6 – The next target is the main character
“Huh!”
As soon as the fight was over, Hyena collapsed.
Looking closely, the white blouse was drenched in sweat.
“it’s okay?”
“Yes. I guess I was relieved because I was relieved.”
not a crowd
From when the first zombies appeared until now.
Because I was chased by zombies.
“Rest in peace. You will be safe for a while.”
I said and turned my head.
It’s just that I had work to do.
‘It will take a long time just to read it.’
I sigh when I see countless messages popping up in front of me.
That’s not a bad feeling.
You’ve definitely received the reward for catching the mid-boss.
‘Should I check the status window first?’
I want to properly check the reward I got.
also what effect it has.
‘Status window.’

‘Unexpectedly, nothing has changed much.’
I did get to level 3 once.
The stats were the same as the first.
Normally, it would get stronger as you level up.
There seems to be no such direct effect in this novel.
‘I bet the value of the level isn’t all about restoring health and mana.’
There must be something more secret.
Unfortunately, this information is unknown at this point.
This time, I looked at it as a title.
A place where there was nothing at first.
The ‘Great Forerunner’ obtained this time was added there.
＜List of titles＞
▶Name: Great Pioneer
▶Grade: A
▶Acquisition conditions
-Achieving stage conditions in the early stages
– Direct or indirect impact on 10 or more people
-Saving the life of 1 other person
▶Effect
: Owner’s growth rate and potential increased by 50%.
: 100% increase in reliability of salvation opponent.
‘Hmm, an effect that increases potential?’
It is a little disappointing that there is no direct effect.
Of course, it’s a good enough effect just to grow faster.
Above all, the ‘tentacle monster’ must have been a ‘middle boss’.
‘It means that the real boss is different.’
I can’t even guess what it is.
But it’s more dangerous than tentacle monsters.
You need to be stronger than you are now.
In that sense, a title that increases the level of growth is quite good.
‘In this world, strength is directly related to survival. And to become stronger, you have to use the system.’
I then checked the reward items.
＜Item information＞
▶Name: Essence of the Predator
▶Type: Integer
▶Rating: S
▶Effect: ???
▶Description
: Essence of a predator dropped by a monster.
When used, it settles into the user’s body.
Gives a special effect when completely absorbing essence.
The enchanted effect depends on the user’s potential and characteristics.
‘Oh, is this a raffle?’
It was also a growth type item that came out of the tentacle monster.
Looking at the description, it seems to give some special ability.
This is the kind that takes time to see results.
Are early rewards focused on character growth?
‘Maybe it’s for the main character.’
The mid-boss was a monster that ordinary humans could not deal with.
I only managed to defeat him thanks to my traits, skills, and weapons.
‘It would have been impossible if it wasn’t for the luck that happened several times.’
Originally, if the person who defeated the mid-boss was the main character.
I took away the main character’s opportunity to grow.
‘Well, where can I afford to pursue such a thing? I’m too busy to live.’
That was when I was thinking about it.
“Wow, Jihoon-ah. I got 50 coins! It’s a reward for defeating a monster!”
Yoo Hye-na, who was next to her, shouted.
Hye-na also seems to have been rewarded for her achievements.
50 coins.
Compared to the reward I received, there is too little feeling.
“What is this coin going to be used for? Also what are you buying? I wish I could buy a good weapon!”
Still, it looked good, so I decided to stay still.
There is no need to ruin the joy of survival.
“Jihoon, what did you get? You must have received something much better because you defeated such a monster, right?”
“Well, nothing bad.”
For now, he hid the title and coin story.
However, the ‘Essence of the Predator’ could not be hidden.
‘Because the ‘poisoned dagger’ that killed him was Hye-na’s.’
Even daggers that had exhausted their effects returned to normal weapons.
I’d say it’s a bit stingy to read this all by myself.
I told Hyena about this…
“Of course I think Jihoon should eat it!”
“it’s okay?”
“If it wasn’t for Jihoon, I would have already died. If I had a dagger in my hand, I wouldn’t have been able to fight.”
I was going to save it if I wanted it and think about what to do with it.
Thank you for saying this.
“But then you lost the effect of the only weapon for 50 coins.”
“hehehe, it’s okay. Rather, I’m glad it helped you. Besides, I survived thanks to you!”
