Meanwhile...

I finished the whisper with Drain and told Aries that the barrier would be broken from the inside. Fortunately, Park Maksun, who came with me, was deeply versed in barrier magic. She said that for this type of huge magic, the most important thing was the magic circles in all four directions pouring out light. In other words, we just need to destroy one of them in order to get rid of the great mind magic called the Palace of Dreams that was currently surrounding the Orca Kingdom.

[So there is one person moving inside to destroy the magic circle? Is that it?]

“You can say that.” I slowly nodded.

Aries didn’t seem to believe it. She once again raised a question, [Can we trust this person?]

I couldn’t answer.

“That...”

[You don’t have confidence.]

Aries accurately stabbed me. To be honest, it was uncertain if Drain could do well. Drain was someone with a non-combat class, not a combat one.

[Hmm, I wish Kirkinos was here at this time. If we had his scissors then we could easily get in. I am actually thinking of him. I can’t believe it.]

Kirkinos? For a moment, I felt dizzy and my head was blank like I was hit by something. Why did this thought only come to mind now? I hurriedly pulled out one of the Star Fruits I had acquired in the North Pole from my inventory. It was a first-grade fruit.

[Star Fruit? Where did you get that? What are you going to do with that?]

“You will know once you see it.” I smiled at Aries.

At the southwest of the Orca Kingdom...

Drain managed to reach the place where the magic circle was emitting light. He had come here while imitating zombies. He felt that there were even days like this in his life. In any case, it was a memory he didn’t want to remember again.

“Sigh. This is the magic circle that Brother mentioned?”

Drain was currently in front of a small chapel for Lupeon, the god of mercy and the stars. Drain knew that nobles of the Orca Kingdom gathered here once a week to socialize and that Duke Doug was the organizer of the meeting.

“I never thought I would come here again...”

It was a place he had been to not long ago in order to show off the clothes he designed. In any case, a great light was now rising from here.

“Sigh...”

Drain took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and opened the door of the chapel. Creak. Fortunately, no one was inside. Drain slowly approached the magic circle that was emitting a tremendous amount of energy.

‘Can I just touch it?’

Drain thought he needed to check. He picked up a stone and threw it toward the magic circle! The stone that was thrown quickly turned into powder and disappeared.

“...Not even my bones would remain.”

A feeling of collapse came over him. He showed outstanding acting skills and finally managed to reach this place. However, the fact that he couldn’t break this magic circle due to lacking strength made him feel helpless. It happened at this time...

-Jackson:Eat what I’m sending you now.

-Drain:Huh?

Suddenly, the space next to him twisted and something bright fell from it. Drain picked it up and checked what it was.

“T-This?”

-Jackson:The Star Fruit must’ve just arrived.Eat it and get the constellation called Executioner of Love.

Drain was wide-eyed as he thought about his brother’s words. Now he was being told to become a Star Fruit ability user. Then another whisper arrived.

-Jackson:It is hard to break the magic circle with your own power.Do as I say.

Drain finally understood the situation. He ate the Star Fruit without hesitation. At the same time, stars rose above his head. Drain found the constellation Executioner of Love that his brother spoke of among numerous messages.

[The first-grade star, ‘Executioner of Love,’ is looking at you.]

“Oh, h-hi? I need your strength.”

At the capital of the Orca Kingdom...

Satan was sitting with his legs crossed on the throne while drinking wine. It was after launching Palace of Dreams, the large-scale mind magic. He enjoyed a rare break while peeking into the dreams of the angry humans outside.

[It isn’t tasty.]

Clang.

He threw a bottle of wine to the ground and there was a shattering sound. Satan immediately grabbed another bottle of wine and raised it to his mouth.

Gulp gulp.

Satan’s neck moved bizarrely.

[Hmm. This one is a bit okay.]

Satan had recently found the royal storehouse for wines. He took them out one by one and was enjoying the taste. In front of him were many screens that clearly reflected the inner dreams of humans thanks to his power ‘Demon’s Interest.’ There were many interesting images of humans’ anger and this made Satan very satisfied. Days passed one by one and the free days continued.

[......!]

Satan was sleeping with his chin supported on his palm when his eyes abruptly opened.

[What is this...?!]

Satan raised himself up and quickly looked in the direction of what he felt. At this moment, one of the four pillars of light lost their clarity. It could be seen that the barrier was broken.

At the same time, at the magic temple in Dark Moon...

Mido was following the dokkaebi king Shokkobi to the temple of magic and the moon. Shokkobi and Mido’s party had reconciled dramatically due to Chunza. It was because Shokkobi instantly knew Chunza’s identity. However, the Lechuza that Shokkobi knew about was different from Chunza. Therefore, he said he had something to check and told them to follow him. Now Mido’s group were entering the temple of the moon and magic at the top of the mountain range where the dokkaebi village was located.

