Chapter Index

    Surprisingly, Choi Harang did not resist.

    Rather, he just looked at the night sea with a relaxed expression, as if he had hoped for this.

    If the speed had increased, that margin would have disappeared, but that didn’t happen.

    The speed at which Su-hyeon and Kang-shin were running also had to be taken into consideration.

    The endurance wasn’t bad, but the speed at which both could be maintained was quite low.

    It was very different from me, who could march several times faster if I could.

    “You’re on the right track, right?”

    “Yes. There are no barricades here, so keep going.”

    “Okay, let’s keep going!”

    It was truly a breeze.

    They had no idea that someone would run away in the middle of the night, and their security was so lax that it was almost non-existent.

    Considering Choi Harang was standing guard, it was clear that the guard was probably concentrated on the outskirts.

    Well, it was worth it. Only about three months have passed since the outbreak of the incident.

    Unless something special happens, the sea will serve as a strong barrier for the time being.

    I felt quite lucky.

    Honestly, I thought there would be at least one battle along the way.

    However, no zombies appeared until we arrived at Songdo Beach.

    If I continued like this, I thought I would be able to reach campus before the sun rose.

    “From now on, I will slow down for safety.”

    “What about vigilance against zombies…? ?”

    “No need to worry, there is a General’s discharge sac.”

    “Of course, a monster… ”

    “Monster… ”

    I ignored Su-hyeon and Kang-shin’s words.

    Anyway, I was glad I didn’t lose the General’s bag of secretions.

    I didn’t know if he thought it wasn’t necessary to take care of it, or if he judged it to be dangerous.

    Everything was thoroughly washed and placed in the pocket of the nun’s robe.

    Now that I have it between my cleavages, there is absolutely no way I can lose it.

    As it was a convenient item, I didn’t want to lose it.

    “Oh my gosh.”

    I sighed deeply.

    I thought Seocho-gu would be okay, but it seems things aren’t so good here either.

    Zombies, although fewer than those seen in the West, are still annoying, and they are starting to appear.

    Fortunately, most of them were types that Su-hyeon and Kang-shin could handle.

    So, I looked at the situation and acted by only attacking variants that seemed to be dangerous.

    Since I needed someone to protect Choi Harang, I had no choice.

    Fortunately, it didn’t seem like there would be much of a problem.

    No matter how much the schedule was delayed, it was clear that we would be able to arrive before sunrise.

    And that premonition was correct.

    As the sun began to rise, people were seen drawing water from the Nakdong River.

    I dragged the red soil and ran towards the people, and as expected, I was warned.

    Honestly, I was very embarrassed.

    Since they were campus people, I thought they would welcome me unconditionally.

    Then I quickly realized that this was caused by a misunderstanding.

    Seonghwa Kang grumbled as he came up carrying water purifier water bottles one by one on his shoulders.

    “If you come dressed like a nun, will the kids welcome you?”

    “Well, what is it? Was there a battle?”

    “If someone you know joined a cult and was kidnapped, there is no way you would look kindly on those people.”

    “Aha, me again. I thought there was some kind of problem.”

    “By the way, Yeji.”

    “Huh?”

    “Siwoo seems very angry. Are you okay?”

    “… ?”

    I suddenly started getting scared.

    No, I also thought that this guy was really misunderstanding.

    To be honest, I wanted to run away right away, but I knew that if I got caught while running, I would be in an even worse situation.

    Then, after he managed to come to his senses, he explained about the people behind him.

    But I wasn’t even sure if I was explaining it properly.

    Then, when I came to my senses, we were all going up to campus together.

    Even in the midst of embarrassment, seeing him holding a water purifier bottle in each hand made me think he must have gotten used to working.

    The feeling of being headed to the execution ground continued.

    When I got to the campus entrance, I really thought I was going to die.

    I was wondering if Kang Si-woo might suddenly barge in and brandish a knife.

    Fortunately, what I thought didn’t happen.

    Instead, other people who knew me showed up and asked how I was doing.

    The first thing Kim Yeon-hwa’s father did was run over to me and asked if I was okay, then got scared.

    Not only did I have bruises and injuries here and there, but my stomach was covered in blood.

    Kim Yeon-hwa’s father stammered.

    “Don’t you need to go to the infirmary for this??”

    “No, it’s okay. I’m all better. Look.”

    I put down the water bottle and lifted up my nun robe.

    And the boat was swept down.

    The wound had already healed, so only dried blood was visible.

    I slowly took off my clothes and looked around.

    It seemed like everyone was looking away in confusion, but it was understandable.

    You probably think you’ve been hurt a lot.

    “Now that I think about it, it’s strange. Hey, Seonghwa. Why didn’t you worry about me?”

    “Even if you get hit anyway, you won’t fall behind, right?”

    “I’m not searching, but that’s a bit much to say?”

    “If you don’t pay attention, you’ll just go up.”

    “Huh? I? Why?”

    I didn’t know what it meant, but I nodded that I understood.

