"It is likely that a monster nest will appear."
"No." Wait. "What?"
"You know, right, you're not in a position to refuse anything here, Class Rep."
"Wait, wait." I should hope that what happened just now was misunderstood, not the ambiguous part just now, but the nonsensical sentence at the beginning.
However, lately, hoping too much scared me even more, because almost everything happened the other way round. "Monsters?" I asked.
Hudson nodded as if it was no big deal to consider. "What? Wait, you've never considered it? Did the novel tell you about all this, no, didn't the System tell you?"
What the hell was that rhetorical question? "Of course not," I said indignantly. This must all be a joke. However, even Hudson didn't crack a smile and there was no sign of laughter.
"Then we must hurry," Hudson said as he stood up. "Those horrible crea

It was a sharp darkness. There was nothing I could see, nothing I could feel.Is this the realm of death?Did I die? In such a ridiculous way?This must be a joke. This must be another part of Hudson's game. Wait, a game? If it's a game, then it's already started when she showed up.I shouldn't have believed a word that came out of that bitch's mouth. Not targeting me anymore? The dumbest joke of the century, and I let myself dance between her fingers.The freedom in everything made me complacent and started to take things for granted. "Okay, okay. I understand. I already know what you're up to. You're frustrated that you can't disable my abilities, but I don't even know how that work. Look, we can discuss this together, and find the best way out," was what I would probably say if I met Hudson again out there.But what if that 'if' never happened?&nbs

"I still don't understand. If these zombies are part of the extra stage, doesn't that mean they'll always be there no matter where I go?""Exactly."I looked at the cafeteria filled with those cursed creatures with a look. In almost every corner, along with the people queuing and eating, they wandered to and fro. With the same appearance as yesterday-ragged clothes, eyes with only the whites left.There are even more now. I think there are 20, or more. With an existence unnoticed other than by me, it was difficult to distinguish and confirm their number."So, what's your plan?" I asked, which I immediately regretted."I'm glad you asked. I have this Item that can decompose an entire material organism, living or dead, when it explodes. That would be an effective attack.""And we'd be mass murderers, didn't you consider that?"

There were probably five of them. Scattered in the corners of the house, swarming the terrace, gnawing on what they can bite and leaving invisible disgusting marks.Always when I want to relax.Is all this necessity not just a responsibility, but a fate that I cannot escape?Nevertheless, it's best, as I had planned earlier, not to bother too much.I mean, just look at how Eva defeated them without even touching. And the status of that attribute hasn't changed since yesterday either.I have nothing to be afraid of.While flashing that confident smile I've been wearing lately, I took a steady step forward. Deliberately making a lot of noise and attracting the attention of those pesky creatures.The zombies saw me, their gazes hungry. I'm not afraid, certainly.I took a stance, still with the same determination, and pre

There was a dragging movement from the right side. Another zombie lunged here again. It took two moves for the power to activate. I was better prepared this time.My feet were pointed forwards. That's why when the zombie was about to lunge at me with a super lightning move, that speed backfired and led to its 'death'.Three down.Two more to go.However these two... are quite unique.They have almost the same features. If they were human, they would probably be female. Waist-length hair with bangs covering the forehead (yes, similar to ghosts in Asian horror films), long legs, and full breasts.It's certainly not what I imagined, is it?One of them came forward.One movement. But, the others follow.My focus was divided and I guess that's what they were after. By then I had lost count,

I looked at it again. The white ceiling. The odour was as strong as the sterile room that clung to the memory."Count!" I even still hear his voice, whipping loudly and unforgivingly.I shuddered, helpless, and cringed. "1 ... 2... 3 ..." I even repeated it when I was about to run.If it was still sunny out there, people might have started giving me strange looks and becoming the centre of attention.I guess that's the reason why I chose to visit at night, and also probably hoped that at any time she'd let her guard down.Being called a visitor also feels strange, and too familiar. On the other hand, the thought of being with her makes me sick to my stomach.This was a relationship that came about because of a strange compulsion. At that time I had no choice.I was just a child whose childhood was deprived, chained, and devastated by a se

I was beginning to question the basic rules of this game. That was if they actually had rules, or if this could still be called a game.Because if I'm not mistaken, I remember it as a survival programme that tested physical and mental endurance, not a ridiculous matchmaking magic bureau.[DATE? KISS? MAKE OUT?]<You must have met many wonderful people in your life, and had a hard time choosing the best one.>Objective:(*) Determine and find 3 people(*) Perform one of the commands to each of themThis is starting to sound disgusting.Do they want me to become a sex offender and commit a crime?It's an extra round, isn't it? I shouldn't have any compulsion to complete this..., but ....[Each completed action will count as the completion of one objective][Each completion of an objec

Black Friday is symbolic of tragedy. To be honest, I don't know the original origin of the term. People tell stories, news of something terrible spreads, and suddenly it's widespread. Normalised. Considered part of an irrational tradition that hasn't even been empirically tested. I guess that's how a myth is formed.I don't believe in myths.However, the myth is now a reality.From the window of my house, I anxiously looked out.On an old Harley Davidson motorbike whose maroon paint had mostly faded, sat the person I really didn't want to see when I was about to greet the morning.Silas. Or Darren. Or whatever his stupid name is, depending on which story you believe.Actually, Elena had warned me last night on that last thrilling phone ring. "As we are now bound in a professional partnership, we sincerely hope you can make yourself comfortable with our other partner, Mr McKane. Disputes are unproductive, and we're both trying to avoid that, surely?"Elena actually knew about the hist

It's a netode that makes sense. "So you initiated it, all this?""Uh, yes.""Are you some kind of representative or something?"Silas laughed. "You're kind of green on the street, deputy?" The young man patted my shoulder in a familiar manner, which I brushed off sarcastically.Oh well. Okay. That's an embarrassing statement. I don't know the organisational structure of a group of thugs (after all, who does?).Silas realised my discomfort, I think. "Sorry, yes. For that, and for what came before."Huh? "I don't understand.""That must have offended you. But, we work for the same people now, you should understand." Silas' hand landed on my shoulder again. "And also close to the same person."I winced.A grin rose on Silas's lips that resembled the curl of a pierced worm (if that was possible). "You heard about me from Susan."That statement made my eyes widen, though it wasn't actually that surprising.Earlier, together with Precise, I had already calculated that this would happen soon
