There are three things that Korean men know well.

One is the military. One is a game. And the other one is Hoebinghwan.

In that sense, Lee Min-ho. No, Deus decided to accept reality.

Nothing changed as time passed. This world was not the place he lived in.

I think I was probably possessed by a novel I read yesterday. He was sure.

Then why on earth did you possess it? What is the reason?

『Writer. It’s a bit inconvenient that you don’t indent it. 』

Deus cupped his face. As expected, it was clear that the comment was the culprit.

But it’s a bit unfair. The atmosphere of the main story was so serious that I wanted to ventilate it a bit.

I even used cute emoticons to make it clear that I was never going to tackle him.

Without knowing the deep meaning of the reader, you suddenly possess him. This is a bit too much!

In any case, he became the possessed person in the novel.

As proof of that, there was something floating around in my head from earlier.

[Please decide on your pledge. ]

In the novel I read yesterday, the main character also used an oath.

A setting that is more restricted depending on its intensity, but also receives greater power.

A double-edged sword. A cursed oath that must be kept once engraved.

Deus quickly shook his head.

A novel that one possesses. The novel I read yesterday. The novel you commented on.

An apocalypse genre where gates open in a fantasy world and monsters pour out.

A coming-of-age story where the main character gets a job as a mercenary, becomes stronger, and eventually becomes the king of mercenaries.

It is a dark fantasy without dreams or hope. Countless people are dying.

Even the characters around the protagonist are no exception. In the serial three days ago, the heroine also died.

It was miserable just looking at the text, but now I have to face it with my own body.

Must live. At least, I don’t want to die as miserable and painful as them.

“It’s an oath.”

Deus sat down and thought of the main character in the novel.

The oath he used. An oath that bound and protected oneself.

What should I do? What kind of pledge do you have to make to be effective?

‘decided.’

Deus wins! and bit both of my fingers.

Just like you see in the novel. Just like the main character did.

Even though he may be nothing more than an extra, he still has to live.

With the belief that perhaps we can save a world without even the slightest hope.

“I. Can’t handle all weapons.”

One problem with the novel’s worldview. The enemy is not just the monsters beyond the gate.

There are plenty of traitors ready to stab you from behind at any time.

Cheap! –

The first oath is inscribed on the right arm with the bleeding index finger of the left hand.

Now I can’t hold any weapons.

Instead, as long as you keep this oath, no weapon can harm you.

“I do not receive any help in the fight I face.”

As always in apocalypse and dark fantasy, everyone who comes to help is dead.

Deus hated that. I wanted to draw a happy ending to this novel.

Even though I was possessed, it was a novel that had at least one clear feeling of affection.

This time, tie the second oath to your left arm with your right index finger.

From now on, he cannot expect any effective help in the battle ahead.

In exchange for that, you can break through any situation single-handedly.

“I.”

finally. Draw a blood line along your neck.

It was like a gallows rope hanging around one’s neck.

“Do not sit idly by and watch the misfortune of good people.”

There is only one way to survive the apocalypse.

Staying with those who deserve it.

It’s about winning someone’s heart, gaining their favor, and becoming a colleague.

From now on, he will become a guardian deity that protects all good people.

From now on, he will become a messenger who judges all evil people.

“These three things are my pledge.”

Can’t handle all weapons.

He does not receive any help in the fight he faces.

Do not sit idly by and watch the misfortune of good people.

At this level, I think I did pretty well for such a sudden pledge.

Deus thought that it was worthwhile to read the novel carefully.

[Your oath is of too high a standard. ]

“… Huh?”

That is, until a strange phrase came to mind again.

‘what’s this. The level is too high. The protagonist also used a similar oath well, right?

Is it because he is planning to possess an extra who has no role?

Or is it because the main character took the oath he had to take with him?

As I was quickly trying to think of another pledge, the following phrase appeared in my head.

[ With that in mind, preparation time is given to fulfill the pledge. ]

I’ve never heard of a setting like this in a novel.

I tilted my head for a moment, but immediately put it out of my mind.

If you give me time to train, isn’t this a good thing to be thankful for?

Before being possessed, he was originally an amateur martial arts athlete.

For someone who dreamed of becoming a professional, physical training was everyday life itself.

Deus focused only on training. I focused only on training.

If you think of what you want, it’s all ready, as if it’s a perk for the possessed person.

