I'm still alive

It would be nice to have a fly through their heads. However, it was a long time since the sword I had left my hand, and I made a wooden spear using a sack as I wished. I slowly began to look at the atmosphere around me, touching the crudely broken window.

The people in the hospital room had no idea of anyone coming forward, and everyone except me was looking at the two groups running toward this place with their fearful eyes. And in that short moment I could feel the feelings they felt desperately. Because their pupils contained a selfish element of resentment.

I hold my hand quietly and then I bloom. Yes, you must be wondering why you're running away here. The instinct that makes it natural to be human, but ugly to be human. I felt disgusted and used to it at the same time. Now there was no excitement, no emotional agitation. Just in that atheism......, it was just a little bit of regret.

Perhaps he was expecting a little from the peaceful atmosphere he saw earlier. But look at those eyes. They were not innocent sheep, but dog pigs that ate feed. Of course I couldn't blame them, but I couldn't say that their lives were right. I shook off my seat and shook off my hopes as I got up.

You have to change to live. Nothing has changed even if I sit still and curse the world. To protect my precious people, and to protect myself. Even if it's a hustle and bustle, it should never stop. I began to shake off the pain I felt all over my body, and slowly to warm up. Then I could feel that the wound, which began to heal, was slowly opening up. The skin is torn, and deep blood leaks out between it. But I didn't stop.

We have to save it! What?!

As I stepped down the stairs and came down to the first floor, I could hear Kang Yumi crying and screaming. And in front of the building were many people, including Kang Yu-mi, who were stamping their feet, all holding crude weapons. Are we gathered here to save that group of people running away? No, they were moving to reinforce the barricades and block all the crowds running this way.

That's enough for me. Perhaps if you fight at the risk of damage, you will be able to rescue the fleeing herd brilliantly. But Kang Yu-mi was the only one among those groups who said to save people, and she was the only one. Learning fear has tied these survivors to invisible shackles. I began to slowly cross between them.

Just as the wind passes through the reeds, my stretched hands push people and move their steps. What is it? Who is that? The roaring of voices from all sides flashed through my atheism, and it closed my ears as if it had not existed. And I grabbed the man's hand trying to stop the last barricade. Then all eyes turned to me and the babble stopped.

What, what is it?’

May I pass?’

I politely asked the man who blocked the way. But even with my polite request, the man does not answer and hardens his face. Time passes. I neither forced him to answer, nor physically constrained him. It was just counting down to one, two, three and waiting for the man's answer.

'That......'

But the man turned pale and began to stammer. His wobbly eyes were pondering whether he would leave his seat or stop me.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

And at that moment, the cries of the distant men and the sounds of those fleeing them began to ring at the same time. The man who heard the noise crouched, and I lift my head and look at the two groups approaching 100 meters in front. There's not much time left.

'Uh......?'

The man blocking the entrance made a stupid noise and shot his buttocks. Pushing the man as he was, I held the sack window forward, and exhaled deeply, feeling the lingering aftertaste of the wound.

Oh, the patient suit is very thin. I felt like the cold and the biting wind were taking the residue from my body one by one. Familiar touch, so glad fear. After a short period of time, I face the gray city again, and slowly move on.

Did the old man and Kang Soo-ryeon arrive safely? Facing this gray city again, I suddenly thought of my party. Yeah, let's be positive. I'm alive too, and I'm sure they're alive too. The surviving old man must have taken her to Eden, didn't he? And maybe you've been looking for me and looking for the home of the ones whose whole thing is on fire.

He was so absorbed in his thoughts that a group of people who had come running was approaching 10 meters in front of him. There must be a woman named Jin-soon who saved me. But there was no woman in her busy eyes.

'I...! I, I, I! What's that! Hey! Hurry up and run!'

And what caught my eye was a young man running from the front. The man, who was breathing heavily and taking care of the party running with him, began to shout as soon as he found me, "Running away in a hurry." I stopped for a moment and looked at the man. A man in a fluffy sweatshirt and ripped sneakers. And the man was strangely wearing a pink fur hat. Pink and dirty man. What a strange combination.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The fleeing crowd just passed me, whether I was in front of them or not, and ran toward the private hospital building. But only the man who was leading them in the lead grabbed my arm and began shouting, "Let's go together." Thick hands holding my arm, and the smell of disgusting sweat coming up from the man. But I wasn't in a bad mood. Because he looked good, taking care of people and helping me for the first time.

‘!!!’

Haha!

But there were no ones to applaud for such a touching scene. In that short moment, those who had quickly narrowed the distance rushed at me and the man, and he, who missed the time to run away because of me, sat on the floor terribly. an audible scream There was no strength in the shrill scream.

Whoo.

The wind blows and the heart calms down. I began to concentrate on the hair swaying in the wind, and the phenomena that all the elements exhaled. Since when was it start? I started emptying my head just before the fight. I began to relax my whole body like a child preparing for sleep. But the sagging muscles contained the power to rush out at any moment, and I breathed out steamy breaths and contained clarity in the slowing time.

The one who reached out to me looked so small. I can feel his every move, and even the slightest movement of his muscles. The calves swell up when you put a force on your feet. My arm, holding the sack, was raised forward, and the crude spear point straight ahead. There will be no need to give strength. I'll give him back all the excess power that comes without direction, as I always have.

There was no hesitation in the future on the day that was aimed at, nor was there any fear of stepping down. Stretch your body and stretch your spear forward. Then the spear that went forward pierced his right eye. I can't remember the middle course. I imprinted only the last moment in my brain like a machine that killed him.

