EP.81 Evenly Ripened New Meta!!
Baltane returned to the palace.
She lay on the bed and cast an empty gaze at the ceiling.
She could still vividly feel Ikhyun's fucking in her lower body.
Could she feel that pleasure again?
'Fufu, a cold man who doesn't even say goodbye.'
It was baseless confidence, but.
She believed they would surely meet again next time.
As they always had.
"I'll look forward to next time too, hero♥"
A single tear flowed from her eye. It split freshly as it fell.
***
I returned to the one-room again.
Ah, this air. I missed it.
I saw women around.
They must have returned before me.
They were all hugging each other joyfully, not realizing I had returned.
The joy of survival is always happy.
'Everyone seems safe.'
I felt relieved at the thought of finally returning. Now I can rest for a while.
I could feel at ease here. If no one had eaten it.
I went and sat on the sofa.
Only then did the women see me and rush over.
"Oh, my Ikhyun!"
"Heuung, Master!"
"Uuuu, oppa!"
"Haak, haak!"
Women rushing in like bitches in heat. I was overwhelmed by them coming from all directions.
I tried to kiss them one by one but got buried.
What, did they all get stronger?
Their momentum is crazy? I can't breathe!
Of course Ivy shone brightest.
She was pressing her face with breasts that seemed even bigger.
My nose was buried right in her cleavage and pressed.
It was painful but happy.
Ah, I could die happily. Really!
"Keoheok, I'm glad, g-glad everyone's safe! Since you're safe, back off a bit!"
"Heeit♥"
I barely pushed the women away.
I can't die now no matter what. I exhaled and laughed.
This is how I met the women again.
I was relieved and happy.
Sol-ji hung her arm over my chest and snorted.
"Master was right! I went around hiding my body as much as possible, and cooperated when I saw familiar faces!"
"That's right, I didn't answer when anyone asked about the destination like you said, senior! Did I do well?"
"Guuu, Sol-ji troll! Guuu!"
"Hey!"
I watched contentedly as they all chattered like baby chicks.
Yes, yes. You all did well.
Suddenly I became curious.
If they all survived like this, it means they each took over a place.
"So where was everyone's destination?"
Ivy answered first.
She clapped her hands.
"Gyu-mi and I were Geumnam Market!"
I was surprised.
What, Ivy was at the same place as Gyu-mi?
"Really?"
"Yeah, surprised? I was surprised too, senior."
I felt regretful.
I wish I had met Ivy along the way.
Just seeing her would have given me strength.
There's no point regretting the past.
Sol-ji pointed at So-eun.
"So-eun and I were Dongmyo Park."
"Ah, me too."
Suddenly Jong-mi raised her hand slightly.
Sol-ji's eyes widened.
"Huh? I didn't see you?"
"Of course. I went earlier than anyone and hid in a corner."
"What...?"
"And I wasn't Dongmyo Park but the market itself."
"Then say so."
"Shut your mouth."
Sol-ji and Jong-mi had a full-on staring contest.
They always fight when they meet.
I smirked.
Dongmyo area wasn't far from Dongdaemun Station.
If they were going to do something centered on that area, it would be a strategic location.
'With some effort, we could form business rights?'
Do I have some unknown business DNA?
Seo-hyun raised her hand.
"Ah, I was Arang Station. It was a subway station."
"Oh, that's close by. Well done!"
"Hehe, I got praised♡"
Looking at Seo-hyun smiling brightly.
My dick hardened.
Lastly, Yu-hee.
She sighed deeply then reluctantly opened her mouth.
"I was Home Minus. The one in Jinnae area."
"Jinnae isn't far from here? Close to Jinnae Station or Bonghwasan Station right?"
"I don't know."
"You did well. But."
I scratched my head and tilted it.
A very important question remained here.
"How did you all survive?"
Yu-hee glared at me irritably.
"Huh? What nonsense. You said to cooperate and survive..."
"No, no. I mean at the end. They make everyone fight each other right? You all survived well until the end?"
"What are you talking about?"
Yu-hee tilted her head.
She looked at me strangely as if I had spoken Arabic.
You're the strange one, you bitch.
But the other women were strange too.
Like an epidemic spreading, the women tilted their heads. I was flustered by their strange reactions.
Then Seo-hyun carefully stepped forward.
"Um, President. I don't know about others, but they just gave me a few percent share of the destination to congratulate me on surviving and sent me back?"
Then the other women chimed in.
"Oh? Me too!"
"Yeah, me too!"
"Same here."
"Hihi, if Gyu-mi and I combine our shares it's 51% total!"
Everyone seemed happy but.
I was rather shocked.
What is this? None of them experienced fighting?
This leads to one conclusion.
'You fucking Celestial Horse Demon bastard, don't tell me that killing each other was only for Dongdaemun Station?'
No wonder there were so many people.
There can't be that many even if destinations overlap.
This fucking bastard played a trick.
