— Yikes!

The sound of a white bone crying from afar.

The troops who were resting on the floor immediately realized the sense of crisis and stood up.

“…white bones. I guess I finally touched it… .”

Although they did their best not to attract the White Bones of level 3 risk, Winter made a quick decision due to the unavoidable reality.

“All troops, on board!!!”

“Everyone on board!”

At the thought of leaving behind the iron plate that had just been tested, my heart ached as if I were abandoning my child, but it could not have resulted in casualties.

“… Give up on the iron plate!”

“Okay…!”

Hanseong suddenly stood in front of Gyeolryeo, who was shouting at the top of his voice.

“Hey, it would be a waste to throw something away.”

“Still, there are more casualties… .”

It bothered me to complain about Hanseong’s opinion, but there was no reason to force a fight that would result in casualties.

All you have to do is quickly return to your accommodations, get some rest, and deal with it.

He spat out a rebuttal, convinced that it was a reasonable decision, but Hanseong did not listen to his words until the end and rushed forward with only a barrel full of spears wrapped around his bare body.

Tuk-! Tuk-!

Swish~!

The shape of a bulging fist created by a morel beating.

Hanseong held on to the irregularities of the iron plate as if he were rock climbing and jumped up, instantly falling to the other side of the wall.

“Just wait and see! Because it will end soon.”

Winter’s voice echoes vaguely in a bright voice that sounds like someone went for a walk.

“Yes…?”

No matter how strong Hanseong is, the opponent is a great army.

Hanseong is one.

Let alone 1:100, it might be well over hundreds.

‘Should I open it now and move on?’

If Hanseong steps forward, the probability of soldiers dying will also drop drastically.

But even that low probability cannot be ignored…

While I was wrapping my head around all sorts of worries, Jisoo was running towards Byeongcheol, who had already wrapped the rope around his leg, and was yelling.

“What are you doing? Upload it quickly!!!”

“Ha, but… First of all, Winter is not the one with the operational authority…”

“Quick!!!”

Byeong-cheol’s thick arms tremble under the sharp gaze that threatens to kill him if he doesn’t open it right away.

When you can’t do anything and are just watching what winter will do!

A shout from Hanseong announced the start of the battle from the other side of the iron plate.

“Let’s have some fun, you bastards!!!”

Whoa whoa!!!!!!

A harsh burst that makes you certain that something has died all at once.

A loud shout full of confidence.

It was the moment when my reason for wanting to raise the iron plate changed.

*

“Ssotcha.”

I stepped over the iron plate and lightly shook my hands.

A battle after a long time.

No, massacre?

The sensations of that moment of transformation still remain vivid in my memory, and perhaps thanks to that, I have become adept at coordinating various sensations.

I would say that the ability of Hundred Flowers has blossomed.

Jisoo’s ability to control physiological activities such as heartbeat was also included.

Power and feeling.

And the connection between the two abilities.

Although it was only an absurdly faint fragment compared to the moment when he became a mutant, his senses clearly became a new starting point for his growth.

– Kwiik!

-Grrr!!!

The moment I focus my senses on the sound, my senses move to the place I want, just like a camera moving.

The sound of that place.

vibration.

temperature.

Counting the number of enemies amidst the overflow of information is as obvious as it seems.

“How much is there?”

One morel.

Two Rokurokubi.

Three moles.

One white bone leading them.

A total of seven…

Since the dominance of White Bones varies depending on their size, it could be said that White Bones could have created the optimal army by gathering only the variants.

For me, it’s actually a thank you, right?

There are fewer annoying things to do.

As I was twirling the arm holding the spear and relaxing my shoulders, I heard loud footsteps coming from the other side.

thud. thud. thud. thud.

The sound of footsteps a little louder than before.

It looks like this morel is a bit big… ?

Approximately, 3.5M?

I was intrigued by the size that I had never seen before.

“How strong will you be?”

