‘You need a house first.’

In my old life, I didn’t need a house.

Because the government provided accommodation.

To be honest, most of them were homeless.

That way, I could save time and fight strong monsters.

But now it’s different.

I have a family, and I need a home to be with my family.

‘Let’s buy a house first.’

two days later.

“I’ll take this house.”

I decided to buy a new detached house in very good condition.

I even finished signing the contract.

It seems inevitable that I will have to postpone my retirement.

Originally, I was going to retire immediately after earning this much, but this was really unavoidable.

Now I have a family to be responsible for.

Upon returning home, Jinsol Cha asked.

“Brother, why are you so excited?”

“what?”

“Is that the look on your face when you said your mom and dad were going somewhere when you were young?”

“What do you mean?”

“That’s why, that expression when I secretly played games when I was young.”

“It’s not like that.”

“What, do I not know you?”

I explained slowly and well that it wasn’t like that.

I’m a person whose dream is to finish third in non-combat classes, retire quickly and live happily.

I couldn’t be too happy just because my playing time increased.

“It’s like buying a house.”

“Hey, you bought a house? What kind of house?”

“I’ll pay the balance and show you.”

Before moving, I showed it to Cha Jin-sol first.

“Mmm, crazy. A detached house with a yard in Seoul?”

“It’s new.”

The house was designed and built by a famous architect and bought within a few months, but the landlord suddenly moved to the United States or something.

“Your brother bought this?”

“uh.”

“How much?”

“About 6 billion.”

“crazy!”

Cha Jin-sol kept checking again and again to see if she had been deceived.

I asked if it was right to buy a real house.

After showing the real estate contract, Cha Jin-sol trusted me.

And he asked me carefully.

“Oh, are you going to live alone?”

“If I was going to live alone, I would just be homeless… … .”

no,

“I don’t need a house this big and nice.”

“Then, will you let me live here?”

“What are you talking about? I bought it to live with you in the first place.”

Jinsol Cha suddenly jumped at me with a big smile.

He tried to hug me, so I hurriedly used the relay barrier.

A transparent barrier formed between us, and there was no physical damage.

A few days later, my family moved into this house.

It was a bit difficult to convince my mom and dad, but they pretended that I had succeeded in a huge project and received support.

It didn’t look like I believed it very much, but it wasn’t a big problem.

“To live in a house like this… … .”

Mom’s reaction made me very proud.

It was a kind of euphoria I had never felt in my previous life.

Dad woke up every morning and put his heart and soul into gardening, which was nice to see.

‘I have to work hard to earn money.’

It costs a lot of money to maintain a house of this size.

I guess I will have to play for a little longer.

‘And I need to know about Jeon Nam-gil in advance.’

Jeon Nam-gil, the serial killer who slaughtered my family.

I don’t know if I’ve awakened as a player at this point or not.

At that time, I lost my reason and was in a hurry to just kill it.

After the Lim Kkeok-jeong incident, Song Ha-young listened to me very well.

-Jeonnam-gil? Awakening is a serial killer? Is there a crazy person who makes that kind of thing as an awakening name? All right, I’ll try to find it as soon as possible.

* * *

I turned on the broadcast as usual.

“Acquired an achievement that completely nullifies all attacks of toad-type monsters below level 100 when using defensive attributes or skills.”

We are filming a trailer video.

“Among the posts posted by a prophet named Kim Shin-won, there is something about the first disaster that will happen to Korea.”

Kim Shin-won prophesied many things.

Among them, there was a content about a monster called ‘Emergency Island’ that would appear in Yeosu.

“Early June 2022. A giant toad-shaped monster will appear.”

Bisang Island is a monster in the form of a toad with wings.

I remember being level 80.

“This will be the first monster to drive humans out of their habitat.”

And it becomes true.

A lot of people get eaten by Byeongseon Seo, and people end up running away from Yeosu.

This is not just a problem that will only happen in Yeosu, it will happen a lot in the future.

Humans and monsters are constantly fighting over territory.

