Chapter 283: The Girl’s SOS (2)
“Honey?”
Lee Chae-Rin, who was right next to Kang Chul-In, noticed a change in the air .
“Is there anything wrong?”
“No, nothing . ”
Kang Chul-In shook his head .
“Just a standard report . ”
“Doesn’t seem like it though?”
“You are being paranoid . ”
“Hmm . . . ”
Lee Chae-Rin narrowed her eyes and stared at Kang Chul-In .
Damn it, why does it have to be now!
Meanwhile, Kang Chul-In was struggling with conflicting ideas in his mind .
Amplifier Talisman? He certainly craved for it . He already owned the Overpower Bracelet . If he got his hands on the Amplifier Talisman, then he would have possession over two-thirds of the Trinity Impact set . Moreover, if he subjugated Brynhildr and took his Sonic Ring . . .
I would… truly become the strongest being in Pangaea .
Then, nobody could stop him for sure . A million enemy soldiers? He could annihilate them all with the Trinity Impact . He could be a living atomic bomb .
However, there was a problem .
If I leave this place . . .
His family would be disappointed .
“Honey . ”
At that moment, Lee Chae-Rin whispered in Kang Chul-In’s ear .
“Go . ”
“ . . . !”
“Mother-in-law, Ninetails, Skadi, Arshelly and me… none of us will be sad or disappointed, I’m very sure . ”
Sad or disappointed because the husband is busy? Or feeling lonely? Nonsense! That could certainly be possible for other families, but these were no ordinary ladies . As Kang Chul-In’s family members, they had to be prepared for such an occasion .
If not, how could they be together with Kang Chul-In, the ultimate ‘busy man’?
“M-Me too!”
Skadi suddenly appeared from nowhere .
“Your Majesty… is a busy man… but I’m not disappointed at all!”
She was timid, but expressed herself clearly .
“Mother-in-law!”
“Yes?”
“Mr . Chul-In has business to attend to in the other world!”
“Well, my son is a busy man indeed! Hohoho~! Tell him to go quickly!”
Park Sun-Ja was immune to any surprises .
“Husband~! All the best~!”
“Goodbye, daddy~! We will be waiting here~!”
Ninetails and Arshelly shared the same opinion .
Wow!
Kang Chul-In was deeply moved by his family’s response . Of course, he didn’t show it . How could a man reveal his emotions so hastily!?
“Mother . ”
Kang Chul-In spoke to Park Sun-Ja .
“I will be back . ”
“Sure~! Go ahead~! We will be waiting for you here . ”
“Yes . ”
Indeed, there was no need for him to be hesitant since he wasn’t leaving the place for good . Moreover, his family had a lot of time on their hands . They could tour around Earth’s various resorts for a month or two . When Kang Chul-In finally returned after work, they could travel again .
Kid . . .
Kang Chul-In began to make his way towards Pangaea .
What great timing . . .
Still, he couldn’t deny that it was a bad time for him to receive the call .

“O-oh my god, oh my god!”
Lily Sephardi glanced at the battlefield and walked around in circles anxiously .
The battle was one-sided .
Atal Ramanujan’s soldiers, led by Lee Ji-Tae, were advancing at an immense speed while annihilating her soldiers .
“Your Majesty, it’s not feasible to continue fighting!”
Her secretary, Rooibos, advised .
“I-I know… I know, but…!”
“Your Majesty, you have to call for a retreat!”
“But if we forfeit that place . . . !”
It had been three days since the start of the war . Her soldiers were currently fighting at a vital location in Zolushka . If she forfeited that place, her army had to retreat all the way back to Zolushka’s castle . They would then have to defend for their lives there as the final resort .
“Your Majesty, didn’t you contact the Supreme King of the West, Kang Chul-In? It’s wiser to first forfeit that land and enter a defensive mode . We can’t stop that many enemy soldiers alone!”
