The fact that the Management Bureau employees knew Ban No-ah’s current location was definitely fortunate for me.
[Good! Right?]
‘Yeah.’
But why?
‘If I meet that bastard, I have this ominous feeling that something bad will happen…’
Let’s not have unnecessary thoughts.
Everything is going well.
‘The moment to avenge my enemy is finally approaching.’
Why am I so uneasy?
Is it because I died once because of that bastard?
‘It’s different from that…’
A feeling different from the shame and disgrace that arose from what happened before stirred and disturbed my heart.
It was similar to the feeling I had when I faced the mutated Dungeon entrance with the reddish egg sac.
The ominous feeling was hard to shake off.
‘No. Everything is going well.’
Isn’t this moment here because I wanted the person who committed the wrong to pay for their sins?
‘It’s okay. Everything will be fine.’
There’s no way I’ll lose my life by being careless like last time. Absolutely not.
I tried to suppress the chilling anxiety in my chest and moved forward.
To plunge the blade of revenge into the heart of the murderer.
And to sever the chain of evil that has stubbornly continued for 20 years.
Ban No-ah was confident in his plan.
‘No matter how great Hyeon Jae-ha is, he’ll be helpless in a mutated Dungeon where there’s no way to escape.’
That’s what he believed.
The strongest tend to be careless, trusting only in their own power.
Would Hyeon Jae-ha be any different? He’s just a human being.
If he was caught off guard with a completely unexpected move, he would collapse like a sandcastle.
Like a lion, the king of beasts, drowning after being submerged in deep water.
He artificially created an environment where his powerful ability wouldn’t work and threw him in.
He thought he would die there.
Begging for God’s mercy like a bug, then cursing God again, crumbling like a dried piece of paper, he imagined cruelly.
But, alas, the goddess of fortune did not favor Ban No-ah.
“Why!”
Crash, bang, the sound of objects breaking and shattering in the room echoed loudly.
Telekinesis similar to Hyeon Jae-ha’s, but far inferior.
All sorts of stolen abilities were mixed around it, messing up the interior.
Swinging with the collapsed emotional range of the owner, Ban No-ah.
“Why does Hyeon Jae-ha, that bastard, always survive!”
Ban No-ah cried out in the chaotic scene as if a small tornado had swept through.
“I thought I would succeed in killing him this time…”
He failed again.
Seeing Hyeon Jae-ha, who stubbornly survived even in trials like a cockroach or a bedbug, the embers of inferiority that would not go out flared up fiercely.
He always hated Hyeon Jae-ha.
At the same time, he admired his strength deep down, though he didn’t want to admit it.
The desire to be like him went too far, turning into envy and jealousy, and ultimately leading to a destructive result.
“Why! Why! Why!!!”
Clang-.
A transparent nameplate, cut in half, rolled in front of Ban No-ah, who was screaming hysterically.
[Management Bureau Special Esper – Blue Code Ban No-ah]
It was a prop prepared for a press conference that he was going to hold when he confirmed that Hyeon Jae-ha and An Ga-hyeon, including all the annoying people, were all dead.
“I was almost there, why! Why do I always have these obstacles?”
It’s all because of that bastard, Hyeon Jae-ha.
Ban No-ah, smashing all sorts of furniture and muttering only Hyeon Jae-ha’s name, looked like a madman.
Arrogantly, Ban No-ah had intended to carry out what he had said to Hyeon Jae-ha and An Ga-hyeon.
The absurd goal of becoming the ‘god’ of all people.
‘I could have done it, I could have done it.’
Unable to overcome the high wall that was Hyeon Jae-ha, he became obsessed with scraping together useful abilities.
Even so, he couldn’t beat Hyeon Jae-ha, so he finally reached a thought that went beyond common sense.
‘That’s right… If I have this many abilities, I might be able to reign as the god of Ability Users myself.’
The vain dream gave courage to Ban No-ah, who was a coward.
That courage turned into fear, despair, and impatience after Yeon Yu-jin, who was resurrected as An Ga-hyeon, stole three important red orbs.
‘An Ga-hyeon! That bastard is just like his partner, Hyeon Jae-ha!’
The Esper and Guide were a pair that were skilled at interfering with Ban No-ah.
‘Those orbs… If only I hadn’t lost those orbs…’
By now, he would be holding a press conference with a bright expression.
Claiming that he could solve all the Dungeon Breaks that had recently occurred.
In reality, he intended to use the orbs containing the ability to manipulate Dungeons to calm down the self-made dramas he had committed.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it…!”
