At the Orca Kingdom, Duke Doug’s mansion...
“...Umm.”
Drain slowly opened his eyes with a short groan. He slowly raised his upper body and looked around. This was his personal design room. The surroundings were dark. There were no burning candles or the sound of people. Only dark loneliness remained in the mansion like he had been all alone in the world.
Drain cleaned his messy hair and cleared his mind as he looked at the messages floating in front of him.
[The large scale mental magic, ‘Palace of Dreams,’ has devoured the entire Orca Kingdom!]
[Users won’t be able to use their character unless the Palace of Dreams is resolved!]
[The powerful mental magic and magic of death has consumed you. Be careful!]
[You have resisted.]
“......”
Drain read the messages and tried to figure out what was going on.
“It was definitely when I finished my clothes and shoes...”
Not long ago, his brother secretly sent him Belphegor’s horns and bones. He was going to use them and leather to make a cooking suit as a gift. The materials were extremely precious and he had to pay close attention, so Drain sweated as he sewed through the day and night.
It happened when he was rejoicing in the completion of the cooking suit. Suddenly, a dull light struck as if devouring the world. It was literally at the speed of light. It happened in just a moment. Drain passed out with his eyes closed tightly and it was like this when he woke up.
“I resisted? How did I...?”
His question was soon answered from the following messages.
[You have a high mental power.]
[Currently you have items in your hands that are resistant to demonic energy and the power of death.]
[After a few hours, you will wake up.]
“Ah...” Drain nodded slowly.
Mental power was one of the stats that was improved by constantly making clothes. A designer’s job needed a high workmanship stat but it also required a high degree of concentration so his mental strength was relatively high. Drain hadn’t neglected making clothes for a single day after starting Arkstar, so his mental power and workmanship were unmatched. He could call himself a craftsman even among the designers of the Orca Kingdom.
“So what is resistant to demonic energy and the power of death...?”
Only then did Drain remember what he was holding right before he collapsed. It was the cooking suit he was so pleased with that he called it the best work of his life. His guess was correct.
[Demon King of Sloth Belphegor’s Cooking Suit Top - Set]
[Rating: Myth
Durability: 5,000/5,000 Defense: 890
All stats +30.
Demon King Belphegor was originally a taurus. He has skin as hard as gold and there is no one with a stronger defense. His leather has been corrupted by demonic energy and the power of death so it now has a very high resistance to them.
-Very high probability of resisting demonic energy and the power of death.
-Negates various fire-based magic attacks.
+This is an item with a set effect.
Once all set items are worn, a special effect will be triggered.
-Can activate ‘Taurus’ Will’ which reduces various physical and magic attacks by 90%.]
“Huhuhu, it is fantastic...”
Drain let out a low and satisfied laugh. It was the first piece of clothing he made to have a myth rating. Drain realized that his hardships weren’t in vain and looked at the shoes. For reference, the shoes were made of leather, but the heels of the shoes were Belphegor’s horns and bones. There were also some hooves mixed in.
[Demon King of Sloth Belphegor’s Cooking Suit Shoes - Set]
[Rating: Myth
Durability: 5,000/5,000 Defense: 460
Attack Power: 1280-2270
All stats +30.
Made from the horns and bones of Demon King Belphegor who was a taurus. It is also a pair of shoes made of a new mineral after grinding his hard hooves. The blacksmiths of the Orca Kingdom named this mineral ‘Aldebaranium’ after Aldebaran, the former name of the demon king.
-Skill: ‘Lazy Feet Clouds’ can be activated.
+This is an item with a set effect.
Once all set items are worn, a special effect will be triggered.
-Can activate ‘Taurus’ Will’ which reduces various physical and magic attacks by 90%.]
“Oh mai gosh...” He almost screamed. The ability of the shoes was really ridiculous. In particular, the Lazy Feet Clouds attached to the shoes could create a natural disaster called an earthquake. Drain was very proud when he imagined his brother fighting with this.
“Ah, that’s it...”
Drain was reminded of something when he saw the shoes. It was that the blacksmiths of the Orca Kingdom were making swords out of the mineral called Aldebaranium. It was something his brother personally requested because he had people to gift it to. Well, that wasn’t important right now.
“Outside right now...”
Drain lifted the curtains and looked outside.
“Wat da...”
A curse almost emerged from his mouth.

Meanwhile...
I was saying goodbye to Santa Claus.
“You really don’t want to come with me?”
