First, I needed to deal with the incessantly ringing phone.
I wrote a ssage on the notepad, copied it, and pasted it to everyone who had ssaged .
This is Kim Doha. Im currently busy and will explain the situation later.
Finally, the vibrations stopped.
Master, what happened?
Serena and Ciel, who seed unable to understand the current situation, were only looking at .
But I was in just as much need of understanding.
Just a mont
I took a mont to gather my thoughts.
The first thing that ca to mind was the phrase from the ranking window:
Defeating Ashimones minions is the will of Goddess Hestia.
I had a rough idea about Ashimone since I had heard about it from Kwon Junyong: She was a goddess of hell and was known by a certain unpleasant term.
Then who was Goddess Hestia?
Judging by the fact that she likely manipulated the ranking window as she pleased, it could be inferred that Hestia was the one supporting this system and status window.
Furthermore, through the phrase in the ranking window, Hestia made her intention clear:
To defeat Ashimones minions.
In other words, Hestia was an enemy of Ashimone.
There was a saying, The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so one could argue that Hestia might be an ally to the surviving survivors, at least for now.
Then why did she suddenly create sothing called a ranking window?
After thinking this far, the conclusion was obvious.
To defeat more of Ashimones minions and to do it faster.
Since it would be used to tempt the stronger ability users, who wouldnt want to hold a high rank?
She was saying this:
Work harder to defeat the enemies and receive the grace of the goddess.
Show off your abilities to others through the ranking window.
A thod to increase performance by creating competition.
I like it.
Hestia was a goddess who knew how to use her head.
At least she was different from the unpleasant term Ashimone, who made people slaves through unfair contracts.
Good.
Once I had sorted things out in my mind, the conclusion beca simple.
This suddenly created ranking system was also working in my favor.
Ever since I heard Kwon Junyongs story, I had planned to disclose all information in the community and request the nations ability users to block the rifts.
But now that this ranking window appeared, the persuasiveness of my words would increase.
As a bonus, from now on, the rift strategy I would use was the guidebook for the top ranker.
But the imdiate thing to do was
Shall we go catch the chicken first?
Serenas face brightened up as she exclaid.
Yes, yes, yes!
Ciel looked at Serena and smiled contentedly.
2.
We ca to Yangju in the first place to catch chickens to raise as livestock.
Of course, we caught Kwon Junyong as if a cow had backed into a mouse, but
Returning to the poultry farm, we stuffed the chickens into a large net we brought from D-Mart as we caught them.
Cluck-cluck-cluck
Cock-a-doodle-doo
Cluck!
We seed to have captured dozens of them.
Lets go, Ciel.
Departure!
Heavy, its heavyyyy!
Ciel complained that it was heavy, but sohow, she lifted it.
We soon returned to D-Mart.
From a distance, as the D-Mart looked small, a person who had been on guard on the rooftop spotted us and waved.
He must have alerted the others, as by the ti we arrived, people were gathered around the chicken coop like clouds.
Wow, chickens!
How many are there?
Now we can eat eggs too!
I want chicken! Freshly fried chicken
You all worked hard!
Thank you, Mr. Doha!
A few thank yous led to people giving us a round of applause.
Clap-clap-clap-clap-clap
Hahaha You dont have to do that.
Yahoo!
Serena waved to the people with a smile, and Ciel stood quietly behind .
At that mont, Lee Jinah, who was near the land prepared for farming, ran over.
Captain! What did that system ssage an earlier?
It was a short question, but her face was full of curiosity.
Ill tell you soon. Lets have a survivors representative eting. Gather the people.
Yes!
Lee Jinah quickly disappeared into the mart.
I walked slowly towards the conference room.
3.
Most people looked confused by the sudden call.
Ordinary people without abilities couldnt summon the status window, so the notification about the ranking window must have only appeared to the ability users.
As I made eye contact with Baek Seona, she gave a slight nod.
I began to speak in earnest.
The reason I suddenly called this eting is to inform you about the new information we acquired today and to discuss our future direction.
From then on, the explanation of the events of the day continued.
The encounter with the zombie man at a poultry farm in Yangju.
Following that zombie man that led to finding Asimones Rift inside a house.
Information obtained from interrogating the zombie man, Kwon Junyong.
The existence of Asimone, the goddess of hell.
The connection between newly erging mutant zombies and the rift.
What we had seen inside the rift.
The sudden appearance of the ranking window for all ability users after successfully sealing the rift was notified by a system alert.
After all the explanations, the room was enveloped in silence.
There were so many shocking details that it seed they needed ti to absorb them.
That was when Baek Jihun raised his hand.
Uh, Jihun, go ahead.
How much of the information you ntioned do you plan to share, hyung? If people know about it, it could help to stop the rifts before they get unsealed.
Good question. I plan to organize all this information and post it on the community. I will reveal that I am the number one ranked Kim Doha and include strategies for dealing with the rifts.
At my answer, Baek Jihun nodded his head, smiling.
You are indeed my hyung. But by any chance Do you have any video footage of the inside of the rift?
Oops. I had forgotten that.
I even took proof photos to upload to the community, but I didnt think to record the inside
I didnt think that far. I guess I was nervous since it was my first ti going in.
No, brother. Sealing the rift for the first ti is already a great achievent.
Baek Jihun waved his hand as if to say, dont worry about it.
Next, Baek Seona raised her hand.
