    See (6) – One Mind Salvation Church Paradise

    [This is our salvation.]

    Han Gu-won’s face shown in the neutral power ‘broadcast’.

    The believers who heard that benevolent voice were looking at the broadcast with a different expression than usual.

    A square in paradise where believers of the Salvation Church gathered on happy days.

    The believers crowded there had anxious faces and their hands were shaking.

    “Sisters, please gather here, brothers, please gather here! Elderly believers or brothers who are responsible for believers who need protection, please gather together where sisters gather!”

    Whispering – Paladins shouting at the top of their voices in a plaza filled with fear and anxiety.

    Takkak! Takkak!

    Paladins riding huge white horses were busily going somewhere with the sound of horses’ hooves.

    Kang San looked at the dark sky beyond the shield and hurriedly followed someone.

    “Does it make sense to not know where it went?!”

    “What can I do when I really don’t know! According to the returning paladins – Come to think of it, why should I tell this to my brother!”

    Kang Bada, who was busy checking something, made eye contact with her brother with an irritated face.

    “Why did you come here too? And why do you come all of a sudden and look for the assistant pontiff! You didn’t say anything about why you only came with old man!”

    “… … .”

    In response to his sister’s question, Kang San grabbed his forehead with a trembling hand and squinted.

    I couldn’t afford to argue with her like this right now.

    “… … Hello, bro.”

    A voice heard very quietly in the cold silence.

    Kang San looked down at Kang Jin-woo, who was tightly holding Kang Bada’s hand.

    “Ah… … Jinwoo.”

    A face I miss seeing after such a long time.

    Kang San, who was trying to smile slightly at him, suddenly hardened his expression and got down on one knee.

    Kang San made eye contact with Kang Jin-woo, who was holding Kang Bada’s hand in a very withdrawn manner, and asked carefully.

    “… … Jinwoo, can you hear me?”

    Although it was a question with many words, it was a very familiar question to him and Kang Jin-woo.

    “… … No.”

    Kang Jin-woo quietly lowers his head.

    “… … That makes me even more scared. This is the first time I can’t hear anything.”

    Jinwoo Kang’s long answer, which is not common.

    The answer seemed to indirectly show how serious the current situation was.

    “… … I see Thank you, Jinwoo.”

    Kang San, who gently stroked Kang Jin-woo’s head, caught a glimpse of the old man who was quietly looking at them.

    The old man is looking around the square without saying a word.

    “This payment is made in preparation for unexpected situations, so you don’t have to be too anxious! Since live ammunition is already loaded, please never release the stabilizer!”

    Male believers were being issued firearms in a row.

    The believers continue to swallow their saliva and hold their guns.

    “Weapon provision completed. Afterwards – the elderly and children were transported to the sanctuary… … ”

    The river sea checks the checklist in a quiet whisper.

    “No!”

    Kang San shouted loudly without realizing it.

    Kang Bada, who was looking at the checklist, raised her head to Kang San’s shout.

    Kang San looked at her and shook his head.

    “The danger is the same whether there or here. There is a higher chance of survival if we stick together here, in this wide space!”

    “… … I guess you forgot, but no one is allowed into the Sanctuary and Paradise. The leader’s—”

    “So—!”

    Kang San did not listen to the answer from Kang Bada and shouted louder.

    “So- it’s dangerous.”

    “… … .”

    Kang Bada quietly closed her mouth and glared at Kang San, but her eyes narrowed further.

    Togak- Togak-

    With the sound of high heels, Kang Bada covered the checklist and whispered with confident eyes.

    “You know where the leader is.”

    “… … .”

    “Oppa- I don’t have time to fight with my emotions like this right now. The situation is really strange right now. And the only person who can solve this strange situation is the leader.”

    “… … .”

    “Oppa knows too. Why aren’t you answering?! Where is the religious leader?”

    Kang San had no choice but to ignore Kang Bada’s earnest eyes.

    “Why do you keep averting your eyes?! … … No?”

    In the end, Kang Bada’s question seemed to be imagining the worst.

    “… … Oppa, isn’t it?”

    Parr – Kangsan quietly answered the trembling question of Kangbada.

    “That’s not important right now, it’s the sea.”

    “There is nothing more important than that! Oppa- What did you really do-”

    “Why isn’t there anything more important than that?!”

