Re-fight (1)
An office filled with all kinds of fancy decorations.
“Is tracking ultimately a failure?”
The man who was reading the report while looking at the monitor as usual frowned and sighed without realizing it.
Meanwhile, his mechanical prosthetic eye continued to mentally scan and organize the organized data on the ‘large hospital terrorist attack and the Holy Knight in White Armor’ in a clear and concise manner.
‘Korea this time too. That’s also divine power…’
-It has not yet been confirmed which world the divine power is from.
-Therefore, his origin is not yet known, or is presumed to be a dimension discovered very recently.
After checking the last details once again, the ruler sank deeply into his chair, massaging his eyebrows as if he was in pain.
As this incident has become a hot topic in Korea, naturally, Beoncheonhoe was aware of the situation in almost real time.
The trend of the newly powerful, particularly those who use special power called divine power, has the potential to become a big variable.
“Hahoetal and a vampire named Heinz aren’t enough, and now a Pope-level paladin? her! “This is ridiculous.”
Yulryeongja bursts out laughing as if it is absurd.
Of course, it was a common occurrence around the world for returnees with strong power to appear, but the problem lay in the period and location.
‘It’s been less than half a year since the Hahoe Mask first appeared. But in the meantime, three named names appeared in a row from the same area?’
At this point, it was not something that could simply be dismissed as a coincidence.
Rather than ignoring it, it would be reasonable to assume that there is something to that small peninsula.
‘Once again, we failed to trace his whereabouts.’
Moreover, his behavior pattern was quite similar to that of the other guys before him.
Even though the Korean branch of the Beoncheonhoe was withdrawing from the scene and holding its breath, I was confident in its information power…
‘Could it be that this is why Oracle said we should be cautious in Korea?’
Tsk, the commanding ruler clicked his tongue and manipulated the magic tool placed on the side to activate a communication network that was only allowed for the branch leader.
There was a high possibility that the paladin’s presence could become a variable in some way, so it was necessary to take precautions in advance if possible.
‘I said the Korean branch of Pantheon moved to find him.’
Due to the nature of the organization, the Pantheon, which had weak cohesion, tended to give preference to those with strong divine power.
Since the superiority and inferiority between them, who have different gods, can only be based on the only thing they have in common, ‘faith’.
In such a situation, a priest who may be one of the world’s best suddenly appeared in Korea.
‘Yes, once you get it on one side, it will help in some way. ‘Whether it’s a face-to-face meeting or actual expansion of influence.’
And it was the same here.
With a talent of that level, it would be best to somehow put him on a leash and use him.
Although it hurt his pride to ask for cooperation from elsewhere for something that happened in his jurisdiction, he had already experienced several failures and decided to choose practicality over personal prestige.
“Let’s make the board a little bigger.”
He sent a message through the magic tool he activated.
Sent by: Yulryeongja, head of the East Asia branch of Beoncheonhoe.
Received, Secretary of the North American Branch of Buncheonhoe (Scribe).
The place where the person who received his contact stays.
It was the headquarters of the Pantheon, a world-religious union.

‘It was overheated more than I thought. ‘I guess I’ll need to create a solid alibi at some point.’
When I returned home from my outing, I glanced at the passing public opinion and lightly shrugged my shoulders.
Since it is true that he was at the scene, it might be bothersome if someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder tries to conduct a full investigation…
‘That doesn’t mean anything to me. Even if you are monitored 24 hours a day, you can easily ignore it using your new ability.’
Strengthening Hugo’s unique skills in succession before sending him to Ganghwan-gye.
The ability created at 1.3 million was an additional effect of “object projection,” which is expected in the future.
And one more thing, what I acquired through reinforcement that cost 1.4 million points is—.
It was a function that allowed you to summon an avatar remotely.
Invoking the alter ego, which was previously possible only in the vicinity of the main body, can now be done freely in a wide area with a radius of 30 kilometers.
Of course, in order to summon accurately, there was a limitation that the location had to be recognized in some way, but it was a great advantage to be able to instantly dispatch the clone to the desired location simply by doing so.
Now that I live in the outskirts of Seoul, I have virtually all of Seoul, as well as Incheon and Suwon, within range.
