crazy
Chi profit.
Appetite-stimulating sounds resonate from the meat on the grill.
It wasn’t a particularly famous restaurant, and the meat wasn’t of good quality, but the party didn’t say anything and silently picked up the grilled meat and put it into their mouths repeatedly. The party, who had been engrossed in eating for a long time, put down their chopsticks at the same time as if they had made an appointment.
“Whoa. It’s been a while since I’ve had a full meal.”
“Korean BBQ. It’s the best.”
“Can I have dessert?”
Yoosung smiled bitterly at the sight of the party looking through the menu like lightning, scaring them to nod.
A reality that has completely changed since the appearance of monsters.
Yuseong, who spent most of his time in a different world or lived in a hospital when he was on Earth, or had a decent daily life with the help of kind-hearted neighbors, was able to indirectly guess how hard ordinary people’s lives were by looking at them.
After a fierce meal reminiscent of a battle, Seo Chang-hoon’s mouth finally opened.
“I don’t think he helped much, but it’s really embarrassing to receive money and even eat.”
“If you didn’t catch the Orcs, we wouldn’t have been able to catch them. Money is only keeping promises, and Bob doesn’t do much, so there’s no need to feel pressured.”
“So is he. You have to earn a lot of money to feel the burden of buying one meal! Hahaha!”
57 billion.
As promised, even if 10% is distributed to three people, a whopping 39.9 billion won remains.
Of course, if you calculate taxes and fees, the actual money left over will be less than that, but the fact that you earned astronomical money doesn’t change.
“·······.”
Yooseong, who inadvertently turned on his smartphone to check his account, opened his eyes narrowly.
I could see how happy I was when I received 5.7 billion won, so I pretended to be moderately happy, but to be honest, to be honest, I didn’t feel any special emotions.
Of course, if you had to choose between ‘like’ and ‘dislike’, it would of course be ‘like’.
However, when asked if it was something to be excited about, as the group did, it was vague to answer.
‘Would it have made a difference if the amount had been lower, or if it had been a little more realistic?’
No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t think so.
I was able to instinctively realize that although the proportion of ‘good’ would change depending on the amount, there would be no more emotions than that.
“…That, aren’t you happy?”
“Are you happy?”
“Is that so? I guess he wasn’t very happy because he seemed calm.”
“I’m glad. It’s just that the amount is so big that I’m a bit embarrassed.”
“It’s a decent amount. But the more money you spend, the more you’ll realize it. Why don’t you buy your parents a present?”
“Both of my parents are dead.”
Seo Chang-hoon’s smiling face froze at a casual word, and Rogers and Lee Ha-young moved their seats to the side.
‘I don’t have to be very sorry.’
I don’t know what the three of them were thinking, but Yooseong didn’t have any particular thoughts.
It’s been quite a while since my parents passed away, and I didn’t have a bad personality enough to get angry at something I did accidentally, not intentionally.
Rather, if I had to say that it was an angular part, it was more than the death of my parents…
“What are you going to do in the future? I think I can do anything with money.”
It is not good to think more than this.
It was a blatant change of topic from anyone’s point of view, but Seo Chang-hoon sighed in relief and opened his mouth, probably thinking that Yoo-seong was being considerate.
“I… No, we decided to create a guild.”
Guild.
It was not an officially defined or popular word, but just hearing the name gave a rough idea of its purpose and meaning.
“I’ve been thinking a lot today. Fortunately, thanks to your help, we learned how to deal with monsters and made an unsuitable amount of money. I could have suffered.”
Seo Chang-hoon continued talking with a determined expression instead of the dumb expression he had shown so far.
“I’m thinking of creating such a guild that can help others avoid such terrible things and protect people from powerful monsters.”
“That’s Mr. Changhoon, but the two of you too? Rogers, you said your goal was to earn a living before going back to the States?”
“Looking at New Tube, the situation in our country seems to be very bad, so I plan to stay in Korea and watch it for a while, but what are you doing to help this man?”
“Hayoung? Didn’t you say fighting monsters was scary?”
“I’m not afraid because I have 5.7 billion won in my bank account. I have to earn it while I can.”
“Poop.”
Seo Chang-hoon asked with his eyes shining at the appearance of Yoo-seong bursting into a small smile.
“If it’s alright, wouldn’t you join us as well? It’s just that we’re a little anxious. If there’s a strong person like you…”
“No. I have no idea.”
“Hmmmm. I told you. Why would a person who has earned tens of millions of dollars want to suffer because of regret?”
“No, it’s not about money. I can’t tell you, but I don’t think we’ll be together for other reasons.”
The fact that I belong somewhere is not particularly objectionable.
However, due to the nature of the user who has to cross the earth and the other world irregularly, he judged that he would not be able to play the role of a proper person, and rejected it.
“Sometimes when I can afford it, I think the extent to which I can help is the limit. I’m sorry.”
“What do you have to be sorry for? Rather, you should be grateful for helping me sometimes. I’m sorry for saying unnecessary things.”
“I’m sorry, is the second car shot by you?”
“Hahaha! Okay, I shoot. Eat whatever you want!”

