Chapter 49: Welcome to the Kindergarten of Destruction! (49) / 773 |

5,000 years ago.
“The noble wolf who hunts gods, Fenrir-nim, has returned!”
“This time it didn’t even take a month, did it?”
“As expected of the great Fenrir-nim!”
Thud. Thud.
As Fenrir, having destroyed an entire world, returned to the base of Destruction and walked proudly while receiving the praise of his subordinates,
Jingle. Jingle.
What is that?
When Fenrir looked in the direction of the sound,
“Hueng. Hueng. Noble wolf Fenrir-nim who hunts gods, how can I become strong like the great Fenrir-nim?!”
There was a white snake, much smaller than even Fenrir’s pinky toe.
If not for the bell sound, its voice and size were so tiny that one could have stepped on it without even realizing. The floor where the white snake was standing quickly became soaked with the snake’s tears.
“That one recently lost its entire clan and defected to our side. Should I remove it?”
Alice, the Mesmerizing Spider, who had approached Fenrir, said.
Jingle-jingle. Jingle-jingle.
At Alice’s words, the bell rang loudly.
It wasn’t intentional, because the white snake was trembling with fear, its tail, shaped like a downward-hanging bell, shook violently.
“No. Grrrr. Do you want to become strong?”
Fenrir stared at the white snake and asked.
Normally, he would have ignored or simply killed it, but for some whimsical reason, Fenrir decided to respond to the white snake.
Perhaps it was to lessen the guilt about his clan’s revenge, which he himself couldn’t accomplish.
“Huu… eng? Yes! I want to become strong! I want to become strong and take revenge for my clan! Those bastards massacred my clan to obtain our bells!”
The white snake replied in a desperate voice, and
“Then I shall give it to you. The strength to avenge.”
Fenrir shared a portion of his power. It was a minuscule amount to Fenrir, like a speck of dust, but for the white snake, it was more than enough to take revenge for its clan.
Jingle-jingle. Jingle-jingle.
“Sniff. Sniff. Noble wolf Fenrir-nim who hunts gods, thank you for giving me strength!”
The bells didn’t only ring in fear, they rang in joy too, as the white snake vigorously wagged its tail and thanked Fenrir, shedding tears profusely.
Fenrir, unlike a moment ago, found the noisy bell sound strangely pleasant.
“Such a crybaby. So, crybaby, what is your name?”
“Akasha! I’m Akasha of the Rattlesnake Clan!”
In response to Fenrir’s question, Akasha answered cheerfully, and
“Alright. Crybaby Akasha. Go and avenge your clan.”
“Yes!”
Akasha left to take revenge in the world where it had been.
About 2,000 years after parting ways with Akasha.
“Noble wolf Fenrir-nim who hunts gods, how have you been?!”
A gigantic red snake approached Fenrir and greeted him.
“Who are you?”
Fenrir asked the red snake he had never seen before, and
“It’s me! Akasha, whom the great Fenrir-nim once shared power with!”
The red snake replied.
“Ah. Crybaby Akasha….”
Only then did Fenrir sense his own power within Akasha’s body.
However, its appearance had changed so drastically that he couldn’t recognize its former self at all.
It no longer cried, had grown in size, and its once pure white scales had turned blood-red, as if stained with blood.
And above all…
“The bell is gone.”
The tail that once made cheerful sounds with the bell had been cut off.
“Yes. It kept ringing loudly during fights, so I cut it off.”
“…I see.”
At Akasha’s response, Fenrir somehow felt bitter.
“Then I must go destroy other worlds, so I’ll be going.”
Leaving behind their brief reunion, the two parted ways again.
And in the present.
Thinking back, I probably shouldn’t have given her the power to take revenge.
Blackie thought, watching Akasha, who had been completely consumed by vengeance and the power of destruction and had become a monster.
But don’t worry! Great Blackie will return you to your original self!
