Chapter 80 – Change (10)

‘What is that?’

Yuchun stared crookedly at the woman named Gyeong, who was shedding bloody tears, and the man who seemed to be the leader of the group, who looked like a mess for where he had put his glasses.

‘How can I move?’

Yoochun doesn’t see her body as normal, but she narrows her eyes as she sees the two slowly approaching her.

Yuchun’s power was now ruling the whole place, including the hotel. To the extent that Awakeners who have reached a certain level find it difficult to even breathe.

And of course those two were included. The only people Yuchun allows to move around here are her colleague Yang Ha-yeon and this idiot-like woman whose throat is caught.

Yuchun’s eyes began to glow with golden light.

“Huh…Look at this?”

Yuchun glared at her as if she was stunned.

It is because Yoochun’s power, which is warping the mana of the entire space observed inside her fire, is the only one that she and Minjeongsuman are avoiding.

‘No, I’m not avoiding it.’

Hwamyeongan, which sees another world beyond the ability to accept only the reflected light, recognized that this phenomenon was not simply caused by shedding. This power that belongs to the realm of concepts is not something that can be spilled by a person of that level who has not reached even the manifestation of images.

‘So you’re saying you have something special?’

Surprised, but not astonished. It’s rare, but it did exist. Irregulars who are qualified to reach a much deeper depth into something special that is not a realm.

“It saved me the trouble of finding it.”

So, you don’t have to use all your strength to survive. Even so, by his standards it was insignificant. Yuchun indifferently looked down at the two men and women who had reached her half-crawled in front of her.

“Heo-euk…Heo-euk…”

“Turn it off…”

“Gye, Kyungha…Senpai…”

Kim Min-kyung looked at the two with emotions such as sadness, sorry, and regret. I didn’t know if anyone would consider forgiveness at least once if they saw that, but it didn’t work for Yoochun, who had already put down many things and started walking on the path of transcendence.

“Since you came here, wait there. After you kill this stupid one and the two cheeky ones in the back.”

“Gagging-!”

“Ah…!”

“What”

Yoo Gyeong-ha crawled towards Yoo-chun, who gave strength to her mouth to kill Min-kyung Kim, and grabbed hold of her pants. Her face was covered in blood with bloody tears flowing from her eyes and her limbs scraped and torn to the ground.

“Hoo…”

However, Yoochun was curious and opened her mouth to see her determination in her eyes through the bloody scab.

“Talk about it. I wonder what you will say.”

“…”

‘How… How…’

I caught a glimpse of the resolute will in the eyes of this relentless absolute. Min-kyung trembles in fear, Min-ho twists while digging through the ground, and senior Kang-woo loses his mind. She probably wouldn’t snort even if she begged to save those who were like her own family.

‘I have to… Take the time…’

They don’t think that someone will appear to save them from this being. I just needed to know a little bit. That way you can even struggle.

“Mi, what did Minkyung do wrong?”

And Min Jung-soo also thought so and opened her mouth.

“Please tell me. Any responsibility we can take…”

“No, you can’t lose.”

“Gagging-!”

Yuchun twisted Kim Min-kyung’s neck and straightened her body.

“This worm-like bitch dared to call me a male prostitute. And that, too, in front of the upper class in this country.”

“…”

“If you have rolled on this floor, you will understand, right? That I can’t look at all of these things.”

‘You stupid girl…!’

Min Jeong-soo chewed his lips carefully. Why did you do this? What is the reason for the two of them to leave the runaway Minkyung alone?

“Of course it will be unfair. It’s a pity. I’m serious. However, I have no intention of leaving a petty grudge. There’s no advantage to keeping him alive. So go quietly.”

“Wait a minute!”

When Yoo Kyung-ha stopped him again, Yoo-chun made an impression of her.

“…Second. If you stop it just one more time for a useless reason, it’s you.”

“Meh, merit! If there is a merit, will you save me?”

“So?”

She said Merritt. It’s just a passing word, but it’s definitely a word that means that if it’s better than killing, you can save your life. And Yoo Kyung-ha herself has a special power.

‘I have to convince them with this anyway!’

“I-I!”

“You say you have special powers? That’s funny. Do I not know that?”

