Chapter 2030 – 2030. Newtype
I discovered a killer combo to take down the Wolta race.
Enhanced Leap 〉 EMP 〉 Explosive Thunder 〉 Normal Attack.
The key was the EMP. The weaklings would get hit by the EMP, fall to the ground, and be stunned. Even if they weren’t weaklings, they’d have to focus to block the EMP.
The moment they focused on the EMP, I’d wipe them out with Explosive Thunder. Any that remained, I’d finish off with my blade.
After repeating the killer combo about five times, there was no one left in the sky but me. All the Wolta race that were still alive were the ones who had fallen to the ground from the EMP. I went down to the ground and killed them one by one.
「You have killed all 500 Wolta race members!」
「The true invasion begins! Kill as many Wolta race as possible! It is time for humanity’s revenge! For humanity!」
I chuckled and muttered.
“For humanity.”

The Wolta race’s planet, Wolta, was more than half the size of Earth. While Earth had hundreds of countries, Wolta had less than ten. Among these less than ten countries, the most powerful was the ‘Platani Empire.’ It was a nation that could be called the center of the Wolta race’s world.
Emperor Orphos of the Platani Empire sat on a massive throne. He was an emperor who had abandoned his wings and connected his body to the throne to manage the empire. He had lived for over 200 years. And now, he was furiously enraged.
The reason for Emperor Orphos’s anger was the notification window that had appeared before him.
「The erosion phenomenon could not be stopped.」
「Sung Yoo-jin is invading the world.」
「Can’t you even kill one human?」
「You morons.」
「Kill Sung Yoo-jin by any means necessary.」
The angel, the guardian deity of the Wolta race, was disappointed. The disappointment was so palpable that the emperor was enraged.
“Sung Yoo-jin! Where is that bastard?!”
The throne activated.
The throne began to search for information. When the Wolta race reached adulthood, they replaced half of their bodies with machines. It was the law. The other kingdoms were the same. In the first place, all the other kingdoms were subordinate states that had submitted to the empire.
The throne acquired all the information and reported it.
Sung Yoo-jin had fallen on an island nation in the east. And he had spread poison gas, massacring children, adults, and the elderly alike. The poison gas was so potent that even Force awakeners couldn’t last long. The only ones who could withstand it were the Guardians who had contracts with angels and soldiers with gas masks.
-Poison gas has spread in the capital of Tupeng, and 30 million people have died. The death toll continues to rise.
-Poison gas has also spread in the provincial cities of Tupeng. He has the ability to teleport. He can invade the empire at any time using his teleportation ability. The empire’s capital’s absolute defense system is being urgently activated. The possibility of blocking teleportation is 30%.
-The death toll in Tupeng is estimated to be 120 million.
-The land is being contaminated by the poison gas. Refugees are pouring in. Chaos is accelerating.
-The military has been deployed.
-…It’s a trap. Sung Yoo-jin has created a trap with Tupeng’s bombs. The advancing army has been annihilated.
-Sung Yoo-jin’s identified abilities are teleportation and electrical manipulation. The EMP that occurs immediately after teleportation is very threatening. EMP countermeasures are needed.
-Wouldn’t it be enough to equip EMP blocking devices?
-Sung Yoo-jin’s EMP is too strong. The EMP blocking devices are not working properly. You need to protect your body with Force to make it effective.
-We must negotiate with Sung Yoo-jin. He has transcended the human race.
-Our young babies have been killed by him. We must not negotiate. Thorough revenge is needed.
The opinions of his vassals came through the throne. The emperor could see Sung Yoo-jin’s fighting style almost in real-time through the throne. This throne was connected to the people as well as the soldiers. The throne was the Wolta race’s network itself.
The emperor could see Sung Yoo-jin rampaging far away on the island nation. Sung Yoo-jin was chewing on some unknown drug and massacring the Wolta race.
And he dropped a huge bomb on the army that had gathered. Sung Yoo-jin chuckled and disappeared with teleportation.
Immediately after, a light flashed.
From an artificial satellite in the sky, a huge mushroom cloud was seen rising upwards.
A nuclear explosion swept through the army.
-…….
-…….
-…….
Orphos’s vassals were silent. Their shock and fear were felt through the throne. Before they could panic, the emperor used his power to manipulate the throne. He suppressed the people’s fear appropriately and fueled their anger.
“He has no intention of negotiating with us. We must kill him to survive.”
Sung Yoo-jin, who had disappeared, reappeared.
And it was in the southern part of the empire.
Instead of spreading poison gas, he began to drop nuclear bombs.
Mushroom clouds rose one after another in the peaceful empire.
Cities that had developed for decades were disappearing due to the nuclear bombs.
-My hometown! My hometown is burning!
-Your Majesty! Please help us!!
-Aaaaaaaah!
The despair of the people was keenly felt through the throne.
-Nuclear missiles! We must kill him with nuclear missiles too!
“I cannot allow it. He has the ability to teleport. We cannot kill him with nuclear missiles. The damage will be borne entirely by us.”
The enemy was not an army, but one person.
They couldn’t use weapons of mass destruction to kill one person.
“Save the nuclear missiles. I will kill him and then begin the full-scale invasion of the human world. The humans will have to pay the price.”
-Your Majesty! How should we kill him?!
“I am informing all the Guardians around the world. This is an emergency situation where the fate of the world is at stake. Do not refuse my call! Guardians, gather!!”
Papat! Papat! Papat!
The Guardians from all over the world gathered at the emperor’s call. The emperor looked at them and shouted.
“Release the absolute defense system. I will take action myself. I will kill him in the capital of the empire. If it is in the capital where my power directly reaches, I can suppress even nuclear bombs.”
-Oh, Your Majesty!
