“I do it.”
Dok Go-jun, who had been quiet for a while, passed Hilde and Seo Jin-ah, who were looking at each other, and opened his mouth.
“Oh~. Black Knight.”
“I said this because only I can survive in this place. It has the ability to keep warm.”
Do you have that kind of ability?
What kind of ability do you have that you don’t have?
Of course, I also have a copy of a similar ability. Thanks to that, I didn’t catch a cold either.
“Isn’t there only one person needed in this space anyway? Release the two.”
“The one who releases it is Evaji. There is a sin I committed.”
“They did nothing.”
As for whether there was a crime or not, that guy was right.
But I want to keep Hilde locked up until she says she’s hungry and asks for help.
I wonder how long that noble attitude of not being able to sacrifice one’s body will last.
Seo Jin-ah, who was trapped, pounded on the protective wall.
“That’s right! We didn’t do anything to you! Rather, he tried to stop Dok Go-jun… !”
“… … … .”
On the other hand, Hilde just waits quietly.
It’s funny that the reactions between the two are so different.
“Hmm.”
Suddenly a good idea occurred to me.
“Good. I’ll release you both. ah. You are here alone and lonely.”
“… … Do whatever you want.”
He left only Dok Go-jun and took Hilde and Seo Jin-ah with him.
***
“… Why did you call me alone?”
Hilde was locked in the locker room again, and Seo Jin-ah was taken separately and moved to another place.
“Hehe… . I have something to suggest.”
“… Suggestion?”
Seo Jin-ah perked up her ears.
Hilde is single-minded anyway. Honestly, I don’t understand why I like that psychopathic killer so much. Is it because of the face? Or is it because the author set it that way?
Anyway, I got rejected last time, and I’ll give Hilde something to eat, so give me your body. What you are suggesting is that it doesn’t even work.
Then what about Seo Jin-ah?
This one is also an athletic style, so I have a great body.
“… I know the rumors. You make women sacrifice themselves and give them food.”
“Oh my. If you know that much, the story will be faster… … .”
“I will refuse. Because I don’t want to live my life in such a pitiful way.”
“… … .”
This one is also a pumpkin.
Well, I expected that to happen. Because he was like this in the original novel as well.
“Let’s listen to what people say to the end. When will I ask for my body? It’s not like that~. It’s about your abilities.”
“My abilities… … ?”
“We fight a bit, right? He also protects Hilde well.”
“… … … It seems like you know me well.”
then. I know. Because I saw it a lot in novels.
If Dok Go-jun is a dealer, this is a tank. The scene that appears the most is Dok Go-jun protecting Hilde, who he doesn’t care for, and supporting the party.
Moreover, due to the ‘awakening’ characteristic, it is essential in the latter half of the game, so Dok Go-jun takes it with him… … . There is also a setting called . Although I haven’t awakened from the original yet.
“Let’s see… … . Our crews often go out to look for survivors, but there are still many dangerous cases, right? So I’d like some help from you. There’s nothing special, just protect the crew so they don’t die.”
“In the search for survivors… ?”
“Yes. It’s not a bad thing, right?”
It’s actually a good offer, right? I’m not telling you to do bad things, I’m telling you to save people.
Seo Jin-ah crossed her arms and began to think seriously. I feel like it makes sense.
Shall we lay some more groundwork here?
“If you work, you will earn some coins. Because I won’t touch that.”
“Coin… … ?”
Seo Jin-ah’s eyes opened wide at the word coin.
──
“… … Secure your coins. This wall is level 4. You can destroy it as long as you have a level 4 or higher destruction ability. Until then, just pretend to obey what they say. Afterwards, keep collecting coins. I will let you know when the time comes.”
──
… … Didn’t Dok Go-Jun say that?
Seo Jin-ah will surely remember these words and be waiting for an opportunity. Since I was trapped, there was no way to collect coins until now.
“… good. I will do it.”
“Yes. However, there is a condition.”
“What else?”
“No contact or conversation with Dokgojun and Hilde while working with us.”
“… … What?”
“This is a rule that applies to our entire group~. Not talking or contacting sinners. Didn’t anyone talk to you while you were locked up or being dragged around?”
“… … Is it because of that rule?”
“That’s it.”
This rule was put in place because of several concerns. These are novel characters. There will definitely be people in our group who have read the original work, and they will know that they are the main characters of the novel.
For no reason, someone other than me was having an independent conversation and said, ‘Actually, I’m the main character of your novel.’ I don’t know what kind of confusion might arise if I say something like this. It’s safe under my control.
“But I don’t think you will follow the rules.”
I reached out to Seo Jin-ah.
[ Shh! quietly! has been triggered. ]
[Subject: Seo Jin-ah]
“… … !”
Seo Jin-ah’s voice did not come out.
Even though I try to speak by moving my mouth, no sound comes out, as if it is muted.
This is an ability I copied from the new mother who arrived earlier. I guess it’s probably an ability to keep the kids quiet?
He seemed to think he was hiding well at home with young children without being noticed by other predators or monsters, so he seemed to have completely covered their mouths.
“You can’t talk anymore, right? Even though I feel a bit frustrated while working, I stay like that.”
