I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 300

Savior of the Storm (3)

Encountering the Reincarnation Bureau was an opportunity, not a crisis.

After leaving hell, Baek Jin-woo spent about another month digging traps and waiting.

Sure enough.

Perhaps feeling that twenty souls weren’t enough, he was able to catch the Lion Generals engaging in their foolish antics again.

– Aso! I’m counting on you again this time!

– Got it.

Aso’s movement technique had now reached such mastery that even transcendents of the same Standing rank would never detect her stealth.

After filming all the evidence and bringing 17 souls to the front of First Hell again.

“Stop right there.”

Baek Jin-woo and Aso ambushed them at the scene.

The footage was important, but those guys themselves would serve as crucial evidence.

– What the!

– Who are you!

Clang, claaang!

The Lion Generals reflexively drew their weapons.

“Who am I? I’m a Lion General under King Jingwang. Those souls aren’t in the trial records, so why are you taking them to First Hell?”

– Ahem, ahem!

One of them coughed loudly with an uncomfortable expression.

– If you’re a Lion General, act like one and do your job. Right now we’re carrying out a classified mission under orders from above.

“A classified mission? You mean the mission where Cho Gang, Song Je, O Gwan, and Byeon Seong break the rules and try to frame King Jingwang?”

– What! You knew everything!

“Of course, I’ve finished filming it all. On top of that, I’m planning to hand all of you over to the Reincarnation Bureau.”

– That won’t happen. You’ll die first before that! Attack!

– Kill him!

Swoooosh!

Five Lion Generals gripped their respective weapons and launched themselves forward.

In the past this would have been quite pressuring, but now they just looked adorable.

At that moment, Aso disappeared from her spot as if vanishing and appeared in front of them.

– What the…

They saw it.

A brown blunt weapon approaching at tremendous speed.

Before they could even recognize what it was, their vision went pitch black.

They felt a dull sensation on their faces.

Simultaneously.

THWAAAACK!

A massive striking sound hit their eardrums.

– Gaaaah!

From that single blow, they spun around a couple times before collapsing to the ground.

Not just one, but all five of them.

– Ridiculous.

Aso snorted.

– Kill Father with just that level of skill?

Swish, swish.

She wiped her wooden sword as if something unpleasant had gotten on it.

– Father, I did well, right?

“Yes, our Aso. Well done.”

Baek Jin-woo ruffled Aso’s hair.

He always thought this, but.

Damn.

Our Pokryong Aso is love itself.

– Master, I’ll bind them.

Hunkyo tightly bound the Lion Generals who were convulsing on the ground, and Mayeo used magic to bind them once more perfectly.

Next to them, the 17 souls were trembling.

They probably thought they’d been caught and would fall into an even more terrible hell.

“Wh-what is happening here?”

“What will happen to us?”

“Those guys said they’d take us to heaven, so we just followed them…”

‘What should I do.’

For a moment, greed arose.

The greed to use Doldoli to free them immediately.

Doing so would certainly benefit them too.

‘But that won’t do.’

The Myeongye guys were incredibly meticulous, recording everything in ledgers from the entrance of Samdo River.

If someone didn’t show up for trial after time passed, an alarm would automatically sound and they’d find them somehow.

Especially after being warned once by the Reincarnation Bureau, he couldn’t do that again.

Even if he did it, he’d have to do it properly in secret later.

“Hunkyo.”

– Yes, Master.

“Take them back to Samdo River.”

– I shall obey your command.

He could hear the souls’ cries begging to be sent to heaven, but Baek Jin-woo deliberately ignored them.

‘I’m sorry, but.’

There’s no such thing as heaven in this terrible place, everyone.

Baek Jin-woo handed over the new footage and the five Lion Generals directly to the Reincarnation Bureau.

– Heh, heheheheh!

The one who received them burst into satisfied laughter.

– Quite impressive! I wasn’t expecting much, but you handled it very cleanly.

With this level of evidence, they could compete even if the Great Kings came at them aggressively.

King Yeom-ra wasn’t a fool, after all.

