Episode 231.
Trembling, trembling fists.
Lee Ye-jun was scrolling through his smartphone.
Internet communities, YouTube, press articles, etc.
Wherever I went, there was only talk of Maeng Si-woo.
There was no place where Maeng Si-woo’s name was not seen.
Then suddenly.
『
Lee Ye-jun, I was able to find one post related to myself.
Lee Ye-jun checked the post as if he was possessed.
Hold on.
『Come to think of it, when the disaster happened in Seoul, S-class hunters also came out to help. But I don’t think I’ve seen Lee Ye-jun. What’s he doing these days?』
The content of the post asking about Lee Ye-jun’s current status.
Lee Ye-jun scrolled down and checked the comments.

There were all kinds of mocking comments.
As I was reading the comments, I was reminded of the humiliation I suffered from Han Chae-rin in the past.
Ugh!
A sound of something collapsing was heard from the corner of Lee Ye-jun’s mouth.
It was all because of Maeng Si-woo.
If it weren’t for Maeng Si-woo, Han Chae-rin wouldn’t have had to suffer such humiliation.
If it weren’t for Maeng Si-woo, there would be no reason for people to ridicule him.
That’s all…!
“Maeng Si-woo!”
It happened because of him.
I wanted to kill him.
I wanted to tear him limb from limb and kill him right now.
But I couldn’t bring myself to do that.
…because I saw it.
What kind of power does Maeng Si-woo have?
What Maeng Si-woo has accomplished.
It’s hard to believe, but I saw it with my own two eyes.
I hate to admit it, but Lee Ye-jun couldn’t beat Maeng Si-woo.
Although he wanted to kill her right away, Lee Ye-jun didn’t have the strength to do so.
“Maeng Si-woo!”
The only thing I can do is just spit out the name as if chewing it─.
Khuhihihihi!
… laughter was heard from somewhere.
“Who are you?”
Lee Ye-jun asked in the direction from which the sound came.
An alleyway shrouded in darkness.
“Kihihihihi.”
A faint laughter could be heard from inside.
It was closer than I thought.
But I didn’t feel any movement at all.
‘You say I didn’t feel any movement at all?’
Tension was etched onto Lee Ye-jun’s face.
Even though he was consumed with anger, Lee Ye-jun was a S-class hunter.
An S-class hunter standing at the pinnacle of humanity.
But I didn’t feel it at all.
That means,
This means that the being in that alley is someone skilled enough to fool the senses of an S-class hunter.
“He asked who I was.”
Lee Ye-jun asked with great caution.
“Me? Are you asking me? Are you asking who I am?”
Then a meaningful answer came from inside.
“Are you asking who I am? Are you curious? Are you curious about who I am? Keeheehee!”
He didn’t look very mentally… healthy.
But Lee Ye-jun did not let his guard down.
Even though he was not in a good mood, his skills were definitely there.
Ugh.
A man appeared in the darkness of the alley.
An unidentified man wearing a yellow fox mask.
It was impossible to tell if it was a man or not because he was wearing a mask.
But I could tell it was a man by the voice I was hearing.
“Do you want to kill me? Do you want to kill me? Do you want to kill Maeng Si-woo?”
Soon, a man wearing a yellow fox mask asked.
The voice that was heard was permeated with an unknown madness.
Crazy fox.
It was a maddening sight that made me think that way on my own.
“Will you help me? Will you help me kill Maeng Si-woo? Pull out his tongue, take out his eyes! Will you help me kill Maeng Si-woo?”
Keuhehehehehe!
A laugh that sparkles with bright red madness.
Just hearing it made Lee Ye-jun’s mind turn bright red.
* * *
The special room in SH Hospital where Seo-ah is hospitalized.
Siwoo got up from his bed and covered Seoah, who was sleeping soundly, with the blanket.
“Then, Heukdol, please take good care of me.”
Wow!
Then, Black Rock barked at him, telling him to trust only him.
And then he stood upright in the center of the sickroom, and with the most solemn expression in the world, he swung left! swung right!