[Yes, I’ve lived a long time. In the meantime, I’ve developed too much affection for the North Pole. It was shortly after the death of Gaia, the original god. According to her will, I gave out gifts for the poor every Christmas. I’m very satisfied with my current life. Hohoho!]
“...It can’t be helped.”
[Huhu. Don't be too sad. Now that the tundra dragon has passed away, I have no choice but to protect the North Pole. I have to keep this place. Groan. The demonization has started so we have to hurry.]
“Um, there is this.”
A short time after I found the Star Fruits, a powerful demonic energy rose little by little in the vicinity of the ice castle. Demonization had begun. A countless number of bizarre demons crossed over and we had fled on the sleigh to the empty field far away from the ice castle.
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ understands Santa Claus’ meaning.]
[The third apostle, ‘Atlas,’ is nodding.]
Santa Claus looked up at the sky.
[The fourth apostle, ‘Santa Claus,’ says to just tell him if you need help.]
It was the end. Santa Claus left us like this. He gave me a small ice jewel before leaving and told me to cherish it. I could use it to summon him at any time. In any case, Park Maksun and I were left in the snow along with James.
“What do we do now?”
At James’ question, I glanced at him. Then I pulled out a hair tie and tied up my hair. “Once we go back to Metheus...”
[A whisper has arrived from Drain.]
“Wait a minute."
I gestured for James to wait and opened the whisper window.
-Drain:Buroder,help me.
-Jackson:Huh?Explain it to me.
In a whisper, Drain explained his current situation simply and clearly. He said that he had been making clothes at the mansion. He barely escaped being exiled when King Leonardo issued the expulsion of immortal humans due to his connection with the duke. Suddenly, the magic ‘Palace of Dreams’ began and the culprit was...
-Jackson:Satan did it?
-Drain:Yes!It is completely crazy here!NPCs outside are bowing and worshipping Satan. They are also setting fire to buildings!I think they will reach where I am soon.People are running while screaming horribly. Shit!Why are they like zombies!
Drain expressed his anger and agitation. On the other hand, I sighed deeply. Satan Claus left and now the real Satan appeared.
-Jackson:Wait.I heard my granddaughter is going there now.I will contact her.
-Drain:U-Understood!I’ll be waiting!
Then I sent a whisper to Mido explaining Drain’s circumstances.
-Mido:Gasp, what should I do?I just left to save Monet.It is a place called Dark Moon.On the way to the Orca Kingdom, Monet sent a request for help.That’s why I left with the Icarus oppas and some of the constellations.There seems to be a hidden secret passage?
Shit. It was bad. By the way, was there a secret passage to Dark Moon on the way to the Orca Kingdom? This was the first time I knew about it. Whoops, this wasn’t the time.
-Jackson:I understand.Be careful.I heard there is a demon king there as well.
-Mido:Yes, I will.Ah, right.Can you send me Chunza if you feel sorry?As I am wandering around, I have seen many statues that resemble Chunza.I’m wondering if she might help.
Come to think of it, the Dark Moon where Mido was now at was a place where the moon was always floating. I remembered that the vampires and dokkaebi were fighting for power, but I didn’t know if this was still the case. Anyway, they worshipped the moon so I thought it was natural for them to admire the moon goddess Hecatiana and the Lechuza.
It was as Mido said. It might be useful to have Chunza there. Since there was a teleport function, I could also go to help if Mido was in danger.
-Jackson:I’ll send her to you soon.
-Mido:Thank you, Grandfather!Apologize to Grandfather Drain for me.Oh, perhaps you can contact Uncle Seokdu and Sister Sujeong?They are on their way there.Maybe they can help.
-Jackson:I will do so.Thank you.
-Mido:No.I love you,Grandfather~!
-Jackson:Hahaha.I love you too~ ♡
We ended the whisper with this confession of love. She was a lovelier granddaughter than anyone in the world. It would be good if all young people were like Mido and treated the elderly well. My Mido was by far the best. These days, young people didn’t want to be friendly to elderly people.
“Hum hum.”
I coughed a few times to clear my throat and then shouted at the sky.
“Chunzaaa~”
After a while, the space I was looking at gradually twisted and Chunza, who was now bigger than an adult eagle, appeared in the North Pole sky by crossing through space.
“Gurururuk—!”
The moment Chunza appeared, she made several circles in the air before landing here. I watched Chunza with a satisfied and loving smile...
Baaam!
“......”
She almost slammed into me. Chunza was frozen by the cold of the North Pole and fell in front of me in a frozen state. Chunza’s body shook and she gazed at me pathetically. “G-Guruk...”
“......”
Could I trust this child?
