The Encounter (2)

Pov exchange {Shinji}

I appeared in the shadows, across from the bridge. This ability had more uses than I thought, as ı moved, ı was able to take others with me.

Speaking of my skills, do you know how I was able to stop Joonghyuk so easily, I earned a lot of new coins while killing zombies and with my newly earned coins, I increased all my stats by five.

I started walking with Ichika on my shoulder, I should have found a place to wait but I felt some glances looking at us.

'Oh, I had forgotten about them', I wonder if I wanted a system that spoke from Aphrodite, maybe I could use it as a reminder.

I heard someone say "Hey, hello"

Got out of my thoughts and said, "Hello"

"A friend of ours was in a difficult situation, do you know what happened to him?"

I looked at Lee Hyungsuk who was speaking, I smiled slightly and I said,

"Yes we've cleared all the zombies and he's talking to my friend right now."

"Your friend?"

"Yes, it's a complete nuisance, but it won't kill your friend, don't worry"

Lee Hyungsuk frowned, "Well, do you know why they're talking?"

"I don't know, they may have met before, or they may have other reasons"

Someone in the back said, "Why should we trust you?"

I looked at the person who was talking and I saw Yoo Sangah, she was a girl above the standards. After appreciating her beauty with my gaze, I smiled sly and said,

"You can't trust it."

Then, with Ichika on my shoulder, I started walking to the edge of the bridge. As I walked, everyone watched me in amazement.

I leaned against a pile of rubble I had found, and I said, "But we can wait together, right?"

Ichika jumped off my shoulder and landed next to me, leaning against the rubble as I did. This girl knows how to be cool, sometimes I think she might be my missing daughter, but then I deny it, I definitely can't have made a six year old child in one day.

Then others came to us. Yoo Sangah asked,

"Little girl, what's your name?"

"Ichika Ryuzaki"

"Pleased to meet you Ichika, I'm Yoo Sangah"

"I'm Lee Hyungsuk"

Then everyone turned their gaze to me.

"I am Shinji Ryuzaki"

"Oh Ichika is your sister"

"No don't get too hung up on last names"

"Oh... I understand." Yes he certainly didn't.

While we were chatting a little more and getting to know each other, Joonghyuk came, he looked around and when he saw me, he walked over to us.

"Yes folks, this guy is the friend I'm talking about, his name is Yoo Joonghyuk."

"These people are Yoo Sangah and Lee Hyungsuk."

Lee Hyungsuk said, "Hi, I wonder if you know what happened to our friend, Ryuzaki told us that he was talking to you."

Yoo Joonghyuk looked at me and I just shrugged, this asocial guy had to handle the rest.

"Eeh...he said he had a few jobs before the station and told his friends they needed to get ahead."

"Look, did you hear he wasn't dead"

Lee Hyungsuk "I'm relieved, thank you for saying it" said.

"So shall we go together, we are already going to the same place."

"I'm sorry but I need to go somewhere else"

"Ichika will you go with them"

The girl looked at the group and shook her head, even though she was unhappy.

"Yoo Sangah can you take a look at him"

"Of course, let's talk a little bit while Ichika goes"

Lee Hyungsuk said "Then I'll see you later" as he left.

I turned to Joongyuk, who looked at me with narrow eyes, and I said,

"What?"

"Do you ask"

"Umm... well, I'll get some food and come back."

"Is that just that"

"Maybe"

He sighed and "just don't die, I need you"

I got serious and looked at his face, "Well, as my friend" I shook my head when I heard the ending.

I grabbed his shoulder and said, "Protect the girl, Yoo Sangah will take care of her anyway, you just have to protect her."

"I have things to do if you don't come right away, I'll leave."

"Well, okay."

I turned around, put my hands in my pocket and started walking, 'so, what should I do now?'

[Your sponsor is the 'Ruler Of Darkness', he tells you to kick the ass]

"Hey old man calm down a bit, It's not time for a fight yet."

[Your sponsor is silent]

"That's how it is, step by step, follow my story of becoming the strongest."

[Your sponsor says he'll be there for you as you get stronger]

[5000 coins sponsored]

'Oh quite helpful as expected from the strongest lord'

Then let's do some work.

Then the shadows swallowed me and I disappeared.
