Innate Apocalyptic Constitution

Chapter 5 – If you can’t satisfy your sexual desire with humans.

Episode 5,

‘Do you think the government can resolve this situation?’

‘Of course.’

‘What’s your reasoning?’

‘The fat man that the boss kill… disposed of didn’t turn into a zombie for over 10 minutes. If the infection isn’t immediate, even if zombie fiction has become reality, humanity can certainly handle it.’

The man in the suit continued with a confident tone.

‘Even if all engines have stopped, it will last a month at most. Guns don’t use engines. The power that humanity has built up is by no means weak.’

‘Of course, restoring human civilization to the level of a few days ago is another matter,’ the suit-wearing man trailed off.

Youngmin raised the corner of his mouth.

‘That’s correct. But you’re wrong.’

The gunshots and holograms in the system window had something that made viewers recognize their reality to an uncanny degree.

It was as if it forcibly injected the information that the current situation was not a hidden camera prank or hallucination due to mental illness, but clear reality.

However, it had been just an hour since the system message announced the destruction of Earth.

These people still believed that the government could fulfill its role.

They thought they had pointed out Youngmin’s limitations and blind spots.

Youngmin suddenly felt an impulse.

He wanted to shatter these people’s confidence.

‘Inventory.’

A black void appeared in midair. Youngmin put all the food supplies he had stacked in the storage into his inventory.

‘Um, boss? What are you doing…?’

‘Ah. I acquired a skill called inventory.’

Youngmin no longer used honorifics.

‘Thanks for worrying about ‘my food.”

After putting everything from frozen foods to shelf-stable supplies into the inventory, people wore empty expressions.

‘I don’t intend to stop you from staying at the PC room, but I have no intention of feeding you on an empty stomach, so if you’re hungry, go to a nearby convenience store. Be careful of the infected on your own.’

People started murmuring, but they didn’t seem to have the courage to confront Youngmin.

The aftermath of witnessing a murder right before their eyes must have been significant, but that wasn’t all.

Youngmin had always been like that.

His large build and something that felt like an eerie pressure even when he was quiet.

By the way. Youngmin licked his lips.

His first murder. The impulse was satisfied, but that made his body even hotter.

As the heightened excitement continued, sexual desire naturally arose.

Among the people in the PC room, only two women had beauty that met his standards.

The more beautiful of the two was the panty-wearing kid, but Youngmin pointed to the woman wearing sweatpants and glasses instead.

‘You. If you sleep with me tonight, I’ll give you food and protect you for the time being. What do you say?’

The woman made an expression mixed with disgust and fear, then hid behind the others.

‘N-no. I’m fine.’

Her inner thoughts were visible in her eyes.

She was not only reluctant to sell her body but also scared of having sex with a murderer.

‘They think the government will restore the crisis situation in a few days, so there’s no desperation yet.’

Although Youngmin, who knew all the information about the infected through his tooltip, knew that the current situation could never improve.

He didn’t want to bother trying to persuade her verbally.

‘After starving for a few days, they’ll become desperate.’

The problem was that he wanted to satisfy his sexual desire right now.

While Youngmin was looking for other options, one person raised their hand high.

‘Me! I’ll do it, oppa!’

The high school student whom Youngmin referred to as ‘panty kid,’ Lee Sia, was inwardly making a sad face.

‘Ah, shit! It’s not like I’ve been saving myself just to do it with some strange man…’

But the current situation was too frightening to just sit still.

‘People said this situation would be resolved quickly, but… I can’t believe that.’

Unlike others, she had witnessed a person’s head disappearing and blood fountaining up right before her eyes.

She had felt the imminent danger of death with her entire body.

‘I would have been an adult in just a month! I could have gotten rid of my minor status and enjoyed myself a lot!’

She was too precious to die like this and wanted to live a bright life even in this ruined world.

Not only that. She had escaped immediate danger by coming to the PC room, but she was worried about her mother who might have faced the apocalypse at work.

‘I want to go find her… but if I go alone, I’ll die immediately.’

So to achieve both goals—securing safety and rescuing her mother—she needed to form a deep relationship with that incredibly powerful man.

Fortunately, she was confident in her appearance.

‘Someone like me is amazing. I wonder why he pointed to that unni first.’

‘You’re too handsome to call ahjussi… now that I look at you! I love sleeping with oppa! Totally welcome it!’

So Sia raised her hand with a confident attitude.

‘No.’

She was shocked to hear Youngmin’s firm rejection.

Meanwhile, Youngmin was genuinely not interested in the panty kid.

In the current situation, satisfying sexual desire with a minor had no grounds for extenuating circumstances or valid reasons.

For someone like him with an obsession for following rules, sex with the panty kid was worse than not doing it at all.

‘Why not?!’

‘I don’t eat things that aren’t fully ripe.’

‘Not fully ripe… what?’

Sia momentarily seemed deeply offended, looking around with an incredulous expression.

‘I have the biggest breasts here!’

‘Having a large piece of meat doesn’t mean it’s okay to eat something that isn’t fully ripe.’

