What is this awakening ability?
A dark alley behind a high school.
Several students were surrounding someone, smoking cigarettes in a noisy manner.
A child with a small physique who was cowering in fear.
Anyone could see that it was a scene where a group of people were playing with an outcast.
“Hey, Jinseong Kim.”
Yang Dong-ju.
Here, the leader of the group called out to the child standing in the center.
Kim Jin-seong, the child standing in the middle when a low voice called him, flinched and raised his head with fearful eyes.
“You know the girl group Red Girls’ sexy twerking dance? “Dance that now.”
“······!”
“You know the dance? “Is there anyone in Korea right now who doesn’t know that?”
Yang Dong-ju exhaled cigarette smoke and spoke threateningly. He seemed to be in perfect form more than once.
Yang Dong-ju said to his friends around him.
“Guys, Jinseong is dancing.”
“Wow! really?”
“Is our Jinseong making his Tic Tac debut?”
“Someone take a picture quickly!”
Soon, smartphones were being pulled out here and there.
Kim Jin-seong lowered his head, his face red with shame, and he didn’t know what to do.
Yang Dong-ju rolled his eyes at that sight.
“Do you want to get hit from behind and come out? Or do you just want to come out?”
Jinseong Kim flinched and answered in an ant voice.
“Ha, I will…”
“Hey, someone play a song.”
The guy next to me played a song on his smartphone as if he had been waiting.
Jinseong Kim hesitated and began to shake his body awkwardly.
“Fuhahaha!”
“Look at that squeak!”
“Hwiik! Shake your waist more, Jinseong oppa! “Giggle!”
The crowd’s laughter and jeers poured out on him.
At this moment, Kim Jin-seong was so ashamed that he wanted to die.
But I couldn’t stop dancing. Because she already knew that if she did that, she would be beaten right up to her death.
The humiliation continued for over a minute,
“Hey, turn off the song.”
It ended with Yang Dong-ju’s cold voice.
He walked up to Jinseong Kim and looked down with an intimidating look.
“Do you want to rummage? Is that dancing now? “Who told you to dance like that?”
“······.”
“Oh, fuck. I’m so fucking angry. I can’t do it. Please repay the deposit by tomorrow. “That will relieve my anger.”
“what? You brought it the day before yesterday too… omg!”
Kim Jin-seong, who was reflexively shouting in surprise at the word ‘payment,’ immediately crumpled as soon as Yang Dong-ju raised his fist.
A very thin haze flutters over his fist…
That meant mana, or awakening as a hunter.
“Where are you talking back to me? “You’re a bastard who hasn’t even woken up.”
“······.”
A time filled with monsters and various trials. At the same time, we live in an era where awakening is the default before becoming an adult.
Kim Jin-seong has not yet realized that both dogs and cows can do it.
“Not until tomorrow. “If you don’t bring it, I will make you realize what it is like to be beaten to death.”
“······.”
“왜 대답이 없어, 이 개새끼가?”
“Ah Okay···.”
Jinseong Kim had no choice but to answer.
Only then did Yang Dong-ju release the mana from his fist.
“Hey, what time is it?”
“59 minutes.”
“Ah, it’s already class time. let’s go.”
Yang Dong-ju’s gang returned to the back door of the school, spitting on the floor.
On the other hand, Kim Jin-seong stood there for a long time with slumped shoulders.
* * *
Same time, same place the next day.
puck!
“100 million···!”
Kim Jin-seong collapsed on the alley floor with a scream.
He seemed to be in a lot of pain and couldn’t get up easily and wriggled around.
Kim Jin-seong had already been beaten more than ten times.
“Hey, slave.”

Yang Dong-ju violently grabbed Kim Jin-seong’s hair and lifted it up.
“Did I tell you? “If you don’t bring it today, you will be left behind.”
“B-but I really don’t have any money…”
“okay? Then replace the money with something else.”
“What, what?”
“Take off your clothes.”
“······!”
Yang Dong-ju laughed heartily as he looked at Kim Jin-seong’s two greatly trembling pupils.
“Didn’t you hear? Replace it with the clothes you are wearing. “Guys, take off this bastard’s panties and take a picture.”
“okay!”
“Come here, you bastard!”
The group rushed to Kim Jin-seong.
Kim Jin-seong cried out and violently resisted the hands that forcibly tried to remove his clothes.
“Oh, no! don’t do it!!”
Kim Jin-seong struggled to escape their cruel grasp.
