The Live

Jubbuck-

Yoon Jae came out of the black door side by side.

There were quite a lot of people in the vacancy.

Monsters appear frequently in the forest inside the Black Gate, so I can't rest properly.

Besides, as the night went deeper, it was even more dangerous because we didn't know when or where monsters would come from.

In order to be safe, the people who had gathered in the vacant lot were cured shortly after the sun went down.

Yoon Jae and Jeong are almost the last ones to appear.

“Ha. Still a pity, though. That Gobble... ”

“Shh.”

Yoon Jae gagged at the normal murmur.

The existence of the Golden Goblin was a secret. Knowing he was there might have been an opponent.

Of course, no one will know what a golden Goblin looks like.

But there is a tentacle.

Especially since there wasn't very few people who caught the golden Goblins according to the diary, there was nothing wrong with being careful.

“Urgh, ugh! ”

Regular Jae shouted with his eyes wide open because he could not escape Yoon Jae's grip.

Then, Yoon Jae empowered his eyes to face normal.

- Don't say anything.

In his eyes, the regular nod.

“Puha.”

When the hand that was blocking my mouth fell off, the regular man breathed heavily. After that, there was no other word.

Yoon Jae, who blocked his regular mouth, sat in an empty seat, avoiding the crowd that was gathering for three or three days.

People's gazes were naturally gathering with Yoon Jae and regular people.

The previous day's offer made Yoon Jae the most notable person in this room.

He was the leading individual in the rankings and sacrificed himself (?) and showed the heroic image of saving everyone.

Of course, that's what made Yun Jae confuse him.

‘There are fewer of them. ’

I see empty numbers everywhere. There were now four groups of five or six.

Maybe he died fighting the monsters.

"No."

Yoon Jae, who looked at each group, realized that the number was insufficient.

‘... Not enough. ’

The group that was originally gathered was ten, except for Yoon Jae and the regular group.

Kim Do Hyung and Jeong Yu.

The crowd that passed through the red door.

The horde that passed through the white door.

And the group that passed through the blue door was eight.

However, there were only eight groups of people who could see Yoon Jae.

"Why are they...? ’

Yoon Jae's eyes saw Kim Doo Hyung and Jeong Yu Ra, and a clap through the red door and Lee Jae An, who were gathered with them.

Why are they all here?

I didn't know who approached me first. However, Yoon Jae, who had been reluctant to Kim Doo Hyung for a long time, came to me unhappy.

‘They're not the only ones. ’

Kim Doo Hyung and Jeong Yu Ra, let's say they joined the clap.

The problem is that one group is missing besides them.

You're not back yet? ’

Yoon Jae sits down with Kim Doo Hyung, looking at the group.

Just in case.

Hunting until the end, maybe he hasn't come back yet to earn his personal points.

That's how time passed.

But...

They never came back.

[Tutorial Phase 4, Day 2 has ended.]

[Calculate each person's team points and individual points.]

Day 2 ended eventually.

A herd.

Phase 3 of the tutorial, a whole swarm of people who passed through the blue door together disappeared.

[Team Points]

[1st Place: Kim Yun-jae? 4,250p]

[2nd Place: Normal? 2,050p]

[3rd place: Kim Myeong-Hak? 1,000 p]

[……]

[46th Place: Kim Du-hyung? 0p]

[Total: 41,300p]

[Personal Points]

[1st Place: Kim Yun-jae? 28,280p]

[2nd Place: Kim Du-hyung? 19,490p]

[3rd Place: Normal? 15,880p]

[4th place: ……]

[Enemy team's team points are 69,150p.]

[You will now be rewarded for your personal points.]

[Calculate the individual points of Kim Yun Jae.]

[Get 16 Coins.]

[1 random stat point is awarded.]

[Physical Resistance +1.]

The next statistic made Yoon Jae's eyes glaze down.

“What, what is this? ”

“Zero points?”

“It's... different, isn't it? ”

I was wandering around.

Most people fulfilled their promised points.

1,000 points per person.

In order to get it, some people even moved without time to get personal points.

By the way.

There was someone who didn't keep that promise.

And they were mostly ranked high on their own personal points.

Jubbuck-

At that time, Yoon Jae moved on.

Towards the group with Kim Do Hyung and Jeong Yu Ra.

Kim Doo Hyung and Jung Yura, Park Seung-soo, and Lee Jae-eon looked at Yoon Jae like that.

