Seoul Object Story

When the teleportation to the Black Planet ended, I was greeted by a barren, desolate landscape.

‘Not this again…’

Whenever I travel to a completely different space like the Black Planet, I often end up far from the Mini Reaper I intended to reach.

The place I arrived at was a small cliff, and from there, the view of the dying planet, ravaged by the Evolution Fluid, was laid out before me.

Below my feet, the endless sea of Evolution Fluid stretched out, visible beneath the cliff.

The black sea, undulating endlessly like liquid oil, seemed to move slowly, almost as if it were a living creature.

Perhaps due to the malice in the Evolution Fluid, its movement seemed to carry some sort of intent, which made it all the more unsettling.

Looking up, I couldn’t see the sun, or even the sky.

A thick cloud cover, like poisonous gas, completely obscured the heavens, and the light that filtered through was pale and somber.

This light only seemed to emphasize the deathly landscape even more.

Turning my gaze behind me, I saw only a small patch of land, no bigger than a playground.

That too was covered with black, slimy mud contaminated by the Evolution Fluid and the slowly melting remains of buildings.

It was a miniature depiction of the planet melting away under the Evolution Fluid.

The air was thick with the distinctive foul stench of the Evolution Fluid.

The odor, filled with malice, seemed to reach beyond the sense of smell, and no matter how much time passed, I couldn’t get used to it.

In fact, the more I inhaled, the more repulsive it became.

‘I need to hurry, find the kids, and get back to the Seohui Research Institute…’

The foul odor of the Evolution Fluid was rapidly sapping my motivation.

I stretched my senses out in all directions, eager to find the kids.

But as I searched for them, an odd feeling started to creep over me.

‘Wait, didn’t it seem less bad when I came here last time?’
