00009 Kim Soo-hyun begins the rite of passage. ————————————————– ———————-=

“under… . “I’m so frustrated that I can’t stand it!”

“Hi!”

Park Dong-geol, who had been looking around from earlier, seemed to be trying to find the right moment, and stepped out into the center of the vacant lot, raising his voice as loud as he could. Lee Shin-woo, perhaps surprised by the sudden swear word, let out a hoarse sound. And for a split second, Park Dong-geol did not miss the satisfied smile he saw at Lee Shin-woo. To put it nicely, it was an act of suppressing the momentum, but to put it in a vulgar way, it was an act of betrayal.

“hey! Do you guys know anything about this shitty situation? huh?”

Ansol was trembling in Anhyeon’s arms. Ahn Hyun and the two women I couldn’t identify had different expressions.

One had a relatively calm expression, but the other did not seem to like Park Dong-geol suddenly making a fuss. He was glaring with his eyes narrowed. Suddenly, I was curious to see the user information of the two women, but decided to watch the man’s actions for now.

“Is everyone here just dumb? “Don’t just keep your mouth shut, try saying something!”

‘It’s black.’

Does he want to show off that he has a temperament, or does he want to show off his masculinity? Park Dong-geol made a violent gesture and violently kicked the fist-sized stones that were visible around him. The rock he kicked flew up with quite a force and disappeared into the forest. An awkward silence fell among the people sitting at his sudden action. But I could hear clearly. There was no sound of a stone falling to the ground.

Purr.

At that moment, a soft cry rang out in the quiet forest. Even if they couldn’t hear the sound of the stones, it seemed like everyone heard the crying just now. A glimpse of anxiety flashed across their faces. I can’t remember everything because it happened 10 years ago, but I vaguely felt old memories coming back to me.

What happened in this place then?

“C’mon, c’pearl!” What kind of guy are you? If you have any complaints, come out immediately. Come out and talk, okay? it’s you? Or you?”

Park Dong-geol cruelly pointed out those who seemed relatively weak. Lee Bo-rim and Lee Shin-woo quickly shook their heads with thoughtful faces. At that time, a woman who had been glaring at Park Dong-geol earlier stood up in anger. It looks like she was holding her breath for quite some time.

“Uncle, will you please stop? “What are you doing now, eating away at your age?”

“what? What~? Will you please stop? Are you living up to your age? “Are you doing that to me?”

“Yes, I did. What should I do? Aren’t you embarrassed? “Everyone is in the same situation right now, so why are you scolding me and making such a fuss?”

“Speak informally now? How did Ssangnyeon receive home education to constantly confront adults and speak informally to them? Did your parents teach you that?”

“Bitch? Ha, let’s see~ Let’s see… Okay, so your parents teach you to live your age and scold your kids? You piece of trash!”

I chuckled to myself as I watched the woman hit me hard without backing down. At first, Park Dong-geol just laughed as if he was dumbfounded. But soon his face was turning bright red as if he was getting angry. He snorted loudly and then walked towards the woman with steps that seemed like he was going to eat her.

Soon, Park Dong-geol, standing in front of the woman, opened his mouth with a grim expression on his face.

“Hey, twin bitch. What do parents say? “Say it again.”

If an average adult man did something like this, it would be shocking. However, I don’t know if it was because the woman was so strong, or if she was just fearless, but she looked Park Dong-geol straight in the eye and snorted.

“funny. Do you think I’d be scared if you did that? Did your father and mother teach you that? “You f*cking bastard!”

“This f*cking bitch is really trying to get behind… .”

Park Dong-geol’s fist slowly rose into the air, as if he truly felt deep anger. Despite this, the woman didn’t even bat an eye. Just like that, Park Dong-geol was about to get into shape to throw a punch.

“Hey, uncle. “Please stop.”

Ahn Hyeon, who had been silent until now, spoke out for the first time. Park Dong-geol, who was about to hit the woman on the cheek, looked back at Ahn Hyeon with a bewildered look on her face. Next to her, she saw Sol An pulling her collar tightly. However, Anhyeon finally opened her mouth once more.

“There’s nothing wrong with what he said. We’re all in the same position, why are you doing this? “Those people did something wrong.”

“this… . These kites… .”

Park Dong-geol bit his lip as if he was feeling ashamed. However, as if he felt the eyes pouring on him, the fist that had gone up was coming down again. When the woman showed a weak sneer, Park Dong-geol suddenly screamed and turned around to face her. As she sat down again, she continued to wheeze, and it seemed like she was throwing a tantrum when things didn’t go as she expected.

“f*ck, what are you talking about! “Aren’t you rolling your eyes?”

In the end, Park Dong-geol must have been unable to hold back his anger, so he took out his anger on Lee Shin-woo, who was sitting quietly next to him. Lee Shin-woo moved to his seat to look at her chagrined face. It was then.

