Tomb Raider King

370. Here I am (1)

Secondly, secondly.

A dark and cramped office.

[Special Excavation Division]

Joo-heon opened his eyes to unfamiliar office views.

Inside the office was an enormous pile of books that made the library glow.

And there's not enough material in the bookshelves. There was also a view that was very familiar to me, such as drawing drawings and how to attack the blackboard.

And the only thing that's filling up that empty office is ticking clocks.

Finally, when the Angelic Relic Clock announced 7: 00 p.m., he hurriedly got up.

“ ……! ”

The sofa inside the office was where he woke up. And that couch is also a familiar relic chair.

He hurriedly put his hand in his pocket. Cell phone was in the suit's pocket.

When he quickly examined the contents, he narrowed his glances.

‘I see.'

It was clear: neither the date, nor the text records given or received were all current.

‘This is where I lived. ’

So it was in the past, before you came back. Of course, if it were the same, the future would have disappeared by changing the past....

‘Maybe it's like a separate timeline. ’

For example, there are two timelines.

So the timeline before regression and the timeline after regression.

In other words, the timeline by which you became Majestic. And apart from that, the time line for his future to die. Like that.

‘Well, it must be the power of the artifact, so I thought about it. ’

Anyway, the important thing is to return to the world before regression. By the time I was maybe 30.

Of course, I knew it was then without having to check the date or records.

What's the matter with you?

‘You look fantastic. ’

Juheon smiles, looking at the mirror on the wall. My reflection on the mirror was so overwhelming that I couldn't even see it.

Around the early 30s.

He's a reasonable worker. TKBM badge on his neck.

Dark circles that look like they'll go all the way down to the cheeks under your eyes. A pale face without blood. Rough skin, messy hair.

It could be mistaken for a dead body if you fall asleep. It looked familiar to me when I was stabbed with artifact syndrome.

It wasn't just that.

“Huff...! ”

The cold pain that I felt in my heart caused me to groan.

Tsk.

He clenched his fist while biting his lips because of the pain he had experienced in a long time. Breathing was shorter, and breathing was very difficult. And most of all, a broken headache.

‘Damn it.'

Of course, it was still a time to endure the medication. At the time of their death, the end of artifact syndrome in their mid-30s was impossible to live normally.

But the pain was substantial.

He quickly searched his pockets while making an impression.

“The medicine must be...! ”

There had to be. A medicine that will last roughly half a day.

The disposable medicine that the old man gave me as a reward.

However, he took out the medicine and filled his tongue.

It's because the drugstore was empty. In the end, Zhou Zhen hurled insults at the subordinate.

‘Dammit, even if I did send it, why now...! ’

It was time for Ju Heon to get a little teeth.

‘! ’

Suddenly, it became easier to breathe.

And...

[Immunity Skill is activated.]

[Prevents the penetration of eroding artifact viruses into the body.]

With the usual message, the pain of the dedication began to subside gradually.

The cause of artifact syndrome is come. The aura of the artifact was a disease that caused extreme pain and complications when it penetrated the human body.

That's why the resistance skill against Aura was triggered and caused more pain.

Is that all?

[Activates additional buff ability of SS grade immunity skill.]

[Additional effects give you a slight restorative effect.]

Even the mild healing effect of the disease!

Ju-heon sat down with a comfortable face.

‘The pain was gone. ’

He must have recovered to a point where there was no need for medicine.

But it was strange.

‘Crow is on the move. ’

This is a time when we didn't meet the crows.

I summoned the artifact just in case. Magistrate's treasures, as well as the contracted artifacts, had to be checked.

But...

[Artifacts cannot come out because of the invisible power.]

[Environmental conditions are not adequate to trigger Majestic powers.]

[You cannot respond to the summons in this environment.]

Well, that's roughly what it means to be irresistible.

You can't summon artifacts here unless you use artifacts that go through dimensions.

‘I'm glad it didn't feel like the contract was terminated. ’

Jooheon raised his mouth to see the contract tattoo on my body.

‘I just need to connect with the raven. ’

I needed useful skills such as message pane and immunity skills.

Still, it's a shame there's no comrade rope that's always been chasing me...

But it was then.

[# $& $# *!]

Did you find me?

“?! ”

He was frightened for a moment.

* * *

He almost fainted when he saw the thread writhing in the footing of my clothes.

No, a knitted cardigan he wears. It is summer, but you are a patient (?) After all, the coolant is also a coolant, but it is also very cold.

So wearing a gray cardigan is not weird at all...!

[$* & # $*!]

This is uncomfortable! I'm uncomfortable!

The seams moved around by myself whining. And at that moment!

Wood Duck!

“?! ”

The thread began to unravel as it moved.

“No, wait...! ”

Rarely embarrassed, he had to watch as the Guardian's thread loosened and collapsed. The cardigan was knitted. So, once the thread is untied, it just snaps!

As the thread unfolded, the cardigan began to evaporate.

Maybe someone in this timeline floated the Guardian himself...!

“…… huh! ”

But he liked it clear that it was just easier to move.

[# $* # & *!]

Relax! Relax!

In fact, I rubbed my head like it was a good rub on the bridge of Juheon.

It was clear.

“I'll give him a ride...! ”

Behavior, voice, speech (?). A voice that is still unrecognizable, but surely a comrade.

But that's why he was so confused.

