Chapter 3 – 1. Sunae vs. Netori (Ntl) (3)
5.
I don’t know what the sudden urge to do was like that.
At Midwinter’s urging to wear men’s clothes, I checked the main character who reluctantly entered the dressing room. I couldn’t stand it anymore and sneaked up behind her as if possessed.
“Hey, pretty girl. Why are you alone…?”
“I have a boyfriend.”
My hand, which was about to sneak up on her shoulder, was coldly thrown away.
‘Ah, I was rejected…’
Be firm.
He didn’t even look at this side and he cut off the hand that was trying to go up on her shoulder first…
If you’re a blonde tanning bully, then that’s it…
I should not keep using sloppy things and do it according to the rules.
Only then did I come back to my senses, and I quietly put down my embarrassing hand and quietly returned to where I had come from.
As if looking at an insect, he turned his back on her cold gaze.
…It’s too much for people.
I was hurt.
Sniff
6.
Drinking coffee with a grumpy face, the cat continued to chase after the main character for a long time——
‘What am I really obsessed with?’
I’m thinking about it alone, so the peaceful sight doesn’t seem to be a quickie…
Anyway, how is it going well?
The bustling central plaza of the department store was filled with the confused screams of people without realizing it.
“Kyaah ah ah ──!”
“Crab, it’s the gate!!”
“The conspiracy oh oh oh oh oh oh !!”
“The conspiracy oh oh oh oh oh oh !!”
“The conspiracy oh oh oh oh oh oh !!”
The cries of cow calves resound amidst the screams of the frightened people——
It belonged to the Minotaur, a subhuman monster that looked exactly like a cow.
Appearing at an unidentified gate, they roared once so loudly that the mall shook, then started charging at the crowd.
Then, like the horny buffaloes of the savannah, they roam among the fleeing people, making sure they don’t cut their eyes.
Of course, in the place where they passed, there were only lumps of meat full of blood, whose original form was unknown.
‘…’
Unexpected, no. In fact, I had no choice but to harden my face at the terrible scene that I had half expected but unconsciously turned away from.
His clenched fists were already full of sweat.
Reading that it was devastating only in writing and seeing the disaster in real life had a different level of appreciation.
Soon, he thought for a while and shook his head, thinking, “Honestly, it seems like a tragedy that could have been prevented if I wanted to.
‘I wouldn’t have been able to stop it.’
What is the reason for calling it Missing No. In the first place?
It is called Missing No because it is impossible to track its existence with current hunting-related equipment.
In fact, even this was not an official name.
According to the setting, the official name of Missing No was soon to be attached to the gate that the main characters and the party encountered.
In this world, that was the starting point of the overall hardships that the main character and his friends had to fight through during their school days.
The hunter industry, which has completely hardened the system because it relied so much on a device called a gate detector, is in trouble again because of this.
‘But in this situation, a mediocre cadet without any support base insists on a gate that is not caught by detectors?’
Are you planning to become a cadet as well?
Of course, I was glad I was ignored.
I will hear the swearing again.
In the meantime, even if the prophecy is actually true, it is troublesome.
How to make excuses is also a problem.
In the first place, even to this day, he did not know when that would explode.
Like the doomsdayists who believe in a doom that catches the clouds, there was little that could accurately convey something specific to people.
‘If I insisted on closing the department store with that kind of information, people would have listened to me…’
Of course, if I had really given up all my advantages and desperately tried to prevent this from happening, I might have found a way somehow.
However, there was no assumption as meaningless as what if.
I wasn’t good with people until then.
‘…Sorry.’
But that doesn’t change the fact that I neglected it even though I knew it.
In the end, all I can do is apologize in my heart.
It wasn’t that they were saved because of this, but even so, a corner of my heart felt uncomfortable without it, and I felt uncomfortable.
It must be the karma of those who know the future.
To be honest, to be honest, I was a bit… That I only thought of taking advantage of it, even though I knew a tragedy would happen.
‘Alternatively, how did the protagonist in the recurring story know about it, ignore it, and neglect it even after seeing it?’
Ah, is this why the new term cider pass came out…
A protagonist with a personality problem who does not hesitate to commit any kind of crazy thing to give readers a sense of exhilaration!
