The Main Characters That Only I Know Chapter 213:

Chapter 213

The lightning in my sword slashed through the air sharply.

The remnants of the current scattered in all directions, exploding like small fireworks and lting away in the air. Kang Hye-rim bit her lip, displeased with the sight.

I need to focus more.

It had been about a week since she received training from Seo Sumin.

Seo Sumin, who had an exceptional eye for martial arts, clearly suggested a way for Kang Hye-rim to beco stronger quickly.

-Hye-rim unnies power is strong. Her talent for swordsmanship is undeniable.

For Seo Sumin, teaching Kang Hye-rim was perhaps the easiest thing to do. She could teach her the sword skills that she had not yet realized through sparring, and the Heavenly Thunder Sword that she possessed was not comparable to the Seven Demon Black Heaven Divine Skill right now, but it was enough to have a power that matched it if it grew well.

-What unnie needs right now is the adjustnt of power. The lightning is strong. But unnie is not controlling that power perfectly, but rather, just letting it go as the power wants.

Kang Hye-rim could not refute that.

Seo Sumins words accurately pointed out the anxiety that she had been harboring deep in her heart unconsciously.

When the faint thing that she could not grasp took shape and appeared before her eyes, she felt helpless.

The Heavenly Thunder Sword was powerful. But she could not confidently say that she was perfectly using this technique.

Kang Hye-rim had not used the Heavenly Thunder Sword so far because of her perfect control over that power.

Rather, she compromised with the fierce and predatory power of the Heavenly Thunder Sword, and just made a path for it to jump.

Crunch.

Kang Hye-rim clenched her teeth and entered the control of energy.

This would not do. She could not use her power half-heartedly like this. She would only hold Yuhyeon back.

And also lose her mory at so point, and hurt her comrades.

Because she was not there at that ti

Stupidly affected by a ntal attack and wasted ti

So Yuhyeon almost died.

Zap!

The lightning that swung beca stronger.

The lightning that tried to run wild outside the sword gradually cald down and flowed along the blade.

Kang Hye-rim sweated profusely, focusing on suppressing the energy.

She thought she had succeeded in controlling the power, but

Crackle!

Ugh!

Kang Hye-rim lost her grip on the sword due to the lightning that ran wild again.

She thought she would succeed this ti, but it was another failure.

It had been a week since she was stuck in the sa place. Kang Hye-rims impatience reached its peak.

This wont do. I cant be a burden forever.

She felt it when she looked at Kwon Jia and Seo Sumin. Would they really need her like this?

Did she really deserve to stand by Yuhyeons side? Wasnt she unnecessary now?

She might be abandoned again. Like her mother left her.

That day, Kang Hye-rim told Kwon Jia that she did not rember, but that was a lie.

She rembered. What her nightmare was, what she did.

She could not co to her senses from self-hatred that ate away at her heart like a worm eating leaves.

Others were already moving forward, but she felt like she was standing still in one place.

No. It was not even standing still.

She was running away from sothing. Without even knowing what was chasing her, she was just a coward who ran away desperately with fear.

Kang Hye-rim asked herself.

What am I running from and where am I escaping to?

What is at the end of this escape?

Thud.

At the mont when all her distractions reached their peak, paradoxically, what Kang Hye-rim thought of was not the man who reached out his hand to her, but Kwon Jias figure.

The image of her back, silently sweating, but never stopping her training.

Why did that stubborn image, which she had glimpsed a few tis as she passed by, suddenly project vividly in front of her eyes?

Her soul showed her the perfect wall that she wanted to overco the most at this mont.

The wall was clear and sharp.

Kang Hye-rim gripped her sword.

There was only one thing she could learn from Kwon Jia.

To never stop, to have a purpose and a will, and to work hard.

Ssssh. Hoo.

Kang Hye-rim took a breath, cald her mind.

Lets not think about anything else for now.

The only thing she thought of was a firm image.

It was a snare to suppress the beast of rage that was raging inside her body.

Zzzzzz.

Lightning flowed through the sword. It did not burst out, but rather wrapped around the sword like a thin mbrane.

Imdiately after, the shape collapsed again due to the raging energy inside her, but Kang Hye-rim felt her head clear for the first ti.

It was a miracle of an instant, not even a second long.

But she found a clue for the first ti.

Finally, Kang Hye-rim realized the path she had to take.

I have to work harder, so that I wont be a burden to anyone, so that I can stand proudly by his side.

Ding!

What ca to her then was an unexpected notification.

***

There was no one related to the Collector who did not see the ssage.

It ca to everyone who had the Genesis system, regardless of age or gender.

[The dinsion Earth has entered the next phase.]

[The concept of sponsorship becos more expansive.]

[The stories that make up the world beco more clear.]

[The erosion of the worldviews occurs.]

[The stories that can be used are expanded.]

[Ti left until the phase: 7 days]

Yu-hyuns face lost its expression as he checked the ssage window.

Wha, what? What is this?

Next phase? What does that an all of a sudden?

Did sothing happen?

The students were confused by the unfamiliar situation.

It was the sa for everyone else.

Even Im Gunwoo, who would not be surprised by anything, could not hide his bewildernt as this was his first ti experiencing this.

Im Gunwoo approached Yu-hyun and asked him quietly.

Hyung. Whats going on here? Do you know anything?

Im new to this too.

Yu-hyun wondered why this had happened.

Could it be because of the Paradise Land?

That was probably the most likely reason.

