A shabby warehouse building on the outskirts of Seoul.
The vehicle carrying Choi Sangjin and the escort vehicles stopped in front of the building.
Choi Sangjin and his bodyguards got out of the cars.
rrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
The bodyguards opened the door and entered first, then Choi Sangjin and the remaining bodyguards followed.
“You said you wanted to meet quietly, so why did you bring such a crowd?”
Seong-jun, who had been waiting alone inside the warehouse, smirked and spoke to Choi Sangjin.
Choi Sangjin smiled in response.
“Haha, it’s because of my position—it’s hard to move without bodyguards. I hope you understand.”
“Well, I suppose I can understand. But is it all right to have a conversation while they’re here?”
With that, he sought Seon-hwa’s understanding and took out the Dungeon Activation Device he had brought.
Choi Sangjin looked momentarily flustered, then spoke to his bodyguards.
“Ahem. Everyone, please step outside.”
The man who seemed to be the head of security said with a blank expression, “We are bodyguards protecting the representative. We cannot leave the representative alone. Even if we see or hear something, we won’t mind, so please don’t worry about us.”
Hearing that, Choi Sangjin’s expression subtly twisted.
“Protection? Don’t you know who that person is? That’s the Saint, Healer Kim Seongjun. Do you think the Saint, Healer Kim Seongjun, would ever harm me? And even if such a thing happened, could you actually stop him?”
No matter how skilled the bodyguards were, they were ultimately ordinary people.
Meanwhile, Seong-jun, though a healer, was S-rank.
Of course, he was a healer with offensive skills even more powerful than a dealer’s.
At those words, the security team leader lowered his head.
“Ugh… Understood. We’ll wait outside.”
As Choi Sangjin said, if Seong-jun decided to harm him, there was no way they could stop him.
No, they wouldn’t even be able to buy a brief moment to escape.
That’s why they complied with Choi Sangjin’s words.
rrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
Once all the bodyguards left and the warehouse door closed, only Seong-jun and Choi Sangjin remained inside.
“Now we’re alone. How much do you want for selling me that device?”
“Well, since I already have more money than I can use, that doesn’t really matter. Instead, satisfy my curiosity.”
Compared to the funds Choi Sangjin possessed, the money in Seong-jun’s account might seem like nothing.
But that didn’t mean the amount was small.
Over 100 billion won was enough to live leisurely for a lifetime.
Besides, with the Dungeon Creation Device, enormous sums would come in every week, so there was no need to fuss over petty cash.
“Curiosity? What is it?”
Choi Sangjin asked, looking puzzled.
Seong-jun smiled faintly and opened his mouth.
“Do you happen to know the name Pascal?”
At Seong-jun’s unexpected question, Choi Sangjin showed a moment of embarrassment.
Seong-jun didn’t miss the opening and quickly activated Divine Eye.
‘Divine Eye!’
[Analysis Result]
Choi Sangjin: [A-Class Mad Berserker]
Average Stats: [A++]
Detailed Stats: [Viewable]
Weakness: Dominates enemies with powerful attack power and swift speed, and shows strength against both close-range and long-range classes.
However, his defense is relatively weak, and he often loses reason during battle.
If systematically engaged using faster speed, he can be subdued.
Combat Style: [Close-range style using powerful attack power and fast speed.]
Core Skills: [Frenzy / Blood Rage]
Reliability: 33
Mental State: [Very flustered that a name that shouldn’t be known came from a person who shouldn’t know it.]
Last Thought: [What? How the hell does he know that name? Is there a spy inside?]
A final verification.
Even though it was already certain that Choi Sangjin was Pascal, Seong-jun brought up the name as a final check.
And he observed Choi Sangjin’s reaction with Divine Eye.
“Ha, haha, Pascal? What’s that? I have no idea what Healer Kim Seongjun is talking about.”
Choi Sangjin tried to play dumb, but it couldn’t work on Seong-jun, who already knew everything.