I wondered if there was another expression that was as appropriate as this to define that look.
‘Anyway, I should refrain from using the knowledge of the original work only for my convenience.’
As usual, as with possession and return, I thought there would be no problem as long as I was present at the site of an accident where a tragedy or disaster would occur.
But it wasn’t at all.
I never thought of myself as good, but I wasn’t so mean that I enjoyed and took advantage of the misfortunes of others.
No less, no more, just right in the middle.
Angry at the injustice right in front of your eyes, and weeping and saddened by the tragedy.
I was an ordinary person who couldn’t turn a blind eye to a tragedy happening close by.
‘Anyway, I can’t be a cold-blooded person who only pursues my own interests like this.’
From now on, when I plan my work, I will benefit from it, but if I can, I will try to be the best for others.
‘Then first…’
It took a while to calm my mind shaken by the terrible sight I encountered for the first time in my life.
Even at this moment, the situation in the department store started to flow exactly as it appeared in the original story.
To be honest, since things have happened this far, I think I’m past the point where I can rectify things right now.
Before entering the academy, that is to say, my current body was lacking in many ways, and it was not a natural disaster, but I had no experience of this type of disaster.
For now, we have to focus on our original purpose.
And just then.
“Uh, what’s going on…?”
“This, crazy…! First of all, don’t look back and jump out——!”
The main characters, confused by the sudden situation, finally started to move.
Still unable to properly grasp the situation, the main character quickly ran away holding the hand of Midwinter, who was asking for it with only his face sticking out from the locker room.
Her body was roughly covered with clothes half-draped.
They ran so frantically that I couldn’t care less about that.
“A conspiracy?”
But it’s already too late.
The vicious platoon head has already taken an interest in the main character’s group.
A minotaur cleverly drove them into a corner, as if it had found an interesting toy.
“Ah, ah—!”
Iron Puduk-!
To make matters worse, the flustered Winter sprained his leg because he suddenly started running without knowing what was going on.
Winter fell, and the main character ran away leaving it as a blind spot.
‘This, crazy? Are you really jumping like that?’
I was taken aback by the unexpected situation.
Because I didn’t foresee this situation.
In the first place, the main character wakes up trying to save her through this incident.
The starting point of the novel I read was a few days from now, so I didn’t know exactly because the scene didn’t come out, but at least I knew that.
‘But what is this…’
What are you doing?
Why did you suddenly run away from there?
Women don’t have the old-fashioned idea that men should protect them, but I think it’s a different story if the conditions of ‘family-like’ and ‘close friends’ are added in front of them.
‘Of course, I also induced this situation to some extent…’
I just want the main character to show a pathetic side as a man.
I tried to save both of them by showing up nicely next to the main character who was so pathetically trembling in fear.
I didn’t anticipate an ugly scene as a man beyond pathetic.
It was a bit of a bleak sight, but it might have been better to capture her heart.
‘Should I go ahead already…’
It’s really a moment of crisis when you look at it.
Now was the perfect time to intervene.
I didn’t know what would happen if I delayed it any longer.
The name of the operation, 『Golden Sun, full of wild beauty, who appeared behind the powerless male protagonist』 Was just an ordinary 『Dark Magician, Foreign Prince (?) From a Faraway Land』.
Of course, that’s not to say that there are complaints or that it’s bad.
Aren’t both of them the standard of the wonderful Golden Sun’s cliché?
Just when I was thinking that,
The protagonist suddenly started screaming at the top of his voice at the Minotaur.
“Hey, you crazy ox-headed bastard——!”
‘Ah… As expected. They just don’t run away.’
I went straight to the main character, bypassing the steps I was about to run to the Minotaur.
Then I thought so.
It seems that the main character was also a boy with two pairs of fur.
He doesn’t run away from his woman.
However, the Minotaur seems to be more interested in the woman right in front of her than her heroine, who has gone behind her.
In the end, the main character tries to return to winter.
I also sneaked up behind the main character.
“Courage is imaginary…”
He even cut off the main character’s neck.
Just because you’ve done neck snatching before, is it dangerous to try it on someone else?
That’s how it is.
‘But if he’s the main character, he won’t die, right?’
Yes, it will, probably.
Grow strong, hero.
