    Half the World (2) ― Marine Hotel, Jung-gu, Incheon

    There was a loud rushing noise coming from the top of the stairs.

    I looked back at Kim Hae-il and smiled.

    “It’s been a while since we met survivors outside.”

    “I will take the lead just in case. Teacher.”

    “No, no. Stay back until I tell you.”

    I waved my hand lightly and continued to climb the stairs.

    “Fuck! They are real Tess bastards!”

    A sharp curse echoing at the end of the stairs going up to the second floor.

    The sharp, tearing tone was, without a doubt, a woman’s voice.

    Dozens of women looking down on us from the second floor.

    Among them, I took a close look at the woman standing at the forefront.

    Dolphin pants that do not suit the voluptuous straight legs and apocalypse at all.

    Her bulging breasts couldn’t be hidden even with a black short-sleeved T-shirt, and her face was frowning as if she had seen something she shouldn’t have seen.

    “Oh… … .”

    I couldn’t hold back and let out an exclamation.

    He was the owner of a beauty that stimulated the desire to collect for the first time in a long time.

    The frowning expression filled with growing disgust looked similar to Seong Ga-eul at first glance, but it was different.

    If Seong Ga-eul was the subtlety of a slightly luxurious breed, that woman looked like a stray cat with a lot of rebelliousness at first glance.

    Not just any stray cat, but a pretty stray cat that easily breaks the cutoff line I set.

    “Fuck you! Don’t ignore those dirty scanning eyes!”

    … … See the insight?

    She immediately kicked off the floor and ran towards me.

    The red mana filled with her right hand poured out so quickly that an afterimage remained.

    ‘… … ‘Awakened?’

    It was as if life had become standardized, and it was so threatening that just looking at it made my heart tremble.

    “… … Huh?”

    If that fist had reached me.

    She was stuffed in the air by his lightly extended right hand.

    As she was assessing the situation with embarrassed eyes, he sent her back to the space she came from.

    bang-!

    “Sisteriii!”

    “So, Soyoungaaaa!”

    Oh, if the name is Soyoung, it’s pretty.

    Because you have a pretty face, I like everything.

    I naturally climbed the stairs again and entered the second floor lobby.

    Dozens of women, looking at Kim Hae-il and me, were stepping back with bleached faces.

    “Ssivaaal!”

    She, who had been buried in the broken wall with a crude swear word, rushed forward again.

    Red mana now pulsates from the whole body, not the right hand.

    It was a typical pattern seen when a physical awakened person exerted his/her full power.

    Perhaps thinking that a straight approach was a problem, she moved violently left and right, causing confusion.

    ‘It’s unique and cute.’

    Even when the attack was heavily counterattacked and the situation became anti-gross, the cause was analyzed and countermeasures were implemented.

    Her combat sense was uncharacteristic of a woman.

    Of course, it still couldn’t escape my sight.

    “Keuuu!”

    ‘Joowon… … ‘You were a really strong awakener, weren’t you?’

    To be honest, it was much easier than Seo Joo-won.

    Perhaps a big part of the benefits gained in Guro-gu was killing Seo Ju-won in advance.

    Once again, I admired her stuffed in the air from a different angle than before.

    Her fashion and face were like those of the honorable Iljin girls I used to see in school, so I was so sick of her.

    ‘and… His face is just like that of a bully.’

    This is a treasure… … .

    “This, this, this! Everyone run away!”

    It was a wise, but somewhat late decision.

    The survivors who were about to turn their backs immediately upon her words froze.

    There were no survivors in the second floor lobby who had escaped my telekinesis.

    Caught in the air, she tried to shake off my telekinesis, but the only result was that her trembling thighs made me more attractive.

    But this time, instead of blowing her away, he let her land gently on the floor.

    And the survivors bound by telekinesis were placed in a line.

    I scanned the faces of women who were shaking from the external pressure that forcibly controlled them.

    ‘What kind of women’s college MT survivors are these?’

    But is there a university that offers MT at a 5-star hotel?

    The sex ratio and age are so shocking that you can make such ridiculous predictions.

    The survivors were about twenty young women, not a single man.

    Moreover, the standard of appearance was quite high.

