Sleepman of a Ruined World 560

Chapter 560 – 560. Tokyo 1

Open the gate, open Hokkaido, and go over with Geomseong.

“Oh my! You arrived so quickly!? I guess you just finished what you wanted to do!”

“Yes. I was able to cheer up thanks to the meal Haruka prepared for me. Oh, by the way, and this person will be staying here with you from now on. Wouldn’t it be burdensome or uncomfortable?”

“Oh? Stay here with me? Ugh… Is it okay for you to stay in such a shabby place? I haven’t even cleaned it at all…”

“It’s okay. You don’t have to worry about that. I’m just asking if you’re okay.”

“Of course it’s okay with me! It’s what an angel does, so how could I not like it!”

As I was talking to Haruka like that, the Sword Master looked at me as if I were some strange person.

Well, it might seem like that. Haruka’s blind faith, and my strange way of speaking.

No matter how you look at it, it looks suspicious.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Haruka Ishikawa!”

When a bright Haruka greets him, Sword Saint replies with a little hesitation.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Aki Takahashi. I will be indebted to you.”

“Thank you! It’s a shabby place, but please make yourself comfortable. Oh, it shouldn’t be like this. Please wait a moment. I’ll clean up your room.”

Then, Haruka runs over and cleans up an empty room.

“Hmm. Aki Takahashi? That’s Aki? Autumn? Isn’t it?”

“Can you please stop calling me names?”

“Oh, Neinei. Sword Saint. I dared to be too friendly to you. I’m sorry, Sword Saint. Furthermore, I won’t do that again. Sword Saint.”

“Ugh… Stop talking about being a swordsman. It’s embarrassing, so…”

“What? You didn’t stay still because you liked it? I thought you secretly liked hearing the sound of the Sword Saint.”

“It’s a bit… Shut up. It’s embarrassing…”

“Hmm. Really? Then what should I call you? Can I call you Takahashi?”

“Takahashi-san.”

“I can’t put my finger on it. It’s like sukidashi.”

A swordsman staring at me. I guess it’s a bit weird to do this with Ike’s last name.

“But… How old are you? Why do you keep speaking informally?”

I need to quickly establish a ranking.

You can’t keep speaking informally, can you? Even so, I am a Confucian man from Korea. Why does looking young make you look informal?

“Isn’t it rude to casually ask a woman’s age? It’s really rude, isn’t it?”

“Stop talking nonsense and tell me about your age. Should I charm you?”

“… Twenty-three.”

“What? You’re young? Does being young make it easier for you to speak? Be polite from now on. Um. And from now on, you will be Aki-chan. Oh, that’s good. Stick to your mouth.”

“You really are!”

“Why? Just call me Aki?”

“That… That is…”

“Well, if you feel unfair, you should have been born early. Why are you feeling unfair because you were born late? Don’t you want to be polite? I guess in Japan, people talk carelessly to older people? It’s a country without etiquette or manners.”

“Ugh…”

“My name is Seongcheol. Seongcheol Kwon. So, when you call me from now on, say clearly Seong. Cheol. Sang. Or call me Seongcheolkun. Do you understand? Aki-chan?”

“Ha!”

Aki makes a dumbfounded expression as if she wants to say something but is speechless.

Okay. It’s much better than something like this. The name is pretty, and I love it.

“Everything is ready! Come this way!”

With perfect timing, Haruka comes out and speaks to Aki.

Aki, who was trying to say something but swallowed his words, glared at me slightly and was eventually caught by Haruka.

“Okay then, Haruka. Have a good time, you two. I’ll just leave.”

“Oh my. Are you leaving right away? Well… The angel is always busy, so it can’t be helped.”

Haruka looks sad. And looking at that, Aki looks like he really doesn’t know the answer.

“Treat Aki-chan well, okay?”

“Yes? Yes…”

Haruka’s expression suddenly becomes glum. What? Ah. Surely?

“Haruka. Do you want me to call you Haruka-chan?”

“Huh? Hehe… Actually… That’s right.”

