Chapter 568 – The Conspiracy Begins (1)
On the outside, nothing has changed.
Mirae Group and I were hit by a huge typhoon overnight.
The appearance that everyone saw was the same without a single error.
But things have changed.
That too clearly.
Mirae Group is still the largest conglomerate in Korea.
But they lost their power.
Dantalion’s knowledge that allowed it to expand beyond Korea and into the world.
They no longer get it.
There are two paths given to them.
Either you fail to achieve new developments and are left behind, or you survive by developing technology on your own.
Either way, it would be extremely painful.
The former will be tormented by the sounds of decay from the many enemies around them.
The latter will involve a tremendous amount of time and resource consumption for technological development.
That wasn’t the only thing that changed.
【Future Group signs sponsorship with Twilight Guild.】
【Chairman Lim Cheol-ho of Mirae Group, which joined hands with the Twilight Guild, said, “We will not spare any support.” Reveal.】
【Twilight Guild with wings called capital, how far can it fly?】
The true ruler of Mirae Group has changed.
From Dantalion to me.
Sponsorship was a kind of cover for this.
If their funds suddenly leak into me or the guild, and there isn’t even a decent contract, wouldn’t everyone look at it strangely?
Thanks to this, the name of the Twilight Guild has become hot once again.
As a result, articles causing unnecessary friction poured in.
【Dawn and dusk, is this the beginning of a generational change?】
【The guild name Twilight was a challenge to the Dawn guild?】
【Son Si-woo and Kim Do-jin, about the two giants of Korea】
As I read the article titles, I naturally clicked my tongue.
“Tsk tsk…, Anyway, our country’s reporters are the best at aggro-fighting in the world.”
If they all awaken, our country will be called a tank powerhouse.
“It was something we had expected since the guild was founded, but…, It’s harsher than I thought.”
The guild name is Twilight.
It was truly the perfect name to become prey for reporters.
Because the name of the No. 1 guild in Korea is Dawn.
And the guild leader who leads them is none other than Son Si-wu.
In fact, the name twilight can be interpreted as Kim Do-jin, the newly rising sun, saying to the sun that is already rising, ‘I will drag you down with my hands.’
Thanks to this, the guild was in an uproar.
Beep!
“No, reporter. Our guild name is by no means a declaration of war against the Dawn Guild…”
Beep!
“Yes? Who would win if our guild leader and Hunter Son Si-woo fight? How do I know that?”
The guild office is being flooded with phone calls.
Please resolve any doubts or doubts that are currently being raised.
Isn’t it funny?
They want us to resolve the suspicions created by their own article.
“Why do you ask someone else to clean up your poop when you do it yourself?”
There are literally no flies.
It’s not a threat at all, but it keeps wandering around and annoying people.
“What…, It will fade away sooner or later.”
If you do not add firewood, the fire in the furnace will naturally die out.
The same goes for public interest.
If you do your job silently without any response, your attention will shift to somewhere else.
This world is not boring enough to keep me interested in it.
“Anyway…, I don’t have to worry about money anymore.”
If you need anything, you can just ask Mirae Group.
Now let’s turn our attention elsewhere.
Not outside, but inside.
“Status window.”
A long hologram window appears with a command that seems to have been shouted for the first time in a long time.
[Status Window]
Name: Kim Do-jin
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Height/Weight: 186CM / 88.5KG
[Strength: 101] [Stamina: 101] [Dexterity: 101] [Magic Power: 105]
Trait: Apostle of Greed
Sub-characteristics: [Gluttony], [Brand of Greed], [Dominator’s Domain], [Extreme Body]
[Mutual non-aggression (2022.06.09.~2025.12.31)]
[No disclosure (2022.06.09.~2025.12.31.)]
Strength, stamina, and agility, which were at 99, increased by 2 to 101.
The difference is only 2.
Some might say that that’s the only thing that has gone up, but that’s wrong.