    The only woman who could rub up against the executives was that gangster, but they were at the top.

    Since I have seen thousands of believers so far, it was a fairly reliable standard.

    This was the first time in my life as a religious leader that I had literally been in a flower garden like this.

    Among them, I took another look at the bully I was particularly eyeing.

    My telekinetic-bound mouth continued to mumble, but there was something I had to do first.

    “Vice-leader.”

    “Yes!”

    When my name was called, Kim Hae-il shouted while reading the document.

    “Do any of you have a prospective believer named Jeong Jeong-ah, the granddaughter of believer Deok-sun Kim? This is Jeong Jeong-ah. affection. castle. Ah.”

    The eyes of the woman on the far right widened at the repeated mention.

    I asked, untangling the telekinetic hold on her.

    “Are you Jeongseongah?”

    “… … Yes, yes. Well, I… ”

    In fact, Hae-il Kim and I had already seen the photo, so of course we knew who Seong-ah Jeong was.

    However, this was more about letting the other survivors know that we had come for this reason.

    ‘hmm… … The real thing is a little better.’

    I quietly admired Jeong Jeong-ah’s face and then glanced at the gangster on the far left.

    Well, since there is a full moon, the fireflies can’t show off their strength.

    “Welcome, Jeongseong-ah―”

    “Vice-leader.”

    I raised my hand to stop Kim Hae-il and calmly shook my head.

    I didn’t want to cause rejection from that bully who showed his religion from the beginning and ran wild like a bulldog.

    A somewhat pretty ordinary person and an awakened person, but a beauty.

    This priority was very clear.

    “I’ll kill you! You fucking bastards! I will definitely kill you guys!”

    As soon as you open your mouth, a swear word rings out loudly.

    I asked Jeong Sang-ah with a calm expression.

    “That woman’s name is Soyoung?”

    “… … yes? yes. Shim So-young… … .”

    “Seong-ya! Don’t even talk to those tess bastards! Have you already forgotten everything?”

    “Ah… … No, no, sister.”

    At Shim So-young’s shout, Jeong Jeong-ah bowed her head and hesitated.

    People who knew their grandmothers from outside.

    Even though curiosity was welling up and there were elements that made her wonder, Jeong Seong-ah didn’t say anything, as if she was hoping for Shim So-young’s permission.

    I’m sure I know who the leader is.

    Even though you are an awakened person, you must be young.

    In addition, I was concerned that Soyoung Shim was Tess, who kept crying out.

    Tesla for men… … .

    Are you talking about testosterone?

    what the.

    He quietly laughed and spoke to Shim So-young.

    “We are grandmother Kim Deok-soon’s colleagues. At his request, I would like to take his granddaughter, Jeongseongah… I hope for your understanding.”

    “Don’t be damned! Then why didn’t Grandma come and only you two Tess came?!”

    “You should have brought your grandmother? Through that hellish outside? That’s too far-fetched. He is waiting anxiously for his granddaughter in a safe place.”

    “Fuck, don’t shave your mouth like a dog! Then how did you know Seong-ah was here? Grandma must have thought that Seong-ah was in college, so how did she get here!”

    What, weren’t we all gathered here together?

    I lightly shrugged my shoulders and pointed to Kim Hae-il next to me.

    “You’re not the only one who thinks you’re an awakened person, right? We also have our own methods.”

    “Uh… !”

    Seongah Jeong, who was watching our conversation, was surprised to see the photo Haeil Kim showed.

    A photo of my grandmother and myself with my hand on her shoulder.

    A home I can no longer return to.

    A room you can’t return to.

    The man was holding a photo that could only be found in a frame that was placed intact on the desk there.

    “Uh, sister!”

    “Don’t believe it! Those bastards were forced to come in like this?!”

    hmm… … Isn’t that what a woman who attacked with the intention of killing would say?

    I laughed heartily and continued to provoke her reaction.

    This was the conversation that started for that purpose in the first place.

    “You bastards! Fucking bastards! I have to cut it all off! Why do you keep hurting vulnerable people! Why are you so impatient to take these people this far!”

    Oh, look at those eyes.

    The blood-veined eyes were shining with life.