Purr.

The crying sound we heard just now was clearly heard in our ears again. And finally, I was able to make my vague memories concrete.

At that time, we would have been killing time like this and then be scattered by a sudden attack. The cause was the rock that Park Dong-geol had kicked earlier, and the loud noise with the woman.

These are all the memories I have of these people. I don’t know what happened after that, but considering I haven’t seen him on the hole plane since… .

‘Are you saying they all died in the rite of passage? Oh, maybe not Ansol.’

If we continue our time like this, we might just repeat the first episode. No, it definitely will.

I decided to offer some help. However, I had no intention of providing direct help. First of all, I only planned to help them to the extent of giving them an opportunity to move and cooperate with each other. So, I immediately picked up the crossbow.

Slam!

“hey. What are you doing… ?”

Everyone seems to be so sensitive that even the slightest noise attracts attention.

The person who spoke to me was a woman who had just recently boasted of her amazing speaking skills. Still, he didn’t speak informally from the beginning, as if he had a concept. Park Dong-geol seemed to have quite a few ugly hairs on him.

“You’re anxious.”

“I’m more anxious about that crossbow.”

“well… . “Where do you think you are right now?”

“yes?”

The woman opened her eyes wide. Her eyes were sharp and she looked angry, but overall she had a pretty face.

“When I came here, I experienced many situations that I could not understand. “Isn’t that the same for everyone here?”

“that… . Yes… .”

People nodding and shaking their heads. Chamber of Summoning, Angel, Transmission. These people must have also experienced and witnessed it. As such, what they need now is an attitude to accept reality as quickly as possible, even if it is impossible for now, and to actively engage in the rite of passage for survival.

I started loading arrows into my repeating crossbow. Although it was a bit small for a crossbow, it was quite convenient as it was detachable and could be worn on the wrist. One by one, each person began to raise the weapons they had brought, as if they had felt something from the crying they had just heard and my actions.

Eventually, everyone took up arms except for those who came empty-handed. The preparations are roughly finished. I looked around and calmly lost in thought.

The place we were currently in was an open space in the middle of the forest. Everywhere is full of trees and forests. I started moving in the opposite direction from where Park Dong-geol had just kicked the stone.

Even though I only moved a few steps from the vacant lot, it felt noticeably darker. The trees and grass in front of me had a gloomy glow.

You may feel some level of anxiety when you hear crying. I could feel the number of people following me behind me slowly increasing. Just when I was thinking that my ability to act was okay, my plan faltered from the start.

“Hey, Ansol. Wake up quickly. “We should quickly follow him.”

“I don’t like it… . I don’t want to go inside… . It’s scary… .”

“So are you going to stay here? You’ve been like that since before. I feel anxious. I don’t think I should be here. But why is this happening all of a sudden?”

“Ugh… .”

The moment I heard the brother and sister’s conversation, I felt strength coming into my eyes. Since she has a luck stat of 100 points, she may be feeling something herself. But this is just a guess. It seemed like she had not yet overcome her instinctive fear and had no intention of getting her butt off the ground.

Purr! Purr!

While the two were arguing, a few more cries were heard. The voices were getting louder, and it was clear that they had almost reached the perimeter. At first, people waited calmly for the two, but soon one by one they began to show signs of impatience.

“Hey, over there. Can’t we go first? Actually, my body has been shaking since a while ago… .”

“Well, let’s do that! Just leave it and go. What is this all of a sudden… .”

Lee Shin-woo’s voice was full of sorrow, as if he had mustered up some courage. And Park Dong-geol immediately agreed and came in.

Did you hear that you should leave first, or did you feel that way? Anhyeon pulled on Ansol with an even more urgent look on her face.

“Now, wake up. My brother is next to me. huh? “Please listen to me.”

“under… . But my feet won’t fall off… . Ugh… .”

Ansol finally burst into tears. Meanwhile, Lee Shin-woo and Park Dong-geol were paying attention from earlier. It seemed like he wanted to get out of this unstable space as quickly as possible. Of course, I had no intention of abandoning those two. Even if I had to abandon these people, it was much more beneficial to go with those two people.

“Oh, let’s just go! “Why are you standing still!”

“Hey, hurry up… .”

As the murmur intensified, Ahn Hyeon’s face hardened. Then he ended up forcefully striking away his brother’s hand, which was holding on to his collar. Ansol lifted her head and pursed her lips.

“Oh, brother?”

“okay. Then you are here alone. “I’ll go somewhere else.”

You’re lying. However, Ahn Hyeon’s acting was pretty good. After finishing her words, she turned around mercilessly, holding her sword and shield. Ansol pursed her lips as if she was greatly shocked as she saw Anhyun coming towards us with great strides. Then, she must have heard Ahn Hyun’s voice saying, “I’m sorry for keeping you waiting. Let’s go.” She immediately began to openly shed sad tears. Be that as it may, Ahn Hyun deliberately urged us on and pretended to take the lead into the forest.

