Chapter 66: 3 Days Of Waiting


    1.


    When I opened themunity forum in the evening, this post was trending in real-time popr posts.


    [I think Kim Doha might have already arrived.]


    <hr>


    I live near Uljin, where the Haneul nuclear power nt is, so I immediately set out as soon as I saw the post.


    It didnt even take a day to get there, and now Im waiting at the power nt for other ability users to arrive.


    There are quite a few people like me, so over 10 ability users are already gathered here. Most lived nearby, so theyre either E-ss or F-sslol.


    Anyway, while we were waiting, one of the ability users said they saw someone with wings flying into the power nt carrying several people during the day.


    I didnt think much of it then, but the local authority here suddenly called us and told the E-ss and F-ss ability users to just go back.


    Considering they had been telling us to wait until now and suddenly say they dont need E-ss and F-ss, it seems likely that Kim Doha or some other high-ranked individual is here.


    Probably, that bastard said they didnt need us and told them to send us back


    Thinking about it makes me pissed, lol


    So, for now, Im holding out and refusing to leave.


    Who does he think he is, telling those who came to seal the rift to go back?


    Just because hes ranked 1st? Damn it, lol


    If they want to send us back, let Kim Dohae and say it directly. Id like to see his face, lol.


    <hr>


    In this zombie apocalypse, the existence of ability users was precious.


    They were indispensable for fighting against zombies, and there werent many of them.


    Hence, ability users naturally realized their status, and everyone had somewhat developed a thuggish side.


    Im a special existence, so you all should be beneath me.


    Such an attitude was emerging.


    The problem was that if someone epted this survival-of-the-fittest logic, they should properly grovel in front of ability users stronger than themselves. Yet, there were asionally those who, seemingly without ever having been put in their ce, recklessly acted out without assessing the situation.


    As expected, the guy who wrote this post seemed to carry that sort of attitude.


    Thements werent very favorable either.


    -If Doha says to leave, just leave, you damn jerk


    Why should I? What can you do if I dont leave, lol


    You dumbass, do you think youd even be a speck of dirt under a nail in sealing a B-ss rift? Know your ce and scram.


    Exactly, lets see Kim Dohas face and then leave, lol. Does it make sense for us, who arrivedter, to be told to disappear immediately?


    Ugh, damn, this guy doesnt get it


    Freaking hell, lol


    -The sess of this operation depends on the nuclear power nt, and this guyspletely lost it.


    -Upon hearing the news of Kim Dohas arrival, all the local pests have gathered, lol


    -Didnt he receive any home education?


    -Whats with this EF-ss punk acting cocky against a ranker?


    For real, lol


    Probably a narcissistic bug.


    After reading thements, I thought


    This guy seriously needs a good smack toe to his senses.


    I immediately called Director Seon Jong-yun.


    -Hello? Mr. Doha?


    Yes, Director. Are there any E-ss and F-ss ability users refusing to leave?


    -Ah actually, there are. I thought our D-ss ability user staff would handle it, but they came out in a lets give it a try manner. But its also not possible for them to really risk their lives and fight.


    They want to see my face, right?


    -Huh? How did you know?


    There was a post in themunity forum. Please gather all of those people in one ce. Tell them they can see Kim Dohas face as they wished.


    -Oh dear, will you be okay? Sorry for the trouble


    Its okay. Ill be there in 10 minutes.


    -Yes.


    After hanging up the phone, Serena and Ciel were looking my way.


    Should I kill them all for you?


    Serena asked with an innocent look on her face.


    Perhaps it was because thest opponents she had faced were the humanoid creatures that had attacked the department store at Jeongbalsan Station, which made her a bit aggressive.


    However, this situation wasnt that severe.


    There was no need to bring Serena and Ciel with me.


    You cant just kill people on a whim. Ill handle this alone, so rest here.


    Yes, Master.


    I left the room by myself.


    2.


    When I approached the room where the ability users were gathered, Director Seon Jong-yun was waiting for me.


    Mr. Doha, youve arrived.


    Yes. Was there any trouble?


    Not yet. Our employee, a D-ss ability user, is monitoring them inside. I tried asking them to leave peacefully once more, but I was rejected, and the atmosphere is quite tense now.


    I see. Lets go in and see.


    As soon as I finished speaking, I opened the guest room door.


    I quickly scanned the people inside.


    Firstly, a man dressed in a staff uniform stood near the entrance. He must be the D-ss ability user.


    As for the troublemakers


    Three werezily sitting around a round table, and two were on the sofa. A total of five.


    The guys were staring at me with wide eyes.


    Kim Doha?


    The one who spoke had tattoos densely packed on his arms and neck, visible from under his ck short-sleeved shirt. The tattoos had the vibe youd expect from real gangsters.


