141-148
Shadowless laughed coldly as Kang-jun drew his sword.
"A foolish choice. Everything you have came from me. Do you think you can beat me?"
Kang-jun simply gazed at him quietly.
"I don't know who you are, but you are deceiving me. You aren't Shadowless. At the very least, Shadowless would not say that to me."
Kang-jun had learnt, from Heaven's Blood Sword Style, not to be afraid of death.
It wasn't about bravado or being daring but cutting off the fear from his heart! Otherwise, he wouldn't have become stronger after overcoming many crises.
It had been possible for Kang-jun to exceed his limits by not giving into fear in extreme situations and cutting down the situation with his sword.
Thus, he wouldn't give into fear now.
Shadowless' Heaven's Blood Sword Style had this spirit!
Therefore, Kang-jun was convinced that the person in front of him wasn't Shadowless.
Even if Shadowless had become Karosio's crony, he would try to persuade Kang-jun otherwise.
Why should he follow the Goddess of Destruction? Why destroy the dimensional system and create a new one?
Of course, giving nonsense reasons was even more ridiculous.
Words about surrendering would absolutely never come out from Shadowless' mouth.
Maybe for others but that was not the case for the creator of Heaven's Blood Sword Style.
"Who are you? Reveal your true identity."
A strong but transparent light flashed in Kang-jun's eyes.
At that moment, Shadowless' body flinched and trembled.
His expression distorted.
"Kukukuk! Huhuhu!"
The voice of a man and the laugh of a woman were mixed together at the same time.
Chu chu chu chu.
At that moment, Shadowless' face distorted and turned into a woman's face.
His body also turned into a woman's.
If the body was exactly divided in half, then the left side was female while the right side was unmistakably a man.
However, the woman who appeared on the left side was more beautiful than anyone Kang-jun had ever seen.
She was an extreme beauty!
Kang-jun knew that one half was a man, but as soon as he saw the woman's eyes, he had a horrifying urge to immediately approach and kiss them.
However, Kang-jun controlled his heart and stared at her.
"Who are you? Are you the Goddess of Destruction?"
Kang-jun asked and Shadowless laughed again.
"You are more reasonable than I thought, but you will eventually give in to me. Even if you transcended the limit, do you think a human can resist a God?"
"Shut up!"
Kang-jun no longer wanted to speak and swung his sword.
Flash!
It was a conventionally swung Heavenly Cut! However, it contained everything that Kang-jun had.
It was the energy of Heavenly Cut that cut off any fear!
There was also the energy of chaos in it.
Flash! Flash flash!
That's right. It wasn't just one. Thousands of Heavenly Cuts emerged at the same time. There were also other changes.
This was created by Kang-jun.
There was no need for a name as it spread in a different way every time.
If he had to name it, it would be called Heavenly Blood Thousand Flow!
One ray of light turned into countless rays and rushed to Shadowless.
Pa pa pa pa!
Shadowless' complexion suddenly changed. He blocked it swiftly with his sword.
Kw.a.n.g! Kwaang! Kuaaaang!
There was a clash between two swords! It was a clash of chaos and chaos!
However, Kang-jun stayed still while Shadowless was pushed back. His whole body was a wreck.
Kang-jun sneered.
It was as he had expected. This person wasn't the real Shadowless.
Their chaos power was in an incoherent state and couldn't prevent Kang-jun's attacks that contained true chaos power.
Duk! Duduk!
Within a short time, Shadowless' body had been sliced into countless pieces.
Kang-jun's attacks swept over his entire body.
However, the separated body parts soon returned to their original condition.
At the same time, Shadowless' eyes turned black.
The man and the woman, their two different eyes turned black at the same time and it was truly creepy.
"It is useless. You won't be able to win against me. Now, I will make you feel how helpless you are."
At the end of those words, the woman's face disappeared from Shadowless. However, his two eyes still remained black.
Shadowless looked like a mannequin to Kang-jun. He opened his mouth mechanically and said,
"You still don't know what the true power of chaos is. This is the power of chaos."
A gigantic glow started to floor toward Kang-jun.
Flash---!
It was a brilliant storm of light.
A storm of light flooded the dark space like the sun!
Kang-jun felt like his body would melt if he was. .h.i.t by that storm.
What the h.e.l.l was it?
A form of attack that he had never seen before!
Was it like the flow of energy when the
Advertisement
Big Bang exploded to form the universe?
His struggle during the process of becoming a chaos being was nothing compared to this.
If Kang-jun could use it, he would have once again exceeded his limits...
Going beyond the limit of the wall that blocked him!
'How great.'
At that moment, Kang-jun forgot the situation he was in.
He had been waiting eagerly for this moment.
'That is possible...'
Kang-jun's eyes shone as he gazed at the mysterious flow of light.
It seemed as though time stopped, causing the movement of the brilliant light to halt. Then time started flowing slightly as the brilliance moved slowly...
And Kang-jun focused on this flow.
If he could find out what it was, then he didn't care if he died.
Was it this desire that slowed time? It was momentary, but it felt like a long time had passed in his head.
In the meantime, the flow that he could see had passed.
As he recreated it in his head, Kang-jun observed the storm of brilliance like he was a separate third person.
He didn't know how it was possible.
The harmony caused by his will that went beyond death.
A faint smile formed on Kang-jun's face as the brilliant light headed toward him no longer felt threatening.
Flash---!
The storm passed through Kang-jun.
However, Kang-jun didn't receive any damage like he was just a shadow was standing there.
Shadowless' face was shocked.
In the meantime, the woman had appeared on half of him again.
She had the same look on her face as she stared at Kang-jun.
The woman's face distorted with shock, anger and astonishment while the man's changed to one of deep sadness and agony.
It was temporary, but Kang-jun didn't miss it.
'There is something.'
Kang-jun realized that there were two egos within Shadowless. One was his original self while the other was the woman.
"Huhuhut! Nice. You become more desirable the more I see you, but it can't be helped if you won't become mine. Now, I'm going to destroy everything of yours. You will regret how silly you were to think you could go against me."
The woman said with an eerie eye from the left side of Shadowless.
"Before that, you should die!"
Kang-jun brandished his sword.
Flash---!
At that moment, the flash from his sword melted half of Shadowless.
Exactly half!
The remaining half was still alive.
However, he started to disperse slowly after a short period of time.
At that moment...
The male half bowed toward Kang-jun and declared,
"Thank you. It has been a while, but I regained my spirit."
His voice was weak, but dignified. Kang-jun sensed that this was the real Shadowless.
However, he didn't ask anything.
Shadowless couldn't say much. He was on the verge of disappearing, so he had to say as much as possible.
"...You are not what I chose. The words from the Goddess of Ruin about conveying you the power of Hwanmong aren't true. I did invent Heaven's Blood Sword Style but..."
Indeed. Shadowless' words had been a trick designed to make Kang-jun give up.
"From now on, you will be fighting with demonic Gods. However, if you are as strong as you are now, you won't be defeated so easily. Just watch out for Karosio, the Goddess of Destruction, especially her seduction. I fell for her seduction and lost everything. No matter how strong you become, don't forget that you can lose everything in a moment if you aren't alert."
Shadowless gazed at Kang-jun with warm eyes.
"Finally, thank you for freeing me. With my death, the Heaven's Blood Sword will be yours..."
After those words, he literally scattered into dust.
[Your level limit has risen to Lv400.]

'Enlightenment seems to break the level limit.'
As soon as he understood Shadowless' sword and broke it, Kang-jun's level limit that had been at 'MAX' was also increased.
At the same time, his level rose.
Although he was in a dissonant state after being tempted by the Goddess of Destruction, Shadowless was still a chaos being.
Moreover, he was a person who had been one step higher than Kang-jun.
Kang-jun didn't know how, but Shadowless had temporarily showed his original ability.
It was supposed to be a crisis situation for Kang-jun, but he used it to break through his limits.
He gained a huge 10 levels.
Levels below Lv300 didn't significantly affect his combat strength. It was because most of Kang-jun's power was from transcendence or chaos.
However, he could now feel the difference as his level rose.
It wasn't due to his stats or health but rather, his combat capabilities rose significantly with every level. Therefore, it was clear from now on that he would be able to feel every increase in level.
However, Kang-jun was feeling somewhat bittersweet. This was because he gained the experience from killing his teacher.
'It was due to the temptation of the Goddess. '
Shadowless had been overcome by the temptation of the Goddess, not by this battle.
The charm of the Goddess of Destruction was so enormous that she distracted the will of chaos.
There was no guarantee that Kang-jun wouldn't fall for it as well.
It was because he almost lost his reason after seeing just half of her appearance.
What if he saw all of her?
Would he be able to survive the temptation?
'I have to be careful."
Shadowless' words to be vigilant echoed in his ears.
Chapter 143: Heaven's Blood Sword (2)
[The Chaos Knowledge Script (Chaos) has been acquired.]
[The Heaven's Blood Sword (Chaos) has been acquired.
Meanwhile, items were also dropped.
Shadowless had left them behind when he died.
Both were chaos items at one step higher than transcendence.
[Chaos Knowledge Script]
-Rating: Chaos
-The Chaos Knowledge Script is an object possessed by chaos beings.
-If you collect three Chaos Knowledge Scripts, you can get a glimpse of a new world.
The Chaos Knowledge Script looked like a broken blade. A mysterious energy could be felt from it.
One alone had no function, but he would be able to glimpse a new state if he gathered two more.
Kang-jun stored it in his space.
[Heaven's Blood Sword]
-Rating: Chaos
-A sword that Shadowless created by refining chaos power. Only chaos items can be mounted on it.
-The power of Heaven's Blood Sword Style will be enhanced when used with this sword.
