    Episode 145

    When she opened her eyes she saw the inside of a familiar cave.

    ‘Where I did my first job change.’

    This was the cave where the first job change quest was conducted at the time.

    Jeonghoon slowly walked forward.

    A waterfall gushing down behind your back.

    Even the surrounding area where there was still not a single ray of light where the torch mounted on the wall was burning brightly and illuminating the area.

    And then a familiar old man slowly appeared.

    Cheongyeom Kwon Hyeonje.

    He was still sitting in the chair and reading a book.

    “hmm?”

    But unlike the first time this time he took his eyes off the book and looked at Jeonghoon.

    “It’s been a while.”

    “…Why did you come so quickly?”

    Kwon Hyeon-je stuck out his tongue at Jeong Hoon’s growth rate.

    When a stranger comes back to you it is when your potential explodes and is on the verge of flowering.

    It is bound to take a considerable amount of time to reach that stage.

    However Jeong-Hoon in front of me reached that stage several times faster than the others.

    “Is that so? “It came a little slower than I thought.”

    “…You mean it came slowly? “You just ate it all by yourself?”

    “Well it’s not wrong.”

    Jeonghoon accepted it obediently.

    I was able to grow so quickly because I did a lot.

    “Fuhaha! good job! “Very good!”

    Kwon Hyeon-je was so happy that he even clapped his hands.

    I felt like I wanted to run right away and give that face a kiss.

    Who said martial arts were in decline?

    You sneaky bastards.

    Did you see it?

    That is true martial arts!

    “Then can I start my third job change right away?”

    “Hmm… the ‘No Sulfur’ class you are currently handling has limitations in certain areas. “It won’t be easy to lift that limit.”

    “yes. “I know.”

    The second job change was easy through the event but in fact the difficulty of the hidden class job change is several times that of the regular job change.

    Also since this was Jeong Hoon’s first time doing the Hidden Class Emperor Muwang’s change quest he had to do it without any knowledge of the future.

    “The level of difficulty will be considerable. “If you want to lift the limit of Emperor Wu you will need to be recognized by someone like him.”

    “I am prepared for that much.”

    Kwon Hyeon-je who saw Jeong-hoon’s serious eyes immediately nodded his head.

    “…good. “That should be enough.”

    Then he snapped his fingers.

    Then a portal was created next to the pile of stones.

    [You have completed the quest.]

    [You will now be able to perform the Job Change Quest: Trial (1/2).]

    A question mark blinks above Kwon Hyeon-je’s head.

    [Job Change Quest: Trial (1/2)]

    -Restriction: Clear job change quest: Opening of Power.

    -Reward: Can perform ‘Job Change Quest: Trial (2/2)’.

    -Description: Qualified. The time has come to unleash dormant powers.

    Jeonghoon said as he accepted the quest.

    “Can I just go through that portal?”

    Kwon Hyeon I nodded his head.

    “I wish you luck.”

    “yes.”

    * * *

    Jeong Hoon entered the portal and Kwon Hyeon-je closed his book and stared at the portal quietly like a stone statue.

    And soon after the color of the portal turned black.

    Kwon Hyeonje’s mouth dropped open when he saw that color.

    ‘Huh… of course.’

    Portals indicate difficulty based on their color.

    White is easy.

    Blue is normal.

    Orange is a bit difficult.

    Purple is difficult.

    Red is very difficult.

    And black was Hell difficulty.

    “…How on earth would you give something so difficult?”

    The story of the portal turning black is the same as saying that it is virtually impossible to pass the test.

    This is because it touches the most painful part of the ordealer’s heart and destroys their spirit.

    No matter how much he has unrivaled talent can he be considered to have the mental strength to overcome his own trauma?

    “I guess I’ll just have to watch.”

    I hope you overcome the slim odds and succeed in changing jobs.

    So these idiots with brains full of shit point weapons like swords or spears at people.

    Those mean bastards who shoot arrows furiously from a distance.

    They are sneaky bastards who carry guns and use all their firepower.

    I sincerely hope that you will destroy all the unreasonable bastards who tear burn and melt people with the strange science of magic.