“Okay. I’ll call you Haruka-chan from now on.”

“Thank you! Angel!”

Aki looks really shocked, while Haruka just smiles.

Fun. It’s fun to see pretty kids make colorful expressions. It’s a pleasure to see.

Anyway, Haruka and Aki moved towards the room, and I came out.

Aki, it will take some time… Since we’ve come all the way to Japan, we should look for other guys.

I crossed back to Sendai through a gate that wasn’t closed yet and headed straight south.

The sea appeared quickly. Hmm… The sea. Yeah, it would be easier to follow the coast, right?

After all, there is no place easier to get food than the sea. There is a high probability that there are people.

But surprisingly, there were no people. I think I’ve almost reached Tokyo, but so far I haven’t seen a single person, let alone a fishing boat.

What? Is there not enough people like this? I guess Japan’s population is more than twice that of South Korea? I don’t understand. Are they all dead already?

I was going straight into Tokyo and kept looking around the coast.

As we circle around the place called Chiba, we see a fishing boat.

So, does that mean there are people? When I went near the fishing boat and looked, there were three people on the boat.

Finally, it’s a person. I’m trying to use nullification on my stomach to read some memories… I’m not going out.

What are you doing? Ah. Aren’t area-of-effect skills nullified on ships?

Well, this only applies to places connected to the ground. Is it natural that it cannot be used on ships floating on the water?

Ehh… It’s a hassle. Let’s leave it at that for now. Those fishermen were lucky. They don’t know it, but their lives were saved.

As I continue to climb, I see a port in the distance. Then there must be someone there.

As soon as I went there, I felt a presence. Then… It’s time to gather information.

Building near the port. I found those who were alone and immediately used nullification and sleep and read their memories.

Things I learned by reading the memories of many people.

These are just ordinary civilians. Survivors with only one skill.

And these guys were under the protection of the Kanagawa-gumi yakuza.

Kanagawa-gumi… That’s where the king of the Yakuza is the head.

The Sato guy who had gone to Busan was killed by me, and the guys who found out late that something had happened in Busan quickly shrunk.

In the first place, the king of the Yakuza united several people and made them one, so it would be natural for them to disperse as their central point is lost.

However, since this was the base of the Kanagawa Gumi, its influence seemed to remain.

But it’s funny. I came here by chance, but it’s Kanagawa.

You’ve entered the middle of enemy territory without me knowing, right? Of course, the only enemies left were boring guys.

In reality, the civilians who fish like this don’t seem to be very interested even though they are under their protection.

I care, but what about everything? Feeling like that?

The idea that it doesn’t matter who protects them, as long as it doesn’t harm their daily lives.

Well, this is the same everywhere. Regardless of time or place, the lives of the common people are similar.

The mindset that it doesn’t matter whether the dynasty or political party changes as long as it doesn’t harm their lives.

Then, once crazy people start to gain power, they immediately jump on the popular uprising tree.

What… History has been like this all along, right?

Anyway, it seems like the Kanagawa-gumi are still exerting some influence in the vicinity of Tokyo.

So you’re saying there’s still something left? I guess I should go there sometime.

Yokohama, where their base is located. A city just a little north of where I am now.

It’s a name I’ve heard a lot. It’s a place that pops up a lot here and there.

When I arrived in Yokohama, I scanned the city with a 1.6-kilometer radius scanner.

As the detection radius increases, this becomes easier.

With just a few glances, you can immediately see how many people are in the city.

Besides, it’s even more comfortable in an empty city like this.

Then I discovered a group of humans. It’s nice to see it bustling around.

After looking through clairvoyance and clairvoyance, I can clearly see that they are Yakuza bastards.

Tightly shaved head, tattoos, suit. If that’s the case, it’ll be hard to claim that you’re not a Yakuza.

It flies quickly, then stops nearby and looks inside for a moment.

It’s good because it’s easy to know which Yakuza guys are high-ranking guys.

Those who are standing are alone. The ones sitting are high-ranking bastards, right?

