chapter 7
···Did you come to another world?
“Accident…, huh?”
Hearing the familiar thick voice instead of a thin voice, Yooseong hurriedly groped his body here and there.
Frizzy, curly hair, a thick chin, and a slightly protruding belly.
When I slowly opened my eyes, I came into my field of vision of an infinitely familiar room littered with clutter and trash that had not been properly organized.
“Do, I’m back. I’m back!”
Tring!
[Congratulations on clearing the quest!]
[Han Yuseong’s rank will rise from ‘Introductory’ to ‘Novice Solver’]
[‘Karma Shop’ function is activated]
[‘Community’ function is activated]
“What the fuck!”
Yoosung took off his goggles in an instant and threw them into the corner of the room.
Yooseong, who had experienced the harsh reality of 999 terrible deaths and a struggle with a monster, not an adventure full of dreams and hopes or love and friendship with his good-looking colleagues, did not want to wear these damn goggles even for one more second.
‘I don’t know what those damn goggles are, but I’m not going to use them again no matter what. First of all, find the ‘mangem throw’ bastard…’
Beep!
“Ah, little! What the hell is this? Is it broken?”
Yuseong nervously took out his smartphone and unlocked it at the alarm ringing without notice, and frowned at the message that appeared on the screen.
“Emergency text message? Not an emergency text message?”
As soon as I tried to check the contents of the text closely written with a different name, the meteor solidified as it was.
thud! thud! thud!
A faintly audible heavy echo and a slight vibration felt soon after.
It was too heavy to say that it came from a nearby construction site, and as time passed, the sound was getting closer and closer.
As if possessed by something, I suddenly moved to the window and the moment I opened the curtains, an unexpected scene unfolded in front of my eyes.
a person is standing
A ubiquitous human with one head and two limbs.
However, there was a crucial difference from ordinary humans, and that was size.
’10 m? No, I think it’s 15m?’
A giant that cannot exist according to the laws of physics is walking around in reality.
When I inadvertently pinched his cheek, it was clear that the faint tingling was not a dream but a reality.
“Quaaagh!”
“Tae, give me a ride! A monster, a monster!”
“Damn it! Don’t go away! Huck? I came! I said I came!”
“… Did you come to another world, not Earth?”
A giant walking towards this direction, destroying everything, collapsing buildings and smoke rising from all over the place, people screaming for help and people running away, and people in the shape of humans chasing them. Various monsters.
Yuseong, who was staring blankly at it, hurriedly ran and picked up the goggles he had thrown in the corner.
‘The monster is coming this way. If you stay inside, you won’t be able to make a sound and you’ll die in vain. But if I go out of the house, I’ll be chased by little monsters.’
Unrealistic things must be dealt with in unrealistic ways.
Whatever his identity, he had no choice but to use the goggles again in order to survive.
[Karma Shop]
[Community-There are unchecked messages (2···5···9···14)]
I was worried about the growing number of unchecked messages in real time, but now I had no time to socialize with people whose names and faces I didn’t know.
[Welcome to the first visit to the Karma Shop!]
[At the Karma Shop, you can pay karma to bring various consumables and abilities and items from other worlds]

-Magic Control (D): 10,000
-Thorns (D): 10,000

“It’s too expensive!”
The moment I was taken aback by the price beyond my imagination, a new message appeared as if I had waited.
-You can purchase skills by paying low points instead of risking a rank down.
You can purchase the Mystic Eye of Truth (C+) by paying -500,000 Karma.
“Buy! Magic control and thorns too!”
[You have purchased the Magic Eye of Truth (C+)]
[You have purchased Magic Control (D)]
[Purchased Thorn Vine (D)]
How to feel and control intangible energy, how to materialize energy, and how to manipulate materialized energy.
Yooseong, who naturally accepted unfamiliar memories and sensations as if recalling forgotten memories, immediately frowned and shouted in a nervous voice.
“Status window!”