-Capable of attacks that ignore the target's defense.
-Absorbs chaos power when attacking.
-Power Jewel that can be mounted 0/2
-Level restriction of 305.
A sword that Shadowless created...
He given it to Kang-jun despite Kang-jun being the one that killed him.
It had a level restriction of 305.
If he hadn't raised the level limit today, it would have been impossible for him to use it.
Chuoot!
He got a feeling of unprecedented power from the moment he held the sword!
It condensed Kang-jun's chaos power.
He didn't need to use the energy separately as he could just swing the sword and it would deal a critical attack that ignored defense.
It would also amplify the damage of Heaven's Blood Sword Style.
In addition to that, he could absorb chaos power when striking the opponent, so he could virtually use his skills with no limit. There was no need to worry about chaos power consumption.
The unusual thing was the power jewels.
'It is possible to mount two of them, but what are they?'
So far, Kang-jun had yet to hear about a power jewel.
Then he saw that there were two rounded parts at the bottom of the blade.
'It seems like there will be an effect if I attach the power jewels here.'
Perhaps it was similar to the hearts that were attached to legend or myth grade weapons.
Of course, the power was incomparable. He knew about it now, so he would eventually get it in the future.
Kang-jun equipped the Heaven's Blood Sword and exited the dark space.
He wanted to know if anything had happened to Earth Hwanmong and moved there immediately. Fortunately, there didn't seem to be anything unusual.
'I don't know when the attack from the demonic Gods will come, so I should refrain from travelling.'
The enemy was a person called the Goddess of Destruction.
According to Shadowless' words, Kang-jun would fight the demonic Gods in the future. There was a possibility that the Goddess of Destruction and demonic Gods would attack in large quantities.
Therefore, it was now forbidden to leave Pavalia Station.
At present, not only Kang-jun's household members but the two transcendents as well wouldn't be able to exert any power against the demonic Gods.
There was also a possibility of chaos beings who were lured.
He had to be prepared for attacks.
There was another contrast.
Kang-jun would have to face them alone.
He could fight against other chaos beings, but the problem was the demonic Gods.
Would he be victorious in a fight against the demonic Gods?
Shadowless said he wouldn't be defeated, but Kang-jun still couldn't feel relieved.
Thus, Kang-jun's heart was in a very heavy state.
(Lord! It is me. Grania.)
Someone sent a message to Kang-jun; it was the angel Grania.
Kang-jun asked her what she wanted from him.
(Do you have something to say to me?)
(Yes, please come and see me. I'm currently at headquarters.)
Grania was a protector for one of the small worlds.
Yet she was currently waiting for Kang-jun at the Delta building headquarters.
Kang-jun headed straight to headquarters where Keirun, Aniel and Grania were waiting.
"It is great to see Lord."
They greeted Kang-jun instantly. Keirun seemed to already know why Grania had come to headquarters.
Kang-jun sat on the throne and spoke,
"You must have something important to say if you came all the way to headquarters. Please tell me what it is, Grania."
Grania replied with a bright smile,
"Actually, I received a revelation."
"Revelation?"
Grania nodded.
"It was from the Celestial World. It was the first time since I regained the power of an angel, so I was also surprised."
A revelation from the Celestial World... Kang-jun wondered about why it had been given.
"What is it?"
"You who have the power of chaos! The Celestial World has been fighting the demonic Gods for a long time and the war is still continuing. Now, the Goddess of Destruction has stretched her arms out to the dimensional worlds, including Pavalia Station, so the Celestial World will send reinforcements."
Grania repeated the revelation exactly as she had received it.
It was a message to Kang-jun since Grania said it was for the person with

the power of chaos.
"Oh! Support of the Celestial World?"
Kang-jun was surprised at the unexpected reinforcements. As he would get reinforcements from the Celestial World, he wouldn't need to fight the demonic Gods alone.
If so, it would be very powerful.
On the other hand, he doubted that this would be a trick from a demonic God.
It wouldn't be easy for a demonic God to fake a revelation or even know that Grania was an angel.
Then Aniel spoke up,
"Amongst them, the Goddess of Destruction is a particularly powerful demonic God. She is also referred to as the great demonic God. If she is aiming for this place, you won't be able to stop her without the help of the Celestial World. Moreover, a demonic God can never bewitch an angel."
She had a soft smile on her face like she had read Kang-jun's mind. Kang-jun's eyes widened as he stared at Aniel.
"Did you read my thoughts?"
"I just guessed based on Lord's expression. Additionally, I was already thinking about it."
Kang-jun smiled.
"I see. The Goddess of Destruction has already tried to trick me, so there is a chance that she is behind the revelation."
Kang-jun explained what happened with the Goddess of Destruction. In fact, Kang-jun would be fighting alone, but it was necessary to inform Keirun and Aniel so that they could prepare.
Grania spoke with a surprised expression like she knew what Kang-jun's concerns were.
"This was after my power as an angel was restored, so they can kill me, but they can't fool me. It must have come down from the Celestial World."
"I'm glad to hear that."
At that moment, Grania closed her eyes. Then she opened them again with a bright expression.
"Lord! I just received another revelation. The reinforcements from the Celestial World should arrive here soon."
"Oh!"
Kang-jun was delighted. He wondered how many would come.
'Aren't they existences capable of fighting against a demonic God?'
If so, they should be very powerful.
After a while, there was a brilliant light above Earth Hwanmong as a group of people with sacred wings appeared.
They flew towards the roof of the Delta building where Kang-jun and the military advisers were waiting for them.
There were exactly five people from the Celestial World.
One of them was a young man with blue hair who gave off a gentle impression. The mere sight of him reminded Kang-jun of an angel.
"I'm an advanced angel, Luminael. I came with the angels to support Lucan."
A powerful atmosphere could be felt from Luminael and Kang-jun determined that Luminael had the combat power of a chaos being.
Additionally, the four angels behind him...
Surprisingly, they were transcendent.
One was equivalent to a chaos being and four equivalent to a transcendent...
A mighty power had indeed joined Kang-jun's camp. Of course, the opponents were demonic Gods, so the transcendents might not be a big help.
"We welcome you coming here from the Celestial World."
Kang-jun greeted Luminael, but Luminael scratched his head and sighed.
"Thank you for your hospitality but I have to apologize."
"What does that mean?"
"There is an emergency in the Celestial World these days due to the demonic Gods running around. There are many demonic Gods, so we are lacking angels to deal with them."
Luminael spoke with a solemn and regretful expression.
"In particular, Karosio the Goddess of Destruction is a very demanding opponent. Originally, there should have been much more reinforcements."
Kang-jun sighed after hearing that.
Still, having some angel supporters was better than nothing.
Kang-jun smiled.
"We'll have to work together. It is a lot more reassuring than fighting alone."
Luminael smiled like he was impressed.
"That's what I was thinking, hahaha."
He immediately handed a box to Kang-jun.
"Take this, Lucan."
"What is this?"
"A gift from the Celestial World. Open it."
Kang-jun opened it to see an amulet s.h.i.+ning brightly.
[Holy Amulet of Resurrection]
-Rating: Celestial
-If you possess one of the treasures of the Celestial World, you will be resurrected immediately at the moment of death.
-After resurrection, you will receive the Wrath of the Heavens for 10 seconds. When Wrath of the Heavens is active, you won't receive any damage and your combat power will increase significantly.
-It is possible to use it once.
"Oh! This is?"
Kang-jun was startled. A celestial grade item.
He was intuitively aware that it was of a higher grade than chaos ranked items.
Not only would he be resurrected in his best state at the moment of death, he would receive Wrath of the Heavens and become invincible for 10 seconds.
It was the perfect item to reverse a situation at the worst moment!
Resurrection was the same as having an extra life.
'Huhu, amazing.'
It was a huge support item. The Celestial World truly was different.
Kang-jun spoke with a smile on his face,
"Even if the opponents are powerful, I don't know if I can accept this treasure. But I truly appreciate it."
Luminael shook his head.
"I'm sorry that it is too weak. I actually tried to get one of the power jewels, but the materials are insufficient, so I came with this."
"What is a power jewel?"
Kang-jun had been wondering what it was. Luminael smiled and explained,
"A power jewel is a special jewel that can only be used by those with, at least, the power of chaos. In particular, it can deal real damage when attacked to equipment."
"Is the power that useful?"
"It is very powerful. Some of the power jewels can weaken the demonic Gods or even seal them."
So, it was like that. Kang-jun hadn't known about it.
"It will be hard to fight the demonic Gods without them. Are there other methods of gaining the power jewels apart from the Celestial World?"
Kang-jun asked, but Luminael scratched his head again.
"I'll try to find a way."
His eyes suddenly lit up.
"I think the first demonic God has appeared."
At that moment, Kang-jun also felt the presence of a demonic God.
The evil presence that appeared in Pavalia Station!
There was no doubt it was a demonic God. Kang-jun's eyes shone coldly.
'Has it started?'
Kang-jun and Luminael instantly disappeared.
Kwa kwa kwa kwa!
It felt like a gigantic tsunami was occurring as the sea of clouds shook. Sometimes, unusual weather phenomena would occur, but this was different.
The dimensional power and small worlds were being swallowed up.
Usually, small worlds, which were caught up in abnormal weather, were either moved to other areas of the dimensional system or were unable to withstand the pressure and were destroyed.
However, they were now being sucked into the mouth of a demonic God.
It was hard to imagine the small worlds being absorbed.
Yet, such a terrible thing was now occurring in Pavalia Station.
By the time Kang-jun and Luminael appeared, dozens of small worlds had already disappeared without a trace.
One of them included a place where Kang-jun had created a base. It was also where one of his household members was.
