‘I'm worried about how my parents are doing in this situation.... ’

I arrived at my destination after about a five-minute flight thinking like that.

Tak.

Yoon-suk folded his wings and sat on the roof of the building.

Either they didn't expect to arrive this early, or it took Ashton longer than expected to report to the top.

There was no one on the roof.

Huff.

I turned the door hook, but it was locked.

If you want to break it down, this is the door. It's no big deal.

Yoon-suk took off his Avatar and waited for a while because there was no reason to rush.

About three minutes later, the rooftop door opened.

“Choi, are you a challenger for Yoon-suk Choi? ”

However, when he saw Yoon-suk standing at the door, he was furious and led Yoon-suk into the building.

“Can you stay here for a while? Everyone will be here soon. ”

A meeting room that will accommodate a hundred people.

Yoon-suk asked for a smartphone charger, and he gave me the extra battery from his arms, and the man left the meeting room like he was running away.

I thought it would be normal to leave alone like this....

Yoon-suk didn't say much.

The man who was acting as a guide was afraid to be in the same room with himself.

If he had heard about what he did, it would be natural for ordinary people to do that.

‘Let's contact my parents first. ’

Yoon Seok, who plugged in the charger and turned on his smartphone, called his father via a messenger app.

After a long series of beeps, my father answered the phone.

— Is that Yoon-suk?

“Yes, Father. It's me."

Where are you right now? You weren't in England, were you? I know how worried you were! Why haven't you contacted me before?

I wonder if he's angry. Or are they worried?

Probably both.

The world looked like this, but I understood my heart because my only son couldn't contact me.

After that, Yoon-suk told me that he had only found out about the news later because he was in a foreign country.

And he said he couldn't get a plane ticket right now, so he couldn't go back.

After talking about each other's situation, Yoon-suk finished the phone call with an excuse for data.

I sent you money. You want me to check? ’

Soon Yoon-suk opened a bank account according to his father's last words.

And my mouth was blown open.

‘How many zeros……. ’

A billion units were stamped on the account.

Probably part of the money he paid for it.

Now, Yoon-suk felt a strange regret about what money would be worth.

Do I have to say it feels like I'm back?

Originally, Yoon-suk's house was very rich.

From the moment the fire broke out in one factory, my family became difficult to repay the debt I earned from my family.

So, to reduce the burden of Yoon-suk, he paid for his own life as well as tuition.

And then....

You've been summoned by the Tower of Perforation.

Ironically, the most unrealistic event of my life restored all of the abnormally entangled spirals of Yun Seok back to normal.

‘Anyway, you're both doing well.... ’

I made sure my parents were okay...

No one has come to the conference room yet.

Yoon-suk opened a messenger app to check the characters.

‘This motherfucker's still got it. ’

Again, the first thing I noticed was a full contact from Kang Hyung-woo.

The content was tough enough to be dual personality.

I blasphemed and begged for my sincere remorse.

It was the last ten days of contact that had been established without a single day.

Do you think you blocked it and then gave up? ’

Well, I liked it.

Yoon-suk also checked the contact from Kang Hye-in.

I was mostly questioning the situation and worried if I was in the UK after it happened.

After checking one by one, it was also noticeable that Kang Hyung-woo suddenly disappeared.

It was the same day that Yoon-suk was disconnected.

Unlike Kang Hye-in, who said she was going to end the kite at all, Yoon-suk felt strangely sad.

What is it?

Why did I feel so uneasy?

The conference room door was opened and about twenty people came to visit.

All but one were challengers.

The only common man opened his mouth on their behalf.

Although he is not a challenger, he is fortunately as fluent in Korean as a local.

“Hello, I'm Michael, Head of Korea. I got a call from Mr. Ashton. ”

“Yes, this is Choi Yoon-suk. ”

“I hope this wasn't an easy decision, but I really appreciate you coming all the way out here. How aware are you of the situation? ”

“I've heard all about the rough stuff. ”

“I see. But it's quicker to see it with your own eyes than to hear it. Would you like to take a look at some resources? ”

“Yes.”

