Chapter 282: Agent of L and Al – 1

1

When the new Dark Earth Gates came to life, the people were worried that it might happen again. Should it be considered as bad timing? The gate, which was beginning to spring up again after a short break from monsters, had created a distrust of the media clamoring for reassurance. As the people were terrified, each nation began to defend against the Dark Earth Monsters.

This was the beginning of the situation that Jaehwang had hoped for. He wanted them to survive on their own until he stopped the Dark Earth. Of course, someone might say, “Why are you creating such a hassle?”

One could say that, “Shouldn’t we just release a video about the Dark Earth?” But it’s just a naive idea. The owners of dark holes were thoroughly hidden behind society and they tried to manipulate the flow of information to the public.

All they did was to tell the truth to the world through the media. Any truth could be destroyed overnight by being framed as nonsense like a conspiracy of aliens. Of course, Jaehwang could come forward and announce it himself. There’s no one in the world right now that could ignore Jaehwang’s words. That’s why the owners of the dark holes also accepted Jaehwang. Of course, to their taste.

However, Jaehwang decided to take a faster and tougher approach. To be fair and in truth, he was upset. What if one were running sweaty on his feet trying to do something about the fate of the world, but there were others who couldn’t stand having their shares at stake and turned selfish?

So, Jaehwang decided to take the method Baeklin used in the past. The injection of vaccines was a way of taking some sacrifice into account. The Dark Earth Gate occurred only where the owners of the dark holes were believed to be living or where their most important business base was located. Not so big gates sprung up and the monsters poured out. Funny enough, there was little damage from ordinary citizens, they also defended themselves quite well.

As expected, a formidable team of 8-Star hunters came out to defend. Before Jaehwang appeared, only Emperor and Empress were the strongest, but he didn’t expect them to have an attack squad made up of such hunters. They could have used it previously but they only brought it out when they were in a crisis. It wasn’t just that. They used laser satellite weapons that were usually used by Jaehwang in dealing with the dragon, but they also used self-destructing drones that he had never heard of and attacked the monsters. But, Baek-Mi was a cyborg soldier called the Iron Soldier.

Hundreds of robots appeared like packs of dogs and clung to monsters, each of which was not only great in their attack skills but also had its own built-in self-destructing device, causing fatal damage to the monsters in the event of an explosion. It was a clever use of the idea that the Mana shield only works on the outside of the body, but would not work when entering the inside the body. They crawled through various holes in the monster’s body and exploded inside, leaving the monsters helpless. But at some point, that was no longer useful. Over-technologies were of no use in the face of the terrifying monster of absolute strength that they could not resist.

Thud! Thud! POW!!

“Get away! Get back!”

“Run away!”

From the moment the monsters at the size of a building appeared, all they could do was observe. They were falling like reeds in the video shown by the Master Archer, and they were turning the whole world into hell as they endured dozens of missiles.

Although only a small fraction of the foundations of the owners of the dark hole had been destroyed, the situation had been very fatal. They do not only play behind others, but there were also many businesses that have been exposed to the outside world.

The biggest of them was the monster-related industries. From the state-of-the-art laboratories that study mana stones or by-products of monsters to processing plants or exchange markets that handled high value-added materials, Dark Earth gates were created and the monsters that poured out there collapsed all their businesses overnight. Fortunately, the Dark Earth gates disappeared on their own after only about a week or so. Like those gates that appeared in Tokyo in the past.

At such tactful reality, some even thought that someone might have terrorized them, but only four people knew that there was a technology in the world that could create gates. They were Kwon Je, Irumi, Jaehwang and Baeklin, the terrorist party. A secret was a secret when you know little, and Jaehwang was a man who knew it very well.

“Phew.” Baeklin had a rewarding look on his face as he wiped the sweat off his forehead. He received a total of 20 Tier-9 Mana Stones from Jaehwang… He used it to create the Dark Earth Gates while traveling around Europe and the U.S.

And now, he had completed the last 20 gate seeds.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“No problem.”

The waiting mummies were loaded into a container, which was carefully sealed.

A fusion of mana stone, true method, and magic; those were used to make a hemispherical board about 3 meters in diameter and when installed, a mana stone would be inserted to create a gate.

This last gift was for the Rothschild family and since it’s the last, they can’t wait to see how great a gate would be created.

When he finished his work, he stood up.

“Uh…” His heart stung. It’s a pain that he felt in his mana stone.

Of course, it is not that he doubts about its performance. He just holds a grudge against who installed this mana stone in him. There would have been no such pain if he had been treated with a little more care, but he had no complaint against him. First of all, he saved Baeklin’s life.

He swept his chest with his new right hand. It was a part that had been bitten by a Dark Earth monster before, but he used magic to replace his hand. Although it was named the ‘Black Dragon,’ its official name would be the Heaven’s Elixir of Life. It was his secret weapon made with a monster’s divinity and depending on how it was used, it could be used to kill a Tier-9 monster in one blow.

