Absolute Person in Every Corner

[Episode 05] Expansion (4)

“Ugh! omg! Ugh!”

Baek Seung-min was running through the underground parking lot.

“Kike!”

“Kyaaagh!”

“Kick-! Snuggle Geek!”

A group of dozens of goblins were chasing him behind him.

‘Damn it!’

The sight of the goblin holding a kitchen knife or scissors, no matter where it came from, was fear itself.

It was because even touching the blade, which was clumped with blood and dust, seemed dangerous.

‘Just a little bit more!’

Notice was not far off.

“Kkigiik!”

I could feel that the goblins were right behind me.

Sensing the danger instinctively, Baek Seung-min jumped with all his might.

Taat-!

The entrance on the first basement level to the apartment.

Right after he threw himself through it.

“Hey! Stab!”

“Huh!”

“Whoa, you brought a lot.”

Three men crouching on one side of the wall appeared at the same time.

All of them were carrying spear-like weapons.

A crude spear made by connecting a cleaver to a long stick.

However, there was no problem hunting goblins with that alone.

Fu-wook!

“Pretty dear!”

“Oops!”

The goblins rushed at the humans right in front of them, even though their own people were dying next to them.

Because that was their way.

When one dies, another pounces on the enemy, scratching and biting.

It was the goblins who pushed with numbers and ate enemies much stronger than themselves.

but.

Tuong! Kagagak!

“Kek?”

“Keeck?!”

The goblins’ charge was blocked by a transparent wall and thwarted.

The attack, which was carried out at the cost of the lives of his people, was completely blocked by an unknown wall.

Fu-wook! hooked! hooked!

In the meantime, the three men inside the transparent wall eagerly stabbed the goblins.

The goblins that had flocked all at once were caught between the transparent walls and their kindreds who pushed them at random, and were unable to escape.

hooked! hooked! hooked!

“Khehehe!”

“Keeek!”

As if they were already used to this, they mechanically cut off the goblins.

By the time half of the goblins died in vain, the goblins who understood the situation began to withdraw.

“Yaya! there! there! That guy is running away!”

“These bastards are jumping!”

“Poke anywhere for once!”

As the goblins started to run away, the men boldly escaped through the transparent walls.

The goblins, who had already lost their fighting spirit, were busy running away, and were stabbed to death by crude spears without even making a proper counterattack.

“Hey! I’ll show you something fun.”

While we were clearing up the runaway goblins, a man said.

“Huh!”

He threw the crude spear with all his might.

The spear flew several meters and landed on the back of one of the goblins.

“Pretty much!”

“nice! did you see Did you see it?”

“Nice shot, boss.”

The men had no fear of goblins.

Rather, it seemed overly relaxed.

It was because he had already repeated this type of hunting several times.

Five days after the goblin quest appeared, the four people here, including Baek Seung-min, had already cleared the quest to catch 10 goblins this way.

The man who threw the spear and hit the goblin asked the others.

“Hey, how many did everyone catch?”

“Sleep. Well. I am twenty-two.”

“I won. I am twenty-four.”

What they were talking about was the goblin hunting numbers written on the quest window.

After clearing the first 10 hunting quests, similar quests will be granted immediately.

It was a quest to catch 100 goblins, but the second quest didn’t have a penalty, so it wasn’t burdensome.

It was only used for counting how many animals they had hunted.

The man with the spear muttered to himself, calculated the calculations, and then said:

“So now, with just the three of us, we’ve caught over a hundred?”

“really? already?”

“Wow. At first, I said when I would catch a hundred.”

At that time, Baek Seung-min, who was breathing in the back, protested.

“Haa fuck Seungyeop hyung! There must be as many as fifteen of them!”

Baek Seung-min fired at him, and Baek Seung-yeop responded with a nervous tone.

“What else are you complaining about? ok?”

“Does that look like 15 to your fucking eyes?”

“I thought it was similar.”

“ha···. fuck.”

Then, Baek Seung-yeop smiled kindly and patted his younger brother on the back.

The intensity was never light.

“Yumma. I hope it worked out. What are you complaining about? There will be a new house now.”

