C403

The soul used to signify a person's essence.

Usually, it was only revealed after death.

However, the Goblin King's primary magic allowed him to directly see the soul hidden within a thick, robust body.

And by stirring the soul in that way, the body would finally naturally collapse.

But...

Thud-.

Above YuWon's revealed soul, the Goblin King saw an existence he had never seen before.

A massive mouth and teeth.

And a huge, irregularly-shaped entity that possessed it.

Oh, heavens!

The Goblin King released YuWon's arm that he had been holding onto and staggered back.

Could it be because he had moved away too much?

The presence of the monster that had appeared before him disappeared.

"What... are you?"

The Goblin King asked YuWon, pointing with his finger.

"Behind you, what the hell is that?"

What he had just seen wasn't YuWon's soul. It was a completely different entity. It protected YuWon as if it were a God residing within his body.

Of course.

What the Goblin King saw, YuWon didn't.

"Behind me?"

At that moment, an idea crossed YuWon's mind.

"I see."

YuWon seemed to know what the Goblin King had seen. It seemed that Danpung had intervened to stop the Goblin King from touching the soul. Although it was still in the form of an Egg.

Unlike in the past, the Egg was hatching rapidly.

"Stop now."

"Why should I suddenly stop now...?"

Bam!Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

YuWon struck the wall as he turned around.

Crack-!

The wall trembled. The wall created by the spell shook, and cracks appeared.

And towards the place where those cracks appeared.

Crash-!

Once again, YuWon's fist struck directly. And...

Clang-!

The wall created by the Goblin King's spell shattered. When one side collapsed, the Arcane Power rapidly diminished, and the collapse spread in a chain reaction.

The wall created by the Goblin King.

Disappeared completely.

Right after that.

['Complete Gigantification' duration has ended]

['Complete Gigantification' changes to 'Gigantification']

[Within 24 hours, you will be able to use 'Complete Gigantification' again]

The three minutes given to YuWon had passed completely.

-------------------------

After the fight with the Goblin King, YuWon lay down for a moment.

Could it be because it was his first time using 'Complete Gigantification'?

For a moment, it felt like all the energy had left his body, and fatigue overcame him.

While lying on the ground, he raised his hand.

"Sigh."

He applied force to his hand, but as expected, it didn't have the same strength as before. This was due to the end of 'Complete Gigantification.'

"It's still too short."

Both the duration and the cooldown time needed to use it again were unsatisfactory at the moment.

Still, it was okay.

The duration and cooldown could be improved by increasing proficiency.

What he had in mind right now was something else.

"Quite... no, quite useful."

'Complete Gigantification' was such an effective ability.

After closing his eyes for a moment, he felt his energy returning to his body.

His stamina had increased, and his recovery ability had as well.

When he checked his Kit, it had been about three hours.

"Anyway, I didn't get hurt anywhere..."

Despite the intense battle, he didn't have any serious injuries anywhere.

YuWon immediately got up from where he was lying.

------------------------

YuWon ascended the stairs, and in the end, he saw sunlight, something he hadn't seen in a long time.

When he emerged into the city center from the alley, he saw a crowd of people.

They weren't goblins; they were regular people.

Climbing a simple staircase had completely changed the world.

"Still the same as always."

Since Shub-Niggurath's appearance, the world had remained the same.

Although there had been a great commotion for a while, and Grand Guilds like Asgard had made moves, for common Rankers and Tower residents, that was a story from another world.

YuWon headed toward his preplanned destination.

Because he walked among the crowd, no one seemed to pay him any attention.

As he walked, a Ranker passed by his side and pointed at the Kit in his hand.

"Ranking..."

"What happened in a few days for you to be so excited suddenly?"

For Rankers, the ranking was a topic of great interest.

The ranking was essentially a number that consolidated various factors like power, influence, and other elements of Rankers. Having a high ranking meant being very "successful."

Therefore, High-Rankers in the rankings were like stars to lower-level Players and Rankers who had given up on climbing the ranks.

"Have you seen Kim YuWon's ranking?... Oh, what the hell?"

A Ranker who was looking at the Kit turned abruptly.

In the eyes of the two Rankers talking like this...

"Oh?"

YuWon, who was looking at the Kit together with them, was seen by the two Rankers.

"Is... is it really him?"

"I apologize..."

The two Rankers looked at each other.

Swish~ It was a swift, Ranker-like movement. YuWon didn't know why they were apologizing, but it seemed like they were scared.

Toc. The Kit that the Ranker had dropped to the ground.

Even though he had initially been spying out of curiosity, YuWon picked up the Kit that had fallen to the ground and checked the rankings he had been looking at a moment ago.

He couldn't believe it even after seeing it with his own eyes.

[Kim YuWon: 11th]

His ranking was much higher than before.

'Hmm... 11th.'

Before going to the Goblin Country, YuWon's ranking had been 28th.

A low ranking due to the lack of proper observation of his fight with Satan. But this time, his ranking was clearly assessed according to his ability.

And this was after his visit to the Goblin Country, where his stats were properly reflected.

'Did they observe my fight with the Goblin King?'

If that were true, it would make sense.

The Goblin King's strength was so impressive that even outside the Goblin Country, he would probably be among the top ten in this Tower. It wouldn't be unreasonable for YuWon to be given a ranking like this if they had observed his fight with the Goblin King.

In fact, his ranking was relatively low, really.

Unlike other elite High-Rankers, YuWon didn't have significant influence, but he had a history of recognized potential until now.

'What does the ranking matter?'

If the world collapsed, everything would end.

YuWon had never shown much interest in the ranking. Sure, like anyone else, he had checked his ranking from time to time out of simple curiosity, but he didn't attach much importance to it or feel particularly happy about it.

Besides, YuWon had reached a much higher place than this in the past.

Toc. After dropping the Kit he had in his hand to the ground, YuWon continued on his way.

The place he finally arrived at was...

"Yes! Welcome! This is the Olympian Sun Chariot! We'll take you for a good price!"

It was a rental station that offered replicas of Sun Chariots.

The station caretaker noticed YuWon and looked at him in surprise.

"Are you going to use it alone?"

"Yes."

"They can be used for up to ten people max. The price is the same, but..."

"I'm alone."

With a firm response, the caretaker didn't ask any more questions.

While looking discouraged, he released the reins of one of the sun chariots and asked:

"Where would you like to go? The cost depends on your destination."

"Upward."

"Upward? Where exactly upward?"

"Literal, upward."

YuWon raised his hand and pointed to the ceiling of the rental station.

"Up to the roof."
