Episode 480. The Night’s Guest (3)
Kirik.
That extreme.
The familiar sound of work.
With him.
[You have successfully cleared the pre-arena ‘Task’.]
[Clear rewards increase depending on your performance.]
[The attached trait ‘Philosopher’s Stone’ receives a certain amount of experience points.]
[Level increased by 50.]
[Philosopher’s Stone level increased by 45.]
[You will receive ‘?’s Apple’ as a clear reward.]
Clear rewards are floating before your eyes.
But Shimun’s expression was not so bright.
It was natural.
‘I came out without even saying goodbye to Weir.’
Was the appearance of Nyx, the goddess of the night, unplanned?
Didn’t you get ‘forced to terminate’ as the message said?
If anything, that’s fortunate.
By obtaining the Golden Apple, you have definitely cleared the pre-arena task.
And this is.
‘It must have been done under Nix’s calculations.’
It must have all been Nick’s intention.
From the beginning.
‘The timing of the sermon to the Hesperides was just perfect.’
The golden apple is a condition for clearing the task.
Didn’t Nicks appear at the time you acquired it?
As if to prove this.
[Myth Arena is an arena of pan-dimensional importance.]
[The controversy over variables that were not part of the plan and causality must be clearly resolved.]
[Olympus will be held accountable for this.]
A series of extremely aggressive messages came to mind.
Galaxy Arena, which always takes care to be polite.
And if you look back, the opponent is none other than the god Olympus.
‘You must be quite angry.’
A sight that can only be seen as truly infuriating.
actually.
[Zeus lets out a deep sigh, ‘Haa… What should I do with these grandmothers…?’]
[Constellation Odin pats him on the back, saying, ‘Tsk, you’re already having a hard time with the big task ahead.’]
[Constellation Michael shakes his head, saying, ‘I’ve heard it through rumors, but it’s actually quite impressive.’]
[Constellation Cheonma clicks his tongue, saying, ‘How come all the goddesses there are so strong?’]
[Constellation Baal gives an ‘hmm’ nod of approval.]
Don’t the constellations of the poem also send a response?
Especially.
[Zeus asks seriously, ‘How could it not work? As you know, Gigantomachia is a very important war for us.’]
Zeus put aside his dignity as the king of gods.
Aren’t you even asking for a favor at Galaxy Arena?
but.
“This is truly outrageous.”
Shimun couldn’t hide the laughter that was flowing out of his mouth.
Have you heard this?
[Player Kim Si-moon? May I ask what you find absurd?]
The question of Galaxy Arena that comes to mind.
Because I’ve never been asked so openly and in such a personal way before.
“hmm?”
Shimun blinked with a slightly surprised look, but it only lasted for a moment.
“Right? You said it was a variable that wasn’t part of the plan and causality… … .”
Soon he will smile and laugh.
“I have actually experienced many variables that were not part of the plan and cause and effect.”
He told me the reason for the laughter.
That too.
“Even on the receiving end.”
Very definitely.
Therefore.
[… … .]
Galaxy Arena stands silent.
It wasn’t a crowd.
“Shall we discuss this in more depth? Like the dragon tribe, the giant tribe, etc.”

Of course, the main enemies are dragons and giants.
And many other things as well.
The ‘variable that was not planned and causally related’ that Galaxy Arena mentioned.
“I’ve experienced many injustices while working on Galaxy Arena.”
Haven’t you been through a lot of poetry?
But did he have something to say?
[I sincerely regret the unreasonable incident you experienced.]
[However, all punishments and regulations for those incidents have been dealt with.]
I refuted that, but that was it.
“I’m not sure how well the punishments and regulations are implemented.”
The poem is usually passed over with a shrug of the shoulders.
“In the end, the fact that I was affected by that ‘unforeseen variable of cause and effect’ doesn’t change.”
He immediately counterattacked.
“That includes the pre-arena just now.”
Therefore.
[I think there is a misunderstanding regarding Player Artisan.]
[He participated with due cause and qualification, and it was solely the players’ personal… … .]
Galaxy Arena tried to continue their rebuttal, but that was it.
“Okay. Then, from now on, except for my personal interests and circumstances.”
Cutting off the words completely.
“The causal and unplanned variables you mentioned will never happen again. At least not to me, will they?”
At the end of the poem that follows.
“Because our Galaxy Arena side is so clear about right and wrong.”
and.
“But what’s strange? If you had imposed sanctions like this, there’s no way I would have met the dragons and giants more than once or twice… … .”
Seems like you’re genuinely curious.
“Why have I met you so often until now?”
To the poem that was recited while tilting the head.
[… … .]
Galaxy Arena was speechless.
