Chapter 337:

It was not long ago that Jin Cheong-woon heard the voice of Praytion.

He did not know anything about Praytion’s existence when he just obtained a fragment of the Codex and glimpsed a part of the truth of this world.

But later, as he captured many returnees and retrieved fragments from others, when the number of fragments reached a certain level.

He felt the thoughts of a being that came to him.

That was Praytion, the fifth king of stories that was unknown to this world, and he was hiding his body in the genesis system for some reason.

When he first made contact with him, Jin Cheong-woon felt puzzled.

‘Why does such a being show interest in me?’

He was the leader of Unleashed, but he did not overestimate himself.

If what Praytion said when he introduced himself was true, he was a formidable being who could rival the first generation Divine Spirits.

It was suspicious rather than pleasing that such a being would be interested in him, who was nothing more than a human of the lower world.

To Jin Cheong-woon, Praytion ‘showed him’ why he spoke to him and what would happen to this world in the future.

Yes. It was a strange experience that could only be described as showing him.

His mind stretched far beyond the universe, and he could see the flow of this huge world at a glance.

And, he had no choice but to realize it as soon as he saw that sight.

The rest of the truth of this world that he did not know, and how this world would be in the future.

Jin Cheong-woon held hands with Praytion. Praytion’s existence was a great help to him beyond agreeing with his will.

‘I can’t let Exodus bastards use me forever.’

More than anything, the movements of Exodus tellers had changed quite sneakily lately. Their support, which had provided even the seeds of stories until then, had almost stopped abruptly.

Unleashed members regretted that part, but Jin Cheong-woon had expected that time to come someday.

‘It doesn’t matter. Now I have completed the last puzzle to save the world.’

The earth, and even this genesis system.

They were able to stop the path of destruction.

‘Of course, it’s just a postponement, but for now, this is the best...’

“Boss.”

Then Shena Lynch approached Jin Cheong-woon.

“What is it? Shena.”

“I have something to ask you about this operation.”

“What is it?”

“Why don’t you target Kang Yu-hyun teller?”

Shena Lynch knew that Jin Cheong-woon brought other external forces to Korea. The same was true for Unleashed’s executives.

They also decided to move separately without external forces, but the problem was that the next target that Jin Cheong-woon said was completely unexpected.

“Kwon Jia collector. Why are you targeting Mad dog?”

That was why Shena Lynch did not understand.

The highest priority target for Jin Cheong-woon in this operation was Kwon Jia, not anyone else.

She could understand if it was Kang Yu-hyun teller. His existence was a very serious problem for Unleashed.

He had not shown up in public for a few weeks, but he did not do that anymore.

The first thing they had to eliminate was Kang Yu-hyun teller.

But Jin Cheong-woon decided to target Mad dog Kwon Jia, his contractor. And not even the first one, but the second one.

“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”

“Are we so stupid?”

“No, of course not. You are my great comrades. But Shena, what I said is not just beating around the bush. You really wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”

“I still don’t know why the boss is targeting Mad dog.”

“Yes. It’s natural that you don’t know. You can’t help but not know.”

Jin Cheong-woon chuckled as if he found it amusing.

Before Shena could say anything with a frown, Jin Cheong-woon’s laughter stopped abruptly.

“Shena. And I’m sure other comrades don’t know either, but there is something huge that we don’t know about Kwon Jia collector.”

“Something huge? How do you know that? Is it a prophecy?”

“A prophecy... maybe.”

Jin Cheong-woon did not say anything more. Shena realized that he was hiding the most important fact from them and bit her lip.

Jin Cheong-woon’s actions lately were hard to understand even for her, who was his closest aide.

He used to say that he would create a world of collectors, but now Jin Cheong-woon was looking for something other than the initial ideology of Unleashed.

Was it that important? To the point of abandoning his precious comrades and hiding the truth from them?

One per person. Could there be a simpler formula than this?

“It will be hard. They will be much stronger than those you have recovered so far.”

If it was single combat, it would be a very strong opponent in one-on-one.

If it was a group, it would be a situation where one had to face many alone.

It wasn’t a situation where they could ask for other support either. At best, they could only gather people who had personal connections.

Considering the level of the opponent, anyone less than a high-level collector would only be a hindrance.

Yu-hyun was worried if his companions could do this well.

But still.

“You can do well, right?”

They couldn’t always protect them and take care of them.

They worked hard to become stronger while he was away. They proved that they could do it by perfectly performing the recovery of fragments.

So he had no choice but to trust and entrust them.

“Of course!”

“We’ve already done well even when you were away.”

“Rather, it was too boring until then. I didn’t even warm up.”

“You don’t have to worry, brother. I can do well.”

Yu-hyun nodded his head with satisfaction at the four people’s confident answers.

“Good. Then let’s do our best to prepare for the next three days.”

“Yes!”

***

The time of three days passed quickly.

Yu-hyun, Kang Hye-rim, Kwon Jia, Seo Sumin, and Yoo Young-min stood in their respective positions.

The enemies were moving with a peculiar power. They didn’t come to Korea by plane or ship. Rather, they crossed the border more secretly than that.

A secret movement that no information agency could catch.

But on this side, there was a map that could read the location of the fragments.

“Ah. This is Alpha. Can you all hear me?”

Yu-hyun sent a flare to everyone from a deep valley where no one was.

[Yes! This is Bravo! I can hear you!]

[This is Charlie. Reception good.]

[Delta. I can hear you well. I’m looking forward to it.]

[This is Echo. I can hear you well.]

“You all see the map, right? It’s about time they get here.”

Golden flashes flickered and crossed the border, approaching the Korean peninsula.

And they came from five different directions without colliding with each other.

That’s why White Flower Management also split into five and guarded their own areas.

Yu-hyun was near Bukhansan.

Kang Hye-rim was at Incheon Port.

Kwon Jia was in the mountains near Gangwon-do.

Seo Sumin was in front of Jindo.

Yoo Young-min was at Busan coast.

“We’ll deal with them on our line before they step on the border.”

It was a tense moment, but Yu-hyun decided to trust his colleagues.

It was a dangerous challenge to fight against the enemies with fragments, but Yu-hyun saw this crisis as a new opportunity to leap forward.

If the ones with fragments gathered in one place like this, he wouldn’t have to bother finding and recovering them one by one.

Rather, this was the chance to recover most of the fragments that existed on Earth at once.

Hoot.

The white owl flying in the sky shared its sight with Yu-hyun and cried softly. The owl had grown to the size of an adult owl and showed a much more majestic appearance than before.

Through the owl’s sight, he saw a person appear as the air rippled.

This side was not a group, but an individual. The person who had recovered all the fragments near Russia by himself.

“Let’s begin.”

Yu-hyun put on Aporia’s mask on his face.
