“Just.. Just what’s happening here?”

Why in the world did it turn out like this?

Perutius despaired at the sight of thousands of Chaos players rushing at him.

‘Did they follow Yoo Gil-dong’s order? Did he survive and run away to join the Black Dragon King?’

Just what is the problem? No, this wouldn’t have happened in the first place if it weren’t for the existence of Yoo Seodam.

“Die, you hypocrite!”

“Is it good playing a hero?”

A black thunderbolt hurled towards him, a rock rolled and tried to crush Perutius’ head. A whip of flames slithered and burned the ground and the ground pitted with thorns made of steel all over it.

Perutius and his party endured every barrage of attack.

Their level was incomparable to the Chaos players who had no choice but to live in hiding.

All of his companions were armed with all kinds of legendary equipment on their body, and their weapons were also at least at +7 Hero-grade or higher. In addition, Perutius’s level had risen sharply to 175 and his weapon was the one and only +11 Legendary-grade Holy sword in existence, making him an absurdly strong player.

Even after all those specs, ‘Protagonist correction’ was still in effect.

“Die!!!! I’ll take your-Keuk”

The moment when an assassin player tried to slit Perutius’s neck at an unbelievably perfect timing, he was killed by an arrow flying from the side.

“You guys! You can beat me in a battle of stren-ugh?! What’s this rat doing in my arm!!!”

The moment a player who invested his stats on strength tried to crush him with strength, a rat fell on his hand out of nowhere.

“Die! Lunatic Blade Machine-arrgghhh!!!”

Rustle… Boom!!

A Chaos player who tried to unleash a special move after gathering energy for the last 30 minutes or so, stumbled on a rock and killed himself along with his allies.

That’s right.

Perutius was extremely lucky, it was as if he took the luck of anyone around him.

However, no matter how lucky he was, he had too many opponents.

No matter how strong Perutius and his party was, it was impossible for them to deal with thousands of people.

“Kuughh!! Braveheart! You are the only one who needs to survive..!”

“Ugh! I’m sorry, Braveheart…”

“I’m sorry, warrior. I can’t hold on any more…”

One by one, all his companions fell.

-Braveheart…

Perutius kept cutting, stabbing, smashing and killing.

However, when he killed one, another 2 players would rush towards him and when he killed three, five more Chaos players would charge towards him.

-Pouring out my last strength!

“Ahhhhhhhhh…!!”

[Protagonist Perutius activates the item skill ‘Liat’s Protection’.]

Kuung…!!

A curtain of light spread out with Perutius as the center. In an instant, the ground sunk and every player who touched the light instantly perished.

However, more than thousands of Chaos players were still alive and angry.

It was a terrible fight.

On the battlefield, where the world seemed to be slowing down, Perutius had to fight alone.

‘Right… I am a hero.’

A hero chosen by the holy sword of the light, Liat.

He had only trained for a month but had become stronger than a swordsman who had trained for 10 years.

He could find what others had been looking for all their life in just one day.

When someone tried to get what they wanted by working to the bones, he could get it all at once by casually doing it.

He could easily solve something that no one could do.

He didn’t have to lift a finger. No, he had not made any effort even before acquiring the ‘Holy Sword’. In the first place, he was destined to become a Braveheart, so he didn’t have to do anything.

‘Yes, I am a Braveheart.’

Even in such a crisis, he believed it was only a tribulation for a Braveheart like him. If so, it was something he could overcome ‘as usual’.

“….Liat! Let’s do ‘that’!”

-Br…Braveheart?

“I will try to enchant the item, and kill all those pitiful Chaos players here!”

-Wait! I’m a holy sword made for the purpose of killing ‘Black Dragon King’! I can’t show my full power when fighting against players like yourself!

“It’s okay!”

Perutius clenched his teeth and said to Liat.

“We can do it, because I’m a Braveheart!”

The luck that came to him in time of ‘crisis’ involved a large amount of probability.

But. Right now, the probability was not enough.

