‘I must somehow achieve what Lee Seo-ha has spoken about.’
The Electronic Witch thought.
Although Lee Seo-ha and she seemed to be on equal footing, the truth was a vertical relationship.
Lee Seo-ha looked at her as an equal, but someday, this relationship would collapse.
‘A physical body in reality…’
The Electronic Witch abandoned everything to become a spirit in the electronic world.
She did not regret it. Even if she could turn back time, the Electronic Witch would have done the same.
She had no choice.
However, there were times when a physical body was needed in reality. She playfully told Lee Seo-ha it was for gourmet hunting, but the Electronic Witch truly felt happy.
She never knew tasting could bring such happiness. Forgotten desires began to resurface, from appetite to the desire to wear clothes.Unlike her previous life, it was a body focused on ‘beauty.’
Heroes, influenced by mana, had bodies that were incredibly ‘balanced.’ It was synonymous with harmony and beauty.
She felt the stares as she passed by on the street. It was thrilling.
Every time she felt it, she realized she could never betray Lee Seo-ha.
“So…”
She listened carefully to what Lee Seo-ha said. The Electronic Witch did not trust the human heart. Nothing was as fickle as it.
That’s why she put her heart and soul into spreading the video.
But, one thing the Electronic Witch overlooked.
“Eh, what?”
The speed of the spread was beyond imagination.
The world changed when I woke up.
I was experiencing it firsthand.
“…What is this?”

I rubbed my eyes briefly. Over 50 million views in less than 24 hours.
Was this a dream?
With a dazed expression, I drew out Black Heaven.
-Hmm? Why have you drawn me out, Master?
After pulling out the sword from the void.
-Haaaaaaa♡
I cleaned Black Heaven.
Hmm, not a dream.
-It’s not a dream, Seo-ha!
At Eternal Heaven’s word, I looked at Black Heaven. Black Heaven was sulking in the corner, looking depressed.
-But why do you moan so loudly just from being cleaned as a sword spirit…
-You, you don’t understand! How good it feels to be touched by the Master!
-Oh, forget it. You’ve already been labeled a pervert who moans like someone in a love hotel when Seo-ha touches your sword spirit.
-Eek!
Black Heaven glared at Eternal Heaven. I confirmed it wasn’t a dream and fell into thought.
“I’ve become too famous.”
At this rate, I might be recognizable by many in Korea. The mask had distinctive features too.
Sighing inwardly, I took out the Mask of Deception.
The left eye part was shattered in yesterday’s fight.
“It’s a bit awkward to ask the dean.”
Because of my position as a student.
And the moment I leave it with the dean, the Emperor will know I was the Masked Man.
“It sounds strange to call myself the Masked Man.”
It felt like I was being invited somewhere. Anyway, I checked out of the hotel I had booked and went outside.
I stepped onto the street.
Thanks to the recognition-disabling magic on my coat, I didn’t feel people’s stares much. If it’s not a fight like yesterday, I should be able to reach my destination safely.
While heading to my destination, I saw a café.
“Maybe I should grab something to wake me up.”
As I was about to order an iced Americano to clear my head, I noticed a strange menu item.
[Hot Iced Americano - 10,000 won]
Could such a menu item exist?
I thought, but it was real.
“This is the alchemy taught by Master Veritas!”
A person who looked like a barista used magic tuning to coexist hot and cold water. Then, they dissolved coffee beans in the hot water and poured it.
“Is it really hot and cold?”
“Haha! This is the alchemy (not really) taught by Master Veritas!”
Unbelievable.
I calmly took a cold brew coffee to go and stepped outside.
I walked along the street.
Beep beep!
A car horn sounded. I saw a slender, yellow sports car. A tall woman at the steering wheel was looking at me.
“Hey, handsome guy over there? Want to go for a drive with me?”
“Me?”
“Yes, where else is there a handsome guy like you around here?”
I glanced at the woman. She was tall and attractive. However, compared to Seo Ye-bin, Hong Yu-hwa, Kim Ara, or Ershil, whom I had seen, she wasn’t as appealing.
“…Or maybe not.”
I activated True Heart and looked at the woman. She was an illustration I had seen once, a member of The Brigade of Eternal Heaven, seen operating outside.
“…I’m not interested.”
“Really? Isn’t that good enough? I’m not usually like this, but I really like you.”