    At Shim So-young’s words, all the women bound by telekinesis had tears in their eyes.

    “Do we have to do this?! Do you feel comfortable having to come in like this and make fun of that dickhead? Or are you here to take revenge on the bastards I killed?!”

    “Kill? Who?”

    “Of course you fucking tess! I’ll kill you too soon! I will definitely kill you!”

    Are you saying this because you are aware that you are tied to me?

    That reaction with red-open eyes and jumping like a freshly caught big fish.

    If you’re under me, you’ll glow even brighter, right?

    This woman… … What about in bed?

    Just thinking about it made me swallow the drool that was forming in my mouth and shook my head.

    She is not a woman who will be used once and thrown away.

    “… Dirty animals that only think about their own sexual desires. A beast that solves everything with violence. A body that goes out and brings infection and danger. The most inferior bastards in this world.”

    “So, we are Tess. What, are you talking about testosterone?”

    “Yes. You little chimpanzees.”

    “So are you S? Estrogen.”

    “No.”

    She gritted her teeth and answered, looking me dead in the eye.

    “We are human.”

    oh.

    Clap- clap- clap-

    I nodded and applauded with admiration.

    As soon as the applause that resonated in the lobby ended for a while, I asked Soyoung Shim.

    “First of all, I have one question. As far as I know, men also have a certain amount of estrogen and women also have testosterone. Then aren’t you Tess too?”

    “I’m saying that testosterone is the most inferior and harmful substance, you poor test bastard.”

    aha.

    I nodded slowly and glanced at the survivors.

    The fear and fear filled in their eyes.

    This is the realm of emotion, not understanding.

    It was definitely the right choice not to take a religious approach.

    No matter how much I emphasize to them, I will be seen as a man and not a cult leader.

    I removed all the seals covering the survivors’ mouths.

    “Puha! Please! Please save Soyoung!”

    “Ho, are you from Dream City Apartments? Well, then take me back and don’t touch Soyoung, please.”

    “SH Are you from Bank? Well, then I’ll go back!”

    Their screams instantly made the lobby buzz.

    Not only did I know that they came from different places, but I immediately understood how they lived.

    And the reason for the anger boiling from the bottom of Shim So-young’s heart.

    With that thought in mind, my heart sank as I looked at Sim So-young.

    then… … Is Shim So-young also a victim of some kind of men?

    “Have you been treated badly by men too?”

    “Why? Are you sad that you’re not a virgin? What should I do because I’m fucking sorry? I’ve already used a dildo to pierce all the places that a bastard like you can’t?”

    “… … Dildo?!”

    Not a man, but a dildo?

    I couldn’t hide the joy in my voice for a moment.

    When Shim So-young was delighted with the words thrown out to ridicule her, she became even more excited and shouted.

    The use of dragons to escape telekinesis was evident in the trembling cheeks.

    “Do you think I’m going to get bullied by those fucking Tess bastards?! You’ll die! I’m going to fucking die!”

    uh… … I always bite my tongue when I see things like this, but I don’t do that again.

    My concerns were immediately resolved by Soyoung Shim’s next action.

    She continued to wink at the survivors, drawing their attention to herself.

    Is that why it’s glowing like that?

    Moreover, if you listen to what those women say, isn’t it true that it was Shim So-young who saved them in the end?

    and… … .

    You really are Joan of Arc.

    “Vice-leader.”

    “Yes!”

    But does she know that this only aggravates my desire to collect?

    I lifted the telekinesis that bound Soyoung Sim.

    Perhaps because she was continuously straining her body to escape the telekinesis, she fell to the floor as soon as she released it.

    I asked, looking at her trembling arms as she slowly stood up.

    “No matter how much I said it was a misunderstanding, I knew it was not a situation where people would understand. Since we are men, we will be your enemies. So we propose a deal.”

    She barely stood up and stopped running at me again when she heard the word ‘deal’.

    I looked at Jeong Jeong-ah and asked.

    “Are you willing to follow us back to your grandmother?”

    “… … yes? Ugh… … .”

    Her eyes are restless and only look at Shim So-young.

    I nodded and said that I understood.

    “Yes. Of course they won’t trust us.”

    “… … Sorry, sorry.”