Ban No-ah, whose plans didn’t go as planned, was barging into the Management Bureau and causing a ruckus.
He arbitrarily occupied the room of the Management Bureau’s top executive and was holed up inside, screaming.
Management Bureau employees who had been Brainwashed by Ban No-ah’s red orbs or bought with money stood blankly. Some looked at the chaotic mess and disappeared somewhere.
The only ones left by Ban No-ah’s side, who was acting like a spoiled child, were his biological parents who gave birth to him.
“Hey, hey. Calm down!”
“Yes, honey. What’s the big deal about Hyeon Jae-ha reappearing? We’ve already taken over the entire Management Bureau. No matter how much they struggle, they’ll just be outnumbered.”
Unlike their son, who didn’t age like a monster, his elderly parents, whose wrinkles had increased and become shriveled, still tried to soothe their son.
“…What do you know, incompetent father and mother who don’t even have abilities?”
Ban No-ah glared even at his parents.
“What, what?”
“He’s been spoiled, and now he’s saying things he can’t say to his parents…!”
His parents’ faces turned red and blue and distorted, but Ban No-ah sneered at them.
“Why? Isn’t it true, you incompetent people.”
Ban No-ah gave his parents, who had granted everything he had wanted so far, a cold look of disregard and contempt.
There was no gratitude or respect for his parents in that gaze.
“Where are you incompetent people getting off giving advice on Ability User matters? It’s disgusting.”
“You, you…!”
Ban No-ah’s father, whose hair was gray, was about to roll his eyes back at the unfilial son’s words.
His mother raised her voice and belatedly cursed her son.
“You, you…! How much did it cost to support you all this time! From the moment you said you wanted to have an ability, how hard did we work to prevent your identity from being revealed! The amount of bribes that went to political figures alone…!”
“……”
“You don’t even know who protected you…!”
As his parents screamed annoyingly, Ban No-ah picked at his ears as if a mosquito was buzzing from somewhere.
“Shut up.”
“You…!”
Ugh. Ugh.
Ban No-ah’s parents were soon unable to pour out their nagging on their son.
“Cough…”
“Annoying old people. What you did for me was what parents should do for their children, right?”
I wanted to curse him as such a bastard, but the old parents were pure ordinary people who could not resist the intangible force that tightened their necks and bodies.
In front of ability, their money was useless.
“Huk…. Keuheok….”
Soon their consciousness slowly faded away.
Dying at the hands of their son, the parents regretted the past.
‘Mother, Father!’
‘Huh?’
‘I, I want to become an Ability User like that Esper!’
‘What nonsense are you talking about? Even if you become an Ability User, you’ll just be drafted to protect the country. You should be grateful that you’re an ordinary person with no ability!’
‘Please, please. I really want to have an ability. Huh?’
His parents were very embarrassed at the time.
The only thing their young son wanted was ability.
But their son… even as an adult, showed no signs of awakening at all.
Their son was a perfect ordinary person.
An ordinary person who couldn’t even reach E-class, let alone F-class.
After learning that fact, their son pleaded with tears to his parents.
‘Please give me an ability as a gift, Father. Mother. I feel like I’m going to die without it.’
It was difficult to refuse their son’s earnest wish because it was a family with few descendants.
So they committed an act that should not have been done.
Through secret research that poured in capital, they found a way to steal the core of ability from Ability Users.
There were many Ability Users who died countless times in the front lines.
The government welcomed the results of this research.
‘If we can extract the core from the corpses of dead Ability Users in time, it can be recycled…!’
‘Isn’t this a miracle?’
Thus, the number of red orbs of ability given to their son increased.
But their son was not satisfied with that.
‘This is not enough… It has to be a special ability that can stand side by side with Hyeon Jae-ha, Hyeon Jae-ha.’
For example, like his partner Guide, An Ga-hyeon.
Surprisingly, An Ga-hyeon didn’t know that his additional ability was ‘Resurrection’.
As soon as he heard the news, his son was overjoyed and asked him to kill An Ga-hyeon.
‘Please. Father.’
Isn’t it easy?
‘There are countless Ability Users who die fighting monsters that come out of the Dungeon. We just need to add a little seasoning to it.’
The red gem flickered ominously in his son’s hand.
‘That’s right… For example, a stronger monster than reported could come out, and they would inevitably die.’
Ban No-ah’s parents regretted it only when they were about to die.
They should not have granted their son’s request in the name of love.
If they had, if they had…
Their regret was cut off in the middle without continuing to the end.
