Chapter 207: Dimensional Hole Rather Than Dimensional Gate

Earth.

Samhan Empire Gurye Kim Tae-ju’s Basement Training Room.

He immediately began the experiment.

His heart was urgent.

Even a golf ball-sized hole was still a gate connecting dimensions.

To maintain it continuously, sufficient mana supply was essential.

So first, the device to supply mana.

He didn’t need to make a new one.

Fortunately, there was something suitable to modify.

The soul-mediated dimensional gate generator that had been delivered just before going to Gangho.

Originally, it was something Dok-seon had sent in advance to bring Baek Hong-pyo. He had received 3 extras just in case.

The gate generator was made of rectangular silver alloy.

When he unscrewed and opened the cover, he could see the chaotically configured magical engineering enchantment spell formulas.

Since he had shared knowledge with Danggumak, who had diligently studied magical engineering, he knew exactly what to do.

Soul connection was good for this reason.

Learned knowledge was shared all at once.

‘Delete the unnecessary parts.’

Most of it was gate-opening functions, activation switch circuits, size limitation circuits, position regulation circuits… he removed them all.

Just one thing!

He only left the mana supply circuit.

But even that needed improvement.

The gate that opened when operating the generator was large enough for people to easily pass through.

In contrast, the size of the dimensional hole Tae-ju could open was about 1/100th of that.

The mana supply amount also needed to be reduced to 1/100th.

It wasn’t difficult.

Anyone could do it if they mastered just the basics of magical engineering.

Also, like a battery remaining amount display, there needed to be a remaining mana amount display circuit.

Expressing the remaining amount numerically was an essential element.

Because the dimensional hole must not close due to insufficient mana.

Carving the circuit diagram stitch by stitch.

After confirming it worked properly.

‘Done.’

Mana supply device completed.

Next.

‘Where should I open the dimensional hole?’

He pondered for a long time.

If he opened it just anywhere, it would be hard to find.

‘The Multiplex?’

The Immortals might see it.

It wouldn’t cause big problems, but it was still better to maintain secrecy…

‘Underworld Inferno Palace would be good.’

What if Yama saw it first?

He could know about it.

He wasn’t loose-lipped enough to spread rumors everywhere.

Let’s write a letter in advance so it can be put through the hole.

In case Yama saw it first, asking him to deliver it to Dok-seon.

Tae-ju imagined Yama’s office in Eophwagung and opened a dimensional hole.

Zziiing!

‘It opened.’

And when he activated the mana supply device next to it.

Wooong.

Mana rippling and being transmitted through the hole.

How long would it be maintained?

It seemed like it would definitely last over a year.

Let’s try putting the letter in first.

Tied with string.

Swoosh!

After waiting a moment, the string was pulled inside.

“Oh!”

He must have read it.

But what’s the use of just sending a letter?

He should also give Yama rent for the dimensional hole space.

Since it needed to be kept open longer than expected.

* * *

After Tae-ju returned to Earth through the gate, Danggumak patted his startled chest.

“Phew, I aged ten years.”

“You must have been very surprised.”

“Of course. Tae-ju’s home isn’t here, is it? I would have been trapped with no way out…”

In the prison called the Immortal Realm.

“Anyway, since he’s gone back, let’s finish our conversation. You want to cross over to Gangho in the Human Realm?”

“Just briefly. I have something to deliver.”

“What is it?”

“Do you remember the red robe that the sinner Namgung Hun was wearing before?”

“Ah! The clothes that Swordsman killed him for and brought to you?”

“Yes, I want to return it to its original owner. Half a day would be enough.”

Yama nodded and said.

“For that much, you wouldn’t need to get permission from Sangje.”

“Then you’ll open it for me?”

“Hmm, there’s a condition.”

He expected this.

He hadn’t planned to ask for free anyway.

“What do you want?”

“There’s something that can’t even be bought with coins.”

“What?”

“Tobacco filter cigarettes.”

“…Those are prohibited from sale.”

“Please be flexible! The Immortal Realm and Cheon-gye are non-smoking areas, but Hwangcheon-gye isn’t! I’ll only smoke here, so sell them just to me.”

But even Danggumak couldn’t back down on that.

“That’s what all smokers say. They’ll only smoke in smoking areas, but do you know how many cigarette butts were found in Seon-gye World in the early days of sales?”

“I really will only smoke here. I’ll pay any amount of coins, so sell them!”

“Actually, even if I wanted to sell them, I can’t. I don’t have that item.”

