26 – The Sleeping Man at R’lyeh (3)

“Wow… It’s hard to follow.”

After barely clearing the game, I muttered while stretching.

I figured out why there was no one in multiplayer.

Sometimes, when it is difficult, the desire to challenge disappears.

The gimmick of going back to the beginning of a game like anti-Xri is just annoying, but if you play it, you can break it somehow.

However, this game put all sorts of gimmicks that can upset people, as if it had ruined all the commercial morals.

If you die, start again from the beginning, luck, evasion impossible, etc. If you didn’t have a SAN level like mine, all of them were just elements that would be folded in stage 2.

– It was fun…It was.

After barely waking up, it’s already 2:00 AM.

Getting some sleep will be good for my mental health.

‘Because SAN levels cannot recover naturally.’

With the power of the Constellation, my body transcended all physiological phenomena.

I didn’t have to sleep, I didn’t have to eat, I didn’t have to go to the bathroom.

Even if I didn’t breathe, it didn’t matter.

However, the recovery of the SAN level means the resolution of mental fatigue, and for that, sleep is semi-essential.

It’s a simple story.

There are many ways to recover from mental fatigue. How to eat delicious food, go on a trip, or play with friends.

However, sleep differs from the above methods in simplicity.

The above methods create inconveniences such as buying food, moving a lot while traveling, gathering people and finding places to play.

On the other hand, how comfortable is sleep because you just need to lie in bed and close your eyes?

Look at Ktuga and Nyarlathotep, who don’t even need to sleep, taking a nap because they’re bored.

Sleep is the best recovery method recognized even by the gods.

“I’ll stop here for today and turn it off.”

-Bu, Bee… No Ah, okay. I’ll go now…

Cthulhu stuttered regretfully, but he couldn’t help it.

‘I entrusted the painting for too long.’

Still, I’m the father, isn’t it a bit like letting it go for so long?

I have to sleep, I have to take care of my children, and I have a lot of work to do.

It’s fortunate that I don’t have to train anymore.

The ring.

When I left the chat room and turned off the computer, the room felt too dark.

Click.

“Wow!”

I thought I’d played the game for too long without turning on the lights, so when I turned on the lights, Yehwa spread her arms wide as if to startle me on the bed.

‘?’

Why is Yehwa here?

Surprised, I hurriedly opened the door and looked out into the living room.

-…

– Ugh…

There lay Nyarlathotep and Ktuga lying with their eyes open.

‘Damn it.’

Did you get hit by a child’s overwhelming physical strength?

“Yehwa, let’s go to sleep.”

“Hey?”

I broke into a cold sweat and spoke in a trembling voice, but Yehwa tilted her head as if she didn’t understand.

‘Ah, you don’t know what sleep is!’

For Yehwa, who was only one day old, the concept of sleep was no different from a fiction she had never experienced before.

Because she is a child of God, she doesn’t go through the physiological reactions of a human like me, so she doesn’t experience ‘drowsiness’.

“If you lay down next to your dad and close your eyes, that’s sleeping.”

“Not funny!”

Of course it must be no fun. I’m not sleepy, but is there anything less fun than being forced to sleep?

But it was a story that didn’t work for people like us.

Because unlike normal people, we can precisely control our sleep.

It was said that if you promise to go to sleep now and wake up exactly at 7:00 AM, you can really wake up at a set time.

“Yehwa, can I tell you something interesting?”

“What?”

“If you sleep with your eyes closed next to your father, will the sun rise outside when you wake up?”

“Really?!”

Of course.

Since I was unconscious until morning, the sun must have risen outside.

But for Yehwa, who doesn’t know the concept of sleep, it must be a situation where the sun is up even though she just blinked.

‘I have to train them.’

It’s convenient now, but I’ll have to ask Nyarlathotep to train him.

You might say that it’s too harsh for the first day after birth, but it can’t be helped.

Who would think that face is a one-day-old baby?

It’s hard.

I turned off the light and went to bed, and Yehwa lay down next to me and hugged me tightly.

It felt cramped maybe because it was a single bed, but it wasn’t that uncomfortable because it was the size of a child.

‘Wake up at 7… And go to the academy.’

After perfectly calculating the time, I hugged the child and fell asleep.

Wow.

I can’t even hear my cell phone ringing.

[Notice to all citizens of the proud Republic of Korea.

South Korea is currently being attacked by a mysterious group.

As it may harm our precious people, we ask the public to abide by the following rules.

1. Never go outside from now on.

Currently, death lurks outside.

If you go outside, the government cannot guarantee your survival, so please do not go outside.

2. Don’t answer outside noises.

If you hold your breath inside the house, you may hear a voice calling you from outside.

But never answer. It’s just letting you know you’re inside.

If you hear a sound from outside, don’t touch anything inside the house for 1 hour.

It doesn’t matter whether the light is on or not. Stay that way.

3. Heroes below Class C will be normal people from now on.

From noble mtl dot com

We have decided that we don’t need heroes below C rank in the current situation.

Until the situation is over, heroes below C-class will be treated as ordinary people and will be treated the same.

4. Believe in your religion.

Religion will do more than just support you in this situation.

If you can’t trust humans, trust God.

5. Don’t look at the water.

Do not drink water until this situation is over.

In any case, you should not look at pure water.

Other types of water are fine.

A mixture of tea, soda, etc. Is fine.

Do not see or drink pure water that is only for human consumption.

I am sorry to the people who do not have the means to ingest unexpected moisture such as pure water.

6. If the person you are with is unfamiliar, please shout a slogan.

While enduring the situation, the person you are with may suddenly seem unfamiliar.

In that case, try saying ‘fakes’.

It is unbearable to hear the above.

If it reacts violently, you too must make a decision.

7. Don’t believe number 6.

That slogan might give them strength.

This is a ruse of a mysterious organization, so don’t follow it.

8. Don’t open the windows.

It may be frustrating, but you should never open the window.

A window can also be a door.

9. You should periodically check the TV to watch the news.

In situations like this, information is paramount.

Gather as much information as possible before the power supply may stop soon.

10. Bow 3 times a day to the east, west, south and north respectively.

This is the direction the person is sleeping.

11. Don’t make calls.

The recipient may not be someone you know.

12. The government does not provide relief goods.

So don’t open the door.

13. Never mind if something breaks into your house.

Even if you follow all of the above rules, something might get into your house.

But don’t mind that. You are safe as long as you are inside your home.

However, if the creature that entered is something resembling a fish or octopus, open the door immediately and run outside.

I’d rather have a better chance of surviving.

14. Don’t be afraid of the villains.

Currently, most of South Korea’s villain organizations have been killed by mysterious groups.

If there are entities calling themselves the Villain Organization and trying to break into your house, don’t worry, most of them are normal people.

But keep an eye out for what will happen to the intruders after that, as it may come as a shock to you.

15. Fear the Heroes.

The same thing as number 6 could happen to the heroes fighting on the front lines with them.

From that moment on, heroes are not your allies, so please be careful.

16. Don’t be too afraid of this situation now.

It is true that this is a dangerous situation, but it will pass without problems if you stay at home and stay safe.

So don’t be overly afraid of this situation.

They feed on your fears.

17. Do not ignore the above rules.

The current situation is real, not false.

The government of the Republic of Korea never tells lies, no matter what the circumstances, and is working hard for the safety of the people.

Never disregard the above rules, no matter what, no matter what you say, no matter how disturbing your heart is.

Never, never, never, never, no matter what.]
