Chapter 267 – 267. Invasion of Old Comrades. [Camp of Swearers Passing By][2]
“This friend here is Peach, a friend of mine I’ve known since before the apocalypse. “I am a general awakener and my occupation is a supporter.”
When the children are asleep,
The rest of the camp members and Kim Tae-sik gathered in a separate room.
While the children were awake, they walked around the room.
I couldn’t keep up with their energy, so I didn’t have time to talk.
A passer-by was holding the hand of his best friend, Peach, and introduced her to Kim Tae-sik.
“Ah! Hello Peach…”
Nodding…!
Kim Tae-sik was also unable to do anything else because he was busy playing with the children.
So he belatedly bowed his head to Peach.
Passing by, the swearer, the Gangwon-do hunter, and the peach, they continued to call each other by nicknames even after Kim Tae-sik came.
‘In some ways, this is true… Daeseong-gu survival camp is very unusual…’
It was honestly awkward at first.
But as I continued to feel the atmosphere, I agreed.
An atmosphere where you have to enter a password from the moment you enter the camp.
It was considered natural in an environment where you never know when today’s colleagues will become tomorrow’s enemies, and where unexpected opponents may suddenly appear.
‘Seeing how even the kids are cooperating with it, there are quite a few twists and turns…’
Moreover, the members here are not acting in such a way under agreement.
It seemed like he was doing it automatically because he had acquired it.
“And this is Gangwon-do Hunter, I already introduced you and we fought together, but I want to introduce you properly.”
Afterwards, a passer-by introduced Kim Tae-sik to the Gangwon-do hunter.
“I’ll greet you again, Gangwon-do Hunter.”
Nodding…!
Kim Tae-sik bowed his head to the Gangwon-do hunter.
“I will also formally greet you, Nano Warrior. Actually, in my case, I didn’t participate in the community myself, but I often read the posts there. I also read Nano Warrior’s posts a lot. These were great articles. “It was information full of practical experience.”
“Is that so? Haha!! “It was a mediocre piece of writing, but since you said that, I don’t know what to do haha!!!”
There was definitely a difference between saying hello outside and formally saying hello inside.
As he was wary of his surroundings outside, the Gangwon hunter had no choice but to speak less and hide his facial expressions.
However, the current Gangwon-do hunter just became the face of a good man and exchanged greetings with Kim Tae-sik.
When Gangwon-do Hunter, a former real hunter, praised his miserable writings, Kim Tae-sik felt a great sense of elation and trembled with humble humility.
“Gangwon-do Hunter is the most recent member among our members. “You were promoted to Class C after joining our camp.”
A passing man told Kim Tae-sik more specific information about Gangwon-do hunters.
I think there should be some level of information fairness between us.
“Oh, I see…”
Nod…! Nod…! Nod…!
Kim Tae-sik responded by nodding his head thoughtfully to the introduction of a passing swearer.
He looked like he was thinking deeply about something.
“Then, of course… This means there are more members, right?”
Afterwards, Kim Tae-sik carefully asked a swearer who was passing by.
Judging from her words, Gangwon-do Hunter is the most recent member to join.
It was thought that there would be more people than those currently in the room.
‘As far as I know, there was a significant camp of cursing people passing by from the beginning, right? So it’s probably right that there are more…’
First off, do you have kids? Kim Tae-sik, who was surprised by the concept of
And then, after a little more time, are there just kids? Changed to
Of course, there are two Hidden Awakened people, and the peach introduced just now is a support for regular Awakened people.
This was because it was very different from the scale of the swearing camp that he had only heard about in passing.
Common sense tells us that if there are that many children, it would be difficult to survive for more than half a year with just the current number of people.
“Yes that’s right. There are two more who have not yet returned. Those friends are also awakened. One is a normal awakened technician and the other is a normal awakened fighter class.”
A passing cursor also seemed to read Kim Tae-sik’s thoughts through his facial expression and tone of voice.
So she immediately confirmed his doubts.
“So, in the case of those friends, now…”
ㅡuuuuu…!!
And while a passing swearer was trying to continue his story about other colleagues,
Her cell phone vibrating sound came from the inside pocket of her jacket that was lying next to her.
“It looks like they are twins… They really aren’t noble people either. Kikikick…!”
Peach spoke in a playful voice to a passerby who took out her cell phone from her jacket.
“That’s right. They’re twins. “Has the inspection already been completed?”
A passing cursor answered that question and checked the text message on her cell phone.
“Ah… Damn… Looks like there’s a problem in the warehouse…?”
However, her expression soon became serious.
**********
“Yes, I will go with the cursing guy who was passing by.”
There was a problem at one of the food warehouses secured by a passing swearer.
The two twins were not sure of the solution, so they radioed.
After hearing the explanation, Kim Tae-sik said he would accompany the swearer he was passing by.
“Anyway, you have to learn the surroundings in order to do other things later, and I think it would be good for the children to have someone they are familiar with.”
Since it was evening, I couldn’t go out like I did during the day, leaving the kids and the regular awakened peach alone.
One more person had to stay, and a passing cursor thought it would be better for Kim Tae-sik to stay.
However, Kim Tae-sik suggested that it seemed right for the Gangwon-do hunter to stay and the bathhouse that was passing by with him to go.
