chapter 13
03 : Today, I suffer and live. As usual
A heavy silence continues.
To be precise, only our main character is uncomfortable.
You can’t even make eye contact with me. While trying to talk to her, she pursed her lips as if her tongue had gotten a needle.
It’s the first time I’ve met since I saw him in Mr. Cuckoo before, but I wonder why he wants to say so much.
Since I am concentrating on the purpose of getting earwax out of my ears, I continued thinking without paying attention to what the main character did when he saw me.
I am standing in the middle of a park about 30 minutes away from the residential area where birdies were found.
The main character and I are standing inside the barrier that was set up to protect us, the bait.
And there was only the purple-haired delivery boy who came to Nokla’s house and put the curse on me.
Even though the exorcists said that this courier kid has a thick reverberation from being cursed by Saetani before me, so we protect it together in case of an emergency.
In my eyes, it seems like I’m doing the groundwork because I want to take that kid with spiritual power to the academy, not just for the above reasons.
Of course, it’s none of my business, so just ignore it. I rolled my eyes in wonder and looked around.
When I looked around, I saw a park without a single person even in the middle of the day. At the same time, it gave off an atmosphere that would be appropriate to describe it as gloomy.
This expression may be a little strange because there are no people, but the park now is not simply without people.
A person with a normal sensibility will feel the same way as I do, as the black wall completely blocks the outside scenery in the form of a half dome, as if enclosing the park.
Even though there are black walls that make it completely invisible from the outside, the inside is bright as if the sun is coming down, so I wonder what the hell is going on.
They say that black wall is a barrier that will protect us from Saetani in case of an emergency.
I hardly ever watch comics or movies, and the only thing I watch are web novels.
No matter how you look at this black wall, it doesn’t seem like a sacred image like a barrier protecting something. Rather, it was an image that sealed something.
…… In case the dog poop is caught here by Grandma and says, ‘I want to go to the academy! Or else I’ll starve to death here!’
“Is that a real barrier?”
“- Ah! Yes It’s definitely a barrier to prevent invasion. There is no problem going out from the inside, but it is a structure that blocks what comes inside from the outside. It’s simple, but that’s why it’s a stronger barrier!”
I murmured out of curiosity, and the main character, who had somehow heard the small voice, explained what kind of barrier it was.
I put something everywhere, and I even put a casting to create the concept of containment, so I said that even if it was a possessed body, it wouldn’t be easy to enter.
I couldn’t understand what the main character was saying, so I chuckled.
What is the connection between spiritual power and leyline?
As the awkward atmosphere continued in its own way, it seems that the main character caught up with what I said and explained about the barrier in order to break the atmosphere.
Neither I nor the girl with purple hair understood the main character’s words in this place.
The main character realized that opening his mouth to somehow resolve the awkwardness made the situation even more awkward, so he shut his mouth.
The purple-haired girl doesn’t seem to be very friendly either.
I’m not interested in what they do, so I could see that only our main character was frustrated and was going crazy.
No, to be precise, you seem to want to have a conversation with me, but since I’m not interested, would it be right to go crazy?
I am not hurting Pinto because of what I said before. It’s annoying.
I saw that I kiIIed brother O. The more I get involved, the more I’m going to be bothered. So I’m ignoring it
Honestly, isn’t what the main character said by the little boy about to throw mud at me while playing ball?
The main character right in front of you. An androgynous handsome man with blond hair and red eyes, he is a kid who doesn’t even show sensitivity.
I didn’t know last time because I was exhausted and looked past. It doesn’t just look young, it’s short, and the uvula doesn’t come out! Did the dick grow hair?
I let out a sigh of relief.
Looks like the main character must have gone through everything as I remember. Then, you are in a state where you ate a friend on an equal footing with that dangerous divine spirit.
I know that eating a friend with a god is a great thing by the standards of the world in this game.
According to my brother who said that the theme of this game is dialogue, understanding and equal friendship.
He said that understanding each other between the spirits and humans is like a miracle that the north pig and we reconcile with each other and eat best friends while working out at the gym.
Since you’ve done such a ridiculous thing, you don’t know exactly what the twat named Young-hyeong is doing, just saying that he’s a dangerous guy around you.
This little boy must have had his pride ignited.
I even became friends with the spirits! No matter what people around you say, you can understand each other through conversation with O! I would have thought something like that.