“I have a girlfriend.”
I casually responded, thinking hard.
Was The Brigade of Eternal Heaven starting to move? That woman was not someone who gets involved unless necessary.
“At least five.”
If she’s here, that’s the minimum number of members of The Brigade of Eternal Heaven that would gather.
In other words, there would be at least five beings of higher than ordinary strength.
“Are they really planning to take on The Overlord?”
If that happens, I’ll be the one in danger.
The Witch Maiden told me that The Brigade of Eternal Heaven wants to kidnap me and negotiate with The Overlord.
And those Nazi guys might join in too.
The situation might be more dangerous than I thought.
Staying holed up in the Korean Hero School might be one way, but it doesn’t suit my nature.
“I need to find out.”
I tapped on the name Seo Ye-bin in my contacts and pressed call.
“Huh.”
The woman who had just been rejected by Lee Seo-ha chuckled to herself.
No interest, huh? That was a refreshingly new reaction.
“Hmm, I don’t think this appearance is bad.”
The woman muttered to herself, remembering the man’s looks. His appearance was really to her taste.
She even wanted to show her true form and tempt him.
“Ah, would he run away then?”
Because she was notorious for her infamy, anyone with even a slight interest in heroes would certainly have heard her name.
“I regret that there’s no time.”
The leader of the organization to which she belonged saw punctuality as golden.
Especially since the vice-leader had recently been kidnapped, it was best to keep appointments as much as possible.
Leaving her regret behind, the woman drove to a factory site. She parked her car in front of an abandoned building and went inside.
Click-clack.
The woman took off her necklace, revealing her original form: pink-haired pupils and a black evening dress.
“You’ve finally arrived.”
“Look who’s here early, the whore?”
“What? Shut up, you ignorant fool.”
The woman, who was just called a whore, took a seat.
“Eight, huh.”
The Brigade of Eternal Heaven, eight of them. In other words, eight monstrous beings of superior strength were gathered here.
“Thank you all for responding to my call.”
The masked leader seated at the head spoke.
“Today, I’ve gathered you for a mission to rescue our vice-leader.”
“The vice-leader was captured by The Overlord.”
“Yes.”
“Don’t tell me, leader, you’re thinking of taking on The Overlord?”
“…No, fighting him is a last resort.”
Everyone in The Brigade of Eternal Heaven possessed superior strength.
And they had been in this world for quite some time, meaning most had met The Overlord, directly or indirectly.
“Leader, I’d like to rescue the vice-leader, too. But the opponent is The Overlord. A madman who killed the association’s chairman for having a slight connection to Mines or Villains!”
“Yes.”
The leader replied, interlocking his fingers.
The Overlord was a monster who had achieved transcendence alone. As his nickname suggests, he crushed and obliterated anything that stood in his way.
Yet, he remained unharmed.
The reason was one: overwhelming power that nothing could counter.
Mines, Heroes, and Villains.
In these categories, the Overlord was a monster who reigned supreme solely with his ‘strength’.
“Even the Overlord has his Achilles’ heel.”
The leader pulled out a photo.
A boy in a hoodie, blowing bubble gum, was visible.
“…Who’s this?”
“What, you know him?”
“No, he’s just my type.”
“I’ll handle this kid. He’s not for you guys.”
A man with blood-red eyes spoke.
“What, you lost to him too.”
“I was careless. But his power is abnormal.”
Harun silently responded to the woman with blue hair.
“His power, it negated mine. He’s not an ordinary kid. And his body. It’s the ultimate body that any martial artist would dream of.”
“You, are you gay?”
“Shut up, whore. Anyway, there are hardly any who can face him.”
“Don’t worry, Harun. I’ll step in.”
“…The leader?”
“Yes.”
The leader fiddled with Lee Seo-ha’s photo with his finger.
“I’ll capture him.”
“Wait.”
“What’s up, Seonghwi?”
Seonghwi, the woman with pink hair, stopped the leader.
“Can I step in?”
“…You?”
“Yes. He’s my type.”
“Hmm… Alright. As one who emerged from the Tower of Dreams, you should be able to subdue this boy quickly.”
“Of course.”
Seonghwi smiled confidently.
“My illusion magic is an advancement of Melanie Merchen’s legacy. I can easily leave a brat drooling.”
Seonghwi, a succubus from the Tower of Dreams, spoke with confidence.
