Chapter 295: Throwing a fit can be beneficial 2
Chairman Kwon immediately frowned .
Stupid phone salesman .
That was probably the title Ju-Heon used when they first met .
At first, he wondered how there could be such a crazy bastard . But it was different now . Chairman Kwon’s mind was complicated now that he had a bit of the memories of the past .
Why? The bastard he thought was a random lunatic actually had a deep relationship with him .
Furthermore, if what the artifact showed him was true, Ju-Heon was his lackey .
Chairman Kwon was extremely angry at the fact that someone like that got in his way so much .
‘This dog-like son of a bitch!’
He looked as if he would have sneered at Ju-Heon if they were face to face .
But Chairman Kwon seemed to be scared about something after seeing those memories . His hand still could not stop shaking .
Ju-Heon commented at that moment, as if he knew what Chairman Kwon was scared about .
[I heard you received the memory artifact from Yang Chen . How much were you able to figure out?]
“……!”
[Did you manage to get any information about important tombs or artifacts? You probably don’t know a thing . ]
Ju-Heon’s tone was making Chairman Kwon close to raging in anger .
“You son of a bitch . ”
That was right . This was what Chairman Kwon was scared about .
People tend to be scared about things they don’t know . He was feeling scared that Ju-Heon had information he didn’t know about .
Furthermore, the information Ju-Heon seemed to have was at no ordinary level .
A person from the future . If he knew everything that happened in the future, nothing in this world could compare to him .
And if the future he saw was the one that was supposed to happen, that was an even greater problem .
He saw a society dominated by the monopolizers . Seo Ju-Heon was changing that future completely .
This bastard was someone who should have worked as his slave for 10 years! And, although he couldn’t be sure, he probably didn’t keep the promise he made with Ju-Heon . Knowing that Ju-Heon probably had grudges against him made it even scarier .
He was scared this bastard would gobble him up . He didn’t know what this bastard was planning to do with him . He didn’t know how to deal with this bastard who was changing the future!
It would be one thing if he remembered everything . That might be why Chairman Kwon thoroughly rejected the notion that what he saw was the future .
“I don’t know what the hell you did, but I can tell that the future that this bastard Yang Chen showed me is a lie . ”
“!”
Yang Chen almost jumped in shock .
“Chairman-nim……what do you…ugh!”
Boom!
Yang Chen was having trouble breathing after being instantly choked .
“Hyung-nim!”
“C, Chairman-nim……it’s not a l…!”
“Shut up . How dare you try to mess with me with something like this after failing your mission . ”
“U, ugh……!”
Chairman Kwon glared at Yang Chen with his bloodshot eyes while his hand was squeezing Yang Chen’s neck .
[U, ugh! Chairman…nim……! Please don’t do……th…]
[This despicable bastard . I wondered why you showed up but you showed up as Seo Ju-Heon’s spy?]
[T, that’s not…… ugh!]
[I should have figured it out from the moment you claimed to have broken out of that prison . Did Seo Ju-Heon let you out to do this?]
[A, aaah! Please trust……!]
[Trust you? Are you trying to rile me up? Believing that future means that I was bitten by a dog that I raised . ]

[Ugh!]
Ju-Heon was clutching his stomach and laughing as he heard Yang Chen suffocating .
‘This stupid old bastard . ’
He was trying to kill a bastard who could help him because he couldn’t trust him .
Well, Ju-Heon didn’t care whether Yang Chen died or not . He expected this from the moment he knew Yang Chen would go to Chairman Kwon .
‘That old bastard is that kind of person . ’
Yang Chen probably went to grab a lifeline after Chloe made it so that he couldn’t use artifacts, but… Chairman Kwon was no lifeline . Even after seeing the future, he was the type who would not accept such a shitty future because of his pride .
He would definitely not accept it with Ju-Heon calling him to tease him like this .
As expected, Chairman Kwon commented while choking Yang Chen .
[Seo Ju-Heon… Your scheme will not work . Did you plan to confuse me with such a fake future?]
“What the hell? You already found out? I helped that bastard Yang Chen break out of prison to do such a shitty job?”
The wronged Yang Chen screamed while Chairman Kwon ground his teeth .
And then…
[Ugh!]
Yang Chen’s voice could not be heard anymore .
Ju-Heon calmly added on after that .
“Of course I was joking . ”
[……!]
Ju-Heon despicably smiled .
“If you can’t believe it, let me tell you something quite entertaining about the future . For example, maybe the business you are thinking of starting?”
Chairman Kwon seemed quite anxious . This was extremely top secret information that had not leaked .
But Ju-Heon just casually started talking about it .
