## Chapter 177 – 177. God’S Atlantis
177. God’s Atlantis
Kang Myungjin returned to the village.
He immediately noticed the change in the village’s atmosphere and realized that I had become the ruler of District 406. It was impossible not to notice, with the villagers watching my every move and calling me “Ruler.”
“You’ve become the ruler of District 406? How…?”
Kang Myungjin’s surprised expression was a sight to behold. In his common sense, it was impossible for me, a newbie who had just arrived in Atlantis, to defeat the False Adversary of the Sun.
“I got lucky. I obtained an item called the Aegis Amulet from a special store.”
I roughly explained the situation to Kang Myungjin. If I glossed over it here, he would surely become suspicious.
Of course, I didn’t explain everything to him. I left out the oath on the River Styx and said that I defeated him using the Aegis Amulet.
Kang Myungjin listened to my words and fell into thought for a moment.
“Did you accomplish your goal, Mr. Kang Myungjin?”
“Yes. Things went well.”
“Isn’t that spear on your back Lu Bu’s spear?”
On Kang Myungjin’s back was the halberd that Lu Bu used to wield.
“I was able to defeat Lu Bu by using the terrain to my advantage.”
“Impressive.”
Things were going according to the original story.
I glanced at his pocket. It was a little bulged out.
‘He successfully obtained the dragon egg.’
The reason Kang Myungjin came here was because of the hidden area in District 406. He must have obtained the Azure Dragon’s egg from this hidden area.
If I wanted to, I could have snatched the Azure Dragon’s egg faster than Kang Myungjin. But I didn’t.
‘It would be a pain in the ass for me to hatch the Azure Dragon’s egg, but Kang Myungjin, as a Dragon Knight, can hatch it more easily and quickly.’
Due to Kang Myungjin’s unique trait, Dragon Soul (A), he possesses the nature of a dragon.
‘And even if the egg hatched, the dragon wouldn’t follow me.’
The dragon would follow Kang Myungjin because he is a Dragon Knight.
‘And raising a pet is also a hassle.’
A newly born young dragon is of no help until it grows up. I didn’t want to take care of a young dragon.
“Let’s go back soon. The sun must be starting to rise in the First District, the Church of Beginnings.”
I nodded at Kang Myungjin’s words.
Although I was the ruler of District 406, I had no intention of doing anything. There was no merit in it. Moreover, District 406 was isolated from the outside world because all the surrounding districts were uncaptured.
“Yes. Let’s go back.”
“…Mr. Sung Yoojin, do you have any intention of joining a legion?”
At Kang Myungjin’s question, I smiled inwardly.
From Kang Myungjin’s perspective, I was an irregular. I was a person who didn’t exist in his knowledge. He would be wary of me, and I would feel uncomfortable. He might have questions about my identity.
At the same time, I had outstanding skills. For Kang Myungjin, who was trying to create his own legion, I would seem like a talent he would definitely want to recruit.
‘Kang Myungjin is trying to create a legion to utilize the information he has. Gathering talent is a natural part of that process.’
My external unique trait is bartering. The ability to bring modern items. Depending on how it’s used, I could make a lot of money. Most of the exiles are modern people, and they would have a longing for the modern world.
And my skills and the immense divine seat of the Master of the Heavens.
Any legion would covet me.
‘It’s my goal to join Kang Myungjin’s legion… but I can’t accept right away. I need to play hard to get here.’
I pretended to be in thought and answered.
“I don’t know. I don’t know much about legions yet.”
“I see. If you don’t mind, would you like to create a legion with me?”
“…Are you trying to create a legion, Mr. Kang Myungjin? It wouldn’t be easy to run a legion…”
In this world, anyone can create a legion. If people gather and give a name to a group, that’s a legion. However, a real legion that people recognize is a group with a certain level of military power.
“Wouldn’t it be better to join a famous legion? With your skills, any legion would welcome you.”
“It’s true that it’s safer to join a famous legion. You’ll grow smoothly as they tell you. But there’s a clear limit to that growth. You can’t become the best by growing safely under protection. Don’t you want to be the best, Mr. Sung Yoojin?”
