“Kim Woo-jin, why did you betray me?”

Kim Woo-jin who was bound to the chair didn’t answer when the soft voice echoed in the tent .

Instead, he pleaded .

“I have never betrayed you . ”

Isaac Ivanov didn’t respond to his plea .

Instead, he asked another question .

“Can you bet your life on those words?”

“Huh?”

Kim Woo-jin was surprised .

Isaac Ivanov gestured with his chin to a Skeleton Soldier standing in a corner of the tent .

Rattle!

Then, the Skeleton Soldier flashed Achilles’ Sword in its hand .

“You say you didn’t betray me . I’d be happy to believe you if you took your life to prove yourself . ”

Kim Woo-jin clenched his jaws at those words .

His eyes shook .

How long had it been?

“If my death is what you need to prove it, then I’ll gladly do so . ”

As if it had been waiting for Kim Woo-jin to say those words, the Skeleton Soldier cut the rope that bound Kim Woo-jin to the chair .

This should not have been an easy task .

The rope used to bind players was naturally special, yet the skeleton’s sword cut through it like it was a string .

Kiik, Kiik!

The rope, which was extremely durable, began to snap one after the other, setting Kim Woo-jin free .

Rattle!

The Skeleton Soldier then retreated back to its position .

Rattle!

And as it stepped back, it threw Achilles’ Sword, which it had been holding, to Kim Woo-jin’s feet .

Naturally, everyone’s attention became focused on Kim Woo-jin, who had been set free, and the sword at his feet .

Ssk!

With a dragging sound, Kim Woo-jin picked up the sword .

Puk!

Then he stabbed it into his own stomach .

“Mm!”

Kim Woo-jin’s face contorted as he felt the pain of the blade piercing into his belly, and a fishy smell filled the room as his blood began to drip down to his feet .

A puddle of blood appeared on the floor in an instant .

“Isaac . ”

Kim Woo-jin, who was bleeding heavily, called out Isaac Ivanov’s name, and Isaac Ivanov raised his head to look at Kim Woo-jin .

The two looked into each other’s eyes .

That was why no one noticed .

That the blood beneath Kim Woo-jin’s feet had suddenly come to life .

Tuk!

The blood he shed had become a Blood Golem which immediately tried to destroy the camera they were filming with .

“Isaac!”

As Isaac Ivanov turned around to see what was happening, Kim Woo-jin shouted his name once again as he rushed towards him .

He brandished Achilles’ Sword, which had been stabbed into his stomach, towards Isaac Ivanov .

…

-Isaac!

It was at that moment .

When Kim Woo-jin shouted Isaac Ivanov’s name, the camera suddenly lost its balance and fell to the floor, and all that could be heard through the live broadcast was the sound of static and a faint rumbling .

-What was that? What’s happening?

-Fuck, what’s going on?

As a result, the chat which had fallen silent because of the unexpected situation became lively once again .

Because the live broadcast showed no signs of being fixed, the people naturally began to talk to each other .

-Kim Woo-jin was a traitor?

-Kim Woo-jin just attacked Isaac Ivanov, didn’t he?

-Isn’t this too much like a movie? Is this really a live broadcast? Are we sure they’re not filming a movie?

-What the fuck is going on?

Of course, it wasn’t really a conversation .

Everyone just spat out what they thought without stopping .

Even Oh Se-chan’s office was the same .

“Hey, what the hell’s going on?”

“Kim Woo-jin attacked Isaac Ivanov?”

Furthermore, the confusion they felt was more pronounced because they knew the truth about Isaac Ivanov and Kim Woo-jin’s identities .

Only one person seemed satisfied with this situation as he had a soft smile on his lips, Oh Se-chan .

When the world was once again descending into chaos because of the unknown situation, Isaac Ivanov once again appeared before the camera .

Without wasting any time, Isaac Ivanov spoke briefly .

-From this moment on, the Saviour Guild is hereby disbanded . (TL: Poor Master Park Yong-wan)

It was a short but utterly shocking statement .

But what came next was even more shocking

-And I would like to formally request to join the Messiah Guild .

Isaac Ivanov requested to join the Messiah Guild .

…

Isaac Ivanov’s return was something no one could have expected .