After knocking out Sia like that, Youngmin turned around.

He took out two packs of ramen from his inventory, chewed them, and also fed Perd some dog food.

‘Perd. I’m going out for a while, so wait here. You can bite people if they do something strange.’

Woof woof!

As the large dog, almost as big as a ten-year-old child, barked fiercely, people were already frightened.

Seeing this, Youngmin stepped outside the building.

‘I have something to experiment with anyway. This works out well.’

If one cannot satisfy their sexual desires with humans, they can use other means.

***

Gwangmyeong City. A suburban city with a population of 300,000 and an area of 38.5 square kilometers.

Arithmetically, this means there should be one infected person per 100 meters.

The city was quiet. This was probably because Gwangmyeong is a satellite city, and more than half of its population commutes to Seoul for work.

However.

◆Monster Tooltip: LV1 Infected

[0.1% of survivors randomly selected regardless of location have mutated into infected.]

[Infected gain 20% increased physical abilities but lose their intelligence.]

[Infected will never die unless their brain is destroyed.]

[Z-virus mutates living organisms into infected 60 minutes after transmission.]

…

…

It had been well over an hour since the system message first appeared.

‘Grrrr…? GRRRRARRR!!’

An infected who spotted Youngmin charged at him with a throat-scraping roar.

◆Skill: Dex Weapon

[When holding a weapon, your movements become 2.2 times faster.]

The infected with a jackknife embedded between its eyebrows died instantly, but other infected who heard its final scream were now rushing toward Youngmin.

Watching the infected approaching with their jaws clicking eerily, Youngmin placed his foot on the wall of a building.

[Skill: Wall Walking]

With his feet attached to the wall about 3 meters above the ground, Youngmin observed the infected reaching up like hungry demons.

‘I’ll need a spear.’

He moved to a nearby construction site and picked up a pointed steel rod.

It was quite heavy, probably not suitable for combat.

‘But fine for simple tasks.’

Standing on the wall beyond the reach of the infected, he thrust the steel rod downward.

Due to its weight, his aim was off, and the tip of the rod pierced an infected’s shoulder.

The scent of blood from the spurting wound heightened his senses.

With a smirk, he granted peace to the infected who now had a useless arm.

Next, he swung the steel rod at a middle-aged male infected who was leaping toward him with claws extended.

As the massive 2-meter steel rod swung in a full arc, the center of the skull caved in with an M-shaped depression, and brain matter squeezed out through both ear canals like jelly.

Turning his gaze from the instantly killed infected, Youngmin mechanically moved the steel rod.

With each crushed skull and pierced eye socket, the infected dropped one after another.

It was after he had killed about five or six of them.

▶▶▶▶▶ 【BANG!】 ◀◀◀◀◀

[Level up! You have become an Awakened Lv3.]

[MP increases by 1, and the power of all your skills increases by 10%.]

From that point on, Youngmin counted the number of infected he hunted.

After killing 28, he reached Lv4, and after 68, he reached Lv5.

[Level up! You have become an Awakened Lv5.]

[MP increases by 1 and the power of all skills increases by 10%.]

[Skill slot increases by 1.]

‘Skill slot? So rewards are added at 5-level intervals.’

I think it’s fortunate since I wasn’t drawing skills because I had no slots.

As I continued hunting the infected, gunfire rang out once more.

▶▶▶▶▶ 【BANG!】 ◀◀◀◀◀

[Minor achievement, you are the first to achieve ‘Defeating 111 infected’.]

[First achievement reward: Low-grade Skill Drawing Ticket]

‘I’ve already killed 111?’

The initial outbreak in Gwangmyeong city had about 3,000 infected, but he had already reduced that number by more than 1/30.

It felt like 5 hours had passed, meaning he had hunted at a rate of one every 3 minutes.

Around that time, Youngmin stopped hunting and began to wander around the vicinity.

Even considering the MP added from leveling up, he only had two hours left on the wall-walking skill’s time limit.

He needed to start exploring the surroundings to find his targets.

‘S-save me!’

‘Don’t come! Don’t come! Ahhh, uh, aaaahhh!!’

Half a day had passed since the beginning of the apocalypse.

The entire city was desolate without human presence, but as he widened his search range, he discovered survivors fleeing.

‘It’s like a real-life Running Man.’

That was the thought that came to mind watching people playing tag with the infected.

Oh no, a young man who was running well just fell.

In Running Man, being caught by the chaser only means you’re out of the game, but that man seems like he’s about to be out of life.

Seeing his entrails being torn apart makes it certain.

Setting aside whether he intended to save him or not, the current Youngmin lacks the ability to rescue people being chased by more than ten infected.

‘So if you die before mutating into an infected, that’s the end.’

Therefore, Youngmin observed them from hiding to gather information before resuming his exploration.

After wandering around the area for about an hour, he finally found his target.

An infected with a figure that looked pleasant to touch, yet craving his flesh with bloodshot eyes.

‘That should be sufficient.’

He took out a rope from his inventory while licking his lips.
