My Game Friends Were Foreigners in Mythology

27 – The Sleeping Man at R’lyeh (4)

“…What is it?”

I trembled slightly from the anxiety I felt as soon as I woke up, and muttered, filled with perplexity.

Everyone must have felt it at least once.

A day when you are late for school or work.

The warm sunlight you feel when you wake up, your warm body without any blood, and the feeling that even the song of a bird is squeezing your heart.

I only collected things that made me feel good, but I’m sure I’m not the only one who experienced the feeling of insecurity about being f*cked instinctively.

I still feel that way.

It wasn’t that I woke up late either.

[7:00 A.M.]

It’s not too late to take a leisurely wash, have breakfast, get dressed and set off.

It was a leisurely time to the extent that there would be no problem even finishing the hair setting if one was a little more greedy.

But why does someone deep inside say that it’s f*cked up?

[..Emergency Notice…]

“What is this?”

I carefully stretched out my arm to check my phone, which was vibrating loudly.

Then, strange rules were written.

What’s out there, it’s been occupied by whom?

“In one day?”

Is there any organization in the world that can conquer Korea in one day?

It is impossible even if we bring the United States, the world’s No. 1 Superpower.

Because we also have a ‘saint’, a healer who can revive the dead, an A-rank number that reaches the top ranks in the country, and a ‘guild leader’ who is said to be the strongest bomb dealer.

As long as there was a guild leader who could inflict fatal wounds with a mere touch and a saintess who infinitely resurrected such guild leaders, in order to conquer this country in one day, even a real Constellation had to be brought in.

But there are crazy bastards who take over the Republic of Korea so fast that they can’t guarantee the safety of the people?

‘A force equivalent to a constellation.’

Or, it means that a person with a true constellation level has appeared.

Turb, tumble.

I gave the Pokemon doll to Yehwa, who was hugging me tightly, and walked out to the living room as quickly as possible.

“Ah, did you wake up?”

In the living room, the carcasses of human-sized fish were piled up.

Why the f*ck does a fish have limbs?

“What is this?”

“…”

Sure.

Bewildered, I asked Nyarlathotep, but she said nothing and pointed to the TV.

[Currently, a creature resembling a fish in Korea…]

The contents were like that.

A bipedal creature resembling a fish has taken over South Korea, and the current heroes are struggling to stop them.

“Not only that.”

Wow!

-Keee

As the windows of our house were smashed, a bird that could eat a person in one bite poked its head out.

“Even the creatures of Dreamland have materialized into reality.”

Kwajak!

Of course, it exploded with one gesture from Nyarlathotep, who was annoyed.

“His name is Shantak. And the fact that it appeared…”

“Even that nemesis, the Night Gaunt…If a person speaks, stop!”

A monster that looked like it would appear in Dia X Row appeared behind the bird, but as expected, it exploded with a single gesture from Nyarlathotep.

“Originally, creatures from the dream world shouldn’t appear in reality, but now it’s an exception. Reality and dreams have to be mixed.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Cthulhu has risen. Meaning has lost meaning, time has lost its flow. Do you know how many days have passed?”

What are you talking about? I only slept 5 hours…

“It’s been a week. You were supposed to wake up at 7 o’clock, but time slowed down and it took me a week to wake up.”

“…”

What the f*ck, did I sleep for a week?

“Wait a minute…Then what about the example?”

“Yehwa sleeps at the same time, hugging you and absorbing her divine power, so there is no problem.”

So, does Yehwa mean that she slept for a week while eating and sleeping at the same time?

“By the way…What do you mean Cthulhu is resurrected?”

“…”

Cthulhu.

That name is not unfamiliar. Rather familiar.

Isn’t that the name of the guy who played the game with me until yesterday?

Of course, she was a godlike guy who lived in a dungeon-like place in the deep sea, but she was a deep sea princess who looked harmless from the beginning.

“The greatest old thing, Cthulhu. Its power is so strong that even foreign media like me can transcend it. It’s so strong that tens of thousands of years ago, it was sealed in the city of Rruhe, but it was awakened.”

“…”

Le Rue?

Are you referring to the place where I was imprisoned for five years?

So…Cthulhu was sealed there?

“I’m not telling you to stop Cthulhu. He has no intention of harming you anyway. There’s only one thing you have to do.”

Said Nyala Totep, spreading his slender fingers outstretched.

“It is to block the aftermath of the resurrection.”

Aftermath?

“With his resurrection, the Great Old One ‘Dagon’ began to be active again, and dreams and reality mixed and the creatures of Dreamland began to appear. And Dagon’s minion, the Deep One, took over the ground, and another myth. As the activities of the tribes began, countless tribes that had been hiding began to move.”