Seo-ah showed her will to protect.
Then and now.
He was the world’s most sturdy black stone.
“I wish Samsoon had come too.”
Wow!
Black Rock barked energetically as if in agreement.
But Samsoon didn’t come even though she was trying hard.
He kept guarding the door of the house and didn’t move an inch.
I tried to drag him in by force, but he got stuck…
What if someone breaks into my house while I’m away?
Seeing Samsoon talking like that, I had no choice but to leave her at home.
‘Even if you brought him here, he would just be crouching in front of the hospital room door.’
Samsoon, a three-headed girl.
If the patients and nurses see Samsoon like that…
‘I’d rather stay home.’
In many ways, Samsoon seemed to enjoy being at home.
So, Heukdol is by Seo-ah’s side.
The house is Samsoon.
“Then I’ll ask you something, Black Rock.”
Wow!
Siwoo was able to leave the hospital room, shaking off all of the world’s worries.
Immediately after leaving the hospital room.
Siwoo immediately took out Gottube’s smartphone.
And I found Cleopatra’s contact information and contacted her.
“…I’m not getting it.”
But Cleopatra did not answer the call.
I’ve tried contacting you more than ten times so far, but I haven’t received a single answer.
“Are you avoiding it on purpose?”
I had that thought for a moment, but it couldn’t be true.
Cleopatra avoids contact with Siu.
Rather, it was not enough to just accept the offer and say let’s get married.
“You seem to be busy with social affairs.”
It seemed like that was the case.
Mademoiselle of the high society.
Cleopatra had great power in high society.
But it was none other than Aphrodite and Persephone who blacklisted Adonis.
The two goddesses were equally influential as Cleopatra.
Of course he wouldn’t have stayed still.
Maybe I was having a blast with two goddesses right now.
Cleopatra vs Aphrodite and Persephone.
I was really curious to see how they would fight.
‘Will you upload this video on Cleopatra Channel later?’
If it came up, I would be willing to see it.
No, I really wanted to see it.
…anyway.
“Because there is a record of my absence.”
When I have some free time, I’ll contact you.
Siwoo put his smartphone in his subspace pocket.
“by the way.”
Siwoo glanced to the side.
A man who has been bothering me for a while.
A face so handsome that it makes movie stars go away.
“Why on earth did you come here?”
“Why are you here? Didn’t your brother contact you to ask you to help with filming?”
When Siwoo asked, Kim Yijun answered with a look of resentment.
And well, it was true.
Because Siwoo contacted Kim Yijun first to ask for help with filming.
but.
“You said to meet me in front of the dungeon. You didn’t say to meet me at the hospital?”
Then Kim Yi-jun said, “Ah, ahem!”
He coughed in vain and avoided Siwoo’s gaze.
“Oh, we’re meeting anyway. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could meet sooner?”
“You don’t have any other purpose?”
“What, any other purpose? Absolutely not! I absolutely had no intention of visiting Seo-ah in the hospital─!”
Kim Yi-jun hurriedly covered his mouth.
But this one too.
Sometimes when I looked at it, I thought maybe a screw was missing.
This absurd feeling lasted only a moment.
“But, hyung. Is Seo-ah… okay?”
Kim Yi-jun asked with a very worried expression.
“I think I’ve been sleeping for too long.”
I definitely didn’t have that feeling.
So, Siwoo was worried, but he checked on Seoah with Hwata.
There was no problem.
I really needed my body to recover so I just reduced my metabolism to a minimum.
So, I was just sleeping.
‘Because it was a blood clot that I had been suffering from for years.’
Blood is the main source of energy that supplies the body with vitality.
But Seo-ah’s blood had not been able to fulfill its role properly for many years.
Over the years, Seo-ah’s body had become very damaged.
Even though the body was transformed, the recovery process could not be simple.
Still, whatever.
“You’ll wake up in a few days.”
It was an unchanging fact that he was now healthy.
“I am so glad.”
Kim Yi-jun smiled brightly and showed relief.
That appearance is really… .
‘He was handsome.’
