Sponsored CHapter 21/32
Months after the D-day of the apocalypse, the four original stagnant waters were finally gathered in one place. However, there was no time for them to have some conversation between old friends while reminiscing about the past. It was due to the fact that the five survivors who attacked Geom-in were still around them, bleeding and moaning.
Seongho called his 3 friends to one side of the swamp. “The atmosphere is not right for our reunion. Let’s do that after we leave this place. Da-jeong, can you take Geom-in out?”
“Do you really want to kill them all?”
“I will kill everyone who comes in. Then it will finally be quieter for once.”
“You don’t have to do that, right? They aren’t familiar with the terrain here, so if we just quickly clear the boss room and leave…” Da-jeong advised. The thought of killing a dozen or more people was too much for her, no matter how crazy she was. On top of that, since it’s the first time the four of them gathered, she seems to want to keep the good mood up.
However, Seongho’s thoughts were different from her. “Open the Auction House now and see for yourself.”
The three of them entered the Auction House and saw the active comment section, then fell silent.
-Have anyone seen I Love Gimbap?
-No one?
-Where the f**k is the swamp with old trees… all I see are caves…
-But guys, can we even win if meet that b*st*rd?
-If we attack him altogether, he can’t do anything.
-That b*st*rd must be watching this comment. Yet he didn’t say anything. Which means he’s afraid. We can definitely beat him.
-LOLOLOLO. Are you drunk? even if you approach him with stealth, you will be found out.
-Why are you saying that? Are you a spy?
-By the way, once you guys beat him, what will you do? Kill him?
-Of course! I think it would be refreshing to kill that b*st*rd.
-But was it so wrong that he didn’t reveal the information he had? You guys here also didn’t give anyone information for free, aren’t you?
-LOLOLOLO. In my opinion, these guys were just being salty. They can’t stomach him taking what they couldn’t have.
-AH… They are just thugs then…
-They just wanted to put a blame on someone because they were annoyed that the world was messed up.
-You are I Love Gimbap, aren’t you?
-It’s convenient to blame everything on I Love Gimbap. Why did I die? Because I Love Gimbap didn’t release the information. Why do I have to starve? Because I Love Gimbap didn’t release the information.
-Why am I ugly? Because I Love Gimbap didn’t release the information.
-LMAOOOOOO
-Don’t forget that Duck buttock is here too. That f**king b**ch blocked the entrance.
-Wait a minute, then, aren’t there two of the four stagnant waters here?
-I remember someone saying that Survivor 1, Bae Geom-in is actually on Gimbap’s side, that he’s a traitor. So doesn’t that mean there’s three of the four?
-Really?
-F**k. Don’t tell me Rapwi is here too…
-Are you scared?
-Scared my ass. Rapwi is just human in the end. If we all attack together, he can do nothing!
-In movies, people who said that always died first.
-LOL
Da-jeong, took a deep breath as she read the comment.
“You must be angry to see something like this every day.”
“That’s why I want to kill everyone who comes in here. Then it will be a little quieter.”
Seokhyun, who was still quiet, approached Geom-in at that moment. “We must take the arrow out. Clench your teeth.”
“What…what are you going to do?”
“Just clenched your teeth tight.” Without being able to object further, Geom-in surrendered to his fate. However, unlike his words, Seokhyun slapped him in the face rather than pulling the arrow, making him lose consciousness. Only after that did Seokhyun pull the arrow lodged in his shoulder.
“Duck, bring him out. Two of us will take care of this place.” Seokhyun said while applying a potion to Geom-in open wound.
“Wouldn’t it be better for us to leave altogether later?”
“No.” Seongho answered as he checked his weapon stored in the dimension slot. “It’s narrow here, so it’s hard for your ghouls to run rampant. And Geom-in will not be of much help either.”
“When you put it like that…” Geom-in was not awfully weak, but he’s by no means extremely strong either. Therefore, Da-jeong could agree with Seongho’s assessment.
“Take Geom-in to our hideout and wait there. We will go there after finishing our work.”
“Fine…. Rapwi! You give the last hit from the boss to him, okay?”
“Of course!”
With that, Da-jeong supported the fainted Geom-in and went outside. Now, the human butcher and the immortal were ready to hunt some survivors.