“Muh, muh…?”
“What are ordinary people doing dangerously?”
Fortunately, at once, the main character who had lost consciousness and collapsed was put away somewhere out of sight.
If I couldn’t do it once, I was going to do it two or three times.
It’s more of a hindrance than things like this.
So please lie down here quietly.
That’s right, I’m just a prospective cadet at an academy without a hunter’s license overflowing with ‘a sense of justice’ who ‘accidentally’ passed by this area and discovered that an unidentified gate exploded at the right time and a male and female couple of my age were attacked by monsters. ?
So, it is clear that this was an act of pure goodwill without any slander.
‘Ah, I’m just fulfilling my social obligations as a superhuman as I’ve learned.’
Such a courageous and courageous young man in such a dark and gloomy worldview…
If a young man like that jumped into a ferocious and ferocious monster without any defense and was killed without even using his hands, the loss would be obvious even from the perspective of society as a whole.
If I survive without dying here, I will use this incident as an opportunity to grow and become a bigger person.
‘Hehe, so don’t worry and have a good night’s sleep there, young man.’
Even if you don’t do that, you are already a hero.
When you open your eyes, everything is over…
Hehe, this isn’t the end of it.
Puck——!
And a soccer kick against the Minotaur that follows right away——!
“Moo-oh?”
Of course, that wasn’t enough to harm the Minotaur.
It was a blow that was enough to distract the Minotaur.
While the Minotaur looked back at her, her body began to stand between her and the Minotaur.
– Attached Attribute – Confirm that Camouflage Seongse (A) is in front of the original main character Midwinter.
B Momentum increase (D).
– Adjunct Attribute – Evidence (S) as a superior male confirms the existence of an enemy who cannot resist his skills.
– This is the first trial to get a female you like. In order to overcome the unreasonable reality, oneself begins to grow steeply.
ㄴGrowth acceleration (C)
‘…?’
…What?
But how come things get a little weird?
Originally, after the Minotaur caught her attention, he planned to run away with her on his back.
Yes, that is natural in my situation.
If you put your mind to it here, it won’t exist in the first place–
Unlike this goddamn dangerous world with very good access to escaping from daily life, the world I originally lived in was a very peaceful world where there were no life-threatening incidents that made everyday life boring.
‘I’ve never swung my fist properly, but to be honest, it’s impossible to fight monsters.’
I knew my subject.
On the other hand, the Minotaur is a very strong and dangerous monster classified at the end of the D class even within this worldview.
Are you going to have a head-to-head fight with him for being crazy?
The best line was also lined up, and the second line was also lined up.
‘It seems that the actual main character just ran away well until he got help from someone.’
Oh, and the person who helped him was also a woman.
Later, it was a natural flow for him to have a pure love like a slug at the end of an unreasonable love affair with her.
‘However…’
In front of the woman, the strong will of the golden sun, full of bluff, whispered, 『Are you intending to turn your back on the enemy with the woman in front of you?』
Like an invisible hand, no.
It felt like a force was tying my body and free will.
It was the moment when the existence that had been affecting this body from before became clear.
‘Is there really such a thing?’
No, more than that.
Heh heh, this friend, this.
Now I see you’re very good at jokes, huh?
Who sees it and thinks it’s real and not a joke?
…
…
…
‘…’
…You’re kidding, right?
Please say it’s a joke!
No, are you crazy…?
It’s not that I’m going to run away alone, I’m going to run away with you, but why are you fucking?!
It doesn’t matter if we run away together——!!
The blonde, tanned bully was not allowed to appear less than a man in front of females at all times.
I tried to turn around and run away with her on my back, but my feet didn’t move as if glue had been put on the spot.
It looks like I’m going to have to have a fight with this guy.
‘No, no matter how much it’s like that, so damn… You want me to fight with that…?’
I don’t want to believe it, my eyes are not focused on the harsh reality that I am facing right in front of my eyes, and I start to shake.
Sweat is seeping out.
Why is the situation like this now?
Why am I fighting that monster?
The Minotaur was looking down at me from above with fierce eyes, as if asking what you were.
The snort is snoring——! And the swaying hair tickled my cheek.
It is safe to say that its majesty is living violence itself.
