Absolute Person in Every Corner - Absolute Person in Every Corner chapter 21

[Episode 05] Expansion (2)

[No. 2902]

Of course, without pressing the doorbell, I immediately grabbed the doorknob and turned it.

Unlocking the front door wasn’t difficult.

It was easy to deal with electronic devices included in the household area.

however.

Clap!

I couldn’t do anything about the analog lock.

‘Damn it!’

Clack-clack-!

‘Is there any way?’

I instantly thought of how to get down through the upstairs window, but it was impossible.

This is because it was not possible to completely go outside the window due to the limitation of the area of each corner of the house.

There was enough space to reach out a hand or head out of the living room window, but not enough to go outside at all.

‘that’s right. A newly acquired skill!’

I was thinking about a new skill that I hadn’t checked because I wasn’t in a hurry.

Everywhere Absolute’s Invisible Hand Lv. One

-Summon and control the invisible hand.

‘bingo!’

I tried the skill right away.

There was something I felt while using the Dignity Maintenance skill or the Absolute Eye skill, but there was only one thing that was the most important thing in using the skill.

‘My will.’

What I wanted was the most important factor.

The moment I drew the image of releasing the safety ring on the front door, the safety ring came crashing down with the feeling of something coming out of my body.

Koo-ung!

“…”

The invisible hand shattered the safety ring all too easily.

It was so strong that part of the front door, from which the safety ring had been forcibly removed, was bent.

As I stared at the heavily damaged, open front door, I belatedly thought of a better way.

‘…I wish I had used the summoning skill.’

Come to think of it, I wish I had summoned Hyungjun Choi from the inside who was doing nothing to open the door.

But what can I do?

It’s already spilled water.

‘Let’s think about saving people first.’

He lit a light in a dark house.

A bright light illuminated the entire house, and I saw Kim Da-jung fainting as if she had fallen asleep in the center of the living room.

he was a pretty person

Even though she has reached the limit of her life and looks haggard, her shining beauty is not completely covered.

‘Why the hell am I doing this here?’

Why is it on the living room floor?

There are even decent beds in the master bedroom and the small room. There wasn’t even a futon in the living room.

“Hey. Come to your senses.”

I gently tapped her on the cheek.

I grabbed the unresponsive girl by the shoulders and shook her body, but it was the same.

I was shaking helplessly, but I couldn’t come to my senses.

Only her barely held breath proved that she was still alive.

‘The condition is worse than expected.’

Crisp skin, sunken eyes, dry lips. There was also a slight fever.

Even so, her beauty that couldn’t be hidden was truly unrealistic, like seeing a princess in a fairy tale.

‘It’s a sign of severe dehydration.’

I didn’t understand.

That’s also because there were still water bottles left in the kitchen.

The capacity was small, about 300ml, but there were dozens of Isis bottled water that fit in your hand.

If I had taken care of them on time, I wouldn’t have fallen into such severe dehydration.

There were snacks and chocolates on the Irish table, and there were even different types of ramen in the cupboard.

There is food and drinking water, but to come to the brink of death like this.

‘What are you going to do, this woman?’

Did you really intend to die?

Looking at it, it seemed that the two hands gathered together seemed to accept death calmly.

Even if I had made up my mind to die, I had no intention of letting her die.

be sure to save

‘What should I do?’

I learned in the military that you shouldn’t blindly make a patient with such severe dehydration drink water.

In particular, I knew that it was very dangerous for an unconscious patient because there was a risk of airway obstruction.

‘The standard way is to send her to the emergency room.’

The only solution was to increase blood flow in the body through intravenous injection.

However, there was no way there would be a hospital in a ruined world, and there were no paramedics to dispatch to this place.

First of all, Da-jung Kim’s legs were lifted as first aid.

It was to pass the time by driving blood from the legs to the heart to maintain the function of the major organs for as long as possible.

‘If I can’t do anything like this, I’ll really die.’

She was a woman with healing powers.

I couldn’t let it go this easily.

‘I must live.’

what can i do

I looked at each skill I had. Among the items registered in the store and in the warehouse, there was nothing that would be of help to Da-jeong Kim.

After thinking about it for a while, an exquisite idea came to mind.

‘Could it be possible to use it like this?’

There was no need to worry.

It was enough to test it right now.

‘Quest given, reward is recovery from dehydration.’

The quest content was to breathe once.

And.

[Citizen Dajeong Kim has completed the quest.]

[The quest costs 10,000,000 won.]

‘succeded!’

A whopping 10 million won was spent on the quest, but it was not a waste.

“Mmm.”

That’s because the effect was certain.

Dajeong Kim slowly opened her eyes and looked at the light in the living room, then raised her arms while frowning.

“Hey, Dajeong Kim. Are you awake?”

The moment our eyes meet her.

[Citizen Kim Da-jung’s credibility increases.]

A notification appeared that the reliability had increased.

‘It’s like this again.’

It wasn’t just Kim Da-jung’s case that the reliability rose as soon as they met.

Oh Eon-joo was like that, and Ha Dong-gun’s party was like that too. The same was true of Choi Hyung-joon’s family.

From the first meeting, a notification appeared that the trust had increased.

‘Everyone who has met in person increases their trust quickly.’

It sounded natural.

It was a very natural story that the trustworthiness of someone you know goes up faster than that of someone you don’t even know.

However, it was a slightly different case that trust increased at the same time as face to face.

Because it was so unusual.

The abnormal increase in reliability was clearly affected by the skill.

‘Is it because of the skill to maintain dignity?’

Dajeong Kim looked at me with a hazy look and asked.

“…who are you?”

“My name is Jaehyun Kim. He’s from upstairs.”

“······Yeah?”

