I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 204
5th World League (4)
It wasn’t just once.
Flash, flash, flash!
He raised the sword he had lowered and struck down again, repeating this motion.
Soon.
Crrrrrrrr!
The crack that had been drawn deepened.
The world began to flip as if it had lost its center.
Kuagagagagagaga!
A massive barrier split open on both sides around the crack.
The sky bent, the ground vibrated intensely along the fissure, then split into two pieces and separated completely.
A divided world.
Energy released from the underground core erupted to the surface, destroying the atmosphere as various minerals and metals glowed and scattered into space.
From that tremendous explosive wave.
All players’ vision went dark for an instant.
Only one thing.
System windows appeared streaming down!
….
[South Korea, Baek Jin-woo 467 kills!]
[South Korea, Baek Jin-woo 468 kills!]
[South Korea, Baek Jin-woo 469 kills!]
….
All summoned creatures were reverse-summoned, and players were ejected!
That’s right.
Aso had succeeded in cutting through the Battle Royal world.
And perfectly at that!
[The number of remaining players is 0!]
[Ending the Battle Royal!]
Originally, Battle Royal ends when 100 players remain.
But?
This time was an exception.
‘Wow.’
Baek Jin-woo was also amazed inwardly.
Aso, this…
At this level, hasn’t he already surpassed Pokryong?
Until now, among all summoned creatures, he thought Pokryong was the most overpowered, but that changed today.
Aso.
This guy is the most overpowered.
Watching the world split apart, he was overpowered enough to make Mayeo’s fur stand on end.
[The player who recorded the most kills in this Battle Royal is ‘Baek Jin-woo’ from South Korea (512 kills).]
Wow.
512 kills.
It was a completely different dimension from when he barely managed 50 kills with Rachel in the previous league.
[‘Baek Jin-woo’ player will receive a ‘Hidden Reward’.]
Yes, yes.
According to Rachel, this hidden reward is the same every time.
5 Ultimate Summoning Scrolls.
He had received them last time too.
He’d check this later.
[Moving all players back to the Arena.]
[A 1-hour rest period is given until team formation.]
[Players are requested to wait in the Arena.]
Paaaat!
As the darkened vision brightened again.
“Guildmaster!”
“Hyung-nim!”
“…What exactly happened?”
Guild Members approached with confused expressions.
Murmur murmur.
The entire Arena was buzzing, so other Rankers must have been bewildered too.
They were doing fine when suddenly the world collapsed… It’s understandable.
“…Don’t tell me.”
“Did you use Aso, hyung-nim?”
“The world split apart! Then it has to be Aso. Guildmaster, but then we’d die too!”
What are you saying.
That’s why I gave you time.
Baek Jin-woo shrugged his shoulders once and slumped into the provided chair.
They’d find out what happened soon enough anyway.
They could bring phones into the Arena, and they’d soon see the worldwide broadcasts going crazy.
“Wow, it’s really true… This hyung-nim!”
“Aso’s video is already up!”
“…It’s complete chaos?”
After the Battle Royal ended.
The world was truly in chaos.
– Wh, what on earth…!
It started with the dazed MC’s appearance.
Not a single commentator from any country maintained their composure.
Everyone was frozen with their mouths agape.
– D, did… did the world just split apart?
– No matter how you look at it, yes. It seems Aso exploded that world’s planet with a wooden sword.
The highlight video kept repeating.
Bang, bang, bang! Aso striking down and the world splitting in two.
└ This is insane…!
└ Split the world with a wooden sword?
└ ????
└ What did I just see?
└ Did I see it right? Are we all seeing the same thing?
└ Does that even make sense?
└ What kind of summoned creature is that…
Aso’s Ilseum Cheonji (One Flash Heaven and Earth) shown to The Public for the first time!
└ Anyway… Aso did that, right?
└ …Fucking bug?
└ I heard rumors that Baek Jin-woo’s summoned creatures were originally bug summoned creatures…
└ That’s not bug level!
Bug.
Hack.
It was an absurd sight that deserved such expressions.
A skill that destroys common sense!
It was a balance-breaking skill that wouldn’t even be handled in movies or novels.
└ Was Battle of Summoners originally a shitty game?
└ Yeah
└ Both Pokryong and Aso… Baek Jin-woo is really… Ugh, I’m so jealous.
└ They’re both cute too;;
└ For real lol
Experts also came out to discuss the phenomenon.
– I’m an astronomer. That scene, he really did split a planet. Look at the screen. When the world splits in half, do you see that energy wave spreading out? It’s due to internal pressure release from physical force penetrating the crust. Energy released from the center rushes to the surface, causing compressed mantle to burst out and destroying the surrounding atmospheric layers.
– That’s right. Here. Do you see the red and white light visible between the split fault lines? That’s high-temperature plasma and radioactive material released from the core. It’s absurd even as I’m saying it. To think we could witness something like this with our own eyes.
Gamma rays, X-rays…
I don’t know how they can tell just from watching the video, but that’s why they’re experts, right?
└ Wow.
└ If he really split a planet… wouldn’t the 70th floor of the Tower of Trials be doable now?
└ For real
└ We have to admit it now. Baek Jin-woo is humanity’s hope.
└ Lololol Oh! Rachel’s reaction is up.
└ Where?
└ Where! Where!
As time passed, reactions from Rachel, Jenos, and Hikaru also circulated as GIFs.
They were sitting and resting when.
“Hm?”
“Uh…?”
“Huh?”
Then they got blindsided.
Their expressions showed a mix of bewilderment and indignation.
After the promised hour, just as they were about to start moving in earnest, they were watching the world collapse.
└ Lololololololol
└ So unfair lol
└ Did you see Rachel’s expression?