'Unbelievable! Melinad...'
Agand Continent, which Naga Queen Melinad was protecting, had disappeared without a trace.
'Melinad died like this.'
Not just Melinad but many of his subordinates had disappeared.
"Lord! I'm really grateful. I hadn't known that I would experience such a delightful day. It is truly a dream.'
Melinad had cried with happiness when Kang-jun gave her the continent. She had been so happy that there was a new world out there.
Kang-jun promised to go see the world she made once he had time.
However, he couldn't keep his promise now. Forever.
And all of this was due to the demonic God.
Kwa kwa kwa kw.a.n.g! Kwa kwa kwa kwa!
Meanwhile, the demonic God was still swallowing the small worlds.
"Stop."
Kang-jun declared furiously.
Flash!
The intense flash that emerged from him cut the tsunami in half.
The tsunami, which felt like a living thing, became silent.
Chu chu chu chu.
Some of the dimensional sea was removed, revealing part of a body.
It was a huge dragon with hundreds of heads.
Luminael saw it and laughed coldly.
"Demonic God Heldas! Even you have joined Karosio, the Goddess of Destruction?"
"Annoying celestial people! This isn't the place for you."
Heldas' giant body emerged from the top of the dimensional sea.
Countless dragons appeared behind him.
All of them were Heldas' subordinates and there were transcendents among them.
Susususu.
In the meantime, the other four angels appeared behind Kang-jun and Luminael.
Heldas laughed like it was ridiculous.
"Are you going to block my troops with only four angels? Kukukuku! I know about the circ.u.mstances of the Celestial World. Don't waste your strength and just go back to the Heavenly World. There won't be any great damage to the Celestial World just because this dimensional system disappeared.
Kang-jun glared at him.
"Demonic God Heldas! I am the one you should be worrying about."
Kang-jun's sword glowed again after his words.
Flash!
A long line of light appeared on Heldas' body and he was cut in two according to the light.
Flash flash!
That wasn't the end. Hundreds of rays of light emerged and cut off Heldas' heads.
Luminael made a shocked expression at the astounding sight.
Of course, simply cutting the body didn't mean that Heldas would die. It just slowed him down for a while before he recovered his original form.
However, it wasn't easy for someone to reach the chaos stage, let alone slice apart a demonic God's body for a while.
Yet Kang-jun had done it so casually.
The separated parts of Heldas' body joined back together again.
"It is useless. Do you think you can keep attacking me like this?"
It was at that moment...
A flash of light emerged from Kang-jun's sword once again and flew toward Heldas.
Flash!
"Aaaaack!"
"Kuaaaack!"
Screams burst out. They came from the mouths of Heldas' subordinates.
The moment the incensed Heldas was going to attack, Kang-jun sliced him in half again. Luminael shouted,
"Great!"
Kang-jun looked back and asked,
"Is there any way to completely eliminate him without him reviving?"
"Although you can't seal a demonic God without a power jewel, you can weaken it through repeated killings."
They would retreat once they were in a weakened state. Then they wouldn't be able to appear for a while until their power was restored.
'There isn't a way to kill him?'
Demonic Gods were immortal existences that couldn't be killed.
That's why they were called Gods.
However, Kang-jun was a chaos being, not a God, so it would over once he died. Of course, he could revive with the Holy Amulet of Resurrection but that was only once.
's.h.i.+t! It is really unfair.'
However, there was no use grumbling. It was nonsense to argue about fairness while fighting a demonic God.
'Okay, then I will keep on killing him.'
From then on, Kang-jun only focused his attacks on Heldas. His anger was blazing due to Melinad's death.
"I will take the demonic God. Luminael, you and the other angels will kill his men."
"I understand."
Luminael agreed to Kang-jun's plan.
He had

already witnessed that Kang-jun's battle power was superior to Heldas.
Hwaaack!
Pa pa pa pa!
Blue streaks emerged from the staffs Luminael and the angels held, immediately turning Heldas' subordinates into dust.
Meanwhile, Kang-jun was killing Heldas continuously.
Kill, kill and kill again.
However, Kang-jun had to use his best attack every time.
This was because the opponent was a demonic God! Simple skills wouldn't be able to damage him.
He used the energy of Heavenly Cut with Heaven's Blood Sword on Heldas, consuming chaos power every time.
Therefore, originally, his chaos power would have already been exhausted.
However, the Heaven's Blood Sword had the ability to absorb chaos power, so Kang-jun's chaos power was rising constantly.
He had unlimited power!
Kang-jun was also surprised by this situation and suddenly recalled Shadowless' words,
'From now on, you will be fighting with demonic Gods. But if you are as strong as you are now, you won't be defeated so easily...'
He wouldn't be defeated so easily by a demonic God!
Kang-jun finally understood the meaning of Shadowless' words.
As long as Heaven's Blood Sword gave him infinite chaos power, he wouldn't be defeated even if he couldn't kill the demonic God.
'Shadowless, is this your revenge?'
That's right, it was Shadowless' revenge s.h.i.+ning through the Heaven's Blood Sword;
The strongest weapon against a demonic God!
If he could get a power jewel, Kang-jun would be able to wipe out the demonic Gods.
Unfortunately, he didn't get any experience because Heldas revived again.
Still, Kang-jun's sword never stopped moving.
As a result, Heldas' body was cut up.
'Ohhh...'
Heldas was frustrated.
'This is ridiculous...!'
He didn't feel any pain from dying and he could survive forever due to the power of a demonic God.
Therefore, the opponent would eventually become tired and reveal their limits.
However, he was confused.
A person who defied common sense had appeared.
'My strength is weakening.'
This meant that it would take a long time for him to recover.
However, he was even more frightened of the possibility of meeting an angel with a power jewel in his current state.
'It can't be helped.'
In the end, Heldas disappeared somewhere with his broken body.
He had retreated.
Kwaaaah!
At that moment, the dimensional sea, which had been shaking roughly, started to calm down.
The remnants of Heldas' men disappeared without a trace.
'In the end, I didn't get revenge.'
He didn't even get any experience. Additionally, none of Heldas' men had dropped any j.a.ptem.
This was because Heldas' men didn't actually die but were summoned to his world at the moment of death.
In fact, no one had been killed.
Rather, Kang-jun was the one who suffered tremendous damage.
It was because dozens of small worlds in Pavalia Station had disappeared.
In particular, the loss of Melinad was painful.
Originally, Kang-jun's household members were supposed to be resurrected at the base immediately after death. However, that base had been destroyed.
If would be nice if she was resurrected at a nearby base, but he couldn't feel Melinad's presence at all.
Then that had to mean she was be dead.
At that time, Luminael approached Kang-jun.
"Lucan. You're much stronger than the rumors say. It was an easy win thanks to you."
Kang-jun shook his head with a bitter expression.
"I didn't lose, but it is also hard to say that I won. I have lost precious household members and troops."
Luminael smiled.
"Haha, don't worry about it. As Heldas escaped and his subordinates returned to his world, the small worlds he swallowed will return to their original state."
"Oh! Is that true?"
Kang-jun was delighted. Luminael nodded.
"The war against the demonic Gods seems to be a type of fantasy. However, it will become reality only at the moment of defeat."
"I see."
"Since you weren't defeated by the demonic God, all the small worlds and your household members will be safe."
It was as he said.
After a while, the small worlds popped out in their original locations.
Among them included Agand Continent that Melinad was the guardian of. It was in such a calm state that it was like nothing had happened.
'It's fortunate.'
Kang-jun smiled with relief, then his expression stiffened.
'It still isn't safe. Demonic God Heldas! He can appear again when he recovers his strength.'
That wasn't all. He didn't know how many demonic Gods were under Karosio. Even the number of chaos beings who fell for her seduction wouldn't be few.
Maybe in the future, Pavalia Station wouldn't have any quiet days.
There was only one way.
He had to end the war as soon as possible.
"A power jewel is necessary."
Kang-jun told Luminael bluntly. Luminael nodded.
"The power jewel is very rare in the Celestial World, so there are no spares. However, I will go and explain the situation here."
After Luminael headed to the Celestial World, Kang-jun decided to go to Agand Continent:
The home of the nagas.
Queen Melinad was the protector of this place.
He had promised to see it once but had almost forgotten about it. Now that the world was right before his eyes, he couldn't just pass by.
Moreover, it was necessary to confirm that Melinad was okay after almost losing her to Heldas.
Sususu.
Kang-jun appeared in the sky above Agand Continent.
The sky was clear with a few spa.r.s.e clouds. There were forests, swamps and beautiful grasslands.
The dimensional sea was a mess, but Agand Continent was very calm.
Even Naga Queen Melinad didn't know that the continent had just been swallowed by a demonic God.
"Something like that happened? I didn't know at all."
Melinad was surprised by Kang-jun's visit and even more surprised to hear that he had fought with a demonic God.
Kang-jun laughed.
He would rather that she didn't know.
However, she was a guardian, so she should have some idea of what was happening in the dimensional sea.
"You don't have to worry. I defeated the demonic God."
Kang-jun smiled as brightly as possible and Melinad looked relieved.
"Why don't you take a break in this place for a while?"
"Shall I?"
Kang-jun nodded and Melinad led him to the Queen's Palace.
"There are many strange things on the Agand Continent. I was going to tell Lord when you came someday."
"Strange things? What is it?"
"You will know if you enter the palace."
The beautiful palace was made of a transparent material like glass.
It was built around Kang-jun's base. The base absorbed the mana prevalent on the continent to power its defenses. Additionally, a huge palace and other buildings were created around it.
By the way, it was interesting that Melinad's half monster body became completely human as soon as she entered the palace.
It was the same for the other nagas as well.
