Chapter 120
Kwon Jia thought that she would have to fight her way out until she left the building.
She knew that the Association had surrounded the place, and even if she tried to run away desperately, there would be so clashes.
But Yu-hyun said it was okay.
He seed confident, but she didn’t know why. When she ca out and saw the scene outside, she realized what he ant.
Contrary to Kwon Jia’s worry that they would be imdiately besieged, there were not many Association collectors heading towards the entrance of the worlds of thoughts.
Instead, their attention was focused on the outside, where the new arrivals from the Twilight Veil clan were.
The source of Yu-hyun’s confidence was them.
‘Did he know this would happen beforehand?’
Kwon Jia looked at him with disbelief.
He had done so unbelievable things before, but she didn’t think he could keep doing it.
He started a fight between the Twilight Veil and Hanul, called the Association to arrest them, and even cleared the worlds of thoughts.
She thought that was amazing enough. No one else could have achieved such a feat.
But he had seen beyond that.
Unlike Kwon Jia, who was astonished, Kang Hye-rim looked at Yu-hyun with sparkling eyes.
‘As expected, Yu-hyun is amazing!’
She hadn’t been with him much lately, but she was the one who benefited the most from him.
She had so doubts and worries about his thods at first.
But since he never failed when he did what he said, she ca to accept whatever he planned.
Especially, when she saw that his prediction was right again this ti, she felt an infinite admiration for him.
Yu-hyun himself didn’t know their thoughts at all. He looked at the Association and Twilight Veil people outside and sighed with relief.
‘As expected, they ca.’
The last part was almost a gamble.
It was his plan to make the Association rush to the scene, but he wasn’t sure how the Twilight Veil would react afterwards.
If they pretended not to know and stayed out of it, he would have to fight his way out of the Association’s siege.
That could have exposed his identity that he tried so hard to hide.
Fortunately? Was it luck?
Leaving one of the Twilight Veil clan mbers who guarded this place worked well.
‘I was worried that they might not risk their lives, but they didn’t need to.’
The Twilight Veil seed to have decided to cut ties with the Association completely.
They showed it by coming out like that.
They probably planned to destroy the evidence here and then show up at the hearing later.
It was a crazy idea that no sane person would do, but it was possible for them who grew up from illegal roots.
‘This is a success.’
Yu-hyun’s gamble ended with a final curtain on the stage.
“Wow!”
Most of the people on the scene didn’t see Yu-hyun.
The engravings on their hats interfered with their perception.
But everyone saw clearly that the entrance to the worlds of thoughts disappeared.
The result was his doing.
The Twilight Veil clan mbers shouted and ran towards the scene.
“Stop them!”
The Association collectors stepped forward to block them.
“Let’s go!”
Yu-hyun saw that and told Kwon Jia and Kang Hye-rim.
They nodded right away, and the three turned around and ran outside.
“Where do you think you’re going!”
Of course, there were so who tried to stop them.
Apart from the Association team guarding the entrance, so were waiting inside to capture Yu-hyun’s group.
They didn’t want to let go of Yu-hyun’s group, who were witnesses of this situation.
They couldn’t see their faces or recognize them, but they felt their presence faintly.
They were not low-level collectors, but rather decent ones.
“I don’t know who you are, but I won’t let you go!”
“I’m sorry about that.”
Yu-hyun answered casually as he dodged a hand reaching for his collar.
He grabbed his sleeve and swung him back.
The arm stretched out and used his own montum to slam into the ground.
Boom!
“Ugh!”
A clean takedown knocked out the Association collector.
A few more who ca after were easily subdued by Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia.
The three looked at each other and nodded at the sa ti.
They ran through the only open entrance, breaking through the special material wall that blocked people’s sight. The wall was nothing but a paper tiger for them.
“Damn it!”
Yoo Sung Ah felt Yu-hyun’s group escaping through her senses, but she couldn’t chase them.
She was busy holding back the Twilight Veil clan mbers.
‘I want to go after them, but if I leave this place, they will break through!’
The number of Association collectors dispatched was 40.
The Twilight Veil clan mbers had almost twice as many, 80.
Most of them were so pathetic that they could be run over by a car, but there were so real ones mixed in, and they were too many.
“Hey, you bastards! Did you think we would let you do whatever you want?”
In the end, Yoo Sung Ah had no choice but to make a decision while gritting her teeth.
Should she chase the three who were unknown and invisible, or should she at least protect the evidence on the scene by holding back the Twilight Veil?
The uncertain forr or the more promising latter.
She naturally chose the latter.
Whoosh!
A red aura started to flow from her body.
It seeped into her flesh and enhanced her strength.
