Chapter 103: Earth Hwanmong Defense Army’s 7th Commander (2)

Rainkar’s eyes shone .

"Therefore, given the chance and no matter how painful the process, you must concentrate and gain enlightenment . That enlightenment will give you greater strength than hunting monsters over time will . ”

“I will keep that in mind . ”

Rainkar revealed the secret about how he had become the strongest man in Earth Hwanmong .

However, the other commanders didn’t show any signs of surprise .

"After this meeting, it will be time for you to leave Hwanmong . The next time you enter Hwanmong, go to the Guardian Hall without any delay . ”

“Yes . ”

Kang-jun nodded .

Then Binhaim said,

"The 7th Army Commander will sit down . The meeting will start . ”

"I'll do that . "

Driana returned to the Yugang building while Kang-jun settled down on the 7th throne .

At that moment, the thrones moved into a circle and a round table appeared in the middle .

The 11 senior commanders faced each other at the round table .

Binhaim looked around and said,

“It is very reassuring to have the vacant position of 7th Army Commander filled . Although we have the advantage, the Second Demon King is likely to attack more vigorously in the future, so everyone has to be prepared . ”

Madun nodded .

"This is something that has occurred in other Hwanmongs . The defending army was prevalent when the pirata suddenly changed the direction of attack towards making the sovereigns fight each other . The war between sovereigns weakened the defenders and the pirata eventually obtained the Hwanmong . ”

He continued speaking,

"Therefore, It is a good idea to encourage the lower commanders to dispel such thoughts . ”

“I also think so . ”

"It is a good idea . ”

The other commanders agreed .

Kang-jun also nodded .

He didn’t know what was specifically used to attack the hearts of the sovereigns but it made sense to be careful in Hwanmong .

The brief meeting ended .

A new message appeared in front of Kang-jun .

[You have become one of the senior army commanders that represents the Earth Hwanmong Defense Army . ]

[Charisma has increased by one . ]

[Good Luck has increased by one . ]

Thanks to that, his charisma and good luck stats rose by one .

'Yes, good luck!'

Kang-jun felt a lot of pleasure from seeing his charisma and good luck increase .

Lv . 65 (Exp 00 . 00%)

[War] Advanced

Health: 6470/6470

Black Magic Energy: 6020/6020

Strength: 69 (+5)

Agility: 70 (+5)

Intelligence: 66

Good Luck: 11

Charisma: 23 (+4)

The moment he checked the status window, the surrounding space started to distort .

[The door to Hwanmong is closed . ]

[Your time in the world of Hwanmong is over . ]

The Skia rang as soon as he woke up .

[￦30,331,900,000 has been deposited . ]

It was a text message stating that the Black Dragon Law Firm had deposited 30,331,900,000 won .

The cash he swapped for achievement points was immediately deposited .

‘I made another 30 billion won during the night . ’

Kang-jun smiled pleasantly at Hayun and she smiled back .

"You seem very happy today . ”

"I became a senior commander . To be precise, I am the 7th Commander of Earth Hwanmong’s Defense Army . ”

"That is fantastic . Congratulations . ”

“Thank you . Also, in the meantime, stop buying buildings . I have to collect money to buy the Delta building . ”

"The Delta building?”

Hayun’s eyes widened . She also knew about the Delta building .

Kang-jun nodded .

“The building is worth approximately one trillion won . It is the place that Heksia occupied and I have a reason why I must own it . It is for the sake of building the Lucky Tower on the rooftop . ”

“I see . ”

The Lucky Tower had the tough condition of Kang-jun needing to buy the Delta building .

Heksia had occupied the Delta building in Hwanmong but that had nothing to do with owning it in reality .

The current owner of the Delta building was a foreign company .

As a result, Kang-jun needed to negotiate with the company to buy the Delta building and make it his territory .

Hayun told him .

"If the building is one trillion won, then half of it can be covered by a bank loan . ”

"I guess so . ”

Including the money from today, he currently had around 170 billion won .

Of course, he could make more money if he disposed of his buildings . However, he couldn’t do that because they were used as important bases in Hwanmong .

So, he had to make around 330 billion won more .

If he kept on trading achievement points and moonstones in Hwanmong, he would be able to collect money faster than he thought .

Kang-jun told Hayun,

"From now on, you will work with Secretary Kim Hye-na to prepare for the takeover of Delta building . Ask Lawyer Han Yeon-soo for advice . ”

“Yes, leave it to me . If possible, I will negotiate for a good price . ”

“Yes . ”

Kang-jun nodded but he felt strange for some reason .

It was because he was thinking about his assets in the billions .

However, that was nothing compared to Hwanmong .

Being the owner of the Delta building was nothing compared to being the 7th Army Commander of the Earth Hwanmong Defense Army .

He was a powerful presence that could command the lower army commanders and stand shoulder to shoulder with senior commanders consisting of demon and dragons .

He was one of the top 11 commanders in Earth Hwanmong, Lucan!

It had been a right given to Kang-jun .

After a while, Kang-jun finished breakfast and headed to the cafe on the 4th floor of the Dafeng building .

Just like a library, the walls contained shelves filled with books of various fields, including management .

"It is full of people in the morning . ”

Kang-jun hadn’t used his management skills, so he was surprised that business was so good .

Then Colt smiled and said,

"According to my research, most of them are working or living in Lord’s occupied territories . ”

“Really?”