    If Jeong-hoon releases all his power you will be done… Repeat again that you will be defeated soon.

    Kwon Hyeonje grinned and then suddenly tilted his head.

    “huh? “Now that I think about it was it my mistake to see traces of using a different weapon?”

    ….

    Probably not.

    It was only yesterday that he confidently declared that he would walk the path of true martial arts.

    There’s no way he could have used a sword or a bow.

    Jeong Hoon is a disciple of King Myeong who continues the lineage of Myeongwang Quanbeop.

    For a moment he reflected on doubting Dok Go-jun’s disciple.

    * * *

    I came through the portal.

    It was a large plain.

    Ugh-

    In the center of it all a green stone that was not his clone was floating in the air and vibrating slightly.

    “…What is that?”

    Jeonghoon approached the stone.

    An exclamation point was blinking above the stone.

    [You have completed the quest.]

    [You will now be able to perform the Job Change Quest: Trial (2/2).]

    Step 1 of the quest was simple enough to be boring.

    At the same time Jeonghoon’s face hardened slightly.

    [what? Why is your expression like that?]

    ‘Things seem to be going along easily… isn’t that so?’

    Mukho and Anima saw Jeonghun’s expression and asked.

    “huh. Usually if step 1 is easy step 2 is very difficult.”

    New World did not give the quest itself easily.

    In particular the fact that the Hidden Advancement Quest which is known to be twice as difficult is pushed back like this probably means that the last step is extremely difficult.

    [Is it true that the hidden class has a different transfer process?]

    -So you’re doing the quest without a guide?

    └ㅇㅇ They said so.

    └Really Eva… It’s not over just because you got the hidden class.

    └It’s just gambling haha.

    Muhwang is a hidden class that Jeong Hoon also experiences for the first time.

    That’s why you don’t know what quests will come out.

    A question mark blinked above the stone again.

    [Job Change Quest: Trial (2/2)]

    -Restriction: Advancement Quest: Clear Trial (1/2).

    -Reward: 3rd job change

    -Description: Qualified. The time has come to unleash dormant powers.

    How will it proceed?

    When Jeonghoon accepted the quest his vision went dark.

    And when it became bright again Jeonghoon was standing in a familiar space.

    ‘Where?’

    Before his return Jeong Hoon successfully completed his third job change after a long struggle with his alter ego.

    In the process he achieved excellent results and rose to Epic level.

    However Emperor Wu’s ordeal this time was a completely different story.

    The place where Jeonghoon was standing was the school library.

    [It’s an interesting place isn’t it?]

    ‘Master where am I?’

    This familiar place is the library where Jeonghoon studied while going to school.

    “The library of the school I attended.”

    [school? What does that place do?]

    ‘Wow you’re stupid. You’re talking about a clan.’

    Jeonghoon chuckled and went down the library stairs to the first floor.

    A fake world created by bringing unconscious memories to the surface.

    Still I didn’t feel the slightest sense of strangeness.

    ‘huh?’

    As I was going down the stairs I saw a familiar man on the first floor.

    [uh? Isn’t that the owner?]

    Mukho recognized the man at a glance.

    He was none other than Jeong Hoon.

    ‘I see. Even though the vibes are different the owner is right.’

    He looked so similar to Jeonghoon that even Anima recognized him and he was waiting for the elevator.

    “Oh I think I know what kind of test this is.”

    The corners of Jeonghoon’s mouth quirked up.

    When he was promoted to Emperor Wu he rose in the rank of Strong Will.

    This will is spirit.

    In other words the system set up a test to test Jung Hoon’s ‘spirit’ in order to lift his limit restrictions.

    <The time has come.>

    <Synchronization begins.>

    And a message appeared in front of Jeong Hoon.

    Originally this message would be transmitted through all electronic devices around the world.

    ‘under.’

    Coogugung. Coogung!

    And a huge tremor repeatedly sounded outside.

    Jeonghoon hurriedly left the library.

    And I could see it.

    “Aaaah!”

    “Save people!”

    “It’s Black King Tiger right?! “Why is that coming out here?”

