TL: Hanguk

The insecticide developed by Gagel was highly effective. Just two days after the drones had sprayed the insecticide on a massive scale, reports came in from across Africa that the locusts had been almost eradicated.

The result was such a success that it could be called a triumph. As the locusts were rapidly exterminated, the leaders of various countries personally called Watson, the director of Gagel’s African business division, to express their gratitude.

However, five days after spraying the insecticide, other reports began to come in. The number of locusts was increasing again.

Watson thought that perhaps the amount of insecticide sprayed was insufficient, so he ordered another round of spraying the affected areas with the same amount as the first time, but this time, there was no effect.

Worse, reports came in that the number of locusts had actually increased, as if the insecticide had had a reverse effect. The locusts were indiscriminately attacking and devouring everything in sight, including people and animals.

As a result, Watson was receiving tremendous protests from African governments, accusing the insecticide of creating a new mutation.

“How do we handle this?”

Incredibly, it was clear that the locusts had developed resistance to the insecticide in such a short time.

While Watson was racking his brain over this vexing issue,

Thump.

There was a noise at the office window.

“Did a bird hit the window?”

Watson’s office was on the top floor of a 50m building, with three sides made of glass windows. Occasionally, a passing bird would fail to see the window and collide with it.

Just as Watson was about to refocus on his work,

Thump. Thump.

Thump. Thump.

The noise came from the window again.

“What’s going on?!”

Growing alarmed by the increasing noise, Watson turned his head towards the window,

“Huh?!”

His eyes were met with a sky filled with birds, and following the birds were swarms of locusts.

“What… What is all this?!”

While Watson was astonished and confused,

Thump. Thump. Thump.

Birds were rushing towards the window, heedless of whether they would break their heads.

‘Could it be?!’

Watson recalled the report that the locusts were consuming people and animals.

Meanwhile,

Crack.

Crack. Crack.

The glass started to crack under the onslaught of the birds.

‘I need to escape!’

Watson hurriedly ran towards the elevator,

Crash.

Shatter. Shatter.

Unable to withstand the birds’ assault, the glass broke, and birds and locusts poured into the room, engulfing Watson.

“Aaagh! Help me!”

Lagos, Nigeria suffered significant damage from the locusts’ invasion.

Thump.

“Ugh!”

Cuengi pressed down on Sejun’s chest with his front paw to prevent him from getting up.

[Don’t go anywhere, Dad…]

Cuengi, who wanted to sleep more with his father, pushed down on Sejun’s chest, talking in his sleep.

“Um… should I lie down a little longer?”

Since Cuengi wanted to lie down together, Sejun decided to stay in bed a little longer. It definitely wasn’t because he couldn’t lift Cuengi’s front paw.

Though he lay down, sleep didn’t come. So, Sejun looked over the power he had obtained yesterday and the talent that had evolved.