Of course, not everyone who entered the labyrinth was Seongho’s enemy. Some people only want to attack the labyrinth, so they need to give them the chance to run away. He opened the Auction House and wrote a comment on the auctioned item with the labyrinth as it’s topic.
-Attention. This is I Love Gimbap.
-?
-You are an impostor, aren’t you?
-Yeah. There are more than 10 people who claim to be that b*st*rd before you, you know.
-Give us evidence!
-It’s up to you to believe it or not. I will only say a few words. I know there are people who came into the labyrinth, with the intention of purely trying to attack the wetland labyrinth. For those people, get out from the labyrinth now!
-What right do you have to command us like that?
-It doesn’t matter if you don’t leave. But, don’t whine once you die.
-What the?
-Are you threatening us?
-That’s right. This is a threat. I’ll give you 10 minutes, so get out of the labyrinth quickly. Because once 10 minutes has run out, I’ll kill everybody.
-This funny b*st*rd. Who are you to tell us to get out?
-Let me tell you once again. It doesn’t matter if you stay here. There’s no difference between killing ten or eleven people.
-If you are really I Love Gimbap, let me ask you one thing. Why did you take all your MeTube videos down?
-It’s obvious. This b*st*rd wants to live alone.
-Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t take it down just because I wanted to hide it. I take it down since the game is closing. Is it wrong to do that?
-What a nonsense, that b*st*rd is lying!
-Even if the video was taken down, the original is still there. Why didn’t you share it with the community?
-Why do I have to?
-You f*ck*ng b*st*rd, we can live together if you share it. They all die because of your selfish act!
-Why are you making a fuss about the video when you just heard it from the community?
-Humanity was wiped out because you hid it! It’s the same as you killing them all, you kinslayer!
-Funny… Did I call the zombie spores and the corrosive disease? Whether the information is released or not, the end is certain. What’s different?
-At least there must have been more survivors than there are now. Everyone died because of you.
-You guys are still alive yet still cursed at me. I bet it will be the same even if I give everything away.
-Anyway, you killed them all, you murderer b*st*rd.
-Yeah I’m a murderer. Curse me more.
For a few minutes after that, swear words poured towards him. When the other survivors who are off the Auction House heard that the real Gimbap had appeared, everyone immediately went in and did not even hesitate to throw in all kinds of insults towards Gimbap. Even his parents, ancestors, his dog, and everyone related to him got cursed as well.
Seongho just looked at the comments until ten minutes had passed. And then,
-10 minutes have passed. From now on, everyone in the labyrinth will die.
-You are bluffing.
-Hey, the ghouls went outside the labyrinth… doesn’t that mean that Duck Buttock had gone out too?
-Then is he alone?
-How about Survivor 1? Is he still alive? I read earlier that some guys from the government shelter were about to kill him.
-Hey, where are the guys who asked for help earlier?
-They are not dead yet, but they are going to die soon.
-They guy above me, are you I Love Gimbap? Let me ask you one thing. Are you going to kill them all and kill yourself before respawning using the resurrection scroll?
-Why should I use something so precious to kill all of you? There’s a lot of ways kill people in this labyrinth that wouldn’t turn me into murderer.
-You b*st*rd is only good with things like that.
-Totally crazy b*st*rd.
-You guys are the ones who are crazy. Haven’t you guys been itching to kill me for months now?
-But I’m here for the first time today?
-I know better than everyone that not everyone in the auction house swears at me. After all, I’ve recorded the IDs of everyone who ever insulted me, from day one till today.
-What?
– The ID of those who insulted me. Let’s see… The ID of the guy above me is Rapwi-nim Please Marry Me. Didn’t you insult my parents before? I wonder what I should do? My mother passed away a long time ago.

-No, I didn’t do that…
-Do you think I will forget you, who always follows Rapwi everywhere back in the game? Are you still going to hunt me down when you go to Busan?
-What the hell, it’s not me.
-Of course, you are not. Don’t you guys feel safe because this place is anonymous?
-What is my ID then?
-Parking King Parking.
– Parking King Parking… What kind of ID was that LMAOOOO.
-Genital Size King, I am a Mob.
-Huh?
As Seong-ho gave them their ID one by one, the Auction House went dead silent.
-I already warned all of you. It was you who chose to ignore it.