This crisis he faced right now was not caused by the ‘Black Dragon King’, so the probability was extremely insufficient. And in his fierce struggle so far, he had consumed too much probability.

When he faced off against Black Dragon King’s subordinate in one-on-one fight, he didn’t consume too much probability. So, all probability that he gained would be converted into luck which made his enchantment success rate increase to 100%.

But not now.

[Enhancement success rate: 19.71%]

Perutius’ enchantment success rate had fallen to this much.

‘It’s still ridiculously high.”

Even if it was not 100%, it was still a crazy number because it is close to 20%. That was the result of absorbing all the possibilities around this place!

‘And that also means that there is a 20% chance that I would lose.’

Yoo Seodam couldn’t let it happen. He pulled out the mega-shooter from his inventory.

It was the weapon that helped him in assassinating key figures all around Pleidin. Also, because of its loud noise, Yoo Seodam got another nickname for him, which is ‘Thunder Assassin’.

He slowly loaded a sniper bullet into the mega-shooter.

It wasn’t just an ordinary bullet. It was a Mana-enchanted bullet. Using this very bullet, it was possible to kill a D to C rank superhuman with just one shot, and inflict a fatal wound to B to A rank superhuman.

And this time, a large amount of Mana had been poured into the bullet to further enhance its capability.

Had it been in a normal situation, the flower spirit might have mocked him by saying ‘Witch is an idiot~’. Because, if one raised their Mana while trying to snipe a S-rank superhuman, the incoming attack would be easily detected, thus making it easy to avoid.

When that happens, the advantage of being a sniper disappears.

But what if the target is defenseless?

What if the attack can never be avoided?

“Believe in me, who believes in you! Liat!”

-Br….braveheart!

Finally, Perutius let out a ferocious roar.

“Item enchantment!”

[Protagonist Perutius uses ‘Enhance Item (-)’ skill.]

[The probability of the event is gathering.]

When his cries resounded all over the world, a brilliant beam of light descended on his Holy sword, Liat!

Taang!!

A powerful bullet that would kill even the strongest superhuman was fired at Perutius’s head.

[·….A crisis arises for the protagonist Perutius!]

[The protagonist Perutius converted all the available probability into good luck!]

Wooon!!!!

Ku gu gu gu gu…!!

That moment,

The space twisted, wind rages, the ground was dug, and the world shook, and the bullet failed to reach Perutius and disappeared farther away.

The world itself moved for his sake!

“…..Heoeok!”

For a moment, Perutius was relieved that he’s still alive, but not for too long.

-Br…Braveheart…. I don’t feel so good. (T/N Peterr?!?!)

Suddenly, Holy sword Liat began to scream.

“Li…Liat! Why is it all of a sudden!”

-Braveheart! Cancel the enchantment right away… Oh, ah! Braveheart! Nooo..o..o…

[Item enhancement failed!]

Fwoosh!

“…huh?”

Perutius came to his senses and realized that the Holy sword Liat, which he held in both hands just a moment ago, had disappeared.

“What…?”

Perutius looked down with empty eyes.

“Liat, Liat? Liat, answer me. This, this… This can’t be…”

He was Braveheart. And, he had never failed in item enchantment so far. When faced with a crisis, he was always able to overcome adversity by unlocking Liat’s hidden power.

Why did it fail…?

Unable to cope with harsh reality, Perutius stumbled to his knees.

“…Aracelli was right. This was Yoo seodam’s plans all along.”

Out of nowhere, someone said so to him.

“What do you think? That’s the result of ignoring those who trained hard and only believing in your luck.”

Perutius did not notice that it was the voice of Pasios. However, it was good for Pasios.

“……I will kill them all.”

Slowly rising from his knees, Perutius pulled out another weapon from his inventory. The white sword with red letters carved on its surface was only a hero-grade weapon, but he thought it didn’t matter as long as it could cut down the enemy.

“Yoo Seodam, that guy…. I will kill him!!!”

“Are you sure you have any time for that?”

Passios smiled as he said, and disappeared right after.

Soon Perutius realized what it meant.

