Seoul Station’s Necromancer Chapter 199:


Chapter 199 – Trahnet (4)

 

“What is it?”

“I’ll try to persuade the Deletion Admin . ”

“He doesn’t have his memory, so what can you do!”

The risk was too large .  

The man was crazy, and he was too unpredictable .

Toppler calmly tried to persuade the agitated Speaker Shelt .

“He already has the keys now .  We have no choice, but to call him here for a Reset . ”

“He tries to kill any one of us that he meets, so how will you be able to persuade him!  Words don’t work on that **** . ”

“I’ll persuade him . ”

“…… . ”

Shelt glared at him, but Toppler didn’t blink .

“I can persuade him .  I have to go to earth . ”

“…… . ”

“Do you have any other options?”

“Eeek… . ”

He might be right .

“I’ll have to discuss this with the Council… . ”

“Speaker!”

Toppler suddenly yelled out in anger .

“Are you trying to kill us all?  This isn’t the time for us to hesitate .  We have to get in front of this as soon as possible!”

They were in uncharted territory .

Iello had appeared much earlier than the records indicated .  Kahng-woojin hadn’t finished his key, yet he had encountered Iello .  Moreover, he was able to achieve a ridiculous result .

The cause of this change was numerous, but Dr . Toppler’s arbitrary decision to meet him was probably one of the contributing factors .

“Since you caused this incident, you are in charge of fixing it!”

“…understood . ”

“Open . ”

At Speaker’s Shelt’s command, the two panels to the glass door slid open .  Dr . Toppler became a free man .

He immediately gave a request to the soldier standing ready off to the side .

“Please ready my ship . ”

He had to get to earth as soon as possible .

He had to get there before the Dimensional Admin arrived on earth .

Zzuh-juh-juhng!

The frozen Hahn river started to melt .  The Thorn Tree had grown as if it was defying the heavens, and the ice covering it was melting .  Even the ice castle started to melt as it fell to the ground .

Hwah-roo-roo-roohk!

The Hell Hydras were crazily pouring out flame, and it was accelerating the process .

“Hoo-ooh . ”

Woojin had basically consumed all his magical energy, so he started to gather the souls of the monsters .

“Ssssp . ”

He absorbed all the souls at once, and his magical energy began to recover slowly .

Iello’s body melted, and one couldn’t even see the outline of its form .  The only thing left was the damp spot on the ground .  

Woojin unnecessarily kicked the ground .

“Didn’t I tell you I’ll kill you?”

The activation condition was troublesome, but Thrash’s Punishment was powerful .  How could an elemental body avoid the God of Destruction’s Punishment?

The monsters and the Dimensional lords, which had filled the surrounding region, were close to being settled .

He had been able to achieve his Level Up thanks to the extermination of the monsters, which caused a steady increase in his EXP .

Shwahk .

A black smoke flew to the side of Woojin .  It coalesced to form Jaenis .

[What happened to the Executioner?]

“I’m not sure . ”

There was no noticeable change .

Woojin opened his Status Window, and he carefully looked over it .  His level had changed to 99, but the only discernable change was the increase of some Stats .

“I guess this has nothing to do with Level .  Do I have to gather all of Thrash’s Set Item?”

He had hunted an incredible number of monsters, and he had amassed an incredible amount of Achievement Points .  He immediately opened his Achievement Store, and he started purchasing all the Ingredients needed to make Thrash’s Glory .

“I think I’ll be able to purchase all of them . . ”

If he could do this with only the expenditure of the Achievement Points, he didn’t have to work so hard to gather the Dimensional Points .

Jaemin was still soloing the Dimensional Battles, and his Dimensional Points was still going up… . .

“Let’s see . ”

Woojin put the purchased Ingredient Items and Aria’s Holy Item into the Combination Box .

When he pressed the Combination button, several dozen ingredients mixed to form a circlet .  It looked like a crown with a skull embedded in it .

“Thrash’s Glory . ”

Woojin took it out from his Inventory, and he put it on .

Thrash’s Glory, Protection, Punishment, Dignity and March .

He had gathered all the five defensive gears, so all the Set Effect became active .

His Control ability increased, and now he would be able to control an army five times larger than his previous Undead army .  He would also be able to summon the Death Field, which was the ultimate battlefield for the Undeads .

Aside from those powers, all the basic abilities he commanded in Alphen was also restored .

