A haze floated up and gathered to take the form of a human .
Yeon-woo tightly shut his mouth at what he saw .
The appearance of his brother that he had only seen through pictures was there . He had a bright smiling face that anyone would like, and the blue armor gave off a serious impression .
The shadow couldn’t think, but Yeon-woo felt like the shadow would call out his name any second .
[… . . Master . ]
“I know . Don’t worry . ”
Nemesis quietly called his name, as if he had read Yeon-woo’s mind .
He was trying to tell him not to become too emotional .
Yeon-woo swallowed, and nodded his head . But it wasn’t easy .
[The Cold-Blooded trait has been activated for an unknown reason . ]
[The Cold-Blooded trait has been activated for an unknown reason . ]
It was a face he hadn’t seen in years .
It was a face that he had tried desperately to look for but couldn’t find . It was the same face as his .
[00:27:59_83]
[00:27:59_82]
And the reason why he kept on feeling this way even though he knew it was just a shadow was probably because of how sorry he felt .
Until now, he thought that his brother had run away, and he had hated him for it .
That was why he left Korea . He no longer had any ties to the country . His father had died when they were young, and it had been a while since they cut off ties with their other relatives .
He hated all that .
Because he hated those traces of him, he decided to leave the country .
[00:19:02_31]
And he lived like there was no tomorrow there .
Looking back at it now, the reason why he left Korea simply might’ve been because he wanted to abandon the country .
It might’ve been because he wanted to go somewhere he could die .
So he went around like he was crazy . He didn’t have the will to live . He always took care of things by himself if it was dangerous .
And before he knew it, he was called ‘Crazy Dog . ’ It was because he didn’t let go of something once he got a hold of it .
When more time had passed, his nickname ‘Cain’ had gotten more famous, and people tried to scout him .
Though, his squad chief had looked at him sadly when that happened .
But he didn’t care about that .
He felt like he could only live if he moved like this . If he got a vacation, he would just be locked up in his room alone .
It was ridiculous .
But when he thought of his mother’s last words, he couldn’t die like that . Her words protected him like a lucky charm .
-Until your brother returns, save his spot .
That was why he left the house his family used to live in back in Korea .
But .
Unlike his mother’s wishes, it was just there .
[00:10:07_83]
Yeon-woo slowly swept his hair up with his hand and took a deep breath, taking off his mask . A face that looked the same as the shadow appeared .
Like looking at a mirror, the two looked at each other’s faces .
The two were quiet .
The shadow couldn’t speak anyway, and Yeon-woo quietly looked at the shadow . He wanted to keep it in his memory for a bit longer . At times like this, he was ever so grateful that he had a good memory .
[00:05:55_10]
No one could speak .
Even the constantly loud Shanon, the advising Hanryeong, and the observing Rebecca . Nemesis, Nike, Boo, and the Monster Portents all read Yeon-woo’s mind and helped him to organize his thoughts .
Shanon, Hanryeong, and Rebecca were all completely taken aback .
Yeon-woo hadn’t told Shanon and Hanryeong about his backstory until now .
But because they had seen Yeon-woo’s face a few times and felt his mind when he climbed the Tower, they could somewhat assume .
However, comparing his face with Cha Jeong-woo just like that surprised them again .
Heaven Wing . He had once caused uproar in the tower, and it seemed like he had come back . Seeing the brothers walk together like that, the amount of Yeon-woo’s progress was just surprising .
And they felt something tear inside of them .
Seeing the appearance of the older brother who followed his younger brother into the Tower was pitiful to them .
Rebecca shut her lips and looked at Yeon-woo worriedly .
(00:02:47_35]
Yeon-woo thought that the 30 minutes he was given was too short .
He just wanted to sit there, looking at his younger brother . Even though he knew it was just a shadow, he couldn’t help but stare at him .
He purposely didn’t use Time Difference to help him think faster . He just wanted to organize his thoughts with the time given by the world .
But now, he had to look away .
[00:00:58_21]
Time continued to pass, and the people who followed him were waiting for him .
Then, Yeon-woo slowly stood up . He lightly dusted off the dust on his bottom and pulled out Vigrid from Intrenian .
[Did you? Organize your thoughts?]
Then, Nemesis broke the silence .
“Yeah . A bit . ”
[You have succeeded in maintaining your calmness with the trait ‘Cold Blooded . ’]
[You have succeeded in escaping from the ‘Confused’ state . ]
As the trait was applied, his complicated mind became clearer . He also felt refreshed, like he had just woken up .
“You must be out of it too . Sorry . ”
[It couldn’t be as much as you . ]
Nemesis brushed it off like he was okay, but Yeon-woo knew that it wasn’t true, because they were connected . He was also feeling confused right now too . However, he was not showing it .