└ The world has changed so much… To see Rachel like that. It’s precious, so precious!
This chaotic situation.
The national teams from various countries at the Arena were also checking it out one by one.
Looking at the screens, everyone had shocked expressions.
‘Crazy.’
‘This is what he meant by showing us?’
‘No wonder the world suddenly tilted… He split the world with a wooden sword?’
‘This is impossible…’
At the same time, they lost their motivation.
This is just…
It’s not even at a level where they could compete.
It seemed better for their mental health to just surrender the moment they faced South Korea.
It wasn’t just the regular national teams who were shocked.
Rachel, Jenos, and Hikaru were also surprised.
“What the hell…”
“Hmm.”
“What do you think, Rachel?”
Jenos approached her and asked.
“About what?”
“Do you think this league is meaningful?”
Swoosh.
Jenos’s gaze turned toward the Korean National Team that was drawing all the attention.
“They’re going to win anyway, so instead of wasting time, how about we quickly form an assault team?”
“Hehe.”
Rachel smiled.
“I’m absolutely in favor.”
The league?
She had no desire for it.
The S-grade summoned creature was going to be Baek Jin-woo’s anyway, wasn’t it?
Currently, her mind was focused more on climbing the Tower of Trials than on England’s interests.
“Hikaru, what about you?”
“Me? Well.”
Hikaru also shrugged his shoulders.
“It would actually be more comfortable that way. No pressure either.”
In the past, he at least thought about somehow competing against Rachel…
Looking at Jinugod, such thoughts don’t even occur to him.
How could you fight a summoned creature that splits worlds?
At that level, there’s no control, runes, or anything else.
“Then… let’s go.”
Rachel nodded as if she had made up her mind.
“Let’s go negotiate.”
Before group formation.
The three emperors gathered at the Korean National Team’s spot.
When they came over, the Guild Members tactfully gave them space.
“So, you want to end the league quickly?”
“Yeah.”
Rachel, with her arms crossed, spoke firmly.
“I’m not interested in the league. I just want to climb the Tower quickly and see the world beyond. And prevent destruction while we’re at it.”
Right.
Rachel had always been like that.
That’s why she clashed with Moscow Man too.
“Anyway, the national representatives here will all follow with just one word from me. If we just surrender to each other as soon as we meet, it’ll end quickly… and we can secure more time to challenge the Tower of Trials.”
“That’s true.”
Baek Jin-woo agreed.
Anyway, from now on he was planning to slice through everything with Doldoli, so it was pretty much a foregone conclusion even without watching.
MVP?
Baek Jin-woo could easily take it.
Everyone else surrenders and only Baek Jin-woo’s side fights a few times, then it’s over.
“Then let’s do that. I’ll also share some of the techniques from the rewards I receive with the entire world. As for oil and gold… our guild can take those.”
Rather than just making them surrender unconditionally, it felt better to give appropriate compensation.
He had to look at the whole world from a big picture perspective, because looking only domestically…
Honestly, isn’t South Korea too cramped a land?
“If you do that, it’ll be easier to persuade them. We’re also thinking of sharing 50% of what we receive.”
Then the ambiguous countries would have no choice but to accept.
They weren’t going to get anything anyway, so if you ask “Will you surrender if we give you a little something?” they’ll all do it!
“Good, that.”
Baek Jin-woo nodded.
“Make it happen.”
They shouldn’t be dissatisfied with countries including the assault team taking more rewards.
We shoulder enormous obligations as much as we enjoy rights.
‘Climbing the Tower.’
The very act of risking our lives for humanity is something they should be grateful for.
“Oh, and.”
Rachel, who had been walking away, turned around.
“…Honestly, isn’t Aso a bit too much? I was really dumbfounded watching that.”
Hearing that complaint, Baek Jin-woo chuckled.
– B-breaking news!
– The representatives of the major summoning nations have just reached an agreement!
– All players participating in the World League have agreed 100%. They’re saying they’ll quickly surrender, with South Korea taking 1st place, England 2nd, United States 3rd, and Japan 4th!
– Yes, that’s right! It seems they’re doing this for faster conquest of the Tower of Trials. The average duration of a league is one month, and since the results are already obvious, they think it’s a waste of time!
– Personally, I think it’s a good decision.
– I agree!
It was a first.
A tournament that proceeded this quickly.
Group matches went by rapidly, and the tournament bracket progressed swiftly too!
– You know what’s interesting?
– What?
– Because of this, the system is also scheduling matches faster. Really… at times like this, it feels like we’re dealing with a thinking organism, you know?
Everything ended in just one week.
The 5th World League.
Champion nation: South Korea!
And the MVP?
Naturally, it was Baek Jin-woo.
[The World League is now ending.]
[Accordingly, the Day of Peace will automatically end.]
[From now on, players can use summoned creatures for combat purposes in the exterior!]
The system also announced the conclusion.
[The champion nation is South Korea!]
[Rewards for each nation will be distributed according to ranking.]
[Reward details will only be revealed to participating players.]
The rewards came in exactly the same as during the 4th World League.
Each one.
3 Ultimate Summoning Scrolls.
3 tons of gold bars.
3 Rune Seal Scrolls.
Pure Genetic Summoning Scroll.
Random Skill Summoning Scroll.
And in Baek Jin-woo’s case?
[Congratulations!]
[You have been selected as the World League MVP!]
[MVP is a qualification given to only one player who led their nation to victory.]
[Your reward is arriving.]
[You have obtained a ‘100% Summoning Scroll’ (S-Grade)!]
[However, a specific offering is required to use this item.]
Wow.
A guaranteed ticket that could summon an S-Grade summoned creature with 100% certainty had appeared.
