Chapter 110.1

Chapter 110 – Rule 31: The Leader Restores Order in Academy City (12)

The heart of Neo Seoul.

An emergency evacuation order was issued for the Center Area.

As if an earthquake were tearing everything apart.

As if a tsunami were sweeping away everything in its path.

As if a typhoon were blowing everything away.

Following the guidance of the Martial Law Guards, citizens began to evacuate urgently.

There were relatively fewer citizens needing evacuation compared to other districts.

The Center Area was the administrative core of the city, far from residential zones, and many citizens had already left when martial law was first declared.

However, the suddenness of the evacuation order threw the area into chaos.

Rumble!!

An immense magical power engulfed Neo Seoul.

The sky split apart, and from afar, a massive storm filled with turquoise thunder and lightning began to approach. At this, the citizens screamed and hastened their escape.

A natural disaster was coming.

One with intent.

The most dangerous entity in this city.

A boy who once upheld law and justice to protect his homeland and enjoy a happy future had now become the avatar of destruction.

Rumble!!

Clank!!

Clank!!

The Center Area’s emergency defense system activated.

Firepower concentration sequence engaged.

The Center Area entered defense mode to protect the Central Tower and the Head Principal.

Buildings around the Central Tower transformed, revealing massive weaponry including heavy artillery from the ground and buildings. It was a grand battle mode.

The entire area itself had become a weapon.

“……”

To Ahn Woo-jin, everything protecting the Head Principal was an obstacle.

His approach was deliberately threatening to destroy the administrative center and the forces protecting the Head Principal, buying time for citizens to escape.

“What… is that…?”

The Martial Law Guards stationed in the city were converging on the Center Area. They gaped in awe at Woo-jin.

They couldn’t be sure if they could withstand the magic emanating from this one person.

“They said ‘White’ would intervene. Our strongest force. So don’t be afraid… If we can’t stop that, this city is finished…!”

A fellow Spartoi spoke with fierce determination.

The codename ‘White,’ symbolizing cleansing everything into pure white, referred to Seo Gang-jin, the strongest among the Spartoi and a 7th Tier. The name was known only within their ranks.

With him stepping in, the Martial Law Guards clung to hope.

Meanwhile, part of the Martial Law Guards had positioned themselves inside the Central Tower.

“That’s the 7th Tier…?”

Head Principal Lee Doo-hee watched the figure approaching, holding overwhelming magic and tearing the sky apart.

With every step, the ground crumbled, buildings collapsed, debris flew, storms raged, and thunder roared.

No ordinary human could stand before such a sight without trembling in fear.

Even the Head Principal was no exception.

Her trembling hands were not signs of old age but a long-forgotten fear of death.

“That power… I can’t even fathom its depth…? It’s absurd….”

The Head Principal scoffed in disbelief.

Woo-jin’s magic was of extremely high purity. With each step up the tiers, his growth was unlike anyone else.

Currently, though at the 7th Tier, Woo-jin was far beyond the initial level of the 7th Tier.

He was practically the pinnacle existence of the 7th Tier.

“My eyes were not wrong. I simply didn’t realize that this boy was an adversary greater than Goliath…! That was my fatal mistake…!”

“Head Principal.”

Spartoi Son Ye-seo, who was standing behind, tried to calm her, but the Head Principal couldn’t contain her agitation.

“Child, why do you think that brat is deliberately walking all the way here? A guy who can leap through space at will…!”

“Is he underestimating us?”

“No. No…! That bastard intends to utterly crush everything related to me. It’s certain he knows this place, the Center Area, was made to protect me…!”

The Head Principal gripped the end of the armrest with trembling hands, her eyes glaring at her new enemy.

“That bastard… I must crush him with everything I have…!”

This was the final battlefield.

The Head Principal was now certain that Ahn Woo-jin, not Goliath, was the ultimate opponent she should have crushed with all her might.

“Is that so…? Hmm?”

At that moment, Ye-seo received a call on her smartphone.

“…Hmm.”

After hanging up and checking the internet, Ye-seo furrowed her brow for the first time.

“Head Principal, I have something to report.”

“What is it?”

“Public opinion… is turning in a negative direction.”

Ye-seo operated her tablet PC and handed it to the Head Principal. The moment the Head Principal saw the screen, veins bulged on her forehead.

“So, they’ve finally… decided to make this entertaining, haven’t they, those mere discardable pawns…!”

The Head Principal scoffed in anger.

—

Several minutes earlier.

“Hmm?”

Han Seo-jin and Moon Chae-won sensed a familiar magic from behind. Turning around, they saw an unexpected figure.

Chae-won laughed like someone watching a funny video.

“Pfft…! You’ve finally caught up, Vice Leader?”
