I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 303
Flying Star (1)
At the very moment when Myo Wang was preparing the Star Heaven Great Migration technique.
Baek Jin-woo was on a northwestern planet of the Underworld.
‘Nice scenery.’
This place was famous for being one of the most scenic spots in the Underworld, with naturally formed terraced cliff areas that were truly exquisite.
Steps made of transparent black obsidian curved in winding lines, and below flowed a river that sparkled like a galaxy!
‘Wow.’
Rustle, rustle!
Baek Jin-woo sat there reading a book called the Records of Underworld Reincarnation.
He had found it at the headquarters of the Reincarnation Supervisory Bureau, and it contained the complete history from the origins of the Underworld.
Since his goal was to eventually take control of this Underworld, he was studying the Underworld first!
‘I can’t just be playing around.’
For the past three years.
The summoned creatures had made endless efforts in their respective positions.
They basically performed supervisory duties while simultaneously absorbing the Simhaekkgu they received as salary.
‘I need to become stronger.’
The more he learned about this universe, the more endless it seemed, so he hadn’t decided exactly how strong he needed to become, but…
‘Let’s just become strong enough to safely protect Earth.’
To do that, he needed to build a powerful force within this Local Galaxy that wouldn’t be challenged by transcendent beings.
There would probably be even higher realms beyond that, but…
‘Honestly, haven’t I done enough already?’
What was the point of endless growth?
Baek Jin-woo fundamentally loved games.
Hardcore games like Battle of Summoners.
Later, when he retired, he wanted to live sweetly with Yu Ji-a and enjoy playing difficult games.
How about investing a massive amount of money to have the most perfect and difficult game on all of Earth created?
Just as Baek Jin-woo was simultaneously daydreaming and reading.
[You have ascended to the 2-star cultivation realm of the Star Plate level.]
Wow.
An exclamation burst out naturally.
“Our Doldoli.”
You’ve grown again today?
How long has it been since reaching the Star Plate level, and you’re already at 2-star?
At this rate, won’t you really advance to the Crack level soon?
The Underworld was absolutely sweet beyond measure.
Central Underworld.
On the planet closest to where the core was located, the Hall of the Underworld Throne had been built.
It was the palace where Yama, the supreme judge of the Underworld, resided, and the center of judgment and order in the Underworld!
Grooooo…!
The gaze of Yama, who had reached the 7-star True Law realm among the Crack levels, turned downward.
Below him, Yun-hoe Sa was respectfully bowing his head.
– I hear the Supervisory Bureau has been quite active lately.
– That’s correct, Your Majesty. The Supervisory Bureau’s newfound vitality is largely thanks to Baek Jin-woo, who joined as a newcomer this time.
Yama’s eyebrows rose very slightly.
– Baek Jin-woo, the one who provided evidence for the trial of the Four Kings this time?
– That’s correct.
– Impressive. He hasn’t been in the Underworld very long, yet he’s already making such a name for himself. His contribution was significant in catching the traces before the Ten Kings could make their move. If we had been just a little later, forget evidence – Jin Gwang might have been framed with false charges.
– Does this mean the trial is proceeding smoothly?
Greed flickered in Yun-hoe Sa’s eyes.
It couldn’t be helped.
Only when they were deposed would the position of Great King become available.
– That’s right. Right now we don’t have the capacity as we’re preparing for the Star Circle Exchange War, but before long we will judge them definitively.
The Star Circle Exchange War was a kind of event where executives from various forces in the nearby universe gathered for harmony.
The Underworld was also one of the major forces, so participation was mandatory.
Politics there formed alliances between forces and could also open the floodgates of hostility…
Not participating would result in considerable losses.
– The more we dig, the more appalling it becomes. I told them my faction was making the Underworld sick… Tsk.
‘Heh, hehehe.’
Yun-hoe Sa inwardly cheered with delight.
At this rate, it really might not even take 100 years.
The investigation would need to be completed, but a conclusion could come within 10 years.