A perfect training ground. A thorough diet. And even real-life opponents.

Even the sense of how much time has passed has become blurry.

When your body is filled with 100% pure fighting muscles.

“Preparation is complete.”

Let’s do it. World destruction. I will proudly survive this apocalypse.

With a confident smile, the possessed person tore through the space and came out.

*

“Class leader.”

“Yes! Everyone, pay attention! To the teacher, salute!”

Wide open shoulders. A charred face. Even the scars engraved here and there on his forearms.

An exterior that is truly the pinnacle of ‘fierceness’. However, none of the students are intimidated.

Despite his appearance, he is a very good teacher. Perhaps the nickname is ‘deer eyes’.

“Is this the second week of the new semester? It’s a good morning today too. I will call attendance.”

Students’ names are called one by one, and they respond accordingly.

Someone is a noble with a last name. Someone is a commoner without a last name.

Everyone stays in one space as one student.

There is no sense of distance between them.

Nobles to commoners, commoners to nobles. I just deal with it without hesitation.

The reason is simple. Even though their status is different, they have some similarities.

“Lady. I trust that you have done all your homework today.”

“I’m dying, really. I told you not to call me that, right?”

A bright red flame rests on the index finger of a noble female student.

It’s not magic. It is a speech-type ability.

“Ah. I didn’t bring a pen. Can someone please lend me a pen?”

“Tell me honestly. Aren’t you noble? How can you forget every day?”

When the female student made a gesture, the pen on the desk floated and moved to the side.

Then the noble male student who said he didn’t have a pen said, ‘As expected, his telekinesis ability is the best!’ and laughs.

Ability. This is an ivory tower for those who wield that mysterious power.

“Irka Le Blanc.”

“Yes.”

“Marian.”

“Yes!”

As if the students’ chatter was cute, the muscular deer-eyed teacher continued his attendance in silence.

Then, when a name comes into view, I look up and look toward the back of the classroom.

“Deus.”

When the deer-eyed teacher calls attendance, the male student sitting behind raises his hand.

He is one head taller than the other male students. A body that cannot be hidden even by clothes.

I didn’t even pose, I just raised my hand. The curves of the muscles are clearly revealed.

Fight right away in your school uniform! It felt like the button was going to tear off.

He is truly an overwhelming young man. He is a person who seems to show off the essence of nothingness.

Even his eyes are so fierce that they seem to make anyone looking at him go numb.

In front of me, even skilled knights might hesitate to draw their swords.

“Deus. Are you really not planning on joining the martial arts club?”

“Sorry. I have no thoughts yet.”

“Hmm. Right. However, if you change your mind, please be sure to tell this teacher.”

Even so, the person in charge of the swordsmanship club keeps looking down on our martial arts club.

I held back the urge to hold that sturdy student’s hand and make a sincere request right now.

“Okay then. Let’s start literature class. The weather is nice, so it’s a good day to enjoy a poem.”

“Ohhh!”

“Deer Teacher! Please recite a poem!”

“Is that so? Hmm. Well then, let’s see. The poem we will learn today is-”

That muscle macho teacher is called a deer. And you’re a literature teacher.

Just by looking at his appearance, he looks like a mercenary leader harvesting orc branches.

Deus sighed after refusing the invitation to join the martial arts club again today.

When I turned my head, I saw all kinds of flowers in full bloom on campus.

spring. Beautiful season. The beginning of everything. New school year, new semester.

What could be more fitting as the beginning of a world full of dreams and hopes?

‘yes. A place full of dreams and hopes.’

Wow!―

ah. Did I squeeze it too hard? The new gripper I bought broke into pieces.

I heard that martial artists often use this. What’s so weak?

‘I was scammed. Shit.’

If a merchant had heard this, he would have refuted what he was talking about.

It is a tool favored by martial artists with exceptional skills.

I thought the young customer who came to buy this was definitely one of them.

So I offered it to them at the lowest possible price, but they said it was a scam!

“Ahh! Spring! You leave behind only your scent!!”

“Ohhh!!”

A muscular macho male teacher who passionately recite poetry.

Students sitting in their seats playfully cheering.

All kinds of flowers swaying gently in the spring breeze.

To conclude, the world did not perish.

It has not been destroyed ‘yet’. There was no destruction ‘in the first place’.

That’s because this world wasn’t destined to be like that.
