Chapter 84

Thx bunny bacon for your kind donation and support!

[Even if it means turning the world into an enemy (13)]

On the 18th floor, the outer wall of the building and the inner wall of the corridor shattered side by side.

A fierce wind raged.

I barely managed to open my eyes against the wind, and the view of the city sparkled like a jewel.

The world may have been destroyed once, but the people who live in it still shine.

Beautiful.

Leaning against the side wall, Eunha looked out over the city lights and thought.

Its still dark over there.

The outskirts of Gangbuk were locked in the night.

It would be a long time before Seoul would shine brightly under the night sky.

Eunha reminisced about the time when he and his companions looked out at the cityscape before regression, then turned his head.

Julie. Are you hurt?

Bru. Im fine, youre the one whos hurt, youre burned all over, are you okay, does it hurt a lot?

Its okay, Ill get better with medical attention.

Bru.

Julie.

Two people hugging each other and giving love.

Eunha couldnt understand what they were saying in Italian, but he had a feeling he wouldnt need to.

Bru. I have a confession to make to you.

What is it?

Bruno asked, running a hand through her hair.

She slid into his arms and wrapped her pure white arms around his back.

A back that was too big for both of her arms.

And she liked it.

Being able to be deeply embraced like this.

Were having a baby.

A child?

Yes, your child.

Aah.

Bruno didnt quite understand what she was saying.

After repeating it over and over again, he was able to accept the unbelievable reality.

His heart swelled with joy.

He wanted to protect this person until the end.

And also their future child.

Thank you. Im so happy.

I hope this isnt a dream.

Its not a dream. Since the day I swore to protect you in Sicily.

Weve never dreamed. This is reality.

Bru.

Julie.

The two stared at each other with even more passionate gazes.

I cant take this anymore.

Eunha decided to let them know of his existence.

Uncle Bruno, Julieta noona , its nice that youre having a touching reunion, but can you help me?

With a bullet wound in his leg, Eunha could barely stand up.

His internal mana was tangled up, and blood was flowing from his injured leg.

Im sorry.

Sorry, Eunha!

The two of them checked on him.

Julieta hastily administered first aid.

Then her eyes locked with Brunos, who was still staring down at her.

Ah.

She read his mind.

He nodded.

She did the same.

To prove that this reality was not a dream.

To escape Valentines weeknight once and for all.

She rose from her seat and stood beside him.

Huh? Julieta noona? Uncle Bruno?

Leaning against the wall, Eunha couldnt figure out why the two were suddenly looking at him.

Even as they sat down on one knee, he couldnt comprehend what was happening.

Eunha. Ill never be able to repay you for what I owe you today.

Thank you for saving me. If it werent for you, I would have lived in despair.

Ah, uncle, noona, please stop.

Eunha waved his hands in the air. It was a bit overwhelming to see two people kneeling and speaking so earnestly.

Nevertheless, they continued in silence.

I would give my heart to repay this debt.

I would give my life for you, too.

Of course, Bru wouldnt approve.

I dont care. Ill give my heart for Julie, too.

Albert Valentine said nothing.

She was right.

The current Tredici was composed of members of the dominant family in Italy.

Two of them, Albert himself in the Valentine position, and Zenko in the Myron position.

At first, Big Mama empowered Myron as a force to be reckoned with in Sicily, but after a while, Myron grew stronger and more intent on consuming Big Mama.

At this point, Big Mama and Albert Valentines thoughts coincided.

Big Mama was looking to reduce Myrons influence and find a new family to support her. Albert Valentine had a plan to rebuild Valentine, away from Myron.

The two planned to take advantage of Zenko Myrons visit to Korea and kill him out of Myrons shadow.

At the same time, Albert planned to recruit Bruno, secretly protect Julieta, and use her as a wedge to bring down Myron in the distant future.

But it looks like you have a long tail. According to player Shin Seoyoung, there were other Italian players around the Alice Hotel besides you.

It wasnt until he heard her words that Albert realized that Myron had been moving beneath the surface.

Tom Myron wasnt the only player sent to spy on him.

Myron, who had detected his and Big Mamas plan, must have intended to kill him if he caused any trouble.

All the Italians who were there, we have them in our custody.

In custody.

It meant they werent killed.

Albert understood the implication. Depending on the conditions he accepted, he could either send them back to their homeland or handle them discreetly.

Dont play games with me. Youre not the one proposing the deal.

I am.

He had to admit it.

Albert acknowledged that he had been completely defeated by her.

As she said, he never had the right to propose a deal from the beginning.

What do you want?

Many things.

Winners always find a way to smile, while losers have no choice but to accept the winners words.

Im Gaeul, holding Albert Valentines lofty ambitions and Big Mamas political leverage, was the winner who had both in her hands.

Alice Hotel has transformed into a dungeon due to a sudden mana anomaly.

Unfortunately, you, Zenko Myron, Tom Myron, and the Italian players were trapped in the dungeon and, except for you, died while trying to conquer it.

How about it? If you agree to my proposal, the Fairy Government can even fabricate falsehoods as truths.

It was a weak plan with only the framework, but not bad.

All he had to do was add flesh to it.

Surely the Fairy Government had proposed it with this in mind.

Albert nodded his head.

So, what do you want?

As much as fabricating falsehoods as truths, a lot.

A lot.

She paused for a moment and then opened her mouth.

But Im not without shame either. First, lets modify the Mediterranean mana alloy we agreed to trade before to 2 tons.

Albert remained silent.

It didnt quite add up.

But it was within an acceptable range.

He nodded his head and responded in silence.

Second, we will change the clause stating that South Korea will dispatch three Twelve Seats for the Leviathan subjugation to one person. Instead, we promise comprehensive support within our capabilities.

He furrowed his left eyebrow.

To defeat a Rank-Over Leviathan from the Second Rank, they needed sufficient power.

Reducing the number of players comparable to Tredici could disrupt their power.

Instead, the Twelve Seat we will dispatch is Nam gung- seong <Divine Spear>.

I understand.

If it was <Divine Spear>, he could accept it to some extent.

Continuing, Im Gaeul raised her third finger.

Third, in the Mediterranean, there is a Black Dungeon called the <Dungeon of the Abyss>, right?

Yes, but?

Albert interjected bluntly. He found it strange that she mentioned a dungeon she had declared temporarily impossible for humanity to conquer.

Someday, someone in Southern Europe will attempt to conquer the <Dungeon of the Abyss>. Even if they say humanity cannot conquer it, it doesnt mean they wont try to conquer it at some point, right?

As she said.

Although the current main concern in Southern Europe was the subjugation of the Leviathan, there was ambition to conquer the <Dungeon of the Abyss> someday.

Any country that possessed a Black Dungeon would have the same ambition, regardless of which country it was.

While the whole world publicly stated that Black Dungeons could not be conquered, they were secretly exploring ways to conquer them.

Allow us to get involved in that as well.

I dont think thats something we can decide right now.

I understand. So, when the time comes, Im asking you to request support from South Korea if Big Mama still holds power.

Understood.

It wasnt a difficult request to accept.

After all, it was a matter for the distant future.

She probably proposed it because she didnt want to end the deal as it was.

The two things she wanted were likely the ones she presented at the beginning.

Lastly.

She tapped the table with her finger.

And then, with a sly smile on her lips,

Lamborghini.

She spoke with a playful tone.