There was a huge head visible from afar, and on its forearms, two Rokurokubi were attached to its left and right arms, like combined robots.

“Oh~ It’s been a while! That form.”

It is clearly a variant form encountered when occupying the army, but the size of the morels is much larger than then and the number of Rokurokubi has increased.

I remember sharing a feeling… .

Let’s check it out.

“Tskcha~!”

Swish profit!!!

As I twist my body and throw lightly, the spear shoots out like a bullet.

The spear flies up and down like an arrow, and its speed exceeds the speed of sound, so the sound follows the spear.

The spear flew straight to the head and pierced the arm, not the head.

-Ugh!!!

The screams that come out as if in pain are quite enjoyable.

“Does it hurt~? I’m sick too!”

-Kkii profit!!!

Perhaps I was angry at myself for being happy, but I felt harsh irritation at the cries of White Bone.

At that command, Gombo pulled out the spear I shot with Rokurokubi’s head and started spinning it around as if throwing a sling.

Phew~!

Phew~!

Phew~!

It spins several times, applying centrifugal force, and then throws it straight at me.

The spear that left my mouth hit directly where I was.

Wow!!!

It pierced the hard concrete floor, and fragments of the floor flew everywhere like grenades.

“Oh~ I’m playing a bit?”

-Grrr!

As I was amazed at the faster-than-expected attack, the overheated Gombo started grabbing and throwing everything it could find around it.

Cars, collapsed building exterior walls, electric poles.

Run forward to avoid various thrown objects.

-Good!!!

-Kkiik!!!!

Unlike Gombo, who just stood in place without thinking and continued his attack, Baekgol realized the seriousness of the situation and shouted urgently, and only then did his attack pattern change.

Sigh-!

Rokurokubi’s head is aiming for the leg.

As I jumped to avoid it, a second head was aimed at me while I was in the air.

“Yayaya!!!”

I tried to catch it in a cool way, but it would be difficult if it came out like this, right?

I approached him with a barrage of attacks and tried to look straight into his eyes like Jisoo.

-Squeak…!

As if subduing a snake with its mouth wide open, lift its chin with your knee and force it to close its mouth.

It pierced through the head and fell to the floor.

thud-!!!

Thread the top of another head on the floor together to make a skewer.

Two Rokurokubi with their heads pierced by crude spears.

It looked like an eel about to be peeled.

-Good!!!

-Kkii profit!!!

Perhaps because he realized that no matter how much he stretched, he could not be my opponent, the white bone that had been whimpering like a puppy turned around and started rolling.

“Hey!!! You bastard!!! Where are you going?!”

Gombo is struggling and not even able to cut off the Rokurokubi that has already become his own body, and the white skeleton is running away behind him.

When I grab its neck and yank it hard, the pup falls down on its seat.

White bones come into view.

Javelin.

“Stop? Otherwise you will die?”

Whoops-!!!

When a spear is thrust in front of his eyes, he stops stiffly.

-Kkeee…!

“You understand what I’m saying, right? Let’s shut up?”

-urg…!

A white bone that keeps its mouth shut and a morel that runs without notice.

Thump thump thump

It rushes at me with loud steps, but it easily dodges my fist and digs into my arms to punch me in the stomach.

Pugh-!!!

A morel flew backwards with a loud sound of its organs exploding.

Because his hands are fixed, he falls to the floor in a tense state.

“Let’s pay attention, shall we? Huh?”

Firmly, as if fixing a specimen on top of it. Deep.

I approached it, fixing it on the floor.

At the scene of brutal slaughter unfolding before its eyes, the white skeleton began to spin in place with a faint squeak.

“Hey hey hey, stop.”

-Squeak!

“Turn around!”

-Squeak!

Is this what it means to say there is no business in the face of violence?

Or… is it because the effects of becoming a mutant remain?

Did you say that purple turtles are albino?

…It’s pretty good.

“Do you want to play White?”

