|KIM DOKJA|

[YOU HAVE ENTERED CHUNGMURO.]

We entered Chungmuro station as it had quite the creepy feeling to it

"This place is eerie..." Sangah said as I was looking at the Dokkaebi channels

-There are a lot of Dokkaebi channels since the scenario is becoming more large-scale. It must be difficult for Bihyung...

[THE THIRD MAIN SCENARIO IS 

CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS.]

Someone noticed us as they looked drunk, he waved at us before walking towards our direction.

"Hey, little samurai. You've brought newbies." The guy chuckled with a big smile on his face as we followed Jihye who just responded with "Yeah."

-Samurai...? He would regret calling her that if he knew who Jihye's supporting constellation is.

"Have you been drinking again?" Jihye asked with a irritated look as the man was smiling widely

"Hahaha, what else is there to do when the world is in ruins?" The man answered cheerfully as his buddy joined in on the conversation "Did your friends come from Dongguk university? I'm impressed. You must have earned a few coins along the way." The one holding the beer bottle said as he was really disturbing

"WHat's your name, little miss? I know of a cheap ro-" He began to say before-

"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE." Leon growled as Leon had almost chopped the man's neck off with how close that sword was as Jihye seemed frightened by Leon's overflowing intent to kill on the spot

"Fucking leave." Leon ordered as they ran away, Leon turned to Jihye who was nervous as her hand was on her sword.

"Yoo Joonghyuk must have invited to his party, I'm his companion from the first scenario. Leon Takuira." Leon introduced himself as Jihye's expression seemed to get tense as she was ready to draw her sword

"I see he..." Leon stopped talking as he seemed saddened by something

"Master told me about you. He isn't here right now since he's busy." Jihye said as she turned away and started leaving 

"Keep an eye on them, that man with blue eyes is Leon Takuira. I'm going to see master." Jihye said to a black haired person wearing a pink hoodie as he turned to us with a expression that looked like he was seeing a idol of some kind

"You're Mr. Joonghyuk's companion?" He asked with a very joyful expression on his face as Leon nodded

-This could go well for us...

|LEON TAKUIRA|

"And that's how Mr. Joonghyuk became the leader of our group!" The boy in the hoodie finished explaining as I nodded. That man was still a psychopath...this boy would've died if he weren't next to Jihye Lee at the time.

[THE CONSTELLATION, SECRETIVE PLOTTER IS GLAD YOU'RE WELL.]

[DEMONIC JUDGE OF FIRE IS DELIGHTED YOUR ALRIGHT.]

[QUEEN OF THE DARKEST SPRING IS RELIEVED TO SEE THAT YOU'RE IN A GOOD CONDITION.]

[THE DEMON KING OF SALVATION IS GLAD HE CAN CONTACT YOU AGAIN.]

[THE PRISONER OF THE GOLDEN HEADBAND SMILES AS HE'S HAPPY THAT YOU'RE SAFE.]

Huh? Were constellations always this kind? I decided to ignore it as I listened in back to the conversation

"How do you supply yourselves with food here?" Hyeonseong asked  as the boy looked a bit flustered

"Well, it's a little embarrassing to say...but a number of people here are reliant on Jihye to provide for us. Jihye hunts monsters and then asks Mr. Joonghyuk Yoo to cook them." The boy said as Heyonseong Lee started writing down what the boy said in a notebook while Gilyoung watched. Hyeonseong...you really don't need to take notes on something like that...

"What about drinking water?" Hyeonseong asked as the boy in the hoodie answered "We make trades with the landlord using coalition using food and coins."

"The landlord coalition?" Hyeonseong repeated as the boy nodded and led us upstairs, now this was finally getting interesting.

[THE COLLECTOR OF STORIES DEMANDS YOU TO DOMINATE AND CONQUER THIS AREA BY FORCE. IF YOU DO, HE'LL GRANT YOU A SKILL.]

Now this was a really good offer...

"Hey." Someone said as a group of people were waiting for us

"The newbies from earlier! Did you come to look for a room?" One of the people asked

"Oh, excuse us. We just came to use the bathroom upstairs." The boy in the hoodie spoke for us as the man sighed

"What a pity. Be careful up there." The man warned as I already had a feeling on who the landlord was if a different incarnation not from the story took his place as we went on ahead to the next floor.

"They keep mentioning something called a room. What are they referring to? And they-" Sangah said in a curious manner as she looked all around as the boy in the hoodie interrupted her "They're landlords. And the rooms are...simply put, it's that." The boy said as he pointed at a green squared tile that had the words green zone on it with (0/1). It must be the amount of how many people can be on a safe zone...considering what this scenario is...Yoo Joonghyuk was already straying off his path in his third round. I need to find out what he's doing...

"Oh? Why are people gathered over there?" Hyeonseong asked curiously as we saw a bunch of people up ahead

"The bathroom is just past them." The boy in the hoodie informed as Gilyoung started dashing into the crowd as I chased after him

[THE INCARNATION, GILYOUNG LEE, HAS TRESPASSED ONTO PRIVATE PROPERTY.]

The men who were guarding the entrance walked up to Gilyoung as I shoved everyone aside

"Who's this brat?" One of the men asked as he was wearing a blue buttoned shirt and black jeans as he carried a bat

"He's with me." I said as I pulled Gilyoung back as the men glared at me

"Hey, don't you know that kid just trespassed? Let me teach you a valuable lesson." The man said as turrets started to appear on the zone which I had just pulled Gilyoung off of as they aimed at him.

[THE STIGMA, MILITARIZED ZONE LV.3 OF THE CHARACTER PILDU GONG HAS BEEN ACTIVATED.]

I guess I have no choice...

[YOU ARE ACTIVATING YOUR PERSONAL SKILLS.]

[PILDU GONG IS DEMANDING A SUM PAYMENT OF 500 COINS FOR TRESPASSING.]

[ALL TURRENTS IN THE AREA WILL INITIATE FIRE IF HIS DEMAND IS NOT MET.]

"Hey, hand over the coins." The man demanded as I prepared for a battle
