I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 44

44 – Omen

Are these real Necromancer traits, not a fake like the Corpse Collector trait of the woman who was briefly at the shelter a few days ago? Real?

If you even look at the mention of ‘demon beasts’, it seems like they can operate at a unit level or higher, as I imagined.

Dog: That’s a cool trait. It must be a unique trait, right?

Lingling: That’s right! Originally, my trait was triple, but as I regressed, it changed to this rare trait. That’s why I’m going through this hard time.

I see… He is the only necromancer in the world…

It’s crazy, really?

Ringling: Is that the only thing you’re curious about? Let me ask you something else.

What on earth are you asking me? He said… I’m just jealous of you…

Still, I guess I should respond well to the fact that he responds to such sensitive questions without any hesitation. They don’t even ask about my characteristics.

Dog: Are you a girl?

Lingling: Yes!!! I’m a girl!!! A very beautiful, cute and s*xy girl!!! Is the doggo a girl or a boy? I think it would look really cute! Wow~! ＞_＜

······ I’m sorry. Because it’s the complete opposite.

Dog: It’s a man.

Lingling: Gaaa! I love it!

What is good…

Why does he like me so much?

Dog: Are you alone in the shelter? No family or friends?

I guess I should ask this for the future, just in case.

Ringling: I’m alone ㅜ It would have been nice if someone was there, but I was the only one who lived separately because of school!

I see…

I like that there is no luggage.

Dog: Yes. I have a meeting, so let’s call again next time.

Lingling: Huh?! hehehehe~ Just play with me~ If I go outside, I’ll suffer again~

Wow, it’s starting to get muddy! Still, it’s not a bad feeling, there’s someone who likes me one-sidedly.

Dog: Sorry. Next time, I’ll contact you first.

Ringling: ㅠㅠ

Tuk-

I threw my smartphone aside and thought about Ringling’s characteristics for a moment.

“I want it…”

If there is a right to copy characteristics, I could ask Linglin…

Booby Jeok-

“Why are your eyeballs so itchy?”

I scratched my eyes and fell into thought again.

I don’t know if LingLin will allow it… But if it does, it will be a huge help in clearing this damn game.

“Is it luck in the end?”

Hmm… As the points accumulate, your strength is increasing tremendously, so there’s no need to rush right now.

If you wait, it will pop up someday. Let’s not fret.

Tsk… Seeing that b*tch continue to encourage us to increase the shelter population, I am convinced that my choice to become independent was right!

There was still a lot of time left until the afternoon battle, so I sat back on the sofa savoring mixed coffee.

“I’d like to get support again somehow, but hmmm…”

The turtle scorpion monster only attacks shelters, so I don’t think it will be a very satisfying battle…

I don’t know if I can get sponsorship just by unilaterally defeating them.

Or will it go inside the body and explode from the inside like last time?

I was thinking about such things, but Eunhye Ahn spoke to me for the first time in a long time.

“Hey, shelter director… I’ve selected a few people. Would you like to take a look?”

“Oh yes.”

I wrote down on paper the data of several people who had posted job postings, um…

“It’s not bad, but I don’t think it’s good enough to bring you in. Still, thank you for your hard work.”

She didn’t have anyone in particular that she was attracted to.

“Ah…Yes! Let’s take a closer look!”

Well… You don’t have to work that hard. Should I think about it if Eun-cheol is at the level? People who aren’t even rare have no Charlie in my eyes.

Pat Lengson Lightning Reinforced Knuckles were purchased and placed on her left hand.

An unusual design with a brown leather lining and a square stud.

I walked to the wall and gave a light jab to the shelter.

Bang! Pjijijik-! Pajik-!

“Wow… The lightning is pretty strong?”

The moment the blow was struck, several streaks of lightning spread out in all directions, and it looked quite powerful.

“I really like it. I think I can show a decent performance in the afternoon battle.”

“Um… Shelter director? Is it okay if I give you a caterpillar?”

While I was fascinated by Knuckles for a moment, Ha-eun’s mother and Ha-eun came up behind me and were staring at me.

“Oh yes, wow… The size is getting faster.”

The one whose color hasn’t changed is now the size of Ha-eun’s torso, so it feels like just holding him would fill my arms.

“hehehe!”

hehehehe, it’s cute, yes.

“Ha-eun’s characteristics have also risen to advanced level. I think she will probably reach advanced level around stage 20.”

“Wow… I see.”

Then she can go up to rare level before stage 25. I’m looking forward to it.

I was especially curious about the abilities of the child who changed color.

Cheoppadeok-

“Hwiyu – Lara has become such a pig”

As if he had heard Ha-eun’s words, the guy glared at her for a moment and then started crawling towards me again.

She was looking out the window while holding two caterpillars in her arms and casting Dunga Dunga. Hong Seol came up next to her and looked at me with curious eyes and said.

“······ Is that so good? You look very happy.”

“Yes, it’s cute. It feels nice to the touch.”

After hearing what I said, Hong Seol shook her head and walked back to her room. Aksh*ta, Suzy, and even Kim Hyun-ah came and watched her before leaving.

I’ve been on the rooftop these days, and it’s been a while since I’ve seen him again, so it’s surprising.

“Can I touch it, mister?”

“Um… I don’t think it will work… Would you like to try?”

“Where…”

Eunchae approached and cautiously stretched out her hand, but the pink caterpillar Lulu hit her hand hard.

Slap!