“Ugh… . Brother… . Don’t go… .”

“Ansol, wake up right now. Please understand the situation, okay?”

“It’s my fault… . Don’t throw it away again… . Don’t go… . Ugh… . Ugh… .”

“you… . “Why don’t you wake up right now?!”

In the end, Ahn Hyeon opened his eyes and raised his voice. That seemed to have had some effect on her, and Ansol slowly got up while crying. It was then.

Crumble! Crumble! Crumble! Crumble!

‘Oh my, did I procrastinate too much?’

I felt frustrated. It wasn’t a sense of disappointment stemming from fear, but rather a sense of despair that the future might change and Ansol might be lost here. The identity of the crying sound could now be heard more clearly, as if it was almost within reach. The problem was that Ansol, who had just woken up, froze.

“oh… . brother… .”

The distance was widening little by little. Even though he saw Ansol reaching out his hand in confusion, Anhyun’s actions were resolute. No, he seemed to be pretending to be calm. Her speaking skills seemed to be worse than hers, so she tried to step forward herself, but Ahn Hyeon raised her hand and stopped her.

“Just leave it alone.”

“brother! “Don’t leave me alone!”

“Then come here yourself. It’s not too late. If you don’t do that, you definitely won’t be able to survive.”

“Ugh… .”

At that moment, I felt Anhyeon again. He was staring at Ansol with confident eyes. As if Anhyun’s sincerity was conveyed, Ansol showed the appearance of gritting his teeth. It seemed like she could come on her own if she waited just a little longer, but alas, she was too late.

Purr! Purr!

‘This cry is a dead man.’

Deadman. Although his name sounds grandiose, he is actually an unremarkable guy. In reality, the users of the Hole Plane were monsters so weak that they did not even consider Deadman a monster. He is said to have a certain level of intelligence and the ability to infect, but the infection can be easily cured if treated in time (although cure is unlikely to be possible here).

And if there is another characteristic… .

Wow!

It usually walks around at a slow pace, but when it finds prey, it changes to a running pace.

Deadman suddenly came out of the forest screaming and rushed towards Ansol with his mouth wide open. Perhaps unexpectedly, Anhyeon screamed and ran away.

“Sol!”

And it wasn’t just Anhyeon who screamed.

“Ugh, ugh!”

“Ouch!”

It was like watching a zombie movie. As the monster, with pieces of torn flesh shaking here and there, rushed towards them, the group immediately fell into confusion. There was a rock stuck in his chest, the inside of which was clearly visible, and it was clearly the rock that Park Dong-geol had kicked earlier. If so, he would be the one wandering around us after getting hit with a rock.

Purr! Purr! Purr! Purr! Purr! Purr! Purr! Purr!

Perhaps in response to the people’s screams, the cries of the dead men beyond the forest increased further.

“Aaaah!”

“Sol! Wake! Solaa!”

Ansol, who had barely managed to get up, seemed to have completely lost his mind when he saw the dead man. Although Ahn Hyun was quick to run away, she was closer to the dead man. An Hyun must have felt it too, as she stretched her hand holding her sword wide backwards. She then swung hard at the Dead Man.

Pingrrr! Pop!

‘oh? Did you hit it?’

The sword flew with great force and brilliantly knocked off Deadman’s left arm. But that was all. The guy stumbled for a moment, then regained his bearings and ran until he reached Ansol.

“No way!”

Deadman with his mouth wide open.

Ansol’s eyes are wide open.

And Ahn Hyeon cries.

I was sure at that moment. By taking certain actions, Ansol’s future also changed. Without hesitation, I fired the crossbow I had been preparing earlier.

ping!

The arrow flew with a sharp crack, and pierced the deadman’s head cleanly with a thud. Deadman’s weak point was his head. Even a rock he kicked would not be able to stop an arrow digging into his chest. The Dead Man fell with his mouth open.

Slurp!

“mi… . crazy… .”

“omg… . omg… .”

The reactions of those who had just seen the monster were almost similar. It seems like everyone has finally realized that this situation is no joke as everyone reflexively grabs their weapons. Of course, he probably had a general idea of ​​the situation, but if it had been vague up to now, a serious atmosphere was now clearly brewing.

In the meantime, An Hyun’s actions were swift. He quickly ran over and helped Ansol, who was gaping. And quickly returned to where we were. He, too, seemed quite surprised by the situation just now and was still breathing heavily.

Soon everyone’s eyes were focused on me. I moved to the lead. Although I only killed one, many more will gather in a little while. There was no doubt that the deadmen were gathering towards this place because the crying was getting louder than before. If they form a siege network, it will be quite a headache.

I started walking without saying anything.
