Ruler of the Game 895

Chapter 895 – Alliance

Perhaps because of the thought of having made a mark on one of Eden’s most powerful figures, Go Min-seok’s eyes sparkled, and he looked delighted.

‘Hmm? Wasn’t he simply ambitious?’

After reading Go Min-seok’s emotions, Seong-il is puzzled as he realizes that he is not approaching him to get closer to the center of power, but is happy with the recent praise because he truly respects him.

『He is a hunter from Eden Academy.』

‘What does that matter?’

『The founder of Eden Academy is the owner, right? And all the early Eden Academy hunters, including Ko Min-seok, were rescued by the owner from a Korean university. I don’t think it’s strange for them to be in awe of their master.』

‘Aha!’

Seong-il smiles bitterly when he realizes why the hunters at Eden Academy are especially looking at him with envious eyes.

‘I wonder what their facial expressions will be like when they find out that a few years ago, I was a hunter at a level worse than their claws.’

At that time, Seongil was lost in frivolous thoughts for a very short period of time. Hunter Noh Ji-hyun, head of the Artificial Awakening Hunter Association, Eden Hunter’s rival, grits his teeth and expresses his opinion to Seong-il as if he cannot lose.

“Hunter Go Chang-seok’s opinion is certainly valid, but there are some shortcomings!”

“… What?”

In the beginning, the hunters of Eden Academy dismissed the artificial awakening hunter group as a group of second-class hunters who were far inferior to themselves.

Unless, in fact, your primary abilities are telekinesis and physical augmentation. As existing superpowers can very easily acquire telekinesis and martial arts through procedures, they naturally possessed superior abilities than artificial awakening hunters who awakened superpowers purely through procedures in a no-base state.

However, for a while they were proud of their superior abilities. Recently, the Eden Academy Hunters were feeling a serious sense of crisis after realizing that the Awakened Hunters had a tremendous weapon that they did not have. It’s just numbering.

Naturally, the group of natural psychics, who have the characteristic of awakening at the rate of 1 in 100,000 people, was bound to be absolutely smaller than those with psychic powers who freely awaken through artificial procedures. Therefore, even though their abilities were superior to those of artificially awakened superpowers, they were pushed out of their overwhelming numbers and faced a significant threat to their current position.

‘It’s a good thing for me.’

It would be a problem if the conflict became extreme, but the two groups were currently maintaining an exquisite balance of power, so Seong-il was not too worried about the conflict situation.

‘I have Aruril and the Earth Mother. Their strength is enough to handle it.’

In addition, crucially, there was a group of priests who could mediate the conflict if the conflict between the two groups intensified, and an ‘absolute’ Earth Mother Goddess who could suppress it with authority, so Seong-il was very confident that the two groups of superpowers would never cross the line. I knew it.

‘Even priests have the power to identify believers with ungodly hearts. So there is a high possibility that the problem will not become more serious.’

Therefore, Seong-il does not seem particularly nervous even though he sees Eden secretly being divided right before his eyes. However, since he didn’t want his precious time to be wasted due to an emotional fight, he waved his hand to stop the argument.

“Don’t be arrogant and fight in front of me. Noh Ji-hyun continues the story.”

“Ah, yes.”

When Eden’s leader gives them a harsh warning, the two appear obedient, as if they had never raised their voices before.

“I think it would be a serious waste of time to focus all of Eden’s power only on the big battle that will take place three days later.”

“Ugh…!!”

As the leader of the rival group belittles his opinion, Go Min-seok’s expression begins to rot. However, since the seeker was listening to Noh Ji-hyun’s opinion with an expression of interest, he could only grit his teeth and say nothing.

“Why do you think so?”

“It is because of the new power that the Seeker received from the Earth Mother.”

Rather than meaninglessly wasting time in reality, Noh Ji-hyun argues that he should actively use his newly acquired powers to destroy as many dungeons as possible before the big battle.

“Still… I don’t know how powerful the new power, Dungeon Portal, is, as there are no records of its use in actual combat. However, if what is written in the specifications is true, we will exist on Earth for a short period of three days. You will be able to destroy almost any dungeon you play.”