Slowly, her eyes began to glow. When she came to her senses, she jumped out of my arms in surprise.

“Who, who are you?”

“As I just said, he’s from upstairs.”

“How did you get in here?”

“Your condition seemed serious, so I forced the door open and came in.”

“What is that…”

Da-jung Kim looked around the house with confused eyes.

And then

“ah······.”

Soon, he made an expression as if he realized something, and tears began to flow from his eyes.

“Ahh···!”

Dajeong Kim cried while covering her face with both hands.

Her slender shoulders trembled slightly.

“…”

I thought as I stared at her as she held her breath.

What should I do with consolation?

What should I say to reach the heart of a person who is crying so sadly?

I couldn’t tell.

A silent hug or sympathy for their sadness were all consolation possible only when they were close to each other.

I didn’t have any of that

So I decided to just say what I wanted to say.

“Dajeong Kim.”

When I called her name, she looked up at me with tears on her face.

said to her.

“help.”

I decided not to ask what had happened or why I was crying so sadly.

There is no need to bring back painful memories.

Rather, I thought that a way to be less sad was to turn my gaze to another place, to the present reality.

“My colleague is seriously injured.”

***

Dajeong Kim was staring blankly at the man who introduced himself as Kim Jaehyun.

‘What is this man talking about?’

The story, which started with asking for help and a colleague getting seriously injured, progressed to saying that he had a special power before he knew it.

‘What nonsense.’

that’s a superpower

It’s also a heal ability.

I felt like an idiot for being so serious in response to hearing that someone was hurt.

‘It’s Hill. How else do they know that I’m a nurse and say these things?’

Maybe this man has been watching too many cartoons.

Then I suddenly realized.

I wondered if this man who was talking so hard in front of her actually wanted to comfort herself.

She realized it instinctively because she had been tired of receiving favors from men.

‘Hmm.’

doll.

At the same time as I developed a crush, I also developed a curiosity about this man.

Naturally, she remembered the face she had seen at a glance earlier, and Da-jung Kim thought as she looked at his talking face.

‘… He was handsome.’

His clumsy ways rather knocked on the door of her heart.

“Puff.”

“Why are you laughing?”

It was amazing.

Usually, the eyes of the men who comforted her when she cried were full of selfishness, but I didn’t feel that from the man in front of me.

In any case, if the man’s purpose was to comfort himself, he had to admit that he had succeeded to some extent.

“I know. Where should I go?”

It was a word that I thought was appropriate.

By the way.

“Wait.”

[The quest has been granted.]

Quest Content: Use Heal to heal the injured Oeonju

Time limit: 1 hour 00 minutes 00 seconds

Reward: Enhanced Heal Mastery

Failure Penalty: None.

“uh?”

The man said while blankly reading the hologram window in front of him.

“You don’t have to move. Kim Da-jeong is in a very weak condition, so please rest while eating some of this. I will bring Mr. Oh Eon-ju.”

Then, out of nowhere, a tangerine appeared and landed in front of her.

“···uh?”

“Then rest.”

Kim Da-jung showed her back and grabbed the man who was about to leave.

“Now, wait a minute!”

“What are you doing?”

“What’s this?”

He looked down at the tangerine held out by Kim Da-jung and replied.

“It’s a tangerine.”

“That’s not it…!”

There are many things I want to ask, such as a hologram that suddenly appears in front of my eyes or a tangerine that has appeared out of thin air, but the words do not come out properly.

The moment you try to stand up with a stuffy mind,

“oh-!”

He tripped on his own feet and fell.

I closed my eyes and waited for the pain to come.

“…?”

It didn’t hurt.

When Da-jung Kim, who thought something was strange, slowly opened her eyes,

“!!!”

I could see myself floating in the air.

He felt something holding him up, but he couldn’t see anything.

Dajeong Kim looked at the man with her rabbit eyes.

he said in a casual tone.

“Your body is very weak right now, so please move carefully. It hurts.”

Dajeong Kim, who came down cautiously to the ground, could not keep her mouth shut.

“Wait a little.”

Dajeong Kim, who had been staring blankly at the direction the man had left for a while, thought seriously as she looked at the tangerine left in her hand.

‘Am I dreaming?’

***

[Citizen Kim Da-jung’s credibility increases.]

After calming down Da-jung Kim, I went down the elevator, and a notification appeared that the reliability had risen again.

Her reliability had already exceeded 30.

It seemed that the fact that I actually showed my ability at the end worked well.

‘I guess I didn’t believe it.’

I thought it would be like that for some reason since I suddenly laughed instead of crying sadly.

It must have been funny because it was suddenly said that it was a superpower or a heel.

‘but. It’s hard to believe until you see it with your own eyes.’

One hundred words are worth a thousand words, so it was better to show this directly.

♩♬―

[It is the first floor.]

[The door opens.]

Arriving on the first floor, I walked down the hallway to the front door on the first floor to meet Ha Dong-gun’s party.

Ha Dong-gun confirmed that the party had come all the way to the side road, so it was time to arrive soon.

‘Here he is.’

The first thing that caught my eye was Moon Byeong-ho, who was running hard with his grandmother on his back.

‘Good luck, our soldier.’

Thanks to Moon Byung-ho today, there was a mountain of things that I gained.

I was looking at him with a hearty smile when I suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

‘Why are you running so fast?’

Kang Deok-soo, Ha Dong-gun, Kim Ga-young, Yoo Hye-rin, and Kim Gun, who were running after Moon Byeong-ho, were all running with their teeth clenched.

As if being chased by something.

And his identity was soon revealed.

‘That’s…?’

Behind Ha Dong-gun’s party, a huge red tiger was closely pursuing them.
