Alan was greatly taken aback by the goddess’ words.
People say that the older you get, the less surprises you get, especially since Alan has lived for eons.
But this one was too severe.
Ancient demons that were thought to be extinct have moved to another universe and are openly alive.
“You tricked me!”
[I’ve never cheated on you. It’s just that you and I interpret the meaning of extinction differently. It is true that the ancient demons are extinct. Certainly in this universe.]
“…”
Alan had a lot to say, but he just kept his mouth shut.
It was an argument that would only waste energy if you refuted it.
But he couldn’t hide his dejected expression.
The goddess looked at Alan and smiled slightly.
The smile on the sickly woman’s face was more horrifying than the devil’s laugh in Eren’s eyes.
after-
Alan let out a long breath and regained his composure.
And smiled at the goddess.
It was useless to resent her and burn her insides.
Originally, God was such a being.
He created a sense of guilt, but he himself did not have it.
A person who should not regret or regret his actions.
Even if you are given another chance, you have to make the same choices as before.
that was god
So it was foolish to question God.
It’s best to get what God can only get through prayer.
“All right. I knew very well that ＜Deletio＞ was an extinction magic limited to this universe.”
[As expected, Alan is quick to understand.]
“But there is something I want to ask you.”
[Tell me. ‘Cause I’ll tell you everything I know Instead, as always, a price is required.]
Alan nodded.
A long time ago, Alan, born as the son of a serf, first met the goddess when he was 12 years old.
Appearing mysteriously, she told the boy Alan, ‘You are a special child’.
Alan was curious about her identity, and she said she would answer if he did her favor.
The first request of the goddess was to kill the greedy lord.
self-
The goddess, who used to be huge, shrunk in size and became shorter than Alan.
Then, as a condition of answering the question, he asked Alan.
[Hug me.]
Alan opened his arms and took her in his arms.
and asked her
“The number of demons banished to other universes is incalculable. The number of universes is also uncountable. I would like to know if there are any demons exiled to Earth’s universe.”
The goddess buried her face in Alan’s chest and opened her mouth.
[there is. Just one.]
Alan was relieved.
It would have been better if there were none, but it was fortunate that there were not many of them.
With just one, ‘Choi Min-hyeok’ would be able to subdue them without difficulty.
[Laves.]
“yes?!”
Hearing the devil’s name from the mouth of the goddess, Alan was frightened.
[Laveth went to space there.]
“Why do you have to…”
[Perhaps he has a deep relationship with you.]
The goddess looked up at Alan and smiled mischievously.
Laves was the ancient king of demons.
***
‘oh my god!’
It was the most embarrassing memory Alan had ever received from the tree.
An ancient demon from the world Alan lived in is here in space.
even the strongest one.
The manager explained about Laves.
“Labes is a disaster itself. Sometimes it is embodied, but usually it works without substance. Where Laves stays, drought and famine begin, epidemics circulate, and people go mad and kill each other. Eventually all living things will die and perish.”
“okay? So, aren’t you already on Earth?”
Even now, somewhere on the planet, people are suffering from drought and famine, and somewhere else, they are going crazy and killing each other.
Not to mention the epidemic.
He was asking if it was because of Laves.
“no. Compared to when Laves came, the situation on Earth now is like heaven. There is something called the ＜Labeth Law＞.”
“what is that?”
“In the place where Laves stays, half of the living things die and disappear every day. Then, on the first day of the week, everyone else dies.”
“So you haven’t come to Earth yet.”
“Because the universe is so vast, it may not come forever.”
Exactly where in space Laves fell is unknown.
If it’s another galaxy, you can let go.
There are trillions of galaxies within the range of human observation alone, and each galaxy has hundreds of billions of stars.
Among the many stars, the probability that Laves will come to the solar system to which the earth belongs is close to zero.
***
I woke up to the morning sunlight coming through the curtains.
I checked my phone and there was a text message.
It was a text from Chae Su-ryun.
I slept well thanks to you.
‘Because I shouldn’t be like this.’
I need to meet her and make it clear again.
Please don’t send me text messages like this.
From noble mtl dot com
It would be a big deal if it was leaked and a scandal erupted.
It hurts not only her, but also me.
It is acceptable for her sasaeng fans to come in droves and break all the windows of the gold and silver room.
What I was truly afraid of was being targeted by netizens.
It was clear that Chae Su-ryun would reveal my identity to reveal the identity of the man she met.
Then, on the day the graduation album was released, I was done.
‘I don’t even want to imagine it.’
At times like this, I want to completely erase my past.
The simplest and surest way is to wash your entire identity.
All I have to do is abandon the name Choi Min-hyeok and buy Nevis nationality like the golems and live as a fake identity.
But I wasn’t too keen on it.
I lost my parents when I was young and my grandmother raised me.
And when my grandmother passed away a few years ago, I was completely alone.
What will be left after the orphan Cheon-ae abandons her original identity?
It’s a past that I don’t want others to find out, but I couldn’t bear to throw it away.
‘You’re too sentimental from the morning.’
Eulachacha-
I got up from bed and stretched as hard as I could.
Then the gloomy feeling seemed to fly away.
