Chapter 256 (2/2)

She is a level S Lifer.

If Cha Jun Sung had been a normal human, the only difference between Violet and himself is 1 battlesuit combination. The boundaries between male and female bodies are meaningless due to body modifications.

There are definite boundaries until stages 5 and 6.

But after that, bodies of both men and women become strengthened to the highest level.

Cha Jun Sung is level 9.

He can hide the truth inside his battlesuit and human shell, but this doesn’t hide his physical ability.

“Eek! How! It’s just 1 battlesuit combination!”

Violet yells as she sees Cha Jun Sung avoid her attacks.

Weapon Master and Chamma Sword sparred with him as well.

They were all similar.

They couldn’t use their strength against Cha Jun Sung.

Weapon Master and Chamma Sword looked similar to Violet when they fought him.

They tried going at him two-to-one and three-to-one out of obstinacy. It hurt their pride, but they wanted to see the extent of Cha Jun Sung’s abilities.

The results were surprising. Two-to-one was similar, and they needed to be three against one to win. Cha Jun Sung is doing two or three level S Lifers’ worth.

The three of them don’t know that he is a mutant.

The only difference is 1 battlesuit combination. Though their combinations fall short, this is too much.

They can’t understand it, but they accept the results.

Strategist was outraged. If Cha Jun Sung hadn’t been disqualified from entering missions, they would have completed level S missions with him in the lead.

Cha Jun Sung hadn’t expected his disqualification to go for 5 years either.

He is fighting with Violet not in a training room, but in a level C mission. He can enter until level B, so they sparred as practice.

As long as it isn’t instant death, they can live even if their arms and legs get cut off.

That is why they are bolder.

‘Jab and retreat, jab and retreat. Now.’

Cha Jun Sung took one step forward when Violet pulled her spear back, and grabbed the spear with one hand.

His body follows the pulling strength. He followed without resisting.

Cha Jun Sung suddenly ended up in Violet’s embrace and hit her chest hard with his shoulder.

Bang!

Violet goes flying and rolls on the ground.

Cha Jun Sung is holding her spear.

Not only is there a difference in ability, she also had her weapon taken away.

“I – I lost.”

“Hah!”

Cha Jun Sung lets out a bright laugh at Violet’s declaration of defeat. Violet in a rage looks cute to him.

Cha Jun Sung puts Hades away. He tossed the spear to Violet, who was getting up.

They are both perfectly fine other than slight damages to their battlesuits and energy consumption.

It was a spar.

It is better to end it at an appropriate line.

“To think that you can only watch when you have abilities like this…”

“Haha. I was really mad at first, but I’ve just accepted it.”

Jigneon called Cha Jun Sung not long after his fight with Gabenu. It was to formally notify him of Life Mission’s decision.

It was different from his encounter with Gabenu.

It wasn’t in the middle of a mission, and it had been discussed with the supervisors. They could have a conversation because they had plenty of time.

Jigneon explained in detail why they needed to block his entry. He had been angry even after hearing that explanation.

It was as if he had suffered all kinds of troubles to climb a mountain, but was being told to go back with the peak right in front of him.

But what could he do?

The decision to disqualify him had been unanimous.

Though Cha Jun Sung is special, he is just one Lifer.

He can’t fight over Life Mission with the supervisors who created it.

‘I’m sure they have something in mind.’

If they don’t want him near missions, they could have just completely taken away his qualifications as a Lifer.

But they hadn’t done that.

Cha Jun Sung thought that he had been left as insurance in Life Mission for anything that might happen.

They are scientists before they are supervisors. Scientists can’t discard possibility, though they might pretend to.

“Living like this isn’t so bad. It’s more comfortable too.”

He hid his true feelings and gave a formal answer.

Liberated from missions by force.

He just lazed around in a peaceful life.

The most he did was to warm up in lower level missions.

But Cha Jun Sung wasn’t satisfied with this life. He is a being that humans would call a devil or a monster in both appearance and ability. But this unique being is living among ordinary humans in a human shell. It feels as though he is wearing a mask.

It is like a tiger pretending to be a dog among dogs.

“You topped all the records on your own. Why now when all you had left was level S!”

Violet didn’t finish her thought.

Cha Jun Sung didn’t ask either. He knows what she is trying to say. What can’t be done can’t be helped. He needs to give in.

“But didn’t you say that you have something to tell me?”

“Oh! Right.”

Violet didn’t come to him to spar.

She had urgent business. Very important business.

She had just forgotten because they ended up in a spar.

“Help us explore a mission area.”