‘It’s not for nothing that Yeonhui-dong, where Suhosu grew up, becomes the most expensive place in Korea.’

Oh, and by the way, the army is also useless.

As we saw in the case of the King Toad, a special protective shield is created for monsters that exceed a certain level.

The shield nullifies modern weapons.

At a later date, scientific weapons that can neutralize the shield again may be developed, but anyway, that is a thing in the distant future.

‘Come to think of it, is he the one I caught?’

I forgot because it was so long ago, but he was the one I caught before returning.

Looking back, I almost died then.

For reference, I think my level was around 70 at the time.

I leveled up a little in the past few days, so my level is 48.

“I’m thinking maybe I should give it a try.”

This is not because I am crazy.

It has such a good achievement effect, but it’s a pity not to use it.

‘If I fight him, will I be able to bring out my latent skills again?’

The moment I fought the King Toad.

At that time, I felt like I was back in the days of the Sword King.

He fell into a trance and focused entirely on the battle.

I focused all my nerves on the tip of the blade and fought him as best I could.

As a result, the latent skill ‘Anticipation’ was activated.

After the battle, when I checked again, the anticipation was gone.

‘I want to bring it out again.’

Whether it’s my job or my mind, it melts somewhere.

The desire to make it a real skill rather than a latent skill wriggled.

‘Because it’s just a low-level skill.’

If it’s a very high-level high-ranking skill, I won’t even be greedy like this.

Again, this is a low-level skill, so I’m greedy.

Only at low levels would you be able to enjoy this sense of joy and direct raiding.

“I will only make it up to level 50 and challenge it later.”

At level 50, the skills acquired at level 40 are strengthened.

I thought that if I strengthened the time multiplier shooting and fought with the achievement effect, it would be worth fighting against the Byeongsang Island Girl.

I’ve calmed down a bit now too.

In the past, I would have just blindly pulled out my sword and fought, but now I thoroughly prepare and calculate.

I feel like I’ve grown a lot, so I’m a little proud.

‘sounds fun.’

Eventually I reached level 50.

-Bangsang Island, a monster in the form of a toad that appeared near Yeosu City Hall… …

-Large damage continues… … .

In the news every day, the contents of emergency service were plastered.

Thousands of people died as a result of the emergency.

Thousands of people fled Yeosu and fled to nearby cities.

Shinwon Kim’s prophecy was spread among quite a few people, but few people believed in it and escaped in advance.

‘The people who broadcast like that to evacuate in advance and didn’t go even after giving a warning were idiots.’

I’m not sure why either.

When I was a civil servant, the hardest thing for me was dealing with citizens.

Monsters can be knocked down, but anyway, controlling citizens is the most difficult.

There were so many kids who didn’t listen to me, saying that they were dying, but they were talking about conspiracy theories.

I also decided to go down to Yeosu to see it.

“It’s an object with an excessively high level, so I’d rather go alone.”

* * *

‘Ah, again, it’s too basic, so I missed it.’

All public transportation to Yeosu was blocked.

In the past, if there was something like this, they would take a helicopter or provide a vehicle.

FYI, I don’t even have a driver’s license right now.

In the end, I had to call Kim Jung-hyun.

“Give me some tea.”

“where… … go… … Yo?”

“Yeo su.”

Kim Jung-hyun opened his eyes wide.

“I… … together… … peel?”

“no. It’s too dangerous.”

No, I’m going to fight that dangerous guy.

Seeing him make a sad face when he said he wouldn’t hug me, he must be a crazy person too.

There were only these guys around, so I didn’t know what was strange on my own.

The reason I went crazy was because of these guys.

Anyway, I got into Kim Jung-hyun’s car and moved to Yeosu.

‘Wow.’

It became a ghost town like this because of just one level 80 field monster.

I sent Kim Jung-hyun back.

Although the military’s weapons are not very useful, they still need to block the passage of soldiers and perfect citizen control, but there doesn’t seem to be such a system right now.

‘It’s messier than I thought.’

