◈ 194. Disaster Weakening (4)

Even in the lost world, people exist.

Even though he may have been a being from the past who had already died long ago, he could still be brought back to reality from the lost world.

On the beautiful meadow, a person who looked like a homeless person or a disaster victim was staring intently.

Then he asked an unexpected question.

“Where is this? Is it heaven? Or….”

Although he didn’t continue the conversation, I had a feeling he was asking if it was hell.

Of course it wasn’t hell.

It was just a lost world, forgotten.

“I’m…looking for my family.”

“Yes? Family?”

“Yes. Everything is gone. But my family’s bodies are gone, so I guess they’ve gone somewhere. Can you help me? Can we go into that cave?”

“No! Not that place.”

Jincheol hurriedly denied the mysterious man who pointed to the cave leading to the Eternal Ice Wall.

Suddenly something strange occurred to me.

They were different from the people I had met in the Lost World so far.

“Where are you from?”

“I come from Mytchina. Where is this place?”

“Are you crazy?”

I tilted my head wondering where Michina was, and then the man asked me as if he recognized the Korean written on my body.

“Are you Korean by any chance?”

“Yes? Do you know Korea?”

“I worked in Korea. In Suwon.”

Jincheol was embarrassed when he heard that he had worked in Suwon.

“What country are you from?”

“I… I’m sorry.”

“Sorry?”

Jincheol immediately searched for Myitkyina, Myanmar on his smartphone.

Then, we were able to search for cities that had disappeared due to disaster.

‘The Lost World. Did the modern city disappear and move here?’

The man seemed unaware that he was dead.

No, it seemed like he knew, but he didn’t seem to know exactly what his situation was or what kind of world he was in right now.

“Please, I beg you. I’ve heard that Koreans are kindhearted. Please help me find my family.”

A man named Kayan, who had been asked to find his family, collapsed as if he was very tired.

Although he would have been provided with food and lodging in various places if he had been a green rank, he was not a normal traveler like Jincheol.

The vast grasslands were quite comfortable in terms of temperature, but without food or water, they would have been no different from a warm desert.

Jincheol gave water to Kayan, who was exhausted, and gave him food.

Jincheol was bewildered by the fact that the people living in the present had come to a lost world, and that cities and villages that had disappeared due to disasters and calamities might exist somewhere in this world.

It was already quite late, but Jincheol couldn’t go back right away and decided to wait until Kayan woke up.

Jincheol asked Kayan, who had thankfully regained his energy, where he came from.

The aim was to find out whether it had fallen into the middle of a meadow or whether it had come with the world that had been buried.

“I came from behind the hill over there. But where is this place? There’s no place like this where I live.”

It was a grassland that existed on Earth but no longer exists, so it was natural that Kayan would not know about it.

Moreover, there were naturally no grasslands like this near the city where Kayan lived.

But maybe, in the distant past, this grassland was next to the city where Kayan lived.

“Let’s go over there.”

“Yes, please.”

“But how long did you walk?”

“I don’t know. I just kept walking. A lot.”

If I had a car, I would have gotten there quickly, but since I had to walk, it seemed like it would take a considerable amount of time.

At home, there was a wife and son waiting for Jincheol.

‘I think it would be better to bring the car,’

Jincheol looked around and spoke to Kayan.

“I guess I’ll have to bring the car.”

“Tea? Where can I get tea?”

“Please follow me for now and don’t be surprised. Okay?”

“Yes, I understand.”

After calming down Kayan, I tried to take him back to reality.

Jincheol decided to go back like that, but when he returned home, he found out that Kayan was not by his side.

“honey!”

Jincheol’s wife looked very surprised at his beggar-like appearance.

It was Jincheol who hadn’t come back for over a week.

She had not been able to sleep for several days, worried that something might have gone wrong.

When Jincheol returned, I let out a sigh of relief, but his appearance was so miserable that I even felt resentment.

She knew that her husband was struggling to save the world, but she felt sorry for him carrying such a heavy burden alone.

I thought that maybe I didn’t have to handle it alone, but I couldn’t stop my husband.

The burden was so heavy, but she had the strength to carry it, and she knew that someone had to do it.

Jincheol returned safely, but soon became flustered, wondering if he had missed something.

“Kayan?”

Jincheol looked around, embarrassed that Kayan, who was clearly supposed to come with him, was not there.

“honey.”

“Damn it! I have to go back. Honey. Car keys!”

“No. You’re going back? You just got here!”

“I have to go. There’s someone waiting for me.”

“yes?”

“It won’t take that long. One day. I’ll be back in two days at the most. Sorry.”

Jincheol got into his car and headed straight to the grassland, which was a green grade with cash up.

“Damn, is it impossible to bring the dead from this era back to reality?”

