-Thank you, son. I knew that my son was amazing, but⊠I didnât think you would really grow up to be someone like this.
âNot at all, mother.â
Park Sun-ja couldnât get used to Kang Chul-Inâs almost emotionless voice.
-Donât worry about your mother. I canât be an obstacle in your way to becoming a great person, can I?
â...â
-Anyway, Iâll go now. Itâs almost time to give Arshelly a snack.
Tuk!
The call ended.
Thatâs not true, mother.
Kang Chul-In didnât agree with what Park Sun-ja had said.
Even though it was good doing these things, family was first.
Before he went to the past Kang Chul-In was a cold-blooded man who only knew to wage war, crazy in his ambition to conquer Pangaea. But now, he was different; he knew the warmth of family better than anyone.
Iâll treat you better, mother.
Vowing that to himself, Kang Chul-In put his phone back into his pocket.
âKuku!!â
Old Man Kwon laughed.
âEven though those damned bastards almost made a disaster out of things, it seems like it was a blessing in disguise!â
âIs that so?â
âI mean, the image of our company has become amazing, and the deal that we made with the government has also become successful. Oh, and that thing⊠what was it called? Black dragon?â
âThe bone dragon.â
âYeah, the bone dragon! We even got the corpse of that damned beast too.â
That wasnât it for Kang Chul-In, though.
Kang Chul-In had gone up by 3 levels in Pangaea World, and another 3 levels after killing the bone dragon.
âAnyway, Kwak-Jung. Make sure you prepare for a press conference. The time⊠maybe in 3 hours.â
âHuh?â
âI have something to say.â
âHukâŠ!â
Kwak-Jung was astonished, never knowing that the day would come where Kang Chul-in himself volunteered to go on TV.
âI wonât take in any questions from anyone, itâll just be me speaking. Understand?â
âHmm⊠Yes, milord.â
âOh, and tell me when those idiots come back.â
âYes.â
Ironically enough, this case could only be truly âconcludedâ when Dorian and his party came back from the dungeon at Sejong University.
----------
Ka-chik!
Ka-chik! Ka-chik! Ka-chik!
Hundreds of cameras took pictures of Kang Chul-in.
But he wasnât fazed.
He just stood there.
And,
âListen well.â
Kang Chul-in opened his mouth.
âI will consider this as a terror attempt to my country South Korea, and a blatant provocation to me, Kang Chul-in.â
These words were aimed towards Alex Rothschild and Albrecht Vilhelm who were the people behind this, and was a warning towards them.
âIf you want to, you can try. From now on, I will consider you guys as enemies, and make sure that you pay the price. Whether it's in Pangaea, or on Earth. No matter what measures I need to take, I will take my revenge, and make sure that itâll be hundreds, thousands of times worse than what you did to me.â
It was a declaration of war.
Using the mass media, Kang Chul-in had just declared war on Alex Rothschild and Albrecht Vilhelm, knowing that doing this would definitely reach their ears.
âBe prepared.â
Saying that, Kang Chul-in left the press conference.
âD-Director Kang! Wait a minute!â
âW-What do you mean by that statement!?â
âHow are you planning to take revengeâŠâ
âDo you know the force that was behind this?â
Still, Kang Chul-in didnât stop walking.
This was a declaration of war towards Alex Rothschild and Albrecht Vilhelm, not some sort of meeting to satisfy the curiosity of the reporters.
---------
Kang Chul-inâs press conference shook the world.
[News] Director Kang Chul-in, calls out the force behind the terror attempt!
[News] Director Kang, angered by the terror attempt⊠Provokes the force behindâŠ
[News] Galaxy Corporation âwill ally with the korean army, and make sure to take revengeâ.
News spread throughout the world and the citizens of South Korea supported Kang Chul-inâs attempt at revenge.
It made sense.
What had happened was a terror attempt on the capital of South Korea, Seoul. The Koreans right now felt like the citizens of the U.S after the 9/11 terror attack.
5 days passed.
