Many eyes were turned to Lee Junho who was proudly soaking in all the attention.
Kim Seojin could only watch how desperate these people acted. There was not a single person who was acting sane here.
All of them had greed in their eyes as they asked for Lee Junho to team up with them.
Kim Seojin wanted to ask Lee Junho more about this world and the things about class, but he could see that Lee Junho was the star of this place now.
Kim Seojin stood up and left to check the surroundings himself. If possible, he wanted to find another person who could answer him.
As far as his eyes could see, he was able to see humans. Some were in groups while the rest were standing alone, not looking like they wanted to be disturbed.
There was one person who looked like he was sleeping as well.
"When I was sleeping, so many people were taunting me, but with him, no one even dared to pay him attention. Just who is that guy?"
Kim Seojin was quite curious about the identity of the person.
"Young man, you look lost. Do you need help?"
When Seojin was paying attention to the man who was sleeping, he heard someone call out to him.
It was a squeaky voice that didn't sound like a human's voice. He turned around and saw a small, fluffy squirrel looking up at him with a sharp gaze.
The Squirrel was sitting on a wooden box, but even then she looked extremely small.
"Is there anyone here?"
Kim Seojin looked around, wondering who had spoken. Even in his dreams, he didn't think it was the squirrel talking to him.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
"You idiot, why are you looking around? Can't you see my great self?"
This time, Kim Seojin clearly saw the squirrel's mouth move when the voice came.
"Huh, you can speak? A talking squirrel?"
"Your mother is a talking squirrel! I am the guide of the Tutorial Stage!"
"A Guide? Why are you alone here then?"
A guide should be an important position. So why was this squirrel sitting alone? Why didn't anyone else pay attention? Kim Seojin had a lot of questions.
"Since all these brats come here after being informed in advance, no one uses my services anymore. I have been so bored. The people of the first batch were so fun."
"You are saying that you are here to answer people's questions?"
"You call them people, but in my eyes, you all are just puppets for their entertainment."
"Anyway, you can say, I'm here to inform people about the Tutorial that they might need. But after the first few batches, no one asks for my help."
"Why not?"
Kim Seojin sat in front of the wooden box so he could hear the squirrel clearly.
"Do you really need to ask?" The Squirrel rolled her eyes.
Kim Seojin thought back to the first words he had heard when he woke up. People were asking if he wasn't informed when he came here.
"Is it because everyone who is sent here has already been informed about the things you're here for?"
"That's right. But you are the only one who has been walking around like an idiot. I suppose you don't know anything?"
"Was that obvious? But I do need your help. There is so much I don't know about this place."
"Hahaha, of course." The squirrel proudly laughed. "Finally there is someone who needs my help. Ask me anything, brat. I will answer you!'
Kim Seojin could see that the squirrel looked really happy. Although she was calling him names, she was happy that someone needed her help.
With the guide, he truly felt like he was blessed. This was exactly what he needed.
"What is a Class? And what is the Tutorial? Is this still earth? What year is it? And what was that about a Sacrifice?"
One after another, he asked many questions in his mind. And these were still just a small number of the total questions he had.
"Ask one at a time!" The squirrel scolded. "It looks like you truly don't know anything."
"Let me start with the simplest answer. According to Earth's timeline, it should be the year 2375. It's the 300th year anniversary of Earth becoming a part of God's Domain."
"God's Domain? 300 years?"
"You don't know about it either? Have you been living under a rock since your birth?"
Kim Seojin went silent. If he truly came three hundred years in the future, he couldn't tell anyone. He didn't even know who his friend was and who was his enemy here.
At the end of the day, this squirrel could also be a threat to him.
Three hundred years had passed on earth. The earth he remembered was no more. Instead, it was the earth of the future.
Did the rules still exist? Did it even make sense to have rules in the apocalypse? Even if he tried to tell anyone, they were just going to call him crazy.
To protect himself, he came up with a story.
"I did live on a mountain in the middle of nowhere. The only thing I had were a few old history books, but that history ended in 2075. So I don't know what happened after that."
"Strange. Even if you lived under a mountain, you should still have been..." The squirrel rubbed her little paws together. "Whatever, it's not my place to think about it."
"If your history ends in the year 2075, you have truly missed a lot. Year 2075 was truly the end of Earth's independence."
"After that, earth became a part of God's Domain. It became something that, along with hundreds of other worlds, was responsible for the entertainment of Constellations."
"The more entertaining one was, the more they were rewarded by the Constellations. And with the reward, the humans could become stronger."
"At the beginning, the humans were so weak. When turning earth into a God's Domain, the constellations only sent a few weak monsters and meteorites for entertainment, but the humans couldn't resist them either."
"Half the population of Earth disappeared that day. Many Constellations were disappointed by the weakness of humans."