Rooibos spoke the truth . Atal Ramanujan had injected a staggering 60,000 soldiers to conquer Zolushka . Although they were poorly trained mobs with failing equipment, they could still dominate their enemy using sheer numbers . To top it all, Lee Gong-Myung was their commander-in-chief . Led by one of the greatest tacticians in Pangaea, the soldiers could fight to their maximum capabilities .
“Your Majesty, you have to trust Kang Chul-In!”
Rooibos urged Lily once again .
“He may be a cunning war-maniac, but I heard he is a man of his word . ”
“T-That’s right! Chul-In oppa was the one who taught me Sumire’s feelings!”
“Yes, Your Majesty . That’s right . The Supreme King of the West is a power-hungry devil, but he is not a dishonorable man . So, let’s trust him and retreat! At this rate, our whole army may be wiped out!”
Now was the right time to retreat .
Any more delay and Lily’s soldiers would not make it out alive .
“O-Okay!”
Finally, Lily decided to call for a retreat .
All men, retreat! Hurry!
“Your Majesty, you should leave too! This place will soon be taken over by the enemy as well!”
“R-Right!”
Lily also decided to retreat away from the battlefield .
Chul-In oppa .
There was no reply .
Come help us! Quick!
The only person who could turn the table was Kang Chul-In, the Supreme King of the West, the most evil and powerful Lord of all .

“Who!?”
Kang Chul-In roared angrily the moment he returned to Valhalla .
“Who dares to interrupt my vacation!?”
A thundering voice .
His rage was truly horrifying .
D-Damn it! I shouldn’t have told him!
Kwak Jung struggled to not collapse to his knees .
Flick, flicker!
Kang Chul-In was getting more terrifying by the day .
That tremendous burst of mana!
Kwak Jung, who was quite a strong explorer himself, could barely continue to stand .
“Hurry up and tell me . ”
“It’s… Atal Ramanujan . ”
Suddenly, a vein popped up on Kang Chul-In’s forehead .
“That coward?”
In the past, that man had hidden behind Alex Rothschild and Aleister and had witnessed Kang Chul-In’s death .
In other words, he was one of the three Lords who had attacked him when Valhalla was getting stomped on .
“Yes . Atal Ramanujan has conquered Itaracia, located at the Chamonix mountains . He is causing havoc in that girl’s territory now . ”
“Right, there was one last bastard left . How can I screw him up…? Just thinking about it already thrills me… hehe…!”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Nothing . ”
“ . . . ”
“Go on with your report . ”
“Ah, okay . . . ”
Kwak Jung couldn’t comprehend Kang Chul-In’s words and remained puzzled .
“Ahem, anyways, since Atal Ramanujan has conquered Itaracia, I would say his Northern Expedition has been extremely successful . In fact, the reason why Atal Ramanujan couldn’t climb up the ranks despite a huge population was due to the southern region’s weather and harsh terrains . Now that he has taken over Itaracia, he will try to advance to the central region of Baldur . ”
“Right . ”
“In other words, to prevent Atal Ramanujan from becoming the third superpower . . . ”
“I have to help this kid anyway, is that what you’re saying?”
“Yes . ”
It was killing two birds with one stone .
If Kang Chul-In wished for a Valhalla vs Gullveig Alliance situation, he had to eliminate the risk factor called Atal Ramanujan .
“The problem is . . . ”
“It’s too far?”
“Yes, it’s just too far . From the west of Ishtar to the south of Baldur… it’s honestly difficult . ”
“Hmm . . . ”
“It’s not feasible to send a large army across that distance . The supply route will also be extremely long, hence it’s impossible to drag the battle for more than a week . Hence, what I’m suggesting is . . . ”
“To send a small group of elite soldiers?”
“Keh! Your Majesty, you are quite a tactician yourself!”
“This is nothing . You are more amazing . ”
“Not at all . My brain works well thanks to your trust in my work!”
“Hahahahaha~!”
“Hehehe~!”
The king and his subject were scratching each other’s back .
“Alright, how long do you think the kid can hold?”
“About a week or so . ”
“Can we make it by then?”
“If we use Zeppelin and the warp gate, then it’s possible . ”
“Good . ”
Kang Chul-In nodded .