Fortunately, Melinad wore underwear reminiscent of a golden bikini that covered her important parts or she would have been literally naked.
However, there were naked male and female nagas walking around the palace.
Kang-jun was a little embarrassed, but it seemed natural here, so he decided to accept it.
"Strange. What is going on?"
"I haven't figured it out yet. There seems to be something secret about this glass palace."
"I see."
Kang-jun was vaguely curious. If he wasn't busy with the war against the demonic Gods, he would be interested in discovering the secrets of this palace.
However, that wasn't all.
Come to think of it, strange or unusual things didn't only exist on Agand Continent but in almost every small world.
For example, Aquana had found a mysterious dungeon on Freya Island. After going through one dungeon, a new one would emerge and it was endless.
Therefore, it might be very exciting to explore the hidden secrets in each small world.
Melinad spoke,
"In particular, there is a very strange dungeon in the bas.e.m.e.nt of the palace."
"Strange dungeon?"
"Yes. I couldn't enter because I was blocked by an unknown aura."
"Hrmm."
Kang felt fine, but there was some strange chaos energy underneath him.
There was a dungeon there, so he was vaguely curious.
'Should I go and see it?'
Kang-jun had nothing to do until a demonic God emerged.
"Guide me. I will go examine it once."
"Yes, follow me."
He descended the spiral staircase after Melinad and a large circular space appeared underground.
There was a dungeon entrance in the corner that, surprisingly, had a film of chaos power over the entrance.
'This?'
Kang-jun's eyes shone. It was a dungeon that only chaos beings could enter. Without chaos power, they wouldn't be able to figure it out. It was no wonder that Melinad said she couldn't figure it out.
However, the even more unusual thing was that he couldn't go through simply because he was a chaos being.
Another restriction existed:
The person had to be a sovereign.
Kang-jun sensed it intuitively.
'This is a place that only I can enter.'
Chuuuot.
Kang-jun passed through the entrance of the dungeon.
Melinad couldn't enter, so she could only watch from outside.
'Where is this place?'
Once he entered the dungeon, there was a big room.
Sususu.
People in cloaks surrounded him immediately.
'Shadows?'
They looked similar to the shadows that enforced the rules of Hwanmong.
However, surprisingly, the atmosphere around these shadows was different to the ones he had seen in the past.
They had the atmosphere of a transcendent.
"Arriving here means that you are a sovereign who has reached the chaos level."
"That's right."
Kang-jun didn't deny it. Then the shadows bowed in unison toward Kang-jun.
"Ohh! We have been hiding in the darkness dreaming that you would arrive and that day has finally come."
Kang-jun was shocked. The people had dreamt that he would come here. According to them, Kang-jun hadn't come here accidentally.
"Who are you? Why are you hiding in a place like this?"
"We don't know who we are. We just know what we have to do."
It was

the same answer as the previous shadows he'd met.
However, these ones sounded a little more human.
But did they really not know who they were?
They only existed to perform a given mission! Kang-jun thought of them as created existences. They were not humans but golems.
Kang-jun asked,
"Then what are you supposed to do?"
"A sovereign who reaches the chaos level... It is to meet you."
"You waited here to meet me?"
"That's right."
Then one of the shadows said,
"Now, I will tell you the background of Hwanmong."
"You can tell me that?"
Kang-jun was startled. Kang-jun had asked the previous shadows, but they couldn't answer.
"Of course. As a chaos sovereign, you are qualified to know. However, we don't know a lot. We can tell you a few things."
"Tell me."
"We don't know who created Hwanmong. There are some who say that it happened on its own, but that is impossible to confirm. There is only one thing that's for sure - Hwanmong are worlds that are made up of dream fantasies."
"Dream fantasies."
"That's correct. If there are no dreamers, Hwanmong can't exist."
"I guess so."
Kang-jun was in a dream right now, so the words weren't wrong.
"Hwanmong is a new dimension created by the fantasies. It is a place represented by the dimensional sea. However, it is connected to other worlds and have started receiving the intervention of the beings in those worlds."
"Other beings?"
"Gods. In particular, the demonic Gods started to crawl into Hwanmong."
"Hrmm."
"Then the Celestial World started to move. Originally the Celestial World didn't pay much attention to Hwanmong. However, they are worried that the worlds will fall into chaos if Hwanmong is taken over by demonic Gods and have started trying to take control of Hwanmong."
"So, the war between the Celestial World and the demonic Gods will be done in Hwanmong?"
"The war between the Celestial World and demonic Gods has always been going on. Hwanmong just became an added battlefield. That's all we know."
Kang-jun nodded.
"That's right. Then what do you want from me?"
"We don't want Hwanmong to be controlled by the demonic Gods or the Celestial World. We want it to exist on an independent level as a neutral zone. Dreams shouldn't depend on anything."
They didn't want Hwanmong to be controlled by either the Celestial World or the demonic Gods.
"In Hwanmong, demons and angels can be friends while different species of monsters can live together in harmony. It is a world where humans can drink excessively or love a demon. What constraints are there in a fantasy? That is Hwanmong."
A fantasy should be free. If it was constrained by one side, it could no longer be called Hwanmong.
"I understand what you mean, but why are you telling me this? I won't be able to fight a war with the Celestial World and the demonic Gods for the independence of Hwanmong."
Then the shadows shouted in unison,
"That's exactly it. You are a sovereign who has reached the chaos level! So, it is possible."
Kang-jun was dumbfounded by the outrageous words.
"Right now, I am at war with the demonic Gods. I am receiving the support of the Celestial World. Yet you want me to fight the Celestial World as well?"
"You don't have to be enemies. It is just necessary to establish Hwanmong as a neutral zone where the two sides can't fight."
"How can I do that? I don't have the ability to seal a demonic God right now. In order to deal with them, the power of the Celestial World is necessary."
One of the shadow sighed and said,
"It is likely that the Celestial World won't give you the power jewel right away. They will use excuses such as having an insufficient supply."
"Then that isn't true?"
"It might be true, but as the Celestial World gradually increases its support, it is certain that Hwanmong will become subordinate to the Celestial World."
It meant that Kang-jun would be tamed by the Celestial World. It seemed unbelievable, but what if it was true?
Kang-jun couldn't help but feel disappointed towards the Celestial World.
It would be different if he had a power jewel.
Kang-jun asked suddenly,
"Are you sure it isn't good for Hwanmong to be controlled by the demonic Gods or Celestial World?"
"The power of Hwanmong will disperse after it is controlled. This actually happened to another Hwanmong. Then the same thing will happen to you. You will lose everything you've gained from Hwanmong and return to the original world without any memories."
It meant Kang-jun would return to the time when he was living in the gos.h.i.+won.
Just like the illusion he had seen previously, he would be lame, balding and urgently trying to find work.
They were extreme words.
Kang-jun didn't like the shadows' words, but he kept in mind that it could happen.
"However, right now, it is impossible to win against the demonic Gods without the help of the Celestial World."
"There is a way."
"What is it?"
"We don't know. However, a chaos sovereign will be able to find the way."
"In order words, I can find my own power jewel to seal the demonic Gods?"
"Perhaps even more than that. Look in the mysterious places on small worlds, just like you found us here. The true power of Hwanmong exists in those small worlds."
The true power of Hwanmong existed in the small worlds!
Perhaps, more than a power jewel would be hidden.
If that was truly the case, he would be able to seal a demonic God without relying on the Celestial World.
'Then I should go to the dungeon that Aquana told me about.'
Kang-jun immediately decided to check if the shadows' words were true.
'If I can find a power jewel, I won't need to submit to the angels' authority.'
At that moment, one of the shadows called out to Kang-jun,
"Dimensional sovereign! We have delivered our message. Now, it depends on your choice."
Kang-jun was silent, then he nodded.
"If your words are true, then I will ensure that Hwanmong won't be controlled by the demonic Gods or the Celestial World."
The shadows cheered in unison:
"We believe in you."
"Now, we will be your strength."
"You have the same will, so the power of Hwanmong will help you."
The bodies of the shadows faded away.
At the same time, an unknown light appeared around Kang-jun.
Messages popped up!
[The power of Hwanmong has recognized you as the guardian of Hwanmong.]
[Now, the power of Hwanmong will guide you using the missions to ensure that you get what you need most.]
'Mission?'
More related messages appeared.
[The power of Hwanmong will create the mission you need now.]
[Mission] Melinad's Dream
[Performance Conditions] The mysterious phenomenon that appeared in the Queen's Palace on Agand Continent is due to Melinad's dream. Ask her about the dream and release her from it.
[Compensation] One level, the Book of Power
[Do you want to accept the mission?]
[Yes/No]
[The mission can be abandoned at any time without a penalty.]
[However, once abandoned, the mission can't be accepted again.]
It was the first time he could choose whether or not to accept a mission. After becoming transcendent, it was possible to make deals with the shadows.
However, he hadn't accept the missions because he hadn't liked the compensation.
However, the rewards for this mission were truly astonis.h.i.+ng.
Right now, just gaining one level was incredible. It was because such a huge amount of experience was required for one level that even defeating a transcendent wouldn't make him level up.
However, the level up was nothing compared to the next reward.
'Book of Power? Then perhaps?'
Kang-jun was convinced that the reward had something to do with the power jewel.
'It must tell of a way to get the power jewel.'
The rewards for the mission had changed from the past.
Additionally, the description of the mission had changed as well.
'Yes! I accept.'
Then another message appeared immediately.
[You've accepted the mission, Melinad's Dream.]
[Fulfilling Melinad's dream will accomplish the mission.]
Furthermore, the contents of the mission had now disappeared.
The mission requirements for Kang-jun were changed automatically.
'That's it. Now, I just need to go out and ask Melinad.'