‘That certainly seems to be the case.’

In the past, it would have been impossible, but Seong-il has now received a fraudulent power called ‘Dungeon Portal’ from the game master. By summoning a portal that can infiltrate a dungeon within a 1000 km radius of where Seongil currently exists, you can create a route to safely attack the dungeon. Noh Ji-hyun argued that the seeds of the dungeon should be dried for three days, taking advantage of the fact that bases had now been established around the world.

“That can’t be said!”

Go Min-seok strongly opposes Noh Ji-hyun’s opinion. He was concerned that if a large-scale offensive was launched before the great battle, the Transcendental Church would be put on extreme alert.

‘It’s not wrong, but…’

Although he can understand Go Min-seok’s opinion, Seong-il feels his heart is drawn to Noh Ji-hyun’s opinion. Of course, the reason is that the ‘ascension’ of the Transcendental Church is not far away.

Because of this, Seong-il decides that he must wipe out the dungeon as soon as possible, even if the Transcendental Church may wake up some of his compatriots who have fallen into dimensional hibernation and send them in large numbers as security forces. And after seeing Seong-il’s reaction, Noh Ji-hyun again expresses the validity of his opinion as if he had been waiting.

“It would be better if they were on guard! That would reduce the pressure on the North Pole!”

“Nonsense! If those in dimensional hibernation wake up, the instantaneous pressure will increase!”

The argument between the two group leaders slowly begins to devolve into an emotional argument. In the meantime, the good news is that the two people are still fighting based on their own logic. The point was that the line was not crossed.

“Stop.”

Seong-il lightly waves his hand and projects intangible power to the two people. As the bloody triple fusion power that does not match the light hand gestures hits them, the faces of Ko Min-seok and Noh Ji-hyun, who are hit directly by the force, harden.

“I make the decision. Don’t argue needlessly. Who told you to arrogantly argue in front of the executives?”

“Sin… I’m sorry.”

As the seeker issued a cold warning, the two hunters’ complexions turned pale. Seong-il, who lightly summarized the disturbance, announced to the Eden Council that the grand strategy would first follow Go Min-seok’s opinion, but that separately, a large-scale dungeon suppression would be carried out according to Noh Ji-hyeon’s opinion for the remaining three days.

“However, if you come up with a useful plan after today’s meeting, don’t hesitate and report it. I will listen at any time. You can change your strategy if you like.”

“Okay!”

Seong-il even shows the skill of a generous leader. He then declares that if there is no useful plan within a month, the dungeon raid will proceed as scheduled and dissolves the council.

‘Phew… I think I’ve finished my work. Should I go see Eunwol?’

As North American people are being recruited quite smoothly, and hunters are also growing ten times faster, Seong-il decides to enjoy his vacation until the dungeon is destroyed. Thinking like that, Seong-il quickly moves to the martial arts world to see Eun-wol first.

“Huh… It’s been a while since I’ve been here.”

A view of the martial arts world that I am visiting for the first time in almost a year. Seong-il trudges out of the scroll-shaped pineapple house and contacts Edward.

“Oh! Master, are you here?』

Edward promptly responds to Seong-il’s communication request. Fortunately, as Seong-il had predicted, Eun-wol and Edward seemed to be living well in the world of laughter and martial arts without any particular problems.

“What about Eunwol?”

『The leader is nominally practicing ‘closed’ training.』

Edward tells that Eunwol prepared to give birth to Seongil’s child under the pretense of training to protect herself from any remnants of the blood cult that might remain.

“Did the kids trust you?”

“Yes. It wasn’t just that he closed down.』

Edward explains that Eunwol used telekinesis and magic through magical imprinting received in Eden in front of the believers in order to give them absolute faith.

『Thanks to that, it was easy to make believers believe.』

“Well… I would have shed tears and shouted, “I believe you!” When I saw the young leader using telekinesis to cast an empty spell or floating in the air.”

Seong-il had a trivial talk with Edward. Before he knows it, he arrives in front of the ‘palace’ where Eunwol is closing down with a small group of maids.