“I almost got lost because of you!”

“under. little brother.”

Baek Seung-yeop frowned and said.

“Who came up with this hunting method?”

“…”

“It’s me.”

Baek Seung-yeop continued talking as if he didn’t even want an answer in the first place.

“I set up the strategy, and the twins made the spear… so you’re the bait? Are you confident in running well?”

“that’s···.”

“As a result, no one was hurt and it ended well. But what are you so dissatisfied with? If you’re dissatisfied, take me off the team? Excluding you, there are over 100 of us alone now.”

“…”

As the atmosphere turned violent, Moon Ji-hoon, Moon Sang-hoon, and the twin brothers stopped Baek Seung-yeop.

“Seungyeop hyung. be patient brother Seungmin did well too.”

“yes. Seungmin played the role of bait well. You were really fucking fast?”

“admit. I thought it was Usain Bolt.”

Baek Seung-yeop, who relaxed his expression at Moon Ji-hoon and Moon Sang-hoon’s playful tone, said.

“Whoa. The kid makes me angry. Where are you cursing your brother?”

As soon as the atmosphere showed signs of lightening, Moon Ji-hoon immediately patted Baek Seung-min and pushed him.

“Seungmin-ah, hey. yes. Cursing at hyung was a bit over the line. Apologize right away.”

Baek Seung-min apologized with his head bowed.

“······sorry.”

Baek Seung-yeop took the spear without even looking at his younger brother.

“It’s done. Let’s go to the 21st floor. I need to get a new house.”

“I’ll give you the old house~ Give me the new house~.”

They boarded the elevator, convinced that they were the first team to catch 100 goblins.

However, the reality was a little different from their expectations.

“I’m sorry, but there is a team that has already been rewarded first.”

“…is there a team that caught 100 fish before us?”

“Yeah.”

Baek Seung-yeop said with a laugh.

“Ah, Dabin. Are you trying to make fun of us? It’s not fun. Don’t joke, give me the house quickly.”

“I am not kidding.”

Kim Da-bin continued with a smile on her face.

“He’s just coming over there. The team that caught 100 goblins before you.”

Baek Seung-yeop and his party turned their heads and saw the team Da-bin Kim said.

There, a muscular man, a man with a grave air, and a woman who seemed to like to chat were approaching.

Baek Seung-yeop was overwhelmed by the force they radiated and unconsciously took a step back.

Dabin Kim said to the muscular man, Minho Kim.

“How is it?”

“I saw the show. I gave up on the new house and instead supplied electricity and food to my house and Mr. Jiho’s family, and Uncle Jiho’s daughters were exempted from quests.”

“yes? Aren’t Mr. Jiho’s daughters underage? If you are a minor, aren’t you eligible for quest exemption?”

The answer came from Nam Ji-ho.

“They are both adults.”

“aha.”

Nam Ji-ho’s wife, Moon Hae-ri, who was next to him, smiled happily.

“Ho Ho. My kids are winning for a little while. Just like my mother.”

“That, right? hahahaha.”

“I look like me and can shoot an arrow well, but Lee should worry a little more about the kids.”

To be honest, I thought it looked more like Nam Ji-ho than Moon Hae-ri, but I didn’t bother to say it.

At that time, Kim Min-ho said as if he had just remembered.

“Oh, right. And I was promised to supply bows and arrows from Mr. Jiho.”

The compound bow Nam Ji-ho and Moon Hae-ri had was borrowed for a while until the goblin hunt was over.

When he heard that he had been paid for it, Kim Da-bin tilted his head and asked.

“Why the bow and arrow? Do you want to continue hunting goblins?”

“yes. Jaehyun directly asked me to wipe out some goblins nearby. Grumpy goblin puppies. No matter how many you catch, there is no end to it.”

Baek Seung-yeop, who had been quietly listening to the brother and sister’s conversation until then, intervened.

“for a moment. Isn’t this a privilege? you guys are related Get fire and bow separately! Isn’t this unfair!”

Seeing Baek Seung-yeop’s passionate protest, Kim Min-ho clapped his hands and opened his mouth to his sister.

