『Basic Swordsmanship』 『Basic Defense』

Points held +754]

As time passed, the mutant zombies were getting closer much faster than expected.

On the other hand, the points I collected were only 754 points.

There were still 246 points left to buy beginner swordsmanship, and it seemed like the mutated zombies would arrive here in the next day or two at the earliest.

If you want to collect 1000 points before that, you can do it somehow, but since you have to overexert yourself, you may not be able to maintain the best condition when fighting mutant zombies.

For example, if you worked hard until late at night to somehow collect 1,000 points, you could end up lying down with body aches, or feel tired even after waking up in the morning, or something as minor as a big problem could arise.〈 Br〉

Above all, as soon as you purchase the beginner swordsmanship skill, you cannot immediately fight a mutant zombie that is like a boss.

It is a stark reality that there is no resurrection system when you die like in a game, so you should take some time to become familiar with beginner swordsmanship skills. Fighting right away after buying it was something a crazy person would do.

So for now.

"Sangtae Chang. I think it would be a good idea to buy a sword with 700 points. What do you think?"

After purchasing a sword with 700 points, you have no choice but to be fully prepared to fight against mutant zombies.

Sangtae Chang thought seriously for a moment, then seemed to agree with what I said and went straight into the weapon shop to find a 700-point sword.

[Would you like to purchase?

Yes / No]

The status window stopped moving as if he was thinking of something else.

I waited patiently, thinking there must be some reason, and soon, I pressed the [Yes] Button on the status window as if I had made up my mind.

Then, as if waiting, the air split in front of me, and a sword that was much longer than the kitchen knife I had ever used, and even longer than the sashimi knife that had the longest blade, was slowly falling out.

"Wow…"

Holding the sword in my hand, I inadvertently let out an exclamation.

Although 700 points is a lot, it still feels cheap for a stay, but when I actually purchased it, I couldn't help but be impressed.

It seemed like a famous sword worth every 700 points.

Should I just put on a show? I carefully took out the sword from the scabbard.

Sreung. It boasted a majestic appearance behind the sharp blade that cried out.

As I felt the sharpness of the sword as if it could cut through anything, a desire arose to quickly slaughter the zombies with this sword.

It's been a long time since I approached the mutant zombie that was already approaching and swung at it.

While trying to suppress this impulsive feeling, I swung my sword in search of ordinary zombies hiding everywhere.

The zombie's body was cut in half to the point where it barely felt like a cut.

The flesh was cut smoothly, and even the bones inside were cut in vain, showing wonders.

In addition, the sharper the blade, the faster it will sharpen, but just killing a few zombies did not leave even a scratch on the blade, and it still has a terrifying sharpness.

Everything from cutting ability to durability seemed perfect, as if it was expensive.

Her heart pounded, like an innocent child who finally got a toy she had wanted for a long time, and she decided to use it a little more and went off to look for zombies again.

After killing a few more zombies wandering around, I returned home.

Mr. Gye-sang had just arrived at the same time, and as the number of people increased in the hallway on the 4th floor, unlike before, the silence completely disappeared and only a noisy atmosphere surrounded the area.

"Are you here… ?"

Mr. Gye-sang, who was the first to spot me, opened his mouth with a tired expression on his face, but then his eyes widened when he saw the sword in my hand.

"Is that… A sword? A real sword?"

"Yes. It's Jingeom."

"Oh. By any chance, can I just look at it once?"

Mr. Gye-sang came up to me with excitement that was inappropriate for his age and asked if a man was a man, whether he was old or young.

"I don't mind seeing."

If Kim Ki had been like this, he would have refused without a moment of hesitation, but since he was a trustworthy Mr. Gye-sang, he just returned the favor.

The man carefully took the sword and pulled out the blade.

As the clear and cheerful sound rang out, her eyes sparkled like an innocent child.

"I don't know much about swords, but even when I look at it like this, I can tell right away that it's a famous sword… I feel like I can feel the craftsman's hand. The original owner knows that, so It seems like he took good care of it like it was new… Mr. Jaewon. I'm sorry, but where did you find it? Can I ask? No, was there another sword where I found this sword?!"

He asked me rapidly, as if he wanted a sword like this too, but I just shook my head gently.

"Unfortunately, there was only one."

