by fnovelpia” You… monster bitch… ”
” You told me to choose? Oh, you can resist, or you can run away. ”
” …Is it okay to run away? ”
” Yeah. You can run away. ”
The guy who heard me stood up carefully with his eyes fixed on me. He slowly moved back and started running.
I muttered when I saw that.
” A monster is a beast. ”
Lower your posture,
” And the beast hunts prey that has its back turned? ”
Started running.
############
” Gasp, gasp.. gasp.. ”
The man who had been sprinting looked back. There was only darkness.
That monster wouldn’t let you go easily. It was really horrible, like a scene from a zombie movie, biting your neck and eating it. Thinking back, I should have run away then. But who would have imagined it?
I really didn’t know that a girl who had been shot all over her body would get up and act fine.
Because I left my flashlight behind, it was pitch dark. It took some time before I could see anything in the darkness.
Now that we’ve gained some distance, it might be okay to move slowly.
Exit, where is the exit? I have to get out of here first.
This damn building has so few windows that it’s dark even during the day. If it weren’t for the real stuff, I would’ve abandoned it long ago.
Now, even though I was thinking rationally, my body was shaking.
Because I don’t know why you insisted on letting me go.
…No, actually I guess. I just don’t want to admit it.
This is hunting. I am the prey.
Besides, I feel like that monster is just tired of killing me and is just toying with me.
It was the same when we found the monster. Why did they bother to strangle it? They had a gun.
And he didn’t shoot me when I ran away.
I stopped in my tracks and looked back.
All that was visible were shelves with supplies on either side.
I looked up.
..there is just a tall pedestal.
I tried to listen closely, but all I could hear was my own breathing.
…all I can hear is my breathing…
Is this hell? Suddenly, I remembered that there was a time when two people were robbed and killed by their colleagues on the street.
Before he died, he said that you guys would definitely die painfully, and that it would happen even if I had to die.
What if the monster heard it from afar? Is that why this hell was created?
Thump, thump.
I was startled by the sound and turned around.
A soccer ball rolls here from beyond the darkness.
As I looked at it, my fear grew, my vision narrowed, and I started to sweat profusely.
Thud, thud. Thud.
This time there was a sound from behind… thud?
Do you usually hear that kind of sound from the ball?
I started to sweat more.
If someone saw this, they would have shouted, “Wow! Free broth!”
The man slowly turned around. The reason he insisted on checking this was because he couldn’t cut through the unidentifiable aspects of a person’s psychology without first checking it out.
There’s a saying that curiosity killed the cat, and that’s exactly what happened.
The man finally confirmed the identity of the unidentified object.
It was dark and I couldn’t see well, so I slowly approached and checked.
” Hee, hee, heeek?! ”
It was a head. It was the head of the guy who pushed me away and ran away.
A head with a terrified and desperate expression.
I fell to the floor and began to beg for forgiveness.
” I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Please forgive me! I did it just to survive! I did it because I was scared! I’m sorry! ”
Thump thump
I closed my mouth when I heard footsteps. A small figure was slowly walking towards me from over there.
The little figure walked over and said:
” You were having a great time despite that? ”
” That’s… That’s… Because other people do the same thing… ”
” Do other people do the same thing? If your friends are torturing a girl, do you go up to them and join them? Oh, this has already been proven, right? ”
” That’s… That’s… ”
” Well, okay. I guess I should give you a chance to live too. ”
The man who heard those words felt relieved, as if hope had been born,
” I’m going to do something to you, but if you resist it. ”
Hearing the following words, my anxiety soared.
” That… That… What is… ”
” Okay, this is a guy called K1, right? I’m going to shoot this thing three times in your hand. You choose which hand it hits. If you scream even once while getting hit by these three shots, you’re out. If you’re out, you have to play with me. ”
At the part where he said he had to play with me, the monster smiled innocently, befitting his appearance.
But the man, who knew that it was a monster made up of several people, was gripped with fear as soon as he saw that smile.
” Please… save me… save me. Please… please, I beg you… please… ”
” Hey, what’s wrong? Just hold on tight. It’s not that hard. ”
The monster approached, holding the gun in front of him, and spoke.
” Spread your hands. ”
The man trembled and spread his left hand wide. Then he closed his eyes tightly and began to clench his teeth.
My whole body was tense and I felt strength in my whole body.
” I’ll shoot when I count to one, two, three. Okay, one, two, three! ”
bang!
” Keu …
The bullet went into my palm and out the other side.
It has been penetrated.
The man desperately held back a scream, clutching at his palm.
I’m in so much pain I feel like I’m going crazy. I want to run away right now.
But it was obvious that he would be killed as soon as he ran away.