I am the one who accomplished such a difficult task! While hiding the same true feelings.
It’s obvious. Like the kids think.
Your younger brother said that he also used that child’s feelings to approach this unusual protagonist.
Become friends with the divine spirit and try to observe the exorcist who even received that power, and get influenced by him. It’s clear that I remember that was originally the story of Young Hyung.
Of course, now that I’ve searched, f*ck the influence.
Anyway, I have no ill feelings towards the main character. Rather, I just want to avoid the annoying things that will happen by getting involved with this main character.
…… But was Sipal originally a game that throws minors like this into the battlefield?
When I saw the main character’s appearance, I felt that it was absurd.
Usually, when the secondary s*x characteristics come in the early and mid-teens, the males will have a uvula and their hair will be thick and dark, but the main character in front of them seems to have a milk smell, let alone hair.
He’s not that short, but there’s no trace of secondary s*x characteristics at all. It’s not painful, but it’s a bit worrying.
Is the academy a place that accepts elementary and middle school students? Even throwing a child like this to fight a monster that kiIIs people like a demon?
Around the time I thought it was right not to pee near the academy.
For a moment, I felt a gaze behind my back, so I hurriedly turned around.
There was an apron jeans pervert that had previously been hanging from the veranda of Nokla’s apartment.
I was terrified to see the pervert hiding in the chrysanthemum flower field in the park with flowers in my ears as if to let people know that Ji was a spoiled bastard, and tried to inform the people next to me.
Before I could even open my mouth, the pervert, wearing an apron and jeans, grinned and showed off her yellow teeth before disappearing.
…… They said it was a barrier that couldn’t be entered from the outside, but it seems like it was easily breached.
I raised my hand to let the main character next to me know about it- and then quietly lowered it again.
I knew what was going to happen anyway, but even if I made a fuss for no reason, nothing would change.
The main character and that purple-haired girl are taken by Saetani instead of me, and I am attacked by slanderers. That was certain
Before I came here, I heard what Dog Poop saw from Grandma.
What her grandmother saw was that I was about to be decapitated for the last time with a knife stuck in my stomach by the perverted man who had just run away.
It was said that it was a scene where many slanderers around me were laughing at me.
Those slanderers asked me if I was a believer because they were wearing black scarves, a sign that they were subordinates of Hyungyeong.
The important thing now is how to avoid that moment of crisis.
I know that the scene that Grandma saw dog poop definitely happens in real life.
But that pervert in jeans looks weaker than me no matter how you look at it. Why am I in such a situation?
Aside from that guy in the jeans, were there any other slanderers who were stronger?
There are several methods that come to mind, but they are only those that are close to actual delusion.
I turned on the store and looked around, thinking about what to do to get past this crisis, but I couldn’t come up with a way-
…… No wait a minute They even dig bombs. Crazy.

—————-
A store that sells weapons such as knives and spears as well as guns and bombs.
I was amazed at what I saw in the whitish shop window that floated in front of me. Decided.
If the number of heads is high anyway, wouldn’t it be the answer to explode together?
I bet even the slanderers would be surprised if I suddenly pulled out the dynamite.
If you think the situation that the dog poop grandmother told you about has happened, throw dynamite straight away and see.
Those who kiII people do not like to die. Even idiots who have completely tasted it can’t help but be surprised when they see dynamite suddenly lit.
It’s not dynamite, but I’m sure I know the usefulness of explosives because I’ve had experience running away from guys who were trying to steal organs with similar home-made explosives.
It’s rough, but after making a countermeasure, I waited for what would happen next.
I don’t know if throwing a bomb and looking at it can be considered a countermeasure, but anyway, I still looked around the inside of the park that I could see after seeing the main character who was still paying attention.
The park, where you can hear neither the chirping of insects nor the sound of the wind blowing, was as quiet as before.
Currently, with the appearance of Saetani, the evil spirit of A-level slander, exorcists who can fight are said to be gathered in residential areas with territories.
The exorcists who came to escort me and the girl with purple hair are guarding it outside this barrier.
The main character is really on the sidelines to evacuate us in case of emergency.
Currently, the exorcists’ plan is simple. If a birder takes the bait and leaves the area, it is treated as a dagul.
Not coming out? If the person cursed by the demon is nearby and doesn’t react, it’s not a demon.
