The First Month's Settlement
As the sun rose, Kang Dohyun began his preparations. He slung his bag over his shoulder, donned his leather jacket, pulled on his gloves, and laced up his combat boots, just as he always did. But instead of an axe, he gripped a crowbar in his hand before stepping out of the house.
He lived in the Sarang Apartment, a twenty-four-story building. He began his ascent from the twelfth floor, climbing the stairs all the way to the top.
There was a zombie on every flight of stairs. But these zombies were nothing to him.
Thwack!
"Kuek..."
Experience points.
With his Presence Detection trait active, the solitary zombies were merely convenient experience points for Kang Dohyun. He reached the twenty-fourth floor and stepped out onto the rooftop.
The door leading to the roof had already been ripped off by someone else, allowing him easy access. The wind howled fiercely across the rooftop; the winter air was biting cold.
There's a good spot here.
Fortunately, there was a place to tie a rope. Kang Dohyun secured the rope with a double knot and fixed it firmly.
Let's go down.
Using the rope, he rappelled down the exterior wall. His first destination was Unit 2401.
There were only zombies here.
He landed on the balcony railing and used the crowbar to force the window open.
Crash!
He entered the apartment through the window.
Grrr...
Inside the living room were zombies that had once been human.
"Kueeek!"
They spotted Kang Dohyun and lunged at him. But he dispatched them with one-shot kills, smashing their heads cleanly with the crowbar.
Within ten minutes, Kang Dohyun had cleared Unit 2401. He returned to the balcony, grabbed the rope, and descended toward Unit 2301.
One person here.
Peering through the balcony window into Unit 2301, he saw a woman lying in the master bedroom.
Oh, lucky me!
She wasn't young, but she was a woman. Kang Dohyun salivated as he began prying open the living room window with his crowbar.
The woman in Unit 2301 of Sarang Apartment was Lee Harang. She was a thirty-one-year-old newlywed, married for only three months. The problem was that when the apocalypse struck, her husband had been on the night shift at the factory. Since then, there had been no contact.
Given that her husband hadn't returned, it was highly likely he was dead. Terrified of the outside, she had stayed inside the house, remaining alone ever since.
What should I do?
Her food had run out five days ago. For five days, she had survived on nothing but seasoning and water.
It's scary.
Going out to find food was too terrifying. She had no confidence she could navigate through the zombies visible outside the window.
Will I just starve to death like this?
As she pondered this, a strange sound came from nearby.
Crash!
"!"
What is that?
Worried, she walked out into the living room.
"Oh! You're in good shape?"
Kang Dohyun, who had broken in through the window, looked at her and spoke.
The moment Lee Harang saw the unfamiliar man, her heart dropped into her stomach. But immediately,
"What do you want? There's nothing here."
She spoke honestly, trying not to provoke him. Upon hearing this,
"Well, I don't need anything else, but you're quite pretty, aren't you?"
When he revealed he wanted her body, Lee Harang sighed.
"I'm too hungry to do anything right now. Do you want to do it with me while I'm lying here like a corpse?"
"Yes."
At Kang Dohyun's brazen response, she realized she had already given up on parts of her life.
"Do whatever you want."
At her words, Kang Dohyun took her into the master bedroom.
Once inside, Lee Harang took off her pajamas.
"Wow."
As she undressed, her naked body was revealed. She had a pretty figure, with a voluptuous buttocks that caught the eye more than expected.
"I don't like pain. You can do whatever you want, but please be gentle."
Lee Harang applied a generous amount of the love gel she used with her husband to her groin. Then, she lay obediently on the bed.
"I'll eat well."
Kang Dohyun removed only his pants and climbed on top of her.
From the perspective of a man raping her, foreplay was nothing but a nuisance. He thrust his erect cock into her pussy immediately.
Thrust.
"Ha..."
It was a pussy that felt the heat of a woman in her thirties.
"Nice."
"Ha.. Eo.. Ha.. Eo! Haeueo!"
As Lee Harang began to heat up, her moans grew increasingly lewd.
After about thirty minutes of sex, Kang Dohyun and Lee Harang lay side by side on the bed after he had finished.
"Haa... Haa..."
Lee Harang, having sweated while starving, had no strength to get up. So she lay still.
"That was good."
When Kang Dohyun said it was good,
"The last sex before I die. It wasn't as bad as I thought."
At Lee Harang's words, he was left speechless.
In the apocalypse era, many people died bitten by zombies or killed by others, but there were also many who gave up on life themselves. Hearing her say she was dying, Kang Dohyun got up from the bed. He reached into his bag and...
How many? Well, it was good, so.
He took out five combat rations and placed them on the floor.
"....."
Lee Harang stared blankly at the combat rations Kang Dohyun had set down. She was hungry, but she didn't react immediately.
