The Crazy Demigod Returns

Blooming

[The video is a scene where Ha Yeon-woo, a returnee, hunts the so-called ‘Wendigo’, the third tier 6 monster that appeared on Earth.]

A few days passed, but not to mention online, various TV media showed the video of Ha Yeon-woo hunting Wendigo.

[…] … The world is paying attention to the future returnee Ha Yeon-woo’s move, and YBS plans to relay the subsequent auction hosted by the Department of Ability in real time… .]

“father. We have to get out soon.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

Ha Seong-cheol answers silently as always. He wore a black ring on the fourth finger of his right hand.

It was made by Ha Yeon-woo and handed over to him on the day he returned after dealing with the Wendigo. Even the deceased mother’s as a pair.

The past week after hunting Wendigo.

Governments of each country, media outlets, and social networking sites (SNS) heated up the 6th-tier monster that appeared for the third time in history, and Ha Yeon-woo, who treated it lightly alone.

Either that or not, Ha Yeon-woo and his son always spent their time stuck in the same hotel.

One special event between them. It means that they began to unravel each other’s anecdotes one by one.

Today, when the auction is taking place, the two of them have been talking about the time they have spent together.

“By the way, Yeonwoo.”

“Yes, Father.”

“After hearing your story, I have a question, but… . That bloom. Isn’t it equally possible here where there is mana?”

Ha Yeon-woo, who was about to open the door and leave, stopped.

why didn’t i think of that

flowering. It is different from the awakening called on Earth. It was the first step in becoming unmanned on the Pan continent.

flowering and awakening. Both of them meant the texture of becoming a warrior, feeling and using mana to become stronger.

However, unlike ‘awakening’, where the system makes you feel mana, creates circles, and injects basic knowledge, ‘gaehwa’ has the difference between heaven and earth that you have to build up knowledge and reach it through training.

The recorded history of the Pan continent is only about 7700 years.

Was there really no act of forcing humans to bloom during that long period of time?

you’re welcome. Even in ancient times, in the recent past, even before the arrival of Ha Yeon-woo, the act of forcing people to bloom was an occasional occurrence.

However, it was only limited to the very few nerds or aristocrats who had a lot of money and no talent.

It was for a simple reason. Because the flaws were so obvious.

First of all, there were too many things.

A high-ranking military officer with skills enough to inject mana into the body of an ordinary person and not hurt a single one, money, power, personal connections, and even the courage of the person who risked his life.

In addition, forced flowering is only giving the first button.

Even that was one of the things that could not be done without a great sense of qualification and desire for military personnel, and it was one of the acts that no one recommended because there was a high probability of dying or becoming a disabled person on the way.

It is said that it is the same as the degraded version of the deterioration of the system.

‘In the first place, a system that gains power without a price is crazy.’

Even if they succeeded in forced flowering beyond all of that, the limits were clear. If you’re lucky, you’ll be in the 3rd or 4th tier at most for the rest of your life.

It was an absurdly insufficient figure, considering that a self-enlightened warrior would reach the third rank on average after 10 years of steady training.

It was only natural that those who were not talented enough to feel mana in the first place were the target.

So, even in Ha Yeon-woo’s memory, that choice was erased cleanly. He hadn’t had a chance to interact with people for hundreds of years, so it wasn’t an area he was particularly interested in.

The circumstances of the Earth, where science and technology have developed tremendously, were more than Pan continents, but not less.

Because the structure of the system and the series of processes in which the Awoken were created were mobilized with tremendous funds and manpower to continue discussions and research.

Of course, the most active among them is the work of making humans into awakened people through artificial means.

Of course, since mana was born here 10 years ago, it was possible to study and practice on your own and bloom. only.

‘It’s absolutely impossible right now.’

I could have guessed this. A substance necessary to actually bloom mana. Because I had no knowledge about it and it was obvious that the information would be absent.

It’s not that one day, people suddenly realized what mana was because it was a pan continent, and learned how to use mana, including simbeop, and various magical knowledge.

For thousands of years, they lived on mana and accumulated knowledge and information one by one to create an environment.

From the Pan continent’s point of view, it was safe to say that the knowledge of mana possessed by humans on Earth today is at the level of fossil humans who have just used fire.

With the help of the overwhelmingly developed science technology or system, it won’t take thousands of years like Pan Continent, but it will take a minimum period of knowledge accumulation to create an environment that will bloom on its own.

It didn’t matter how many 6th or 7th tier Awakeners or Returners were on Earth.

They learned how to use mana, not the fundamental structure.

Just because you can use a vehicle doesn’t mean you can make a car. It wasn’t that you could be good at blacksmithing just because you used a sword well.

In the eyes of Ha Yeon-woo, the Awakeners of the Earth were novice drivers who only learned how to drive a car, and were children who only knew how to wield a sword.

Beings who can understand and make each part on their own, assemble a car, and even drive it.

He made a sword by pounding and grinding the solidified metal by applying heat. Those who know how to use it in battle.

That is the unmanned character defined by the pan continent and generally the path that everyone, including Ha Yeon-woo, walks.

The reality here is that the system replaces everything that becomes a process, so of course there is no possibility of flowering on its own.

Although it was not known what would happen in the near future if science and technology were combined.

And the one who escaped from all this reality is Ha Yeon-woo.

Beyond understanding mana, he transcended himself, and was good at using it enough to cut down a garden with just a handful of it.

He was the perfect condition to accomplish something more than forced flowering.

“Stupidly… .”

“huh? what?”

Ha Seong-cheol, overhearing the muttering, asked back.

Ha Yeon-woo turned around and looked back.

“father.”

innocent expression. As a father, he simply asked a light question innocently and innocently. Just like any other guy who has seen a fantasy action movie.

“huh? What’s going on?”

