Rachel explained enthusiastically, using hand and foot gestures.

“That’s how it happened!”

“Hmm.”

After hearing the whole story, Choi Hyun-seok was lukewarm about it.

He spoke with a suspicious expression.

“You’re not lying, are you?”

“I’m telling you I’m not! I, Rachel, heard everything that rat bastard said myself!”

Rachel said, straightening her shoulders proudly.

From what he had observed of Rachel so far, this was genuine.

This was her pose when she was very proud and bragging about something.

Choi Hyun-seok fell into thought again.

‘It’s quite possible.’

Given the circumstances, Rachel’s words are likely to be true.

Because it would resolve all the lingering doubts that had remained.

Rotark’s anger that was glimpsed in front of Hemis.

Yet the excessive kindness shown to himself.

It seemed too much to be simply because of Hemis’s orders or the demon’s covenant.

If, as Rachel says, Rotark is plotting something else, all these questions would be resolved.

‘He’s probably giving generously since it will all fall into his hands anyway.’

The bastard had been waiting patiently.

For the day when everything would fall into his hands.

“Rachel. If Park Hyun-a and that rat bastard join forces, even the lip monster wouldn’t stand a chance, right?”

“I think so. No matter how strong the lip monster is, it would be too much against two Corps Commanders.”

From experience, he knows that Hemis is stronger than other Corps Commanders.

From Choi Hyun-seok’s perspective, they’re all monsters exceeding 200,000 in combat power.

But among them, there is still a hierarchy of sorts.

Nevertheless, to the question ‘Could Hemis win against two Corps Commanders?’ – there had to be doubts.

Honestly, the possibility didn’t seem very high.

As his thoughts continued, Choi Hyun-seok’s expression darkened.

“That rat bastard… I had a bad feeling about him from the start.”

“Hero, what should we do? We need to quickly tell the lip monster about this.”

“There’s no way right now. If we say we’re going back to the Black Giant Star at this timing, it will only raise suspicion.”

Choi Hyun-seok’s treatment was progressing smoothly, and he had achieved tremendous growth.

What would they think if he suddenly said he was going back?

Especially in this situation where they’ve just revealed the plot to attack Hemis?

It’s obvious they would be suspicious.

He couldn’t take on such a risk.

If he wasn’t careful, he might be imprisoned before he could do anything.

Or have his skull opened right there.

“For now, we can’t show any signs that we’ve noticed something. We need to act natural like we have been.”

“And then what?”

“I’ll have to think about that more.”

Choi Hyun-seok ponders.

How can he convey this crisis to Hemis?

Then something flashed in his mind.

“Rachel. That communication orb thing. Can you use it?”

“No. That operates with magic power.”

“Then what about me?”

If the communication orb operates with magic power, could he use it?

Rachel shook her head.

“It’s not just about injecting magic power. There’s quite a complex process involved. It’s absolutely impossible for you right now, Hero.”

“So communication is impossible… What should we do?”

Even after thinking for a long time, no answer was in sight.

There was absolutely no way to contact Hemis.

‘Then I need to find what I can do here and now.’

Choi Hyun-seok decided to change his direction of thought.

Could he find a way out of this situation by himself?

What weapons does he have?

What are the enemy’s weaknesses?

The contemplation continues.

“Haa, this is fucked up.”

“Why?”

“No matter how much I think, I can’t come up with a solution.”

“Hero. Instead of racking your barely functioning brain, let’s keep it simple!”

Choi Hyun-seok stared at Rachel.

His eyes asked what she meant.

“Hero. Listen to this!”

Rachel made a chilling expression.

“If it’s obvious someone’s going to stab me in the back, what would you do?”

Suddenly talking about stabbing.

After being momentarily surprised by such violent vocabulary.

After pondering, Choi Hyun-seok opened his mouth.

“I’d have to beat them up before they can stab me?”

“That’s it!”

“Huh?”

“Before we get backstabbed, let’s stab them first.”

It was the moment a killing intent was loaded in Rachel’s mind.

***

Chief Researcher Radke.

Like other researchers here, he’s from the Skevin clan and has a rat-like appearance.

Radke was one of the promising researchers at the Magic Tower.

He was in charge of a part of the core project, Chimera research, having earned Legion Commander Rotark’s trust.

“Squeak squeak! Today is going smoothly too.”

A smile appeared on Radke’s face.

The recently stalled Chimera research was making rapid progress.

This was because Rotark, the master of the Magic Tower, had obtained good data.

‘Choi Hyun-seok, was it? For a human, he’s quite a useful test subject!’

While helping with Choi Hyun-seok’s treatment, Rotark was extracting data in his own way.

The whole Magic Tower was buzzing with energy as new systems and concepts that didn’t exist before were being introduced.

‘I wonder what results we’ll get when we properly research Choi Hyun-seok! Squeak squeak!’

They haven’t properly researched Choi Hyun-seok yet.

Just a tiny amount of data that could be obtained through observation.

Even with just that, it brought great results to existing research.

He was already excited about what data would come out when they begin full-scale experiments.

Just then, with a zhing- sound, the automatic door behind Radke opened.

At the same time, Radke smirked.

‘Speak of the devil!’

The one who appeared was Choi Hyun-seok.

He was wearing oddly shaped goggles and was looking around as if searching for something.

“What’s the matter. This isn’t a place you should enter.”

The place where Radke was located was where core materials for Chimera research were stored.

Namely, magic power ampules.

Not ordinary magic power ampules, but ampules containing highly concentrated magic power from special magical beasts.

