Chapter 98

Episode 98

“It’s been wiped out.”

“yes. older brother.”

At Liu Lei’s words, Zhang Wei took a deep breath. The cigar in his mouth was lit intermittently and flickered in the dark.

Beginning with the Qualification Test of the Adventurers Guild, the Mercenary Corps Kirinhoe enters the top 10 branches within the branch as a single team.

Over the past few months, their stock price has risen exponentially due to overwhelming inaction and mission success, and they are secretly expanding their influence in the lawless city of Nark Bay.

That was the reason why their names were not widely known to the outside world in the first place.

Narc, which was a military hub, was a disputed area where the two southern kingdoms had been at war for a long time, and hundreds of years later, the kingdom that was actually using it as its territory remained without administrative authority.

It is no exaggeration to say that the city, which boasts an explosive population density with outcasts and refugees from both countries, is a human chicken coop for murder, rape, prostitution, drug organ trafficking, forbidden sorcery, and unlicensed medical practices.

It was a place reminiscent of the Kowloon Fortress of the past.

“It looks like there was a large-scale defense battle in the northern region not too long ago. Rumor has it that the culprit who caused enormous damage to Jeungsan Industries participated in the event, and Mingchen tried to take revenge by dragging his subordinates, but it was backfired.”

“Where is the culprit?”

“Currently, we are staying in Terra, which is called the center of the East, but it was found that there was no significant damage.”

When Liu Lei manipulated the system window, a video appeared before Zhang Wei’s eyes. In the video he shared, the aforementioned image of the siege of Aldeon Fortress was flowing.

Thousands of adventurers fighting bloody battles against thousands of legions of monsters, and at the forefront of them, a man running endlessly with knights called Night Crow.

And when Zhang Wei saw Damian, who became a beast and ripped the mouth of a ghoul in half while alive, he instinctively recognized that he was the man who destroyed Mingchen’s increased production business.

It was a raw appearance to say that it was formidable, but it was because the power of the main body that could be felt in the video was not sewage compared to himself.

“Did you hear? A call?”

“Kik hik kik kik...!”

Zhang Wei, who had been sitting in a modest chair with his legs crossed, looked away, and a scream came out of the darkness.

It was a voice that seemed to be half fainting.

The procrastination looked like a lump of organic matter, but the sound of the sloppy blood and the noise of the floor touching the flesh spoke of urgency without a word.

And when a ray of sunlight drew a line like a blade through a crack in a high-rise slum where not a single light shined through, the scenery of the place where they were standing began to be dimly reflected.

A single room that looked like 10 pyeong at most.

Cracked plaster walls reminiscent of concrete.

It was a grotesque sight, like seeing a sewage dump dotted with nameless flesh, puddles of blood, mold and grease.

“I thought you wouldn’t make that choice.”

“Kkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeukkeuk”

“I lost my best friend and all my money because you made that choice.”

“That... ugh...!”

“Because of your petty self-satisfaction.”

“───────!”

Fuck!

As Zhang Wei waved his cigar-holding hand, one of his subordinates struck down a mace.

The arm of the man called Cheong Bing was crushed by the mace like a potato being mashed.

A man who had no choice but to rip his mouth open so that not even a scream could come out, and as a result, the soundless screams seemed to fill the room.

Considering that it was the one who ruled as the king of the slums, holding a corner of Narc just a few days ago.

Even in reality, if he was the one who led the Blue Dragon Association in the name of the Four Dragons among the Orient Five Dragons.

It was unconvincing that he had become a super-corpse now and had his head on the floor.

It was too late to say that it was karma for the atrocities that Cheong Bing had committed so far.

However, what he did was to blackmail and coax the closest friend of the Ilryong, who had the greatest power among the five dragons of the Orient, to form an organization called Jeungsan Shineop.

Not only did he start to touch the money line little by little, like clothes getting wet in drizzle.

If that was the pretext of digging into the back of the business giraffe and preparing to drive a dagger into the back.

Gambling, human trafficking, prostitution, and drugs, which can be called his personal deviations, can be said to be nothing more than aegyo.

It was a disaster caused by a strange fetishism about how passionate human emotions can be.

“There’s a lot to do, Liu Lei.”

“You will do as you wish. Don’t worry.”

profit!

Before long, Zhang Wei’s cigar was ground to the plaster wall.

Late night.

Jupitel, the capital of the divine law Ornas.

In the middle of the white hall sat a woman. The white hall, which only the chosen could enter, had a huge lake and a seat that looked like it was carved out of ivory projected the celestial bodies.

A woman sitting on a throne in the middle of a lake, her chin resting on her chin and her eyes gently closed as if dozing off.

Just when she wanted to open her eyes through the white blonde hair close to platinum, the woman’s gaze turned to the open ceiling.

Golden Eyes.

Her eyes were the same color as her hair.

“....”

The woman carefully examined the two moons and numerous stars. Stars far away, even dimly lit, were captured in her eyes.

A serene and majestic celestial body drawn by thousands of moving stars.

What are you looking at?

Soon the woman’s mouth opened.

“The black star... the dark star that swallowed everything is giving birth. Despite dying once, how...”

Gooooooo!

The woman’s lips, looking up at the night sky, were dazed. The sound of the dawn wind created by the silence made it seem as if the world revolved around the woman.

The woman’s face, which seemed to have gathered all the beauty in the world, boasted an indescribable majesty just by being absentmindedly.

Her presence filled the space with an overwhelming size that even a mere human could not touch.

Aside from all that, her gaze stayed on only one place.

“...hmm?”

And suddenly, the woman’s eyes were colored with wonder, and at the same time, the woman’s gaze began to move away from the black star.

“That’s...”

Another star that I couldn’t find because I was distracted by the birth of the black star.

Thus, it was a malevolent star that revolved around the black star and absorbed the energy of the star.

“...was it like that?”

The woman closed her eyes.

There was nothing more to see after that.

A dark star born with unprecedented energy.

Even though it died once, the star came back to life as if it had never happened.

The castle was emitting an intense light incomparable to the previous one.

Even though she dropped the star herself tens of millions of years ago.

“...you’ll need to prepare.”

It was at that moment that the woman raised her hand to her eye.

“Light (φως).”

Dig!

When the woman spread her hand on the armrest, a white bookcase was revealed.

It was not a very big book.

The corner of the four sides and the circular pattern in the center are covered with gold sheets like a woman’s hair, so the book looks like a Bible or an old book at first glance.

And as the woman waved her hands, soft light began to emanate from each other in white gold.

“...come. You are my family.”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

It was < The Book of the White Oath Calling the Creation >.
