Episode 10

Episode 10

-Drip.

-Droop.

-Drip.

Among all the creatures I’ve killed so far.

Orc blood is the stickiest.

The stench is terrible too.

“Phew….”

I took off my blood-soaked t-shirt and wrung it out.

Blood drips down, drip drip drip.

If I have time, I’ll go back to that bathroom and wash it.

Anyway, for now I have no choice but to wear it.

The moment I put the sticky t-shirt back on.

Ah.

Already level 5?

I think I was level 3 or 4 after finishing the Tutorial.

I must have leveled up again from killing that orc just now.

Level 5.

This is when you get your second skill.

Every time your level goes up by 5, you gain a new skill.

The basic skill you get during the Tutorial and.

The basic skill you get at level 5 are the most important.

Because these two skills can determine your future.

My basic skill is [Murder Talent].

What will my second skill be?

Countless letters spin around like a roulette wheel in the system window.

Then they suddenly stop….

Thousand Kill Strike?

Is this a skill related to Thousand Kill Star?

Defense ignore?

I want to eat defense.

…Wait, not that. If it’s defense ignore, isn’t that incredible?

Doesn’t that mean even stabbing with a toothpick would deal damage?

-Swish.

-Swoosh.

I wiped my knife on the dead orc’s clothes.

‘It would be nice if I could test it out.’

I looked around.

Just in case this orc had any companions.

But there was nothing in sight.

“What a shame.”

A shame?

I muttered to myself again without realizing it.

Damn. Am I going to develop a split personality at this rate?

Anyway.

-Rattle.

What’s this now?

Something’s rattling in the orc’s pocket.

When I took it out, it was a blood-soaked card key.

It’s not something an orc would normally carry around.

“Hmm.”

Looking closely, the letters on the card key are the same as the characters on the Dining Hall sign.

Which means?

“Like a meal ticket.”

I hung the card key around my neck.

Maybe I can get food with this.

The Dining Hall felt like a buffet-style cafeteria.

-Beep.

When I held the card key up to what looked like a scanner,

-Flash!

A green light blinked.

Then some kind of mechanical device started moving and making humming sounds.

After a moment.

“Wow!!!”

The empty food zone gets filled with warm dishes.

Tteokbokki.

Fried foods.

Sundae.

Fish cake.

Kimbap.

“Amazing!”

The exact foods I was craving appeared.

There are various types of tteokbokki too.

Rice tteokbokki, wheat tteokbokki, cheese tteokbokki, rosé tteokbokki, even jjajang tteokbokki.

The fried foods range from my favorite kimari to squid fritters, shrimp fritters, egg fritters, bread fritters, sweet potato fritters, vegetable fritters…!

The sundae is steaming hot too.

Can’t forget the liver either.

There are two types of kimbap: regular kimbap and tuna kimbap.

The fish cake broth even has bright red crab in it.

-Growl.

The hunger I’d forgotten comes rushing back.

I grabbed a tray and started ladling tteokbokki.

Let’s go with the classic first.

Spicy and thick rice tteokbokki with kimari and squid fritters.

“Kuhaa!!!”

The tteokbokki is hot, spicy, and chewy.

The fritters are so crispy they could scrape the roof of my mouth.

I dip a kimbap-sized kimari in the broth and bite down in one go!

-Munch munch.

This is no joke.

It tastes way better than most franchises.

The sundae is perfectly chewy for dipping in broth too.

The liver is savory.

The kimbap tastes exactly like homemade!!!

-Gulp, gulp.

The fish cake broth is as refreshing as seafood soup.

“Keuuu.”

This is killing me. So good.

To think I can fill my stomach with snack food.

I’ve really become an adult!

“Ugh, I’m so full.”

Even after eating for so long, the food hadn’t decreased at all.

After I finished my last glass of cola.

All the food disappeared at once.

“Hmm, so that’s how this system works.”

Not only the food but even the dishes completely vanished.

But since the feeling of fullness remains, the food must have been real.

It’s fortunate that I can fill my stomach like this.

I thought I’d be stuck just filling up on water.

“Meeting that Orc was lucky.”

I even got this card key.

Good. Let’s make this place my base for now.

The Bathroom is a temporary base.

It seems like you need a card key to eat food here.

To those who don’t know better, this place would be just like an empty lot.

Just securing water and food gives me an overwhelming advantage.

Now that I have a base, should I search the surrounding area centered on this place?

They definitely said I could get various rewards by searching the interior.

Basic materials are good too.

If I’m lucky, I might even get items, skills, or summoned creatures.

This is a low-level area, so I’m not expecting anything amazing.

I’d be satisfied just getting something moderately useful.

With 30 days, I’ll have plenty of time.

I should search every nook and cranny.

I grabbed the card key and Chinese sword and headed out of the Dining Hall.

And then…

“Huh!”

I couldn’t help but be surprised by the sight I encountered in the Hallway.

‘This was a Spaceship…’

There were windows in the Hallway, and the view beyond them was outer space.

Countless stars repeatedly moved away and came closer.

No wonder.

It felt so sci-fi.

‘So this was the concept.’

An alien isn’t going to pop out now, is it?

That movie was really scary…

Now that I have the Thousand Deaths trait, would it not be scary if I watched it again?

I should watch it once I return.

While having such thoughts, I explored, no, searched the Hallway.

I can see several open rooms.

But there wasn’t much useful stuff.

Just felt like miscellaneous junk.

Even when I opened boxes and such, nothing really caught my attention.

I don’t really know what they’re used for either.

“Nothing special.”

I wonder how many rooms this is already.

Finding items isn’t easy.

-Creak.

Then let me at least change clothes.

Since I’m a complete mess from Orc blood.

I opened the broken wardrobe door.

There were several sets of clothes inside.

