Blackie, weren’t you just a mixed breed dog?

Kkihihit. Kking!

[Hehehe. Explain my greatness more! More! More!]

Seeing Blackie yelling at the message, Sejun felt a deep sense of betrayal.

I thought you were a dumb dog and a weak sunfish, but you turned out to be a noble wolf with numerous amazing powers…

This is dangerous!

His position, barely escaping being the weakest on the 99th floor of the Black Tower, was now under threat.

I’m second from the bottom!

Having Blackie below him had been Sejun’s great joy, but now even Blackie was stepping on him to rise higher.

As Sejun was lamenting this,

[Currently, you have 5 trillion Tower Coins.]

[You are significantly short of money.]

Of course, it’s not enough.

Should I leave Blackie behind?

I wanted to go together, but since I don’t have the money, there’s no choice.

Blackie, I’m sorry. But I have to go.

As Sejun was thinking of leaving Blackie on the first floor of the Tower,

[Converting the treasures in Void Storage into cash.]

“What?!”

What are you selling? Even if you sell them…

[You have acquired 27 quadrillion 300 million Tower Coins.]

Oh!

It seemed that the treasures of Blackster were worth more than he thought.

[Taking out 300 million Tower Coins in cash from [Theo Park’s Bag of the Legendary Merchant Wandering the Nine Towers].]

[Converting the treasures in [Theo Park’s Bag of the Legendary Merchant Wandering the Nine Towers] into cash.]

[You have acquired 3 quadrillion.]

What was in Theo’s bag?

As Sejun was curious,

[Taking out 3000 Tower Coins in cash from Cuengi Park’s pocket money pouch.]

Hey! You can’t touch Cuengi’s pocket money!

Our Cuengi worked so hard to fill his stamp card with stamps, I’ll have to sneak the money back later.

When all the money from the group was gathered,

[Currently, you have 30 quadrillion 5 trillion 300 million 3000 Tower Coins.]

An unimaginable amount of money had been amassed.

However,

[Using 30 quadrillion of your money to stay on Earth for 3 hours.]

The time he could stay with that money was just 3 hours.

“What?! Not 3 days, but 3 hours?!”

There are so many things to do!

I have to go to America, go to the amusement park with the kids, eat mom’s home cooked meals while catching up on dramas…

[Moving to Earth.]

Before he could protest, Sejun’s vision turned black as he moved to Earth.

***

9 Black Towers were creating safe zones in Korea.

However, with Michael destroying Korea’s Black Towers, only 3 remained, located in Gangnam and Hannam-dong.

“Kekeke. If I destroy just one more, the safe zone will disappear.”

As Michael approached the Black Tower in Gangnam with a sinister smile,

“Ugh!”

Stumble.

Michael tripped over a tree root.

“Ah. So annoying. What kind of trees are they growing near the towers in Seoul to have so many roots!”

Michael grumbled as he approached the Black Tower again.

[What should I do? Should I intervene?]

Watching this, Flamie was stamping its roots anxiously.

If she intervened, the surrounding area, at least Gangnam, would disappear. So she was watching and trying to obstruct Michael with roots.

But as Michael tried to destroy the last remaining safe zone, Flamie had to make a decision.

If the safe zone disappeared, Sejun couldn’t come to Earth.

Sejun nim, please come quickly!

While Flamie was nervously preparing to unleash her roots, hoping she wouldn’t have to intervene,

“Earth! I’m back!”

Sejun appeared in front of Michael, shouting triumphantly.

‘Who the hell is this guy?’

Michael, seeing Sejun suddenly appear in front of him, reached out as if to swat away an annoying fly.

He intended to eliminate Sejun as the quickest way to complete his task.

Until now, he had avoided conspicuous actions to make things easier.

However,

‘I don’t need to do that anymore.’

Now, he just needed to remove the obstacle in front of him and destroy one more Black Tower to eliminate the safe zones on Earth.

‘Then it’s over. Don’t be too sad. Everyone else will follow soon.’

As Michael reached out to Sejun,

[You have arrived at the 0th floor of the Black Tower.]

