Chapter 292: Star, the Source (1)

[Your Class has increased!]

...

[Your personality has strengthened.]

...

[You have gained the right to reclaim some of your revoked Divine Name’s letters.]

[You have recovered four letters.]

[‘T, W, I, L’.]

[‘■■ne Twil■’ is opening his eyes!]

Paah!

Chang-Sun’s eyes opened.

『... Master? Hey, master. Answer... What’s wr...!』 Wait frantically called out to Chang-Sun. 『... If you’re not going to answer me, I won’t have any other choice but to wake you up with my adorableness. Cough, cough!』

Only half unconscious, he felt great yet lightheaded. It was as if he was walking in the clouds, so he didn’t want to wake up.

『Kyoo?』

Chang-Sun only came to his senses when a middle-aged man with a deep voice began making noises.

『Kyoo, kyoo? Kyoo, kyoo, kyoo?』

Tap!

Emotionlessly, Chang-Sun brought up the login window and attempted to deactivate the whole system.

『W-wait! Stop!!! P-please, stop!』

Gaudy emoticons were printed on the monitor.

After typing the master password, Chang-Sun glared at the monitor with his finger on the enter button.

『Please don’t! I’ll be quiet, so please don’t do this, master!!! It can really kill me!』

ヽ(;゚;∀;゚; )ノ

( ́×д×`三꒪д꒪ ;)

ヾ(((;ꈡ▱ꈡ;)))ノ

“... You’re distracting me. Stop using those weird emoticons,” Chang-Sun said.

( ͒ ́ඉ.̫ ඉ ̀ ͒)

『A-are you not going to turn me off?』

“... I’m not going to, so stop it already.”

『... Okay.』

The emoticons disappeared from the screen, once again replaced by a middle-aged man. It made Chang-Sun frown deeply. Despite his looks, he made adorable kitten sounds and printed cute emoticons. Although Wait was an AI, he still shouldn’t cross certain lines.

“If you do weird things like that again, I’m going to enter the self-destruct code and blow you up with the entire lab.” Chang-Sun narrowed his eyes.

『Fi-fine, so please...!』

“One more thing.”

『...?』

“Speak formally if you want to keep calling me master,” Chang-Sun said.

『... Yes, master.』

Chang-Sun didn’t pay attention to how gloomy Wait became.

『Gosh, master. You’re a geezer...!

Chang-Sun could hear Jin Prezia speaking from somewhere, but he didn’t pay attention to him either since he had to get a grasp over the situation first.

Keeping his eyes on Wait, Chang-Sun asked, “How long have I been out?”

『About... fifteen seconds, master.』

“Fifteen seconds?”

『To be more accurate, it’s fourteen seconds and thirty-two—』

“I’m not asking about the exact number. Have I really been out for that long?” Chang-Sun confirmed in disbelief.

Wait nodded.

“Mmm...”

‘I thought I had been out for a long time...’ Chang-Sun spent some time pondering.

Chang-Sun knew the flow of time differed for each plane, but he didn’t expect this at all. Nevertheless, he eventually realized that this was for the better.

‘I gained a lot within that short amount of time.’

He recovered more letters of his Divine Name and learned that his past lives were out to get him. Above all...

‘After taking out Heoju, Mephistopheles said he’ll accept me as his disciple, and said that he’ll aid me.’

The biggest achievement he made had to be establishing contact with Mephistopheles and .

After some time, a memory flashed across Chang-Sun’s mind. “What about [Li’s Fragment]? What happened to it?”

『Th-the quantal analysis is already done. I’m building the vaccine program now.』

Paah...!

Under the lightning energy, Chang-Sun’s skin cracked up.

[The Effect ‘Double Retribution Fire’ has been upgraded to the Effect ‘Triple Samadhi Fire’!]

[The Effect ‘Hundred Toxin Immunity’ has been upgraded to the Effect ‘Thousand Toxin Immunity’!]

[The Effect ‘Martial Omniscience Body’ has been upgraded to the Effect ‘Divine Lightning Body’!]

...

[The Celestial ‘Madness Infuser’ shouts with joy, asking for another explosion!]

[The Celestial ‘Madness Infuser’ shouts with joy, asking for another explosion!]

[The Celestial ‘Madness Infuser’ shouts with joy, asking for another explosion!]

