Episode 390
Ep. 390
Meanwhile, Roel approached Minjeong with a satisfied expression once the audio installation was complete.
“Is the training going well…?”
“Of course! They’re all such good people!”
“No, it’s not that we’re good.”
“It’s just that the branch director is so strong.”
“Phew, I really thought I was going to die back there.”
“Hehe, look at that~ Work was already hectic, but now that three people have been added to the roster, things should ease up a bit.”
Minjeong patted Roel’s arm a couple of times as if to say he should manage them since they were his direct subordinates anyway, then left the room.
Roel stood before them with a deep smile.
“So what is it that we should be doing, Roel?”
The Spirits also asked Roel, seeming quite curious.
Roel gestured casually toward the back and spoke.
“Move those things to the second floor….”
There, document boxes were stacked like a mountain.
“W-What is this.”
“Us?”
No matter what, they were also Spirits of S+ grade items.
Were they brought here just to do menial chores like this?!
“Then, should I do it…?”
“N-No, we should do it, yes.”
But there was no way their complaints would have any effect.
The three Spirits soon stood up dejectedly and began moving the documents.
Tap— Tap—
The Skeletons that Roel had summoned also came out to help them.
“Then, what do we do once we’ve moved all the documents?”
“After that… it’s time to learn about Earth’s culture….”
“Ooh!”
“Now that’s it!”
Only then did the Spirits cheer as if they’d finally been given proper work.
Surely Roel would properly teach them about the darkness of this world!
The back alleys of the night streets in a massive city, drugs and gambling that corrode society, crime reeking of blood and depravity!
The Spirits, energized just by the thought of it, hoisted the document boxes with vigor and swiftly moved them to the second floor.
“We’ve moved everything, Roel!”
“Let’s go learn about culture right away!”
“Is it still a bit early? Ahahaha!”
“No….”
“Kyahahoo!”
Pintoo, Egos, and Hydro—their bodies already burning with anticipation to experience Earth’s darkness right away!
Roel did lead them to a dark place.
– I’ll always be by your side~ Even if the world ends~
“????”
“How is it….”
“How is it? What do you mean…?”
“No, Roel, what on earth is this?”
– Oh, take my hand, let’s cross the Milky Way together~
Blackout curtains blocking out every ray of sunlight—the optimal viewing environment!
An overwhelmingly impressive sound system that naturally drew praise for its beauty, paired with a top-tier display.
“Isn’t it truly beautiful?”
“?????”
Roel’s eyes glistened with tears simply from being in this place as he asked the Spirits.
…Of course, the Spirits couldn’t possibly sympathize with his words.
But seeing is believing.
Roel continued watching the drama, convinced that these poor souls would surely be enlightened.
How much time had passed like this?
“No, why did you leave all those documents on the second floor and disappear?!”
Minjeong, overwhelmed by her workload, finally couldn’t take it anymore and burst into the screening room where they were.
Inside, there was.
“Waaahhh!!! Yeonwoo! Don’t die!!!”
“Turn back time! Do it now ooooh!!!!”
“Ugh! Where is that bastard Dokgo Yeon right now?! I want him dead right nooooow!!!!”
…Strangely enough, there were four Overlord faction Spirits streaming tears while watching a melodrama.
Minjeong quietly closed the door again, as if she’d witnessed something she shouldn’t have.
“What did I just see? Ugh, I can’t get used to this.”
I should just go back to finishing my work.

[ 60 Days After Clearing Floor 100. What Has Changed? ]
[ After Main Tower Integration, Underground Hunter Schemes Plummet… Security Issues from Gates and Instant Towers Persist ]
[ S+ Grade Item Problem Emerges. How Did Korea Become a Clean Zone? ]
[ One-Strike’s Next Target: Floor 101. When Will It Be Conquered? ]
After Ihyeon cleared the 100th floor.
The world found relief in the stabilized Main Tower, yet struggled with newly emerging problems.
However, regarding the Overlord faction items—which constituted most of these new problems—Korea remained relatively free from them.
Not only had Roel already pacified all the items that had appeared, but Spirits who sensed his presence even sought him out on their own.
“Ah! Sujeong, be more courageous! If you’re going to eavesdrop, listen to the whole thing!!!”
“Ugh, Roji, you haven’t watched Sun Hunter yet. That drama is truly a masterpiece.”
