For a moment, the atmosphere became quiet. Ryou pointed to the end line of the point.
“Only this part has not been fully fulfilled, although we have just escaped from their pursuit”
“True. And if this writing is correct, then we will be safe with selected players” said Kaito while looking at the figure of someone
“The chosen player here is you, Song Haneul-san”
“What? I'm the chosen player?!”
How surprised Song Haneul was to hear it.
“Why am I? Aren't you guys wrong?”
“No. Thas right. Song Haneul-san is the chosen player who has been arranged according to this script. Song Haneul-san had also expected this to be the reality, right? You should have known this since the event turned into weird”
“.....” Song Haneul was speechless hearing Kino's sentence
“It...I initially just guessed it and–”
“Song Haneul-san already knows it and you proved it too. Didn't Song Haneul-san clearly say that they were actually there as I explained the existence of the zombies at the gate of the dormitory?”
Song Haneul was still silent. Seeing the woman's response, Ryou was a little irritated.
“We don't need to discuss this anymore, Kino. I know you're just trying to deny all that, Song Haneul. But, this is not the time to do a denial”
Kaito is trying to give Song Haneul some faith this time.
“Can't you assume the three of us are live players who have made it out safely with selected players? That makes more sense, doesn't it? That way, the last part about the key to our success out of here has the opportunity to become a reality”
“Being reality?”
“Bar”
“Song Haneul-san, you alone are living from these three [Event Horror Apps] app makers. If Song Haneul-san doesn't want everything to end up being a regret, we have to finish it with”
The last words spoken by Kino made the woman start thinking.
‘If true, it means the end of this event has been determined. Although there is no time limit written in the explanation of the script of the event, but if everything written becomes reality means we are sure to still succeed’
“Song Haneul, strengthen yourself for the sake of your two comrades. We will also not let you die in vain” Ryou said with a serious look
Hearing that remark, Song Haneul finally began to have a little courage to accept reality.
“We will definitely be safe, right?” Song Haneul tried to reassure his heart
“Congratulations. We'll make happy”
“None of us wants to die young. At least, you can live with the hope of your two friends” Kaito tried to give him spirit
After they finished strengthening their hearts, the next plan was immediately drawn up. Not everything will involve Song Haneul since there are other goals the three teenagers have, but for now there is a focus that must come first.
“We should focus on getting the key to open the main gate. Ignore the others for now. That key is the main target”
Ryou tried to convince everyone. He even put emphasis on the word ‘ignore the others’ while looking towards Kaito when saying it.
‘He tried to insinuate me huh?’ kaito thinks
“Ryou correct. That key is what we have to get. The current level of difficulty was how to escape the zombies in the corridor passageway until outside” Kino started to look serious
“Fighting with them will only further deplete our energy, but not doing anything will only keep the amount fixed. At least reducing them a little will help” Ryou said
Kaito thought for a moment.
‘With my ability and speed, I might be able to kill over 50 zombies at once. But when it's near the main gate later, I don't know the estimation of the zombies waiting there’
‘Kino's attack speed with the weapon is now good enough so I'm not worried. And for Ryou, that trait had already brought about the development of a strong fighting style. The main problem was Song Haneul’
‘Even if he is the chosen player referred to by the writing, I still can not guarantee himself to be able to fight or just protect himself. If something happens and one of us has to protect it, is it possible?’
From that thought, Kaito asked Song Haneul.
“Fight?”
“You have two blades in your hand to protect yourself. I wonder if you can fight to protect yourself?”
“I...I have never fought before”
“I understand that, but I'm sure there will be times when the three of us won't be able to protect you. We will try not to involve you in the fight. However, if the number of zombies in front of the main gate will not lose much.I'm just worried you have to fight”.
“Ah...” Song Haneul is starting to get anxious
“Kaito-san.
“I have to enter all possibilities, Kino. In battle, there are always opportunities. Whether it's a chance of victory or a chance of death. Of course I will protect all of you too, but there are times when luck does not always side with us”
“Iya. For example luck yours” Ryou joked without thinking long
“Thank you for reminding me” said Kaito with a flat face
“Sama-sama”
What a scathing satire that knows no time and place from Ryou. Despite being in serious mode, she never lost the moment of saying the phrase ‘cooling soul’ to Kaito.
Song Haneul who was initially anxious turned a little better.
“We ignored that one and went back to the topic. The point is, I want to make sure that at the very least, you should be ready to dirty your hands with that weapon”
Song Haneul had already realized since seeing Lee Seung Chan's zombie back then. He was too weak to see his friend killed. But it's a matter of life and death.
“I understand. If I had to, I would fight. No, I'm ready to fight! I don't want to make you bother. Moreover, I understand that their large number could have made the three of you unable to fully focus on the other side of”
“That's exactly” Kaito smiled at hearing the sentence
“Kaito, I'm ready to fight. You focus on what is in front of you and I will also strive to fight”
Little was still doubted by the three teenagers, but it was still accepted. In the end, they would also continue to protect him.
“Now, we have to tell those in the archive” building proposed Kino
“Now them it...”
“Safe student, Song Haneul-san. As we told you, your juniors who survived gathered there and I think they should know this to make them watch out”
Song Haneul smiled happily. It was an idea so that all the students in the archive building could believe that they had survived.
******
In the archive building, some of the students had just eaten and some had gone to sleep because they were mentally tired. Several people including Seo Salt and Kang Ji Song stood guard at the front with guns.
Not long after, the phones of the students who were still active started to vibrate. Ha Jinan and Kim Yuram who were sitting on the floor near the food spot noticed
“Yuram, your phone is vibrating” Ha Jinan told Kim Yuram beside him
As soon as Kim Yuram picked up her phone lying on the floor, they were all taken aback.
“This is a statement from the group! Someone sent a chat in [Event Horror Apps]” said one student
Kim Yuram looked almost crying from pleasure. Ha Jinan who looked at Kim Yuram's phone screen instantly picked up and opened her phone as well.
“This...Kino-ssi and everything” Ha Jinan smiled happily.
Seo Garam and the curious Kang Ji Song approached the two and saw what the message was in the group.
“Photo? Uh! Song Haneul-sunbae and the three of them!!”
“Thank God, they really are already together with sunbae. Thankfully”
A photo sent by the contact [Song Haenul EHA] had created a smile of happiness for all of them. The photo that became another source of happiness amidst the monstrous creatures out there.
