Absolute Person in Every Corner

[Episode 02] Survivors (1)

Since he had two remaining skill points, he could have invested in maintaining his dignity and storage.

Nevertheless, the reason for sticking to the store was simple.

‘Because shop skills are much more useful.’

Electricity, water, and gas were already available, so there was no reason to invest in skills to maintain dignity.

Wouldn’t it have the same effect as electricity bill discounts and water bill discounts?

‘Well. Then I saw that the area had expanded. Do I need to raise the level to supply electricity to the next door?’

There was no reason to invest skill points in the warehouse.

To be honest, if I raised the level, it would be all about increasing the warehouse space, but I have never run out of space while using the warehouse.

‘I don’t need to level up right now, but I don’t know later.’

What was needed right now was definitely a shop skill.

‘You have to put it up quickly in the beginning. If it’s not in a good state, it’s meaningless.’

Toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, etc.

When the necessities needed for life were intact, as many things as possible had to be registered in the store.

‘Because after the end of the world, there will be no factories producing new products.’

It was clear that the survivors, let alone production, would consume it at a terrifying rate.

I haven’t checked yet, but all the convenience stores and marts outside must have been robbed, and I’m sure you can count on your hands where there are still things.

Because it’s already been ten days since the world was destroyed.

‘I have to secure as many items as possible and register them in the store.’

The plan was to register the items necessary for survival first, and then, when I could afford it, I would register things like cola and snacks.

‘Things that will disappear quickly if human civilization collapses.’

Among them, I have to register all the things that gave me happiness.

Everything tasty, useful and necessary.

as quickly as possible.

After showering, I went out and registered the shampoo, cleansing foam, body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, razor blade and lotion that I had never used before.

Subsequently, rolls of toilet paper and wet tissues were registered, and 9 spaces were consumed in an instant.

It is filled with items that consume quickly and have new products that have never been used.

‘What do I fill the other one with?’

I registered everything I needed.

When I was looking around the house trying to figure out what to register, the monitor suddenly caught my eye.

“…”

Before the end of the world, I thought it would be nice to have another monitor.

It’s because I wanted to watch New Tube or watch movies while playing games.

However, a monitor costing more than 100,000 won was a luxury for unemployed people who do not work, and they endured it by watching videos on their cell phones.

‘Wouldn’t it be possible to fill one with useless things? The purpose is to fill all the cells anyway.’

Moreover, I had money that is now over 10 million won.

Maybe 1% of that could be wasted.

I put my hand on the gear nose monitor and slowly opened my mouth.

“… uhh. Calm down.”

There were plenty of things more important than monitors.

Towels, blankets, clothes, bowls, pots, vitamins, and nutritional supplements.

In this world where the Internet is also cut off, that monitor’s priority is pushed back for a long time.

In the end, what I chose was a box tape with only about a third left.

‘With this, I can make a cleaver like a spear. It will be quite useful.’

It was the only thing I had used, but it was something I would use a lot in the future.

“Register the tape.”

[Do you want to register the item?]

“yes.”

Gee-

When all the increased product registration windows were filled.

“bingo.”

Everywhere Absolute Shop Lv. 2 [+]

– Items registered in the store can be purchased at regular prices.

[Possessed Skill Points: 2]

A plus button appeared next to the shop skill level.

I raised the level of my shop skills without hesitation.

[Everywhere Absolute Shop skill is Lv. It became 3.]

[The number of items that can be registered has increased to 40.]

[Item recovery function has been added.]

As I looked closely at the last of the system notification windows that popped up in succession, I couldn’t help but be dazed for a moment thinking about its meaning.

“her? Are you giving this for this level?”

Ability to restore registered items.

It must mean that the used items registered in the store are made into new products.

From the time things like half-leftover ketchup or tangerine peels were registered, I thought it would come out someday.

But I didn’t expect it to appear only at level 3.

‘If this is the case, it’s worth taking the shop to level 3 even if it’s forced.’

It was like catching a mouse while walking backwards.

“Shop open.”

The shop window had plenty of slots and was twice as big as before.

Item restore buttons were only present next to three of the twenty items.

