Judge Achan was someone who cared for and loved the Battle God, to the point that he swore his eternal allegiance to the god. He was also among the strong figures who stood by his side. The Battle God also cared deeply for Achan. After all, there were only a few men who had such a pure and loyal heart.
The problem was that Achan had a very hot temper. An impulsive man whose body moved before his mind could think. He had encountered many small problems because of this.
The Battle God gave him the title of a judge and sent Achan far away, saying that he should go and investigate the Six Monster Gods. The Battle God would have loved to have Achan by his side. But whenever he thought about the small incidents that this man had caused him, he could not help but feel his head throb.
Thus, true to his character, Achan said, “It seems like the Beyond the Heavens’ King and kingdom are really pathetic, huh?”
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
The moment Achan said those words, the people who had been laughing and talking amongst themselves suddenly turned to look at him. There was a sharp glint in the eyes of the old man with a head of black hair, who had just been knocking on his head with the comb on his hands.
The boy with an intellectual disability was huffing and puffing as he looked at Achan. Even the beautiful girl with silver hair that resembled a snake was looking at him with a pointed look.
The man, who was chewing on a stand of hay, tilted his head and looked at him as if he had heard him wrong. Even the fisherman who was carrying a net on his back placed his luggage down with a tense look on his face.
There was also the man named Luo, who had forgotten to bring 3,000 gold to buy some bungeoppang. He pulled up the mask that was resting on his chin until it covered everything below his eyes.
“…?”
Achan finally realized that he had a slip of the tongue in the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom’s territory.
‘What the hell is wrong with these pathetic people?!’
Initially, he had thought they were nothing but ordinary people who worked as fishermen, livestock farmers, potion manufacturers and the like. They were unlikely to be important enough to meet their king.
“Ah. I was careless with my words.” Achan raised his hand, an embarrassed look flashing on his face.
Then, at that moment, another person appeared.
“Love, Hope, Happiness! Come, fetch!”
Someone threw a ball for the dog, which flew past Achan.
Vwooooooooong—
However, Achan found it strange. The size of the ball was very unusual.
‘Why is the ball as big as a watermelon?’
By the time the thought flashed in his head, the ground was already trembling.
Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud—
“Grrrrrrrrr!”
“Graaaaaaaa!”
“Roaaaaaar!”
Something moved frantically, flying past Achan and biting on the ball that was thrown a bit earlier.
Fwiiiiiiish—
The ball immediately deflated and shrunk as the animal bit it and ran back to where it came from.
“Goodness, our dear Love, Hope and Happiness. Come on, give it to daddy… Keooook!”
The man, who came running after the creature for a hug, was sent flying back after getting hit by the charging dog.
‘Which part of that looks like Love, Happiness and Hope?!!!’
Achan looked horrified. However, that was not yet the end.
Clang—
A dark-skinned boy came out while taking off the rubber gloves on his hands. “Phew. I finally finished the three tons of dirty dishes that we had today.”
‘…Three tons?!’
Achan could not help but be shocked.
‘They ordered that little boy to wash three tons of dirty dishes?!’
He felt anger surge within him.
“The Beyond the Heavens’ King is truly pathetic.”
Achan’s idea of a good ruler was someone who thought of the masses. That little boy doing three tons of dishes in a single day must mean that the king did not place any emphasis on welfare! There was even a man who believed that a three-headed creature was a pet dog.
Everyone’s eyes turned to Achan once again the moment those words escaped his lips. Up until then, the entire plaza was boisterous and noisy. However, the moment he said those words, silence engulfed them as all of the people who were walking on the street stopped and stared at him.
Then, the old man with a head of black hair said, “Hey, look here, how dare you belittle His Majesty like that, huh?”
The man, who seemed to be a fisherman, looked at him fiercely. “Who are you? How dare you talk shit about His Majesty?”
Achan’s face turned ugly. “I should go and meet with the Beyond the Heavens King to berate him myself. How dare he force a little boy to do three tons of dishes in a day?!”
The furious Achan huffed as he began to move. “And you?! You are all staying still after seeing this?! After seeing a little boy get exploited and forced to do labor?! I will personally meet with that king…”
But before Achan could even finish his words, the old man had already appeared in front of him and grabbed him by the wrist. “I can’t let you see His Majesty.”
Achan’s face grew even uglier. Even if he was unaware of the inner workings of this kingdom, all he wanted was to try and do something for the poor and pathetic people. He was the only one thinking about their welfare!
‘How dare this old man grab me by the wrist?’
Achan immediately pulled his sword out.
‘…I can’t move?’