“This device. I heard it was developed by some unknown organization. But it seems the headquarters is elsewhere, and there are branches in each country. Naturally, there’s a branch in Korea too, and the branch chief’s name is Pascal. I guess the black-robed, unidentified figure didn’t tell you that?”
At Seong-jun’s words, Choi Sangjin’s eyes trembled violently.
How did Seong-jun know this?
Looking at him, Seong-jun continued.
“That unknown organization’s Korean branch conducted device tests here, and that almost caused casualties. Of course, both tests happened to have me there, so they passed safely. Still, the people who did such things can’t have good intentions, right? But here’s what I’m curious about.”
Seong-jun stared straight into Choi Sangjin’s eyes, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and continued with a cold expression.
“Why did you, Choi Sangjin, go to the OO Building where the Korean branch executives were meeting? And wearing a black robe with the hood pulled down low?”
At Seong-jun’s words, Choi Sangjin stepped back in shock.
“Wh-what are you…”
“Representative Choi Sangjin. No, Pascal, the unknown organization’s Korean branch chief and A-class close-range dealer, the Mad Berserker. In this world, there are no eternal secrets. No matter how hard you try to keep your secret, someone is already playing above your head. Like me.”
In the end, Choi Sangjin had no choice but to reveal his true colors.
“Unbelievable. How did you find out? Was there a spy among the executives?”
That admission confirmed he was Pascal.
Seong-jun shrugged.
“Oh dear. For someone who’s a branch chief, you lack trust in your own members. The executives would be sad if they heard that. But anyway, my information network is a bit wider than you think. Of course, it’s up to you whether to believe it or not. Let’s stop the side talk and get to the point. We’re both busy people, aren’t we?”
At Seong-jun’s words, Choi Sangjin asked with a tense expression.
“So what do you want from me?”
“Everything you know about the organization that made this.”
Seong-jun shook the device in his hand.
Choi Sangjin snorted.
“Hmph. You think I’ll tell you that? Don’t be ridiculous. Hey, Kim Seongjun. I’m the representative of Shinwha Electronics and a royal family member of the Shinwha Group. No matter how much you’re called the Saint, you can’t do anything to me here. Don’t tell me you think you can touch the Shinwha Group and get away with it?”
The opponent wasn’t just an ordinary hunter; he was a royal family member of the Shinwha Group and the representative of Shinwha Electronics.
If Seong-jun harmed him, it wouldn’t just be a problem with Shinwha Group—it could become a social issue.
Being called the Saint didn’t give him immunity to harm people arbitrarily.
“Oh, really? But that only applies if there’s clear evidence that I harmed you. Haven’t you heard this? Dead men tell no tales.”
When the words “dead men tell no tales” came out of Seong-jun’s mouth, Choi Sangjin smirked.
“With one word from me, the bodyguards outside will immediately blow this place. They’ll report what happened here to the company. As you already seem to know, I’m an A-class dealer. You may be S-rank, but at least I can buy them time to escape. Dead men tell no tales? Fine. But do you think everything will end with just me dying?”
Just then.
rrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
The warehouse door opened, and someone dressed entirely in black with a black mask entered.
“I’ve dealt with everyone.”
Though his identity was hidden, the voice was very familiar.
It was Chang-su, the Assassin class.
Outside the building, Choi Sangjin’s unconscious bodyguards were visible.
“Hey. Why did you think I came alone? You’re not the only one who can bring a crowd. Tch. You’re more naive than I thought. Now, there’s no one to report what happened here to the outside. What should we do? If I kill everyone and dump them in the middle of the Pacific, no one will ever know. Don’t you think so?”
“Kuh! D-dare someone called the Saint do such a thing?”
“Ah! I was wondering when you’d say that. The Saint? Fine. But I’m not a saint to just anyone. I don’t want to be called a saint by a scheming bastard like you.”
With that, he slowly pulled out his mace.
Choi Sangjin hurriedly stepped back and flicked his arm.
shing!
The bracelet on his wrist instantly transformed into a large greatsword.
