[There is 1 hour before the third scenario is activated.]

"We also need to find a room." Kim Dokja stated.

The moment the party got up, the people around them flinched.

"D-D-Don't come closer!" In particular, the man with a knife who was protecting a single person room on the No. 3 line platform showed high vigilance. However, other people rushed towards him before they could approach.

"Get out, your fucker!" They attacked indiscriminately. As soon as the man was pushed out, the mark on the green zone changed.

The owner had changed.

[Green Zone 1/1-> Green Zone 0/1]

The people were engaging in a bloody fight over the room. Someone was stabbed in the thigh while someone had their nose broken.

Jung Heewon frowned. "Shouldn't we stop that?"

"Why should we?" (Y/n) asked, Jung Heewon turned to look at her as though she just committed a crime.

(Y/n) sighed and explained, "Even if we intervene, the result will be the same. Someone will still die. It's inevitable."

"She's right," Kim Dokja uttered.

"Why does someone have to die?" Jung Heewon asked.

"It isn't possible to avoid in this scenario." Kim Dokja replied.

He just finished talking when the dokkaebi emerged in the air.

[Now now, shall we start the third day of the main scenario? New faces have arrived today so won't it be fun? Hahaha!]

Lee Hyunsung's eyes widened. "T-This…!"

[It is simple. Occupy the green zone before other people. Of course, you can take away the green zone of others. By the way, you should hurry. If you don't have a green zone after the scenario starts, you will have a terrible experience. Haha, then everyone should try it!]

"Oh. . . " (Y/n) muttered.

"Fuck," She added.

People's expressions hardened as they heard Bihyung's words. In the meantime, the screams of the people continued.

"Die! Die!"

"Bakugo is that you?"

"It's not the time to joke around, (Y/n)-ssi," said Yoo Sangah from beside her. Why is she always beside her?

"I-I'm not doing this because I have a grudge! I must survive…"

Yoo Sangah asked (Y/n) in a trembling voice, "Surely we don't have to fight like these people?"

"Why not?" She replied.

[ The constellation 'Tirek' says that you're a psychopath]

Yoo Sangah was looking at her with a 'are-you-serious' expression.

"I was kidding." Yoo Sangah sighed in relief.

(Y/n) was not kidding.

"We don't need to fight. Just find a room that can accommodate a large number of people."

"The size of the green zones vary by type. It ranged from fitting only one person to fitting 70 people like Gong Pildu's area."

"Of course, if there are any rooms left."

"I'm sorry, was that supposed to reassure us?!" (Y/n) asked.

"Dokja-ssi is really talented at making people uneasy. . ." Jung Heewon uttered.

"No shit," (Y/n) agreed.

"Let's move right away. Maybe there are some rooms left."

"It might be faster to split up. Divide the team. Hyunsung-ssi will move with Sangah-ssi, while Heewon-ssi should take Gilyoung."

"Oh of course you're with (Y/n)-ssi," Jung Heewon wiggled her eyebrows.

[ The constellation 'Princess of Self-Ruin' developed a liking towards Jung Heewon ]

[ The constellation 'Celestia' is holding a rope, just in case]

". . . Not the time," (Y/n) spoke.

"Hyung, that…what if we can't find one?" Lee Gilyoung asked.

"Then we're dead," (Y/n) casually stated.

Everyone turned to her with frightened expressions— well, except Kim Dokja.

"I'm kidding. I can't die, not when One Piece isn't finished yet."

"If we can't find a room, then 20 minutes before the scenario starts, we will gather here again."

The team scattered in an orderly fashion. Jung Heewon and Lee Gilyoung went to B2 while Yoo Sangah and Lee Hyunsung went to B3.

(Y/n) just stood there, beside Kim Dokja who isn't moving and just staring at his smartphone.

"Why aren't we moving?" (Y/n) asked.

"There's no rooms left."

"Bish, then why did you send them away for? Make them exercise?" (Y/n) cackled.

"Hey, do we have to kill in this scenario?" (Y/n) asked Kim Dokja.

"Would that be a problem?"

"No, of course not."

"Why do you look troubled then?"

Kim Dokja narrowed his eyes at (Y/n). She isn't one to have problems killing people. In fact, sometimes she toys with the people she kills— that was in the novel, when her sanity is decreasing.

Could it be. . . ?

"It's just that. . . Yoo Sangah and the others. . ."

[ The constellation 'Celestia' is happy to see your caring nature ]

[ The constellation 'Serpent of Eden' says that turning soft would get you killed ]

[ The constellation 'Celestia' threw a rock at the constellation 'Serpent of Eden's head ]

[ The constellation 'Princess of Self-Ruin' says that she likes this side of you ]

. . .

"Are you perhaps worried about them?" Kim Dokja asked, then he smiled.

"Psh, no. Why would I?" Kim Dokja smiled wider.

"Can you stop that? It's creeping me out."

"Since when did you start caring about other people?"

"I swear if you don't stop, I'll punch you in the face."
