50.

    The vibration of the bus makes me feel at ease. Lee Seong-han is not used to the peaceful and quiet atmosphere.

    Lee Seong-han hesitated for a moment and then stuck his head out the window.

    I felt sleepy. The sun was warm and the temperature was cool, so it was perfect for a nap.

    It takes 30 minutes by bus to get to the accommodation. It takes 1 hour by road. There are a few more stops to go.

    bang!

    The bus shook as it went over the speed bump.

    Clang!

    The head that was hitting the glass also ended up getting hit.

    “Eeeek!”

    Lee Seong-han screamed.

    I pressed hard on the temple with my hand.

    My head didn’t break from the glass, but the bruise always hurt. It just hurt. And what’s worse is that…

    Crackle-

    “Ah.”

    I hear a creepy sound next to me.

    The body was so strong that even the glass cracked. The white lines spread out like branches.

    “Kehem.”

    I decided to keep this quiet.

    What’s more important is that my nap plans were ruined. Sister Kang will take care of the broken glass later.

    Lee Seong-han put his hand on his forehead, his nerves on edge.

    I think I hear laughter somewhere. It must be the traits that are making a fuss again.

    “Oh, this is a dream.”

    My head feels like it’s going to burst.

    I opened my backpack on the floor, took out two painkillers, and chewed a few of them. After rinsing it down with 200ml of water, I sank down like a gentle lamb.

    I thought the sleeping place here was noisy.

    Today was especially bad. I had a dream about jumping off a bridge.

    I don’t know why.

    I remember it was when I was in college and was bored so I went out for a walk.

    Still, I’m glad I got to go home at this early hour.

    Because originally, I was being squeezed by the Kang sisters.

    While I was running away from the practical exam, I helped out with chores while I was being held by the association.

    Because the Awakened are only allowed to move during certain times.

    “… … You finished all this? All these documents?!”

    Kang Jin-young asked.

    I had just come back from a 30-minute long phone call at the office.

    “Yes. I organized it before I went because you said I needed it. I also made diagrams and formula interpretations here. I revised it because the content was too long.”

    “Mr. Sunghan. This is a week’s worth. Did you finish it all in the 30 minutes I spent answering the phone?!”

    “Yes.”

    “Even other public document formats are strictly followed?!”

    “Yes.”

    Kang Jin-young was frightened for a moment. It was a face he was seeing for the first time.

    “Why?”

    “Of course… …you’re not feeling well. Hehe, it’ll be fine. Especially since you were hit by shadow magic. Would you mind taking this? ”

    He handed me a white bag at the office.

    Kang Jin-young received it with a strange expression and checked the contents.

    “I want abalone porridge!”

    I was just about to escape after giving her a bribe full of affection.

    What kind of report can you handle in 30 minutes? At university, assignments like that were routine.

    Yeah, I live this hard life.

    Fatigue is creeping in. I’m so exhausted.

    My mind is clear, but my body is still full of energy and looks like a corpse.

    I want to take out my phone, but I can’t because there are eyes watching me. It’s in my backpack.

    There aren’t many passengers.

    There was only one woman in the back seat. Weren’t there originally this few passengers? It wasn’t like this when I returned to the dormitory before. It seems like everyone ran away because they were afraid of the awakened ones.

    When I took my eyes off of you.

    sudden-

    [‘Super-Reconnaissance’ detects imperfections.]

    Uncleanness?

    Before I could even think, a small, evil hand covered my eyes.

    Fidget fidget.

    I didn’t react at all. I thought I knew who it was. There’s a saying that goes, “If you meet a bear, stay still.”

    Although his opponent is a bear cub, he is a man who does his best even when dealing with elementary school students.

    “Hello, oppa.”

    “… … .”

    “Do you know how long I’ve been looking for you, oppa? Oppa, are you sleeping?”

    Crazy bitch.

    That was all Lee Seong-han could say.

    Where. Where from… … ?

    It’s also quite possible that he got the information in advance and waited. Should I just stay still for now? I don’t want to bother him for no reason.

    “Your hobby is just as pretty as your face. Oppa. Do you remember me, Oppa?”

    The hand that was covering the face was taken away.

    Pot!

    “Brother?”