She would be waiting outside the dungeon. Kang-jun exited the dungeon immediately.
Chu chu chu.
At that moment, all traces of the dungeon faded away like it had never been there in the first place.
However, that was only to ordinary people as the entrance to the dungeon was clear in Kang-jun's eyes.
'The dungeon is completely concealed.'
One of the shadows probably did it. Now that Kang-jun had figured out the location, it wasn't necessary for others to know that there was a dungeon here.
"Lord! What was inside?"
"Shadows."
"Who are they?"
"Those who control the rules of Hwanmong. They told me things about Hwanmong."
The meeting with the shadows.
It was an important event that changed Kang-jun's destiny.
If it hadn't been for Melinad, Kang-jun would never have entered the dungeon here. Therefore, Kang-jun had a lot of warmth in his eyes as he gazed at her.
"I'm glad to help Lord."
"So, if you want a reward, tell me and I will give it to you."
"All I did was let you know that there was a dungeon here."
"It was a very big help to me. Don't feel burdened and tell me."
Kang-jun wanted to know Melinad's wish so he could complete the mission.
"There must be some dream or fantasy that you want to achieve."
Melinad tilted her head to the side.
"Let's see. There should be something."
"Think carefully. It might be related to the mysterious phenomenon occurring at the palace here."
Melinad looked startled as she suddenly thought of something.
"That reminds me..."
"Did you think of something?"
"I actually wished that I could become a human like Lord, but it is amazing that the power of this dream turned me into a human being in the palace."
Kang-jun was also amazed. He hadn't known that Melinad wanted to be a human.
"Why do you want to be a human?"
"That..."
Melinad suddenly blushed as she bowed her head and didn't speak.
Kang-jun grasped her shoulders with his hands and stared at her.
"Please speak. Tell me what it is. It is very important to me."
Once Kang-jun spoke so passionately, Melinad replied like it couldn't be helped.
"Do I honestly have to say

it?"
"Yes. What is the reason?"
"I want to become Lord's lover."
"...!"
Kang-jun finally knew what Melinad's dream was.
She wanted to be human!
This was because Kang-jun was a human. She wanted to be a human and his lover.
'A romance with the naga queen.'
He hadn't thought about it, but Kang-jun didn't feel any resistance toward taking a beautiful woman as a lover.
It was an impossible love in reality.
However, it was possible in Hwanmong.
Apart from accomplis.h.i.+ng the mission, Melinad was a woman who deserved to be loved.
"Your fantasy. It will now become a reality."
Kang-jun smiled fondly as he stared into Melinad's eyes.
"Lord, are you serious?"
Melinad thought this was a dream. Kang-jun gently embraced her and declared,
"I'm serious."
"Ah."
A smile of joy bloomed on Meliand's face.
Kang-jun immediately moved to her bedroom and they spent time together. He also went out on walks with her.
The unusual thing was that this time, Melinad kept the appearance of a human even after leaving the palace.
This was also her dream.
Then he found a dungeon by accident. The entrance to the dungeon was visible behind a waterfall.
"Lord, there is a dungeon here."
"Wait, I'll go in."
There were no threats in the dungeon. One of the Aoks without a master had harmonized itself, transforming the Aok into a dungeon that settled on Agand Continent.
The treasure obtained was a silver harp that was unusually small. It was like a palm-sized toy.
It was a myth grade item.
A hand wasn't needed as it played by itself with the help of emotional thoughts.
It was only possible for women to wear it. The harp could be mounted in the shape of a bracelet and the magic defense increased when it was equipped.
Kang-jun handed it to Melinad.
"Take this. It is a gift."
"Thank you Lord."
A beautiful melody played the moment she took the harp.
A sweet but fun melody that made his heart feel joy.
The melody that rang out was according to Melinad's feelings.
However, if there was any emotional dissonance, it would emerge in the music.
It was pleasant and calm music when the person was pleased or terrible when they were angry.
In particular, there was a fantastic melody when she was in bed with Kang-jun. The joy was amplified by several times.
'This music is addictive.'
In fact, the harp had the effect of filling health or black magic energy very quickly. However, that was meaningless to Kang-jun, so he just thought that the music itself was good.
Kang-jun was eager to continue hearing the music.
It showed that she was very happy.
Kang-jun closed his eyes and could see Melinad's bright smile from the melody.
Her dream was to see Kang-jun. She kept on thinking it was a dream, but at this point, she realized that it was no longer a dream.
Like Kang-jun said, he had turned it into reality.
Then finally, the messages that Kang-jun wanted to see popped up.
[You have fulfilled Melinad's fantasy.]
[The mission has been accomplished.]
He received messages stating that the mission was complete.
He had merely spent a fun time with Melinad, yet the mission had been completed.
'It would be nice if all missions were like this.'
Kang-jun glanced at the messages with a large grin.
[As a reward, enough experience will be given to increase your level.]
[The Book of Power (Hwanmong) has been given as compensation.]
He gained one level and reached Lv311.
He also acquired the Book of Power.
[Book of Power]
-Rating: Hwanmong
-A book about power jewels that can only be read by the guardian of Hwanmong.
'Indeed!'
As expected, the Book of Power contained information about the power jewels.
Moreover, it was Hwanmong ranked.
It was an unusual rank that was different from the items that went from transcendent to chaos and then to Celestial or Demonic.
He was certain that the Hwanmong rating was the best!
Kang-jun sensed it intuitively.
'Shall I read the book?'
Kang-jun opened the Book of Power.
A bright light emerged and penetrated Kang-jun's head.
[Through the Book of Power, you can get the recipe for the jewels of Sealing, Guardian, Destruction or Endurance. Please choose what you want.]
[Sealing] Seal the target.
[Guardian] Defense ability will rise.
[Destruction] Attack power will rise.
[Endurance] Survival capacity will rise.
'I will select Sealing.'
All of them seemed useful, but Sealing was the one he needed most when dealing with the demonic Gods.
Then new messages appeared.
[You have obtained the recipe for the Sealing Jewel.]
[Sealing Power Jewel Recipe]
- 10 sealing pieces, one Essence of Power, 3,000 Destruction Pieces and 100 synthesized Essence of Chaos.
-Sealing pieces can be obtained by destroying Aoks.
-An Essence of Power can be obtained by disassembling items of the celestial, demonic or Hwanmong rank.
-A Destruction Piece have a certain probability of being obtained from the destroyers at the Hall of Destruction.
-You must know the art of alchemy in order to make the Sealing Jewel.
'Materials are necessary.'
Thanks to the Book of Power, Kang-jun learnt how to create the Sealing Jewel.
There were many materials, but they weren't hard to find except for the Essence of Power.
The Aoks were easy to find and it would be easy to collect 3,000 Destruction Pieces if he travelled through the dark space to other Halls of Destruction.
Furthermore, thousands of Essence of Chaos had acc.u.mulated in his space due to Sud's work.
The only problem was the Essence of Power.
It could be obtained from disassembling an item with a celestial, demonic or Hwanmong rank.
Fortunately, Kang-jun had received a new item with the celestial rank.
'The Holy Amulet of Resurrection! I can disassemble it.'
It was a celestial ranked item that would allow him to resurrect at the moment of death.
...To be able to survive in the worst situation!
That was very reassuring to Kang-jun.
However, that wasn't always a good thing.
'I became reliant on it.'
...Being glad at the thought of resurrection at the moment of death!
That meant Kang-jun's mind had weakened.
Dying once was the end!
It was the reason why Kang-jun had tried so desperately to survive and had been able to become as strong as he was now. If he depended on the resurrection item, his mind would weaken and he wouldn't become stronger.
Kang-jun suddenly felt some doubts as he held the Holy Amulet of Resurrection in his hands.
'Maybe the Celestial World had such intentions when they gave me this amulet.'
Anyway, it was certainly a waste to disassemble.
However, Kang-jun needed the power jewel more than the Holy Amulet of Resurrection, so he decided to give it up.
Kang-jun asked the alchemist Sud, who was in his shadow,
"Sud, please come out as your synthesis alchemy is required. Disassemble this Holy Amulet of Resurrection."
Kang-jun remembered that synthesis alchemy had the ability to disassemble as well as synthesize.
(Lord, the rating is so high that it is impossible for me.)
Sud's power meant he could only disassemble items that were up to myth grade.
He needed to be at least transcendent in order to disassemble items of the celestial rank.
"This is certainly troublesome. I need to disassemble this to make the power jewel."
While he was worrying, Sud asked suddenly,
(What if i give Lord the synthesis alchemy? In particular, Lord's luck is high, so more than one Essence of Power might appear.)
"That's a good idea."
Sometimes, he made everything so complicated that he couldn't see the simple things.
Kang-jun was able to comprehend even the most complicated of magics because his intelligence had risen to 309.
it was the same for skills.
It was possible for him to transcend the occupation and learn any skill.
[You have learnt Synthesis Alchemy.]
[Synthesis has been learnt.]
[Disassembly has been learnt.]
As expected, Kang-jun instantly learned synthesis alchemy from Sud.
He immediately tried disassembling.
'Disassemble, the Holy Amulet of Resurrection!'
[The Holy Amulet of Resurrection is a celestial grade item.]
[The disassembly can't be reversed.]
[Are you sure you want to disassemble it?]
[Yes/No]
'Yes! Disassemble.'
Kang-jun didn't hesitate.
The amulet in his hands disappeared. At the same time, messages appeared.
[The disassembly of the Holy Amulet of Resurrection has succeeded.
[Three Essence of Power have been acquired.]
[1,200 Dimensional Pieces have been acquired.]
'Oh!'
He got three Essence of Power. There was also 1,200 Dimensional Pieces.