Blackie flew toward Akasha with a bold expression.
However.
Shalarang!
Caw!
Ppiyak!
Mumu!
Blackie’s flight speed was still slow as he was carried by Kkabi, Karurur, Shari, and Mubalchil.
In the meantime.
Kueng!
Giant Cuengi put Akasha in a headlock.
-Grr! Let me go!
Akasha struggled to break free from Cuengi, but
“Cuengi! Well done! Well done! Well done!”
“Puhuhut. Cuengi’s doing great, meow!”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Power of magic… Strength boost! Power up!”
[Hehe. You’re doing great!]
(Pip-pip! Cuengi hyung-nim, you’re so cool!)
With the cheers from Sejun and his group and Iona’s support magic, Cuengi was full of courage.
Kueng-!
Cuengi’s squeezing strength became even stronger, and
-Keugh…
Akasha eventually lost consciousness.
Kking…
[Poor Akasha…]
Still flying toward Akasha, Blackie offered his heartfelt condolences.
A short while later.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! This one used to be a subordinate of great Blackie! Great Blackie will give it proper training!]
Thud.
Blackie and his subordinates, who had arrived late, headbutted Akasha.
While Blackie was giving Akasha some mental re-education,
[You have used Emergency Rescue Service.][Insurance premiums will increase by 10% starting next month.]
[There are no remaining Emergency Rescue Service coupons.]
[Would you like to purchase one Emergency Rescue Service coupon for 300 billion Tower Coins?]
“Uhehehe. Yes!”
[System Eok-Samchiri] successfully extorted more money from Uren again today. He had to cover the budget hole without Sejun noticing.
[System Eok-Samchiri] was truly grateful that Uren existed.
“Cuengi, put this one in the void storage.”
Kueng!
At Sejun’s request, Cuengi picked up Akasha and stored it in the Void Storage, and the rift to the other world that had been blocked by Akasha’s tail quietly closed.
Thanks to that, a world that was on the verge of destruction escaped Akasha’s clutches.
At that moment,
[You have saved <Earth (Lv. 5)> and <Erebus (Lv. 8)> from the Remnant of Destruction: Akasha, the snake that strangles the world.]A message appeared in front of Sejun.
Sejun waited for the subsequent reward message, but
“……”
There was no additional message.
You’re really going to end it without a reward?!
“Eok-Samchiri, do you want to be impeached?”
When Sejun threatened [System Eok-Samchiri] in a low voice,
[As a reward for saving <Earth (Lv. 5)>, you have gained 1% evolution experience for <Earth (Lv. 5)>.][As a reward for saving <Erebus (Lv. 8)>, you have gained 0.3% evolution experience for <Erebus (Lv. 8)>.]
[Converting 0.3% evolution experience of level 8 world to level 5 world evolution experience…]
[System Eok-Samchiri] hurriedly printed the messages.
Haha. Wouldn’t it have been better to just do it earlier?
By subduing Akasha, Sejun was able to gain 3.4% evolution experience for Earth.
Once the situation settled down.
“Sejun, where are you~?!”
“Daddy~!”
He heard Aileen and Taecho’s voices from above, calling for Sejun. It seemed they had just come out of the women’s changing room.
Sejun and his party hurried back down, and
“Sejun, how do I look?”
“…….”
Sejun stared blankly at Aileen in her swimsuit. He didn’t say a word, but his expression was more than enough of a response.
He had asked Serang, Se-dol’s girlfriend, to prepare a plain black swimsuit, knowing Aileen preferred black, but the moment Aileen put it on, the plain swimsuit was no longer plain.
She’s my girlfriend, but she’s way too beautiful.
I must have saved not just a country in my past life, but the entire world. At least ten times.
‘Thank you, my past life!’
While Sejun was feeling grateful to his past life.
“Sejun, but where did you go?”
“Yeah! Daddy, where were you?! You told me to check on Mommy and disappeared!”