[In the safe zone, the aura emanating from your body will not harm the surroundings.]

[Starting Destruction Detection.]

.

.

.

[Destruction Detection is complete.]

[Multiple sources of power of destruction detected within a 500km radius.]

[A large amount of power of destruction detected 11,000km east in Texas, USA.]

[A quest has been generated.]

[Quest: Quickly eliminate all detected sources of power of destruction. If the current state continues, Earth will be destroyed in 38 days.]

Reward: Delay of Earth’s destruction

Sejun was diligently reading the messages.

Uh… I need to eliminate the destruction. But I can only stay on Earth for 3 hours…

If I finish quickly, maybe I can at least have a meal at home?

Lost in thought, Sejun noticed Michael’s hand approaching him only when it was just 10cm away.

He could feel immense power from the approaching fist.

I should have taken off the bracelet as soon as I arrived…

As Sejun regretted,

“Meow!”

Thwack.

Theo blocked Michael’s surprise attack.

“Puhuhut. I am Theo Park, the loyal subordinate of Chairman Park with an impenetrable defense, meow! As long as I, Vice Chairman Theo, am here, you can’t lay a finger on Chairman Park’s rotten face, meow!”

Theo wore a triumphant expression.

Kkihihit. Kking? Kking!

[Heheh. Were you trying to hit him?! The noble wolf, the great Blackie will teach you a lesson!]

Plop.

Blackie also leaped bravely towards Michael.

And then,

Thud.

After lightly headbutting Michael’s forehead,

Kkiiing…

Blackie fainted and fell to the ground.

[The seal has been lifted.]

[You can now use your abilities at 100%.]

“Hehehe. Sunfish.”

Isn’t our Blackie still weak?

In the meantime, Sejun quickly caught the falling Blackie after removing the Grapevine Bracelet of Sealing.

Thwack! Thwack!

“Why did you mess with our Chairman Park, meow?! I’ll teach you a lesson, meow!”

Theo started to punish Michael.

“Ugh! Why can’t I use Fenrir’s power…?”

Unable to use the power of destruction, Michael wore an aggrieved expression as Theo beat him up.

“Your expression is suspicious, meow!”

Naturally, Theo, feeling displeased, intensified his punishment.

And then,

Kkihihit. Kking? Kking…

[Hehe. Did you see? The power of the great Blackie…]

Blackie had done the significant task of summoning the thought contained in the core fragment to his mental world and annihilating it.

But

“Yes, our Blackie, be great at least in your dreams.”

No one acknowledged it.

After a while,

“Chairman Park, I found something good, meow!”

Theo, who had picked up Fenrir’s core fragment that had come out of Michael’s body, brought it to Sejun.

[Fenrir’s Core Fragment (10%)]

“Huh? A 10% fragment?!”

Wow. I didn’t know such a thing existed on Earth; this could have been disastrous.

“Vice Chairman Theo, you did a great job! Well done!”

Sejun praised Theo while patting his head.

“Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo, am always excellent and do well, meow!”

Theo, swelling with pride, was smug. Though it was annoying, Sejun decided to let it slide today.

If the 10% Fenrir’s core fragment from the fallen man in front of them had been misused, Earth would have been destroyed immediately.

“Aileen, purify this.”

Sejun called for Aileen to purify the core fragment, but…

……..

There was no answer. Perhaps because Earth was temporarily incorporated to the Great Black Tower, it seemed he couldn’t communicate with Aileen in the administrator’s zone.

Thus, Sejun kept the Fenrir’s core fragment.

Clang.

“Guys, come out.”

He opened the Void Storage and called Cuengi and the Black Rabbit.

Kuehehehe. Kueng?!

[Hehehe. Can Cuengi see Cuengi’s Grandma now?!]

“Of course. Let’s go eat Grandma’s kimchi stew.”

Kueng!

[Sounds good!]

Ppyak?

[Is this Earth?]

“Yeah. Isn’t it amazing?”

Ppyak!

[Yes!]

“But it really got cleaned up.”

As he noticed the clean floor of the Void Storage, which had been thickly covered with jewels to convert to cash for staying costs, Sejun showed a regretful expression.