“…”

As strong as Yuchun himself is, the standard that he considers useful is also far away on earth. There was nothing special about it that I couldn’t even use properly.

“I don’t know if it has potential. A level of specialness that has not reached the minimum line has no meaning.”

‘Karen, no, at least it should be Tibochina.’

Tibocina’s ability to handle various high-ranking spells is more useful than a moderate ranker.

“That doesn’t mean there isn’t a way.”

“Yes…?”

“There is a way to save you and your friends. And that’s something only you can do.”

“What, what can I do?!”

Yuchun found this woman’s appearance of despairing at her own words and then having her hopes so funny that she rolled her eyes and threw Kim Min-gyeong, who passed out before she knew it. And the power of Yuchun that had been suppressing this space disappeared.

“Mi, Min Kyung!”

“Hey Focus. Focus on this side.”

The world that had been forcibly stopped came back, and the sound of the high-level Awakeners returning to freedom could be heard, as well as the sound of people collapsing at the sudden release of tension.

“I don’t know what it is, but you were blocking my strength, even at the very edge. That’s definitely amazing So let’s play a game with me.”

“A game…?”

“Yes game. Do you see the worms up there?”

Hearing Yoochun’s words, he raised his head and looked around.

Fear of alien beings.

Awe and envy of the overwhelming power.

Even the impatience of wanting to get out of this place.

It was an excessive feeling to say that all the people who fly and crawl in this country are directed to just one person, but it was rather lacking from the perspective of Yoo Kyung-ha, who knows the status of being Balto’s only internal director, Yoo-won.

“You must die in this place. Otherwise they’ll do other things behind the scenes. Oh, even if I mess around, I think I can live once. But there is only one way not to die.”

“What is that…”

Yoochun took his phone out of his pocket and sent a text message somewhere.

“Just once, I will attack you only once. If you survive there, you have proven your abilities. For me and for them.”

“…”

“Even if you miraculously survive, you will belong to me… But isn’t it better than dying? However, as much as the opportunity is given, there must be a penalty to be justified. If you can’t hold on and die… Your comrades will be disposed of in the way of the central world.”

I didn’t know what the central world’s method was. However, when I saw that cruel smile that I could barely see with the blood that flowed down, I knew that the end would be worse than death.

“If you’re going to accept it, you’ll have to bring all parties together. If you’re willing to risk your life, call your guild leader.”

‘What should I do…?’

I thought it was respectful. Min-Kyung Kim did something, but this time, it was fundamentally her responsibility. For her unknown bloodline, she felt embarrassed that she had put her family and her colleagues, who were no different from her, at the risk of her death.

‘I have to survive, even on foot…’

Her colleagues and friends were shouting something, but they couldn’t be heard. This godlike man must be blocking it. Fear soared as she left this brutal choice to herself, but her hand reached her pants pocket with determination.

*

A lakeside where no one opens their mouths. While Yoochun was sitting on a bench and looking up at the sky for about 30 minutes in that very quiet place, Karen and Elteron, whom he called through Tibochina, and Kang Seunghun, the head of the Fire Dragon Guild, called by Yoo Kyungha, appeared.

“Then the actors and the audience all gathered.”

Yoochun slowly got up from his seat and passed Karen and Elteron, who were standing upright in their Balto uniform, and headed towards Kang Seung-hun, who was making a gloomy expression after hearing the situation.

“You made a good choice.”

“…What do you mean?”

“I mean you came alone. If I had brought your guild members, I would have killed all of them at any opportunity.”

“…”

Yoochun passed him with his head down and stood in front of Yoo Kyungha who took care of her body.

“So are you ready?”

“Before that… What is the method of the central world?”

I felt that I had to know about that reluctant thing about Kyung-Ha Yoo first.

“Oh that? No big deal.”

Slavery was illegal on Earth, long gone, but not in the Central World. 13 Because there are slave traders who operate according to the laws established by the Commission.

“If you die, the two I brought will go to the central world and sell them.”

“W-what…”

“It will be used for quite a variety of purposes. I will live because I cannot die.”

“…”

At those words, Yoo Kyung-ha’s breath stopped. Can I really accept this? If I die… What kind of life will my comrades live? Can you survive?

