Above the cloud approaching Cymopoleia.

Kang-ryup Jeo, who had thrown one of the prongs, squinted his eyes and observed the ship.

Jeos barrier skills were low due to lazy training, but even he could tell that the ships barrier wasnt broken.

I used a prong, and theres still a barrier left?

Jeos face twisted into an ugly scowl.

He thought there was no fault with him, so all this was Sangboshimgeumpa to blame.

Damn it! This dumb pitchfork cant control its own power!

His hand clutching a sack tightened around it.

I need to use another prong, but soon after midnight, Sangboshimgeumpas prongs will be restored.

There was an item card that glowed in ominous colors in Jeos arms.

And I have the thing from the Demons, too, yes, there will be no problem at all!

Jeo lifted the Sangboshimgeumpa and pointed at Cymopoleia.

* * *

Now I have to face the prong without Jiho Hwangs barrier.

I made sure there wasnt anyone around here.

Today, there were no clouds and the moon was bright.

I activated the most suitable Gwanglim for evacuation.

Gwanglim, use players trajectory.

<Use the target characters Gwanglim, Witaechun Under the Moon.

The Gwanglim I used was Lightning Flash of the Dark Hye-ji Ohs.

It was the best moving skill when there was moonlight.

Thump!

My body moved so much with just a light leap.

When I moved away from the ships bow, a psychic wave flew towards the ship from outside the barrier.

Rumble-!

Roar-!

The barrier was destroyed in an instant, and the surface of the ship, made of Other-world metal, crumpled like a sheet of paper.

The front deck was mangled as if a huge beast clawed through it.

The pillar where I hid my body was also heavily damaged.

I couldnt believe this power wasnt his all, just a little something to break the barrier and get the security team away from the heirs.

Now there are five remaining prongs.

Beep.

The announcement that there was a natural psychic wave phenomenon had arrived in my device from the ships captain.

By this time, the captain and the crew must have noticed something was wrong.

Even if there are players among the sailors, most of them will be in the middle of the Other-world.

The heirs will get reported too, so they would have to send the security team to find out the cause.

Theyre here.

A security team arrived, including Chul Kim, Suhyuks exclusive secretary.

The design of the business suit was two types, so both Juo and the TC security team must have come.

The natural psychic wave emission was so powerful.

It was way over SR class.

Can we stop it when it comes again?

If we emit a psychic wave at the same time, it would be possible to change the path of it.

In the middle of their discussion, I felt the feeling of a powerful psychic wave approaching from a distance.

Among the security team, the Insight Skill user who stood in front of the crowd exclaimed.

The psychic wave is coming. The expected class is SR +++, no, higher than SRR class! It will hit Cymopoleia within 30 seconds!

A cry of shock broke out among the security team.

Oh my god!

If that hits Cymopoleia then the ship will

Pull up the output of the psychic wave. Kim Chul, you use the barrier item!

Got it!

Hit the psychic wave obliquely to deflect the path. Understand?

Under the direction of the team leader, the team members raised the psychic wave powers and busily used their items.

After the collision of Other-worlds, body and security guards had to put their life on the line.

Even so, the security team will have no experience or skills related to the natural psychic wave.

Their eyes were full of determination.

There were some who looked terrified, but they did not seem to be thinking about running away.

They wont run away even though they think they may not be able to stop it.

It was such a deep contrast compared to the guards in the Dream Auction.

Of course, the woman guard who took the risk to save Se-eum is an exception.

I knew they were going to come out like this, so I could easily decide what move to make.

Ive been watching their behavior in the game.

My next move was already determined.

<Use the target characters Gwanglim, Military-conducted Marching Song.

The Gwanglim I used was that of Seung-hyun Park, a playable character I saved on April Fools Day.

Seung-hyun had a Gwanglim that greatly increased the players physical abilities and output of psychic waves.

If there are so many people, it will be difficult to maintain the military-conducted marching song for a long time. But it is possible to activate it the moment the psychic waves touch!

It was just when the security teams psychic wave output reached its peak.

I targeted my Gwanglim at them and sent the power.

According to the game, they should be experiencing a hum or whistle in their ears.

The sound of the wind blowing could be heard in my ears, too.

Whoosh-!

Wait. Do you hear that?

Whistling?

Now is not the time to care about that!

Pshaw!

The prongs psychic wave.

The guard teams psychic wave strengthened by Seung-hyun Parks military-conducted marching song.

The two forces collided.

Bang! Splash-!

As the team leader intended to, Jeos psychic wave missed Cymopoleia and landed on the other side of the sea.

A huge ocean wave formed, but because the power had weakened, it wasnt enough to bring down Cymopoleia.

Okay! If I keep at it, I will be able to stop one more prong.

Four remaining prongs.

One by using Seung-hyuns Gwanglim.

Another by using Loose Change of the Eraser.

The next, I will

Thump.

While I was thinking,

one of the security teams members collapsed.

The body and the psychic wave levels were not normal.

Others began to stumble.

This cant be!

I immediately sent a message to To-yeon Ok.

[Me] Increase the output of the moon palace map to the maximum.

[To-yeon Ok] Huh? Why?

[Me] Quickly.

Seconds felt like hours.

It was Jiho Hwang, not To-yeon Ok, who answered.

[Jiho Hwang] The moon rabbit is gibbering because of a headache.

[Jiho Hwang] The psychic poison we saw at Seokchon Lake is spreading at Cymopoleia.

