I would never risk death without ‘immortality’.
[Pico: I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you Jincheonwoo’s location.]
“..hmm.”
Private cabin on a sea train.
I was looking down at my smartphone, lost in thought.
I asked Pico to find the missing Jincheonwoo, and got an unexpected answer.
I’ve made ridiculous demands for information fees before, but this is the first time I’ve been turned down like this.
[Me: Why doesn’t it work?]
[Pico: Because a cataclysm that the world cannot handle could occur!]
“It’s something grand. Anyway, it’s not possible.”
Tch.
I sighed. Just in case, I thought of a few other things related to Jincheonwoo.
I asked the question, but it was the same.
Pico avoided answering any questions related to Jincheonwoo.
[Pico: You and Jincheonwoo are polar opposites. I’m not just talking about simple differences in personality, but you’re in complete symmetrical positions from the very beginning. You never know what might happen if you two meet.]
“… … Okay. Okay. Okay.”
Judging from how you’re saying it, it looks like you’re absolutely not going to tell me.
Eventually, I turned off my smartphone and stood up.
Looking at the time, it’s 10 AM. It’s almost time to eat.
As I stood up, I found myself instinctively reaching for my mask.
For a moment, I burst into laughter.
“I guess I don’t have to use it anymore… …
I changed into some casual, comfortable clothes and went out of the room.
As I walked down the hallway toward the dining car, someone approached me with a familiar sound.
“Seniors!”
It was Seo-yoon Choi. She was brimming with energy from early in the morning, and it was just like seeing her in her first year of high school.
“Are you going to a restaurant?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“Oh. We can go together.”
She walked side by side with me.
On the way to the restaurant together.
As I’m doing this, old memories come flooding back to me.
Now that I think about it, I used to run into that girl quite often on my way to school.
“Oh, right. We’ll be arriving on land in three hours.”
“I heard. We should go to the association right away when we arrive.”
Choi Seo-yoon thought for a moment and then said.
“The whole world will be shocked, right?”
“I don’t think so. Since it’s not just anyone else, but Jin Cheon-woo who has returned, the repercussions will be quite big.”
The return of the world’s worst wizard who brought terror to the world.
Enormous enough to shake the world economy
It’s clear that it will have an impact, because everyone knows his dangerous ambitions.
Then Choi Seo-yoon shook her head.
“No. Not Jincheonwoo, but senior.”
I blinked at her.
“……me?”
“Everyone doesn’t know that you’re alive. Wouldn’t it be more shocking that you’re alive than Jin Cheon-woo’s resurrection?”
As she said, the fact that I am alive will probably cause quite a stir.
am.
King of Mine. And after the Croas incident, the character of ‘Kim Seon-woo’ would have left a big impression.
When I didn’t answer, Choi Seo-yoon stared at me and continued speaking.
“Are you sure you’re not going to reveal that you’re alive?”
“No. That’s not it.”
Since I no longer need to hide my identity, I plan to continue working as ‘Kim Seon-woo’ like before.
If it turns out I’m alive, I’ll get a lot of points.
That’s what I’m saying. I can’t give that up.
“Well, there’s no need to hide it anymore. I guess I should go back to being Kim Seon-woo.”
Seo-yoon Choi smiled brightly at those words.
Before we knew it, we had arrived at the dining car. As we entered, we heard a lively voice addressing us.
“Kim Seon-woo! Over here!”
Lee Seo-jun is sitting at the table and waving his hand loudly.
I snickered and approached them.
After returning to land, I was able to meet Kim Jin-cheol with Choi Il-hyeon and Lee Seo-jun.
He wasn’t particularly surprised, as he had expected me to be alive, but his expression hardened as he heard the explanation of what had happened on the Isle of the Dead.
“… … Jincheonwoo from another world. The worst has happened.”
By special order from the chairman, the Magic Association
It has entered a state of emergency.
When I thought about Jin Cheon-woo’s ambitions, I couldn’t know what kind of danger would come to the world or how many people would die.
The association soon began preparing to find traces of Jin Cheon-woo.

Accordingly, in order to reduce confusion among citizens, it was reported that the returns of Jin Cheon-woo and Kim Seon-woo would be announced simultaneously.
… … and the next day.
“The world’s worst wizard, ‘Jin Cheon-woo’. He’s back.”
News of Jin Cheon-woo’s return spread quickly.
As expected, the whole world fell into a state of great panic.
“The leader of 801, the identity of the ghost… … He was the king of the mines who were chasing Jaun, Kim Seon-woo.j
And an article about me came up too.
If we only consider the explosive power of the reaction, Jincheonwoo’s
It was not enough to be pushed back by the resurrection.
After that, various opinions were exchanged among citizens.
There was a heated debate in various broadcasting stations as some people thought he was the king of mines and should be guarded against, while others thought he was the hero of humanity who defeated Kruas.
Well, it wasn’t really that important to me.
[People all over the world are amazed by your appearance.]
[You will receive 30,000 points as a reward.]
[Achieve the ‘Return of the Hero’ achievement.]
[You will receive 5,000 points as a reward.]
