“If that’s what Oppa thinks, it’s okay. I agree.”

“Thank you, Ah Young.”

Goh Ah Young and I went back to my room and entered the bathroom together to brush our teeth.

Brush, brush-

“Hehe.”

“…You’re cute.”

As we looked at ourselves brushing our teeth in the mirror, we looked like lovers who truly loved each other.

“Oops!”

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

As we were brushing our teeth, playing around with water for a moment, the joy and happiness of the situation made me momentarily anxious.

‘If her feelings change. If she suddenly disappears. If she sees my true self and despises me. If she… If she… If she suffers because of me…’

I know that people see someone like me and insult me as a psychopath or sociopath. I learned this fact from my family when I was young, and to hide this fact, I started acting, never revealing my true self even to my family.

‘But why now…’

Even when I dated someone normally or acted out the emotion of love for someone else, I had never felt the same emotions as I did now. The other person acted to feel love and happiness through me, while I acted to gain various experiences and succeed in society.

“Oops, it’s cold! Really~”

‘I’m not loving as a human. It’s possessiveness and attachment to my belongings. I just wish that what’s mine doesn’t change. It’s just those kinds of emotions.’

“Girlfriend, you’re done now, so can you leave? Haha~”

Cheon Sang Il, who had regained his composure by whipping himself, finished brushing his teeth, gave me a short kiss with water stains on his clothes, and left the bathroom.

‘I need to find my family.’

After becoming independent from my family, we saw each other about twice a year, but we all had unusual relationships and shared unbelievable stories, knowing everything about each other.

‘How do I get to Daejeon?’

I currently live in Seoul, while my parents live a beautiful married life in Daejeon.

‘My brother is even overseas.’

I remembered my brother who had gone to the United States to help with some experiments for a program being conducted by an American company.

‘I can’t meet anyone right now.’

I had been expanding my search around nursing homes, but now I decided to focus on Daejeon and slowly move forward. Ah Young, who noticed that my mind was elsewhere, looked at me with a puzzled expression.

“Oppa, why are you thinking like that?”

“Sorry, I was just thinking about my family for a moment.”

“Oh, no… But didn’t you say before that your family could survive on their own?”

Looking at Goh Ah Young, who remembered what I had said before and seemed more intelligent than I had thought, I slightly modified the information.

“Yeah, but I’m going to get help from my parents.”

“From you, Oppa?”

Goh Ah Young looked incredulous at the idea of me seeking help from someone, so I smiled and explained.

“Yeah, and my mother is a very strong person both physically and mentally.”

“I see…”

I remembered the time when my mother said, “I gave birth to you and raised you against my will, so I should be happy,” when I entered elementary school. Since then, I had feared my mother’s strength after witnessing a manga-like incident where the window in our house shattered when she angrily called my name. Despite feeling trembling just thinking about it, I also found her strength reassuring, and in that moment, I foolishly wished that my mother was by my side.

‘On the other hand, my father…’

Father may have a good body, but he is weaker than me physically, so he may not be much help in that aspect. However, I firmly believed that with his positive mindset and genius 4-dimensional brain, he would lead a bigger group than me while receiving protection from Mother.

“If I want to absorb Father’s group later on, I need to develop the New World quickly from now on.”

While those who will receive are still not thinking about it, the sight of them already preparing with anticipation might seem funny, but Cheonsang-il was confident that he had the ability to absorb Father’s group.

“So, I need to change the direction a bit from now on. Ayoung, come with me and the three kids to bring Grandfather.”

“Yes, brother.”

Having given a task to Go Ayoung, Cheonsang-il went into the meeting room to organize his explanation and prepare for the meeting.

“Has brother ever made such a face before…?”

Seeing the expression of fear and admiration on Cheonsang-il’s face, Go Ayoung thought about her brother’s appearance for the first time and quickly gathered everyone.