– From now on, this is beyond your jurisdiction. King Jingwang and I will collaborate well to handle it, so you prepare to transfer to the Yunhoe Supervision Office soon.

“I have one question.”

– I don’t usually take questions well, but since your contribution is commendable, I’ll make a special exception.

“If the four Great Kings’ wrongdoing is acknowledged and they’re dethroned, won’t you take the position of Great King? Then who will take your current position?”

– Heheheh, trials for transcendents at the Great King level take a minimum of 100 years. I’ll have to keep doing this job during that time, so don’t worry.

“…100 years.”

Baek Jin-woo’s jaw dropped.

As expected of the universe, the scale of time was extraordinary.

‘It was a hopeless situation anyway.’

Even if he followed Jin Gwang, he would have had to wait 100 years.

He didn’t want that.

No matter how slowly time flowed in the universe, Baek Jin-woo’s identity was still that of an Earthling.

He wanted to return quickly and see his family, Yu Ji-a, and the members.

“Understood. Then I’ll wait until orders come down.”

– Huhu, yes. Go on then.

– No, what do you mean by that!

Jin Gwang was absolutely furious beyond belief.

– By what authority does the Reincarnation Bureau take you away! You belong to me!

Ugh.

Baek Jin-woo felt goosebumps rise.

‘Mine, my ass.’

It did feel good to be acknowledged though.

After all, both Jin Gwang and the Reincarnation Officer wanted to take him.

But that was all there was to it.

Both of them were enemies who would eventually have to die by Baek Jin-woo’s hand.

He had no intention of laughing and harmonizing with those who created things like Yeonok Heukryeon to build their power.

– I brought him here, and everything about touching that soul in hell was just following my orders!

“That’s true, but I did commit a crime.”

– What crime?

“I was curious about hell, so I bribed the demon soldiers and took hold of the whip myself. As you know, I haven’t been in hell for very long…”

– This is insane. You gave bribes just to do such a trivial thing? If you were going to do that, you should have just told me!

“I was short-sighted. I’m sorry.”

Bow.

Baek Jin-woo lowered his head.

– Strange. You don’t feel sorry at all.

Huh.

As expected of a transcendent-grade being.

He easily saw through such feelings.

“You’re right. To be honest, I don’t understand why I did wrong. But if that’s the law of Myeongye, then I must follow it.”

– Ahem.

Jin Gwang looked at him with narrowed eyes, but Baek Jin-woo deliberately ignored it.

He only wanted to quickly go to the Supervision Office.

– Fine. It can’t be helped. Doing troublesome work there and building your abilities will be good for the future, so I’ll endure it. Go. Go build your abilities, and if the trial results turn out well, I’ll give you the position of Myeonggwan as promised.

“Thank you.”

He was truly grateful for that promise.

Like the Reincarnation Officer, Myeonggwan was also a high position that could become a candidate if the Great King’s seat became vacant!

Later, when circumstances weren’t favorable, ascending to that position could be a good choice.

A few days later.

Baek Jin-woo entered as a member of the Yunhoe Supervision Office.

There were quite a few transcendents there too, and the positions were divided into three.

Sachal, who inspected hell and the Samdo River sites.

Jipsa, who handled record keeping.

Heonsa, who found rule violators.

– Baek Jin-woo, where would you like to work?

The Reincarnation Officer asked with crossed arms.

He thought they would just stick him anywhere, but apparently they were giving him a choice.

‘Setting aside Heonsa, I definitely need the Sachal or Jipsa positions.’

He would need to do Sachal work to secretly liberate souls in the Samdo River or hell.

And he would need to do Jipsa work to tamper with records afterward and plan the perfect crime.

“Would it be possible to do all the work together?”

– What?

The Reincarnation Officer tilted his head.

– All three positions have so much dirty and complex work that they’re rumored to be avoided in Myeongye, and you want to do all three?

“That’s right.”

– There’s no rule against it, but I don’t recommend it. How can someone who can’t properly do one thing try to do three together?

“As you know, my law is Transcendent Lord.”

– Ah?

“I can currently command ten summoned creatures, and I plan to place summoned creatures in appropriate positions accordingly.”