“Ouch, I guess I can’t do it.”

“Well, I guess so…”

For some reason, seeing that image makes me feel good.

Slap-Slap-

“Ahh! Why am I hitting you again!”

We’ll see later when he grows up…

“Phew, it’s cute…”

“Huh? Right? Just look at it. It’s healing in its own way.”

“Hmm…”

When it started to feel a little burdensome that everyone in the shelter was staring at me, it was lunch time and we all ate together.

Today’s lunch is beef soup and egg rolls!

Clatter-

“It’s very peaceful because the host doesn’t intervene. It feels exactly like the first time.”

Hong Seol continues speaking in a calm voice.

“It was like this in the first round. We got through stage 24 without any major problems. Then, suddenly, a ridiculous guy came out and everyone was swept away.”

I see… Is Hong Seol now alerting us?

People who were listening also nodded quietly and seemed lost in thought.

“We can clear it because the captain is there! I’m there too!”

– Euncheol is in middle school now, right?

– Go to middle school!

– Then it’s worth it.

-···What is it?

People smile as they watch the conversation between Kahi and Euncheol. It’s like they’re close siblings.

After the meal, we each spent some time resting and reorganizing, and a few hours later, the start of stage 18 was imminent.

“Whoa…”

Euncheol’s nervous sigh irritates my ears.

“Don’t worry, you just have to be careful of the executioners and winged monsters when you return.”

“Yes, Captain! I’m not nervous!”

Hmm really?

.

.

When Su-ji and Eun-cheol go through the dark passage and open the door, they see the shell of a huge turtle. Of course, there are monsters covering everything in pitch black.

We all jumped together towards the back of the turtle monster’s neck, where there were relatively few monsters, holding Euncheol, who had already started playing in front of the door.

As soon as the performance started, the low-level demon beasts began to stumble, and soon even the spider demon beasts and shield soldiers began shaking and their movements became stiff.

– Shhhhh!

As if it had not yet affected the turtle monster, it fired the shell into the shelter and was preparing for the next attack.

-Krrr?

-Kyaaa!

The demonic beasts, whose eyes were focused on us for a moment, suddenly turned to the surrounding monsters and began fighting, ruthlessly tearing each other’s bodies apart.

‘No matter when I look at it, its performance is clear.’

Then, the turtle monster’s swollen body slowly slowed down, and suddenly turned its head around and glared at us as if it were going to kill us.

“That’s it! I got through to the boss monster too! Suzy, come back quickly with Euncheol!”

“Yay!! Kyahahahahaha I thought it would work too!”

I wrapped my arms around the waist of the excited Eun-cheol and Su-ji and lightly threw them one by one to a place where there were no monsters.

Euncheol tried to land gracefully, but he rolled forward several times and screamed, and then began to run away to the shelter in a panic.

Don’t be so rude..

“Well, anyway, there’s no message of resistance like Aksh*ta’s time.”

Is it the dignity of unique characteristics?

After thinking about it, he slowly turned his arm, grabbed the crack between the turtle’s body, and ripped off the thick, hard shell.

– Booooo!

The guy was struggling in pain, but his movements were so slow that he wasn’t much of a threat.

Then he hit the area where the bare skin was exposed with his fist, bursting it open, and violently ripped off the chunks of flesh.

Once the floor was fairly level, I struck down my fist filled with magical power with all my might, creating a huge hole.

– Pow!

– It’s so hard!

The lightning around me was charred by the lightning that was generated every time I struck, and the demons around me fell to the ground, and the flames slowly spread around my body.

I entered straight into the body and started moving forward, repeatedly punching the turtle monster in the direction of its head.

“aaah! Die, you boring monster!!”

– Puhak-! Puk puk puk puk! Pow-!

– Pjijijijik-! Psijik!

The flames spread and burned, the body shook violently every time a fist was thrown, and dozens of lines of lightning violently spread in all directions and pierced the inner flesh.

For a few minutes, she poured out all the magical energy in her body, looked forward in a trance, and pushed forward with her fists.

– Pooh-ooh!

The front became empty and a shelter far away came into view.

Chulkukkukkuk-

When I went out and looked back after passing through a puddle of blood that was up to my ankles, I saw a huge burning monster with a huge hole from its face to its body, and around it were small pieces of food that burned together and turned into ashes.

– Kklikkklikkklikkkklikkkklikkkkklikkkkkkkkkrikkkkkkkklik- Puh-ok-!

“···What is this?”

With the curved circular blade, she struck down the head of the executioner who was stabbing her in the side, bursting it open, and slowly walked towards the shelter.

Stumbling-

“Oh my, I’ve consumed too much magical power… My eyes are blurry…”

At first glance, something like a red stick appeared on the monsters’ faces and then disappeared again and again.

Bibijeok-

“Hmm – I guess I should just get some rest today. I’m going to get sick trying to get some support.”

After confirming that my magic power had dropped to 0, I took some time to reflect and moved on, only dealing with the occasional attackers.

Fit! Piss!

Kkehehehehe!

“Are you okay? I don’t think it’s too much to stumble?”

Hongseol, who had already come to provide backup, asked worriedly.

“Ah… It’s okay. My magic power has become 0 hahahaha. I guess I got too excited…”

“······ Can your magic power become 0? Won’t you faint before that?”

“Is that so… I don’t know hahahaha…”

I don’t even have the strength to respond. He waved his hand to sign that he was okay and started walking again.
