Damned 13th Regression – 64

“therefore···. “Let’s get together for a moment.”
When Wilhelm begins the meeting hiding the sweat on his temples.
A guard from Special 0 Division was watching them from afar.
“Chief. “I confirmed that the dolls had carved marks on the floor.”
“okay? “Let’s deal with it quickly.”
Christa who was transferred from Department 2 spoke to Manager Jeong.
“Chief. “The bloody guys are already cutting off the heads of the dolls to check them.”
“Hmm scary guys. “As soon as I use the skill the dolls will explode.”
Manager Jeong summoned his avatar with enthusiasm for the first time in a long time.
His avatar is ‘Shinhaengtaebo Daejong’.
It was a space hero avatar that is difficult to find similar examples.
As one of the 108 heroes of Suhoji he seemed far from the space world but Daejong had one technique that was implemented in the space world.
That is ‘Chukjibeop’.
[Activates the avatar’s skill ‘Chukjibeop (S-)’.]
[Opens a wormhole at the marked location.]
“Are you just going to take it like that?”
“Joo Gong-hyeok is the top priority but other priority selections are also…”
While the knights were talking among themselves they couldn’t pay attention.
A wormhole that moved space appeared on the floor where Joo Gong-hyeok was standing sucking him in.
“Blast it!”
“four!”
At the same time fake Joo Gong-hyeok scattered everywhere exploded.
As the cotton balls flew in the air it became known to the whole world that it was a doll and Assistant Manager Shimada wrapped Joo Gong-hyeok the only one who did not explode in a cloth and shouted.
“Secure target!”
“good! “I’m coming back!”

Manager Jeong’s wormhole opened once more and their appearances disappeared.
* * *
“Whoa. “You’ve worked so hard.”
“Mr. Christa. Thank you for your hard work controlling hundreds of horses.”
“But wasn’t it fun this time?”
“Wolves and knights whenever they meet they act arrogantly. “The only way to look dumb is to giggle.”
“Fuhahaha!”
The members of Special Target 0 were talking excitedly unable to forget the joy of the ‘operation’ from earlier.
Manager Jeong Hyeon-do left his subordinates alone and unwrapped the wrapping cloth.
Inside was Joo Gong-hyeok cross-legged and looking up at him.
He glared at Joo Gong-hyuk.
“Hey newbie. “Welcome to Special Unit 0.”
“Hey~ Manager look at you setting the mood again.”
“Sweet! I am Jeong Hyeon-do section manager of Special 0. Do you understand? Newbie? “I’ll make you roll under me so hard that hell will envy you.”
As he laid out a bunch of warnings for training new recruits Joo Gong-hyeok applauded.
Clap clap clap
“ah. I see. “I saw your performance well.”
“Oh well it’s no big deal.”
“I watched with excitement as he used his wits to deceive all the hunters including wolves and knights and steal me.”
“Watch it?”
Manager Jeong felt something strange about his calm appearance.
However before he could ask that Joo Gong-hyeok continued.
“But Chief. “Can you the manager say that you are free from the shackles of fraud when you are defrauding someone?”
“you···.”
“Thank you for your hard work. See you next time. Manager Jeong.”
Pow!
After saying his final greeting Gonghyuk’s appearance dispersed like smoke.
“uh?”
“What is that! “Where did you go?”
The place corresponding to the entrance to ‘Company’ suddenly became noisy.
Rather than trying to stop it Manager Jeong recited a thought that came to his mind.
“This is Jecheon Daeseong.”
“Jecheon Daeseong? ah! Are you a self-immolation!?”
“oh my god. “I never thought I would use it so naturally as soon as I got it.”
“Ah Sipak. What should I do? “Is this going to break completely?”
Manager Jeong smiled bitterly.
“this. “It was a total hit.”

And at the same time a question arose.
‘Where is the real thing?’
* * *
‘Ben-Hur’ an executive of Deus shouted excitedly.
“Dear little brother! If Yeonsi and you join the remaining seats in ‘Mother’s Rosario’ will soon be filled!”
“That’s too much praise.”
“No no no. He even had a plan to outsmart other hunters by using his SS-level avatar as an alter ego. “It’s perfect for Rosario.”