Du Du Du Du Du Du…!!

From a distance, the sound of tens of thousands of troops advancing rang out.

It wasn’t just Perutius who was taken aback, the Chaos players also felt the same.

“What…?”

“What, what is that!”

“It’s the elite cavalry of the Marodon Empire!”

“Damn it. Why now!!”

Raising the white flag of the Marodon Empire, the elite troops began to advance!

They didn’t know how they came so quickly.

They didn’t even know how they could come at this timing and why.

But the most important thing was one.

“Look at those Chaos players! Look at Perutius, who was praised as a Braveheart!”

The fact was that the Princess came here to hunt players!

“Can we still call them heroes even after they join hands with the Black Dragon King?”

“Well, that’s a misunderstanding! I did not join hands with the Black Dragon King…!”

Yes, Perutius came to Yormun fortress because he heard that it was taken by the Black Dragon King’s army, so he could say that he was an ally of the Empire.

However, the princess had already decided that Perutius needed to be killed, so it was a useless excuse.

Chaos players also shouted that the princess treatment was unfair.

“Don’t talk nonsense! We haven’t even seen the Black Dragon King!”

“Yeah! We’re just gathered here because we need to talk with Yoo Seodam!”

“There is no King of Black Dragon here…!”

However, when they were busy making excuses, Yoo Seodam had already put the next plan in motion. He woke up the Black Dragon King’s subordinates who were sleeping in the basement of Yormun Citadel, to forcefully trigger the ‘episode’.

Kuohoh…!!

A monster resembling a black gorilla appeared and spewed black magic all over the place.

And it was enough to anger the imperial army.

“See that! That’s the ugly truth of Chaos players! However, there is nothing to be scared of! Because I, Ryu Hye-ian and Marodon are with you! Fight against it! Kill all the false heroes who sold their souls to the Black Dragon King! We have never been defeated in the fight against the Black Dragon King!”

It was a situation filled with confusion.

With Chaos players fighting each other, a giant monster that emerged from the destroyed fortress, the imperial army surrounding it, and Perutius who stood at the middle of all, it was a total mess.

“Hahaha……”

Imperial Army and Chaos players.

Seeing all of them rushing to kill him, Perutius let go of his sword and bowed his head.

[You’ve successfully hunted a level 175 protagonist.]

Eventually, the one who was once called a Braveheart was trampled by tens of thousands of people and disappeared without even leaving a trace.

The war didn’t last long.

Chaos players were also completely wiped out by the imperial forces shortly afterward, and the Black Dragon King’s subordinate could not withstand the attack from the imperial army.

“Wow ahhhhhh!!”

“We wiped the player!”

“We defeated Black Dragon King’s subordinate!”

“Hurray, Her Majesty!”

“Hurray!”

While everyone was celebrating their victory.

‘Professor, where is the professor?’

Aracelli ran in hurry under the protection of the imperial army.

The other day, she had exhausted all her Mana, so it was impossible for her to go directly to the battlefield. She had no choice but to stay behind.

But now, the war was finally over, and the one blessed with ‘the source of the world’ had also died.

In the end, just like in another world, Her professor, Yoo Seodam saved the world again.

‘By the way…… No one knows.’

Everyone praises the princess Ryu Hye-ian and the sorcerer Redurun.

But they weren’t the real people to be praised,it was Yoo Seodam.

“Heo-eok, cough! Cough!”

Her young body started to feel heavy. Her lungs were gasping for airs. but she never stopped running.

‘Professor, where the hell…?’

She traversed the battlefield of tens of thousands of people while preventing herself from vomiting blood.

And finally.

“Professor!!!!!”

In the innermost corner of the battlefield, neglected by everyone. She could see Yoo Seodam staring at Perutius’s corpse.

‘Ah.’

She wasn’t wrong.

His white eyes were something she hadn’t seen before, but those playful eyes were definitely his. Despite decades having passed since the last time she saw him, Yoo Seodam’s hairstyle was still the same. His outfit has become a little unique. He was wearing something like steel armor, not the coat she knew.