“What about this guy...! ”

Well, maybe he possessed my cardigan's fur, moved the reliquary... or something like that...

‘What happened? ’

That reminded me of a message.

[Follow me.]

“No, it's possible, isn't it? ”

[Looks like it was sent to me by a former Magistrate.]

“If I could send him away, I wouldn't want him to be... any more useful." ”

I realized that it was not important.

“Anyway, there's a cradle here. ”

The eyes of Zhou Yuen flourished.

It must have been.

The mystical artifacts were trying to send them to a world of nothing, saying they annoyed them. But he twisted the trajectory and flew it here.

And what did he say?

‘I told you to find a cradle here and gather all the treasures. ’

Not only the Great Prison, but the treasure you can't find anywhere else in the world. I don't know why, but maybe that timeline, this timeline, is when the artifact appears.

Recognizing that, he raised his mouth. It was because I thought it would be good for this.

‘Find the cradle here. ’

The mystical artifact was hard to deal with unless it was clearly able to swing them.

And the key cradle to defeating them and becoming the perfect Magistrate.

It was time for him to make his move.

“Seo Ju-heon Excavation Team. Only 10% more support this time? ”

“Yeah, it's really old there. They only use relics. ”

“That's just their level. Hahaha.”

Voices of other teams coming from outside the office. Like he said, their offices were outdated.

‘The other teams would have started at their desks and set everything up as a Class A artifact. ’

The support team was reluctant to take care of the supplies, slow down the process, or ignore them anyway.

It's different.

Knock, knock.

“? ”

A woman barged into my office and said,

“Assistant Director West. Please return the rented artifact from the Special Excavation Team here right away. ”

It was a woman from the support team.

“If you rented it yesterday and still haven't returned it. How does the Special Excavation Team always...? ”

Then he laughed as if he was saying something.

“Return what you borrowed yesterday? The Relic Vault is a basic week. ”

Then he laughed at me with the same look on his face.

“Whatever... You should be thankful to lend this precious artifact to the Special Team. ”

It was then.

Boom!

“Ugh!”

Suddenly, the staff was troubled by the flying artifact dagger. However, he smiled calmly and said.

“What did you just say? I can't hear you. ”

“Yes? Oh, no... there! ”

“I can't hear you. Should I rip your pierced mouth off? ”

The woman was really embarrassed by the appearance of a strange jubilee.

Normally, I'd be angry, but I'd return the trouble if I knew how to walk...!

“Well, not there. I'm sorry, I must have mistaken you...! Sorry!”

Immediately, the servant ran out, and he sighed lightly.

‘Still, I find it amusing to see our department as a favour. ’

I understand.

I had to endure it if I could not cause trouble.

That's why it's time to ignore yourself as a cripple, and to treat yourself like a cripple at work.

I liked it.

This world is going to stay here for a while anyway. It wasn't a big deal to be ignored.

That is why even the current situation has not been greatly ignored.

“Whatever. Let's go out and get some information about the cradle... ”

It was time.

[$* & # *!]

Over here!

Cabinets are where the string of thread grabbed the hand of Jupiter.

He opened his eyes wide.

‘That's my relic locker. ’

As he got closer, an unexpected message came to mind.

[I feel the energy of a powerful artifact.]

[I feel the energy of a cradle.]

His expression brightened.

"Right. I used to put all kinds of artifacts in there. ’

There is a good reason why I sent it on this day and age.

‘Maybe...! ’

That's why he quickly opened the office cabinet.

* * *

Heave-ho!

But...

“Huh?"

There was none.

Second cradle, empty cabinet!

“ ……?! ”

There really wasn't one.

‘What happened? ’

There must be some of his main artifacts here.

In the end, he made a phone call right away.

The opponent is Joon, the last ally who served as a supporter of the cultivation.

“Uh, Joon. You usually clean the office, right? So you haven't seen any of my artifacts in the cabinet? Why is there nothing?

Then the opponent panics and says,

[Don't you remember? The artifacts in the cabinet two days ago...... You said the chief accidentally destroyed them while cleaning them. The core is broken and I can't restore it... That's why the boss said he knew...]

At the same time, he frowned. "Chief" meant "Yu Jae-ha."

And what, accidentally smash it?

You can't restore the core because it's broken?

"You're trying to sell it secretly. ’

The talents of this period remained so. Maybe that's why he was in trouble.

‘Dammit, the cradle might have been in there...! ’

But I endured it.

But you're still a servant. It wouldn't have been sold two days ago. So, for starters, Tyler...

However, this was the time.

Tiering.

[Boss, are you really just going to let him take over?]

He twitched his eyebrows.

‘Yes, but I was patient enough at the time.... ’

But get out of the office and park.

It was time to get in the parked car.

“Are you Seo Ju-heon? ”

Strange men approached, and he frowned.

“Who are you? You guys again. ”

“Never mind. You know him, don't you? He borrowed our money and ran away. ”

“Really? So what? ”

“Well, the guarantor has to pay for it! Warranty Seo Ju-heon!”

He twitched his eyebrows.

Son of a bitch...

It's different.

“Look! I saw what you signed! ”

The documents that the men saw clearly had his signature on them.

On a document he couldn't have signed!

However, he could clearly tell.

[This is a fake signature.]

[I have created and signed your replica.]

“Oh, yeah, cradle. We need to find a cradle.”

Before we do that, let's kill some people and get started.
