A VIP as Soon as You Log In

Chapter 321 - Coordinator of Time and Space (3)

That day, oddly enough, a dispatch request had gone to Kang Shin-hyuk. It was because, for the first time in the world, there had been an irregular gate that couldn’t be measured. Naturally, the superhumans’ abilities on Earth for the past half-year...it was because of their exponential growth that it was happening. In particular, Masked Bacchus members (nowadays, it was being abbreviated as MaB) had grown splendidly.

“Now, the people of Earth are also starting to notice, but the stronger they are, the higher the gate level will be.”

The gathering time was in ten minutes at the large playground. After checking the message, he was preparing to go out leisurely, but suddenly the administrator responded to his self-talk.

-No way. Mankind will forever roll the wheel.

He just sighed. Previously, he had just considered it a vicious circle, and he would destroy the source of Jormungand. However, the Chiral he had created in the previous life served as its source, and even if he destroyed it, he would face his destruction.

‘Before Jormungand, monsters just occurred. Now Jormungand controlled them. As I intended, humans are efficiently fighting back, so they have no time to fight each other...’

That alone wouldn’t have been enough to ensure their survival, though. That was why a group called the Hero Universe had checked on them and allowed civilization to continue. There was a reason why the Hero Universe members were hostile to Jormungand but didn’t chase them down to their roots. Now that he had completely recovered the memories of his previous life and matured a little... Kang Shin-hyuk hated to admit it.

“It’s a breathtaking tightrope.”

-That’s how the world operates, member. Everyone is just trying to grow, and you have driven them in a very positive direction.

“... You’re still a little calm today, administrator.”

-I’m so excited I’m trying to suppress it. 5,000,000HP bonus!

“Yes, I said it for nothing... Yesterday, you sent out more than that.”

-The administrator has been in a good mood since yesterday!

That’s right. Yesterday, he heard of a certain event that deserved to be commemorated... And some would be furious to hear about it.

“Yes. Leaving?”

“Gate. I’ll finish it as soon as possible and come back.”

“Then, I too...”

Claire woke up to find Kang Shin-hyuk getting out of bed. However, Kang Shin-hyuk hurriedly ran back to her and laid her back down.

“No, keep sleeping.”

“Still...”

“It’s okay.”

“Huh...”

Claire let her head fall back into her pillow, but Kang Shin-hyuk still couldn’t be relieved.

“Don’t overdo anything, understand?”

“Ah, what are you doing? It’s only three weeks now.”

“If something goes wrong, it’ll go wrong anyway.”

“Yes. Okay, then, kiss.”

He kissed Claire and left a moment later. As soon as the door closed, a sigh left him.

“I don’t know if there’s really a child...”

-You are fortunate to have obtained a formal diploma and a superhuman certificate in negotiations with the school last year.

“It’s not such a problem; it’s that I’m still a minor under Korean law...”

Yesterday, he learned about Claire’s pregnancy. If Kang Shin-hyuk had still belonged to Shinyoung as a student, it would’ve caused an uproar. Even in the early days of his inauguration, there were parts of the world that didn’t know how to deal with him, but now his position as an instructor and the world’s No. 1 had been firmly established. Claire knew it too, so she said she wanted to have a child. No, not only that, but he wondered if she wanted to have a deeper connection with him.

‘I don’t have to worry about it, but like a fool... No, I am a fool.’

It was his fault if he couldn’t reassure her. He had suffered a failure in his previous life, but this time, he wouldn’t leave it that way. Now he had the ability to fight, not just to craft. But losing someone precious was an awful thought.

‘...Yes, Eunah too.’

He would definitely find her. For that reason, he was steadily growing stronger.

“...Okay.”

-You have far exceeded the average strength of a VIP member. In essence, the stronger they are, the slower the growth rate...

As Kang Shin-hyuk had mastered Lullaby, he had suffered from two major mental changes as he recovered all of his past life. And, naturally, it led to the evolution of his abilities and their explosive growth, so he had reached an average of X2 rank. Members of the Hero Universe had to undergo 200 years of hardship to match his growth level, based on the stories he heard from VIP members in the secret bulletin board. It was said that Kang Shin-hyuk’s trait had a utility that exceeded even the years of other talented members.

