I Became a Mental Health Care Patient in the Apocalyptic Era - I Became a Mental Health Care Patient in the Apocalyptic Era chapter 31

Episode 31-Crazy World

When the eating problem was solved, a big change took place that could be described as a change in life.

Since I wasn’t hungry, I never ran out of energy, and I could see that my physical strength, which hadn’t increased no matter how hard I tried, was slowly increasing.

Even if I didn’t have energy, it wasn’t as painful as dying, and even if I couldn’t eat and my stamina didn’t increase, I’m not a person for whom stamina is important. It is true that I was able to spend the day.

In addition to that, one of the advantages was that I could easily eat a lot of expensive food that I hadn’t been able to get my hands on even before possessing it because the three women who feed me already have a considerable crush on me.

Expensive food like steak was not something that could be ordered carelessly even if you had money.

It’s edible, but I think it’s too wasteful to spend this much money on what to eat?

If you have the money to buy a steak and roll it usefully, you will be able to roll enough to eat dozens of steaks, and your hands will never move.

But well… It’s not my money anyway, so you can easily eat here.

“It’s relaxing…”

The moment Yang Ga-hyun finished his words in a small voice, I felt it.

Something will happen.

It was so obvious that it could be said that it was almost official that something suddenly happened while peaceful things continued.

In particular, saying that Yang Ga-hyun is free wasn’t common enough to be planted as a precursor to an incident in game companies.

‘Even if he doesn’t talk, I can tell.’

Almost a week has passed since the nightmare came to the dormitory.

In the meantime, there was an incident where my face was revealed and Yoo Hyun-ah was suspended from school, but that was my personal incident and none of the main incidents happened.

To be precise, it is correct to say that the main incident is being prepared.

“Gahyeon-ah, can I ask you a favor?”

“Please? Sure?”

Gahyeon looked at me as if she had been waiting for me to say that, raising her tension.

“What do you want me to do? I can listen to pretty much anything, so just tell me.”

She was more excited than I was when I asked for a favor, so I could see Lee Seo-yeon, who was next to me, turning her ears away for no reason.

“I’ll pay you back later, so buy me one piece of equipment.”

“Equipment?”

She scanned my body.

“Do I need equipment at the cadet level?”

Gahyeon was right.

In fact, at the level of a cadet, you don’t need to buy any equipment.

Quite a few things can be rented through the academy, and I didn’t really go out and catch other monsters.

“Aren’t you going to buy it?”

As a kind of experiment, I tilted my head slightly as I spoke, and Gahyeon’s expression instantly relaxed completely.

Until just now, the kid who had the expression that he thought it would be better to reduce useless spending as much as possible, but now that he is making an expression that he will buy everything no matter what I tell him, the temperature difference is very large.

“I’ll buy you!”

‘Okay, I got a ticket for now.’

Although he told me to buy the equipment, the important thing was not the equipment itself.

********

“… You buy equipment from a place like this?”

“Uh.”

After answering briefly, I led the way, and Gahyeon stuck behind my back with an awkward expression.

In terms of size, I was afraid of a kid much bigger than me and stuck behind me.

“Do you want to live here?”

There was a reason Gahyeon was looking at me with an awkward expression.

She probably thought that when I said to buy the equipment, what she thought was to go to a regular equipment store and buy the proper equipment.

But the equipment I needed was not such a proper equipment.

If you buy it once, you will definitely have something to use it someday, but I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on equipment that I couldn’t use right away.

The place I came to was like a black market that you can see if you get out of the city.

Since it was my first visit, I did not forget to wear sunglasses.

First of all, the in-game description says it’s a black market, but from my point of view, it was more called a night market than a black market.

This is because it is difficult to see it as a place that sells particularly illegal goods, and it does not sell great goods that fit the tricky name of a black market.

‘However, since it is an area on the outskirts of the city, it is also the location most affected by monsters.’

In fact, the reason I came here today was not to buy anything, but to leave a record of hearing about the monsters.

“If you look around, you will find something to buy.”

Gahyeon looked at me with a complicated expression.

Academy cadets always have full time for training.

After spending such valuable time and walking for 2 hours, I couldn’t find a single decent item, so he probably felt sorry for me even if I couldn’t put it into words.

4 Hours round trip was enough time to fix my ambiguous posture.

“Hey, Mr. Park came back safely.”

As I was walking around the night market with Gahyeon, who had a complicated expression on her face, I heard the sound I needed.

As I approached it without delay, I saw a man with a grim face putting a huge monster on the ground.

“These days, the monsters aren’t as sensitive. Something’s about to happen…”

The man must have felt us approaching, so he only turned his head slightly to check where we were.

“What are the kids up to here?”

“I was just looking around to see if there was something useful, and I heard an interesting story.”

“Hmph, I have nothing to say to the little ones who don’t even have blood on their heads.”

I took out the money I had received from Gahyeon from my pocket.

“You really don’t?”

When I waved the money in front of his eyes and asked, he ate and laughed and took the money from my hand.

“Yes, what did the rich lady and the attendant come all the way to this place out of curiosity?”

“I’m not a servant!”

Gahyeon, who was behind me for no reason, said with a gasp.

“That’s not important right now. Since you received the money, I’d like you to pay for it.”

“First of all, what is your true identity?”

“You paid without knowing who I was? What a foolish young lady.”

From nob le mtl dot com

Gahyeon’s face could be seen reddening, probably because the word “Lady” Contained the tone of scratching Gahyeon.

“It’s just a monster hunter. Catching monsters is something anyone can do, even if it’s not a professionally trained Awakener, so they’re one of the important people who catch monsters and process or sell their by-products to keep the economy running on the outskirts. “

At my words, I saw the man’s shoulders go up for no reason.

“Seeing as you don’t know anything about the outskirts, you’re a real lady, aren’t you?”

“Don’t keep walking around, lady!”

“Anyway, tell me the situation outside these days.”

“Many monsters have descended.”

The man’s face suddenly became serious.

Until now, it was very awkward, but when the important story started, emotions mixed with sighs came into my eyes.

“It’s not like they’ve come close enough to directly threaten humans, and it happens often, but this time it feels different. Monsters that should have been inside the city are flocking to the outskirts of the city. As the ecosystem breaks down…”

“Wave…”

From nob le mtl dot com

Gahyeon said with a stiff expression.

“What? A wave?”

The man’s expression quickly deteriorated.

A man who does not know the details of the monsters’ movement may not know that the phenomenon that is happening now is a precursor to a wave of monsters rushing in at once, but as the awakened people of the academy, we knew about the monsters well.

“I’m just saying that it’s possible. Don’t take it too seriously.”

Contrary to what I said, Gahyeon’s expression was rotting in real time.

‘Is this enough to keep you alert?’

This world was going crazy.

The upper echelons, who monopolize wealth despite having few resources available, are unwilling to release their own wealth.

They decided that it would be more efficient to spend money on their own rather than handing it out to people who had no power, and they were trying to solve everything within the city.

That’s why I didn’t know the information that could be known by just looking around the outskirts.

I wonder what city doesn’t investigate even this basic information, but this is the reality.

In a dying world, humans move in the direction they think is most efficient, but that’s not always the right way.
