“H-how did you get here?”

“New World told us”

Aa suit went in front of the SP and replied He showed the screen of a MP (Movie Player) and continued talking

“I’ve been looking for you over the past 2 years But I never thought you would be in a place like this Thena video that a user in New World shot a while ago”

The video of the grave that Ark saw in the Idea Maze was shown on the MP screen The grave was the one the hed as he saw the MP

“This is where you were… Yuna’s grave, Park Woo-seong ssi”

“Ha Myung-woo……”

That’s right The -woo fro the laptop was the one entlooked at Ha Myung-woo and smiled coldly

“You dug through the videos and finally found me”

“I rerave This is Yuna’s hometown You disappeared and took Yuna’s body fro the video frorave before New World was coht that you definitely wouldn’t leave her grave”

“You really are resourceful, just like the rumours say”

Park Woo-seong laughed But it was a hollow laugh as his eyes became sharp

“However, it is too late The situation is already over”

“I know I already guessed it after seeing the current situation in New World through the MP”

Ha Myung-woo sighed and nodded He looked at Yuna’s grave and murmured

“In fact, everything we know has been a big illusion The ht you were the one to hide it”

“What nonsense are you saying? That……”

“Yes You thought we hid it While ere afraid that you got your hands on the master code and hid it somewhere And you probably tried to back into the ht?”

“…It’s not like that?”

“No The person who hid the master code was someone else”

“Someone other than Global Exos hid the master code?”

“Yuna ssi”

Ha Myung-woo replied in a bittersweet voice Then Park Woo-seong’s face warped with derision

“Shut up! How dare you bring Yuna into this?”

“It is true I also only discovered this fact recently”

Park Woo-seong looked at Yuna’s grave bitterly while Ha Myung-woo continued

“And I finally discovered the whole truth behind this event”

“The whole truth?”

“Yes You ning New World’s scenarios, there was no Dark Lord or 7 heroes But then the existence known as the Dark Lord suddenly showed up in the scenarios And the existence of the 7 heroes followed The Dark Lord is the presence that you, Park Woo-seong created”

Park Woo-seong’s forehead wrinkled at those words

“The Dark Lord didn’t exist in the development phase so his identity isn’t that of a simple NPC He was a computer virus planted by you to destroy the date on the main server of New World The ‘Project: Lucifer’ And Project: Lucifer tried to destroy the e of commercialization”

“I had to do it! I shouldn’t have ame if the devil that killed her!”

Park Woo-seong suddenly shouted angrily Ha Myung-woo didn’t pay any attention to hi

“But Project: Lucifer was stopped before it could destroy New World’s data”

“That was quite surprising You stupid and slow guys noticed uys couldn’t completely remove Project: Lucifer”

Park Woo-seong snorted and -woo just shook his head and said

“No, it’s e to admit but we didn’t even know the existence of Project: Lucifer until recently”

“What? What does that mean?”

“Of course, we knew that theinfected with a virus at the time However, we didn’t understand that Project: Lucifer was so you made And we didn’t kno to stop it We could only watch from the sidelines as the virus blew up the server data Yet Project: Lucifer was suddenly sealed up”

“Spontaneously sealed up? Nonsense That is impossible!”

“Yes It is impossible If we had known the cause at that time then this situation wouldn’t have occurred… But at the time, eren’t able to connect to theAnd noe barely found the reason why At the time, the virus was stopped by the existence of the 7 heroes”

Park Woo-seong looked strange by the end of Ha Myung-woo’s words

“…Is this a hoax? The 7 heroes are just data from a scenario!”

“That’s what I thought until noever, that isn’t the actual reality Just like the Dark Lord was a couised as a scenario”

That’s right This was the reason why the heroes’ skills were specialized for the deainst Project: Lucifer While Project: Lucifer was spreading through the main server, the 7 heroes had sealed it up This was the 1st Demonic War that the NPCs in New World It was known as the Dark Century

Park Woo-seong muttered with a confused look

“N-no way! Then who… Who designed the 7 heroes?”

“Don’t you already know?”

