Episode 657. The End of War and Daily Life (2)
“Manager. From now on, please run this place on a membership basis. Be selective about who you hire.”
A middle-aged woman who gave off a luxurious vibe at first glance spoke in a commanding tone.
“I guess this is your first time here.”
“Well, if you knew, you wouldn’t have done that so carelessly.”
The bodyguards standing behind her also added a word, seeming to agree with the woman’s words.
They are all capable of handling magical powers.
No, to be exact, I was one of the players who was quite good at handling magic power.
‘I guess that woman is one of those guys who’s been talking a lot about being noble and all that lately.’
Also known as the new aristocracy.
Those who knew how to properly utilize the great treasure called the Tower of Trials soon created a new class.
Beyond the second or third generation of a conglomerate, he has risen to a new position that not only the government but even the guild cannot touch.
Exclusive access to magic stones and colored relics that can only be obtained from the tower.
Based on this, he was able to obtain enormous wealth, fame, and power by forming close alliances with the residents within the tower.
Under the pretext of saving humanity, he was also granted a position higher than that of a diplomat by the government.
It is said that a fox will rule a tiger’s den where there is no tiger.
That’s exactly what it looked like now.
“Did you hear what I said?”
The woman urged him again.
Then the manager bowed at a 90-degree angle and started to struggle.
“Yes, ma’am. I will make sure to be careful with the guests.”
“While you’re at it, don’t let your pets in either. Do you think that black mutt has some kind of disease and are letting him in without permission?”
“Mosquitoes? Mosquitoes!!!”
The sweet potato that was eating the magic stone under Jinhyeok’s feet showed its teeth.
I don’t know about anything else, but I couldn’t stand the expression ‘strange mutt’.
Jinhyuk tried hard to calm down Goguma, who was flapping her arms.
maybe….
Anyone who knew Ellis von Ataraxia before her memories were manipulated would never have said such a thing.
The episode of Yeongdeungpo’s Jaeshin was an incident that was often talked about among the conglomerates.
‘There were a few pillars there that belonged to Ellis.’
The image of Ellis sweeping up everything she touched, calling it the hand of God, became famous on social media for a while.
But that’s a thing of the past.
These days, girls in cosplay are taking over companies and such… It’s only natural for onlookers to be dumbfounded.
Teresa of the Rosenberg family should have known, but the other party did not seem to know her well.
Well, in a normal situation like this, you would probably just apologize and back off.
the problem is….
For Ellis, such things are of no importance. She is a noble pureblood who always believes that she is the order and law of the world.
That’s why, for Ellis, anything that was annoying was always just something to be gotten rid of.
It is said that the title of ‘Queen of Haughtiness’ was not given to her for nothing.
Especially, the resentment against the new aristocracy and such that had emerged over the past six months had reached its peak, so the little patience that was left disappeared in an instant.
And flinched.
Magic began to form at the tips of Ellis’ fingers.
“hey!”
Jinhyuk shouted urgently.
If we were not careful, a hotel could disappear from the map of Seoul.
“I dare you to go….”
Ophelia, a former member of Decathus, bares her fangs.
“Tsk tsk. You must be so crazy that you want to die. Why bother picking a fight with me when I touch you?”
“Hahaha. That’s how everyone is at first. Didn’t we pick a fight with the owner at the museum too?”
Lee Yuri and Min Jeongwoo clicked their tongues as they watched moths flying into the fire.
“Thank goodness my memories weren’t erased. Otherwise, wouldn’t I have done something like that without knowing?”
“I agree.”
Melena and Tristan of the Mine Association also sighed.
Everyone had a keen idea of how fearsome Jinhyuk and his members were.
Right then.
New members took up their swords in place of Ellis.
“Bro. Can I kill these guys? They seem like bad guys.”
“Yeah, yeah. You have a face that looks like it could be chopped into small pieces. That lady in particular would be prettier without her nose and ears.”
Pleasure killer.
Casey and Jude Law asked Jinhyuk with innocent faces.
In his hand he held a knife used for cutting meat.
“Are these kids crazy? Why do kids interfere when adults are talking?”
The bodyguard immediately released his magic.
As expected of someone with A-class skills, his magical powers were quickly tangible.
however.
“uh…?”
Without even blinking, the girl in front of me disappeared.
Phew.

About 0.1cm.
Something sharp pierced through the blazer and into my flesh.
A drop of blood flowed.
Casey looked up, grinning.
Her maddened eyes stared at the man.
It’s close enough that we can breathe together.
The girl’s sweet voice whispered in my ear.
“Sir, what does your insides look like? Is it red like everyone else’s? Or is it a different color?”
“I’ve been looking hard to see if there are any other colors, but so far they’re all red.”
Phew!
The blade went in a little deeper.
“Okay, wait a minute…!”
The bodyguard’s voice became urgent.
I felt the fear of death instinctively.
“Can I kill you? My brother said it’s okay to kill bad people.”