“What happened? ”

Yoon Jae asked, looking at Kim Doo Hyung.

The person who was most conscious of Yoon Jae was Kim Doo Hyung.

In addition, the person who responded most negatively to Yoon Jae's suggestion was Kim Doo Hyung.

“What is it? ”

When Yoon Jae asked, Kim Doo Hyung asked with a stiff voice.

The wrinkles of Yoon Jae that naturally appeared in his eyes became deeper.

“Don't you know? ”

“I really don't know. ”

“Why didn't you keep your promise? ”

“Promise?”

Kim Doo Hyung pretended to be a little worried, and replied as if he had just remembered.

“Ah, you mean Team Points. ”

“Are you kidding me? ”

Kim Doo-hyung clearly replied.

I would like to fill in my individual quota of team points, like everyone else's opinion here.

However, Kim did not keep that promise. Not just him, but everyone who is with him now.

“Don't take it so hard. I'll drive it later and fill it all up at once. ”

“Driving?”

“Yes. 1,000 points a day. As promised, we just need to fill in 4,000 points by the last day. ”

Kim said that and looked around.

“It's kind of unfair, actually. Neither am I, and neither are the rest of us, and we're not tied to team points, so there's no problem. ”

“So you're going to score points on the last day? ”

“Yes."

“On the last day, if the points difference is narrowed, the opponent's team will also make every effort to earn team points. Didn't you think of that? ”

“That's none of our business. ”

I'm not wrong.

It's clear that most of the people gathered here, including Kim Doo Hyung, can survive even if they don't win the team competition.

Those who passed through the red door were much more skilled and ranked that high than those who passed through the blue door.

But…….

“At least one person here would know. ”

Yoon Jae glances at the crowd with narrowed eyes.

One of them ducked down, avoiding Yoon Jae's gaze.

“I knew it.”

There are only ten people who can survive the team's defeat.

As long as Yoon Jae is with normal people, at least one of the nine people here will die.

“Even if you don't think everyone here is on the same team, do you want to let the people you're traveling with die? ”

“Good boy to the end. ”

Tsk.

Kim Doo Hyung spit out the spit in his mouth on the floor.

It's as if it's dirty.

“That's none of your business. This is too much. I could really die over and over again. ”

“... Really? ”

At that moment, Yoon Jae's eyes flashed white.

“Then kill him. ”

Following Yoon Jae's words, the regular person grabbed his shoulder and dragged him back.

“Dude, what's going on? ”

The normal question was small.

There were nine of them, including Kim Du-hyung and Jeong Yu.

It was not that I was incompetent, only those who passed through the red door.

Confronting them right now is not a good choice. Above all, there were only two regular and Yoon Jae.

“Think about it. I know he didn't keep his promises, but he's not wrong, is he? We have no right to force them to cooperate. ”

He didn't understand why Yoon Jae was so excited.

It was true that Kim Doo Hyung didn't keep his promise.

But if it was bad enough to point a knife at each other, it wasn't.

As Kim Doo Hyung said, he can't force Yoon Jae to cooperate with them as much as he can with his team points.

That's a threat, not a demand.

Besides, even that threat didn't work now.

Kim Doo Hyung had grown up to be a big person with claps and Lee Jae-eun.

If they all draw their swords towards Yoon Jae, the situation becomes very complicated.

“What are you two whispering about? ”

Kim Du-hyung got up from his seat smiling.

“Kill me? Come on, yeah. I'm going to die... ”

“Enough.”

A round of applause stopped Kim Doo Hyung from getting up at that time.

“That's far enough. ”

“Why are we stopping them? ”

“Are you really going to stab me? Unless you made a promise in the first place, it's our fault you didn't keep it. Let's give up and walk away from each other now. ”

After saying that, she looked back at Yoon Jae.

“I'll make sure this one doesn't fill the quota by the end of the day. But I need you to think about our situation. The more important thing to us is the personal point. ”

“ ……. ”

Yoon Jae looked at her eyes for a moment.

Then he stared at Kim Doo Hyung in the back, and turned around.

Normally, he sighed for relief and followed behind Yoon Jae.

Kim Doo Hyung's eyes lit up.

“What are you doing? ”

Kim Du-hyung's voice growled.

He was even thinking about killing Yoon Jae here. I can't do better than that if I can get rid of Yun Jae who has been annoying me for a long time.

However, I stopped the applause, thinking it was a one-sided opportunity.