But since we don’t know exactly what skiIIs this guy has, they say he put a barrier like this just in case.
How did the non-radiators break through that barrier and get here?
If Hyung-yeong was there, he would have done something with the power of that great divine spirit. Now Hyung-yeong is behind…….
“Ah.”
I immediately came up with the simplest answer to the question that came to my mind. It was just hiding in the park.
I don’t think the guys who even found the apartment where Nokla lives couldn’t have figured out where the decoys would be protected, so they must have been sneaking around in the park.
Considering that the perverted apron appeared a while ago, that assumption would be the most plausible.
…… Does that mean they’re already here watching me with bated breath- I feel dirty.
Let’s kick our tongues and get a little annoyed at the fact that we’re not being pretty, we’re being stalked by criminals who kiII people. The main character shuddered at what was so stinging.
Why did he still sit there looking at you?
No matter how the main character is, since the person who came as an escort is doing this, I can see the purple-haired deliveryman rolling his eyes in anxiety.
Even if you keep trying to pretend you don’t know, it’s rather annoying to leave it like this.
So I let out a deep sigh and said, lamenting that I was a very weak-minded person.
“Do you have anything to say?”
“- Yes. There was something I really wanted to say.”
When I open my mouth, the main character stands in front of me and looks straight at me as if he had waited.
Previously, when our eyes met Lee, the main character was angry at me for kiIIing Hyung-yeong, and later, after hearing me, he realized what he was saying and looked shocked.
I can still see the guilt in the main character’s red eyes, but somehow he had the eyes of a determined person.
In my experience, people’s eyes like this bother me no matter what.
While looking into the eyes of the main character, whose head is about half as small, and recalling bad memories, the main character suddenly bent his waist at a right angle in front of him.
I won’t say anything about people bending down because it’s my freedom and my body.
A kid who always behaved like a dog who wanted something like this. By the time the stupid idea of doing it fills my confused head.
The main character continued as if he was going to further fuel my confusion.
“Really! Sorry! I made a mistake without knowing anything! She…… I don’t know what exactly it is. Just forcing my thoughts around…… Such a mess…… I am so sorry!”
The main character looks as if he would fall to his knees if I said anything.
I admired the main character who apologized for being so sorry while shedding tears.
When a person has a problem, the easiest solution is I’m right! It is a self-rationalization called Not justifying yourself, admitting your mistakes and apologizing!
“What happened that day…… I didn’t tell anyone except Ms. Nokla. If he…… I won’t tell other people. I did say it though. If, if anything happens because of my stupidity, I swear. I will help you.”
The main character rolled his eyes, saying that he would never do anything stupid again.
I even said that, so cheer up. I was going to say that, but I decided to stop.
I’m not someone who knows anything about him. Because people are kind-hearted, even if you just tell them to live the way they want to, it’s clear that they’ll live well on their own.
Even if you are suddenly thrown into another world, you will be friendly with people, protect what you will protect, and live well- Yes, it reminded me of my younger brother a bit.
No. The main character walks down the street and suddenly he doesn’t whine, so he must be a better person.
I started to feel sorry for thinking for a moment that I looked like a kid who was like my younger brother.
“Enough. Stop saying such stupid things and live as you normally would. If you want to do something and think it’s right, you push through no matter what anyone says. Do what you f*ck.”
Of course, you bear the responsibility.
I said so. The main character, perhaps moved by my words, shed tears and nodded her head broadly and said thank you.
…… Is it because the child is still young? There is a lot of sensitivity and a lot of tears.
I didn’t mean to bully you, but I’m biting my tongue at the embarrassment of bullying a child. Suddenly the air started to get heavy.
The air became heavy as if a terrible poison gas had spread. A ripple arose in the barrier surrounding the park.
A creepy chill begins to subside inside the park, where nothing ominous was felt except for a strange silence.
A feeling as if the flowers are withering and the air is rotting. Shadows fall and the surroundings slowly begin to darken.
“- The barrier has changed…… ? This quality…… No! If this happens, it will rather become necromancy to summon evil spirits!”
The protagonist pulls out his weapon in amazement as if he noticed something. The delivery man with purple hair hurriedly looked around as if he was taken aback by the sudden change of atmosphere.
It suddenly rose from the shadow of the purple-haired courier. Dozens and hundreds of hands.
