People reacted differently after the dokkaebi disappeared. Some people tried to get out of the train while others called the police.
Yoo Sangah belonged to the latter group. "Police, the police aren't answering! What, what should I..."
"Calm down, Yoo Sangah-ssi," I said, staring straight into Yoo Sangah's unfocused eyes. "Yoo Sangah-ssi. Have you ever played the game that the development team made? A game where the world is destroyed and only a few people survive."
"Huh? What are you say..."
"Think about it. We are in a game right now."
Yoo Sangah silently licked her lips. "Game..."
"It is simple. Don't hesitate to do as I tell you. Understood?"
"U-Understood. What should I do?"
"Stay still."
Finally, I slowly controlled my breathing. I too needed time to properly accept all of this.
[Three Ways to Survive in a Ruined World]
The descriptions that existed only in the novel were now unfolding right before my eyes.
「The dokkaebi stretched out its antenna. 」
「 The bodies scattered like trash in the carriage. 」
「 The bloodied office worker shaking. 」
「An old lady groaning in her seat. 」
I watched every scene intently. It was like Neo in the Matrix, who suspected reality. Observing, questioning, and then eventually being convinced... I had to admit it. I didn't know the reason why, but there were no doubts about it.
'Ways of Survival' had become a reality.
Let me think... How should I survive in this new world?
"Come on, everybody! Everybody calm down. Start breathing calmly." Someone stepped forward exactly five minutes after the dokkaebi disappeared.
He was a sturdy man with short cut hair, one head taller than the average height.
"Are you calm yet? Please stop your actions and pay attention to me for a moment."
The people sobbing or making calls stopped. Once everyone's eyes were gathered on him, the big man opened his mouth again, "As you know, in the event of a national disaster, small disturbances can cause large human casualties. That's why I will now control the situation."
"What, who are you?"
"A national disaster situation? What are you saying?"
Some people belatedly recovered and strongly resisted the world 'control.' Then the young man pulled a government official card out of his wallet. "I am currently an army lieutenant serving in the 6502 unit."
Some people's faces became relieved. "A soldier, he is a soldier."
However, it was too early to be relieved.
"I just received a message from my unit."
People gathered in front of the soldier's smartphone. I was able to read the contents without difficulty because I was near it.
–A level 1 national disaster situation has occurred. All troops gather quickly.
I could hear gulps all around me. It was a national disaster situation. I wasn't surprised because I had already expected this. In fact, I was surprised because of something else.