“We need to get rid of them so we can all live. You wouldn't know. ”

“I know. And for that, we held hands. ”

In order for all nine people here to live, one of them had to disappear, Yoon Jae and Jung.

That way they can all live whether they win or lose a team competition.

Kim Du-hyung told them the truth and suggested that we hold hands with them.

Not only can they both live by killing Yoon Jae and the regular, but they can also take away the coins obtained by both of them.

But…….

“Think about it. What will happen if we fight them now? ”

“What?"

“We have abandoned our team and chosen individual points. And they're trying to save everyone, even in situations where they can only earn individual points. ”

Kim Doo-hyung was able to understand why he stopped himself.

“...... That means we're the bad guys. ”

“Yes. If we'd fought them now, the others would have put their swords on us. We're the bad guys now. ”

“Then that guy... ”

“Maybe you knew that. ”

Park Seong-soo looked back at Yoon Jae who had walked a long way.

“Looks like he's not the best seller. Your head's working just fine. ”

Yoon Jae didn't fight Kim Doo Hyung without thinking.

If Kim Doo Hyung went over there and swung his sword at Yun Jae's provocation, the fight wouldn't have been between Kim Doo Hyung and Yun Jae.

It is most likely a battle between the nine who did not meet their quota and the rest.

“Then what do we do? ”

In the beginning, their goal was to kill Yoon Jae and the regular.

That way they can all live and take the coin.

However, if it became an environment that could not be fought in the first place, it could not be fulfilled.

“Don't think too fast. ”

He smiled small, looking at Kim Doo Hyung, who froze his face.

He glanced at all the people gathered in the vacant lot.

“They don't have to go first, right? ”

* * *

“Dude, seriously, what's going on? ”

“What?”

“Did you really intend to fight there? What should I do...? ”

“They'll bump into each other one day. ”

Yoon Jae's eyes said that were so fierce that he could not speak more normally.

“If you do, you might as well hit it fast. ”

“Brother……. ”

Regular people sighed deeply.

“But this isn't it. As I said before, we can't force them to cooperate. ”

“I know. ”

“Then why……. ”

“It doesn't matter if it's quiet. ”

“What the hell does that mean? ”

The regular expression was frustrating.

I don't care if it's quiet. Does that mean something's going to happen to them?

‘Kim Doo Hyung is also a problem.... ’

Yoon Jae turned his head and looked at the applause talking to Kim Doo Hyung.

‘The real problem is him. ’

Applause.

He was acting like a leader among the crowd that passed through the red door.

And…….

[The first killing to take the coin came from the herd that went through the red door.

They were too strong for the others. One, two, three, or three or four.

If they didn't crave coins and focused on earning team points…….

Everyone who was there might have survived without dying.]

Applause.

He and the group he was traveling with committed murder in order to obtain coins.

The outside world is an outlaw zone. Murder has been a frequent occurrence since Tutorial Phase 2.

However, step 4 of the tutorial was the main goal of winning the team competition.

And to do that, you just have to stop the division from happening inside the team.

‘If you lose the competition, you didn't have to work this hard. ’

To do that, applause must always be vigilant.

It was not a bad thing for Kim to join the clap.

If not, I was caring about both of them, because they had one less group to hold hands and care about.

‘There is only one herd missing. ’

A whole herd gone.

Yun Jae already knew where they went.

‘As it is written in the diary...... They must have done something. ’

What the applause and the crowd wanted was the personal points that other people had and the coins they had.

In the diary, it was documented that they committed a murder to steal coins and personal points, and one group disappeared in time.

Yoon Jae changed the past and the future was twisted, but the case seemed unchanged.

‘So, what should I do...? ’

The case has already happened.

In order to win the team competition, we must avoid any fewer people here.

To do so, the clapping and Kim Doo-hyung Group must be vigilant.

What you want is your personal points and coins, right? ’

Thinking of something, Yoon Jae scratched his head as if it were difficult.

‘It might be a bit dangerous……. ’

“What makes you think that? ”

Suddenly, the normal person was anxious and asked.

Then Yoon Jae thought for a moment and asked.

“What about you? ”

“Yes?”

“With me, it's going to be pretty dangerous. ”

“That's it. When was it safe...? ”

“Maybe we should kill people, not monsters. ”

“Yes, yes? ”

My normal eyes curled up.

Then Yoon Jae said in a smaller voice.

“Listen and think. From now on……. ”