    A strong hand firmly grasps Kang Bada’s wrist.

    Kang San said, suppressing his trembling voice.

    “… … you. Sea, you have to live no matter what happens.”

    Kang San continued to stare alternately at the train platform and the face of the river and sea.

    No matter how strong the lord of the castle is or how strong that strange man is, he cannot ignore the neutral authority.

    The only way to keep my precious sister safe was to get her on the train.

    “Once you get on the train-”

    Ahhh!

    The conversation he was continuing was naturally cut off by his younger sister, who was frowning at his strong touch.

    The sound of a child crying interrupted him.

    Haaa!

    As if reacting to the cries, the young children in the square burst into tears one after another.

    Suddenly, the cries of children echoed throughout the square.

    “On the train―”

    Kang San’s pupils were shaking violently as he looked at the children shedding tears.

    “On the train―”

    Kang San’s lips keep repeating the same words like a broken tape recorder.

    Haaa!

    Young children were especially sensitive to the facial expressions of adults.

    An expression so unfamiliar to children who always laughed at the happy laughter of adults.

    Young children, unable to overcome their anxiety and fear, look at the adults who have remained on their faces and express their transferred emotions.

    Kang San could not finish his sentence as he looked at all the people in the square shedding tears without any guilt.

    “… … On the train.”

    “Aaagh—!”

    At that moment, Kang Jin-woo lets go of the hand he was holding with Kang Bada and falls to the floor.

    “Jinwoo—!”

    The surprised child continued to cover his ears with both hands, regardless of whether the river or sea supported him.

    “Aaaagh―!”

    A face grimacing in pain and small legs fluttering back and forth as if struggling.

    “Why are you acting like this all of a sudden, Jinwoo?!”

    “Noona! You have to run away! Run away- ahhh!”

    Kang San turned his head as if he sensed a certain moment.

    “Zombies are talking―Zombies keep repeating the same words―”

    Sooo!

    At that moment, the train arrives at the paradise train platform.

    All the believers who looked at the train opened their eyes wide and screamed as if they were torn apart.

    “Aaaagh―!”

    The sound stalkers crowded around the train howled as if responding to the screams.

    Kkkk!

    “… … Opened.”

    ***

    Drops of sweat flowing down like rain from the continuous running.

    The sweat droplets were dried again without being able to flow due to the strong wind.

    Seong Ga-eul couldn’t do anything about her office outfit, which was already drenched in sweat, and continued running to the next dungeon.

    The attempts continued to the point where I couldn’t even remember how many dungeons I had entered.

    Her high heels, which were already uncomfortable for running, were swinging in her hands.

    The next cave we arrived at.

    “… … .”

    The way he desperately held back his violent breathing was similar to holding back hiccups.

    Cooo! Cuuu!

    While Seo Tae-san was attracting the attention of all the zombies from afar, we had to find Han Gu-won’s whereabouts as quickly as possible for a second.

    Seong Ga-eul held back the snort that constantly tickled her lips and stared at the cave that was only revealing its dark inner thoughts.

    Excited – Excited –

    My heart is already beating as if it’s going to explode, to the point where I’m confused as to whether it’s the realm of intuition or survival.

    Keekeeek!

    Seong Ga-eul hurriedly took a step into the cave, as if avoiding the howling that was still clearly resonating.

    Tiring—!

    [We are searching for adventurers trying to enter the dungeon!]

    [The Hell difficulty clear record holder cannot be confirmed!]

    [To enter the Hell difficulty dungeon, you must have cleared the Hard difficulty dungeon 15 times!]

    [You cannot enter the World Hell Dungeon ‘World Cinema’.]

    Excited – Excited – Excited –

    It’s a message I’ve seen so many times, but it makes my heart beat harder.

    It’s here.

    There is no evidence or clues, but Han Gu-won is here.

    “Danzaaaang—!”

    A sharp, high-pitched sound aimed at the leader who is alone in blocking the zombie wavy.

    Seong Ga-eul called Seo Tae-san and read the unfinished system message.

    Tiring—!

    [It has been confirmed that the audience is suitable for the theme currently underway at ‘World Cinema’!]