Then the betrayal of Isaac Ivanov’s closest aide, Kim Woo-jin was revealed, and the broadcast was suddenly ended .

-From this moment on, the Saviour Guild is hereby disbanded .

And when the disbandment of the Saviour Guild was announced after the chaos, the situation reached an indescribable state, and it honestly became impossible for anyone to properly judge what exactly was going on .

It was the moment when the world’s thought circuits had basically exploded .

To put it into computer terms, the computer had been shut down .

Then, as the computer began to reboot once again, Isaac Ivanov said .

-And I would like to formally request to join the Messiah Guild .

He revealed information that was even more shocking .

-What did he say?

-Isaac Ivanov requested to join the Messiah Guild? Formally?

-Wait! Doesn’t that Mean Isaac Ivanov would become a member of the Messiah Guild?

On the other hand, it was news that everyone in the world thought they would only be able to see in their dreams .

This was natural .

People around the world watched the competitions between the Messiah Guild and Saviour Guild and cheered for either side, but the thing they wanted to see the most, was for these two Guilds to merge .

Lee Se-jun and Isaac Ivanov, these two saviours, united to save the world .

And now the wishes of countless people in the world had actually come true at this moment .

Of course, the Messiah Guild still had to give an answer, but no one really paid much attention to that part .

“It’s a wonderful story . ”

Oh Se-chan clapped lightly at this fact .

“Two heroes competing to save the world, one of them is betrayed and decides to join the other… how about it? Doesn’t that sound good enough to make a Hollywood movie?”

At those words, Oh Se-chan’s subordinates could only stare at him with their mouths open, speechless .

They had prepared to face some kind of unexpected scenario .

But who would have imagined something so extraordinary?

Oh Se-chan smiled slightly when he saw his subordinates’ reactions .

Woowoong!

Then the old, worn out feature phone in Oh Se-chan’s pocket began vibrating, and he couldn’t help but smile wider .

“Now I get to talk to the lead actor . ”

…

-Were your acting skills always this good?

At Oh Se-chan’s words, Kim Woo-jin looked at the blazing flames surrounding the burning tent in front of him and said .

“What about the others?”

-We’re monitoring them in real time, but there hasn’t been any movement yet . Well, it’s obvious how things will turn out anyway .

The earthquake-like situation caused by Isaac Ivanov had shaken the world .

And of course, the tsunami was coming next .

-Park Yong-wan will be the most hurried .

“I suppose so . ”

Among them, the one whose situation was most urgent was Park Yong-wan, who’d colluded with Kim Woo-jin to get rid of Isaac Ivanov .

-In a situation where Isaac Ivanov was thought to be dead, it was none other than Park Yong-wan who had the most to gain .

That was always the case .

Whenever a crime like murder occured, the people who had the most to gain from the victim’s death were always the first suspects .

So from that perspective, it was natural for Park Yong-wan to be the most suspicious one in this situation .

Since Isaac Ivanov was trapped in the dungeon, all of the authority of the giant guild, which could threaten even the Messiah Guild, had been entrusted to Park Yong-wan .

-Him, Shakira and Johann Georg will definitely meet to discuss countermeasures .

Shakira and Johann Georg, who had also been a part of the plan, would also meet to discuss what they should do .

-Kim Woo-jin was caught, so there is no guarantee that they couldn’t also get caught .

With Kim Woo-jin being punished as a traitor, they had no choice but to keep the worst case situation of them suffering the same fate in mind .

-Well, the conclusion that they’ll reach is also obvious .

But the options that they could take were obvious .

“They have no choice but to dismantle the Saviour Guild first . ”

-That’s right .

Isaac Ivanov had already announced the dissolution of the Saviour Guild .

In such a situation, what would happen if they defied such an order?

It would be the same as confessing that they were the ones who tried to kill Isaac Ivanov .

After all, since Isaac Ivanov had returned, he once again became the master and owner of the Saviour Guild .

Park Yong-wan, Shakira and Johann Georg had finally managed to reach a peak that they could only look at before .

Nevertheless, it was not a good thing to stand in Isaac Ivanov’s way just to protect this crown .

“After that, they’ll contact the Messiah Guild . ”

So, following Isaac Ivanov’s words, they would also contact the Messiah Guild .

Since Isaac Ivanov himself had requested to join the Messiah Guild, this was the natural choice .

