The Return of the High-ranking Civil Servant
‘I finally got my hands on this.’
Kusunagi’s sword.
A sword that symbolizes the hero Susanoo, and one of the three sacred treasures of Japan that the exiled Susanoo obtained after defeating Yamata no Orochi.
Suho immediately checked the information about Kusunagi’s sword.
[Amano Murakumono Tsurugi]
– Grade: S+
# The sword that was attached to Yamata no Orochi’s tail.
# It is a very famous sword and also a divine sword imbued with the power of an evil god.
Simple information.
Moreover, its name is not Kusunagi’s sword, but Amanomurakumonotsurugi.
Suho knows the reason.
‘Amano Murakumo Tsurugi is a plus-grade weapon, that is, one with information volatility. A special event is needed to change Amano Murakumo Tsurugi into Kusunagi’s sword.’
And Suho knows what that event is.
Because Amanomurakumonotsurugi is an item that originates from a typical Japanese myth.
Suho held the Amanomurakumonotsurugi tightly.
Then, Amanomurakumonotsurugi began to resonate and cry.
It responds to the user’s will.
At the same time, an unpleasant aura began to rise from the sword.
‘also.’
Suho quietly raised the corners of his mouth as he sensed a peculiar unpleasant aura.
As expected, it’s a new sword.
No, to be exact, it should be called a magic sword.
That’s because, as stated in the description, the Amanomurakumo-no-Tsurugi was born from the tail of an evil god, so in order to use this sword, a considerable amount of mental strength was needed to withstand the evil god’s energy.
Otherwise, like most magic sword users, you’ll either go crazy or be possessed by the magic sword.
Suho thought back to when this was discovered in his past life.
Surprisingly, the one who conquered this place was none other than Endo.
Wanting to test the power of the newly created poison, he requested a sealing gate from the Eiyen, and she melted Yamata no Orochi entirely with the newly created poison, and in the process, Amano Murakumo no Tsurugi was discovered.
‘No matter how toxic the poison is, it won’t melt weapons.’
However, Endo, who had no greed for the sword, sold it to Sotheby’s, the world’s largest auction house, and enthusiasts who knew the legend of Amano Murakumo no Tsurugi bought it, but they were all obsessed with Amano Murakumo no Tsurugi, and in the end, it ended up being bought back by the Japanese government.
Anyway, Amanomurakumonotsurugi is an item that originated from Japanese mythology.
Suho put the sword in his inventory, leaving it for later.
He then summoned his spear and embedded it into Yamata no Orochi’s corpse.
[Gwiyeongchang reacts to the shadow of the red-faced Yamata no Orochi.]
Shadow food that I’m feeding after a long time.
Suho then turned on the status window and started distributing bonus stats.
First of all, I made the strength stat into navy grade.
[Strength stat has reached 100.]
[ Strength stats grow even further . ]
[Congratulations! Your Strength stat has leveled up and you’ve reached Navy Grade!]
Next, I made the green color sense stat into blue color.
[ Sense stat has reached 100 . ]
[ Sense stats grow even further . ]
[ Congratulations! Your sense stat level has increased to Blue! ]
There are 24 bonus stats remaining.
After thinking for a moment, Suho invested all his power into magic and refreshed the status window.
[ An Su-ho ]
– Lv: 237
– Class: Rage Crusader
– Characteristic ▲: ＜New Blood＞＜Hercules Candidate＞＜King of Destruction＞＜Sealed Moon Magic＞＜Power of the Sun＞＜Power of the Moon＞
– Strength (N): 1
– Horsepower (N): 25
– Sense (B): 1
– Leadership (N): 56
– Bonus stat: 0
Suho burst into laughter after seeing the status window.
Already have two navy color stats.
It’s an unbelievable speed when you think about my past life.
‘How long did it take to reach purple stat… … .’
But now it’s still the early stages of the cataclysm.
Of course, it was stranger that Suho, who knew all the information, couldn’t do this.
Besides, timing doesn’t really matter.
‘Whether it’s early, middle, or late, it’s better to finish it quickly when you can.’
I thought that the world I was currently experiencing was not like a scenario game where I had to clear the five disasters in order, and that it was right to end them before the difficulty level increased even a little.
‘Of course, not all of the five major disasters have appeared yet.’
[Gwiyeongchang has completely absorbed the shadow of the red-faced Yamata no Orochi.]
[ The ghost window is strengthened . ]
Shadow absorption also ended at that time.

But this time, the fifth stage of liberation of Guiyingchang was not achieved.
Suho narrowed his eyes and summoned the guy back.
“How much more do I have to feed you?”
This guy has really high maintenance costs.
After that, Suho retrieved the guy’s magic stone and only then prepared to go out of the gate.
I had no intention of going down the mountain to tell the old couple the news of victory.
Because the quest didn’t even appear.
As Suho, disguised as Hiro, enters the exit portal, his body glows brightly.
*
“Huh, huh?!”
“Hey, the gate line… …!”
“oh my god……!”
Outside the gate.
The Self-Defense Forces, who had been waiting for Suho, all opened their eyes wide at the disappearing gate line.
This is because Chairman Hiro really conquered this place all by himself.
Of course, it took some time.
Because a whole day has passed.
But how important is that?
As Suho came out of the square, the waiting Self-Defense Forces came out in droves to welcome Suho.
“Thank you for your hard work!”
“You really worked hard!!”
“You have done a truly amazing job… … !”