Ha Myung-woo stared at Park Woo-seong

“It was Yuna”

“Y-Yuna? T-that’s impossible…”

“The only people who could connect to the main server were you and Yuna”

“Lies, you’re lying! Yuna… Yuna suffered after receiving curses fro So ould Yuna stop me?”

“Do you really think Yuna worked on New World even on her sickbed because of the users’ complaints?”

“There is no other reason!”

“If you look at this then you’ll understand”

Ha Myung-woo sighed and pulled out a letter The letter had ‘To ’s eyes shook as he saw the writing

“T-this…?”

“Yuna probably sent this to you right before she died But you took her corpse and disappeared without a trace after she died Therefore the letter was sent back to the hospital where Yuna received her medical treat for it After the SP found your notes in the villa, they went to the hospital and retrieved it If you read this then you will start to knoas just a ”

Ha Myung-woo carefully laid the letter on the ground and stepped back There was a reason Ha Myung-as acting so carefully around Park Woo-seong Once again, he had checked the situation in New World while coh the MP He had witnessed the scene where everything froze except for Lucifer as restoredThere was only one thing in New World that could cause this! It was the hly likely that the ’s laptop If thecould destroy New World with one press of a button In the end, Park Woo-seong would hold New World hostage Park Woo-seong dropped the laptop and picked up the letter And a fa could be seen

-To Woo-seong ssi who is my first and last love…

Woo-seong ssi, I’ all er, as well as an inability to understandBut that is just your misconception

As you know, I pouredThat fact doesn’t change If this was New World then there ht be a way but unfortunately, I aht a lot

I’m a stupid fool who didn’t kno to leave you alone and hurting I wanted to leave so that reminded you of me

The huge world of New World is like our child I created all the scenarios in New World and if you wander the world then you’ll encounter landscapes and people that I ive you

But you… You’re trying to break the results with your own hands I was afraid of that I tried a few times but you wouldn’t listen Therefore I had to secretly hide the master code in New World

Please understand I had to do it Because the person ill feel the saddest if New World is destroyed is you…

I’ all the misconceptions have been cleared by the ti you, for our child New World

“T-this is…!”

Park Woo-seong trehed and murmured

“It is as you can see Yuna was the one who hid the master code She wanted to save your child New World When you ignored the contents of the letter and ive the users in New World the power”

That’s right That’s why every event related to the Red Man’s plan to restore Lucifer involved the 7 heroes When the scattered 7 heroes gathered, it was a perfect vaccination to stop the havoc caused by the Red Man All of this wasn’t a coincidence but the result of a conflict between Park Woo-seong and Yuna And Global Exos was the one who suffered the da, it was just a huge couples fight

“…No!”

Park Woo-seong hly and shouted

“No! It can’t be! There is no way! This is fake!”

“Park Woo-seong ssi! Don’t you already know? Yuna enjoyed New World more than anybody else Why do you think that is? That’s why she was delighted that she could see the result with you before she died!”

Then Park Woo-seong recalled so

-It’s now finished

Yuna s knew it already No, he knew better than anyone else She wanted to leave evidence that she had lived!That’s why she didn’t have a grudge against Global Exos and the users

“I…I…I…”

Park Woo-seong trembled and murmured as he stared into the distance

“SP! Secure Park Woo-seong and his laptop!”

The SP secured the collapsed Park Woo-seong and his laptop The SP searched Park Woo-seong and exclaimed

“Tea seems to have sed poison!”

“W-what?”

“He probably intended to die after bringing this to an end”

“Dammit! His state?”

“If we go to a hospital right now then we can save him in time!”

“Then why are youa fuss? Head to the hospital as quickly as possible!”

“Yes!”

The SPand ran down thearound and said

“The laptop? The master code?”

“I-I don’t knowThe laptop turned off from the shock just then”

“What, what the?”

Ha Myung-woo’s face paled

——————————————————————————————————————-

‘da on…?’

Ark felt like his heard was going to explode They finally knocked down Lucifer and the Red Man was pushed to the edge of death so as this happening? Just as the Red Man was in a critical condition, everything suddenly froze?