“Oh right. sister. He also said something similar. They said it might seem unfair… So they told me to send them to the 30th floor, saying similar benefits would be given to the 2nd and 3rd place teams.”

“yes?”

Kim Da-bin put on a business smile and said to Baek Seung-yeop.

“Did you hear? Good for you. Go up to the 30th floor with your party members. He will be waiting for you.”

“I see.”

Baek Seung-yeop was full of dissatisfaction, but he did not dare to express it.

In any case, it was enough for him to get a house with electricity, water, and gas.

“let’s go.”

♩♬―

[The 21st floor.]

[The door opens.]

As soon as he boarded the elevator, Baek Seung-yeop poured out his dissatisfaction with his colleagues.

“under! Rumor has it that he’s younger than us. Isn’t it fucking funny to use honorifics while talking about him?”

“Iknow, right. oops. What could be Jesus?”

“Jesus must be a pseudo cult.”

“Right! That’s it!”

At the time when the twins were eagerly conversing with Baek Seung-yeop, Baek Seung-min casually threw a word.

“I don’t know if he deserves to say that when he is protected within his power right now.”

“…”

“Besides, aren’t you still on your way to impress that person?”

In an instant, the atmosphere in the elevator froze.

“Hey you···.”

The moment Baek Seung-yeop opened his mouth again.

♩♬―

[The 30th floor.]

[The door opens.]

Arrived on the 30th floor.

“See you later.”

The moment Baek Seung-yeop was about to ring the doorbell after getting off the elevator.

clap.

The front door opened.

And in front of the front door stood a man exuding an air of something unapproachable.

A presence that instantly takes your breath away.

“Nice to meet you.”

gulp

When I met him face-to-face, Baek Seung-yeop, who was talking a lot in the elevator, disappeared.

Standing in front of him, I naturally took on a polite attitude and lowered my posture.

“Bae, my name is Baek Seung-yeop.”

he said with a smile.

“I saw the performance of Baek Seung-yeop and his party. It was very impressive to see them stably continuing their hunt using the transparent barrier.”

Baek Seung-yeop was surprised inside.

‘That, how?’

Although the hunting method he had discovered was spreading among the citizens.

However, it was still a hunting method known only to those in the know.

I didn’t think that he would know that he was living well on the 30th floor.

At that moment of confusion, the man continued talking.

“We will supply electricity, water and gas to rooms 1301 and 1502 right now.”

It was the house of the Baek Seung-yeop brothers and the house of the twins, respectively.

I wasn’t getting a new house, but that was fine.

In fact, what they wanted was a house with electricity, running water and gas, not a new house.

Rather, it could be said that if they were supplied to the house where they originally lived, it would be an excellent result for them.

“Is that possible?”

“of course.”

“It’s possible to find other survivors and live with them…”

“Because you guys hunted 100 goblins instead. Enough.”

Baek Seung-yeop, who was genuinely happy and smiling, instantly hardened his expression.

It was because I noticed something strange.

‘How do you know exactly where we are?’

At that time, Jaehyun Kim said with a mischievous smile.

“Oh. I am not a pseudo-teacher. Not even Buddha or Jesus.”

“Yes?”

For a moment, Baek Seung-yeop got goosebumps.

It was because he remembered the conversation he and the twins had in the elevator going up here.

‘Stand, no way.’

He continued talking to Baek Seung-yeop, who had a pale expression.

“I have a request for you.”

“No, of course. Just leave it to me!”

Baek Seung-yeop was ready to listen to anything he asked.

“It’s nothing. I want you to continue hunting goblins like you are now. Although they are small, I want you to consider these as my sincerity.”

With those words, things began to appear out of thin air.

Starting with rice, food items such as ramen, onions, carrots, eggs, and milk, a set of bows and arrows, and three spears appeared.

It was a regular spear, not a crude one with a cleaver fixed on a stick like they made.

Baek Seung-yeop, who witnessed the strange phenomenon of objects appearing in the air, immediately bowed down to his waist and shouted loudly.

“Go, thank you! I will do my best!”

It was like a private soldier who had just been assigned to his unit.