” It’s already hard. Okay, okay. Put your hands up quickly. You still have two shots left, right? Spread your hands wide. Yeah, yeah. Good job. ”
I held back the pain and raised my hands again, because I thought that the longer it went on, the more it would harm me.
It was easier to get hit and run quickly.
” Okay, one, two, three! ”
bang!
” Ugh, ugh, uh-uh, uh-uh-uh.. ”
I barely managed to swallow the scream that was escaping from my mouth. The second shot pierced the area below my middle finger, ripping my finger off and also ripping off some of the flesh on my palm.
My hands were throbbing and every time I did, blood would flow out.
The man raised his hand again to quickly take the remaining shot.
And bang!!
” Kkeu …
” Oh, sorry. Mistake. ”
The aim was off and it went through my wrist instead of my palm.
I don’t know if I burst a large vein, but the blood is spurting out.
Even though I tried hard to block it with my other hand, the blood continued to pour out.
Then suddenly I felt extremely dizzy, all the strength left my body, and I collapsed.
Then, I felt my body getting heavier and heavier.
In my blurring vision, I saw the monster approaching.
He grabbed my arm, brought it to his mouth, sucked my blood, and vomited out his feelings.
” It tastes good. ”
############
This guy seems to like sweets. What kind of sweetness does his blood taste like?
It kept sucking my blood. Then it pulled out the flesh inside and took a bite.
Hmm, not only blood, but everything feels sweet.
It’s still delicious. It’s the best.
I started chewing on my arm right then and there.
Moderate muscle and moderate fat. He looks like he’s in his mid to late 30s, but his flesh is fresh.
Now, there is no longer any aversion to eating human flesh.
I don’t know if you can say I adapt quickly or if I’m just indifferent, but isn’t it a waste to throw up what I’ve eaten?
He moved his hand to the corpse’s chest and tore at the skin tissue.
It also tears apart the muscles, breaks the ribs inside, and throws them out.
So, around here… is this it?
I took what I was holding in my hand out and checked it.
It was still a warm heart.
A survival expert once said that some tribes consider hearts a delicacy, but what does it taste like?
A bite of heart.
” Sigh… ”
It feels like eating the highest quality Korean beef!!
Oh my, I never thought that taste would come from a human heart..!
He bit his heart while laughing happily.
” Hee, heeek! ”
Someone made a terrified sound.
I turned my head there and there was a woman who had been hiding.
” What, you couldn’t stand it and came out? ”
” Yes.. Yes? ”
” If you had been waiting, I would have gone. ”
Didn’t I tell you to wait? Oh, honestly, I kind of forgot. The meat is so delicious.
Come to think of it, you’re wearing clothes. You look like a giant though.
” That.. That’s because I can’t hear the men screaming anymore.. So.. ”
” Does that mean you should wander around like that? ”
” Sorry, I’m sorry.. ”
I heard that and chuckled.
He came closer and showed me the quarter-sized heart he was holding in his hand.
” Want to eat? ”
The woman’s pupils shook as if there was an earthquake.
” Do I have to eat that..? ”
” Just kidding. ”
This delicious thing is mine.
He put his heart into his mouth and chewed it.
The woman’s pupils shook even more when she saw that sight.
To be honest, I wanted to eat more, but I still felt a little awkward eating human flesh in front of other people.
I wouldn’t mind if she was someone I wanted to kill, but this woman is someone I would let live.
” It looks like there are two hostages up there. Let’s take them out. Is there anyone else we can take? ”
” Oh, no.. ”
” Oh, take this. ”
He put the K2 in the woman’s hand.
” How do you use this? ”
Oh, I don’t know.
” Just pull the trigger there. Just aim roughly and shoot. If you can’t shoot, just aim. ”
” Do I really have to take this..? ”
” Then? What should I do when I meet a robber? Kneel down and beg? Carry it with you. ”
So we went up to the second floor.
##############
” Sister.. There’s a loud noise outside.. ”
” …Just stay still. ”
I hear gunshots outside. I hear them inside too.
The gunshots were heard not just once, but multiple times.
I caught a glimpse of him once and saw him shooting at some robbers.
But it seemed like they were at a huge disadvantage. They soon ran inside.
The robbers followed and later more entered.
Gunshots rang out from inside too.
I still hear it sometimes.
Actually, if it’s an opportunity, it’s an opportunity. An opportunity to get out of here.
In a time of confusion like now, it might be the perfect time to run away.
But you need to have a weapon, at least. If not, at least a sword.
” You want to go out? ”
” Huh? Yeah.. well.. ”
” Then follow me. ”
If you meet a robber, you can use this guy as bait.
I opened the door and went outside, and there I saw a man crawling on the floor.
There was blood coming out of both feet and his hands didn’t look all that good either.
The woman’s eyes sparkled when she saw that.