...

[The Celestial ‘Twilight-Piercing Owl’ massages her aching temples, thinking she should do something about the Celestial ‘Madness Infuser.’]

[The Celestial ‘War-Loving Fighting Deity’ shouts along with his brother!]

[The Celestial ‘War-Loving Fighting Deity’ shouts along with his brother!]

...

[The Celestial ‘Twilight-Piercing Owl’ scolds her childish brothers, telling them to stay put!]

[The Celestial ‘Sky and Earth’s Connecting Wing’ bursts into laughter.]

...

[The Celestial ‘Madness Infuser’ holds his glass high, wishing for a series of explosions.]

[The Celestial ‘War-Loving Fighting Deity’ shouts cheers, holding up his glass like his brother!]

[Madness overwhelms the Society !]

Booom!

An enormous explosion occurred.

[You have successfully for the fourth time!]

Chang-Sun’s red lightning energy soared through the factory roof like a pillar and spread in every direction

[The Title ‘Jigwi Spirit Incarnation’ has been upgraded to ‘Ultimate Jigwi Incarnation’!]

...

[You have successfully absorbed the ‘Brilliant Vermilion Light,’ earning you the position of ‘Neo Seoul’ mayor!]

...

* * *

[You have successfully acquired the ‘Brilliant Azure Light’!]

[You have become the vice mayor of ‘Neo Seoul.’]

Acquiring the brilliant light didn’t keep Lie Si happy for that long. The message made his face crumple up. “... Vice mayor?”

“What’s wrong, corps leader?”

Acquiring the [Brilliant Azure Light] resulted in the death of half their forces. Although they could finally catch their breaths now, they couldn’t help tensing up and wondering if they made any mistakes during the operation because of how Lie Si reacted.

“We’re only second.” Lie Si gritted his teeth.

“What do you mean...?”

“Someone acquired one of the brilliant lights before we could.”

“...!” The subordinates’ faces darkened, finally realizing the magnitude of the situation.

“We need the mayor’s authority to seize control of the city... This messes up our plan.” Lie Si narrowed his eyes.

The [Tricolored Brilliant Light] wasn’t just an infinite energy source. It was also the key to fully awakening the dormant ‘Doomsday City.’ However, the mayor of the city was the only one that had control over the Dungeon.

Various kinds of weapons were all over Neo Seoul. Biped walking robots, antimatter engines, nuclear fusion reactors, EMPs, super vibration energy—a highly advanced civilization’s tools and weapons were all over the city. Unlimited access to all of those would not only give them a lot of utility inside the Dungeon but also significantly increase the military strength of the .

“We need to get our hands on the Heaven Link no matter what...!” Lie Si bit his lower lip.

Among those weapons was a satellite known as Heaven Link. It was likely orbiting the thermosphere of ‘Doomsday City.’ Lie Si’s goal was to seize command of it no matter the cost. After all, the satellite could be used to monitor the entire city in real-time and also had an antimatter cannon, one of the best weapons in ‘Doomsday City’.

As the vice mayor, Lie Si could use some of the city’s subsidiary weapons, but only the mayor had access to Heaven Link.

Lie Si did not just fail to get his hands on the Heaven Link, which he planned to use to wipe out Chang-Sun and Heoju’s groups. They also sustained great damage for nothing.

Who could have beaten them to the punch? Heoju’s subordinates were busy with R’lyeh, so they shouldn’t have had time to care about [Tricolored Brilliant Light].

Lie Si straightened up, coming to a sudden ominous realization. ‘Wait.’

The assumed that Lee Chang-Sun was ‘Divine Twilight’ and that he partnered up with the to return to Earth. If their assumption was correct, then Chang-Sun’s information-gathering ability should be just as good as the ’s. In other words, he was likely also aware about the Hidden Piece named Heaven Link.

As the mayor, would ‘Divine Twilight’ just keep Heaven Link orbiting around the thermosphere of ‘Doomsday City?’

“Everyone, take co—!” Lie Si yelled at his subordinates.

Flash!

However, before he could finish, a pool of incredibly bright lights struck the lab they were in.

Booom!

Rumble...!

[‘Heaven Link’ is active....]

[You have used your authority as the mayor to select the ‘Azure Lab’ as the enemy headquarters.]

[Wiping out the area!]