A lot had changed.

However, he was still Yoo seodam.

“Ah….Aa!” (It was like stuttering)

While feeling the tearing pain on her lungs, Aracelli squeezed all her available Mana and ran toward Yoo Seodam. She barely pushed away the cheering imperial army to reach him.

She came to a realization,

There’s no way she crossed between dimensions all of her life just to say ‘thank you’.

Didn’t her beating heart after seeing him prove it?

‘My heart is like this while I was looking for the professor.’

The whole world was shining brightly.

“Professor….!”

At that moment..

Suddenly, the space began to distort. Yoo Seodam’s body was engulfed in a golden light.

[10…9…8…]

‘Ah….?’

Intuitively, Araceli was able to figure out what it was.

After completing his mission, Yoo Seodam would always go away silently, ignoring everyone.

Just like the day when he saved her.

Once again,

“Oh no!!!”

She screamed with all her might. She could feel the iron taste of blood on her mouth.

“No, Professor! Don’t leave! Please, I am here! professor! Aracelli is here!”

[6…5…4…]

As if he heard Aracelli’s desperate scream. Yoo Seodam turned his head.

“What….?”

Finally, the blue and white pupils met each other.

“You…..”

“Professor, please! Don’t go!”

But it was already too late.

[2…1…0]

After Yoo Seodam’s body completely disappeared. Aracelli fell to the floor. She was gasping for airs while staring at the place he once stood.

Thud!!

“Oh!”

As she supported herself with her trembling arms, Aracelli slowly raised herself up.

“Ah, uh…”

He had disappeared. Without even leaving a trace.

Aracelli couldn’t feel Yoo Seodam’s presence anymore.

She could only scan the place he previously stood with her fingertips. In the end she wasn’t able to catch the professor again.

At that time, Aracelli hung her head in hopelessness and loss.

Wooooss…. Craaackkk!

But, suddenly, the air began to crack, and someone’s hand popped out of nowhere.

“Uh…?

The crack in the space gradually widened, and eventually it became the size of an adult’s upper body.

<Probability is needed to forcefully tear a dimension!>

<Currently, there is no residual amount of probability, so it consumes ‘lifetime’ instead!>

Yoo Seodam came out from the torn space. He made eye contact with Aracelli one more time.

“……How the hell did you come here?”

“Professor?”

As Aracelli opened her eyes wide as if she couldn’t believe it, Yoo seodam, was frowning at her with his hand reaching for her cheek.

“Why did you do this?”

“Ugh!”

As soon as his hand touched her, her body, which had grown younger after being affected by the fragments of time, gradually grew into her mid-twenty body.

“Professor….”

“That’s right. It’s me. You are Aracelli, right?”

“Yes Yes! You are right. I, Aracelli…”

What should I say?

She belatedly realized that Yoo Seodam was sweating profusely.

‘Ah…..’

She had only been traveling between dimensions by pursuing someone else’s trail, but Yoo Seodam, her professor was tearing the dimensional wall itself and trying to stay at this place.

She knew just by looking at Yoo seodam. He wouldn’t last longer.

There’s no time.

She needed to tell him what she wanted to say quickly.

‘Thank you. Thanks to you, my life…’ she was originally going to say that.

However, the moment she encountered him, she couldn’t say anything.

Instead.

‘I have to leave my mark!’

No matter which world Yoo Seodam would travel to, or in which time period, she would be able to track him.

So Aracelli put her hand on his neck and pressed her lips on Yoo Seodam’s lips.

“Ugh?”

When Mana flowed towards his lips, Yoo seodam could feel something warm and soft at once, and unknowingly, he swallowed it. Soon after her lips were removed, Aracelli hurried up and spoke up as the dimension wall began to reconstruct and Yoo Seodam’s body began to fade.

“I miss you! I really, really miss you.”

She smiled more beautifully than ever, and added her last word.

“Now……wherever you go, I will surely follow you, Professor.”

(BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~~~~~~~)
