“Oh, what is it!?”

I thought I was lying down looking at the ceiling, but it turns out I wasn’t.

When I came to, I must have been sleeping for several hours and the sun was rising outside the window.

It was clear that I must have slept for more than 10 hours.

When my thoughts reached that point, I hurriedly got up.

I didn’t have much time, but I couldn’t waste it.

I almost fell a few times, but it was like I just woke up.

I could tell just by looking at the fact that there was no dizziness or anything like that.

“Oh, really.”

I was so busy with so much work to do, but in the meantime, I was so hungry that I was annoyed.

I know that regeneration requires a lot of calories, but it’s a bit annoying in this situation.

Still, I couldn’t help it, so I put on my shoes and went outside and looked around.

Since it was already like this, I was planning to ask for food and ask what happened while he was asleep.

And Abdul Ali was on my radar.

Abdul Ali answered my questions faithfully.

Nothing happened while I was asleep, and there was no urgent need to call.

On the contrary, he seemed really tired, so I let him sleep soundly, and he said he would prepare dinner soon.

That’s it, but when I asked about the most important saints and ideals, I got a strange answer.

Ahn Hae-jin left for Busan.

“Why is he going to Busan!?”

“I don’t know.”

“… Ugh, how many hours has it been since we left?”

“I don’t know.”

Where is “!”

“Hey.”

I huffed and ran to where the problem was.

To be honest, Ahn Hae-jin was in no condition to move.

How hard did I hit it?

I know because he was the one who hit me. It would be barely possible to move around.

Even though I ate well and rested well at the industrial complex, it only lasted a few days.

It would be amazing if everything could be recovered.

Even I, who has considerable regenerative ability, was unable to open my eyes for several days.

Given the circumstances, Ahn Hae-jin could not have slept well because she was busy taking care of other saints.

So, it’s safe to say that his physical condition is lower than mine.

I couldn’t ask a kid like that to go to Busan.

Fortunately, I was able to find the ideal soon after.

Lee Sang was serving food to people, and it seemed like it was morning.

I reflexively looked at the menu, then came to my senses and spoke to Lee Sang.

“How long has it been since we left?”

“About one to two hours at most.”

“… Do you think you can follow along? No, more than that. Why did you send him away!”

“Because I have no one else to send it to. You are so sleepy, other people don’t know geography.”

“… What happened to the other saints?”

“Everyone is sleeping. And I plan to protect this place.”

“… ”

I knew that there was nothing I could do about it.

At first glance, it may seem a bit weird, but he is also the head of a faction.

Of course, you had to take care of your own forces and people first.

Rationally, I would not have sent Ahn Hae-jin, but as the leader, I had no choice but to send him.

“… Does he have anything like this?”

I said as I pulled out the bags of discharge from my cleavage.

Lee Sang made an expression as if asking why he was carrying it between his breasts.

The expression on his face made me wonder if this guy had lost his mind, so I hastily added an explanation.

“It’s like a talisman that chases away weak zombies but not mutants.”

“Did you get it from a variant?”

“It’s called general. Anyway, is there anything that plays this role?”

“No, I just said there was a way to chase them.”

“… Makes people anxious.”

I put the bag between my chest again and scratched my head.

It was because I couldn’t feel at ease after sending Ahn Hae-jin away.

My body won’t thrive, and there’s no way to chase it like I do.

It was clear that he had probably decided to rent a bicycle and go to Busan.

Since I traveled around the area on my bike, he probably wants to do the same.

“Still, the paths for bicycles are limited… Do you think you can follow along?”

“… What?”

“Bicycle. I guess you can reach the speed of a car now, right?”

“No, not that one. He walked away.”

“… ?”

Ahn Hae-jin seemed to have a weirder head than I thought.

No, yes. Is there really a way to go to Busan and come back?

They might want to go to Busan and ask for help or do anything.

But if that’s the case, isn’t it usually first to find a means of transportation?

I really felt like he was more reckless than me.

I stood there blankly for a moment, and then spat out the sentence in bewilderment.

“Crazy bitch… Did you really think you could walk to Busan?”

“I don’t know.”

“And what are you going to do when you get to Busan? He can persuade people!?”

“… Since our situation is not good, I think I just went on my own.”