“Crescent! Crescent, are you here?!” Shokkobi’s voice echoed through the temple.

Shortly thereafter, there was the sound of footsteps. Everyone’s gaze turned in that directly and Shokkobi waved his bat with a unique smile as he looked at the person coming from the darkness.

[Crescent, look here.]

The gaze of the man called Crescent turned to Mido’s group in front of him. Mido was startled when she made eye contact.

‘Crescent pupils?’

They were the crescent moon pupils that she clearly saw on the statues of the Lechuza just now. The constellation Lepus had definitely said so. The only being with crescent moon pupils was the Lechuza, the sacred creature of the moon. So why did the man in front of her have them?

“Lechuza...”

It seemed Mido was right. The man known as Crescent smiled slightly. Crescent had very fine, long hair that went down to his waist. He had an appearance so stunning that anyone would call him beautiful. However, Crescent’s gaze was already elsewhere.

“......”

The crescent eyes were on the owl just behind Mido. His brow was deeply furrowed.

“Don’t tell me—no. How can this be...? You were alive?”

Crescent’s eyes trembled with disbelief. The two pairs of crescent moon eyes finally faced each other.

“Guruk?”

Chunza cocked her head.

At the East Continent, the cave containing Beelzebub and Nekron...

Nekron came to the East Continent following Lucifer’s command and met Demon King Beelzebub. The first thing he did was build up the power of the undead. Beelzebub was a demon king with the nickname ‘Gluttonous Disease.’ He was literally a demon king with the powers of over-eating and diseases. Beelzebub enjoyed pulling out the hearts of living people and placing them on a scale before eating the heavier side. This would make Beelzebub stronger. Additionally, the flies carrying his various diseases engulfed the East Continent at a very high speed.

The speed was very fast and Beelzebub and Nekron were pleased.

“...At this speed, we will soon be able to devour 90% of the East Continent.”

Not long ago, Nekron accidentally succeeded in creating a new undead using the disease spread by Beelzebub. Beelzebub’s disease stuck to the newly created undead and the bitten NPC or user were infected on the spot, turning into zombies. The higher the target’s stats, the more powerful the undead would be. The undead created by infecting the NPC known as the Tai Chi daoist immortal retained the power of his life and showed great strength. He made a very great contribution in dealing with the remnants of the Murim who struck recently.

[...What is so funny?]

At this time, someone approached behind Nekron with faint footsteps. The one holding a bloody and bizarre scale in his hand was Demon King Beelzebub. Perhaps there was also a heart that had been eaten alive because the scale was tilted to one side. Sure enough, the tilted side contained a small, beating heart.

“...I feel it every time, but it is really stinky.”

Nekron frowned and Beelzebub smiled in the darkness.

[Would you like to have a taste?]

“I will refuse.”

[Huhuhu.]

Beelzebub gave a low laugh, picked up the heart on the tilted scale, and ate it. Nekron stopped and frowned at the terrible sound. Nekron hadn’t seen Beelzebub’s face properly since this demon king always wore a robe covering his face. He just recognized Beelzebub due to the scale that was carried.

‘This sinister guy.’

If it wasn’t for their skills matching, Nekron would probably stay away from a fat, grim demon king like Beelzebub. Now at Lucifer’s orders, Beelzebub was eating hearts and storing his strength. It was all to kill the existence of the Spring Balance, the ‘blue sky dragon’ here. Lucifer only left these words before disappearing somewhere. His whereabouts were a mystery.

‘The blue sky dragon hasn’t appeared yet. It is definitely in Murim...’

Nekron was lost in his thoughts for a while before shaking his head. He looked at the piece of Pandora fragment hanging around his neck.

‘It won’t be too long until I become a god.’

Lucifer said that once all the Pandora pieces were collected, he would become a god in the near future. Nekron was filled with an exalted feeling and once again confirmed his original intentions. Then he started to examine Murim’s situation using Lich’s Eyes. First, he saw the high walls that the Murim people had built up to stop his invasion.

[I can help you.]

“I will refuse. It is no fun.”

It would be easier to end Murim if Beelzebub came forward, but Nekron didn’t want to play such a boring game. Beelzebub was following him without saying anything because Nekron offered him living human beings.

‘Some time ago, Zhen Sulong and Michael arrived here... however, they haven’t acted yet. Are they planning something?’

At this time, there was a loud noise.

"......!"

For the first time, the firmly closed gates of Murim opened. Countless people were pouring out from it.
