Chapter 132 – Reveal (3)

Sun-woo, who trapped Korean summoners in the elevator, immediately met Branch Manager Schmidt, explained how he purified contamination, and received additional compensation from Summoner.

It was a not-so-large reward of about 200 points, but it was enough as compensation for personally visiting the association.

“Then the work to do from now on will be obtaining other dimension spirit beasts’ inner dans or Dragon Hearts.”

“You’ll also have to look for saintesses and priestesses.”

Though Yeonhwa was beside Sun-woo, she alone couldn’t handle all purification formations.

They still didn’t know if all other priestesses and saintesses could remove contamination.

Still, like inner dans, there was a need to secure as many as possible before enemies intercepted them.

“I’ll look into it as much as possible. It will be conveyed to Summoner too, so they’ll also find methods.”

If summoners stepped forward and Summoner gave orders through missions, they could respond sufficiently.

“You worked hard. I’ll ask for your continued support.”

The branch manager spoke with a bright expression, but Sun-woo was expressionless.

“I only performed missions. Now that the path with the Empire is open and we know how to make purification formations, I should be able to return to normal missions too.”

At Sun-woo’s words drawing a line indifferently, the branch manager made a troubled expression.

The branch manager was missing something because he had been cooperating well with Korea branch affairs, especially exiles’ work lately.

Decisively, Sun-woo didn’t belong to the Summoner Association.

That he was just working as a collaborator, freelancer.

Of course the branch manager didn’t know, but Sun-woo also needed to visit Dimension Beta, that is, the Empire again.

There was still unresolved work there.

The movement formation where the Blood Demon escaped wasn’t a dimension movement formation but a spatial movement formation.

The Blood Demon was still remaining in Dimension Beta.

However, not knowing where in Dimension Beta the Blood Demon was now, he couldn’t set aside all work and roam through enemy territory searching for the Blood Demon.

And Sun-woo had absolutely no intention of telling this story to the branch manager.

He would definitely go to the Empire again anyway through Korea branch or Summoner.

There was no need for Sun-woo to rush first and suffer losses unnecessarily.

“Then, I’ll get up first.”

Sun-woo quickly left the branch manager’s office before the branch manager could hold him back, and immediately went down to the 1st floor.

He was thinking of stopping by the coffee shop briefly before going home.

Both urgent matters and matters he had kept in mind were somewhat concluded.

He felt like having some leisurely time.

‘From the coffee shop, the outside will be visible well, right?’

There was no better place than that for watching the reporters camped at the main entrance.

Of course, Sun-woo couldn’t say he had no responsibility for reporters swarming to this place, but there was no need to worry about such things.

***

As Sun-woo expected, from the cafe next to the 1st floor lobby, the scene in front of the main entrance was clearly visible.

Numerous reporters and broadcast cameras set up positions and caused a commotion with heated coverage competition.

Anyone entering or exiting the building, now even delivery company employees were caught and talked to, and reporters trying to enter the building and security guards clashed everywhere.

Sun-woo watched that scene holding a cool americano.

‘Best cafe performance.’

However, Sun-woo, who had been looking out the window happily, soon frowned.

The three summoners Sun-woo had trapped in the elevator were entering the cafe.

“Really unlucky. Getting stuck in an elevator in such a new building.”

“Wasn’t it an earthquake? I definitely felt shaking.”

“But other people said they didn’t feel it.”

“Is there also an earthquake that shakes just the elevator? Even the door broke.”

“Be quiet. There are ordinary employees here too.”

The summoner who had spoken to Sun-woo stopped the two men chattering wildly while entering the coffee shop.

However, making the restraint pointless, the two men chattered for quite a while.

“Oh? We meet again.”

The summoner who had been quiet for a moment saw Sun-woo drinking coffee and approached shouting loudly.

People frowned and left one by one.

He was a quiet summoner at the elevator, but this side seemed to be his true nature.

‘Should I leave too?’

The way he approached swagger about gave a feeling blatantly exuding that he needed someone to vent at.

It seemed he wanted to relieve stress from being trapped in the elevator.

The summoner who had given worthless advice to Sun-woo didn’t restrain him this time either.

He also wasn’t a person much different.

However, the summoner who came all the way ultimately couldn’t pick a fight with Sun-woo.

“Sun-woo, I’ve been looking for you!”

When he stood in front of Sun-woo, this time Caroline came inside.

Caroline quickly approached in front of Sun-woo. And spoke to the summoner still standing in front of Sun-woo.

“Hello. Do you perhaps have something to say to Sun-woo?”

“No, well…”

“If it’s not urgent business, can I borrow Sun-woo for a bit?”

He hesitated for a moment then stepped back scratching his head.

The summoner returned to his party and Caroline also sat down and ordered coffee.

“I didn’t interrupt, right?”

“Well. It seems I interrupted them, but for me I’m grateful you saved me from annoyance.”

“Phew, the rift with summoners here seems deeper than expected. I thought I was treating them more reasonably than before, but the backlash is severe. The sentiment of summoners here isn’t easy to understand.”