[But you really are similar . Ha! The creator of the 21st floor is quite horrible . No matter how I look at it . ]
“I agree . ”
[And it seems like the data that he had was input exactly like it was . If even his abilities to speak were… . . ]
“It would be annoying . ”
When 30 seconds passed, Yeon-woo started up his Time Difference again .
However, he knew that the remaining time was too short to plan something .
Nemesis spoke up .
[First off . My past owner…Jeong-woo’s specialty was in quickly adjusting . ]
Yeon-woo nodded because he already knew that .
After his brother contracted with Kalatus after the 11th floor, he had continued to grow with the dragon’s blessing .
Unlike Yeon-woo, who had barely awakened his Dragon Body, his brother had quickly progressed through it .
It also had to do with the fact that he could freely control mana .
Thanks to that, his brother grew his magic power to an incomparable level .
He could move the path of mana around him, and he even created a skill called ‘Impassibility,’ which blocked off most magic power .
And because of this, others couldn’t even approach his brother .
When the power of the Mythical Dragon was added on top of that…all magicians had to avoid him . Even the priest . He didn’t get the title called Magic Massacrer for nothing .
‘The funny thing was that he wasn’t limited at all with this skill . ’
It only blocked off magic from the outside .
He could do triple casting, which only high rankers could do, and his understanding of spells was deep as well .
Alchemy, mechanical magic, spirits, summoning…
And when he did his Magic Equip, his body became stronger as well .
When the blessing of the dragon was combined with the blessing of mana, the efficiency of the mana couldn’t be put into words .
He could also fight with all types of battling methods .
The only thing his brother couldn’t do was Aura .
But that didn’t mean he was unskilled in martial arts either . Because the born warrior Valebich had kept on nagging him, he was able to learn the basic skills .
The ‘basic skills’ in this case was actually the skills of the born warrior giant species . Even if it wasn’t as much as the One-horned tribe’s Mugong, it was able to be used on most players .
He had the magic, talents, martial arts, and blessings . Because he was skilled in various fields, no one who was on the similar floors as him could look down on him .
Even rankers avoided him .
Also .
The most troubling part was… . .
‘Sky Wings . That’s the problem . ’
The unique skill that given him the name Heaven Wing, was troubling .
Through the authorities and blessings his brother received through the Draconic species, he had made this cheat skill himself after a lot of trial and error .
While the Sky Wings were active, he could use a part of Kalatus’s powers .
Also, because he could move freely in the air and the wings could be used in various methods, he could use them as a shield or weapon .
Yeon-woo’s wings of fire were actually based on those .
But unlike the clear limitations of the wings of fire, his brother’s Sky Wings had been acknowledged by the system .
The numbering that was given was 002 .
They couldn’t even be prepared .
That was why everyone called his brother a genius .
He had reached a level that was almost impossible to reach in just several years, and this might’ve been the reason why he was able to threaten the Nine Kings .
And on the 21st floor, his power had begun to bloom . This was clear since even the rank of the last dragon, the Summer Queen, had been pushed back .
[Also . The awakening… . . ]
“Is possible up to the 2nd step . ”
[Correct . ]
Yeon-woo still hadn’t been able to pass the 1st step, Dragonic Blood, but his brother had already passed the 2nd step, Pressure, and was heading towards the 3rd step .
Since he completely finished the 3rd step on the 22nd floor, he had probably only used the 2nd step here .
But Yeon-woo couldn’t be relieved because his brother had perfectly mastered the 2nd step .
[Are you confident?]
Nemesis asked in a concerned voice .
He asked like he was trying to tell Yeon-woo it was okay to ask for their help .
The Monster Portents and the spirits were technically all Yeon-woo’s skills .
There would be no problem if he used them .
Also, Yeon-woo had gotten here without a lot of rest, so he was pretty tired .
However .
“Should I tell you something?”
Yeon-woo smirked and slowly spoke .
He didn’t wear his mask . Since there weren’t any eyes around, he wanted to fight with his brother with his bare face .
[What?]
“You know—”
Intrenian opened, and 7 pieces of Aegis soared out to swirl around him . Dragon scales popped up from his chest .
Territory Announcement .
As the first step authority opened, his body received more strength .
“—I’ve never lost to my little brother before . ”
And with that, he stopped his Time Difference . The counter quickly decreased .
[00:00:00_01]
[00:00:00]
[The preparation time has been finished . The trial of the 30th section is beginning . ]
Then, the invisible wall disappeared .
His brother’s shadow awakened his authority and spread his Sky Wings . It was like an angel had come down to the ground . The pure white wings flapped with explosions of magic power .
It became hail, and it covered the sky of the stage .
Dragonic Pressure .
On the other hand, the power that was called Draconic Murderous Intent began to approach Yeon-woo to trap him . It looked similar to the constraint of the 20th floor .
Looking at the magic storm, Yeon-woo cynically murmured .
“But wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I lose now?”