Then he staggered and walked a few steps forward, falling and hitting Yang Dong-ju in the chin.
“······!”
“uh?”
“omg.”
For a moment, everyone stopped as if frozen. Then he looked at Yang Dong-ju with a nervous expression.
Yang Dong-ju turned his head and laughed as if he was dumbfounded.
Kim Jin-seong said in a trembling voice at that sight.
“Dong, Dongju… Mi, sorry for the mistake…”
Pow!
“Wow!”
Kim Jin-seong, who was hit in the stomach in an instant, floated up and then fell flat.
“How dare this bastard ask for his master? “You really fell behind today.”
Yang Dong-ju rolled up his sleeves and began to step on Kim Jin-seong, who was lying down.
Kim Jin-seong gets hit without being able to block properly.
Before he knew it, tears were forming in his red eyes.
‘Why are you doing this to me?’
The sin of being born an orphan, growing up in poverty, and receiving no one’s protection. And the sin that happened to catch their eye.
That was the crime Jinseong Kim was being harassed for for two years.
‘Why are you bothering me? Why on earth! why!’
The resentment that had built up over the past two years gradually turned into anger in Kim Jin-seong’s mind.
It was an instant for that anger to turn into hatred.
I want to kill him.
I want to kill Yang Dong-ju.
I want to rip that bastard’s face to shreds.
kill!
Kill it!
Please die!
“Aaaah!!”
Jinseong Kim exploded and shouted like that.
For the first time in two years, he attempted to rebel against Yang Dong-ju.
Kim Jin-seong rolled his eyes and immediately swung his arm at Yang Dong-ju.
and···.
“···uh?”
After a while, a panicked voice came out of Kim Jin-seong’s mouth.
The shard of glass in his right hand was lodged deep in Yang Dong-ju’s neck.
Without realizing it, he picked up a shard of glass that had fallen next to him and swung it.
And, a large amount of blood was dripping from the area where the fragment was stuck.
“···uh···uh···.”
Yang Dong-ju, unable to understand the situation as it happened so quickly, stumbled and soon fell down on the floor helplessly.
“omg?”
“Do, Dongju?”
The soldiers were embarrassed and did not know what to do. Meanwhile, the floor around Yang Dong-ju was quickly becoming stained with blood.
Tiring.
It was then.
In front of Kim Jin-seong’s eyes, who were frozen in a daze with his thoughts completely frozen, something appeared along with a notification sound.
▶ You have defeated the wicked.
▶ Obtained 5 Vis Creama points.
▶ You have acquired the opponent’s characteristic ‘Strong Bone’.
▷ Gangol: Permanently increases strength and stamina by 5.
▶ Strength and stamina have increased by 5 due to the ‘Strong Bone’ trait.
A notification window that only awakened people can see.
But Kim Jin-seong was in no mood to be happy right now.
His eyes were fixed on the first line of the notification window, the sentence ‘The villain has been defeated.’
‘He died…?’
Jinseong Kim, 16 years old.
Upon awakening, he became a murderer.
* * *
Yang Dong-ju died at the scene from excessive bleeding. The autopsy results showed that Kim Jin-seong’s carotid artery was cut by a piece of glass he swung.
Although he was able to avoid it because he was an awakened person, Yang Dong-ju, who was a newly awakened rookie, did not have enough experience to react immediately to such an unexpected situation.
The school was shaken up by Yang Dong-ju’s death.
It wasn’t just because it was a simple murder case.
‘Dream Gold’ is a hunter clan that has recently been on the rise in Korea.
This was because Yang Dong-ju was the youngest son of Yang Jung-geun, the master of this clan.
“What kind of bastard!!”
As soon as Yang Jung-geun entered the police station after visiting the morgue, he shouted angrily.
“Who is this bastard named Kim Jin-seong?! it’s you?! 이 개새끼야!”
“Calm down, brother! Not this guy!”
“Where is that bastard?! Bring it to me right now! right now!”
“older brother! This is the police station! “Let’s go out first…!”
“Won’t you let go?! “Don’t let go, you bastards!”
Even as he was forcibly dragged out by his subordinates, Yang Jung-geun did not stop yelling.
“Kim Jin-seong, tell that bastard! “I will risk everything and kill you for sure!”
* * *
Time passed, and three months had passed since Yang Dong-ju’s funeral.
“what?!”
Inside the Dream Gold Clan’s master room, Yang Jung-geun’s shout came out again.
“Is this all it takes to send them to a detention center for minors for three years?!”