The desperate feeling he had was wiped away, but his expression eventually stiffened .

“It’s not working . ”

[The Executioner…… . ]

He had gathered all his Set Items, and he had raised his Dual Class to Level 99 .  Still, the Thrash’s Executioner hadn’t appeared .

[The earth’s Master Code… . ]

“Stop . ”

However, he blocked Jaenis from talking any further .

“Don’t say it . ”

[…… . ]

Jaenis saw Woojin’s expressionless face, and it could no longer continue its words .  Jaenis could feel Woojin’s anger settle .

Jaenis was Woojin’s teacher, and it had witnessed him on the battlefield .  If not, Janeis would have needed to see his anger with its own eyes .

“Let us slowly look for it . . ”

[I bow to the lord’s will . ]

Shwahhhk .

Jaenis’ body turned into black smoke, and it swirled out of existence .

Woojin let out a bitter laugh when he saw Seoul, which was razed to the ground .

This was **** amongst **** for him .

There were the corpses of beings, who looked similar to humans, mixed in with the monsters .  The corpses were everywhere, and there was only one being alive there .

It was a bad feeling, but it was also a familiar feeling .

“Rise . ”

At Woojin’s command, the corpses exploded as the Skeleton Warriors appeared .  He was now able to command more Skeletons than before .  He assigned the Skeleton Warriors to the command of the Death Knights, and he replenished his Undead army .

[My king . ]

Kiba came to his side, and they faced each other .

Its large tusk and the shaking red flame in its eyes revealed its concern for him .

“I’ll call you next time . ”

[I bow to the lord’s will . ]

Shwahk .

It started with Kiba, then all the other Death Knights turned into smoke as they disappeared .

Koo-oo-oohng .

The sound of impact was heard .  It was hard to tell if it landed or crashed .  He looked at the Blood Dragon .

[…… . ]

Unlike its usual self, the Blood Dragon was silent .  Woojin unsummoned it .

Weeeeng .

Blood started to evaporate, and the blood surrounding the Blood Dragon sloughed off .  Dolsae, who was in its Golem’s Heart form, revolved around Woojin before it disappeared .

Even the Bone Dragon dissolved into black smoke, and the only one left by Woojin was Bibi .

“Master .  I want to go back . ”

“…all right . ”

Woojin summoned Shing Shing, and they flew towards the Flying Fortress in the sky .  The clue to the Executioner… .

He hadn’t found it yet .

No, even if he hadn’t acquired the answer, it didn’t matter .

 

***

 

Toppler’s ship parted the black atmosphere, and it landed on dead land .

Pshhhhhh .

The thruster engine turned off as the ship landed onto earth .

Pshhhhoong .

The floor to Toppler’s ship opened as a ladder descended .

Tuhung, tuhng .

Earth’s air was no longer breathable by humans .  Dr . Toppler descended the ladder wearing a spacesuit .

Too-oohk .

When he stepped onto the surface of earth, the soldiers detached to Leone’s ship approached him .

“I received the news, Professor . ”

“We don’t have much time, captain Leone . ”

“We’ve secured the tunnel leading to the target . ”

Captain Leone had taken care of everything, so Dr . Toppler nodded his head .

“The plan is simple .  I’ll approach him .  If I’m successful in persuading him, please be ready to rescue him . ”

“Wouldn’t it be best if we pull him out immediately?”

“We can’t say for sure that he is an ally yet .   I have no idea what he’ll do .  Let me talk to him first . ”

“Mmmm .  All right .  Please hurry .  The concentration of Energy looks quite serious .  I believe the Dimensional Admin is getting ready to descend . ”

“Understood .  Where’s his current location?”

Captain Leone fiddled with the tablet attached to his wrist, and a hologram map appeared .  A bright dot could be seen .  Leone gave an answer .

“It is the Seoul Station’s 1st Exit .  The energy loss rate is 28% . ”

“Understood . ”

“What if you aren’t able to persuade him?”

“…… . ”

The Code needed for a Reset wasn’t with Iello anymore .  Kahng-woojin possessed it .  If they wanted to revert the already damaged earth, they needed him .

“We need him even if he have to force his cooperation . ”

“Mmm .  All right . ”

“Then let us start . ”

The captain shook Toppler’s hand before he went on his way .

Leone’s ship locked into the target, and Toppler used the space ship as a Dimensional Interface… .

Flying Fortress Bibi’s Castle .

