[You're livelihoods collapsed over night]
[Then some strange beings started taking your coins]
[And your friends are now your enemies]
What sort of shitty speech is he saying now?He's just getting in the way of us defeating the disaster.
[At least you no longer have to go into work]
Work...at least that was in the past.
[But now the stars in the sky are saying]
["I'll give you 100 coins if you dance like a monkey"]
Is he trying to humiliate us?Why is a dokkaebi from Tokoyo dome in Seoul dome?He shouldn't even be here!
[I understand the helplessness you must've felt]
[You've managed to muster up courage and start a new life in this world.]
Not that much of a new life...
[But,even here, it's already decided on who fails and passes]
[The defeated you must've felt when you realised that those are better than you already had better supporting constellations.]
I don't have one yet maybe I'll have a chance in the upcoming constellation selection.
[When you've worked so hard to find one yourself...]
[I've prepared this opportunity for people like you]
More like some begging bastards.
[The unlucky and the down-trodden]
[Will now get the chance to turn your life around!]
A screen of the disaster appeared so that everyone could see although he was just stood next to me not moving a muscle.
[Now.The boy you're seeing right now is a walking SSS-grade item]
[His name is Islang Meong]
[He was fortunate enough to be chosen by the star stream to transverse to another dimension]
[You've imagined this at least once,eight?]
Yes,indeed I had.And now,that dream's come true.
[You've been summoned to a different realm with immeasurable powers]
[You spend the night with your hot,elf girlfriend...]
Lots of people were angered by this.
[...Save the world and become the hero of it]
[That's right]
[This dammed brat is]
[The catastrophe you must hunt]
Fuck all they're going to do is get themselves killed and,to top it off,probably answer his questions so he gets stronger.
[How do you defeat an SSS-grade catastrophe,you ask.]
[Don't worry his powers have been sealed away]
[He may be strong but he's a treasure box waiting to be opened if you all join forces.]
Yeah,a treasure box that tricks you.It makes you greedy and makes you lose your self-control.It's smart calling him a treasure box he isn't really but that'll get people to come to him.
"Over there!I've found him!"
Ugh.More rascals.
"Don't you dare answer his questions or I swear to god I'll fucking kill you."
"Why should we listen to you?"
How could I persuade them to?
"Oh I know how about I demonstrate?I'll ask you all questions and you just have to answer them!"
"Ok."
[The first question has been answered]
[The first seal has been broken]
Darn.
"Do you want me to send you to the place I lived in?"
'Hope' appeared in their eyes.Of course they would say yes.
"We can?"
"Of course you can!But do you want to go there?"
"Yeah!Why not?"
[The second question has been answered]
[The second seal has been broken]
[The third question has been answered]
[The third seal has been broken]
"Well,see you!"
"?"
He grinned.
"Because I destroyed that place."
He jumped behind the person who answered his question and kicked him far.He wasn't strong now it was just that that person had been slacking(not doing the scenarios properly).
"Ack!"
Hm?How was he already coughing blood?In normal cases,I would go and help them using the new [Recovery] skill I have but they're a weak,naive person.
"Which of you guys are the strongest?"
Damn another question.
"U-um someone called Y-Yoo Joonghyuk..."
[The fourth question has been answered]
[The fourth seal has been broken]
"Everyone,stop!The catastrophe is tricking you."
"Wait...catastrophe?The dokkaebi said he was an opportunity!"
"That's only if you are strong enough to kill it and now you all probably aren't because you've unlocked some seals."
"Why should I believe a dumb child?!"
A man barged through and threatened me.
"Listen kid,we're in the apocalypse so obviously they'd give us a reward."
"But they like to see us suffer..."
"Shut up damn child.You know what let's all answer his questions to annoy this kid."
"I'm not a child."
"Well you act like one."
Ugh stupid ass people they are.
"Give us questions!We'll answer them."
"What year is it?"
"2024"
[The fifth question has been answered]
[The fifth seal has been broken]
The catastrophe looked around.
"What season is it?"
"Autumn."
[The sixth question has been answered]
[The sixth seal has been broken]
"What month is it?"
"Sep-"
I sliced the woman's head off.It was a shame she was deceived into answering the questions.
[The seventh question has been answered]
[The seventh seal has been broken]
Wait but how?I remembered Ahjussi's and Ariadne's conversation
'The light only goes away once they are satisfied with their answer'
That concept must be what's going on here.He had enough information to know it was September.
"Alright!Who wants to play?"
"Me!"
"I do!"
"Yes!"
[The eighth question has been answered]
[The ninth question has been answered]
[The tenth question has been answered]
Already ten seals unlocked?This turned out worse than I was expecting.
[Islang Myeong has used the skill 'Middle red fire cannon']
I grabbed some children and carried them out of the way.
"Argh!"
I was still in range of the attack.It was paining but then the children...I'll have to protect them I mean they can't do anything by themselves.It was agonising.My skin burned.I had just enough strength to whisper to the children.
"What are your levels of agility?"
"35"
"29"
"37"
Those were all good levels for children.
"Then go, go run somewhere where all of you are safe...so you don't die."
"O-ok.Follow me!"
"But we can't leave her behind!"
"Let's lift her out!"
What.Was I hearing this right?The three of them lifting me?
"Woah she's so easy to carry!"
"Let's go now!"
I really can't believe I was being carried by these children.
[The constellation'Prisoner of the golden headband' scoffs at you]

The kids threw me and I felt...legs?
"Cough cough euhh where am I?"
The kids pointed at the person behind me.
"Ah!Dear Tae I finally found you<3"
"Junseok?"
"You got it right <3"
Oh god no.Wait...why was he acting this strange?
"Taeee~"
"What."
"Aww why are you so injured?You have lots of blood on you!"
"The disaster."
"There's a disaster?Another?"
"You already defeated one?"
"Yeah the storm thingy one."
"Wait we still need to go to the catastrophe to defeat it!"
"But you're all-"
"Who cares?!"
I dashed towards the houses despite my injuries on my arm and leg.
"Wait up!"
