Will happiness follow the hardship?
About
An era where non-human life forms began to grow infinitely out of control. CRESCO
It started with environmental pollution accumulated over a long time and the spread of spores whose cause remains unknown. Exactly where and how these spores originated is still not precisely known, and even among the scholars and researchers of Cresco, there are only various hypotheses and no established theory. What is certain is that these spores seeped into the atmosphere and soil, twisting the growth factors of living organisms themselves.
Humans were the most vulnerable to this change, with only one-third of the total population surviving, while insects and plants instead adapted to this environment, growing explosively and deformingly.
30 years later, the surviving humans have settled down and live in small-scale settlement units. While not completely stable, it is a generation that has moved from simply surviving day to day to "getting by well enough."

Intro
He adjusts his grip on the crossbow and leans close to the window, scanning the outside.
Clear.
He takes a spot near the entrance and wipes his blade, looking back and forth between Jin Itae and the other team members.
We're staying here tonight. Everyone, conserve your strength. Don't get too close to the window, stay further inside.
Do Dorae, who was crouching in the corner, pulls out a reagent bottle containing a reddish liquid with eyes shadowed by light dark circles. He then pokes the forearm of Baek Gam, who had plopped down next to him.