[A shop of absolutes in every corner]

Halfway Ottogi Tomato Ketchup, 500g (3,015 KRW) Repair

Tangerine peel (270 won) To restore

Tape left over (2,700 won) Repair

ᚠAmount held: KRW 11,240,720

Item registration

I wanted to get rid of the tangerine peel item first, but I turned my attention to ‘a little tape left’.

“Some remaining tape, restoring.”

[An amount of 150,000 won is required to restore ‘a little bit of tape’.]

[Would you like to recover?]

It was a waste of money, 150,000 won, but I decided that it was worth investing in because it would be used continuously in the future.

It would be much more efficient to buy a complete product than to pay that much money for a few leftover tapes and buy several.

“Recover.”

[Repairs the ‘little bit of tape’.]

[‘A little bit of tape left’ changes to ‘Yellow box tape 80m, 10 pieces’.]

The results were satisfactory.

Yellow box tape 80m, 10 pieces (3,500 won)

The price per piece has also been cut in half, and the quantity has tripled, so a total of six times the profit.

In addition, the remaining two items were also perfectly restored.

Ottogi Tomato Ketchup, 500g, 2ea (5,580 KRW)

Jeju Tangerines, 3kg (16,110 KRW)

“OK. End.”

With this, all products registered in the shop window have been turned into normal products.

A total of 40 items can now be registered in the store.

I wanted to level up after quickly filling the remaining 20 slots, but I haven’t decided what to register yet.

It was necessary to carefully fill each space as precious as it was.

‘In order to hunt monsters, weapons are essential.’

The only thing that was easily available at home was a kitchen knife, but it had been lost in the battle with Kelican.

‘Let’s register as the one next door.’

Now it was time to face the newly accepted citizens.

‘Before that, let’s take a peek.’

It can be said that if you are a Jiji, you will never fight, and it can be said that exploring the other party before negotiations is the basic of the basics.

“The Eye of the Absolute.”

The moment I spit out the skill name.

Whoops!

I saw myself lying on the bed.

It’s as if the game has switched from a first-person perspective to a third-person perspective.

‘great. done.’

Slowly expanding sensations quickly spread throughout my realm.

‘see.’

A young couple, Choi Hyung-joon and Park Hye-won, were talking with serious expressions in the living room where the lights were off.

“Honey, what shall we do now?”

“What can I do? I have to go out and get some water. I’ll get you, so wait here.”

“No! It’s too dangerous!”

“I know. But there is no way.”

“…Is there any place where there is still water?”

“To go to a convenience store nearby. It’s a pretty big place, so there must be something left.”

“…”

Then children came out from inside the room and urged them on.

“mom···. I’m thirsty…”

“Seo Yeon-ah…”

Hearing the urging of his thirsty youngster, Choi Hyung-joon said with a determined face.

“Do you believe me? I’ll get you somehow, so I’m waiting for you.”

“…”

Park Hye-won just lowered her head with a miserable expression.

Tears streamed down her cheeks.

‘… release the eyes of the absolute.’

After canceling the skill, I stared blankly at the ceiling on the bed for a moment.

‘The situation is much more serious.’

The situation next door was worse than I expected.

It seemed that food and drinking water had already run out.

In a way, it was natural.

Because it’s already been more than a week since I became singular.

If I had stayed at home all this time, I would have used up all my resources.

Since there were four people, it must have been consumed faster.

“Shop open. Buy Samdasoo and Jeju tangerines.”

Gee-

After moving them to the warehouse, I opened the skill window.

And he raised his dignity maintenance skill.

[Do you really want to raise the skill of maintaining the dignity of an absolute person in every corner?]

“yes.”

The last remaining points were invested in the Dignity Maintenance skill to supply electricity and water to the next door.

You can ask for quite a bit in return for it.

[The Dignity Maintenance Skill of the Absolute Absolute in every corner of the house is Lv. It has become 2.]

[The vassal registration is open.]

“yes?”

However, as the maintenance of dignity skill increased, the newly created function was a completely different ability from what I expected.

‘vassal? What is this again?’

***

Hyungjun Choi last checked his condition at the front door before going out.

A backpack to hold water and food, mountaineering clothes made of functional materials, and a golf club that I usually wear.

driver.

The ball travels the farthest among golf clubs. That’s how powerful it is, and with this, I decided that I could subdue those little monsters in one shot.