    [Permissible range: Same affiliation as theme performer]

    [The ‘Awakened Seong Ga-eul’ belonging to the ‘One Mind Salvation Church’ is permitted to enter.]

    A system message flowing out as if to let her know that her intuition was correct.

    As soon as she reached the end of the message, everything in her vision suddenly changed.

    In an instant, everything around me that was once dark changed into a somewhat familiar background.

    “… … .”

    Faint lights flash in Seong Ga-eul’s eyes as she quietly opens her mouth and looks around.

    The movie theater multiplex was in front of her.

    [You have entered ‘World Cinema’!]

    thud-!

    A heavy noise echoed from the seat next to Seong Ga-eul, who was slowly walking forward.

    My eyes met with Seo Taesan, whose entire body was covered in blood.

    “… … are you okay. Leader?”

    “Yes.”

    In response to Seong Ga-eul’s question, Seo Tae-san silently nods his head with a steaming face.

    Seong Ga-eul nodded as if responding to the leader’s still stern look.

    “Good. Now that we have found out where the leader is, let’s bring him back quickly.”

    One of the messages that was updated when entering the dungeon.

    I don’t know exactly what an audience suitable for the ongoing theme means.

    But it’s much better than just standing still and shaking your feet.

    Seong Ga-eul hurried across the multiplex, still holding her high heels in both hands.

    I passed by the smell of movie theater popcorn, which I hadn’t smelled in a long time, and quickly walked toward a place that looked suspicious at first glance.

    Usually, due to the structure of a movie theater, the box office and screening theater cannot coexist.

    Most movie theaters place the theaters starting from the upper floor of the floor where the ticket office and concession stand are located.

    However, this suspicious movie theater called ‘World Cinema’ was very openly showing a large theater next to the concession stand.

    ‘Hanguwongwan’

    As if to tell me to come in quickly.

    chin-!

    The heavy texture you feel as soon as you hold the wooden doorknob.

    Seong Ga-eul opened the door to this suspicious ‘Hanguwon Hall’ without hesitation.

    Good!

    A noise echoing through the otherwise silent multiplex.

    [Fucked.]

    And another noise came through the open door.

    Seong Ga-eul quietly looked around the ‘Hangoowon Hall’, which was no different from an ordinary movie theater.

    Seats identified by alphabet and short stairs leading to each floor.

    And the large screen that was supposed to be in the theater was filled with familiar faces.

    [Why are you doing this again, bro?]

    In a room where mechanical keyboards and mouse clicks sound loudly.

    [I can hear a girl’s voice in the voiceover?]

    [huh? Why is that?]

    [Holy shoot! If we lose this too, it will be our 4th loss in a row! Why are you attacking our team and not the enemy team?]

    [Hak Hak Hak! Brother, be careful. Are you really getting into trouble by saying things like that these days?]

    [Shut up, you fucking bastard! It’s sadder that my score is going to goal now than me going to goal!]

    [Hak-hak-hak-!]

    ‘Hangoo Won-gwan’, the voice I was looking for and heard clearly.

    Seong Ga-eul shouted at Seo Tae-san, who was quickly approaching.

    “… … Outside!”

    Seo Taesan quietly stops walking.

    Parr – Seong Ga-eul, with trembling eyes, barely managed to utter a word with her quivering lips.

    “Wait a minute… … outside… … .”

    Seo Taesan silently nodded even though the sentence could not be continued to the end.

    Kkeigikk- chin-!

    Seong Ga-eul hurriedly closed the door to the theater, leaving behind Seotaesan, who had stood still.

    In ‘Hanguwon Hall’, which is soaked in darkness, the only source of light is the screen.

    [Oh, I suddenly really want to have sex, fuck.]

    [Hak Hak Hak! After saying that, all of a sudden?!]

    [Ah~ I want to have sex!]

    [Hak Hak Hak! Hey, I’m hitting you hard, I’m hitting you hard.]

    dump-!

    Seong Ga-eul sank down in her seat, looking at Han Gu-won, who was engrossed in the game while wearing a headset.

    The tension that had been holding her tight until now was released in an instant, and she was unable to control her entire body.

    I found Han Gu-won.

    but-

    Han Gu-won-

    The Han Gu-won she was looking for.

    [Unprofitable Lv.20 (Locked)]

    wasn’t here

    Look.

    END.
