"Don't tell me you never once thought it was strange? Why they are stronger than you, why the outcast group that went out for scouting never returns each time, where did the Mainstream Group get all those coins from.... Did you never once think it was strange?"
Then the people began to stir.
"Th, that's right, how did Cheon Inho-ssi get so many coins······."
"Haha, doesn't everyone know? That is, selling various things, and also—"
"Don't make me laugh. Do you think you could get that level of stats from that kind of stuff?"
Cheon Inho closed his mouth. I looked from right to left, scanning the faces of the crowd one by one as I spoke.
"A few days ago when I came to Geumho Station, the total number of people here was 88."
"······."
"But what's the total number now? Even by my estimate, it doesn't even seem like 50 people?"
"Th, that's because the morning scouting shift went out and were killed by monsters..."
"Monsters? You still believe that? It was the same before, right? Why is it always the outcast group that gets killed by monsters? Huh? Think about it logically? No matter how unlucky you are, how is it that only the outcast group dies every single time?"
[The Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter' nods at your reasoning.]
I gazed coldly at the Mainstream Group, and feeling my gaze, the Mainstream Group flinched in surprise and pointed their weapons at the people.
"....I'll say this just once..... I honestly don't care what happens to you, whether you live or die.... You know why? Because you killed innocent people and then refuse to take responsibility for it..... So fight and prove it. Prove that you must live, that you want to live, that you must survive even by trampling and killing someone.... Prove that.... with your own hands!"
As my words ended. As if they had been waiting, the Mainstream Group people rushed toward me.
"Y, yeah, you son of a b*tch!!"
"You bastards!"
The people also began to move, wanting to resist the Mainstream Group along with me.
"Kill them!"
"You scum! What do you take us for...!!"
Regardless of Mainstream Group or outcast group. All the people inside Geumho Station began to fight in a tangled mess.
"M, Mommy!"
"Dayoung-ah, come here! Listen to this! Do as Mommy says!"
In that fight, there was a child and a mother.
"You damn bastards!"
"Kill! Kill those bastards!!"
There were also teenagers and middle-aged people.
"Kyaaaak!! Die! Just die!!"
"Kraaaak...!!"
In that fight, the outcast group people fought really hard. But gradually, the outcast group people were being pushed back by the Mainstream Group people.
The numbers of the outcast group and Mainstream Group were similar, but the combat power of the Mainstream Group bastards, who had raised their stats by taking coins through human hunting, was far superior to that of the outcast group people. Therefore, the fight between the outcast group and the Mainstream Group was an unfair fight where they weren't even opponents from the start.
That is, if I hadn't been there.
"Jade Hounds!"
Forming a hand seal, the White and Black Jade Hounds leaped out from within my shadow and immediately began tearing at the legs and arms of the Mainstream Group.
"Water Blade."
Swoosh!
As a sharp blade of water passed, the arms and legs of the Mainstream Group men before me were sliced off as smoothly as cutting tofu and flew through the air.
"Kuaaaak~!!"
"Sh, shiit!! My haaand...!"
The Mainstream Group bastards, instantly rendered combat ineffective, looked up at me with pitiful expressions.
"S, save me...! I, I won't do bad things ever again...!!"
"Y, yeah! Please, just spare my life...!"
At that moment.
Thud!
Someone beat me to it, driving a sword straight into the mouth of a fallen Mainstream Group man.
"I said I would kill them."
[All evolution conditions for the Incarnation, 'Jung Heewon's' attribute 'The Crouching One' have been met.]
[The Incarnation, 'Jung Heewon's' attribute blooms.]
A dazzlingly beautiful radiance blossomed from her body, and I looked at Jung Heewon and nodded.
'The time has finally come.....'
[The Incarnation, 'Jung Heewon's' attribute blooms into 'Judge of Destroying Evil (Hero)'.]
"Yuseong-ssi, from now on, you step back for a moment."
Jung Heewon looked back at me with eyes shimmering with blue light and an expression full of confidence.
"These bastards are my share."
Finishing her words, Jung Heewon slowly exhaled and closed both eyes. And as she flashed her eyes open, a single scale began to appear behind her back.
[Incarnation, 'Jung Heewon' activates exclusive skill 'Time of Judgment'.]
[Constellations of the Absolute Good alignment agree to the use of this skill.]
['Time of Judgment' has been activated.]
Jung Heewon's sword, imbued with a blood-red aura over her entire body, drew a sinister trajectory. A swordsmanship light yet precise, weaving through the gaps between the Cheolduba. Blood splattered everywhere.
"Kraaaak!"
A scene of complete slaughter. Of course, Jung Heewon wasn't the only one fighting. Kim Dokja, Yoo Sangah, Lee Hyunsung, and even Lee Gilyoung were each holding their positions. But they weren't as aggressive as Jung Heewon.
As if born to kill, Jung Heewon killed and killed again.
If I severed an arm, Jung Heewon pierced their heart. If I cut a leg, Jung Heewon slit their throat.
Jung Heewon took care of all the cleanup I left behind.
Without a moment's hesitation, as if she had longed for that moment for a long time, she kept killing, and the surroundings were soon filled with blood.
Now the only Cheolduba left was Cheon Inho alone. And even he was in a state where his body was pierced in various places from the citizens' attacks.
"How is it? The feeling of receiving... judgment for your evil deeds?"
At my words, Cheon Inho glared at me and spoke.
"Hoo, hoo… You, you bastard.........…"
Swoosh!
Cheon Inho's neck, severed by the Water Blade, flew through the air and then fell to the ground.
[All Constellations in the channel feel intense delight.]
With that as the end, everyone stopped their actions.
The fight was over. However, no one could truly feel it.
Sounds of something bursting began to be heard from various places.
In the cruel world, Yoo Sangah cried, Lee Gilyoung closed his eyes, Lee Hyunsung bit his lip until it bled, and Kim Dokja closed his eyes and turned his head away from the blood-soaked sight of Geumho Station.
Finally, Jung Heewon, who had completely exhausted her stamina, was slumped in a pool of blood.
[The survival fee is being settled.]
Those who gained coins survived, and those who didn't gain coins died.
And no one, could save each other.
Jung Heewon was blankly staring at the unseen sky, and I approached her.
"Get up...."
Even the noisy Constellations had no reply this time. It seems they have at least a minimum of tact.
"Stand up, Jung Heewon..... You can't stop... in a place like this."
I reached out my hand to Jung Heewon. She looked at me, shook her head, wet her eyes, and bit her lower lip. In short, she was making a tearful face.
Was she like that because she killed people? Or, was it because she hated this world that had turned cruel, and it was just so heartbreaking?
I don't understand anything.
