Around this time, Kang Jaeseong’s group set foot on the helipad on the roof of Union headquarters. After briefly shaking hands and greeting the waiting Lee Seokjun, they went straight to the underground monitoring room. At the same time, the great army of Atlantis struck the side of the demon army and people cheered.

Kang Jaeseong saw it and slowly nodded with a happy smile.

‘Clymene and Deucalion are doing well.’

It wasn’t a blood relationship, but the feelings that the unmarried Kang Jaeseong felt for them was the same as family. One regret was that for the time being, no, maybe he wouldn’t be able to see them for a long time. Then cheers poured out when people saw the revival of the three goddesses. Lee Seokjun and Yoo Minseok were also full of joy. As the unfavorable situation gradually moved toward a balance, they felt hope at winning the confrontation.

“We might be able to win!”

“It would be great if that would happen!”

However, Kang Jaeseong didn’t think so.

“We don’t know yet. Even if Atlantis and the three goddesses joined, their power is halved because this is the land, not the sea. The three goddesses also can’t use all their power after waking up.”

These words darkened the faces of Lee Seokjun and Yoo Minseok again. Lee Seokjun asked with an uneasy expression, “How do you know that the three goddesses have just woken up?”

“I will explain that slowly.”

Yoo Minseok stepped forward and Kang Jaeseong nodded.

“It is a very long story. First of all, I have to go to the control room in the underground laboratory. The two of you follow me. We can talk while moving. Additionally, Misung should come as well.”

“Huh? M-Me as well?”

“Didn't you say that you would stick close to me? You are worried.”

“Ah, of course I have to go!”

The four people entered the control room located deep on the third underground floor. The moment Kang Jaeseong entered, he looked around with emotional eyes. Then he touched the keyboard in front of him. The researchers on either side of him looked surprised. They were very surprised to see Dr Kang Jaeseong, who they thought was in a coma.

Some researchers approached to greet him, but Kang Jaeseong raised his hand to block them. His eyes quickly moved as he identified the error situation on the supercomputer. He closed his eyes and sighed deeply like he had identified the cause.

“It was indeed like this. Yes, he is the only one who can do this.”

“Did you find something?” Lee Seokjun asked Kang Jaeseong in a meaningful way.

Kang Jaeseong sighed and turned to him. “Do you know Dr Jang Inhan?” 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

“By Dr Jang Inhan, are you talking about the person who co-developed Arkstar with you in the early days? However, he was fired for some reason...”

Kang Jaeseong looked at Yoo Minseok with surprise. Yoo Minseok made eye contact with Kang Jaeseong and slowly shook his head. It meant that Lee Seokjun hadn’t been told the truth yet.

‘Sometimes not knowing is the best medicine.’

Dr Jang Inhan was the key figure who carried out the illegal experiments ordered by Lee Geonmyeong. His twisted desires led him to conduct such experiments. Jang Inhan might’ve been a rare genius of this age, but the result was a tragic death for unknown reasons. Dr Kang Jaeseong remembered the dead Jang Inhan. Thinking back now, he thought it might’ve been Lee Geonmyeong’s intentions from the beginning.

“That’s right. Dr Jang Inhan, who was fired for some reason, seems to have replicated the master key.”

“Huh? A replica key? Isn’t that a serious problem?”

Lee Seokjun paled like he had been struck by lightning. He looked the same as Yoo Minseok and the other researchers. However, Kang Jaeseong shook his head with a slight smile.

“It’s fine. The duplicate key isn’t perfect. If you give me time with the master key I have, I can slowly solve this error. I have to try it to see how long it will take.”

The heavy atmosphere quickly became lively. The surroundings were full of smiling people with faces full of hope.

“It is better to hurry. I need to activate the master key.”

Kang Jaeseong slowly went somewhere in the laboratory. The moment he pressed a certain place, a small scanner appeared. Then he turned to his sister, Kang Misung, who was standing stiffly.

“Misung, come and look at this.”

“Huh?”

“Quickly.”

Kang Misung stood in front of the machine. The machine shone a light on Kang Misung’s eyes and made a noise like it recognized something.

On the big screen, the words ‘administrator authority login complete’ appeared.

The researchers shouted, “It’s done!” Kang Jaeseong saw Lee Seokjun and Yoo Minseok’s surprised expressions and explained the situation, “Originally, the only way to use the master key is to recognize my iris. Just because I fell into the coma, I turned the master key’s authority over to my sister to prevent anything from happening. The master key recognized Misung’s iris and logged in as the administrator.”

Lee Seokjun and Yoo Minseok were surprised, but Kang Misung had a blank look on her face and couldn’t shut her mouth.

Kang Jaeseong rubbed his sister’s shoulder and took a seat.

“Then shall I get started?”

