Episode 77. Genius is a sleeper
The time when Kim Jin-seong was hunting Quagmire and collecting points.
Lee Deok-gu, who jumped onto the ground as if running away, looked troubled as soon as he joined the taggers.
“Ah, sir… “What should I do?”
I realized an important fact that I had forgotten.
‘Now that I think about it, I’m not confirmed to have passed the preliminaries yet, right?’
This could be seen as the sadness of all the taggers who had detection skills in this round.
Even if you take the lead and help find the thief, once you actually kill the thief, the management does not judge you as passing the preliminary round.
Only those who directly participated in the battle were judged to have passed.
‘What should I do? Too many taggers have already passed the preliminary round… .’
Lee Deok-gu looked around at the taggers around him.
There were about 40 participants chatting with each other in a relaxed manner, as if they had taken a breather. Those were the taggers who were confirmed to have passed.
‘The problem is that those who passed were the strongest of the remaining taggers.’
In this situation, it was difficult to lead the taggers back out to find the thief.
From the point of view of the taggers who had already confirmed their passage, there was no need to listen to Lee Deok-gu’s instructions.
If you come forward for no reason and meet Jinseong Kim, it will be nothing short of a disaster.
From their perspective, there was no longer any reason to take risks and fight.
‘What do we do… ah!’
As Lee Deok-gu was spinning his head, a face suddenly passed through his mind.
‘That’s right, there was still snow left!’
Among the current Colosseum participants, Seoldown is known to be the closest to the morale level in terms of natural ability.
Come to think of it, he was still on the tag team.
‘I’ll have to go and convince him!’
It was at that time that Deokgu Lee, who had made up his mind, was about to give instructions to everyone to move towards the main castle.
“Hey, Deokgu.”
He turned his head at the voice of a tagger.
Turns out, he was one of the two people who had given out cigarettes at lunch earlier.
“What happened?”
“Looking at it now, I don’t see any Pungbitgaram?”
“… uh?”
Only then does Deokgu Lee quickly look around.
After confirming that Pungbitgaram could not be seen anywhere around him, he made an expression of regret.
‘That’s right, Pungbitgaram! I completely forgot!’
The appearance of Lee Deok-gu looking particularly regretful.
‘If I had, I could have killed it now and made it straight to the preliminaries!’
Thinking that to himself, Lee Deok-gu looks around his surroundings one more time with regret.
But even if I looked back one more time, there was no way I would find the missing Pungbitgaram again.
* * *
That time.
Pungbitgaram had already moved to the southern airfield.
He hid inside an abandoned house nearby and was concentrating on the voices coming from the earphones in his ears.
– yes? Captain Yang Jung-geun is dead?!
– Yang Jung-geun is not the only one who died! Jang Hyeong-tae, Wang Mandu, Hwang Bo-kyung, Im Sang-hoon… . All of the supplementary personnel that General Yang Jung-geun had selected as aces were killed by Kim Jin-seong.
– omg… So what do we do now?
– well? Well, what will Lee Deok-gu do? Because I already passed.
– under… .
The voices heard were judged to be taggers belonging to the hunting team and the defense team, respectively.
Pungbitgaram, who was eavesdropping on the taggers’ conversation, soon sighed in relief.
“Phew, that’s a relief. “As expected, my judgment was correct.”
Pungbitgaram, who had been in a bad mood ever since Yang Jung-geun was disappeared by Kim Jin-seong, took advantage of the chaotic situation when the hunting team was fighting underground and immediately turned into smoke and ran away.
And that judgment was correct.
‘If I had stayed on the tag team without Yang Jung-geun, it wouldn’t be surprising if I got stabbed in the back at some point.’
Pungbitgaram himself signed an alliance contract with Yang Jung-geun, not with the entire tag team.
In fact, when I entered the castle, there were many taggers who looked at me with murderous eyes as if they were looking at their prey.
‘Anyway, from my perspective now, it’s actually good. They lost their central point, Yang Jung-geun, and lost many of their core troops.’
Now the thief’s chances of survival are higher than ever.