I sighed deeply while holding my forehead. This makes sense.
Multiple people can't survive simultaneously at the same destination.
It made sense if only I got screwed over. Fuck.
'No, for fun he probably had a few others go through the same as me besides just me. There's nothing that releases as much dopamine as the "kill each other" ending.'
If I were the Celestial Horse Demon, that's what I would have done.
But still.
I didn't think the Celestial Horse Demon would run the game this blatantly.
I thought he would just ban as if keeping in check. Fucking bastard.
'Is he challenging me? This son of a bitch, I want to stab Longinus in his mouth right now.'
Rather than angry, I was extremely annoyed. It felt like being given gum shaped like pizza after being promised pizza.
I wondered if he had to go this far.
But there was something good.
'Thanks to that, my share of Dongdaemun Station is 100%. Complete ownership.'
But I was still curious. So what now?
"Star!"
This time the Star I always saw appeared. I'm so glad to see you.
"Star has arrived!"
"Why didn't you come last time?"
"Ah, that? It was just an administrator issue..."
"Hm? Anyway, what should we do now?"
"You just need to wait for that?"
This guy is still the same.
Then Sol-ji stepped forward. Holding a bundle.
"Ahem, just a moment. Here, I'll give you a treasure so tell us!"
"A treasure?"
"Yeah, I brought it from Dongmyo!"
"Ah, I don't accept anything next to the Guan Yu statue. That's fake."
"No! Not that!"
Sol-ji unwrapped the bundle.
As soon as she opened it, all sorts of antiques spilled out.
Anyone would think she was a treasure goblin. Everyone was surprised.
"W-what?!"
"There were a lot of abandoned things in Dongmyo Market. Here, I'll give you one of these so tell us!"
Star looked through them with a surprised face.
Actually, I was surprised too.
To think she would bring out a bundle as if she had been waiting. Sol-ji, this girl, is she really a hard worker? How admirable?
Eventually Star pointed to one.
It was heavy armor that medieval knights would have worn.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
"This is genuine. Why is something like this in just a small country?"
"Who knows."
"Ahem, anyway I'll take it. Now, listen carefully!"
We leaned in to listen.
Star looked around unnecessarily then continued speaking.
"You all admirably survived the new game. As a reward, you received shares of your respective destinations, right? As you saw in the official notification, from now on players have gained shares of all the land in this place, no. This country."
"Ooh!"
"Some may have gained 100% shares for ownership? You can buy land or buildings themselves with points to own them."
"So what's good about that?"
Yu-hee asked with her arms folded.
Star smiled.
"Good question. It's similar to real estate speculation in reality. You can exercise rights over that place and the surrounding area."
"Huh?!"
"Simply put, you can demand items or points as a toll for passing through. Or you can do business there to earn items or points!"
Everyone was surprised.
Especially Jong-mi swallowed dryly.
"In the current situation, points are essentially cash, so we can earn more cash to become stronger?"
"That's right!"
So-eun raised her hand. How cute.
"Share similar, my share low, what do?"
"You can negotiate for that. For example, let's say there are four players who have shares of this building. They have 51%, 19%, 16%, and 14% respectively. Then you can pay points or items to increase your share, or give up your share in exchange for other benefits."
"Ooh!"
"Of course, priority is given to the person with the most shares. There's also a condition that it must exceed 50%."
I raised my hand.
I became curious about something.
"Then what if you own 100% shares?"
"That's simple. You own the place itself. You can sell it for a large amount of points, or rent it out."
"What about empty places without anyone holding shares?"
"First come, first served. When you go to such places, it will ask 'Do you want to own this?'"
Everyone marveled.
We couldn't help but marvel.
We thought it was just an apocalypse game. But they're completely converting this to reality.
Ivy covered her mouth in surprise.
"It feels completely different. But I kind of expected it. It's capitalism after all?!"
Everyone laughed. I had one more question.
"Let me ask one last thing. Say I want to have place A. But can I take it by force?"
"What do you mean by taking it by force?"
"Killing all the guys who have it."
Everyone tensed at my words.
Star grinned as if he had been waiting.
"Of course! In fact, Lord Celestial Horse will prefer that!"
"Hm? But that goes against the rules set by Celestial Horse?"
"No, there will be fewer people doing that than you think anyway. The storm in a teacup caused by a minority is always the dopamine trigger, right?"
Ah, I understood this right away.
It was the same with the locker painting terror at some women's university.
How much dopamine was released as the ringleaders were arrested one by one.
I stroked my chin then gave a thumbs up.
"Thanks, Star."
"You're welcome!"
First I had something to do.
I looked around at everyone and said.
"Gongheoeipguyeok near our building, whose is it? No. Let's go check it out."
"What are you going to do?"
Ivy asked while hugging my right arm.
This familiar and sweet scent. This is what I missed.
"We need to put on a grand show until the next game. Passionately!"
I got up from my seat with a smirk.
