I Alone Going To The Tower

Now the work here is over.

If you go out to the safe zone and tell the association staff who should have arrived by now about the progress, and you are guaranteed ownership of the dungeon, your day will be completely successful.

We safely escaped from the cobweb, and we were walking across the dungeonized city, but strangely, we didn't come across a single zombie.

Occasionally, even if we saw people wandering around, we pretended not to see us and headed to another place.

Well. I also need to talk.

Looking back, I saw Jin-Ra holding Eun-Sol's hand and chattering.

"Look."

"Yes, sir."

“I have a story to talk to Sol for a moment.”

"Ok?"

She didn't care much and walked forward and talked with her Jeong Jeong-jin.

For some reason, I wondered if we could talk to each other, but in the end, a fight started with a quarrel. I wonder if there is such a thing as such.

And Eunsol, who was walking side by side with me, was gazing at this side as if being wary. When our eyes met her, I flinched and turned her head.

It looks like he hasn't opened his heart easily except for Jin-Bra.

"Now that zombies don't appear in front of us. Is it because of your abilities?"

“……”

She timidly nodded her head once.

"You were the one who immobilized that giant spider earlier."

She expressed affirmation by moving only her head this time.

I thought for a moment. When Eunsol and I first met, she said:

-But people who come to our village are all bad people, so we have to get them out...

Who would have said this to her?

In fact, if you think about it a little, it's obvious.

The people of Harlem right here.

Presumably, those people must have been living with Eunsol's power as a shield. It is common sense impossible for civilians to stay in one place for a long time without the support of the Association.

It can be simply deduced that Eunsol would have served as a shield against the monster and her outsiders.

'Well, it's good so far... … '

I was looking at her bruised body.

Minor scars are visible on her neck, shoulders, and wrists. It was too sophisticated to be a wound from a monster.

“What do you think of the villagers, Sol-i?”

“……”

Eunsol, who looked hesitantly at my question, answered with an infinitely small voice.

"……family."

… … it's family

I can't seem to get an answer to this question.

I don't like it because it seems like I'm interrogating a child, but let's go out a little harder.

"Sol-ah, you..."

I opened my mouth, which didn't come off easily, and barely let it out.

"Have you ever thought of hurting the villagers?"

She put on a puzzled expression.

Did I hit the peak? Or is it that my question is shocking?

Her pupils shook and her shoulders trembled. She soon let out a sniff from her mouth and began to drip tears like chicken poop.

"Oh, it's your senior! What do you do if you make a child cry?"

Jin-Bra rushed to her and comforted her. I was able to make some assumptions while watching Eunsol crying.

As outsiders, we do not attack, but zombies that only target the villagers. If my assumptions are correct... … .

Eunsol may be a murderer.

* * *

After thinking about this and that, we arrived safely at the safe zone.

Association staff and rescue teams, who arrived a bit late, took control of the scene, treating the wounded and rescuing those who had not yet escaped from the city.

Among them, there were some who had the ability to build something, and the whole city was surrounded by a wall like a fence.

I sat moderately on the bench and watched the rescue operation. Actually, things about Eunsol made my head complicated. The thought continued to expand, biting and biting.

"Senior! Senior!"

Then Jin-Bora ran to her white-washed face.

She had asked her to investigate her Eunsol. I saw earlier that she was talking to the people of Harlem, did she find out something?

"I heard everything!"

She told me a shocking story from a Harlemite who decided to leave the herd.

As expected, the people here were living using Eunsol to block monsters.

And not only did he not inform the association in order not to take away her Eunsol, of course, it is said that he carved obedience deep into his bones to fully control her as a player.

Of course, engraving that obedience would not have been a normal way of education. I don't even want to imagine.

If it ended up to the point where Eunsol was taken advantage of by people, it might be rather fortunate.

A girl talking to a stone.

A child making a grave.

Rumors like that made people disgusted.

A common characteristic of those who wander around unprotected areas is that when it comes to 'another world', they drop their cranes.

All of them had the pain of losing something precious due to the overlay incident.

People who blame the times and curse the times, with all their misfortunes being turned into overlays and their will for rebirth completely broken.

What is Eunsol's existence for people from Harlem?

necessary evil.

terrible monster.

She was treated like that and became the target of her abuse. A young girl who behaves abnormally toward people with a sick mind would have been a good target.

Did she really think of the Harlem people as her family, the girl she had to be abused for so no reason? What if she was accumulating bad feelings? Then, what if this city was turned into a dungeon and zombies appeared?

Coincidentally, her ability was capable of controlling zombies.

"Oh, are you Kim Yoo-shin?"

At that time, a member of the association approached with a smile. I returned Jinbora and talked to him about this incident.

He said, "I heard you're still a student, but your work is better than most pros."

The staff turned over the papers and said.

"Thanks to your quick response, the disaster was averted in advance and the number of casualties was greatly reduced. This record will be a huge bonus for your career going forward."

I bowed my head and expressed my gratitude.

"Thank you. If it's not rude, can I ask how many casualties there are?"

"Sure."

At my question, the staff quickly turned over the documents.

"First of all, there were nine casualties found in the mart that became the den of boss monsters."