Yoo Sung Ah’s trait was called [Lady of the Bright Moon].
Another na for Lady of the Bright Moon was Lady Park.
The story of Lady Park, the protagonist of a classic novel from the Joseon era, was the power she possessed.
“Get out of my way!”
She was determined to vent her anger at the enemies in front of her for letting Yu-hyun’s group escape.
Using her trait was a bit of an overreaction, but they were scoundrels who challenged the authority. She had no intention of going easy on them.
“Co on!”
Boom!
A giant stone statue rose up around her.
The General of Heaven and Earth and the Female General of the Underworld stood guard as if they were protecting the entrance to the worlds of thoughts that had disappeared.
So strong ones from the Twilight Veil also stepped forward and activated their traits.
That’s how a fight that involved the fate of an organization broke out in a construction site where no one could enter.
***
The next day, newspapers and news reported on the incident that happened yesterday.
[Twilight Veil clan! They secretly owned a worlds of thoughts!]
[The behavior of clans that ignore the law! Can we just watch this outrageous act?]
[Twilight Veil clan leader Do Gang Joon. ‘We don’t know anything about it.’]
[Another clan involved in the scene, Hanul?]
It was an incident that made the whole nation noisy.
In the end, the Twilight Veil failed to erase the evidence on the scene.
It was because of Yoo Sung Ah, the mad dog of the Association.
Even if the worlds of thoughts disappeared, there would be traces of its existence on the scene.
They would not disappear unless soone tried to erase them.
The Twilight Veil tried to do that.
‘But they failed.’
Yu-hyun chuckled inwardly.
The Twilight Veil had to pay for what they had done.
The rumor had spread uncontrollably, and the Association, who had been grinding their teeth at them, drew their swords.
They imdiately started a tax investigation.
This was not sothing that the Twilight Veil could do alone.
There must have been so politicians involved with them, and so companies that sponsored them from behind.
The Association wanted to root them out completely with this opportunity.
‘Hanul is not easy either.’
The Twilight Veil was a problem, but Hanul also suffered for being involved here.
They exposed their secret unit called Mobile 3, which they had raised secretly.
They also revealed their connection with the Twilight Veil.
The person in charge said that it was a unilateral act by a man nad Jeon Kwang Seok, but there was a question as to how an internal employee who was not a collector could lead such a large number of people.
Most people guessed that there was soone who gave orders from behind.
‘They are desperately playing dumb, but they can’t cover up the fact that they made a secret team without telling the governnt.’
Hanul was also expected to be investigated to so extent.
And most of their secretly raised collectors were either killed or captured, so they were not lightly damaged either.
Considering that their clan leader was summoned to a hearing and interrogated, it was hard to calculate the collateral damage.
Knowing that fact, Baek Seo Ryun looked at the internet article and leaned back on his chair with a relieved expression.
“Wow! That’s aweso! It feels like my ten-year-old grudge is gone. Thank you. Yu-hyun. It’s all thanks to you.”
“It’s not . It’s thanks to all of you who trusted and followed .”
Yu-hyun gained a lot from this event after EIJ and Abuziri.
He spent over 30,000 points to engrave his traits, but he earned more than that from clearing this event.
He even got a story and a skill as rewards.
He earned 150,000 points just from this event.
This was not counting the other benefits.
‘And above all, the biggest gain.’
It was the three natural stones he got this ti.
He rembered them and took them out and put them on the central table in his office.
“Wow. Are those natural stones you got this ti?”
“Yes.”
Baek Seo Ryun looked at them with a fascinated gaze.
Even for ordinary people, natural stones were very beautiful and mysterious gems.
Kwon Jia and Kang Hye-rim, who ca to the office, also couldn’t take their eyes off the natural stones.
“So, what are you going to do with them?”
Kang Hye-rim asked curiously what he would use them for.
“Hmm. I haven’t decided yet. I can sell them or use them. There are many ways to use them.”
“You can use them too?”
“You can make a weapon with them, or absorb their energy. But it would be a waste to just use them like that.”
He had too many things to worry about besides natural stones.
He already had a lot of minerals and herbs piled up in the corner of his [Room of the Observer], which were by-products of the Aloran Crystal Cave.
He had to get rid of them as soon as possible.
“The spirits also asked to sell them.”
The spirits went crazy when they saw the natural stones.
Even now, his ga ssage box was full of ssages from unknown spirits begging him to sell them.
‘Hmm. How can I use these well? Water and earth, and plants.’
Yu-hyun felt that the green natural stone was emitting a stronger light than the others.
‘What is this?’
As if responding to him, one of his consumables reacted violently.
‘Could it be?’
Yu-hyun took out ‘that thing’.
