People seemed reluctant to listen to me.
Everyone seemed frightened at the sight of the hideous demon.
However, that demon was actually of the lowest rank, one that even I could easily catch.
[The ability ‘Fate Seeing’ is activated!]
═══════════════
[Name] Giant Silkworm
[Grade] Insect Third Grade
[Description] A giant silkworm. It mainly eats plants, but will also eat animals and humans.

-Crunch!
The dragonfly that was rushing towards me was torn apart in midair.
It was an easy opponent, but people were still scared and hid behind them.
I can monopolize everything, so it doesn’t matter if they don’t go hunting.
Then a sound like a slam was heard.
-Ugh!
When I looked around, I saw Shin Soo-ah hitting the sleeping bag with a fire extinguisher.
Shin Soo-ah said with surprised eyes.
“It’s not as strong as I thought.”
Even in my previous life, the person who first adapted to this situation was Shin Soo-ah.
It was a bit surprising to see Shin Soo Ah, who could easily catch a dragon-level demon, being surprised by a high-level demon.
She spoke to me.
“What should I do now?”
“I think we should just deal with the guys who are coming in first.”
-Squeak!
I stomped on a snail that was trying to squeeze through the gap, then immediately swung my sword.
Shin Soo-ah was cleaning up the opposite direction while bodily fluids and blood were splattering everywhere.
Thanks to Shin Soo-ah’s participation, the 7th floor was quickly taken care of.
People started moving hurriedly as all the sleeping bags disappeared.
“Now let’s run away quickly!”
“Yes! I have to go now!”
They began to evacuate down urgently.
The way down isn’t exactly safe, though.
I glanced at them, then picked up the jade from the turtle’s mouth and put it in my pocket.
While everyone had left, a trace of life lingered behind.
“Hey… … . Aren’t you going down there?”
Shin Soo-ah was left alone and looking at me with concern.
After I took all the jade, I stood up from my seat.
“Aren’t you going to evacuate?”
“I can’t leave you alone.”
There was concern for me in her voice.
You could have run away with someone else, but you stayed behind because you were worried about me, a stranger you were meeting.
I thought that aspect was still the same.
I glanced toward the stairs.
“Okay. Let’s go down slowly.”
I had to move because if I waited here any longer, it would come out.
We started to descend, relying on the light from our smartphones.
The floor was slippery, whether it was blood or mucus.
Meanwhile, it was ominously quiet down below.
It wouldn’t matter if Geojam came out, but just in case, I spoke to Shin Soo-ah.
“I’m going to say some weird things, but just know that I’m not crazy.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“It feels like we have superpowers now.”
Shin Soo-ah looked at me as if asking what on earth I was talking about.
Before she could mistake me for a crazy person, I quickly continued my explanation.
“Now, based on our four pillars, we have been given abilities. Shin Soo Ah will have the ability called Mokyeopjibeop. The four pillars window will open soon.”
My ‘fate vision’ had another use.
If I read the other person’s fortune, the other person can also awaken.
There was a time when I tried to make some money with this, but with the rumor that I was killing people spreading, there was no way anyone would ask me for a job.
After a while, Shin Soo-ah spoke with a flustered look on her face.
“I can really see that Sajuchang! I can also see the supernatural ability called Mokyeopjibeop… … .”
“You can protect yourself with that. Just try it out.”
“Yes, I understand!”
[The ability ‘Mokyeopjibeop’ is activated!]
Shin Soo-ah took a deep breath and activated her power.
But nothing happened.
Instead, only a notification window pops up.
[The ability ‘Mokyeopjibeop’ cannot be used.]

[There are no trees, plants or soil in the vicinity.]
It seemed like there were restrictions because the level was still low.
As you level up, you’ll be able to use your abilities even in rooms surrounded by concrete.
Shin Soo-ah said with a slightly embarrassed look on her face.
“It doesn’t work. What should I do?”
“It’s okay. Just fight like you did before.”
Shin Soo-ah nodded and started following me down again.
Surprisingly, no human bodies were seen while heading down.
It seemed like the maggots had probably eaten everything.
-Whew… … .
Then suddenly, a wind blew from somewhere.
It was inside the 5th floor.
The inside was empty, as if construction was underway.
Construction materials could be seen piled up messily everywhere.
It was a strangely eerie sight.
“I think there’s someone over there… … .”
Shin Soo-ah said, pointing somewhere.
There was someone lying in the darkness.
As I got closer, the smell of blood began to waft around me.
“Is he dead?”
Shin Soo-ah said in an anxious voice.
I slowly approached the person.
There is a sure way to tell if someone is dead or alive.
[The ability ‘Steal the Four Pillars of Destiny’ is activated!]
[The current death toll within range is 1.]
He died. That was bad luck.
Shin Soo-ah looked saddened when she saw the corpse, but I had no time to mourn.
The older the corpse, the more magical power is consumed.
I quickly activated my ability.
[Steals the target’s abilities!]
[Due to low proficiency, only 1 item can be stolen.]
[You have acquired the ability ‘Gwangyeom Iljang’!]
═══════════════
[Ability] Light Flame One Jang
[Grade] Insect Third Grade
[Description] The ability to freely ignite and control small flames. Long-range attacks are also possible within sight.