The weight of all her horrible imaginings and the choices she had made gradually weighed down on her shoulders.

“You can give up. I only suggested it because I was interested in your power. It doesn’t matter whether you die or live and use it.”

She forced herself to swallow the vomit that arose from the fact that a person’s life could be decided by such a light word.

“…I will.”

Whether it was because her colleagues didn’t listen because she was blocked by Yuchun’s power, or because she had the confidence to shoulder all of her karma afterwards, Yugyeong gave her the courage of a lifetime.

“Okay? I get it. Then.”

Kudos…

The iridescent eyes of Yoo Kyung-ha, who had demonstrated her full potential from the start, reflected the space converging like a black hole around Yoo-chun’s fist.

Concentration of absurd power. The moment you touch it, it will turn to dust.

‘I just don’t have to reach…’

Coming all the way to this place, I understood a little bit that I was a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of That this power that can intervene beyond seeing the world outside its boundaries can ultimately reverse even fate.

It is an extremely distant realm like a god who coordinates cause and effect. It’s like an illusion that you can’t even get a glimpse of now. But even if we cannot touch the causes, we can intervene in the probabilities and consequences.

‘I need to change that power from ‘reaching’ to ‘not reaching’.

In order to intervene with that tyrannical power, Kyung-ha Yoo clutched at her beating heart and focused all her attention on Yoo-chun’s fist with her trembling eyes.

“Block it.”

‘Come!’

His fists shook along with Yoochun’s calm words. There’s no way she could see her attack ahead of her sound. However, she feels something intangible and colorless approaching like an awl in the world made of infinite colors visible to her eyes.

And in front of the path, he erects a barrier of ideas that only he can feel in the world.

‘Stop!’

However, Yuchun’s power is also the realm of concepts. And the gap between the two cannot be filled by the miracle of enlightenment that came by chance.

Clink-!

Clink-!

Clink-!

‘No!!’

Yu Gyeong-ha desperately shook her head as she heard the sound of barriers that only she could hear were breaking. She said what a way she could live.

‘Ah…’

To save something, you must give up something else…

Just like that, the momentary bet comes to an end.

Aaaaang–!!

Due to the natural disaster, the forest surrounding the lake collapsed and the beautiful scenery was covered with dust.

“Gyeol, Gyeongha!!!”

“Mi, crazy…”

“Does that make sense…?”

Yuchun clenched his fists as he heard screams and sounds of astonishment coming from all directions.

“I didn’t know you could survive that way.”

“What…?”

Of course, Lee Kang-woo, one of the Fire Dragon Guild members who assumed that Yoo Gyeong-ha was dead, sat down and cried out, then inadvertently asked her words and looked at the place where she was standing.

Then, through the settling dust, a small silhouette began to appear.

“Ughh-!”

“Are you okay, Kyungha?!”

They ran away with amazement, joy, and relief that she had survived such a devastating blow from the front.

“Uh…? Kyungha…?”

“You…?”

“Ehehe… I’m glad. We can live with this…”

“Oh, no, that’s not you…”

However, at the sight of Yu Gyeong-ha there, they blankly shut their mouths. Yuchun watched the scene for a moment, then she turned her head towards the two people she had brought with her.

“Karen, Elteron”

“”Yes””

“You must keep your promise. Take them and train them.”

“How high can I set the intensity?”

“Make the most of it.”

“We may all die…”

“Are you okay. As long as that woman exists, she won’t die easily, so… It’s a story when you can follow her around.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“About the damages here, I’ll tell Mr. Jiyeon and Tibochina directly later, and you guys take them and train them. Even if I die, I won’t hold you accountable.”

Ignoring Elteron’s words, Yoochun left the hotel with Hayeon Yang.

Oh oh oh–!!

Gyeok, Kyungha–!!

El Theron, who had been watching, turned her head towards the source of the grievous noise, and she stood out at the sight she saw.

“I see…That’s what you said…”

“Hehe…I’m fine…Everyone lives, right?”

“But… But—!! Your eyes–!!”

The only woman with bobbed hair who smiles among the members of the Fire Dragon Guild who howl like madmen. The eyeballs that should have been in Yoo Kyung-ha’s eyes disappeared and were empty.
