My Second Life in Another World

As night descends, a man sits alone, lost in thoughts of grief on his birthday, mourning the loss of his parents. Seeking solace, he turns to alcohol, hoping to numb the pain. But when he wakes the next day, he finds himself in a strange new world, gifted with powers he unknowingly acquired in his intoxicated state. Rather than succumbing to despair, he chooses to face the unknown with resilience and determination. Exploring this unfamiliar realm, he uncovers hidden truths about himself, unlocking a wellspring of abilities he never knew existed. Driven by an unwavering desire to be reunited with his parents, he embarks on a quest to understand his newfound powers and the world that now surrounds him. Throughout his journey, he forms alliances, overcomes adversaries, and lends a helping hand to those in need. If there are also those who pose a threat to his loved ones. He confronts these challenges head-on, employing diverse strategies beyond mere violence. From Solo Leveling to The Beginning After The End to Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, follow this man's story as he tries to make sense of his new reality and find his way back to his loved ones. …. Before you begin reading the story, I'd like to share a few important points. The main character (MC) is a good-natured and cheerful person, so don't expect him to become excessively violent or aggressive from the start. However, he won't let others walk all over him and will deal with anyone he sees as a potential threat. How he handles these situations won't always involve violence, but you'll understand more about this as you progress into the second part of the story. The first part is meant to be uplifting and doesn't involve much danger because the MC is already powerful. Its purpose is mainly to introduce the MC's personality and the female characters who will develop romantic feelings for him. I did my best with my writing skills at the time, so I apologize if it's not as good as you'd like. Your feedback and thoughts are welcome, as I value your input. While this story can be enjoyed as a lighthearted harem fanfic commonly found in web novels, if you take the time to explore the sentences and scenarios, you'll find deeper meaning beneath the surface. Ultimately, it's up to you as the reader to interpret and decide whether it's a typical fanfic with an overpowered MC and a harem or something more meaningful when read with greater thought and investment. I've learned this through my writing experiences. Give it a try and let me know your thoughts after reading. I deeply appreciate all of my readers, and I am truly grateful to those who enjoy reading this story. Your support means a lot to me. At the same time, I want to apologize to those who didn't find it appealing or satisfying. Anyway thanks for taking the time to engage with my work, and I will try to improve and deliver content that you may like one day. That is all, Thank you for reading. Note: This story is a fan fiction and I do not own any of the characters.

Foolish

'The backlash is no problem, The Dokkaebis barely did anything to stop us or punish us for breaking the scenario,' Haru thought while looking at the panicked faces of everyone as they looked at the updated scenario.

'It is also good that I know there are constellations who want to see me dead, are watching me this instant, the main response for breaking the scenario came from the constellations rather than the Dokkaebis who enforce the Scenarios,' Haru knew that this bounty scenario can be fatal, a large enough prize can overwrite the fear and it isn't that the constellations worry about how many people die as long as the target is down.

This also showed how the dokkaebi's ability to influence the incarnations got lower as the scenario went on. Because if they mess with an incarnation that has a strong Constellation or if a strong constellation is interested in him, in such a case the Dokkaebi will have a tough time since the constellations seem much more direct with their anger or dislike as shown by their current actions.

'And this isn't even the biggest catch of the day,' Haru smiled as he saw a blue panel come in front of him.

[The emergency defense has begun!]

'Just in time,' Dok-ja sighed as he looked around at the chaotic atmosphere at the station.

Everyone was freaking out since they didn't know what was happening right now. Their only thought was 'Get into a green zone' but to their dismay, there weren't any green zones.

The cries of monsters were heard from outside the screen door. And an angry wave of monsters came running onto the platform on the third basement floor.

"A-Ahh,"

"Someone save me,"

"N-No,"

Many of the people that were on the third basement floor were terrified as they ran for their lives, The monsters were chasing them wanting to kill them.

But it wasn't only the monsters that were coming...

"You bastard," Pil-du roared as he came onto the second basement floor.

[Gong Pil-du has used the Stigma 'Militarized Zone Lv. 5']

ZOOM* ZOOM*

BANG* BANG* BANG* BANG* BANG* BANG* BANG*

"Eat this," Pil-du set up four turrets and started blasting them in Haru's direction without any fear or second thought.

'If I die, I fucking die,' Pil-du was really pissed off at the moment. But he jolted out of his frenzied state when he heard a voice.

"You're doing great Pil-du, keep doing it and save the people," Pil-du found himself standing in front of the stairs shooting the monsters, he looked back and saw Haru standing on top of the transit stairs that led up to the second basement floor from the third basement floor.