When I was a civil servant, I couldn’t have imagined anything like this.

I was able to enter Yeosu easily.

‘Mmm.’

There were also bodies that had recently died.

Judging from the item he was holding in his hand, he seemed to be a player.

‘There are crazy people besides me.’

Recently, a scouter-type player revealed that the level of emergency response is about 80.

FYI, the player died on the spot.

The drone was launched to confirm the death of the player, but the player was laughing.

Most people didn’t know what that expression meant, but I certainly did.

He must have been happy to be the first to check the level of the most powerful monster in the current era.

After all, the world is wide and there are many crazy people.

‘Where do you want to be?’

This person lives in a radius of about 3 km centered on Yeosu City Hall.

It used to live near the roundabout in front of Yeosu City Hall, but now it seems to have gone hunting.

“There are many bodies piled up. It’s as if someone purposely built it up. It’s like a pantry.”

I got close to the corpses.

“It smells pretty nasty.”

This smell, along with the smell peculiar to a corpse, is due to the bodily fluids of an emergency agent.

In the middle, drones flew around.

I didn’t want my face exposed for no reason, so I put on the ‘mask of the deceiver’.

“There is sticky bodily fluid on it.

──────────

[Bodily Fluids of Emergency Devotion]

emergency body fluids.

It is a poison that paralyzes the nervous system of living organisms and has the effect of preventing decay.

──────────

‘The relayer’s view’ revealed much more information to me.

Whiing-

The wind blew.

The tattered car door swayed in the wind.

‘Ah, it feels good.’

This tension, not knowing when an emergency will appear.

This pleasant sensation awakened all my nerves.

“I’ll try this poison myself and see if the achievement effect and my defensive characteristics are well combined.”

I’ll probably die if I eat it.

You have to eat it with your own body to accurately feel the power and plan well for fighting.

I activated the achievement effect after using the Relay Barrier.

Nullifies all damage from toad-type monsters below level 100.

‘The bodily fluids of monsters are disgusting as ever.’

Read at noblemtl.com

Gulp.

I swallowed it.

‘indeed?’

My level is 50.

The bodily fluids of a level 80 monster must of course be fatal to me.

Originally so.

‘Okay!’

The synergy between relay barriers and achievement effects seems to work well.

“Fortunately, nothing is wrong. However, I realized one thing. It seems that you have to use relay barriers according to the moment the damage is applied. Timing is very important.”

Intermediate barriers are not omnipotent.

It would be nice if the Relay Barrier were always active, but at my current level, that is impossible.

It must be used precisely at the moment the damage is applied.

If I don’t get the timing right and get attacked by the emergency agent, I’ll die instantly.

‘My heart tickles.’

Although I’m not crazy, this tension made me happy.

“For now, let’s hide among the piles of corpses. I don’t know when he’ll be back.”

I dug between the corpses.

I waited there for about 3 hours.

As the sun was getting dark, I felt a strange sensation.

Even though there is no sound and it is invisible to the naked eye, this sense of presence is felt.

‘It’s a monster.’

There was no doubt that an emergency was approaching.

I looked up at the sky.

From far away, something like a helicopter was flying towards us.

[LV83/Emergency Island/Skill/First Button of Yeosu City Scenario]

It was definitely an emergency island.

There were things that were supposed to be human beings in his mouth.

‘Yeosu city scenario?’

A scenario is something like a large-scale story quest, in which several quests come together to form a single story.

The Yeosu City scenario is a city-level quest that will only come into existence two years from now.

I couldn’t think for long as to why that already existed.

The emergency crew landed and was approaching this way.

‘It’s strong.’

He was the one who barely hunted at level 70 during the days of the Sword King.

‘Now my level is 50.’

If I can hunt at my current level, then I can say that I have grown more than then.

You can see that I overcame myself then.

That fact really excited me.

‘more.’

You should come a little closer.

‘more.’

He came closer and tossed some of the corpses he was holding in his mouth.

‘now.’

I said little

“Let’s start hunting now.”