“XX Artifact City Construction Business . Investments for your daughter Kwon Joo Hee . Creation of an Artifact Foundation . Ah, you were going to call it AA right? You were also going to purchase land in Zone A for your in-laws . By the way, they all fail . Just don’t do them . ”
[………?!]
“I made them all fail . I took care of all those corrupt bastards . ”
‘This crazy fucker . ’
Ju-Heon even knew about other things as well .
“You were going to name your first granddaughter Tae Hee, right? I really have to leave it to you, you old bastard . But did you have to put a part of your name into your granddaughter’s name?”
“……!”
‘This bastard . ’
Ju-Heon continued on while Chairman Kwon was shaking in anger .
“It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not . What matters to me is that you know about it . ”
[What?]
“It was getting boring messing with someone who doesn’t know anything . ”
Ju-Heon sounded quite pleased .
Without the Raven’s artifact, all those bastards would get was like watching a movie . It was completely different from the Raven’s Tears that would fuse the memories of the person here with their future selves .
He knew that Yang Chen sharing the album with Chairman Kwon would not harm them in any way .
‘Well, they’ll just feel as if it was them . ’
It was the perfect amount Ju-Heon wanted them to remember .
“I was changing the difficulty since you don’t know jack shit . ”
The team members around him gasped .
‘He did this to change the difficulty?!’
Ju-Heon was being serious .
And then…
“Now that you saw that, I can stop warming up now, right?”
‘What? Warning up?’
Chairman Kwon was about to quickly say something, but…
Click .
The call ended abruptly .
Click .
“Hyu, hyung-nim . ”
Kwon Hyuk Soo seemed anxious while looking at Chairman Kwon . The suffocated Yang Chen wasn’t moving at all .
Chairman Kwon had thrown his phone with his face flushed with anger the moment Ju-Heon hung up .

‘That deplorable bastard……!’
The thing he was worried about seemed as if it would become reality .
‘I’ll be gobbled up by this bastard . ’
He tried to believe that what he saw was not true, but it was useless .
The events of the past life started to feel more as if it had been his own as time went on .
He didn’t know about most things, but the fact that he had been Ju-Heon’s master and gave the order to kill him… .
Things like that seemed to want to spark some things in his mind .
That made him even angrier .
‘How dare he……!’
According to his memories, that bastard was his subordinate .
But what?
‘Warming up?’
“Is that bastard fucking crazy?!”
Chairman Kwon was about to explode .
He had suffered quite a lot at Ju-Heon’s hands already .
The Herb of Eternal Youth, Ju-Heon embarrassing his stupid son-in-law, grabbing Yoo Jaeha from under his nose, making him become the enemy of the US-Europe alliance… Turning him into a corpse inside a coffin, shamelessly imprisoning his children and looting his artifact! This shitty bastard also ruined his relationships with his precious partner businesses! He even stole TKBM stock and rattled the company!
Thinking about how he had to sell precious artifacts and Tomb Excavation Rights at cheap prices to deal with these losses was aggravating!
Even as a large global corporation, TKBM had faced danger quite a few times because of Ju-Heon . Chairman Kwon was barely able to stabilize the shaking company because he had artifacts, Tomb Excavation Rights, and a know-how about excavation .
Most countries and businesses looked favorably on him because he was one of the trailblazers in the artifact world .
But they would only support him a few times . Yet Ju-Heon was saying all of this was just the warm up?
“Ow!”
Being extremely angry was one thing……
“I need to stop that bastard! I need to regain my position!”
That bastard was aiming for him . He didn’t know for sure, but it was probably for revenge .
And that bastard would head to even greater heights . Ju-Heon was the type who would do it just to destroy him! Chairman Kwon slammed his hand on the table while going crazy with anger .
“Contact Pandora right away and make them prepare the following artifact!”
“Excuse me?”
“We need to stop him from clearing the 7 Great Tombs first . I have a pretty good idea about what that bastard is going to do . ”
Chairman Kwon, whose ass has been on fire, started to smile .
It was only for a moment, but he had seen something in those memories .
He would use that to make that bastard Seo Ju-Heon fall to the ground .
The angry Chairman Kwon’s eyes looked quite evil .
“Excuse me? You know where Seo Ju-Heon is going to summon a tomb?”
Pandora and the large excavation teams of different countries were tilting their heads in confusion .
It was because of a message they received from TKBM two day ago .
They claimed to have information on Seo Ju-Heon!
Of course, they already knew that Ju-Heon was going to summon the Tomb of Avarice with the fossil artifact he took from George Holten . But they had no idea where he would summon it .
“The Grand Canyon?”
