun-seong’s severed leg falls like a radish being cut.

I walked forward without stopping. Swing the sword at the same time. My body reacted earlier than I thought.

In one step, Oh Geun-seong’s arm was cut off, and in two steps, his body was cut. In the final act, Oh Geun-seong beheaded. Oh, Geun-seong’s head spins in the air and falls to the floor. And later, his body collapsed on the floor.

“…”

“…”

Everyone was silent.

In terms of time, a person was dismembered and killed in less than 3 seconds.

Even I, who had done this, was surprised.

‘Was I this strong?’

I stare blankly at the knife in my hand. A red blade that feels somewhat magical. Red blood drips from the end.

I felt like I would be fascinated. This knife feels very familiar and lovely.

‘I want to kill more.’

Look around. Everyone was shocked. Even if 4 people here attacked at the same time, I was confident that I would win.

I suppressed the urge to boil over while looking at Shin Do-hyun and Jo Na-young. You can’t kill them.

To get excited, he swung his sword in the air.

I swing my hand as randomly as I can. However, there was no blockage in the movement. If there was a person in front, he had the confidence to cut them into pieces in an instant.

After 3 minutes, the knife in my hand disappears.

“Ah.”

Feeling disappointed, I belatedly found a notification window floating in the air.

“I can no longer use the murderer’s time.”

“The conditions have been met. You can escape the room at any time.”

Eugene Myung spoke to me carefully.

“… Mr. Eugene, have you trained with a sword?”

“I’ve never done that.”

“Is that so…”

Eugene Myung looked like he didn’t believe it. To be honest, she doesn’t even trust me. But it was true.

‘I can only say this is talent.’

I was a swordsman genius. Maybe Sword Master Cheok Jun-kyung was my past life.

“We are all murderers. It would be nice to call them colleagues. I hope we can have a deep conversation with each other… It would be difficult to do it here and now. Why don’t we meet and talk in real life instead of here? We have to think about the next game as well.”

“… Not bad. “Shouldn’t we escape the room first?”

Shin Do-hyun expressed his opinion. She was still clutching her empty revolver.

“You’re right. First, you have to escape the room. Two people can enter each door… Hyunsu, Shin Dohyeon, and I, please move together with Jo Nayoung. Seong Yu-jin, you can rest here. “She’s at least having a beer.”

Naturally, they excluded me as a murderer. I nodded. I understand. You might be reluctant because you still trust me 100%. Sat down on the chair A foul smell wafts from Oh Geun-seong’s corpse. I wanted to clean it up, but there was no place to clean it up.

And about 30 minutes later. We went up to the last 3rd level room.

The room on level 3 was spacious. As it was spacious, there were a lot of things. There were books on one side, machines on one side, and a playground on one side. And on the other side was a café. Although there was no barista, the refrigerator was full of drinks.

You will need at least 30 minutes to check everything and find hints.

But we were relaxed. There are still two hours left.

“Eu Jinmyeong. You knew from the beginning that I was a murderer. He probably used his abilities. “What are your abilities?”

“I’ll tell you because these are people who will be your colleagues. I can figure out the truth. We have determined whether Mr. Eugene is a murderer. “You can only use it twice a day.”

“It’s quite an unusual ability.”

“It’s a useful ability. Mr. Eugene… Is swordsmanship an ability?”

“My abilities are.”

Can I tell you? I looked around.

If you’re going to be a colleague, you should say it. If nothing else, I want to have a trusting relationship with Shin Do-hyun and Jo Na-young.

“You can get advice once a day.”

“What if you say it’s advice?”

“It’s like this. Hey. What is the password for that door?”

“It’s 1234567890.”

“It’s called 1234567890. Check it out.”

Bae Hyun-soo approached the password door with a skeptical expression.

“12345678910?”

“It’s not 10, it’s 0.”

Tiririri. Crash.

The door opened.

Everyone looked surprised.

-Congratulations! You have escaped the room!

-You guys have changed your life again. One step closer to a successful life!

-This is a record of the fastest escape. We will provide you with a small reward based on your contribution!

-We provide you with game points based on your performance.

-Now you can see the game points menu.

-You can form teams. You must form a team to participate in team games.

-For team formation, you can think of forming a team after the team leader shakes hands with the target.

-You can go out to reality through the door.

-Sooner or later an invitation will go to you. Please wait for the next game.

「117:16 time left until exit」

「117:15 time left until exit」

「117:14 time left until exit」

It looks like you can stay here for 117 minutes.

“Don’t we have a lot to talk about among ourselves? There is also a café, so I think we can talk here. Oh, let’s start with team formation first. The team leader… “I think it would be better for Eugene to do it.”

Eugene Myung said.

“Me?”

“Because Eugene is the strongest here.”

“That’s right.”

First, I reached out to Shin Do-hyeon. To form a team, you had to shake hands. Surprisingly, Shin Do-hyun took my hand without hesitation.

‘Team formation.’

“We form a team with the target. 2/6”

「Team leader: Seong Yu-jin. Team member: Shin Do-hyeon.”

“You can form a team of up to 6 people.”

“But only a maximum of 5 people can be accepted.

“Up to 5 people? Why? “

“You can experience the same gaming experience today as you do next time.”

Indeed. If one position is vacant, you can respond as you did today. If there is a murderer among us, we can make him kill the other one. The other one is a murderer? At that time, just kill him.

I shook hands with everyone else and formed a team.

“We form a team with the target. 5/6”

「Team Leader: Seong Yu-jin. Team members: Shin Do-hyun, Jo Na-young, Eugene Myeong, Bae Hyun-soo.”

“Eu Jin-myeong. You seem to know the devil’s game well. How do you know so well? How many times have you played the devil’s game? “

“No. That’s not it. After surviving the last game, I focused on gathering information. The solution was to find people other than us who were also participating in the devil’s game. And I found it. “

“How?”

“I looked for people who achieved success in unnatural ways or in a short period of time. My ability to see the truth was of great help. Just as we found the murderer, we also found the participants in the devil’s games. He was devastated by guilt. Should I say it’s thanks to you? Gathering information was easy.”

As a team leader, I felt a sense of crisis.

I’m the team leader, but I guess this kid looks more capable. If anything goes wrong, wouldn’t it hit me in the back?

Still, he was capable, so it was a bit difficult to kill him.

‘Let’s kill it later when we no longer need it. … For a moment. Since when did I take human life so lightly? It’s all because of the devil’s game.’

Let’s take care of ourselves.

I quietly focused on Jinmyeong Eugene’s words.
