125 – Or, to those who resist it
“-Game?”
“Okay. Game. “It’s also a roguelike genre.”
Sang-hoon looked around, clicked his tongue, and continued his words while glaring at the monster crawling in front of them.
“What is that?”
“Heroes don’t even play games. Well, you can just roughly explore the dungeon and think that if you die, you lose everything.”
“It’s not much different from now.”
“It’s even worse. There is no restart here? “If you lose, it’s over.”
A monster crawling on the floor and looking around approaches where they are,
Sisisisisisi-
“Damn it. They made it exactly the same damn way. Doesn’t that b*tch stay in her base all the time and just play games instead of doing missionary work? Or did you read my memories again?”
On the contrary, when I saw the monster that resembled a centipede, I just clicked my tongue and shook my head. He didn’t react in any way.
Of course, now they-
“…Is it okay to talk like this?”
“I can’t hear that sound. Besides, my field of vision is narrow, so it doesn’t matter. Actually, it was half a gamble, but-“
I was standing on the red platform and watching the centipede from right above.
“…It looks like it was a complete success, judging by the way it passed by.”
“Man, how long do I have to do this?”
“Are you having a hard time?”
“I’m a little… Tired.”
“But please hold on just a little longer. “I think he’ll pass by soon anyway.”
Suah is whining and has her eyes half closed, probably because she has been using her powers too much since before, but she nods at Sanghoon’s request and somehow manages to open her eyes.
So they waited in the air for him to pass by, and when he finally turned the corner and disappeared from sight, they jumped down.
“I’m sleepy…”
“Oh no. “Get some sleep.”
Sang-hoon, who was carrying the whining Su-ah on his back and laughing and glaring at the corner of the road where she disappeared, sighed deeply as soon as he fell asleep, probably from exhaustion.
“…Are you okay? “It’s okay to say this, but honestly, isn’t that kid responsible for 80% of our strength?”
“Roughly speaking. “If the bastards who are difficult to deal with come, I’ll wake them up again.”
In the game, it was better to encounter random mobs, but it was difficult to encounter monsters and mid-bosses. In reality, it’s completely the opposite.

“Okay then, shall we chase after you?”
“…What?”
“Huh? What?”
Thinking like that, Sang-hoon tried to follow the monster, and Hero looked at him like that and asked back as if he was dumbfounded.
“No, why are you going to a place where there are monsters? In times like this, rather-“
“We must go in the opposite direction. “It’s not unreasonable to think so, but now we have to follow that guy?”
Sang-hoon was smiling mischievously as he pointed at his cell phone, but his eyes didn’t seem to lie at all.
“Are you serious?”
“I’m serious. “I think we can find our comrades if we follow that path.”
When he followed the GPS and encountered it, he was rightly embarrassed to see that it was a monster. Since he saw the monster and ran away, it is normal for him to feel that he must now avoid the red dot.
But if you think about it the other way around – there are only two actions that Repentance’s villains can take after identifying those monsters.
“You either move towards the goal that looks suspicious just by looking at it, or you think of the guys approaching the monsters and move to join them. In my opinion, I don’t know about the others, but Priest is the latter.”
Most guys who are confident in their own strength will head to the goal – unfortunately, there are no guys stupid enough to rush alone in Repentance.
Most of them will try to join their colleagues somehow, and if so, they will move to meet the villains who are chasing these monsters, which are their only clue.
“…Rather, since they will inevitably encounter monsters at least once, does this mean that they will target those who move towards monsters like themselves?”
“Because there are no other clues.”
“Huh, you’re crazy.”
“It’s crazy, but it’s better than just heading there, right?”
If you head to the goal in the game, you will immediately fight the boss and then clear it, but unfortunately, this is not just a world in a game. Rather, it is reality.
The one who created this place is Dream Eater, so the final boss waiting in the rose vines rising high is Dream Eater.
“Or, do you want to go alone and face a 100% sincere Dream Eater?”
“Go quickly. I’m going to miss the monster.”
“Wow, the attitude change is really fast.”
I wonder if the monster is already moving forward to some extent.
Sanghoon continued to check the GPS and moved forward, and Hero began to follow him.
“What are you going to do if you get caught or encounter other monsters while following behind like this?”
“At that time, you have to fight or stand out.”
“…Hmm? “Can you defeat those monsters?”
“You can kill me, right? “It is the worst and final method.”
At least, if this is a place created to imitate a game, the game and rules will be somewhat similar.
“But, you can kill them, but if you do, it becomes difficult. “We’re not in charge of managing achievements, so there’s no need to fight.”
“…Why?”
“If you kill them, new ones appear, and they are even more disgusting and stronger than before. Well, it looks like the monsters haven’t died yet – huh?”
It is common knowledge that if you kill monsters, other monsters will appear. However, the problem is that it is common knowledge only to those who have played the game.
“What the f*ck. “Why aren’t there two?”
Two dots suddenly disappeared from the map, which had clearly been displayed fine just a moment ago.
“…Maybe someone else killed him?”
“Whoa. “There is a possibility of that happening.”
