Lee Jae-yeol -2- [End of Volume 2]
Sincheon-dong, Songpa-gu.
The three twin towers still stand imposingly.
I got out of the taxi and looked at the super tower for a while.
‘I have to go in.’
Suddenly, it occurred to me that my golf bag was a bit cumbersome.
Instead of throwing it away, I opened my golf bag and took out the Holy Sword.
After stroking it a few times, put it on your belt.
My golf bag sank because I didn’t bring any firearms.
With the golf bag on your back and the holy sword hanging long, you immediately attract attention.
“Mom. Look at that old man over there!”
“Shh! Don’t point.”
“Why is that old man carrying a knife?”
“I told you to be quiet.”
All eyes were on them.
A gaze that seems to pierce through the face.
I took the pistol out of my right pocket and stuck it into my belt.
That’s all for armament.
The gloves are still on as vampire gloves.
Park Dae-yeop’s modified steel armor was difficult to use.
It was just given the same strength ability, but it was too big.
Gloves for use in martial arts.
Since I couldn’t even hold a sword or use a gun, I sold it through Chief Choi.
Thanks to Ebony, Viper, and the Vice President’s corpses, I was able to recoup the money I spent on fighting the war and become a multi-billionaire.
People start chattering and moving away from me.
Now there are only two people watching me.
Security guards standing like jangseung in front of the super tower.
“ah!”
One of the security guards exclaimed.
“Excuse me, aren’t you the person who came last month?”
“you’re right.”
“Wait a minute. I remember you were level 1 last month, but you’re now level 3?”
Public armament is a privilege of superhumans of level 3 or higher.
The security guard opened his mouth, then nodded.
“The old Parents’ Sect is truly amazing. They were able to turn a level 1 superhuman into a level 3 in just one month.”
To be exact, it took a month and a little more, but let’s get rid of the Ussuri.
I shook my head slowly.
“No. I didn’t become a knight.”
“Yes? But your weapon is······”
“If I had been baptized properly, I would have carried a badge of communion with me. I wouldn’t have worn clothes like this.”
“aha.”
The security guard barely understood after seeing my clothes.
A pair of tracksuits over a protective suit.
If Director Choi hadn’t filled my closet with such good taste, I would have come wearing a worn-out shirt and jeans.
If I were a paladin of the old Father’s cult, I would have come wearing plate armor, or at least blessed chain mail.
Because divine power reacts particularly well to metal.
“take care.”
Enter the super tower.
The revolving door opened and an open interior greeted me.
A second sight, but still an amazing sight.
The building is supported by magical power without a single pillar.
All that is visible is a huge plaza reminiscent of a soccer field.
‘That’s amazing.’
Is it because it’s level 3?
We were able to see a different scene than before.
The flow of magical power that flows beautifully like a mosaic painting.
That elegant, sophisticated and beautiful melody.
It looks like a magic circle was drawn in the air by swiping it.
Additionally, the invisible magic circle reacts with my magic circuit and transmits a strange resonance.
The magic will naturally subside and your body and mind will relax.
What’s even more amazing is that the magic circle becomes more concentrated as you go up the levels.
What would it feel like to go to the second floor, the third floor, or perhaps the top floor?
I don’t know for sure, but just sitting in it will give you a pleasure close to ecstasy.
“Wahahahaha!”
“Congratulations, congratulations!”
“You are number one among your peers!”
It was noisy inside.
A crowd of armored men gathered around the magic circuit measuring device.

They all wore the same armor.
Black chainmail armor.
The cloak on his back was also black, with gold stripes drawn all over it.
Attire of a Black Gold Order Templar.
The weapon is not visible.
Probably not armed since it’s level 2.
Just two people.
Except for one who is congratulated by being hit on the head and back by the paladins and their companions in plate armor rather than chainmail.
The armed knight smiled brightly.
“Thank you. Thank you all! I’ll treat you today!”
The paladin frowns as if he is displeased.
“This section. Didn’t you say you wanted to become a paladin? To become a paladin, you must renounce all worldly pleasures and dedicate your soul, mind, and body to your old father. I know you’re happy to have reached level 3, but you need to work harder.”
“Oh, Captain. But isn’t today a good day? I’m finally getting certified as a Level 3! I’ve been waiting for this day since I was in middle school!”
“Whew. Just for today.”
A man with a thick beard and sideburns.
He’s a typical Korean, but if he were half-white, I’d think he came straight out of a medieval European movie.
‘Your face looks familiar.’
Where have I seen you?
There is only one.
Mobile game, Arcane Seoul.
It was when I was looking at the paladin and trying to recall my memories.
The knight also looked back at me, perhaps sensing my gaze.
After a moment, the paladin raises an eye as if in surprise.
“Nice to meet you. Aren’t you the one the saint baptized?”
The knight approaches and extends his hand without hesitation.
A luxuriously styled steel gauntlet.
A lion sculpture carved on the back of the hand.
It was only after seeing that I realized what it was.
“My name is Odusik.”