It was natural.
Regardless of whether the poem makes sense or not,
The proposition of ‘absolute’ that Shimun mentioned is true even if it is the Galaxy Arena.
Isn’t that something that can’t be easily stated?
Galaxy Arena is an organization similar to a corporation.
No matter how much you look after the inside and purge it.
After all, it was impossible to 100% filter out the negativity of each individual.
but.
It’s not something you can say yourself at an official event.
[… … I always feel sorry for the variables that player Kim Si-moon experienced.]
Galaxy Arena cautiously expressed its regret.
But the momentum was clearly weakening.
“That’s strange. I mean, that apology is… well… what should I say?”
The poem was written without even blinking an eye.
“I have received some compensation, but when I look back on what happened, it doesn’t feel like anything.”
I just wanted to continue talking.
[… … We too are not without our own mistakes and shortcomings, as you mentioned.]
[Although it is not an official background, player Kim Si-moon has various connections with Olympus… … .]
What does the poem want?
The Galaxy Arena is something you can’t help but know.
[For this one incident only, I hereby waive any responsibility and penalty imposed on Olympus.]
In the end, he waved the white flag.
of course.
[We would also like to inform you that ‘clear punishment’ has been applied to the parties involved in the variable mentioned by player Kim Si-moon.]
[Therefore, we hereby notify you in advance that if something like this happens in the future Myth Arena, ‘Gigantomachia,’ punishment from Olympus is inevitable.]
I left a warning, but that was it.
Because it was clear that Galaxy Arena had eventually retreated.
[Zeus is surprised and asks, ‘Really?’]
Of course, the constellation Zeus himself is the party concerned.
[Constellation Cheonma blinks, saying, ‘You’re going to back down like this?’]
[Constellation Ragha opens his mouth slightly and says, ‘You guys…? (Do you guys have a conscience?)’]
[Constellation Baal opens his eyes wide and exclaims, ‘Hmm?!’]
Other constellations also reacted with surprise.
This is natural.
[Constellation Michael nods, saying, ‘Karma is retribution… … Indeed, this is someone the Father is watching over.’]
[Constellation Odin exclaims, ‘Kiya! This is it! He even knows how to handle karma. Isn’t this guy’s ascension just around the corner?’]
[The constellation Black Goat bursts out in laughter, saying, “Kyaha! As expected, it’s our baby!”]
It continued with praise for the poem.
It was natural.
Of course, the new kings.
Wasn’t it the Galaxy Arena that didn’t hesitate to impose penalties on entire dimensions or races?
So Galaxy Arena has taken a step back.
I can’t help but be amazed.
Therefore.
[Zeus the constellation expresses his heartfelt gratitude, saying, ‘Kim Si-moon… … Thank you very much.’]
Zeus has been expressing his gratitude without responding.
“Don’t do this.”
A poem that waves its hand gently.
It wasn’t just that the gratitude of a divine king-level constellation was burdensome.
He was also the first new king to show interest in him.
“Zeus has helped me a lot in many ways.”
Including missions and sponsorships.
Didn’t it help you in many ways, such as with information or influence?
Because I knew this well.
“This is when we help each other.”
Shimun smiled softly at Zeus’ message.
Was it quite touching?
[Constellation Zeus is silent with wavering eyes.]
Zeus pauses for a moment.
Within.
[Zeus sends a passionate gaze, saying, ‘Kim Si-moon. You really are… . .’]
[Constellation Cheonma looks at him with a gaze like, ‘Wow! What a charming person. If it weren’t for the Cheonma Shingong, I would have… . . ‘]
Two constellations sending unidentifiable gazes.
at the same time.
[The constellation Ganymede looks at you.]
This is the first constellation I have ever seen in a poem.
Ganymede’s sudden reaction comes to mind.
of course.
“huh?”
Shimun tilted his head at the appearance of the unfamiliar constellation, but that was it.
[Zeus the constellation says seriously, ‘The enemy formation will soon finish selecting heroes. Take a short but thorough rest.’]
Ending with Zeus’s reaction.
No further reaction from the constellations came to mind.
As the situation began to calm down.
“Then where… … .”
Shimun checked the reward windows that came to mind first.
And then.
“under.”
A poem that makes one laugh out loud.
The reason was simple.
‘The atmosphere at the time was like that, and I had roughly expected it to end when it was forced to end… … .’
Task Golden Apple.
At that time, as Nick said at the end, I was trying to get another apple.
Although Galaxy Arena tried hard to prevent Nix’s intervention.
In the end, just like Nicks said, I obtained another apple, the ‘Apple of ?’
The task of the Golden Apple was over.
Naturally, Galaxy Arena considered all of this as causal and unplanned variables.
