Sleepman of a Ruined World 497

Chapter 497 – 497. Removing Constraints 1

“Hey, brother! Wake up! Quick!”

Clearly I was sleeping soundly.

After confirming that Igor was in Vladivostok and finishing work in Moscow, I returned home and fell asleep.

But morning. And Se-Ah climbs on top of me and shakes me.

“What… Who came in?”

“No… It’s not like that.”

“Ah… But you woke me up. That’s brave… Just try not to be a big deal.”

I am sensitive about sleep. And not only SeAH but everyone knows it well.

Therefore, I rarely wake up like this until I wake up naturally.

Like I said, unless someone breaks in, there’s no way I’m going to wake up… What is it?

“Oppa. Do you know a skill called ‘restriction release’?”

“What…?”

I slowly woke up, trying to shake off the half-awake sleep. It doesn’t seem urgent, so you can take your time.

When I got up, I came face to face with Se-Ah, who had climbed on top of me.

Too close distance. Just the right angle to bury your face in the crook of her neck.

“Ahh… It tickles! It stings!”

“Huhahuhaha.”

People want to do more if they are told not to do it, right? He rubs her chin and breathes into Se-ah’s neck, who pulls away because it’s tickling.

Se-ah is caught by me and is tickled by my rough beard and breath.

“Don’t do it! It tickles! Kwaaaaah.”

I look at Se-Ah, who has been playing around like that for a while and has been hurt to the point of tears.

Ah. Fun. Strangely, I want to harass you.

Se-Ah looks angry as she wants revenge, but has no way.

The expression on his face says, ‘Should I use my super strength?’ But that doesn’t mean anything, does it? We’re just wasting each other’s stamina.

“Mr. Woo, don’t say anything.”

“You’re going to do it?”

When I look at him with an angry expression, he ends up sighing and giving up.

“Oh, really. Just wait and see. I’ll remember everything.”

“You said that. But… What? Restrictions lifted?”

“Ah. That’s right. A skill. There wasn’t that skill in the skill table you gave me? Do you know what it is?”

“Restrictions removed. Restrictions removed… Is this your first time hearing that? There is no such skill.”

“No, there is. It came out to me.”

“Huh?”

“I just mastered damage reduction, right? But when I looked at the skill list, there was that skill!”

“Really? The name is Unrestricted?”

“Uh.”

“Wait. Do you Tier 13 now?”

“Uh… I’ve mastered twelve skills, so I’m Tier 13, right?”

What? It’s a skill I really don’t know about. If it’s a Tier 13 skill, there’s no way I would have missed it.

I’ve looked at the skill list a few times since then… If I missed that, there must be something wrong with my eye color.

It won’t be my problem. So what you can think about is…

“Hidden skill?”

“Huh?”

“No… Let’s think about it for a moment.”

It doesn’t exist for me, but only for SeAH? So in the end, it’s conditional.

But I don’t think there’s a skill like that that appears in some people and doesn’t in others.

Of course, I haven’t seen everyone’s skill list, so I can’t be sure… At least I can understand to some extent because I have seen Seung Mi Se-an’s four women.

It appeared in the skill list and there was a notice that prerequisite skills were required. But is it like this?

It’s not impossible. However… Uh? Wait.

“Let’s go out.”

I came out to the living room and called Seunghee, Mina, and Anna. When everyone talks about SeAh’s restriction lifting skills, they look like they are hearing this for the first time.

“You didn’t have anything like that, right?”

“There was none.”

“Yes.”

“Me too.”

While I was working hard in Moscow, Seunghee mastered detection and filmed animal detection.

Mina also mastered ice arrows and took small freezes, and Anna also mastered taming, and she is now skilled in solo dance.

All three women are Tier 13. When they became Tier 13, there was no story like that.

So then it’s the same as me.

In the end, there is only one thing to think about.

A skill that can only be learned if you have a specific skill.

In the end, it would be correct to view it as a hidden skill.