– I didn’t think of that. It’s certainly a rare law. Your words make sense. Then which summoned creatures will you place where?

“I’ll organize it for you.”

Baek Jin-woo quickly organized.

He was going to do all the work together anyway.

This was just a nominal division.

Ramba → Jipsa

Hunkyo → Heonsa

Pokryong → Jipsa

Jakgeo → Heonsa

Dampir → Jipsa

Doldol → Sachal

Runde → Jipsa

Aso → Sachal

Mayeo → Jipsa

Destruction → Heonsa

The Reincarnation Officer looked at it and nodded.

– Good. It’s admirable that you’re trying to work sincerely without slacking off right after arriving. Do well. I might give you a special reward.

“Thank you.”

A few days later, the incident where they tried to frame Jin Gwang was brought to trial under the Reincarnation Officer’s leadership, and Baek Jin-woo gradually became familiar with the Supervision Office’s work.

The biggest purpose of coming here was soul extraction.

But he couldn’t try it right away.

Only when he learned the work and became proficient in everything could he do it without being caught.

For the first month, he really learned the work while examining whether he could actually manipulate the records.

Mayeo let out a scream.

– There are so many records that just properly examining them is work itself! My eyes feel like they’re going to fall out!

How on earth do they record and manage all those endless souls…

Even though it was systematized to some extent, the amount was terrifyingly vast.

– But don’t worry! Who do you think this witch is! I can easily handle this much with sorcery!

As expected of utility Mayeo!

Making difficult tasks very easy was exactly Mayeo’s strength.

So Baek Jin-woo didn’t do Jipsa work.

He just went on inspections with Aso and Doldoli.

The good thing about Sachal was that he could freely travel not only to the Samdo River but also to hell.

The only place forbidden to Sachal was the Yeonok Heukryeon factory.

Two months passed like that, then four months.

“Everyone.”

Baek Jin-woo gathered his summoned creatures.

“Today’s the day.”

Today!

Baek Jin-woo decided to risk his life and try liberating souls in hell.

In a way that wouldn’t be caught by anyone and wouldn’t leave records.

– Father, I’ll keep watch.

Swoosh swoosh!

Aso confidently swung his wooden sword.

– Just tell me who it is before liberating the soul! I’m familiar with the record system now, so I can quickly find and delete them!

Mayeo was in charge of the records.

And.

– Kiiiii!

Doldoli raised his scythe with the most enthusiastic expression here!

The first start was from the First Hell, Knife Mountain Hell.

“Sob, please! Please, stop!”

“Kyaaaaaaak!”

Using inspection as an excuse, he approached those suffering on Knife Mountain and asked.

“Tell me who you are. If you do, I will free you from your suffering.”

“Is, is that really true?”

“There’s no time. Just give me the same information you gave to the Scribes when you entered the Samdo River. If you can’t think of it right away, the opportunity goes to someone else.”

“I, I am Ju Jin! I was a scholar studying astronomy in a country called Baek, but I was unjustly executed for suggesting that the earth was round.”

What?

Another world’s version of Galileo Galilei?

If that’s true, he’s truly pitiful.

“Mayeo.”

– Found it, meow! It’s in the records! I’ll erase it right away, meow!

It was like this.

After opening the Underworld Palace records, he drew a line and wrote one of two things next to it.

Reincarnation Complete.

Record Invalid

Reincarnation Complete meant they were sent back to their home planet by the authority of a Great King-level official.

Record Invalid meant it was erased due to a Scribe’s mistake.

If either accumulated too much, it would raise suspicion, but since there were so many souls, it seemed unlikely to be discovered for a while.

When Mayeo erased it?

Swoosh!

Doldoli would liberate them with his scythe.

“Ah, ahhhhh! Thank you! Thank you!”

And that soul would give energy to Doldoli as thanks before disappearing.

Truly a perfect plan.

Baek Jin-woo had liberated nearly thousands of souls over another month.

And yet?

There was no discovery.

“Doldol.”

– Kiii!

“Now we can start picking up the pace, don’t you think?”

It was definitely confirmed to be safe through multiple attempts.

Now it was time to begin liberating souls in earnest.
