Absolute Dweller

Chapter 161

It took five full days for the ice that had blanketed all of Seoul to melt to an acceptable level.

Despite the scorching summer weather, vast amounts of snow and ice still remained in shaded areas.

Kang Buk-gu’s leader, Lee Kanghyun.

Right now, he was on his way to meet Kim Jaehyun.

"I can’t protect everyone with my strength alone."

To be honest, he had been a little overconfident.@@@@

He had successfully hunted boss-tier monsters around Gangbuk-gu, establishing his own territory and securing a safe zone for tens of thousands of people.

His strength had attracted competent allies, and they were indeed highly capable.

They had scavenged food from abandoned marts and houses, set up base camps near Jungnangcheon for clean water, and led the survivors with textbook survival tactics.

But in the end, there was a limit.

"Maybe I should’ve accepted the offer back then. If I had..."

At the very least...

This tragedy wouldn’t have happened.

Twenty-six people had died.

Most of them were the elderly and the young—those least capable of enduring the cold.

"I was powerless."

He had sensed it when the freezing storm was at its worst.

That chilling sensation overhead, the monstrous presence lurking in the sky.

"I couldn’t do anything."

He had always prided himself on his ability to hunt monsters.