    After handing over each water purifier water bottle to Su-hyeon and Kang-shin, they dragged Jeokto up to the campus.

    Meanwhile, Kim Ki-jun was seen running up the stairs to report.

    I was relieved. Kim Ki-jun and Kim Dae-han were capable adjutants, so Kang Si-woo did not easily ignore their words.

    Since there was no evidence that I betrayed him, I thought he would explain it properly and clear up any misunderstandings.

    So, they set up a box near the dormitory and released the half-corpse Choi Harang.

    “Here… campus… ”

    “Quite disciplined.”

    “Eup-eup.”

    Choi Harang looked at us with cold eyes.

    I was able to roughly guess the content.

    I was wondering if I needed to wear a gag since I had come this far.

    So, I removed Choi Harang’s gag.

    Choi Ha-rang took a slow deep breath and spoke.

    “If I had known this would happen, I would have cooperated a long time ago.”

    “Huh?”

    “Anyway, my brother was also tired of that pseudo-den. So I tried to send it in moderation.”

    “What, shouldn’t you have told me earlier?”

    “You could have failed. So I tried to tell you, but I didn’t even care.”

    Choi Harang continued to grumble, but then closed his mouth.

    Su-hyeon and Kang-shin also kept their mouths shut.

    I looked blankly in the direction they were looking.

    Kang Si-woo was slowly walking this way.

    But it wasn’t just walking. He looked very angry.

    And then he immediately grabbed my wrist.

    “… Ouch!”

    “… Let’s talk for a moment in a quiet place.”

    “Well, those people… ?”

    “ Mr. Ki-jun and Mr. Dae-han will take care of it.”

    “It hurts!”

    The current Kang Si-woo didn’t seem to care about face.

    Plus, he was pulling my arm so hard that I felt it hurt.

    I had no choice but to be led by Kang Si-woo into a nearby warehouse.

    Kang Si-woo slowly pushed me against the wall.

    I was extremely scared.

    I thought I was going to die here.

    Kang Si-woo slowly checked my body.

    It was as if he was looking for something that shouldn’t be there.

    Finally, Kang Si-woo lifted up the nun’s robe and finally sighed.

    Meanwhile, I was reflexively offering my apology.

    To be honest, it was a situation where I had no choice but to be scared.

    “You’re welcome. It looks like you weren’t shot, Mr. Yeji.”

    “… yes? Did I get hit by all those guns?”

    “… Now, I didn’t know you could withstand a bullet. Do you know how worried I am?”

    “Could you please speak more normally next time?”

    My legs became weak and I slowly sat down.

    It’s not really a joke. I thought I was going to die here.

    But Kang Si-woo shook his head resolutely.

    “If the only regressor other than me dies, who will I understand?”

    “Ah.”

    “Unlike those pseudo forces, you are a true regressor.”

    I thought things were quite messed up.

    It was clear that we had become attached to each other knowingly or unknowingly.

    This was Kang Si-woo’s attitude towards Choi Kang-hyuk.

    Kang Si-woo’s mental support, who will probably join here with his two younger sisters in a little while.

    Kang Si-woo sighed deeply and continued.

    “I heard everything from Mr. Changhoon. Yeji returned much later and remembers everything that happened.”

    “… ?”

    Did this fucking bastard decide to run after me?

    It really felt like the seeds of betrayal were blooming in my heart.

    I could understand why he said that.

    As a writer, you have to spit out information, but you can’t just spit it out, so you said you heard it from me.

    At the same time, it seemed like he was planning to keep the attention focused on me and remain a bit of a bystander.

    “And, congratulations on your marriage.”

    I couldn’t stand it here.

    I wanted to go see Noh Chang-hoon right away and hit him in the face with a baton.

    what? Who gets to marry who they want?

    However, he could not damage the image he had built in front of Kang Si-woo.

    So after I said I understood, I smiled slowly.

    And asked a question.

    “How long have you known Changhoon?”

    “I found out right after Yeji was kidnapped. We had a lot in common.”

    “Aha, it’s amazing.”

    “By having Yeji in common, we were able to understand each other’s difficulties.”

    “Is that an insult?”

    “Interpret however you want.”

    “So, Mr. Siwoo.”

    “Yes?”

    “Noh Chang-hoon, where is that bastard?”

    I opened the warehouse door, turned the lock, and said,

    I didn’t think there was anything to talk about now anyway.

    So now was the time for retribution.

    “He came with me. I think it’s probably nearby… ”

    Kang Si-woo, who realized that something was going strangely, made an expression asking what he was doing.

    I got out of the warehouse and closed the door.

    In an instant, a clanking sound was heard from inside.

    It was obvious that Kang Si-woo would soon realize that the lock was locked and come out anyway.

    But it didn’t matter. I locked the door to buy those few seconds.

    “You bastard!!”

    At that moment, Noh Chang-hoon was holding back laughter nearby.

    I couldn’t hold back and just threw a dropkick.