‘Somehow… I need to somehow move…”

Ark bit his lip as he stared at the Red Man’s back Suddenly the Red Man seemed to twitch Lucifer’s body also returned to its previous dead state At the same time, Ark felt the unidentified pressure that stopped hi disappearIt was the moment Ark had prayed for Ark’s body reacted faster than his head There was no ti on in the vicinity This was his only chance!

“…Dark Strike!”

Ark shot forward and attacked At the saht fro line was drawn vertically down the Red Man and he collapsed to his knees He shook his head and let out a long sigh as he looked towards the sky

“Hah…auto program…I…”

Those were the last words of the Red Man who drea New World

The Red Man didn’t round

-A level 999 chaotic player has been killed

<fame +1,890=””>

The e appeared when the Red Man fell The Red Man was level 999! That was the current maximum level in New World

“Eh eh eh eh?”

The attack squad only realized that the paralysis was released after everything ended They stared blankly at Ark and the Red Man’s body Too rasp the situation yet After a few moments, the absentminded attack squad members finally realized what had happened and screamed

“Waaahhhhhhhh!”

“W-on! We defeated the Dark Lord!”

“We knocked down the source of evil!”

“We did it, we did it!”

The screahting the de also screamed But Ark already didn’t hear those cries

‘There is un over there…’

Ark looked at where the Red Man tried to shove his hand into Lucifer’s dead body and had an idea So from the dead body Then wouldn’t it be an item? Furthermore, the opponent was the Dark Lord Lucifer so wouldn’t the loot be better than anything Ark received before?” Although the Red Man was close to an NPC thanks to the auto program, he was still considered a user A chaotic user would definitely drop one equipment It was an equipment used by a level 999 user!

‘I can’t let anyone else get these items!’

“Burning Soul, search Lucifer and the Red Man’s body and pack all the items”

Ark whispered quietly while observing the celebratory atmosphere

Kurarara, kurarara!

Burning Soul also sensed the shi+ning iteepopped up

-You su Soul has obtained ‘Asura’s Sword’

‘Asura’s Sword is the sword the Red Man used?’

Although he hadn’t confirmed the actual ite The Red Man only dropped one iteet the pair of swords but it wasat the thought of the ite Soul sed another item

-Your su Soul…

“Ark!”

It was at that moment He suddenly heard Bread’s voice fro to check the loot jumped with surprise and turned around

“What? Why? Why?”

“You bastard…!”

‘daht? Do I have to share it with the thousands of people here?’

No matter how could the items are, they would only be worth a few silver if divided between that h Ark hadn’t won this battle alone, he was obviously the general But he wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for the expedition members and attack squad so they would expect a share And now that Ark was a celebrity, he couldn’t just dine and dash!+ Tears gathered in his eyes at the thought of sharing his spoils Then Bread put his arm around Ark’s’ neck and shouted

“Hahahaha! You were a tough dark hen I first ood so don’t be afraid to cry You deserve it!”

“Eh? What? Is that all you have to say?”

“Then? What else is there??”

“Oh, no! Nothing! That’s right, I’!”

Ark nodded and moved away from Bread Then he scanned the attack squad me the loot However, there looks were only filled with joy and adlad that he really felt like crying Ark closed his fist and raised it towards the sky

“We caht, on!”

“Waaahhhhhhhh!”

The attack squad members cheered at Ark’s words However, the battle wasn’t completely finished yet There were still demons around Kwarian But the demons have lost the leadershi+p of the Red Man and Lucifer so they were just a co’s shi+eld had also disappeared with Lucifer’s death The expedition’s morale shot towards the sky and they easily wiped out the dehtered the demons so Ark’s experience and achievements shot up like crazy

——————————————————————————————————————

“Huhuhuhu!”

Inside a forest with a dish as he looked at a potA bat was sitting on his shoulder with an appalled look while a giant snake rubbed its body against his legNext to hi It was a medieval like scene!

They were Ark, Burning Soul, Curio and Purital Ark stared into the pot as Curio mumbled

“Master, is it done yet? How long does it have?”