"Yes, there are also many from the Delta building who come here to drink coffee . ”

The Delta building was quite a distance from the Dafeng building . It was more than five minutes by car and a long walk on foot .

There were book cafes and coffee stores everywhere, so why did they come here?

He hadn’t done any advertising after opening the cafe .

‘Does occupying a building have this effect?’

Then occupying more areas would be helpful for business . It would be a jackpot if he took over a large apartment complex .

Of course, he didn’t have to do such troublesome things now that he was making enough money .

It was all thanks to the red moon .

Kang-jun was able to earn a large amount of money in a short time thanks to it .

Otherwise, Kang-jun would have to make the most of his management skills to earn money .

Seven in the evening .

The Jade Incense Restaurant, Cheongdam-dong .

Hardis and the other alliance members gathered .

All 23 of them .

Compared to the beginning, their numbers had grown by 12 people .

Yoo Seung-hwan said with a hard expression,

"I’ve gathered you here today because there are many people who are skeptical about the purpose of our alliance . There are those who want to quit because they no longer want to be hostile toward Lucan . ”

"I'll withdraw . Lucan is an army commander . Fighting against him is crazy . ”

"I don’t intend to fight the number one sovereign in Earth Hwanmong . Hardis, the hostile alliance is yours alone . ”

The sovereigns started talking as soon as Yoo Seung-hwan brought it up . There was no one willing to fight Lucan .

Only Kim Kun-woo, otherwise known as Zenith, had something else to say .

"He is strong but that is just in Hwanmong . If we join forces in reality then . . . ”

However, this comment wasn’t very helpful in this situation .

"Shut up . Zenith! You must have lost your wits after being defeated by him . ”

"Kim Kun-woo can do as you like . We will withdraw from this alliance . ”

Thus, the Hardis’ alliance was broken .

It was now 7:30 .

The people had left without eating and only Yoo Seung-hwan and Kim Kun-woo remained at the table .

Kim Kun-woo struck his chest like it was frustrating .

"Shit! Cowards!”

“What can we do? This is because we are weak . ”

Yoo Seung-hwan said with a sickly expression . Frankly, they knew that the alliance against Lucan was meaningless, so the atmosphere was subdued .

They started drinking because they had nothing else to do .

After two cups . . .

They felt so bad that they drank endlessly .

So, after a while, Kim Kun-woo complained with a red face .

"I really don’t like that Lucan . Isn’t there a way to get rid of him?”

"I know what you mean . I will die before I have to bow to that guy who used to be below me . ”

“Kuhuhu! It is the same with me . ”

"If we don’t give up, an opportunity will come . Today, let’s just drink alcohol . ”

“Okay . ”

In the end, Yoo Seung-hwan and Kim Kun-woo drank at the Jade Incense restaurant till late into the night .

They went to a room salon and Yoo Seung-hwan woke up in a hotel room .

The woman in his bed was his partner from the room salon .

However, that wasn’t the reason why Yoo Seung-hwan was surprised .

It was because he had a very special dream .

Of course, it was a normal dream not Hwanmong .

“Hardis! Do you want to beat Lucan? I can give you that type of power . ”

A mysterious voice resonated in the vast space .

A stylish young man appeared in front of him .

Yoo Seung-hwan stared at the young man riding a bizarre bird with red feathers .

The atmosphere around him was so formidable that Yoo Seung-hwan couldn’t look at him properly .

"Who are you?”

"Your enemy, Colladikus the Second Demon King . I am him . ”

"Heok!"

"Don't be surprised . I don’t want to hurt you . ”

"Why did you come to me?"

"I can give you great power . If you follow me, you will be able to escape the terrible binds of the sovereigns . ”

"Escape the binds of the sovereigns . What are you saying?”

"It means you will no longer be tied by the fate of the sovereigns . In other words, you won’t go to hell even if you lose in battle . ”

"T-that!”

"How about it? Won’t you follow me? Then you will rule Earth with me in the future . Of course, Lucan will turn into a cold body at your feet . ”

“I will do it . Just give me the strength . ”

Hardis unknowingly exclaimed .

It felt like fate to follow the Second Demon King .

A wicked smile appeared on Colladikus’ face but Hardis didn’t notice .

Then he woke up .

‘What was that dream?’

Yoo Seung-hwan sat here with a confused expression before going to sleep again due to his hangover .

Since then, his routine passed as normal, so he forgot his dream .

Two days later at 10 o’clock at night .

The time came to enter Hwanmong .

Kang-jun fell asleep while listening to Hayun’s lullaby .

[The door to Hwanmong is open . ]

Kang-jun appeared at the base of the Yugang building where Keirun, Germuz, Rodiam, Kajel, Melinad, Heksia and Driana were waiting .

“Lord! You have become a senior commander . ”

"Congratulations on becoming the 7th Commander . ”

“Lord! Congratulations, ong . ”

“Haha! Thank you . I am glad that you have also become stronger . ”

Kang-jun shook their hands or stroked their heads, then headed to the headquarters of the Defense Army .

Today, he had to go there as quickly as possible .

Binhaim was pleased to see Kang-jun .

"Welcome, 7th Commander . Today, you should enter the Guardian Hall immediately .

“Yes . ”

With Binhaim, Kang-jun used the magic circle to move to the Guardian Hall .

He appeared at the entrance of a huge building surrounded with a golden light .