If only you show up and others don’t, it’s a hidden skill.

“Is it because of to unlock?”

Seunghee’s words. Everyone hears the story and nods that it is plausible.

I think the same thing. That’s all I can think about right now.

“Is unlocking a special skill?”

“Well, it’s a bit of an unusual skill, right? But I’m not sure for sure.”

“Hmm. Well, none of us have skills like unlocking.”

Seunghee nods. She is right.

Me too, Seunghee, Mina, and Anna don’t have any skills that can be called unnecessary.

Of course, there are Seunghee’s heals and Mina’s disease removal, but when you think about it, these are skills that are highly utilized and highly selected.

Unlocking is a really special case skill category. Because it feels similar to a creation skill.

“This restriction removal skill came out because of unlocking?”

“Wouldn’t it be reasonable to look at it that way? I, Seunghee, Mina, and Anna didn’t show up, so I’m not sure if that’s the only reason you showed up. If your height isn’t over 150, you won’t be able to show up or anything like that.”

“Kyaaak! Why! There! Key! The story! Why! Come out!”

Se-ah clings to me and pinches me.

Since I made the initial decision, they welcome me in silence. What… Because it doesn’t hurt that much.

Of course, if I had used too much force and pinched it, the flesh would have torn off, but that’s not like that, right? That can’t be possible.

“Okay. Let’s say it’s a condition. But… Lifting the restrictions. What is it?”

Restrictions lifted.

It’s a fairly vague skill name. But it’s an unusual name. Lifting restrictions.

“When you say constraints, there are many, right? That message I saw at the beginning…”

“Dying over 70 and not being able to get pregnant?”

“Yes.”

Mina’s words leave everyone in a strange mood.

My heart is pounding a little too. 70 years old. Well, you don’t need to worry about that. It’s still a long, long way off.

And as far as I know, you don’t die when you turn 70. That’s a rule that only applied on the first day.

The second thing is important. Pregnancy.

“No way… If you learn that skill, you will become pregnant…”

Mina’s words sound like she can’t believe them. Okay. That’s it. Lifting the restriction of not being able to get pregnant? Really?

“Okay. There’s no need to worry about this. Se-Ah can learn that skill. And if I work hard for Se-Ah, I’ll see if she gets pregnant…”

Se-ah hit my side, and Seung-hee slapped my thigh.

Mina glared at me, and even Anna looked at me with an expression that said nothing.

“A little! Think about it before speaking! Think about it!”

“No… What’s more certain than that…”

“Is pregnancy the baby’s name!? Huh? Is this something you’re just going to talk about so casually?”

It’s certainly true that I spoke a bit lightly. Talking about pregnancy as if it were some kind of test crossed the line.

“I’m sorry.”

“No matter how much you are my brother, you can’t speak without thinking like that. Be careful.”

“I understand.”

I quickly gave up on Seunghee’s harsh words.

Even if I’m just starting out, 1v4 is impossible.

Besides, it’s true that I did something wrong, so just keep quiet.

“But… I don’t think I will get pregnant or anything.”

To avoid the situation, I told her what I thought, and the four women forgot what I said earlier and listened.

“Why? Why do you think that?”

“Seunghee. Why has this world become like this?”

“Uh… Didn’t you tell me that a while ago? It seems like there are people who enjoy watching humans kill each other.”

“That’s right. It’s just my guess, but that’s the intention. The biggest reason is that there are no corpses left and that you have to kill people to get coins. The same goes for the skills that focus on harming the opponent.”

“But you also have survival skills, right? Creation skills… Like your brother’s regression skills.”

“It wouldn’t be fun if we died quickly. And we shouldn’t be so busy making a living that we neglect killing each other. That’s why we have unlimited electricity and water. We need to build a certain level of infrastructure, so we don’t focus on killing each other.”

It’s a story we all know, but even after hearing it again, the four women’s expressions don’t look so good, as if they’re sick of it.