"I see… "

After hearing the answer, Mr. Gye-sang looked downcast and expressed his regret.

"Okay… I can't help it. If only there was one. Well… I'm back now, so get some rest."

"Yes. You too, please rest well."

"Yes. It was hard."

After watching him enter the house, I also carefully knocked on the front door of the house where Seo-ah and Seung-i would be.

Then, as if they had been waiting, unusually loud footsteps could be heard coming from inside.

Soon, the door burst open.

"Are you here?!"

Of course I thought it was Seo-ah, but it wasn't her, it was Seung-i.

Seungi was greeting me with a very flushed face. She looked like a puppy wagging her tail non-stop, saying that the owner she had been waiting for so long had finally returned. I carelessly stroked her hair.

"But what is that?"

Seungi also showed curiosity about the sword in my hand.

"I picked it up when I came."

Since only Seo Ah knows the secret of her status, she cannot just reveal the truth.

Seung still doesn't suffer well, but I haven't thought of revealing an important secret like a fool.

"Hey… "

Seungi could not take his eyes off the sword.

"Are you here?"

Afterwards, Seo-ah approached the front door and smiled brightly.

Every time I saw her, I was instantly mesmerized by her beauty and looked at her and then smiled.

"That sword…"

She wondered about the existence of a sword she had never seen before, and then looked through her status window and saw a grin on her face, guessing that she had bought it at a store.

She must have been very worried because she always went out with only kitchen knives, and when she saw the long-bladed sword, she looked relieved.

"Hurry up and wash up. The food is ready."

"Yes, okay. Just a moment."

I calmly held out my sword.

Seung-i looked at me and moved aside, and Seo-ah carefully took the sword I held out.

"Where should I put it?"

"Hmm…"

Since no one else comes into my house other than Seung, I could leave it in the living room, but just in case.

"Let's leave it in the master bedroom."

I decided to place it in the master bedroom that Seo-ah and I share.

"Okay. I'll leave it there. Go wash it."

As Seo-ah left her her seat her her, Seung-i also followed her, and while I was looking at the backs of her two people her, I went straight to the bathroom and washed her body her her her her.

After conserving as much water as possible and washing away the black blood, flesh, and sweat from the zombies that had splattered on my body, I went to the kitchen and finished dinner with the three of us.

And after taking a short break, I invited everyone into the only remaining house.

"So. What's going on? Jaewon."

As everyone, including Seo-ah and Seung-i, gathered at the house, they expressed their doubts about Mr. Gye-sang suddenly summoning them.

"I'm on my way after just checking the location of the mutant zombie."

I flinch.

Seung-i flinched at the mention of the mutant zombie.

In addition, Mr. Gye-sang's wife was trembling and showing fear as she was held in the uncle's arms her, as if she was traumatized by the mutant zombie.

There is no need to say anything about Kim Ki-yeok.

"Okay… So where was it?"

I asked with a very nervous face.

"Looking at the direction of movement, it is clear that we will reach this place."

"Heh, heh…"

In the worst situation with no hope, Mr. Gye-sang smiled with an expression that said it was over, and Mr. Ji-hyuk closed his eyes and repeated taking in and exhaling his breath deeply.

Only Seo Ah doesn't realize the severity of the situation and has a question mark over her head.

It was a natural reaction.

Not only did I do everything I could to prevent Seo-ah from leaving the house, but she also never went outside after the world turned into a zombie apocalypse, so the only time she saw the zombies outside was inside the house, so she couldn't 't 't help but feel fear right away. There was.

Still, the atmosphere seemed serious, so I was swept up in it and worried about what would happen in the future.

"Is it a distance that you need to run away right now?"

"I'm not sure, but I think it will arrive in two days at the earliest."

"…"

With the news that it was two days later, the mood became even lower.

I thought I had finally found a comfortable, cozy, and safe place, but the atmosphere couldn't be better as it seemed like this place would be taken over by zombies again.

"I guess I'll have to run away tomorrow…"

"I will do that."

Uncle Ji-hyuk, who heard Uncle Gye-sang's muttering, gently nodded.

These are people who naturally concluded that they should run away.

But I didn't really want to run away.

It may be difficult and someone may die, but the prevailing thought was that it was worth the fight even if it meant making such sacrifices.

That's why I accepted them.

So I.
