Return To Level Up

Chapter 83

“In the end, it’s just as Ha-jin Kang said.”

Hwang Soo-young looked at Kang Ha-jin with curious eyes and said.

After the dungeon raid, dungeons appeared very rarely in Korea for a while.

Just like old Japan.

So, most of the awakened people were able to have a good rest.

It was the same with Hwang Soo-young.

Recently, she has been visiting so often that she spends more time in Guardian than Dungeon Breaker.

“If I hadn’t listened, it would have been really bad. Even now, sometimes you sleep and dream at that time, and then you wake up suddenly? In my dreams, I end up being stubborn and going to Japan.”

Hwang Soo-young said so and smiled as if embarrassed.

“I can see myself getting on a plane to Japan so clearly that I wake up screaming not to go every time.”

Kang Ha-jin looked at Hwang Soo-young with a slightly startled look because it was a bit surprising.

“I don’t seem to have a very sensitive personality, but…”

“Iknow, right. I didn’t even know I was like this. In fact, it escaped safely, and there is no need to worry about it.”

Kang Ha-jin listened to Hwang Soo-young and guessed the cause. That was guilt.

“The Japanese government is on its knees and begging, and now many people will apply for it, right? The behavior is bad, but the people who live there have to live.”

At Hwang Soo-young’s words, Kang Ha-jin shook her head.

“Probably not.”

“Yes? Aren’t you going again this time?”

“No one will go.”

Hwang Soo-young looked at Kang Ha-jin with her shaking eyes as if she couldn’t believe it.

“What do you mean no one is going?”

“Because a dungeon air strike cannot happen only in Korea and Japan.”

“However······.”

Hwang Soo-young couldn’t keep up with her words. It was because of the text that she arrived at just in time.

Due to Ha-jin Kang’s coercion, she was a text message from the Dungeon Breaker’s intelligence organization, which had just started operating.

“The dungeon raid has begun in the Philippines.”

“Maybe from now on, everyone will have to put out the lights that have fallen on their feet.”

“But now it is only happening in the Philippines. That said, other countries will also turn away from Japan.”

Hwang Soo-young was unable to speak again. Again, it was because of the text.

This time, it was a text message that a dungeon raid had begun in Russia.

After that, text messages continued to arrive.

A dungeon raid began almost at the same time in as many as ten countries.

“How the hell did you predict this?”

Hwang Soo-young looked directly at Kang Ha-jin and asked. There was even a bit of awe in her eyes.

“Have you ever thought about the identity of the dungeon, Hwang Soo-young?”

“What is the dungeon’s identity?”

“The reason dungeons appear, and the system that creates awakeners who can fight in those dungeons. Have you ever thought about these things?”

Hwang Soo-young’s expression hardened slightly.

Of course I thought about it. Especially in the case of irregulars like Hwang Soo-young, it was natural to think more deeply.

“Why didn’t you do it? Actually, at first, I thought that dungeons were… to purify the earth.”

“Are you cleaning?”

Hwang Soo-young nodded her head.

“It is to punish humans, the main culprits of destroying the earth.”

There are probably a lot of people who thought that way.

But to think that way, the monster is too violent and strong.

Monsters have an instinct to attack living creatures.

The monster that came out of the dungeon was the one who continued the fight to kill, not to fight for survival.

“But now I am a little confused. In particular, the dungeon that appeared at the end of Japan… doesn’t seem like it’s going to explode easily, right?”

At Hwang Soo-young’s question, Kang Ha-jin nodded her head.

“It probably won’t explode. It seemed like a different kind of dungeon.”

“Is that so too? It’s as if someone was watching and devising a strategy.”

Hajin Kang nodded her head.

It’s great that she’s not regressed, and that she’s been able to infer so far. She can see that she’s not a mere ignorant man who’s crazy about fighting as Hwang Soo-young sees it.

“It is again this time. If a dungeon raid suddenly breaks out in ten countries like this, no one else will go to Japan.”

“Did you say you would?”

“Does that mean you want to take over Japan?”

Hwang Soo-young looked at Kang Ha-jin with that question, and there was a certain amount of certainty in her eyes.

“I have similar thoughts. Someone from another dimension is aiming for Earth. If you think about it, you can even predict what might happen next.”

Of course, predicting what would happen next by that alone made little sense, but Hwang Soo-young did not fall for it.

In her eyes, Hajin Kang was a human outside of her standard. The powerful power he possesses, the way he thinks, and the way to make a huge thing that pops out of nowhere.

“Once I understood. So what do you think will happen in the future?”

“The dungeon raid will continue.”

“The whole world must suffer because of the dungeon.”

Hwang Soo-young thought so too, so she shook her head with a soft sigh.

“Still, it’s a little strange.”

Hwang Soo-young tilted her head and murmured.

“Looking at the situation so far, isn’t it like sending a dungeon while watching the earth’s situation in advance?”

Suddenly, Hwang Soo-young accepted the fact that there were other-dimensional beings that were trying to invade Earth. Because it was convenient for me to think in many ways.

“And why complicate the invasion in this way? If I had that level of ability and strength, it would be over in no time if I just rushed it.”

“Is that because it can’t be done? Drilling a hole in the dimensionality, isn’t there any restriction?”

“Is that so?”

Hwang Soo-young tilted her head over and over again, wondering if she still did not understand this situation.

Obviously, what she said earlier should be her concern.

It felt as if the events were happening in time, as if foreseeing the situation or watching it.

It was a problem she had never considered before she returned.

However, looking back, the location and timing of the dungeons since the first disaster was ingenious.