They even stored many from already extinct magical beasts.

There were even magic power ampules from Mortenebra, known as a legendary magical beast.

These were invaluable resources essential for Chimera research, so they couldn’t be handled carelessly.

“Didn’t I come here before with Lord Rotark?”

This wasn’t the first time Choi Hyun-seok had visited this place.

Shortly after he came to the Magic Tower.

Rotark took Choi Hyun-seok around various places, saying he’d show him the Magic Tower, and this place was one of them.

“Lord Rotark told me to bring some magic power ampules that he showed me then. He said there’s something to check.”

“What…?”

Radke’s eyes narrowed.

Bring the magic power ampules?

It sounded plausible, but there was a problem.

“He told you to do that?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm…”

To have these precious ampules brought by Choi Hyun-seok, who was practically an outsider, and a human at that?

It was suspicious.

Radke, who had been staring at Choi Hyun-seok, sighed.

“Squeak squeak! Wait a moment. I’ll confirm directly with Lord Rotark.”

“That won’t be necessary.”

“What do you mean?”

“You. Your combat power is only 10,000?”

“Huh?”

In an instant, a thick forearm wrapped around Radke’s neck.

Choi Hyun-seok had grabbed Radke’s neck.

“Squeak, squeak…!”

He couldn’t breathe.

Radke’s face quickly turned red.

Unlike other Demon King’s Army units, the Magic Tower’s hierarchy wasn’t determined by force.

Even as a chief researcher, his personal combat ability was meager.

With combat power of 10,000, he couldn’t handle Choi Hyun-seok’s strength.

“If you’re weak, you get beaten?”

“Squeak…! Squeak…!”

Soon Radke lost consciousness.

Choi Hyun-seok grinned.

“Kid. Should’ve just let me pass nicely.”

“How dare a rat bastard try to block Hero’s way!”

Rachel, who had appeared at some point, punched the unconscious Radke’s nose bridge.

“Is this it…”

After putting several more researchers to sleep.

Choi Hyun-seok and Rachel arrived at their destination where the magic power ampules were displayed.

Though it was right before the operation’s success, Choi Hyun-seok’s expression was somewhat uneasy.

“Rachel. Are you sure this is okay?”

“Of course it’s not okay!”

“Don’t say that with such a bright smile.”

“Think of it lightly. We won’t die, right?”

“Right. We won’t die.”

Choi Hyun-seok raised his fist and broke the glass box containing the highly concentrated magic power ampules.

Crash!

The glass shattered and he grabbed all the precious ampules at once.

“I’ll survive somehow. This is for my survival.”

He grinned.

His eyes were gleaming with madness after a long time.

“And to become stronger.”

Choi Hyun-seok opened the ampules.

Simultaneously, terrible magic power spread in all directions.

“And finally, to stab that detestable rat bastard in the back.”

Choi Hyun-seok drank the magic power ampules right there.

***

Recently, Rotark had been in a good mood.

Partly because collecting data from Choi Hyun-seok was quite enjoyable.

But the real reason was his anticipation for what was to come.

‘An ancient monster and a mutant hero… I can’t wait to dissect them. Squeak squeak!’

He needed to finish Choi Hyun-seok’s treatment as soon as possible and get the demon’s covenant back from Hemis.

Then, after ambushing Hemis together with Park Hyun-a, everything would be over.

Though the Demon king’s permission hadn’t come through yet, it didn’t matter.

Rotark estimated the probability of the Demon king’s approval at over 90%.

Anyway, the point is that Rotark was in a very good mood.

Until five minutes ago.

“Squeak, squeak! What is this!!!”

Rotark’s shout echoed throughout the Magic Tower.

“Th-that, we don’t know what happened either…”

“We felt a sudden surge of magic power and rushed here immediately, but it was already too late.”

In the Chimera Research Wing, which occupied the largest space in the Magic Tower’s basement.

Something unbelievable had happened in the important area where magic power ampules were stored.

“Ampules that can never be obtained again…!”

All the precious materials had disappeared.

Into Choi Hyun-seok’s stomach, no less.

Among the unconscious researchers, Choi Hyun-seok could be seen writhing on the floor.

“Kuh, kuhek…! Kihek!”

His eyes were rolled back, and unable to control the magic power, his skin repeatedly bulged up and down.

It looked as if countless insects were crawling under his skin.

Around him were empty glass bottles rolling around, each one had contained very rare magic power ampules.

‘What were you thinking doing something like this! Squeak squeak!’

Was he trying to commit suicide?

Even though they’re all magic power, each individual’s properties are different.

The magic power here was all extracted from dangerous magical beasts.

Moreover, being highly concentrated, the quantity was enormous.

This meant it was absolutely not magic power that Choi Hyun-seok could handle.

Yet he drank not just one, but five of them.

Left like this, his body would melt and he would die within minutes.

“Ngg! That absolutely cannot happen!”

Rotark would save Choi Hyun-seok no matter what.

Because it wasn’t just about Choi Hyun-seok alone.

Magic power concentrate that can never be obtained again.

Of the five ampules Choi Hyun-seok swallowed, three were from extinct beings that could never be obtained again, and among them was even one from Mortenebra, called a legendary magical beast.

That was as precious as Choi Hyun-seok himself.

If Choi Hyun-seok dies here?

All of this would disappear.

“Live…! No, I’ll make you live! Squeak!”

He must save him.

He would save him somehow and make him digest all that magic power.

And then he would obtain all the data.

In Rotark’s determined eyes, madness for the ultimate material was flowing.