-It would be okay to judge that your trait is the most effective in evolving yourself.

“Can you also see the results?”

-Of course, but as I previously said, only you can accurately determine your abilities.

It was important to know them exactly because he could develop his ability quickly only when he fully understood himself. However, sometimes knowing could lead to less than desirable results.

“Oh, I really can’t do it...”

“To do nothing...”

“Ha...”

“...”

Kang Shin-hyuk put a hand to his head as he watched Lee Na-hee and Eleanor just lying down on the playground.

“What are you guys doing?”

“I’ve no motivation at all. No matter how good I am, you’ll be going back to eunni anyway. Ha...”

“Haah, everything is fleeting...”

“It’s a spectacle.”

A filming team was already on standby, but fortunately, people knew that they could trust MaB, even despite this pitiful sight. Bridget looked like she might start laughing at any moment as she moved next to Kang Shin-hyuk.

“They couldn’t admit it until now. They were dragging their feet, and now they know she’s pregnant.”

“By the way, at this kind of timing? When I have to enter a gate of unknown rank?”

“We’ll go together.”

Bridget folded her arm with his while spouting nonsense, and he flicked her forehead without hesitation.

“You’re the first to go.”

“Ah-oh, this iron wall is really so beautiful!”

“It’s really a spectacle.”

This time, it was Oh Hye-na as he looked back. Only she was wearing the formal uniform of MaB. Actually, it seemed that she was somewhat over-formal.

“Have you been infected by the middle schooler virus too?”

“No? I’m trying to get as strong as I can to stop this evil.”

“No, thank you...”

“Let’s go!”

Baek In-ha, who appeared a second after, let out a cheerful yell. He knew they came from the same room anyway, but they were trying to hide it like that.

“Wait, Claire’s seat is available, so take Vita with you.”

“Huh? Why is your noona... Ahh, yes...”

“Baek, die!”

“What?!”

“Hey!”

Baek survived the wrath of Lee Na-hee and Eleanor by using Oh Hye-na as a shield, while Oh Hye-na’s valiant attempts to protect MaB’s image failed. It was just then that Vita arrived.

“I’m here!”

Kang Shin-hyuk, Eleanor, Lee Na-hee, Oh Hye-na, Baek In-ha, Bridget, and Vita. A total of seven people had gathered together, put into position by Kang Shin-hyuk.

“The gate’s in America? You should go greet her parents.”

“Puppeteer, it is said there are signs of erosion. I think you need to hurry.”

The cameraman, who had been still until then, urged Kang Shin-hyuk forward, showing a rather relaxed attitude.

“Ah, I get it.”

He nodded and motioned for the cameraman to get closer. The inventions made by him, Claire, and Vita had brought about a huge change in superhuman activities. One of them was a cameraman who entered the gate with the superhuman team to document their performance. The role of the cameraman this time was also important as this gate was a first on Earth.

“This will be my first time to film Masked Bacchus. Thank you very much!”

“Ah, yes. Then, let’s go right away.”

“Yes? The helicopter...”

“We can’t go to a gate that occurred in the US by helicopter.”

“What?! Come to think of it...?!”

Perhaps the cameraman wasn’t that quick. Kang Shin-hyuk sighed as he activated his space domination ability. In the blink of an eye, the group was in front of a crack in space.

“Oh, we were sucked in as soon as we moved? It looks like a ridiculously large gate.”

“Are we in already?! It doesn’t make sense!”

“The cameraman is talking a lot.”

“Sorry, but he’s with us.”

Baek responded to Lee Na-hee’s grievances with a smile. It was a dangerous gate that didn’t have an identifiable rank, and normally a cameraman wouldn’t be brought to such a dangerous place. The reason why he was there was to show that MaB could do the impossible casually.

“Oh, but this much.”

The system message hadn’t appeared even after entering the gate. Nevertheless, he expanded his spiritual power to explore all directions of the gate, immediately deciding an emergency exit wouldn’t be necessary.

“But... It’s a little weird. No matter how high the rank, the Gaia system still usually responds.”

-...I don’t know what happened.

The administrator replied hesitantly to Kang Shin-hyuk’s murmuring.

He learned a little later what had happened to the Gaia system.
