## Chapter 308 – 308. God’S Atlantis
“The Tyrant Legion is a legion that resides in our district with due payment. If they did this without reason, I will not forgive them. This is a matter of our Leaves Legion’s reputation.”
In other words, the Tyrant Legion was paying taxes to the Leaves Legion and residing in District 174.
And since the management of a house is also the responsibility of the homeowner, they couldn’t just back down.
If I were in my Heavenly Demon state, I would have just ignored it and run away, but I am not the Heavenly Demon right now.
“I am Seong Yujin, a member of the A-Plan Legion.”
“A-Plan Legion…? Ah, that’s the legion that’s been making a fuss lately. I am Ophelia, the 3rd Squad Leader of the Leaves Legion.”
Ophelia.
I decided to remember that name. I don’t care about the names of men, but it’s a different story for the names of beautiful women.
“It would be easier to understand if you saw this rather than me explaining.”
I took out a crumpled piece of paper from my pocket and threw it to Ophelia. Ophelia cautiously received the paper and carefully unfolded it. Her eyes widened slightly as she checked the contents.
Emerald-like green eyes. They were attractive eyes. There was a slight reaction between my legs.
“This is….”
The paper was, of course, a letter sent by the Tyrant Legion to the A-Plan Legion. A letter saying to hand over the district if they didn’t want to be destroyed.
“It’s a declaration of war that Tyrant sent to our legion. Yes. They literally declared war with a letter.”
“……I see. This isn’t a problem for us to get involved in.”
Since Tyrant declared war first, there was no reason for the Leaves Legion to intervene. Tyrant and Leaves were not exactly allies, and even if they were, they would be reluctant to get involved.
‘They could jump in for the sake of appearances, but… thankfully, Leaves seems to be a relatively moderate legion, judging by how they talk about reputation.’
I hadn’t heard much about the Leaves Legion. The fact that they had no particular characteristics meant that they weren’t a criminal legion.
“Excuse me.”
“No, it’s okay. I apologize for the disturbance. Do you always manage this place, Ms. Ophelia?”
Ophelia nodded readily.
“It’s my job to manage District 174.”
Good. I got some information. Should I come back in my Heavenly Demon state and violate her?
“But what are you going to do with the corpses?”
“Ah. I was thinking of just burning them.”
“Don’t you collect the spoils?”
I was originally planning to collect them, but when I actually tried to, it was incredibly annoying. And I had a schedule after this. It was better to save time.
“I’m a bit busy…. Ah, could you collect the spoils for me? I’ll give you half.”
“Half? You’re being generous. Alright.”
“Then I’ll leave it to you. Please take the spoils to the castle in District 601.”
“Understood.”
I said goodbye and passed by them.
When they were out of sight, I took out a piece of paper from my inventory while walking between the zelkova trees. This was also a letter.
The content was more than three times longer than the letter sent by the Tyrant Legion, but the summary was similar. Hand over the district if you don’t want to be destroyed.
‘Those guys are so stupid.’
A normal person would think that a legion that conquered a district that no one had ever conquered was amazing.
But stupid people think differently.
They conquered District 601? That was a place that no one could even attempt to conquer because of the entry conditions. It was a fluke. What? A legion tried to conquer it a long time ago and was annihilated? That’s because they were weak.
That’s how they think.
‘They’re looking down on the A-Plan Legion because it’s made up of rookies, saying it’s beginner’s luck.’
I took out another letter.
‘The content is pretty much the same… there are too many losers.’
I had to visit two more legions.
I thought I should try to resolve things with words if possible. There was no big reason, I was just tired.
But life doesn’t go the way I want it to.
A few days later, rumors spread that the A-Plan Legion was a merciless and ruthless legion, but I didn’t care.
•••
One of the members of the Leaves Legion watched Seong Yujin’s back as he left and asked Ophelia.
“Is it okay to just let him go like that? He’s not ordinary. It would be better to put a tail on him….”
Ophelia shook her head.
“He’s a man who single-handedly annihilated Tyrant. If we put a tail on him carelessly, things will only get complicated. Leave him alone. There’s no need to make him an enemy.”
“Understood.”
Her subordinates began to dispose of the corpses and collect the spoils. Ophelia watched her subordinates work and thought about Seong Yujin and the A-Plan Legion.
A legion that conquered a district in just two months.
In the old days, it wouldn’t have been a big deal. There were many easy districts that hadn’t been conquered back then. But now, there isn’t a single easy district left. Even if the entry conditions were the problem, figuring that out is also a skill and ability.
‘A promising legion has appeared after a long time. And that man, Seong Yujin, used lightning.’
Ophelia had clearly seen and heard it. The huge lightning that shot up from the ground to the sky and the thunder that was so loud it could burst eardrums.
Thinking about Seong Yujin, who controlled lightning, she unconsciously thought of that man.
‘Anyway, he’s definitely not ordinary. I need to emphasize that when I report to the Master.’
•••
I arrived at District 4, the AP Shop.
District 4, as its name suggests, is a district with shops where you can use AP. The location is right next to Today’s City in District 2.
You can buy special items, potions, and daily necessities with AP, and you can exchange pennies, the currency used in Atlantis. Conversely, it is impossible to exchange pennies for AP.
The exchange rate is 1:100.
1 AP is 100 pennies.
The value of pennies is about 1 million won for 100,000 pennies.
Of course, I didn’t come here to exchange AP for pennies.
‘There are a lot of people.’
People were constantly coming in and out of the shop. No one was blocking the shop or causing trouble. This is because this district is directly managed by the system. Causing trouble here? You’ll be subdued by the system in a second and receive a penalty.
