Chapter 111.2
by AfuhfuihgsMeanwhile, at the Central Tower.
Head Principal Lee Doo-hee’s hand shook as she gripped her tablet PC.
The growing support for Ahn Woo-jin was now tugging at the balance of public opinion.
“Those stupid brats, just blindly believing whatever the media spews…! Damn fools…!”
“Should we intervene? Or divert attention with a different issue?”
“The situation’s gotten too big. If we do something like that now, it’ll backfire. We need to beat Ahn Woo-jin first, then clean everything up…! That will settle things down.”
The Head Principal spoke firmly.
“Charge Mayeon High with treason immediately and deploy all standby forces to reinforce the Martial Law Guards.”
“Yes, understood.”
Meanwhile, in the Center Area.
The top forces under the Federal Council’s Black Ops, the Spartoi, emerged and took positions.
Combat forces from Hanyang Federal Academy formed up, channeling their magic power.
Facing Woo-jin’s overwhelming magic, which felt like it could crush skin, everyone was scared but determined.
If they failed to stop this man, Neo Seoul would fall.
“What’s the ETA on reinforcements!?”
“They
’ll arrive in one minute!”
Reports were exchanged inside the Martial Law Guards.
Then—
“Are we late!?”
Forces from several major academies joined the Martial Law Guards.
Three prominent academies.
“Saein High, Dojeong High, Goshin High! Support forces led by the Student Council Presidents of each academy have all joined!”
On the rooftop of a building near the Central Tower.
The secretary reported to the President of Hanyang Federal Academy’s Student Council.
Saein High School.
Dojeong High School.
Goshin High School.
The power players of these major academies, the Student Council Presidents renowned in the city, had brought their forces to join the Martial Law Guards.
As these academies were responsible for the self-governing districts of Neo Seoul, their power was not something anyone could dismiss.
With this, the Center Area became Neo Seoul’s strongest line of defense.
Never before had such a formidable force been assembled.
All to protect Neo Seoul.
And to stop one man, Ahsung High’s Disciplinary Committee Leader, Ahn Woo-jin.
The forces alternated between gazing at the massive rift in the sky over the Center Area and Woo-jin, who brought calamities in his wake, unable to hide their shock.
“It’s like the end of the world….”
It looked like the scene of an apocalypse.
Even with such a formidable force, they couldn’t be sure of victory.
Woo-jin was just that overwhelming.
“Ahsung High’s Disciplinary Committee Leader….”
Lee Taesung, a male student participating with Saein High’s combat force, stared at Woo-jin, feeling crushed by the sheer intensity.
Instinctive fear pounded his heart, making him break out in a cold sweat.
Neo Seoul’s ultimate defense strategy.
Darts.
The target was solely Ahn Woo-jin.
Neo Seoul’s top forces had gathered to take him down.
Woo-jin stopped in front of the Center Area, taking in the Martial Law Guards who had set their sights on him.
The ground around Woo-jin was already barren, utterly devastated by his presence.
A tension that felt like it could tear through flesh hung in the air, bringing a heavy silence. Everyone sensed that the moment someone moved, there would be no turning back.
Even with all their might, they were still unsettled.
Public sentiment was shifting, planting doubts about whether Ahn Woo-jin was truly the city’s enemy.
“President, public opinion is volatile. Since the hijacking by the Goblin and Mayeon High’s Disciplinary Committee Leader and Student Council President, many are demanding the truth be revealed and supporting Ahn Woo-jin….”
“Don’t waver at every little thing. Nothing’s been confirmed yet, so we just do what we must.”
Ultimately, the first to step forward was the Student Council President of Hanyang Federal Academy.
“Ahsung High’s Disciplinary Committee Leader, Ahn Woo-jin!”
The President activated a loudspeaker artifact and shouted at Woo-jin. His voice echoed loudly.
“You’ve committed unforgivable sins! If you really intend to destroy the order of Neo Seoul, you will face the entire city! If you have even a shred of concern for this city, surrender now!!”
Flashing through Woo-jin’s mind were memories he could never forget.
The days of being forced awake and educated through beatings in this world.
Memories of the first precious person he met, Kim Dalbi, and the foolish past when he had to let her go.
The sight of Oh Baek-seo, the person he loved, being pushed to the brink of death.
─ ‘I like you….’
The single phrase Dalbi uttered as she forgot all their memories.
What was so wrong about wanting to live a moderately happy life?
Where was the fault in protecting this city and just wanting to live with the people he loved?
Woo-jin couldn’t stand it anymore.
This damned Academy City, this Head Principal tearing her heart apart, he could no longer tolerate.
Woo-jin’s face twisted in fury.
Like a savage beast.
His lips twitched, his teeth bared and trembling sporadically.
Shadowed eyes.
His eyes, charged with the power of Space Domination, turned into a chilling blend of blue and purple. A 7th Tier’s eyes reflect the colors of their magic.
Having reached the 7th Tier, Woo-jin could wield the power of Space Domination, the power of the Golden Sheep, like an extension of his limbs.
He would not tolerate interference.
Anything that blocked his path would be swept away.
“Ahn Woo-jin… what in the world has driven you to this…?”
The Student Council President’s voice was carried away by the wind.
For whatever reason, this man had become the embodiment of destruction.
No threats, no negotiations would work on Woo-jin now, the President realized.
*Whip.* Woo-jin raised his arm.
*Fwoosh!!*
Once again, Woo-jin’s magic stormed forth, overwhelming the Martial Law Guards. For a moment, they felt as though their bodies were being crushed.
*Boom!!!*
Turquoise lightning forked like tree roots, crashing down across the area like a torrential downpour with deafening thunder.
A massive rift that split the sky exuded intangible magic, pressing down on the area like gravity.
Something incredibly dangerous was approaching.
The Martial Law Guards instinctively sensed that when it arrived, everything would be destroyed.
