Chapter 2412 – 2412. Eternal Eden

Voice phishers were particularly persistent.

‘Do you have a grudge against me? Why do they call me from another number when I block a number?’

In times like this, my hacking skills are disappointing. If you had hacking skills, you couldn’t track the location right away and find out the identity of the guys, or scold them with a virus bomb to prevent them from doing voice phishing again.

‘Even if I only had the hacking and space movement order, I would come and kill them.’

They are the lucky ones.

Even after a few minutes, I kept getting calls from an unknown number, so I turned off my smartphone.

‘It will calm down in a few hours.’

After thinking about how to modify the supercar for a while, I got bored and walked around the main building.

Irina was easy to find. He was training alone, pulling the bowstring at a shooting range used by the SS. It was clear that he had visited the shooting range while the SS was away.
I watched her focus for a moment.

‘Your bow drawing posture is perfect.’

Even though her breasts were huge, I shot the arrow carefully to make sure they didn’t get in the way. She could shoot up to 300 m, and Irina hit the 300 m target with a hundred shots. Even though the target area was different, I hit it anyway.

‘You hit 300 m with a bow, not even a gun. After all, it’s a shrine ability.’

Irina was calibrated in everything she did with her bow.

I approached her when she lowered her bow.

“Irina.”

“Ah, Eugene.”

“It’s a lot of hardship.”

“Oh, no. As far as hardships go…”

I grabbed Irina’s shoulder. Irina looked embarrassed, but she looked at me and quickly closed her eyes. I roughly hugged her and kissed her.

Of course, it didn’t end with just her kiss.

• • •

After having a great time with Irina, I went to visit her.

1st floor of the main building. Yu Seo-jeong’s heart is a laboratory. Unfortunately, Yu Seo-jeong was not the only one in the lab. Her daughter, Kim Ji-hee, was also there. Jihee Kim was sitting behind her, blankly watching the study of the will.

“Ah, Mr. Eugene. “Are you here?”

“… Hello.”

Jihee Kim was still wary of me. The voice seemed softer than when I first saw it.

‘It’s a shame. If Yu Seo-jeong were alone, she would have tried to eat him.’

Well, just pick it and eat it at night.

“How is the research going?”

“Yes. I received research materials from Dr. He was also conducting some research on medicine.”

Chaeyoung Na, a technologist, specializes in machines. However, she was not restricted from making medicine. Even if she can’t make medicine herself, she can create a machine that can make medicine. Of course, compared to bionics, expertise will be far lower.

“Ah. I heard that even Dr. I can make simple medicine using a machine.”

“Yes. Bister I. Basic drugs can also be mass-produced by machines. The Beaster II could also be mass-produced if the machinery is well-adjusted. “Coordinating that is part of my job.”

Bister I. Slight increase in physical capacity, relief of pain, loss of fear due to excitement. A drug with no side effects when taken once every 10 hours. This is a drug provided to the SS and general security teams.

Bicester II. Significant increase in physical ability. When an ordinary person takes it, he or she can have powers comparable to that of a superhuman for a limited time. As effective as it is, the side effects are enormous. When the effect of the drug ends, you may faint or develop permanent high blood pressure. There is a possibility of death due to internal bleeding.

I have the Bicester II. Originally, it was going to be paid to the SS, but… There was a shortage of medicine. The main material for Beaster II is a beast variant that is difficult to obtain.

‘The Beaster II cannot be used randomly. Even if you use recovery, your resistance builds up. No, because you use recovery, your resistance builds up faster.’

As tolerance builds, the effectiveness of the drug decreases. This is why I do not use drugs carelessly.

“Oh, and this… “I made a drug.”

“Already?”

“… Hemp is also a drug created accidentally in a secret laboratory. The ingredients… The heart of a humanoid variant. “There were quite a few mutant corpses at Seongak Elementary School.”

It’s not just variants. Mutant bodies are also stored in the freezer. Even if the body rots, it doesn’t matter because I have the power, so I’m just keeping it. Of course, it is for research purposes.

I was given a bottle of white pills that she took out of her drawer.

