Unlocked chapter (4/6)

[The difference between man and monster (3)].

Oh, its hot.

As soon as he found some shade, Eunha dived in.

It was nice to go to the pool on this hot day, but it was a long walk, and he didnt want to walk.

His moms ice water was a lifesaver.

He gulped down the ice-cold water and stuck his tongue out to lick the ice.

The heat was gone, at least a little.

It would only get hotter again once they were out of the shade.

No Eunha, why dont you come!

Its not even that hot.

That was Minji, who had traveled to the sea this summer.

With her sunburned skin, she yelled at him for not catching up with her halfway.

They were running late anyway.

It was all because of Eunha. When she waited for him, he didnt come out, so she went to his house and found him playing with Eunae without getting ready.

Hyun-ryul and the alchemy duo are late anyway.

Theyre going to cram school!

Oh, yeah. Come to think of it, dont you have to go to cram school?

Eunha asked, suddenly remembering.

Not long ago, his mother had asked him if he wanted to skip cram school.

Of course, I had said yes.

Before the <End of the Century Destruction>, there were many children attending cram schools due to the private education craze.

This hasnt changed much.

Many children in elementary school were enrolled in cram schools.

This is especially true if you go to Doan Elementary School, which has produced many people from the political and business world.

Of course, among his friends, Hyun-ryul and the Alchemy duo were the only ones attending a cram school.

Eunhyeok had made it clear to his parents that he wanted to be a player, and Hayang was helping out at Happiness in her spare time.

Seona was learning from a tutor who made regular visits to the church.

Why are you asking about what my dad does, anyway?

So, do you know what your dad does or not?

Eunha answered with a gloomy expression.

Minji brushed aside the hair stuck to her cheek and spoke.

My dad runs a math academy. I study math with him every evening. Why? Do you want to join?

Yeah, do whatever you want.

Youre hopeless.

Minji pursed her lips.

Stepping out into the shadows, Eunha ignored her rolling eyes and walked to his appointment.

No matter what she said behind him, she eventually followed him.

Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a super.

Hey, Kim Min-ji.

Why are you calling me?

Its hot, lets get some ice cream.

Hey, you idiot, did you forget what I said earlier? Were late!

If were late, theyll play by themselves. Oh, look. Lets just get an ice cream and go.

As if to say, Lets have a cigarette and go.

Eunha poked Minji in the side as she came closer and pointed to the supermarket.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

Minji frowned.

She had an appointment.

If she left now, shed be late, but if she ate ice cream, shed be late for a longer time.

If Im late, its your fault, I dont know anything about it. Do you understand?

Youre going to eat it anyway. Hey, youre late because of me, so Ill take the shot. What are you going to eat?

Ill have another Together!

Ugh, I think I know whos mukminji.

I told you not to tell mukminji!

Dont be silly, pick what you want to eat. Its not every day that I do this.

Two people step on a plastic box and argue while choosing ice cream.

When they stopped talking, they were sitting on a bench and shoveling ice cream into their mouths.

Eating ice cream under the shaded roof felt like a vacation.

I didnt want to go out into the heat again.

I didnt want to.

[please help me!]

Didnt you hear Seonas voice?

Oh, blame my mood.

[Someone call a player!]

I couldnt blame it on my mood.

A mana explosion.

Either his body would explode or he would transform into a Mosquito Fly.

When you defeat a Mosquito Fly, shouldnt you test the people you come in contact with to see if theyre infected?

Eunha was dumbfounded.

It was one of the basics that were thoroughly taught at the Player Academy.

But there were humans infected with the Mosquito Fly running around?

Whether it was the players or the hospital, it was evidence of a lack of follow-through.

Either that, or there was no manual for exterminating the Mosquito Fly in this time.

I dont know whos at fault, but you assholes, you cant handle this?

In the end, it didnt change the fact that someone had to clean up their own shit.

Eunha swallowed the curse word that escaped his mouth and jumped up just as Mosquito Fly was descending.

He loaded his body with mana.

It barely dodged the attack that landed so close to it.

Huh.

It didnt do much damage.

The opponent was a Seventh Rank.

Even though he had more mana in his body than before, it was hard to deal with it without a weapon that could hold it.

He wasnt Bruno, and he didnt have the skills to damage monsters with martial arts.

Sazzsaizzaiisszz.

Fizzzuzp

Is he still conscious?

Im getting pretty tired of this.

It wouldnt be strange if his consciousness was gone and he was left with the mana-hungry instincts of a monster.

Nevertheless, its demeanor was a mixture of human consciousness and monster instincts.

He stepped back to avoid an attack. He couldnt rush recklessly at the one flying in the sky.

Dodging the creatures long straw-like proboscis, Eunha used a fist imbued with mana to strike its chin.

It didnt stop at the jab.

Its slender legs posed no threat.

Eunha continued to pummel it with his fist until the creature plunged into the sky, trying to escape by thrusting its legs.

The creature began transforming again at that moment.

-What?

Its tattered legs twisted in various directions before being covered in thick flesh.

It resembled human skin. On the ends of the stick-like legs, parts reminiscent of human hands appeared.

It was a process of Demonization, a phenomenon so rare that it was almost non-existent.

Thats why he couldnt ignore the memory of lifting his head from beyond the memories. While making a eek-ekk sound, Eunha called Hayang, who was maintaining the barrier.

Hayang! Didnt the old man turn into a monster earlier?

Uh, yeah!

I saw it myself! It was an old man!

And it wasnt a woman?

No, it was a man. I saw it too.

So, its not Belzebuth.

Belzebuth was a woman.

Before the regression, a group of demons were responsible for mass terrorism in South Korea.

Called one-man, one-woman walking disasters, they called themselves the new humans.

The Seonnyeo government condemned their terrorism. Calling them demons in derogatory terms, they called their group the Guma.

And one of the gumas was Belzebuth, the ruler of flies.

When he saw Mosquito Fly in human form, he couldnt help but think of her.

But she was a woman. Not a man.

The time for demons was still far off. Guma was still more than a decade away.

Gu-gu-gu-g-o-g-og-u

Misleading people.

My memories of Belzebuth were not good.

Disturbingly so.

The more he recalled memories he had been trying to forget, the more annoyance welled up within him.

You guys stay here.

The mosquito fly shot up into the sky.

It was trying to escape.

Who gave it the right to run away? He had no intention of letting it go just like that.

However, chasing after the one flying to the sky wasnt feasible.

It would be possible if there was a path, but he jumped onto walls instead.

Dont go anywhere. Wait for someone to come, whether its a player or Minji.

He jumped onto the wall and immediately climbed up the tree after landing, leaping onto the roof.

The path to pursue it wasnt limited to asphalt roads.

Any place his feet touched was a path.

Everything he stepped on was a path.