Suho responded to their hospitality with appropriate humility.
Then he bowed his head and left the room.
The Self-Defense Force members, including the director, quietly exclaimed in admiration at the sight.
“Hey… … .”
“That’s really cool.”
“That’s a man.”
“Uh… I guess that’s the samurai spirit.”
“I want to post this on Twitter.”
“Will it work?”
“I guess that won’t work?”
“Everyone, be quiet and prepare to evacuate. The gate is gone, so we’ll probably have to do some demolition work.”
“Eek?”
“What the, huh? Get ready quickly!”
“All right.”
The crew begins preparing for demolition with gloomy expressions.
*
Suho, who had just gotten a little farther away from the gate, immediately called Miyamoto.
“Vice Minister? This is Yasuda.”
– Oh, Chairman Yasuda. What’s the matter?
“I’m not calling you to report anything. I just wanted to report that we’ve cleared the gate.”
– ……yes?
“I just conquered an old legendary gate.”
– … … ?
Miyamoto is at a loss for words.
It can’t be helped.
Because it was one of the places classified as highest risk without any data.
When there was no answer, Suho asked again.
“Deputy Secretary?”
– Oh, yes, yes! I was so surprised that I had to stop for a moment… … .
“No. I already told the director in charge there, so you can discuss the details with him. I’ll take a short break and continue attacking the gate.”
– Okay. Oh, wait a minute.
“yes?”
– Could you please… … give me some information about the gate you conquered?
“Of course. I will write a report and send it to you.”
– Really?
“Of course I should do this much. Okay.”
Suho answered kindly.
Actually, there is no reason not to do it.
In the first place, it is the power that provides the gate, so there is no reason to be unfriendly to them.
After finishing the call, Suho checked the piling up contacts on his phone.
The first thing that stands out is the absence of Representative Ion.
I called right away.
“Sir, you called?”
– Oh, yes. I’m contacting you because the items you requested are ready.
“All of them, including Yuncheol and Hwanggeum?”
– Yes, since they are both items, I have them for now. Where should I send them to?
“I will go to where you are. It would be difficult to move 111kg of gold without permission, so I think it would be better for me to go. Where are you?”
– I’m in my office in Korea… … Aren’t you in Japan right now? If you’re busy, you can take your time.
“There’s nothing more urgent than this. I’ll be there soon. Just leave the address.”
– All right.
Suho smiled after finishing the call.
The timing is good.
I was going to start talking about Yuncheol and Hwanggeum anyway.
While I was away, I received a call from Jeong Cheol-min, but when I checked the text, it was just a simple call to ask how I was doing, so I decided to reply later.
After thinking for a moment, Suho called Hiro and told him that he had conquered the old legendary gate.
– Oh, congratulations, Master!
“Congratulations. Anyway, I will send the report to the vice minister, so please know that. And there is no need to keep this gate attack a secret. If you want to use it as marketing material, feel free to do so.”
– No. Even so, it was the Master who conquered it, so how could I… … .
“Think of it as the value of your face. And even if you don’t use it as information, I’ll be walking around with your face on it, so wouldn’t rumors spread?”
– Well, that’s true too. But I’ll try to remain as humble as possible.
“Do whatever you want. I’ll contact you again.”
After finishing the call, Suho finally got on the horse.
The destination was Seoul.
*
Suho arrived in Seoul in about an hour.
Ion was astonished.
How long has it been since I called and you’re already here?
Ion said, swallowing a laugh.
“Are you coming by jet or something?”
“I ride something similar. Anyway, thank you for your hard work. It must have been a lot, but you still saved me.”
“No. If someone asked you to do me a favor, of course I should help them. Should I show you the item first?”
“Take your time. I have something to tell you.”
“Is that so?”
“Please give me something warm.”
At Ion’s direction, the secretary brings out the car.
Suho took a sip of tea and explained what had happened.
“Haha, as expected, you are the manager.”
“You’re not that surprised?”
“Those kinds of things… … I’m more surprised by your ability to travel between Korea and Japan easily than by those things.”
“That’s because a new summoner has been created. Would you like to see it?”
When Suho showed off his iron horse, Ion was lightly impressed.
“Your name is Iron Horse?”
“Yes.”
“It’s like Lu Bu has a Red Hare. Congratulations.”
“It was a bit hard to get. Oh, and this.”
Suho took out a few magic stones from his inventory and handed them to Ion. One of them belonged to the Yamata no Orochi that had been hunted this time.
“Sir, this is… … .”
“I have to pay for the goods. Of course, it won’t be worth 111kg of gold, but I will continue to pay for the goods as they become available.”
“Haha, thank you. I like magic stones better than gold. Gold can be bought with money, but magic stones are harder to obtain the higher the grade.”
“I would appreciate it if you would think so.”
“Then I will show you the items right away.”
Suho follows Ion’s guidance.
And the place they arrived at was a private room, where Suho could see neatly organized iron objects and piles of gold.
“I reweighed it several times and prepared a little more than you told me just in case.”
“Thank you. This is enough.”
“How would you like me to move it for you?”
“You don’t have to move it. I’ll take care of it right here. So, please take a rest for a moment.”
“Oh, yes. I understand. There are no eyes watching here, so you can use it slowly.”
As Ion politely bowed and left, Suho finally turned his gaze to look at Uncheol and Hwanggeum.
“Then shall we begin?”
Suho’s hand turns towards Yuncheol.
