    “Daebu Park… … . This is my first time seeing it in person like this.”

    Min Si-hyeon walked around me and looked me up and down, like an executive evaluating a new employee.

    I pretended to be stiff and stayed still.

    “A man like this… You mean there were hundreds of people in that shopping mall?”

    “That’s how it was.”

    “Probably because of this man’s abilities.”

    Men look at me.

    I guess I’m thinking about how to use my abilities.

    “Before that.”

    The purple-haired woman called the leader stopped.

    Staring at me intently

    I deliberately tried to avoid eye contact.

    “It’s really difficult to control. Daebu Park.”

    “… ? What does that mean?”

    “I’m actually giving this order right now. Jump off that bridge.”

    ah.

    The leader laughed as if it was absurd.

    “But when I see him not moving… . It means that he has tremendous mental power to resist my commands. However, I came here on purpose to control Daebu Park, and even though I am controlling only Daebu Park… . It doesn’t work.”

    Umm.

    I felt that this was the limit of my acting.

    Anyway, I expected that I would get caught since I was ‘pretending’ to control it. I also had no intention of pretending to be manipulated forever.

    Now that I have met the leader in person, I have achieved my goal.

    Anyway, according to what the leader said, this control ability seems to be affected by the distance from the control target, the number of control targets, and mental strength.

    I really appreciate you leaving such a useful hint.

    Now all that’s left is to take advantage of the opportunity and steal that ability.

    It would be difficult if I made a mistake and got a dart stuck in my head, so I carefully looked for opportunities.

    “First, let’s take him to our hideout. This is a very open place.”

    Gooo──.

    As soon as the leader finished speaking, a monster sound was heard from the Han River.

    The men made eye contact and grabbed my arm.

    Hideout? Now that I think about it, I heard that their headquarters is Yongsan.

    It wouldn’t be a bad idea to check there. Anyway, the only way to get back is by taking sub-space.

    It was then.

    “Wait!!”

    A voice was heard from far away.

    Looking closely, I saw that there were about 30 people running.

    “Yes… … ?”

    “Those people. I think I saw it before… ?”

    People running from the shopping mall.

    I caught my eye on one of them.

    ‘… … ‘Cheon Sangsu?’

    “Please take us with you!”

    The people who ran all the way here quickly knelt down in front of the leader.

    Everyone called out to the leader first.

    “We know all of Daebu Park’s weaknesses!”

    “I know how to handle this bastard!”

    … … These bastards are traitors?

    ***

    After arriving at the hideout, I was tied to a chair.

    At best, I just wrapped my body in duct tape. I could tear through it as much as I wanted.

    But now I stayed quiet to see how they behaved.

    The manager was lining up the new members at the shopping mall.

    “So you’re saying you’re going to abandon Daebu Park and submit to me?”

    “Yes… !”

    “Yes. That’s right!”

    “Hmm.”

    The leader smiled slightly, as if he didn’t feel bad that others were willing to obey him. Because it’s splitting.

    I pretended to remain silent and glanced at the faces of the traitors.

    They were all guys who rushed at me and said they would be loyal to me while overdoing it.

    I heard there are a lot of guys who are a bit harsh.

    An eternal law. A person who is loyal with his mouth is never loyal.

    Loyalty is something you do through actions.

    But I looked closely at one of them.

    Sangsu Cheon.

    Ban Cho-yeon’s husband.

    Why did this man come here?

    If it’s revenge for having your wife raped, isn’t that too much of a reason?

    It’s ‘natural’ for you to offer your wife to me.

    “Well, okay. But what is Daebu Park’s weakness that you mentioned?”

    “That guy is crazy about women.”

    … … How did you know?

    “It is a good weakness under normal conditions, but now that I am controlling Daebu Park, it is a meaningless weakness.”

    The leader answered simply.

    Even if it were me, I would do that. The guy who brought that information is an asshole.

    The leader sighed deeply.

    “I don’t need any information about Daebu Park. It’s like it’s over for this person anyway. Rather, aren’t the conditions for properly utilizing this ability more important?”

    “Ma, that’s right.”

    “Among these, is there anyone who brought at least one item from the shopping mall?”

    “… … … .”

    Everyone looked at each other in silence.

    what. these guys.

