Ken looked around the area he was teleported in. And… it didn't feel any different from the other times he had been to Seoul.
Just like every other place. There were destroyed things, such as stores, cars, etc. Though, most of the buildings were still intact. It was a bit rare to see buildings being destroyed.
[The fifth main scenario will start in ten days.]
[A sub scenario has started as a filler.]
[Sub scenario: Survival activities.]
[Difficulty: C+.]
[Description: Survive in the ruined city for ten days. You must:

[Time: 10 days.]
[Reward: None.]
[Penalty for failure: Death.]
[Special note: This is a scenario where the coin event will be applied. Monsters that you kill during this scenario have a chance of dropping coins.]
When Ken saw this, he was a bit surprised. Since he actually didn't remember this scenario. Which is why another thought resurfaced.
'Right… I am extremely bad at remembering memories...'
It was not that he was just bad at remembering memories, it has also been a long time since he first read the early chapters of ORV. Which is why he can only remember major plot points.
Other than that, everything is kind of vague. In many things, he can't remember why this or that happens.
While walking in a circle, a thought came. Which is why he simply headed to the most nearby convenience store.
He had already run out of all of the food he had stockpiled in his backpack. Which is why it has been a bit hard for him the entire day. He would always eat all the things like snacks from time to time whenever he was bored.
But because of that, the things he brought would burn out really fast. Which is also why he would need to go around collecting them from stores and such. Though, even that is a bit hard, because of other survivors, who would have already cleared the stores most of the time.
Ken came out with a bag of chips. That was the only thing he could find in the entire store. Not that he really put in much effort on finding.
As he was munching on them while leaning his back on a wall. He saw multiple werewolves running. It was surprising for him, since he didn't think they existed.
And just like expected, werewolves are still humanoid wolves, as they easily picked up Ken's scent and some of them rushed towards him. What was even more surprising was that there were even ordinary humans with the werewolves.
But Ken didn't care much, as he took out his sword. He quickly sliced off the heads of some of them who were running towards him. Even he sometimes feels surprised whenever he does something like this.
'... Guess the Weapon proficiency leveling up did indeed help in that.'
[You have obtained 50 coins for killing a tier 6 humanoid demon, Werewolf.]
Ken had killed three of them, yet only one had given him coins. Meaning the thing called chance really is a thing. But the thing that pained him is that, even after killing a tier six, they only gave fifty coins.
'Is it based on difficulty?' He thought. As there is a thing called difficulty, meaning, strength of a monster.
All tiers are not the same. If it says tier six humanoid demon, then it would mean a humanoid demon, who is tier six. And that is why even with the same tier, just from being of different species can make up a huge difference in strength.
Even then, he was content with another thing. The werewolves were also incarnations, meaning they also can gather coins, and had their fair share of coins too.
When Ken looked at the group that was rushing to a place, they had stopped seeing him kill some of them. As the one who was bigger than the others, and had some patterns and different colors compared to others, it was no surprise as to who he was. This was the leader.
But what surprised Ken even more, was that he could recognize this guy. It was the same monster who was actually a human originally, but somehow became a werewolf for strength. And also… 'Dokja's bully.'
This guy used to bully Dokja during his high school years, and Dokja would later confront this character. Which was why Ken was a bit confused.
He looked at the monster again. He was confused if he should kill this guy or not.
As he suddenly cut off the arm of the werewolf in front of him, it screamed in pain. But somehow, what made Ken angry was that this guy could regenerate just like him.
Ken slowly put his sword back on the sheath and cracked his fingers. "Let's see how good your regeneration is."
—***—
Just after a minute or two, Ken had already broken the monster's bones multiple times, but he would still regenerate anyway. The only thing being that, his regeneration is getting weaker and weaker.
All of the werewolves, along with the humans with them, and the leader, were begging for mercy. In reality, the leader is at least as strong as a king, the only unfortunate thing being, Ken is stronger than most of the other kings.
Ken thought something for a while and waved his hand, as if dismissing them. Even after seeing it, they looked confused, which is why Ken had to beat them up again and make them leave the hard way.
After that, they dashed away as fast as possible. But the only reason Ken had let them be is because he wanted to know Dokja's location, and if he were to follow them, he might just get what he wants.
As they ran, Ken also quietly followed them from behind. It must be because of the blood of the werewolves on him, that they didn't notice that he was following them.
And for Ken, this chase was extremely boring. Since he quite literally followed them for about one fourth of an hour, where they would go to different places where there were a lot of people locked up in cages and forced to fight each other.
Apparently those guys called it the coin farms. It was pretty easy to guess how they worked. The people would fight each other and satisfy the thirst of violence for the constellations that want it, then they would reward these guys with coins. Simple.
After following them for a while, they finally reached another coin farm, but this time, the people that were in charge of it were mostly missing and some of them, who survived, came running and said some things to them.
Which was also obvious. They must have said something like a man and a woman destroyed the whole farm or something like that. Ken only guessed as much because he could remember that beside Kim Dokja, Han Sooyoung was also here.
'Today I might get the answer for the question I asked the other day.'
He had asked Sooyoung a question a few days ago, and she only said that she would think about it. Though, he didn't quite literally talk to her, but her avatar, which she was controlling. So, it's basically the same thing.
And just as he expected, the werewolves killed the guy who relayed the message about the farm getting destroyed.
Ken started to look around for something. "If this is the coin farm that's been destroyed… then they should be around here…"
And even before he could find them, the leader of the werewolves actually found Dokja and Sooyoung.
"... There's gonna be a show. I need something to eat." He murmurs to himself before rushing towards a store to find something as quickly as possible.
