Apocalypse’s All-Rounder Mischief

Pathus' Blackmail (2)

“Are you threatening to take my family hostage now?”

Contrary to the cold flashing eyes, Junyoung's voice was calm.

He didn't seem too angry at the sound of his voice.

But Hariek felt a suffocating fear.

‘I can’t stand still. Are you also a 10-star rookie?’

Obviously, the information window says that he is a 10-star god, and I heard that he has a subordinate with a mysterious ability to defeat even the 9-star chaos god, Kaios.

When I met Junyoung again, I didn't feel the same momentum as a 10-star god, so there were some things I was curious about.

He had doubts in the midst of fear and horror, and at this moment, those doubts are completely gone.

An unknown energy wrapped around his divine powers, completely incapacitating him.

The ability to make him like this, the strongest 7-star rookie, without lifting a hand!

It would be impossible without a 10-star god.

However, Junyoung was also surprised at this moment.

Of course, he was in a very angry state, but he didn't expect that he would incapacitate Hariek so quickly.

Anger amplifies the desire for a moment, and the amplified desire is the result of combining divine power and dimensional power.

He made the seven-star god into a state like a scarecrow.

That's not all.

Since Hariek had become like this, there was nothing to say about Aroel.

She just lost her consciousness and collapsed.

For a non-human god to enter such a state, it is almost as if he had received a shock just before death, that is, a permanent seal.

Here, even if Junyoung lifts one hand, Aroel will become dust from the dimension plane and scatter.

As much as that, Junyoung's anger exploded and the ability of desire amplified brought mysterious results.

The sad thing is that the desire that had accumulated during that time was exhausted at once.

Fortunately, he had already defeated Hariek, so there was no need to consume much of his desire right away.

And the desire will be filled again as the Awoken are still carrying out their missions.

“Tell me. Where is my family now?”

Junyoung asked again.

His eyes looking down at Hariek were colder than before.

So he was very angry.

He just hadn't shown it outwardly.

Since the advent of the apocalypse, he has never been freed from worries about his family.

Even though he had now become a whopping 7-star god, he was frustrated by the fact that he did not know where his family was.

However.

Now, Hariek is threatening his family with hostages.

Of course, it is said that he received an order from Patus, but that cannot be an indulgence.

If he didn't give me a proper answer, I was going to get rid of Haryek right now.

The reason he is working so hard to save the earth now is because he wants to meet his family again and live a happy life.

But what if his family dies?

What does it mean to save the planet or become a 10-star god?

“Tell me! Where is my family now?”

Hariek was lying on the floor with a painful expression on his face.

In fact, he couldn't move his mouth, even though he wanted to talk to him.

Because Junyoung has completely blocked his powers.

Noticing it, Junyoung loosened his power a bit so he could speak his words, and only then did he open his mouth.

“Forgive me. Absolutely not, and to be honest, I despise this approach.”

"Know. You must be following orders.”

“I have only obeyed Patus-sama’s last command.”

“Last command?”

Junyoung glared at Junyoung as if what did that mean? Hariek replied weakly.

“Anyway, I was guessing. My fate is here. Soon I will either die at your hand or become a slave god like Cadiz over there.”

“I know you well.”

Junyoung nodded as if it was natural.

He is a slave god, and it is questionable whether he will save him or not.

That's why he's so angry.

“That’s why I said it was the last command. To Patus-sama, I am just a consumable item. On the one hand, I feel relieved that I no longer have to serve such a demonic being.”

Hariek continued speaking with an expression full of emptiness.

“And I know nothing about your family. I didn't even know you had a family. I just heard from Patus-sama before coming here.”“You mean only Patus knows?”

“It’s my opinion, but Patus-sama would not know.”

You don't even know Pathus?

Junyoung looked at Hariek as if it was unexpected.

“Did you threaten me without knowing where my family was?”

“Perhaps it will. If your family had been held hostage, Patus-sama would not have made such threats.”

Actually, I think that's correct.

Due to Patus' nature, he would have tried to subdue him by showing Junyoung his family in person.

'This is because I tried it once.'

But that's not reassuring.