At that moment,

“Sejun nim, you’re here!”

Han Tae-jun and Kim Dong-sik came running with two blonde men. They were CIA agents Robin and Peter, dispatched from the United States.

Han Tae-jun had called them to coordinate the schedule for eliminating the Flesh Eaters in Texas, USA.

“Kim Dong-sik, this man attacked our Chairman Park, meow!”

Theo said, dragging the unconscious Michael by his arm to Dong-sik.

“What?! This is Michael?!”

“Huh?! This person was Michael?!”

“Yes! You’re truly amazing. You already captured Michael!”

“Puhuhut. Kim Dong-sik, what did I say, meow?! Didn’t I say it would be over the moment Chairman Park stepped in, meow? Didn’t I, meow?! Chairman Park is great, meow!”

While Theo excitedly praised Sejun,

“Sejun nim, hello. I’m CIA agent Robin.”

“Hello. I’m CIA agent Peter.”

Peter and Robin approached Sejun and greeted him in English.

“Yes. Nice to meet you.”

Oh! It works!

Although he couldn’t speak English, Sejun could understand it thanks to his talent: Friend of Nature.

“So, the U.S. military is planning to launch a nuke in Texas to deal with the Flesh Eaters?”

Sejun, who understood the situation in America directly from them without an interpreter.

“Yes. So please help us! There are still 200,000 people who haven’t escaped from Texas. Just like the last time with Pae…”

As Peter tried to mention what Paespaes had done in the past,

(Pip-pip! This is my first time coming to Earth like this!)

I’ll be found out at this rate!

Afraid that his plagiarism of his brothers’ skills would be discovered, Paespaes hurriedly cut off Peter.

And then,

(Pip-pip! Ah. I’m sorry. Did I interrupt your conversation? But listening to it, Cuengi hyung’s Cuengi’s Step Punch could solve this problem!)

He subtly suggested a solution while diverting the conversation.

Kueng! Kueng!

[That’s right! Cuengi will solve it with Cuengi’s Step Punch!]

As Cuengi stepped forward, having heard Paespaes’s words,

(Pip-pip. Now no one will know.)

Paespaes felt relieved.

If Cuengi dealt with the Flesh Eaters in Texas with his Cuengi’s Step Punch, even the traces of Paespaes’s past actions would be cleanly erased.

As Cuengi stepped forward,

???

Peter and Robin were bewildered. What is that bear?

At that moment,

“Cuengi, not that way, this way.”

Sejun, who could sense the location of the detected destruction, adjusted the direction of Cuengi’s front paw.

And then,

Kueng!

Swish.

Cuengi swung his front paw powerfully.

Of course, nothing happened in front of them.

Instead, like a butterfly effect, disaster struck in Texas, USA.

***

U.S. Pentagon Operations Room.

“Secretary, we have 30 minutes left.”

Do we really have to nuke our own soil?

“What about the remaining people in Texas?”

“We still haven’t been able to rescue 200,000 people.”

“Hmm…”

At the report from his subordinate, the Secretary of Defense sighed deeply.

He knew that his decision would cost 200,000 lives, but they couldn’t wait any longer.

It had to be done.

As the Secretary of Defense was about to make his final decision,

Buzz.

A call came in from his friend, the CIA Director.

Normally, he wouldn’t take calls during an operation, but he answered, thinking it might be important.

“Hello.”

“Park Sejun has just appeared in Korea!”

“What?!”

“Park Sejun came out of the Black Tower!”

“Is that true?!”

“Yes. Our agents are on their way to persuade him. Provide them with the exact locations of the survivors.”

“Understood!”

As the Secretary of Defense was about to call his subordinate,

“Secretary! Look at this video!”

104.28.193.250

The satellite footage of the skies over Texas showed a massive bear paw shape cutting through the clouds.

Moments later,

The giant bear paw precisely struck the Flesh Eaters, avoiding the areas where people were gathered.

Then, another bear paw descended, leaving two enormous bear paw prints in Texas, completely annihilating the Flesh Eaters.