[A major change has been detected in the future.]
[Causality increases by 3.]
Thanks to that, I got some salty points and causality.
“… … Jincheonwoo has finally been resurrected.
“That’s Jincheonwoo from another dimension. I didn’t expect that at all.”
Hansung Group Chairman’s Office.
While checking the newly acquired reward, Han Se-yeon’s voice was heard from the other side.
I brushed away the message in front of me and smiled bitterly.
“It was my fault. I should have been more aware of Kim Chang-hyun’s presence. I let my guard down.”
Han Se-yeon shook her head at the self-reproachful words.
“It’s not Sunwoo’s fault. You did your best to stop Ja-woon.”
She spoke to me comfortingly.
I didn’t say that because I wanted to be comforted.
The atmosphere became strange for no reason.
“Ahem.”
He cleared his throat for a moment and then said.
“We can block it by preparing well in the future. Now that we know what the bastard is, we’ll be able to deal with it.”
Even if we don’t find him, Jincheonwoo will move first to ‘recover’.
If you follow that trail, you’ll find him.
As I was thinking that, I felt a hard sensation under my feet.
It was Gretel who was playing alone.
I gave Gretel a fatherly smile and picked her up in a hug.
“Gretel, thanks to you I almost died again.”
“Huh?”
Gretel tilted her head at my words.
When I saw that, I felt a playful desire and tickled her hard side. But Gretel just looked down at me with expressionless eyes.
… … I still don’t get tickled.
“Still, that’s fortunate.”
At Han Se-yeon’s sudden words, I put Gretel down and looked at her.
“What?”
“I was able to reunite with my friends.”
“……ah.”
I laughed softly.
“A lot of the stuffy feeling has disappeared.”
Han Se-yeon closed her mouth for a moment. She looked at me with her eyes deep in thought.
He looked at me and smiled.
“I won’t be lonely anymore.”
“No. I wasn’t particularly lonely.”
Han Se-yeon made a questioning expression. I smirked and said.
“Se-yeon, you have always been my confidant. I am always grateful.”
For a moment, Han Se-yeon’s expression became blank.
Soon, he felt embarrassed and his face turned slightly red.
I felt embarrassed for no reason, so I hurriedly continued speaking.
“Oh, right. I have something to ask you regarding Jincheonwoo.”
“… … Ah. Yes. Go ahead.”
When Jin Cheon-woo’s name was mentioned, she suddenly came to her senses.
“As I told you, Jin Cheon-woo can use all the minor clan abilities. I need detailed information about what abilities they have.”
I personally investigated it, but there was a limit to discovering all the abilities of a small clan.
They had a strong insular nature, avoiding contact with the outside world, and thus lacked information.
Because of that.
There is also a way to use Pico, but this costs information, so it is a last resort.
“A minority clan… … Yes, I’ll look into it. It’s not difficult information, so I’m sure you’ll be able to find it easily.”
I nodded to Han Se-yeon’s words. As always, she is reliable.
At that moment, an alarm went off on my smartphone.
I was curious so I checked right away and there was a message from Seo-yoon Choi.
[Choi Seo-yoon: Senior, do you have time on Friday evening??]
… … Friday night?
I have time. I won’t be busy for the time being.
[Me: I have time, so why?]
The message was marked as read and I waited for a reply, but a minute passed and there was no reply.
“Is this your friend?”
I nodded at Han Se-yeon’s words.
“Oh, yes… … That’s right.”
And after about two minutes, a reply came.
[Choi Seo-yoon: I was thinking about having a meal together. I know a good restaurant near the association. I’ll buy you some!]
A snicker came out.
I wondered what it was, and it turned out to be the common ‘let’s have a meal.’
Come to think of it, there was something I forgot to give her.
Blessing of the Great Spirit of Seolsan Mountain.
It was an item that increased all abilities by up to 40% according to the ice attribute control technique.
It was of little use to me since I didn’t deal with the ice attribute, but I guess I’ll give it to you now.
[Me: Okay, let’s eat.]
[Choi Seo-yoon: Then is alcohol okay?]
Then, I was momentarily dazed by the message that came again.
……alcohol?
Now that I think about it, these kids are old enough to drink.
Choi Seo-yoon is also 22 years old this year.
[Me: I don’t mind, but are you drinking well?]
It says it’s been read, but again, there’s been no reply for over a minute.
I was trying to turn off the screen because I thought I was busy, but the message
I’m here.
[Choi Seo-yoon: I don’t know because I’ve never tried it… … .]
“……Eh?”
[Me: Aren’t you 22?]
[Choi Seo-yoon: I was planning to drink it when a special day came…]
When you say it like that, I’m speechless.
[Me: Okay. Just learn slowly. See you then.]
After sending that reply, he turned off his smartphone.
When I raised my head, Han Se-yeon was staring at me.
“What did your friend say?”
“Oh, he asked me to have a drink on Friday.”
“Friday? Oh… …
Han Se-yeon’s momentary regretful reaction
was shown.
“What’s going on?”
“No. I had some free time that day, so I was thinking of having a drink with Seonwoo.”
Then he hurriedly waved his hand.
