Chapter 303 – 303. Walk 3
It feels like the women were stolen by the cat.
After one cat approached Se-ah, several more came closer to us, and Seung-hee, Mina, and Se-ah looked at the cats without even moving with an expression that almost made them cry.
With great courage, Se-Ah slowly lowered her posture and was finally able to squat down without the cat running away.
Se-Ah holds out her hand very slowly and carefully.
As if Se-Ah was so happy, a cat rubbed her head against Se-Ah’s hand.
“!!!!!”
Se-Ah can’t even make a sound and is so happy that she looks like she has no regrets even if she dies.
What’s even funnier is that Seung-hee and Mina are looking at Se-ah with extremely envious expressions.
Seunghee and Mina, encouraged by Se-Ah’s appearance, slowly lowered their posture and eventually both were able to squat down.
After much effort, they even reached out their hands and the cats finally approached them and rubbed their heads.
“Wow…”
“I’m happy…”
“If I stomp here and make all the cats run away… I’ll be killed, right?”
I muttered softly, and the three women seemed to have heard me, glaring at me fiercely.
It’s scary… How can you make facial expressions like that?
I stood there as if dead, so as not to scare the cats by mistake, and saw Anna standing still as well.
Anna doesn’t react much when the cat rubs against her leg.
It’s a cute expression, but it’s not an expression of being happy to die like those three people.
Just cute. Level of performance?
“Anna, you don’t like cats?”
“Cat? Meow.”
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said anything.”
As I stood there for a while, all sorts of thoughts came to mind.
How long should I stand like this?
Aren’t these women cold?
When can I go home?
What on earth is so cute about those cats that makes them so anxious?
Then, a cat lay down on the ground covered in fur.
Seunghee, who mustered up courage, gently touched the cat’s back with her hand, and the cat turned its body and made a cute pose.
“Kyaaaaa.”
“Ahhh…”
“Ears… Cute.”
Uh… It’s kind of cute. I think I understand a little bit why they like it so much.
I didn’t want to interrupt the good time, so I waited a little longer even though I was tired of standing around.
I feel like I want to use Phase Out to get out of this place, but… If you do that for no reason and the cat runs away, you’ll be in big trouble.
As I was standing there with my mind empty and thoughtless, the cats suddenly stood up quickly and looked in a certain direction.
And what? While doing this, everyone runs away.
“Ah…”
“Huh?”
“Where are you going?”
“I… I didn’t do anything!”
I spoke hurriedly just in case, but no one was interested in what I had to say.
There are just women who are sad that their cats have left.
“Why did you go!?”
“It’s a waste…”
“Are you coming again?”
Three women stand up and express their disappointment.
Unlike those three, Anna and I looked at the place the cats last looked.
How… What did you see that made you run away?
Darkness.
It’s a fairly dark alley because there are no streetlights.
Apparently the cats looked in that direction and ran away.
Animals’ senses are sensitive. Much more than humans.
There must be something… It is invisible to the eye. I wonder if there is a skill that allows me to see night as if it were day.
“Songcheol…”
Anna calls my name softly. Did Anna see something?
As I stare into the darkness without taking my eyes off… Something moved.
What? Quite… Is it big?
Purr ring
Sound. The sound of something huge exhaling and trembling flesh.
And then what was approaching reveals itself in the light coming from the convenience store.
Wild boar. Almost the size of a small compact car.
When I looked at it, I was purely amazed.
“Hey…”
I’ve heard the story.
If you go to the demilitarized zone, there are things like wild boars that size and eagles bigger than an adult’s open arms.
Five years since the end of the world. In the meantime, this secluded place has become no different from the demilitarized zone.
That must be why such a huge wild boar appeared in a place like this.
“Songcheol…”
Anna mutters my name softly again.
Even so, there is no anxiety or worry in her voice. Feeling like you completely trust me?
“Ugh…”
“What is that?”
“What’s so big…?”
Seunghee, Mina, and Se-Ah also look surprised, but they don’t seem to be worried.
A look of admiration similar to mine?
In fact, it is natural for their reaction to be like this.
Even a wild boar the size of a house is not very threatening.
In the days when I didn’t have any skills, I would have been so scared that I would have had to run away, but there’s no need for that now, right?
