Starting the Paid Service (4)
Laughter emerged. I had to clear my eyes and look again to see if it was a lie. The file extension was TXT. Then this person… The gift he sent me was a copy of his novel?
[You have obtained an exclusive attribute.]
[The exclusive skill slot has been activated.]
I heard a message in my ear after running the file. It wasn't surprising if the world had changed into 'Ways of Survival.' All survivors of Ways of Survival had exclusive attribute and skills.
I quietly said 'Attribute Window' in my mind. I needed to know the attribute that I received.
[You can't activate the Attribute Window.]
What? I once again tried to call out 'Attribute Window' but the result was the same.
It was absurd. There was something like this? If I couldn't use the Attributes Window, I couldn't know what attributes or skills I have.
Knowing oneself and one enemy's meant being invincible. But this was a situation where I didn't even know myself, let alone the enemy.
After staring into space for a while, I gave up and decided to read the text that the author gave me.
[Your reading speed has increased due to the effect of the exclusive attribute.]
I didn't know what the attribute as, but it took me less than a minute to read the first act of Ways of Survival thanks to the attribute effect.
I found it. The place where my finger stopped was the beginning of the work, where the main character was doing some 'action' in the train scene.
「 He saw people gathered at the back door of the 3707 carriage. The wheel of the tightly held lighter was cold.
In this life, he absolutely couldn't make a mistake. He would use any means for his purpose.
The expression of fear on the people's faces. He didn't feel any guilt.
Everything was fleeting.
He looked at the people with merciless eyes. After a while, his fingertips moved and fire rose. Then it all started. 」
A chill went down my spine and I had to read the passage again and again. The reason for my discomfort was soon revealed.
“…3707.”
I reflexively checked the number of the carriage I was riding.
[3807].
The carriage I was on right now was behind the carriage that the protagonist was riding. My hands faintly shook.
…Wait a minute. How many people originally survived this carriage?
「 He looked through the blurred window at the 3807 carriage. It was already too late. It was inevitable. Anyway, only two people survived in that carriage. 」
Only two survived. It meant that everyone died except for two people. And I already knew who those two people were.
I raised my head and looked blankly at Yoo Sangah. Maybe this woman would die. Me as well.
“Dokjssi, shouldn't we stop this?”
Something was starting in the place where Yoo Sangah pointed. It was groaning. A young man was crouching down in front of the elderly woman.
“Shit, I'm in a bad mood and this old lady keeps whining and groaning! Won't you shut up?”
The young man was a male student who had been leaning against the entrance.
He was thin and had dyed white hair. His name was written on the badge attached to his uniform.
Kim Namwoon. It was a name that I knew.
「 Only Lee Hyunsung and Kim Namwoon survived in that carriage. It doesn't matter. They are the only two I need anyway. 」
“Didn't I tell you to shut up?”
The insects were released and jumped as hard as they could for freedom.