Above all, the existence of Kim Jin-seong and that monster will put enormous pressure on the taggers. If you step forward rashly, there is a very high chance that you will be kidnapped and killed like Yang Jung-geun.
‘Now, the tagger doesn’t have any cards to compete with Kim Jin-seong, right? … ah!’
Soon, Pungbitgaram remembered a person’s face and his expression hardened again.
‘There’s still snow left… .’
Seoldown was too unexpected a card to say it was over.
With Seol-daun’s ability shown in the first round of the preliminaries, he could easily defeat the other thieves except Kim Jin-seong.
Including Pungbitgaram himself.
* * *
At a time when everyone was on guard or looking forward to the existence of Seoldown.
On the official Colosseum Survival channel, Kim Jin-seong beating up five people, including Yang Jung-geun, in subspace was once again being played as a highlight scene.
– Wow
– Look at me playing with five people by myself haha.

– As expected, King God Jinseong… He is a god and a legend… .
– But how can you take pictures inside subspace? Can’t you see the cameras installed outside?
– It is said that all participants have state-of-the-art wireless cameras installed inside their clothes.
– I see
By the time viewers’ chats were uploaded, the image of Yang Jung-geun dying horribly was shown on the TV screen.
That was the last scene of the highlight.
[Once again, you enjoyed the battle between Kim Jin-seong and Yang Jung-geun’s team. Kim Jin-seong has finally succeeded in getting revenge!]
[Actually, it was a predicted situation. Because Kim Jin-seong’s growth was so fast. But I won more overwhelmingly than I thought.]
[Now that Yang Jung-geun is dead, wouldn’t it be possible to say that the tag team has no cards to stop Kim Jin-seong?]
[No. There is still one person left.]
– Seoldown
– It’s snowing!
– There’s still some Lunar New Year’s Eve left.
[That name is coming up in the chat window.]
[Oh, I see! Seol Daun, who is called a ‘natural genius’, still remains on the tag team!]
While the commentator was continuing the broadcast.
The main PD, who was watching from the monitor room, asked the iTube official next to him.
“What is the reaction to the Kim Jin-seong vs. Yang Jung-geun team video?”
“It’s explosive. “I think we’ll just pass 5 million today?”
“It’s as expected. Then, cut the good parts of the fight scene into separate shorts and upload them. In particular, you must upload the scene where Kim Jin-seong suddenly becomes stronger.”
“all right.”
“good. “From now on, let’s focus on Kim Jin-seong vs. Seoldown in Group A.”
Soon after the main producer’s words, numerous monitors began broadcasting images of either Kim Jin-seong or Seol-daun.
“… But Seoldown, when does he wake up?”
The PD muttered in embarrassment when he saw Seol-daun still sleeping on the sofa in the waiting room in the annex.
Looking at the situation, it seemed like there was still a long way to go before I could wake up.
“It has to happen slowly so that the viewership ratings don’t drop… .”
When the main producer muttered that with a worried expression.
Jang Seung-wook, who was sitting in the back, spoke while putting a piece of sushi that had just been delivered into his mouth.
“With Seol-daun sleeping, the situation in Group A continues to get more interesting. “If I hadn’t slept, I think the results would have been dull already.”
“It probably ended with a victory for the tagger.”
Jang Seung-wook asked Baek Jun, who answered in agreement.
“Maybe Kim Jin-seong is dead too, right? “If Seoldown had joined Yang Jung-geun’s team and fought together.”
Baekjun thought for a moment and quickly answered.
“With high probability.”
Afterwards, it was time for him to also take a piece of sushi to his mouth.
[Ah, just as I spoke, several taggers, including Deok-gu Lee, entered the villa!]
[It looks like you came to wake Seoldown, right?]
Baek Jun and Jang Seung-wook’s heads were raised in that direction as the commentators were broadcasting on TV.
The image of Lee Deok-gu and others just opening the door of the villa was being broadcast on the monitor.
* * *
‘… ‘I’m having a good night’s sleep.’
This was the thought that came to mind as soon as Lee Deok-gu entered the villa and saw Seoldown.
