I Grow a Legion in My Phone 15
I have no idea what nonsense youre spouting. Im going to report this.
Sorry, but you cant do that.
Oh Yoon-ah chuckled.
Kang Doyun, who had attempted to flee, was frozen in place with a look of horror on her face.
The peculiar sensation of being conscious yet unable to move her body at her own will.
You must obey my commands. Its only natural for a knight to listen to their master, right?
What on earth are you doing?
Its no simple game. Its a secret of this world.
Oh Yoon-ah forced her to sit on a bench.
With no choice, she sat beside Oh Yoon-ah, staring at the screen being shown to her.
Is this, a movie?
Hardly. Great Chief, it was a success.
The trembling voice seemed to please Oh Yoon-ah, who, slinging an arm around her shoulder and raising her hand, smiled wickedly and then spoke into the phone.
Kang Doyuns eyes widened in shock at the scene that unfolded next.
On the screen, reminiscent of a scene from a movie, an elderly man with a long white beard bowed his head.
What in the world is this
These people are my unit, my subjects. I met them recently and we have been working together for the benefit of one another. What happened today is just one of those times.
Oh Yoon-ah slowly narrated the situation on the phone.
Naturally, it was an unbelievable story.
Apart from the fact that her body wouldnt move at all at a single spoken word.
Even as shocking stories continued to pour in, Kang Doyun struggled to keep her sanity, sweating profusely.

Why are you so late? Your moms been asking
Kang Doyun!
Oh dear, I just slipped away to the side.
Even after closing the door, the sound of being scolded terribly continued to be heard.
Before long, the sound of a door closing from across the hall was heard.
Perhaps this is where it ends?
[Not only your body, but also your surroundings need to be carefully observed. This episode is rapidly moving beyond the very early stages. The majority of players and units have adapted to the app, and will wield their newfound powers.]
Just like Cha Ji-yeon, huh? But we are too slow, arent we?
[Infinite possibilities come with their own set of penalties, naturally.]
We practically started from nothing.
Eating up the smaller cells little by little, gradually taking down the bigger ones.
However, this meant that our progress was slower compared to those players connected to already somewhat established entities.
[But the growth rate of the legion is undeniably explosive. And the more it grows, the faster it becomes. Theres no need to worry too much.]
I know that.
But we have a powerful advantage of our own.
I checked the screen.
Our legion was still preparing for war.
Meanwhile, a lifeform created as a trial broke out of its egg.
A hunched posture, refined front limbs.
It was clearly made based on the rat we had consumed recently, despite being covered in a carapace.
Is this just an experiment?
[Yes. Although its an interesting and appealing form, the legion concluded that it is more efficient to stick to the existing method.]
The mass production of soldiers based on this rat never happened.
Even in my opinion, it seemed right for the legion to continue leveraging their strengths in a better direction.And I couldnt quite pinpoint what their strength was, but it certainly wasnt that.
[Do they sense our presence and stay on guard?]
Ugh.
I simply took photos of the protein and glucose candies I had prepared and sent them over.
Surely, among my friends and peers, there were others who had ambitiously bought proteins only to let them sit unused.
I really need to get a part-time job, huh.
Looking at my nearly empty bank account, I let out a hollow laugh.
Caught up in a world-shaking, life-or-death situation, and here I was needing to work because I was out of money.
It seemed like studying was already a lost cause, so I should quickly find a job I could do.
What kind of money is this?
However, my search for part-time work was abruptly halted by the meaningful actions of Kang Doyun that evening.
Prize money.
What? What prize money?
Just take it and consider it repayment for all the pocket money youve received from me!
He threw a money envelope at me before retreating to his room.
I was dumbfounded as I opened the envelope.
Ten golden bills.
How could such a significant amount come from a minor, someone who didnt even work?
Hey, no lies, tell me honestly. Where did this come from?
I asked quietly in front of the firmly shut door, hoping he would understand I was serious.
Reallyits nothing
Wont you open the door?
His barely squeezed-out reply nearly brought tears, making me more anxious.
Especially because this was uncharacteristic of him.
Its really nothing.
Instead of a verbal reply, I received a message notification.
My face hardened.
But I didnt probe any further.
He was old enough now.
Simply yelling or demanding wouldnt make him open up.
If I told our motherit would all be over by the end of the day.
Is it crime-related? Just tell me that.
Its not that. Its just something Im doing with a friend.
Could it be cryptocurrency?
With my limited concerns, nothing else came to mind.
It was frustrating, but I had no other plausible guesses.
Just be careful nobodys taking advantage of you, that would be a serious issue.
Yeah.
In the end, I only received what hardly counted as an answer before returning to my room.
Doing something with a friend. Unlike me, he had too many friends for me to even have a clue.
Just thinking of the male and female friends I knew of his, they numbered more than ten hands worth.
Do you believe in fate?
What are you on about now?
To your family The fate that has befallen you Youll come to know of it soon enough anyway.
Please, why do you have to start with that again?
Annoyed, I tossed my phone onto the bed.
Cry for help:
I have been let go from my current organization, and I will end working for them by the end of March, I would like to ask for financial assistance for the following month while I look for a new job. I would be grateful for any amount of help. Thank you! You can send your donations here: https://paypal.me/lordfifth?country.x=PH&locale.x=en_US