“… Oh.”

I don’t know what he was thinking, but it seemed like he was moving with a feeling of atonement.

Since Lee Sang must have talked with the saints yesterday, he would have learned about the situation here in the process.

After hearing the conclusion that he needed to have reinforcements at all costs, he seemed to have tried to bring people in even if he had to die.

The problem was that I was there now.

I have already traveled back and forth from Jinju to Busan via the highway three times.

I didn’t encounter any zombies while driving on the highway.

Above all, once we arrived in Busan, we could unconditionally call in reinforcements.

If you explain in detail how it happened, at least Kang Si-woo will come.

They will come and talk with the industrial complex and the Hamodan to open a path in a beneficial direction.

Anyway, the point was this.

“You could just leave it to me or go with me, but why are you going alone? ”

“I stopped him several times.”

“Are you my sister-in-law!? Or wake me up.”

“When I called his name, he immediately started swinging his fist, so I gave up.”

“… ”

“I thought he was awake because he was standing, but that wasn’t the case. Do you know how embarrassed I was?”

“… Just give me some food.”

“Why. Are you hungry?”

“They tell me to eat and go to Busan, why!”

I covered my face with both hands.

I didn’t know that sleepwalking would get in my way here.

If it weren’t for that, I would have woken up earlier, had breakfast with Ahn Hae-jin, and set off.

If she also rode a bicycle, she wouldn’t be left behind or anything like that.

Anyway, thinking that I would have to cure my sleepwalking someday, I received a reward prepared by Lee Sang himself.

The rice was more than the amount of rice served by the workers, and the side dishes they gave us were more than double what other people would eat.

I couldn’t bear to leave the canned goods and other things I had collected in front of me, too.

I had no intention of leaving it anyway.

While I was eating, Lee Sang continued to feed me rice, as if he was getting a little tired of it.

It was a bonus to be told that with that level of ability, it would be understandable for him to eat this much.

Thanks to this, I was able to eat as much as I needed and go get ready.

Preparation didn’t take long.

Since Ochu already had everything necessary for survival, all I had to do was bring a weapon.

So, I hung the Cheonmachong and Buddhist baton on my waist so they wouldn’t fall off, and stepped on the pedals.

Lee Sang personally came out to meet me and said,

“Originally, I would have stopped them both, but the situation is really bad so there is nothing I can do.”

“I had a rough guess, so there’s no need to blame yourself too much.”

“Well, I will.”

Even though I said that, it was clear that I felt burdened.

I took a moment to think of something to say that would ease the burden.

I felt like no matter what I said, it would be of no use.

So I just pedaled and took off.

Since I had already traveled back and forth several times, there was no need to hesitate once I found a familiar path.

All I had to do was speed up and pedal.

There were no zombies in the middle, and I had roughly memorized the route by now.

However, he did not neglect his surroundings.

Now that things were like this, I had to take Ahn Hae-jin with me.

Since I didn’t know when and where she was fighting, I needed to keep both eyes open and look around.

Fortunately, after pedaling for a few hours and driving along the road, I was able to find Ahn Hae-jin.

Ahn Hae-jin was fighting zombies.

There were at least a hundred zombies surrounding her, so it was clear that she had come at the right time.

I slowly pulled out the Heavenly Horse Gun from my waist, stepped on the pedal, and swung the sword.

The zombies on the outskirts noticed me late, but I had already cut down five or six with one swing of my sword.

I immediately got off the Ochu and took out my baton.

Ahn Hae-jin swung his red whip to melt the zombies, then looked at me and made a dumbfounded expression.

Then, as if he came to his senses, he hurriedly threw out his fist and smashed the zombie’s head.

I literally slaughtered the zombies that were running at me without fear.

With just a simple swing of the Heavenly Horse Gun, the body of quite a few zombies could be split in half.

When the baton was swung, the body exploded or the head flew into the air.

Unless it was a stronger variant, these weak variants or regular zombies couldn’t deal with me.

Soon after, the zombies began to run away.

Ahn Hae-jin was happy to see it, but his expression turned pale as he realized the meaning later.

Since I knew what the situation was, I couldn’t just laugh.

This meant that there was a variant with high intelligence enough to force those zombies to retreat.
