＜ Chapter 159 ＞
hook.
A small fire was created in a space where there was nothing.
frown
The sound of something breaking echoed with a light vibration, and the air began to stir.
Fire.
Dark red flames that exuded an ominous energy just by existing increased their momentum and burned, and a single foot stepped into reality through the flames.
“after.”
A slightly tired-looking man wearing a tight-fitting suit and trench coat.
John had come out of the other world.
“Amazing.”
“colonel.”
Strydom, who was standing like a steel tower, opened his mouth a little, and John, who had a calm expression, nodded his head.
“I felt strange, so I came out to see it. It must have been a space barrier.”
“It was pretty intimidating. I didn’t detect it at all, but I was dragged in before I knew it.”
Strydom’s expression became serious.
It was John who reached the level of superhuman with this ability.
In addition, John’s ability is to manipulate the composition of matter itself, so he is superior to any other person with this ability when it comes to sensing his surroundings.
It was as if he had been kidnapped without even noticing it, so no one in Luna could say he was safe.
“Something like that isn’t common. Getting out wasn’t too difficult.”
“… I don’t think there are that many people with the ability to burn the space barrier itself.”
After having a pleasant conversation with the players, they all turned into light and disappeared, but the space where John was confined did not change.
In a situation where he couldn’t see any way out, John pondered for a while and came up with his own keyword, the incarnation of destruction.
It wasn’t too difficult for the incarnation of destruction that could burn a star certified by the devil to burn space, and it was easy to come into reality.
Of course, this was John’s point of view, and it was shocking for Straydom, who was also a superhuman.
If you set up your will and concentrate your strength, Strydom will be able to break the space barrier.
But he can’t make a casual expression like John.
Breaking a single world would require a price, and it was clear that it would consume a considerable amount of power.
‘It’s a very unusual ability, but it’s still amazing.’
Indeed, John spoke to Strydom, who felt a chill in his chest for the first time in a long time.
“I feel confident. colonel.”
“assurance?”
“yes.”
Strydom hardened his expression at John’s cool smile and cool life.
“I’m pretty sure what I’m preparing will be quite damaging to the devil.”
A situation where players were sent to stop John as if they had been waiting.
It was a story that John was that much of a threat, and Strydom, who understood the meaning, nodded as well.
“I must be prepared.”
I was confident that I could hit the enemy.
And the military is an organization that moves faster than anywhere else if you have that confidence.

As the sun went down and the darkness began to fall, the streets of Luna lit up one by one.
Except for the upper few areas, Luna’s streets at night are extremely dangerous, so most people disappear to a safe place, but there are always exceptions.
The night in Area 53 is brighter and more colorful than anywhere else in Luna.
In order to seduce citizens who visit the district in search of pleasure, prostitutes dressed in splendid flirting flirt, and smirks with bright smiles and bowed shoulders cringe.
Secret trades have been made between alleys that are dark because the light does not shine, and robbers are burning their eyes to rob the lost.

Members of the Borkoff mafia in well-fitting suits are watching the streets with their eyes shining, and a drunken drunkard can be seen quietly being dragged into an alleyway.
At least he would not be in good shape, and if he was unlucky, he might lose his life.
However, no one expressed dissatisfaction with it, and with a casual look, it once again seduces passers-by.
This is normal on these streets, and it is the Borkov Mafia who are actually protecting them.
The kids in the back alley looked at the gang members with envy, and the mafia with its shoulders upright put on an arrogant expression.
Being a member of an organization that occupies an area is something to be proud of, but since he learned martial arts and became a powerful person, he deserves to be arrogant enough.
But that’s for a while.
“hello!”
The gang member, who had an arrogant expression on his face, hardened his face and bowed like a thunderbolt.
The kid in the back alley made a surprised expression while watching his waist bent at close to 90 degrees. For a while, the kid with a white face hid inside the alley.
that buck
A man in a trench coat walked down the street with a tired expression, accompanied by the usual sound of footsteps.
You can see it everywhere, and especially here, you can think of it as a salaryman visiting in search of pleasure.
However, the man was never a salaryman, and that is a fact known to anyone living in Area 53.
“Good job.”
“thank you!”
He shouted in a loud voice with a thrilled expression on his light words, but no one said anything to him.
Being acquainted with confessor John Doe is something to be proud of anywhere.
Perhaps the members of the organization would add weight to what they heard from John and say that they had a great friendship, but John didn’t care.
There is a dark way to live in the shadows, and John is a person who doesn’t care too much about trivial things.