Hmm, that’s a bit daunting.
Of course, being trusted isn’t a bad feeling.
‘Well, I’m planning on hanging out with Hye-na for a while, so it’ll be fine.’
I cleared my mind and swallowed the ‘Essence of the Predator’.
I could feel the aura in the stomach.
[You have consumed the growth item ‘Essence of the Predator’!]
[The ‘Essence of a Predator’ dwells in your body!]
“What do you think? Are you getting tiger spirits?”
“I don’t know yet. I guess you need some time.”
On the other hand, what kind of ability will be expected.
Conversely, anxiety
It means that it has no effect until it is digested.
In the meantime, I’ll have to find another way to survive.
Hyena patted her leg.
“Phew, can’t we just hide here?”
“Probably not a good idea.”
I was convinced while defeating the mid-boss.
There is a certain ‘stage’ here.
And when you break it, you get a reward.
‘That must be the core story of this novel.’
As with any apocalyptic novel,
Peace will not come easily in this world either.
Even if you hide, you will only fall behind the story and become weak.
You need to actively intervene in the case.
“Then do you want to go out of school? There may be police or military.”
“wait a minute.”
I decided to use ‘check comments’ before deciding.
Coins are enough thanks to the rewards.
[Use the skill, ‘check comments’!]
[50 coins are consumed as a consumption cost.]
[Do you agree?]
“agreement.”
[Used skill ‘Check Comments’!]
[Currently, there are 4 comment lists available.]
[Please select one comment you would like to see.]
1. The comment with the most characters in episode 4
2. Most upvoted comments in episode 5
3. The first comment in episode 5
4. Comments containing the word ‘hero’ for the first time
‘A comment with a main character?’
A different option has emerged.
Could it be that if I select this, the content about the main character will come out?
‘In my experience, comments that received a lot of recommendations are also attracted, but…’
In the end, I clicked the ‘comment mentioning the main character’ 4 times.
Because this world is definitely a ‘web novel’.
‘It’s national rule that the main character of a web novel monopolizes the Hidden Peace in the beginning.’
I was just thinking about how to move.
Wouldn’t there be good information or items if you follow the main character?
On the one hand, I am genuinely curious.
What kind of person is the main character of this damn novel?
[You selected comment number 4.]
[The content of comment number 4 is as follows.]
[Content: Wasn’t the main character a knight? If you just look at what you’re doing, you’re cheap?]
[Likes: 11, Againsts: 6]
‘Oh, this information sounds pretty useful, right?’
First of all, the main character has a psycho-like personality.
Just looking at this, you can get a rough idea of the style of the work.
More importantly, the preceding sentence.
That the main character is from a ‘knight’.
‘In other words, the main character of this novel is a reincarnated person or possessed person.’
Who was a knight in Korea in the 21st century?
Of course it could be.
But as I said, this is a web novel.
It is more likely that the protagonist is from a different world knight.
‘If he was a knight, he would probably use a sword. It’s likely to be strong too.’
If you look at it like that, the weapon selection time just before must have been a device to make the main character stand out.
All the extras who chose the gun are dying.
The main character who is incomparable with a sword alone in it.
As a reader, it is a scene that fills the mulberry just by listening to it.
‘It’s unfortunate that the extra could have been me.’
Anyway, I got information about the main character.
The problem is how to identify the main character with this.
“Ji, Jihoon.”
“Sorry, I have something to think about right now.”
He is a reincarnated protagonist who is good at using a sword.
Can you find a person based on these characteristics alone?
At least I wish I knew where I live.
“Hey, I’m sorry…but I think I need to see this…”
“Well?”
Hyena carefully pulled my sleeve.
It was only then that I stopped thinking and looked in the direction it was pointing.
“……What is that?”
playground outside the window.
There, there was a man wielding a knife at dozens of zombies alone.
Unusual knife skills.
Zombies that get cut down every time you swing them.
At a glance, I could see that it was not unusual.
It’s not just about fighting well.
“It’s awesome…….”
Hyena muttered involuntarily.
I nodded as if I agreed.
“Yeah, that’s great.”
I never thought the main character would be a student at our school.
……Then what are the 1st and 2nd places who caught the mid-boss faster than me?