“But… Today is the day you arrived… So you should rest…”
Although it was an apocalypse, a passing cursor wanted to treat Kim Tae-sik as a guest.
It was an expression and tone full of such regret.
“I agree! I think it would be a good idea for you and Nano Warrior to go. Anyway, the two of you will have to carry out missions together from now on. “It’s better to put it together in advance.”
Then, Peach, who was next to a passing swearer, gave strength to Kim Tae-sik’s words.
“Hey…!”
A passerby tried to dissuade Peach.
“I agree too. I like the combination of long-distance and short-range combat, so I think I’d like to join in if possible, but if you look at the daytime battle, I think Nano Warrior has more than a reasonable ranged performance ability. So I think that’s enough.”
However, even Gangwon-do hunters joined Peach’s opinion.
“Mister…!”
A passerby looked embarrassed.
“Okay, you passing by, come with me.”
Kim Tae-sik, who was completely overwhelmed by the majority vote, spoke with a confident expression.
“Okay… We’ll both go…”
In the end, a passing swearer had no choice but to break his stubbornness.
Hehe…’
Looking at that scene, Peach covered her mouth and smiled sinisterly.
“Ah… It was separated into a survival camp…”
But in the end, I think the decision was right.
This is because heading to the site gave Kim Tae-sik an opportunity to tell more intimate stories about the camp.
“I once asked Nano Warrior about my family issues, right? I spent a few days diving. “As the camps were separated and the work overlapped, I was so stressed out that I went diving…”
Originally, the swearing survival camp that passed through Kim Tae-sik’s mind was before the separation took place.
Then there was a separation in the middle,
Because the cause of the separation was not very pleasant, the bathhouse that was passing by could not tell Kim Tae-sik in advance.
“It was that time…”
At the time, a passerby confided to Kim Tae-sik not only his worries about his family but also his lack of confidence in his decision.
That confidence was confidence in the separation of camps.
“At first, there was no problem with having children because there were other people around, but as time passed, it became difficult to find food, and people’s anxiety and stress became more severe, so they began to feel burdened by the presence of children. .”
Sigh…!
A passing cursor said while looking into the alley next to him with the 『He who sees the darkness』 Trait.
Surprisingly, there seemed to be no sense of anger or even resentment toward the members who had burdened the children in the tone of a passing cursor talking about the separation situation.
‘At first glance, they appear to be children who either had no parents or lost their parents in the apocalypse… Unless it is your own child, it is not easy to realistically take care of them for a long period of time…’
And Kim Tae-sik understood what the tone of the passing swearer meant.
‘It’s true in terms of material things, but above all in terms of mental aspect.’
Apocalypse is chaos.
This is a world where even the slightest weakness can result in death.
Having children around is an environment that can weaken anyone’s mind unless they have a decent mentality.
As the desire for survival grew stronger, it was thought that the members of the Passionist Camp before separation would also have experienced such conflicts.
‘I guess that’s what the passer-by was worried about when he told me he had children… Since it’s something that can’t be helped, I can also have those thoughts.’
Since it was not an area where right and wrong were judged, the passing swearer was trying to respect Kim Tae-sik’s reaction.
Still, when Kim Tae-sik showed that he liked her children, she couldn’t help but feel fortunate.
“But I couldn’t let go of my children. “I feel like I’m doing what my mom and dad did to me.”
“That’s why I decided to separate from my other colleagues. Of course, I didn’t pursue it alone, and it was only possible because a hunter from Gangwon-do joined at the right time.”
However, people are diverse, and there are people who perceive the same situation from different perspectives.
A passing cursor embraced her coexistence with her children with her strong sense of responsibility.
“I understand that feeling! Someone said that if the sound of children crying or laughing disappears from the community, there is no hope!”
“I felt it too. “When I heard the sound of children laughing at the camp I helped, I realized that things were changing!”
Then Taesik Kim sympathized with me to the fullest.
I fully understand the concerns of the passing swearer, but
Kim Tae-sik was somewhat disappointed that she did not recognize his sincere feelings.
Kim Tae-sik, who appealed and dug it, thought he had grabbed her chance, and she eagerly showed off her pure sense of responsibility to a passing swearer.
“Yes… I think so… The sight of Nano Warrior smiling and playing with the children… It looked really warm…”
Red…!
Hearing Kim Tae-sik’s words, a passing cursor blushed and squinted slightly.
“Anyway… That’s how we separated them… There are children, but since there aren’t that many people here, we couldn’t make the camp large.”
“That’s why we set up a camp of the current size, but the biggest problem that arose was the storage of supplies. “There was an absolute lack of facilities to store food and other supplies.”
“So, after securing several external warehouses, I entrusted them to the twins to manage them on a regular basis…”
As the camp grows, the number of people required to manage it increases.
It was a problem of number that could not be solved solely by the quality of the members.
Although he had chosen this system in anticipation of some loopholes, he was a passing cursor who looked embarrassed when a problem actually arose.
And then something happened that made her even more embarrassed.
“They said they were separated and left…?”
A passing swearer who encountered the twins with Kim Tae-sik near the warehouse,
It was the separated campers who raided the warehouse.