“Is it okay to be so carefree? Just a moment ago, even more disgusting bastards were coming out-“
“If you don’t kill at least three, no new ones will come out. Still, it’s dangerous if a new one pops up, but it’s better than not having four of them die… Let’s see-“
When Sang-hoon enlarges the map, two red dots floating around inside this maze appear.
“We’re chasing one, and the other is coming near here, so I think it’ll be okay as long as one of them doesn’t die, right?”
“…Wait a minute, what did you just say?”
“Huh? “We are chasing-”
“No, not that. “There’s one coming around here?”
“…Uh. Why?”
Sanghoon nods his head and answers the hero who asks if he heard wrong.
“-They’re coming here?”
“…Why don’t you have eyes? Just look at it and you can see it’s coming. Up here-“
There is no risk of being attacked even if you come close. Since you’re coming from a place other than this road, it doesn’t really matter even if it’s nearby because it’s blocked by a wall, right? Why are you saying such things even though you are seeing it with your own two eyes?
Sang-hoon looked at him curiously, but Hero just looked at his map with a stern expression.
“If I’m not mistaken, it looks like it’s coming through the wall.”
“Hah? What bullsh*t. Do you think it’s that easy to break through a wall? At least he couldn’t break through the wall. To break through this, you have to be at least as crazy as that b*tch to barely-“
Sanghoon, who checked the map again at Hero’s words, couldn’t help but frown like Hero.
“-f*ck.”
Displayed on the map are numerous maze walls and red dots.
But just now, even though it was clearly a wall, I saw it breaking through and coming this way. And-
“…You said other villains were chasing the monster, right?”
“…Okay.”
“What are the chances of those guys being caught and chased by monsters?”
“Uh… 99%?”
Just like those who are now chasing after the monster in search of their comrades, the other Repentance villains had the same thought – if they were caught by the monster and were running away.
“Soo-ya.”
“Ugh? “Why?”
“Wake up. “We’re screwed.”
The judgment of the situation was quick. Sang-hoon immediately woke up Su-ah, and Hero prepared to fight, holding the baton that had been broken in half in each hand.
Thump. Thud. Thud.
As the red dot on the map gradually gets closer, a roaring sound and vibration reverberate. And-
“Hey f*ck! How long do I have to run away from this?!”
“It seems like there’s a monster ahead, what should I do?!”
“I don’t know! Just run first! Or break it!”
“Breaking it won’t give you the answer! “You idiot-!”
There are many different voices, but even one urgent conversation is shared by the same four people.
The sound of footsteps getting closer and a loud vibration that makes you not know what is coming. And finally-
“Overdrive!”
Grrrgh!
“-Huh?”
“-Huh?!”
The wall next to where the mourners were standing was burning, and they checked each other.
Sisisisisisisi-
“Catch it… And eat it!”
In front, there is a centipede monster that seems to have noticed something strange due to the vibration and is turning around and coming towards us. And behind them, a bizarre monster was chasing Eunji.
Sang-hoon’s gaze, full of confusion and worry, and Eun-ji’s gaze, who seemed to have decided something after finally confirming the centipede monster, intersected.
The moment Su-ah, who was riding on Sang-hoon’s back, had just woken up from sleep, realized that they were in danger –
“-Stop!”
“Burning.”
“Blood Spear.”
Eun-ji turned around and stretched out her hand toward the monster, probably thinking they had different meanings, and the blood soared into the air and hardened with the sound of glass breaking.
Sang-hoon screamed at them to stop, cutting both forwards and backwards, but Eun-ji had already increased her firepower a long time ago, and Su-a was swinging her hands after creating numerous spears.
Bubbbubbuk!
At the same time, the red spears pierced the centipede’s body in an instant.
“Overdrive.”
Eunji completely burned the monster’s body.
“Kikigigeek-“
“Death… Huh?”
Two monsters were sorted out in an instant. And Sang-hoon and In-jun are shocked as they look at the monsters.
“What the f*ck-“
As Injun cursed and grabbed his head, Sanghoon instinctively looked at his phone and-
“-Really… I’m screwed.”
It is also a problem for three monsters to die, but in a situation where as many as four have died.
Numerous red dots began to appear simultaneously on the map.

“…Mr. Hangyeol.”
“Yes?”
“Isn’t it strange? Suddenly there was a vibration-“
Han-gyeol is sitting down and resting in front of the monster’s corpse, and Yu-mi is trembling and looking around as if something is strange.
“…Now that I think about it.”
Feeling strange about the suddenly shaking ground, Hangyeol got up and looked behind her, and Yumi moved her finger to check her cell phone –
“Huh?”
“Huh?”
They both let out a sigh-like sound at the same time and opened their eyes wide.
“…Yumi.”
“Mr. Hangyeol. Look at this. Suddenly a red dot-“
“Yumi!”
“Huh, huh? Why?”
Yumi was startled by Hangyeol’s voice calling her in a hurry and looked at her. Then, she turned her gaze towards the direction that Hangyeol was looking at –
“Shishishishishishish-“
“I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it! I found it!”
“Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!Kill!”
As soon as she finally saw that numerous monsters were coming, she straightened up.