    Suddenly acting familiar, he approached with a grin.


    Mr. Kim Doha, Ive missed you. Im a fan.


    His tone didnt feel like that of a fan but rather carried azy, almost mocking vibe.


    Moreover, as he spoke, he brazenly took out his smartphone and snapped a photo of me.


    Click.


    Keeping a poker face, I watched him do so and then raised the tablet I brought with me so that all five of them could see its screen.


    Disyed on it was the trending post we had seen earlier.


    Which one of you wrote this post?


    Realizing the coldness in my voice, their expressions finally turned grave.


    The tattooed man who had just taken my picture replied with another smirk.


    Oh, that? I wrote it. Just out of my admiration for Mr. Kim Doha, I wanted to see your face once


    Bullshit. Talking as if it was some kind of fandom.


    I swiftly grabbed his smartphone, exerting force with my grip.


    The smartphones screen shattered into dust and crumpled like a piece of toilet paper.


    Crackle-!


    That should have destroyed the storage containing the photo as well.


    cing the crumpled ball that used to be his smartphone onto his stunned hand, I said,


    You said you wanted to see my face, right? Now that youve seen it, get out of here.


    All these jerks here had tantly ignored Director Seon Jong-yuns polite request for them to leave.


    There was no need to treat them with respect or decorum.


    Seeing his smartphone get crushed, the guys expression contorted in anger.


    What the hell? Just because youre number one in ranking, you think you can do this?


    The tattooed man clenched his fists, seemingly ready to pounce.


    At this point, there was no need to continue this tedious conversation.


    There was also no need to wait and see if this guy would use some unknown ability.


    Silently, I threw a punch right into his face.


    Thud-!


    He, of course, didnt have time to react, and my fist connected squarely with his face.


    It felt like I mightve broken a bone due to the force.


    When I pulled my hand back, his nose appeared to bepletely smashed in.


    It wouldve been better if he had half the resilience to match his bad attitude.


    He promptly fainted and copsed to the ground.


    He was probably an ability user, however weak, so he shouldnt be dead from that.


    I hadnt intended to kill him, so I just made sure to rough him up appropriately.


    A heavy silence enveloped the room.


    The other four, who had been sitting, now awkwardly stood up, all of them eyeing me warily.


    Brushing off the blood on my fist, I finally spoke.


    Hey, you guys.


    Yes, yes!


    Yes!


    The visibly shaken group responded.


    Why didnt you guys leave when Director Seon Jong-yun asked you nicely?


    Well, thats


    Im Im sorry.


    They were now exceedingly polite.


    Theyd probably leave if I told them to right now, but that wasnt all I wanted.


    More of these guys might appear in the next three days.


    And I didnt want to repeat this scene every time, so I decided to make an example out of these guys.


    If youre sorry, gather here, kneel, and raise your hands.


    Do you want to lie down next to this guy?


    Pointing at the guy whose face was smashed, the four hesitating ability users promptly knelt and raised their hands, looking quite embarrassed.


    I then took a picture that captured both the unconscious guy and the four of them clustered together.


    Snap.


    Good. All four of you write an apology on a full A4-sized paper. If you write carelessly, youll end up like this guy.


    Answer.


    Yes!


    Well write it!


    I turned to address a power nt worker who was staring at me nkly.


    Could you watch them to make sure they write their apologies properly?


    He stiffened as if I were his boss and replied.


    Yes! Understood!


    Thank you.


    3.


    I posted the photo of those guys kneeling with their hands up and the four apology letters to themunity.


    With a post titled, [E-ss, F-ss, please leave gracefully when asked nicely.].


    With this, I doubt thered be any more guys acting tough.


    Anyone who did would essentially be saying, I want to get hit and write an apology too!.


    Thements were mostly positive.


    -LMAO


    -Kim Doha is tougher than I thought, LOL


    -ROFL


    -Feels so refreshing


    -Did those idiots really think they stood a chance against a ranker in real life? Did their guts spill out? LOL


    Just act tough on the inte against rankers, LOL


    For real, LOL


    They always talk about rankers lightly in themunity, probably lost their sense of reality


    Iveughed so hard after a long time


    -The sincerity in those apology letters is damn hrious


    For the next three days, having little to do, I spent most of my time browsing themunity.


    With everyone thirsty for news on the Haneul Power nt, any rted post skyrocketed in poprity.


    Rumors about rankers were no exception.


    Posts like, Rank 9 has set off for the power nt, Rank 3 seemed to have left a while ago, Rank 2s identity hasnt been revealed yet, but who could it be were all over.


    I waited, munching on the lunch boxes provided by Mr. Sangdeok, with Serena and Ciel.


    And now, three dayster


    It was time to form a party and explore the rift.


    I entered the conference room where all the ability users had gathered.