-Squeak!!!

I’m not sure if he completely understands my intentions, but I feel like I’ve acquired a cute pet.

It’s a bit difficult to keep them close and raise them… .

Ah, there is something to write about.

“You, go north.”

-Kkkk?

They told me to become a pet, but it seems like they didn’t understand why I was suddenly told to go north again.

“Go, eat a lot of people and work hard to increase your power. Make a huge mess. Do you understand?”

-Kkiik!!!!

I guess killing people has a lot of things to worry about, right?

Because it is an evil act.

The image you have built up may be ruined.

It became difficult to do what I wanted.

North Korea is a bit… well, it seems like it would get on people’s nerves if they were alive, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take action in advance.

If you’re alive, we’ll save you, and if you’re dead, it’s empty land.

“Work hard~~~”

He waved his hand towards the white bone that was quickly running away.

*

I brushed aside Winter’s question about why I released Baekgol and started looking for peaches in earnest.

“If you find it, there’s a reward~!”

“Yes!!!”

It may feel like finding a shell casing among grains of sand, but there is a reward anyway.

Hearing the word reward, the soldiers went around picking up numerous peach trees.

Most of the peaches were half ruined because they had been eaten by bugs, but if you only eat the healthy parts, they are still edible.

“Keu~”

One in each hand.

There was no trace of fatigue on the faces of the soldiers, who were intoxicated by the sweetness of fruit they had tasted for the first time in a long time.

The same goes for winter and index.

Winter’s eyes were shining as she searched for a ripe peach, perhaps to give it to her as a girlfriend.

“Are you going to give me a girlfriend too? What… was his name?”

“Hayoon?”

“Ah, that’s right, Hayun.”

Geumsul seems to be doing well these days, but should we slowly make him more capable, at least for Gyeol-gyeol’s sake?

But again, it goes against fairness… .

“Ah, it’s a shame….”

Winter is a time when you feel regretful as you hold a peach that has been lightly eaten by bugs.

He’s not cheating, he’s steady, and he’s capable.

Even handsome!

I wish my brother-in-law would date a nicer woman other than that bitch named Hayun.

For example, an index?

Seeing Jisoo wandering around looking for peaches with bright eyes, it seemed clear that she had someone to give as a gift.

Is it winter?

“Jisoo What about you? Is there anyone you can give it to?”

“…No. There is no such person.”

As a moment of vagueness passed by, it was clear that I had found a man I liked.

Does that guy have a partner?

Or because you care about your past?

I could guess the reason, so I approached him lightly and continued talking.

“How long are you going to keep teasing men? You know you’re so popular, right?”

“Am I…?”

Her slender body and looks that make it hard to believe she’s a soldier are definitely enough to melt a man’s heart. It was natural.

even!!!

Because that ability is sexy!

No, the ability is erogenous…!

They say they can control it now, but it still sucks…?

“Of course!!! So, you can feel free to express yourself.”

It had already been three months since I had been on a mission with Winter, so it wasn’t a strange time for a good-looking man and a fairy to be together and be in love.

“…I will keep this in mind.”

While trudging up the mountain path with Jisoo in silence, a lovely peach caught my eye.

“Huh?!”

“Uh!!!”

Shouts erupted at the same time.

Their eyes slightly met each other.

Of course I thought Jisoo would give in, but guess what?

“Sorry!!!”

It was already running at full speed.

“…huh?”

Well… I told you to express your feelings, right?

Is there anyone who can give it to me…?

While I was just scratching my head, Jisoo was smiling brightly after picking a peach.

“Hehe…♡”

A bright smile that I have never seen before.

Who is so good… .

They say a woman is still a girl even after she’s over 30, and even in Jisoo’s appearance now, I could feel the sensibility of a fresh girl.

“Is it good~?”

“Yes~~!!!”

A faint smile bloomed on my face as I found softness after a long time in Jisoo, who had previously been hard.