    “No. If I had known this would happen, I would have brought Deok-sun Kim with me. But we also worked very hard to get here.”

    I pointed to Kim Hae-il, who was waiting in front of me holding a spear.

    “If you defeat my colleague, we will leave cleanly like this. But if my colleague wins, I think you’d be grateful if we could give him time to persuade Jeong Seong-ah, right?”

    “… … Persuasion?”

    “Yes. In fact, the materials our group consumed to get here are enormous. Even if I go back, I have something to tell my grandmother.”

    “… … Don’t keep talking like your real grandmother is still alive.”

    “Unfortunately, we have no means to prove it.”

    To be precise, I don’t want to prove it.

    I looked at Soyoung Sim and urged her to answer.

    “So. Do you want to do it?”

    Hehe!

    After clenching her teeth and spitting out the blood that had accumulated in her mouth, she glared at me behind Kim Hae-il.

    “Wait. I will kill you too soon.”

    “Your answer is a bit extreme. Vice leader.”

    As soon as I finished speaking, Haeil Kim raised the tip of his spear and ran towards her.

    Thump, thump, thump, thump!

    Perhaps because he couldn’t bear the continued cheeky answers, his movements were much more intense than usual.

    Shim So-young’s whole body turned red again as she glared at Kim Hae-il.

    The spear filled with Kim Hae-il’s white mana spun around and aimed at her face.

    Despite her strength, she barely managed to avoid the tip of the spear, and her hair fluttered in the air.

    ‘Oh, maybe I should have told you not to attack the face.’

    I quietly sat back and watched the duel, the outcome of which was clear.

    Pow!

    “Soyoung ahhh!”

    “Ahh! oh my god! What should I do?”

    Shim So-young, who was hit on the back by a spear wielded by Kim Hae-il, flew through the air again.

    Awakened people become stronger with points.

    However, points cannot be used only for growth.

    Numerous items and food that humans cannot give up also now had to be purchased with points.

    I smiled as I saw the skinny cheeks and dry arm muscles of the survivors shedding tears of sorrow as they looked at Sim So-young.

    They do not have enough food.

    So, where do you get food from?

    It was obvious, needless to say.

    An awakened person who is constantly leaking points such as sanitary pads, water and food needed for daily life.

    “Big!”

    Shim So-young gets hit by the spear again and rolls on the floor.

    Kim Hae-il, who was looking at her indifferently, flicked the window and walked towards her.

    An awakened person who only spends his points on growth without purchasing food or other items.

    In addition, the Awakened people who collected points by running through the city and slaughtering zombies and mutants were of a different class.

    Shim So-young tried to raise herself up using her slightly trembling arms as support, but her arms slipped repeatedly and she fell to the floor.

    She stared at Kim Hae-il with eyes full of venom, but he looked down at her with unimpressed eyes.

    Kim Hae-il turned his head and looked at me.

    When I nodded, he immediately put down his spear.

    puck!

    “Aaaaa! Soyoung ahhh!”

    “No, no, no!”

    The survivors, whose telekinetic powers were released, ran to Sim So-young, crying and crying.

    Kim Hae-il turned the spear he was holding back to its original state and returned to me.

    “How long do you think it will take?”

    “I’m not sure because it’s my first time, but I didn’t hit him too lightly.”

    There was not a single trace of blood around Sim So-young, who was woken up by the survivors by violently shaking her.

    Haeil Kim acted at my request from the beginning to stun her.

    I smiled as I looked at Shim So-young, who had lost consciousness and fell to the floor.

    I will definitely take it from you.

    This is a board created for that purpose.

    The act of creating a common enemy by calling them by the derogatory term ‘tess’.

    A form in which one person controls and decides everything.

    Something feels familiar.

    I said, looking down at the Marine Hotel survivors.

    “I think I was overextended. I apologize to you for that. Still, the awakened ones have strong bodies, so they will probably wake up soon.”

    What should I call this?

    A community that only women can join?

    Or a pseudo-religion?

    So, is the name something like Estrogenism?

    I smiled as I saw them looking up at me with eyes full of fear.

    “So. Where should we stay?”

    I will tell you the real pseudo.
