Chapter 330 - Deity’s Death (3)

“Everyone, hold on for a little. After it’s finished, everything will probably go back to normal.”

“It shouldn’t be the way it was.”

“Yes, everyone will go back to a perfect and happy system.”

“That sounds a little dangerous...”

After Gaia had died and the Orb of Light (working name) was completed, the noise finally returned to the world of Chiral, which had been dominated by silence. Kang Shin-hyuk was in control of the world, but he couldn’t prevent the monsters from being born forever, and it was necessary to turn the flow of the world back by completing the Hero Universe as soon as possible. Kang Shin-hyuk, with his own hands... What was more, was he wondering about now? He was ready to do it.

“But this is a little unfair. I worked hard to join.”

“Then, I’ll give you the right to change your ID.”

“Only that much! I’ll take it!”

Lee Na-hee, anxious to change her ID from Rune Fox, asked for it, but Kang Shin-hyuk shook his head with a bloody smile.

“I have to change the membership system. I mentioned that the Hero Universe helps people grow, but some parts are too much, and some are not enough. If everyone comes into contact with it, we’ll have to tweak the current structure greatly.”

“Then, what about ID?”

“I can’t change that.”

“Hey!”

The Hero Universe had to be reworked to make it useful to all humanity. It was highly liked that Gaia, who interfered with the original Hero Universe, twisted it to make it easier to manage and interfere with the few elites. However, that was a thing of the past, and as Kang Shin-hyuk created the Hero Universe now, it would no longer be interfered with by Gaia.

“What are you talking about?”

He briefly explained it because he didn’t have much time, and most around him looked at him blankly like Lee Na-hee. Kang Shin-hyuk quieted down instead of trying to explain more. What more could he say?

“Know it is. You won’t even remember it anyway.”

Kang Shin-hyuk, who tried to organize the situation as simply as possible, was also at a loss to explain the current situation. It if proceeded according to his idea, the moment it was completed, memories of the previous Gaia system and the Hero Universe would be reorganized not only for the existing members but also for all humanity. Unless they could read the previous world line, there would be no confusion.

“If you create the Hero Universe, everything will be solved, right? Gaia’s power will be added to it.”

“Yes, well, this isn’t enough.”

As soon as the battle was over, he had to shove Tsukuyo, who was sticking to him, away. No matter how much Gaia’s power had been condensed together, it couldn’t replace the living Gaia. Furthermore, he wanted to create a system that existed in a realm beyond Gaia. It couldn’t be created with only one power.

[How about adding the treasure from our world? There’s the orb from the volcanic spirit!]

“Right.”

He nodded as if he had been waiting for Kwati’s words. Not only the Orb of Nephritis, but the orbs of different attributes he had. In fact, that was why Gaia’s body had been compressed into an orb. The Orb of Light, the Dark Spirit Pearl, the Shinfeng Orb, the Orb of Nephritis, the Orb of Water, the Orb of Earth, and even the Great Heavenly Spirit, which was one of the reasons for this. If he brought out the synergy of the seven orbs to the limit, he could create the basis of a system that supported all the worlds.

“But, of course, not here.”

Gaia subscribed to the Hero Universe with the ID Halo and managed various worlds, both directly and indirectly. But her body had always stayed in that sub-world of light, not because she was a coward, but simply because she couldn’t leave it.

“It’s ridiculous to build a system to manage the entire universe in this Chiral world.”

Chiral had already been altered by Gaia once; if it accepted the aftermath of another enormous system, who knows what could happen.

“And the same is true of other worlds.”

“Why Gaia never revealed her main body... Today, everyone realized the reason.”

Gaia was a complete and flawless being buried in her own world. However, because of the double spy named Janus that she planted, acting only for her own desire, an uninvited visitor named Kang Shin-hyuk was brought in. With the intentions of several transcendental people and the timely support of the Hero Universe administrator, Gaia was sentenced to death. Without the conviction that he could create a more objective and perfect administrator, Janus would’ve collapsed.

“So we need a different world. One that transcends the boundaries of time and space, only for the system and not communicating with other places.”

Until now, there was only one such world, and that was Gaia’s sub-world. However, there was one more now, and it was the world where Gaia had been driven out for her greed. Ironically, she, who wanted to become the universe’s only ruler, became the last and great piece for Kang Shin-hyuk’s work.

“Anvil, are you really going alone?”

“Junior...”

“Anvil.”

All the remaining members, especially the female ones close to him, hung onto Kang Shin-hyuk. Perhaps the task wouldn’t be simple and might take a long time, but he didn’t have such a ridiculous harem.

“I’m glad the administrator can’t look into this space.”

Kang Shin-hyuk, muttering that joke, then laughed bloodily while looking at the many people around him.

“It’s a world beyond the boundaries of time and space. Maybe it won’t take that long.”

“But it might take a ridiculously long time.”

“You don’t need my runes? Junior, you can take me too.”

“Wait, Anvil. There’s a woman on Earth with your child. Are you going to leave her as is?”

“Yes, grandfather! Make me pregnant before you go- kahak!”

