15. Common Sense (1)

10 PM.

60 mental stamina recovered.

Goddammit, it’s taking too long.

Fifteen goddamn hours for full recovery.

Would’ve been twenty without my regeneration skill.

Still absurdly slow even with the 5-hour reduction.

Need to boost my constitution ASAP.

Suhyun stirred awake as I dressed. “Mmm…oppa…where?”

She was gloriously nude.

The way she sat up sleepily, breasts swaying-

-adorable.

I chuckled and pushed her back down, taking a nipple between my lips.

“Ahhn~” Her back arched.

After some playful suckling, I released with a pop. “Be back soon.”

She buried her face in the pillow. “Mm…be careful…”

The streets glowed amber under still-functioning streetlights.

Two weeks into the apocalypse and Seoul’s grid still held.

For now.

The underground parking garage echoed with growls.

Twenty-two infected later:

[Level increased by 2]

7 Acceleration charges spent.

Left hand getting more proficient-efficiency improving.

Across the street, a two-story house.

Elderly couple turned. Window bars couldn’t stop their snapping jaws.

Two quick stabs.

Total tonight: 24 kills.

Dawn.

The megamart’s entrance swarmed with thirty infected.

Impossible-cleared this area yesterday.

My eyes traveled up ten floors of retail and offices.

Upper residential levels explained the reinforcements.

Changed plans-clear the top floors first.

Let scavengers think the mart’s still hot.

We’ve got months of supplies.

Time for some vertical combat.