Aileen and Taecho asked, and
“Ah. Uren suddenly showed up…”
He explained what had just happened.
“But Aileen, why were you late?”
“Ah. It was harder to put on than I thought…”
Aileen turned around and showed her back as she spoke.
Unlike the plain front, the back of the swimsuit was open all the way down to her waist, and thin black straps precariously wrapped around Aileen’s snowy white back.
Because it was a swimsuit that had to be tied at the back with strings, it had taken time to wear.
“Taecho helped Mommy!”
Taecho shouted proudly.
And then.
“…….”
Serang, nice!
You being born was a blessing!
Sejun was once again dazed. This time, even his face turned bright red.
“Meow?! Chairman Park, why is your face suddenly turning red, meow?!”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Blood is rushing to Sejun-nim’s face, and his blood pressure is rising! If it goes any higher, Sejun-nim’s face might explode!”
[Sejun-nim, your nose is bleeding! Nooo!]
Kueng! Kueng!
[Dad! Your face must not explode!]
(Pip-pip. Sejun-nim, relax!)
Thanks to that, the group panicked, thinking something was wrong with Sejun’s health, and immediately began emergency treatment.
A moment later.
“So, what should we do first for fun?”
With his excitement calmed down by foot massage from the group, Sejun officially started playing in the water with them.
For reference, Piyot and the rest stayed behind, saying they were too tired after being chased by Akasha and needed to rest.
“Let’s start with the water slide!”
So the first ride they tried was the water slide.
However.
“This is way too slow, meow!”
It was too slow and boring.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Shall I use a speed-enhancing spell for you?”
“Oh, that sounds good. Do it.”
Sejun also found it boring, so he asked Iona for a spell.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Power of magic…”
Boom!
Underestimating Iona’s magic power had serious consequences. The water slide collapsed from being unable to withstand the speed.
As the water slide broke apart, Sejun immediately called Han Tae-jun.
“Hahaha. It’s fine. Actually, this works out. My nephew was planning to remodel it soon anyway.”
Han Tae-jun said it was fine. Though whether it truly was, who knows.
After finishing his call with Han Tae-jun, Sejun went diving with the group.
“Huhut. Now this is a real superhero landing!”
“Puhuhut. Great hybrid Chairman Park, witness this one’s superhero landing, meow!”
Kueng!
[Dad, Cuengi’s doing a superhero landing too!]
Sejun, Theo, and Cuengi played by diving in. Thankfully, all three of them controlled their strength, so the pool wasn’t destroyed.
At that moment.
“Sejun, I wanna try too!”
I need to show Sejun my superhero landing!
Aileen, who had practiced her superhero landing hard with the other young dragons, stepped up, wanting to show it to Sejun.
“Aileen, are you sure…?”
Sejun asked with a worried voice.
5.251.205.82
“Yeah, I’m fine. But step back a bit.”
“Okay.”
At Aileen’s words, Sejun quickly backed away about 50 meters and placed Theo and Cuengi in front of him.
“Here I go!”
Whoong.
Aileen soared into the sky and dropped into the center of the pool.
“Su-per-hero landing!”
She landed perfectly in an awesome pose.
Crash!
Although she slightly failed at controlling her strength, and a five-meter radius was blown away.
“Aileen, that was seriously amazing!”
Sejun ran up and praised Aileen with a deeply moved expression.
“Hehehe. Right? I did the superhero landing well, didn’t I?”
“Yeah! You did great! And your strength control was perfect, wasn’t it?”
Sejun had expected the impact to blow away at least 50 meters, so he was genuinely surprised.
“I practiced a lot on strength control… just to go on a date with you, Sejun.”
Keuh. What a kind-hearted (?) woman to have as a girlfriend!
Sejun was moved by Aileen’s words.
I can’t let Aileen be the only one trying!
I’ll become even stronger too!
He once again resolved to grow stronger today. For the 3,007th time.