‘Certainly, Baek Jin-woo is the real deal.’
Even the transcendent beings in the Supervisory Bureau respected him.
He apparently patrolled almost every time and brought back all the records to organize everything himself.
Even though the summoned creatures helped him, he did all the work that a hundred transcendent beings should do by himself?
And he apparently never rested.
‘I should give him greater authority this time.’
Since he had reached the Star Plate level anyway, let’s create a position called Deputy Reincarnation Officer and seat him there.
And that wasn’t all?
If he truly ascended to the position of Great King, he could even recommend him for the position of Reincarnation Officer.
Of course, only if he wanted it.
‘For now, I need to slowly coax him so he doesn’t burn out from overworking.’
Yun-hoe Sa had no idea in his dreams that Baek Jin-woo was working hard to devour the souls of the Samdo River and Hell.
Myo Wang’s technique was both secretive and simple.
He and four Star Plate level Myo Clan members surrounded the solar system and succeeded in quickly moving it without being detected by the Underworld’s transcendent beings.
– It’s all finished. Your Earth will now be under the management of the Myo Clan within the territory of Myo Shin-gung.
These were the words of Myo Wang, who had appeared after briefly going somewhere.
The members were bewildered.
“Already?”
“Well, I didn’t feel anything…”
– Of course.
Myo Wang smiled wickedly.
From his perspective, they were beings inferior to insects, so dealing with them was bothersome, but he was at least smiling because they were Baek Jin-woo’s acquaintances.
– The Star Heaven Great Migration technique maintains all the physical laws composing the solar system and the relative positions between celestial bodies exactly as they were, while instantly changing only the solar system’s position within the vast coordinate system of the universe. You cannot help but feel not even the slightest change or impact.
The members, especially Eila, couldn’t hide their amazement at that ability, which could rightfully be called divine.
– Anyway, I’ll give you exactly three days now.
Myo Wang looked around at the Earth members carefully.
– Within that time, select the personnel to be evaluated and bring them to this place. Those with sufficient potential will be given Simhaekkgu appropriate to their abilities.
Yu Ji-a cautiously spoke up.
“Is there perhaps a limit on the number of people?”
Myo Wang shook his head.
– There’s no such limit. A hundred people could come and all receive Simhaekkgu, or tens of thousands could come and not a single one might receive any. Simhaekkgu will only be given to those qualified to receive it. However, since we don’t have that much time, we want you to make a preliminary selection.
“I’d like there to be a specific limit.”
– Hmm, true.
Myo Wang nodded.
Since these people didn’t have the ability to assess potential, they would probably think to bring everyone.
He would have done the same.
– Exactly one thousand people. You must bring those with outstanding talent that anyone can see, who haven’t lived lazy lives.
“Yes, understood.”
– Do you have any other questions?
Though a brief moment was given, no one dared to even attempt conversing with the Myo King.
Fundamentally, the Myo King’s attitude was only gentle toward Yu Ji-a and cold toward everyone else.
– It seems there are none. Then let us meet again at that time.
Swoosh!
At the same time, the Myo King’s form disappeared without a trace.
They would only realize later after transcending.
That thanks to Baek Jin-woo, they had so easily encountered a being they normally wouldn’t meet even if they lived for thousands of years.
A month passed, and there was an inauguration ceremony.
Deputy Reincarnation Officer.
– Now you’ll be able to do the work you were originally doing even more comfortably. Baek Jin-woo.
Fundamentally, it was a position that integrated the work of Inspectors, Scribes, and Enforcers!
When the Reincarnation Officer was absent, it was a position that could also handle the Reincarnation Officer’s duties.
“Thank you.”
– What thanks. I’m more grateful. I’m asking you to do all my troublesome work too.
Heh heh heh.
The Reincarnation Officer smiled contentedly.
Actually, life had become easier since he arrived.
Patrols were reduced, and thanks to that, he could focus entirely on preparing to become a King of the Underworld.
