Chinese Zodiac Sign

A quiet hospital room where only short beeps can be heard. Is it because of the man lying down? The three women by the hospital bed remain silent for a long time and only look at the man.

“The doctor said it was a coma.”

A voice that cuts through the silence. Hyeri Lee speaks calmly with an expressionless face. The appearance contrasts with Inspector Seo Min-jeong, who has a sad expression, and Yu-ri Lee, who is distorted like a demon.

“The brain hemorrhage has been treated as an emergency, but we don’t know when it will explode again, and the damage to the spinal cord is so severe that even if he comes to his senses, he won’t be able to use his lower body.”

A tear rolled down her cheek as if her soul had disappeared.

“The culprit… Where is the culprit now?!”

Lee Yu-ri shouted at Inspector Seo Min-jeong.

“The suspect in this case was hospitalized in another local hospital. Because I was injured during the suppression process…”

Inspector Seo Min-jeong took a moment to catch her breath and continued speaking in a stern voice.

“However, we will take responsibility for the suspect and make efforts to ensure that appropriate punishment is given. Definitely.”

Lee Hye-ri stretched out her hand to stop Lee Yu-ri, who was about to say something more. She spoke without turning her head, looking down at Minho.

“I will believe it because it is the person who saved Minho when he was fighting that guy.”

“……Thank you.”

Lieutenant Seo Min-jeong bowed her head and left the hospital room. Lee Yu-ri grabbed Lee Hye-ri’s shoulder, who had stopped her.

“Sister! Let’s hire a lawyer and sue that crazy bastard! Don’t let that guy breathe the outside air again…”

“Of course you should do that. No matter how much money it costs.”

Yuri Lee could feel it instinctively. The burning anger in Lee Hye-ri’s eyes as she looks back at herself. That she is holding back just to burst that fire at the right time.

“Did you say villain…”

Hye-ri Lee quietly muttered the words that appeared in the news that reported the incident.

A soft green light stayed in her clenched fist for a moment and then disappeared.

[Amenity ‘safe injection’ has been applied.]

[Would you like to permanently end the journey of ‘Hero Live’? When it permanently ends, you will no longer be able to travel to that world again and you will receive the final reward.]

[YES] [NO]

[You selected NO.]

[The avatar of the world of ‘Male Reversal Hero Live’ begins recovery procedures.]

[As a penalty for safe injection, the ‘Travel Destination’ menu will be sealed for 30 days, and can be unlocked by paying 1,000 mileage.]

[Settlement of travel compensation.]

[Basic reward: 200 mileage]

[Achievements achieved: first souvenir acquisition, souvenir acquisition, first safe injection experience, rapid change in character’s fate x3]

[Medium compensation: 6200 mileage]

[Intermediate evaluation: It is said that human emotions are purest and shine the brightest when meeting someone and when parting ways. I look forward to seeing whether the spark left by the tester will become a beacon that warms the world or a disaster that will engulf everything.]

As soon as the trip ended, I felt around my body to see if there was anything wrong. The dizzying feeling of losing strength is gone, and I am in the best condition I was in before I left for the trip.

“Phew… I’m glad.”

I instinctively jumped forward to save Lee Hye-ri, but I was worried about what might happen if something went wrong.

I also gained something. Unlike Lee Yu-ri, Lee Hye-ri, whose only emotional interaction with me was sympathy, was sure to become very conscious of me through this incident.

Perhaps the next time we meet again, we will become closer much faster.

On this trip, the amenities played their role well. By changing the appearance, it was easy to gain the favor of the characters, and Hye-ri Lee was also able to be saved through safe ejection.

It looks like the trip will be sealed for 30 days as a penalty, but if you don’t want to wait, you can use some of the mileage you’ve earned this time.

First, I entered the souvenir menu so that I could use the [Extrasensory Perception – High-Speed Thinking] I acquired this time in real life.

[Would you like to permanently register ‘Extrasensory Perception – High Speed Thinking’ to your menu? 1000 mileage is consumed.]

[YES] [NO]

Of course I chose [YES].

Unlike when I gained superpowers in the Namhira universe, I didn’t have a headache or fever, but I instinctively knew that I had gained superpowers.

“And abilities.”

It’s time to distribute abilities, which is the most urgent matter.

I thought Namhira’s worldview was a world of low difficulty because it was described in a fairly light tone in the novel.

Wrong.

Show business? It doesn’t matter if you’re confident that you’ll never encounter heroes and villains in real life and only watch them on TV. However, as this accident shows, if you do not have the power, it is not you who decides, but someone else.

