The Live

“Huff, huff. ”

The applause ran and ran.

I didn't even know the direction. I ran forward, then suddenly turned and ran as deep into the forest as I could.

‘We have to run. ’

I felt scared when I turned my head to look up even though I could breathe under my chin.

Then I have the strength to run again. If we stopped like this, Yoon Jae and Jung could chase us straight behind.

‘You can't die like this. ’

He didn't survive to die like this.

How did you get the chance? ’

The applause was leading those who passed through the red door.

That one herd, that one herd, is the leader of a herd that can build all the others.

It was more excitement than I could have imagined.

You could have drunk anything you wanted, killed anyone. There was no law, there was no order. His actions were like the law.

It was also a world where such abilities were given.

She thought it was a world built for her.

Just like Kim Doo Hyung did.

But…….

Tuk-

“Huff, huff. ”

At the end of the struggle, he leaned back to one side of the tree for a moment and chose to hide.

The applause lowers its head and mutters a few breaths.

“You think... you'll give up like this? ”

The applause's eyes sparkled.

Most of his base was in a collapse.

Even the colleagues who moved together, Kim Doo Hyung and Jeong Yoo held hands.

They're all dead.

All allies die and enemies are made. Yoon Jae and Jeong will continue to kill themselves.

However, I didn't want to give up the applause.

It won't collapse like this. So she was greedy and narrow.

“Those bastards…. ”

Park Seung Soo sharpened her teeth thinking of Yoon Jae and her normal face.

“I'll kill you for sure. ”

Powder-

I twisted my insides and split my teeth.

“Save me... I'll make you beg me not to die." You must……! ”

But I didn't mean to save him.

Without seeing it like that, this twisted judging couldn't be solved.

It was time for the applause to move again.

Grrrrrrr

A familiar cry from somewhere.

Kung-

At the same time, you hear a giant footstep behind the tree.

“This madness……. ”

The applause mutters as she looks at the approaching ogre.

I don't know if it's another monster.

But Ogres are different.

He was a predator of the forest, and the applause was not a beast to be trifled with.

A monster that can only be caught by at least five or six people working together is an ogre.

I encountered such an Ogre by myself.

‘You have to run.... ’

Thought he had to run, but now he's running restlessly.

I was so tired that I couldn't move my legs anymore.

Root-

“Damn……. ”

Again, the clapping clasps his teeth, and the gear draws its sword.

“Yes, damn it! Still... more than those bastards... You're worth it! ”

Rrrrrrrrr

The ogre's expression distorted badly, even if he could understand the words of the applause.

The applause rushes to the ogre first. I was going to squeeze the power out of his eyes.

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

The ogre's cry echoes through the forest.

Along with him, the body of the giant ogre begins to rush towards the applause.

And that was the moment.

Aaaaahhhh!

The applause rushes towards the ogre, his eyes dazzling with the sights before his eyes.

It was an unbelievable scene.

‘Wha... Wha...? ’

The ogre's body splits in half.

Blood spilled everywhere was on the body and face of the applause.

He covers up the sticky, dirty blood, but his applause is just a blank expression.

“Where did you run off to? Were you planning to kill yourself here? ”

Familiar voice.

The eyes of the applause widened like a tear.

“How did you………. ”

“It's weird you can't find it when you're making so much noise. ”

The ogre never screams.

The only time he screamed was when he encountered an enemy or a prey.

The ogre's cry was loud enough for the forest to leave. Of course, I could hear it from afar.

Yoon Jae came after the ogre's cry. If it weren't for that, finding applause in this vast forest would not be so easy.

Until just now, she was thinking about fighting the ogre.

An ogre, a predator of the forest. Thinking about fighting with such an ogre, it meant that the applause was ready.

However, when Yoon Jae appeared and separated the ogre into strikes, the clap couldn't help but think about fighting.

‘I can't win. ’

I could tell without fighting.

How much difference is there between Yoon Jae and him.

It wasn't just intuition.

He saw it with his own eyes. At the hands of his comrades, in an instant.

The corpse of the ogre in front of you proves that, too.

Cutting an Ogre in half with a dagger?

I never thought that would be possible.

I knew enough that I couldn't win even if I didn't have to fight.

“Help... ”

Applause kneels.

If there's a difference between an Ogre and Yoon Jae, he's not a monster.

I can beg for my life.

“I did, I did wrong. The world's changed. I think I'm losing my mind for a second. ”

“ ……. ”

As long as Yoon Jae looked at herself without saying anything, he overlooked the hope that she might be able to live.