“Ah! I don’t have to worry about it. I’ve met up with my friends again, so we should all get together and have a chat.”
“No. It’s not something that grand. I only meet one person.”
Han Se-yeon tilted her head at my words.
“… … One person? Who is it?”
“This is Seo-yoon Choi.”
I answered with a smile without thinking much.
And in that brief moment, Han Se-yeon’s expression hardened for a moment.
A space shrouded in deep darkness and a mysterious aura.
“… … Ugh.”
A murderous magical aura spread out with a small groan.
There were numerous drawings of magic on the floor, and on top of them lay a horribly shaped man whose form was difficult to recognize.
“……Oh God.”
The man’s true identity is Jin Cheon-woo, known as the world’s worst wizard.
He was barely able to escape the Island of Death thanks to the effect of ‘Protection of Survival’, but he was suffering from the aftereffects of the explosion of magical power that Kim Seon-woo had unleashed.
Bert, kneeling before him, looked at this situation with a sense of bewilderment.
I mobilized all mysteries, but Jin Cheon-woo
The body showed no signs of recovery.
“Oh my God. We have found a blood tree with regenerative properties. At least this… …
“……no use.”
Jincheonwoo used his magic to shake off the mysterious blood tree placed on Bert’s hand.
“This is not a problem of the body. It is a problem of the soul being polluted… …
Jin Cheon-woo gritted his teeth. The magic bomb that chaos had caused.
As he said, the explosion magic contained a curse magic.
And Jin Cheon-woo, who had a great deal of magical knowledge, was able to discover the true nature of the magic.
It was the curse of the ancient mines.
Chaos, who became the king of mines, was able to control that ancient magic.
“… … If the spell cannot be broken, then no mystery is meaningful.”
“If it’s sorcery… … ?”
He answered Bert’s question.
“We must find the mine shaman. As soon as possible.”
Jincheonwoo is confused, the face of ‘Kim Seonwoo’
I thought about it again.
The relaxed and confident smile she showed towards herself.
For the first time in his life, he felt fear. He had never felt this way even with his teacher, Kim Jin-cheol.
What he said kept going around in my head.
—I’m going to have to find you and kill you before you fully recover.
It wasn’t just a scare. He was definitely going to come find me… … .
A comprehensive magic training center not far from the Wizards’ Association.
“You were here.”
“Kim Seon-woo.”
At my call, Lee Seo-jun stopped training and turned his gaze to me.
Sweat dripped down his forehead. He looked a little tired, as if he had been quite focused on training.
He wiped his sweat with a towel and smiled.
He came to me.
“Wasn’t it hard for you to come? You’re getting attention from all over the world.”
I chuckled and lifted my hat slightly.
“No one recognized me because I was wearing a hat. And I never went around with my face bare to begin with.”
“Yeah. That’s true. So, why did you ask me to meet you here today?”
“It’s nothing special, I just thought you’d take a look at my training after a long time.”
As I said this with a shrug, Lee Seo-jun blinked.
I turned my gaze to the ‘Baekcheon’ in his hand.
“I guess I’m not used to that sword yet.”
As time passed, Lee Seo-jun became much stronger, but he was still unable to fully harness the power of ‘Baekcheon’.
That’s exactly why I came to him today to help him with that.
Now, only the final battle with Jincheonwoo remains. I have to maximize his power as soon as possible.
Lee Seo-jun smiled slightly, as if he understood what I meant belatedly.
“That’s right. This sword. It was the one you gave me, right?”
Those words were confident. I smiled slightly.
“What? I see you noticed.”
“It’s strange that you didn’t notice. Does it make sense to give away an SS-grade sword as an event?”
Lee Seo-jun laughed in vain as if he thought it was ridiculous even when he thought about it again.
I stretched lightly as I watched him like that.
“Anyway, do you still have the stamina to train? You need to become much stronger than you are now to face Jin Cheon-woo.”
At those words, Lee Seo-jun kept his mouth shut and made a bitter expression.
“… … I still have some stamina left, but I don’t know if it’s meaningful for me to become stronger.”
I looked at Lee Seo-jun at his unexpected words.
He, who was always full of courage, was saying things that didn’t suit him.
Lee Seo-jun, who had been observing my expression, continued speaking.
“I was worried that if I got involved in a clumsy way, it would lead to a worse situation. As you know, Jincheonwoo is after
“It’s me.”
” ah.”
I wondered what he was worried about, and it seemed like he was worried about the worst-case scenario that would arise because of him.
Well, that’s not wrong.
As he said, it might be safer to exclude Lee Seo-jun from the operation to subdue Jin Cheon-woo.
but.
“No, your strength is absolutely necessary to subdue Jin Cheon-woo.”
I know.
That his power was needed to completely finish off Jin Cheon-woo’s subjugation.
Although this is something that was covered in the original work, I also knew that it wasn’t something that was made up by Jin Cheon-woo.
Lee Seo-jun made a questioning expression at my words.
“Jin Cheon-woo is a meticulous guy. He anticipated his own death and prepared for his resurrection, and he actually succeeded in doing so.”