That’s why you may be surprised by such a carefree appearance.
“I guess you’re the leader of those guys from earlier?”
I don’t know if it’s really true or not. But it may not have anything to do with it.
Is it revenge? Or did he come to look for his subordinates or his family?
Whatever it is, it’s stupid. Once you show up, it’s over.
Kkkk! Kkkk!!!
But something unexpected happened.
The wild dog boss suddenly barks fiercely and runs towards us.
When the wild boar sees the boss like that, he gets very nervous and lowers his posture.
No matter how you look at it, that means an attack.
Wow!
The wild dog boss runs at lightning speed, comes between the wild boar and us, stops, and barks at the wild boar.
A guy barking furiously with his snout covered in wild boar blood.
And. Is this guy really here to protect us?
It’s quite extraordinary, isn’t it?
This guy clearly saw how we easily killed the wild boars on the spot.
You go out of your way to protect us, even though you clearly know that we have the power? That’s fascinating.
However, despite the threat from the wild dog boss, the wild boar does not change its low posture as if it does not feel any particular threat.
And the wild boar leader looks at the wild dog boss and us with eyes that don’t tell what he’s thinking.
It looks like it’s going to rush towards us at any moment.
And the guy is still barking and trying his best to chase away the wild boar.
Okay. That’s enough. I know how loyal you are.
No, I’m not sure if it’s loyalty, but what it means has been clearly conveyed.
Next, it’s humans’ turn to take care of it.
My water surface area has increased by 60 percent from the existing 30 meters to 48 meters.
Actually, there was no need to use flight as before.
I just wanted to make it a little more dramatic.
There’s no need to do that now, so just simply subdue the wild boar.
“Grow up.”
Unless you’re an insomniac boar, you won’t be able to stop this.
As expected, with one hit of my skill, the wild boar’s eyes close and its heavy body falls to the asphalt road.
Thump
The wild dog boss stops barking and looks at me.
Even though I saw him fall, he didn’t relax and didn’t leave between us.
“Should I count?”
“Yes.”
Then, Se-Ah approaches the wild boar.
Using her super strength, she delivers a powerful punch to the center of her head again.
There is no size or anything. There won’t be much difference in the thickness of the skull anyway.
A wild boar that died with its head broken in a single blow.
And the wild dog boss looking at us like that.
“As expected, this guy feels different from before.”
Se-Ah shakes her hands and mumbles as if it’s no big deal.
The corner of her mouth twitches with pride as she suddenly becomes the boss boar slayer.
And the funny thing is that the way the wild dog boss looks at Se-Ah has changed.
I was the one who put him to sleep… Why are you looking at Se-Ah like that? Well, I guess it would be difficult for the dog to accurately figure out what I put it to sleep with. She knows for sure that Se-Ah killed the wild boar, right?
“Wait a moment. I’ll come back and see if there are more guys.”
Well, I don’t really want to get respect from a dog.
It’s not like I’m going to live with her anyway.
It’s a bit unsettling to leave the girls alone, but she’s not going far anyway and is just circling around, so it’s probably okay.
Besides, there’s Se-Ah who can use super strength and Seung-Hee who can use healing, right? There won’t be much risk. There won’t be any, right?
Humans have a sense of detection, so they can detect an approach, but animals are different.
She can only look with the naked eye.
It would be easy to find a wild boar that size with the naked eye anyway… Still, I think I’ve become too accustomed to detection.
Now that I think about it, I don’t think I’ve ever used flying or scouting with the naked eye. I guess I need some practice for this too.
Looking around, there don’t seem to be any wild boars or other dangers.
Well, even if there is, the wild dog boss will take care of it. When I looked at it, it didn’t look like I would be defeated easily.
After circling around for about 10 minutes, the situation below became a bit strange.
The wild dog boss, who looked very charismatic, was wagging his tail vigorously and making fun of Se-Ah.
“What is it? I went around for a while and something strange happened?”
“Oppa. His name is Rex now. No, I think he was originally Rex. He listens well. Look at this? Bam!”
When Se-ah pretends to shoot a gun, the wild dog boss turns over and pretends to be dead.
“Ha… I thought he was a pretty cool guy…”
“No! It’s great! It’s just that loyalty and cuteness have increased!”
