<h4>Chapter 447: The Price For Reckless Attack (2)</h4>


    “Hahaha! As long as I can’t escape Earth, there’s nowhere I can run from you, right? And I expected you would seek me since I killed more than 1000 Myongjin people.”


    “So you made such amotion when you knew you would be killed by me?”


    “Well, you are so strong that I can’t do anything about you, so I decided to strike those around you.”


    “Why did you have to do that?”


    I was really curious about it.


    Even though he was weaker than me, he was still one of the strongest yers on Earth.


    So much so that he was regarded as the second strongest after me.


    Moreover, I restrained myself from being conceited.


    In other words, I did not oppress, persecute, or exploit anyone who was weaker than me. I had no intention of making this hellish world a more hellish one by taking away and exploiting others.


    I also had no intention of bing the ruler of the earth like others described me.


    It’s good to be called a ruler, but a ruler has lots of responsibility.


    That’s why I saved the Mitsuya Guild of Japan that previously attacked Myongjin within “Revival Legend” without a warning over some profits, and I spared President Kijung Kim who was targeting me and my families’ lives. Obviously, I could have killed them quite easily, but if that happened, all those under their control would have plunged into chaos.


    To be honest, I’ve grown so huge that I don’t even care about all of that.


    Of course, when they asked for my help directly, I squeezed a lot ofpensation from them because I wasn’t a phnthropist, and those who asked for my help were pretty affluent and generous. But I didn’t ask for more than what I needed.


    Anyway, I always moved with the thought that I didn’t have to make enemies on purpose, and that’s why I asked Umberto the question, ‘Why?’


    “Because you have taken away my ce, Juyoung Hong.”


    “Your ce?”


    “Yes! My ce! It’s me, not you, who should have been the center of the spotlight from all the people! It should have been me, not you, because I’m called the hope of the Earth. I, not you, should have been called the ruler of the earth!”


    Before this guy startedining like that, his eyes were like a dead fish, buta after he spat out hisst sentence vehemently,, his eyes glowed brightly.


    But his eyes didn’t shine for long, and becameckluster in no time like before.


    Watching him, I felt some sort of kinship because of what he just said to me.


    For I also wanted to be the hero of the world.


    Of course, I know that I could not, but I had something that reflected my wishes like that. In other words, my ID Lumen. It wasposed of a word meaning ‘light, brilliance and hope.’


    “Oh, that’s why you were so upset!”


    “Correct. That’s my main reason!”


    He keptughing at my words as if he was so happy.


    But I immediately used my skill.


    “Ice Breath.”


    Bang!


    Did I still feel a sense of kinship with him? Did I feel miserable for him?


    Not at all. And I didn’t have to feel that way.


    He and I were total strangers anyway.


    And I now finally found out why he was so obsessed with me.


    So what I had to do right now was to kill him. So I used Ice Breath right away, and 5yers of it at that.


    Puck! Puck! Puck!


    That attack alone dealt a devastating blow to him.


    As if to prove he was also a strong guy, he resisted the 5yers of Ice Breath a bit.


    But he was swept away by Ice Breath right away, with his body torn apart and smashed to pieces without any traces.


    Wheeeeeeng-


    All that was left were traces of the giant Ice Breath.


    Tramp- Tramp-


    Without even looking back at his smashed body, I turned right away.


    It was not just one or two that I had killed until now, and in the end, Lucia Guild leader Umberto was just one of them.


    So I just walked out of the hut that had beenpletely destroyed by the impact of Ice Breath, then slowly moved to the ce where the Antgos guild members and their leader Oliveira were gathered.


    Then Olivera said, “I don’t know if I have to congratte you for taking revenge on him, but…”


    Puck!


    “Kheeeeeeeek!”


    I swung the +15 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword at Oliveira who was trying to curry favor with me.


    “Why did you…?”


    I spoke to him, who raised his head and stared at me in shock.


    “Honestly, I don’t care even if you lied to me. But you clearlymitted a crime by not telling me that Lucia Guild leader Umberto would attack Myongjin when you knew it in advance!”


    After that, I pulled out the sword and struck him with it repeatedly.


    Puck! Puck! Puck!


    He was stabbed right in the chest.


    “Umberto, that bastard…”


    Guild leader Oliveira fell down, ming Umberto.


    As for the Antgos Guild members left behind.


    Normally they would have charged at me right away when their leader was killed before their eyes.


    “…”


    “…”


    “…”


    Rather than charging at me, none of them made a surprised expression or swore at me.


    And I expected it too.


    So, I opened my mouth to them calmly, “Which one of you is Brandon?”


    Then one of them stepped forward and opened his mouth, “I am Brandon.”


    “Good. Alright, I will forget my bad ties with the Antgos Information Guild from now on.”


    “Thank you.”


    The dead guild leader Oliveira was suspicious of Umberto, but in fact, it was his deputy Brandon who negotiated the whole deal with Myongjin after telling them the whole story.


    Then Brandon said to me, “The Antgos Information Guild wants to belong to Myongjin, or more precisely Juyoung Hong. Our association will never hurt you or Myongjin.”


    Brandon said that he would like to be my subordinate, along with the other members of his guild. His offer was definitely tempting a lot to me because it was the world’s No. 1 information guild.


    But I resisted by saying, “You want to work for me? Hmm, you want to make use of my power freely.”


    As a matter of fact, I’m rather embarrassed to say this, but there were a huge number of individuals, guilds, or groups who wanted to join Myongjin or work for me as my subordinates. They were especially eager to join us after those who returned to Earth after the Advance Party event revealed the existence of Kuhana’s Royal, Major, Regr, and Rookie Districts, and that the average power of all the yers on Earth paled even whenpared to those in the Rookie Districts


    Nheless, Brandon approached me with a cunning offer like that.


    So I said, pointing out the crux of the issue, “Prove that you are necessary for Myongjin. Then I will ept you.”


    I clearly made him recognize that I was the master, and he was the subordinate.


    To be honest, I wanted to have him as my subordinate.


    Anyway, I was done here, so I immediately started moving using Blink with zero cooldown using Fly.