And the stairs were broken as well, so he couldn't even run up or more like he was never up there, and Haru made that illusion to make him set up his militarized zone.

"T-Thank you Pil-du-ssi,"

"Really thank you,"

The ones he ended up saving thanked him as they were taken up to the second basement floor.

"MOTHERFUCKER!!!!" Pil-du shouted as anger took over his head and he turned his turrets to aim at Haru shooting at him.

"This is too funny," Ji-hye laughed maniacally looking at Pil-du as all of his shots hit the monsters while Sang-ah was pulling these people up with the help of her mana thread.

There were two transit stairs that came up to the second floor and both of them were destroyed.

'This is going smoothly,' Dok-ja thought as the people who were pulled up didn't make a move on Haru and the reason for that was.

"Queresha you're finally here," Haru looked at Queresha who had just come down with all of the people on the first floor, that alone was more than enough to stop the other people from even thinking of attacking Haru, since this instant he also had numbers on his side.

"Yes, it took some time to get everyone to come down," Queresha looked around at the others who weren't part of their group still looking at them with hostility.

"So, I'll be going down and helping in reducing the numbers now," Haru jumped straight down from the second floor and got to kill the monsters without so much as another word.

"Wait, why is he doing that?" Ji-hye was shocked since she thought there was no need to do that.

And that was the reaction from most of the people in Haru's group, they had broken off the stairs so there was no need to go down and kill the monsters.

They just needed to fish out Pil-du and everything will be fine, right?

"That is necessary," Queresha said flatly bringing everyone's attention to herself, she continued before anyone could ask a question since she knew what they would be asking.

"Even after destroying the two staircases the chance of the monsters coming up is still high since the distance isn't long enough to stop them," Queresha pointed at the stairs that had a 30 feet-long gap, this might be enough to stop a human from crossing it but not the monsters, to stop them they'll need to break the staircase completely with the railings and all.

'Or we can just keep people down there as bait who'll attract the monsters,' Dok-ja thought as that was exactly what Pil-du and Haru were doing, ignoring that one of the two didn't want any part in this.

Dok-ja planned on doing something similar but much more extreme than what Haru had done. Well, since he wasn't in control there was no point mulling over it.

"So, Pil-du and Haru are distracting the monster so that they don't come towards us while we are going to destroy the stairs?" Hee-won asked and Queresha nodded.

"And there are still a few people down there that need some help," Queresha pointed at Haru who was saving the people who were about to be killed while Sang-ah pulled them up to the second floor as fast as she could.

"How much longer will it take?" Hee-won turned to Hyun-sung since he had done this before on the first floor.

"10 minutes, I am low on Mana right now," Hyun-sung said a bit dejectedly. Dok-ja also looked like he'll need time to recover.

He was the one who broke the stairs on the right side while Hyun-sung did it on the left. Dok-ja only needs five minutes to get enough mana but…

'The angry gazes are a bit too much,' Dok-ja didn't want to fully empty out his mana in the current situation.

"What is with the hostile behavior?" Queresha directly addressed the people who were using the green zones.

"Y-you have the audacity,"

"Why did you have to do this?"

"You nearly killed us,"

These people were of course not happy with the situation, they were going about normally. But Haru's group came and turned everything on its head.

"We had a reason for doing that,"

"Please calm down,"

Both Sang-ah and Hyun-sung tried to stop the angry people but they weren't listening and kept on shouting.

"Nearly killed you? No, we saved you," Queresha's clear voice cut through the shouts causing them to die down.

"W-What?"

"T-These fuckers,"

Of course, this only enraged them further, but that is exactly what Queresha wanted.

"If you think you were safe with how things were going, then you guys are more foolish than I initially thought," Queresha flatly stated looking at the dumbfounded people.

"Queresha-ssi…" Even Sang-ah was shocked, she never knew something like this was going to happen.

"I heard the landlord coalition charges 500 coins per person as protection fees for a single day, That would make it 3,500 coins for the whole week and this doesn't even include food and the fees he takes for the use of public facilities, Do I need to tell you what would've happened if you failed to make those payments?" Queresha said shutting up the people as they knew very well what would've happened to them. They've seen examples of it already.

"And that is not even the worst of your worries, don't tell me you didn't notice the number of green zones decreased compared to yesterday? What would you do if your green zone was next? Do you think the landlord Coalition would've helped you while you were left in the middle of the monsters? And even if you were lucky enough to survive the monsters, They would've likely taken more of your coins in exchange for help or would've directly killed you themselves," Queresha continued as no one really countered her, not even the Landlord coalition members who were in the crowd.

"So indeed, we did save you by doing this, is there anyone of you who would like to deny that?" Queresha looked around the crowd repeating her words.