Michael briefed him by playing the attached video as if he were presenting after taking down the screen.

Among them was a massacre in England.

“This video was uploaded live to YouTube. The footage was updated in a short period of time with the best views of all time, and it was rented and reported on by several news outlets. This is the most vivid and close-up video ever taken. ”

The video began in front of Buckingham Palace.

A man was filming his face in front of the palace.

and when the playback time was 10 seconds.

The challenger appears.

A horn raised from the forehead, over two metres tall.

“The Devil.”

“Yes, it is. ”

The attention of those around me was focused on the devil who suddenly appeared in a space where there was nothing.

I could hear them muttering as they looked at the devil, but it was all in a foreign language, so I couldn't understand it with Yoon-seok.

But the atmosphere suggests that until then it was a kind of curiosity based on filming or cosplay.

- You made it.

The Devil looks around and raises his palms toward Buckingham Palace.

And I recited the command without drying it out.

- A sphere of chaos.

Effect after 5 seconds, whether or not it is an instant move.

Whoo-hoo!

Approximately 50 meters from the palm of your hand.

A massive sphere of black and purple annihilates briefly.

There was no explosion.

Just like a large slice of apple, the sphere formed briefly, and everything was fragmented into particles and absorbed back into the man's hands.

Kwa-kwa-kwam! Kwaaaaaaang! Drrrrrrrrr!

Debris spills to the ground from a missed building range.

Someone screams, and someone immediately moves and flees the scene.

Some people panicked and remained frozen.

It was a guy who was shooting a typical picture.

Soon the Devil looked at the man and spread out his palms.

And that was the end of the video.

“ ……. ”

Compared to the first video, Michael showed several videos, although the image quality was slightly degraded and the timing was cluttered.

Ferris wheel, clock tower, museum, building…….

Features were destroyed everywhere the Devil moved, and blood and screaming spawned.

Michael showed me the last pictures of London from above.

Holes were pierced in the shape of spheres and Crater's presence in London was so unrealistic that I thought it might be composite.

“Near an island in the Pacific Ocean. ”

Michael put a satellite image on the screen.

I said around the island, but I didn't see the island.

Instead, something huge is just taking its place.

“We used the name 'resolutions’ in one media, and we made this picture public first, and it's been almost official ever since. ”

Handle it...

It was the right name.

Michael showed me photos one by one in chronological order. The seafood that ate the island was growing in size differently every day.

“The 50km radius of the original site has already been eroded. ”

At this rate, Michael added the expert's opinion that this invader would cover the entire planet in three months.

‘Three months...' ’

Yoon-suk was stunned.

I didn't even know the earth looked like this because I closed my ears too much and focused only on the tower.

If the mission's trial required more than 45 days…….

By the time I got back here, it might already have been over.

“Until now, the Devil's technology has been identified as a 'sphere of chaos’. As you may have seen before, this demon absorbs something every time it destroys it. ”

Michael concluded his final briefing on the hypothesis that the Devil had something to do with the slaughter of 300,000 people in the UK and the ability to open a massive rift in the Pacific.

“What do you think? ”

Yoon-suk asked a very comprehensive question.

“Can you beat him?" ”

“To put it bluntly... yes, it is. ”

There is no doubt that he is from the duel that reached the 10th floor. One, they don't know the exact power level of Yoon-suk.

What has been done in Korea Hospital or Challenger Management is too familiar to those who have read and read numerous reports…….

I know it's not fair just saying that.

At that time, there were only hundreds of them.

The unit size is different from the current situation.

“I'm sure you'll be our best man. But… that's why we're worried. ”

“What? ”

In front of Yoon-suk, Michael turned around a little and said,

“If you find it difficult to confront, you can find another way. ”

Simply put, if you're not confident, we'll come up with a strategy that will allow you to move accordingly.

Yoon-suk didn't feel bad about it.

However, I clearly expressed my intention by shaking my head.

