How much time has passed? Since I chose to hide underground, I can’t even remember whether it was day or night.

I kept eating, sleeping, waking up, eating, sleeping, waking up, repeating this.

It was so dark that I thought I wouldn’t be able to see anything, but my eyes adjusted and I was able to see a little bit.

I’ve been here for a really long time. I’ve been saving water, ramen, and meat as much as I can, but now I’m running out.

If you ask me if I have boiled ramen, I would say no.

Before my taste buds changed, it was delicious, but now it’s either something hard or something soft. It’s just one of the two.

Food was running low, so I waited another day. Strangely enough, I wasn’t hungry. I wasn’t thirsty either.

The situation outside has been quiet for a long time.

Let’s go now. We’ve held out for too long. We can’t just die here.

I can’t stand it any longer. I’m going crazy because I’ve been in this room of time and spirit for so long.

I went up to the ground and looked out the window. It was night. And it was raining.

Is this rainwater drinkable? I’m not sure.

I cut a plastic bottle into three parts and made a funnel.

I put them one by one in the opening of a plastic bottle and placed them outside. This will secure water.

” What should I do now.. ”

” What should I do? I won’t find it? ”

I turned my head and looked at the owner of the voice.

” What are you looking at? ”

There was Seoyeon with her neck twisted. If she turned her neck 360 degrees, it might look like that.

In fact, this is the reason why I couldn’t hold out any longer in that basement and came out.

Because when my eyes adjusted to the darkness, I had a hallucination that appeared next to me and constantly injected negative thoughts.

Now I no longer have hallucinations about dogs, but something worse has come out.

I ignored those words and turned my head away.

That Seoyeon with her neck twisted is not the Seoyeon I know. It’s just a hallucination.

If I see something like that, it means I’m so tired and exhausted that my psychological state is on the edge.

” Are you ignoring me? This girl is hurt. ”

Shut up, it’s noisy.

Don’t pretend to be Seoyeon on the subject of hallucinations.

” Do you know why my neck is like this? I committed suicide because I was abandoned by you! Hehe. How about you also let go of everything like me? ”

Please shut your mouth. Don’t touch my heart.

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard that. It feels like drinking poison.

That hallucination continued to hover around me without going away.

And I was laughing like crazy, not knowing what was so funny.

” Did that monster really go far away? When I go outside, doesn’t it come out to greet me as if it’s been waiting? Gosh! How romantic! Shouldn’t I accept that level of sincerity? Is it because I’m short and don’t know what love is? Ahahaha! ”

Even dog whining is really creative.

I kept hearing things like that and my teeth chattered, but I had no choice but to endure it.

Because that guy’s appearance was like Seoyeon’s, it made me feel guilty.

That doesn’t mean I threw it away.

If Seoyeon had stayed back then, the situation would have been even worse.

The monster would have killed Seoyeon and I would have been frozen in place in shock.

The monster wouldn’t miss it and would have secured me.

So my decision to yell at them to run away was right and it was the best decision.

” Is that really the best? ”

This hallucination pierced my mind and asked me a question.

” Do you know how angry I was back then? ”

I know. I saw you chewing your lip before you left.

Because I saw you crying and being sad.

” I told you I would protect you. You didn’t believe me or consider it. ”

No. It’s right for me to protect you. My body is constantly regenerating, so it can handle difficult things.

But not Seoyeon. If she gets seriously hurt, she might die that day.

So, I always have to be ahead.

You think of me as a child, but I’m not really a child.

Because I’m older than you.

This is the responsibility of the elderly.

” Huh. You speak well. Let’s see if that woman thinks the same way. ”

The hallucination that read my mind took a step back.

Those hallucinations often speak harshly, but they often back off after confirming my will.

As if he was polishing me.

####################

Before I knew it, the rain had stopped. It was still dawn and the sun had not yet risen, and the plastic bottle I had left outside was now full of water.

I tried it once and didn’t have any problems. So, at least to my standards.

I don’t know what it would be like if other people ate it. If you look closely, the water seems to have a slightly light green tint?

I packed my bags and rode my bike straight to Yeoju.

I took the national road instead of the highway. That monster might be waiting on the highway.

I didn’t know the national highway, but I had a rough idea of the route from the road signs and bus stop maps, so it should be correct.