“That’s ironic.”

He relished his appetite by drinking a pop full of caffeine he had left behind.

In the past, he did this alone. No one around him could be trusted. Although it was an atonement for what his ancestors did, it made him feel confident that he could at least struggle to prevent the convergence of the Dark Earth and the Earth for his loved ones in the Republic of Korea.

Then, he almost died when he met the patriarch of the Martial Arts House, the punisher of the Samsin family, who his ancestors feared the most, but it became a blessing and Jaehwang was now a reliable helper to him. No, he was not just a helper, but a much more powerful and fearful figure.

He traveled around Elus in the past for the lack of force, raising the Orcs that would be his strength for decades. While the Orcs were ignorant and barbaric, there have been no better monsters to use than them as long as the leader was wise to offer them direction. Well, those Hellkans and Orcs have also been destroyed by the Jaehwang himself, but he had no regrets. His powerful helper, Jaehwang, was now a ‘God.’ In addition, Goongi, who was by his side, was as strong as Jaehwang.

Even the two dragons, to whom he had to bribe all cigarettes in his Infinity Storage in Elus in the past, lost to Jaehwang and became his subordinates.

“It feels a little empty.”

After a few decades, his ancestors disappeared. They were decimated at the Dungeon to save him. Although they have been the main culprit behind the disasters and accidents for over thousands of years, they have also been great ancestors because they have been together for decades. After a moment’s silence, Baeklin soon began walking, naturally poking his hands into the pants.

It’s finally time to finish this tedious task.

“I’m just going to watch the back-to-back cartoons until they get here.”

Beep… Ding…Ding…Dung…

“L’s blessing has come. The ancient warrior in his protection…”

“Wow… L’s warrior descended.”

The song rang into the quirky beat. Five-color petals were falling from all sides as they cheered. Jaehwang walked between them with a blank face.

The Su girl he met before said, “Crick~ Une~ Koona~” at the end of every word, and he never knew there was such a colorful expression like this. The Su people’s capital welcomes Jaehwang’s visit. They were cheering and rejoicing at him.

In fact, this was not what Jaehwang had intended. No, not even L intended this from the beginning. The original plan involved him summoning them to earth, but L appeared alone. The reason was that Al was still not recovering. The injury by Goongi was so severe that Al almost died. L asked Jaehwang and Goongi to help restore Al and Jaehwang accepted her request.

So, they moved through L’s teleporter using her divinity, but at that very moment, the monsters poured out of the Dark Earth gate in Elus and L asked for their disposal. It was supposed to be done by L, but L was not responding properly to the Dark Earth monsters because she was taking care of Al.

It wasn’t that difficult for Jaehwang, so he wiped them all out. That was the beginning of this incident. When he thought it was over, he saw a group of palace knights and shamans flooding out from the temple. Originally, he would ignore it, but when L stepped up and said, “This was done by the god of the Earth,” it was seen as if an oracle was fulfilled, re-establishing the divinity that had been lost when he fought those monsters.

He accepted it because there was nothing to lose. Of course, that was it. Their business was in the Dark Earth anyway, and Elus was a town he wouldn’t come back if it weren’t for the dragons. The problem was after the status of Al was reported.

“How the hell did you make Al like this?” L said with a growl.

“Hah! Did you want me to give a little bit of mercy to an enemy? It was delicious. This guy… Especially that part…” The attacker, Goongi, responded to L’s growl, smacking his palate on the chest of a Su In. From Goongi’s point of view, she only faced her enemies, and her myths had many fatal things to the same kind of deity. Having built myths through battles with other gods as a guard against the West, she had the power to eat a God and attacked Al with it.

Al’s Dragon heart suffered a fatal injury as Goongi chewed, tore and tasted it. L tried to recover somehow, but she was not enough alone. Of course, it wasn’t that there was no way… Al could recover his body Dragonheart through sleeping.

But then, Jaehwang can’t drag Al to the dungeon.

“Al can’t help you,” L said as if she didn’t want to deal with Goongi anymore.

“Hmm.”

To a certain extent, his side was responsible for the wound of this Red Dragon called Al, but also his side was the one that needed help, so Jaehwang must help them out, but he didn’t know how.

“How can I help?” When Jaehwang asked, L took a peek at Goongi and opened her mouth.

“First of all, you have to obtain your divinity here on this land.”

“And?”

“Well, not just the divinity.”

She followed her words slowly and when all her words were finished, Goongi growled as if she were threatening to tear her at once.

“Don’t imply it and just say you want to be killed.”

It sounds like a joke, but it’s not a joke. Jaehwang shook his head at her words.

“I’ll pretend that I didn’t hear what you told me about marrying the queen of the Dracoon.”