…Of course, the newly arrived Spirit Roji also found herself unable to escape the world of dramas after setting foot in Roel’s screening room once.
In any case, since all the Spirits that could cause problems were doing this, South Korea had become a strangely problem-free, pristine nation on the surface.
Additionally, during this time, Seongcheol and the Ilgeuk Foundation had also revealed Serena’s true identity to the world.
Korea was already in a frenzy over the rare Healer-type Spirit, and now this.
[ └ Director Han Seongcheol should pay five times the taxes!!!!
└ Please let me contribute five times as much in donations too!!!
The only foundation that seems to have set a per-person donation limit is the Ilgyeok Foundation, lol.
└ If you donate separately to the four organizations—Ilgyeok Foundation, Ilgyeok Commerce, Ilgyeok Guild, and Ilgyeok Volunteer Corps—you can multiply your donation by four.
Wow, what a patriot lol;;;
└ If you donate like that, they give you a commemorative badge signed by Jia as thanks.
└ So does the Ilgeuk Foundation actually make any profit? ]
That very day, inquiries about donations to the Ilgeuk Foundation and its three affiliated organizations skyrocketed!
Since Jiana Elsie and Ilgeok rarely made public appearances together, Serena’s popularity, who frequently volunteered at various locations alongside Seongcheol, naturally grew just as rapidly.
Of course, to prevent excessive confusion, she usually kept a low profile like Jiana Elsie did.
‘So that’s how Ilgeok’s Spirits managed to avoid detection all this time.’
After a long time, Seongcheol finally understood Ilgeok!
[ (Video) Why Americans are rushing to the airport with their passports to naturalize in Korea
Did you know? Recently, international airports in America have seen an unusual surge of people heading to Korea….
└ So can someone summarize this;
└ It’s saying that S+ grade item problems don’t occur because of Ilgeok
└ What? I thought this was just typical Korean pride content, but it’s actually true? ]
If there’s a reason Korea is thriving, it’s entirely thanks to Ilgeok!
It was half-jokingly said as a meme, but it wasn’t entirely wrong either.
The reason other nations could subdue the Spirits causing them headaches was because Ihyeon had persuaded Roel.
Moreover, Ihyeon had also become quite acquainted with the Overlord’s Spirits.
“Suyeon, your place was pretty noisy today, wasn’t it?”
“Oh, yeah. Today’s the day we’re having a video exchange session with Roel.”
“…I see.”
Ihyeon, who initially didn’t understand what she meant, nodded in belated comprehension.
Since Roel had brought his Spirits along, Ihyeon followed Suyeon to her house out of curiosity to see what kind of beings they were.
– …!!!
– …. …! !!!
The quite noisy sounds leaking from outside the house suggested they were indeed rough characters, being from the Overlord faction.
‘If there’s any real problem, I should step in and try to stop them.’
Causing a disturbance at Suyeon’s house of all places?
Ihyeon had no intention of allowing such a thing.
If they wanted to cause trouble, they should go to Deokhuun’s warehouse instead.
…Ihyeon entered Suyeon’s house while thinking thoughts that would make Deokhuun cry if he heard them.
But what was this?
“Elmon! Go!!!”
“Krilong Krilong, with the power of magic!”
“You dummy, it’s Krilong, not Krilong!”
Roel and five Spirits—Pintoo, Egos, Hydro, and Roji—were sitting on the living room sofa with sweat on their palms, watching an anime.
The noise from outside was a result of that.
“Hmm….”
I fell silent, confronted by an absurd scene I didn’t know how to react to.
Should I call this pure-hearted, or what?
Five Spirits from the Overlord faction—ones others desperately coveted, ones causing such problems abroad that entire nations scrambled to address them—were gathered here enthusiastically watching anime together?
‘Well, I suppose that’s fortunate, if anything.’
I asked Suyeon.
“Aren’t those creatures being too loud?”
Suyeon shook her head.
“No, I’m actually happy to have someone to watch anime with. I was a bit scared at first, but it turns out they’re all kind people.”
“I, I see.”
If Suyeon was content, there wasn’t much I could say.
“But why are you holding a gun?”
“Ah, this….”
Suyeon questioned me as I held a sniper rifle despite not heading out on a raid.
Just then, the Spirits noticed that I and Suyeon had entered and paused the anime, rising from their seats.