[Jiho Hwang] Soon the poison will spread to the place where you are hiding.

Psychic poison that contaminates the body that has psychic properties.

Jeo must have released the poison.

In the game, there was no freeze-type Other-worlds in the sea. So I thought it would be difficult to use the poison!

The demons must have found a way to use psychic poison outside of the frozen Other-world.

And they passed it to Kang-ryup Jeo.

[Jiho Hwang] For prongs left with psychic poison released.

In addition to the prongs, Jeo had other moves planned and executed.

Now, it was time to decide how to deal with his moves.

Dain Ans specialty of suppressing poison and curses lasts only 10m around her. Its impossible to control the poison that spreads throughout this deck.

I could not tell where the poison would spread.

Maybe it will affect players fighting in the back of Cymopoleia.

This poison itself isnt deadly, but if one gets poisoned with it during a fight with Enemies

The tragedy of Seokchon Lake, where players addicted to psychic poison were wiped out in a fight with Enemies, will be repeated again.

And my playable characters, my friends, and their acquaintances were attacking the Other-world.

It was sickening to imagine what would happen if they were poisoned.

[Jiho Hwang] I think I have to intervene now.

If Jiho makes a move, getting rid of Kang-ryup Jeo will be simple.

However, Red Tigers self-sacrifice would be in vain, and the main villain, who will know that the Tiger clan had intervened, will hide its tail again, making things difficult in the future.

[Me] Dont come.

I sent the message and made my mind.

Cant hesitate. No time!

After midnight, the limit number of prongs will reset.

I immediately pulled out an SSR+++class item card, Loose Change of the Eraser, which erases the possibility of a certain rarity or less skill or item.

First of all, lets clear the poison with Loose Change of the Eraser.

This means I lose one means to erase one prong.

Pshaw!

Effects of the SSR+++class item activated.

The shadow of a person wearing a white bear skin wrapped around the ship.

As the shadow disappeared, the men of the guard team began to breathe comfortably.

Alright. But the problem starts now.

I didnt just lose the means to get rid of the prongs.

You, crow mask!

Use of items with high rarity.

Naturally, the flow of power is bound to be seen.

My location was discovered by Jeo.

He saw me in disguise wearing a raven mask.

I see, it was you who blocked my prongs!

Kang-ryup Jeos voice rang out.

Kang-ryup Jeo was quite close to Pyun-deuk Choi.

It was natural of him to identify the Crow mask that broke down his close acquaintance, Pyun-deuk Choi.

Die.

The fifth prong turned towards me.

I triggered one of the players trajectories.

Whoosh-!

The teeth of the pitchfork pierced my abdomen.

* * *

The back deck of Cymopoleia.

In front of the SR+++class Other-world, which emerged in the form of an island.

The attack force, Won-woo Do, Hye-ji Oh, Su-gyeom Joo, and master Kwak.

The defense force, Suhyuk Joo, Hyo-don Meang, and master Kwaks friend, a man in Hanbok.

Oh Hye-ji tried to stay, worried about leaving only first-year students behind, but Kwaks friend volunteered to watch over them.

This is easy.

Thank god its just before midnight! You can use Gwanglim without caring about the time.

Suhyuk had activated his Gwanglim and slashed Enemies apart.

Hyo-don activated his Gwanglim and tied Enemies feet.

There were no gaps for the Enemies to get into the ship.

Hmm.

Master Kwaks friend had nothing to do.

Since at some point, he just stopped fighting and watched Hyo-don fighting.

The hell? Hes weird.

Hyo-don didnt feel good to be watched like that but decided to put up with it since he was a friend of Suhyuks mentor.

Instead, he turned his thoughts away and talked to Suhyuk.

Why isnt vice prez coming?

Well maybe he didnt see the alarm? Or maybe seasickness.

Nah, hes doing something suspicious, probably.

Growl-!

The conversation between the two did not last long.

New Enemy trying to attack them.

But soon, Hyo-dons jab and Suhyuks two blades hit the Enemy.

The man, who Hyo-don had nicknamed Hanbok Master, watched their fight intensely.

* * *

As a chief of Cheonbong who has been through many battlefields, and as Jeopalgae, who completed the journey to the west, his instincts were telling him something.

He had to kill this man.

So, before prying any information, he used a prong.

The crow-masked man was stumbling with pierced abdomen.

The crow-masked man was trying to lift his hands, trembling with pain.

The bastard! He still can move after being hit by my prong!

If the teeth of Sangboshimgeumpa pierce someones body, the body is torn by the number of remaining prongs, and their psychic waves get twisted.

Because the precious prong is used only to destroy one being, the effects were extremely promising.

Although it was less powerful than the first few prongs, it was not a pain that humans could endure.

He isnt an Original or its descendant.

Some humans were insolent enough to have unnaturally high defense or self-recovery, so he may be of that type.

Seeing that the destruction of the body caused by the prongs was slow, he had to be recovering at the same time his body was getting destroyed.

That doesnt mean the pain is gone!

Is this guy used to pain?

Kang-ryup was wondering if he had to use another one of his prongs.

Ugh.

Just then, the crow-masked man reached out and grabbed the handle of the pitchfork that pierced his body.

..He laughed?

The mouth was not covered by the crow mask.His lips were curled and he was smiling very suspiciously.

Kang-ryup Jeo was bewildered.

Meanwhile, Ui-shins head rang with a system message that sounded only to him.

Skill Usage of all things has been activated.
