I upgrade alone

The guy who can't hide his excitement more than anyone in the world.

Wu Zhenzhe.

Among the subordinates who embraced each other and cheered happily, his gaze was always fixed on the screen.

Wu Zhenzhe's eyes twitched when he found something in the picture.

'Could it be...?'

He hurriedly took out his mobile phone, and with trembling hands, he took out the video stored in it and played it.

It's a video I've watched many times.

When Gao Jianli, the former chairman of the association, was killed, the video was captured by the security camera in the chairman's room of the association.

A man who hadn't been seen for a while appeared temporarily on the blurry camera video, and it was difficult to easily identify his face.

Thinking back now, does it happen to be exactly like the monster that Seong Jin-Woo Hunter defeated just now?

Even the scene of the frozen ground melting rapidly is the same.

'In this case...…!'

Only then did Oh Jin-cheol understand what kind of enemy Seong Jin-Woo was fighting against.

That's...the person who killed Chairman Gao Jianli.

Wu Zhenzhe remembered the conversation with Cheng Xiaoyu when he received the obituary of Chairman Gao Jianli, and his whole body trembled.

'thank you.Thank you for keeping the chairman's end. '

'I'll kill that guy. '

'what?'

'I will definitely kill the Warcraft that killed the president of the association.So there is no rush to say thank you when the time comes. '

Seong Jin-Woo Hunter did not forget the promise at that time.

Warcraft is dead.

Died at the hands of Hunter Seong Jin-Woo.

The tip of Wu Zhenzhe's nose was red, and after raising his tear-filled eyes, he looked at the broadcast screen again.

The camera zoomed in on Seong Jin-Woo Hunter, who looked a bit tired for some reason.

He kind of understood the meaning of that expression.

A choking emotion welled up from the depths of his heart.

Now...Chairman Gao Jianli can leave with peace of mind...

Recalling the former president of the association he respected, Wu Zhenzhe couldn't bear it anymore.

'...Thank you, Seong Jin-Woo Hunter'

***

Unlocking the spirit body transformation, the cold king who returned to the human form gradually turned into dust of ashes.

Former chairman Gao Jianli's share plus his own share.

All debts owed were paid off.

Cheng Jin-Woo looked coldly at the Frost King who was gradually disappearing, and then turned around.

After waiting in the distance for the punishment of the Frost King to end, the two soldiers came to Seong Jin-Woo's side.

"..."

Even though he regained his original power, Jagrit still maintained his usual silence, saluting the monarch with courtesy and thoughtfulness.

Unlike this one, Bell used his whole body to express his joy to see his master again.

"King, ah, ah, ah!"

Ha ha.

Tears welled up in Bell's large eyes.

After patting Bell's shoulder twice in a comforting manner, Cheng Jin-Woo looked around.

One person left.

The man in the tattered robe disappeared at some point.

"Who was that man just now?"

To Cheng Jin-Woo's question, Yegrit answered instead of Bell who was busy getting excited.

"That is the person who will protect you even to the death when you lose consciousness, king."

Cheng Jin-Woo was startled when he heard Yegrid's rough voice for the first time, but the shock was only temporary.

Cheng Jin-Woo showed a surprised look.

"He guarded me?"

"Yes."

Unlike Bell, Yegrit seems to be unfamiliar with human language, and often speaks in a mixed world language called 'Warcraft language.

But this is no problem for forming a dialogue.

So now, the only thing I don't understand is one thing...

Why would a man whom he had never met in his life protect himself?

Cheng Jin-Woo was having a question-and-answer session with Yegrit in his proficient mixed-world language, but suddenly, he found something and walked towards the distance without saying a word.

Something dropped there.

'This is......?'

After picking up that thing, Cheng Jin-Woo's heart rippled.

***

After returning to the half-collapsed building where only the outer wall remained, the man slumped on the ground with a "boom".

Slowly he took off the hood of his robe.

What appeared was a man's face who seemed to have never taken care of himself, with messy hair and a beard so thick that it covered his entire face.

Cheng Rihan leaned against the wall and panted heavily.

"Hoo ah ah ah ah ah"

Then, he raised his unconscious left hand.

as predicted.

The left hand, which had turned dead gray, was slowly turning into dust from the fingertips.

This is the consequence of using a human body to carry the power of a god.

But even in the extreme pain now, his face still has a satisfied expression.

"This is enough......"

He used that power to hold onto Seong Jin-Woo.

Cheng Jin-Woo, who has completely inherited the power of the Shadow King, is of great help to mankind just by being there.

So, that's enough.

After removing his eyes from the fading fingertips, Cheng Rihan weakly leaned his head against the wall and closed his eyes.

The rulers entrusted their power to him, asking him to stop the Shadow King.

For Cheng Rihan, who was trapped in the interdimensional gap because the portal disappeared, he had no choice.

So he could only accept the ruler's proposal.

Instead of the rulers, Cheng Rihan, as their envoy, returned to the earth with a major mission on his shoulders.

But... Cheng Rihan couldn't complete his mission.

Even though he knew that the most dangerous disaster for human beings would happen to Seong Jin-Woo in the future, but... how could parents kill their own children?

Apart from watching Cheng Jin-Woo silently from a distance, he couldn't do anything else.

When he was procrastinating for time like this, the opinions of the rulers who originally only focused on preventing the Shadow King from completely ruling began to diverge.

then finally a

The brightest shard of radiance gave him new orders.

"Protect the Shadow King."

If they are to stop the kings' plan, they need to get the shadow king with full power.

Only the Shadow King can hold back the Dragon King and the Legion of Doom who arrived on Earth earlier than his own soldiers.

They are well aware of this.

And "protecting him" was a huge gamble they made without knowing whether the Shadow King would be on the human side or the king's side.

And the result just came out.

Seong Jin-Woo decided to side with humans, and the Shadow King agreed with this choice.

The reborn Shadow King is Seong Jin-Woo himself.

It is worth risking your life to protect him desperately.

"..."

Although I couldn't say hello to my son who I met after ten years...It's a pity that I left like this...

But no one has the right to take parents away from a child twice.

Even if it's the parents themselves.

So, quietly disappearing like this is for Seong Jin-Woo...

Cheng Rihan looked down at himself who was gradually turning into ashes, so comforting.
