Chapter 728 – Separation
‘Shall we go?’
Seong-il changes his position with the doll through a change of destiny. After that, he orders the doll to change his appearance to Lee Ah-hyun’s, and then brings him back to the place where the party is.
‘Ahyeon returned safely.’
Seeing that Ah-hyeon seems to have entered the inner plane through the pineapple house in the dimension he installed, Seong-il, feeling relieved inside, prepares to leave the place himself as well, showing a calm expression as much as possible.
“…Huh? It’s strange, isn’t it?”
“Yes? Why?”
“No… The signal coming out of Ahyeon’s bracelet is strange. The signal comes out as if she moved to another dimension that can’t be traced?”
“Huh? I don’t have any problems…?”
The doll of the Creator, who has transformed into Ahyeon, shamelessly overlooks the situation with an expression as if she does not know anything about the situation. There was a reason to doubt Lee Ah-hyun’s appearance, but the process of Seong-il covering up Ah-hyun a little while ago was as natural as flowing water, so Min Ye-jin had no idea that the current situation was caused by Seong-il.
“What?! Even though it’s not a situation where the main system of the ark analyzes it… The computing system built into the bracelet is also quite powerful…? It doesn’t make sense that it can’t do dimensional backtracking… Is it broken…?”
‘You really can’t track it?’
Seong-il lets out a sigh of relief when Min Ye-jin’s murmurs give her the answer to what she’s been curious about.
‘Shall we start soon.’
I must have already done everything to the ark. Seong-il, determined to completely break up with them, creates a sinkhole little by little by using the true view of Jeongcheon in the ground deep in the subway, which she grasped through her emotions.
‘I tried to persuade Min Ye-jin, but… There are too many variables.’
In fact, the heads of the Under Hunter Association belonging to the Ark were unexpectedly well-rounded with quite good personalities. Because of this, Seong-il used to show a little interest in embracing them. However, Seong-il gave up on the plan because of the strange anxiety that came every time.
‘The fact that anxiety arises in my heart is more like a sign that tells me that it is openly ominous.’
Seong-il, who now thoroughly believes in the wisdom given by his senses, discards his attachment to Min Ye-jin and focuses only on attempting to manipulate her reality using Jeongcheon Jin-gyeong. Then, sinkholes began to form more rapidly underground.
“…Is something strange?!”
“Hmm? Why?”
Min Ye-jin, like her S-rank hunter, feels the minute vibrations flowing from her floor and shows her body hesitantly and vigilantly. Seeing her like that, Yoo Jun-kyung also asks Min Ye-jin with a slightly nervous expression, whether he felt something wrong with her.
“Check the detector. Psionic waves are manifesting deep underground.”
“Uh?”
At Min Ye-jin’s words, Yoo Jun-kyung quickly looks at the small monitor built into the bracelet and checks the situation as she said.
“Damn it… What kind of guy’s repercussions… Did the manager even wake up?”
“Maybe so. First of all, prepare for an emergency return.”
Just like veterans, the two quickly figured out that the situation was dire and tried to force their way back. Seong-il spreads an intense mist around the area using the bright sky.
“Damn it!! What is this again!!”
When the fog created by the intense psionics they have never seen before fills the subway, Min Ye-jin and Yoo Jun-kyung realize that a serious incident has occurred and try to make themselves and Seong-il’s party return quickly.
‘No doubt.’
However, Seong-il, who wanted a natural separation from the Ark, strongly ordered the nanomachines to delay the forced return as much as possible, as he had prepared in advance.
‘It’s eaten!’
As expected by the doctors in the pocket girls world, when Seong-il’s advanced nanomachines succeed in temporarily paralyzing the forced return of the bracelet, Seong-il lets out a strong cheer inwardly. In the meantime, he acts as if his bracelet is broken and yells at Min Ye-jin.
“Damn it!! My and Ahyeon’s return device isn’t working?!”
“What!?”
Min Ye-jin and Yu Jun-kyung look puzzled when Seong-il and Ah-hyeon’s bracelets do not emit any light, unlike the two of them, who try to make an emergency return by emitting blue light.
Kururureung!!!
In the meantime, the floor starts to collapse at the right timing. The sinkhole created by Seong-il through manipulation of reality collapses the floor as violently as a handmade earthquake.
“Han Seong-il!!”
As Seong-il falls into the sinkhole, the two men and women try to catch him using their abilities. However, for some reason, not only he but also Jun-Kyung Yoo feels that his psychic powers aren’t manifesting near Seong-il, so he looks flustered.
“What? Why supernatural powers!? Kids!! You guys can use telekinesis or gravitational fields right away!”