In the past, he had only gotten one Dimensional Piece at a time.
Yet, he had just gained 1,200 all at once.
However, this much was expected after disassembling a celestial grade item.
He now needed to get the rest of the materials.
'10 Sealing Pieces and 3,000 Destruction Pieces... It will be over soon.'
Kang-jun opened Aoks on Agand Continent and other small worlds.
If any demons, dragons or spirits were trapped inside the Aoks, they were released after swearing allegiance to Kang-jun.
Then one or two Sealing Pieces emerged when the Aoks were destroyed. Getting rid of Aoks was a very easy task for Kang-jun.
After gathering 10 Sealing Pieces, Kang-jun immediately flew into the dark space and slaughtered the destroyers around the Halls of Destruction.
When he swung his sword, thousands of destroyers were killed, so he collected 3,000 Destruction Pieces very quickly.
'Huhu, that's it.'
He finally gathered all the materials necessary to create the power jewel.
Kang-jun took out one Essence of Power and placed it on the floor.
The other two were kept in his inventory. They would be useful for creating other power jewels later.
He continued with the other materials.
10 Sealing Pieces, 3,000 Destruction Pieces and 100 Essence of Chaos.
It was now the moment he had been waiting for.
Kang-jun gathered them together and used a skill.
'Synthesis!'
At that moment, the materials shone brightly.
[The Sealing Power Jewel has been successfully created.]
[Sealing Power Jewel]
-Rating: Hwanmong
-You can seal the target in a Hwanmong world.
-It will be effective when mounting on a weapon.
"Ohh! It's a success!"
Kang-jun cheered and immediately attached the Sealing Jewel to Heaven's Blood Sword.
[The Sealing Power Jewel has been attached to the Heaven's Blood Sword.
[A Hwanmong ranked item has been attached, so the Heaven's Blood Sword has been upgraded from chaos to Hwanmong.]
[The attack power of Heaven's Blood Sword is greatly increased when in Hwanmong.]
[Heaven's Blood Sword]
-Rating: Hwanmong
-A sword that Shadowless created by refining chaos power. Only chaos items can be mounted on it.
The power of Heaven's Blood Sword Style will be enhanced when used with this sword.
-Capable of attacks that ignore the target's defense.
-Absorbs chaos power when attacking.
-Damage greatly increases when in Hwanmong.
-Power Jewel that can be mounted 1/2
-Sealing Power Jewel: Seals the target within a Hwanmong world.
-Level restriction of 305.
Kang-jun attached a power jewel to the Heaven's Blood Sword.
The power to seal targets into Hwanmong!
In the future, if Kang-jun killed a demonic God just once, they would be sealed in a Hwanmong world.
This meant Kang-jun no longer had to worry about their power of immortality.
Of course, in addition to demonic Gods, it was also possible to seal chaos or transcendent beings.
Kang-jun could even seal angels or celestial Gods that he defeated.
However, if he used was a power jewel from the Celestial World, it wouldn't be effective against the angels and celestial Gods.
Of course, Kang-jun didn't think that he would need to seal an angel or celestial God. Even if he refused the help of the Celestial World, he didn't intend
Advertisement
to become enemies with them.
Therefore, the target of his seals would be the demonic Gods.
"I wonder who will be the target of the first seal."
Kang-jun put the Heaven's Blood Sword away in his space.
However, Luminael, who had gone to the Celestial World, returned just then. He smiled bitterly at Kang-jun and said,
"Lucan, unfortunately, I didn't receive a power jewel. But don't be too disappointed. I have comforting news instead."
"What is it?"
Luminael relaxed and gave a big smile.
"The Celestial World wants to spread a blessing with the Delta building as the heart."
"Oh! Really?"
"It is a very good thing. All your bases will be connected and the demonic Gods won't be able to attack."
"That is good."
It was very difficult for Kang-jun to prevent his bases from being attacked.
Of course, the base would be restored if he won against the demonic God, but it was better to prevent it from the beginning
Then Luminael said suddenly,
"Lucan, there is just one condition."
"What is the condition?"
"The blessing of the heart is burdensome because it consumes a lot of the Celestial World's power. In particular, it is more difficult in Hwanmong where the flow of dimensional power is irregular."
"I see."
"Yes, the only way is to designate Pavalia Station, which contains Lucan's base, as a Celestial World area."
Kang-jun's expression hardened.
"What does that mean?"
"Literally, this area will be affiliated with the Celestial World, rather than Hwanmong. This will make it very easy to protect."
Kang-jun laughed bitterly. It was certainly very good, but the main point was that he would become subordinate to the Celestial World.
If Kang-jun was a normal human, instead of a chaos being and sovereign, he might have accepted this offer.
After all, the station would become very peaceful under the Celestial World's rule.
However, it was absolutely unacceptable as a Hwanmong sovereign.
As the shadows had said, it was clear that the Celestial World was thinking of eliminating Hwanmong under the pretext of helping Kang-jun.
Then Luminael asked,
"Do you accept the Celestial World's offer? This is very beneficial to Lucan."
"Is it truly beneficial?"
Kang-jun glared at Luminael sharply. Luminael made a sound of surprise.
"Huh?"
"I asked if it would truly benefit me."
"Of course. If Lucan receives the protection of the Celestial World, you won't have to battle the demonic Gods yourself..."
"After the Celestial World absorbs Hwanmong, the power of Hwanmong will be scattered and lost. So, it won't be possible for me to fight the demonic Gods."
"T-that..."
Luminael was very startled. With a cynical expression, Kang-jun continued speaking,
"Of course, I appreciate that you will take on the burden of fighting for me. However, I will lose everything and will return to my original world as an ordinary human. Is that truly beneficial for me?"
Luminael sighed and replied,
"Lucan, this can't be helped. I didn't know how to say this, but it is something that you should definitely know."
Kang-jun remained silent as Luminael continued,
"Hwanmong is a dream. It isn't reality. Everything is a virtual image created from a dream."
"So, breaking the dream will mean returning to reality?"
"Technically speaking, yes. Hwanmong shouldn't exist in the world. It is a very dangerous place that breaks the rules of the dimensions."
In the end, the truth came out. It was really good that Kang-jun had met the shadows under the Queen's Palace.
Otherwise, he would have been very confused by Luminael's current attitude.
However, Kang-jun accepted the situation pretty well because he had expected something like this from the Celestial World. The time came quickly as well.
On the other hand, while Kang-jun remained silent, Luminael tried to soothe him,
"However, the Celestial World recognizes your merits and has decided to leave what you achieved in reality. Originally, you would be living in the small gos.h.i.+won in the Dafeng building, but you will now live comfortably as the owner of the Delta building. Of course, all the 16 trillion won will be yours."
He continued talking with a smile,
"So, it is time to forget about Hwanmong and return to reality. If you stay here, you won't be able to live comfortably due to the demonic Gods."
Kang Jun laughed, then he smiled at Luminael.
"I see. I understand what the Celestial World is thinking, but unfortunately, I don't think I can obey. Thanks for the help you've provided so far, but please return. I will no longer receive help in the battle against the demonic Gods."
Luminael frowned like he was outraged.
"Lucan, do you truly think you can win against the demonic Gods alone? If you are defeated by the demonic Gods, everything will be destroyed— not just in Hwanmong but in reality as well."
"I'll take care of them. I can handle the demonic Gods on my own."
Kang-jun thought that Luminael's proposal was ridiculous in many ways, but he didn't get angry.
He simply declined the help of the Celestial World.
Additionally, he decided not to become an enemy of the Celestial World.
Yet Kang-jun suddenly noticed a strange sight.
'That?'
Surprisingly, reality was right in front of him.
The door of Hwanmong hadn't closed, he was just seeing a preview of reality.
Hayun gazed at the sleeping Kang-jun with sweet eyes.
Colt was looking over the expenses of the Delta building.
Additionally, he saw Shakan drinking at the odeng bar with people.
Keljark had just finished her business at the chicken house and was educating her household members mentally.
The four figures could clearly be seen in front of him.
Luminael spoke in a cold and firm tone,
"It is a pity, Lucan. You are still dreaming, so I want to remind you of one reality. They are beings that shouldn't exist in reality. At this moment, their existences will be erased from reality."
As he said that, Hayun literally disappeared into smoke. It was the same for Colt. Shakan and Keljark faded away without a trace as well.
However, no one knew that they were gone. The moment they disappeared, all memories of them had been erased.
"...!"
Kang-jun's eyes widened and he stared straight at Luminael.
"That is a real situation that is occurring right now?"
"That's right."
"If you are lying to intimidate me, then tell me honestly."
Luminael smiled coldly and shook his head.
"Would an advanced angel lie? This is a real situation. Now, give up on Hwanmong and return to reality. Otherwise, you will lose all your properties including the Delta building."
At that moment, a light flashed in Kang-jun's eyes. He took out the Heaven's Blood Sword with a creepy sneer.
"I hadn't expected that the target of the first seal would be an advanced angel."
The Heaven's Blood Sword sliced apart the space in front of him.
Flash!
The light from Kang-jun's sword struck Luminael's body.
Pasususu.
Luminael's body then turned into dust. However, it had only been a clone as the real Luminael frowned at Kang-jun from a distant place.
"Do you really want to be stubborn, Lucan? You might regret it."
"This is the final warning. Return Hayun and the others intact."
Kang-jun hadn't used the power jewel yet. He thought about trying to seal Luminael but decided to give him one last chance.
The illusion wasn't a welcome thing.
It was obvious that Hayun and the others had been summoned to the Celestial World. Therefore, he thought the advanced angel Luminael would be able to return them like nothing had happened.
