All Master of 100 Floors Episode 180
39th Floor. World of Superpowers (3)
All For Equal finished all preparations and began to move.
Since quite a number of capable espers were included among them, their name became widely known in an instant.
Naturally, Kang Jun-hyeok’s contribution was the highest. The Captain couldn’t help but admire his appearance of handling more than twice the work of others.
“Truly remarkable. It’s almost a shame to call you a quasi-esper.”
The truth about espers and non-espers spread out.
As the doubts and contradictions that people harbored in their hearts were resolved, supporters began to emerge one by one. Soon their numbers gathered and protests began to break out.
“Rulers, tell us the truth!”
“Is it true that you intentionally created class divisions!”
Meaningful reactions occurred in five out of a total of twenty-four districts.
That truth also spread to Yuzhris City. The non-espers were greatly shocked.
“Our child too… can become an esper?”
“And yet they forcibly separated us?”
The ripples of truth did not stop easily. They spread like waves, extending throughout the entire city. Changmayeom reported with a joyful face.
“Protests have broken out in five districts. According to our investigation, about 3% of Psychotic City is joining our cause! It’s still weak, but it’s growing at a rapid pace!”
“That’s only natural. Truth is that powerful. Even those who had their eyes covered become revolutionaries once they realize it.”
The Captain spoke with a proud face.
“It’s not enough yet. We can’t be satisfied with just that much. Spread the truth even more widely. Make all people accept it.”
“Yes!”
All For Equal accelerated their movements even more. With the increase in supporters, they could spread the truth more easily than before.
Just two weeks.
In just two weeks, their movement became a social phenomenon. Now there were hardly any people on this planet who didn’t know about the organization called All For Equal.
If they had continued as they were, they would have been able to achieve their goal before long.
But at some point, they hit a wall.
“What, what!”
“What are you trying to do!”
Someone began attacking the protesters. The protesters resisted, but the other side didn’t back down easily either. They shouted roughly.
“Get lost!”
“Become family with non-espers? Are you insane!”
“These crazy bastards! Traitors!”
If there were those who realized the truth and advocated for equality, there were also those who still didn’t want to give up their privileges.
Not all espers lived prosperous lives. Even in their city, there were those who lived close to slums.
But in their hearts, there was one pillar of support.
The fact that non-espers were ultimately beneath them.
They had been living with that one pillar of support, but the protesters were advocating for equality. Since it denied their very values, they absolutely could not tolerate it.
It wasn’t just them. Those who opposed the protesters for social reasons and capital reasons began to appear one by one.
And the same was true for non-espers as well.
“After all the oppression we’ve suffered, now you want us to laugh and get along happily?”
“Get lost! We need to receive compensation!”
“Bloody revenge!”
There wouldn’t be many who could overcome the long history of oppression and advocate for harmony. Resistance began to arise from both sides.
The Captain wasn’t flustered. He had expected this to happen.
“Everyone. Move.”
“Yes!”
All For Equal moves quickly. They use carrots and sticks to handle people and calm them down. As a result, they were somehow able to patch things up just before the breaking point.
All For Equal succeeded once again.
And those who couldn’t overlook that sight began to move. Gujok delivered the news with a stern face.
“…The rulers of Psychotic City have begun to move.”
“Finally, they come.”
The Captain frowned.
The rulers of Psychotic City.
Their identity was shrouded in mystery. How many members there were, what kind of superpowers they possessed – everything was unknown. The Captain quickly gave orders.
“Prepare. Hide our tracks as much as possible until their identity is revealed.”
“Yes!”
Since unknown opponents had moved, they would be careful for the time being.
All For Equal’s response was very orthodox.
But unfortunately, the rulers weren’t opponents that such responses would work on.
“C-Captain! We’ve lost contact with one of our branches!”
“Over half of our spies who were dispatched have suddenly gone silent!”
“What?”
The Captain panicked.
“That can’t be! No matter how powerful the rulers are, they must be extremely few in number. They couldn’t act this quickly!”
“But…”
The situation was actually deteriorating in an instant. Kang Jun-hyeok had an expression that said he knew this would happen.
The espers of the 39th Floor weren’t that strong.
Even the top-tier espers in the city were only at the level of flamethrowers or moving furniture without touching it. They were still within normal bounds.
But the rulers were different.
They were complete espers.
They were first-tier powerhouses.
With telepathic abilities, they could read the minds of hundreds of people, and with spatial perception abilities, they could grasp spaces spanning several kilometers. Against them, who possessed power beyond cognition, resistance was impossible.
The influence that had grown massive began to shrink rapidly. The Captain ground his teeth.
“What is it?”
What exactly do they have that allows them to respond so quickly?
After pondering for a long time, the Captain made a decision.
The rulers. He needed to confirm their abilities.
He called Changmayeom, Gujok, and Kang Jun-hyeok and gave them orders.