Being a King of the Underworld required quite a lot of preparation and studying, making the process very arduous and demanding.
He had to learn the rules of the Underworld and memorize major judgment cases.
In reality, the Kings of the Underworld made arbitrary rulings, but it was because of competition.
Unlike Myo Shin-gung, the Underworld had massive forces and quite a few transcendents positioned at the end of Star Plate Realm or the beginning of Breakthrough Realm.
– Since you work diligently, I’ll trust you and leave it to you. If an incident occurs, there will be great consequences, but if you complete your duties safely until I become a Great King, I’ll give you a great reward.
“Understood.”
After bowing his head in greeting and coming out, the corners of Baek Jin-woo’s mouth rose.
‘Jackpot.’
For Baek Jin-woo, this was an opportunity.
In reality, the being he was most cautious and careful of when liberating souls was the Reincarnation Officer, but now he had entrusted all work to him!
‘This way I can liberate souls more boldly.’
Also, he would be able to mark even more souls with good potential.
Just as Baek Jin-woo was about to summon all his creatures to get to work.
– Master!
Mayeo raised her hand.
“Why?”
– Actually, I was debating whether to tell you or not, but my sorcery caught something strange, meow.
“Something strange?”
– Come here and look, meow!
Baek Jin-woo’s eyes lit up.
Whenever Mayeo said such things, she always brought back something huge.
– While practicing universal laws and reading the flow of the Underworld with sorcery, there was a place where slightly special energy was flowing out, meow.
Swoosh.
As Mayeo waved her hand, a hologram popped out.
There, the appearance of our galaxy, that is, the Underworld, was displayed, and among various planets, only one place was glowing red.
“What is this?”
– I don’t know either, meow. How about we go take a look, meow? Jin Gwang prohibited going near Earth, but now we can go anywhere else in the Underworld, can’t we, meow!
“Right.”
But special energy, huh.
It reminded him of old times.
He had followed Melseryong and gained the opportunity to meet the Myo King.
Listening to Mayeo’s words always brought good fortune even while sleeping.
‘I’m excited?’
“Aso, Mayeo. Let’s go check it out with just the two of you. The rest can work, rest, or spend their own time as they wish.”
– Yes!
– Got it, meow!
– Huh, meow?
Mayeo blinked her eyes.
– It should definitely be here, but it suddenly disappeared, meow!
“Can’t you catch it with sorcery?”
– It’s not caught… Oh!
“Hm?”
– Why did it move over here, meow! It was definitely here, meow!
Mayeo pointed at the hologram with an aggrieved voice.
That was right.
The position of that red planet had changed.
‘The planet’s coordinates changed?’
Baek Jin-woo’s eyes lit up.
Such mysterious phenomena definitely had something behind them.
Someone had forcibly created such a phenomenon, and deliberately made it hard to find?
‘It means there’s something they want to hide.’
“Let’s go again. It changed to inside the Underworld, right?”
– That’s right, but what if it changes again, meow!
“Then we’ll go to where it changed again. If it continues, we’ll somehow find a way to enter that planet.”
– Got it, meow!
Baek Jin-woo, Mayeo, and Aso continued searching for the red planet.
And as expected.
When they arrived at the marked coordinates, it had jumped somewhere else again.
The planet definitely had some kind of technique cast on it.
They tried several times, but it was useless.
They tried sharing coordinates and using Aso’s Meteor Strike to leap, but that was also useless.
It was frustrating.
Just how were they supposed to enter?
Should he ask the Reincarnation Officer? But then.
‘Absolutely not.’
It might be some kind of opportunity, so reveal it all to someone else?
‘I’ll definitely solve it with my own power.’
Baek Jin-woo had a determined look in his eyes.
“For the time being, I’ll focus only on this. I’ll somehow find it and get in.”
For the first time in a while, the obsession that used to activate during Battle of Summoners flowed out.
Now it didn’t matter what was inside.
Absolutely!
He felt like he absolutely had to enter to be satisfied.
