Chapter 131: Ring of a Dimensional Sovereign (2)

The shadows around Kang-jun bowed toward him. Everyone had a very courteous attitude.

“Who are you?”

One of the shadows stepped forward after hearing Kang-jun’s question.

“We don’t know who we are. We just came to let you know that you are now out of our control.”

“Out of your control? What do you mean?”

“You have reached a high position that is beyond our abilities. No matter what you do, we can’t punish or discipline you. In other words, you are no longer bound by the rules of Hwanmong.”

“……!”

Kang-jun doubted his ears at this moment. He had been expecting this someday, but that day had finally come.

Escape from the rules of Hwanmong!

The meaning of it was enormous.

There were no penalties, so he no longer needed to perform the sovereign missions.

It didn’t matter what he did as a sovereign since no one could get involved.

Of course, all his abilities remained intact.

Kang-jun asked just to check once more,

“Does that mean I don’t have to perform the missions anymore?”

The shadow shook his head.

“That’s not it. This area hasn’t changed. Your missions will continue until you reach the 100th mission. It just means that we won’t be able to do anything if you fail the mission.”

That was what the shadow meant. However, Kang-jun didn’t mind that he had to keep doing the missions.

No, this was better.

He would be able to use the missions to level up and receive compensation.

In the meantime, they were forced quests but Kang-jun now had the freedom to do the quests when he wanted.

Kang-jun asked suddenly,

“Then are you the one who tested me after I entered the world of the anomalous phoenix?”

The shadow tilted its head to one side.

“We didn’t test you. Once you reach a level that we can no longer control, the battlefield test will appear.”

The shadows acknowledged that the battlefield was an illusion and test produced by them.

Then who made the first test where he had returned to the life of person living in a goshiwon?

The shadow said,

“Now, we will present a special token to you. It proves that you have transcended the rules of Hwanmong and that you are entitled to deal with us at any time.”

The moment his words ended.

[The sovereign token no longer has any effect on you, a sovereign who has transcended the rules of Hwanmong.

[The Demonic Dragon’s Ring is unequipped.]

[The Wyvern Ring is unequipped.]

[The Cloak of the Wind is unequipped.]

[The Earrings of Valor is unequipped.]

[The Necklace of Wisdom is unequipped.]

[Your strength has decreased by 10.]

[Your agility has decreased by 10.]

[Your charisma has decreased by 3.]

All the sovereign tokens were automatically removed and the stats raised by them decreased.

They didn’t disappear but entered his inventory. The exception was the Demonic Dragon’s Ring that vanished.

Then one of the shadows handed a treasure box to Kang-jun.

“Take this. This contains the badge of transcendence that is bound to you.”

Kang-jun took the box and opened it.

At the moment, a ring that was shining brilliantly showed up in front of Kang-jun.

Dimensional Sovereign Ring

-Rating: Transcendent

-This is the sign of a dimensional sovereign that can only be attached to the sovereign who transcends the rules of Hwanmong.

-Strength +100, Agility +100, Intelligence +100

-Good luck +10, Charisma +20.

-Can use the power of the sovereign to pull the desired subject from the constraints of a household.

’Oh! This is?’

Kang-jun had been upset by his stats falling after the sovereign tokens were removed.

Strength or agility didn’t matter, but the fall in charisma from losing the Demonic Dragon’s Ring was the biggest blow.

However, that regret completely disappeared once he saw the Dimensional Sovereign Ring.

’I didn’t know there were transcendent grade items.’

An item higher ranked than myth grade!

Just putting it on increased his strength, agility and intelligence by 100 points.

Right now, stats didn’t mean a lot, but he couldn’t help feeling good.

However, the truly great things were his good luck and charisma.

Good luck +10 and charisma +20.

Compared to this, the Demonic Dragon’s Ring was like the lowest grade japtem.

Moreover, the power of a dimensional sovereign!

Kang-jun was now able to release anyone’s bonds. Kang-jun could make anyone he wanted become his household member, even if they already belonged to someone else.

’Shall I put the ring on?’

Kang-jun immediately placed the Dimensional Sovereign Ring on his left hand.

Hwaaack!

At that moment, a radiant light emerged from Kang-jun’s body.

Then a message appeared.

[The Dimensional Sovereign Ring will belong to you permanently.]

[Your war ability has increased to the transcendent level.]

[Reaching transcendent warfare has increased charisma by 10.]

[Reaching transcendent warfare has increased good luck by 3.]

The moment he put on the ring, his war ability rose from supreme to transcendent.

This was accompanied by a rise in charisma and good luck!

That wasn’t the end.

[Your level will rise to suit your war ability, which is at the transcendent level.]

[Your level has increased by 65.]

Lv.200 (Exp 00.00%)

[War] Transcendent

Health: 99070/99070

Dimension force 96850/96850

Strength: 204 (+100)

Agility: 205 (+100)

Intelligence: 198 (+100)

Good Luck: 16 (+13)

Charisma: 42 (+21)

Level 200! A huge level up!