“Oh dear, you must be having a hard time.”

When Sun-woo just blankly uttered impressions at Caroline’s complaint, she eventually let out a small sigh.

“Phew, doing it again. On top of that, they say you just escaped from the branch manager’s office earlier.”

“Well, I came out because all the talking was done.”

“I know Sun-woo’s personality well, but still please at least listen to what the branch manager says. He’s worried even now if he said something wrong.”

From Sun-woo’s position, words trying to sneakily bundle them together were quite irritating, but there was no reason to say such things to Caroline.

Sun-woo decided to just listen a bit as Caroline said.

Fortunately Caroline didn’t bring up that story anymore.

She talked about company matters mixed with complaints then turned her body to look out the window.

“I wonder until when those people will keep doing that.”

Unlike Sun-woo watching fire across the river, Caroline was quite uncomfortable with reporters camped in front of the company.

Since her face was already known as an executive of the company, it was difficult to go outside.

“If the glass were glass that makes the inside visible from outside, reporters would have swarmed outside the window like a swarm.”

Caroline sighed while tapping the glass wall with her hand.

Then, Sun-woo who was looking out the window together answered.

“It seems several times more reporters than now will swarm.”

Sun-woo’s hand pointed behind the reporters.

Honk honk!

Where his hand pointed, a huge container truck was running toward the Cleanearth building’s main entrance.

The truck had already left the roadway and was entering the plaza in front of the Cleanearth building.

People strolling in the park began screaming and scattering at the truck’s appearance, and reporters positioned at the main entrance also turned around one by one.

“Surely not terrorism in Korea?”

When Caroline stood up in surprise gripping the glass wall, Sun-woo shouted from behind.

“Carol! Remove the glass wall!”

Caroline reflexively put her hand on the glass wall at Sun-woo’s words then poured out mental power.

Crack!

Light came from Caroline’s hand, and soon after, the glass wall filling one side of the cafe turned to powder.

At that moment, Sun-woo drew his sword from his phone and swung it forward.

Swoosh!

One red line leaped out from Sun-woo’s sword.

That line passed through the wall where the glass window disappeared, then passed by reporters’ sides and struck the front wheel of the running truck.

Bang! Screech!

The tire wasn’t one that could endure sword energy. The wheel didn’t just burst but shattered.

The truck lost one wheel and tilted greatly to the side.

Thud! Scraaaape!

Eventually the truck toppled sideways, smashing the park floor and sliding down toward the reporters.

Reporters turned pale seeing the truck sliding toward them and ran away, but fortunately the truck stopped before covering the reporters.

Sun-woo moved the ground to catch the truck.

Among reporters all staring blankly at the truck, some fearless reporters sneakily approached the truck.

The toppled container truck was a form without special company marks, and they couldn’t tell if the driver was alive or dead.

Sun-woo and Caroline also moved toward the truck passing the disappeared glass wall.

Behind them followed Korean summoners who had been at other tables.

Their steps were extremely cautious unlike before.

Unlike ordinary people, they knew Sun-woo was the person who stopped the truck.

Until then they had implicitly looked down on Sun-woo who didn’t use modern weapons.

But the technique they just saw wasn’t envious of modern weapons.

Their steps became cautious thinking they seemed to have teased wrongly.

The summoners glanced at Caroline with surprised expressions once more while crossing over the disappeared glass wall.

They learned for the first time that Caroline’s ability was this level.

“This isn’t good.”

Sun-woo moving toward the toppled truck raised his speed at the sensation felt from the truck.

Thud! Thud!

But before Sun-woo arrived at the truck, along with sounds of hitting walls from inside the container, the entire container shook.

It was the moment reporters approaching the truck stopped in place startled.

Bang!

With a tremendous sound, the container entrance burst open.

Grrrowl!

From inside the open door, bull-sized brown dogs walked out drooling at their mouths.

The dogs filled with muscles all over their bodies looked like pit bulls famous as vicious dogs in appearance but were several times larger.

The dogs that stepped outside the door looked around then began running toward people nearby, and people scattered in all directions screaming.

“Damn!”

Summoners who saw the giant dogs frowned and summoned weapons. All the dogs had turbid colors.

They were contaminated animals.

However, when they were about to pull the trigger, there was someone who stopped them.

“Stop! You can’t shoot guns here!”

Caroline stood blocking in front of them.

“Your use of firearms is a secret. If you get caught it’s over!”

Korea was a gun prohibition country.

Until now they used them after controlling all surroundings, but now at this place they couldn’t tell how many cameras broadcasting in real time were rolling.

“But people are in danger!”

“There’s someone to block them.”

At Caroline’s words, summoners who looked ahead had to return their weapons with mouths hanging open.

They saw contaminated dogs that burst out breaking the container get sliced instantly without running very far.

All was Sun-woo’s handiwork.

While summoners were surprised and Caroline felt proud as if it were her own work.

Sun-woo was letting out a low groan looking at cameras directed at him.

“This isn’t good.”

The ninja warrior who was active in Prague appeared in Korea this time.