The window was open, perhaps because the weather was nice.

He went inside and swallowed up all the people standing there.

It happened literally in an instant. All but the one sitting in the center quickly go into the storage compartment and become coins.

The last Yakuza caught by surprise and at the same time with telekinesis.

A guy who can’t even use skills because of the telekinetic tentacles stuffed in his mouth.

There’s no need to put me to sleep anymore. The world has become so much better.

Still, if you want to read memories, it’s easier to put them to sleep. Because I don’t know what they’ll do.

Moreover, no matter how much telekinesis you have, it feels uncomfortable to stick a tentacle into a smelly man’s mouth.

Defeasance. And sleep.

Reduction released thanks to invalidation. What. Does not matter. He knocked the Yakuza guy sitting on the chair to the floor, took off his shoes and placed them on his feet.

And memory reading.

Still, this guy was a classy guy. Considering that I suffered in vain, I have quite a few skills.

Of course… Even if there are nine, I’m not very impressed anymore.

Well, now that I think about it, the coins that came in are not bad. Capture 30 people and get about 1.6 million coins.

It’s pretty salty considering it was done in an instant. Of course, it may be because there are a lot of numbers.

This place was like the old headquarters of the Kanagawa Gumi. So, it’s like their first hideout before their power grows.

It’s a fundamental place for these guys. But now, their headquarters is in Tokyo.

Shibuya Ward, Tokyo.

Shibuya. I’m familiar here too. Maybe I know surprisingly much about Japan?

These guys have about 50 people in charge of Kanagawa. So, more than half of the cases have happened to me now.

The remaining guys seem to have gone to explore nearby ports. Hmm… You were lucky. So should we catch them all?

Ah. I really hate this. It’s really annoying to kill them all one by one.

Aki, it would be easier if I called that guy and took care of everything.

Tsk. It’s still a little early. Let’s take it easy. Anyway, the ones left here are the ones who can’t get over six skills.

Moreover, it is difficult for them to grow now.

Unless they go to China and collect coins, it will be difficult to grow anything big in Japan, which has been completely wiped out.

It’s okay. Now that these guys are gone, I have to go to Shibuya.

I immediately swallowed the guy I was reading and wrote down.

After turning into the size of a bee, I took to the sky again and flew towards Tokyo.

That’s what I feel as I fly… There is not much difference here from Seoul. There are no humans left anymore.

A place not much different from a ghost town.

It was a good thing I went to China at the right time.

Limited resources. In the end, it is a world where humans are resources.

There is no way to stop by stamping your feet in front of all the caved-in minerals.

The answer is to play multiplayer quickly.

If I were to settle for peace in an empty Seoul… I guess this happened to me too.

Looking at the sign, I definitely felt like I was in Tokyo. But there are still no humans.

What are we doing in Shibuya when there are no people like this? Is it symbolic?

I don’t know what that means.

Well, that’s not what I’m talking about. I also need to move my base quickly. When are you going to do that again?

Shibuya finally arrived. But surprisingly, there are a few people here.

What? Why is it there? As time goes by, isn’t it normal for humans, who find it difficult to find food, to leave the city?

Are these people who have enough coins to buy food at the store? However… That’s fucking tasteless.

I didn’t get fenced for nothing. If you have coins, you won’t starve to death, but people can’t live by eating only bare food.

The funny thing is, they are not Yakuza.

Relatively young guys. It’s funny because you say I’m young. In the end, they all seem to be around the same age as me.

But the clothes are flashy and what should I say… They seem like friends who have had a lot of fun together.

Most of them are tattooed guys. Are they bastards?

Moreover, the proportion of gyaru is high among women.

Nice… That’s a local gyaru. Seeing it in person, it feels like I’ve finally come to Japan.

But when I actually look at it, I don’t understand why they go around like that. Is that pretty? They’re doing it because they like it, right?

Anyway, it doesn’t matter. I’ll catch one and find out what they’re doing.

What… They might be boring, but I have to check.