“You might feel rejected because the main ingredient is the heart of a humanoid variant… The effect is pretty good. Of course there are side effects. When I take X-Cream, I get tinnitus and can’t hear any other sounds. The effect lasts for about 15 minutes… When the effect of the drug is over, your hearing will return, but you will lose it little by little. “The average person completely loses their hearing after taking it about 7 times.”

“Still, it’s better than Beaster II. Because one dose can kill you. What happens if I take it when I have hearing loss?”

“It puts a lot of strain on the heart. There is a high probability that your heart will explode and you will die. Of course, this is for the public. The awakened one… I can’t say anything because there isn’t enough experimental data. Ah, the efficacy of the medicine…”

“You just have to experience the efficacy of medicine yourself.”

I opened the bottle, took out a pill, and put it in my mouth. If you take medicine for the first time during battle, you may suffer adverse effects if you are unable to adapt to the effects of the medicine. In that case, it would be better to experience it once. Even if your tolerance builds up a little.

‘Especially because this drug called X-Cream seems complicated.’

Wagjak.

The moment you crush the medicine with your molars and swallow it, the medicinal effect spreads immediately.

Beep!

I heard two people. No other sounds were heard at all. I wasn’t surprised because it was just as Yoo Seo-jeong said.

My heart is beating fast. It seems to beat 500 times per minute. Vision also became clearer. It seems that other senses except hearing have been greatly activated.

‘My overall physical ability has increased.’

Yu Seo-jeong opened her mouth in embarrassment. The voice is not heard.

‘The speed at which the lips move… It’s about 1.3 times slower. No, my thinking speed has become 1.3 times faster.’

It feels like watching a video 1.3 times faster.

‘It’s much slower than the gale of faith. Still, it will be a great help in battle.’

I tested my physical ability by lifting objects in the lab. Compared to Beaster II, the increase in physical ability is small.

Personally, I liked X Cream more. In the sense that other senses other than hearing get better.

‘I can swing the knife sharper.’

After 15 minutes, the effect of the medicine ended. My ears were ringing a little. The sound I heard was also a bit strange. Would you say it feels like you are using cheap earphones instead of expensive earphones? The sound quality is not good.

‘In times like this, it’s recovery.’

My hearing has returned to normal.

“No matter how much you have the ability to recover… Taking medicine at random like that is a bad habit. What if it was a poison that killed you instantly after taking it? Please be careful next time.”

Yu Seo-jeong was concerned but spoke firmly. She still doesn’t know that I can raise the dead.

I feel like I’m being scolded by my mom… Is not. Whenever my mom scolded me, she hit me on the back. She felt like she was being scolded by her teacher, not her mother. And that too to teachers in the lower grades of elementary school.

“Teacher Yu. Saving you was the right answer. Very good.”

These are not empty words. Just by her presence, Seongak Elementary School will develop faster.

“… That’s too much praise. “We haven’t seen any real results yet.”

Yoo Seo-jeong said with shame. As she looks younger, it seems like her mind has also become younger. It is not for nothing that the mind follows the body.

“I can’t take away Teacher Yu’s time for long. See you later.”

When she spoke with a grin, Yu Seo-jeong blushed and nodded.

As I was leaving the temporary lab, Kim Ji-hee, who had been quiet, followed behind me.

“Mr. Seong Yu-jin. “Can we talk for a moment?”

“Even though I look like this, I’m busy. Do it here.”

“… I am grateful that you saved my mom and me. Also, for letting us stay here.”

“Because I promised Mr. Yu. There is no need for you to be grateful.”

“… Here. I heard how Seongak Elementary School works. They also run a religion called Seongjingyo.”

It seems that Yoo Seo-jeong told her daughter everything about her Seongjin religion. Although she expected it, she was too weak for Yu Seo-jeong and Kim Ji-hee.

“Are you trying to say that you want to leave Seongak Elementary School?”

“No. That’s not it. Unlike Ilwoo Group, we are satisfied with the fact that they do not treat us as slaves. The same goes for mom.”

I’m glad we didn’t start a fight over moral issues. In this respect, Kim Ji-hee is definitely different from Yoo Seo-jeong. Jihee Kim knows how to compromise with reality. My evaluation of Kim Ji-hee has risen somewhat.

