[Move to the area for the Second Scenario.]

After this, the Dokkaebi vanished as if in a hurry to go somewhere. The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

"...What are we supposed to do now?" Hyun-sung questioned since there were no clear instructions.

Everyone was at a loss for words since nothing was specified.

"We should just go down the track, for now, I am sure we'll see a place where everyone is gathered," Haru said as he pointed towards where he was going before. Logically speaking they could only walk that way since the bridge behind them was broken.

"Alright let's go," Hyun-sung nodded he had made up his mind and so did the others, Myung-oh grimaced but followed them. His position in the group was the lowest at the moment even lower than Nam-woon who actually tried to kill someone.

"He cut me and I didn't even feel it, and from what happened earlier, his illusion actually stimulate all of my senses," Seeing Haru and the group walk away the man stood up and touched his cheek as he felt something warm run down it.

That illusion felt too real for him, from the sensation of his limbs getting cut by the sword, to how cold his body felt as his blood gushed out. Every sensation from the breath that came out of his mouth to the smell of his own blood going into his nose, he remembered everything vividly. But the worst of it all was...

'Why did I feel so helpless? Just cutting off my limbs isn't enough to stop me, but why at that moment I thought of giving up? I wasn't able to gather any strength was it another illusion? or.....' The Man thought before stopping.

'He seems to be working with Dok-ja, should I kill him now? It will be possible with his naivety right now, but he could be useful,' The Man had many thoughts crossing his mind and he finally stopped them.

"I do not have time to waste on this," The man said before walking in the same direction as Haru's group.

[You have entered the area for the Second Scenario.]

Haru and the group passed through what seemed like a barrier.

[The land in the scenario area is deeply polluted.]

[Be careful about your breathing and move underground as quickly as possible.]

"Everyone, cover your mouth and nose we need to run quickly," Haru said quickly as the air got a little murky because of the poison.

The tunnel was just a little far away from them so everyone ran while Gil-young and the old lady were picked up by Hyun-sung and Haru once again.

[The Constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' is grinning insidiously.]

[Some Constellations are having fun looking at you run for your life.]

[Some constellations are nodding their heads at your plan.]

[The Constellation 'Secretive Plotter' is relieved to know that your head isn't full of flowers.]

[100 coins have been sponsored.]

[Some Constellations are disappointed that you ruined their fun.]

'...' Haru stared at the message in front of him with an impassive look.

"I agree with Ahjussi on that one, fighting someone out of your league is a total noob move, we need the grind mobs first, So if you all lag behind I'll move forward to the better hunting ground that includes you too Ahjussi," Nam-woon said while looking at everyone. He was half expecting to get hit but was surprised that he didn't.

Sang-ah and Hyun-sung looked at Haru who seemed to be thinking seriously.

'...I can't stay like this,' Hyun-sung thought, he knew that Haru was kind but that didn't mean that they could take advantage of that by being a burden.

Sang-ah had the same thought she was only alive because Haru decided to give her an insect egg when she couldn't find the insects. He also saved the old lady who was about to be killed and even forgave Nam-woon who tried to kill him.

If it was someone else she might be a little wary of the person but having seen Haru for a year and hearing about him she understood that he was just like that. But even then she didn't want to keep relying on him this way. Everything had its limit, after all, even Kindness and goodwill.

"I am ready to move," Sang-ah stood up to her feet.

"Are you sure Sang-ah-ssi?" Haru who was jolted out of his thoughts asked, he didn't mind if they rested for a bit more.

"Yes, I think I've rested enough," Sang-ah nodded.

"Me too, please just order me if there is something I can help with," Hyun-sung spoke while standing up.

"I'll help as well," Gil-young said while raising his hand.

"Sure we'll be relying on you," Haru said with a smile.

"Alright then, it will be me and Nam-woon in the front with Queresha, Sang-ah, Grandma, Myung-oh, and Gil-young in the middle while Hyun-sung-ssi will guard the rear, there is a possibility that a monster sneaks in from behind so I will be counting on you," Haru said and Hyun-sung nodded he was going to take it seriously.

"Finally some action, My blade has been thirsty all this time," Nam-woon cackled while taking out his swiss army knife, to his surprise Haru didn't take it from him but it was understandable since the latter could neutralize him easily.

In a world like this, the weak will have to follow the strong and Haru was the strongest Nam-woon has come across till now. Even that man from before couldn't stand a chance.

'The others didn't notice the cut on that man's face but I did, it is clear that Ahjussi could've killed that man but chose not to do so,' Nam-woon thought, he was irritated that Haru didn't kill off the man straight away before he causes any future problem but he didn't say anything, he was weaker after all and he himself was alive because Haru let him.

'The moment you are weaker than me I will end you,' Nam-woon thought while looking at Haru's back who was walking in the front as others followed behind.
