As they listened to Junhyuk, they all frowned. Gongon was the first to speak up.
“We are about to become legends! You can’t leave now.”
Junhyuk laughed and replied, “I’m not thinking about it.”
“This is hurting my pride. Why didn’t they offer it to me?”
“It’s because my power is special.”
“Ha-ha-ha! I’m just kidding.”
“I’m just telling you what happened.”
“Sure. I’m going back to work.”
“Right.”
Gongon cut off communications, so Elise spoke up, “There are benefits. Aren’t you enticed by those?”
Elise was speaking in Korean, and Junhyuk laughed at her choice of words.
“I don’t want to live forever and I can buy my own items. Sure, the monster waves will stop, but we just need one more hero.”
“Right.”
“And I can teleport anywhere now, so I’m not worried about the waves.”
Elise smiled and said, “I have a favor to ask.”
“What is it?”
“I’ve been learning magical engineering with Gongon, but he has gone far ahead of me, and that has hurt my pride. Can I get some cores?”
“Of course!”
Junhyuk had given Gongon all of the used up cores, which lacked some energy, but he gave Elise ten fully charged cores.
“Do you need more?”
“These will be enough. They are all full.”
“What are you making?”
“I’m not in a hurry. I need to focus on the battlefield, but there is something I will build.”
“Sure.”
Junhyuk had finally managed to control all of the Harmonizer energy within him and become much stronger, but the others needed to become stronger as well. Elise could do that through magical engineering.
“Big brother, give me a core as well.”
“Why do you need one?”
“Even without magical engineering, I can craft a magical weapon with a core.”
“A magical weapon?”
“Yes. I’ll extract the necessary energy from it. With the weapon, I won’t fear monster waves anymore.”
Junhyuk gave her a core and said, “Don’t overdo it. Focus on the battlefield.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll only make the blueprint for now.”
Sarang said goodbye and left, and Junhyuk returned to the training facility. He spent a day there training before Agenchra visited him again.
Time stopped, and Agenchra appeared. Junhyuk, who had been waiting for him, smiled.
“Did you feel me coming?”
“You left a trace when you crossed through the dimensional wall.”
Junhyuk could feel and see things he couldn’t before, and Agenchra was stunned.
“You are still evolving. You are more than qualified to become a manager. Are you joining us?”
Junhyuk shook his head and said, “I don’t want to be a manager.”
“Won’t you reconsider?”
Junhyuk asked decidedly, “Who is the next team leader of the monster administration team?”
“That’s top secret information, but I’ll tell you. Soren will be the next team leader of that department.”
“Soren? Who is he?”
“He’s just been promoted, so I don’t know much about him.”
“I need to get a feel for him, right?”
“Yes. The monster waves will start a week from now.”
“OK.”
“You aren’t joining us?”
“No.”
Agenchra smacked his lips and replied, “Too bad. Whenever you change your mind, just let me know. The offer is always on the table for you.”
“I’ll remember that.”
Agenchra was gone, and Junhyuk explained what happened to ELise. He didn’t know anything about Soren, but there would be a wave a week from now, so he could train in the meantime.
Friday came around, and Junhyuk was pulled into the viewing room for the Champions’ Battlefield. Ariel spoke first.
[I heard you can become a manager.]
“Yeah.”
[Why did you turn down the offer?]
“Just because.”
Ariel’s eyes beamed and she said, [That’s my dream job, and you refused.]
“You are working towards becoming a manager?”
[I’m a contractor, so my position is unofficial right now.]
“That must be hard.”
If Junhyuk became a manager, he would acquire high-tier items and become immortal. On top of that, he would be able to travel through dimensions and stop time. Ariel was jealous of him, but Junhyuk know the managers all too well after what Eltor had done to Earth. That was why he didn’t want to take the job.
“Can we start the viewing?”
[Right!]
Junhyuk watched Ling Ling’s fight. Ling Ling was very experienced and skilled now, but she wasn’t a hero yet. Still, he was glad that she won.
After taking the winnings, Junhyuk returned to Earth.
“There’s only a week left now.”
Junhyuk only had a week before the final round, so he sighed heavily.
—
Junhyuk had to use Harmonizer for his Dimensional Shift, so Harmonizer had become easy to control. However, he still needed more time to perfect his use of it.
Junhyuk pushed his will on Harmonizer, confident that he had made it his, and slowly opened his eyes. The world looked different to him now.
Junhyuk had nearly lost his human body from the amount of energy he had absorbed, but because of that, his perspective of the world had also changed. He could sense more things at a sharper level.
He could see everything that composed the world, so he activated Harmonizer and looked at his hand. Previously, crossing the dimensional wall had been a difficult process, but now, it was different.
His hand pushed through the dimensional work. He didn’t select a set of coordinates, and only his hand crossed over.
There was a special space beyond the wall where Junhyuk could rest for a short time, a type of in between dimension He made a fist and pulled out his hand.
Junhyuk could cross the dimensional wall at will now, so he thought his other powers had to have changed as well. He summoned his swords and swung them around.
Only his Dimensional Slash had been able to slash cross dimensions before, but now, things were different. He stabbed normally, and his sword crossed through the dimensional wall. He didn’t know where he had stabbed though.
He swung his swords a few more times and smiled. Suddenly, he tightened his grip around his swords and turned around. Time had stopped, and someone was there.
The man was wearing armor, but underneath it, Junhyuk could see the bandages. His eyes beamed.
“Did you know I was coming?”
He stared at the person. Who was he? Junhyuk had never seen the person before.
“Who are you?”
THe person smiled and said, “I heard that you are quite rude from Eltor. He was right.”
Junhyuk stared at him. He could guess who the man was.
“The new team leader of the Monster Administration Department.”
“Correct. I’m Soren.”
“Why are you here?”
“I wanted to say hello.”
Junhyuk stared at Soren without saying anything.
“I heard you are qualified to be a manager.”
Junhyuk laughed and said, “I made it clear that I don’t want to be one.”
“I know. You spit at your own blessing. You are famous now.”
“A blessing to you managers.”
Soren shrugged and said, “I wanted to meet you.”
“Why?”
“I wanted to make sure the next monster wave works. I just want new heroes.”
“You wanted to gauge my power to know what monsters to loose.”
“Yes,” Soren answered curtly, and Junhyuk stared at the manager.
Soren was checking him and his powers out, but there was no way for him to know about Junhyuk’s items. However, Soren could see Harmonizer and the extent of his strength.
“This won’t be a pleasant meeting.”
Soren stared at him and said, “You are a hero. Why do you get angry about others suffering?”
“I’m angry with your bullshit behavior.”
Soren took a moment before saying, “The previous manager didn’t work according to the rules, so I’m here to apologize. We don’t need to talk again. A monster wave will trigger in the next 24 hours. After that, they will trigger at regular intervals every 168 hours.”
Soren told him about the timing of the waves, which was unprecedented. Now that he knew the times, Junhyuk could get ready.
“You aren’t a manager, so you’ll need another hero. Don’t try to stop the waves on your own.”
“That’s my decision to make.”
Soren smirked and said, “See you later.”
Junhyuk didn’t want to see the manager again, but he didn’t say that. Soren was gone, and he turned to his swords. While talking to Soren, Junhyuk had noticed his own changes.
Soren was not there anymore, but Junhyuk could see an afterimage of the manager. Because of that, he could tell where Soren really was. He could see Soren’s location beyond the dimensional wall.
He still couldn’t read random coordinates, but he could read where Soren was.
Junhyuk didn’t want to fight the manager, but if there was a need for it, he would kill Soren next time.