To his dismay, Achan realized that he could not move the arm that was being held by the old man. Was it because the old man was using force on him? That was not the case at all.
“You look like a traveler. I say, you should stop kicking up a fuss. His Majesty’s kingdom is very beautiful…”
Before the old man could finish his words, Achan put some strength in his wrists and pulled away from the old man. Achan was the Battle God’s Judge. As the Battle God’s Judge, his power was of a much higher level than that of ordinary gods.
Also, Achan was an arrogant man. He could do what he wanted to do. So, he stretched his hand out and tried to grab the old man’s neck. However, the old man moved faster than him.
Boom—
The old man’s fist slammed straight into the pit of his stomach, forcing Achan to take a few steps back.
“…?!”
Achan, the successor of the War God, was shocked by the power of this black-haired old man.
‘What the hell is up with this old man?’
Shiiiiiing—
Achan grabbed the hilt of his sword and pulled it out. Then, he swung it like crazy toward the old man. However, the old man was able to easily evade all of the attacks that Achan had released.
Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang—
At that moment, chains suddenly appeared and wrapped around Achan’s ankles, stopping him from moving.
“Move one more step, and you’ll lose your feet,” the Great Pirate Gorfido, someone who painted the seas red and brought horror to everyone, spoke coldly.
‘The fisherman…?’
Achan looked at the man in doubt as he swung his sword and tried to break the chains.
Clank!
The chain could not withstand the force of his attack and broke loose. Achan immediately leaped to the skies. However, the dark-skinned boy was already up there. He was riding a white wolf and moving toward Achan.
“Roaaaaaaaar!”
“…”
The ‘pitiful’ boy, who washed three tons of dishes, rode on his white wolf and slammed into Achan. Forced to land on the ground once again, Achan could not help but look at the sky in disbelief.
“What the hell is this kingdom…”
An old man, who looked like he was too weak to hold his own chopsticks, punched him in the gut. He even allowed a mere fisherman to attack him. And there was also that dishwashing boy, who turned out to be the owner of a divine beast.
However, none of that mattered. Achan was the War God’s Descendant.
[The War God’s Battle Energy is rising!!!]
Vwooooooooooong—
The killing intent that slowly spread out from his body began to envelop those that were around him. Achan’s ego had been hurt. He was kept in check by a mere fisherman, an old grandpa, and a little boy.
Baaaaaaaaaaaang—
Achan shot forward toward the old man, his speed not visible to the naked eye.
Shwaaaaaaaa—
Then, at that moment, a spear made of light appeared in front of the old man. The old man promptly grabbed the spear and stabbed toward the charging Achan’s body, launching multiple thrusts. This time, Achan was fully prepared. He was able to fully defend himself against those attacks.
[The One that Restrains.]
Suddenly, light stretched out from the tip of the beautiful snake-like girl’s finger and wrapped around Achan’s body.
[You have fallen into a one-second stunned state.]
“…!”
Achan was once again in shock. He was among those with the highest resistance against abnormal status among the gods. Because of that, there were only a select few abnormal conditions that worked on his body. However, he had somehow fallen into a one-second stunned state.
‘Who the hell is that girl…’
Then, the old man’s spear stabbed all over Achan’s body once again.
Stab— Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab—
“Keuhaaaaaack!” A shriek escaped Achan’s mouth, who was in disbelief, as he got trampled on the ground.
‘How can this be? He’s nothing but an old man…’
On the other hand, Achan could not help but slowly acknowledge the existence of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom.
‘A mere old man is very powerful in this nation? And it’s not just him, there’s also that fisherman, that little girl and that young boy that washes the dishes!’
[You, the Battle God’s Judge, is currently judging and evaluating the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom.]
[You are slowly recognizing the existence of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom.]
Indeed, much to his chagrin, Achan could not help but acknowledge and admit the existence of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom. However, he still had to maintain the pride of the Battle God’s Judge. He could not allow himself to be easily beaten by these people.
[War God’s Authority.]
Achan called upon the power that he once used when he was still the War God’s Descendant, increasing his own power by 1.5x and transferring the power to his sword, allowing him to cut down anything.
Flaaaaaash—
Achan, who had been lying on the ground, jumped up and shot toward the old man.
Clang— Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang—
Finally, Achan forced the old man to go on the defensive.
“Hoho. What an amazing friend.”
Flaaaaash—
Achan looked at the old man in wonder. Why was he still moving leisurely despite being forced on the defensive? Achan raised his sword and aimed for the old man’s neck.
“I can’t allow this to go on any further.”
