Theatrical Regression Life

Episode 485

Han Do-yoon and Kim Ki-jeong did not get lost on the road to the park, perhaps because they had passed by it once before. Both also had good memories.

Of course, it was dangerous because there were strong aggressive monsters along the way that got angry even if they made eye contact, and there were threatening rules like traps targeting prey.

However, both of them were survivors who had already experienced the underworld twice, and above all, the combination was excellent.

“I feel comfortable with this because Kim Ki-jeong has good ears.”

“I think it’s fortunate that you know how to do something like this…”

“Huh? “What are you saying?”

With his excellent hearing, Kim Ki-jeong recognized the presence of monsters and hidden traps.

“Ki-jeong, go back! How dare you write? How dare you?”

“Hey Iik….”

“Don’t worry, I’m not a strong guy. “Don’t run away, just stick to my back.”

With Do-yoon Han’s powerful power, he defeated the monsters that he was unable to avoid.

Because of this structure, by the time they arrived at the park, the two people were in quite a bit of a state of disrepair.

This is because Kim Ki-jeong, who was in charge of identifying the monster’s location, not to mention Han Do-yoon, who stopped the monster at the forefront, did not fight. The survivors were frightened by the sight of the two with wounds big and small.

“Are you okay? “Oh my god, look at all the hurt.”

“There are no dangerous monsters here, right? Please say yes.”

Jeong In-ho answered firmly to Do-yoon Han’s tired question.

“Yes, no. We also confirmed that there were no green algae monsters.”

“Ah yes? Oh, how can I check that…?”

“We didn’t go in and out of the green algae lake, so I can’t guarantee that it was 100% gone, but the green algae in the lake did fade. Since the overall pressure in the park seemed to have improved, I concluded that the green algae monster, which could be considered the final boss of the park, was gone.”

The survivors who were in the park did not stay still until Han Do-yoon and Kim Ki-jeong arrived.

In addition to basic survival measures such as setting up additional barriers in the pavilion and securing fire and water, they also looked at the overall atmosphere of the park just in case.

As a result, the green algae monster seemed to have disappeared, and the monsters in the park were also found to be less aggressive compared to previous visits. At least as long as they didn’t make eye contact, there seemed to be no need to fight.

“Fitz was a big help.”

Where In-ho Jeong pointed, there was a small monster dog with ugly, spiky fur.

“Ah, you ended up being Fitz? “What is our river rat’s name?”

“Yeah, it’s a bit weird to keep calling Pompitz an abandoned dog monster…”

“We’ve met again.”

“He came first.”

“wow.”

Are they hiding because they are afraid of people’s attention? Han Do-yoon, who was crouching down and looking at the white monster stuck on the wall of the pavilion, soon tilted his head and said.

“…Why does it seem a little fluffier?”

“also. Do you see it that way too, Mr. Do-yoon?”

Do-yoon Han nodded to Woo Woo-young, who reacted as if he had been waiting.

“Yes, the last time I saw her, she was… how can I say… covered in black liquid monster… no, of course she is still messy now, but compared to last time, she has become a fairy, right? “First of all, you can tell that the fur is white.”

“It was as if a dog covered in tar had been washed in a clumsy manner. Should I say that it is an eye attack unique to abandoned dog monsters? Strangely, the intensity of the mental attacks that cause feelings of guilt seems to have decreased a bit.”

Woo Woo-young continued speaking as if he was reporting what he had discovered.

“At first, I thought it was our mistake that they were softer or less aggressive. I’ve become so accustomed to the atmosphere of the other world that I feel less psychological shock when I see a monster abandoned dog. However, Yeon-seok testified that he was still shocked when he encountered the abandoned monsters living in the area above the pavilion.”

At her words, Han Do-yoon and Kim Ki-jeong looked towards Noh Yeon-seok. The young man, who was as tall and gaunt as a bead, had no focus in his eyes. He looked like someone who had vomited about five or six times.

Kim Ki-jeong, who hesitated, asked.

“…Was it very difficult?”

“…Yes….”

“Well.”

It was a crude consolation, typical of Kim Ki-jung, who has no words.

“So… I think you made eye contact with a monster abandoned dog, is that correct?”

“yes yes. saw. “Those pitiful eyes.”

“Ah…”

“I feel so guilty that I want to rip my brain out… When I close my eyes, it comes to mind… I feel like I’m going crazy…” “

That’s right.”