“……It’s hard to answer right now. Please give me some time to think.”
“As soon as possible, but no later than the end of the education at the Church of Beginnings.”
“Yes. I will.”
Kang Myungjin and I returned to the Church of Beginnings.
***
I was facing Joo Seo-hyun in an empty lot a little away from the Church of Beginnings. We each had our weapons.
Today was a rest day without education, and Joo Seo-hyun had challenged me to a duel this morning. I accepted the duel. I had told her that I would fight her once a week.
Joo Seo-hyun was stiff, as if she was nervous. On the other hand, I was relaxed.
‘There’s no way I can lose to Joo Seo-hyun now.’
Not only was my swordsmanship superior, but the difference in stats was also overwhelming. Even if I was a little careless, it didn’t seem like I would lose to Joo Seo-hyun.
“You were the one who challenged me first. Are you not going to do it?”
“……Shut up.”
My provocation must have been stimulating, as Joo Seo-hyun, who had been stiff, began to move.
Her movement speed was fast. She had used her acceleration ability from the start.
‘Well, it’s a decent speed for me now.’
I raised the Hwaryeon Flying Blades and easily blocked Joo Seo-hyun’s attack. Joo Seo-hyun gritted her teeth and launched attacks at me.
‘Left, right, then left again.’
Since I was overwhelmingly better in terms of strength and speed, I could easily block her attacks. If Joo Seo-hyun’s swordsmanship was outstanding, it might be different, but she had only been in Atlantis for a week. She didn’t have time to hone her swordsmanship.
My leg hooked her ankle. Joo Seo-hyun’s body tilted. I pulled her body into my arms.
“I think I won?”
“Ugh…”
I grabbed one of Joo Seo-hyun’s ample breasts with my left hand. It was a great feeling every time I touched it.
“…No. Not yet! It’s not over yet!”
“What are you talking about? It’s over.”
“……Time for revenge.”
Joo Seo-hyun pushed me away forcefully.
My body was pushed back. I frowned.
‘What is it? There’s no way Joo Seo-hyun’s strength is this strong?’
Black energy was emanating from Joo Seo-hyun’s body, who had created some distance between us.
Something belatedly came to mind.
Time for revenge.
It was a skill written in the setting book.
‘Could it be that Joo Seo-hyun made a formal contract with the divine seat, ‘Black Revenge,’ and chose the class of Avenger?!’
It wasn’t the class and divine seat that Joo Seo-hyun had in the original story.
‘It changed because of me.’
「The Mark of Revenge placed on you is activated.」
Mark of Revenge. It was a skill linked to Time for Revenge. If the Mark of Revenge was placed on a target, you could roughly know the direction of the target.
‘I know that you need blood to use the Mark of Revenge on a target… Ah. Was it then?’
It was when I kissed Joo Seo-hyun last time. At that time, Joo Seo-hyun bit my lip and drew blood.
「You cannot escape while Time for Revenge is activated.」
I couldn’t move more than a certain distance away from Joo Seo-hyun until Time for Revenge ended.
“Sung Yoojin! Die!!”
Joo Seo-hyun rushed towards me. It was a speed that couldn’t be compared to before.
‘If I’m careless, I might actually lose?’
That was only if I was careless.
I used a split second to quickly move behind Joo Seo-hyun. I grabbed her nape with my left hand and threw her to the side. Joo Seo-hyun rolled on the ground a few times before getting up.
‘Her durability has improved as her stats have increased. …Hmm.’
An idea flashed through my mind.
‘Change status window.’
「Changing the status window.」
I changed the status window from Brainwave to Heavenly Demon.
Joo Seo-hyun’s movements, who was running towards me with swords in both hands, slowed down.
“…What did you do?!”
I grinned. I just tried it out on a whim, but I didn’t expect it to work.
“There’s no reason for me to be kind to you.”
I approached Joo Seo-hyun and swung my fist towards her abdomen. Joo Seo-hyun tried to block my fist with her wrist. I could have pierced my fist past her wrist, but I didn’t. To be precise, there was no need to.
