Their method was simple.

In the beginning, they had people who needed drugs make drugs under the pretense of giving them drugs.

And after they had enough drugs, they addicted people to drugs and treated them like slaves.

Medicine and drugs.

Using these two things, they treated people like slaves, and by the middle of the original work, they had become one huge organization.

Of course, that can’t be done anymore.

But I had a question.

“How do you make drugs?”

“That guy.”

A man wearing a gas mask pointed at one of the dead men.

… I don’t know who exactly he was pointing at because everyone was cut in half and left to die.

But at least it seemed like there was no need to worry.

“…Now then, let’s each take care of our own things. Because the medicine seems to be enough.”

When I said that, the frozen people began to move little by little.

I guess it’s inevitable that people look at me every time I move.

I approached Eunjeong.

“Are you okay?”

“It’s okay.”

It didn’t seem like a lie.

It’s true that I was surprised at the time, but it seemed like I recovered quickly.

As expected, the main character’s party is different.

Despite facing such a cruel scene, he appeared calm.

“…was.”

“Huh?”

Eunjeong said something, but I couldn’t hear it, so I listened.

Then Eun-jeong lowered her head and spoke bluntly, but pronouncing each letter correctly.

“…It was cool.”

“…”

I looked at Eunjeong.

I think it was a blunt tone to hide his embarrassment.

Her face was red and her gaze was directed to the floor, but her feelings were conveyed clearly.

“Really? Was it that cool?”

“Irritating…”

I repeated her words in a teasing way.

Eunjeong shyly tapped my shoulder with her fist and started putting medicine into the bag she had brought with her.

I looked at the back with satisfaction and took the medicine.

In the case of medicine, it mainly contains medicines that are worth taking with you in advance.

Representative examples include painkillers, cold medicines, digestives, bandages, and anti-inflammatory drugs.

In addition, I also brought things like ointment and rubbing alcohol.

Now that there are no doctors, these medicines are quite important.

Even I, who has heels, felt the same way.

Although it was clear that it could treat trauma, it was not clear whether it could also treat diseases.

[The message is currently being blocked.]

“Ah.”

I only remembered it after I took everything I could.

Before entering the pharmacy, I received so many useless messages that I blocked them for a while.

When I unblocked the messages, messages from constellations poured in like a waterfall.

[The Goddess of Justice proposes to become his own incarnation.]

[The master of the sword proposes to become his own incarnation.]

[I propose that the conquering king become his own incarnation.]

[…]

It was a huge message.

Although they were all different constellations, they all said the same thing.

‘Be my incarnation.’

And among these, there were some unexpected constellations.

The Master of the Sword and the King of Conquerors, who would only be mentioned in the middle or latter part of the story, were good examples.

However, I already had two options that I had been considering from the moment I entered this world.

‘The King of the Dwarves and the Goddess of Justice.’

What the two have in common is that they are both constellations that appear from the beginning, and both grant the blessings of the Great Manifestation.

The king of the dwarves granted him the blessing of increasing his physical abilities every time he hunted an enemy larger than himself.

The protection given by the Goddess of Justice was a protection that grew stronger each time a wicked person was defeated.

The king of the dwarves first offered me to become his avatar, but there was a reason I hesitated.

‘I’m too big.’

Although it was small compared to monsters, there were only a few worldviews in the quest world where monsters could appear.

In most worlds, you will deal with humans.

In that case, it seemed difficult to utilize the divine protection properly.

In contrast, the wicked

Well, it was overflowing everywhere.

It was so intertwined with me that I wondered why on earth it was intertwined like this.

So I finally decided.

I decided to choose the goddess of justice.

[The Goddess of Justice smiles brightly.]

[The Goddess of Justice will give her protection, so let’s eradicate all evil.]

[Acquire the skill Implementation of Justice.]

“Why are you standing blankly?”

“Huh? No, shall we go?”

In fact, no decision has been made on where to go afterward.

However, now that I’ve come this far, I decided to look around and take care of something else.

In fact, even though they are medicines, they are not very heavy and do not take up a lot of space.

In the downtown area, vehicles and various items were lying on the ground.

The streets that were once full of people are now empty.

Although I had experienced it in other worlds, it was a sight I could hardly get used to.

As expected, we were the only ones walking leisurely through this downtown area.

Sometimes monsters would pop out to keep us in check.

Of course, I finished it right away.

“…”

As I was walking down the street, I looked at Eunjeong, who had become quiet, and her gaze stopped at a clothing store of a brand.

It was an expensive luxury brand that would have been very popular before this incident.