However, Luminael ignored Kang-jun's warning and said with a sigh,
"Whatever you do, they won't be able to return. The Celestial World has already decided to send you back to reality. If you insist on being stubborn..."
Luminael didn't finish speaking.
Suddenly, a gleaming light split his chest apart.
Flash!
Kang-jun's attack was so fast that he only noticed after his heart was struck.
"T-this..."
Luminael made a surprised expression. He knew that Kang-jun was strong, but he hadn't expected him to be so powerful that Luminael couldn't even touch him.
"You're crazy. Do you know what you are doing right now?"
"I'm very normal. Rather, you are the one who doesn't understand the situation."
Luminael groaned.
"Ha! Then it can't be helped. You are now on an irreversible path."
Sususu.
His body blurred and disappeared.
As an advanced angel, he had a fighting power similar to a demonic God. In other words, he also had the ability of immortality that didn't allow him to die.
However, Kang-jun was so strong that there was no way to beat him.
'I will go back to the Celestial World and check the situation.'
But he soon fell into shock as he felt his power suddenly escaping from his body.
That wasn't all.
Before him was a strange place! The moment Kang-jun sliced his chest, he had appeared in a strange place that definitely wasn't the Celestial World.
'Where is this place?'
It was a space of unknown darkness.
Although everywhere was dark, he was able to see.
'Unbelievable! My divine power has been exhausted.'
He was in a state where his ability as an advanced angel had been lost.
This state meant he was no different from an ordinary human and he couldn't return to the Celestial World either.
Sususu.
Kang-jun appeared in front of him.
In fact, this was another world that Kang-jun had created using the power of the Sealing Jewel.
Therefore, Kang-jun could use all his strength but the sealed Luminael couldn't use his.
It was similar to the battle field and punishment field, but the difference was that there was no time limit and the opponent's ability was sealed.
The most important point was that there was no time limit!
Unless Kang-jun released him, Luminael would be stuck in this world forever.
"How did this....?"
Luminael realized he couldn't return to the Celestial World and that he was trapped in a seal.
...Sealing an advanced angel of the Celestial World!
Only a small number of demonic Gods had the power jewels that were able to do this.
"Don't tell me that you have the power jewel of a demonic God?"
Kang-jun laughed coldly.
"You don't need to know. If you are wise, you should only be thinking of one thing— a method to return Hayun, Colt, Shakan and Keljark."
Luminael laughed bitterly.
"You are greater than I had thought, but even so, it is foolish to fight against the Celestial World."
Kang-jun smiled coldly.
"I don't want to hear that. Restore Hayun and the others right now, then I will release you."
"Once again, those who disappeared from Earth are now out of my hands and I can't return them even if I want to."
"Are you saying this again? It seems like you still don't know the predicament you're in. I can't believe the words of an angel."
At that moment, the punishment seal appeared in front of Kang-jun.
[As master of this world, you can punish the prisoners trapped here with the Punishment of Time.]
[Punishment of Time]
-The target will be trapped in time and made to feel loneliness and despair.
The Sealing Jewel with the formidable power of Hwanmong...
It didn't just lock up the target, a punishment was also added.
It wasn't anything other than time.
[Please determine the length of punishment.]
[You can choose freely from a minimum of one year to a maximum of 100 years.]
Somehow, the punishment seemed harsh.
It was 100 human years, so that was nothing to angels.
However, Kang-jun had sealed Luminael's abilities, so Luminael's mentality had dropped to a the level of a human's.
'It can't be helped. I will use 100 years which is the maximum punishment time.'
This meant the flow of time would be distorted to 100 years when Kang-jun entered and left.
It was a long time for

a human.
Luminael, with the mentality of a human, needed to spend that long in the punishment.
It was an empty space where he couldn't do anything and was powerless.
Of course, Luminael was still unaware of what would happen to him. Kang-jun watched Luminael with a cold expression and declared,
"Please answer wisely the next time I enter."
[The Punishment of Time has begun. A countdown to 100 years has begun.]
After seeing those messages, Kang-jun left the sealed world.
Before he knew it, the door to Hwanmong had closed.
It was time to return to reality.
[The door to Hwanmong is closed.]
Kang-jun made a devastated expression as he woke up in the bedroom on the top floor of the Delta building.
He had always woken up to Hayun's bright smile.
However, he wasn't able to see it today.
Once he returned to reality from the dream, his strange state disappeared with Hayun's smile. Now, that she wasn't here, Kang-jun felt a deep emptiness.
This emptiness wasn't the problem.
It was the thought of never seeing Hayun again that he couldn't stand.
'I can't lose Hayun.'
It was the same for Colt, Shakan and Keljark.
'I will get them back even if I have to negotiate with the Celestial World.'
It would certainly be possible.
One way to get them back was releasing Luminael in exchange for them.
However, that was impossible in reality.
He would only be able to get in touch with the Celestial World in Hwanmong.
'I don't have time anymore.'
He wanted to return to the world of Hwanmong as soon as possible, so the three days felt like a long time.
It had only been one hour in reality, but it felt like years had passed.
Even without Hayun, it was likely that no harm would happen to his body while he slept.
Kang-jun had already spread a variety of magics and wards around the house and bedroom that would trigger when hostile presences appeared.
As a result, even transcendents wouldn't be able to enter here.
Moreover, even if a chaos being had appeared and destroyed Kang-jun's body, the Kang-jun in Hwanmong wouldn't die.
It was because once he had reached transcendence, he was no longer bound to his body.
In other words, his body in Earth was the passageway from Hwanmong to Earth, but his life wasn't influenced by the body.
Kang-jun could even recreate his flesh.
The chaos ability could be used on Earth as well as in Hwanmong.
In extreme terms, even the destruction of Earth wouldn't affect Kang-jun's abilities.
However, if Earth disappeared, he would suffer a psychological loss.
After that, he would live forward in Hwanmong without going back and forth between reality and Hwanmong.
Even so, Kang-jun hadn't told Hayun this. It was because Hayun was proud about protecting Kang-jun.
Kang-jun didn't want to take away Hayun's joy.
This was also Kang-jun's joy. There was only one thing he wanted to see first when he returned to reality and that was Hayun's bright smile.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the reason why he returned to reality was Hayun.
However, Hayun had been caught by the Celestial World. If she was a human, she would be dead.
'She is surely alive.'
Kang-jun would give a warning to the Celestial World to make sure this wouldn't happen twice in the future. It would be the same for the demonic Gods as well.
Kang-jun sat on the roof of the Delta building and stared at the clouds, waiting for time to pass.
He had no thoughts about eating or doing anything.
After some time passed...
Chiing!
The Skia rang.
-Lord, it is me, Han Yeon-soo.
In fact, she was Crodin, the black dragon who was in charge of the Black Dragon Law Firm that influenced Earth from the shadows.
Of course, she was also one of Kang-jun's household members.
Fortunately, the Celestial World hadn't caught Crodin as well.
"What's going on?"
Kang-jun was very glad to hear from Han Yeon-soo.
Other than Kang-jun, she was the only other alien being on this earth.
-There is something strange regarding the aliens.
'Aliens. What's going on?'
Kang-jun summoned Han Yeon-soo immediately.
Han Yeon-soo panicked as she suddenly appeared on top of the Delta building, but she then smiled carefully.
She knew of Kang-jun's abilities, so summoning an awakened dragon, who was part of his household, was nothing to him.
"I greet Lord."
She fell to one knee in front of Kang-jun. Kang-jun nodded and asked,
"Aliens. Are there aliens coming for Earth?"
"That is my guess. Actually, I activated a magic called Watcher's Eye around the earth and solar system. That way I can handle any annoying enemies before they get close to Earth."
She had set up hundreds of warp points in this solar system.
Each of those warp points contained a wide-range detection magic called Watcher's Eye, allowing her to know when enemies approached.
"Suddenly, they all disappeared yesterday."
"The hundreds of Watcher's Eyes are gone?"
"Yes. So, I have to think that something is aiming for Earth."
"I think so as well."
Kang-jun nodded. Someone had released the magic of Han Yeon-soo, who was an awakened dragon.
What type of power was coming from outer space?
Furthermore, why so suddenly?
It could be a coincidence, but Kang-jun didn't think so.
It was obviously related to the Celestial World or demonic Gods.
Setting the demonic Gods aside...
Would the Celestial World do such a thing?
In the past, he would have thought it was ridiculous, but Kang-jun could no longer trust anything in this world.
The advanced angel, Luminael, had done such an unscrupulous thing to Hayun and the others.
Anyway, it didn't matter who it was.
The war had already started with both sides.
'I just want some quiet time in reality, but even in here, they won't leave me alone. Do they really want to try it?'
He didn't need to guess who was behind this.
It would come out when he grabbed and questioned the ones attacking.
At that time, Han Yeon-soo spoke with a sullen expression,
"I didn't want to hassle you while you were busy in Hwanmong, so I tried to tell Shakan. However, I couldn't get in touch with him. I couldn't even call Hayun."
In fact, she had tried to discuss the issue with Shakan.
Not long ago, Shakan had appeared in front of her. He had told her that Kang-jun was busy in Hwanmong and she should call him regarding any problems related to Earth.
Han Yeon-soo had been shocked at the time.
She had joined Shakan's camp to fight in the war against Keljark's side, so she had been beyond surprised after meeting him on Earth.
She had learnt that not only was he a friend of Kang-jun but that he also owned a pork belly store near Seoul University.
Even more remarkably, one of the guests that often went there to eat meat had been Keljark.
As Han Yeon-soo stared at her in disbelief, Keljark had simply laughed and placed a pork wrapped in lettuce into her mouth.
She had told Han Yeon-soo, "I am living quietly, so pretend you don't know."
