That day seemed particularly lucky. ​ ​

    Not only did I find a job in 15 days, but I was able to get a lot of information about the dungeon by being among the hunters.

    In addition, there is very little baggage to carry, and the hourly wage is as much as 10,000 won… . It was a condition he had no choice but to follow.

    ‘They say I’m somehow lucky.’

    Jeong Yu-jin thought so as she looked at the scattered corpse pieces. He seemed quite calm for the end of his life.

    Where on earth did his luck fail? What if you were messing around here and there trying to find a hidden piece, and the leader of the raiding party was stabbed to death by a flying poison arrow?

    Or when unexpected dungeon monsters swarm in and kill off party members one by one?

    If not that too… . Are you now abandoned just because you are a burden?

    ‘My life really… .’

    Eugene thought his luck had run out in a more fundamental way.

    Hunter.

    A new word that refers to a state in which humans awaken to new abilities. The day Jeong Yu-jin turned 15, he confidently awoke as a hunter.

    At first it was very, very good. Physical strength and strength superior to that of ordinary people… . It was very exhilarating when he stuck his fist in the face of the bullies who were bullying him because he was an orphan.

    As all lucky people think so. It felt like everything in this world was on his side… .

    However, Jeong Yu-jin’s illusion was shattered when she turned 20. The moment I turned 20, I realized that I had no talent.

    ‘If only the constellations had awakened in the first place, this wouldn’t have happened.’

    But to be precise, he was not lucky. Although he was awakened as a Hunter, he was unable to awaken the Constellation.

    Constellations are beings that protect humanity. Hunter can be seen as a vessel to receive such power.

    Just as the larger the bowl, the more contents it can hold. Basically, the stronger your physical ability, the more you can increase the power of the constellation.

    “Ah. come. Fuck…. the timing is perfect. I don’t even give you time to lament.”

    Okay, okay. I can hear the sound of walking on the stone floor. The sound of skin sticking and falling and the slow thud of military boots in half a beat! I heard:

    It was Hunter. A human who would have been alive just a few minutes ago. Jeong Yu-jin was able to recognize the face of a man who suddenly appeared in the dark.

    ‘It wasn’t a face worth looking at to begin with. It’s really become so fucking ugly, anyway, greedy people…’

    The man had fluid dripping from his entire body. Where on earth had the military boots gone? One foot was left rotting. One of the pupils was full of maggots.​

    “Really fuck… . Anyway, you threw it away, but it didn’t last long before you gave up? It’s all different”

    Hunter, who insisted on abandoning Jeong Yu-jin, who would not be helpful in the battle because he did not have a constellation, ended up dying. I am not very happy about that fact.

    The man died and became a zombie. A living corpse. A vicious and terrible monster that lusts after the flesh of the living.

    “Ajae. I might be able to hear it, but… . If you have a conscience, can’t you die gracefully?”

    “Uuuu—!”

    “That’s damn good! really. Oh please!”

    The zombie rushed towards me, baring its teeth. I don’t know where the blow came from, but the number of exposed gums was greater than the number of healthy teeth, but they were suitable for tearing off Jeong Yu-jin’s flesh.

    Fortunately, it wasn’t fast. It’s slow. Thanks to that, Yujin Jeong had some free time, and she remembered the lessons she learned at the basic hunter training center that cost 100,000 won.

    ‘The zombie is trying to bite me from the shoulder… . All you have to do is avoid it and stick the knife in its neck.’

    I guess giving 100,000 won was really worth it. As taught at the training center, the zombie rushed to bite Jeong Yu-jin’s shoulder.

    Zombies are slow though. The force is very strong. If you are caught, you should be expected to die.

    He then calmly slipped to the left. A folding knife was inserted into the zombie’s neck. Because I sharpen it regularly, the blade cuts smoothly.

    “Keuok… . Oh my gosh!”

    “Make it fine! Die!”

    Plop plop—! A normal person would die if a blade was inserted into an artery, but this was not the case for zombies, beings who came back from the dead. In the end, Jeong Yu-jin had to dig in despite the threat and do the cumbersome task of taking out the knife and putting it back in.

    After several scuffles, the zombie, who was originally a teammate, fell limp. He died once more.

