Chapter 56

[The Worldview War has been officially established.]

[By the authority of the system, you will apply for the war in the designated way.]

[The mode is ‘Deathmatch’.]

Jinpung applied for the war and Yu-hyun accepted it.

As soon as that happened, the Genesis System reacted and changed the surrounding scenery in an instant.

It was a huge colosseum spread out in space.

In the stands, avatars of spirits that looked like mannequins were sitting.

[The war will begin in 15 minutes.]

There were 15 minutes left until the Worldview War.

Until then, both sides had to rest or figure out how to fight their opponents.

***

“Hmm. This situation is getting interesting.”

Agael, a teller who resembled a fairy and had instructed Jinpung to do all this, was watching the confrontation between Yu-hyun and Jinpung with interest from her [Watcher’s Room].

The Watcher’s Room where she stayed was much larger than those of other tellers.

There were books that filled one wall, of course, but on another wall there were dozens of monitors that could monitor the situation.

The monitors showed Yu-hyun and Jinpung from different angles.

“I was curious about the teller who suddenly rose up recently, but he’s more than I imagined?”

When Agael first heard about Yu-hyun, she thought he was just another guy.

It was not uncommon for a teller to meet a good collector and gain popularity along with him.

She thought Yu-hyun was one of them.

But she thought he had a good eye for collectors, so she told Jinpung to bring him over.

If it didn’t work out, she added that he should deal with it as usual, in the way of the Pentagram Department.

She thought it was over.

‘He was a much tougher junior than I thought.’

When she heard that he gave up his protection and fought with the collector, she couldn’t believe it for a moment.

But as soon as she saw the clip video floating around on the [Genesis Network], she had a hunch that she was wrong.

‘He doesn’t adapt to the given environment, but rather tries to ignore it as if to show off. Of course, from the perspective of the spirits, such a madman would be perfect, but if we leave him alone, it would be quite bad for our department.’

Agael decided that she had to eliminate Yu-hyun rather than recruit him.

He was too dangerous for her taste.

By chance, Jinpung also had a similar idea and used some scavenger guys to take action.

They all failed though.

‘But that’s okay. He became a more tempting prey for us, so we just have to catch him.’

Of course, she didn’t step in herself.

She supported him from behind, but Jinpung was the one who acted.

She didn’t think Jinpung’s popularity would rise from this success.

‘The secret weapon I lent him will get more attention than that stupid junior.’

In the end, everything was like a game she had set up.

She catches the rising collector named Geomhu and makes the collector she secretly raised here into a rising star.

“I’m still watching out of curiosity, but I hope you show me something interesting.”

She was small and cute like a fairy, but her eyes shone more ferociously than any beast.

***

“Yu-hyun-ssi. Are you really okay?”

The waiting room before the war.

Kang Hye-rim looked quite flustered by the sudden establishment of the Worldview War.

This situation was not planned out, but rather happened on the spot like roasting beans on a fire.

“Of course I’m okay.”

The culprit of this whole thing, Yu-hyun, didn’t care much.

Rather, he felt like he lacked even tension or alertness.

“This is actually a good thing.”

“A good thing?”

“It’s an opportunity to show off your [Thunder Sword] and my new weapon [White Lotus].”

If it had gone according to plan, they should have already caught one suitable worldview and raised their level by clearing it.

But as soon as Jinpung appeared, Yu-hyun changed his plan.

He came over here to be a sacrifice for us, so there was no need to refuse.

“But still...”

Kang Hye-rim felt uneasy.

‘Is he really okay?’

Was it too much to feel like this whole situation was arranged by someone else?

There was no valid reason.

It was all her intuition that made her feel uneasy.

But she was bothered by the fact that her intuition had been right most of the time since she fully awakened her trait.

‘Thanks for the compliment.’

[It’s not a compliment. You’re crazy.]

To Baekryeon, Yu-hyun was not normal.

To be precise, he was normal most of the time, but when this situation happened, he changed like a different person.

Baekryeon was a sword with no memory, but she still had a sense of people.

She felt that Yu-hyun was a person who had something endless and dark inside him under the mask of goodness.

What should she call it?

Evil?

Hostility?

Hatred?

She didn’t know.

But one thing she was sure of was that if she became Yu-hyun’s enemy, she would have to face this invisible fear.

[I feel sorry for the tellers who jumped on you without knowing this.]

‘Crazy.’

He didn’t get angry or point out her words calling him that.

In fact, Yu-hyun himself thought he wasn’t normal either.

But so what?

‘I don’t care if I’m crazy. No, I can’t do this unless I’m crazy.’

To change the world.

That was an idea that no one with normal thinking could ever have.

It was an action that only those who had gone mad and disappeared could do.

For him, being crazy was like the best compliment.

‘I don’t care what you call me. It doesn’t change what I have to do.’

There were 5 minutes left until the war.

“Baekhyo. I’m counting on you.”

Hoot.

Yu-hyun spoke to the white ball of fluff sitting on his shoulder.

The ball of fluff, the celestial owl Baekhyo, hooted as if he understood his words and flew up into the air, leaving the waiting room.

***

“Kukukuk. Stupid kid.”

Jinpung, who was sitting in the given waiting room, couldn’t contain his elation and let out a laugh.

Kang Yu-hyun, that stupid guy, accepted his war application without even knowing what situation he was in.

Of course, he had to spend 5,000TP like blood for that, but it didn’t matter.

He would get more than that back if he won anyway.

‘He got too cocky because he had Geomhu. Well, I admit that his skills were impressive even to me.’

Geomhu Kang Hye-rim’s talent was different from ordinary collectors no matter how he looked at it.

With just a few worldviews, she was so attractive and strong that she even had a fandom among the spirits.

If he left her alone, she would rise to the middle-class collector level, and even the upper-class collector level as time passed.

‘Of course, that won’t happen.’

Jinpung stroked his splendid mustache and looked at the corner of the waiting room.

There was a young man in a hooded shirt sitting quietly with his hands in his pockets.

The man with an ordinary face and a faint smile looked like a good and diligent young man no matter how he looked.

But Jinpung knew the real face hidden behind that mask.

‘Agael-nim is amazing. I didn’t know you were raising such a guy in the department. It would have been nice if you gave me a hint.’

Jinpung had already erased the incident where his life was threatened from his mind.

He was overjoyed that the department gave him such a collector as support.

‘Kuhuhu. As expected, they recognized my talent. They thought it was too wasteful to leave me alone! How else would they have set up such a sure win for me?’

Jinpung was confident of his victory already.

The pleasant intoxication reached its peak when the notification that the war would start in 1 minute came.

“Hey. It’s time. Let’s move.”

“Haa. Annoying.”

The young man with a good impression got up from his seat reluctantly at Jinpung’s words.

Jinpung frowned at his attitude, but he was in a good mood so he let it go.

[The war begins. Both teams, please come out of your waiting rooms.]

The voice announcing the start of the war echoed throughout the colosseum.

Jinpung had already brought his collector to the stage.

The spirits who gathered to watch the deathmatch sent their excited eyes.

Just then, someone came up from the opposite side.

“Tha-that guy...!”

Jinpung widened his eyes as he recognized his opponent.

He sent out his collector, so he thought the other side would send out Geomhu too.

But it was Yu-hyun who came up.

He was holding a sword in one hand and showed himself.