‘shit.’
His physical ability was at an acceptable level, but his magical power was too low.
Calculated from the experience gained while moving in Aris’ body, one mana is enough to create a thorny vine about 1m long.
‘With the ability to create at most 1m long thorny vines, there is nothing I can do in this situation…’
Yoosung’s face turned white as he looked out the window.
A fighter flying through the clouds and a giant sprinting with his head bowed with both arms wrapped around his head to avoid the pouring missiles.
At first glance, it was an exhilarating scene, but that was the position of ordinary people, and Yoosung’s position was a little different.
‘Why are you coming this way?!’
Yoosung bit his lip enough to bleed at the sight of the giant running in a straight line, precisely in this direction, as if he was aiming for it.
‘Even if I leave now, it will be too late. There’s no chance that he’ll suddenly turn somewhere else. then···.’
“I never thought I would do this again.”
After hesitating for a while, Yuseong, determined to see the giant approaching him, threw himself out of the window without hesitation.
‘It takes a few seconds to reach the ground, and the size of the vines that can be extended is at most about 1m. You only have one chance!’
It swings its vines according to the perfect timing and trajectory learned through hundreds of falls.
However, the moment Yooseong swung the vine, he realized that his challenge had failed.
‘short!’
It was exactly one inch short of reaching the target.
In a fleeting moment that felt like an eternity, my left eye began to tickle, and the world began to look different.
A world that has turned achromatic and waves of beautiful colors flowing proudly in between.
Yoosung instinctively realized that the waves were energy and that he could manipulate that energy to his will.
Whoa!
As if doing Magic Eye, the left eye was distracted and the distant wave of energy overlapped on the vine. The vine grew like crazy and wrapped itself around the railing, rapidly reducing the falling speed.
“Kuk!”
Yoosung landed on the floor and started running with all his might without a moment to rejoice.
What would happen if a giant, about the size of a small building, collided with an apartment building?
The result could be guessed by the terrifying sound and shock coming from behind, and the dust rising thickly.
Kwakwagwagwang!
All Yoosung could do was get under a nearby car and crouch down as much as possible.
As the thumping sound and ground rumble went away, Yuseong grabbed his trembling body with both arms and carefully crawled out from under the car and looked around.
“·······.”
The city center is burning with smoke coming out everywhere, and the buildings that collapsed terribly.
People screaming and running away and monsters chasing after them.
Occasionally seen policemen and soldiers shooting at them, but there were so many monsters and so many different types.
bang!
Hearing gunshots from nearby, Yooseong pressed himself to the floor and looked around.
A police officer was firing a revolver at a monster that appeared to be an orc.
‘It’s eaten.’
Every time a bullet hit, red blood surged from the orc’s body.
I was a little relieved that I wasn’t the type that the modern weapons commonly used in novels about invasions from another world couldn’t work, but that was only for a while.
“Kwiyiyiik!”
The bullet was effective, but it was too much to defeat the orc.
Covering his face with both arms, the orc rushed in and started beating the police at random with the stick he was holding.
Kwajik!
The cops screaming and tumbling across the floor, and the orcs screaming and swinging clubs as if they were playing with toys.
“Save, save, please save me!”
“·······.”
Yooseong decided to leave while Orc was distracted.
‘Right now, it’s hard to just take care of myself. What am I going to do with my ability to create vines?’
The reason why he attacked the monster was to return to his original body and the special conditions to be able to resurrect infinitely even if he died, not because of a sense of justice.
Although he sympathized with and sympathized with Aris’ situation, if he had been able to give up, he would have returned to the original world without worrying for a second.
However, Yooseong could not take a few steps and had to stop.
“Chwik! Fellow! Human!”
“Kikiiik!”
The orcs, attracted by gunshots and screams, were gathering nearby one by one.
Looking at the number of Orcs, it was impossible to escape secretly, and there was no place to hide.
‘···shit.’

…
······
·········
The distance with the orcs getting smaller and smaller.
I don’t know what will happen to my original body when I go to another world, but this was the only option I could choose in the current situation.
I wanted to get out of this situation by clicking on anything in my heart, but Yooseong, who had personally experienced the results of such a complacent thought, exercised superhuman patience and went through the list step by step.
‘The reason I was able to keep trying again and again in the world of Aris was because of the introductory privilege. But now my rank is novice fixer. There is no guarantee that you will be able to continue to challenge yourself.’
He had to find a quest that would give him enough strength to defeat the orcs and not have a high chance of dying, yet he could solve it with his current abilities.
The problem was that I couldn’t really find them.
The names and descriptions of the quests were all terrible and hopeless enough to make the time spent with the monster look cute.
‘2,000 masters of the old file room are under siege? What the hell have you done? A 20 km comet impact? can you stop that? mutant virus? That’s a problem here too!’
Took!
Hearing the sound coming from nearby, Meteor began to turn the pages at an even faster pace.
‘I was thinking wrong. There’s no such thing as a perfectly matched crisis that a single strange eye and the ability to create vines could definitely solve. What we need to find now is not simple strength, but a situation where cunning can work. then···.’
“Human! Human!”
“Damn it, if you’re going to die anyway!”