-They will surrender themselves without asking for any conditions .

Of course, there would be no such thing as a deal during the process .

They would surrender just so they could save their lives .

-However, the Messiah Guild will just look at their proposals .

However, the Messiah Guild would never give them an easy answer .

-No, they’re even going to hold off answering Isaac Ivanov’s question as much as they could .

Furthermore, the Messiah Guild would delay responding to Isaac Ivanov’s request to join their guild .

They had to do that .

“Because they don’t have a choice . ”

From the Messiah Guild’s perspective, their answer was already set in stone .

-Right, there’s no way they can deny Isaac Ivanov’s request to join their guild . Lee Se-jun, who has now become the only saviour, could never do that . No matter what .

Above all, Isaac Ivanov’s request to join the Messiah Guild was the same as declaring to the world that he recognized Lee Se-jun as the only saviour .

The Messiah Guild was right!

Lee Se-jun was the saviour who would save the world!

In such a situation, the Messiah Guild would have no choice but to play the role of the perfect saviour better than ever before .

-That’s why they’ll make more mistakes .

That’s why they had to worry even more .

-They had to prepare in the shortest time possible . Prepare to kill Isaac Ivanov .

After all, they had to prepare to kill Isaac Ivanov .

-The best of the best around the world, the real members of the Messiah Guild would have to be called out .

Of course, the members would be all those who pretended to be saviours to deceive the world, those who knew the truth about the Messiah Guild .

It was a great opportunity to dig it up from the roots .

That was why Kim Woo-jin had prepared and acted for so long .

There were countless great players gathered under the name Lee Se-jun .

So there was only one thing left .

-So are you confident?

Whether he was truly capable of hunting those who pretended to be saviours in order to devour the world .

Kim Woo-jin answered this question .

“I’m confident . ”

-Good, then I’ll move as planned .

The call ended after that, and Kim Woo-jin destroyed the feature phone in his hand before placing it in a plastic bag .

Lee Jin-ah, who had been listening carefully to their conversation, then said .

“Why did you put it in a plastic bag? Wouldn’t it be better to just throw it in the fire over there?”

It didn’t make sense to wrap it up separately when there was a fire that could burn the evidence .

“Because this isn’t a movie . ”

However, that was only seen in movies .

Unless the fire was hellfire, which would disintegrate the phone completely, the fire would only melt the feature phone, leaving the possibility for evidence to be found .

Lee Jin-ah laughed at Kim Woo-jin’s answer .

“Didn’t you just film a movie?”

After saying that, Lee Jin-ah pretended to stab himself in the stomach .

“I will commit suicide to prove myself!”

After that, he pretended to pull out the sword and shouted .

“Isaac!”

And he acted the same way Kim Woo-jin had .

“Kuh, it was amazing . ”

Lee Jin-ah smiled teasingly at Kim Woo-jin .

“You will definitely receive an Oscar at the end of the year . Best Actor Award for Isaac Ivanov, and Best Supporting Actor for Kim Woo-jin . ”

Then, as though he just remembered something, Lee Jin-ah said .

“Wait, but what about Balmung?”

Balmung was the weapon Kim Woo-jin had borrowed from the Dragon Slayer to kill Isaac Ivanov .

But now, Kim Woo-jin had failed his task, and had even died .

So what would happen to Balmung?

Kim Woo-jin answered calmly .

“That’s the Dragon Slayer’s problem . ”

To this, Lee Jin-ah said .

“And the Dragon Slayer will receive the Pushover Award . ”

Kim Woo-jin simply turned his back to Lee Jin-ah, who could only click his tongue .

It was clear that he was ready to leave, so Lee Jin-ah followed him while saying .

“What’s the plan for the future?”

“The plan from now on is simple . Join the Messiah Guild and enter a dungeon with Lee Se-jun . ”

Lee Jin-ah couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious .

“But isn’t that too dangerous? If they have the time to prepare, regardless of if you say…”

It wasn’t a good thing to give your enemy too much time to prepare for battle .

“That’s right . ”

Kim Woo-jin also knew this .

“Therefore we have to shake them a little so that they won’t be able to prepare fully . ”

Kim Woo-jin truly began planning to put his sword in Lee Se-jun’s chest .
