[Sponsor Selection has ended.]

I took a deep breath as I watched the messages floating in the air.

[Some constellations are greatly affected by your choice.]

[The constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' is greatly displeased at your choice.]

[The constellations belonging to Black Cloud are shaken by the anger of the Abyssal Black Flame Dragon. You won't be sponsored by any of the Black Cloud constellations for a while.]

[The constellation 'Demon-like Judge of Fire' is disappointed in you.]

[She will persistently monitor your justice in the future.]

[The constellation 'Unforgiving Undertaker' Is pleased with you're choice.]
[200 coins have been sponsored.]

[Now now, everyone has finished the selection. Rest here for a while. I have to go prepare the next scenario. I'll see you in 10 minutes!]

After the Sponsor Selection finished, the dokkaebi disappeared. He told me to rest, but these 10 minutes were really crucial.

In 10 minutes, I needed to sort out this situation and prepare for the following scenarios. I tried to recall my abilities in my head.

I quietly said 'Attribute Window'

As I am looking at all my skills I hear a clanging from the carriage in front of me and a bunch of people yelling.

I honestly don't want to get caught in that so I decided to leave the carriage early, I go up to the carriage door and kick it open without even checking if it could open.

Once I'm out the dokkaebi appears in front of me

[...Ah, this is really. I knew this would happen. Didn't I see it earlier? I told you not to go anywhere, Damn! The scenario isn't ready yet-]

The dokkaebi seemed to be angry as it floated over Dongho Bridge.

I just looked at him with a stern look because I really didn't want to deal with him and I just by now had nothing even close to patience.

[Sigh... it can't be helped. You are really a lucky human.]

It was because the second scenario started the moment the train door was opened.

[The second scenario has arrived!]

I Instantly started running across the bridge which wasn't taking too long, as I was almost past the halfway point I see people come out of their carriage too, but soon returned to running, I couldn't get distracted.

As I looked down from the side of the bridge There was a huge whirlpool in the center of Han River, letting out splashes of water.

And a giant monster was at the center of the splashes. An ichthyosaur. The problem was that the ichthyosaur seemed to be twice the size of the one I saw through the window.

This wasn't a sea serpent... it was a sea commander.

A general sea serpent was only a grade 7 monster. Given that a grade 9 monstrous land rate was difficult for normal humans to cope with, an average human would be torn apart by a grade 7 monster.

In other words, the guy coming now wasn't a monster that could be caught in the early stages. Of course, there was no need to catch it. It wasn't created to be caught.

Ku ku ku ku!

The Han River surged like there was a tsunami and the ichthyosaur moved. It was chewing on the legs of the bridge.

I looked back and saw a group of people running toward me or rather the end of the bridge

But I continued running, if I want to survive I must ignore others, they will just drag me down.

As soon as I crossed the line for the safe zone I continued walking, I just had nothing left in me, I felt as if I wasn't even awake... was I?