The interesting thing about this shop is that there are many users, but there is no need to wait in line at all. The reason for this can be seen when you actually enter the shop.
*Clink.*
I opened the door of the shop and went inside.
It was a completely different space.
It was a slightly dark room. There was a door leading out on the wall, and a chair and table in the center of the room.
‘The shop is the same for everyone who enters, but they go to different spaces. In a game, you could say that the channels are different.’
I sat down in the chair in front of the table.
「Welcome to the AP Shop.」
「At the AP Shop, you can buy or sell items using AP. Only items with a rank can be sold, and they can only be sold at 30% of the market price.」
「The AP Shop can only be used for 2 hours a day.」
「What do you want?」
At first glance, the shop looks similar to an NPC shop that always sells items in a game, but in reality, the quantity of items is limited.
‘My current AP is….’
「AP Owned: 178,943」
From my perspective, it’s a bit ambiguous, but from the perspective of other rookie exiles, they would be envious to the point of bursting.
I first looked at the potions.
「Top-Grade Recovery Potion – 11,000 AP」
「Remaining Quantity – 2,194,914」
‘I had a feeling, but it’s expensive. It’s better to get top-grade potions from the modern world.’
「Lowest-Grade Recovery Potion – 200 AP」
「Remaining Quantity – 171,241,561」
These are the potions that rookies buy the most.
I don’t use such low-quality items, but they would be a godsend for rookies.
‘I’ll skip the potions and look at the special items since I’m here.’
「Permanent Mana Increase Potion – 100,000 AP」
「This item can only be purchased once.」
「Remaining Quantity – 0」
「There is no stock currently.」
‘…Well, I expected that.’
A potion that increases mana by 1 for a relatively cheap price of 100,000 AP.
It’s a win-win because your stats increase even if you eat it directly, and even if you don’t eat it, you can sell it to others for over 100 million pennies, or over 1 billion won, so everyone is after it.
‘The situation with other stat-increasing potions is the same.’
I looked for other items.
‘Rank D or higher. Price under 100,000 AP. Including skills, traits, equipment, consumables, and materials.’
The information of the items sold at the shop appeared in front of my eyes. I quickly scanned them with my eyes. I only had 2 hours, so there was no time to look at them seriously.
‘Oh. This is good.’
What I found was a skill.
「Lightning Speed – 100,000 AP」
「This item can only be purchased once.」
「Remaining Quantity – 3」
「Lightning Speed
Temporarily transforms the body into lightning to move. Becomes immune to physical attacks.
Type: Skill
Rank: D」
「This skill can only be used if you have a trait related to lightning or if your attribute is lightning.」
It was a skill for me.
‘Physical immunity, huh….’
It can’t be complete physical attack immunity. The rank of this skill is only D. Physical immunity probably only applies to attacks that don’t contain mana. I don’t know what will happen if the rank increases.
‘The rank can be raised slowly. I’ll buy it first!’
「You have purchased Lightning Speed.」
「100,000 AP will be deducted.」
「You have learned a new skill.」
“Lightning Speed!”
I used the skill right away.
My body crackled and turned into lightning. I looked down at my body and shouted.
“I am God Yujin!”
I shouted it because it reminded me of a guy who ate a strange fruit, but it wasn’t fun or anything.
*Zzzzt.*
The transformed body only lasted for 3 seconds. My body returned to normal. There was no pain or anything. Except for the fact that my body felt lighter, I didn’t feel like anything had changed.
I tried to use Lightning Speed again, but it failed.
「This skill cannot be used consecutively.」
After that, I used the skill every 5 seconds, and I found out that it was a skill that could be used roughly every 30 seconds. And it consumes quite a bit of mana.
‘My movement speed increases when I use it. I’ll need to experiment more later, but it’s a useful skill. To get a skill like this for only 100,000 AP…. I’m lucky!’
I could easily guess why such a good skill hadn’t sold out and was still in stock.
The skill condition is that you must have a trait related to lightning. Lightning is a very difficult attribute to obtain compared to other attributes.
‘Then next is….’
My real purpose for coming here.
「District 20 Teleportation Scroll – 57,000 AP」
「Remaining Quantity – 13,209」
Originally, I was going to buy this and then buy a town teleportation scroll with the remaining AP. I would have done that if I didn’t have Lightning Speed. For reference, the AP price of a space teleportation scroll is 54,611 AP.
‘There’s a lot of stock. Well, District 20 isn’t a popular place. It’s a place without monsters.’
The reason I bought this was because of the suspicious request Pesica gave me two weeks ago. A request to come to a specific place in two weeks. That specific place was District 20.
‘It’s a place that’s a week’s journey away from Today’s City in District 2 without stopping.’
I thought I had plenty of time since I had two weeks, but I also had to take care of my identity as the Lightning Severing Master, not just the Heavenly Demon. I couldn’t skip the conquest of the A-Plan Legion’s District 601 because of personal matters.
‘Living two lives is so hard.’
I grumbled inwardly and got up from the chair and went out of the shop.
This was because I couldn’t use the teleportation scroll inside the shop.
In a place where people couldn’t see me, I put on my clown mask and tore the District 20 teleportation scroll.
「You have entered District 20, the Plains of Silence.」
A cold night breeze blew.
I looked up and looked around.
Under the night sky where countless stars were twinkling, a vast plain was spread out. The starlight was so bright that the plain was not dark and was very visible. There were large stones that looked like dolmens scattered throughout the plain.
‘……Where do I have to go?’
The request only said to come to District 20 by 10 PM, but it didn’t specify the exact location.