Unexpectedly, Chairman Kwon said that Ju-Heon might summon the tomb there .
There were some other potential spots as well but that was the most likely spot .
There was a reason for his theory .
‘The Tomb of Avarice I saw in that memory was in the Grand Canyon . ’
Of course, he might not summon it there .
But there were many factors that made it very likely . For example, there was the ‘most ideal environment’ to consider .
Furthermore, Ju-Heon had moved around the Grand Canyon area .
Although it was difficult to figure out how Chairman Kwon figured it out, it was quite amazing .
There was something even more amazing .
‘I also know the artifact necessary to open the entrance of the Tomb of Avarice . ’
Chairman Kwon even knew how to open the tomb .
He didn’t know the details about how to clear it, but he had some ideas .
The surprising thing was that the Tomb of Avarice really had been summoned when a team arrived at the Grand Canyon .
The peaks sticking up in the desert were proof . Chairman Kwon smiled after hearing that they had found the tomb .
“I will thoroughly use that memory to my benefit . ”
Around that same time…
“Captain-nim, are you not going to use the Raven’s tears on Chairman Kwon?”
On a desolate desert in the United States… Around the Grand Canyon…
The team members looked around as they asked . Ju-Heon gave a simple response .
“No, I will use it . ”
“You are going to use it?”
Ju-Heon smiled .
“That old bastard has some glimpses of the future right now . The chances of him remembering the things I want him to remember are pretty low . ”
“Then……!”
“I am going to use the Raven’s Tears on that bastard at the final moment . Then I will make him thoroughly realize it . He will feel the shame of being bitten by a dog he has raised . ”
But what he knew was enough for right now .
“But that old bastard seems to have gotten a useful memory . ”
The team members clicked their tongues while looking at the hoards of excavation teams in the desert .
That was right . Their enemies, who somehow figured out where they would be, were all around the desert .
Well, maybe it wasn’t too shocking . They had not hid their movements at all .
Ju-Heon even summoned it here on purpose .
However…
“Wow, those bastards even know how to open the entrance . ”
The enemies who had followed Ju-Heon seemed to know how to get inside .
The artifacts in their hands were proof that was the case .
It was to be expected .
Chairman Kwon should have seen the Tomb of Avarice while going through those memories .
That tomb was the one Ju-Heon had cleared . He had discussed the way to open the tomb with numerous newspapers .
Chairman Kwon was probably going to use that memory as foundation to get inside before Ju-Heon, but……
“Well, it doesn’t matter . ”
“You have a point . They can’t do anything like that . ”
They could see a lot of people screaming in front of them .
“Aaah! What the hell is that?!”
“Which one is the real tomb?!”
That was right . There were hundreds of the same peaks around the Grand Canyon .
They were the fake tombs that Jaeha had created! He had copied the fossil artifact itself to call forth hundreds of tombs .
Jaeha, who was still copying the fossil artifact to summon even more fake tombs, laughed out loud .
“Hahaha, good luck finding the real tomb, you retards! I bet that you can’t find it! There’s no way you’ll find it! Kakakakakaka!”
He seemed quite excited while summoning tombs left and right .
“Captain-nim, I did good, right? Did I do good? If so, please change my contract! Profits divided 9:1! 9:1! Please be humane and give me at least 10%!”
Well, he wasn’t really thinking about taking it .
“You can just have all 10 . ”
“Oh, really? REALLY?! OHHH YEEEEAH!”
Ju-Heon smiled while looking at his confused enemies .