    Kang Seo-jin looked much more lively than before.

    The baggy shirt was soaked with sweat, slightly revealing her chest and breasts. Her white thighs were also highlighted by the black skirt that showed off her H-line.

    Is that because it’s short?

    Or is it because I hate being young?

    It just looked like a kid imitating an adult. What’s cute about it? Just kidding? Oh, that’s right. This kid is an adult. I heard he turned 20 this year.

    Let’s not waste our energy. After all, everyone above us is the same.

    “Oh, oppa? You answered me well when we were at the association earlier. But you’re suddenly ignoring me. Are you sorry?”

    Oh, my body is shaking. This is what it feels like to be possessed by a ghost. We’re not in that kind of relationship.

    The golden eyes curved upward like crescent moons, as if asking for more attention.

    “Oh, oppa, do you remember that leg? ”

    No, we’re just meeting for the first time and I don’t know you at all. – Lee Seonghan licked his lips.

    I know you’re crazy.

    I also know that the most powerful person in the Gangcheon Group is trying to take advantage of me. But I never thought he would show up in person. I thought he would at least send someone.

    “Ugh······.”

    “said!”

    “Go, oppa is busy.”

    “No, I don’t like it. I came out on purpose to meet you. Do you remember? When we first met at our bridge.”

    I rubbed my eyes, thinking I might have woken up from a deep sleep.

    It doesn’t disappear.

    I heard that it’s definitely in the Gangcheonsa Temple. I’m getting embarrassed.

    When did you get out of here?!

    My eyes opened wide.

    “Haa… …What do you want?”

    “Brother.”

    “So what about me?”

    “itself.”

    “?”

    Lee Seong-han felt that the conversation was not going well.

    [Characteristic Enhancement Ticket]

    [Random trait acquisition ticket]

    [Compensation Extension]

    [‘■■■■Eyes (EX)’ is a newcomer and shouts.]

    [He criticizes harshly, asking why he is not being given special treatment.]

    [‘Super-reconnaissance’ is ridiculed as ‘sloppy~sloppy~’.]

    First of all, I think I should consider becoming a new employee.

    ***

    It was right before Hong Seo-min was arrested that the traitors started talking to him.

    To be exact, it means when I was hit directly in the back of the head by the genius Kang Mi-young of “Be quiet!”.

    “Brother. Do you remember me?”

    “Anna. Sorry, but I forget people’s faces.”

    “Why did you leave me behind?”

    “I didn’t throw it away.”

    “That’s right.”

    Lee Seong-han reacted as if he was annoyed.

    No matter how much this little guy is the king of the unemployed, he’ll end up like a stray cat in front of a person with a gun.

    It keeps getting on my nerves.

    “I just gave it to the person in charge.”

    “My sisters are not my family.”

    “They call me unnie.”

    I won’t mention it because the relationship isn’t good.

    That was clearly an act of provocation. Kang Seo-jin sat down right in front of me and turned around. In fact, I had chartered the bus.

    As expected, Gangcheon. This is the best interview method for a large company in South Korea.

    “Do you like the military, oppa? I don’t. I have a way to get you out of the military.”

    Lee Seonghan’s expression became rotten.

    “What do you want to say?”

    “… … If you make it mine, maybe there’ll be a way to get you out of that damn army? Hehe.”

    Kang Seo-jin with a sadistic smile.

    This is so ridiculous. Even if I had skipped the military service like that, the proud (sarcastic) Military Manpower Administration would have caught me and dragged me into the military.

    Some crazy guys ran away to America.

    The ban on leaving the country has been enacted into law.

    Thanks to that, the awakened ones can’t even travel abroad.

    It’s hard to conquer the top. I wish it wasn’t so annoying.

    Wheeeing-

    The alarm went off. It wasn’t me. My phone was in my backpack, so it was most likely in Gangseojin’s direction.

    Kang Seo-jin didn’t seem to care.

    “Hey, the alarm went off!”

    But he wasn’t rational.

    He was on edge and got up from his seat, shouting in a hurry. He grabbed Kang Seo-jin’s arm and made her stand up.

    “Huh? Isn’t that how alarms work? Is it because we’re in too much contact? ”

    “No. That’s a beep-beep. This is like an air raid siren! Get up! Something’s going on. Stay next to me. ”

    “Ooooh. Smells good.”