“Huh, you don’t have any?”

“Even what I had, I threw into the Yoma Realm pit for disposal.”

“Huh…”

Yama could sense it.

That it wasn’t a lie.

“Instead, I’ll bring plenty of the new exclusive liquid.”

“Tsk, it barely has any nicotine… Fine. I’ll assign you a Jeoseungsaja, so go and come back.”

Yama called for a Jeoseungsaja from outside.

“Hey there!”

“Did you call for me, Your Majesty?”

“Take Dok-seon and go to the Human Realm.”

“Yes.”

After Danggumak also expressed his gratitude to Yama.

“It won’t take long.”

“Even if it takes more than half a day, take your time with the task.”

Originally, he shouldn’t open it like this.

He’s sending Dok-seon because unlike other Immortals, he probably won’t cause trouble outside.

But then?

Had about 10 minutes passed?

“…Are they back already?”

“How long does it take to deliver one piece of clothing?”

Dok-seon’s journey to Gangho really didn’t even take half a day.

He returned to Hwangcheon-gye in an instant.

“You should have at least had a conversation before coming back.”

“It’s fine. In case there might be problems, I forcibly put him to sleep and just dressed him. I have things to take care of.”

“Hehehe.”

Dok-seon could truly be called a model of a proper Immortal.

It would be really nice if all Immortals were like Dok-seon.

“What business do you have that made you return so quickly?”

“I want to look for Yeongsu that Tae-ju takes around with him.”

“Ah! The spirit beast with three heads?”

“Yes. He might be anxious being left alone…”

Right at that moment!

Zziiing!

The sound of something splitting.

‘Huh? This is…’

It’s the sound of a door opening.

“Your Majesty, did you just open a door?”

“No? I didn’t open one.”

Then could it be?

Danggumak lowered his head and turned his gaze to the floor.

Yama’s eyes also followed his gaze.

Another dimensional hole opened in the floor.

“It’s a hole?”

“Yes, it seems so. It must have been opened from Earth.”

“Tsk, they shouldn’t keep opening them.”

Not only was it opened.

Something was wriggling and crawling out like a snake from inside.

“Is it a clothesline? There’s something like paper tied to the front too.”

If it’s paper, then a letter?

It seems Tae-ju sent it.

Dok-seon unrolled and read the rolled-up paper from the string.

Then his expression gradually changed as.

“Hahahaha! How clever, the small hole actually makes it even better.”

“What does it say?”

“It’s a long story, but it seems Earth and the Upper Realm will become closer in the future.”

“Huh? That, that can’t happen! Wh, what’s going on?”

“I’ll tell you the details slowly.”

Danggumak immediately took out a pen and paper, wrote a reply to Tae-ju, and put it into the hole.

At Dok-seon’s words, Yama is deeply anxious.

Earth and the Upper Realm becoming closer?

For what reason exactly?

“Your Majesty.”

“Hmm? What?”

“Whether we can keep this dimensional hole open.”

“…Until when?”

“Tae-ju is conducting a simple experiment on Earth. At least until the experiment is finished.”

Yama’s face looked troubled.

Even though it’s a small hole, it’s a gate connected to Earth.

If they keep it open, the connection with Earth will gradually accelerate.

Then more Earth souls will come to Hwangcheon-gye.

How many more sinners will there be?

They’re not ready to accept them all yet.

He has no choice but to oppose it.

“No! Open it somewhere else, not here. We need to close it right now…”

Suddenly!

Wriggle wriggle.

Something coming out of the dimensional hole.

“Huh?”

It was 10 cigarettes tied together in a circle with a ribbon.

And they were hard-to-find filter cigarettes with an excellent smooth taste.

‘Cigarettes are coming out of the hole?’

For now, Yama didn’t move a muscle.

Actually, he’s managing his expression.

Inside, he wants to pull one out and light it right away.

“Hmm.”

“It seems Tae-ju sent them.”

“I, I see.”

“More might come out.”

“…Ahem.”

“Should I close the hole?”

“…”

“We can open it somewhere else. I have my house too.”

Are you crazy?

Why would we close this!

“Leave it… as it is. Since Kim Tae-ju is conducting an experiment, Hwangcheon-gye should naturally cooperate.”

“Oh! Thank you.”

“I’ll be watching over it, so don’t worry. Go take care of your business. Didn’t you say you had urgent matters?”

“Yes, then I’ll trust you and go.”

