Luck is on Narukha's side.The truck he was driving was the only car that arrived at the parking lot behind the Dimensional Portal building. With the car engine and turn signals on the front not yet turned off, Narukha checked his surroundings.Unfortunately the dark atmosphere limited Narukha's line of sight. It can only see straight ahead in the direction of the turn signals on the front of the car. Also, three meters on the right and left are affected by the reflection of the light rays.Narukha should have seen the silhouettes of two standing guard soldiers. But now there's no one. The situation is completely empty.Meanwhile in this parking lot, after repeated confirmation, Narukha did not see any other trucks. Or, had another truck arrived earlier and already left?"No one yet?" Cloe made a sound while checking who was around.Narukha shook his head. "Only we came," he replied. "There are two guard soldiers. Have you seen the others?""No," said Cloe. "I suddenly thought what if
Year 2053, London.[Breaking exclusive news, the elite system warrior squad has completely eradicated the monsters in Central London. Award pinned]Narukha smirked sarcastically as he read the news written on the shabby and almost torn newspaper. The writing of the last sentence is not detectlegible because the newsprint is not intact, only torn."Damn. The credit don't deserve to fall into their arms. They did what they should do," Narukha muttered while crumpling this torn piece of paper.Narukha's heart growled like the reaction that always appears whenever he reads news about elite system warrior troops.Narukha was really fed up because lately he always found news about System Warriors. Award after award they got, while at Narukha's residence, people died one by one due to lack of food distribution.Narukha sighed as he threw away the origin of the crumpled up piece of paper."They are useless. Servants of capitalist people," Narukha cursed again.To Narukha, they weren't that di
Three Months Later.It's been three months since the death of Narukha's parents. After the rescue from the System Warriors who were too late, he was taken to a refuge area.The name of the refuge is Camp Underground. Where Narukha lives now.Distant, seedy, and...cramped together."Hey you kid. Wake up! Wake up!"Narukha was already awake. More precisely, he never really fell asleep. But he pretended to groan as if he had just woken up, turned around and saw a man with a little white beard and a shabby face.Without making a sound, Narukha was motioned to sit down quickly. The man's gaze was wary around Narukha.Narukha was confused, again pretending to blink."What is it?" asked Narukha after sitting on the edge of the divan without legs."You know what? I have a secret," whispered the man when Narukha was already sitting on the edge of the cot bed. "There will be soup for breakfast today, and maybe for the next three days."News about food supplies again.It wouldn't come as a surpr
Narukha couldn't just sit back and wait for a miracle.When midnight came, fifteen people in this wooden hut were asleep, Narukha was still awake.Now Narukha was sleeping face down on the cot. In front of his eyes, there were three scribbled sheets of paper.All the papers are Narukha's notes for three months. He observed the movements of the System Warrior members. Narukha has noted that once a month, there is a schedule for exchanging System Warrior members from this refugee area to another refugee area.Also, Narukha once secretly stole conversations when System Warrior members were transferred to the elite area. They departed with the elites who were also transferred to another elite area's refuge."Last month, they had exchanged System Warrior members at midnight of the seventeenth.The previous month, they had exchanged on the sixteenth. Which means… this month, they will be making an exchange at midnight on the eighteenth."Then Narukha fell silent. He checked the number of li
DUG."Argh...."Narukha silently groaned after the box she was hiding in seemed to have been pushed down. His body fell forward following the displacement of the box.Luckily the box was not opened. Because if that's the case, chances are Narukha's body will stick out of the box and they'll know where she is."Ah, finally!" A man's voice groaned with relief.Narukha looked up with a worried expression. Since he was in the food distribution truck, he doesn't know who pushed this box.Don't even know where he is now. Narukha isn't in a dangerous execution ground, is she?"That's it. Our task of putting this box is done. Later when there is a food distribution schedule, we will use a new box.""All these boxes are thrown away?""Of course. Why keep using a box that has touched the territory of the poor?"Again. Such condescending words rang in Narukha's ears.Narukha didn't know that almost everyone here loved to belittle the poor like her.If it weren't for Narukha having an important g
Narukha's head was spinning.As his eyes slowly opened, he began to catch a faint light. It was so dazzling that it made him blink repeatedly to adjust his vision to the room's light.Narukha groaned. The more his eyes opened, the more dazzling light in this room felt stabbing his eyes. But he still forced himself to open his eyes, watching the white ceiling of the room.'Argh... what is this?' muttered Narukha.Slowly his eyes scanned the room. Narukha was confused why almost everything was white. Only the lines on the four sides of the ceiling are gray.Narukha tried to get up. But he realized that his hands were stretched out locked handcuffs. He repeatedly jerked his hands away, but he realized again that his legs were locked in handcuffs as well.Narukha's consciousness suddenly returned to its fullest. When he lifted his face, he saw his body sitting half on his back. In the center of its abdomen, there was something like a coiled handcuff.Wait. Where is he now?Narukha remembe
Narukha didn't know how to answer. His heart was torn between his doubts and his goal of coming to the Dimensional Portal.Remember how many people had to die due to lack of food distribution, Narukha was confused. Can Narukha trust Carl? Is accepting the offer to become a System Warrior troop is the right decision?Or, Narukha just refuse the offer?"How?" he asked."I'm sure it won't be that easy for someone to get an offer or an invitation to become a System Warrior," Narukha replied, looking at Carl doubtfully.Carl chuckled, his eyes narrowing. "It's not easy. Isn't this offer a great opportunity for you?""I find it impossible for you to make that offer just because I want to save the lives of the people in the evacuation.""Because we let them die? Oh, come on, Narukha. You have to understand that not all areas can be reached by our troops. Food distribution is limited because we also have to provide food distribution to other evacuation areas."Narukha raised her eyebrows as a
[WELCOME TO PORTAL DIMENSI, OUR NEXT FUTURE SOLDIER! WE'RE SO GLAD TO GREETING YOU HERE...]One more, the echo of a sound system sounded in Narukha's ears. His two feet stepped slowly into the gathering area with white LED lights at several points of space. It's so wide and wide.Narukha couldn't stop looking at the humans gathered in this area. Everything runs from the West, in contrast to him who runs from the South.Not only that. Above each human's head, there is a horizontal polka dot line and a cross symbol.Information under the cross symbol: No Signal For System.From the left side of the wall, every six people came out together from inside the pill tube elevator. They used the pill tube elevator access to this floor.Narukha counted that the pill tube elevator only went up and down twice. This means that twelve participants are special people who can use the pill tube elevator access."What floor is this?" asked Narukha to someone beside her.The man who looked like a bodygua