“It’s cumbersome and slow…”

Realizing that finding people, delivering messages, and repeating the process was slow, Cheonsang-il, who had been thinking about it for a while, decided to implement the broadcasting equipment, including speakers, during the construction work this time, and looked at the people gathered in the meeting room.

“Now that everyone is here, let’s start the meeting.”

The content of the meeting was simple.

“We will save many people in the future and invite them to the New World. To do that, we need to execute and develop various spaces such as a relaxing living space, a cultural space where people can have fun, and various facilities for people’s convenience.”

Pointing to the building where people currently live on the blackboard with a pointer.

“But, it’s difficult to implement everything right now, so we will plan and execute in a form that is easy to develop in the future and has few shortcomings even now. For now, this building we are in will be a complex building with residential, convenience, and cultural facilities. You can think of it as a 5-star hotel. The building will be called {Heroes}, which means sacred and connected to the gods in Greek.”

Cheonsang-il pointed to the buildings around Heroes and continued.

“Starting now, we will proceed with a major construction project for about 3 years, with the goal of creating a large farm, a large store, 3 residential areas, and laying roads everywhere. The residential areas will be three in total: the first area surrounding Heroes, the second area surrounding the first area, and a distant area with many production facilities and attached to the abundant and happy {Euphoria} in Greek.”

To provide a detailed explanation, Cheonsang-il shared the overall plan of the New World with everyone and provided additional explanations.

“Next, more areas and facilities will be added, but for now, we will bring goods from Euphoria to Heroes, the first area, and the second area, and supply them to Genesis, which means beginning in Greek, where people live, so that people living in Genesis can live a prosperous life.”

Handing out a piece of paper, Cheonsang-il continued with the rest of the explanation.

“Once the major construction is completed, people’s jobs will be divided into two categories: production workers who work and live in Euphoria, and service workers who work and live in Genesis.”

Allowing Sehee-sun, who raised her hand, to speak, Cheonsang-il said, “Any questions?”

“Do we really need to work in such a vast and inconvenient way? Our population is not even 70 yet, and it seems most efficient to simply cluster production and central facilities nearby.”

“That’s a valid point, assuming the population remains below 70.”

“No, even if you manage to gather a lot of people…”

“It’s possible.”

After using all the points obtained from hunting the awakened group for magic and divine power, I recorded a grade D score of 50, and after spending a night with Go Ah-young, I was able to expand the range of using the characteristic of unknown gaze a little more.

“With the increase in my abilities this time, I can easily identify where luck is gathered. I’m sure we’ll have to see it to believe it, but I can rescue over 5000 people within the next year.”

There may not be many people who have survived the zombie crisis, but with the ability to cure infected zombies into humans, she expressed confidence.

“Originally, rescuing 5000 people…! But seeing you show such confidence, there must be some definite method.”

“Thanks for believing in me.”

After answering Shi Hee-sun’s question and explaining all the detailed plans, they looked at me with admiration and gave me a thumbs up.

“Brother’s mind is something we can’t possibly keep up with.”

“Even to the extent of electricity facilities… It’s a complete society…”

“I didn’t know it would be this detailed…”

“Because it’s our brother. Et hem!”

Snap!

Although someone’s gaze was firmly fixed on me, I pretended not to notice and smiled.

“But are you really okay alone, brother?”

In order to carry out the major construction work, all the personnel except me were assigned to the construction, and I was the only one tasked with rescuing people, expressing concern about it.

“I’m not bragging, but I’m stronger than you think, and in case of emergency, I can come back from the new world alone. But it’s not the same for you guys. It’s much easier for me to run away alone than to protect you guys.”

With a slightly cold statement, everyone except Go Kang-hyun’s complexion darkened and their heads slightly lowered.

“Then today, I’ll go out alone. As I said earlier, I’ll head towards where our parents are and rescue people.”

Go Ah-young and Go Kang-hyun’s parents all died at home in the hands of their son, and Shi Hee-sun and Lee Hyun-soo had no relatives as they were all strangers.

“Take care of the newcomers and slowly prepare for the construction.”