“No, thank you. I don't think I'm going to lose. ”

A sphere of chaos.

I didn't see such a skill in the shop. Probably a unique technology

The power itself was great enough to acknowledge Yoon-suk.

I wasn't that worried.

It takes 5 seconds to use.

For Yoon Suk, who has already transcended the human realm, 5 seconds is enough to fall out of that range.

‘Maybe there is an easy way to solve the solution...' ’

Well, you'll have to deal with the details yourself.

Not the tide on the island, not the devil.

They don't have the perfect insight to give us information.

However, I thought that what I have seen so far will be enough for me to do alone.

Michael opens his mouth as he looks at the tomb with confident victory.

“… Then can you give us confidence? ”

What the hell is this noise?

As Yoon-suk tilted his head, Michael quickly followed up.

“There are challengers who have the skills to measure their strength by numbers. And in 10 minutes I'll be here with a helicopter. And by the way, she measured 60 million demons. ”

Shame on your strength.

It's like a biocombat meter.

Somehow, it's quite interesting.

But how high can 60 million be? ’

When I didn't feel the numbers because I didn't know the reference point.

One of the group of challengers who appeared with Michael opened his mouth for the first time.

“I was 11 million. ”

A very proud voice.

“Who is that? ”

Yoon-suk looked at Michael and asked, but the answer came back from him.

“Jovan Trosian, 13th floor mission challenger. ”

The mission on the 13th floor...

I'm not surprised.

It just felt strange to say that Yonker Coin went up there after it disappeared.

To be honest, you were even more surprised when you introduced yourself to the general public by talking about trials with floormen.

“Then shouldn't it be six of you? ”

Funnily enough, I asked Joban a question this time, and the answer came back from Michael.

“The problem is that if you search the world, there won't be six challengers like the Trosians. Measuring it by a number doesn't just mean you need a few more people. ”

“I see.”

Yoon-suk nodded and looked at Joban.

He faced Yoon-suk without avoiding his gaze.

It feels like hostility is mixed somehow.

Do you think he's threatening your position? ’

If so, it's a little small.

Yoon-suk didn't think of him as a competitor.

“I understand. I don't know what it is, but let's do it. It might be fun. ”

“Yes, thank you for your consideration. ’

Michael's face brightened with Yoon-suk's acceptance.

As time passes, a helicopter sounds from above.

Then a woman appeared to wait a little longer.

“Maria!"

She seems to be in touch with the challengers here.

I simply said hello to Yoon-suk and paid attention to him because there was only room.

“Is this him...? ”

“Yes, can you do that? ”

“It's possible. It's my job. We have to try. ”

Soon a woman stood in front of Yoon-seok.

Did she hear about Yoon-suk, too?

As she approaches, the woman is trembling slightly.

Yoon-suk didn't really want to know how his notoriety spread in each country.

“Check.”

When the woman looked up, Yoon-suk nodded quietly, meaning that he was okay.

The woman's eyes turn blue as she recites the command.

The intensity of the color thickened over time.

“Is this supposed to take this long? ”

“I think it only took me a few seconds.... ”

You hear the words that the challengers around you toss.

It was about a minute after using a woman's technique.

“… Well, what is it? Are you?”

The woman opens her eyes wide and steps back.

Then Joban came worried.

“Maria, what happened? How much did you get? ”

“70 million……. ”

10 million higher than the devil.

As a result, everyone, including Michael, was delirious.

But there was even more horror in her words.

“We're not done yet. It's going up. Incredibly fast. ”

“What?"

“150,000…. ”

Do you think there's a limit to what you can do?

Suddenly, the woman started shaking....

“200 million……. ”

Fluffy.

I fell down with the last recitation.

“ ……. ”

Yoon-suk lost his horse.

What is it?

Are these people making fun of me?

First of all, there is such a suspicion....

Yoon-suk had no idea that this situation would unfold in reality.

‘This wasn't a cartoon 30 years ago... ’

It was just absurd.
