Chapter 5

Choi Jihyeok was dumbfounded.

I don't know what point struck his sore spot, but he was really upset.

"You and I are different- ack!"

I pinched Choi Jihyeok as hard as I could, and he rubbed his arm with a puzzled face.

"See? How're we different?"

"So what. You want to go out with me? Are you crazy?"

"Wouldn't the two of us be better than one of you?"

Choi Jihyeok laughed openly as if he was full of energy at my words.

There seemed to be a subtle hint of madness in his expression.

He looked uneasy.

"Do you think you'll be helpful in this situation?"

"Well, a lot more than you are now? I found the syringe, not you."

"......."

Choi Jihyeok looked at the syringe as if he had nothing to say at my words.

Anyway, in conclusion, it wasn't him but me who found the item that was a clue to getting out of this place.

Choi Jihyeok seemed to agree with my words to a certain extent, and his expression returned to normal in an instant.

Then he put on a face full of anxiety and started arguing,

"Just stay still, right?"

At those words, I stared at Choi Jihyeok.

After a long time, I opened my mouth.

"Do you really want to go alone?"

He couldn't answer my question easily.

His reaction was a bit overkill.

He froze hard as if he had been stabbed and moved creakily as if something was broken.

"I'm comfortable alone."

"I also brought crutches."

When I grabbed my crutches, Choi Jihyeok turned away from me and tousled his hair in annoyance.

"You're not going alone because you're worried about me, are you?"

At my words, he pursed his lips. It seemed I was right.

It seemed pretty boy Choi Jihyeok was backed into a corner.

So I pretended to smile brightly and whispered into his ear,

"To be honest, I'm more afraid of being locked up here alone."

Choi Jihyeok frowned and sighed loudly.

"We have to hold out here until the situation outside clears up. There are more terrible people out there than in here."

I frowned at his words.

I really didn't get what he was saying at all.

Choi Jihyeok looked at my expression for a while and then irritatedly opened his mouth again.

"14 hours. That's how long it takes for the first dungeon to finish. So, you have to endure here for 14 hours."

***

It was impossible for a normal person to clear a dungeon.

This was because the monsters in the dungeon were too powerful for ordinary people to deal with, and the protection of the system was not given to the general public.