After Danggumak left.

Yama pulled out one cigarette and hastily lit it.

“Whew.”

It’s savory.

Electronic cigarettes can’t even compare.

Will more come out?

I hope so.

Then!

Wriggle wriggle.

Then 10 more cigarettes came out tied with a ribbon.

“Ooooh!”

He was so delighted he didn’t know what to do with himself.

This wasn’t a dimensional hole, it was a cigarette hole.

It really was.

Swoosh!

‘Again? Good, so good.’

Yama crouched down in front of the hole.

His eyes wouldn’t leave the hole.

A cornucopia producing precious filter cigarettes in a row.

‘I can’t leave this spot.’

Wasn’t he worried about the accelerated connection between Earth and Hwangcheon-gye?

Well, they were already connected anyway.

Even if it got a little faster, it was all the same.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

Cigarettes kept coming out.

“Hehehe.”

Laughter came naturally.

Just then!

“Huh? Your Majesty, what are you doing crouched on the floor there? That’s not good for your joint health.”

It was Kang Rim.

He hurriedly covered the cigarette hole with his body.

“You bastard! I’m Yama, what joint health? Are you done with all your work today?”

“Yes? I was actually coming to give you a work report…”

“Don’t need it! Get lost!”

“Ah, no, suddenly out of nowhere…”

“Shut up, from today this is a restricted area! Tell everyone not to come in.”

“…”

Why is he acting like that?

Did he eat something wrong?

* * *

Mi-ho Seon-ja was the most popular fox spirit in the Hwansu Realm.

As soon as she grew her nine tails, she was recruited by Seo Wang-mo and given the position of Seonja at the Palace of Peach Blossoms, earning the envy of all fox spirits.

Mi-ho Seon-ja had a grand dream.

To enter the Immortal Realm delivery business that Jecheon Daeseong monopolized.

Did monopolies make sense in this day and age?

There should be competing companies so delivery quality improves, delivery fees go down, and consumers benefit.

If Jecheon Daeseong had his clones, then Miho had her fox spirits.

She would hire them as employees and get business rights from Dok-seon.

First, she had to entice the fox spirits.

That’s why Miho came to the Hwansu Realm.

‘Where did everyone go?’

They were probably sleeping in some sunny spot.

Fox spirits were as lazy as Immortals.

Having finished their arduous training in the Human Realm and ascended to the Hwansu Realm, perhaps due to some kind of compensation psychology, they preferred playing over working.

Sometimes they would go to Seon-gye World to do part-time work managing rides.

At that moment!

A fox spirit caught Miho’s eye.

It was also carrying a bag in its mouth that looked familiar.

‘Hmm?’

It was one she hadn’t seen before.

Did it just ascend?

It was also a peculiar one.

On the outside it looked like one fox spirit, but inside it wasn’t.

It had three separate consciousnesses.

In other words, three spirits merged into one.

“Hey, you there!”

“Meow?”

“Come here.”

“Kyaak!”

“Oh? Being rebellious?”

Ilisambaeyi tensed up.

The being currently visible before his eyes.

Clearly not human.

It was the same species as himself.

Moreover, he could feel tremendous energy.

Even if he transformed to his true form, it would be too much to handle.

“It’s okay. I won’t hit you. Let’s just have a chat with your big sister.”

“…Nyaaang?”

“Really! Don’t you believe me? I’m Miho, Miho! The nine-tailed fox, haven’t you heard of me?”

“Nya!”

“You haven’t heard? That’s strange. Where are you from?”

“Nya, nyaaaa, nyang.”

“…What?”

Miho was shocked.

“R-really? You came up from Earth with Kim Tae-ju?”

“Nyang!”

“Hmm…”

It was true.

What unexpected good fortune was this?

To encounter such unforeseen luck.

Pop!

Nine tails sprouted from Mi-ho Seon-ja’s bottom in her jeans.

At the same time, they spun around frantically like a fan.

“Oh my! You should have said so from the beginning!”

“…Nyanyan?”

“I’m super close with Kim Tae-ju! I even have photos we took together. Want to see?”

“Nyang.”

Miho took out her Immortal Realm smartphone and showed photos to Ilisambaeyi.

“Nyang!”

“Came out well, right? Anyway, what’s your name?”

“Nyang, yaong, niang.”

“Ilbaek, Ibaek, Sambaek? Well, since there are three of you…”

Ilisambaeyi, now feeling reassured, dropped the bag he’d been carrying at Miho’s feet.

