betrayal?

Not even an hour had passed since we decided to fight together.

It may be difficult to call this situation a betrayal.

“You still shouldn’t hit the kid in the back!!!”

Rush forward to avoid the ensuing attack.

After gaining some distance, I turned around and assessed the situation.

Many bows aimed at me.

And the man standing in the middle.

“Didn’t you fire three shots? I need to get two more shots.”

Hyuksu was standing there with a wry smile.

“What…?”

I blink my eyes once at the unbelievable reality.

He was definitely dead.

Three arrows to the heart. It was a fatal wound that no human could survive.

The blood flowing out, the screams, and even the stopping breath are still clear.

“Why are you looking surprised? Is it that surprising that he survived? So then it makes sense that you have that kind of power?”

“…Well, that’s true.”

The healing power gained through the second awakening.

Clearly, the healing power I had was not enough to bring me back from the dead.

To be like that and still survive.

It was surprising.

“Regenerative ability? He acted arrogantly without even knowing he was going to die, but there was still one part of me that believed in him.”

Hyuksu clicks his tongue at my words.

“Regenerative ability? Wouldn’t you rather say it’s immortal rather than using such a vulgar expression?

The immortality that Qin Shi Huang so desperately wanted. Isn’t this truly an ability worthy of a king, or rather, an emperor?”

Burn it.

It’s kind of cool when you say it like that.

“But if you just cut off the flesh, will it continue to play? Then I think feeding it to pigs would be perfect.”

“This guy!!! Where is the mouth open!!!”

His face turns red and he looks very angry.

It’s a bit too much to be a king… .

I should be good enough too, but this is so pitiful.

At that time, Winter sneakily approached me and blocked me.

“You hit the back.”

“Hey, you just need to help with the summer.”

Looking at Yeoreum’s situation from the corner of my eye, it didn’t seem to be that dangerous.

For now, we are doing well in fighting off mutant attacks.

But your physical strength may not be infinite.

“It’s no big deal, so just go.”

“…Yes?”

“It’s no big deal.”

Winter stands there dumbfounded.

“Is it okay? A.”

“…I believe it.”

In the end, after hearing one more sound, I ran to help Yeoreum.

“It’s nice to see him caring for his colleagues until the end… but you have to pay for those arrogant words, like feeding pigs, right?”

“That’s exactly right, but at what price.”

Hyuksu finally raised his hand after seeing me not giving up on a single word.

He lowers his hand and gives an order.

“Shoot!”

“From now on, every bastard that moves will be hunted!!!”

In the end, all weapons used by talented people are cold weapons.

Bow, spear, sword.

Either one cannot inflict fatal wounds on me wearing armor.

On the other hand, what about the opponent?

“If you move, you die.”

Both I and the person looking at me knew that those words were true.

The fight continues for a while.

“What..what are you doing?! Shoot, shoot?!!!”

“I said I would die.”

People’s eyes turned to the Virgin Mary at the two people’s conflicting orders.

“Brother, what should I do?”

“…….”

The Virgin Mary did not answer.

I continue to worry with my brows furrowed.

[There are quite a few talented people who came over from Seoul. 18 people.]

It seems that Seongmo was the leader of the 18 people Hyeji told me about…

“If you answer wrong, you will die first.”

“What…what are you doing!!! Kill me!!!”

Hyuksu could not stand it any longer and started shooting an arrow.

Tung-

It flew away with a clean sound, but I easily turned my body to avoid it.

The arrow that follows.

Pick- Pick-

All I did was hit the floor.

“I’m not trying to kill you guys, it’s not because I’m scared of you, it’s because I’m scared of those zombie bastards.”

“Shoot!! Shoot!!!”

The Virgin Mary looks clearly into my eyes.

The moment I saw the earnest desire for life in those eyes, I couldn’t hold back my laughter.

“Sorry.”

“You…you bastard!!!”

Seongmo, who bowed her head once to Hyuksu, pointed to Byungyeon behind me and gave an order.

“Our enemies are only mutants. All members now begin the battle against mutants.”

*

It was a reality I wanted to deny.

Even before I got shot in the heart.

I denied it again and again until I woke up and came to Hanseong once again.

‘My last days can’t be like this.’

It was a position I had come to by overcoming many mistakes.

It was the place that had to be.

To survive.

To save.

I thought that a leader, or rather a king, should do that.

The price for all those sins is betrayal… .

“Ha.”

An empty laugh that erupted after a while.

The laughter gradually turns into sobs.

The dry eyes did not spit out even a single tear, but the red-stained eyes seemed as if bright red bloody tears were flowing.

“Was it greed? ?”