Even at a glance, it was clear that he was angry.
The Minotaur’s weight class was the largest among animals I had ever seen with my own eyes.
Even on safari, I have never seen lions and tigers so close.
A bunch of bunches, no matter how you think about it, this isn’t real.
Impossible! Can not! No, no!
Seeing it up close really scared me.
Please don’t joke.
Let go, I’ll run away.
That I would run away with her——!!
As if the Minotaur had sensed something from me blocking the prey it was aiming for, it started responding to it.
“The conspiracy oh oh oh oh oh oh oh !!”
Minotaur’s roaring howl!
That cry meant that they regarded me as an enemy.
Uh huh!
Look at me, he was so excited too!!
You’re not fighting against something like that!
Die! I’m really going to die from this!!
‘I still don’t know how to fight the monsters of this world–!’
I couldn’t help admitting that I had been so reckless and careless.
But come now, what do you do?
Wouldn’t it be better if you had assumed a contingency from the beginning and made some preparations?
Regrets now meant nothing.
‘No, no matter how hard it is, it’s simply impossible with the skills I have right now!!’
However.
Contrary to my confusion in my head, standing in front of a menacing being whose expression is truly a monster (monster), the blood of Gao Chung, Golden Sun, began to boil all over my body.
The spirit is encouraged.
At last, the indomitable cry that he could not be defeated by animals began to erode his reason little by little.
The reason disappears and the color of the eyes starts to reverse.
‘Mr. Ha… Now I don’t even know.’
In the end, I had no choice but to give up and follow my rising spirit and surrender to the stream of consciousness.
It seemed to me that it would be a little more convenient to lose my reason as soon as possible.
The attribute has already been activated anyway, and wouldn’t it be somehow possible to use the power of the attribute that makes even an ordinary person a superman?
Still, Taeyang’s talent is one of the best in this world.
If you keep your mind straight, it can be anything.
No, I had to.
The pure malice that they encountered from the front boiled over with a fighting spirit.
It met the Minotaur’s fighting spirit head-on.
‘Yes, a man dies once, can’t he die twice?’
Come to think of it, it was actually ambiguous to run away now.
Had I completely missed that opportunity?
Has the time passed?
The hero who bravely blocked his way from the monster suddenly turned around and ran away with himself on his back.
It was clear that even I would lose my temper.
She is out of shape as her hero who rushed to save her.
Even if that’s reasonable, people did.
That’s what human emotions are.
So, this is what happened, Pomsaeng Pomsa──
Let’s make it great.
What if not…
‘Are you willing to do more than just die?’
Don’t you know yet
Whether she falls in love with the man’s wonderful struggle to risk her life to save herself.
This is a very likely scenario.
That’s when I was so heartbroken.
I couldn’t wait any longer, breaking this ambiguous confrontation and the Minotaur stretched out his muscular right arm to me.
Full of fighting spirit,
My fraudulent body vision caught it clearly.
‘If it’s this much…’
But just then, another unexpected turn of events occurred.
The smiley face of the Minotaur that I saw in an instant stimulated the golden sun’s courageous spirit in me.
That means that I was also hot.
‘This bastard…?’
That’s how I stretched out my left arm as well.
Even though I, the golden sun, clearly saw the Minotaur’s attack, I chose to face it confidently rather than avoid it.
Fuwak——!!
As our fists collided with each other, my arms were numb.
‘No, sun…’
Are you going to write that it’s not your body?
Ah?
Yes, it was yours originally.
But now it’s mine
It doesn’t mean that I agree with your words and use them recklessly.
If you want to live a long time, you need to handle it more carefully…
[Strength level 1 increase]
[Durability 1Lv. Increase]
“Flaw…!”
It was only then that the excitement subsided and I was able to move my body a little calmly.
It’s late, but me and Golden Sun too.
It was only then that he was able to face his own weakness and the strength of his opponent.
Still, wasn’t this first workshop meaningless?
The Minotaur looked at his right arm and made an unexpected face, apparently in shock.
I couldn’t help but feel the slight surprise on his face.
‘If that’s the case, it seems like it was a pretty good deal.’
Look at me
The Minotaur, who realized that I am not an easy opponent after this workshop, is now a little more cautious…
“Plot?”