“Let’s go inside . Time to go to the real tomb . ”

Path of Righteousness
What do you desire? What are you afraid of? You run away from one, pursuing the other. Is that all you are? Conquer your fears. Dig to the bottom and confirm, what you really want... ...For you cannot escape suffering and death. You only have a little time. Use it wisely. Uru, a young boy with no talent for magic or fighting, sets out on a quest to become an avatar of order, the physical embodiment of righteousness, in a distant future, where control of origin energy allows people to defy physics and manipulate causality. Mocked by fate and broken by impossible dreams, all that's left is to stand in defiance to cruel existence. Because there is a Truth out there, somewhere. Singular, transcendent, eternal. What would you sacrifice for it? *** This is a fantastic sci-fi epic. It's going to blend both western and eastern traditional fantasy tropes – like might & magic and cultivation – with rational sci-fi grounded fully in reality, to produce a purely fictional fairy tale. I'd like to deliver something light-hearted and yet wholly serious. An uplifting adventure exploring the unfathomable reaches of humanity, free of indecency, with a healthy dose of humorous banter, legendary beings, and most importantly – lots of exciting, firework-filled mayhem! I've tried reading many web novels, but there's a fundamental problem with them – the eastern ones are annoyingly repetitive, superficial and morally destitute, while western ones are often dark, convoluted and profane. There's only so much one can do to filter out the bad and try to fill in the gaps with their own imagination. It's one thing to eat tasty fast food, but if it's moldy and filled with toxins, then it's not only poisonous, but also disgusting. The appreciation of beauty and higher values is disappearing at an alarming rate. Although there are throngs of talented people out there, none of them are creating what I want to witness – an inspiring battle against impossible odds, ending in absolute victory. A triumph of the spirit so overwhelming, it crushes the spectator into his seat and takes his breath away. I'm looking for a real paragon, so now I'd like to try conceiving one. *** The MC's name comes from Tolkien's Elven dictionary in Silmarillion, 'Uru' meaning 'Fire', and 'Dagnir an Uruloki' meaning 'Slayer of Dragons'. *** Note: I'm neither a native speaker, nor an aficionado of literature – I've never written anything before, and despite proficient English my literary prowess is abysmal. It therefore takes me a painful amount of effort to polish the chapters and bring them up to par. Last year I wrote and posted some on FictionPress, but I stopped since it wasn't going anywhere. The appalling amount of filth and mediocrity being peddled in all the media nowadays – a result of no conspiracy to manipulate the masses, but plain supply and demand – is no longer just the triumph of form over substance, but most worryingly corruption of the latter. Who wants to read about ideals anymore? And yet, masses flock together to gobble up perversion and depravity. That being said, I can't rule out pitiful exposure as the culprit to my failure, so I am now once again trying to increase it here, possibly for the last time. If there are still human beings present, hungry or in need of a detox after eating too much garbage, make yourselves heard, so I can see a reason to continue the story. Otherwise it's pointless – I'm not going to make fodder for the masses, and I'm most certainly not going to throw pearls before swine. I'll simply stop writing altogether.

Path of the Stonebreaker
Femira spent her life stealing scraps and looting corpses just to survive another day. When she stumbles upon the chance to steal another's identity, she thinks she's found the ticket to an easy life. But she soon finds the glamour of the runewielder's hall hides as much peril as the bloodslick streets. Can she steal the greatest prize of all, the knowledge to reshape the earth, and make it out alive? Abandoned by his abusive father at the far reaches of the world, Daegan may not have the powers of his ancestors but he refuses to die in banishment. Will he make it back home in time to prevent a brewing war? ------------------- This is a gritty drama-driven, rambling tale that presents mysteries early on that the characters work to unravel throughout the story. It swings between action, drama, and sometimes some darker comedy. Warning: A whole lot of profanity, alcohol, drugs, implied violence, actual violence and mega-violence—the kind that involves knives sliding into eye sockets and brains spilling onto floors—the usual stuff, scenes of intimacy, mercenaries, pirates, lots of moral ambiguity, including a wizard that likes to make tea with the heat sucked from his victim's bodies and a heap of world-ending monsters ready to eat people. _______________ Expectations: Updates every Monday and Thursday. Chapters will be between 2,000 and 5,000 words. I'm Irish and write in "Irish English" which is to say that I don't use much of the letter "z"

All David had to look forward to was his five minutes of fame as an extra to the next Halo game presentation. They expected him to wear cheap cosplay.

An Extra-Ordinary Story about Ordinary People
In a different world, a different reality, where ordinary people occasionaly have extra-ordinary powers for no particular reason, we follow a number of characters, trying their best to live in this strange yet normal world. We have our first character, a currently nameless but sentinent creature who happened to find himself in the body of a strange fungus after an unknown incident that robbed him of not only his former body but of his memory, as well. Secondly, we follow Smith, a high-standing man who doesn't even need to explain which Smith he is, on top of the world, yet human enough to meet said fungus. And thirdly, we have another nameless character, who is burdened by the ability to summon things that he doesn't want. A charming gang, who will (most likely) meet at some point. --- All and all, it's a twist on the common super-hero world, where all super-heroes have somehow dissappeared, but not the possibility for new ones. The series that feature the mushroom-dude are the 123 ones, the stories that feature Smith are the ABC ones, and the ones that feature our newest character, the summoner-dude, are the abc ones. Neat, huh? Also, just a word of warning? The 123 ones are kind wierd, and you can skip the first few chapters and go straight to the ABC ones without missing too much. But I'd rather you didn't, since i really enjoyed writing them. In ABC and abc, the format changes to a more typical form, with proper grammar and stuff. So if you dont like the 123, I'd love it if you gave the ABC a chance :^) Anyhow, I hope you enjoy it!