Heavenly Demon Divine Art – Silent Void.
My fist touched her wrist with a thud. When Joo Seo-hyun looked at me with a puzzled expression, her body flew backward a beat later.
“Cough. Cough.”
Joo Seo-hyun coughed and tried to get up by placing her hands on the ground. However, she couldn’t get up easily and kept falling back down.
‘I did control my strength… was it too strong?’
I didn’t have much experience using the Heavenly Demon Divine Art. Especially in the case of Silent Void, it was the first time I had used the technique.
I looked at Joo Seo-hyun, who was even spitting out blood, and changed the status window.
「Changing the status window.」
「The Mark of Revenge placed on you is activated.」
「You cannot escape while Time for Revenge is activated.」
As the effects of Time for Revenge were activated again, Joo Seo-hyun, whose complexion had improved, got up. She was empty-handed. Her sword had fallen to the ground when she flew away earlier.
Joo Seo-hyun, not giving up, clenched her fists and approached me.
I blocked her right fist with my left hand and pointed the blade at her neck. Joo Seo-hyun flinched.
“I won. Do you admit it?”
Grind.
Joo Seo-hyun glared at me with tearful eyes and gritted her teeth.
Soon, the strength in Joo Seo-hyun’s fist disappeared.
“…I lost today… but next time… next time, I’ll really kill you…!”
“I wonder. Is that possible?”
I smiled at Joo Seo-hyun’s face. She was a mess from the battle, but since her original beauty was so outstanding, she was still pretty.
“Since you lost, you have to pay the price.”
“…What? Price?”
“Why are you acting like this? You tried to kill me. Are you just going to let it go?”
“……Are you going to cut off one of my arms?”
“You know it, but you’re pretending not to.”
I took off her top and pulled down her jeans. Above, there was a shabby white bra covering her F-cup breasts, and below, there was the steel chastity belt that I had personally put on her.
I used her top to tie her hands behind her back. As her arms went behind her back, her large breasts were naturally emphasized.
“……Kuh.”
Joo Seo-hyun blushed and turned her gaze away. It wasn’t the first time, but her expression of humiliation was her charm.
“The price you pay is and always will be the same. Right?”
“……”
Joo Seo-hyun bit her lower lip.
「The Master of the Heavens nods if it is the right thing to say.」
「Black Revenge glares at the Master of the Heavens.」
「The Master of the Heavens looks away.」
「Black Revenge warns you.」
I paused. I knew the identity of Black Revenge.
‘In this world, she was almost raped by Zeus and ran away. That’s why she doesn’t have a good relationship with Zeus.’
There is also a theory that she is Zeus’s daughter. Zeus is a messed up bastard who even rapes his own daughter.
‘Tsk tsk. I shouldn’t become a guy like Zeus.’
I moved my hand again.
Black Revenge’s warning? All she can do is warn me with words. Divine seats are basically forbidden from interfering in the affairs of exiles. She can interfere through AP like last time, but she will surely be sanctioned by the system.
The Master of the Heavens, who removed the curse by sending down the moon’s flower and lightning that cursed me last time, would have been sanctioned by the system. The Master of the Heavens would have received a relatively light sanction.
‘I’ll have to eat Black Revenge later too. Hehehe.’
Now is the time to focus on Joo Seo-hyun.
I took off the bra covering Joo Seo-hyun’s chest and threw it on the floor.
“The bra that the Baekgyeol Heavenly Balance Society provided? You’re wearing something so cheap. Tell me in the future and don’t wear something like this.”
“It’s none of your business. If you’re going to do it, do it quickly and finish it!”
“I can’t guarantee that I can finish it quickly. As you know, I’m kind of amazing?”
I reached out and fondled Joo Seo-hyun’s breasts. I carefully caressed her large nipples and areolas. Her pink nipples began to harden.
“Oh. It looks like you were expecting it, seeing how your nipples are getting hard right away?”
“It’s because of the cold!”
“Yeah. Yeah.”
I nodded vaguely.
“You fought me and lost. And this is the price of defeat. So respond properly. Got it?”
I brought my lips to Joo Seo-hyun’s lips.
