The ground under my feet shook uneasily, but I didn’t care and kicked the ground. As soon as he could get his feet off the ground, the Gyeongsin Technique he had learned while rolling under Jo In until he died began to unfold naturally.

I closed my eyes once and opened them, kicking the wall that was right in front of my nose and using the recoil to throw my body in the opposite direction.

Using the wall as a stepping stone, he jumped up to the height of the second floor railing, then held on to the iron railing with his hand and stood on the second floor.

The railing that had suddenly taken on my weight was making a loud noise, but I paid no attention and ran towards the ladder leading to the rooftop.

Actions that literally spring from instinct,

Thanks to that, the moment I reached the rooftop in just about a minute… I had to see it.

“Fuck… What is that.”

The sight of a monster destroying a school building like a sand castle,

How should I express that…?

It was like watching a gorilla that had taken steroids incorrectly.

The difference is that, unlike the gorilla, which has fluffy fur, that guy over there has a gray-white body without a single hair, and that it is almost the size of a container box.

Meanwhile, what particularly caught my attention was something that looked like a yellow rock stuck in the back of the guy’s neck.

‘No way is that…’

Is this the ‘problem’ that the system says it is?

It must have been a moment when I was looking in that direction with my eyes narrowed because I had a premonition that this might be the case.

A sharp sound, like someone falling down due to lack of strength in their legs, was heard from behind. When I turned my head and looked back, what caught my eye was a group of women with pale faces.

Among them, Karen’s reaction was the most impressive.

The sight of him flopping down on the rooftop floor and his lips fluttering was clearly that of someone who doesn’t want to acknowledge this reality.

Well, I guess so.

Even though it was a zombie, it was close to a human, but no matter how you looked at it, the ‘thing’ running rampant over there was a monster itself.

The concrete wall was crushed like tofu every time the log-like arm, which had a bulging limb that I couldn’t tell if it was blood or something else, swung.

Seeing that, I stuck out my tongue without realizing it.

That’s because as soon as the whitish dust that rose up for an instant settled down, the guy’s arm, which was exposed, seemed perfectly fine despite having collided head-on with a concrete wall.

Even after that, my arm is still fine.

What happened to my body?

“Is that… the special mutant creature mentioned in the leaflet…”

“···Maybe so.”

“If you hit me with an arm like that…”

Did he not really want to say anything after that?

Sakura’s voice cut off in an extremely ambiguous place along with the sound of swallowing.

However, it wasn’t that difficult to guess what she was originally trying to say. Honestly, I had no choice but to do that because what would come next was obvious.

I’m sure he was trying to say that the auditorium door or whatever wasn’t going to hold up.

No matter how thick the auditorium door is, it is only as good as a wall made of concrete and rebar.

It is a fist that crushes reinforced concrete walls like tofu. If something like that starts swinging in earnest… whether it’s a door or a wall, it won’t be able to hold on for long and will be shattered.

Those things piled up in front of the door as a barricade?

Even walls can’t hold up, so will those things be able to hold up?

So what if he draws attention to the school building and turns it this way, towards the auditorium?

The auditorium, our only sanctuary, will be completely destroyed, like a Nexus with all 3 processors gone.

Did everyone even picture such a scene in their head? It was strangely annoying to see that they all had swarthy expressions.

Actually, that was it.

I took a step forward as if I was walking even if it was flat.

*****

At first… I thought I had tripped out of shock.

“Yu, Yoon Soo-hyun!”

That was why I urgently stretched out my hand, calling his name when I saw the man’s face disappearing in a huff.

Of course… I know.

That man, Yoon Soo-hyun, may be as dangerous as he appears, or even more dangerous than he appears.

Isn’t the proof of this that when the two of us were alone in the cafeteria, we accepted the offer made despite our embarrassment and shame without even thinking about it at all?