Civil war broke out between those who couldn’t let him go. Honestly, fighting each other felt less like a burden to him, so he decided not to stop them.

“Yes, junior. What are you going to do about unnie?”

Lee Na-hee had worry in her eyes as she asked that question. However, he was heading to a place where his safety wasn’t ensured, so he couldn’t take Claire.

“There is a means of communication.”

“How? It’s a completely disconnected place.”

“Because I have Vita.”

“Ah.”

Vita had been in the subspace all this time, and she would remain safe there until he confirmed it was safe where he was going. But if it were, he could communicate with Claire through her. The spiritual connection between the two was incomparably deeper than that of Kang Shin-hyuk and Onyx, and there were times he wondered if Claire was talking through Vita. Real-time communication might not be possible, but at least exchanging messages wouldn’t be too difficult.

“Then I’ll go.”

He already bid his farewells to the other members. Although he knew he didn’t have a lot of time, he made sure to say goodbye to each of the VIP members who remained by his side until the end (and the members particularly close to him, like Lee Na-hee). Now, the orb that had swallowed Gaia’s branches was exuding mysterious but auspicious energy. Until now, it was impossible to understand, but now he could understand and handle mana, one of the fundamentals of the world; he had the confidence to create a door to the world connected with that orb.

“Wait, Anvil. Are you going like this? You won’t say today is the last meeting, right?”

[I hope you won’t say you’ll never come back.]

“I’m not Gaia.”

Kang Shin-hyuk smiled bitterly.

“When you come to your senses, there will be a fair and perfect administrator that will take care of everyone.”

“...It’s not very reliable.”

Tsukuyo, who had been blocked by the administrator 3333 times and prevented from having a strong relationship with Kang Shin-hyuk, pouted and muttered to herself. Then Janus, who looked liberated after completing the Godslayer’s task, tilted her head at him.

“The administrator doesn’t interfere... Why?”

“He’s interfered a lot so far.”

“Isn’t that your fault?”

Tsukuyo didn’t respond. Seeing Janus and Tsukuyo staring off, the other members were clearly thinking the bulletin board confrontations were right there in front of them.

“Now, I’ll be leaving too, so everyone go. It’s not good to stay long in this world.”

As Kang Shin-hyuk waved his hand, a gate that would allow them to escape formed. The gate, created by his power, was of a truly strange nature that adapted to the flow of the world while interfering with its logic.

“How come Anvil can learn magic so easily?”

“Miyang, it’s too late, so go quickly.”

“There are too many competitors now.”

“Who are you competing with?”

“Anvil, please do it as soon as possible! Before someone blames you for Gaia’s death!”

“Ah, I can really help out our junior... Guys, Eli, don’t push!”

While chatting noisily, the other members went through the gate. Some, including Tsukuyo, wished to stay until the end, but he drove them all away, saying it wouldn’t take long. In an instant, calm had come over the world of Chiral. Only then did Kang Shin-hyuk relax his control so monsters could be born again.

“Oh, I have to work quickly. This is a big deal.”

“Don’t worry, grandfather.”

He heard someone else’s voice. It was none other than Janus.

“You.”

“Yes. I mean, I missed your face.”

If she was a master of power over Tsukuyo, it was her ability to deceive Kang Shin-hyuk’s attention and hide. At least, she thought she hid.

“I will prevent the world from perishing before that.”

“What a ridiculous sound.”

“It’s okay because I have Loki.”

“Kahk.”

Loki also remained, still weakened after losing the Chiral. For reference, the way Janus hid was by using Loki’s power.

“It’s because of Gaia’s mischief that they moved with him anyway. Don’t worry and go home.”

“Oh, I hate it, but if I don’t, Janus will kill me... I can’t help it.”

Loki shrugged his shoulders in disgust but didn’t rebel any further against Janus. Kang Shin-hyuk was curious about what had happened between the two.

“Yes, then go back. Before that.”

Kang Shin-hyuk took out the [Lullaby] infused with his spiritual power and threw it to Janus.

“I’ll only leave it to you until I come home. If you have it, it’ll help you control the monsters.”

“Grandpa... Yes. Come on. Thank you so much.”

Janus received Lullaby with a sullen smile. She was more proficient in spiritual power than him, so she quickly learned how to handle it.

“Then.”

He made another gate appear by using the Great Heavenly Spirit. The gate was hazy, so it was impossible to explore even with his spiritual power. He didn’t doubt that Shin Eunah was in it, but he felt like he’d have to wander for quite a while. Swallowing back his saliva, he gathered his confidence and took a step forward. Just before he went through, unable to stand his curiosity, he turned his head back.

“So, what is Loki after all?”

“The last dragon that barely survived by turning into a human before being killed by me.”

“Hey!”

Indeed, it seemed that they had an odd relationship after all.

“What about your heart?”

“Oh, I tried to get it before, but I’ve already given up. Still, if his whole body is condensed, it could become a new core for the Gdoslayer...”

“Hey, ahh!”

“...When you return, let’s think about the core of the Godslayer.”

Loki tried to hide, and Janus chased him.

Kang Shin-hyuk turned away and threw himself into the gate before him.
