YM778.TV Chapter 101
As Seo Dawon looked down at me, Kim Olim’s piercing gaze followed; Jung Garam, who was facing Kim Olim, also turned his head.
“W-wait a minute……” First, I tried to escape from Seo Dawon’s embrace. It was too embarrassing to continue to lay around, and Kim Olim’s stare felt unusual.
At first, I had no idea why she was so hostile towards me. However, I finally understood when I saw her expression as she saw Seo Dawon supporting my weight. ‘J-just as I thought…There’s no other reason that makes sense; Kim Olim must like Seo Dawon…..!’
Looking between Seo Dawon’s sparkling face and Kim Olim’s cool expression, I swallowed my pooling spit.
This hypothesis was the only plausible explanation; there was no way to explain her hostility. Therefore, I should maintain some distance from the Mage to avoid further hatred.
“Are you going to be alright?” he said.
“Mhm….” So, I pushed Seo Dawon away and stood up, nodding timidly.
Kim Olim’s fierce eyes followed me, but, as expected, she seemed to stop caring about me as I separated from his arms. Then with an expression laden with resentment and other complex emotions, she continued, staring at her old guild master, “I feel like my trust in you was betrayed. I knew you had a fanatical obsession with your ‘scenario,’ but at the very least I thought you wouldn’t cross the line…”
“……”
“……”
However the resentful words that came out of her mouth told a different story I could barely understand. Jung Garam, at those words, closed his mouth momentarily. Seo Dawon had no change in expression, but, by not answering, the atmosphere coldly settled in the room.
‘Seo Dawon and Scenario……? What are they talking about?’ I simply watched the three of them, inwardly hiding my bewildered thoughts.
Instead of explaining more about the situation, Kim Olim released a loud, deep sigh and began piercing me with her tingling gaze yet again. “Have you fallen for those evil attribute (惡) bastards’ sweet nothings?” She asked Seo Dawon, reproachfully. She continued to stare at me; I couldn’t understand the culprit of her anger, so I continued to withstand her sharp barbs.
I felt sorry for myself, but Jung Garam, who had been standing docilely, stepped up to defend me. “Noona, he’s only at level 80 now…How could a low-level guy like that sway us?”
“As expected, those of *that* attribute are bound to be lazy.”
“No, that’s not it. He’s just cooperating with us, not trying to fulfill some evil goals through our power.”
“He hasn’t revealed his true colors yet?”
“Haaah…..”
However, no matter what Jung Garam said, Kim Olim maintained her steely attitude and would not relax her high-handed expression.
Seo Dawon, watching their verbal battle from behind, shook his head and spoke to me with a grin, “Holy attribute. They tend to be like that, especially those that enter holy congregations or enter into professions that serve a God.”
“Huh?”
“Basically, it’s a fundamental repulsion or hostility against those with evil attributes. Particularly, they tend to hold preconceptions against classes, skills, or monsters that went against the ‘natural order.\'”
“If prejudice is always proven true, then it’s not prejudice. It’s a fact.” Kim Olim abruptly cut in during the middle of our conversation.
No way, then…Kim Olim is holding me to a certain standard just because I’m a Necromancer who deals with the undead?
I couldn’t suppress my bewilderment–she still looked confident in her words. Looking at her overbearing face, I couldn’t help but ask, “Then…How are you a guild member alongside Jung Garam!?”
After all, Jung Garam’s class is an Assassin! 1
Kim Olim replied, though, without changing her stance, “Jung Garam attended worship with me every weekend. He’s also the type to pray for repentance diligently…..”
Does that even make sense?!
In addition, while Kim Olim spoke seriously, Jung Garam giggled and stuck his tongue out at me. And then, he shrugged his shoulders… “Look at my face. Does this look like the face of someone who can do wrong?” He smiled, chin raised high.
I was furious, but I was struck temporarily speechless. Because Jung Garam was right about his pretty face.
Damn it!! This standard of good and evil is so biased! Besides, ‘evil’ attribute is just a classification used for abilities or classes in the hub; it makes no sense to rip into me as if you desire my eradication.
I wanted to beat my chest at the unfairness of it all but suddenly discovered the blinking status message out of the corner of my eyes.
When I pressed it, the system alerted [New Servant ‘Kim Olim’ was added] along with the notification that my level had increased.

It was a servant’s status window, similar to what I had seen with Seo Dawon and Jung Garam.
However, while those two’s stat window only instilled a sense of admiration within me, Kim Olim’s was nerve-wracking.
Especially the [Demon among Demons] title… I mean, since it’s tagged as a ‘Scenario,’ she wouldn’t have killed evil-attribute Users, but she must have received that title by killing an incredible amount of evil-attribute enemies/NPCs in a dungeon…
But the real problem is that such a person has now become something similar to an undead and has been tied to me–a Necromancer.
Only then did I understand why she threatened me, calling me Necromancer, from the very beginning of our interaction. Of course, her innate resentment carried within the deepest pits of her heart would not completely vanish.
I didn’t dishonestly sway Seo Dawon into contract, in the first place, and Jung Garam proactively joined hands with me for the sake of revenge! But, she misunderstood and thought I approached the two with a contract for some nefarious intent?
But what most frustrated me was that, no matter what I said, Kim Olim didn’t seem to trust me since/because I was an evil-attribute User.
TL: Kim Olim is a dogmatic person, but she’s not unkind~ Before everyone is shocked, haha, I felt that I should probably preface her personality with some caveats of ‘wait until she’s warmed up to our necromancer’ >.<
But, this does tell us a lot about what goes into the class selection for you when you first awaken as a User. MC probably would never have gotten ‘Priest,’ as it may fundamentally go against his values. It also showcases how the differences in morality may lead to special classes. The MC, as a necromancer, has never done much necromancer-like things before meeting Red Lotus, so he couldn’t quite develop. The game given ‘attribute’ might also shed new light on the hostility between Bae Jaemin and Jung Garam.
