《Faceless Phantom》Chapter 30.5 - Meanwhile IRL
Advertisement
A good-looking man in a suit was knocking on a door.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
As no one answered, he looked at his phone. 16.35 was showed on the screen, then he put it back in his suit.
A few seconds later, the door opened and an old man was appeared behind it.
"Are you from the game company?"
"Yes. My name is Lee Kang Dae." He answered as he gave the old man his business card. "Can you show me where he is?"
"Yeah. Follow me."
After taking the business card, the old man stepped outside and closed the door. Then he led Kang Dae to a small house one block from there.
The old man opened the door and they went in.
The house was surprisingly neat and everything was placed nicely, even though it was supposed to be a NEET's home. The old man, the caretaker, might be cleaning the house everyday. However, Kang Dae's gaze was wandering about as if he was searching for something. And he finally noticed an item which was very out of place within the room. It was the VL-Pod.
Kang Dae's face became serious as they came closer to the pod, and his eyes were observing every part of it. The old man couldn't fathom what Kang Dae was doing, so he just stood there watching him circling the pod multiple times.
After checking all the details, he took out his phone and bowed to the old man.
"Excuse me for a minute. I need to report this first."
"S-sure."
He stepped outside the house and called someone on his contact list.
[Hello.]
"Hello, sunbae-nim. This is Lee Kang Dae reporting."
[How is it?]
"It's also modified, sunbae-nim."
[So, he is the seventh.]

A sigh could be heard over the phone.
[This will be a problem, otherwise it can also become our advantage.]
They were in silence for a moment. Then Kang Dae hesitantly asked.
"What should I do, sunbae-nim?"
[I think, you need to move him ASAP. Bring him to the new place. I'll send the others there as well. Also, please don't forget to cover him and move in discreet.]
"Understood, sunbae-nim."
He went inside again to do what he ordered to do. Seeing him entered the house, the old man opened his mouth.
"So, I heard that your company wanna take care of him?"
"Yes. We will take full responsibility about this matter."
"Thank God, you pick him up. He is a pain in the ass. Don't forget to tell him that he needs to pay all his debts when he wakes up from that thing."
"Yes. But before that, I need you to sign some papers first."
"Fine. As long as this leech is gone, I'll do anything to get rid of him."
When everything was done, Kang Dae brought a black case to the pod. He took out a device from the case and put it on the pod, then he pressed some buttons on it. Once there was a beep sound, multiple green lights were on.
After that, some people went in and began to cover the pod with wooden crate. Then they lift the wooden crate outside and put it inside a big trailer.
Lee Kang Dae bowed to the old man before he got inside his car. Then he drove his car following by the truck with the trailer.

Cosmic Plague
In this world, everyone is cursed with a single fate: Become the most powerful. But those who do become powerful, they hate it. Power is misery and death is the solace. လလလ Nazar, a weapon of mass destruction created by the ancient God of Destruction revolted against his creator a long time ago. While he did defeat his creator, the power he was given is still within him. He is cursed with infinite power, standing at the top of the celestial hierarchy. He has more power and wealth than he needs. But even then, he craves one thing; death. He wants to die. Power is misery and death is the solace, but he cannot achieve his only goal. He cannot die. Perhaps that will change when one day, an ancient cosmic Goddess rises from her grave? Perhaps she will finally kill him? Or will she fall short before his awesome yet terrible power? Only time will tell. This is a high cosmic story about the hypocritical life of the protagonist and how it affects everyone (and everything) around him. Naturally, it features very overpowered characters with a lot of high stakes battles roaming across the cosmos. Warning: Swearing, some suggestive sexual gestures/words, gore. Feedback is highly welcomed. (The story was originally named, God's Return, but I wanted to change it.)