Kang Jaeseong sat in front of a supercomputer. Just across from him through the bulletproof glass, a sun-like white energy source was burning. It was the core energy that was the identity of the supercomputer Gaia.

The moment the tsunami in the form of white horses struck the side of the demon army, the Atlantean merfolk launched a fierce offensive. Clymene and Deucalion were also in the mix. I was quite surprised when I felt the familiar energy around them.

“That is my fork spoon?”

It was definitely Alexus’ Fork Spoon that Kang Jaeseong had once borrowed from me. However, the energy now being released from the fork spoon wasn’t like the fork spoon I used to know. A small earthquake occurred and the water being a living thing as it swept over the enemies. It went without saying that the demons were busy fleeing from the tremendous offensive.

One of the demon generals saw it and shouted, “Stop them! We must prove that us demons are stronger than the fishes!”

A demon general rushed to the huge tsunami. The demon general exchanged several attacks with Deucalion before his weapon was easily broken by the fork spoon and he died immediately. The momentum of Atlantis was like a storm. The moment I had this thought, a storm of rain and snow started to sweep away the enemies. I looked at the air in a startled manner and saw three familiar goddesses.

“You were alive.”

The demons collapsed helplessly from the combination of the three goddesses. Finally, the high rankings demons, who were just watching, started to emerge. The battlefield was becoming more confusing. At present, the two sides were still barely equal. The problem was that the number of demons was too high. Additionally, the undead had endless lives so it was very troublesome.

I finished thinking and called for Aries who was slaughtering the enemies nearby.

“Hey!”

[......?]

She had been raising her strength once she saw the goddesses and Atlantis’ army join in. Then when I called, she approached with a question mark over her face. She spoke while smashing the head of one of the demons, [Why did you call me?]

“Come with me to fight Lucifer.”

[Lucifer?]

“All of the undead are being created by Lucifer. If we take Lucifer down, then we will win.”

[Yes, I understand. I will help you.]

Aries loudly summoned some of the constellations who were fighting around her and conveyed her intentions. Around half of the constellations gathered. Chiron was asked to lead the rest and the constellations organized into separate groups. I rushed forward toward Lucifer first and struck the demons in front of me hard.

Attacks from Aries and several constellations followed. The Sun Dragon rose from the tip of my toes and broke through the demons.

“B-Block it!”

“It is impossible! Run away!”

Most of the demons couldn’t block our way. However, the counterattack of the undead who rose again at a terrifying speed was so fierce that it couldn’t be ignored. More than half of the demons were still left. As the high ranking demons joined one after another, it gradually turned to a situation unfavorable to us. There was still a long distance between us and Lucifer.

As I avoided and blocked the attacks of demons that came from everywhere, I slowly called for Chunza and Punghee. After a while, the space on both sides of me distorted and two human figures appeared. One was a woman who appeared to be in her mid-20s with long white hair. The other was a beautiful girl in her early teens with short black hair. The dark-haired Chunza laughed and looked around. “It has been a while! Father, did you call me?”

“Yes. Can you figure out the situation?”

“Get rid of those ugly guys?”

“Yes.”

Then I turned to the white-haired woman on the left. For a moment, I was speechless. It was because Punghee had become a mature woman.

“Punghee?”

“It’s me.”

“Your appearance has changed a lot.”

“It isn’t just my appearance that has changed.”

Punghee was slowly covered in a pure white fog. Then from inside the fog, I heard the roar of a beast and terrifying yellow eyes. The demons paused briefly at the tremendous roar. At the same time, a huge gust of wind blew through the surrounding and a terrifying pressure started to sweep the surrounding demons away. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

Punghee seemed to have already reached the point where she could freely handle the power of the North Wind. I wanted to ask where Kerenos was, but there was no time. Punghee disappeared like the wind and shot between enemies. Meanwhile, Chunza floated into the air and cast spells like she didn’t want to lose.

Surprisingly, she spread open her arms and many ancient characters emerged. Then black holes started appearing where Chunza looked. The black holes sucked in the demons around them in a terrifying manner and sent them somewhere unknown. She cast another spell and there was the sound of the sky breaking. A burning meteorite fell through the gap and caused a disaster.

The complexions of the demons changed.

* * *

The morale of the constellations rose due to the unusual natural disaster. Aries’ face was filled with hope as she thought that perhaps they could really win. At this moment, the star elemental sleeping inside Aries’ cuffs suddenly started to react.

Stella shook more strongly than before. Aries tried to calm it down, but Stella popped out and headed somewhere at a high speed.

‘Don’t tell me? The new king of the stars is about to be born?!’

Stella cast out star remnants as it shot forward and was instantly absorbed into a person’s body. Then a magnificent wave spread out from around the human like he had been blessed by the stars.