    ‘The first murder is a zombie… . No, should this be considered murder? ‘I’m not human anymore.’

    No time to get into trouble. The sound of walking was heard in the dark.

    Crack, thump, thump.

    Not one this time. three… . No, this is just wishful thinking. You will have to look beyond that.

    ‘Will it fly? But, where should I go? Let’s go into the dungeon. ‘I have nowhere to go.’

    If you throw yourself into the darkness of the dungeon, you can escape from the approaching zombies. But that’s only a temporary reprieve from death. It’s not something you can completely escape from.

    A dilemma. Where on earth should I go? Jeong Yu-jin thought for a moment about whether to die later or now. I soon came to a conclusion.

    “To the subject who left me to die! Don’t you guys have any conscience?!”

    Like many people. I chose to live even one second longer than die miserably.

    I throw myself into the darkness surrounding the dungeon. The unique moisture licks the skin, making it sticky. Still, I continued to run because I was confident in my physical strength.

    ‘Fuck real life! Fuck! Sibaal! ‘Why does this only happen to me!’

    Run, run again. I’m out of breath. My legs are shaking.

    All kinds of random thoughts arise. When I first awakened my Hunter ability… . When you first entered the dungeon, someone cruelly told you that you could not awaken to a constellation.

    When I got angry for no reason and attacked him, I was hospitalized for 3 weeks.

    … Most of the memories were not very good. Jeong Yu-jin covers her head in pain, but stops. I hit my face on something and fell straight out.

    “Ahh! My nose!”

    It’s not a face worth looking at, though. Still, I am sensitive to getting my face hurt. Especially the nose. If it breaks, it becomes difficult to breathe. Of course, it also becomes difficult to escape.

    ‘It’s not broken. What the fuck did you hit? Is it a wall? I’m sure there’s a dead end here… . ‘I ran with great difficulty.’

    Jeong Yu-jin stood up, tracing the wall blocking her with her palm.

    The wall… . I didn’t think so. Something strange is caught in my hand. mural? I don’t know why, but he thought he might have to check this out.

    So it was not strange that he lifted the flashlight on his belt and turned on the light. Although it was clear that this was not something someone being chased by a horde of zombies would do.

    [Whoever reads this article. Your empty vessel will be filled with mother’s teachings.]

    [So if you become a vicious beast, grace will become a curtain and cover the world.]​

    ​​

    The mural had an incomprehensible language written on it. In fact, it was unclear whether it was even a language. Maybe it’s a doodle written by an ancient person as a joke. This is a very common thing.

    ‘But usually dungeon murals are in Korean? ‘Maybe it’s Latin.’

    But strangely enough, Jeong Yu-jin was able to read this mural. Is it because I hit my head too hard? He touched the mural, hoping he wasn’t in the pre-concussion stages.

    “Ah! Fuck… .”

    Then, I suddenly felt an intense pain, as if a sharp needle was digging into my finger. He was so embarrassed that he pulled his hand back. He looked down at his hands.

    does not exist. The needle was clearly dug in? He felt a strange sense of déjà vu because there was not a single drop of blood.

    And that feeling of déjà vu soon became reality. My vision became slightly blurry, and then infinite ecstasy spread to every corner of my body.

    [The Mother of Blood is watching over you.]

    “What?”

    Jeong Yu-jin was so shocked that she fell backwards. Wasn’t this the constellation he had longed for just a moment ago?

    The way the constellation spoke was very fascinating. A voice sounded as if someone was whispering in my ear.

    ‘What on earth…? . I just did. ‘Has the constellation awakened?’

    It was a very different method from the method that Jeong Yu-jin knew. Usually, hunters receive the Constellation the year they turn 20, or by accumulating amazing achievements in a dungeon.

    Naturally, he failed to meet both requirements. Even though I caught a zombie, I wasn’t brave.

    [The Mother of Blood asks.]

    [It’s my child. Why are you shaking? For a prophet who will cover this world with darkness, he looks very ugly.]

    [Go ahead and spread your great genes to females all over the world. My Eugene.]

    Is it because I hit my head too hard? Or is it because I was surprised by an impossible situation?

    “Hahaha….”

    Stop being Jeong Yu-jin. I lost consciousness and collapsed.