Baaaaaaaaaaang—
Achan’s body fell forward as an indescribable pain gnawed at his entire body, down to his very bones.
The gigantic and muscular livestock farmer had smacked Achan on the back of his head. Even though the man had just smacked him on the head, Achan could not get his senses together. He scurried to stand up from the ground. Before he could even do so, the livestock farmer had already moved at lightning speed. And with his bare fist, he began to punch the proud and arrogant Achan.
Punch— punch, punch, punch, punch— Boom— Boom, boom, boom, boom—
“Keuaaaaaaaack!” Achan screamed. The man’s fists moved so fast that he could not even see them with his naked eye. But that was not all; the force behind those punches was so strong that all he could do was scream loudly.
[You are surprised beyond belief. You can only acknowledge the existence of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom!]
Even though his body was screaming from the pain, as the judge, he could not help but acknowledge the kingdom in front of him. Even this kingdom’s livestock farmers were this strong?!
‘It, it seems like they are a lot better than the Luvien Empire…’
Of course, this conclusion was only made since Achan had only seen one side of them. Then, at that moment, Achan saw a man running toward them. Achan realized that he was the Beyond the Heavens’ King.
The Beyond the Heavens King would have surely heard a notification the moment Achan entered the territory, like this, ‘The Battle God’s Judge will begin the examination.’.
The Battle God was great and mighty. His name carried a lot of weight. The king of a nation would definitely come running and stop his people from beating Achan up and probably even help him stand up and shake the dirt off of his body. Achan was even sure that he would condemn these ordinary folk who made him suffer like this.
Minhyuk, who came running at record speed, asked, “Grandpa, what’s the matter?”
Then, Ben explained what happened one after another. Of course, Achan knew that he had been a little arrogant when he first came in here. However, once they knew who he was, they would definitely understand why he acted that way.
“What? He cursed me, spoke ill of me out of the blue, and even attacked Grandpa Ben when you tried to stop him?!”
“Hoho. That’s about right, Your Majesty.”
“No, then isn’t he a bad guy?!”
“???”
Achan could not understand. He was sure that the man in front of him already knew that he was the Battle God’s Judge.
“So what if you’re the Battle God’s Judge? What the hell? You came to someone else’s kingdom and laid your hands on my people?!”
“???”
That was right. The man obviously knew who he was.
“Your Majesty, what should we do?”
“Teach him a lesson. Just make sure not to kill him and then send him back.”
“…?”
Immediately after that, all of the people present began to beat Achan up.
Punch, punch. Stomp, stomp! Bang, bang, bang!
“Heuk! Ack! Urk! Hiiik! Keoooook!”
***
The board members and executives of Joy Co. Ltd. flocked to the conference room once again despite their busy schedules. Since they were the pillars of the company, they just could not sit idly by and watch the monitor all day. That was why they had to get back to work and could only rush back whenever there was something important happening.
Following President Kang Taehoon’s orders, they set up and turned on the monitor.
They watched as the ex-War God’s descendant, Battle God’s Judge Achan knelt before the Battle God.
Meanwhile, the board members and executives could not help but wonder as they looked at Achan through the screen.
“What’s the matter with Achan’s face?”
“It looks like someone beat him up?”
Indeed, Achan’s face was all puffed up. It was obvious that he had been pummeled.
Not long after, the contents of the report that Achan had made for the evaluation appeared on the screen in front of them.
[Battle God’s Judge Achan has evaluated that the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom is far superior to the Luvien Empire.]
“…?”
“???”
“???”
Then, Achan bowed deeper and prostrated himself on the ground as he spoke.
[Battle God, the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom’s old man is as strong as a god. Their fisherman has transcended the limits of a human being. Even their young boys and girls are extraordinary. And there’s also that livestock farmer…]
Everyone in the conference room finally understood what happened after listening to Achan whine and grumble, his voice stained with tears.
‘No. Why did you…’
‘He went there just in time when they had gathered together…’
‘Haa…’
Then, a notification appeared on the monitor.
[The Battle God’s Judge fully supports the Battle God’s decision!]
The board members and executives finally accepted the fact that they were all going to work overtime from this point on.
At that moment, the silent Battle God, the greatest Absolute God, opened his mouth. Everyone in the room focused on his words.
[Did it hurt?]
[…Yes.]
The board members and executives of Joy Co. Ltd. felt that Achan was very pitiful.
Judge Achan was someone who cared for and loved the Battle God, to the point that he swore his eternal allegiance to the god. He was also among the strong figures who stood by his side. The Battle God also cared deeply for Achan. After all, there were only a few men who had such a pure and loyal heart.