He thumped the back of Joo Gong-hyeok who was showing his humility.
Rosary a rosary used when praying to the Virgin Mary.
Mother’s Rosario was a title given to Deus elites who followed Mother Christina.
Joo Gong-hyeok was a super rookie who not only possessed ‘Jecheon Daeseong’ but was also lacking in every area including strategy situational judgment ability and mission solving ability.
‘I guess you don’t know. Like this in a few years…’
When I saw him at the orphanage in the past he was just a high school student with no confidence.
What is unique is that the probability of avatar awakening is high.
7th Grand Summon. As a hunter who came to Babel a long time ago it was hard to find a case where he showed this level of potential.
“Gonghyuk. I don’t know if I remember. “In the past…”
When he talked about his memories of meeting Gonghyuk a few years ago Gonghyuk also had memories that passed through his mind.
“He killed Julia not long ago.”
“Julia?”
“No it’s nothing.”
‘I killed your wife two months ago.’
To the puzzled man Gonghyeok responded with the friendly smile he often wore in his first life.
Julia Froebe the savior of the second floor.
She and Ben-Hur often started a family through their relationship at Babel.
And the fruit of their love was an SS-class space-based ability that caused the twelfth destruction.
Ben-Hur patted his back gently with a puzzled look on his face.
“You came here to kill someone. Never mind. “Even those you couldn’t save can be saved with us.”
“it’s okay. “I don’t care.”
I’ve already killed her and you many times.
Many memories came to mind.
Ben-Hur was in pretty good company.
There were times when I didn’t listen and got angry because I beat him to death betrayed him and lured him into a trap.
‘Well I also abandoned Ben-Hur and ran away.’
The help I received from him an SS-class tank not only in his first life but also when the number of regressions was not yet full was countless.
Now I wonder what happened in the past and what happened there. It was just a seasoning to reminisce and enjoy the present.
Isn’t there something that feels newer when you kill someone?
It was important to focus on this appreciation because if you become too numb you lose the purpose that sustains your life.
“Ben-Hur.”
“Please feel free to call me brother. “The people from the Mahadeva Foundation’s orphanage are all brothers.”
“Brother Ben-Hur. “I’ve missed you all this time.”
“I’ve only seen you a few times but you remember me like that. “It feels good.”
There is no need to kill yet.
The reason he killed Julia was because he wanted to eliminate any possible factors as quickly as possible.
Ben-Hur had a lot of work to do as the rock of Deus.
“Oh Chinlong! “Here I bring my beloved brother!”
“Don’t be nervous. “I hear it all around me.”
Qin Long a handsome man with a calm expression mistreated Ben-Hur.
There was a woman watching the scene from the side and smiling softly.
“We met again. Gonghyuk.”
“yes. mother.”
The two looked at each other quietly for several minutes.
“Representative?”
As the silence continued Qinlong called out to her with doubt.
Then Christina sighed deeply.
“Gonghyuk. “How are you?”
“You’re safe.”
“okay. “Weren’t you surprised because everything was so different as soon as you got to the 5th floor?”
“I was surprised. I was even more surprised on the 4th floor. “My life was in danger right now.”
“I see.”
She remained silent again then opened her mouth.
“Take the airship back with Qinlong Ben-Hur first.”
“Mother. “Why?”
She smiled softly.
“There is no reason to go quickly.”
Christina took a step forward took his hand and placed a soft kiss on his forehead.
“I’ll leave Rosario’s seat empty. “Please come visit us any time.”
Gonghyuk also responded as he looked at the approaching giant city.
“teacher. Next time we meet we will meet on equal footing.”
“Don’t overdo it.”
“Please pray that I don’t let down my guard.”
He smiled grimly and disappeared.
Ben-Hur slapped his head and lamented.
“Was that an alter ego too? “You can’t be this stupid…”
Christina touched the smoke he left behind with her fingertips and looked disappointed.
And her eyes turned to the giant city that was approaching leaving behind huge footprints.
“If you just let it go after ruining the meeting like this you wouldn’t be setting a good example as the vanguard of the attack faction right?”
“Mother! “No!”
“If we had named him safely or had time to talk leisurely things wouldn’t have turned out like this…”
The image of Kali the Goddess of Slaughter appeared behind her.