“A shape-shifting weapon? Nice. But are you sure? You’re only A-class. I doubt you can handle me.”
“Whether it’s long or short, you have to try to know.”
Choi Sangjin knew he had no chance in this fight.
He had seen Seong-jun’s combat footage more than a few times, so he was well aware of the insurmountable gap between them.
Still, he couldn’t just die quietly.
“Why make things complicated? Just tell me everything you know. Then I’ll let you go safely, and furthermore, we could become very close. Think about it. The Saint Kim Seongjun boasting a close relationship with Shinwha Electronics representative Choi Sangjin. Sounds good, doesn’t it?”
Seong-jun wanted to settle things with words rather than a fight if possible.
But Choi Sangjin seemed unwilling.
“The moment I say that, I’m already dead meat. What use is that after I’m dead?”
“Tch. It’s better than dying here right now. At least you’ll have time to prepare. And if I keep my mouth shut, that’s it, right? A branch chief like you wouldn’t have brought a rat here, would you?”
At Seong-jun’s words, Choi Sangjin looked thoughtful.
Seeing that, Seong-jun added, “You run a company, so can’t you do that calculation? Are you going to die here with them now, or are you going to leave here alive with them? You just have to choose. Worried about the aftermath? But too bad. You have no future now.”
Even if he fought, victory was practically impossible, and there was also the masked person here, who seemed to be Seong-jun’s ally.
If a fight broke out, it was ten to one that Choi Sangjin would lose.
The situation was turning against him in every way.
Suddenly, Choi Sangjin burst into manic laughter.
“Kekeke! Kekekeke! This is driving me crazy. That I, Choi Sangjin, have been cornered like this. I thought there was no way you could know my identity, and I was too careless. That must have created this situation. Fine, I admit I was too complacent. But can you believe what I tell you? What if my words aren’t true? What if it’s not everything I know? What if I lie to get out of this crisis and then stab you in the back later? Conversely, even if I say everything, there’s no guarantee you’ll spare me, is there?”
At Choi Sangjin’s words, Seong-jun smiled.
“Don’t worry about that. When you’re called the Saint, you naturally gain an eye that sees through the truth. I can tell whether you’re telling the truth or lying. And once you tell me everything, from that moment on, you’ll have betrayed the organization and be on my side. I have no need to harm an ally.”
Seong-jun had Divine Eye, and if he activated it frequently while Choi Sangjin spoke, he could at least tell if he was lying.
That’s why he spoke so confidently.
Choi Sangjin hardened his expression and opened his mouth.
“The organization’s headquarters is in the United States.”
A very concise statement from Choi Sangjin.
But it couldn’t fool Seong-jun’s Divine Eye.
‘Divine Eye!’
Mental State: [Intending to test whether he can really see through the truth.]
Last Thought: [An eye that sees through the truth? Don’t make me laugh. Fine! Let’s see you guess. People usually believe it when you say America is behind every conspiracy. I said the headquarters in Switzerland is in the United States—let’s see if you can tell.]
Seong-jun had only intended to use Divine Eye to determine truth or falsehood.
But unexpectedly, he hit the jackpot.
He also obtained the priceless information that the organization’s headquarters was in Switzerland.
Having confirmed Choi Sangjin’s words were false with Divine Eye, Seong-jun moved to stand before him at an incredible speed that was hard to follow with the eyes.
Then.
thump!
He grabbed Choi Sangjin’s throat with one hand.
“Kuhk!”
Choi Sangjin gasped, unable to breathe from the suddenness.
The force was so strong that he couldn’t even think of shaking it off.
An A-class top-tier close-range dealer was overpowered in strength by a healer.
“I told you. I can distinguish truth from lies. What? You said the headquarters is in the United States? Hey, are you testing me right now? There’s probably a branch in the United States. If you try to test me again, I’ll have to assume you don’t intend to leave here alive.”
Seong-jun only said that the claim about the headquarters in the United States was false; he didn’t reveal that he knew the headquarters was in Switzerland.
