Episode 274

Radiant Universe (5)

At that time, Jeongdo was obsessed with drawing in the dwarven dungeon.

Black Winry was sitting on the sofa in a dark space where the location could not be specified.

She was a bit nervous unless she was meeting Jeongdo, but currently she had a smile on her face.

She said in a cheerful tone as she sank into the soft sofa. It was a particularly excited voice.

“Hmm. After all, your mouth says you don’t like it, you don’t like it, but your body is honest. It’s okay. “It’s my masterpiece.”

Still, I didn’t expect you to use it so much in a short period of time.

Winry hummed and raised her right arm. It was a completely dark space, but for some reason, her pure white arms caught her eye.

Pot.

The blue light appeared on her pure white arms for a brief moment and then disappeared. It was only a split second that a normal person would have missed it even if she had been keeping an eye on her arm, but Winry was not a normal person.

She nodded as if satisfied.

It was weak, but strength was coming. It was all thanks to Jeong-do’s use of the ‘History Change’ draw.

Of course, the drawing system itself was given by the ‘real universe’ and you are just a copy and processing of it, so more energy goes to the ‘real universe’ than the amount of energy returned to you.

In terms of ratio, about 7:3? I really hated helping that obnoxious bitch, but… I couldn’t help it. There was a possibility that she could even endanger herself if she did not prevent the existence of her outer universe.

“It’s still a small amount compared to what we invested, but… … Because the important thing is to start. “Well, I have no intention of getting back what I invested.”

This may have been obvious, but it is very difficult to copy the library containing the records of the ‘real universe’ and then reconstruct history according to one’s own preference. Even if you were an agent of the universe, you would have to consume a huge amount of energy.

Therefore, it was not possible to reorganize the history of every being in the ‘real universe’, and it was mainly recreated by characters who had been loaded at least once. Of course, it is difficult to reduce the scope like that, so the reorganization is still in progress.

“Because we have a lot of time.”

The agent is basically just an observer. Unless something happens that will have a profound impact on the universe, it never moves.

In this nihilistic space where the concept of time is vague, I simply observed the universe for a long, long time.

Perhaps, if a miracle called <communication> that could communicate with everything had not appeared, there was no way the agent could have taken action other than the standard of visiting in person.

“What gift should I give you next time?”

Okay, since you have opened the ‘Absolute God’ level this time, shall we create a new ‘Absolute God’ through modification? However, this was a very difficult situation for me at the moment. The status of an absolute god was not so easy that even an agent could handle it carelessly.

No, to be honest, it is difficult to change a character even if he is not an ‘absolute god’. Changes must be made in a way that is advantageous to the degree, but the universe’s system does not allow such unilateral distribution.

It is clearly helpful to the degree, but a delicate balance must be maintained.

Instead of raising your level, you should make your personality weird.

Instead of giving rare skills or talents, other abilities should be lowered.

If you wanted to recreate a being that was superior to the existing one in all aspects, you had to pay a huge price. Scathak-Skadi was just such a being.

“Hmm. “Shall we change it like this?”

But even such a headache was only fun for Black Winry. I was able to smile and accept my hardships toward future possibilities.

Wiggle.

“oh. Are you happy too? Still, please be patient a little longer. Not yet… … We still have to wait a little longer. He is doing well for me, so the day will come soon when I will see the light.”

Something began to stir beneath the floor where she stretched out her legs.

Wiggle. Wiggle.

one two… … No, something much more than that responded to Winry’s words.

Some objects looked like black fog, while others looked like black mud. Although their shapes were different, they all had one thing in common.

It means that he is spewing out strong, very strong resentment.

It was a deep resentment that would have suffocated others several times, but Winry looked at them as if she loved them.

She spoke to them in a sweet voice.

“We will eventually become real. Because I and He will make it happen.”

To do that, you need to be a little stronger.

Black Winry’s hands began to move busily.

* * * * * *

“under. “There is no news.”

Squeak.

Jeongdo reclined his chair as much as possible and sighed. A lot of time has passed since I left the dwarven dungeon, but things in real life still haven’t progressed much.

No, to be precise, everything else was going smoothly.

The guild members were steadily becoming stronger, and although the number of dungeons was increasing, it was not at a level that could not be handled.

However, just one thing. The chase for the person from the ‘real universe’ and ‘karma’ was still unclear.

“That’s the most important thing.”

