Chapter 46: Outside
Yoshimura approached the item dropped by Yuma with wide eyes.
"Are you a soul stone?"
Soulstones were obtained with extremely low probability by catching high-level monsters.
There was also talk that if there was a producer who could use the soul stone, the probability would increase.
But that probability was really low.
I've heard of necromancers killing people and getting soul stones, but Jun-woo never thought that such a thing would happen to him.

The potion was shared by the three of us.
The other 4 were all Jun-woo's.
Jun-woo grabbed the soul stone and hurriedly ran, raised the fallen workbench, took out a piece of paper, and started working on the blueprint.
Yoshimura sat down and asked Murata.
"I really wanted to go wrong in the end, bro."
Murata also put his sword in and sat down.
"I see it for the first time. I think Yuma-sama has that level of Berserker power."
Yoshimura put his hands behind his back and sighed.
"Hey, what's going on now?"
"The Dark Star will retreat. On the Yunnan side, the invasion of the zone has become serious, and international condemnation is rising. Since Yuma-sama, one of the pillars of his power, has disappeared, he will no longer be able to stay."
"I wish I could."
Yoshimura's eyes turned to Eumeria, who was looking at Jun-woo.
"However, it is strange that it is a soul stone. Will Yuma-sama be reborn like Eumeria?"
"You won't have any memories."
"What if I don't follow Lewis?"
"I heard that the person who made it is considered at the level of a parent."
"I hope it goes well. By the way, I'm so relieved. I'm hungry, bro."
Yoshimura looked at Yuma's burnt flesh and took out the potion that Yuma had obtained.
"After all, human flesh is too much. I want to drink this too."
"Eat it. The longer you stay, the more likely the Dark Star will return to Yunnan."
They ate too sparingly.
And six days later, Yamazaki Yuma woke up.
[The degree of completion of this blueprint is 99.4%.]
Unlike Eumeria, it was Yuma with mithril as the main ingredient.
The appearance was not what it used to be.
At that time, Yuma was 195 cm tall and weighed 170 kg, but the current Yuma is 195 cm tall and weighs 100 kg.
He lost weight, and Jun-woo deliberately looked at his hands, so he couldn't find the face he had on Yuma.
"Hello, Dad."
"Do you remember anything?"
"no. But I know the bad guys are threatening my dad. That's what made me."
Yuma stood up.
A tall nose, broad shoulders, and a muscular body were significant enough to be called a model.
"Is it you? the bad guy."
Murata, who was pointed out, waved his hand in embarrassment.
"It's not me, Yuma-sama."
"Yuma? What is my name, Dad?"
Jun-woo shook his head.
"No, your name is Leon."
"Leon? great."
So Yuma's name was changed to Leon.
And for 9 days, Jun-woo had a meeting with them about their future plans.
And when he became so exhausted that he could not stand it any longer, Jun-woo decided to take them outside.
"Remember, Leon. I will show you the direction, so go through it."
"Okay, Dad."
"Not Dad, Brother."
Leon was awkward to call Jun-woo the representative.
"Okay, bro."
"Then let's go."
I couldn't get all the ingredients here.
Even with five people, the item window was not enough.
They led 23 golems and stood in front of the gate going out.
Murata was sure Darkstar had already left, but that was unknown.
Yoshimura took a deep breath.
A sizeable Russian man in his 40s, dressed in thick fur, stood up and said.
"Walker, I heard from the Master. Only the children here enter Korea at once. A little more will come when the front calms down. Fabregas' denunciation statements will soon be published on a large scale."
"Thank you, Captain Wok."
The work was one of Fabregas' deputy masters.
"Is the kidnapped producer your friend?"
"Rather than a friend, he's a younger sibling who needs to be taken care of."
Wok sighed and smiled.
"If it's your brother, it's like my brother. Let's go, kids."
A hundred people stood up.
Walker hired 100 members of the Fabregas Guild and 150 privately funded mercenaries and went down to Korea.
"I think you can come to Korea now, Yokitsu-sama."
"I see."
Yokichi, the Japanese target, moved.
Yokichi spent an enormous amount of gold to get the cooperation of Japan's largest guild, Sukudo.
Going down, Walker checked the date.