He didn’t think that it was meaningless to level up anymore.

His level rose by 65 at once, so he could feel that his combat power had increased.

It wasn’t the same as strengthening his wings by one stage, but it was approximately half a stage?

He only had a question about one thing.

’In fact, I wasn’t transcendent yet, so why did I suddenly become transcendent?’

Kang-jun was well aware that he was far from reaching the state of transcendence.

He knew it better than anyone else.

No matter how he thought about it, there was a gap between his current status and the realm of transcendence.

’Maybe it is a misunderstanding.’

However. that wasn’t possible. He had already worn the Dimensional Sovereign Ring and raised his level.

’Anyway, it is a relief.’

He was relieved because he no longer had to fear the rules of Hwanmong.

Moreover, wondering about how to live in the future wasn’t a big deal. He had become a free existence in the dimensional system, so it didn’t matter what he did.

Then one of the shadows said,

“Now, one of us will reside at your headquarters, so contact us at any time if you want to make a deal.”

“A deal?”

“You can make deals with us regarding things that belong to Hwanmong. Just look for us if you want to find out more details.”

After that, the shadows bowed to Kang-jun and faded away. The surrounding space started to distort.

The world that was revealed was a beautiful space.

There was clear, cool air with a blue sky.

There were all types of vapours as well as…

Fruit trees glowing with a mysterious light.

’Where is this?’

Fortunately, he noticed mysterious faces.

They were located next to a large rock under the shade of a huge tree.

There was a man and woman holding Anomaloria Golden Scale Insects in their hands.

They were still holding the Anomaloria Golden Scale Insects but were surprised to see Kang-jun.

The young man said,

“Did you pass the dimensional exam? You couldn’t have come here if you hadn’t passed the test. It had been ambiguous when I first saw you.”

Then the woman with black hair said,

“It is great. Another transcendent beside us is born in Pavaria Station.”

Kang-jun was inwardly amazed by their words.

’Transcendent?’

The birth of another transcendent besides them.

Then their identities?

Kang-jun asked them immediately.

“Are you the Top Dragon Shakan and Top Demon King Keljark, the transcendents of Pavaria Station?”

The red-haired man nodded with a frown.

“Yes,. I am Shakan.”

The black-haired woman also nodded.

“As you said, I am Keljark.”

Kang-jun’s eyes widened. It really was them.

’They are both at war but it doesn’t seem like it.’

Rather than fighting, Shakan and Keljark seemed just like friends to Kang-jun.

’But are they really transcendent?’

Kang-jun could sense their power through Will of the Dimension.

Both of them were very strong, but they seemed far from Kang-jun’s idea of transcendence.

They seemed just like Kang-jun. No, didn’t it make sense if they were like him?

’If they are transcendent, then I am transcendent.’

Kang-jun had been thinking too highly of the realm of transcendence.

Kang-jun didn’t acknowledge it but he had in fact received the status of transcendence.

If not, the shadows that controlled the rules of Hwanmong wouldn’t have given Kang-jun the Dimensional Sovereign Ring.

Therefore, Kang-jun decided to admit it to himself.

He was already transcendent.

’Then what have I been training in?’

Kang-jun thought that was the true state of transcendence.

Compared to that, his current level was like a young child.

He was sure of that.

However, he decided to leave these concerns for later.

Right now, his priority was to tame the anomalous phoenix.

Suuk.

Kang-jun pulled out the Anomaloria Golden Scale Insect.

Hwaaack!

A gorgeous golden insect!

Shakan and Keljark frowned as they glimpsed it.

They looked at Kang-jun with disgruntled expressions.

“I said to leave it to the anomalous phoenix but it can’t be helped. Right now, you are making a very big mistake.”

“A mistake?”

“Of course. Haven’t you figured it out?”

Shakan said with a meaningful smile,

“I just remembered who you are. Sovereign Lucan from Earth Hwanmong who entered my camp a little while ago. Radius sent me an image of your appearance.”

Kang-jun nodded.

“You seem to know a lot. Your words are right. I am Sovereign Lucan.”

Shakan sneered.

“Lucan! Listen carefully. The anomalous phoenix might choose you but what happens afterward is entirely your responsibility.”

“What does that mean?”

“If the anomalous phoenix chooses your golden insect, I will kill you and the anomalous phoenix.”

“……!”

While Kang-jun was astonished by those words, Keljark spoke,

“Lucan? Isn’t he the one who left Earth Hwanmong to try and kill Colladikus?”

Keljark’s eyes flashed as she gazed at Kang-jun.

“My intentions are the same as Shakan’s. In other words, this isn’t a place for someone like you to interfere. If you don’t know your place and continue to persist stubbornly, then you will disappear forever from Pavaria Station.”

The two transcendent beings were threatening him. Kang-jun was silent for a moment before opening his mouth.

“Then I’ll tell you my intentions. If the anomalous phoenix chooses your golden insect instead of mine…”

A deep light gleamed in Kang-jun’s eyes.

“I will kill both of you and the anomalous phoenix.”