I wasn’t hungry at all even though I hadn’t eaten.

However, the desire for meat continued to grow.

I tried to suppress it, saying now was not the time, but it was becoming increasingly difficult to hold back.

As I was moving for a while, I saw a dead animal in front of me that looked like it had been hit by a car.

The corpse was a deer. The corpse may have been old, but there were a few flies and maggots on its face.

Upon closer inspection, the torso was intact. The only thing that was shattered was the head.

I cut open the torso with a knife, buried my head inside, and started chewing.

This smell of blood is driving me crazy. Delicious smell and delicious blood and meat.

It was old and had many rotten parts, but I ate it without caring.

It was delicious. I was devouring it like crazy.

Even though maggots and flies got into my mouth, I just ate it as is.

Surprisingly, this bug also tasted good.

It’s a little bitter, but it’s not unedible.

It was an act that I could never have done rationally, but when I tasted that meat and smelled that blood, I lost all sense of reason.

I dug into the corpse with a happy expression. Ah, this part tastes better.

A person with a weak stomach would faint if he saw this sight.

The hallucination next to me also looked at me with a tired expression.

” Even so, it’s like that. Do you even covet such a rotten corpse..? Wow, really.. ”

Don’t look at me like that. This is so delicious.

I continued eating meat for a long time after that and woke up satisfied, because I had eaten all the edible parts.

It really goes into this tiny body constantly.

I looked at my bike to set off, and there was something sitting in front of it.

He’s 3m tall and muscular… huh…?

” Have you finished eating? “

how…

” How… ”

” I continued to patrol from the place where you disappeared. I caught you at the perfect time. Hahaha. Heaven is helping me. I kept my distance and followed you stealthily, but I didn’t know you’d be burying your head in a corpse and eating it. Do you like rotten corpses like that? That’s quite unique. “

” What are you going to do with me.. Why do you keep chasing me.. ”

” As I said last time, I don’t know. “

After saying that, the monster got up from his seat. And before I could run away, he grabbed my head in an instant.

” Aaugh!! ”

” Didn’t I tell you that I’d fix your bad habit? Because it’s really annoying when your toys keep running wild. Hehe. ”

The monster grabbed my foot with its left hand and pinned me to the ground.

bang!

” Ah.. ugh.. ”

I felt a tingling pain all over my body.

The monster picked me up again and used its rotational force to throw me in the opposite direction.

Boom!

” Ahh.. Ouch.. Ah.. ”

After repeating this several times, my body was covered in bruises and the pain was so intense that I couldn’t even scream.

” How is it, have you reflected on it? “

I barely nodded. I didn’t want to feel any more pain.

” Oh, but I have to prepare for the unexpected. I can’t help it since you keep running away. “

The monster grabbed my thighs with both hands and pulled them left and right, tearing them apart.

” Aaaah …

He screamed hoarsely in extreme pain.

The skin and muscles on my legs were torn and bones were pulled out. I could only cry and beg them to stop.

” Where are the other years? “

I kept my mouth shut, but that didn’t stop the snickers.

” Aren’t you going to say anything? “

” I won’t… I can’t… say that… ”

” I see. “

The guy let go of my thigh. Then he grabbed the other thigh and ripped it off.

” Hehehehehehe….. ”

My teeth were chattering. I wish I had just fainted.

” Don’t worry, I don’t plan on killing you. I’ll forgive you with this. Hehe, it’s not like you won’t die from this, you b*tch. “

The monster said as he threw my torn leg somewhere else.

” I must have broken my arm, but it’s fine now. So, won’t this leg grow back too? ”

I neither confirmed nor denied, only groaning.

It’s not that I wanted the other person to suffer, I just didn’t have the energy to do that.

My mind was so blank right now that it took me a while to understand what the other person was saying.

” Well, it doesn’t matter if it’s not. I’m adjusting it so that you don’t die. “

You think tearing off both legs is a form of control? He’s crazier than I thought.

The monster came close to me and laughed while strangling my neck.

” Hehe. Just take a quick nap and wake up. “

I tried to resist, trying to free the monster’s grip with both hands, but my strength was so weak that I couldn’t put up much of a fight.

” Go to sleep. “

And so my consciousness slowly faded away.
