Dimensional Sovereign

Chapter 49: Evil Lair (1)

Lights flashed from the spheres as they continued talking.

"Kikiki! Decide carefully, Sovereign Lucan! As soon as you refuse, 200 creatures will turn into your enemies. But if you give us 10,000 nodes, we can be friends.”

"Kukuku! We can be either friends or enemies. The moment you become our enemy, we will give information about you to another sovereign.”

Then a message appeared.

[Do you want to accept the kajels’ offer? Yes/No]

[If you accept, your friendship with the kajels will rise but charisma will permanently drop by 1.]

Kang-jun had no intention of giving 10,000 nodes in response to their threats.

Furthermore, charisma would permanently decrease by one and that wasn’t worth it.

Still, it would be a problem if they told other sovereigns about Kang-jun.

At that moment, Keirun appeared and spoke to him.

(Lord! Don’t accept. It is just a plot. They are always trying something like this. Once you donate to them, they will keep using pretexts to rake in more money. In the beginning, some sovereigns escape from a crisis with the help. In the end, the sovereigns would be robbed of everything.)

Kang-jun just laughed coldly.

(I wasn’t thinking of accepting their offer. I will just get rid of them before they tell another sovereign.)

At that time, the spherical bodies once again threatened Kang-jun.

“Sovereign Lucan! Are you going to make this easy or difficult? If you receive our help then you will be in a better position than other sovereigns.”

"Kikiki! Only 10,000 nodes! Just promise to give it to us. If you don’t have the money right now, you can pay some of it later.”

Instead of replying, Kang-jun sent a look towards Germuz.

'You take the one on the left. I’ll go to the right!’

Germuz noticed quickly. He immediately ran with all his power towards the sphere on the left.

Kung kung kung kung!

Like a long jump athlete, Germuz jumped into the air. Like a lightning bolt, he grabbed one of the spheres and ripped off the tentacles.

Wooduk! Oduduk!

“Kuoook! H-How dare you!”

The sphere tried to breathe out fire from its mouth. However, Germuz had already seen that attack and slammed the sphere against the ground.

Kwatang!

“Kukuk! I won’t be hit by another fire.”

Bam bam bam -

The sphere turned into a lump of meat and went limp from the merciless barrage of attacks.

Thus, one sphere died.

In the meantime, Kang-jun had used Heavenly Cut against the other sphere.

“Kuook! Y-you will see soon, Lucan...! You will regret today’s decision. All the sovereigns nearby will find out about you...”

The spherical body cursed Kang-jun and disappeared.

Kang-jun stared after it with a grim expression.

"They can’t just come from nowhere. I need to find that place so I can chase him.”

They had come back after being killed last time, so he couldn’t feel relieved.

Keirun nodded.

"Their lair can’t be too far. I will look for them."

At those words, his eyes started to shine weirdly.

[The military adviser Keirun has activated the skill ‘Navigation.’]

[The search has succeeded.]

[The lair of the kajels will be displayed on the map.]

The 3D map showing the nearby terrain appeared in front of Kang-jun.

There were numerous buildings.

One of the buildings had dark red smoke coming from it.

Keirun smiled with satisfaction and said.

"Right over there. Kwangho building!"

"That is surprisingly close. But how did you find this?”

Kang-jun was amazed by Keirun’s power. Keirun laughed.

“Huhu, if I can’t do something like this then how am I qualified to be the military adviser? I will show you more things in the future.”

"Okay, I will look forward to it.”

The Kwangho building had eight floors and was located in front of the Eco and Dain buildings occupied by Kang-jun.

The tallest building that Kang-jun occupied was the seven storey Dain Building where Germuz was the boss. Now it was time to capture a taller building.

Kang-jun examined his subordinates.

"Keirun, I will go there. All of you should listen well to Germuz’s words.”

Then Keirun said.

“Lord! If you go alone then you might suffer from their magic. I think you should go with Germuz. Germuz will sufficiently cover your back.”

Then Germuz laughed.

"Kuahahaha! It is like the military adviser said. Lord! Please take me.”

In fact, Germuz was polite to Kang-jun but rude to Keirun.

Keirun just gave a unique smile.

The moment Germuz saw the smile, he felt like Keirun was somehow ignoring him.

Of course, Keirun never ignored Germuz. Rather, he was cheerful about the additional power.

Germuz still didn’t like Keirun for some reason. It was a type of complex animosity.

Germuz felt opposed to anyone else in a position of power. But now he felt slightly better towards Keirun. Keirun laughed as he looked at Germuz.

'Heh, he is a big and simple guy.’

Keirun was proficient in dealing with people like Germuz. It wasn’t because of his talent as a military adviser, but his experience in Hwanmong.

‘Even though his attitude might be hostile at first, he is okay once you get close to him.’

Rather, the one that was difficult to be friendly with was Rodiam.

Rodiam looked like a cute cat on the surface but he didn’t easily give his heart to anyone.

However, he was never rude to Keirun who was the military adviser. He would just maintain the distance in his heart.

Of course, this was the case with Keirun.

Only Kang-jun could win the hearts of monsters such as Germuz and Rodiam.

It was the strongest ability that Kang-jun had.

His charisma was high enough to even capture the heart of Keirun, who was experienced in Hwanmong.

At that time, Rodiam rushed in front of Kang-jun.

“Lord! Take me too, ong. I will use heal, ong.”

"Heal? You can use healing magic?”

"The power isn’t very good but it will be helpful when fighting monsters, ong.”

Then Rodiam stretched out his hands and recited the spell.

A bright light emerged from Rodiam’s hands and wrapped around Kang-jun.