Slowly.

“For example… Like this one.”

Nyarlathotep said, pulling out a strange object from among the giant fish.

“A flying polyp. It looks like sh*t, but to normal humans, it’s nothing short of a disaster.”

“Is that a creature?”

No matter how you look at it, it looks more like an object than a living thing.

“You’ll change your mind when you see these guys in action. Anyway, if things go on like this, most lifeforms on Earth will die. While the aftermath of Cthulhu’s resurrection is still only affecting Korea, we need to put an end to it quickly. “

Took.

She said with a serious expression after roughly throwing away the corpse of what was called a flying polyp.

“If ‘premonition’ even cries, then it is over. The moment it cries, I will abandon the earth and take you with me.”

“Foreshadowing…?”

“Outer God, it means gross. You’ll know it when you see it yourself, so don’t worry about it.”

What the f*ck…So many gods?

Frowning from the throbbing pain that ran through my head, I put my head on my head.

“Neither I nor Ctuga can stop it. Because transcendentalists like us are limited by the system. But you are different.”

Tup.

Nyarlathotep proudly walked over and grabbed my shoulder.

“Because you are human. Humans are the only beings that are not restricted by the system. In other words, you can use the full power of the ‘Constellation’.”

“What are the limitations of the system…”

“I’ll explain when the situation is over. I know there are many words I don’t know. But the situation is just as urgent.”

Nyarlathotep cut off my bewildered words at once and hugged me tightly.

“Remember. You are a contractor for foreign media. You are not the kind of person to be beaten by those fish. Cthulhu won’t do anything to you because you are there anyway.”

“…”

It’s already the second hug.

If you interpret it based on the first hug, it means that you feel guilty about yourself.

“Why do you feel guilty?”

“…What?”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

So to sum up the current situation, it’s not that Cthulhu, who was playing games with me, broke the seal and ran out because he wanted to see me.

“Just like in the game.”

If my teammates poop, I have to clean it up.

“I’m coming.”

I sprinted through the front door with all my strength.

‘Iris.’

First, rescue Iris and start.

* * *

“Whoa…”

A-class hero Jang Dae-hwan sat on the corpse of a fish and lit a cigarette.

Among heroes, his tanking ability is evaluated as being among the top tier.

However, there were numerous scratches on his body.

‘What the f*ck are these little fish so strong…?’

The development was a week ago.

Tens of thousands of monsters ranging from A to B in terms of heroes attacked Korea all at once.

Then, they wiped out the villain organization that had settled in Korea at once.

It was good up to that point.

But their goal was not just the villains.

Because to them, whether it’s a villain or a hero, it’s just something that needs to be killed.

Because Korea has the highest number of A-class heroes in the world, it has endured this much. If it had been another country, it would have perished long ago.

Terrible.

“Damn it.”

He suffered tremor from fatigue and tossed out an empty pack of cigarettes in a fit of irritability.

Numerous sacrifices have already taken place.

The saintess, an S-class hero, is reviving as many as possible, but there were so many deaths of heroes that surpassed that.

Quaaang!!

“Fix the battle lines!!”

‘Still, I’m glad he’s here.’

S-class hero, Lee Seol-ah.

He was one of the most influential figures in Korea, currently serving as the guild leader of the Hero Guild.

No matter how much the fish guys reached A-class, they were useless in front of an S-class who could resurrect infinitely with the power of the saintess.

No, in the first place, she had never been resurrected in this battle.

Because it was so strong that the fish guys couldn’t even resist.

‘Should I go soon too?’

Jang Dae-hwan got up from his seat, grabbed his hammer and shield, and ran toward the front line.

At that time.

Turb, tumble.

A woman with a spear stepped out from among the fish.

Chin, chin, chin.

At the same time, all the fish that were rushing at the heroes all fell on her knees and saluted the woman.

“…Who are you?”

The guild leader asked in a slightly nervous voice.

Sir.

The woman who took her question lifted the corners of her mouth and said.

“Cthulhu Star Spawn.”

Chwaaa!!

‘Huh?’

The sight suddenly soars into the sky.

It feels like being a drone.

And before the blood supply to her brain was cut off, Jang Dae-hwan saw it clearly.

His head was blown off his own body and other A-classes.

And the image of the guild leader having his heart pierced and dying.

‘Crazy.’

Jang Dae-hwan, who was terrified, opened his eyes and thought just before he died.

‘Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy.’

That said, even if mankind freezes to death, they will never win.