Noh Yeon-seok, who was exploring the park as a pair with Kang Min-ah, made eye contact with the abandoned monster dog, and he felt that the intensity of their mental attacks was the same as before. Other monsters of its kind are still the same, but if only one Pompitz feels particularly gentle, wouldn’t it be true that it has actually become gentler?

Han Do-yoon agreed to Woo Woo-young’s words.

“It certainly seems like that.”

“Yes?”

“So, something has changed in Fitz…”

“We’ve thought about that too.”

“Ah yes.”

“You said that the other side of the world is materialized by reflecting human thoughts, right?”

“yes yes.”

“Then wouldn’t it be possible to change the monsters that already existed in the other world with our thoughts?”

“omg.”

Han Do-yoon clapped his hands.

“Amazing, Great. So Fitz is becoming the so-called ‘dog rat of our house’?”

“My house’s river rat… Yeah, whatever. Fitz’s passive reaction towards us seems to be gradually easing, and seeing this, doesn’t it mean that he has opened his heart a little to our group of survivors?”

Woo Woo-young carefully extended his hand to Pompitz, as if showing off, and gently stroked its small back, which did not bite or groan.

And then the explanation continued.

“If monsters also have thoughts, then changing their behavior… wouldn’t be completely impossible. Above all, since this is a side world, I thought it could be influenced by the survivors’ thoughts. “Thinking about Fitz while we were out in the real world may have made some changes.”

Just because I returned to reality didn’t mean I couldn’t stop thinking about the other side of the world. Among them, Pompitz was the only monster that had any kind of relationship with the survivors, and was especially known to have been tamed by Lee Jae-heon. Because of this, some survivors often thought of the Pompitz monster.

If it were a world that reflected the thoughts of real people, wouldn’t it have also reflected the thoughts of those survivors? Woo Woo-young decided that way.

“Wow Fitz. Let’s look at the face. Woojjujjuju….”

“Daebak daebak I’m raising my head. Wow, it’s cute.”

“…I think it’s a little cute…”

Woo Joo-young, Han Do-yoon, and Kim Ki-jeong squatted down and looked at Pompitz.

“Looking at it like this, I can definitely feel a change.”

Han Do-yoon was impressed.

When Fitz looked up, his button eyes didn’t feel as gross or annoying as before, and his once soggy fur had become even softer, as if it had been soaked in a lake somewhere.

The colorful fabric that decorated various parts of the body was covered with white fur, and although it was a little sloppy, it had the appearance of a puppy.

“…Those colored fabrics were like the skin of abandoned monster monsters. It’s not a decoration…”

“…If you see the hair growing on it, it’s probably like that.”

Han Do-yoon heard Kim Ki-jeong’s words mumbling in confusion.

“The eyes also seem to be turning a little black for some reason.”

The previous Pompitz monster’s eyes were colorful plastic buttons, but the current eyes were black round buttons of a good size. If I still made eye contact for a long time, my heart would tingle and I would feel guilty, but it wasn’t unpleasant.

Han Do-yoon muttered and asked with a red face.

“…Isn’t this going to turn him into a real puppy?”

“I hope so. “I will be able to bring Fitz in with peace of mind.”

Woo Woo-young laughed awkwardly.

“Look at this, if you give them fruit, they will eat the fruit. “Aww, you’re so cute.”

“Wow crazy. Really crazy cuteness….”

“I never thought the day would come when I would call a monster cute, but it’s something I will live to see for a long time, right?”

Unlike those two people, Kim Ki-jeong had already taken a step back.

“Mr. Kijeong?”

“…I have a weak stomach…”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Although the intensity has weakened, the monster’s unique aggression remains. Most abandoned dog monsters had something that tormented the human mind even without physically attacking them.

It was not unreasonable for Kim Ki-jeong, who was naturally mentally weak and had been strained on his nerves on the way, to stay far away.

Seo Jang-hwa, who was quietly observing the situation, intervened and asked.

“So, detective, you’re still at school? “To that English high school?”

“Ah yes. I think the police officer said he was moving there too. The two of you said that you would help us find out the location of the survivors and their exact situation until the cell phone battery runs out…” “

It’s nice to see that since everyone is scattered.”

Seo Jang-hwa rolled his eyes as if thinking about something for a moment, then continued speaking.

“…and I think we should form an investigation team before the detective’s cell phone battery runs out.”

“If you say it’s an exploration team….”

“I heard Jaeheon Lee and the kids are at the aquarium right now.”

