CHAPTERS
Before he knew it, a warm tongue and lips were lapping at the nape of his neck. Struggling desperately, Yohan barely managed to break free, and Lee Hyunmook licked his lips. The look in his eyes wasn’t just hunger, it carried a deep, bottomless longing. Yohan shrank under the weight of that overwhelming emotion. “Why are you doing this? I really don’t taste good…” When Lee Hyunmook stood, staring intently at him, Yohan, already on edge, screamed. He bolted outside on instinct, and when he…- 297.5 K • Completed
- “Get on.” “…Sorry?” Yohan, his backpack strapped on tightly, blinked in confusion. Lee Hyunmook slung his own backpack around to the front and gestured. “You’re too slow. This won’t do.” “W-Will you be okay? That’s going to be way too heavy…” Yohan asked, genuinely concerned. Carrying him would mean Lee Hyunmook was shouldering the weight of a full-grown man and two fully packed backpacks. Hearing that, Lee Hyunmook let out his first audible laugh. Yohan stared at…

- Wasn’t the first subway barely enough to fill half the tunnel? But now, it looked like it filled nearly two-thirds. He couldn’t tell when it had gotten so big. Paaaang! The sound of it barreling toward them was deafening. Lee Hyunmook, who had been staring sharply at the subway, gauged the distance between the wall and the subway, then leapt. Yohan’s arms, wrapped tightly around Lee Hyunmook’s neck, tensed. Lee Hyunmook climbed using the grooves in the wall and hung from the ceiling.…

- Yohan’s face turned pale. Red Heads were one of the few types of monsters that appeared consistently all over the world, despite their many abnormal and grotesque forms. They always appeared near medical facilities, and their most distinct feature was their heads, which resembled the red sirens on ambulances. Because of this, some claimed that they were mutated forms of creatures that once lived near hospitals, warped by impressions left in their memories. WEE-OOH WEE-OOH— As the monsters watched…

- ‘Anyway… I really need to pee.’ Yohan could no longer hold it in and stood up. The moment he moved, Lee Hyunmook, who had ignored both his awakening and being called, immediately reacted and turned around. Yohan respectfully addressed the mad hero staring at him with dazed eyes. “Um, I just need to take care of something. Is it… okay if I go?” Hyunmook only stared blankly, saying nothing. Corruption often came with mental illness, but thankfully, Hyunmook’s symptoms didn’t…

- “Months, or years?” Yohan grew despondent at the vast, unfathomable length of time, but he forced himself to stay positive. If he hadn’t met Lee Hyunmook, he would’ve been shredded to death by that murderous eyeball monster. He needed to be thankful just to be alive. “Yes, Mr. Lee Hyunmook! Let’s hang in there together!” When Yohan spoke with renewed spirit, Hyunmook stared at him blankly, as if watching some alien lifeform moving in an unfamiliar way. Truthfully, even in his sane…

- The way he reacted was like someone who had forgotten his own name for a very long time. Yohan instinctively sensed something was wrong. The same question that had haunted him before he lost consciousness returned to his mind: Was this really a human being? Not just some thing pretending to be human? He groped along the ground to support himself, but before he could even spring to his feet, Lee Hyunmook grabbed him. The crushing grip around his arm felt like a hydraulic press, and Yohan screamed…

- Yohan had wanted to awaken and become independent, to finally show his family, who had always looked down on him, what he was capable of. That’s why he resolved to risk it all and enter a rift with a high awakening probability. As it happened, Park Seungmin claimed to know some people and introduced him to a mercenary team. They were what you’d call an “awakening party for hire”, a team that ran paid awakenings for others. To Yohan, the group didn’t seem problematic. They appeared fairly…

- A Lamb Cast into the Abyss “Hngh….” Yohan held his breath and swallowed a sob. And who could blame him? Just beyond the glass wall he was pressed against, a massive eyeball was peering inside. It was surreal, yet this horrifying scene was undeniably real. Tears streamed down his cheeks as he clamped a hand over his mouth to stifle any sound, his knuckles turning white. The floor beneath him was wet. Alarmed, he glanced down to check if he’d wet himself, and the little color remaining in…

- Lee Hyunmook, who had awakened in an instant and rescued Yohan from Yoon Seungryong’s grasp, casually brushed the back of Yohan’s neck where he’d been grabbed. After confirming there were no injuries, he greeted him as if nothing had happened. “How’s your body feeling?” “I-I’m okay. I think I slept really well… but, um, Mr. Yoon Seungryong is awake…” “Yeah, looks like it.” Lee Hyunmook didn’t even glance at Seungryong, who was still rolling around on the living room…