[You have received a recovery aura.]

[3 health points will be restored every second.]

[It will last for 15 seconds.]

“Oh!”

Kang-jun exclaimed after seeing the messages.

45 points in 15 seconds! It was better than an inferior health potion.

Especially since he didn’t have the time to drink potions when encountering a strong boss. It would be very reassuring if Rodiam was with him.

"Okay. That will be helpful.”

Kang-jun patted Rodiam’s head. Rodiam was in a good mood and rubbed his cheeks against Kang-jun’s hand.

"Leave it to me, ong.”

“Then let’s go.”

Kang-jun headed to the Kwangho building with Germuz and Rodiam. Then something popped into his mind and he stopped walking.

"Oh, wasn’t there a scroll last time?”

"This scroll? I held it for Lord.”

Keirun pulled out the scroll that he had forgotten about. Kang-jun received it.

[Shining Scroll]

It was the scroll that dropped when Germuz killed the orcs.

'What will come out?’

It would be useful if it was a combat skill like Heavenly Cut.

That was the reason why Kang-jun stopped for the scroll before going to fight the monsters.

However, something unexpected came out when he opened the scroll.

[You can interfere with the business of a hostile sovereign. Once this skill is used, customers won’t easily gather in the target area...]

[You have learnt the skill ‘Drive Away Customers (Inferior).]

"Drive Away Customers?”

Kang-jun was disappointed. Of course, management skills were useful in reality but he currently wanted combat skills.

However, Keirun was actually glad.

“Lord! Don’t be disappointed. Drive Away Customers is a very important skill. At first it isn’t very good. But if the rating is raised, you can deal a huge blow to the enemy sovereign."

Kang-jun smiled.

"Then I'm glad. How do I raise the rating? Do I need to use the management skill a lot?”

"Yes, it is much faster when using it in related fields. And if you’re not in the field or hunting monsters, reading will give extraordinary benefits.”

"Reading?"

Kang-jun asked incredulously. Keirun spoke with a firm expression.

"In the meantime, Lord couldn’t afford it because there was no money. Now that there is a foundation, we can delegate the chores and businesses to trustworthy people.”

"Delegate?”

"Yes, it is important to recruit talented people. Don’t forget to read.”

"Okay. On that note. I will be going now.”

"Yes, Lord! Be careful.”

The military adviser Keirun’s advice. Meanwhile, Kang-jun was thinking it over in his head.

Finding talented people to take care of business!

Kang-jun had never thought about it. It would be a good idea to hire talented people in reality.

Anyway, that was something he would worry about when he exited this world.

Kang-jun arrived at the Kwangho building.

[Kwangho building is the territory of the kajels.]

Do you want to enter? Yes/No]

‘Yes! Enter.’

As always, there was a barrier. At the same time, some slime-like monsters emerged from the ground.

Slime. Kang-jun swung his sword at them.

"I will take care of them while you smash the barrier!”

"Yes, please leave it to me."

Germuz started using the barrier as a punching bag.

Kwang kwang! Kwang kwang kwang kwang!

The barrier around the eight storey building was quickly smashed by Germuz’s enormous power.

Meanwhile, all the slimes had been killed by Kang-jun.

[Mission 10] Occupy the Kwangho building and defeat the kajels!

-Compensation: Experience, 3000 nodes, 10 Essence of Darkness

A mission appeared.

At the same time, ugly slimes appeared on the 1st floor.

“Kuwaaaaaah! Kill!”

Germuz roared and rushed forward. Rodiam had transformed into the minotaur.

The monsters on the 1st floor were easy so there was no need for Rodiam’s healing.

“Kuwaaaaaah!”

“Kuwaaaaaahong!”

A minotaur and ogre were on either side of me.

Of course, he wasn’t a real minotaur but he still caused fear.

[12 nodes have been gained.]

[18 nodes have been gained.]

[One Essence of Darkness has been acquired.]

[13 nodes have been gained.]

He got money and japtem.

'This is great. But I can’t stay still.’

At this rate, he would lose all his experience to them.

Kang-jun was about to rush towards the monsters as well.

“Hoh! An ogre and a transformed minotaur. It is quite decent.”

A voice was suddenly heard from behind him.

Who was it?

Kang-jun was startled and looked back.

A mysterious woman with blue hair was there.

However, the red wings on her back indicated that she wasn’t human.

Of course, not being human didn’t necessarily mean she was evil.

“Who are you?”

The woman laughed.

"Lotuna.”

"Lotuna?”

"Don’t be afraid, little sovereign. I just went for for a walk because I was bored.”

She approached the wary Kang-jun.

"Ohuhut...! How about it? Should I help you out?”

Kang-jun was instantly dazzled by her smile.

“Hohohoho!"

He felt a strange urge to embrace Lotuna. A pulse was suddenly released in his body.

‘Ugh! What is this?’

It was obvious. She had used something on him!

‘Heavenly Cut!’

Kang-jun reflexively used his skill.

Flash! Chwaack!

The feeling of cutting something. Lotuna stepped back in surprise.

'Only a light scratch?’

Kang-jun was startled.

The skill that split apart the kajels only gave her a light scratch!

Flash! Flash!

Kang-jun didn’t spare his black magic energy and used it continuously.

Pak! Seokeok!

He missed once. The second hit!

This time it seemed like she was cut properly. One of Lotuna’s wings was severed by Heavenly Cut.

"Ugh! This is ridiculous!”

Lotuna stepped back with an expression of astonishment. Kang-jun didn’t miss this chance.

"Just die!”

The Warrior’s Sword flashed. Lotuna panicked and faded away.