Seo Jang-hwa scrunched up his face. Kim Ki-jeong and Noh Yeon-seok had faces so ugly that they were shocked.

“With Song In-myeong and that bastard.”

“Calm down….”

“Do you think I’m going to calm down right now?! “I heard that this bastard, Songga, is with those delicate kids!!”

“Hey….”

“You idiot, don’t waste oxygen, go out and chase after them, but stay next to the kids who don’t ask when?!” Are you kidding me?! “I wonder how scared the kids must be right now!!”

Jeong In-ho thought after hearing her cries made up of 1% grief and 99% anger.

‘They’re not particularly afraid of Song In-myeong.’

Park Da-hoon and Jang Seo-ah might be the same, but Park Da-young and Choi Min-hong were not such easy children.

Moreover, if you listen to Hong Gyeong-jun’s story, it seems that Song In-myeong is acting in a quite cooperative manner, and there is no way that Park Da-young or Choi Min-hong would be afraid of Song In-myeong in that state.

‘Rather, you wouldn’t know if I told you to give me your liver or give me your hand.’

However, Jeong In-ho also agreed that an exploration team heading to the aquarium should be formed.

“For now, I will participate.”

Whatever it was, Jaeheon Lee couldn’t be left alone.

‘They even said that the person who serves as the secretary to the chairman of this party is with him.’

Hong Gyeong-jun gave a gibberish explanation, saying, ‘Uh… yeah, anyway, that’s how it happened…’ in a tone that said he was shocked and didn’t know how to explain this.

I heard that Lee Dang’s secretary, who rescued him during the last Seong Dae-young incident, was with him at the aquarium’s final theme zone performance hall.

‘It seems like Hong Gyeong-jun knows something more but is hiding it, but it doesn’t seem like he will reveal anything. I was planning on going there myself anyway, so I guess I can go and check.’

After organizing his thoughts, Jeong In-ho continued.

“Ah, let me just say in advance, I think it’s a bad idea to all rush in together. “We don’t know what might happen inside the aquarium, and there are already five survivors inside.”

“…5 people? “Aren’t there 7 people?”

“Yeonseok, just because someone is born from a human womb doesn’t mean they are all the same.”

“I understood.”

First of all, it was decided that Song In-myeong and Lee Dang’s secretary would not be human.

“Then me and Jeong In-ho…”

“…Why are you looking at me?”

When Kim Ki-jeong recoiled from Seo Jang-hwa’s animal-like gaze, her gaze returned to Do-yoon Han.

It was like a tiger with all its strength on its shoulders.

“Firefighter, let’s borrow a monster detector. yes?”

“Our Mr. Ki-jeong is such a thin person, how could he say such a thing…!”

“If I borrow something, will it wear out? Nope. I’m saying this for all the survivors, but if you react that way, I’m not disappointed. huh? Do you think I won’t be disappointed? “Do you make people feel bad?”

“Student Janghwa is so scared, hehehehehe…!”

Kim Ki-jeong shouted in absurdity.

“Why are you arguing with the wrong person over me, the person involved…!”

“Me, huh? I’m not asking you to borrow my uncle without thinking. “This is a story I came up with after thinking about it all.”

“Why do you keep talking to Han Do-yoon? “The person involved is here!”

Seo Jang-hwa steadfastly fought with Do-yoon Han.

“Just looking at the fact that you two came all the way here. Kim Ki-jeong, that guy doesn’t have any toothpicks, and the firefighter guy is strong, but doesn’t have a good fighting sense… Even though they both had some injuries, isn’t the reason they were both able to come to the park in such good condition because of their monster detector skills?”

“Hooh, you’re also a Janghwa student. “You’re very perceptive, aren’t you?”

“Where do we want to go now? It’s an aquarium. Hell, neither I nor Vivian have ever been there. Because when you guys went out to play, we were locked in the studio and touching the work. In other words, you have to go to an unfamiliar place where you don’t know what monsters or traps there are and rescue the survivors… How much easier would it be if you had a monster detector?”

“But our Mr. Ki-jeong is very timid. If you don’t treat it with the same respect as a sugar cookie, it will die out. “I am very worried about whether Mr. Ki-jeong will be able to go that far.”

“Huh, that’s how bad it is. Such an unfortunate thing for such a capable monster detector…”

Kim Ki-jeong shouted once again.

“Oh, so talk to me!”

Thus, Kim Ki-jeong was added to the exploration team.

Oh, Fitz too.