That's what Patus said.

That would mean she's also looking for Junyoung's family.

'It's just a matter of time if Pathus decides.'

Junyoung was anxious.

If the family falls into the hands of Pathus, it's over.

Even if Patus doesn't find his family, there's no reassurance.

The threat of Patus!

Because it wasn't just limited to families.

‘If you reject the offer until the very end and fight against Patus-sama, he said that all Awakened Earthlings held hostage will be brutally killed and destroyed…’

Without needing to find Junyoung's family, who doesn't know where he is, he just kills all the Awakened Earth people who have been moved to the world of Pathus.

Then maybe your family will die too.

A family is a family too.

It was never Junyoung's wish to have so many people die.

‘Patus! That crazy psychopathic system is more than enough to do that.’

Junyoung was troubled.

If you provoke Patus here, an irreversible tragedy will unfold.

But that doesn't mean that you can't just play with Patus' will.

'okay. I'd rather be good.'

In an instant, an unknown smile appeared on Junyoung's lips.

Even so, I had a plan I had in mind for a long time to prepare for such a situation.

Now is the time to implement it.

***

[The gate to the Hope 2 City Dungeon has been opened.]

[If you want to move to the city, please tell the nearby Servant or Maid.]

Hope 1 City Dungeon Square.

Yoon Tae-ho, who had just completed one of the long-awaited missions and was eating at the restaurant in the square, was delighted.

‘A new city is finally connected.’

If not, I've been waiting for it to happen.

Junyoung told me to come to the new city once it was connected safely, so he quickly ate his food and got up.

“Taeho! This is it.”

As he went out of the restaurant, Hye-Young Lee called him.

It is in front of a large gate that appeared on the north side of the square.

It looked like it was possible to move to Hope 2 Dungeon through there.

"what? Everyone has already gathered.”

When I went to the gate, not only Hyeyoung Lee, but also Andrew, Gortan, Lavra, and Acnez were waiting for him.

"Meow!"

Why are you here so late?

And meowed and looked at Yoon Tae-ho.

“Nyaan!”

Everyone was waiting.

Yoon Tae-ho couldn't understand what Andrew was saying, but he answered with a sly smile.

"I'm sorry. I was late because I was having some lunch.”

“Nyaan!”

it's ok I can wait this long.

Andrew blinked her eyes and swung her tail once.

Yoon Tae-ho scratched his head.

‘No matter how you look at it, he seems to understand everything I say.’

What kind of cat understands all human speech?

That's not all.

In terms of his fighting power, Yoon Tae-ho is even less than Andrew's toes.

The more you look at him, the more he looks.

Besides, Gortan, the hippo-head monster next to him, is also a formidable guy.

Aknez, a squirrel that spits fire from his mouth, although small, is a strange one the more you look at it.

How about the slime labra, which looks like a giant egg?

All weird guys.

No matter how the apocalypse came and became an awakening, Tae-ho Yoon couldn't believe that he was hanging out with bizarre beings with them.

And, of course, the most mysterious of them all.

Gortan and Acnez, Lavra!

It's because all those nerdy guys are actually grouped around And.

‘When you look at it that way, Junyoung hyung seems to communicate with And.’

In fact, he hates it the most.

‘I wish I could talk to Andy too.’

And another one.

He has never succeeded in stroking Andy's hair.

‘Cats are not allowed to pet anyone.’

a well-known fact.

So waiting.

If we get to know each other a little bit more, I wonder if he'll let me stroke that big head.

That gray hair that looks really soft.

'okay. Shall I stroke you just once?’

Seeing Andrew with his green eyes twinkling, he seems to be in a good mood.

'I failed last time.'

I'm a little more friendly now.

'I'm sure it means you're happy that I just meowed.'

Yoon Tae-ho was so sure.

In fact, he gets along well with people wherever he goes and makes friends quickly.

How much more like a cat guy.

'Heh, fairy! Now you will be stroking me and giving me the look you like.’

Immediately, Yoon Tae-ho smiled as humanly as possible and took his hand towards And's head.

“Andy! You look cuter today.”

“Nyaan!”

