Since I Beat the Mother, It's Time to Teach the Son a Lesson
Since I Beat the Mother, It's Time to Teach the Son a Lesson
『Hey, hey you, you!』
"Wow, long time no see. You're looking pretty well yourself, huh?"
Contact was made after 3 hours.
By now, the apocalypse had broken out, and it was getting dark.
I wondered what the hell they were doing in this situation, and I suspected it might be a woman.
Anyway, the bastard came running at the news, and we reunited after nearly two years, with the first-floor apartment's automatic glass door between us.
Park Jin-seok.
One of the main ringleaders of the bullying in Class 3-3.
What this bastard did is simple.
『Hey, who wants to beat up that piece of shit Seong Gi-hyeon?!』
He used me as a punching bag to show off in front of the girls.
< 1 hit if you get scared >
He made up ridiculous games like that to justify it, then beat me without a shred of guilt.
He beat me because my face annoyed him, because his grades were shit, because the homeroom teacher was a pain in the ass.
He was just that type of guy who acted tough.
In short, an amoeba-like parasite with absolutely no room for leniency.
"Ji, Jin-seok-ah!"
『Mom!』
And that parasite's mother is right here next to me.
With her cheek swollen from the passage of time.
Having learned to fear me, she doesn't dare get close, trembling as she looks at her son standing outside.
『Hey, you crazy bastard! What did you do to my mom, you fucking asshole!』
"Didn't do much. Her tongue was being cheeky, so I beat her a little."
『I'm going to kill you right now, you son of a bitch!』
He immediately took action.
A baseball bat was summoned into his empty hands.
He struck the glass door with it.
Kkiiiiing...
『Ugh?!』
But the one taking the impact was entirely Park Jin-seok.
As soon as he struck the glass door, the recoil traveled through the bat, making his hands tremble.
Kkang!
The bat fell to the ground, likely because his palms were stinging badly.
And it vanished as if its data had evaporated.
"Is that your ability? Weapon summoning?"
『What, what is this?!』
"I stole your mom's skill. It's pretty awesome, right?"
At that, Woo Min-jeong flinched.
It seems she didn't even know her ability had been completely stripped away.
She checked something belatedly, but her face just turned pale.
"Jin-seok-ah, Jin-seok-ah, it's true! I can't get in like this...!"
『What the hell is this!? Hey, you loser, stop being a coward and come out!』
"What's cowardly about it? You used your skill, so I used mine too—it's mutual."
I picked my ear.
Anyway, I'm the one in charge in this standoff.
With zombies potentially appearing outside at any moment, Park Jin-seok is the one at a disadvantage.
So I made a proposal.
It's unlikely, but just in case Park Jin-seok had turned over a new leaf, I offered a very generous proposal.
"Hey, Park Jin-seok."
『Who gave you the right to call me that, you bastard?!』
"Kneel."
『......What?』
A single word of disbelief.
"Kneel right now, reflect on your past, and say, 'I sincerely admit my defeat.' Then I'll let your mom go too."
『Has this bastard finally lost his mind?!』
Park Jin-seok pressed himself right up against the glass door.
He threatened me in front of the steel that looked like glass.
『You retard, you think the world has changed and you're acting all high and mighty, but I'm really going to kill you!』
"......"
『You forgot the time you were getting beaten by me and begging for your life, didn't you? Huh?! Seong-gi, answer me!』
"Hmm..."
As expected, this monkey hasn't come to his senses at all.
He even cast a serious case of memory distortion.
"I never begged? You're still a blockhead, I see."
『You little...!』
Negotiations failed.
As expected, this bastard hasn't learned his lesson.
Smirk.
Then I'll have to make sure he comes to his senses properly.
Ttererererererereng!!!
"?! Wh-what is this all of a sudden?!"
The Fortification ability I stole from Woo Min-jeong.
As an additional function of < Fortification >, I can utilize the building's original capabilities at 100%.
"What do you mean, it's the fire alarm."
So, I activated the fire alarm.
The loud noise spread everywhere, and the meaning of this was crystal clear.
"I'll watch, so try your best at zombie defense by yourself."
『?!』
I didn't need to step in for this revenge.
With excellent resources swarming outside, why would I need to dirty my hands?
-Ugh?!
-Uwooooorgh!
Without needing an explanation, zombies appeared immediately in response to the sound.
Then Woo Min-jeong, who was watching from behind me, stomped her feet and shouted.
"Run away! Run somewhere else quickly, Jin-seok-ah!"
『F-fuck... do you think I'll run away just because of this?!』
As expected, a bastard whose only thing is acting tough.
He summoned the baseball bat again.
Seeing the small group of zombies running in a line, he swallowed hard and swung with a rough full swing.
Kkang! Kkang!
One hit.
And another hit.
He struck the heads of the two approaching zombies.
Usually, in movies, this would be a one-shot kill, but reality was different.
The zombies were momentarily stunned after being hit, but since it wasn't a lethal blow, they kept rushing at him.
Ttererererererereng!!!
『Fuck, this noise is for real!』
"If you don't kill them quickly, more will come? Ah! Three more are coming over there!"
Park Jin-seok panted and somehow managed to knock down one zombie.
The other one was wriggling, but he beat it hard enough to leave it in a semi-fainted state where it couldn't move.
It was just for show at first, but his complexion changed rapidly at the sight of the incoming zombies.
He was missing his chance to run away because he was busy acting tough for no reason.
"Jin-seok-ah!"
In the end, Woo Min-jeong, who couldn't live without her son, rushed forward.
Unable to just stand still, she grabbed my collar and begged, clinging to me.
"Please, please open the door! My child is really going to be in trouble like that! He'll die!"