“He is acting recklessly. It means he already knows our Wolta race’s information. So he will come here soon. Prepare.”

I took out the nuclear bomb I had brought from Earth from my subspace pocket and dropped it.
It wasn’t the first time I’d used a nuclear bomb, but every time I used one, I felt an intense thrill. The thrill of destroying a civilization that had been built up with so much effort in an instant was truly…
I admired the mushroom cloud that was rising and then used Enhanced Leap. I had floated an item called ‘Eye of Observation’ into the sky and was using it like an artificial satellite, so I could use Enhanced Leap to go anywhere in this world.
[You have used Enhanced Leap.]
[100 points have been used.]
Of course, I had to use points depending on the distance. I also gifted nuclear bombs to other cities.
‘Should I head to the imperial capital now?’
I already knew about the Wolta race’s world. I had captured and interrogated Wolta race members who were secretly active on Earth and extracted the information.
‘The emperor is the center and order of this world. If I kill the emperor, they will fall into chaos. The emperor’s throne is the essence of the Wolta race’s entire civilization, containing all their technology and items. If I can take the throne… it’s as good as over.’
The imperial capital.
The largest and most magnificent city in this world. I had already identified it with the Eye of Observation. The conditions for Enhanced Leap were met.
‘I have two nuclear bombs left. I should start by throwing two nuclear bombs to gain the upper hand.’
[You have used Enhanced Leap.]
[100 points have been used.]
As soon as I appeared in the imperial capital, I dropped two nuclear bombs. The nuclear bombs fell to the ground and then suddenly disappeared.
Kwaaaaaaaang! Kwaaaaaaaang!
The nuclear bombs exploded far away from the capital. The nuclear bombs had been forcibly teleported.
I, who was floating in the sky with steel wings, felt uneasy. I immediately took out dozens of drug cigarettes from my subspace pocket and put them in my mouth, and I stuck a drug syringe into my thigh and injected the drug.
More than 2,000 Wolta race members surrounded me. Judging by the Force I felt from them, they were definitely Guardians.
‘…Inside that castle, I can feel a huge Force. Is that the emperor?’
Force was emanating from that huge castle. According to the Wolta race I had captured as a prisoner, the emperor’s throne was the essence of the Wolta race’s civilization, containing all their technology and items.
“You and the humans will surely pay the price.”
“But you guys will die first.”
I let go of the Hwaryeon Blade I was holding in my hand. The Hwaryeon Blade didn’t fall but stood in front of me. I wasn’t using my power to make it float. It was floating in the air with its own power.
“It’s the climax. Squeeze out all your power, Hwaryeon Blade.”
I used Domain.
Starlight burst out from the Hwaryeon Blade and took over the space. At this moment, this place became my space and resonated with me. The laws of this space were only advantageous to me.
The Wolta race’s Guardians flew towards me. They were shouting something, but I didn’t know what it meant. I wasn’t interested either. I just swung the Hwaryeon Blade at them. From below to above. Lightly, without putting in much effort. The result was anything but light.
The Red Lightning created from the Hwaryeon Blade’s blade instantly maximized and soared diagonally from the ground to the sky, wiping out hundreds of enemies.
I swung the blade again. This time, Red Lightning burst out and slashed through the city. Hundreds of Wolta race members disappeared without even screaming.
Even though I had shown an overwhelming difference in power, their fighting spirit was not broken.
I raised my left hand above my head.
Pajijijijijik!
A huge blue lightning gathered above my head and formed a sphere.
‘EMP Shock.’
The sphere exploded.
An electromagnetic pulse, incomparable to anything before, spread in all directions. It instantly neutralized the city’s machines. Even the Guardians who were protecting their bodies with Force were no exception.
I swung the Hwaryeon Blade horizontally.
Thunder Heaven Style (雷天流) Thunder Light (雷光).
A red slash swept through the city. I stared emotionlessly at the collapsing buildings and then moved to the emperor’s castle.
The emperor, sitting on the throne, stretched out both hands towards me and shouted. I guessed it meant something like ‘die.’
A dark mental wave covered me. For a moment, I felt nauseous, but that was it. I calmly approached the emperor.
“Why? Why are you not under my mental control?! I have already confirmed that you do not have any mental defense items on your body!”
He was speaking in Korean, kindly enough.
“You should know. My mind is superior to yours. Was the essence of your ability mental control? Is that how you control the throne?”
“Don’t be ridiculous! I am an emperor who has reigned for 200 years!”
“So what?”
The space distorted for a moment and then returned to normal. Domain was still in use. Space manipulation didn’t work on me. The Hwaryeon Blade was reaching its limit, so I stopped talking and stabbed the emperor’s head with my blade.
“I will not… die like this…! Absolute defense system! Self-destruct…!”
The emperor died.
Beeeep! Beeeeeeep!
A siren-like sound rang out.
I didn’t know what the absolute defense system was, but the Domain instantly contracted.
‘Neutralization? No, it’s suppressing space. I don’t think teleportation will work either.’
I wasn’t particularly nervous. I had Complete Recovery. It didn’t matter if I died once.
‘Not that I’m going to die.’
Greed (貪).
I used another ability of the Hwaryeon Blade.
I copied the ability of the emperor who had just died. I put more force into the blade and stabbed it into the throne. I used the emperor’s ability. I felt connected to the Wolta race all over the world through the throne.
-W-what is this mind?!
-Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
-K-kueaaaaaak!
-Cut off the network! The network is contaminated… Aaaaaaaaaaak!
They were making a fuss just because I connected my mind.
“I command you. Pour all nuclear weapons all over the world. Kill your families, kill your friends, kill yourselves. Perish.”
And so, the Wolta race perished.