The havoc that the Paradise Land had caused was enough to shake the mixed world.

The evaluation of Earth had changed because of that influence.

The Paradise Land did sothing similar in my previous life. But they didnt get caught because they handled it cleanly. But this ti its different. I intervened and the Paradise Land failed to kill Sumin, and their secret cris were exposed.

The Paradise Land was the one who committed the fundantal evil, but Yu-hyun was the one who made the situation grow bigger by interfering.

Yu-hyun looked around.

The students, as well as the instructors who were collectors, were bewildered by the unexpected announcent of change.

Celine contacted Yu-hyun, who had been watching the situation.

-Senior. Can you hear ? Theres a problem.

Yeah, Celine. Im very confused right now too. Whats going on? Do you know anything?

-A docunt ca from the central office a while ago.

From the central office?

-Yes. Ill send it to you now.

Oh, thank you. I got it.

Yu-hyun checked the docunt that ca through the Genesis Network and read it quickly.

The docunt was not long. But that didnt an that its aning and value were low because there was little written.

Yu-hyun finished reading the [Next Phase Guide for Dinsional Earth] from the central office, closed the window, and imdiately contacted Kwon Jia.

Jia.

-Yeah. Im very confused too.

Lets talk about it later. Everyone else too.

-Okay.

Yu-hyun ended the call and had a hard ti finding a clue on how to react to this sudden change.

He was worried about the new future that had never existed before, but at the sa ti, he felt excited.

The world began to change in a different direction.

Would it be better than before?

Or would it go down a much more serious path?

He would only know when that mont ca.

***

[There is a lot of controversy over the ssage window that appeared to collectors around the world recently.]

The TV kept talking about the ssage that ca to the collectors this ti.

It was the sa no matter which channel he switched to.

All channels related to news only dealt with this situation.

Prominent scholars and professors ca out and debated for hours, and rumors that could not be verified circulated on internet community sites and such.

It was as if an indistinct devil was manipulating this situation from behind.

Its noisy in many ways.

Yu-hyun turned off the TV.

He didnt think he would get any new information by continuing to watch it.

He already knew roughly how the situation would unfold through the docunt from the central office, so it might be better to focus on sothing else instead.

Are you all here?

He asked for confirmation, but he already knew.

No one knew better than Baekhwa Managent how serious this situation was.

Mr. Yu-hyun. What is going on all of a sudden?

Baek Seoryeon, who had been feeling a bit relaxed as her workload had decreased recently, expressed her deep concern about the unexpected situation that had arisen like a goblin.

Yu-hyun quickly explained the situation briefly, knowing that everyone was looking at him.

As you all know, sothing amazing happened yesterday. In seven days. No, in six days, the Earth will undergo a change.

What kind of change are you talking about?

The Earth will be more influenced by the hybrid system.

How exactly?

Right now, the Earth is hardly affected by the hybrid system. Would you believe if I said that even the phenonon that was called the Day of Thought Integration, which was a huge shock for the Earth, was nothing but a taste of the hybrid system?

Yu-hyun scanned the audience.

Everyone was srized by Yu-hyuns words and couldnt take their eyes off his mouth.

That limit will be loosened this ti. More than now.

How much more?

Kwon Jia asked.

The situation was unexpected even for her, who was a returnee, so she was quite curious.

I dont know the details either. But if the Earth has been affected by 10% of the total so far, I think it might jump to 40% with this one.

Yu-hyun finished his rough calculation.

He knew the future when the Earth was completely integrated into the hybrid system.

That was the end of the world called Phase Apocalypse.

It wasnt hard to analyze based on that.

Hmm.

The wrinkle on Kwon Jias forehead deepened.

She also had a rough idea of what level 40% was.

Yu-hyun continued his explanation.

The biggest change would be, of course, the level of support that the spirits can give. Until now, it was only limited to points, but this ti, the restriction will be reduced considerably. If youre lucky, the spirits might even give you stories directly.

Then what is erosion exactly?

Kang Hye-rim, who had been silent until then, opened her mouth.

The phenonon of erosion was also a topic that everyone here was curious about.

Erosion is literally erosion. The erosion of thought worlds. The stories of those worlds start to eat away at reality.

Are you saying that so thought worlds go berserk?

Its not well known, but there have been similar things to erosion before. So thought worlds, if no one touches them, have their fantasy creatures spill out to the outside. You all know that, right?

Everyone nodded their heads.

The era of thought integration was the greatest upheaval in human history.

Thats when collectors appeared and thought worlds were created, and fantasy creatures popped out from inside them.

So thought worlds are harmless even if you leave them alone. The Labyrinth of Minotaurus, where the minotaur dwelled, was like that. On the other hand, there are places where if you dont periodically eliminate fantasy creatures, they multiply and co out of the thought world. Well, now theyve beco collectors point farming grounds.

For collectors, thought worlds where fantasy creatures multiplied endlessly were endless sources of points.

And that had been fixed for years and led to the association setting up boundaries, and it had reached the level of an unwritten rule that should not be touched.

But thats over now. When erosion occurs, the thought world will eat away at reality and gradually materialize.

If you dont clear the swamp thought world, it will be eroded by swamp from the entrance.

If you dont clear the oceanic thought world, that area will beco a sea of water.

What this ant was that humanity no longer had ti to spare.

The world would change like that in six days.

You have to prepare yourselves. The changing world wont wait for us.

The world still didnt give them any rest.
