22 CHAPTER-21

Kim haebom, was an archaeology student, studying from the best university- a topper of his class, was currently on the verge of pissing himself.

"What is that?"

He wondered to himself.

He had known that the world that he knew about has changed, but he apparently had not taken the fact as seriously as he should have.

.

Haebom had one day opened his eyes, and he had suddenly gained a seemingly omniscient map. At first he had wondered if he was the chosen one, but after a few days of observing the map, he found out that the map was nothing of much importance, with that he went back to his life of a college student.

But suddenly the world collapsed. He had used the map to Escape somewhere Safe. He had felt that he could forever use this map to save himself and stay away from trouble.

According to the so called messengers, earth was given exactly 10 days of 'Tutorial Period' after which they needed to go through a series of quests, which would allow them to gain citizenship and make them worthy of even trying to save their planet.

According to the messengers, right now, they had no authority or right to save earth.

People started forming groups according to their constellations. For example, the Hindu constellations sponsored or disciples came together. Meanwhile, there were also constellations forming under the greek mythology, the dynasties such as the Mughals, Pandavas etc, who Seemed to be especially strong.

But right now, each one of them seem to have the same message prompting on their phones

..........................................

ERROR!ERROR!ERROR!ERROR!ERROR!

TUTORIAL 'END' DUE TO UNPREDICTABILITY ERROR

..........................................

"Immediately contact the headquarters!"

"T-this! They have verified it-"

"Ha- Who is it? The

The message sent chills in peoples heart while the panicking expression of the messengers was not helping.

According to the timeline, there were still two days for the tutorial to finish.

Suddenly the sky turned blood red. Looking up at the two red suns hanging in the sky Haebom felt his hands and legs tremble.

Piercing screams were heard all around them as some people suddenly bent forward letting their heads.

" Hehe unlucky humans seems like some of you were too much in a hurry to move towards your own destruction. Now face the result haha"

In the midst of such an ominous situation, sneering of the messengers did not help one bit. Haebom felt his heart Chill as he watched people around him, roaring and biting humans next to them.

"No way- that- isn't that"

"....Zombies?"

" Where is my child! No! Baby? Where are you?"

The humans who were currently standing next to them, had suddenly turned into zombie like creatures, who were biting and chewing on human body, like it was food, the expression of pure bliss on their face as blood Dripped from the side of their mouth caused everyone's heart to chill.

Suddenly a middle aged man with a potbelly, came forward and slashed the head of one zombie immediately dispelling the heart chilling mood.

" FUCK, what are you guys waiting for!? Hurry and run! Get help"

More people hesitated but eventually came forward after seeing the man fight by himself. But the zombies were growing at a such a fast pace that they were not able to stop all of them from coming after the people running away.

Haebom opened his map while running and looked for a safe spot.

" hurry up this way! I have a map!"

Haebom shouted taking the lead into leading everyone to a safe place.

..........................................................................

Jihan add always known that it won't be a normal Apple, but now he wondered if you might be presented a girl named 'Apple' just like in the popular shounen mangas.

"Doki, Doki"

'Will this be the start of his harem?!'

Jihan shook his head at the possibility.

Jihan vehemently denied the possibility of it.

Looking around at the mess that was ensuing around him. John wondered if he was really safe with only the stealth cloak.

"where did it all go wrong?"

Jihan wondered.

He had no interest in following the main quest, and that's why he had specifically boarded the Metro in Delhi, so that he could gain the tutelage of the constellation of sloth.

For a person like Jihan, who had no desires of becoming strong or even escaping the world or saving the world itself, It was a cheat like constellation.

Jihan had wanted and planned meticulously to gain the tutelage of this constellation, and then Escape somewhere far, but near the main quest area so that he could keep an eye on the situation.

For a person like Jihan who knew the future he could have easily gained all hidden plot quests and become strong from the very start.

But he avoided it all, just so he could avoid attention from the constellations and primordials, since it would do him no good.

But he was suddenly assigned a quest that basically meant death. He even had to get the attention of Poseidon, a major constellation of a great greek dynasty.

"tsk"

Now that he thought back of every thing that had been happening, Jihan felt irritated. A person like Jihan, and who liked to plan every step, he took felt distressed when everything was going against what he had planned.

Jihan opened the map feature in his mobile and then took time carefully observe it, he could see various corridors, but all of it converged in one single sphere in the middle.

According to common sense, this should have been something like a reception, but Jihan, who knew that this was a romance novel originally felt that he might get few answers by observing this place.

Since coming here, John had known that what he learned in the novel might have been flawed.

"Right now for such a important quest, you couldn't have half assed knowledge."

Jihan thought to himself.

He finally came across a wall. While Jihan was nearing towards the world, he wondered if the map was Lord, and that he had come to a dead end, but for some reason he instinctively felt that he needed to cross this wall.

Jihan carefully put his hands on the wall while wondering if he should buy tips from the messenger. But suddenly the the wall broke in two and opened up.

In front of him was what seemed outside world carefully stepping in John shivered at the sensation of the cold dew on the grass that you are stepping on to and looked around at the lush environment.

John could see lush green forest stretching across the Horizon. There was not a soul In sight. Just trees and a clear blue sky. Moving forward John heard the sound of the wall behind him closing.

The walls closed, leaving behind nothing but trees and clear sky.

for a moment, Jihan wondered if he had actually entered some different ongoing quest. Checking his phone for any prompts. Jihan made sure that he was still in the quest area.

"phew"

After confirming Jihan chewed on the fennel seeds, he kept with him to calm his mood.

He looked at the cleared out Path that was made to his right. Moving along on it, Jihan felt at peace with his surrounding environment.

It was not the lush green forest or the clean and healthy environment, but something within him that he had felt being suppressed when he had first transmigrated to earth seem to have been let free.

"I feel like I can breathe again."

Jihan thought to himself as he walked along the path.

Soon he came across a platform on which a man was standing with his back to him. Jihan seemed to feel that the back was very familiar.

Quietly walking towards the platform, Jihan made sure that the person in front of him was human. He took a moment to envy the man's tall stature, strong back. Once done, he carefully took off his stealth cloak.

"excuse m-"

But soon Jihan couldn't speak when he saw the man turn around.

"W-what are you doing here!?"

Jihan wondered out loud as he looked at the disgusting handsome person standing in front of him.

"Seo Jihan"

Finally confronting Yoon Jonghyun who was a small time cannon fodder just like him, currently holding the struggling lump of cloud called makkhi in his hand, Jihan was in a complicated mood.
