Return To Level Up

Ash headed to the Sahara with Jason and William Jennifer.

The blazing sun poured over your heads. But no one was affected by it.

“I’m starting to feel it.”

At Ash's words, Jason nodded his head.

"right. We are almost there.”

Jason's expression darkened slightly.

They worked really hard to find this rift.

The rift they passed was in Antarctica, which was out of hand.

Because they've been through it, they just suck it up no matter how hard they try.

Now, in the Antarctic Rift, there were Awokens belonging to the Defenders, and they consisted only of Awoken who had absolutely nothing to do with Jason, William, or Jennifer.

If they had been influenced by them even a little, it would be impossible to exert their influence properly because there was much more magical power taken from the rift than to shake the rift.

Anyway, I searched for other rifts, and what I managed to find was the Sahara rift.

After discovering that there was another rift in the Sahara, Jason and William did everything they could to find the rift.

Still, it took five years to find it.

It was a crack that I had barely found by scouring the Sahara.

However, Ash discovered the existence of a rift not long after entering the Sahara.

He seemed to have opened the crack and entered. But that stimulated Jason's inferiority complex.

As if to encourage that feeling of inferiority, Ash ignored Jason's guidance and walked forward.

towards the exact location of the crack.

how far did you walk A huge barracks built in the desert of heat began to appear.

It was where the Sahara Rift was located.

Ash continued to move and arrived at the barracks.

The guards of the barracks were frightened and stopped Ash, but Ash ignored them and passed them lightly and entered the barracks.

The Awoken tried to pursue him, but there was no need. Jason, who arrived sooner or later, stopped them.

Jason, William and Jennifer hurried into the barracks.

Ash was standing in front of a large pit in the center of the great barracks.

And such Ashe was surrounded by the Awoken.

"stop! Now everyone go and get some rest.”

Jason hurriedly ran and shouted.

The Awoken who found him looked puzzled, but soon nodded his head in agreement and backed away.

Because Jason's orders were absolute to them.

“Hey. Very well educated. Is training okay compared to just that?”

The eyebrows of the Awoken twitched at the words that training was so-so. It was a natural reaction because they were ridiculing them for being weak.

Seeing this, Jason sighed and shook his head.

“Everyone go and rest. He deserves to say something like that.”

"······Yes."

The Awoken answered reluctantly and retreated to the edge of the barracks. Normally, he would have rested in an extra bed, but now he was staring at Ash to see if he had any intention of doing so.

“Is playing soldier fun?”

Ash asked that question and smiled brightly. It was like a sneer, bringing Jason's mood down to the floor.

“It’s a soldier game. That's harsh."

“It’s serious. All the guys I've met so far are like that. What have you been doing all this time?”

“It’s only natural that you can’t use your power properly. It would not have been possible without Inama.”

Ash grinned at those words and looked down the pit.

Jason stared for a moment at Ash, who neither affirmed nor denied his words, then sighed and shook his head.

He didn't wake me up like that. If the Defenders hadn't been driven to this extent, they probably wouldn't have woken up until the plan was finished.

“Why does the crack look like that again?”

"Why? What's wrong?”

“You’re so docile. How the hell did you get rid of the old system? Oh! A little more stable now! Hey, is this weird? Looks like someone just got rid of one of the old systems!”

Seeing Ash's childlike joy, Jason bit his molars tightly.

“Why don’t you stop joking around and start slowly?”

“It’s a joke, I’m sorry. I'm really enjoying it. Do you think it's easy to see a scene like this?"

Jason took a deep breath to calm his emotions.

William and Jennifer were just watching them from a distance.

I decided to just leave it all to Jason because I thought it wouldn't look good if I intervene.

“So what now?”

As Jason asked calmly, Ash took a bite of his tongue, as if uninteresting, and stared at the sharply carved rift beneath the pit.

The floor was torn apart, and a huge universe was visible inside.

But Ash knew that the space was torn, not the floor.

Beyond this torn space, it looks like the universe, but it just looks like that, and in reality it was a space of nothingness.

“You were pouring out your magical energy to keep the rift from closing. It must have been a temporary solution.”

“Why don’t you stop evaluating and move now?”

Ash looked at Jason and grinned.

“It’s not fun to just work, so shall we talk about the past?”

Jason frowned.

“What kind of craft?”

“It’s a craft. I'm just doing this because of the joy of waking up after a long time. I am a loner.”

Jason forcefully swallowed his call not to bullshit again.

“So what do you want to say?”

“It’s the world we live in. It's gone now."

“Do I really need to talk about it now?”

Ash nodded her head as if yes.

“Our world is ruined. for the same reason as here. right?"

Jason stared at Ash with a firm expression on his face.

William and Jennifer also pricked up their ears with a look similar to Jason's.

Their world was also attacked by the demon realm.

Jason and William were great powers in their world. But it wasn't the best.

Even Ash wasn't the strongest.

In their world there were twenty men stronger than Ash.

Thanks to the strong twenty, he was able to endure for a long time.

However, the power of the demon realm was strong.

No, it would be correct to say that the demon realm that invaded them was a powerful demon realm.

He couldn't stop the destruction, but he could still escape.

And thanks to persistence for a long time, he obtained a lot of information about the invasion of the demon realm.

Based on that information, I wanted to lay the groundwork for building a new empire here on Earth.

In their world, he was a noble nobleman, but in this world he wanted to become an emperor.

“Isn’t it strange?”

“What is so strange?”

“This place on Earth is a very strange world. Didn't I tell you when I woke up? It was ruined once in the past.”