The Earth was steadily becoming stronger.

After the experience lock was lifted, the level of the dungeon also increased, but as always, humanity always found a way.

Science and mana technology were advancing day by day, and the survival rate was gradually increasing as dungeon patterns were actively shared.

It was not without crisis. Even if humanity becomes stronger at a rapid rate, the universe is vast and there are enemies that Earth’s current level cannot handle.

The most representative ones were the heavenly world and the demonic world… … Now that their demons are gone, that doesn’t matter either. In fact, there was no sign of any enemies higher than Elyos or Demons appearing since then. The occasional low-level demons that crossed over could easily be eliminated within the human race.

“We just have to catch those guys.”

But I don’t know where Dangchoi is. after.

Jeongdo scratched his head and frowned, but… … There was nothing particularly sharp about it. We simply asked for cooperation from SS-level users in each country. Let yourself know if you discover traces of what you think is karma or encounter a phenomenon that is impossible to understand.

Of course, such information was worth thousands of dollars, but… … Most SS-level users were people who owed their lives to Jeongdo in China.

Fortunately, among the SS class, there was no one shameless enough to forget such a favor, and all of them willingly promised to cooperate with Jeong Do.

“I can’t help it. “I have no choice but to do what I can.”

Developing measures to overcome any crisis. Prevention was the most important thing in anything.

Fortunately, if I combined the rewards I got from Winry this time with the things I got from the dwarves’ dungeon, it seemed like something very worthwhile would come out.

‘I should use the fragments of the beginning as soon as the purification is over.’

The fragments had been left in the dwarves’ dungeon. Since he could not use the power of time for the demonic neutralization process, he asked them to do the second process.

‘It was great to get <Contempt of Evil>.’

It was great that there were no normal results, but what was even better was that there were no debuffs due to luck. Now, no matter how much misfortune Cú Chulainn spread, he was no longer afraid. As the relics of the gods he had had limitations, it was important to solidify his basic luck.

And here’s one more thing.

If you use the new draw function you received from Winry, you might… … Something very interesting will be born. In fact, Winry had no intention of giving her this ability, but her degree insisted on giving it to her after learning of its existence in outer space.

After thinking for a while, she said it seemed possible and opened up the possibility to Jeong Do. She could be said to be the most secret weapon among the weapons that Jeong-do can currently use.

“I want to try it. Well, it’s still dangerous to do it on Earth… .”

It was then.

bang!

“older brother!”

Haesik slammed open the office door and came in. It was clearly wrong to burst open the guild leader’s office without knocking, but he did not point out that mistake. Because his expression looked so urgent.

“older brother. “I got news from my brother!”

Here, “hyung” did not refer to himself, but to Kang Hae-jun, an SS-level user from the Republic of Korea. Hae-sik’s words reminded Jeong-do of him.

‘Hae-joon is definitely… Did he say he was off to South America with Ellie to do some volunteer work?’

When I heard the news, I remembered briefly admiring him as still a diligent person. And perhaps some news had come from them.

Jeong Do jumped up from his seat at Hae Joon’s next words.

“It seems like my brother has discovered a type of dungeon that has never existed before! My guess is that it has something to do with karma… .”

“I go first!”

Jeong Do used the skill even before Haesik finished speaking.

<Calling.>

It is a high-end teleportation skill that allows you to call the person you have made a covenant with and even move over to their side.

however.

Tiring.

<User Kang Hae-jun is currently in a location that blocks skill <Calling>.>

<User Ellie McDowell is currently in a location blocking the skill <Calling>.>

<The barrier blocking the skill <Calling> is in effect.>

“what?”

I looked at the notification window as if I couldn’t believe it. It’s not a ban on space movement, but a ban on <calling>?

“… “I think I found the right one.”

The skill <Calling> is a skill that only you can use. This is a skill acquired through the title you earned on Sky Island.

No, if I were to be particular, there could be one more person.

‘The real me in the universe.’

He would know <Calling> and be able to defend against it. Jeong-do hurriedly ran out of the office.

* * * * * *

A remote area of ​​South America.

Hae-joon and Ellie were exploring the jungle. Ellie started to get irritated by the high humidity.

“Hey, Hae-jun. Do you really have to come here? We’ve already cleared the dungeon we were aiming for, right? And that too for free!”