If there is a variable, it is that Ha Yeon-woo had the power to achieve it all.

“I think I can. Awakening.”

* * *

Due to a phone call from Ha Yeon-woo, the alpha and omega of this auction, the auction scheduled to be held at 2:00 pm in the basement of the Ministry of Special Ability Annex building was suddenly postponed.

And that’s because he only gave me the ambiguous guideline of ‘within an early hour’.

High-ranking officials and businessmen from around the world filled the annex to participate in the auction in advance with the Korean government, executives from a giant guild, and reporters gathered to film it.

By the time all of them are full of complaints from waiting over three hours.

[I will inform you. The auction will be held from 17:30 in a while, so distinguished guests… .]

Announcements translated into various languages, starting with Korean, began ringing in the annex.

that time. Ha Yeon-woo and his son were entering the site of the annex of the Ministry of Special Ability.

Woo-woo-woo-

“Huh… . This is so amazing.”

“father. You have to restrain yourself from here.”

Power was more valuable when hidden. It would be more helpful for safety reasons to treat my father as a normal person.

“Hmm. That, yes.”

Before leaving here, Ha Yeon-woo recalled an additional safety device from his father’s question.

The iron horn was also sweet, so he called Na Sang-gi and informed him on the spot. I have something urgent, so please wait.

Most of the participants in this auction, which are decided through government screening, are those who have one or more of the three extremes: money, power, and military force.

However, the corpse of a 6th tier monster. It even included magic stones, which could not be obtained except in this place right now.

Because the owner was Ha Yeon-woo right now.

Thanks to this, they had no choice but to keep their seats while spitting out all sorts of curse words.

I couldn’t even protest because I was afraid there would be disadvantages.

The result was the blue aura that hovered in Ha Seong-cheol’s hand a while ago and the five rings that sloppily move in the danteon each time.

‘It’s much faster than I thought. The level of perfection is perfect, too.’

It is Ha Yeon-woo’s state of mind to use nature’s mana as his own. His body didn’t need circles, so it didn’t even exist.

Perhaps thanks to this, the forced flowering was completed in about two hours, and it was so successful that it did not require any recovery period.

Weaving as many as five rings, whereas normal forced flowering only guarantees one circle.

‘I didn’t know that he would use it right away like that.’

only 30 minutes. It was the time it took for his father Ha Seong-cheol to succeed in putting mana into his fist.

It was such an outstanding talent that I wondered if the power of heredity was great for being able to have this ability.

Of course, everything was still messed up.

It was because he was in a state where he couldn’t do anything except raise his mana, and his physical ability was still that of a middle-aged man without the help of the system.

In a word, the balance was completely broken.

If he unreasonably raised his strength without protecting his body with mana and even gave out power, the bones in his fist would almost certainly be crushed.

I was very careful because of that.

Still, it was better than nothing. No, it was safe to say that even if the status quo was maintained at this level, there would be no harm to ordinary people or low-ranking Awakeners.

Even if you just pump out mana and go for defense, you’ll be able to withstand attacks below the 3rd level.

When I evaluated it coldly, it wasn’t even a talent that would stop here.

‘I’ll have to look at it whenever I have time.’

As soon as I entered the parking lot of the annex building, gathering my thoughts, a group of reporters who were not permitted to enter caught my eye.

“Current time is 5:17 PM, the auction is delayed by about three hours, and judging from the announcement that came out a while ago, it will be soon… .”

“The exact reason has not yet been officially revealed… .”

Some of the reporters and reporters eagerly tease their mouths thanks to the program organized in real time to relay the historical site.

On the other side of them, people who seemed to be employees of the Special Ability Department approached.

“Ha Yeon-woo? I am Cha Ji-yeon, manager of the by-product purchase department of the Gate Management Agency, who is in charge of the guidance.”

A young woman who greets quickly in a businesslike tone that no one will see. Judging from the fact that he spoke from the front as the representative, he seemed to be in charge.

“I’ll direct you right through the back door.”

It was delayed for a long time, so they were able to skip this and that procedure and head straight to the basement of the annex through the back door.

[I will inform you. The auction is about to start soon… .]

Ha Yeon-woo arrived here and the second announcement was already ringing.

The basement of the annex, which would normally be used as an auditorium, clearly exuded the atmosphere of a banquet hall.

“The seats are 5 rows of round tables for 8 people. A total of 25 are set. The 40 people seated at the front are distinguished guests from friendly countries or countries that have given a word to the government in advance, followed by businessmen and people from large guilds. From the far left, the Ministry of Defense of Japan… .”

“It’s done.”

Perhaps she was trying to brag about her memory, she cut off her words as she tried to recite her name.

It didn’t matter who was here, or which country, company, or organization bought Wendigo’s corpse.

It feels like thorns are growing on your tongue to honor you after hundreds of years.

It was not voluntary. My father scolded me for treating Na Sang-gi so badly, so I’m just fixing it forcibly.

If he was proud of having lived like that for over a thousand years, he raised the white flag when he was told to speak kindly to himself.

Still, it didn’t feel too bad.

Should I say that it feels like living like a human being?

My father, who just happened to meet his eyes, was smiling. like it’s arrogant.

“Then I’ll guide you to your seat right away.”

We were guided to the front row closest to the podium. Among them, it was right in the middle of the five tables.

Who is the owner of this auction? The government’s intention to let people know who was in Korea was revealed.

Tumble- Tumble-

The suit sent to the hotel by the government in advance was pleasantly wrapped around the ideal body.

The exceptionally loud sound of Manager Cha Ji-yeon’s high heels and Ha Yeon-woo’s father and son’s heels erased the surrounding noise one by one.

It was the moment when the veiled, overwhelming forceful returnee appeared at the official statue.
