My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 263: Try It

Chapter 263: Try It

[Do you still not understand? This won't do. Do you still feel like this is a game?]

[Haha, according to the data, the people of this country are very good at games. So, why don't I try raising the difficulty?]

Beeep. A huge timer appeared in the air. At the same time, it started decreasing rapidly.

[The remaining time has been decreased by 10 minutes.]

[There are 10 minutes remaining.]

[If the first killing doesn't occur within the next five minutes, all lives in that carriage will be wiped out.]

'Bingo, I get 100 points,' Haru thought with an unamused look.

"W-what?"

"H-hey,"

The people started to panic as chaos spread, they could feel the cold scythe at their necks. If they don't do anything now then they will be the ones who die.

Hyung-sung wasn't able to keep the scared people in check and that is when it happened.

A scene from the 3907 train car could be seen through the aisle window. The complexion of the killer in that carriage was seen.

"We have to keep them out! Don't let anyone in!"

People held tightly to the iron door, but it wasn't necessary. The enemy wasn't there in the first place.

[All types of access to the carriage will be restricted until the scenario is complete.]

Along with this message, people were thrown back from the iron door like they had hit a transparent barrier.

'So there are barriers as well, neat huh,' Haru thought as he saw the Dokkaebi appear with an irritated look but then it smiled and spoke getting everyone's attention.

[Haha, there are some places that are quite fun while other places haven't started yet. Okay, this is a special service. I will show you what will happen if nothing occurs in the next five minutes.]

A giant screen appeared in the subway. The place that appeared on the screen was a classroom. Girls in their navy blue school uniforms were shaking. A boy bit his fingernails and muttered, "…Is that the school uniform of Daepong?"

Beep beep beep beep? An ominous beeping sound was heard. Then the high school girls started to scream.

[The given time has run out.]

[Paid settlement will begin.]

Once the announcement ended, the heads of the high school girls sitting in the front row exploded. One by one, one by one again… More and more heads exploded. The high school girls screamed and ran toward the classroom doors or windows.

"Ahh, uh, how?"

Then a high school girl strangled her friend, who died with a groan. After a while, the only thing that remained on the screen was the last schoolgirl looking around.

[#Bay23515 channel. Daepong Girls' High School, Year 2 Class B survivor: Lee Jihye.]

The figure of the girl on the screen disappeared. Then the Dokkaebi said,

[How is it? Interesting?]

'It is quite interesting, So you aren't alone huh, Newbie.' Haru thought while looking at the channel number, there were likely more like him all around the world.

And there is a thing that you will find in any profession with a lot of people....

'Competition, but for whom? Constellations? But what do these guys get?' Haru stopped thinking for a while since it looked like there were still many things he didn't know.

"…3707…." Haru heard Dok-ja mutter as Sang-ah tried to calm herself.

'We are in 3807, what does he mean by 3707 and what is he looking at? Did he open the wrong app or something?' Haru looked at Dok-ja's smartphone screen and it looked like it was a novel. There was no way someone would read a novel in the current situation at least not a normal person.

[You have obtained a unique attribute]

Haru heard a sound in his mind and it got his attention.

'Attributes? So do we get a status window? But now isn't the time to check that,' Haru turned his head and saw something happening.

"Queresha-ssi shouldn't we stop him?" Sang-ah asked Queresha while pointing towards a thin white-haired boy in a school uniform hitting an old lady.

'That is Kim Nam-woon of course he is in this carriage,' Dok-ja thought as he looked at his phone again.

Leaving Dok-ja alone no one in the carriage moved to stop the young man. They would've if this was the normal times but that was the point wasn't it? this world was no longer normal.

The video of people getting killed for not completing was still running in the carriage and cracks started to appear in the people.

But it looked like someone moved…

"Huh," Nam-woon looked back at the person holding his hand.

"Are you an idiot Ahjussi?" Nam-woon spat his words.

"Haru-ssi…." Sang-ah muttered she didn't notice when Haru reached there since she wasn't able to focus.

"Why do you think so?" Haru asked.

"Don't you know what is happening? Look up there, can't you see that people are dying? If we don't kill someone we all will end up in the same state," Nam-woon said while looking at everyone.

"The world we knew just ended, We need to adapt, New world needs New rules," Nam-woon said making everyone in the carriage shake. He was laying down the facts that they didn't want to admit.

"So if you aren't going to join in I'll do it myself," Nam-woon shook off Haru's hand and was about to hit the old woman.

"I told you to stop didn't I?" Haru pulled Nam-woon again.

"And I said you were an idiot, so if you don't want to be in the place of this old woman get lost," Nam-woon glared at Haru.

'What is Haru-ssi doing? Is he really going to stop him? that kid isn't right in the head, he was one of the people who adapted to the new world the fastest,' Dok-ja thought in confusion as the people were moving forward towards the old lady, he noticed that the little boy with an insect box was still sitting in his place.

"Then go on try it," Haru said while looking at Nam-woon who only glared back. Anyone looking at Haru would be intimated. he was quite tall with his height almost reaching 6 ft 3 in along with his well-built physique even the local gangsters would run away just by looking at him.

"What you can't? The only reason you went for the old lady was that she was weaker, wasn't she? So now why don't try it with me?" Haru said and Nam-woon scowled just like the former expected.

"You're pissing me off, let's see what your made o- WHAM*" Nam-woon jumped up and tried to punch Haru's face but got hit with a right throwing him into the ground.

Haru helped the old lady off the ground and made her sit in the nearby seat and looked at everyone.

The people who were looking at Haru with wariness took a step back, it was clear the man had trained in some martial arts, Nam-woon was on the ground and his vision was blurry because of the hit.

"I won't deny what he said since the current situation doesn't allow us many options," Haru said while looking at everyone.

'What is Haru-ssi doing? Wait he just looked at me, didn't he?' Dok-ja saw how everyone was focused on Haru and stood making his way toward the boy.

'Looks like he took the bait, he is an interesting one, he hasn't looked scared or worried once since the start, it is like he doesn't view this place as reality,' Queresha thought while looking at Dok-ja's back but she focused on Sang-ah who looked like she calmed herself down and started to tell her something.

"If you know it is true why did you step in?" Myung-oh glared at Haru, he was very angry to see him right now.

"I stopped them because I wasn't able to see an old woman getting hit like this, I am not stopping you guys do whatever you want but don't come this way, I won't kill you but my punches will hurt," Haru said plainly.

Several men gulped while looking at Haru and Nam-woon who still hadn't stood up from the floor.

"A-are you out of your mind you are alone," Myung-oh said and Haru didn't say anything. The people in the carriage looked at the screen that was playing videos of people getting killed and the clock ticking.

They had to do something, they can't stay like this someone has to die. And the old woman being the weakest was the prime target. Even if Haru looked like he was strong he was in their eyes a single man.

Everyone was moving towards Haru but suddenly…..

BOOOOOOM*

"Keuk,"

An explosion shook the train and some people fell on the ground, a brief period of silence reigned in the carriage and then a loud shout rang out.