“What’s this?”

“Yaaaaaaa…”

“Oh my? Kim Tae-ju gave this to share with the fox spirits?”

“Ang!”

Mi-ho Seon-ja opened the bag, turned the opening downward, and shook it vigorously.

Thud thud thud thud thud thud!

“Wowwww!”

Various wet and dry food and treats poured out from the bag.

They piled up endlessly in heaps.

How much would this be in coins?

It’s enormous.

“…C-can I really eat all of this?”

“Meow.”

“You say you’ve eaten a lot? Lucky you.”

Mi-ho Seon-ja with ecstatic eyes.

Then, as if remembering something, she asked Ilisambaeyi.

“But why don’t you transform into human form?”

“Meow?”

“You can’t? Tsk tsk, that’s why you can’t learn human speech either… Should I teach you?”

“Meow!”

“Alright. Let’s practice together after eating a few of these.”

Pop!

She opened a can and was about to eat a treat when a voice came from somewhere.

“I wondered where you went, and here you are.”

It was Danggumak.

“Meow?”

“Oh my! Dok-seon?”

Danggumak approached Ilisambaeyi who was with Mi-ho Seon-ja.

“Are you playing well?”

“Meooow.”

“Sorry, but Tae-ju returned to Earth first.”

“…Meow?”

“There were unavoidable circumstances.”

Ilisambaeyi was flustered.

“Me, meowwww?”

“Don’t worry. You can play here and return later with Cheonin Baek Hong-pyo.”

Only then did Ilisambaeyi seem relieved and smiled broadly.

“Meowwwww…”

Then to Mi-ho Seon-ja.

“Thank you for playing with our Ilisambaeyi.”

“Oh, no. Well, he’s still young so I felt sorry for him.”

“Please take care of him in the future. Introduce him to friends too.”

He didn’t just ask for a favor.

He took out a Chanel designer bag from the Infinite Space.

“Would this be enough?”

Mi-ho Seon-ja’s nine tails spun like a storm.

“Oh my, what’s all this…”

She quickly took it and.

“I’ll take special care to look after him.”

“Please do.”

Now, shall I meet with Gwi-gok?

Danggumak was thinking of sending Gwi-gok and Gal Hong to Earth soon.

They could learn to install base station equipment and communication facilities there.

Both are smart, so they’ll learn quickly.

Also, this fact should be kept secret until the Earth-Immortal Realm network is completed.

Otherwise, it would become very bothersome with the Immortals nagging to make it quickly.

Also, the pricing plan needs to be discussed.

Tae-ju will pay the fees on Earth, and they need to charge separately in the Immortal Realm.

* * *

Gangho Sichuan Dang Clan.

Dang Cheol-hwi, who had been sleeping while sitting in a chair, slowly opened his eyes.

“Huh? Why am I…”

Was he tired?

That couldn’t be.

For someone like himself who was on the verge of mastering Honweonmusangdokryeongong, physical fatigue could be easily resolved with a single circulation of qi.

Even now, he was overflowing with vitality.

Let’s start moving slowly.

There’s a lot to do.

So the moment he tried to get up from his seat!

“Gasp!”

What’s this?

The clothes now worn on his body, a red robe.

Why is this on me?

It was stolen by Namgung Hun.

‘…Ahhh!’

I think I know.

He must have secretly come down and put it on me before leaving.

‘I can’t even show my face around.’

Because of his worthless son and family, he had forced such troublesome work upon him.

‘Then what about Namgung Hun?’

That bastard wouldn’t have voluntarily offered the treasure.

‘Father must have taken action.’

How shameful.

“Sigh.”

The Dang Clan’s revenge is something he and his family members must handle directly.

That person who has left the secular world shouldn’t get involved.

The Dang Clan was already preparing for revenge.

First, they began the process of reorganizing the Dang Clan’s scattered forces.

Then they planned to thoroughly pay them back.

They would make them clearly understand what happens when you touch the Dang Clan.

Secretly, viciously, and so thoroughly that they wouldn’t even dare to resist.

They would make them painfully understand the meaning of the Gangho saying: “Don’t share food, drink, or even water with anyone bearing the Dang surname.”

Not only the Five Great Clans, but also the Murim Alliance that condoned the situation, the beggars of Gaebang who sold information like rats, and even the Imperial Palace.

They would dye Gangho with blood.

And they would declare to all under heaven.

We are the Sichuan Dang Clan.
