Chapter 311 Good Day (1) To those who haven’t noticed, we’ve swapped the chapters to the regular individual unlock, with the unlock ranging from 6ATC to 9ATC per chapter.

Day one.

—Today, Challengers from the Russian branch succeeded in rescuing a group of survivors who remained in Moscow. The number of survivors is about 1,200…

Two.

—The Holy Power has been confirmed to be effective against the underground-type invaders. We have instructed the presence of more than a certain number of Saintrion priests be in each Ark…

Three.

—There has been a request for support from Levant Neutral due to the appearance of a giant beast. The arks that can afford it are urgently requested to send reinforcement…

Four.

—It has been found that killing the giant beast reduces the number of invaders in the area for a while.

—As of today, the Union has formed a hunting team made up of high rankers, and it is dedicated to only giant beasts…

—The Savior did it again. He prevented numerous casualties by killing the Leviathan, who was called the worst invader ever due to the natural disasters its presence caused.

The most intense time in Earth’s history continued. There was a lot of bloodshed and even more tears. Many had lost family, friends, or loved ones. However…

—For the first time after the incident, the World Challenger Federation succeeded in reclaiming a ground city.

With that, the preparation was over, and the spark of the counterattack lit the night.

—Currently, the Federation has stated that it will prioritize accommodating refugees who couldn’t enter the Ark by stationing its most elite defense forces.

It took a while after the situation broke out. But once again, the Federation returned aboveground and reclaimed their lost cities.

“Mom, mom…”

“Aaaaaaaaaargh!”

“Hold on! Get yourself together, this bastard!”

Even though their limbs were torn, their skin flayed, and some were scattered to the wind without leaving a trace.

“Get out of our land; you monster bastaaaaaaaards!”

To save even one more life, all those with powers united and devoted themselves. And this brutal and sublime scene appeared to become their hope.

—The phenomenon of refugees requesting enlistment is exploding worldwide.

—Most of them are challengers below the 5th floor, with low combat power, and they are asking the Federation to give them some strength.

None of them doubted. Even if it would be a long, long fight. Even if many died, and everything that humankind had built over the years collapsed. Even if they didn’t know how long it would take to rebuild.

“…”

That they would eventually make it

“Yoon-seok, please return to the Tower soon.”

It was the third day after their reclamation started. That’s what Ashton said on the day the news of the recapture of San Francisco, which plant-type invaders had occupied, was featured.

“What do you mean?”

“Isn’t there something for you to do there?”

“But if I leave now…”

“It’s going to be okay. I’ve decided to let King of Steel take charge of the giant beast task force.”

Ashton explained how he would fill the gaps without Yoon-seok even before asking. Lynn would take thousands of elite challengers and turn them into a strike force as they were now. The South Korean forces in Seheranbad would also be formally incorporated into the Federation, and the Earth would become more stable.

Even that wasn’t enough. Lee Su-yeon was calling Lavan and Sharon and their other colleagues to Earth. Of course, the empty seats wouldn’t disappear completely, but…

“Isn’t there something more important for you, Yoon-seok? Please entrust this place to us.”

Yoon-seok nodded gently. He wouldn’t have to do everything alone. This wasn’t that arena where he had no one to rely on…

“…I leave it to you.”

[Moving to the waiting room on the 24th Floor.]

Yoon-seok checked the timer first.

[1,141:51:48 until the next duel]

About 48 days remained. However, Yoon-seok wasn’t sure.

‘Is there time until then?’

To finish all preparations until the end of the next duel and head to the Queen battle with his surviving colleagues. This was originally Yoon-seok’s plan. But now, he wasn’t sure. The war between the Tower and the Queen had already begun. Five days had passed in dealing with the aftermath, and Ashton pushed him to do something more important.

—Well, what can we do? We’ll try our best to hang in.

The first administrator said that the current situation in the Tower wasn’t that dangerous, but he didn’t know how long that situation would last.

‘Maybe we have to go before the Duel starts.’

Yoon-seok assumed the worst as he did when he first entered the Tower. Of course, it was a little different from back then. At that time, he was just naturally pessimistic about his self-esteem that had been eroded to the fullest. Still, now his main factor was his responsibility, what he needed to protect.

“Let’s do it.”

Yoon-seok took a Ticket from his bag. He didn’t know when the deadline would be, but he had to do it before that was simple: recruit the remaining three positions and gather information about the Tower and the Queen. Unlike the former, the latter was quite daunting, but…

Yoon-seok decided his next destination without difficulty.

[You will return to Moorim.]

Leaving aside the thought that he would be more assured if Cheon-ma and the Demon Sect joined Earth, there was one more thing to investigate.

‘Heavenly Sword Cave. There may be some secret hidden there, just like the Space and Time Prison.’

It simply gave off the impression of being a strange place at the time, but now that he knew their secrets, he might see something a little different. Well, in the end, the Heavenly Buddha smashes everything, though.

