Various looks of concern met on my peers' faces, perhaps they also were trying to figure out what sponsor to pick.
[Sponsor Selection]

1. The Dog Who Threw Himself into the Flames
2. Victorious Lion Heart
I contemplated on my choices for what seemed like an eternity. The first option, Dog Who Threw Himself into the Flames doesn't seem like a very good constellation. How could someone with a name like that defend me from inevitable confrontations? I shifted my gaze over to the 'Victorious Lion Heart'. I only had two options, but this seemed to be the better of the two. Although it sounded powerful, what victorious person would boast about their power? After battling my conscience, I finally settled on a choice.
[Sponsor Selection has ended.]
I took a deep breath as I watched the messages floating in the air.
[The Constellation 'Victorious Lion Heart' is displeased at your choice.]
[The Constellation 'The Dog Who Threw Himself into The Flames' is cursing your choice.]
I guess this was to be expected.
[Due to the death of character 'Caission Grey', two constellations show a faint hostility towards you.]
Caission Grey..? Oh, that's most likely the man I killed. Two constellations disliking me at this moment in time would most definitely not benefit me in the long run. Especially with my decision.
[You haven't selected a sponsor.]
This may be a shocking choice but I didn't think my odds were so good right now. I thought there would be another chance and my guess was confirmed when the dokkaebi appeared again.
[Haha, is this true…isn't there one interesting choice? Well, yes. There will be another chance. Now that everyone has finished the selection, rest for a while. I have to go prepare the next scenario. I'll see you in 10 minutes!]

And with that, the dokkaebi vanished.
All four of us gathered into the centre, if we wanted any chance of survival we all should surely cooperate. It was Thomas first who spoke.
"So.. Since we've all been launched into this possibly never ending dystopia, shouldn't it be wise to gather food?"
The remaining three of us were hit with a sense of realisation and started scavenging for food in duos, I of course with Mia. Whilst we were scavenging for food, I decided to make conversation.
"I'm honestly really surprised that you survived. How did you anyway?"
Mia Becker glanced at me then looked away swiftly with great embarrassment.
"I...Uh...There was a severely injured woman by the front desk and I.." She replied with a slightly uncertain tone.
I saw that she was uncomfortable and hand motioned her to drop the topic and brought up something else.
"So what skill do you have?"
She seemed to ponder for a second before answering.
"Skill? I don't think I have any.. At this moment anyway."
I nodded before swiping the remaining food into the last carrier bag. It seemed the ten minutes were over and a new message appeared.
[The second scenario has arrived!]
[Second Scenario – Escape]
Category: Sub
Difficulty: E
Clear Conditions: Defeat the demonic people and enter Derlith Station.
Time Limit: 20 minutes.
Compensation: 200 coins.
Failure: ???
Demonic people? Mia Becker and I gazed at each other for a moment before sprinting back to the center. During our run, we could see weird, menacing purple aura emitting from the corpses. Are we really going to fight these things? Do zombies even die? I shook off my worries for the better of the situation and reached the center. In the distance I could see Thomas and Leo approaching slowly. It appears that the best choice scenario would be to reach Derlith Station as quickly as possible.

"Everybody arm yourself with weapons if you haven't already!" Thomas shouted. "There's no way we'll beat them right now so don't engage in combat!"
I glanced at Mia and she was grabbing a steel pan. Surprisingly, she was quite observant and quick-witted. Perhaps she'll be a good companion, I mean I'm pretty sure it's suicide to tackle the scenarios myself. Since Leo was docile and didn't want to take part in the violence, we brought to him the carrier bags containing variety of foods. At this point, we could see the reviving corpses slowly tread toward us.
"Kuweeeoooh." They all exclaimed in unison.
"Now that's our cue to leave." Thomas spoke hurriedly and kicked the door open, we all broke into a sprint and into a new world that we had not known before.