“You and Teacher Yoo will be rewarded for your work.”

“I’m not doing anything.”

“You’re working as Teacher Yu’s assistant.”

“Aide? All I do is sit quietly behind my mom. She had no idea what my mom told me was biology, she had no idea about genes or anything. “She can’t understand after hours what she understood right away.”

“Bionics is calibrated to biology. “You are not strange.”

“Mr. Seong Yu-jin. I want to do something that only I can do, something that can help this force. I know that Rod’s power is dangerous to Seong Yu-jin. But my strength will definitely be helpful to Seong Yu-jin.”

Kim Ji-hee’s eyes shine with motivation.

“Why are you trying so hard? Even if you don’t do anything, no one will say anything. “It’s comfortable and nice to quietly suck honey.”

“… I don’t want to be a useless person. I can’t stay in my mom’s arms forever. “I also want to help my mother in my own way.”

Just as Kim Ji-hee is a weakness to Yoo Seo-jeong, Yoo Seo-jeong is a weakness to Kim Ji-hee.

‘It means that if you manage Yu Seo-jeong well, you can control Kim Ji-hee well as well.’

The Lord’s ability to forcibly awaken ordinary people and raise the power of all members of the force. It was a coveted power.

“The Lord class has the ability to become a ruler. “You know, right?”

“… Yes. The reason Ilwoo Group was wary of me was because I was a roadie. “I have no intention of betraying Seong Yu-jin.”

Is it a lie? Is it sincere? I couldn’t look inside people. Still, I have a card called Yoo Seo-jeong. As long as Yoo Seo-jeong is around, Kim Ji-hee will not make any moves.

‘First, if you want to have mother-daughter rice bowl, you have to get close to Kim Ji-hee.’

“Follow me. Let’s test your abilities.”

She brought her to her training room. She additionally called in 10 members of the Holy SS. The SS members took an unmoving stance behind me. It’s hard and expressionless, but it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have emotions. Because their eyes looking at me were full of faith.

“… What can I do?”

“As far as I know, Lord has the ability to awaken ordinary people, right?”

“Yes. It’s called a guardian. It can awaken highly loyal ordinary people. As the Lord’s abilities become stronger, the number of guardians he can appoint increases… “I am a basic person of 5 people.”

Since Kim Ji-hee was in Tsushima’s secret laboratory, she was unable to develop Rod’s abilities.

“Holy SS. “All of you, be loyal to Kim Ji-hee.”

“Yes, Your Holiness. We will be loyal to Kim Ji-hee.”

The SS bowed their heads to Kim Ji-hee without any objection.

Jihee Kim raised her eyes in surprise.

“… You are truly loyal to me. And that’s to the point where they can all sacrifice their lives for me.”

“What. Can you check your loyalty?”

“Yes. It’s Rod’s ability. It’s not exact, but I can roughly feel it.”

“Right. Bodyguard. Let’s check how much your physical abilities have improved.”

A simple physical fitness test followed.

And I was surprised. The physical abilities of all members of the SS improved by at least 10%. This is also a basic figure. As the load’s ability increases, the increase will also increase.

The amazing thing is that you can get it with just loyalty.

“Bodyguard. “Abandon your loyalty to Kim Ji-hee.”

“Yes. “Your Holiness.”

“Huh?!”

Jihee Kim took her breath in surprise. Judging from her reaction, it feels like the loyalty of the SS has completely disappeared.

‘This proves it. Loyalty and faith are separate things. Also, faith is based on loyalty.’

With this, you can use Kim Ji-hee’s abilities.

‘First, let’s awaken a few SS members.’

“Be loyal to Kim Ji-hee again.”

“Yes, Your Holiness.”

Following my command, the looks in the eyes of the SS members looking at Kim Ji-hee change drastically.

“Kim Ji-hee. Can you awaken this guy into a guardian?”

“Yes. I can do it.”

“Try it.”

Jihee Kim looked at him and narrowed her eyes. It’s about focusing her consciousness. Soon the body of the SS member started flashing.

The SS has awakened.