Whoosh-!

The moment his vision returned, Yoon-seok felt like he was falling. Yoon-seok, who quickly manipulated his mana to stop in the air, looked around. A wide-spread Moorim-style city could be seen among the rugged mountain ranges that stretched on all sides.

It was none other than the headquarters of the Demon Sect.

‘But why is it so normal?’

Yoon-seok noticed something off a bit later. No matter how powerful the strong were, even if they said it was the headquarters of the Demon Sect, the city was very intact. The invaders that were pouring like heavy rain from the sky, whether in Seheranbad or Earth, were nowhere to be seen.

“…Huh?”

Yoon-seok unconsciously raised his head and looked up, and he stiffened in surprise. There was a reason the city was intact.

Whooooooooooooooosh-!

Should he say it was like an umbrella? A super-large space battleship, dozens of times the size of Lynn, was blocking the sky above the city. This was Cheon-ma purchased from the Time Store in the Spacetime World. Originally, she said she would ride it and wander around Moorim, but this situation broke out.

‘Is she there too?’

Yoon-seok turned around and climbed up to the roof of the space battleship. As expected, numerous Demon followers were formed up here to fight the invaders. He saw some familiar faces as he glanced around, such as the Sword Demon, Zheng Dayun, and the Leader of the Elimination Squad, Jin Muzhen. However, Cheon-ma wasn’t there.

‘Well, this is enough, so there’s no need for her to be here.’

10m, 100m, 1000m. Yoon-seok expanded his sense to find Cheon-ma. However, it was useless.

She found him first, without any sign of her approach.

“You said you had urgent business. Are you done with that?”

Yoon-seok turned around as he felt someone poke him playfully from behind. He couldn’t believe it at all.

‘…How strong is she?’

Yoon-seok gained b God of Martial Arts} and rose to 1st place. He was finally on the same line as Cheon-ma, whom he had longed for matching. However, was this the difference ranking couldn’t account for? There was already a new wall ahead of him.

“Why are you making such a silly face?”

“…It’s nothing.”

“Silly you. So, are you done with your urgent business?”

“Yes, for now.”

When Yoon-seok nodded, Cheon-ma put on a bright smile.

“Fufu. So, you came to see me as soon as it was over, huh?”

Yoon-seok wondered why it became like that, but… looking back, it wasn’t wrong. He indeed came to see Cheon-ma. No one knew more about the cave than her. If possible, he would like to visit there together and investigate.

“If you have spare time, can you come to Horizon Lake with me?”

“A boat ride, huh…?”

Cheon-ma slowly turned her head at Yoon-seok’s request. And, unlike usual, she mumbled in a small voice.

“…Well, a boat ride wouldn’t be bad either. It’s even a good day…”

“Yes? What do you mean it’s a good day?”

The skies were turning black, and monsters were pouring down. When he pointed this out, Cheon-ma startled and responded bluntly.

“…Ah, at least we wouldn’t be bored, would we?”

Maybe it’s because she’s a supreme being, so her point of view was different. Yoon-seok smiled, and Cheon-ma disappeared somewhere, saying she would get ready. He didn’t know what for, but…

‘Did she leave her sword? No, it was tied to her waist earlier.’

Cheon-ma’s appearance had changed greatly when she returned. First of all, instead of the black uniform she usually wore, she wore a light suit with red and green colored embroidery. She also wore necklaces, bracelets, and other accessories he had never seen before.

‘What is this? Are these new equipment?’

For a moment, he wondered if she had customized it, but he couldn’t feel any mana from the clothes she was wearing or her accessories.

“Hmmmm, that old man Demon Brain was meddling around when he found out we’re going on a boat ride. That’s annoying…”

Yoon-seok could tell when he saw Cheon-ma cooling her face with a fan engraved with a splendid gold pattern. After all, he wasn’t that tactless.

“…So what do you think?”

At first, he was a little confused by the sudden change. Then, Yoon-seok, who reaffirmed Cheon-ma’s appearance as a whole, answered honestly.

“It suits you very well.”

To be honest, it was unexpected that she looked so good in a fancy light outfit and not a uniform.

“…Is that so? Demon Brain says I look just like a girl in her twenties, but it’s not even funny to say that to me. Don’t you think so?

Of course, the question that followed had a fixed answer…

“No, anyone would have said so if they saw you now.”

Yoon-seok was sincere. Who the hell could look at this woman and think that she was the absolute supreme of the Demon Sect?

“Don’t flatt-. Anyway, let’s go before it’s too late. Yongyong!”

“Yes, Mother! Father! Get on my back! I’ll take you there!”

Yoon-seok and Cheon-ma rode Yongyong to the lake. Of course, in the meantime, they faced countless invaders, but…

Whoooosh-!

Every time she fanned herself, the invaders turned to dust and disappeared.

“It’s nice it’s quiet.”

“…”

“Why aren’t you answering?”

As expected, was that fan not for decoration but combat?