Everyone couldn’t hide their shock. In particular, Jo Yuhwan. After all, she was the one who incited the Auction House for a long period of time. Then, from her back, her colleague patted her on the back, trying to reassure her.
“We’ll be fine. What can he do alone?”
“Yeah, that’s right. There are four of us, we will win and show off in the Auction House.”
“We are not alone here. Find someone who travels alone and ask them to join us.”
“Wait a minute..·” Yuhwan wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at the comment section.
-You must be thinking. I am trapped here all alone. What can I do against so many people? Guess what? I am not trapped here with you. All of you are the ones trapped in this labyrinth, with me.
-I’ll come to every single one of you, and I will kill every single one of you, so just sit tight and wait for your turn.
That was the last comment written by I Love Gimbap. Yuhwan’s colleagues, who saw it, began to sweat, and everyone went silent. They realized that something was going wrong.

Seongho told one scarab the way to the boss room. Meanwhile, Seokhyun was looking at him as he couldn’t understand why he chose to do that.
“Wouldn’t it become easier if I help?”
“Yeah, it will be more efficient. But this is my fight, against my own enemies.”
“My friend’s enemy is also my enemy.”
“…” Seongho would be lying if he said that he wasn’t touched by Rapwi’s words. However, he still had no intention of changing his decision.
“If you really want to help me, just go to the boss room first. I want to finish all this alone.”
“Okay… Then I’ll go first, I Love Gimbap.”
“Why are you calling me that suddenly?”
“Seegs!”
“Ye-yeah… Seegs…” At that moment, Seokhyun left the swamp area with the scarab on his shoulder.
After making sure that he had left, Seongho went to another area to look for some lizardmen. When he found them, he would hit them lightly before running away. After repeating it for a few times, he kited them to the cave where the 5 unconscious survivors were and opened the portal to hide.
Meanwhile, the 4 survivors, except Kim Dae-ho, started to come to their senses.
“Ugh…”
“Oh f*ck…” Each of them cursed and tried to rise to their feet. Their faces were pale and their eyes were filled with fear. Kim Dae-ho, whose stomach was pierced by an arrow, was even paler than the others because of the bleeding.
“Dae-ho-ssi, Dae-ho-ssi!”
“Hey, what should we do about him?”
“It is dangerous to pull the arrow out. If he die, the person who pulls the arrow will become a murderer.”
As they hesitated, they moved away from Dae-ho, who was yet to die.
“But where did I Love Gimbap go?” Someone asked, and when Chae Sang-shin opened the Auction House to get some information, he was shocked before slowly turning his head towards his colleagues.
“He… He announced at the Auction House that he’s going to kill everyone inside the labyrinth…”
“What are you talking about? Didn’t he left without killing us because he didn’t want to be murderer?”
At that time, several lizardmen appeared from the entrance of the cave. The eyes of those who had not noticed them instantly went larger.
“F*CK!!!”
“Run away!”
Everyone limped and ran, but the man in the lead banged his head on something and fell to his back.
“Keuk”
“What, what?”
“Move! Move!”
The person who was trying to push him out also bumped into something. His hand and body felt something invisible was blocking the space in front of him. However, no matter how hard he pushed at it, he couldn’t even feel it budge a little.
“We are stuck here!” When the lizardmens were close enough to them, they threw the net at them. Two people instantly got caught in it. And before long, tridents pierced through their chest.
“Ackk!” A desperate scream echoed through the cave. Normally, the combined power of the four would be enough to kill several lizardmens. However, as they were suffering from severe wounds from the previous fight, and weren’t in their right mind because of the fear, their body was unable to move as they wanted.
“…” Seongho came out as the five survivors died. Without sparing any glance at their body, he moved to another place. It would be nice to kill and loot the lizardmen, but his priority right now was to hunt all the other survivors inside the labyrinth.

Jo Yuhwan and her party hurriedly turned around and ran as fast as they could towards the entrance. At first, they planned to push I Love Gimbap to the corner by collaborating with other people, but the situation had changed. When I Love Gimbap mentioned each of their IDs one by one, everyone got scared. In their party, there was one amongst them who was mentioned. It was Jo Yuhwan herself.
“I told you several times not to do that. Why are you still doing that?”