Min Ye-jin yells at Seong-il in a tone of absurdity when she uses all her superpowers so skillfully when fighting the chairman not long ago, and then she is a little embarrassed while falling.
“You’re the guy who cleared a B-level dungeon solo, right?! Does it make sense to panic in a situation like this?”
“I’m not using my abilities!!”
“What? What nonsense is that…”
She and Yoo Jun-kyung are using their abilities well, but when Seong-il hesitates to use the ability while clinging to a cliff, saying strange nonsense, Yoo Jun-kyung asks Seong-il with a puzzled and dumbfounded expression.
“You scumbags. I finally found you.”
“!!!”
Meanwhile, a chilling voice comes from deep in the sinkhole floor. Min Ye-jin looked down at the floor at the appearance of that voice, as if she had heard it somewhere. There, she saw Jo Woo-yeong, the manager of the Transcendental Church, who she had fucked in the past, glaring at her group with a cool expression on her face.
“How!? University administrators won’t leave the area for more than two hours?”
“Oh, was there a pattern of behavior like that?”
When a situation arises, Min Ye-jin’s appearance pops out information one by one like an onion, and Seong-il’s eyes twinkle at the moment while performing her performance.
“Do you worms dare to judge our actions?”
After those words, an intense wave of energy begins to emanate from Wooyoung Cho’s fingertips, which are made of light. A bloody black psionic attack that looks terrifying just by looking at it. Her black hair is a strength she has never seen before, so Min Ye-jin grits her teeth and yells at her Seong-il.
“Quickly! Hands!!”
“You’re cheeky.”
As if she is right in front of her, but as if criticizing her for not caring about her, a bloody black salma gusts out towards Min Ye-jin from Jo Woo-young’s fantasy made of a bright scene.
“!!!”
Although Jo Woo-yeong’s vision was fake, the power of the black salma field emanating from her vision was real, made by Seong-il through Jeongcheon Jin-gyeong, so she was frightened by the power and unfolded her defense field.
‘No way…!!’
To make the situation as realistic as possible, Seong-il uses her reality manipulation forcefully to project intangible power into her defense field that Min Ye-jin wants to use. The intangible powers such as telekinesis, the power of time, and emotion quickly neutralized Min Ye-jin’s defenses, and thanks to that, Min Ye-jin is hit by her attack as if it were brushed by her black flesh demon.
“Kyaaaaa!!”
Even though the tip of her shoulder touched her very slightly, her crippled body quickly rotted away. A scream mixed with pain flowed from Min Ye-jin’s mouth. Fortunately for her misfortune, her holy days did not intend to kill her and controlled her attacks, so the power of her black flesh did not spread to her body and dissipated midway through her.
“Min Ye-jin!! We have to go!!”
When the evil black power as well as the intense psionic fog paralyzes machines and psychic powers, Yoo Jun-kyung gritches his teeth and urges Min Ye-jin to retreat. In order to reinforce his opinion, Seongil used flames, thunderbolts, and cold spells. He mercilessly sprays the spear of elements made with all kinds of power on the two men and women, threatening them.
“Quaaaaagh!!”
In the midst of this, Seong-il wraps illusions around himself and the fake Lee Ah-hyun, creating a situation as if he was fatally wounded by the manager, and falls down the cliff. Seeing him like that, Yoo Jun-kyung tries to approach Seong-il in an urgent manner.
“Han Seong-il!!”
“How dare you do something so arrogant in front of me?”
Suddenly, the manager approaching him calls out to Yoo Jun-kyung in a cool voice. As the man approaching in a hazy state in the fog spreads ominous black psionic energy around him, Min Ye-jin and Yoo Jun-kyung finally try to make an emergency return to the ark as if they can’t help it.
“You bastard!! I will definitely kill you!!”
“Oh. I’m looking forward to it. Come visit me with your wormy fellows. I’ll be happy to greet you.”
Unlike the manager she usually faced, Min Ye-jin, who was unusually talkative, cursed inwardly, saying that he was a bastard with a really bad taste, and then ran away from the area using an emergency escape. And Yoo Jun-kyung, who also disappears into the dimensional rift following her.
‘I’m gone.’
Fortunately, when his party acted according to his thoughts, Seong-il, who had been acting as if he had fallen to the floor, quickly pours a mana potion into his mouth and restores his mana.
‘Sheesh… Even nanomachines have reached their limits.’
When the nanomachines, which had read the intense psionics emitted from the bracelet, warned that if they continued to hold out here, they might be forcibly dragged to the ark sooner or later, Seong-il, who became desperate, quickly recovered his internal energy and then used the Jeongcheonjingyeong to thoroughly inspect the site.