But just then
The Minotaur, who had been showing a bit of wariness, looked down at my completely limp arm——
“Conspiracy oh oh oh —-!”
“As expected, it’s weak——” He must have thought, and started attacking again with a sneer on his lips.
“Kheup…”
I came to my senses and hurriedly avoided the Minotaur’s attack, asking the golden sun inside me what it was doing.
I wondered, but there was no way this kind of bluff would work against the Minotaur, a subhuman monster with intelligence.
‘If that’s the case, what did you get from one workshop…’
I’m still at an overwhelming disadvantage, but I only lost one of my precious arms.
It didn’t hurt that much, probably because of the excitement of the battle.
Still, the fact that I got excited about Geum Taeyang’s pointless guest talk only made the situation worse.
Whatever it is, it’s not some kind of cartoon character.
There was a limit to overcoming the situation with only the will to fight against an unreasonably strong enemy without breaking.
Apart from my hot heart beating wildly, now my head has cooled down, and unlike before, I began to strike the Minotaur’s thick arm with my right hand and receive the attack.
Geumtaeyang also didn’t interfere with the next thing, probably because he was embarrassed about what happened a little while ago.
[Skills Level 1 rise]
[Skills Level 1 rise]
[Agility level 1 rise]
It was clear that the struggle was a feat that could not help but be surprising to oneself who had never had a proper fight.
My body moves on its own as I thought.
It was a strange word, but there was no other way to express it.
He fought against the Minotaur in a contradictory state of instinct imprisoned by reason.
“Cheup..!”
But, nonetheless.
It was undeniable that the whereabouts of the fight still went against him because his basic physical abilities were so vastly different.
[Skills Level 1 rise]
I don’t think time passed much, but to me, every moment was a series of thrills crossing the line.
As you can see from the rising stats, I was being beaten as painlessly as possible right now.
“Keugh…!”
Avoid what you really need to avoid.
However, what needs to be hit twists the whole body to somehow reduce the area to be hit.
Sick
Sore
Bitter
Painful.
It’s not once or twice when I get injured over and over and my body loses balance and stumbles.
Even so, I did not allow the golden sun inside me to pass out unseemly between an enemy and a woman.
The feeling that you are really holding on to your consciousness by force.
The face of the Minotaur, seen through the narrowed field of view, is also blurry.
[Physical strength level 1 rise]
“Haha…”
“Conspiracy oh…”
It’s been a long time since I fought with the Minotaur with all my might–
I somehow withstood the Minotaur’s attack.
The barely rising stats made me survive the onslaught.
…No, honestly, the horse endured, but was treated like a toy by the Minotaur, who recognized that I was weaker than himself.
‘If he was sincere, I would…’
His breath is running up to his chest, but he’s not dead yet, so that’s okay.
Did it really happen?
‘It’s a little different from the plan… No, it’s changed a lot, but now I just have to endure a little bit, really a little bit.’
Just then, the Minotaur, who had unfortunately beaten me one-sidedly, suddenly stopped attacking and took a few steps back.
Then, as if he was about to finish it, he put his arms on the floor and stanceed like a runner.
It is the readiness of [Bullfighting Instinct (D-)], One of the Minotaur’s few skills expressed in the novel.
His prank seems to have ended here.
He aims his horns at me and cries low.
“The conspiracy oh oh oh.”
“Whoa…”
I, too, took a quick breath——and looked back.
Winter was still tapping his immovable legs and making a face full of fear.
‘In the first place, I didn’t want a situation where I could use this…’
What I had brought with me was, of course, true.
Hey, that’s what life is all about…
Yet,
I still need more time to hope for someone’s help.
Seureung…
I came to a rough world and carried it in my back pocket in case of any eventuality.
Even though it was beaten unilaterally by the Minotaur, it was never used and still saved for the most decisive moment.
I took out Kim Tae-yang’s hunting equipment – a basic dagger that would break if I stabbed it into the Minotaur’s sturdy body at any moment.
No one has come close yet
There was nowhere to retreat either.
I had to do it myself.
Throw away the soft heart of wanting someone’s help.
I recalled in my heart the determination to engage in the final showdown with him.
‘It ends here.’
This one room will be the last one with him.
