My Second Life in Another World

'Am I missing something here?' Dok-ja wondered as he heard a voice.

"It might be because Dok-ja doesn't know about what happened after he was dropped off the bridge," Queresha said while looking at the other as a look of realization dawned on their faces.

'I don't know what Queresha-ssi is talking about but her voice seems a bit colder than before,' Dok-ja didn't know the reason for two things now.

"It happened after you were thrown off the bridge…." Dok-ja was shocked just after hearing the first words and it only grew as he heard what happened after that.

"I thought it wouldn't be good to let you remember such a thing, I am sorry if it came off as rude," Anyone could see that Hyun-sung's actions were genuine here. Even Dok-ja felt a bit overwhelmed since the guy was just too kind.

Hyun-sung, Hee-won, and Nam-woon were the ones he met first, Hyun-sung didn't tell him about what happened, which made him think that nothing of significance took place during his absence.

Hee-won didn't butt in after seeing Hyun-sung avoiding the topic and Nam-woon simply didn't care enough to keep Dok-ja up to speed with everything.

'So much information at once, but it is better than being in the dark, since it could safe me from awkward situations like the one before,' Dok-ja made several conclusions based on the information he got. First off, Haru has a skill like his own which can block the sage's eye from reading his profile. Sage's eye was the highest grade detection skill in the world of TWSA, you cant thwart it with a simple mental barrier.

So, this means that Dok-ja's chances of reading Haru's status had lessened by a lot. The second is, Haru's skill is like the worst possible match-up Jung-hyeok can ever have.

'It is a skill that shows people what they fear the most, For Pil-du it was his stigma deactivating leaving him vulnerable, And I am sure Jung-hyeok also saw something that caused his current reaction,' Dok-ja seemed to have come to his conclusion about this and it was bad since he himself didn't have any defense against this skill. of course he doesn't see nightmares but his theory is that he isn't the target for the skill.

"Now with that out of the way we should move onto the main topic, we do not know anything about the upcoming scenario but the safe zones are going to be a big part of that," Haru moved the conversation forward since Dok-ja seemed to have gotten his answer.

"That is the main problem now," Hee-won's face had an expression that was hard to explain.

"The safe zones aren't enough for the people here," Hyun-sung had also noted this himself.

"It can't be said as it simply isn't enough, There are nearly 458 people in the station counting everyone here and the number the safe zones can hold is 216," Alea offered the information she had gathered.

"Then more than 50% of the people aren't going to survive," Hee-won rubbed her forehead in vexation.

"We…still don't know if that is true," Sang-ah didn't want the group's morale to come down by a situation that hasn't happened.

"Being optimistic isn't really a good choice right now, thinking the worse is the best course of action. I won't be surprised if the number of Safe zones gets reduced after the scenario starts furthering the casualties," Queresha wasn't one to mince her words and…

'Her speculation is correct, in a world like TWSA it is always better to work with the worst possible scenario in mind,' Even though Dok-ja felt a little bad for Sang-ah since she looked at the table after hearing Queresha and couldn't say anything in return, but he couldn't agree more with the latter's words.

"We don't know much about what we will be facing," Haru mused while the others did the same, because depending on the strength of what they face is an important factor if they want to try saving others.

"Well, I guess we can stop this for now and gather our thoughts before talking further," Haru said as it looked like they weren't making any headway.

And the thing they'll face will either be Monsters or other people or in the worst case both. This was of course known by everyone without anyone saying it but still no one mentioned it.

The reason for this is, no one wanted to say a thing, because if they tell one the others will be mentioned whether they like it or not, as they wouldn't be able to argue against it.

"Also Dok-ja, just tell me when you feel like doing it," Haru looked straight at Dok-ja much to his surprise.

"W-What?" Dok-ja didn't understand what Haru was talking about since there were too many things he hadn't said.

"You don't need to hide it Dok-ja we can see it," Hee-won shook her head looking at Dok-ja being surprised that he was caught.

'Did they catch me? Have I been the little lamb inside the lion's den this whole time?' Dok-ja felt a chill run down his spine when he saw everyone nodding; even Nam-woon seemed to have caught him. He was beyond scared at this point.

"Yeah, no need to suppress it, if you ever feel like punching that guy just do it," Haru said with a smile.

"...What?" Dok-ja was dumbfounded by the words he had heard.

"I know, I know, you might be scared thinking 'Jung-hyeok will kill me, he is insane', But if you feel like doing it, go for it and leave the rest to me," Haru smiled brightly giving Dok-ja a thumbs-up.

"Count me in," Hee-won joined in.

"I suggest you do it when Haru is around," Queresha suggested but she was on board with the idea, Alea and Jin-ah also showed their agreement just for the heck of it.

"Me too Hyung," Gil-young seemed the most into it.

Sang-ah and Hyun-sung could only shake their head in dismay at everyone but would also side with Dok-ja if he did something of the sort.

'These guys...…Are angels,' Dok-ja nearly shed a tear from the support he got from everyone, even though he was scared for his life some time ago.

After the short talk finished, everyone did their own thing, Haru, Hyun-sung, Nam-woon, and Gil-young were sitting down silently thinking about stuff.

I will leave their thoughts to your imagination.

Sang-ah, Hee-won, Queresha, Jin-ah, and Alea were all sitting down and talking about things that only they knew. They would occasionally look at others but they were mostly talking between themselves.

I also leave what they are talking about to your imagination.

And lastly, Dok-ja slipped out of the area and made his way towards Jung-hyeok's area which was fully silent unlike their side where many people were sitting around with a tense atmosphere, but no one was at each other's throats like the lower floor.

'This is the only place left on this floor,' Dok-ja thought as he went towards the ticket counter and there he found him staring at him with...

[Character 'Yu Jung-hyeok' is a little disappointed.]

'What the hell?' Dok-ja's eyes twitched a little but he still went up to Jung-hyeok ignoring Ji-hye's disdainful look.

Dok-ja looked at Jung-hyeok's character profile first since it was important.

'Monstrous as always, But there is something wrong with his sage's eye skill,' Dok-ja saw that 'Sage's eye' has lost a level and his mental barrier skill was uped by one.

The Jung-hyeok right now is way stronger than he should be in the third round at this point of the story. But Dok-ja couldn't think about the reason and whatnot later.

"Why are you letting the landlord coalition do whatever they want?" Dok-ja thought that Jung-hyeok should've taken them out just like he was supposed to do so with in-ho's group at Geum-ho. But he hadn't done anything about the two, which was confusing to Dok-ja.

"Are you just a tag-along in that group?" Jung-hyeok looked at Dok-ja with displeasure clear on his face.