Even a man like me would feel that way.
It wasn’t as bad as Adonis, but it was close to his feet.
In short, he has the looks to make many women cry.
But surprisingly, he was a pure-hearted person.
I don’t want a love that’s easy to meet and easy to break up with, but a passionate love that I dedicate my whole life to.
I can’t believe that with my looks, I’ve never dated a girl before.
Maybe that’s why.
“You. Don’t even think about visiting Seo-ah without telling me.”
Siwoo couldn’t shake off his uneasy feelings.
“Huh? Why!”
Judging from the way he was startled and screamed, it seemed like he had intended to do that.
“Why, why? If it doesn’t work, you know it doesn’t work.”
When Siwoo spoke firmly, Kim Yijun made a gloomy expression.
But looking at your expression… .
It seemed like he had no intention of giving up.
‘I have to tell Heukdol to ask Kim Ijun if he comes.’
Of course, when Black Rock bites, it doesn’t end with just biting.
At least one arm or one leg.
It could easily lead to serious injuries, such as the loss of all limbs.
But what.
Kim Lee Jun was okay.
I’m going to play it anyway.
“So, don’t think about useless things. Let’s go quickly.”
Siwoo hurried his steps.
Because there’s a mountain of work to do.
I had to shoot a YouTube commercial right away.
Although a blood tonic was developed, Yuhanna’s illness has not yet been cured.
It would have taken at least several months for Yuhanna to be treated.
I also had to create the staff for Yoo Han-na that I had promised there.
Other custom-made equipment must also be prepared.
I also have to prepare for Hephaestus’ class.
‘Hercules will be back soon.’
Of course, information about Hades.
I also had to subscribe to the real-time subscription service that I had been putting off.
Here’s Hwa-tu’s class.
“Let’s go together, brother!”
There was no time to hesitate.
* * *
A view of a ruined dungeon.
It was an S-rank dungeon where a monster called the ‘Hond Demon’ appeared, but unfortunately there was no Orihalcon.
[Hahahahaha! You really have fun teaching!]
Hephaestus’ hearty laughter could be heard beyond the smartphone screen.
On the one hand, I wonder how someone can be so ugly when they smile.
“haha…!”
Siwoo couldn’t come to his senses as he felt like he was going to pass out at any moment.
I’m not kidding, I really felt like I was out of breath.
The rise and fall muscles.
Is this where you come to learn metallurgy?
Or maybe you came to fight metallurgy.
“Cough…!”
Siwoo barely managed to pull himself together with his shattered body.
At the same time, ding!
A notification window appeared above Hephaestus’s appearance.
And once again, tiring, tiring!
[That’s all for today’s class! Next time, prepare a new Orihalcon!]
Hahahahahaha!
The pot ends with the hearty voice of Hephaestus.
The long video call ended as the screen changed.
“Phew… .”
Siwoo took a deep breath and collected his wits.
And check the notification window that pops up again.
“God’s metallurgy proficiency has exceeded 100%?”
We were able to see the God’s Metallurgy (SS) proficiency level reaching 100.13%.
Of course, it was a small number, 0.13%.
But the significance was that it exceeded 100%.
“hmm….”
Siwoo was lost in thought.
“Is it possible to get 100% by learning directly from the god?”
The highest possibility that could come to mind was this:
Supernatural Strength (SS) and Divine Metallurgy (SS).
Hercules and Hephaestus.
The personality that broke through 100% was something that Siwoo was learning directly from the god.
but.
“It’s not a divine technique?”
This wasn’t always like that.
There were currently three more things that Siwoo had achieved 100% proficiency in.
Let’s say Insight (S+) and Tai Chi (SS).
However, if the above hypothesis is correct, the divine medicine (S+) should have also exceeded 100%.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Siwoo is currently inheriting everything from Hwa-ta.
“… What’s the difference?”
Deepening thoughts.
But no answer was ever given.
“What is going on?”
That very moment I wanted.
Tiring!
A DM message from Zhuge Liang suddenly appeared on the screen.