Han Yeon-soo had agreed. She had been surprised that Shakan and Keljark were friends as well as the fact that Keljark was friends with Kang-jun.
Anyway, Han Yeon-soo felt that some of the burden on her was lifted after learning that the two transcendents, Shakan and Keljark, were guarding Earth. However, strangely, Shakan hadn't been seen since yesterday. She couldn't reach him at all. She had gone to the chicken house run by Keljark, but they weren't there.
It was the same for Hayun.
In the end, she gave up and reported it to Kang-jun. Kang-jun laughed bitterly.
"Something has happened. They'll be back soon, so don't worry."
Kang-jun wasn't worried about the unidentified beings attacking Earth. As soon as he heard Han Yeon-soo's words, he opened his chaos ability and found traces of them.
There was one stronger existence among them. They were stronger than an awakened dragon but far distant from a transcendent.
Therefore, there was nothing for Kang-jun to feel tense about.
He said with a laugh,
"I'll handle the invaders, so don't worry any more. You must have gone through a lot of trouble worrying about this alone."
She was so touched that tears formed.
"It is hard work, but it is my natural duty. By the way, have you eaten Lord?"
"I'm not hungry."
"Hayun will be sad if you miss meals."
Han Yeon-soo no longer cared about Earth's safety as her lord said that he would handle the problem.
She knew that Kang-jun was stronger than a transcendent, so she now felt pity towards the unidentified beings.
"I am happy to cook."
"I appreciate it, but it isn't needed."
He had always eaten the food Hayun had packed. Suddenly, a bunch of dishes made by Hayun, which were being stored in the Skia space, popped into his head.
Hayun's Beans Sprout Soup x13.
Hayun's Pollack Soup x 11.
Hayun's Bowl of Rice x82.
Hayun's Ramyun x30.
······
He chose the ramyun. Of course, the ramyun was a finished dish.
Eating a bowl of it recovered his health, but the effects of such buffs were now meaningless.
He just ate it whenever he wanted to.
Once he saw the dishes, his appetite reappeared.
'Yes. I'll have one bowl of ramyun.'
A bowl of ramyun immediately appeared before Kang-jun.
"Wah! This is?"
Han Yeon-soo's eyes widened with surprise. Of course, she wasn't surprised because something had suddenly popped out of the Skia space.
The Skia was a present that she had given to Kang-jun.
Her eyes widened because she guessed who had cooked it.
It was the same Hayun's cooking but placed in another dimension.
"Hayun made this."
"Do you want to eat?"
"If you want to give it to me, then of course."
Kang-jun pulled out another bowl with ease and handed it to Han Yeon-soo.
"Thank you, Lord."
Han Yeon-soo exclaimed with an earnest expression. Kang-jun brought a table and chairs up to the roof to make it easier to eat.
Additionally, kimchi couldn't be forgotten.
"Please enjoy, Lord."
"Thank you. It is good to not dine alone."
Kang-jun was about to raise the chopsticks to his mouth when he frowned suddenly.
When he thought about it, there was one thing he needed to do first.
Suuk.
Immediately, a bizarre form was summoned near Kang-jun and Han Yeon-soo.
It was approximately three meters in height.
Its whole body was made of metal with two eyes embedded in its head, like blue jewels.
"Who are you?"
Kang-jun asked the creature. At that moment, it flinched and trembled. It was shocked by the unexpected situation and stared at Kang-jun with fright.
"Amazing. There is a person who can summon me forcibly. Was there such a presence on Earth?"
It was an unknown alien language, but Kang-jun heard it as Korean.
Kang-jun smiled coldly.
"Then?"
"I am Kiradak from the Valles Planet. I came to Earth to conquer it, but I didn't know there was a presence like you here. If I had known, I would have never come to Earth."
Kiradak was perplexed as he showed no sign of confidence in his abilities. Kang-jun smiled coldly.
"You are trying to trick me. Tell me who is behind this. I can feel that there is someone behind

you who gave you this idea."
"...!"
Kiradak was surprised. In fact, the ruler of the Valles Planet hadn't even known there was a planet called Earth.
They were a civilization that combined magic and machinery.
Then the magicians, who had been studying magic, managed to open a dimensional door and a being they couldn't afford to offend emerged.
The name of the God was Lepris.
All the people on the planet, including Kiradak, treated Lepris as a God from then on.
Kiradak had accepted Lepris' order to invade Earth.
As soon as a strange light emitted from Kang-jun's eyes, Kiradak spoke about everything he knew.
No, it was some kind of transfer that wasn't spoken out loud.
The knowledge was transmitted to Kang-jun's head like a digital file.
He now knew the coordinates of the Valles Planet as well as their magical knowledge.
'So, the one behind it is called Lepris. Is he a demonic God?'
However, a demonic God wouldn't do something as childish as sending troops to invade the planet.
They would come and devour Earth themselves.
If Lepris was a demonic God, Earth would have already disappeared without a trace.
'Well, I'll see once I go there.'
Kang-jun cut off Kiradak's ring finger which was tied to Lepris.
Kiradak was shocked. He had always felt the presence of Lepris who controlled his mind.
He had taken it for granted that Lepris was a God, but Kang-jun let him discover that he was mistaken.
At that time, Kang-jun glanced at Kiradak and exclaimed,
"Kiradak! Regardless of the reason, you tried to attack Earth. If I wasn't here, Earth would have been destroyed by you. Therefore, my punishment is to turn the Valles Planet into ashes."
Kiradak trembled and begged,
"P-please forgive me. Vent your anger against me as I am the ruler. Just please, leave the Valles Planet alone..."
Kang-jun was silent for a moment. They had come to Earth with the intention to destroy it, so it was right that he destroy theirs.
However, Earth hadn't been touched yet. They had been caught by Kang-jun before the crime.
At that moment, Kang-jun's personality as a sovereign fired up again. He had made demon kings join his household, so there was no reason why he couldn't acquire the ruler of an alien planet.
Moreover, Kiradak's power was quasi-transcendent!
He was above an awakened dragon who, until now, could be called Kang-jun's strongest subordinate.
It was because Shakan and Keljark were friends, rather than household members.
"Then join my household and swear your eternal loyalty to me."
"I will accept. I will serve Lord along with the Valles Planet."
Thus, Kiradak, the ruler of Valles Planet which was far from Earth, joined Kang-jun's household.
At that moment, Han Yeon-soo spoke,
"Lord, the ramyun is getting cold."
"I'll be back soon, so just wait a moment."
Kang-jun boarded Kiradak's ship.
It was a huge space warship with advanced technology that couldn't be detected by earth's current science.
There were dozens of similar warships waiting near Mars.
It wasn't unreasonable for them to be able to take control of Earth. Kang-jun had absorbed Kiradak's knowledge, so he knew this well.
'If they knew these ships were here, Earth would be turned upside down.'
Once again, ignorance was bliss.
That was the truth.
Anyway, everything that threatened the planet had now become Kang-jun's property.
'If this knowledge is given to Earth, there would be a golden age.'
However, that was something to think about in the future.
"Move to Valles Planet."
"Yes, Lord."
Upon receiving Kang-jun's order, Kiradak warped all of the warships to a point near Valles Planet.
The size of Valles was similar to Earth.
"Lepris will be in the temple, Lord."
Kang-jun headed toward the temple instantly.
'Is there no one?'
Did Lepris flee in the meantime? The door to the temple was destroyed.
It must have been destroyed at the same time that someone had escaped through the dimensional door.
Then Kang-jun could see writing scratched into the ground.
-You found this place, Lucan.
However, the Earth you care about will perish.
Additionally, everything you've accomplished in Hwanmong will disappear.
That is the punishment for enraging Karosio.
'Goddess of Destruction Karosio!'
Lepris was one of Karosio's household members.
'Is Karosio aiming for Earth?'
So, she wanted to destroy Earth in reality as well as in Hwanmong!
However, Kang-jun wasn't worried.
'Now that I know, I can prepare.'
The Goddess of Destruction and the demonic Gods could only attack Earth in reality by appearing as divine beings to other planets. They couldn't attack Earth directly.
Kang-jun called Kiradak and ordered,
"You will protect Earth with your men. Get rid of anyone suspicious who tries to approach."
"Yes, Lord."
That wasn't all.
Kang-jun left his clone with Kiradak.
His clone was able to exert the strength of a quasi-transcendent.
In fact, the clone should have one third of the attack power of the main body, but unfortunately, it couldn't be sustained with chaos power.
It was limited to the Wings of Chaos.
Still, his clone was the strongest among the quasi-transcendents.
So, unless a chaos or transcendent being came to Earth directly, all the enemies would be scattered into dust.
'Goddess of Destruction, Karosio! Just you wait. Sooner or later, I will trap you in the sealing world as well.'
Then Kang-jun hurriedly returned to the roof of the Delta building.
'Oh, it must be cold.'
It only took approximately 10 minutes to travel millions of light years to Valles Planet.
However, that was enough time for the ramyun to turn cold.
Fortunately, Han Yeon-soo had maintained his ramyun in a perfect state. It was in a state where he could eat it without blowing on it.
She had also waited for Kang-jun before raising her chopsticks. Kang-jun smiled.
"Now, let's eat."
"Yes."
Slurp. Slurrp.
It was very tasty.
Since then, until the door to Hwanmong opened, Kang-jun continued to take out the food Hayun had made.
He didn't intend to eat them sparingly.
Hayun would be back before the dishes in the space were gone.
He would make it so.
[The door to Hwanmong is open.]
After returning to Hwanmong, Kang-jun entered the sealing world instantly.
The advanced angel, Luminael, was trapped there.
As Kang-jun entered, Luminael opened his eyes from where he was lying on the ground as though he was dead.