“… … !! … ! … … !!”
What is he saying now?
But seeing as he doesn’t really resist, it looks like he’ll just do as he’s told.
“Follow me. Because I have to go to work right away.”
“… … … .”
Seo Jin-ah nodded.
Remove the protective wall and remove the cable ties tied to your hands.
He follows me obediently with a determined expression.
***
Hilde was once again trapped in the locker room and was now used to being trapped.
‘To that devil-like person who tried to threaten me with hunger and Mr. Jun’s safety… … . ‘I never give in.’
Grumble.
I already starved for 3 days. Fortunately, a man named Park Dae-bu gave me water. Without that, my life might have been in danger already.
‘Jina… … Why did you call me? Is it okay?’
The man left him alone and took Seo Jin-ah to another place.
I couldn’t tell what the two were talking about. Considering the man’s habits, he might have been threatening Jin-ah by offering her food if she sacrificed herself.
‘Jina. You must never give in. never… !’
I was worried, but not anxious. Seo Jin-ah was a strong woman. So much so that he can protect himself. I couldn’t even imagine a woman like that giving in to a man like a pig like that.
Still, I prayed and prayed earnestly so that Seo Jin-ah would not give in.
Crash.
“… Mr. Jina?”
The door opened and Nom and Seo Jin-ah came out together.
“Uh… … ?”
There is no protective wall around Seo Jin-ah’s body.
There wasn’t even a cable tie to tie around the wrist.
A state of complete freedom.
“… … … .”
Jerk. Jerk. Jerk. Jerk.
Nevertheless, she was quietly following behind Daebu Park.
“Jina… … Mr.?”
A glance.
Seo Jin-ah looked at Hilde.
But he immediately turned his head.
“Oh… … … . Ji, Jin-ah? Where are you going! Mr. Jina!”
“… … … .”
Seo Jin-ah didn’t even reply a word. He continues to follow the man without even paying attention.
Instead, the man looked at Hilde and laughed.
‘Why is Jina following that man…? ? Why are you letting me go free? … . Could it be that that man offered to sacrifice his body… … !’
“Jina! Please answer me! yes? Mr. Jina!”
No matter how much Hilde shouted, it was no use, Seo Jin-ah followed the man and disappeared somewhere.
Hilde was left alone in the prison called the locker room.
***
‘sorry. Mr. Hilde. If you want to collect coins and escape, this is the only way… … !’
… … Aren’t you following along while thinking this? Seo Jin-ah.
Of course, I have a way to steal the coins I worked so hard to save.
Seo Jin-ah was handed over to the survivor search team. Our personnel have also become quite skilled, so the survival rate is over 80%, but if Seo Jin-ah joins in, we can expect a survival rate of over 95%.
Well then, this is over.
Should we check out the pseudo religion?
[ Ttabot is like my alter ego! The ability has been activated. ]

“I will gratefully eat the daily bread given by Almighty Yuna today!”
‘Fuck… … .’
Choi Sang-nap was kneeling, wearing the same clothes and in the same posture, among the numerous believers at Hapjeong Station.
What was sitting in front of my knees was black bean jelly.
To be exact, it was something that was made by clumping dried insects together into a bean jelly-shaped lump, and just by looking at it, it was dirty and could not even be considered ‘daily food’.
It seemed like they called it ‘bam-yanggaeng’ here.
“Thank you very much!”
“Thank you! Yuna!”
As the man in the robe shouts, the believers bow in unison. Choi Sang-nap also bowed his waist.
In front of countless people, out there.
It was aimed at someone hidden behind opaque glass.
‘Just looking at that, it’s a girl… !’
I couldn’t see her face clearly and I couldn’t tell her identity, but just by looking at her physique and silhouette, I could tell that she was a pretty young and pretty woman.
That woman is probably ‘Yuna.’
This bunch of bugs that don’t even look like food─ no, they are probably the ones who created ‘Chestnut Yogaeng’.
Here, Sang-nab Choi immediately had his backpack taken away by the executives, saying that other food would pollute his ‘spirit’.
‘And they’ll eat it… … .’
I thought maybe it worked that way.
By luring people by giving them food, and then taking away the existing food from the people they lured in.
“What are you doing? Don’t you eat it?”
Someone next to me gave me a prickly look.
“Ah, ah… ! Well, I have to eat it! You have to eat! Thank you. I will eat well. Yuna… !”
Choi Sang-nap closed his eyes and chewed ‘chestnut-yanggaeng’.
Wow.
‘It just tastes like bugs…’ !’
Of course, there was no taste at all.
“What are you doing! Don’t eat it quickly!”
“Well, I’m eating… … .”
When I looked back, I realized that he wasn’t talking to himself.
He was saying this to the two women right next to him.
A woman who appeared to be in her 20s was trembling while holding ‘chestnut jelly’ in her hand.
The young girl sitting next to me, who looked to be an elementary school student, was almost crying without even touching her.
‘… … ‘Is it pretty?’
Choi Sang-nap continued to glance at the women sitting next to him out of the corner of his eye while chewing ‘chestnut jelly’.
Of course, what he was seeing was also being seen by Daebu Park at the same time.
