Chapters Chapter 283: The Girl’s SOS (2) (1/2)

“Honey?”

Lee Chae-Rin, who was right next to Kang Chul-In, noticed a change in the air.

“Is there anything wrong?”

“No, nothing.”

Kang Chul-In shook his head.

“Just a standard report.”

“Doesn’t seem like it though?”

“You are being paranoid.”

“Hmm...”

Lee Chae-Rin narrowed her eyes and stared at Kang Chul-In.

Damn it, why does it have to be now!

Meanwhile, Kang Chul-In was struggling with conflicting ideas in his mind.

Amplifier Talisman? He certainly craved for it. He already owned the Overpower Bracelet. If he got his hands on the Amplifier Talisman, then he would have possession over two-thirds of the Trinity Impact set. Moreover, if he subjugated Brynhildr and took his Sonic Ring...

I would… truly become the strongest being in Pangaea.

Then, nobody could stop him for sure. A million enemy soldiers? He could annihilate them all with the Trinity Impact. He could be a living atomic bomb.

However, there was a problem.

If I leave this place...

His family would be disappointed.

“Honey.”

At that moment, Lee Chae-Rin whispered in Kang Chul-In’s ear.

“Go.”

“...!”

“Mother-in-law, Ninetails, Skadi, Arshelly and me… none of us will be sad or disappointed, I’m very sure.”

Sad or disappointed because the husband is busy? Or feeling lonely? Nonsense! That could certainly be possible for other families, but these were no ordinary ladies. As Kang Chul-In’s family members, they had to be prepared for such an occasion.

If not, how could they be together with Kang Chul-In, the ultimate ‘busy man’?

“M-Me too!”

Skadi suddenly appeared from nowhere.

“Your Majesty… is a busy man… but I’m not disappointed at all!”

She was timid, but expressed herself clearly.

“Mother-in-law!”

“Yes?”

“Mr. Chul-In has business to attend to in the other world!”

“Well, my son is a busy man indeed! Hohoho~! Tell him to go quickly!”

Park Sun-Ja was immune to any surprises.

“Husband~! All the best~!”

“Goodbye, daddy~! We will be waiting here~!”

Ninetails and Arshelly shared the same opinion.

Wow!

Kang Chul-In was deeply moved by his family’s response. Of course, he didn’t show it. How could a man reveal his emotions so hastily!?

“Mother.”

Kang Chul-In spoke to Park Sun-Ja.

“I will be back.”

“Sure~! Go ahead~! We will be waiting for you here.”

“Yes.”

Indeed, there was no need for him to be hesitant since he wasn’t leaving the place for good. Moreover, his family had a lot of time on their hands. They could tour around Earth’s various resorts for a month or two. When Kang Chul-In finally returned after work, they could travel again.

Kid...

Kang Chul-In began to make his way towards Pangaea.

What great timing...

Still, he couldn’t deny that it was a bad time for him to receive the call.

***

“O-oh my god, oh my god!”

Lily Sephardi glanced at the battlefield and walked around in circles anxiously.

The battle was one-sided.

Atal Ramanujan’s soldiers, led by Lee Ji-Tae, were advancing at an immense speed while annihilating her soldiers.

“Your Majesty, it’s not feasible to continue fighting!”

Her secretary, Rooibos, advised.

“I-I know… I know, but…!”

“Your Majesty, you have to call for a retreat!”

“But if we forfeit that place...!”

It had been three days since the start of the war. Her soldiers were currently fighting at a vital location in Zolushka. If she forfeited that place, her army had to retreat all the way back to Zolushka’s castle. They would then have to defend for their lives there as the final resort.

“Your Majesty, didn’t you contact the Supreme King of the West, Kang Chul-In? It’s wiser to first forfeit that land and enter a defensive mode. We can’t stop that many enemy soldiers alone!”

Rooibos spoke the truth. Atal Ramanujan had injected a staggering 60,000 soldiers to conquer Zolushka. Although they were poorly trained mobs with failing equipment, they could still dominate their enemy using sheer numbers. To top it all, Lee Gong-Myung was their commander-in-chief. Led by one of the greatest tacticians in Pangaea, the soldiers could fight to their maximum capabilities.

“Your Majesty, you have to trust Kang Chul-In!”

Rooibos urged Lily once again.

“He may be a cunning war-maniac, but I heard he is a man of his word.”

“T-That’s right! Chul-In oppa was the one who taught me Sumire’s feelings!”

“Yes, Your Majesty. That’s right. The Supreme King of the West is a power-hungry devil, but he is not a dishonorable man. So, let’s trust him and retreat! At this rate, our whole army may be wiped out!”

Now was the right time to retreat.

Any more delay and Lily’s soldiers would not make it out alive.

“O-Okay!”

Finally, Lily decided to call for a retreat.

All men, retreat! Hurry!

“Your Majesty, you should leave too! This place will soon be taken over by the enemy as well!”

“R-Right!”

Lily also decided to retreat away from the battlefield.

Chul-In oppa.

There was no reply.

Come help us! Quick!

The only person who could turn the table was Kang Chul-In, the Supreme King of the West, the most evil and powerful Lord of all.

***

“Who!?”

Kang Chul-In roared angrily the moment he returned to Valhalla.

“Who dares to interrupt my vacation!?”

A thundering voice.

His rage was truly horrifying.

D-Damn it! I shouldn’t have told him!

Kwak Jung struggled to not collapse to his knees.

Flick, flicker!

Kang Chul-In was getting more terrifying by the day.

That tremendous burst of mana!

Kwak Jung, who was quite a strong explorer himself, could barely continue to stand.

“Hurry up and tell me.”

“It’s… Atal Ramanujan.”

Suddenly, a vein popped up on Kang Chul-In’s forehead.

“That coward?”

In the past, that man had hidden behind Alex Rothschild and Aleister and had witnessed Kang Chul-In’s death.

In other words, he was one of the three Lords who had attacked him when Valhalla was getting stomped on.

“Yes. Atal Ramanujan has conquered Itaracia, located at the Chamonix mountains. He is causing havoc in that girl’s territory now.”

“Right, there was one last bastard left. How can I screw him up…? Just thinking about it already thrills me… hehe…!”

“I beg your pardon?”

“Nothing.”

“...”

“Go on with your report.”

“Ah, okay...”

Kwak Jung couldn’t comprehend Kang Chul-In’s words and remained puzzled.

“Ahem, anyways, since Atal Ramanujan has conquered Itaracia, I would say his Northern Expedition has been extremely successful. In fact, the reason why Atal Ramanujan couldn’t climb up the ranks despite a huge population was due to the southern region’s weather and harsh terrains. Now that he has taken over Itaracia, he will try to advance to the central region of Baldur.”

“Right.”