Hands of various sizes grabbed the delivery girl with purple hair in an instant. The courier began to be dragged into the shadows, white and unable to scream.
“- Yoon Seo!”
Calling out the delivery man’s name, the main character reached out in a hurry and grabbed the delivery man’s hand with truly miraculous timing. Just like that, the two were sucked into the shadows and disappeared.
In an instant, I was the only one left in the park.
“Ah- the plague.”
It’s a start.
As soon as the kids disappeared, I became more aware of the presence around me.
I immediately purchased dynamite from the store and prepared to take out the dynamite in my bank account at any time.
The sound of footsteps and breathing coming from inside the silent barrier. That number is pretty good too.
It was surprising how they hid such a large number of heads.
While licking his lips with his tongue, he took out a spear from his bankbook instead of a broken sword and held it. I looked at the place where I felt the greatest popularity, everything?
“What is Sifal?”
“Keuk kuk. This is your third meeting? Bantling.”
The biggest hit.
So when I looked at the place where I felt the strongest tooth, there was no one else but the apron pervert.
The guy who must have been weaker than me must have taken some strange medicine after hiding himself in the flower field a while ago.
The amount of presence and spiritual power that I felt let me know that he had a level of strength similar to mine.
I don’t know what happened, but it was a strange situation that suddenly became so strong.
I swallowed dry saliva in a sense of danger that hit my whole body.
Before thinking about it, I took out dynamite from my bank account and threw it at him to avoid myself.
The dynamite I bought at the store caught fire and exploded as soon as I threw it, as if I didn’t even need to set it on fire.
Quang! The world is incomparable to the noise seen in the movies, and fragments fly in all directions with an explosion that seems to be tearing apart.
For normal people, it wouldn’t be strange if they died. Why?
I had no idea that apron pervert just died. As if to prove that it was the correct answer, a voice came from beyond the dust.
“Keukkeuk. Dynamite and weapons appearing out of thin air. Is that your skiII? Amazing If it wasn’t for me as I am now, I’d definitely be dead. No, if you weren’t strong enough to withstand this kind of shock, you’d be right to be dead! After all, he’s the kind of guy he’d order to kiII.”
My skin tingled and I felt a dull shock as if I had been hit all over, but my body reflexively gripped the spear and glared at me.
The pervert in the apron who came out of the rising dust cloud had abrasions and bruises all over her body, as if she wasn’t unscathed at all.
Even that wound was recovering quickly enough to be noticed.
Is that a real human pup? I stared at the apron pervert in awe. The apron pervert giggled and said with an unpleasant laugh.
“My skiII is a three-person kiII. If you face the opponent you’re trying to kiII three times and survive, you’ll be strengthened to the point where you can kiII the opponent.”
“If I die before facing the opponent I want to kiII 3 times, it will be the end and I will not be able to win against an opponent who is completely different from me!”
As if to show off his fully recovered body, his yellow teeth were once again exposed.
I knew why he suddenly became so strong from those words. At the same time, I wondered why he was telling me that- Ah. Taboo.
I remembered the characteristics of spiritual power that Nokla had told me about.
A way to strengthen oneself by forcing what could be one’s weakness or crisis. Taboo.
Right after that, I felt that the spiritual power of the perverted apron soared from the same level as mine to a level higher than mine.
For some reason, Siipal kept slamming his face. Was that the reason?
I tried to run away by clicking my tongue. I gave up when I saw that people wearing black scarves over black robes surrounded me as if they wouldn’t allow me to escape.
I made a mistake. I shouldn’t have exploded the dynamite right away, I should have exploded it at those who surrounded me and then ran away.
No, since he came here to kiII me in the first place, there is a possibility that he modified the barrier to prevent him from escaping.
It’s a bit different from the imagination that dog poop said that if her grandmother didn’t come to the academy, she would starve me to death, but it was a moment that came true.
So- that’s it. A very dangerous situation right now. Therefore. I must say this.
“Aren’t your nipples a little too far down?”
“This guy! Pointing out a person’s complex with such a nonchalant face!!!”
Your muscles have been bulked up, but if it’s too low, it’ll stand out. The apron is so small that I can’t even cover it.
I raised my middle finger and laughed at the pervert in the apron who was going to kiII me in a fit of rage.