Ill try writing the post to upload to the community. Of course, the strategies for the rift will be based on what Doha oppa has said. Im confident in writing it in an easy-to-read way. Besides, people dont read well these days without a three-line summary.
Great. Ill leave that to you, Seona.
Things were progressing smoothly.
I wanted to post the first strategy and then record a video of the inside of the rift next ti.
Other people attending the eting began to speak as well.
Is there anything that ordinary people without abilities can do?
We must strengthen our defenses. We never know when the mutant zombies from the rift might attack on a large scale.
They were said to be intelligent too.
Will the barrier of the land of hope be effective against the mutant zombies?
There are broken asphalt and stones from farming. We can make barricades with those
Listening up to that point, I raised my hand.
Then, peoples gaze focused on .
Speaking of those rifts, actually, Ciel can roughly sense the energy coming from the rifts.
The attention shifted to Ciel.
Ciel silently nodded her head.
Oh, wow!
Thats great!
Then can we preemptively strike before the mutant zombies pour out?
I nodded my head.
Yes. So, for the ti being, I intend to concentrate on sealing the rifts as I go around the area with Serena and Ciel.
Wow
As soon as I finished speaking, Baek Jihun exclaid.
I really admire you, hyung. You are truly a savior.
This guy was all good, but sotis, he would make shaless comnts that were even embarrassing to the listener.
At that ti, Mr. Sangdeok, who was attending the eting as a cafeteria representative, spoke, nodding his head.
I agree. No matter how strong ones sense of justice is, its not sothing anyone can do. Thank you always, Doha.
Mr. Sangdeok was also soone who always said thank you as a habit whenever we t.
When those two began to speak, everyone participating in the eting suddenly began to say sothing one by one.
Looking at the internet, it seems like nowhere else is living as well as us. Thank you, Doha.
Really. If it werent for Doha, we would have been slaves to that bastard Choi Cheolnam. Theres really nothing else to say but thank you.
There must be a lot of survivors still living as slaves, right? Human rights are no longer a concept. Its maintained because of Doha.
Uh, uh
I was taken aback.
An unbearable, cringeworthy energy filled the eting room.
Ive said all I have to say, so todays eting will end here. Please continue to share your thoughts.
I quickly left the eting room.
Hes running away because hes embarrassed!
He hasnt finished speaking yet!
4.
After leaving the eting room, I headed alone to Baek Seonas room.
She said earlier that she would write a post to upload to the community, so I planned to wait here and write it together.
I told Serena and Ciel to rest in our room.
In that empty room, I lay on the bed and fell into deep thought.
The people who had just painted my face with praise.
Was it truly a sincere expression of gratitude? Or was it calculated flattery?
The real power in this D-Mart was concentrated in the hands of those with abilities.
Because it was structured to operate by those with abilities.
It would be the sa anywhere, not just here, if it were a gathering of survivors who had lived through this zombie apocalypse.
It was different from the past society, where all mbers did their part and contributed to the community.
In this zombie apocalypse, those with abilities contribute overwhelmingly more to the community, almost incomparable to ordinary people.
In other words, ordinary people without abilities were in an inherently insecure position.
We could be abandoned by those with abilities at any ti.
We must look good to those with abilities.
These thoughts might unconsciously take hold.
Once I had these thoughts, it beca difficult to accept peoples expressions of gratitude as purely sincere.
Sigh
After worrying about such trivial matters for about 30 minutes, the rooms owner returned.
Ugh
Baek Seona looked at and ca in with a wry smile.
Everyone wanted to express their gratitude, thinking it was a chance. Shouldnt you have accepted it?
Hearing her words, I pondered for a mont.
Should I tell this to Baek Seona or not?
She was one of the few people who knew all my secrets, including my abilities.
Apart from Serena and Ciel, who had beco human through my abilities, she was the only one.
There must be no worries I couldnt talk to Baek Seona about.
I honestly shared my inner thoughts.
Baek Seona, who silently listened to my words, suddenly apologized.
Im sorry.
For what?
The words I said as soon as I ca in earlier. I didnt know it would be a burden to you
Heh heh. Its okay.
I smiled and patted Baek Seonas head.
Doha oppa. You dont need to act composed in front of .
Im really okay now.
Then Im glad.
Baek Seona chuckled, then spoke with a serious expression.
But you know, I dont think their expressions of gratitude were hypocritical for their own safety. Everyone is sincerely thankful. To Doha oppa, who saved all of our lives.
I continued to stroke Baek Seonas head without saying a word.
She accepted it as she looked into my eyes and hugged tightly.
How about trusting if you cant trust people? I was a useless woman without any abilities. You saved my life. You saved my family, too. I truly thank you with all my heart. Do you doubt my sincerity, too?
Her eyes quietly looked at .
In them, a pure heart without a hint of hesitation was beating.
No. I dont doubt.
Hee hee hee.
Baek Seona smiled contentedly.
But Oppa.
Huh?
I read sothing on the internet Do you feel bad right now?
No, I feel good.
You were uneasy just before. Hurry up and say you feel bad.
I answered with my half doubts.
Yeah, I feel bad.
Then Baek Seona took off her shirt and offered her chest wrapped in a white bra, saying:
Then want to touch my chest?
Really, Baek Seona, you
This playful succubus
Since we were sitting on the bed and hugging each other, she imdiately noticed my swelling arousal.
Her eyes were wide with excitent as she looked at .