“Nice to meet you. I am Kim Jeonsa.”
Yeah, that was the name.
Lion Knight Odusik.
In the game, it was a level 5 dungeon boss.
But now that I look at it, it’s a little different from how it looks in the game.
How about something a little less flashy and less luxurious?
‘It’s level 4.’
A high-ranking knight by the standards of the old Father’s Sect.
Not yet a knight commander.
Seeing him mixed in with the Templars, he seems to be leading a unit of Templars.
“Excuse me, sir?”
The only armed paladin called Odusik.
“You are talking to unbelievers. It is not like a general to you.”
“Just because they are non-believers doesn’t mean they should be ignored.”
Odusik looked at me and said.
Sharp eyes scanned the space around me, the empty space.
“Even more so for one who rejected his old father’s blessing a month after his baptism.”
“yes?”
“What is that······”
After drinking the nectar, I always kept the black flame trait turned on.
Not now.
If you’ve reached level 3, it’s natural that you’ve overcome the fever.
Oh Du-sik was also pointing out exactly that.
“You overcame the fever···?”
The armed knight mutters as if his throat is choked.
Then he glared at me.
The enemy that was buried deep in those eyes.
Inferiority complex. Anger. Jealousy.
I was rather confused as all sorts of negative emotions were swirling around me.
Why is that kid like that?
“This section. Still haven’t gotten over your delusions?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
When Odusik points it out, he lowers his head.
But I could feel it.
A clear hostility towards me.
Oh, no way······
Was that priest also forcibly baptized and converted?
Like Seo Woo Jin?
Then it makes sense. You’re a holy warrior who’s wiping everything from the ground up, while I’m overcoming my fever and doing well.
Even if you choose the wrong person to blame, you’ve made a very wrong choice, but humans are not very rational animals to begin with.
“This section. Let’s start. It seems like that person has also come to get certified as a superhuman, so shouldn’t we step aside?”
“Yes, sir.”
The Paladin took a deep breath and stood in front of the authentication device.
As soon as I put my hand on it, it flashed and sparks flew.
Firefly-like sparks race in all directions beyond the pillar of light.
Letters writhe among waves of light.
[Lee Jae-yeol]
[man]
[25 years old]
[Warrior series]
[Level 3]
[Dual circuit]
The employee standing next to me, Baek So-rin, smiled brightly.
“Congratulations, Mr. Lee Jae-yeol! You have finally become a true superman! Shall I guide you to the lounge on the third floor?”
“Huh. No need.”
Lee Jae-yeol turned his body around in a cold manner.
Baek So-rin’s face twitched and spasmed, but she tried to smile and let it go.
“Oh, Lee Jae-yeol! Oh!”
“Genius Paladin Lee Jae-yeol!”
“Even Father can’t say anything!”
“Go and speak proudly! From today on, you are a knight of the old father’s sect!”
“No way! You can’t let your little brother take what’s yours! Fight for it! Fight for it!”
“Struggle!”
Bang bang bang!
The knights fired their celebratory shots loudly.
He took out the black-and-gold rifle he had kept in a large bag and fired it into the air.
I heard gunshots, and although they were warning shots, they didn’t cause any inconvenience.
Baek So-rin, standing right in front of him, trembled her eyebrows, and O Du-sik clicked his tongue, but he didn’t care.
“I’m sorry for being such a bunch of rascals. We’re the ones who grew up being spoiled, so we’re a bit noisy.”
“No, it could be. It’s something to celebrate since you’ve reached level 3.”
Oh Du-sik, this guy is really special.
It was the same in the game settings.
One of the few concepts of the old father’s sect.
Except for one weakness.
That’s what a fanatic is.
They say that a normally decent and knightly man would lose all sense of reason when he got involved with his old father or a saint.
Paladins firing their rifles into the air.
Lee Jae-yeol glances at me as he enjoys his joy inside.
A faint sense of superiority and triumph was on his face.
Is it really that proud to have reached level 3 and become a paladin?
Double circuit, i.e. on a class N topic.
Kim Jeon Sa is also N-class, but I am different now.
I passed by the knights who were still running around.
Approach the horsepower circuit measuring device.
Baek So-rin, who was standing next to me, recognized me.
“Huh? Aren’t you Superman Kim Jeonsa?”
“Would you like to know me?”
“Yes. I was so impressed at that time. But······”
Baek So-rin looks at me carefully.
I opened my eyes wide at the sight of the empty space around me and the holy sword and magic gun on my waist.
“You really leveled up? To level 3? You’ve never been certified at level 2!”
“It just so happened.”
“Oh my, oh my······ You are truly amazing. Overcoming a fever······ This is a story straight out of a history book! You were baptized by a saint herself, not a priest or a bishop!”
“I was lucky.”
“You’re lucky! Aren’t you going to establish a country later, Superman? Even Lee Seong-gye was famous for overcoming Shin Yeol and becoming a Superman! So was Lu Bu in Romance of the Three Kingdoms!”
Yes, that was the setting.
That’s what it means to overcome a fever.