"I gave him a choice. He's the one who refused to do what you did."
"That may be true, but...! You know how Jin-seok is, right?!"
"You mean a poser with nothing but shit in his head?"
"......"
This time, she bit her lip in frustration and agreed.
But I still had no intention of opening it.
Instead, I let out a dry laugh at the live show in front of me.
"Leave him be. Let's see if he dies just from acting tough."
"No! Please, please, I'll beg on his behalf...!"
"What kind of idiot would open the door without a surrender, especially for a guy who says he'll kill me the moment he gets in?"
She didn't know what to do.
Woo Min-jeong stomped her feet, unable to leave or help in any way.
『Fuck, fuck, turn off this shitty alarm?!』
Park Jin-seok looked exhausted already, no matter how you looked at it.
The durability of the summoned bat looked good, but since his ability was just summoning and swinging, it was useless.
It didn't even need to be there.
That's why I could watch this show with more peace of mind.
Woo Min-jeong, who had already shed tears earlier, was crying again.
Seeing the zombies continuing to swarm, she couldn't hold out any longer and came in front of me.
"Jin-seok-ah! Just, just hurry up and say you're sorry!"
『Mom, are you crazy?! That bastard beat you up out of nowhere—』
"Honestly, I deserved it!"
Park Jin-seok, who was sweating buckets while beating zombies.
His expression was stunned for about 0.5 seconds.
Even in the crisis of immediate death.
A stupid face, as if he never expected those words to come out of his mom's mouth, whom he thought he knew everything about.
"Honestly... they say you have to experience it to know, and now that I've been hit, I think I get it..."
『Mom...?』
"I've been rationalizing everything by saying I was just protecting you! I made outrageous remarks and even forgot about it, so of course, I deserved to be hit."
With a voice that had become fully tearful,
"So please, just say you're sorry! I lived a wretched life and barely managed to save you, so if I lose you right in front of my eyes, what does that make me!?"
She was suddenly acting out a drama, but I didn't mock her.
I don't know much about it, but it was probably 100% a mother's heart.
On the other hand, Park Jin-seok had a rebellious face, clearly not wanting to do that at all.
-Uwooooorgh...
-Ugh, uwoooorgh!
However, zombies were swarming in the meantime.
They kept rushing toward the apartment from far away.
Now, the mere baseball bat was only enough to stop them from biting.
He was even panting and backstepping because his stamina was completely drained after a few swings.
『Fuck... fuck...!』
Park Jin-seok was very good at talking tough.
But when the crisis of actually "dying," which he liked to talk about, arrived, his face twisted in despair.
He looked like he was about to piss himself if he relaxed.
As he became weak and couldn't even swing the bat anymore, he made a quick judgment.
『Surrender, I surrender!』
He ran.
He shouted while running quickly toward this side.
『Surrender, I'll surrender, so open this thing quickly!』
"That's not the surrender signal I mentioned."
『What is it then! There's no time for that right now!』
"You have to follow the procedure. Kneel and say, 'I sincerely admit my defeat.'"
『Where is there time for that! They're coming from behind, hurry, please, just open it!』
There's no reason to open it without the procedure.
I just crossed my arms and watched.
Because running a marathon like this and getting caught and dying would also be part of the fun.
However,
"Please, please, I beg you. I'll kneel in advance, so...!"
Woo Min-jeong begged earnestly.
Tears and snot were dripping all over the floor as she begged to save her son.
'Ha....'
Honestly, it was annoying.
It was annoying that I could somewhat understand Woo Min-jeong's feelings.
Even if he's a rascal, he's her son.
If she really only knew her son in this world, Woo Min-jeong's actions could be considered with leniency.
Also, the fact that she had already paid off her dues by getting beaten earlier was bothering me.
Therefore,
"Fine, then come inside and apologize."
Wiiiing!
The automatic door opened just in the nick of time.
Park Jin-seok stumbled in and collapsed on the floor, panting.
The door closed immediately afterward, so the zombies were blocked from entering.
The fire alarm also turned off as if a rain shower had suddenly stopped.
Next, I gave him a moment to catch his breath.
Once his breathing stabilized, since he was already face down in a perfect position, I made my demand immediately.
"Hey, start quickly."
"......"
He stalled for time.
It seemed like he was stalling because it was humiliating,
"Heh heh... you moron."
"?"
"Acting all tough. You loser. Goodbye!"
Raising his head, what he pointed at me was—a gun.
Not a baseball bat, but a gun.
It seems he could create guns too.
It was a hidden card he had saved to kill me.
A blade he had sharpened, pulled out at the decisive moment.
Sreureuk...
"What?!"
But it disappeared.
As soon as he summoned it, it scattered and vanished like grains of sand, as if turning into powder.
"Th-this, what is this?"
"I knew you'd do that, you piece of trash."
I laughed.
I mocked him to the fullest.
Inside the fortified area, no one but me can use skills.
The skills of anyone invited inside are neutralized.
I had read it over and over.
I had anticipated how this bastard would act and set a trap.
Therefore,
Puk!
"Keouk!"
I immediately started hand-to-hand combat.
A conversation between men that has continued since primitive times, by punching him in the gut.
'Ah, this feels so fucking good♥'
I was fucking happy.
I almost got an erection for a second.
Just in case this poser had a 0.000001% chance of coming to his senses.
I was nervous about what I would do if he actually apologized.
Because then it could have ended with that.
Because it would have been a shame if he really got bitten and died by a zombie.
"Thanks, Jin-seok-ah. For making sure the time I endured wasn't in vain."
"Keouk, heu-eok... wait, wait..."
"Shall we go up to your place and have a long talk?"
I'm transporting one bully, fresh from the source.
Time to give him a true education with my own hands.