“Hold on. If you see blood here, it’ll be hard to clean up. There are too many witnesses.”
“Then what if I kill them all?”
“Yeah, yeah. If there are no witnesses, it’s called a locked room murder! Or you can just cut him up into pieces so that he can’t be identified. Right?”
Jude Law also chimed in cheerfully.
The bodyguard’s face turned pale at the bloody conversation.
Kuung!
“Eek! Sa, save me!”
Eventually, unable to overcome his fear, he collapsed on the spot and peed himself.
“Ugh!”
“These are….”
The rest of the guards tried to pull out their weapons from subspace.
but,
Crunch!
Clank!
The meteor moved like lightning.
As soon as the ‘Song of the Sword’ was activated, the weapons that had half-revealed themselves in the subspace were cut down.
[The special effect of the Holy Relic ‘Claus Solas’ ‘Survival of the Strong’ is activated!]
[You can destroy items of lower grade than your own.]
“What, what is it?”
“What have you done?”
An item can destroy another item. I’ve never heard of such a thing.
There must have been some strange trick going on.
When you decide to do so and try to activate your unique ability.
“If you use your ability….”
Cheon Yoo-seong’s voice, as cold as ice, rang out.
“I will kill you.”
This is not a threat. It is certainly not a feeble warning.
He simply stated the truth calmly.
Kukukukukukuku!
An enormous pressure weighed down the entire first floor of the hotel.
Those who were overwhelmed by the momentum of the swordsman were unable to even lift a finger.
The only one who wasn’t discouraged was a charming middle-aged woman.
“Do you know who I am and do such things? It seems as if you don’t know much about this side of things. If you knew who I am, you wouldn’t have dared do such things… You lowly creatures!”
The woman screamed in anger. Judging by the fact that her face was bright red, she seemed to be very angry.
In the past, there were no fearless little guys who would rush in.
It’s a bit uncomfortable to lose your memories like this.
Jinhyuk chuckled, feeling a new sensation for the first time in a while.
Although it was annoying to see those new nobles acting like they were nothing but a bunch of idiots, they had their own useful points.
‘It’s like organizing the steps of a small tower.’
It is also the case that useful items, including magic stones, are gathered in one place.
Treasures and information saved while sweating like an ant.
This one just waits until it’s ripe enough to eat, and then when the time is right, you just devour it all at once.
This means that you can avoid the trouble of searching every nook and cranny of the tower.
“If you knew who we were, you would have thought carefully about every word you said.”
Jinhyuk left the hotel, leaving behind the woman who was staring at him intently.
I took some time to rest and make plans for the future.
Now is the time to move on to the next step.
* * *
Tower of Trials, 26th floor.
The alliance members who had finished restoring each level that had been devastated by the covenant began to gather one by one.
“You came.”
“It’s been a while. Has everything been fine?”
“Thanks to your concern, everything was fine.”
The levels and races are all different.
However, they were connected by a deep bond because they had risked their lives and struggled for one goal.
“Thanks to you, we were able to overcome a great crisis. Our entire tribe was able to survive.”
Caracal of the Frostblade tribe bowed his head to Jinhyeok.
“We too are honored to be able to fight on the same side as you.”
The Empire’s Grand Swordmasters Abraham and Pesis also bowed to Jinhyuk.
“Hahahaha! My disciple doesn’t go around getting beaten up.”
“Even Prince Yoo Seong had a hard time.”
The dark and the concubine.
And there were also those from the political sect.
“Is your Majesty okay?”
“Hmm. His Majesty suffered severe internal injuries in the last fight. He has recovered a lot, but he is not yet at a level where he can engage in external activities.”
It was a bit overwhelming for Cheonma to go one-on-one with Tulcha. It was only natural that there would be repercussions when he faced the ancient being alone.
In addition, the gods of various powers, including Olympus, Northern Europe, Egypt, and the Demon World, gathered.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve been to another level for sightseeing and fellowship rather than fighting a war.”
“It’s a bit suspicious that that idiot-like person paid for the stairs….”
“Let’s not think so negatively. After all, we fought so hard for you, so why would you just try to take advantage of us?”
The gods each spoke a word.
Without seeing Jinhyeok smiling strangely.
‘One slave… Two slaves… Three slaves.’
Entrance fees, transportation costs, food and beverage costs, labor costs, value-added tax, etc.
The invitation was filled with various expenses written down in 0.01mm increments.
There was even a poison pill clause that said if you don’t pay by the due date, they have to grant your wish.
Since we’ve created a mandatory invitation through Rick, there’s going to be some pretty interesting situations unfolding in the future.
Of course, it’s a fun situation only for me.
But right then.
Damn it.
“I guess you’re still being mean.”
An unfamiliar yet nostalgic voice rang out.
Our precious viewers who have shared joys and sorrows with us as we climbed the Tower of Trials to the top.
It was a hawk owl.
“It’s been a long time since we last met.”
The owl waved a greeting with one arm.