“Hmm, the size doesn’t fit.”

The owner of this room must have been a small species, or a woman.

All the clothes are too small.

Still, isn’t there at least one stretched-out shirt or something?

After rummaging through the clothes a few more times.

“Oh!”

Something came out.

Can this be called… clothes?

“It might fit if I’m lucky.”

It’s a space suit that looks like it came from a movie.

Made of metallic-feeling fabric, in a body-hugging style.

Nexkia?

Is this the name of the alien species that operated this Spaceship?

It even has abilities!

Totally lucky!

I immediately threw off the t-shirt soaked with Orc blood.

The space suit looked like a bodysuit, but surprisingly stretched easily and was easy to put on.

When I pressed the button on the wrist, the slightly loose clothing clung perfectly to my body.

And at the same time.

“It definitely feels different.”

I feel both lighter and more solid.

Ooh, this is good!

Isn’t there a helmet or something?

I searched the wardrobe more, but couldn’t find any other items.

Well then, let me abandon any lingering attachment and move quickly.

I grabbed the Chinese sword and headed outside again.

“…!”

I thought the feeling in the Hallway was somehow different.

I can hear footsteps from far away.

Judging by how heavy they sound, it seems like quite a large species.

‘It’s a Werewolf…’

There were three Werewolves walking from the end of the Hallway.

No, three of them?

If they’re both wolves and humans, how exactly should I count them?

Anyway, three Werewolves were walking toward this direction.

Orcs, and now Werewolves too.

The other dimension is overflowing with non-human species.

While I was admiring this.

“Hey! Look over there!”

“A human? It’s a human!”

“A human, you say?”

The werewolves discovered me.

“Kekekeke. Perfect timing.”

“We were hungry since we couldn’t find any food…”

“A snack just walked right up to us!”

The werewolves all burst into laughter together.

I looked at them and readjusted my grip on the Chinese dao.

‘Finally, I can confirm what the Thousand Kill Strike is.’

I’m the one who wants to laugh, you bastards.

Thanks for showing up!

It would’ve been troublesome if orcs were the only other species!

“Slurp…”

The werewolves licked their lips as they walked toward me.

“He’s not even running away.”

“Is he crazy?”

“Kekeke. Crazy or not, he’ll taste the same either way!”

The moment they bared their sharp fangs.

-KRAAAAAAANG!!!!

With a sudden roar, the hallway wall crumbles.

And what appeared was.

‘It’s the seeker…!’

That alien movie-like monstrosity from before.

Strange skin that was neither scales nor leather.

Black mucus was flowing over its surface.

Countless teeth crushed all three werewolves at once.

-Squish! Squish! Squish!

The wet sound of bones and flesh being crushed.

-Squish! Squish! Squish!

The hallway was instantly filled with the stench of blood.

-Thump. Thump. Thump.

My heart began beating in rhythm with the squishing sounds.

Because of fear?

No.

Anticipation from the appearance of new prey.

Because of that anticipation.

-Thump. Thump. Thump.

I couldn’t hold back.

Even knowing this was a survival battle, not an extermination battle.

-Dash!

I immediately rushed forward.

The monstrosity didn’t even pretend to notice me.

Ignored.

It was natural.

Just because a single ant charges forward.

No human would bother paying attention to that.

Well, it works out fine for me.

As long as it doesn’t run away, I’m grateful.

-Slash!!!

The Chinese dao pierced into the monstrosity’s side.

It looked like a body that would deflect anything.

But I could see exactly where to stab.

Plus.

With [Thousand Kill Strike].

-KIYAAAAAAAAAAK!!!!!!!

A horrifyingly terrible scream echoed through the air.

Screaming instead of roaring.

This was probably a first for it too.

-The seeker cannot be killed.

Just as the warning in the training manual stated.

It was an existence that ‘could not be killed.’

But I am…

“You really have bad luck.”

[Thousand Kill Nature]

A killer sent by heaven.

In other words, an existence that can kill anything.

-Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

Every time I swung the Chinese dao.

I felt it hitting solid bone.

The attacks were working.

But cutting through in one strike seemed impossible.

-KIEEEEEEEEK!!!!

The monstrosity wasn’t just standing still either.

Its front paw with scythe-like sharp claws lunged at my neck.

-Whoosh!

I barely dodged the attack and pulled out the Chinese dao.

And.

-Slice!!!!

I swung the pulled-out Chinese dao as is,

-Slash!!!!

Cutting off the toe joint with the claws.

Black mucus splattered instead of blood.

-Hissssss…

And the lower bodies of the werewolves hit by the mucus began melting away.

Acidic?

Even with the spacesuit, I should be careful, right?

-KIIIIIIIIIK!!!!

Before the bizarre cry even stopped.

-Slice!!!

I cut off the claws on the other side as well.

-Slash!

I avoided the acidic liquid this time too.

The monstrosity, having lost both sharp front paws, looked at me helplessly.

Hey.

What’s wrong.

You still have your teeth left.

-Ki, kiek…!

Hesitate, hesitate.

The monstrosity backing away.

-KIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

It let out a scream.

But instead of charging at me again, it quickly started running away.

Huh?

Do monsters usually run away too?

“Hey! What are you doing running away!”

I quickly chased after the monstrosity.

But it was faster than me.

“Damn it! Come back! Come back here!”

I hadn’t even gotten a proper hit in yet!

I ran with all my might.

Don’t go!

Almost as desperately as trying to catch a departing lover.

“If I catch you, you’re dead!!!”

Huff, gasp.

Even after leveling up, my stamina still can’t keep up?

Damn it, I could really kill it!

“Kgh, huff…”

Watching the monster getting farther and farther away.

“I’m going to catch you and kill you!!”

I howled in the empty corridor.

“Please come back~!!!!”