Evidence of transcendent will.
Whether it was luck or the protection of another god.
The history of this world has proven that a superhuman who overcomes a fever will inevitably become a high-level superhuman.
“The measuring device is ready! Are you going to measure it right now?”
“Yes, please.”
“You may begin.”
He put his hand on the pillar of light.
The entire pillar shook and rumbled, and the same phenomenon that had occurred with Lee Jae-yeol a moment ago occurred.
The lights danced around, forming a letter board.
[Kim Jeon Sa]
[man]
[22 years old]
[Warrior series]
[Level 3]
[6-circuit]
As expected, level 3.
I pulled out the black salt long as if protesting.
As he spread his wings like a peacock’s tail and swung them around like a black dragon, a roar began to form in all directions.
In particular, the faces of the knights were spectacular.
Black salt was used only by high-ranking clergy at the level of bishop or higher in the old father’s church.
Among the knight commanders, there are those who use their swords with utmost care, but there are few who use them as freely as I do.
Oh Du-sik was left with a look of amazement on his face.
“It is truly great. Don’t you have any intention of changing your mind even now? If you, Superman, join our sect, you may become a general or a general corps commander, or even an apostle. I can tell by looking at that black flame. The grace of your old father is already upon you, Superman.”
Are you crazy?
In just a few years, you’ll be joining that damn church?
My answer is always the same.
“I’m sorry, but I like freedom.”
“Is that so······”
Oh Du-sik is so sorry.
On the other hand, the Paladins look relieved.
Sometimes he secretly strokes my chest and sometimes he looks at me with jealousy and envious eyes.
O Du-sik shook my hand for the last time.
“I must go now. I pray that the blessings and grace of my old father will last forever.”
“Well······I’ll take it as a good thing. Take care.”
Only then does the group of paladins disappear.
As I leave the super tower, Lee Jae-yeol glares at me.
Why is that kid doing that to me?
But it’s not scary at all.
Just as I was about to laugh it off and forget about it, Baek So-rin sent me a worried look.
“Superman. Are you okay?”
“why?”
“That person······”
Baek So-rin looks at Lee Jae-yeol, who is just exiting the revolving door.
“That priest’s father is the president of Ascension Security.”
I told you once.
They say that in this world, the Republic of Korea is tightly controlled by four major powers.
Legion, conglomerate, magic tower, sect.
There are five major conglomerates in here.
Myth, Geum-o, Yuil, Fame, Ascension.
The Seungcheon Group may be the last among the top five conglomerates, but it cannot be ignored.
Especially in this world where wealth and power are extremely concentrated.
“Wow. You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth.”
“Yes······ As you know, Superman, you shouldn’t be disliked by the conglomerates.”
“it’s okay.”
“But, Superman······”
“He’s the son of the CEO of an affiliated company, so he’s not really a conglomerate. He’s not weak enough to be scared of the CEO’s son.”
President of Ascension Security?
So what?
Listening to what the Templars are saying among themselves, it seems like their internal affairs are complicated.
I told you not to let your little brother take what’s yours.
If you think about Seo Woo-jin’s case, you can understand what happened.
There must be an internal inheritance problem.
Even if I were the CEO of Seungcheon Security, I wouldn’t give it to Jae-yeol Lee. Why would the entire family business be taken away?
If necessary, the Seungcheon Group headquarters may be able to exert its influence.
“ha.”
Baek So-rin sighed briefly.
“I envy you, Superman.”
“What is it?”
“Just that. Everything. I wish I was strong like you, Superman.”
Baek So-rin looks a little depressed.
The deer-like eyes overlap with the screen of the smartphone.
Baek So-rin, the girl on screen who always has a confident smile.
There was always a rainbow-colored lettering [SSR] floating above the face.
Was that why?
I ended up blurting out a word impulsively.
“Mr. Baek So-rin. Do you want to become a superhuman?”
“Yes? Of course I want to be. Who doesn’t want to be a superhuman?”
“Then please become my disciple.”
“yes?”
“If Mr. Baek So-rin wishes, I will make Mr. Baek So-rin a superhuman.”
Baek So-rin stares at me intently.
An attitude of obvious distrust.
But I know.
Baek So-rin was not on the character list when Arcane Seoul was released.
In which episode does he appear and what process does he go through to awaken as an SSR warrior series superhuman?
How can I awaken as a superhuman at this point in time?
For example, it is a guaranteed SSR draw ticket.
Is there any reason why I shouldn’t pick this?
Baek So-rin’s eyes.
A myriad of emotions come and go.
Amidst the floating doubts, suspicions and questions, vague hopes, small expectations and feeble trusts flicker as if they will go out.
I faced Baek So-rin with a calm face.
I didn’t say anything useless.
Just show your sincerity with your eyes.
“Hoo!”
After a long silence, Baek So-rin let out a short breath.
“Okay. I’ll do it.”
One of the three commanders of the warrior class.
It was the moment when the Thousand-Year-Old Baek So-Rin came into my hands.