When I came out to the living room, the smell of soybean paste stew wafted from the kitchen.
Lalala-
Kim Seo-yeon was humming a song while preparing breakfast.
“Is something good?”
“No, I just get excited every day! Sit. The stew is complete!”
When we sat down at the table, she placed bubbling soybean paste stew on the table.
Delicious side dishes were also prepared.
While eating, I told her about my concerns.
Since I started my business, there will be a lot of external activities, but I was worried that I might become famous and my identity might be stolen.
“The biggest problem is old photos, right?”
“yes.”
“I will clean up the old photos of the boss that are circulating on the Internet. I can’t delete the graduation album, so I’ll edit it to look similar to the one I have now.”
Among the newly created service industries in modern times, there are ‘digital laundry’ and ‘digital funeral’.
It is to completely erase personal information floating around the Internet.
Kim Seo-yeon will do that.
However, all she could cover was an online photo.
Offline things I have to deal with myself.
‘I’ll have to go back to Hongcheon later.’
I graduated from elementary, middle and high school in Hongcheon and went to school in Chuncheon, near the university.
When I have free time, I will go there and erase what needs to be erased from the traces of my past and fabricate what needs to be fabricated.
“Try the soy sauce crab. I made this myself!”
I rubbed some delicious rice on the crab shells and went out of the house.
Then, walking slowly towards the gold and silver room, I thought about the future.
Having secured the gold to run the factory for over 400 years, I tried to enjoy life by doing what I wanted to do for about 10 or 20 years.
However, an unexpected variable occurred.
‘An ancient devil.’
As the manager said, the probability of Laves coming to Earth is very low.
It may be lower than the probability of winning the lottery prize every week until death.
Rather, there is a high probability that an alien with a high level of civilization will arrive on Earth before him.
However, I had a hunch that one day I would definitely run into Laves.
We may live for eternity and meet in the very distant future, or we may meet in the near future.
‘What will happen will surely happen.’
So, this was not the time to play around.
It could suddenly come crashing down on Earth in a few years.
There was only one thing I could do in this situation.
You must have equal or greater strength than Alan before you run into him.
That way you can subdue him.
Anyway, after 5 years, the elixir extraction plant will be upgraded to the highest level.
However, we should not just let time pass by.
You should try to grow as quickly as possible.
The method has already been determined.
It is to find another elixir extraction facility hidden on Earth.
“I’m sure there are other places besides Mongolia.”
I had a hunch that there must be another elixir extraction facility somewhere besides the underground space I discovered this time.
If you find them, you can absorb a large amount of elixir.
To deal with a strong enemy, of course, you need to have a lot of Elixir.
And as a bonus, the sap of desire is enriched, speeding up the tree’s growth.
As the tree grows, the number of magical knowledge gained per day also increases.
In the end, the more I find a new elixir extraction facility, the more my elixir holdings increase and the faster I grow.

malevolent malevolent-
There were more guests at the Geumeunbang than yesterday, when the opening ceremony was held.
Photos of Chae Su-ryun and Song Woo-yeon wearing jewelry from our store were already spreading rapidly on the Internet.
Marketing using top stars worked well.
There were also people who came from very far away.
“Please give me the same necklace as Song Woo-yeon’s!”
I thought that the advantage of our store’s jewelry was that the designs did not overlap, but that was not what the customer wanted.
Many customers wanted the exact same design as the accessories worn by Chae Su-ryun and Song Woo-yeon.
Of course not all are like that.
Some customers bought their favorite pieces from the display case, while others custom-made them.
In any case, there was no reason to necessarily stick to processing the jewelry so that the design did not overlap.
You have to follow the customer’s ‘need’.
However, it will not be mass-produced.
Depending on the characteristics of the product, it will be produced in a limited quantity and only one very expensive product will be produced.
“president!”
Kim Seo-yeon came running with an excited expression.
Then he handed me his cell phone.
“Look at this! It’s already spinning!”
“what? Jap!?”
A Chinese shopping mall app was open on the phone screen.
“Nonsense!”
They were selling fake accessories worn by Chae Su-ryun and Song Woo-yeon.
I heard from Daniel, a Swiss watchmaker, that ‘Chinese fakes’ are a headache.
Even though a new product was secretly produced and released, the next day, China started producing a copy of the same design.
‘It wasn’t someone else’s story!’
Copying our store’s jewelry in just one day!
Their ability to print fakes was like magic.
It was even already sold in online shopping malls.
At 1/1,000th the price of the original!
What’s even more shameless is that they even use photos of Chae Su-ryun and Song Woo-yeon to promote counterfeit products.
They stole the entire product as well as the advertising model.
“These bastards to kill!”
Kim Seo-yeon continued.
“After investigation, a factory near Guangzhou, China, is producing counterfeits!”
“okay!”
I immediately drove to the airport.
Arriving at Incheon Airport, I secretly boarded a plane departing for Guangzhou, China.
Just like when I went to Mongolia before, I hid myself with invisibility magic and boarded for free.
And after a 4-hour flight, we arrived at Guangzhou Airport.
There was a factory that made fakes about 30km away from the airport.
‘They’re all dead!’
Shuung-
I flew quickly towards it.