If you count the food and water he bought for Park Jun-Seong and the food and water he purchased for himself in the past, Jun-woo could stay there for about 130 days.
But on the way down, Walker heard the news of Darkstar's withdrawal.
I haven't even talked to the Korean guild yet Are you back in such a hurry? Surely he hasn't been kidnapped already?'
It was one of the two.
They, too, caught fire on their feet, or Jun-woo was kidnapped.
It was a Walker who was a little worried that he might be late.
That day was the 111th day since Jun-woo disappeared.
* * *
125 days after Jun-woo disappeared, 5 am. Jun-woo went outside.
It was the 14th day since Dark Star left.
In the mountains, members of the Daehan guild were wandering around for investigation. In anticipation that Jun-woo might appear, some reporters walked around even though it was early in the morning.
Jun-woo concentrated his mind and walked in a direction where there were no people.
"Brother, can't you run?"
"If you run, you will be caught. Hide your mana well."
"That's what I'm good at again."
Jun-woo slowly descended from the mountain like a knight in medieval cosplay, wearing pole plate armor and a helmet.
Yoshimura and Murata were also wearing helmets that covered their noses.
Jun-woo slowly entered the city center.
Jun-woo took Yoshimura and Murata in to see the old bathroom.
They washed their dirty bodies and went out to the changing room.
On the television screen of the dressing room, President Joo Han-cheol's speech was being rebroadcast.
"Dear Koreans, I bow my head and apologize for causing great concern to the people due to the recent unfortunate events in Korea."
Joo Han-Cheol bowed his head.
"We will never again allow the entry of Dark Star, a terrorist group that despises Korea, and if they set foot in Korea again, regardless of the reason, we will protect the people together with Korea and the five major guilds."
Jun-woo stared at the TV softly.
"The Republic of Korea will work with China, Japan, and Russia to protect the people from monsters and keep the people safe from terrorist groups."
Joo Han-Cheol stopped breathing once and continued.
"Finally, I would like to apologize to the victims of this series of incidents, and I would like to express my gratitude to China's Confucianism and Japan's Skudo, and Russia's Fabregas for their cooperation."
A middle-aged man who was listening next to him criticized the President.
"Hey, you've been doing nothing for 100 days, and then you're leaving, so you're talking like that! And the request for cooperation is from Fabregas. Are they as stingy as they did? Live colors!"
"Daehan is the problem, Daehan. They avoided battles because they couldn't crack their kingdom! You should be ashamed that these are the most prominent guilds in Korea!"
Jun-woo overheard their conversation and asked.
"Murata, didn't Korea have the power to drive out the Dark Star?"
"It is difficult in Korea alone. Even if there was no support for China's political struggle and Japan's Sukudo, we could not be stationed in Korea if the guilds with a grudge against us cooperated. But he showed no will to fight in Korea. So, it seems that Takane met the Master of Daehan, and he seems to be able to communicate well, and he hasn't received any support from Daehan since then. It is true that thanks to that, I was able to stay in Gwanggyo Mountain for a long time."
Jun-woo said as he lowered the towel that covered his mouth.
"Is it a problem with Korea?"
A middle-aged man overheard Jun-woo from the side and helped him.
"This is a problem for Korea! They don't protect the people by force. They protect power uh? Huh?"
A middle-aged man looked at Jun-woo's face and was very surprised.
Jun-woo got his original equipment and went outside.
As Jun-woo walked, four people followed.
Yoshimura whispered softly.
"Aren't you going to wear a helmet? Your eyes are out of sight."
"Yoshimura, Murata. Come to Louise's office in two days."
"yes?"
Murata asked.
"What do you plan to do next?"
Jun-woo answered succinctly.
"You have to make money. Enough to turn the world upside down."
Leaving those words behind, Jun-woo walked away.
"Leon, Eumeria. Follow me from a little distance."
"Okay, bro."
"Okay."
One by one, people recognized Jun-woo and approached him.
"It's Jun-woo Lee ."
"Is that Lewis?"
"It's Louis!"
"He was still alive!"
People in the city looked at Jun-woo walking by with surprised eyes and turned away from the road.
People rushed to take pictures with their smartphones, and the crowd who heard the sound blocked the road.