The employee who was handing over the documents rechecked the list a few times, then looked at me and smiled.

"Other than that, it's all survival."

A sharp sensation ran through my body.

what now?

Power Survival?

no one died?

"The damage is fairly small for a dungeon phone incident. All thanks to Mr. Kim Yoo-shin."

No, it's not my fault.

It is impossible to cover 100% of the entire city with just three members of the tower. I thought the casualties would be few.

By the way… … .

'… … haha. Me too, really.'

if so.

Eunsol didn't use zombies to attack the people of Harlem.

She was really trying to save everyone, even those who abused her.

why didn't you think

She's seen a lot of people with severe injuries, such as zombies biting her shoulder or losing her leg, but if the monster had gotten that far, she should have died on the spot.

It must have been because of Eunsol that he survived even though he was seriously injured.

'Once you doubt it, there is no end... … .'

I turned my head.

Eunsol, who was talking with Jinbora, met her eyes, and she flinched and hid behind Jinbora's back.

… … I'm sorry about this.

"Now, shall we talk about business?"

A member of the association opened a new document. As if Jeong Jeong-jin was waiting, he came to my side and pushed up his glasses.

"First of all, I want to say congratulations. As a result of the association's research on the ecology of this controlled area, it was determined that it was suitable as a hunting ground."

"That's fortunate."

"Congratulations, Top Lord."

I put my name and signature on the paperwork the paperwork clerk gave me.

"The temporary owner of the hunting ground was Kim Yoo-shin. However, did you know that there are several conditions to become an official owner?"

"Yes, of course."

As the hunting ground is a land where monsters haunt, thorough management and control are required. During the grace period of two weeks, the association directly controls it, but after two weeks, the owner must come up with a control measure and obtain approval from the association.

An employee of the association said that the association owed a great deal of debt, saying that even if it was not, they handled the work well during a turbulent time due to the irregular situation. He gave me a business card and told me to contact me if I needed any help.

You seem to like the way we do our work. Having an acquaintance in the association is a significant harvest. I treasured the business card in my wallet.

"Fufu. It's really great."

Jeong Jeong-jin was looking at the smart phone calculator loudly.

"It is very meaningful to have obtained the 3rd rank hunting ground. If you start rolling in earnest, it will be of great help to the financial situation of the horse tower. The release of potions may be accelerated."

When I heard that money was coming in, I felt really good too.

"How do I manage the hunting grounds? There is a review in two weeks."

"You don't have to worry about that. There are many companies that manage dungeons, so you can choose one and outsource it."

"Yeah, I'll ask the company selection side."

"Leave it to me."

In fact, it was with Eunsol's help that I was able to make a mark on the staff of the association for such a good performance. Because she was able to significantly reduce her casualties thanks to her.

I walked looking for Eunsol.

The people of Harlem who remained in the safe zone were also leaving soon. The city they lived in was judged to be unrecoverable, and it became a 'dungeon phone' where monsters came out, so there is no reason to stay any longer.

I looked around and found Eunsol without difficulty. She sat alone on a bench, staring at the darkening city of zombies.

"Hi."

“……”

As I approached, she shrugged her shoulders as if wary. She did, but luckily she didn't run away.

I sat a bit away from her and spoke to her.

"Why did you help the villagers? Everyone was mean to you."

She stared quietly into space.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

"……just."

"just?"

“Sometimes I was bullied and beaten, but it was all family.”

"...is that so?"

Whatever the abuse or whatever, it means that in the end they were the only ones with this pathetic child.

"I'm sorry. I was suspicious of you earlier."

She smiled brightly as she looked at me with her eyes wide open.

"Strange."

"…?"

"It's the first time I've ever apologized for something like that."

"Sol, where are you?"

Suddenly an unfamiliar voice was heard. The inhabitants of Harlem were approaching us.

Torn clothes, a dirty face, and dead eyes reminiscent of fish in the market stalls.

At first, I felt sorry for them only looking at their appearance, but now they all look like demons.

"Sol."

A middle-aged woman walked out of the group and held out her hand to Eunsol.

"Let's stop now. I've found a new home."

“……”

Eunsol looked at her aunt's hand without saying a word.

"If you're wearing a human mask, shouldn't you have a sense of humor?"

I tried to hold it in, but without realizing it, a sharp voice came out.

crazy garbage.

"You said you abused the child? You want to be safe after that, so are you going to come and pick me up again?"

At my words, the people of Harlem were bewildered and exchanged glances. How did the outsider know? is the reaction

That's when I'm about to say a word again.

good.

Eunsol grabbed her aunt's hand with her bracken-like hand and jumped off her seat.

"Hello, brother."

Then, as if it was natural, he took her aunt's hand and walked away. The residents of Harlem looked at me once, surrounded Eunsol and walked together.

… … After all, is that so?

Aside from all the good and bad feelings, Eunsol had no other choice but them.

She said, 'She says she's following, and she can't just chase it and force it down.'

From acquiring the right to operate the hunting grounds to the connections of the association.

Although the harvest was plentiful, it was a night of deep trouble in many ways.

How am I supposed to move here?