"Um... I'll call you Oppa. Oppa, don't give up. Eat this, and when you get strength, go out and kill zombies. It's called the apocalypse, but isn't it a shame to starve to death like this?"
It was close to useless meddling. But even if it was rape, he felt sorry for a woman he had mixed bodies with to die like this.
"You know about the Status Window, right? If you use your Traits and Skills well, even a woman can hunt zombies."
He left the room and inspected the house. In a small room, there was baseball equipment, including an aluminum bat. He took it and brought it over.
"Just hit the zombies in the head with this bat. If they don't die in one hit, hit them twice, three times."
At his words, Lee Harang laughed bitterly, finding it absurd.
"Oppa, so, don't give up. Eat your food, gather strength, and try to live."
After saying this, Kang Dohyun climbed the rope and went straight down to Unit 2201.
Lee Harang was left alone in the house again after Kang Dohyun left.
"Ha..."
She struggled to lift her body. Then she tore open one of the combat rations he had left behind.
Once food appeared, her appetite rose even though she had given up on everything. And that appetite suddenly grew huge.
She didn't know how to heat the combat rations, so she hastily tore open the packaging and shoved the cold food into her mouth.
"Huk.. Huk.. Huk..."
After eating for a while, tears came to her eyes. She cried while eating the combat rations, making a resolve.
Right. Even if I die, I'll try to live until I die. I won't die a dog's death like this.
She decided to eat the remaining combat rations and go outside. She resolved to try killing zombies with the bat, just as Kang Dohyun had advised.
Kang Dohyun checked most of the houses in the apartment.
He cleaned up houses with zombies neatly, and didn't particularly bother houses with survivors.
And rarely, in cases where only one person survived, he checked them. If it was a man, he ignored them; if there was a good woman, he raped her.
But he was different from other lawless looters.
Instead of just raping the women, he gave them food in exchange and left.
Anyway, there was an excess of combat rations at his house in Suwon, so Kang Dohyun paid for sex with things he couldn't carry later.
Like that, he cleaned up the Sarang Apartment complex over ten days, hunting zombies and satisfying his desires, one building every two days.
January 31st, 11:55 PM.
The brothers were waiting at home for the first month's settlement. Of course, while exercising.
"Hup.. Ha.. Hup.. Ha..."
Kang Dohun had exercised really hard for a month. Especially, for the last ten days, he had reduced his sleep time to exercise according to his brother's words.
"Hyung, can I sleep after the settlement?"
At his younger brother's question, Kang Dohyun put down the exercise equipment he was holding and spoke.
"Ha... Yeah, I'm tired too. Let's sleep well."
Kang Dohyun was also quite tired, having killed as many zombies as possible in a short time, raped women, and exercised in the remaining time.
The two were waiting for the settlement.
And as 12 o'clock struck, the moment it turned to February.
The first month's settlement is beginning.
Finally, the first month's settlement had begun.
Settlement for user Kang Dohyun is beginning.
You have hunted over 1,000 zombies in one month.
First, the first target achievement was achieved.
You had sex with 100 women in one month, most of which were rapes, but payment was made.
Nice!
When he obtained the second target achievement, dopamine surged through his entire body. Especially, this achievement.
Now I can get any woman I want.
Now, no matter how he slept with a woman, as long as he gave her compensation, he would gain favor. Since this effect stacked, women who had mixed bodies with him for a long period would naturally submit to him.
True meaning of a harem.
He didn't get additional exercise-related achievements, but he successfully finished the first month's settlement by obtaining both target achievements.
After his settlement ended, Kang Dohyun looked at his younger brother and asked.
"How about you?"
"Me? Um... I got a lot. I'll show you my Status Window."
Kang Dohun revealed his Status Window to his brother.
"Wow!"
His achievement had upgraded from Exercise Expert to Exercise Fanatic. And as his younger brother was chosen by the God of Exercise, he now had triple exercise effects and was in a state of exercising even during normal times.
Up to this point was the achievement Kang Dohyun had aimed for, but additionally, he received World's Best Athlete. This was an achievement even he had never seen before.
"What is the 'World's Best Athlete' achievement?"
"It's an achievement given because I exercised the most in the world for a month. The effect is an additional 2x increase in exercise effects."
"So? You get 6x effect when you exercise?"
Thanks to his brother's advice, Kang Dohun had gained a very powerful physique.
In the first month after the apocalypse occurred, the two brothers suffered and received their reward.
Because difficult achievements were given generously up to the first month, there was a sense of worth in the suffering.
"Hyung, now. Can I sleep?"
"Yeah, let's sleep."
An enormous amount of dopamine had erupted, but the desire for sleep surpassed that dopamine, so the brothers fell asleep immediately.