‘If we grow further here, we may be able to instantly send avatars beyond Korea to anywhere in the world. It’s unfortunate that the population hasn’t increased, but in fact, the situation is still sufficient, so this isn’t a bad thing.’
My avatars were still busy moving around in their respective positions.
Those who had temporarily gathered in Tarak returned to their positions, Hubert, who had taken refuge in the south, returned to the company with Diana, and Howard began producing new suits based on his actual experience.
‘Still, it’s convenient because the cooldown of the Other World Transfer Jin has been reduced to 5 days. It’s already been two days… no, there’s only about a day and a half left.’
Of course, as has been the case up to now, if you don’t have it, you can do whatever you want, but there was a difference in mindset when you have insurance and when you don’t.
Wouldn’t it be better to be certain about something rather than having to worry about resolving the incident for no reason?
‘Anyway, since we’ve dealt with the revolutionaries, there won’t be any particular danger in Outerica.’
With a happy smile, I headed to the gym to do today’s routine, upper body training.
***
Immediately after a major battle took place in Tarak between the warrior party and the immortal king.
Given the importance of the incident, news about it quickly spread around the world.
The message that was delivered to the imperial family of the Azerion Empire, the world’s most powerful nation, naturally flowed to Riley, the successor.
When she encountered it, she naturally…
“···So I think I’ll have to leave for a while.”
“okay?”
The information was shared with Hesperon.
“Even so, I had to go once when the Pope’s condolences began, but it’s not often that people in high positions get a chance to gather like that, right?”
The Pope’s funeral was held by church members, with the main shrine closed for a while, according to procedures.
This incident occurred just when the time had come to open it up to outsiders and receive condolences.
“So, now that we’re gathered like that, I think we’ll even hold a countermeasures meeting together. Hmm, it’s abbreviated, but I guess it can be considered the third summit meeting…”
“If it’s a place like that, you should definitely go. “Now you are the Crown Princess, the representative of the empire in name and reality.”
“···Yeah, that’s right.”
The reason why Riley became so sullen during the natural schedule was because Hesperon could not accompany him on this trip to the Holy Land.
As we had always been together at least once a day, I felt anxious for some reason when we suddenly had to be apart for a long period of time.
“As expected, I will do something so that we can go together…”
“huh? Hey, there’s no need to overdo it. It’s such an important time, so you can’t just throw rumors around, right? “If you go there, your teacher will be there too.”
“Uh, that’s true though.”
The goal of this trip to the Holy Land is to attend the Pope’s funeral and participate in a countermeasures meeting.
As a representative, she had the responsibility to lead the delegation, and she could not bring to such an important position a so-called ‘lover’ who had no position or title… and whom the people in the imperial palace were talking about.
No matter what their relationship was like, it was true that it was not good for the world to see.
The situation is different from the second summit, when Hesperon joined the warrior party and went to the Great Temple of Roselia.
‘I have the title of Isea’s disciple, so it should be possible if I force myself, but there’s no need to make a mistake by doing so.’
Whether he was the archmage’s disciple or the princess’s benefactor, he was not worthy of being included in a delegation representing a country.
With a slight shrug, he offered a reasonable compromise to appease Riley.
“But just in case, I will see you off the day I leave. I’ll be there to meet you when you come, so don’t worry too much. “It won’t be a problem if I just accompany you for a while.”
“···Hmm, such a problem… No, no. “If you can do that, I would be grateful.”
She smiled vaguely and nodded slowly.
Although she had not yet been officially installed, the position of crown princess was appointed and the basic security itself became much tighter than before.
This delegation was also scheduled to be accompanied by a master-level knight and archmage who were stronger than Hesperon, but since he had already saved her from danger several times, he would be of great help in achieving mental stability.
From No ble mt L dot c om
And some time passes.
Shortly after the hospital attack on Earth and Heinrich’s spectacular debut.
The day has come for Riley to leave for the Grand Temple of Roselia.
***
The Great Temple of Xeron located on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
“Then take care of yourselves, princess. “I’ll be waiting.”
“hmm.”
Hesperon followed to the entrance and bowed politely to see Riley off.
