The Myongjin Shelter was designed with three rectangular-shaped main bases in the center, with twenty buildings sparsely located on the outside surrounding the main bases like a circle.

Of course, the three main bases and the twenty buildings on the outside had a considerable distance between them to allow tens of thousands of people to stay there for a long time. They needed enough space to raise cattle, pigs, chickens, etc., as well as farming for self-sufficiency. And they also needed a space to enjoy outdoor life because living only inside the building would cause various mental problems.

The ​​Myeongjin Shelter has been safe so far.

Of course, it didn't mean that monsters didn't appear at all. Most recently, they appeared at my brother's wedding. However, there has not been any damage at all so far because either I or the special forces of the shelter who had raised their reality actualization rate killed them.

While we were having the small party yesterday, I told everyone there that I would gradually get rid of all the monsters that would appear not only inside the shelter but also in its vicinity.

It was good that they installed a barrier dividing the inside and the outside of the shelter for efficient defense against monsters, but I felt that it was frustrating for us to stay only inside the shelter due to fearing the monsters. When I expressed my opinion, not only my father, but also Director Sok, head of the Strategy Department of the Myongjin Guild, didn't object.

Rather they welcomed my idea with open hands because even if we had no need to take actions outside the Myongjin Shelter right now, it's definitely not a bad thing to expand the area under Myongjin's jurisdiction.

"I'll go with you too!"

Somebody shouted behind me. It was my sister.

"Gosh…"

My mother immediately opened her mouth to try to stop her, but she didn't manage to finish her words.

My sister said confidently, "Mom, don't worry! It was me who reached level 1200 first! I also obtained 40,000 coins a while ago, even though Juyoung helped me."

It was true that she reached level 1200 first among my family members.

Besides, she obtained as many as 40000 coins as the reward of the level 1200 regular quest.

So my mother stopped trying to persuade her. And my father nodded slightly, giving her the greenlight.

Anyway, we continued to eat lunch while talking about this and that.

At the vacant lot in front of the main base of the Myongjin Shelter a little later.

"Reporting that all 550 members of the security guard are ready."

"Reporting that all 150 members of the special force are ready."

To be honest, I could carry out the job alone without any problem, and I intended to.

But not only my father, but also Director Sok expanded the reconnaissance team.

They argued that we needed to show to the outside world that we could get rid of the monsters easily at any time to prove that we were not stuck in this remote shelter, pressured by the monsters.

Of course, I didn't really object to their argument.

Some things we had to deal with privately, but others were better dealt with publicly, such as the slaughter of the monsters.

So, I stopped pondering about it and ordered,"Okay. We'll be leaving in exactly 10 minutes. Until then, take a break."

"Understood!"

"Yes, sir!"

No one objected to me leading this reconnaissance team of 700 as its commander.

So, with the intense attention of the shelter residents focused on us, I finished inspecting their preparations and soon started moving with them.

Although I and many of the special forces didn't need transportation, I prepared some military trucks and modified vehicles for the 550 security guards members.

Between Myongjin Shelter Building 6 and Building 7 at the 3 o'clock position.

We could move quickly using vehicles because all the roads starting from the main bases had been well paved.

When we got closer to Building 6 and Building 7, which could be called the entrance gates of the Myongjin Shelter, we started hearing a loud commotion.

"Please let me in!"

"I will do anything!!"

"I don't need three meals a day. Just one is enough. So, please.."

"I'm fine, but please let my child in to the Myongjin Shelter. Please!"

"..."

They were refugees. At the entrance of the Myongjin Shelter, there were many people who could only be regarded as typical refugees. They were making all sorts of requests and pleas to those on security duty inside the shelter.

Of course, I understood their situation.

No matter how much I was absorbed into achieving level 1200 and playing 'Revival Legend', I didn't turn a blind eye to their miserable situation.

In particular, the rumors spread widely that because of me, the Myongjin Shelter was possibly the safest place not only in Korea but also the rest of the world.

At that moment, Director Sok said, "Juyoung…"

"No!"

It seems that Director Sok, who accompanied me as the chief of the special force, thought I felt guilty or burdened by their miserable pleas.

But I knew that if we accepted them, dozens or hundreds of times as many people would come in droves even in the next few hours and cause a great commotion to be let in. As they say, the desire to survive is far stronger than any other human desire

So I shouted calmly without expressing my feelings.

"Open the way!"

Obviously, I understood the feelings of those parents who were desperate to take care of their children. However, those living in the Myongjin Shelter were more important than them.

Moreover, no matter how large the Myongjin Shelter was, there was clearly a limit to how many people it could sustain.

So this was my second best option.

Even if I could not allow them to enter the Myongjin Shelter, I intended to make the area around the Myongjin Shelter safe for them. I decided that was the best action I could take right now.

At that moment, my sister snuggled up to me and said quietly, "Don't worry too much."

"Don't worry, sis. I don't want to be a hero either. I have no intention of sacrificing myself for the sake of mankind. My top priority is my family and those living inside the shelter here."

"Really? I'm glad to hear that! Let me tell you something. We're trying our best to accept the children secretly after contacting their parents. And they have no choice but to keep it to themselves. We're not accepting them only with good intentions. We are also accepting them out of necessity. However..."

"That's enough."

In my opinion, the Myongjin Shelter was not necessarily a place full of dreams and hopes, nor was it a place which crushed those hopes and dreams.

But I thought it was a good enough place in this chaotic world.

So, I interrupted my sister who was trying to explain more to me, then went out of the gate through the opening the security guards made for us, for I just wanted to do what I was expected to do.