He wanted to make it seem like just an ability to distinguish truth from falsehood.
“Kuh! Okay, okay! Let go of this, will you?”
Seong-jun released the strength from his hand.
swish.
“Cough! Hah. Crazy. How is a healer stronger than me? This is insane.”
He was an A-class top-tier close-range dealer, and among them, a berserker type who never lost in strength.
But even though Seong-jun was S-rank, being overpowered in strength by a mere healer was absurd.
“Don’t even think of lying to me. And don’t try to cleverly mix truth with lies. Thinking of tossing a few bits to get by? Don’t do that either. If you try to test me once more, I’ll assume you have no intention of talking further. And you’ll be on tomorrow’s news: Shinwha Electronics representative Choi Sangjin suddenly missing.”
Seong-jun’s expression was colder than ever.
Because of that, Choi Sangjin judged that if he pulled any more tricks, his life might really be in danger.
“It seems your claim to see through the truth isn’t completely wrong. Fine. I’ll tell you everything I know. But promise me just one thing. To preserve my life, I still need to function as the Korean branch chief. So at least until you obtain the power to wipe out the organization in one go, you must keep my secret.”
No matter how great Seong-jun was, Choi Sangjin didn’t think he could wipe out the organization in one blow.
That’s why he demanded such a promise.
If it was nailed down like this, Seong-jun wouldn’t recklessly leak the secret.
But that was because he didn’t know Seong-jun.
Seong-jun would eventually reach EX-class, though it might take time.
Frankly, even SS-class would be enough to handle most things, but if he reached EX-class?
He could surely wipe out a puny organization like that.
Of course, it would take a very long time to get there, and he had no intention of waiting that long.
“I’ll do that. But promise me one thing. If any orders come down from headquarters, notify me first. I’ll handle it so you’re not suspected.”
“Damn it. How did it come to this? Hah. First, the name is Revolution, and the headquarters is in Switzerland. Who the master of Revolution is, even I don’t know. Only the three Overlords who actually run Revolution know the master’s identity. And…”
Choi Sangjin told everything he knew.
Seong-jun intermittently used Divine Eye to check for lies.
He spoke everything without hiding anything until the end, and Seong-jun, as promised, let him go peacefully.
Inside the car heading home.
Chang-su was in the passenger seat.
*
“Brother. I feel like I heard something I shouldn’t have. Isn’t this too big for us to handle?”
At Chang-su’s words, Seong-jun nodded.
“That’s why I’ll tell the team members in detail. Anyway, once I get entangled with Revolution, you, Gwang-taek hyung, Yuseon, and even Seon-hwa noona will be caught up. And even if not immediately, if necessary, I might inform the Holy Emperor and ask for help.”
The opponent was a vast organization with branches all over the world.
No matter how great Seong-jun was, he couldn’t fight ten enemies with one hand.
Naturally, he planned to strengthen his own power while secretly cooperating with the world’s major guilds to deal with Revolution.
Of course, it would take time.
For now, the only connection he had was the Holy Emperor, so it would be quite a while.
“And surprisingly, world domination. I thought it was just something out of a novel or anime, but I didn’t know there were people actually trying to pull it off.”
That was it. Revolution’s ultimate goal was world domination.
“I’m not sure about domination. But if they set off all the dungeons from F-class to the unbreachable S-class distributed worldwide, every corner of the world would instantly fall into massive chaos. It would truly be an apocalypse. The problem is, even they wouldn’t be unscathed. How exactly do they plan to conquer the world in that chaos?”
According to Choi Sangjin, Revolution’s ultimate goal was world domination, and as a means to that end, they planned to set off all the dungeons worldwide simultaneously when the preparations were complete.
From F-class to the so-called unbreachable S-class. If all those dungeons exploded at once, the world would face a catastrophic apocalypse.
The entire Earth would become a monster-infested hell.
What was curious was that even Revolution wouldn’t be safe in such a situation, so why would they devise such an absurd plan?
Seong-jun couldn’t understand what they were thinking to attempt such a thing.