Hanseong’s disdainful laughter returned after a rather self-deprecating remark.

“What is the end of a powerless king? Usurpation.”

“In the end, what is power?”

Hanseong leisurely walks with his window draped over his head.

The moment I saw that, I was able to find the answer to my question.

Overwhelming force that no one can match.

An apocalyptic moment where law, trust, and even morality become blurred.

Force was the only value.

“Then… .”

If you don’t have power, you just have to have power.

He pulled out a syringe.

The doctor clearly predicted that the change in abilities would not be a one-time thing.

then?

What if you could only gain more abilities?

That’s it.

“I am the man who will become king!”

He sticks a syringe into his thigh.

One more time soon.

Bright red zombie blood spreads through the syringe and into the veins.

From the thigh, through the veins, to the heart, and back again throughout the body.

A purple spider web spreads throughout the body following the pounding heartbeat.

“Power…. Power!!!”

He cries out with both hands stretched out to the sky.

His whole body was torn apart and regenerated repeatedly.

It grew little by little each time.

Even more powerfully.

In the form of being able to have the power he wanted.

Naturally, the appearance seemed a little different from the king Hyuksu had hoped for.

*

“Woook…! Wow! ”

The thing that was Hyuksu continued to swell while screaming inexplicably.

So… literally, keep going.

Isn’t it time to stop at this point?

Slowly?

“Uh oh…?”

I had already repeated ‘seulseul’ several times in my head, but the red blood clots continued to grow.

Its size is already more than 100 bones.

Hyuksu had already swelled to a size that easily surpassed a house, and as it grew, its speed gradually increased.

“This… is strange?”

When I realized what was strange, I immediately ran over and cut out the blood with the tip of the spear.

A lump of blood that was easily cut off with a few strokes.

However, the area quickly filled with other blood clots, and the wound disappeared everywhere.

Cut, cut and cut again.

Play, play and play again.

Although Hyuksu was an immortal small fry, this red lump of blood was a wave that could not be defeated.

A wave that is sure to crush me someday.

“Fuck….”

I step back to avoid the swelling blood clot.

The blood clot, swelling beyond the size of the house, caught everyone’s attention.

The twenty talented people who ran to fight the mutant.

Summer, winter, and even white flowers.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the enormity with their mouths wide open.

I turned my head to the loud scream.

“…What is this!!!”

“Master…?”

“How did this happen!!!”

Everyone looked mesmerized by the sight with their mouths wide open.

Even the mutants who were fighting them stood still and watched.

“I don’t know, fuck!!! Hyuksu That bastard stabbed me with a syringe and this happened.”

A loud sound resounds at the right time.

“Wooo!!!”

It was a loud sound as big as the slime.

The slime let out a loud roar as if waking up from sleep and gradually stretched its body into the sky.

It’s as if he wants to swallow even the sun.

He stretches his body to the extent of his greed.

When my stretched body blocked out all the sunlight above my head.

“Oooooh!”

“Go…attack!!”

It covers me standing in the shadows.

“Jump!!!”

With my words, the death race began.

Death will come the moment you fall behind.

I ran with all my strength and barely escaped the shadows. Slime gore covers all shadowed areas.

thud-

A loud impact sound befitting the enormous size of the body.

The weight of the sound revealed one clear fact.

If you get crushed, you die.

“Ugh….!!!”

The heartbreaking screams of the person who could not escape disappeared with a thud.

It was not difficult to imagine the scene as I ran forward.

“How the fuck can I kill that thing!!!”

kill?

Even after spitting it out, the words were puzzling.

He doesn’t die, so kill him?

how?

He catches Baekhwa, who was running ahead, and puts him on his back.

Up to this point is OK.

Even with light bleaching, you can run with the strap on for a while… .

“Leave it behind!”

I couldn’t leave Winter alone, who had prepared to die on her own terms.

sacrifice?

A sacrifice that has no benefit or benefit is nothing more than dog death.

I couldn’t just watch that.

“Baekhwa, move to Gyeoreum and ride.”

“…What about you, master?”

“I’m going to run away so hurry!!!”

After handing the white flower over to Gyeoreum, he grabbed both hands and threw it towards the sky.

Rotate a few turns as if doing a giant swing, add centrifugal force, and then throw it toward the sky.

The skin is strong, so it won’t rub against the floor.

After seeing it safely land on the grass, I turned my head towards the slime.

“Master…? what are you doing…? Run!! Run away!!!”

“It’s okay.”

Are you okay? I’m not sure.

Normally, men are the ones who show off in situations like this.

I ran towards the slime.

I hit the ground roughly and move forward, avoiding the flesh falling from above and entering its body.

“See you later.”