    Are you saying you’re betraying me by coming here with nothing but your body?

    The leader also seemed a bit unexpected and asked in a slightly exasperated voice.

    “Is there anyone?”

    “Well, that’s… … .”

    “Yes. It seems so.”

    “After… .”

    The leader let out a deep sigh.

    This seems unexpected, right?

    Well, maybe there wasn’t proper communication.

    From the looks of it, the leader seemed to have thought that he would have brought food or other supplies on his own.

    On the other hand, the people here didn’t seem to think to bring something like that because they were running away from the chaos or rushing to get here quickly.

    “If I keep doing this, I’m leaving.”

    “… … ?”

    “You can’t use Daebu Park’s abilities properly.”

    What the manager said was right.

    My ability is ultimately duplicated.

    It is an ability that can only be effective if you have the original.

    When I looked at this hideout right away, it didn’t look like there was anything to eat. The warehouse where things were piled up also looked small.

    In the beginning, I didn’t go around looking for things for no reason. If I don’t have something to replicate, I’m as good as incompetent.

    If you were planning on manipulating me and using me, you should have taken care of the necessary items in the first place.

    “What kind of food do we have left now?”

    “That… … . Rice, mushrooms and what else?”

    “Something leftover, like salted seafood… … Yes.”

    “… … .”

    wow. Did they survive until now by eating that kind of food?

    This is kind of awesome.

    The leader sighed again.

    “Then, if you duplicate it, you will only end up with more rice, salted seafood, and mushrooms.”

    “… … I guess so?”

    “You won’t be able to live like these people enjoyed in shopping malls.”

    “… … .”

    “It’s not worth the effort to control Daebu Park.”

    The leader and the others looked helpless.

    Of course, the traitors probably came here because they thought it would be better than the shopping mall, but looking at this place, no matter how much you look at it, there is no sign of improvement compared to the shopping mall.

    I can’t do “.”

    The leader clapped once as if he had remembered something.

    “I will bring you the food and items you need from the shopping mall.”

    “… … Isn’t that what you want to occupy there?”

    “Yes. The reason we chose this place was because we thought about the content of the novel after the raid, right? Taking that into consideration, staying in the shopping mall is not a very good choice.”

    “But why bother leaving that good place… … .”

    “There are still a lot of people there, right? Not everyone will be friendly to us.”

    There were still many of my females and believers left in the mall.

    “Yeah, that’s right.”

    “There are idiots who only believe in Park Daebu even if they break their heads just because they call him Daekkaebu.”

    “That… … There are some women too.”

    Cheon Sang-soo was shocked at the word “women.”

    “That’s right. Right now, I feel like I can’t control just one person, but it’s difficult for me to control all the hundreds of people there. So, let’s just get the stuff out. You don’t need much. Just one. If we take just one thing away, we can make a fresh start here.”

    “Oh… … .”

    “Ma, that’s right.”

    The men nodded at the leader’s words.

    “Then, from now on, please go to the shopping mall again and get the items.”

    “What about you, leader?”

    “Shouldn’t I be here with Daebu Park? What if you take Daebu Park there and the people there chase you? Didn’t you say earlier that there were people with guns chasing you?”

    “Ma, that’s right.”

    It seemed like it was probably a story about Siyu and other people who tried to rescue me.

    “So, I will stay here with the minimum number of people. From now on, please go back to Yeongdeungpo and bring all the necessary items, one by one. That’s your job. If we succeed in this, we will accept you as our colleague.”

    “Oh, I understand!”

    “I will work hard! Leader!”

    As expected from Agari loyalists, they speak softly.

    All the men gathered together and moved back to Yeongdeungpo. The number is approximately 40 people.

    There were only a few people left in this abandoned building in Yongsan, including the manager and me.

    “Hmm… … .”

    The leader approached me. He was busy looking me up and down.

    “How can I manipulate my abilities to use them? This.”

    Sometimes he touched me, and sometimes I focused on whether something was sending orders to my head.

    I also secretly looked up and down the leader.

    Looking at it like this, it was a pretty nice female.

    Hmm.

    There’s no one around. Slowly, I got tired of acting like I was being manipulated.

    Now it was time to move.

    “It would be great if you could listen to me easily── Ugh!?”

    He jumped up from his chair and grabbed the leader’s neck.