“No… But why am I showing that to you? And what is Rex?”
“Look here. The necklace. It says here on the necklace. REX.”
“Ah…”
“When I found this and called him by his name, he suddenly became very friendly!”
“No, but… Ugh. I don’t know. Are you just following what you say because you seem to be the strongest here?”
“Huh? Is that so? Anyway, I don’t know about that. Let’s see. Is there something like this?”
Se-Ah picks up a tree branch nearby, shakes it a few times in front of Rex’s eyes, and then throws it away.
Perhaps due to the use of incredible strength, the tree branches seem light, but they spin around and fly extremely far.
And Rex sees that and runs after it at full speed.
Not long after, it returns with a branch in its mouth and sits in front of Se-ah, spinning her tail like a windmill.
“Wow. Good job, Rex. Good job.”
Se-Ah holds a tree branch and strokes her head.
“Really… If anyone looks at it, it looks like we grew up together for several years?”
“Oppa. What do they eat?”
“No way.”
“Can they live in the yard of the house where our bunker is?”
It feels like something is developing too quickly… Looking at the relationship between Se-ah and Rex now, I can’t help but tell them not to do it.
No… There’s no need to tell me not to do it. It doesn’t matter if you grow it in the yard anyway.
Besides, if you have a dog, you might be able to take care of some unnecessary threats.
“But you guys have some plan, why are you cheering on Se-Ah like that?”
When I spoke to Seunghee and Mina, the two women looked at each other with irritation.
“No… That’s it.”
“Hmm…”
After thinking about it a little, I think I know why.
“Puppy?”
“Hundreds of millions…”
“Tsk. How did you know?”
“The way you think is because your head is transparent.”
“Uh… Is that much?”
Seunghee covers her head with both hands as if covering it.
Ugh. Will it be covered like that?
“It doesn’t matter to me. As long as you don’t keep them inside the house, it doesn’t matter if you have a dog or a cat in the yard. If it’s in the yard, it doesn’t matter if you have an elephant or a rattlesnake.”
“Oh!?”
“What!? Hey! That’s what it says!”
Se-Ah grumbles, saying, ‘Why does a man say two things with the same mouth?’, But he completely ignores it.
This gas. I’ll have to see how they react if I show them a snake sometime.
I said I was going to run away because I was scared…
“Anyway. Do whatever you want. Then… Se-ah.”
“Uh… Huh?”
“Bring that wild boar carcass. No, there’s no need to carry it, just drag it.”
“Where?”
“They said they were raising it!”
“Ah. Okay. All the way home?”
Se-ah approached the wild boar and seemed to be thinking about where to catch it for a moment, then grabbed its molar.
Then Se-Ah starts to drag herself along.
“What is he? Rex? Anyway, tell him to follow me too.”
“Rex. Follow me!”
As soon as Se-ah spoke, Rex immediately followed.
Under. Wow, the hierarchy was caught in a weird way.
Are you following Se-ah, who took care of the enemy in front of her, rather than Mina, who cured the disease, or Seung-hee, who cured her subordinates?
The animal world is truly unknown.
We dragged the wild boar carcass back to the bunker.
“Then… Tell him to bring all his men here.”
“Huh? Wait a minute. How should I say something like that?”
“I don’t know that. Please tell me somehow.”
“Huh? No! How can you be so irresponsible!?”
“Irresponsible. I have no responsibility for raising these guys. So the word irresponsible doesn’t fit. It’s you who should be responsible. You.”
Se-Ah is left speechless by my words. He stands and looks at Rex and the boar carcass alternately, as if he is thinking about something.
“I’ll go in, so you can take care of it yourself. Seunghee and Mina will also be there to help if there’s anything they want. And everyone should wash themselves thoroughly when they come into the bunker. No matter how disease-free they are, I don’t want the bunker to get dirty.”
After saying that, I turned around to go into the bunker, but I missed something, so I looked at Se-ah again.
Se-Ah was caught making a funny face at me.
“Ugh. It’s a child, it’s a child.”
“Kyaaak! Don’t treat me like a child!”
“What you’re doing is childish, so how can you not do it!”
After saying that, I entered the bunker.
I was going to say something, but I forgot. No way. Gas or something. If I remember later, I’ll tell you.