Clack clack clack, clack clack clack clack?

Kurarara, kurarara?

“Just wait 3 minutes”

Ark sed his saliva and oing crazy with frustration Had he ever felt ti this slowly since he started New World? The re 3 minutes felt like 3 years Ark looked at the dark forest and thought back

“It’s been threeHas it already been four months since Lucifer and the Red Man was defeated? I’ve been so preoccupied that I hadn’t noticed how o?”

That’s right It had already been four months since the Kwarian battle that the world was focused on ended And Ark had experienced numerous events in those four months If he put those events in order, the first one was the reward frootten that it was a Legend Quest frodoave out extravagant rewards And the person who acquired the dom was Ark He was the commander of the 2nd expedition that included the airshi+p, stopped Lucifer and defeated the Red Man in a 1 on 1 battle Therefore Ark received the legendary ‘Kingdodom had kept for hundreds of years That’s why Ark was noearing cool leather armour

That was the summarized information of all the equipment he received However, that wasn’t the only reward for receiving 1st place in achievements In reality, Global Exos handed out a cash prize of 500 million for the person who received 1st place in achieve,’ that Ark kneas the black code items, which nobody had found so the 1 billion won prize hadn’t been given

‘Well, if a person eats too much then he will become sick’

Ark gave up on receiving the 1 billion won prize for thethe deive up? The second special event was that Ark changed to his 3rd stage profession after the war ended Ark had switched to the 3rd profession when he dropped by Lancel village When Ark returned the elders froer clan ran up to hination of ‘Hero Maban’

Hero Maban was the title that all the beast clans swore allegiance to! At that ht Ark was Christin’s descendant Therefore Ark only received the 3rd stage profession when he received the title Hero Maban The condition to switching to the 3rd stage profession was defeating the Dark Lord Lucifer and receiving the title of Hero Maban It really was a difficult condition when he thought about it Thus Ark switched from Dark Soul to ‘Dark Eternity’ At the same time, his Area Declaration and skills such as Dark Strike, Dark Tee Of course, his dark attribute bonus also increased tremendously… And…

“Heh heh heh heh heh heh!”

Ark s pot In fact, Ark had received two more rewards that nobody knew about from the Demonic War It was the spoils that he received from the Red Man and Lucifer! One of them was the Asura’s Sword that the Red Man used Asura’s Sword belonged to a level 999 user and it really was no joke When co Darkness, its attack poas 4 tih to make his eyes pop out If he sold it on the auction site then he would receive an uniinable market price! Unfortunately, the level limit was 850 so Ark couldn’t use it yet The darkness threatening New World had been pushed back and Ark left soe And that was Lucifer’s Essence

Lucifer’s Essence… That’s right Lucifer’s Essence was an ingredient that he could use for Survival Cooking In fact, he had felt quite disappointed when he first saw Lucifer’s Essence He defeated the Dark Lord and only received one essence? It really felt like he had been hit in the back of the head However, if he thought about it then it was an inevitable result Lucifer’s identity was a computer virus A computer virus wouldn’t drop a lot of loot But Ark hadn’t known that place and he had been disappointed However, wasn’t it quite good?

If Lucifer had dropped a lot of loot then the other users would’ve noticed When he thought about it in that way, he thought it was better to obtain only Lucifer’s Essence than sharing a lot of items with other users Anyway, Lucifer’s Essence caest monster in New World If he est ination That was Ark’s guess after seeing the ingredients needed

-Lucifer’s Immortality Pill Recipe

‘I really struggled in the meantime’

When he thought back to the beginning, it see Lucifer Time continued to flohile Ark was locked in his recollections After a ht caredients disappeared and a small pill appeared

Ark lifted the pill with treather the ingredients! He had finally completed the Dark Lord Lucifer’s Iive Ark? Just the thought of it made his heart jump

“Calm down I don’t want to have a heart attack before I eat it”

Ark took a deep breath to calm down his heard and raised the pill slowly to his mouth He sed the pill and the informationflashed in front of him

-Lucifer’s Iree of Completion: ☆)