There seemed to be some unknown condition that made it impossible to bring Kayan out while bringing the others out.

Even though his body felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, Jincheol returned straight to the meadow.

Jincheol arrived at the place where he had been with Kayan just a moment ago, but Kayan was nowhere to be seen.

It really wasn’t even a few minutes.

“Kayan! Kayan!”

Jincheol called Kayan’s name at the top of his lungs.

I honked the car horn as hard as I could to look for Kayan, but he was nowhere to be seen.

I ran inside to see if I had gone into the cave leading to the Eternal Ice Wall, but Kayan was nowhere to be seen.

Jincheol drove around the area in his car but couldn’t find it, so he drove to the place Kayan had mentioned.

He said he walked over the hill.

He said he didn’t know how many days it would take, but it would be a distance that could easily be reached by car in a few hours.

After running for a while, we arrived at the other side of the hill and saw the horribly destroyed city.

“oh my god.”

It was the horrific scene that Jincheol had personally seen when he went to Southeast Asia.

It was a destroyed city buried in mud.

Some places have recovered considerably, but there are still many places that have not been recovered.

There are dozens, even hundreds, of cities and towns that the government has given up on rebuilding and people have abandoned them.

It was unclear whether all of those abandoned cities and towns were part of a lost world, but it seemed clear that Kayan’s city had become one of the collection of lost worlds.

Jincheol drove his car to the city, wondering if Kayan might be somewhere around here.

I was able to see a notice from CashUp saying that I had entered the yellow level.

And although Jincheol didn’t find Kayan, he found survivors in the ruined city.

It was clear that they were already dead.

Moreover, I knew that I could not bring him back to reality through Kayan.

But I couldn’t turn away from those sitting in the ruins with a bewildered look on their faces.

Jincheol moved those in immediate need to the grasslands outside the city and provided them with clean water and food.

Of course, it wasn’t enough because the amount I had was ridiculously small.

Fortunately, with the help of a few people who had come to their senses, they began to rescue people.

“What about the government? When will the rescue team come?”

Everyone was desperately waiting for the rescue team to arrive, but Jincheol let out a deep sigh because he knew the rescue team would not come.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of survivors lay at the edge of a beautiful meadow, groaning from hunger, exhaustion, and injury.

“Please wait here for a moment.”

Jincheol remembered that there was food piled up all over the green-level travel destinations, so he diligently moved the food to his car.

These were foods that were not given to refugees.

In the end, Jincheol had to transport the food himself.

But this too had limitations.

He gave them his car and then returned home.

Even Jincheol, who was as iron-willed as he was, was helpless in the face of repeated fatigue and injuries.

“honey!”

It was Jincheol who collapsed and fell into a deep sleep.

Fortunately, thanks to the treatment and fatigue recovery effects provided at Jincheol’s house, I was able to recover to some extent after spending the whole day there.

“What the hell is going on?”

“Representative.”

Even Jae-woo and Shinbi came to see Jin-cheol’s wife.

Jincheol told everyone gathered the whole story.

Of course, at first, they didn’t believe it, but since it was something that would be confirmed once they opened the door and went in anyway, they decided to come up with countermeasures rather than trying to understand this absurd incident.

Eventually, we headed out to the plains in a truck full of food and water.

Because we didn’t know how many people there were, we needed a significant amount of supplies.

Realistically, it was a number that could not be brought to Korea.

“So when the world is destroyed, will we be moved here too?”

“It doesn’t seem like all of them.”

“Then am I lucky or unlucky?”

I couldn’t tell if I was alive or dead, but being alive in such a disaster might actually be a disaster.

There were more than a few people wandering through the ruins and meadows in search of their loved ones.

Even the desperately awaited rescue team from the government could not arrive.

The survivors were ultimately left to fend for themselves in this unknown world.

The grassland was a safer place than other areas.

Of course, those who lost their will to live also lost their will to live due to the shock.

Only those who remained formed small communities and began to live in a lost world.

Jincheol provided them with crop seeds, daily necessities, and tools to support their survival.

It was not possible to provide them with food and supplies indefinitely.

In particular, I had to move quickly in reality to lift Ruby’s curse.

Jincheol, who learned that the lost world could contain the extinct world of reality, must have become anxious because it seemed like this might be a sign that the world was destined to be destroyed.

“Is it easier if you give up?”

But I could never give up, seeing my son playing with the now elderly hero in the yard.

The chaos on the Korean Peninsula gradually subsided, and the world became accustomed to the continued disasters and catastrophes.

They may have been like frogs in boiling water, but they were people who went about their daily lives calmly until their breath completely stopped.

Since worrying wouldn’t change anything anyway, I didn’t know if I would be happy just spending today.

So the marathon was held again.