And when I kicked him in the stomach, the rigid man fell to the floor, and no more screams or loud noises were heard. But all the elements whisper in silence.

It's your time.

Remove the sack. Then black blood pours out with dirty eyeballs. I shook it off with a single swing, and pierced the neck of the man who was running after me. Of course, the man who was pierced by the neck did not die instantly, and he struggled with his will to kill. But I managed to get used to the struggle and walked off the foot of the man who was running behind me by half a second. In an instant I overpowered the two men. But the word subjugation is not allowed in this gray city.

I took out the spear blade that pierced my neck, and stabbed the struggling man in the left eye. His eyes, which sparkled with a foam, are crushed, and the blade of a window that enters without compromise turns the dirty brain behind the eyes into mud.

When he grabs the sack and rolls it, he stops moving as it is with a rattling sound. But even before you can feel the lingering effects of the destruction, you hear the screams and howls of women from the back barricades.

Why is he there? I left the sack as it was and turned my eyes toward the back. Then there came the last one who threw himself into a sloppy barricade and struggled to bite people. I'm sure I'm the one who tripped the center of gravity.

Of course, I was waiting for him to come to me, but he quickly changed his goal by showing his first-time behavior. Is it just a coincidence? I trudged back and forth, feeling reluctant. But at the moment I moved, the man who was drawing attention for a while called me hurriedly.

'This! This, take it!’

It's a very familiar voice. I followed the voice that was being heard, and I could find one thing that the man handed me. It was a rusty blade that would have been used in the countryside, too short to call Jungledo, and quite long to call an axe. What is clear, however, is that the weight was quite heavy enough to break his skull. I accepted the blade without hesitation.

'Well, it's... it's the Han River Park, right?

When I accepted the weapon, the man crumbled and spoke carefully. In front of my eyes was a pink fur hat in the shape of a Kitty, and at the same time a shivering man approaches me. Yeah, I know you wrote it because it's cold, but this doesn't suit you. I was thinking of giving advice to a man, but when I heard the word "Han River Park," I shut my mouth. Perhaps this man had something to do with a woman named Jin-soon who saved me. I took a slow step toward him and asked the man.

Is Jin-soon your younger brother? Or your wife?"

The man follows me on my way to deal with him and opens his eyes wide with surprise from the sudden question. But soon, he lost his mind with a stupid look on his face, and came up with this answer.

It's my name.….’

For a moment my steps stopped. I was swept away by the Han River water and found under the Han River Park. And this man was the one who saved me and brought me here.

Oh, no wonder you took care of the people and even the first time I saw you. I nodded quietly, feeling at the moment that the previous situation was convincing. And I thought that I should take care of urgent business and properly thank them.

But before that.

'Excuse me......and.'

'What?'

I know that my current recommendation is not suitable for this situation. But I had a strange mission to tell the man who looked at me stupidly. I turned around for a moment to face up to the man and to say one word after another.

Please change your name.’

He's stupid. Yeah? I asked back, and I turned around again as if I didn't have to hear the answer. And I sigh at the people still struggling in the barricades and who can't kill one. I ran across the floor and pulled out the blade that the man had handed me. And he drew it down to the back of his head, which was struggling. With a refreshing sound like cutting a watermelon, a strong flying man dies instantly.

* * *

'Thank you very much. Thank you very much...….’

'Sister! Squeeze!'

I took care of all the guys and went back into the building. Those who thought they would stop me cleared the barricades easier than I thought, and everyone was looking at me with their faces blacked out. Yeah, they must have been really scared. I gently raised my hand and looked at them as if reassuringly. However, people run away in a hurry as if they are still less nervous.

And now he's back in the room. I lay down on the bed with the thought of having to sleep a little, but I was interrupted by Jin-soon and Kang Yu-mi, who suddenly came with the door open. One is crying, the other is noisy. Sitting on the bed, I was caught by a woman named Kang Yu-mi and had to listen to a long time of tearful gratitude. She needs to save her close brother, but the sense of remorse and relief that she couldn't even come forward on her own flows down her tears.

Thank you very much....and they're all worried about Jin-soon, but she's not going to help.….’

By the time her nose was running yellow, I gently pushed her away. Then she sighed with tears and uttered a mixture of resentment, and at that moment the people in the hospital room flinch and turn their heads. A sigh comes out of my mouth by itself.

Yes, that man named Jin-soon has been leading people to get food. In a good way, he's got the gun, and in a bad way, he's got the right ball.

Cooperation and dependence are different. I knew the difference exactly, and I remembered once again our party, which had been strong in their respective positions. But for a moment, I thought I was forgetting something, so I raised my head, and soon made eye contact with a man named Jin-soon. His round eyes and friendly face. He looks like Pooh, a bear that looks like a heartwarming shop.

I extended my hand to him.

'Thank you.'

'What?'

'Thanks to you, I can meet my colleagues again. Thank you very much.'

It was really a stroke of luck. Meeting a living person in this vast city was on the hard side. And it was even more difficult to meet someone who helped others. the end of the century, when ethics died, and conscience rotted. This man saved me without any request, and gave me another chance to meet the precious people. I simply don't think I'm lucky. I just wanted to thank him for living as a human being.

'Ah......'

A man named Jin-soon couldn't grab my hand. But as time went by, the gestures of man began to change into the name of goodwill. His lips trembled with his eyes, and soon he stretched out with that thick hand and shook hands.

Relationships are too difficult and simple. Sometimes it ends with a complicated death, and sometimes it starts with a light handshake like this.

I shook the hand slowly up and down.