═══════════════
Fortunately, the ability was activated as it was a corpse that had not been dead for long.
The flame-type light was a flame-type supernatural ability.
The rating is low, but it’s not bad for an attack.
In the meantime, notification windows popped up one after another and caught my eye.
[A small amount of karma is accumulated as a penalty for the ability!]
It’s not a good thing to accumulate karma, but right now I needed this ability.
I don’t know exactly how much has accumulated, but it won’t cause any immediate side effects, so it should be fine for the time being.
While I was checking the effect of my ability, Shin Soo-ah grabbed the hem of my clothes.
“Hey, something is coming from outside.”
As she said, muttering could be heard from outside.
Is that him?
I looked at the door while hiding Shin Soo-ah behind me.
“… … If we look at it this way, is it like a tutorial stage?”
A man was entering the entrance.
He was a man of decent appearance, covered in blood here and there, but did not seem to be seriously injured.
He was muttering something while holding an iron pipe.
“Well, if it’s a bad development, they’ll send out a guy who can’t be caught from the beginning. At least in a normal novel… … No, is it a development where you die once and return or get reincarnated?”
It was a familiar face.
Yeah, that guy Dokgo Jun started from here too.
Shin Soo-ah whispered softly.
“Is that person okay?”
“It’ll be okay.”
At that moment, the sound of a bug crawling was heard from outside.
The target was Dokgo Jun, who was closest.
Even though the devil was approaching, Dokgo Jun was lost in thought.
-Keeeeet!
When the turtle discovered its prey, it jumped towards Dokgo Jun with a hissing sound.
Blood gushed out in an instant.
-Crack!
“As expected, it’s a tutorial stage so it’s okay.”
Geojam was hit by an iron pipe swung by Dokgo Jun and died as if he was crushed.
After that, the geese started flocking in haphazardly.
However, Dokgo Jun swung the iron pipe without hesitation and cut the turtles in half.
Dokgo Jun.
Before his awakening, he was a famous web novel writer, and after his awakening, he became famous as one of the leaders of the five major sects.
He was notorious for his eccentric personality and eccentric behavior, but he was also extremely strong.
═══════════════
[Name] Dokgo Jun
[Rank] Shinsampum (God’s Three Grades)
[Attribute] Gold
▼
[Ability] Dreamer
[Grade] Yongilpum (龍一品)
[Description] Breaks down the barrier between reality and fantasy, making you less affected by ghosts. Mental power, pain tolerance, and fear tolerance are adjusted to at least the Yongilpum level.
═══════════════
Although his rank was high, his physical abilities would be the same as usual since his Sajuchang had not awakened.
Of course, Geojam is a demon that can be easily killed by the strength of an ordinary person.
However, it would not be easy for an ordinary person to defeat a monster that suddenly appears without hesitation.
Of course, that guy doesn’t fall into the category of ordinary people.
At that moment, Dokgo Jun discovered us, and our eyes suddenly met.
“Huh? There were survivors.”
There was no particular surprise in the voice. There was just a hint of surprise.
He began to mutter something with his head slightly bowed.
“It doesn’t look like he’s an extra… … . Maybe he’s a supporting actor? Or maybe it’s an event where he gets a colleague… … .”
Five years later, he was the same.
He used to talk nonsense even in normal times.
Dokgo Jun, who had been mumbling for a while, nodded.
“I think it’s probably a colleague event. My name is Dokgo Jun. Please take care of me.”
He suddenly held out his right hand. I looked at him for a moment and then took his hand.
“This is Seo Kang-rim.”
“Who is behind you?”
“Shin… … My name is Su-ah.”
He nodded as if he understood.
“I came up here because the event wasn’t happening anymore, and it seems to be progressing now. Then I’ll join up with these two people… … .”
He understood this situation as a game or a novel.
That’s why you can act calmly in this situation.
Then suddenly, Dokgo Jun turned his gaze towards the door.
“Ah, I guess it’s working now.”
I heard someone running urgently, and then I ran inside the 5th floor.
Just now, the people who had come down from the cafe first all looked astonished.
One person shouted urgently.
“Hey, save me! It’s a monster!”
And as if to prove that, a strange sound was quickly approaching from behind.
It should have appeared on the 7th floor as usual, but did it come down because there was no food?
I quickly took up a fighting stance.
-Sassassassak… …!
A giant bug appeared with a scratching sound.
No, to be exact, it wasn’t just one.
Dozens, hundreds, if not thousands of silkworms were entangled together as if they were a single mass of flesh.
-Kikiki… … !
Although each silkworm was small in size, when they gathered together, they formed a shape that was nearly 3 meters long.
Dokgo Jun said with a very happy face.
“Of course, there has to be at least one impactful boss monster in the prologue!”
“Ugh, eww! Save me!”
Unlike Dokgo Jun, the others started screaming in fear.
The giant bug immediately rushed at the person who had screamed.
-Still!
An unpleasant noise rang out loud.
It was the sound of a demon biting the head of a person who was running away.
While Shin Soo Ah looked at the scene in shock, Dokgo Jun spoke calmly.
“Ah. I guess you weren’t a fellow character.”