“honey···.”

Looking at his wife and children who came to meet him with a worried face, he tried to smile as if nothing was wrong.

“Dad, I’m coming! I’m taking good care of the house!”

Choi Na-yeon then asked in a trembling voice.

“Are you really going out, Dad?”

“then. Dad will bring you some water and something to eat, so in the meantime, listen carefully to Mom…”

“Ha, but!”

Choi Na-yeon interrupted him and said.

“There are those monsters out there!”

that day.

Hyungjun Choi’s family was outside.

The whole family was playing together with their children at the playground built in the apartment complex.

Then, monsters suddenly appeared, and soon after, a massacre took place in the playground.

The children had witnessed with their own eyes the goblins slaughtering people.

“Ahhh!”

Choi Seo-yeon burst into tears, perhaps recalling a nightmare from that time.

“Seo Yeon-ah, stop. not nice.”

Despite Park Hye-won’s encouragement, Choi Seo-yeon’s crying did not stop.

worst mood.

‘Maybe it will be the last.’

I was intuition.

that one’s own strength alone is not enough.

He could still vividly see the people who were being killed by the goblins.

Furthermore, it was a situation where there might not be any supplies left in the nearby convenience store.

‘Probably not.’

To be honest, I wasn’t confident even now to go outside. It was just a struggle to survive somehow.

The two daughters were already showing signs of mild dehydration.

Now that I had drunk all the water in the toilet tank, I had to go outside.

However, I couldn’t stop thinking that this might be the last time I saw my lovely wife and two daughters.

It was then.

♬♪♬♩~

Hyungjun Choi froze at the sudden ringing sound.

‘A ringtone?’

It gave me goosebumps.

I’m sorry, but the electricity was cut off a long time ago.

A bell in such a situation.

Looking ahead, he saw the face of his wife, who was terrified with the same thoughts as him.

Choi Na-yeon and Choi Seo-yeon did not seem to understand the meaning of this situation, but seeing that they had stopped crying, it seemed that they had read that something was not going well.

Perhaps it is because Choi Hyung-jun’s expression is so frightened.

Hyungjun Choi slowly turned his head.

The bell was still ringing, and there seemed to be a buzz outside.

That moment.

Knock Knock

“Huh!”

“Kyaaah!”

Choi Hyung-joon, startled by the knocking sound, stepped back, and the three women behind him also let out screams.

“excuse me. Please open the door.”

Hyungjun Choi had a hunch.

‘Monster, monster, monster… monster!’

The monster was clear.

They may not know how to imitate human speech, but they must have found out where their family was and came to visit them.

“excuse me?”

Knock tok-

Every time the monster knocked on the door, Hyungjun Choi and his family trembled in fear.

All they could do was quietly wait for the monster to leave.

how long did you wait

It was quiet outside.

‘Have you gone?’

For a while, there was even a glimmer of hope.

Click!

“Huh!”

The door opened like a lie and the monster broke into the house.

“No!”

“Kyaaa honey!”

“Dad!”

“Huh!”

Hyungjun Choi desperately embraced his family behind him.

At the last moment, it was an act that came out of the heart that I want my loved ones to live longer than I did for a second.

Choi Hyung-jun was prepared to die, but what came from behind was not a monster attack.

“excuse me.”

Hearing the polite voice, Hyungjun Choi slowly turned around.

A young man was standing there.

They looked the exact opposite of themselves, who were scruffy because they hadn’t been able to wash or eat properly for several days.

Maybe she just took a shower, her slightly wet hair and the subtle scent of shampoo and body wash.

An unreal scent that did not match the current situation was adding to his mysteriousness.

In addition, his subtle presence and charisma made him look like a giant.

Hyungjun Choi barely opened his mouth.

“Who, who…?”

he opened his mouth

“My name is Kim Jae-hyun, who lives next door. Can we talk for a minute?”

At that time, when he couldn’t answer anything with a dumbfounded face, the young man lifted up the object he had left next to him and said.

“It’s water and tangerines. Would you like to talk after you have a few?”

The items the young man brought were things the Choi Hyung-joon family desperately wanted.

water and food!

At this point, it didn’t really matter who he was.

Hyungjun Choi hurriedly nodded and replied.

“Come in!”