An antique hotel room that is incomparable to any place you’ve stayed before.
After taking a warm shower, Yooseong sat on a soft chair and quietly stared at his smartphone.
A list of 11 digit numbers that you won’t get used to no matter how many times you see it.
“·······.”
Although the presence of monsters is threatening, humanity has endured and civilization has not collapsed.
With this amount of money, you can live without shortage even in such a world.
It is enough to build and enjoy your own castle full of all kinds of entertainment, such as games, movies, and novels, as you did before. Unless an extreme event such as the destruction of mankind due to inability to stop the invasion of monsters occurs, there is probably no way to come out of it until you die of disease or old age.
If I had been myself a month ago, I would have definitely done that.
Because the person he is, the person Han Yoo-seong, is definitely such a person.
‘Now is···.’
The events of the past month flashed through my mind.
The sense of accomplishment when you managed to catch a monster while going through 999 deaths, the thrill when a gambler who threw an entire faction as bait succeeds, the joy when you catch a traitor and achieve more than a given goal, and countless people with just one smartphone. The pleasure of doing it at will.
The intense emotions I’ve never felt before were embarrassing, but at the same time, they weren’t very interesting.
‘There is no need to take more risks.’
I earned enough money to live for the rest of my life, and I also had the strength to take care of myself.
Since he did not have grandiose dreams such as conquering the world, and he did not have a longing for power, wealth, or fame, it was reasonable to stop using goggles that might have some disadvantages.
‘A bright and safe road without any danger. A dark and dangerous road where you don’t know what dangers there may be. If you think with common sense, you don’t have to worry about which path to choose, but…’
Aris, Haecheongyeong, Philip, and Leon.
What I did with the body of four people.
And a desperate fight with an orc warrior that he did with his own body.

Just by recalling it, I felt something thrilling in a corner of my head, and my heart was beating wildly, asserting my existence.
“I···.”
After hesitating for a while, Yooseong picked up the goggles he had left on the table, stared at them for a moment, and put them on his head.
“It’s crazy, it’s crazy.”
Although he was endlessly complaining with his mouth, he did not take off his goggles until Yooseong finally reconciled with particles of light and disappeared from this world.

Just before disappearing, Yooseong was not aware that he was smiling faintly.

-Musin: That’s why the search for that ‘limited amount of room’ was a failure.
-Super Ant: It’s too early to make a hasty decision yet. Since no traces have been found at all, it is more likely that he is not on Earth at all because he is doing a quest, or he is isolated in a remote area and has not been able to join society.
Users can never hide their existence.
Unlike those who have a proper system and direction, such as warriors, wizards, and psychics, it is easy to become an all-rounder who can do anything because he picks out only the skills he needs from a lot of worlds, or worse, he is a jumble of talent without a root. was
Not to mention, if he had just become a user, there was nothing more to say.
-Super ant: You need to secure yourself as soon as possible and protect them safely. Losing users is a huge loss.
Contractors also have superhuman strength and abilities, but their limitations are clear.
No matter how much you train, you cannot gain more power than the contracted object, and you are in a position like a slave who has to keep paying the price to maintain the contract, but users are different.
It was because he had the potential to become a transcendental being by stealing the various abilities and possibilities of the infinite world and repeating endless growth.
However, unlike the enthusiastic ‘Super Ant’, the reaction of ‘God of War’ was cold.
-Musin: Yes or no.
-Super Ant: Are you really going to be so uncooperative? It’s a matter of human survival.
-Musin: I never thought you would discuss the survival of mankind. That’s not even funny.
-Super Ant: Because I didn’t know. Because I didn’t know it would turn out like this. Would you have known
-Musin: I guess so.
‘Godless’ laughed.
It’s changed 180 degrees now, but no matter how much I think of the ‘super ant’ of the past, I couldn’t cut it without being sarcastic.
-Super Ant: You can say anything, but you should at least cooperate. Just because you’re Korean doesn’t necessarily mean you’re living in Korea, so if you find someone with fundamentally missing abilities or strange things, check them out.
– Musin: I’m busy.
-Super Ant: You really…
– Musin: No, it’s not an excuse, I’m really busy. Don’t you know what situation I’m in right now?
Only then did the ‘Super Ant’, who recalled the circumstances of the ‘God of War’, shut his mouth.
Certainly, putting personal feelings aside, ‘God of War’ was not in a relaxed situation to do other things right now.
-Musin: Of course, even if I can afford it, I don’t really want to find it.
-Super Ant: Ah, why?!
-Musin: If he has the will, he will become stronger on his own even if we don’t help him. If not, he won’t pretend to listen no matter what we say. Isn’t it true that we can know just by looking at it?
-Super Ant: ······.
– Musin: There was enough time before the world came to this point. But how were we?
Some seriously worked on their strength, some just wanted to make money, and some wanted fame.
The result was a difference in strength among users.
-Musin: 3 strong, 3 heavy. 3 approx. The results tell you everything. He knows how to ‘limit the amount of space in a corner’ and will do it well himself.
-Super Ant: I’m not doing this because I don’t think I can do it! If you sell the things you got as a quest reward and go into hiding…
-Musin: Hang up now.
Taking off his goggles, ‘God of War’ looked down at the ground.
Horrible-looking creatures reminiscent of demons.
Faced with creatures aiming both familiar and unfamiliar weapons, ‘God of War’ pulled out his sword.
“Can you guys really give me enlightenment?”