I know. But don't touch your head.

And meowed as if wary, and tapped Yoon Tae-ho's hand with his front paw.

“Aww!”

[You took 1 damage from And.]

1 damage.

That's why it doesn't hurt.

What makes you so depressed about being rejected by a cat?

As Yoon Tae-ho had a hurt expression on his face, Lee Hye-young laughed.

“Give up. Andy is no ordinary cat. It is clear that no one else is allowed to pet him other than the CEO.”

“Have you tried it too?”

“I have failed several times already.”

Lee Hye-young also had a gloomy expression on her face.

She had never been rejected by a cat anywhere, and she didn't work for Andy.

“Then what are these guys?”

Yoon Tae-ho pointed to Gortan and the like.

It's not the first time I've seen Andrew play on Gortan's shoulder and rub his head.

In the case of Acnez, he licks it with his tongue.

“I don’t know for sure, but maybe it’s because they’re friends?”

"friend?"

Yoon Tae-ho tilted his head.

At that moment, a loud male voice was heard from somewhere.

“That’s right. Cats tend to behave that way toward people they recognize as friends.”

Yoon Tae-ho and Lee Hye-young turned their heads and looked back at the sudden sound of a man's voice.Standing there stood a strange being, about two meters tall.

A being with the face of a sunflower and the body of a human male.

[Heliantes(???)]

When I look at the information window, nothing appears except the name.

Except his name is Heliantes.

"Who are you?"

Contrary to its bizarre appearance, a mysterious majesty is emerging from its body.

It seemed unusual, so Yoon Tae-ho asked politely.

“As you can see, it’s called Heliantes. But little by little you will know who I am.”

Heliantes continued, pointing to Andrew as if that didn't matter.

“Tell me how to make friends with cats. First of all, know that cats fall into three categories when they see each other.”

“Three?”

“The first is a higher level being, such as a parent or master, the second is a class relationship such as a friend, and the last is a lower level. If I had to add one more thing here, there would be a hostile existence. Where do you think you belong among these four?”

To that, Tae-ho Yoon replied as if it was natural.

“Isn’t it roughly like a friend?”

"you're welcome. You belong to the lower.”

“Maybe?”

Yoon Tae-ho and Lee Hye-young shook their heads as if they were absolutely not.

Heliantes said with a chuckle.

“If you recognize him as a friend, he’ll allow his head. At least be content that I don't see you as enemies."

“·················ogue.”

I want to deny it.

It sounded like something hitting the bone.

‘Am I all that much to Andy?’

I guess it's still below.

So you didn't allow me to stroke your hair?

Not only Yoon Tae-ho, but also Lee Hye-young had a somewhat hurt expression on their face.

Then Heliantes grinned and opened her mouth again.

“Of course, I can pet any cat without being friends.”

“Is that really true?”

"Of course. If you don't believe me, let me show you."

Heliantes smiled confidently, then she walked over to Andy and stroked her hair with her hand very naturally.

No, I was trying to stroke you.

Before his hand reached the top of his huge head.

“Nyaan!”

Shh!

don't touch

Andrew lifted her front paw lightly and pushed Heliantes' hand away.

For a moment, Heliantes tilted his head.

Looking at it, Yoon Tae-ho and Lee Hye-young made strange expressions.

“Doesn’t it look easy?”

“And he doesn’t like it when you try to touch it so recklessly.”

“Be quiet. It's been a long time since I've had it, so it's just because my hands haven't loosened up."

Helian Tess smirked and then with a serious expression he took his hand back to Andrew's head.

sparkle! sparkle!

In an instant, a dazzling light shone from his hand.

It is a loud light that cats will love.

Even the smile of a sunflower that looks friendly.

‘Wow!’

'awesome.'

Yoon Tae-ho and Lee Hye-young looked at the scene as if it was a strange thing.

This time, it seemed like it was going to be a success.

“Nyan!”

Don't bother me.

Pak Pak Pak!

Three rooms in a row!

was beaten by his hand.

Helian Tess was shocked, and she did not move, as if petrified, in the same position she was about to stroke Andrew.