I was sleeping so well that I felt bad waking him up, but now I have no choice but to wake him up.
If you relay the current situation, Seoldaun will definitely come to his senses and start hunting down the thieves. So Deok-gu Lee had no doubt about it.
“Hey, Mr. Seoldown?”
Lee Deok-gu carefully called Seol-daun.
Still, when he didn’t seem to wake up at all, he immediately placed his hand on Seoldaun’s body and began to shake it slowly.
It was only then that Seoldown opened his eyes.
“… what? Chureup.”
The image of Seol-daun wiping the drool flowing from the corner of his mouth while asking that question with half-closed eyes.
“Now stop sleeping and wake up. “If we are not careful, we may be eliminated from the preliminaries.”
“… How many… ?”
“It’s just past 3 p.m.”
“Hey, Mr. “There’s still a long way to go!”
As soon as he heard the current time, Seoldaun closed his eyes again and leaned his head on the sofa.
“I’ll sleep better, so let’s all go out. I need to sleep at least 10 hours a day… .”
Afterwards, Lee Deok-gu looked embarrassed as he tried to fall asleep again.
It was almost as if this person had no sense of crisis at all.
“No, why don’t we just grab everything and go back to the dorm and sleep! “You don’t have to sleep for a day!”
“Oh, fuck off!”
“… … !”
For a moment, Lee Deok-gu’s expression hardened.
Be that as it may, Seoldaun closed his eyes and continued to command guests.
“I won’t tell you twice. “Don’t disturb me, close the door and leave.”
Afterwards, Lee Deok-gu’s face turned red as he kept his mouth shut.
He eventually couldn’t hold back his anger and shouted loudly.
“Is this really going to happen?! Do you know how much other taggers are waiting for you right now?! Everyone is waiting, but if you keep acting like this… !”
That was when I shouted all the way there.
puck!
Lee Deok-gu’s head was shattered like a watermelon bursting.
“Huh?!”
“Ahh!!”
The other taggers, seeing blood and flesh splattering everywhere, were scared and took a long step back.
The only person who was flexible and calm was Seol-daun, the criminal who killed Lee Deok-gu.
“Noisy about the ‘underdog’ topic… .”
The appearance of Seol-daun muttering with narrowed eyes.
At the same time, something surprising happened to the taggers watching.
The blood and flesh splattered in all directions suddenly began to move towards Lee Deok-gu’s headless body, as if it was alive.
“… … !”
‘W-what is it?’
Soon, the flesh piled up on the corpse’s neck like a lump of meat, and at the same time, the flesh and the corpse slowly rose into the air.
Then, it flew at high speed towards the entrance where the taggers were standing. It was as if someone transparent had thrown it in.
“Huh?!”
“Wow!”
The taggers quickly turned to the side to avoid the flying birds.
When the flying corpses and chunks of flesh were strewn about in the yard outside the annex.
Seoldaun, who had closed her eyes again, opened her mouth.
“Everyone, please rest well. When you wake up, I will hunt down all the thieves… . “Hmm~.”
Seoldown yawns and begins to sleep again.
None of the taggers who were watching even thought of waking him up.
‘Crazy bastard… !’
‘Anyway, how did you kill Lee Deok-gu? ‘I don’t think you even touched it?’
‘It’s clear that this guy is just as much of a monster as Kim Jin-seong… !’
The taggers slowly walked out the front door, thinking that they would wake up again.
They were taking very careful steps for fear of hearing footsteps.
* * *
Time continued to pass and it became a dark night.
The environment has become much more favorable to thieves who must survive without being caught.
“Oh my, my waist.”
Just after 9 p.m., I heard the sound of snow falling and stretching inside the villa.
He muttered while scratching his stomach with a refreshed expression.
“I slept well… . “Shall we have some fun now?”
At the same time, his appearance disappeared completely from within the annex.
However, a second later, it was Seoldown that appeared again with a growling sound from the front door.
“… “Let’s eat first.”
While stroking the rocking top of his stomach, he walked toward the main building where lunch boxes were provided.