The huge new type dungeon that fell this time in Japan will appear several times after that.

Each time, there was confusion in the response, which often caused a big problem.

How could you do that if you didn’t watch the situation and change your strategy and tactics?

In Kang Ha-jin’s head, the bracelet of obedience found in Choi Dae-gil’s safe came to mind.

The probability that the guess at the time it was first discovered was correct increased. I’m guessing there are several bracelets of obedience.

“Now what do we do?”

At Hwang Soo-young’s question, Kang Ha-jin escaped her thoughts. And she answered lightly.

“We have to fight.”

“With whom?”

“Who is who? A monster in the dungeon.”

Hwang Soo-young’s eyes widened.

* * *

The performance of the Japanese prime minister, who knelt down to his knees and begged for his life, ended in a moment of vain show.

The dungeon air raids that started in other countries one after another tied the feet of all the awakened people who were going to Japan.

In the end, Japan decided to forcibly gather its Awakened and Foreign Awoken to establish a thorough defense line and hold out until the situation improves.

At the same time, government officials began to prepare to secretly exit Japan.

Of course, they didn’t want to leave alone. They needed force to protect themselves, so they planned to take all the Awoken who were loyal to them and escape.

There was no one or organization to watch with interest to see what they were doing.

For once, the Awoken, Self-Defense Forces, and police forces were frantic just to maintain security within the defense line and stop the monsters from coming.

And in the case of other countries that might be interested in Japan, the dungeon air raids that exploded one after another were also distracting.

They escaped Japan very leisurely and secretly.

Escape was by boat. A huge container ship was loaded with the vast amount of goods the Japanese government had accumulated over the years.

Their destination was the United States and arrived quite safely.

Naturally, a lot of criticism followed.

The whole world condemned the unscrupulous behavior of the Japanese government.

However, in the meantime, he paid attention to valuable items, including huge amounts of manastones stolen by the Japanese government, huge funds, and important information that had been collected so far.

When the dungeon raid was sweeping the world, dungeons began to appear again in Korea.

No, it’s a dungeon, and it came out consistently. However, it has been so rare that most Awoken have had to take long vacations unintentionally.

However, dungeons appeared here and there as if they were going to start in earnest.

After the disaster and the dungeon air raid, the civic consciousness changed a lot, so if you found a dungeon, you immediately reported it.

When the Awakening Management Office receives a report, it is supposed to contact the nearby Awakened and Guild first.

We made it into a system and made it almost mechanical.

Gone are the days of giving the convenience of large corporations or giant guilds. I couldn’t do that anymore.

If one of the dungeons suddenly exploded, he was not confident that he would take responsibility for it.

Now is the time to worry not about how to allocate the dungeon, but whether you can close this dungeon and whether there are enough Awoken near the dungeon to close it.

Still, Seoul and Gyeonggi Province were relatively safe.

Although the rate of dungeons was slightly high, there were relatively many guilds and Awakeners.

After all, Guardians and Dungeon Breakers also have their guild headquarters in Seoul.

Several dungeons appeared today, and the awakened people in Seoul were very busy.

A dungeon isn’t something that can be closed by running hard for hours, but you have to fight inside for a few days.

So, if multiple dungeons appeared, there was a high probability that the Awakened would be insufficient.

This was the situation now.

Hajin Kang headed to the dungeon that appeared last.

The Guardians were in the first dungeon that appeared. The Guardian is much stronger than other guilds, but it will take a few days to close.

When we arrived at the dungeon, about ten Awoken from the Dungeon Breaker were waiting with the other Awoken.

Among them was Hwang Soo-young.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“I see you like this again.”

I saw him often on vacation, and even though the dungeon started to open, it felt a bit strange to see him so often.

Hwang Soo-young approached Kang Ha-jin and looked at him with strange eyes.

The emotions in her eyes were very complex.

“Why?”

“I got it right again.”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s Japan.”

At that moment, Hajin Kang smiled.

It’s about the Japanese government sneaking out.

She said that when her former Su-Young Hwang told her that she was going to Japan with all her Dungeon Breakers, she was telling her to stop her.

“Now I have decided to respect Ha-jin Kang.”

“That’s a good attitude.”

“I’m not kidding. How the hell do you make such an accurate prediction based on such fragmentary guesses and information? I can’t quite understand it.”

It was a very difficult atmosphere, so Ha-jin Kang quickly turned around.

“The situation in Japan must have become more difficult.”

Hwang Soo-young’s expression darkened.

“They’re not the only ones getting away, they’re also taking a fair amount of supplies and Awoken, so the power gap seems to be very serious.”

It will be. Even before the return, a proper downfall began with the departure of the Japanese government.

Now Japan is no longer able to revive. It was because the Japanese government stepped in and shattered the little hope that remained.

“How can I help?”

Hwang Soo-young looked at Kang Ha-jin with her hopeful eyes and asked. If she was strong Ha-jin, it seemed that she could somehow answer these ridiculous questions.

“I will try to escape from there too. And a lot of people will be abandoned.”

With the government gone, it was only natural.

There are probably quite a few countries that send a special task force to escape the Awoken of their country.

“And the rest will find their own way.”

“It means there is no way.”

“I can help you escape. And we can send them to America.”

At Ha-jin’s words, Hwang Soo-young’s eyes twinkled.

“Is that possible?”

“But I can’t help everyone. It’s just like scooping out a bucket of water from the river.”

“Where is that? It is important to save at least one person.”

“Let’s close this dungeon and talk again.”

Hajin Kang said so and entered the dungeon.