“yes···.”
“Why aren’t they just ‘forced laborers’?! “He murdered an innocent child in broad daylight!”
“Well, it was an accidental crime, and more than anything, there was a lot of evidence that he had been severely bullied…”
“What did you say just now?!”
“Oh, no! “I’m sorry, Master.”
Dream Gold’s second-in-command, Lee Dong-sik, hastily lowered his head.
Yang Jung-geun, who had been glaring with burning eyes for a long time, spoke softly in a voice dripping with murder.
“I give you one last warning. My children are not the kind of kids who would bully or anything like that. “I was never raised like that!”
“yes···.”
“Hunter club bastards are also a problem! You just believe what the kids say and immediately conclude that you were bullied?! “They’re like incompetent bastards…”
Yang Jung-geun, who had been swearing for a while, looked at Lee Dong-sik again.
“I can’t see the bastard who killed my son coming out of the camp alive and well three years later. “Do you know what I mean?”
“I know. “Are you saying we should deal with it at the detention center?”
“I know. “Then, of course, you also brought countermeasures, right?”
Lee Dong-sik immediately expressed his opinion.
“How about doing it like this?”
* * *
‘ha···.’
Jinseong Kim sighed.
This is because I saw through the window that the convoy bus carrying him had just passed the main gate of the detention center for minors.
Instead of causing harm to others throughout my life, I was only bullied, and instead became a criminal.
‘Still, it might be better than living as an outcast…’
Maybe the camp would have been better than the two years of being outcast, living a hellish life 24 hours a day.
And aren’t they also ‘forced laborers’, in which nine out of ten people will die?
‘Let’s just wait for three years. If you last just three years…’
Jinseong Kim looked at the status window floating on the left side of his field of vision.
———-
Name: Jinseong Kim
HP: 100/100
MP: 50/50
Strength: 11
Intelligence: 5
Stamina: 10
Agility: 6
Skin Defense: 0
Skill: None
Viscrima Points: 5
———-
Kim Jin-seong’s only hope when all situations are bleak. It was only his awakening ability that he realized when he killed Yang Dong-ju.
‘But what is biscrima? I’ve never seen a word like that even on the internet…’
“Everyone get off the bus!”
Soon the bus stopped, and all the boys, including Kim Jin-seong, gathered at the playground.
The leader of the acceptance center, standing at the head of the group, shouted in a loud voice.
“I’m only warning you once, so listen carefully! This is the infamous detention center for minors. It’s a place where only people like you who are awakened and cause harm to others, and who are worse than prison, come here.
The camp commander looked at everyone and continued shouting.
“I have absolutely no intention of looking after you or reforming you! The moment you disobey my words or have an accident, I will degrade everyone to the status of ‘forced laborer’ without exception at my legal discretion. Do you understand what I mean?”
“yes!!”
All the boys shouted with nervous expressions.
After the world of monsters unfolded, there were a few new things that appeared. One of them is a detention center for minors that was created instead of a juvenile detention center.
Worst of all, ‘forced laborers.’
Everyone here knew well through the mass media that more than 99% of people who become that person will meet a terrible end.
* * *
After moving to the camp, the boys all went to the shower room after completing their physical examination.
Kim Jin-seong was also standing in the middle of a long line.
“Who is Kim Jin-seong?”
At that time, one of the instructors shouted in a loud voice, and Jinseong Kim raised his hand.
The instructor pulled him out and made him stand at the end of the line.
“Wash last.”
Although he was puzzled by the sudden instructions, he was in no mood to ask questions, so Kim Jin-seong just did as he was told.
After waiting for a while, Kim Jin-seong’s turn came.
Kim Jin-seong, who was taking off his clothes in the shower room, felt something strange.
‘Why do I wash alone?’
I was left alone in the spacious shower room.
I wanted to ask, but the instructor had already closed the door and left.
Kim Jin-seong, who lacked courage, soon began to quietly shower alone.
After about 5 minutes like that.
“···huh?”
Jinseong Kim, who was about to soap his body, suddenly turned his head when he heard the sound of the door opening.
A muscular inmate with tattoos all over his body, who looked to be about 19 years old, came in.
And he was approaching, looking straight at Kim Jin-seong.
“Who are you? ···evil!”
Kim Jin-seong screams and clutches his right cheek.
Blood from a slight cut on his cheek appeared to be flowing down his chin.
The other person holding a jackknife responded to him.
“What’s going to happen to someone who’s about to die?”
