Chapter Index

    The orb was placed on a secret altar set up in the forest.

    I quickly recalled the original setting.

    Letisane’s legacy.

    That is a special item used by Letisane, the so-called great wizard, during his heyday.

    There were three types of weapons called the three sacred weapons.

    ‘Letesein’s sword and orb. And there were three mirrors.’

    Even without that item, Letisane was a peak awakener.

    Letisane created a miracle based on those three miracles.

    A dark age when numerous gates were created around the world.

    The Earth was heading towards the era of the end as super-level monsters and dungeons appeared frequently.

    That era was just 30 years ago.

    Letisane was the most active figure during the ten years of the Dark Ages.

    ‘And there were two people below him.’

    They are Song Yu-hwan and Jeon Jeon-ho, the masters of the Apostles of Valhalla.

    Needless to say, Song Yu-hwan’s name has become so great that it cannot be compared to any of the current awakened people.

    Jeon Jeon-ho was a name that is now quite forgotten.

    He is the legendary boss of the underworld.

    Because he was Choi Hana’s father.

    Those three people were called the three master heroes of that era.

    The reputation of those masters has been passed down to modern master heroes.

    ‘Anyway, Letisane’s existence is the reason Song Yu-hwan is obsessed with being number one.’

    Although they were grouped together as three people, the gap was very large at the time.

    Even without the 3 sacred skills, Letisane’s skills are superior.

    Letisane, who possesses the three divine powers, is said to be humanity’s only hope.

    If Letisane’s original true blood really continues.

    It was natural that Song Yu-hwan, a human being, could not follow that bloodline.

    ‘Because of that obsession. Has Song Xia’s misfortune begun?’

    Still, Letisane suddenly disappeared at the end of the Dark Ages.

    After going missing, he became an unknown villain and seems to have developed a relationship with An Yu-min’s mother.

    No one will know that the villain was Letisane.

    Song Yu-hwan probably didn’t have time to worry about Letisane, who disappeared, because he was busy keeping Choi Ha-na’s father, Jeon Jeon-ho, in check.

    After a brief flashback, I quickly retrieved Letisane’s Orb.

    [Use system goods to acquire ownership of the item.]

    Wooow-

    After all, it is a transcendent grade item that cannot even be graded.

    Simply acquiring the item had a different meaning to becoming the true owner of the three sacred weapons.

    [Do you want to deactivate Letisane’s Orb?]

    I disabled the orb for a while.

    For now, ownership has been acknowledged. I cannot completely control the power of the orb.

    ‘If I carelessly use a transcendental item that I cannot handle, I will end up being eaten by the item.’

    This is an item used by Letisane, who transcended humans.

    First of all, I have to become stronger than my current body before I can fully own it.

    ‘At least it will be possible after obtaining the evil eye.’

    But that day is not far away.

    Ha Ye-eun is already looking for the evil eye hidden in a monastery in Seoul.

    Ha Ye-eun was also useful in her own way.

    I took the deactivated orb back into my hand.

    Even the orb that blocked that power was on a different level from the previous orb.

    [The level of magic power skills increases by 2 levels.]

    Even in limited conditions, the effect is amazing.

    I was very satisfied with the explanation.

    ‘First of all, the purpose of this quest has been achieved.’

    I even obtained Letisane’s Orb with the first access.

    And I clearly confirmed Letisane’s will to me.

    Primitive Jinhyeol.

    I was asked to stop An Yu-min, who may wake up and turn into the worst villain.

    ‘The orb was the reward.’

    Moreover, it doesn’t seem like any of the floors above this are open yet. There was no need to stay here any longer.

    I left this space.

    Then, I went down the emergency stairs and carefully joined my group.

    Songxia is probably around the 15th floor.

    To avoid provoking her, I went straight downstairs.

    “Lee Jun-woo? Nothing special happened!”

    And a member of True Opposition there.

    I met Jin Hyeonjun and his group again.

    “Are you okay?”

    A female cadet from Apostles who was with me also spoke to me.

    It was quite different from the look in their eyes when they first confronted them.

    First, he became friendly enough to worry about me.

    I nodded.

    Then Jin Hyun-jun belatedly lowered his head.

    “Thank goodness. Well… thank you. If it weren’t for your help, something big might have happened because of that Lamia.”

    Other cadets followed Jin Hyun-jun and greeted me, saying thank you.

    Actually, for me, I was just using these companions until the Mirror Hotel quest was triggered.

    There was nothing to feel bad about receiving an unexpected thank you.

    ‘Well, even if they are Apostles, not all of them are character wreckers like Yoon Geon-woo.’

    I waited for Song Xia for a moment.

    I’m not really worried though.

    They seemed to be concerned about Songxia as she was the guild leader’s daughter.

    “I don’t think this space is that dangerous. Don’t worry too much. Just as I safely joined you all, Song Xia will arrive soon.”

    At those words, one of the female members who was with Hyunjun Jin cautiously approached me.

    “I see… I see. By the way… if you don’t mind, can I ask you a few questions?”

    Her eyes shined.

    When I nodded, she asked urgently.

    “Um, what is your relationship with Miss Sia? Lady Sia being so close and friendly with a man. I’ve never seen it before!”

    Although he pretended not to hear those words, Jin Hyun-jun also seemed to be secretly waiting for me to speak.

    Song Sia’s presence seemed to be much bigger in Apartheids than I thought.

    “Just friends.”

    “Are you really friends? Miss Sia was famous for not making friends!”

    Because of that fussy reaction, I ended up having a very difficult time.