After all, anyone who knew John at all would know that spreading rumors about him would be suicidal.
John’s footsteps across the street, being warmly welcomed by the gang members lined up all over the street, entered the residential area.
Even in District 53, it is a place that corresponds to the wealthy village, and it is the place where John and Lina live.
“You are tired.”
John rubbed his temple lightly and muttered involuntarily.
It didn’t happen that much, but the people I met weren’t normal people.
In two days, I met five superhumans and got them to cooperate.
The battle with the players was nothing, and even if you were a superman, you were tired.
As he approached the house, his mind relaxed a little without realizing it, and the fatigue he had been suppressing had risen.
“this. So, are you a little sorry?”
Empty!
With a voice, John’s foot kicked off the ground, and in an instant, he opened the distance.
clap.
In his hands was a revolver and a knife that spewed out blue light, and John with a hard face stared ahead with terrifying eyes.
‘I didn’t feel it.’
Due to the battle during the day, he was looking around with this ability more than usual, but even so, he didn’t notice the approach at all.
It’s a story that opponents are by no means formidable, and John is not one to underestimate his enemies.
“I must have surprised you.”
The man standing under the lamppost stepped forward.
A middle-aged man with a small but sturdy build, neatly dressed.
It was a very common sight on the street, and it didn’t cause any discomfort, but John thought it was more dangerous.
‘I don’t know what kind of power you have. I’ll be thrilled.’
A red light appeared in John’s eyes, and his vision, which began to peek at the other side of the world, did his best to dig up everything about the middle-aged man, but there was nothing he could read.
Although limited, John’s gaze, which read even Kaidel’s power, couldn’t read anything.
This confirms a frightening fact.
‘······He is stronger than Kaidel. How can a person like this go around without taking any action?’
There are quite a few superhumans hiding in Luna, and except for a few special cases, most of them are monitored by the Executioner.
If you don’t know that you are a superman because you are completely stuck in your own hideout like Hawk.
If you are in a huge organization like Straydom.
It is safe to say that there is almost no situation except for cases where they have just become superhuman and have not received any special measures, such as John and Fioren.
However, a force stronger than Kaidel appeared before John’s eyes without any restrictions.
John’s brain entered a high-speed accident, and John, who looked at the middle-aged man with scary eyes, was able to draw a conclusion.
“… the Congress side?”
“Hoo.”
The middle-aged man’s mouth opened slightly at John’s muttering, and his eyes drew an arc.
“I heard the story, but you are really quick to judge the situation. I’ll be sure to get things done.”
The middle-aged man shook his head with a proud expression and opened his mouth with a smile.
“It is called Byron. It definitely has something to do with Congress. Oh, isn’t it now?”
With the words, momentum began to creep up, and John’s expression hardened as he watched it.
“I was the mayor.”
“market!”
Looking at John, who was startled by the unexpected identity, Byron continued.
“I came because I thought I needed a little conversation. Fixer John Doe.”
The momentum that had begun to grow took control of the space, and the landscape around Beyron began to distort.
“No.”
The physical pressure began just by emitting momentum, and the secret but heavy pressure squeezed John’s body.
“Should I call it the Seed of Destruction?”
With Bayron’s words, the entire space around him was distorted and his vision reversed.
***
“Kuk!”
John didn’t hesitate at the pressure that squeezed his whole body and the sudden change in his vision.
John, who quickly threw his body away from his seat and rolled around, cast a terrifying gaze at Vayron and stared at him, and Veyron just stood there the same way.
Byron didn’t do anything special, just acted like a deer who jumped up in surprise at the jepul, but there was no shame in John’s heart.
Because of that, I couldn’t even guess the opponent’s strength.
While staring at Veyron with one eye, John’s expression twisted horribly as he scanned the surroundings with the other.
It was obviously the street leading home, but the place he was standing now was a completely different place.
badlands.
There was no sign of life, and the sight reached was a wasteland with only crumbly wilderness.
The situation where I couldn’t even feel the wind and was forcibly dragged into a wasteland that seemed to be full of death.
“How is it?”
Staring at John who was very nervous, Vayron opened his mouth, and John, who looked at Vayron with wary eyes, replied.
“It is desolate.”
“right?”
Veyron shrugged, a look of accusation on his face.
“It is so desolate. No life force. It is a dead land.”
Byron’s voice calmly penetrated John’s ears.
“This is where Luna started.”
Byron’s appearance as he spoke seemed to have aged in an instant.