âWhat the hell are these guys doing?â
Inside an office of the Galaxy Corporation, Kang Chul-In muttered.
âI-I donât know, sir.â
Kwak-Jung said, cold sweat pouring down his back.
âIf they donât come back soon, Iâll go myself.â
âMaybe we should wait a little whileâŠâ
âDo you think it makes sense that those guys are taking this long?â
â...Thatâs true.â
All the teams that had entered dungeons had come back, with Group H as the exception.
It was strange.
Group H was the most elite group, led by the Overlord Dorian Explorer. Even though they acted like idiots, they were actually the strongest group there was.
Another day passed.
And Group H still didnât return.
âWill this be alright?â
Lee Chae-rin said, next to Kang Chul-In.
âHmm⊠I donât know, but weâll have to see anyway.â
âIs that so?â
âEven though theyâre stupid⊠theyâre also the best there is.â
From the past, Kang Chul-In knew better than anyone the true strength and skill of Team Browser, made of Dorian Explorer, David Chrome, Sean Firefox, and John Safari.
Vroooom!
Saying that, Kang Chul-Inâs foot hit the accelerator of his Jaguar F type coupe.
-----------
Kang Chul-In, after entering the dungeon gate in Sejong University with Lee Chae-rin to look for Dorian and his party,
â...I donât know whatâs happening.â
Couldnât restrain himself from muttering in astonishment.
-Warning: Lightning God Indra is an extremely powerful humanoid monster!
-Warning: The âScroll of limit breakingâ will automatically be handed to the one that last hits âLightning God Indraâ.
â...â
Kang Chul-In was so astonished he went speechless.
âM-Mr. Chul-In? What is it?â
Lee Chae-rin tilted her head in confusion.
âIt had to be hereâŠâ
âSorry?â
âItâs nothing.â
Kang Chul-In shook his head.
As if it really is nothing⊠to think that this dungeon was the âHall of the Lightning Godâ...
It wasnât a small deal like he had said.
The important thing was that Kang Chul-In knew this dungeon extremely well.
The Hall of the Lightning God.
And Lightning God Indra.
This was a boss monster that Kang Chul-In had faced in his previous life.
And the truth behind the âscroll of limit breakingâ that was given as a reward was that it contained Kang Chul-Inâs special and unique move, Overdrive.
Hmph-!
Kang Chul-In involuntarily laughed.
He was thinking of a way of getting rid of this scroll so that no one could use it anyway, but he had forgotten about it due to his extremely busy schedule.
Now that he had literally been given a free pass to the dungeon he had been searching for, he laughed at Alex Rothschild and Albrecht Vilhelm.
âMr. Chul-In.â
While Kang Chul-In was laughing at Alex Rothschild and Albrecht Vilhelm for their stupidity, Lee Chae-rinâs expression turned weird.
âThis is strange.â
âWhat is it?â
âYou can see the quest message, right?â
âI can, why?â
â...!â
âThe number of people that have enteredâŠ
âMe and Mr. Chul-In, thatâs two people. And there are 4 people in Team Browser. Then shouldnât there only be 6 people in total?â
âYouâre right.â
âBut for some reason, there are 7 people that are inside this dungeon apparently.â
At Lee Chae-rinâs words, Kang Chul-Inâs eyes also headed towards the notification.
7/15
Lee Chae-rin was right.
âGood job. It really surprises me how much youâve grown in just a year.â
â...!â
âGood thing I saved your life.â
âHehe⊠Itâs all thanks to Mr. Chul-In.â
âItâs not because of me, but rather that youâve grown as a Lord. I hope youâll keep the good work up.â
Saying that, a smile was on Kang Chul-Inâs face. He felt like a father watching his child grow up, becoming a good Lord.
âStill, I understand why it took so long here. This is an extremely difficult dungeon.â
Kang Chul-In started heading towards the inner part of the dungeon.
I wonder⊠who that other person is.
At that moment.
[Alarm! The Lord Rankings will be announced soon!]
The Lord rankings that would affect the 2nd Lord meetings the most were revealed.