“haha. Just hold on a little longer. I have a favor to ask from Mr. Jeong Do. “Let’s take a look around a little more.”

Currently, Hae-jun is heading to the place where the ‘Dungeon Terror’ occurred in South America in the past. Although there was no clear evidence, everyone said that karma must have intervened.

The last time I met him, he asked me to let him know if I found any traces of karma. And now that he was in South America, he thought it would be a good idea to take a look at the place, so he was moving on.

“That damn level! degree. hey. Hae-jun! Your lover is not Jeong, but me! “Pay attention to me more than the degree!”

“haha. That’s natural. But Mr. Jeong is also Ellie’s lifesaver.”

“… joy. “Let’s finish it quickly.”

When it was said that it was a lifesaver, Ellie’s reaction softened. She also knows that she is a good person. She was just throwing her tantrum because she wanted Hae-joon’s attention.

Hae-joon approached her to comfort her, but Ellie reflexively took a step back. She said to him with a shocked expression.

“Hey, it’s good that you’re coming closer. Can you please let go of that look? “I’m reluctant because it’s so foreign.”

“But you never know when danger will strike. There may be wild beasts, and there may even be karma.”

Hae-joon’s current appearance was not what I knew before.

His facial features became more sculptural than before and he grew taller. The original facial shape remained, but he was much more handsome than that. And even Jeongdo was plastered with luxury items that made your eyes sparkle.

It’s like plastic surgery… No, in some ways it was like plastic surgery. Because Hae-jun’s current appearance is not his real-life appearance, but rather a reflection of the appearance and equipment of his ‘game avatar’.

It wasn’t just the degree that got stronger as time went by.

Hae-jun also honed his power and developed the only skill <Character Load>, and as a result, he was able to not only load the game character’s abilities, but also load his appearance and equipment.

“is it so? I think this one looks better… .”

“Ugh. That’s true, but it’s so unrealistic that I can’t get used to it.”

“Then you can get used to it. huh?”

It was then.

Support position.

A fine crack appeared in Hae-joon’s eyes. An unmistakable sign of a dungeon. Ellie must have felt it too, so she reflexively took out the Dungeon Annalize from her bag and held it in front of the dungeon crack.

Beep beep beep.

“joy. What, it’s only a B-level dungeon? At this level, there’s no need for us to step forward, right? Let’s just ignore it and go back, okay? “Go to the city and play with me.”

“wait a minute. “I’ll look into it a little more.”

“joy. you idiot!”

Ellie grumbled again, but still didn’t move away from Hae-joon. Hae-joon chuckled to himself and then observed the dungeon closely, soon discovering something strange.

“this… “The crack color is strange.”

“… … uh? “Is that so?”

The color of cracks in dungeons is usually red, close to pink. But the crack in front of me… It was crimson itself, thicker than blood.

I felt something coming.

‘I’m sure Mr. Jeong-do said that Karma manipulated the dungeon last time.’

Was it at Mt. Fuji? There was another dungeon within the dungeon, and I remembered saying that it was karma’s work.

It smelled.

An area suspected of being terrorized by Karma. And a different dungeon appeared there.

A suspicious smell was assailing my nose.

“Let’s go in. Even if it’s an irregularity, if it’s a B-level problem, we can resolve it among ourselves, and if it’s a crisis, Mr. Jeong can come. “If it’s just B grade, we can solve it ourselves.”

“under. okay. “Do whatever you want.”

“yes. Before that, I contacted Haesik for a moment… done.”

Hae-joon, who manipulated the Mana Watch and sent a text message, entered the dungeon with Ellie.

Although the decision was made with the intention of helping Jeongdo and with the spirit of service to South America, which has poor public safety.

In the end, it was the worst.

As soon as I entered the dungeon, I heard a male voice as if I had been waiting.

“Welcome. I waited long.”

“Eh? human?!”

“Ellie! “Get off!”

Hae-joon sensed something was wrong and rushed forward, but the gunman’s strength was surprising. He was definitely not someone worthy of belonging to a B-class dungeon.

pop!

“Wow!”

Hae-joon fell to the ground and vomited blood after being struck by the gunman’s outstretched fist. He laughed out loud as he looked at Ellie, who had turned pale, and Haejoon, who had collapsed.

“Finally, the final puzzle has come together. This is the beginning of your secret wish! Haha!”

The strange man’s roar rang out in the cave inside the dungeon.
