Absolute Person in Every Corner - Absolute Person in Every Corner chapter 5

[Episode 01] Absolutes everywhere (4)

The moment our eyes met, I felt my whole body freeze.

Fear engulfed his whole body and his feet stiffened.

Encountering him up close, his gigantic size and murderous eyes were those of a typical predator.

gulp

The sound of swallowing saliva echoed loudly.

The next moment, Kellikan suddenly thrust his jaw at me.

Kwajik!

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

It wasn’t until an invisible wall blocked his teeth that I realized he was about to run over me.

“Huh!”

The one who was blocked from entering by the transparent wall slipped down as it was, but soon flapped his wings and came up again.

And in that state, he clung to the wall and thrust his teeth at me.

Hard!

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

······

······

As I was watching live the inside of his teeth and mouth right in front of me, I suddenly felt uneasy.

‘Couldn’t it be breaking through?’

Anxiety that his ferocious teeth would break through the invisible wall and reach my neck.

When I imagined that far, my mind flashed.

‘I have to do something!’

Something had to be done before the worst hit.

I ran straight to the kitchen and stood in front of Kelican with a cleaver in hand.

He was concentrating on chewing on the invisible wall without giving me a single glance whether I moved or not.

While estimating the length of the sword and the distance from him, I came to a conclusion.

‘The sword is too short.’

The blade of an ordinary kitchen knife was only about 20 cm long.

Considering that my body was blocked by the transparent wall, the sword could only reach about a span.

Of course, in order to hit him, he had to target a place that was close to the transparent wall, but that was the only place where he gnawed at the transparent wall.

A hard-looking beak and teeth growing in it.

It seemed that sticking a kitchen knife into it wouldn’t have much of an effect.

‘I have to make it like a spear to put it in the neck.’

I just had all the right ingredients.

I fixed a kitchen knife to the tip of a rolling pin I bought at Daiso and wrapped it around with tape.

Then, a plausible weapon was completed.

After confirming that the kitchen knife was properly fixed, I smiled contemptuously.

‘This is enough.’

Hard!

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

The guy was still immersed in the transparent wall without knowing anything.

‘now!’

Fu-wook!

The spear, which I fired with all my might, penetrated halfway into the nape of the man’s neck.

-Keeek!!

Terrified, he pulled his body back, and the recoil sent the spear out, widening his wound even more.

Pooh!

The blood that spurted out of the guy’s body was blocked by the transparent wall and flowed down, but the amount was quite large.

‘done!’

however.

-Kieek-!!

He was still moving, though blood was dripping from his neck.

thud! thud!

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

The sight of him venting his anger by smashing his head into a transparent wall was a wounded beast itself.

The way he ran into it fiercely seemed to reveal his resolute will to kill me, even if it meant dying himself.

“Ha, one more time!”

I cleared my mind and stretched out the window once more.

however.

Whiik!

“Oh!”

This time he was watching my movements, and the moment he stabbed the spear, he rather grabbed the spear rod with his beak and pulled it.

Quick!

The plastic spearhead I bought at Daiso was smashed in Kelican’s beak, and as a result, I lost the cleaver attached to the front part.

“I’m leaving at this rate…”

-Keee

There is another small fruit knife, but it is not as sharp as the cleaver.

It probably does little damage.

‘Besides, I don’t think my attacks will work as long as he’s watching me.’

The only hopeful thing was that blood was gushing out of his neck even at the moment he was fucking emitting light.

It would take time, but it seemed like he would die of excessive bleeding if left as it was.

[Unauthorized target attempts to enter.]

The transparent wall was completely blocking the guy’s intrusion, so it wasn’t that scary anymore.

It’s enough just to wait patiently.

As time passed, and as his blood smeared on the transparent wall, he was definitely getting tired.

Eventually, it stopped moving altogether and stopped attacking the transparent wall, just staring at me silently.

He seemed troubled by something.

As I was staring into his eyes, I came up with a not-so-good hypothesis.

‘Wait a minute.’

The guy seemed to realize that it was impossible to penetrate the transparent wall.

So what if he just gives up?

What would happen if he flew away into the sky before dying from excessive blood loss?

‘The loot settlement is triggered only when a corpse is nearby.’

The reason I made this hypothesis was simple.

In the meantime, while hunting goblins, it wasn’t unconditionally successful.

Some of them were hit by dumbbells on their bodies or other places, and some of them were clearly on the verge of death.

‘But the group he was with took him, and he didn’t get the spoils settled.’

must have died

There’s no way that guy who was hit with a dumbbell in his chest instead of his head would still be alive.

‘If that’s the case, if this guy gets farther than a certain distance, he’s saying that the loot won’t be settled.’

It couldn’t be.

How much money do you mean you let it go like this?

All prey caught.

‘Is there no way to finish it?’

I hurriedly looked around the house.

And cooking oil came into my eyes.

‘yes!’

If that’s the case, maybe we can finish him off.

“Shop open! Buy 10 sets of canola oil!”

[Do you really want to buy?]

[Yes No]

“Yes!”

Gee-

In an instant, twenty tins of cooking oil containing 900ml of canola oil appeared side by side on the living room floor.

“Warehouse open! Remove the plastic bottle and add cooking oil!”

Gee-

Having stored all the cooking oil in the warehouse, I continued to move diligently.