“Suyeon, thank you so much for introducing us to such a masterpiece.”
“Elmon didn’t know about this during all those thousands of years. What a waste.”
“Krkrkr! With magical power, I shall vanquish evil!”
‘…Isn’t this educational effect a bit too certain, no matter how you look at it?’
I stared awkwardly at the Spirits expressing gratitude to Suyeon with tears in their eyes.
Truth be told, these Spirits belonged to the forces of evil that Elmon fought against.
Yet rather than resenting the evil forces being brutally destroyed, they seemed to genuinely cheer Elmon on.
Perhaps anime and dramas were surprisingly effective tools for controlling the Overlord faction’s Spirits?
Suyeon waved her hand dismissively with a smile.
“No, I’m also enjoying dramas these days thanks to you all.”
“Krkrk, Suyeon has such a beautiful heart!”
“Far better than our Master!”
“But, who is that person…?”
Only then did the Spirits begin to take interest in me standing beside Suyeon.
Their gazes naturally shifted to the sniper rifle in my hand.
I hadn’t displayed any particularly threatening aura.
“Kyaaahhhhh!!!!”
“I, impossible! There exists someone this strong?!”
“R, Roel, surely not ahhhhh!!!!!”
The Spirits each cried out in terror and hid behind Roel.
Roel nodded with an air of obvious annoyance.
“Yes… that’s Ilgyeok.”
“Kyaaahhhhh!!!”
“P, please spare us!”
“We’ve truly decided to live righteously!”
“No, I never intended to kill anyone….”
Could I even kill a Spirit in the first place?
“Then, then I’ll inflict suffering worse than death!!!!”
“Kkhkhkh, Egos, myself, thank you for all your hard work up until now!!!”
“I haven’t even finished watching Elmon yet!!”
“Just listen to me for a moment….”
“Aaahhh, Overlord, I’m coming to your side soon!”
Bang—!
“Listen.”
“Ah, yes.”
“Please go ahead.”
Only after Ihyeon forcefully struck the sniper rifle’s stock against the floor did the Spirits finally settle down somewhat.
At least I could confirm that the Spirits had been reformed enough not to be a menace to society.
I felt rather embarrassed for drawing the sniper rifle based on a misunderstanding—they were simply Spirits who enjoyed watching animations.
‘I originally planned to enter a few days later… but honestly, delaying further won’t change anything.’
Ihyeon spoke to Suyeon as if he’d had everything planned all along.
“I’m going to enter the 101st floor soon.”
“Really?!”
“!!”
It had already been two months since clearing the 100th floor.
I’d just recently reached level 90, distributed my stats, and upgraded Multi-Target to B-grade.
As Ihyeon said, it was about time to enter the 101st floor.
Even if I could learn what concept the 100-tier floors followed, I could prepare thoroughly, but Leon—the only one who might have that information—stubbornly refused to say anything.
So there was little point in wasting more time here.
…Of course, if I thought about it a bit more, I might wonder what drawing a sniper rifle in Suyeon’s house had to do with entering the 101st floor today.
But the 101st floor was so shocking to both humans and Spirits alike that no one’s thoughts reached that far.
Elsie arrived a bit late.
“Master~ I’ve been looking everywhere, and here you were?”
“Elsie, let’s clear the 101st floor.”
“What? You didn’t say anything like that until yesterday?”
“…It was a secret operation.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Elsie was startled for a moment but readily agreed as if it didn’t really matter.
Ihyeon had cleared even the 100th floor—where he had to face a Divine Incarnation—so easily and perfectly.
There was confidence that no matter what happened on the 101st floor, he could overcome it without major crisis.
However, clearing a new floor required coordination with the Management Bureau.
Not long after, Korean portal sites erupted with commotion.
[ (Breaking News) Ilgeok Begins 101st Floor Clear. Management Bureau Officially Confirms ]
One hit and he does what I say, it’s crazy.
└ Who pressured Ilgyeok about when to conquer the next floor? ]
Naturally, as the Main Tower had been unified, this wasn’t something unique to Korea alone.
Now, whenever Ilgyeok conquered a floor, it meant the timer for the entire Earth was extended by one hundred days.
Behind the global media’s breaking news about Ilgyeok’s conquest of the 101st floor lay this hidden context.