Bleeding arms lined up with eerie eyes shining.
“Representative if an all-out war breaks out other cities will suffer damage…”
“still. “I’m a little angry.”
[‘Slaughter Goddess Kali’s’ 3rd ability ‘Six Hands Pumpkin’ activated.]
[It is possible to activate each of the six skills using the Hand of Goddess Kali.]
White light formed from Avatar Kali’s six hands.
“I have no intention of breaking anything.”
[A-level skill Strong Wan activated.]
[A-level skill Strong Wan activated.]
[A-level skill Strong Wan activated.]
[A-level skill Strong Wan······.
“I’ll hit you lightly.”
Damn it.
170000 population 96㎢.
The knees of the giant city that supports it break like candy bars.
Christina C. Mahadeva.
She was humanity’s strongest hunter.
* * *
Company’s competition hall.
The executives who made up the company and the city’s powerful people were gathered in one place.
Cesc pointed to a profit graph floating in the air.
“The biggest profit makers at this meeting were the potions and food sectors. “The equipment division did not have a significant advantage in competition with its rival city Legion.”
Kozlov who was in charge of the equipment industry had a crumpled expression.
“The alchemy division and the commerce division will be paid performance bonuses. Additionally the bond sales rate increased by 120%…”
“stop. stop. “Let’s stop talking about unnecessary things here.”
Alfred went up to the podium and finished Cesc’s explanation.
“Adventure. “Actually there is another reason for calling these distinguished guests.”
‘It only took 10 people to get together but they invited 100 people.’ As they thought to themselves they listened. Alfred signaled back.
Then ten people came out from the back of the auditorium.
“This is a new recruit brought in by Alfred himself.”
“Hehe you must have been very busy.”
“If Alfred made the move he must have been an ordinary person.”
Alfred continued satisfied with the audience’s reaction.
“Of course. It beat out 10 other cities and took first place in nomination. “This is Joo Gong-hyuk here.”
The spotlight focused on Joo Gong-hyuk who stood first.
As he took a step forward Alfred raised his voice.
“He is the protagonist of an SS-class combat avatar that has never existed in our company before!”
“SS level? “What kind of monster is this?”
“oh? Mr. Martunis. “Your avatar level is…”
“Haha it’s only about S rank.”
Martunis Deputy Director of the Mercenary Division smiled awkwardly.
Certainly even that level was difficult to find here or in the entire company.
However as the S grade was rare the gap with the SS grade was as wide as heaven and earth.
In fact until reaching the 5th floor the only owners of SS-class avatars were Joo Gong-hyeok and Ha Yeon-si.
“It’s not just that. Gonghyeok here had the talent of multi-avatar possessing one more avatar in addition to the SS-class avatar! ”
“Detailed information will be posted on the data screen.”
Ten people’s profiles appeared on the hologram on the ceiling.
“Technology B? “Are you the newbie who came up to the 5th floor yesterday?”
“The average ability level is C grade and there is even a unique skill.”
“There is not just one SS-level avatar. There’s also a kid named Hayeonsi…”
“Soma Sangai… I’ve heard of it. Dhritarashtra of Tibet. He is also a multi-avatar…”
“The director of foreign affairs exploded something big.”
Hayeonsi and Soma were embarrassed to see them.
Hunters in suits. A competition hall that resembles a fancy ballroom.
Because I never imagined that there would be a place like this in Babel which is made up of dungeons.
Alfred smiled at the unique foolishness of a newbie.
‘There will be many surprises in the future.’
As I left the conference room I saw eight hunters including Joo Gong-hyeok sticking around.
He said as he lit a cigar.
I want to join ‘Company’ more than any other city.
‘It’s the best deal.’
Pumpkins arrived on the vine without any cost.
The company with the largest population and influence among the current unique cities.
Alfred the second-in-command was eager to prove that his choice was right.
I picked up the microphone with uncontrollable laughter.
“Gonghyeok Joo here will be affiliated with the Mercenary Division according to his wishes! We hope that he will become a symbol representing our company…”
At this point he didn’t know.
What he was carrying was not a golden egg that would support the company’s rock but a cancer that would devour the company.
Everyone thinks that they will not be fooled as much as they are.
That is until all of his assets were stolen.