Such a man’s actions could never have occurred unless he had always looked at other people as lower than himself, and so Yoon Soo-hyun was clearly a dangerous person… but despite this, he could not give up on his existence.

Because I couldn’t guarantee Eri’s safety on my own.

So… even though I thought it might already be too late, I didn’t give up and stretched out my hand…

It must have been the moment when I leaned forward, risking the risk of falling together.

An unbelievable sight unfolded before my eyes.

The man’s body, which was leaning forward, suddenly stopped and the man started running down the wall as if it were flat. When I reflexively opened my eyes, the man who had run half way down the stairs jumped off the wall and landed on the floor.

Even cats, which are famous for their flying ability, make a sound when they land, but the man did not.

The way I showed yesterday and the way I showed just now are the same. How is something like that possible? Could he be a hero who has been hiding his true identity?

The man, who was making a dumbfounded expression at the thought that flashed into his mind for a moment, must have been completely shocked, sat down and stood up repeatedly, pretending to relax, pulled out a sword from the air.

It was right after that that the man took a long stride towards the monster.

A movement as if I had gone for a quick walk to clear my busy mind,

Nevertheless, it seemed faster than most people running with all their might. That’s why I couldn’t take my eyes off the back of the man, who had already moved away when I came to my senses.

And finally… the monster noticed the man’s approach.

How many bad memories did you have of school when you were a human?

The monster, which was swinging its arms like crazy as if it was going to destroy the school building, suddenly stopped. Then, she slowly turned around and started staring at the figure of the man approaching her.

Did he feel momentarily confused by the sight of a creature that seemed to be less than half his size, narrowing the distance with fearless strides?

The monster, which was staring at the man so calmly that it was hard to believe that it was the same creature that had been rampaging like that just moments ago, suddenly raised one of its arms.

It’s as if he’s saying he’ll just crush it and do whatever he wants.

The moment when those on the rooftop of the auditorium reflexively closed their eyes as they foresaw what the future would bring to the man.

Squeak!

A cutting sound was heard.

If you think about it with common sense, it’s a ‘cutting sound’ that you can never hear.

*****

To be honest… I thought it was half and half until I jumped out of the auditorium. I wasn’t talking about victory or defeat, but whether my sword would be able to cut that lump’s body.

So, if the situation was not favorable, I was thinking of giving up on fighting head-on and trying to attack key points.

The closer I got, the more I felt it. The ‘instability’ flowing along its body.

When seen from a distance, it certainly looked as hard as a marble stone.

‘If this is enough…’

Do you think you can cut it in the nick of time?

Could it be that his physical condition is still unstable because he has only recently evolved from the common zombie A to his current form?

Well, just by looking at it, it looks like several zombies have been merged into one by some kind of force. So, if the condition remains stable, it may be rather strange.

And… didn’t Join, who is not in this world but who taught me Uicheonmu, always say it as a habit?

The most important thing for a prosecutor is the attitude of believing that one can cut.

So, instead of avoiding the guy’s arm that was slashing at me, I faced him and swung my sword… I thought the sword was swung very cleanly and did not betray my trust.

Wow!

“Oh, sir…! It’s been less than two hours since I showered!”

Was it so disappointing that one of his arms was blown off?

The thing was twisting its body this way and that, swinging its only remaining arm wildly. Every time that happened, dark red blood spurted out from the cut end.

They sprayed blood almost like a sprinkler… Even though I won slightly, I couldn’t feel good about being covered in blood.

That’s why I ignored the task of identifying his weaknesses for when I had to deal with him again later, and quietly went behind him and blew his head off…

That must have been the moment when I forcibly stopped that damn thing.

“Lord, are you dead…?! That monster?”

An unfamiliar voice came from the wall that had collapsed due to the man’s hand.

“Seo, are you really here to save me?”

The voice of a ‘man’ that makes you feel bad just by hearing it.

‘I was wondering why you were acting like you had anger management disorder…’

Was it because of those bastards?