    People screaming and running away

    “human being! “Kill it!”

    “Kill!”

    A tiger-like monster that chases such people.

    It was the same sight that Jeonghoon saw before returning.

    [It embodies some of the despairing situations in my memory.]

    [The first test begins.]

    The ordeal of the third job change was simple.

    Carrying out a mission in a setting based on terrible memories.

    He really is worse than the devil.

    [Wow… a devil worse than the owner has appeared!]

    ‘Bringing up a terrible memory and making him face it… that’s a really dirty way to use it.’

    Mukho and Anima clicked their tongues at the details of the ordeal.

    Everyone has terrible memories that they never want to remember again.

    Who would be able to easily take on the challenge of digging through such terrible memories and facing the trauma again?

    It was not an easy task even for Jeong-hoon who remembered everything.

    [Do you want to give up?]

    [If you give up you will not be able to re-enter for 7 days.]

    Once you give up you cannot continue the challenge for 7 days.

    And you have to do the same task again.

    ‘That can’t be possible.’

    He was building his strength to change these terrible memories but the option of giving up his strength did not exist in his mind.

    Jeonghoon checked the time.

    The current time is 2 PM.

    The building of the company where his mother works must have also been attacked.

    There was no time for this now.

    [Lv.155 Black King Tiger]

    [Eliminate all Black King Tigers.]

    [You must eliminate all monsters to enter the next area.]

    However in order to pass here you have to eliminate the Black King Tiger.

    “Ha fuck.”

    Jeonghoon cursed and took out his anima and pulled the strings.

    Pushuuuk!

    The arrow was fired and pierced Black King Tiger between the eyes.

    “Kiyaeng!”

    Black King Tiger whose vital area was pierced died.

    It was very easy prey for Jeong Hoon who was at level 203.

    “Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! human being!”

    “Here is a human using power!”

    “Kill!”

    In an instant Black King Tiger’s target changed from many people to just one Jeong Hoon.

    Black King Tiger changed direction and attacked Jeonghoon like a swarm of bees.

    Jeong Hoon put down his anima and prepared the Myo-King technique.

    “Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

    A Black King Tiger rushed toward Jeonghoon without hesitation baring its fangs.

    Then Jeong Hoon raised the energy of the 1st level of Myoko Fist Technique and uppercutted the guy’s chin.

    “Kiyaeng!”

    The thing rose into the air with a scream and fell to the ground.

    Soon the massacre began.

    The level 155 Black King Tigers fell to the ground one by one every time Jeong Hoon stretched out his fists while performing a new technique unable to get up.

    Before the cup ramen was finished all the Black King Tigers turned into cold corpses.

    [All Black King Tigers have been eliminated.]

    [You can enter the next area.]

    There was no time.

    “Wow… what is that?”

    “This is really awesome… I just played with Black King Tiger!”

    “Hey what is this situation right now…? “Am I dreaming now?”

    “uh? Status is open!”

    “what?! It’s real right? Why the New World System…?”

    The people who were running away were already busy watching Jeong Hoon’s battle.

    But nothing caught Jeonghoon’s eyes.

    All he could think about was that he had to move on to the next area.

    He hurriedly unfolded the Divine Law and moved forward.

    However soon a barrier blocked Jeonghun.

    A portal was flickering in front.

    “Are you telling me to go through the portal?”

    After making a quick decision Jeong Hoon went through the portal.

    The place we came across was a small park located near his mother’s company.

    “They said they implemented only part of it so it’s okay.”

    If it had been implemented perfectly it would have taken longer to reach my mother’s company.

    Jeonghoon looked ahead.

    [Lv.221 Deformed Black King Tiger]

    In front of it lurked different bloodier monsters than before.

    [Eliminate all deformed Black King Tigers within 5 minutes.]

    [In case of failure the test ends automatically.]

    Also a new mission was given.

    There was even a time limit of 5 minutes this time.

    “5 minutes? “I’ll finish it in two minutes.”

    Before he knew it Leviathan was in Jeonghoon’s hand.

    [Type 1: Activates standing.]
