Solo Leveling (Only I Level Up) - Chapter 461

“For fear of the power I possess?”

The man was startled, and quickly waved his hand.

“No! Absolutely not!”

The man quickly spread out the prepared newspaper in front of Cheng Jin-Woo.

Cheng Jin-Woo slowly browsed the news reports that took up an entire side.

There was a very familiar face on it.

That was Norma, Mrs. Sino, who was active as an “upgrader” in the previous time and space.

It was her prophecy that was reported on the news.

“Soon, the **** of death will descend on this land.”

Seeing the words “God of Death”, Cheng Jin-Woo couldn’t help raising his eyebrows.

“In the lost time and space, she was not such a powerful fortune teller, but after contacting our world, her life has changed.”

In every report about her, Cheng Jin-Woo’s eyes stopped at the part “suddenly opened the spiritual eye”.

two years ago.

It coincides with the timing of using the god’s instrument to turn back the time. It seems that this is not accidental.

“That is to say… Will my existence cause such changes afterward?”

“Yes, king. “

After seeing Cheng Jin-Woo calm down, the man let out a breath.

“Just in case, the rulers will provide you with a place to rest if you wish, the king.”

“…”

Cheng Jin-Woo leaned back in his chair.

He still didn’t feel any malice.

This man and all the rulers he represents.

They all seemed to be suggestions to Seong Jin-Woo out of good intentions.

but.…..

‘Talking about this kind of thing on the first day back home?’

Cheng Jin-Woo, who was originally excited to be able to go home, only felt very bitter.

Now I don’t want to talk about these things.

Cheng Jin-Woo did not hide his disappointment.

“Could you come and see me next time?”

“…as you wish, great king. “

After saluting respectfully to the great man in front of him who ended the long war between the king and the ruler, the man stood up.

A dark business card was left on the desktop, and the man left.

Maybe.

It might be a silent invitation to contact him after he has collected his mood.

Looking at the business card, Cheng Jin-Woo smiled bitterly.

He casually put his business card in his school uniform coat pocket, the anticipation and excitement of finally returning to his hometown had disappeared like bubbles, and countless thoughts were intricately intertwined in his mind.

‘If all living things existed with a purpose…’

Well, one thing is certain.

As the role of the Shadow King, I have completed my mission.

Prevent strange phenomena from appearing in the world and stop the aggression of kings.

The purpose has been achieved.

So the huge power that is no longer useful is like exhausted nuclear waste, just a bunch of troublesome burdens.

In this case.

Cheng Jin-Woo suddenly felt puzzled.

‘Then did I end up becoming an unnecessary existence here?’

Just when Cheng Jinyu thought of this, he suddenly saw a person passing by the ice cream shop.

As if being pulled by something, Cheng Jin-Woo subconsciously opened the door and walked out.

From now on, can I, as the shadow king, continue to stay here?

Although still hesitating, still holding doubts…

‘But… if there is a reason why you must exist here…’

The girl in tracksuit who was passing by the shop stopped.

A particularly pleasant smell came from the ice cream shop that was passing by, so she turned and looked there.

And there, a teenager whom he had never met was staring at him.

‘Huh? Did ice cream smell so good before?’

The girl who stopped for a few glances continued to run forward with doubts.

Seong Jin-Woo looked at the girl’s back and laughed.

The people I love are still here.

People who love me are here too.

There are good enough reasons to stay here.

Find other reasons why you can stay here and exist here.

Cheng Jin-Woo thought so in his heart.

Chapter 248 [Fanwai 5] Jagrit’s Memory

The first time I saw him was in a different space created by the power of the lord.

My task is to test him.

Although the lord just said that he wanted to know whether that person was qualified to be his vessel.

but I know.

This is the last order my lord gave me.

After forgiving the rulers, the lord lost interest in war. And there is definitely a reason for such a lord to show such interest in a human being.

At that time, I had already thought of parting from my lord.

However, the command of the lord is absolute.

Even if I can ask the Lord about his intentions, I can’t keep him.

I can only follow his orders.

That’s all I can do.

In this way, after most of the power was sealed, I stood alone in the different space created for testing.

‘Do people here call this space a dungeon?’

In this different space built on the basis of the meeting room in the royal city, there is a tall throne placed in the depths.

Although it has become blurred, I can still recall things from the human period.

I looked around the interior of the space.

‘Sure enough…Using the power of the lord, it is possible to make this place so delicate. ‘

From the entrance to the platform of the throne, to the stone pillars on both sides, I can’t help but marvel at the designer’s ability.

The meticulous mind of the designer is gradually turning the human body into a body that can withstand the power of the lord.

At this moment, I felt a person slowly approaching here.

‘So fast?……’

That person came sooner than expected, I felt a little flustered, but I still walked up to the throne immediately and sat down.

However, a sense of disobedience arises spontaneously.

“…”

After sitting down, I realized that sitting in this position was a bit too bold.

The person who is going to be tested has the consciousness of the master, is it really good for the master to see me sitting on the throne?

This distress bothered me deeply.

‘……’

At last.

I felt that I still couldn’t let him see this presumptuous side of me, so I quickly left the throne, and then hid behind a pillar closest to me.

Crunch squeak squeak one!

The door opened at the nick of time, and because it was very dark around, he didn’t seem to notice me who was flustered.

How lucky.

The master’s test plan was almost ruined because of my mistake.

I breathed out a sigh of relief, and when he was ten steps away from me, I slowly stepped out from behind the pillar and blocked his way.

‘……!’

I felt his tension in the silence.

He is a young man.

The way I looked at him was certainly not friendly.

‘This person is chosen by the Lord…’

Even if this is the last task assigned to me by the lord, I must not be negligent in the slightest.

If he is not qualified, he will die at my hands.

My fighting spirit is burning.

But suddenly, that young man clenched his fists in front of me.

‘……?’

Is he planning to knock me down with his bare hands?

To be human is to be brave.

But such thoughts are only fleeting.

To fight him fairly, I removed my cloak and dropped my weapon.

‘……!’

Why is this person so surprised.

Although his eyes full of fighting spirit are very suitable for him, but does he really have the strength to match his eyes?

let me see……

Then I knew the answer very quickly.

“Cough!”

Boom.

With little effort I made, he knelt down in front of me.