“What did I do? He doesn’t know where we are anyway.”
Jo Yuhwan spouted some excuse to the man who scolded her, but deep down she knew that she was in trouble. In the midst of her darkness, she looked everywhere rapidly with her panic-filled eyes. At that moment, the man who ran in front of her stopped and scolded her.
“I don’t care whether that b*st*rd know or not. You should be careful in the first place! Why do you keep angering him by insulting him? And also insulting his parents, even!?”
Normally, it wouldn’t be a problem as they 4 were always laughing together when they were cursing at I Love Gimbap. However, a few minutes ago, I Love Gimbap had mentioned her ID: Tall Woman. Not only that, he also pointed out that her lover’s ID was Tall Man. Because of that, she and her party were frightened and ran away from the Auction House, but it was too late, as her ID had already been recorded by I Love Gimbap, and she had been marked.
“If we leave this labyrinth, we’ll be safe! And what’s so scary? There are four of us.” Tall Woman spat towards her lover, Tall Man.
“Ha… Really… You can say that because you don’t know how strong I Love Gimbap is.”
“Didn’t you say that you would crush him if he showed up? Where did all that courage go?”
“This girl…”
“What? Do you want to hit me? Hit me! Hit me!”
“Let’s just not fight…”
The other two tried to separate the fighting couple. But they didn’t even listen. The veins bulging on their neck was evidence of how intense their emotion was.
“For F**k sake! Just stop!!”
“What did you say? F**K?”
Now, it’s not just the couple who were fighting, but all four of the party. The extreme circumstances they found themselves in had blown all of their reasoning out of their heads. And as they pointed and argued like that, they didn’t even realize that a fairly huge man dressed in black was slowly creeping towards them.
“Tall Woman, and Tall Man. Found you.”
When the woman heard that her ID was being called, she bent her knees a little to make her look shorter. But the ghastly gaze of the man was directed right at her.
“It’s useless to hide or lie, because I know it’s you. By the way, your insults were pretty creative, I’ll give you that.”
“Wh-what are you talking about? I didn’t do it.”
“Weird… Then are you saying that my skill is wrong? Isn’t the man next to you your lover? The “Tall Couple”, Tall Man and Tall Woman.”
“Hey, I’m not her lover…” Surprisingly, the man denied that he was Tall Woman’s lover. As the woman turned towards him and glared at him, a blunt voice came from behind her.
“I don’t think you are in a situation where you can worry about someone else… Well, it doesn’t matter whether I’m right or not. I’m going to kill everyone here anyway.”
“You are alone and there are four of us…”
When Jo Yuhwan raised her crossbow, Seongho laughed at her.
“Shoot.”
“I’m really going to shoot… I’ve never killed anyone… So, it doesn’t matter if I kill one person!” Since their distance was close, Jo Yuhwan was sure it would be difficult for even I Love Gimbap to avoid it, no matter how high his stats were.
But Seongho was relaxed. “Shoot. Is it hard to pull the trigger? Should I help you?”
“F**k!” Yuhwan spit out swear words and pulled the trigger. The arrow blitzed through the air, but before it hit Seongho, something blocked it and the crossbow bolt bounced away from him.
“Huh?”
“Wha-what?”
People who directly witnessed Seongho’s unique skill for the first time have always reacted like them. And every single one of them has met a similar ending so far.
“Now that you’ve taken your shot, wouldn’t it be just fair for me to shoot mine too?” As Seongho murmured, an arrow popped out of the air all of a sudden. Then, that arrow pierced Tall Man’s chest in an instant.
Jo Yuhwan opened her mouth wide when she saw the thickness of the bolt, which was the biggest arrow she had seen so far, far bigger than her crossbow bolt.
“It doesn’t make any sense.”
The other two instinctively started running back. However, they were sucked into the dimensional prison that suddenly opened in front of them.
“AHHHHHHHHH!”
A huge sea, where Rapwi could barely survive, swallowed them up. Now the only one left was Tall Woman. She panicked and began to run away with a scream.
Seongho turned away from her and started to walk away. After all, there’s no way for her to survive alone, as he already kited some lizardmen to this area in advance.
“Aaaaah!” After a while, a deafening scream of terror echoed. However, without looking at the source, Seongho quietly left the place.