“I’m giving you a very important mission. Go and find out the rulers’ secrets.”
“Secrets?”
“An informant brought us valuable information. In the deepest part of Psychotic City’s districts. There’s a building to the north of that place that contains secret documents. Bring them back. We need to find out the rulers’ abilities to be able to respond.”
“…Understood.”
“As the Captain orders.”
Changmayeom and Gujok nodded with stern faces. Only Kang Jun-hyeok remained calm.
They entered inside Psychotic City.
Somehow avoiding people’s gazes, they succeeded in arriving near their destination.
But the building was locked with a massive locking device. No matter how much they looked around, it was hard to find a gap. Changmayeom let out a groan.
“How do we open it?”
“Let me check if I can intervene with my ability.”
“No. There’s no need for that.”
Kang Jun-hyeok took out a nearly universal key. When he inserted it, the lock released with a clicking sound.
Kang Jun-hyeok stepped inside.
“Let’s go in.”
“…Uh, uhh.”
“Yeah.”
The inside of the building was extremely quiet. They held their breath and looked around inside. Then suddenly, a flashlight beam illuminated them.
“Who are you people.”
A guard was frowning and looking at them.
Changmayeom swallowed his breath. It was the moment Gujok was about to activate his ability to immediately knock out the guard.
“I received a request.”
Kang Jun-hyeok stepped forward.
“The rulers asked me to deliver the materials from this place.”
“…I haven’t received such notice.”
“It’s content delivered in secret. It would be best to keep your mouth shut.”
Kang Jun-hyeok spoke quietly. There was power contained in those words. The guard flinched and trembled, then was persuaded.
“Finish quickly and return.”
With quiet words, the guard turned around.
Kang Jun-hyeok spoke calmly.
“Done.”
“I’ve felt this before, but you’re actually an Esper, aren’t you?”
Changmayeom spoke in an incredulous tone.
They entered the deepest part of the building and succeeded in finding the hidden documents.
Now if they returned without problems, the mission would be complete.
It was the moment they were trying to quickly exit the building.
“Who are you guys?”
A young man blocked their path.
He was a man with a relaxed expression and an extremely leisurely face. Changmayeom quickly spoke.
“We received a request to deliver the materials from this place to the rulers.”
“Really? I see.”
The man stepped back without much comment. Changmayeom tried to pass by while sighing with relief inwardly.
“But there’s one thing I want to ask.”
“What is it?”
“I never gave such a request.”
The man smiled coldly.
At the same time, a massive chunk of metal came flying.
“Ah.”
A chunk of metal with size and thickness that would crush them and more.
It was the moment Changmayeom and Gujok sensed death.
Thud.
Kang Jun-hyeok grabbed both their shoulders and threw them backward. Instead, Kang Jun-hyeok took the hit from the metal chunk and flew backward. Changmayeom screamed.
“Jun-Esper!”
“Ah. So that guy was him? I’ve heard the alias plenty but this is the first time seeing him? Well, this will be the last time too.”
“Eeek!”
“You!”
Changmayeom manifests his ability. Objects around them float up and fly toward the man. Gujok also opens his mouth. Sound waves form ripples heading toward the man.
The man lightly flicked his finger.
Crrrrrack.
Metals from the surroundings flew over and completely crushed all the attacks. Changmayeom swallowed his breath.
“What the…!”
Changmayeom and Gujok were high-ranking Espers.
To block the attacks of such two so lightly?
They couldn’t respond. Gujok quickly shouted.
“Changmayeom! Run!”
“That won’t do.”
The man lightly stomped his foot. The building shook greatly. Changmayeom’s body, which had been stepping backward, swayed and collapsed.
Rummmmmble!
“…Huh?”
“Ah. Ah.”
They opened their mouths at the floating sensation enveloping their entire bodies.
The building itself was rising into the sky.
“Such an ability can’t be possible…”
“Why do you think it’s impossible?”
The man smiled coldly.
“Don’t measure everything by your small world. This world is vast and enormous.”
“…”
“You think this is the first time people like you have appeared? No. There have been several times. They just all got buried and disappeared. Still, you’re the first to trouble us this much. I’ll praise you for that.”
The man lightly waved his hand. The corridor began to crumple.
“So farewell.”
“Ah, aah.”
“Ah…”
It was the moment Changmayeom and Gujok sensed death.
The man’s expression suddenly changed. He hurriedly spread his hand and deployed a metal barrier. With a massive collision sound, his body was pushed back.
“Grrrrrgh!”
“Huh?”
“Jun-Esper!”
Kang Jun-hyeok, whom they thought was dead, had flown over and thrown a punch. Shock filled the eyes of the man who staggered backward.
“How…!”
“You said the world is vast and enormous, right? I’ll return those words to you.”
Kang Jun-hyeok spoke leisurely while putting strength into his fist. The man’s body was sent flying and crashed into the wall.