[You will receive ‘?’s Apple’ as a clear reward.]
‘The pre-arena reward was treated as an apology.’
There is no way they will pay proper compensation.
Well, I’m not saying I was overly disappointed or anything.
I didn’t feel any great regrets.
Given the Galaxy Arena’s track record so far, it wouldn’t have been strange if it had been recalled since it was considered a variable.
‘But they don’t take it back.’
Rather, didn’t they just pay compensation and end it?
Then suddenly it occurred to me.
‘Surely you’re not afraid of Nicks…?’
I had a fleeting thought, but that was it.
“Hey, that can’t be true.”
A poem that makes you laugh out loud.
Isn’t that right?
‘Even if he is the primordial god, he is still someone else’s Arenan.’
Even if he is the primordial god Nix.
It would cost a considerable amount to exert causal influence in other arenas.
The same goes for the imperfect divinity we currently possess.
A poem that already knows the cause and effect of the constellations to some extent.
‘Perhaps it was too much for Nyx to be so zealous with the Hesperides this time.’
I’m sure Nicks must have put in a lot of effort in this.
Swish.
I took out the black apple, this reward, from my inventory.
“Hmm.”
The sound of slurring followed immediately.
It was natural.
‘Just looking at it, it seems to be far from the golden apple… … .’
The real golden apples we saw earlier.
Didn’t you immediately feel that the vitality, which is a mythical stat, was incredibly concentrated?
If only it weren’t for the rewards of the task.
So much so that I wanted to absorb it right away.
In contrast, this black apple gives off nothing but the scent of a dark night.
‘Why did you go to all this trouble to get an apple?’
Shimun checked the information window of ‘?’s Apple’ with questioning eyes.
* * *
The Awakening Association of the Republic of Korea.
In the association president’s office on the top floor.
Tiringlyric.
The cell phone rings.
A middle-aged man with a cold expression confirmed this.
“You’re finally here.”
Association President Kim Moo-yeol recited silently.
A man standing like a stone statue at her side.
“Chairman, I think… … .”
Golem Choi Chang-wook showed some anxiety, but that was it.
As if to cut off Choi Chang-wook’s words.
“Jongli Chu. Are you ready?”
Kim Moo-yeol receives a call from Jong-ri Chu.
Maybe it’s because the topic has been discussed for some time now.
“An artificial island? You spent quite a bit of money. What date and time?”
The conversation wasn’t that long.
“It’s dawn the next day… … The time difference on the West Sea won’t be that big.”
Kim Moo-yeol nodded slightly.
“Okay, I’ll see you then.”
I cut off contact with Jongli Chu.
obviously.
“Chairman, please reconsider this matter.”
Choi Chang-wook immediately objects.
It wasn’t strange.
Deaths of previous Chinese challengers.
The conditions for meeting with Jongli Chui to cover it up are as follows.
“Or at least let me assist you.”
Because Kim Moo-yeol came out alone.
Before taking on the position of Secretary.
As for Choi Chang-wook, who has assisted Kim Moo-yeol since childhood.
“Choi Chang-wook. That story must have ended.”
“But, Chairman, no matter how sure the means are, isn’t there always a chance?”
Something unacceptable.
but.
“stop.”
Have you already made up your mind?
“I know that Jongli Chu smells. It was stupid to trust him in the first place.”
Kim Moo-yeol answers in a firm voice.
“But this work is absolutely necessary. Publicly, and… … .”
Even those unwavering eyes.
“Privately too.”
Because I knew all too well what that private part was.
“older brother…….”
Choi Chang-wook was just reciting the titles in private without realizing it.
Because we’ve been together for a long time.
Because Kim Moo-yeol also knew his mind well.
“Changwook, you don’t have to worry too much.”
Bam.
Pat Choi Chang-wook on the big shoulder.
“If you really care, you can sneak out some of the association’s valuable artifacts.”
He made a pointless joke without giving an answer.
Is it because his personality matches his size?
“… … Yes. I will prepare it before I leave work.”
Choi Chang-wook, who bowed his head modestly even in a joke, turned toward the entrance.
Therefore.
“Choi Chang-wook. Just in case, don’t mention this to Shi-moon.”
Kim Moo-yeol warned him by mentioning Shimun’s name.
Was it an over-worry?
“Of course. I will never mention it to you, Sir.”
To Choi Chang-wook, who answered without a single moment of hesitation.
“Okay. Let’s go out.”
He let out a sigh of relief and gave the order to evacuate.
So I couldn’t see it.
“… … Yes. Then take a rest.”
Contrary to the simple answer.
Damn it.
The somewhat determined face of Choi Chang-wook.