Because I had no strength, I squeaked and died like a stoned frog.

Now that I have this ability, I have no intention of handing over my options to those around me in the future.

It will actively become stronger.

I opened the status window.

[Name: Lee Min-ho]

[Abilities]

-Strength: 2

-Dexterity: 1

-Stamina: 1

-Intellect: 1

[style]

[World Tester]

[Would you like to invest 1 point in strength? -200 mileage]

Each time the ability level is increased by 1 point, the required cost increases by 100 mileage.

‘It would have been nice if the cost was fixed, but compared to increasing it multiple times, it’s a fairy tale. Let’s think positively.’

I spent a total of 3900 mileage to raise all abilities to 5.

“Oooo……”

Unlike superpowers, this change was very drastic. I felt extreme pain, perhaps because I had raised too many abilities at once.

The muscles in my whole body were twisted, my body temperature rose, and my head felt dizzy, so I couldn’t even scream and rolled on the floor.

Fortunately, the pain didn’t last long.

“Ceeeepal… I guess you’ll never increase your abilities more than twice at once again.”

I came to my senses, stood up, and checked my body. I feel an explosive power different from before.

[Name: Lee Min-ho]

[Abilities]

-Strength: 5

-Dexterity: 5

-Stamina: 5

-Intellect: 5

[style]

[World Tester]

At this level, it is not at a level that surpasses humans, but it is similar to or better than a trained athlete or bodybuilder.

When I lifted my shirt and looked at my stomach, I was greeted by clear abs. This is my first time meeting him since I was discharged from the military.

I took off my clothes for a moment and posed in front of the mirror, admiring my body. I also took a few pictures.

“Huh? There are no tattoos in the photo?”

The bracelet-shaped tattoo on his wrist was not visible in the photo. It looks so clean, as if nothing like that has ever existed.

I didn’t think much of it, but I guess it’s a tattoo that’s invisible to other people.

“Then the remaining mileage is……”

There are 1300 mileage left.

“I guess I’ll have to put this on hold for now.”

After 30 days, I plan to go to another world, not Namhira world. I will choose the type of work that will give me strength quickly.

Even now, I am confident that I can deal with sloppy villains by using my high-speed thinking and physical abilities. It would be possible to counterattack the stone monster.

But that is only within the scope of humans who have trained themselves to the limit. You need to become a little stronger.

After choosing a ‘travel destination’, you can use 1,300 mileage points to further increase your abilities or buy items at the store.

“The worries end here!”

Maybe it’s because I’ve been to another world for a while, but I feel itchy. I took out my smartphone, which I hadn’t touched in a few days, and accessed the Internet.

Contrary to what I expected, time in this world did not pass at all, so there was nothing to see.

Suddenly a funny thought occurred to me.

I went to a large domestic community site and posted a post.

[Title: Evaluate your body before going to sleep]

[Content: Photo.jpg]

-quite

-Ha, I love it… haha

-yes

-How many squats?

-The post below says the size of the penis has decreased haha.

-If you have a body like this, I’ll give you my salary.

-What is Royder’s body rating?

ㄴThis asshole is in every post haha.

The response is good, perhaps because it is a community related to health. If I were in my old body, I would have just been turned around.

I had been giggling as I watched the comments coming in quickly for a while, but when the response died down, I deleted the post and looked through the popular posts.

Then I found this article.

[Title: Crocoach channel announcement this time?]

[Content: I heard that you are gathering together ordinary people who are good at sports and YouTubers to survive?]

– ㅇㅇ I heard Big Farm is leaving.

-That was a live broadcast haha. I was out of my mind.

Is this live? If I get into an accident, I’ll be in trouble.

-Ad, you idiot.

-Chaney, I wish I could go out ㅠㅠ

-That means that ordinary people are all people who are not just YouTubers. Athletes are also considered ordinary people.

What? YouTubers are going to be crazy haha

It was a post that received a lot of likes, perhaps because it was a topic receiving quite a lot of attention.

I immediately looked for related information. It was easy to get information about whether they were trying to advertise or if people were really interested.

The name of the program is Top Beast Survival.

It is a survival program in which 20 ordinary people and YouTubers are selected to compete against each other’s physical skills.

There is only one winner.

Coincidentally, the application deadline was tomorrow and filming was next week.

When I looked at it extremely subjectively, I decided that it would be very fun to go here.

Sigh-

“I guess I should show my Earthling friends a taste of my superpowers, right?”