“Gather a group of elite mercenaries and send them to the kid’s territory . ”
“What about yourself, Your Majesty?”
“I . . . ”
Kang Chul-In replied .
“I will be there first . ”
He had to be there in case the Amplifier Talisman went missing .
“Ah, Your Majesty . ”
Kwak Jung added .
“What is it?”
“Kwak Jun, that bastard, got promoted to Vilhelm’s senior advisor . ”
“Hmm! That means . . . ”
“Yes, many things will change depending on how we handle that bastard . ”
“Can you do it?”
“Leave it to me!”
Confidence maketh a man .
Kwak Jung replied with a grin .
“Keh… good, very good . ”
Kang Chul-In nodded in satisfaction .
“That’s my tactician . ”
“Hehehe~!”
“Hahahaha~!”
They were scratching each other’s back once again .
***
“I, the ruler of Bifrost . . . ”
Vilhelm spoke .
“I, Overlord Albrecht Vilhelm . . . ”
He was holding Gjallahorn, the broad sword that was the Soul Core of Bifrost .
“From this moment onwards, I hereby appoint Kwak Jun, the commander-in-chief of Paramount and the tactician of Lord Vito Clemenza, as the senior advisor of Bifrost . ”
“I am eternally grateful, Your Majesty!”
Kwak Jun kneeled on one knee and bowed .
“In addition, I . . . ”
Vilhelm was about to continue his speech when . . .
Flash!
The warp gate in the middle of the Lord’s hall emitted a brilliant beam of light .
“Your Majesty . ”
Someone emerged from the warp gate .
It was a knight in a pristine white armor, which covered him from head to toe . He kneeled down in front of Vilhelm .
“Brynhildr…!”
Vilhelm couldn’t be more delighted .
***
In front of the Zolushka castle . . .
“Long live His Majesty Ramanujan!”
“Long live Shatyameba!”
“Long live commander-in-chief Lee Ji-Tae!”
High in spirits, the Shatyameba soldiers rampaged through the battlefield as they cheered for their leaders .
“Argh!”
“Arghhhhh!”
“M-Mercy… Kuhul!”
The soldiers of Zolushka fell helplessly to the Shatyameba soldiers . The reason for their defeat was simple . The Shatyameba soldiers were moving in unprecedented patterns, catching the Zolushka soldiers off-guard . It was truly a remarkable display of tactics .
“O-Oh no…!”
Lily Sephardi couldn’t believe her defeat .
In fact, it was a total defeat .
She had thought of enduring until Kang Chul-In’s reinforcements came, but that might not be possible .
The Shatyameba soldiers reached the castle front in just three days, and they penetrated the castle walls in just two days . Lily only had a small castle wall left, located between the inner and outer castle .
“Y-your Majesty! You have to escape!”
Rooibos persuaded Lily .
“Any further delay and you will be hurt!”
“B-But!”
“The inner castle will fall soon . Your Majesty, you need to remain safe no matter what!”
He was right . Zolushka had technically fallen . It was only a matter of time before the Shatyameba soldiers infiltrated the Lord’s hall .
Bam!
Suddenly, the Lord’s hall’s door shattered into pieces .
“Still here, huh?”
Ahinandi, a general of Shatyameba, looked at Lily . He had thousands of soldiers marching behind him .
“I… I . . . ”
Lily clenched her teeth .
“I… will never run!”
That was the girl’s will . Instead of abandoning her territory, she had chosen to fight to the end .
“Y-your Majesty!”
Rooibos, her secretary, went pale .
“Rooibos, I will fight!”
“ . . . !”
“I can’t just run away! Even if I die here, I will never abandon this territory!”
She was a young girl, but she had the courage of a lion .
Clap, clap, clap!
At that moment, someone gave her a round of applause .
“W-Who is it?”
“Doesn’t ring a bell . ”
“An ally?”
“Who is that bastard?”
The Shatyameba soldiers mumbled in puzzlement .
“Get lost . ”
The man then pushed the soldiers aside and stepped into the Lord’s hall .