“That’s the restriction that those guys put in place in the first place. I don’t think that will ever be lifted. Above all… If you get pregnant, that means new coins will be created… But that can’t happen.”

“Why?”

“If you kill one person, you get 500 coins, right?”

“Yes.”

“What about the baby?”

“Ah…”

“What if you make a thousand people pregnant? What if you make 10,000 pregnant? If you make 100,000 pregnant? The baby won’t be able to defend itself. It will die senselessly.”

“No, how could you think like that…”

“Why? Does baby factory sound like such a cruel idea?”

The four women looked genuinely shocked when I said the word baby factory.

Okay. It is not something a proper human being would think about.

However, having seen the world fall apart and seeing all kinds of ugly things, I think it is quite possible.

Of course, the efficiency is shit. It took 10 months and inhumane acts to earn only 500 coins.

But what if humanity is almost gone? What if that’s the only way to get coins?

I don’t know. I really can’t be sure that I won’t.

“But… Then shouldn’t women have to advance to Tier 13? Aren’t the conditions too difficult? I don’t think there will be that many women in Tier 13.”

“I don’t know. What if a man learns that skill?”

“Oh?”

“You don’t know whether not being able to get pregnant is a man’s problem or a woman’s problem, right? What if it’s a man’s problem, and it becomes possible to get pregnant just by having that skill?”

“Ah…”

“You can think about it that way because you don’t know the exact conditions. Of course, it’s all speculation.”

The atmosphere became heavier. Did I say everything too unfiltered? Well, no matter how rough the four women have been through, they are now young women in their early 20s.

This story is too harsh. Because it is not a light story.

“But… I want to have a baby.”

Se-Ah suddenly speaks out of nowhere.

Everyone laughs at her words like that? I look at Se-Ah with an expression like this.

“I wanted to have a child too! I thought it would be nice to become a mother someday! But we can’t do that! So I hope it happens.”

It’s very unexpected. If Seunghee or Mina had said something like that, I would have understood by nodding her head.

But Se-Ah? I can’t imagine.

“Seya. But that doesn’t mean you can’t use skills because of that…”

Seunghee speaks to Se-ah in a slightly embarrassed tone. Although embarrassed, his tone is cautious.

“I know. And honestly, I don’t think I’ll ever get pregnant. I don’t think there will ever be a baby born again in this shitty world. Don’t you think it will have other effects? Everyone is so focused on pregnancy. I think there are a lot of other restrictions.”

“Other constraints?”

When Mina asks, Se-ah answers right away.

“The Internet doesn’t work. Smartphones don’t work. Guns don’t work, bombs don’t work. Is there one or two things that don’t work? It could be something like that, right?”

“Ah…”

That’s right. I didn’t think of that. I was so preoccupied with being pregnant.

At least it’s a useful skill even if the limitation of not having GPS is lifted, right?

I don’t even want the internet. But if the Internet is released, it will be great.

There will be no newly created information, but even if we could only search for information that existed before, where would it be?

“Then learn it. You don’t have any urgent skills right now anyway. Just learn it.”

“I was planning on learning anyway, even if everyone tried to stop me?”

Then he raised his hand and pressed it into the air.

“Hey. Still, learn the passive and learn the skills.”

“Oh, really. Don’t you think I’m such a fool?”

Se-ah said and pressed the air.

“Huh?”

“Why?”

“This… Is 500,000?”

“What?”

“It costs 500,000 to learn a skill.”

“Is it passive!?”

The image of pressing the air vigorously without answering. Then he looks at me with an absurd expression.

“It’s passive.”

When I think about it, I think passive makes a little more sense. Because you can’t use a skill every time to solve each restriction.

Anyway, it’s a complete mess. Passive. So whatever it is, it becomes an essential skill, right?

“But… How should I check this?”

Se-ah looks at him as if he doesn’t know what to do. I told her right away.

“Take out your smartphone first!”

“Ah…”

Then he hurries to find his phone. And we looked at her like that with excitement.