I wrapped a kitchen towel around the end of the spear he broke and fixed it with tape.

Then I ran to the kitchen and turned on the gas.

“Summon cooking oil!”

Then he put a large pot and poured all the cooking oil into it.

Tadadadak- Fire!

My heart was burning until the cooking oil was sufficiently heated.

Got the card! Get a card!

‘Is this enough?’

The waiting time was very long.

“keep!”

As soon as it heats up, the heated cooking oil is stored in the warehouse, and a kitchen towel is soaked in the cooking oil and then set on fire.

Roaring!

The gas fire went straight to the end of the window sill, and I ran to the living room window with it.

He was still watching me closely.

It seemed to be particularly wary of a window that was on fire.

I glared at the top of that guy’s head and said.

“Summon cooking oil!”

right after that.

Gee-

The 18L of boiling cooking oil summoned above Kelican’s head soaked his body.

-Kieek?!

The moment the guy’s gaze turned to the sky, embarrassed by the sudden attack of cooking oil.

“Search!”

I stabbed the burning part of the tip of the broken spear into his body.

-Keeek!

Perhaps surprised by the surprise, he fell off the wall of the apartment and flapped his wings.

He was leaving, but I was able to smile.

‘done.’

Cooking oil has a high flash point, so it is difficult to catch fire.

However, it only has a high flash point, but because it is oil, it burns very well once it is ignited.

That’s why I sometimes cause kitchen fires.

A flaming spear was stuck in Kelican’s torso.

Small flames began to slowly but surely ignite the cooking oil that soaked his body.

Hwareuk-

The flames, which at first spread slowly, soon engulfed the Kelican whole.

Roaring!

As the flames grew stronger, I could see the panicked Kelican scurrying around.

I hurriedly flapped my wings to put out the fire, but that action only made the fire bigger.

-Keeek-!

With a scream, he crashed down the promenade of the apartment building.

Kwajik! Wow!

The massive body crashed and completely smashed a tree along the promenade.

Perhaps the tree acted as a cushion, but it was still alive and moving.

-Pretty dear!

I tried to roll around trying to put out the fire on my body, but the flames did not go out, only moving the fire around me.

Roaring!

The boy’s struggle didn’t last very long.

[You hunted Kelican (Lv. 27).]

[Acquire a large amount of experience.]

[Skill level has increased.]

[Skill level has increased.]

[You have learned a new skill.]

A system alert alerted me that Kelican had stopped breathing.

[Loots that meet the conditions are nearby.]

[Settlement of loot begins.]

At the same time as the settlement began, the corpse of Kelican, which was burning below, began to disappear gradually.

Unlike the last case, when some remained, this time the notification appeared only after it had completely disappeared.

[Loot settlement has been completed.]

[9,347,487 won has been deposited into the wallet of the absolute.]

When I saw the amount, I couldn’t help but be amazed.

“Gu, gu, nine million won?!”

I expected that the settlement amount would be high because the level was high and this time I hunted with my own strength.

But I didn’t think it would be this many.

‘It’s almost 10 million won, right?’

In fact, if you add up the remaining money, you have more than 10 million won.

I was very satisfied that this was the money I earned myself.

“hahahaha.”

But that wasn’t the end of Kelican’s gift.

[Home corner area expansion begins.]

“Well?”

ugh

I felt that something was changing with the message I was seeing for the first time.

‘What’s going on?’

It feels like the whole house is lightly shaken.

the moment it reached its climax.

“!!!”

The field of view suddenly expanded.

Ugh!

At first, I saw myself sitting down in the living room.

‘Is this… me?’

After that, the field of view began to expand rapidly. I could see the entire living room, the kitchen, and even the rooms and bathrooms inside.

No, it was felt rather than seen.

The overall shape of the house and the electricity flowing in real time. Even the arrangement of the furniture and the small dust on the floor.

It was all felt.

I feel as if I have become the house itself.

Whoops!

‘Ugh!’

At that moment, I felt an excruciating pain all over my body.

My whole body swelled up and looked like it was about to burst.

And.

‘This, this!’

The body was actually expanding.

No, to be precise, the area where I felt was increasing, not my body.

Beyond the front door to the hallway, beyond the hallway to wrap around the elevator, and even to the next door.

Soon, the situation in the next door began to become clear.

‘Person?’

There were people next door.

A young couple who appear to be in their late 30s and two children.

‘Who are these people?’

It was a face that no one else knew, but my husband knew.

It was because he was someone I would sometimes run into when going to the convenience store or taking out the trash.

‘People next door?’

Their conversations could be heard as vividly as if they were being heard right next to them.

“Honey, what should I do? I can smell something burning. Is something wrong?”

“it’s okay. This is the 30th floor. Tolerable monsters will never come up.”

“I heard a thump from earlier. Are you really okay?”

“Dad. I’m scared.”

“Seo Yeon-ah, shh!”

“Huh.”

I guessed why they were trembling with fear.

It must have been the noise the Kelican made.

It was then.

“Huh!”

The moment I felt that the territory of every corner of the house had expanded to the entire 30th floor, I was able to regain control of my body.

‘That was just…’

As I was trying to organize my thoughts, a new notification window appeared in front of me.

[An object that satisfies the conditions to be accepted as a citizen has been found.]

[Do you want to grant citizenship?]