    “If I take care of you one more time, will you put me to sleep and take me away?”

    “Pfft.”

    Kang Seo-jin took out her cell phone.

    The culprit behind the notification is ‘Awakening Alarm Mobile’.

    It is used to notify the general public when a crime has occurred. That alarm went off…

    Squeak!

    -Warning. Warning. A dangerous object has been detected.

    The bus slammed on its brakes. The AI lost control.

    Since it is a driverless bus, all control is handled by AI.

    The warning alarm sounded from the driver’s seat. Of course, there was no other way. I’ve never driven a bus before. Moreover, there were civilians next to me.

    “Wow!”

    Kang Seo-jin, who was about to lose her balance and fall, reached out and skillfully hugged him tightly.

    “Huh, huh huh?”

    “Stay still. If you move, you’ll get hurt.”

    “Neeet… … … .”

    “Right.”

    The safety of the general public is a basic duty of a hunter. I stroked his head in case he panicked. I don’t think he would dislike it if he clung to me like this.

    “Ohhh, ohhhh.”

    I’m glad you like it so much.

    This must be filmed with a hunter cam. Doing such ‘positive’ actions will reduce the period of military service.

    There is no selfishness.

    Because it’s the right thing to do. Well, I wouldn’t refuse it if you gave me money.

    “This kind of thing.”

    Check the windshield.

    The final words came out on their own. A car came flying straight at me from the front. Almost directly.

    Did they mistake the driverless bus for an armored vehicle?

    The impact is unavoidable. Judging by the speed at which it flies, it takes 5 seconds. You have to cut it or escape before then.

    [‘■■■■Eyes (EX)’ says he will give you time to think.]

    The surroundings became blue and time slowed down. It was a familiar feeling. That guy had helped me every time I had a near-death experience.

    “What should I do?”

    [I object, saying that ‘■■■■Eyes (EX)’ is something that has already been decided.]

    “That’s true, but if even one hair on this kid gets hurt, I’ll become a traitor. Huh? ”

    Lee Seong-han swept his chin with his hand. His expression became fierce.

    “Because of the Hong Seo-min doll terrorism last time, all these laws were created. Because she’s a fucking bitch. Right? I don’t want to hurt other people for no reason.”

    It doesn’t feel like swimming in water, but more like facing a strong wind. Maybe it’s because I’ve grown up. I guess it was good.

    “There’s nothing I can do about it.”

    Lee Seong-han opened the backpack that was placed next to the seat. It wasn’t difficult to open it because time had stopped.

    When I opened the zipper, a pitch-black space was revealed.

    This is the secret weapon. It’s a versatile item that can be used with any weapon!

    I put my arms deep into my backpack and started rummaging through it.

    It’s nearby.

    I left it there for sure.

    There’s no way it wouldn’t happen… … ?

    “Caught.”

    A familiar grip that can be held in one hand. Even the rough engraving. It’s certain.

    Swoosh-

    A long sword that did not match the size was pulled out.

    It was just the right size for a sword. It was too heavy to swing with one hand, but there was no other way.

    [The Wandering Ronin’s Artifacts (Copy) (B)]

    -The sword of a wandering ronin. It was made by copying the original. The original performance has deteriorated, but there may be a way to restore it.

    -This item is currently bound to a subspace. If it is destroyed, it will immediately undergo a restoration process in the subspace.

    (Producer: Hong Seo-min)

    ‘Subspace.’

    A truly infinite space that can hold anything.

    It’s like eating porridge while making a stew.

    This is equipment obtained from each market. To be exact, it is a quest reward.

    The copy had remarkably low durability and would break after a few uses.

    Well, it doesn’t matter. It’ll be repaired anyway. He fastened the scabbard tightly to his belt and took a cool stance.

    I really wanted to try this pose.

    [I’m looking at the ‘■■■■ eyes (EX)’.]

    “Okay, just do it, honey.”

    If I show off a little, I’ll be able to go anywhere!

    [Ask if ‘■■■■Eyes (EX)’ is ready.]

    “Carrots.”

    Prepare to fire.

    If I take a nice picture of this, will it decrease more?