    ‘If it’s discovered that you and Song Si-ah even kissed, you’ll be in even bigger trouble.’

    It wasn’t until Song Xia joined a little later that I was finally able to escape from the female cadet.

    ***

    A city in Japan.

    Not far from Tokyo, the capital of Japan, Japanese officials were looking at a man.

    The officials who bowed down to that man were the highest ranking officials who could be said to be the head of a country.

    Those politicians showed a very polite attitude towards only one man.

    “We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Chairman for coming in person! Then, please ask.”

    A nearby interpreter quickly translated the politicians’ words to the man.

    A man with short gray hair.

    The size is average. He was a middle-aged man with sad eyes who seemed quite good-natured just by his looks. And he was a handsome man.

    However, the middle-aged man only nodded as if the polite greeting was very natural.

    He didn’t even make eye contact with their greetings and turned his body with an arrogant movement.

    It was a rude gesture that might have been very insulting to the leaders of a country.

    Their reaction was just the opposite.

    My whole body was shaking like an aspen tree.

    Everyone seemed to be afraid of that man.

    ‘It’s not strange.’

    A high-ranking official of the Apostle of Valhalla and assistant to the guild leader, who was standing near the interpreter.

    Kim Ji-hoon was watching that scene without saying a word.

    Then he approached the man whom the officials feared and bowed his head politely.

    “Chairman. Here it is.”

    The gray-haired man called the Chairman nodded.

    The weapon he held was a spear.

    When the spear was grabbed, it made a sound as if the air around it was being torn apart.

    And the blood-red liquid that began to be summoned around the window began to move like a writhing snake.

    “Huh…”

    Although I didn’t even swing that spear.

    The mana pressure created from that spear swept the surroundings.

    The highest-ranking officials were unable to properly control their bodies, as if they had been caught in the middle of a typhoon.

    The bodyguards who appeared to be awakened hurriedly protected him.

    Even the security guard could not hide his surprised expression as he looked at the man called the chairman.

    “It’s not a big deal. I’ll get it sorted out soon.”

    However, the chairman’s voice was as calm as if he was taking a walk.

    The monster the chairman is going hunting now is an S-class monster.

    Considering that the only monsters more powerful than that are the transcendent level that appeared in the Dark Ages.

    It was a high-level monster that would make even today’s master heroes nervous.

    ‘That’s why the Japanese leadership earnestly called the chairman here.’

    Jihoon Kim, he also has an A+ level hunter license.

    I don’t have the confidence to face S-class monsters alone.

    But that chairman a few hours ago. I spoke lightly to myself on the plane to Tokyo.

    – S-class monsters would be very fun to spar with. I haven’t wielded a spear properly in a while.

    If other heroes had said something like that, I would have thought it was a bluff.

    To that man, it wasn’t bluff.

    A man who has reached the pinnacle of becoming a master hero.

    And an apostle of Valhalla, known as the world’s top guild.

    The guild leader of that huge guild was that man, Song Yu-hwan.

    Not even an hour has passed.

    When Song Yu-hwan came back, it was the same as when he left.

    He didn’t have a single wound.

    Even though he was wearing a suit, not a hunter uniform, his clothes were neat.

    “It was boring. Even though I deliberately used only the power of Jinhyeol that had not yet been properly integrated. The monster was less powerful than I thought.”

    Kim Ji-hoon got goosebumps at Song Yu-hwan’s words.

    Although the level of awakened people in other countries is not as high as in Korea.

    It was a monster that even famous Japanese heroes could not handle, causing numerous casualties.

    I heard that you couldn’t even approach the realized dungeon area, let alone the boss monster.

    But Song Yu-hwan was different.

    He threw the heart of the boss monster he was holding nearby.

    “Crimson Teeth. I wish that Unknown guy was more interesting. Don’t you think so? Secretary Kim?”

    “Yes! Chairman!”

    Kim Ji-hoon hastily answered.

    Soon, Japanese officials approached Song Yu-hwan and gave him another very polite greeting.

    Song Yu-hwan didn’t seem to have the slightest interest.

    He is also on the verge of taking over the entire Awakened powerhouse called Korea.

    The description of him as a powerful man and an absolute strongman was not an exaggeration.

    ‘Not only that. Chairman… the world ruled by the awakened…’

    Kim Ji-hoon, who knew of Song Yu-hwan’s great plan, trembled for a moment.

    Hiding my excitement inside, I followed Song Yu-hwan again.

    After a while, Song Yu-hwan and Kim Ji-hoon boarded the plane.

    And Kim Ji-hoon reported the upcoming schedule to Song Yu-hwan, who was leaning on the seat.

    “Chairman. Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the Cadet Competition held at Theia Academy. The opening ceremony speech there…”

    “Ah. okay. I said that my beloved daughter would also participate in the competition. With Sia’s precious friends. This is a very desirable thing.”

    Song Yu-Hwan was smiling a kind smile.

    Even while talking about his biological daughter, his eyes did not smile at all.

    “Theia Academy… Yes… Theia Academy.”

    And Song Yu-hwan, whose expression soon changed to a cold expression, repeated the name of a man.

    “Letyssain… where dear Letyssain’s ark operates.”

    Kim Ji-hoon became nervous when he heard the word Letisane.

    He is Song Yu-hwan’s assistant.

    As such, he knew very well how tied Song Yu-hwan was to Letisane.

    Also, he is a person who will do anything to obtain Letisane’s three sacred powers.

    And that night.

    Kim Ji-hoon, who was working overtime for tomorrow’s work, checked an interesting report that had been posted to him.

    “There is a man who became friends with Miss Sia?”