“I won't do it again. I promise. Please, just this once... ”

“I'd rather be Kim Doo Hyung. ”

“…… what? ”

He asked again without realizing what Yoon Jae meant.

But he never solved the question.

Clattering -

“I don't want to save your life. Please don't beg for it. ”

Tuk-

Yoon Jae muttered, looking down at the head of the clap who was rolling down his feet.

“…… I feel so shitty killing you guys. ”

* * *

Baslac -

Yoon Jae appeared among the bushes.

Jung, who was sitting among the corpses, stood up as soon as Yoon Jae came back.

“Hello?”

“Yes."

“How did it go? You got it?”

On a regular question, Yoon Jae nodded slightly.

I thought things didn't go well because I didn't have a good look on my face, but I was lucky to catch the guy who ran away.

“But what's wrong with your face? ”

I thought it was a bright face, but it wasn't what I expected.

“This is no laughing matter. ”

Yoon Jae looked around.

“Ah……. ”

The norm was quick to convince.

If you can laugh after killing so many people, that's even weirder.

Since Yoon Jae was not a murderous psychopath, of course.

Just because I did not hesitate, I did not take it for granted.

Even if he had just killed Kim Eun-ji a while ago, Yoon Jae felt nauseous and couldn't do anything.

“I suppose so. ”

Regular people smiled at my reply.

It's weird to smile at this situation.

Yoon Jae took a long breath with a tired expression.

I was more exhausted than my body was tired.

“I'll get the coins first. ”

At Yun Jae's words, the regular nod was small.

Yoon Jae already took the coins that he had. All that was left was the coin that the dead had here.

Personal and achievement points they had.

And coins.

Killing one person is much simpler than killing one ogre. Nevertheless, the rewards that could be obtained were incomparable.

I also felt like I knew why the people who were lying on the ground as corpses were doing so.

With your head.

‘You'll have to get used to this. ’

Yoon Jae suddenly thought, looking at the bodies lying around him, he bit his teeth.

‘I'm used to it... I have to lose?' This? "

I thought they deserved to die.

Nevertheless, the rushing awkwardness was not easily erased.

It wasn't the first time I killed someone. I felt better than when I felt myself for the first time.

But...

“That's... so fucked up. ”

I hated the fact that I had to get used to this.

I confronted the idea of getting used to it and not getting used to it.

Decline -

I had a coin in Kim Doo Hyung's arms.

I took out a bunch of bloodied coins and opened them.

There were quite a few. I can't get it all in one hand.

I didn't know why so many people died. On the other hand, I thought that I was no different from them.

When I collected all the coins, I totaled a little more than 150.

“No, I'm good. ”

Jung gave Yoon Jae the coin he recovered.

“You don't have to keep it. ”

“You take what you kill. ”

“... No. I feel uneasy.”

Killing someone and taking his stuff.

Even that seemed awkward to me.

“I wish it were me. ”

Of course, it was the same with Yoon Jae.

Decline -

However, Yoon Jae tightly gripped the coin on his hand.

“Still... get used to it. ”

In the end, Yoon Jae decided to get used to this.

‘You can't change anything unless I change it. ’

Yun Jae knows herself well.

He wasn't as bitter as he is now. If they didn't know the diary in advance, they might not have acted as they do now.

That you have to kill someone.

Even if it seemed like they deserved to die, it didn't take too long to realize it.

Ever since I saw the diary and believed it was true.

It's been a long time coming.

“ ……. ”

The regular takes a moment to look at the coin on the palm of his hand.

Then he clenched his lip and grabbed his hand.

“Okay."

“Good thinking. ”

Yoon Jae tapped his normal shoulder.

Regular soon smiled again. It was a smile to hide the distorted expression.

“So what do we do now? ”

“What?”

“Nine people died here. ”

Yoon Jae quickly realized what he was going to say.

“You mean the competition? ”

“Yes. Wouldn't it be hard to win? ”

This led to a significant decrease in the number of members of Yoon Jae and his regular team.

There will be a big change in the ranking of individual points.

It was unknown whether those in the new Individual Points rankings would use their powers to earn Team Points as before.

But if they say they're safe, they can outsource earning team points.

Otherwise, it was difficult to reverse the team point differences that were falling behind.

“Well, I'm not worried about that either.... ”

Yoon Jae shrugged and replied.

“What can I do? ”

“What are you going to do? ”

“It's best if you and I get along well. ”

In Yun Jae's answer, he blinked his eyes and asked again.

“Yes?”

At that time, he didn't know what Yoon Jae meant.

Until the next day.
