Chapter 66: 3 Days Of Waiting
1.
When I opened the community forum in the evening, this post was trending in real-time popular posts.
[I think Kim Doha might have already arrived.]
I live near Uljin, where the Haneul nuclear power plant is, so I immediately set out as soon as I saw the post.
It didnt even take a day to get there, and now Im waiting at the power plant for other ability users to arrive.
There are quite a few people like me, so over 10 ability users are already gathered here. Most lived nearby, so theyre either E-Class or F-Classlol.
Anyway, while we were waiting, one of the ability users said they saw someone with wings flying into the power plant carrying several people during the day.
I didnt think much of it then, but the local authority here suddenly called us and told the E-Class and F-Class ability users to just go back.
Considering they had been telling us to wait until now and suddenly say they dont need E-Class and F-Class, it seems likely that Kim Doha or some other high-ranked individual is here.
Probably, that bastard said they didnt need us and told them to send us back
Thinking about it makes me pissed, lol
So, for now, Im holding out and refusing to leave.
Who does he think he is, telling those who came to seal the rift to go back?
Just because hes ranked 1st? Damn it, lol
If they want to send us back, let Kim Doha come and say it directly. Id like to see his face, lol.
In this zombie apocalypse, the existence of ability users was precious.
They were indispensable for fighting against zombies, and there werent many of them.
Hence, ability users naturally realized their status, and everyone had somewhat developed a thuggish side.
Im a special existence, so you all should be beneath me.
Such an attitude was emerging.
The problem was that if someone accepted this survival-of-the-fittest logic, they should properly grovel in front of ability users stronger than themselves. Yet, there were occasionally those who, seemingly without ever having been put in their place, recklessly acted out without assessing the situation.
As expected, the guy who wrote this post seemed to carry that sort of attitude.
The comments werent very favorable either.
-If Doha says to leave, just leave, you damn jerk
Why should I? What can you do if I dont leave, lol
You dumbass, do you think youd even be a speck of dirt under a nail in sealing a B-Class rift? Know your place and scram.
Exactly, lets see Kim Dohas face and then leave, lol. Does it make sense for us, who arrived later, to be told to disappear immediately?
Ugh, damn, this guy doesnt get it
Freaking hell, lol
-The success of this operation depends on the nuclear power plant, and this guys completely lost it.
-Upon hearing the news of Kim Dohas arrival, all the local pests have gathered, lol
-Didnt he receive any home education?
-Whats with this EF-Class punk acting cocky against a ranker?
For real, lol
Probably a narcissistic bug.
After reading the comments, I thought
This guy seriously needs a good smack to come to his senses.
I immediately called Director Seon Jong-yun.
-Hello? Mr. Doha?
Yes, Director. Are there any E-Class and F-Class ability users refusing to leave?
-Ah actually, there are. I thought our D-Class ability user staff would handle it, but they came out in a lets give it a try manner. But its also not possible for them to really risk their lives and fight.
They want to see my face, right?
-Huh? How did you know?
There was a post in the community forum. Please gather all of those people in one place. Tell them they can see Kim Dohas face as they wished.
-Oh dear, will you be okay? Sorry for the trouble
Its okay. Ill be there in 10 minutes.
-Yes.
After hanging up the phone, Serena and Ciel were looking my way.
Should I kill them all for you?
Serena asked with an innocent look on her face.
Perhaps it was because the last opponents she had faced were the humanoid creatures that had attacked the department store at Jeongbalsan Station, which made her a bit aggressive.
However, this situation wasnt that severe.
There was no need to bring Serena and Ciel with me.
You cant just kill people on a whim. Ill handle this alone, so rest here.
The other four, who had been sitting, now awkwardly stood up, all of them eyeing me warily.
Brushing off the blood on my fist, I finally spoke.
Hey, you guys.
Yes, yes!
Yes!
The visibly shaken group responded.
Why didnt you guys leave when Director Seon Jong-yun asked you nicely?
Well, thats
Im Im sorry.
They were now exceedingly polite.
Theyd probably leave if I told them to right now, but that wasnt all I wanted.
More of these guys might appear in the next three days.
And I didnt want to repeat this scene every time, so I decided to make an example out of these guys.
If youre sorry, gather here, kneel, and raise your hands.
Do you want to lie down next to this guy?
Pointing at the guy whose face was smashed, the four hesitating ability users promptly knelt and raised their hands, looking quite embarrassed.
I then took a picture that captured both the unconscious guy and the four of them clustered together.
Snap.
Good. All four of you write an apology on a full A4-sized paper. If you write carelessly, youll end up like this guy.
Answer.
Yes!
Well write it!
I turned to address a power plant worker who was staring at me blankly.
Could you watch them to make sure they write their apologies properly?
He stiffened as if I were his boss and replied.
Yes! Understood!
Thank you.

I posted the photo of those guys kneeling with their hands up and the four apology letters to the community.
With a post titled, [E-class, F-class, please leave gracefully when asked nicely.].
With this, I doubt thered be any more guys acting tough.
Anyone who did would essentially be saying, I want to get hit and write an apology too!.
The comments were mostly positive.
-LMAO
-Kim Doha is tougher than I thought, LOL
-ROFL
-Feels so refreshing
-Did those idiots really think they stood a chance against a ranker in real life? Did their guts spill out? LOL
Just act tough on the internet against rankers, LOL
For real, LOL
They always talk about rankers lightly in the community, probably lost their sense of reality
Ive laughed so hard after a long time
-The sincerity in those apology letters is damn hilarious
For the next three days, having little to do, I spent most of my time browsing the community.
With everyone thirsty for news on the Haneul Power Plant, any related post skyrocketed in popularity.
Rumors about rankers were no exception.
Posts like, Rank 9 has set off for the power plant, Rank 3 seemed to have left a while ago, Rank 2s identity hasnt been revealed yet, but who could it be were all over.
I waited, munching on the lunch boxes provided by Mr. Sangdeok, with Serena and Ciel.
And now, three days later
It was time to form a party and explore the rift.
I entered the conference room where all the ability users had gathered.