She, the representative of the delegation, nodded her head once and calmly led dozens of people into the main temple.
Her outspoken appearance exuded the charisma of the next emperor, but to him who remembered her pouting her lips in dissatisfaction when they were alone just yesterday, she just seemed cute.
Just like that, the entire imperial delegation disappeared inside.
“Tsk—it’s been a while since I’ve been alone. “No, isn’t it just the first time?”
Hesperon stretched and turned away from the entrance to the great temple.
‘As soon as I entered the immortality, I was with Riley, and after that, I was in the warrior party… ‘Because I was stuck in the imperial palace with Riley again.’
It was an entity dispatched for that purpose from the beginning, but when it came to this, I felt something strange.
What’s more, hasn’t there been nothing to do lately other than chatting with Riley in the imperial palace or doing personal training?
‘Of course, harvesting karma and raising one’s level is the ultimate goal.’
This is Geron, the capital of the Azerion Empire.
It was one of the largest cities on the continent, representing Outerica in name and reality.
But now all that remains in his memory is…
‘Let’s see. Except for being inside the imperial palace, and except for simply moving around.’
The vicious Immortal King attacked and destroyed them all.
All I could remember was rolling around to protect Riley on the way back from the second summit.
‘Wow, I’ve lived a miserable life.’
I guess I could at least try sightseeing.
Of course, I had no intention of actually exploring the city now.
Although he has only been in this world for three years, the density of time he has experienced is on a different level from others.
The time to admire unfamiliar downtown areas has already passed.
“Hmm, let’s go back now. “There are things I have to do.”
Hesperon, who was fiddling with the blindfold covering his right eye, shrugged his shoulders and got into the carriage that was waiting to pick him up.
And as I felt the carriage slowly moving, I quietly organized my future tasks.
Thanks to the constant training and taking the growth elixir, I had become quite accustomed to the newly acquired abilities.
Now, if you add other abilities and the help of magic tools centered on the “Right Arm of Craving” that resides in your arm, you wonder how it could be compared to the extreme level.
‘Well, of course, if I fight for real, I’ll lose.’
If you use the curse, the attack power seems to be sufficient, but the defense power is very lacking compared to that.
So what he has been trying recently is to find a summon that can supplement his weak defense with the help of the imperial summon wizards.
A guy who is familiar with such negative energy and doesn’t care about the powerful curse that resides in his body.
‘It turns around and becomes a summoned animal again. I have an additional method in mind… I think that still needs more time.’
As he was planning his future and contemplating his career path, he sighed and reached out to the closed window of the carriage.
Even though I didn’t plan on going sightseeing, I was planning on seeing the outside scenery…
Rattling—
The window did not open.
“hmm?”
Rattling— rattling—
I tried a few more times to see if there was something wrong, but the same thing happened.
Blocking his “super strength” meant using not just physical strength but even mysteries such as magic.
As soon as my thoughts reached that point, my thoughts suddenly cooled and my senses became tense.
Doo doo doo doo—!
And at that moment, the carriage, which was running at a reasonable speed, began to run like crazy.
The inside shook violently, as if there had been an earthquake, due to the shaking that was not properly alleviated even by the luxury carriage’s shock absorbers.
There was no need to think anymore.
Paralarak—!
He immediately unsealed the bandage covering his right arm and—.
Kwaaang—!
It immediately broke the side of the carriage and flew out.
Then, using the countless black threads that spewed out from his right hand, he minimized the impact and landed safely on the floor.
It was a wonderful performance that combined artistic control with a terrifying destructive power that was enough to tear apart the magic circle that was trapped inside with a single blow, but the person who did it couldn’t bear to laugh.
“···It’s quite good. “I guess it wasn’t all about skill with tools?”
Suddenly, a group of masked people surrounded the surrounding slums.
However, the only person who spoke to him without a mask was a familiar face.
‘Oh, again… I think I’m going to be traumatized now…’
As expected, he doesn’t seem to fit in with this city.
Hesperon is that familiar face.
He sighed as he looked at Stave, the criminal who attempted to assassinate the princess, who was the reason he lost his eyes and had a curse placed on his arm.