The difference between the two stairs between 99 and 101 is literally the difference between heaven and earth.
If 99 is the human limit, 100, a three-digit number, is another realm.
God’s realm… It’s a bit absurd to say that.
What should I say?
So to speak, is this the first step humans take towards God or something transcendent?
You never know.
When his abilities reach 150 or 200, he may truly become a god or something similar.
What made such a huge difference…, Thanks to its evolved characteristics.
Lightly touch the pole body that is taking up the place where the pole was.
[Theatrical body]
[Grade: SS]
-Through effort and trials, we succeeded in transcending human limitations.
-Quickly overcomes negative conditions affecting the physical body.
-The body’s recovery and durability greatly increases.
-The efficiency of the body increases by 1.5 times.
-The body does not easily collapse even when power exceeds its limits.
-You can grow your body through battles with powerful enemies, transcendent beings, etc.
As I read each long line, I burst out in admiration.
“Wow.”
I’ve already seen it a few times, but it’s surprising every time I see it.
It contains all the beneficial effects that can be applied to the body.
Unless you die or suffer an equivalent injury, you cannot even dream of being unable to recover.
The most surprising thing is at the end of the explanation.
It is no exaggeration to say that the limit has been reached when all abilities have reached 101, but the last sentence implies that there is still room for growth.
Of course, there were completely unexpected conditions attached, but this was no problem.
As expected, in order for me to fully survive, I will have to face and defeat countless strong people.
If you look at it that way, it can’t actually be seen as a condition.
Rather, it feels like more battle victory rewards have been added only to me.
“Is the world smiling at me?”
Now I am starting to lose confidence.
Defeat or die.
But you must not let your guard down.
After suppressing my pride and closing the explanation window for the play delay.
Move your gaze toward the last part of the status window.
“Hmm.”
Two one-sided treaties that were obtained together when the body was robbed.
Prohibition of disclosure and mutual non-aggression.
Damn it, the treaty that that idiot put up to protect himself ends by December 31st of this year.
“It’s not far away.”
The end is finally starting to come into view.
What should I say when I face him properly?
Should I say thank you?
Or should I start with a sharp blow to explain the horror of that time?
I guess I’ll have to think about it carefully from now on.
Slowly get up from the cozy chair.
A window with a clear view of Gangnam.
The magic tower is located a bit far away from the road where all kinds of expensive cars are busy.
“…”
It’s over there.
The last problem that clutters my mind.
“Han Joo-hee.”
One of the prides of Korea along with Son Si-woo.
The idol of all wizards.
And there is a high probability of joining hands with the villain organization ‘Hexagram’…, Renegade.
I was always curious, and I still am.
Why did she close the door to her heart and push away me, who was her husband?
Also, why did she join the hands of an unknown organization like Hexagram?
What does she truly want?
Even though her heart has left, I can’t suppress my curiosity as I focus on her.
You can’t stop paying attention at all.
Anyway, she is Seoyeon’s mother.
Depending on what steps she takes…, Because she will have a big influence on Seo-yeon as well.
“Is there still something I want?”
I want to ask.
Wealth, honor, power.
Even though you have everything, what do you want and what do you want?
How difficult was it to get hold of, so they ended up joining hands with an organization that had no foundation?
I turn my back and take out a book that was stored in the drawer of my office desk.
It was charred here and there, and parts of the cover and inside were burned away.
“The Book of Dantalion…”
A treasure of treasures, said to be able to see the past, present, and future.
Just once before a foolish mistake burns the book.
I opened the complete Book of Dantalion.
I didn’t want to know anything about it, but it was what I wanted to know the most.
It is unclear which category to put between past, present, and future.
There was only one line of sentence written that did not fit in with the large book at all.
What is the content?
“The person Han Joo-hee loves most in the world is Son Si-woo… ?”
Surprisingly, it was written like that without a single mistake.
And I still don’t understand what this means.