Jason, who was about to say what it was, bit his mouth. His dislike for Ash overlooked what he might have noticed sooner.

“Are you awake now?”

“Yeah, that’s weird. Has our world ever been destroyed? As you said, wasn't that the cause of the crack?"

Ash looked at Jason and grinned.

“How did I create the rift?”

Jason's expression hardened even more.

“Do you have the tools to create a rift?”

Ash flicked his finger, then pointed his finger at Jason.

"answer. I stole a little of the guy I used to create a rift in our world in the Demon Realm. you know I was involved in a lot of dangerous operations.”

“Operation for sealing cracks...!”

"right. I got it while doing that operation. Of course, the operation failed gracefully.”

“How many times can you use that tool?”

“Um… it’s more like a magic stone than a tool. A special manastone is filled with energy sources that can create rifts.”

Ash chuckled.

“Earth was unstable in the first place, so drilling new cracks didn’t take much effort. So it stayed like this.”

Ash picked up a dark stone and showed it.

"That is······."

Ash grinned and hurled the black stone into the crack.

“Can I just do that?”

“Then what did you want? Just watch.”

Jason's gaze turned to the crack. The crack was boiling violently.

In the torn earth, the black universe boiled and overflowed.

Every time the black energy that overflowed like that touched the ground, the crack widened.

Only one stone was inserted, but the size of the crack continued to grow and widen.

It was as if someone was forcing his hand into the crack and tearing it apart.

Ash looked at Jason and his eyes twinkled.

“By the way, do you know that this is a double-edged sword? The wider the rift, the easier it will be for Marvas to fall over.”

"Know. You don't have to worry about it, there's a countermeasure."

“It’s also Jason. Okay, then, shall we hear what the countermeasures are?”

Jason looked at Ash with calm eyes.

"it's you."

Ash's face contorted.

“Isn’t the joke an emissary?”

"I'm not joking. Who else can fight Marvas but you? We don't have to kill Marvas. Enough to negotiate.”

“Are you going to negotiate with the Demon King? Do you think that makes sense?”

“Okay. Marbas is not a strong demon lord.”

“Even if you are not strong, the Demon Lord is the Demon Lord. Can I deal with him? I don't think so?"

“Practice and raise your level. I'm prepared to jump over the wall two more times. Then you can Marbas will not be able to use his powers when he comes to Earth.”

Ash put his hand on his forehead.

"Sigh. How do you feel? I was just going to do this and have a good life..."

Jason smiled and asked Ash.

“Is there anything else left from that?”

“Crazy bastard. Adding one more will shorten the time it takes for Marbas to come to Earth. I can never afford it.”

“I don’t mean to write here.”

Ash's expression hardened. Seeing this, Jason continued without a smile.

“I’m going to use it for the rift we have crossed. Wouldn't it be better if that hole was widened for us to use our power properly?"

“You know it’s more dangerous, don’t you?”

Jason chuckled.

“You can control it. So it is, isn’t it?”

“It’s a lot smaller than the one I just put in.”

The smile on Jason's lips widened.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

"emergency! It's an emergency! Everyone get ready to go!”

At the Dungeon Breaker Headquarters, the Advanced Awakened shouted like that and ran to their respective teams.

Dungeon Breaker was undoubtedly the best guild in Korea, so when a dungeon-related incident occurred, they were the first to go out and run the most.

That was the case this time as well.

Suddenly, dungeons were popping up all over the country.

Of course, it was still mostly normal dungeons, but no one could predict when new type dungeons would pour out.

So, you must reduce the number of dungeons in a hurry before things get bigger.

Hwang Soo-young watched his team leaders move urgently and said to the deputy guild master next to him.

“Ask the Guardians for assistance. I also contacted the Awakened Management Office.”

“I already did. The Guardians have been confirmed that they will deploy all available guild members.”

“Good job. What about other guilds?”

“If it’s those guys, it’s okay. You must be running so hard that the soles of your feet are sweating right now.”

"Good. Let's go too.”

“I waited. Heh heh.”

“Don’t laugh like that. Because I have no luck.”

“It’s good, but you’re like this again. Heh heh.”

“Oh, why are there all these guys around me?”

Hwang Soo-young grumbled like that and moved quickly.

“Where can we go?”

“Can’t I go with you?”

“You must protect the guild. I go alone.”

“You can go to Euljiro. There's a new type out there, and I've got everything ready for the Master to deal with.”

Preparation was a negotiation with the Awakening Administration.

The Awoken Administration still owned the rights to the dungeon, and it also had the right to distribute it.

Of course, it was meaningless because Dungeon Breaker stood tall.

"Good. I need to level up a lot this time. I also wanted to go to Japan. Sheesh.”

Hwang Soo-young was burned by the news that the Guardians' elites who went to Japan had crossed level 1000.

Because she hasn't reached level 1000 yet.

The decrease in dungeons was also a problem, and the low level of monsters was also a problem.

But now that a lot of dungeons have been created, she will be able to exceed 1000 levels herself.

The second guild master, who was close to the moving Hwang Soo-young, explained the current situation diligently.

“It looks like the whole world is now covered with dungeons. I'm upset It hasn't exploded anywhere yet."

“You have to deal with it before it explodes. This time, I will go abroad after I clear up all of Korea.”

"no."

“Okay.”

Hwang Soo-young left those words and went straight into the dungeon of Eulji-ro, which had already arrived.

The second guild master looked at the dungeon that swallowed Hwang Soo-young and made a troubled expression.

“Anyway, it’s really hard to get a Master.”