Now, it has become a place no one visits.

“Shall we go in?”

“Is that so?”

Was he interested?

As soon as Eunjeong heard my hint, she turned around and went inside the store.

If you really wanted to go in, just say you want to go in first.

I chuckled and followed behind him.

“Wow…”

Eun-jeong entered the store and looked inside the store with admiration.

“Oh…”

As soon as I entered, I was also impressed.

The luxuriously decorated interior created a completely different atmosphere from an ordinary clothing store.

When we went inside and turned on the lights, the atmosphere was further enhanced.

It seemed like the numerous lights on the ceiling were not decoration.

When soft lighting illuminated the mannequins, bags, and clothes on display, everything it touched became twice as luxurious.

What can I say?

It was a great lighting.

My admiration did not end there.

“Eleven million, one hundred thousand… one million…?”

When I read the price tag for one coat, my eyes widened in disbelief.

Now that I have quite a bit of money, I was confident that I would not waste much on what I wear or eat.

Looking at this price tag, it was outrageous.

No, it’s definitely pretty.

It’s pretty, but is it tidy?

“… Oppa.”

“Huh?”

While I was distracted by the price tag, Eun-jeong was holding an outfit in each hand, as if she had found something she liked.

It’s also a very similar outfit.

“Which one is prettier?”

“Ummㅡ”

It was difficult.

They both had hoodies.

The only thing that was different was the brand’s unique pattern in the middle.

“So…”

I looked into space.

[The Goddess of Justice says she prefers things without patterns.]

It was a precious vote.

First of all, my constellation is also a goddess.

Wouldn’t the perspectives on women’s clothes overlap?

When I chose a simple coat without a pattern, Eunjeong smiled brightly.

“Ah! I thought this was pretty too!”

Ah, it was a question with a correct answer.

I thought you were asking for my opinion again.

I sighed and felt relieved that I had chosen the correct answer.

Honestly, if it were me, I would have chosen the one with a pattern.

Even though it’s such an expensive outfit, you probably want to make it look appealing.

“I’m going to change my clothes.”

She took the hoodie I had chosen for her and entered the dressing room.

It was a fairly light step.

Come to think of it, Eunjeong looked bright all day today, except when she was at the pharmacy.

And it was different from what I thought.

Swoosh…swoosh.

I heard the sound of clothes being taken off.

I asked a question carefully in front of the locker room.

“…Aren’t you anxious?”

“What is it?”

“That you and I are alone together, or that those two people are alone together.”

“…”

Eunjeong’s voice from the locker room became quieter.

This may certainly be a bit of a mischievous question.

However, I couldn’t contain my curiosity.

Grumble.

The locker room door was wide open.

She had already quickly changed her clothes.

All I had to do was take off my top and put it on.

“Sure.”

“Huh?”

“Why am I not anxious?”

Eun-jeong thought it was strange and was troubled.

Then I came to a conclusion.

“Don’t I trust you and Jaehoon that much?”

“Me?”

“Sure.”

Before I knew it, my image, which had been at the bottom, seemed to have risen to Jaehoon’s level.

I glanced at Eunjeong who came out of the locker room.

‘ah. ‘That’s why.’

I thought I knew why luxury clothes were expensive.

Even though it didn’t boast a flashy pattern, it was different somehow.

Maybe it’s just a good model.

“It’s pretty.”

“Suddenly?”

When I expressed my feelings plainly, Eun-jeong covered her mouth and laughed out loud.

Although he covered his mouth with both hands, the gently curved corners of his mouth were still visible.

Is there anyone who doesn’t like praise, but among them, Eunjeong seemed to be the type who especially wanted to be praised.

It was even written on the castle wall.

I don’t know if my compliment worked, or if she just liked the clothes, but Eun-jeong put them on and headed home.

Naturally, bringing medicine became a base for Jae-hoon and Eun-jeong.

“Not there yet, those two.”

“Sure.”

Since we had already finished shopping, I thought the two of us would arrive first.

It was a little late considering that the shopping mall was not far from the base.

There may be more monsters than you think, or there may be a lot to move around.

“Let’s wait a moment.”

Eunjeong said that and sat down on the bed.

Since it was a villa with no place to sit, such as a sofa or chair, I naturally sat down next to him.

Then, the bed naturally bent under my weight and Eunjeong slid next to me.

Eunjeong naturally came into my arms.

“Uh.”

“Ah…Ahaha…”

As we laughed at each other at the absurd situation, we gradually became quieter.

In awkward silence for no reason.

Eunjeong did not adjust her posture.

He just looked up at me from my embrace.