 

The serious atmosphere around Kahng-woojin prevented Jung-minchan from opening his mouth .  He decided to delay the report to another time .

The battle between Iello and Kahng-woojin started not too long ago .  This was why Japan had already announced their alliance with Iello .  Now they had sent a strongly worded requests to Alandal  asking for an explanation .

Jung-minchan was in a bind, because Japan was showing signs of starting a war over this incident .  He had no choice, but to ignore it .

If he gave the report at an ill-advised time, Woojin might want to invade Japan .  They would be in a deeper mess if such a thing happened .

“Did something happen?”

“Please leave master alone”

“Yes . ”

Even Bibi sounded serious, so Minchan had to accept the situation .  

When Woojin arrived at the Flying Fortress, the first person he visited wasn’t his mother or his sister .  It was Kim-kahngchul, who had been locked up .

Ggee-eeeek .

Kim-kahngchul was just sitting in place, yet Kahng-woojin suddenly threw a punch in Kim-kahngchul’s face .

Gwah-dahng .

“Koo-oohk . ”

Kim-kahngchul unceremoniously fell over .  Woojin grabbed him by the back of his neck, and he spoke as he grinded his teeth .

“How will I be able to meet those Moon World **** . ?”

“Kook .  Even if you ask me…”

Kwah-dahng .

Kim-kahngchul was roughly thrown to the floor again, and Woojin growled at him .

“Call those **** to me . ”

“Shouldn’t you go ask this of the Holy Maiden of earth?”

When he spoke about the Holy Maiden of Earth, Woojin grabbed Kim-kahngchul’s neck .  Woojin easily raised Kim-kahngchul by his throat .  Hechoked as his legs futilely struggled .

“You want to die?”

“Koo-oohk .  E…earth’s **** is in their world… . ”

When it looked as if he could no longer breathe, Woojin put him down .  Woojin’s eyes narrowed as he perked up at his words .

“The **** of earth is on the Moon World?”

“Koo-oohk .  That is true to my knowledge . ”

“…… . ”

He knew the Executioner could sever the connection between the Dimensions .  If this was the only solution, he had to acquire it .

However, the earth’s Master Code… .  What if it was a task that required his dongsaeng?

If there was a way to save earth, while he saved his sister… . .

“Moon World… . How do I get there?”

He opened his Dimensional Store to find a Dungeon that linked towards the Moon World .  He couldn’t find it .  If one wanted to link to a location, a Dungeon was needed .

Ggee-eeek .

At that moment, an unexpected figure stepped in as he opened the door .

“……?”

“We meet again . ”

At Dr . Toppler’s greeting, Woojin’s expression remained crumpled .

“I want you to guide me to the Moon World . ”

If the **** of earth was there…  He’ll kill the **** for his dongsaeng .  He’ll acquire the Master Code .

“You can’t reach there using conventional methods . ”

“If you know what is good for you, you’ll guide me there . ”

Woojin took a step forward .  It was just a single step, but the sense of danger made Dr . Toppler flinched .  However, he held his ground .

It was the same for him and the Moon World .  They no longer had the luxury of stepping backwards .

“I’ll guide you .  However, you have to listen to my words before I do so . ”

“I don’t need to . ”

“It is related to the origin of the Dimensions .  It is also about the origin of the Dungeons, which allows travel between Dimensions .  Everything I’m telling you is the truth . ”

Woojin’s eyebrows twitched .

“The origin of Trahnet… . Don’t you want to know about it?”

“Stop talking **** .  Just tell me about the Dungeon that leads to the Moon World!”

“There are no Dungeons on the Moon World . ”

Woojin’s face crumpled further .

“You can summon me!”

It was a method that worked on Alphen .  He just had to accept the summon .

However… .

“Unfortunately, you cannot go there through a summon .  There are no portals, and it isn’t possible to use Dimensional Shifts .  However, I do know of one method that’ll work . ”

Woojin’s eyes twitched .

If there wasn’t a way, Kim-kahngchul and Toppler would be dead already .

“What is it?”

“You can log out . ”

“…… . ”

Toppler calmly accepted the fearsome glare of Kahng-woojin, and he gave a prayer inside .

“Please listen to my words before you do anything . . ”

“…… . ”

“Trahnet .  This is about origin of the transcendent travel between planets, and it is about the future of humanity . ”

Woojin took another step towards Toppler .
