Life Mission

Queen Bomb Ant’s body split in half in a vertical solid line in front of him. Cha Jun Sung can be seen in between the two halves.

“Arrogant bitch.”

To rebel against a king, one must hide their intentions until they have the means to bring on action. That is how they can take a hit.

Queen Bomb Ant is the worst in that aspect.

She complained multiple times to a predator who is much stronger than she is.

If she had just obeyed him, he would have helped her maintain her power, but it was too late.

He killed her himself just as he had decided he would.

Boom boom boom!

The Queen Bomb Ant is the Bomb Ants’ matrix.

When this constancy was cut off, the surviving Bomb Ants from Ant Hell all committed suicide.

The flying Bomb Ants had been annihilated and there had been thousands of ground-based ones, but not a single one stayed alive. It is true annihilation.

The Rage guild and Bomb Ants are all dead.

There is only Cha Jun Sung.

Cha Jun Sung took clothing and his PDA out of the space compression bag he had left hidden. He left the battlesuit.

Mission complete.

He doesn’t need it.

Beep beep!

All he did was put it on his wrist, but the PDA turned on.

Cha Jun Sung wasn’t even surprised. He had moved deliberately. Tracking him wouldn’t have been hard.

Papat!

As soon as the PDA turned on, a large hologram came up as a turning 3D model of a single mutant.

A description of the mutant is next to the figure.

The mutant’s name is Black Lord.

It is written in Korean for Cha Jun Sung, and it contains everything that Life Mission has investigated until now.

Woong!

Another hologram comes up.

The subject is Cha Jun Sung. It is as though the two are meant to be compared.

[What happened?]

It isn’t hard to respond to Odin’s question.

So he answered.

“The same person.”

[... Are you saying Black Lord and Lifer Cha Jun Sung are?]

“Aren’t you guys the ones who connected the two worlds through Life Mission? There’s a slight time difference, but of course they’re the same people.”

Cha Jun Sung speaks bluntly.

Odin knows what he’s saying, but he hadn’t imagined this would be the extent. There are only six.

That number exceeded limits among every living thing on the planet.

A virus was first spread in the world inside the mission. They spread it in a gap in dimensions, so it was impossible for people of the times to identify the cause.

It was random.

They hadn’t been able to discriminate between who became a mutant and how they were evolving. It’s because they can’t investigate each person. They had started to get a handle over the system when the mutant food chain became configured.

Until then, they had only observed.

They opened another dimension after with the game’s frame as the reality version, a training center where Lifers could become educated on Life Mission.

It was on a registered account basis, so they were able to distinguish those who are talented.

They hadn’t suspected that they may be the same people because of this difference.

[Then inside there too?]

“I guess I’d have to say he recognized me? Black Lord recognized me. We talked a little too.”

Odin is referring to the dark tent.

He confessed everything excluding personal matters.

The only thing that the supervisors and helpers don’t know about now, is the 3rd person in their relationship.

Cha Jun Sung doesn’t know about this issue either.

He left it out because he doesn’t know if they’ll be able to meet or what will happen going forward. They’ll be busy with the fact that he and Black Lord are the same people as it is.

[Lifer Cha Jun Sung, do you know who has evolved to level 9?]

“Other than me?”

[Cruel King, Sea God, and Bon Load can’t know, but White Queen and Evil Queen were humans, so there is one of them in each world.]

It is already in the past. Nothing will happen if he tells.

“I don’t know. I wouldn’t tell you even if I did.”

Cha Jun Sung cut him off bluntly.

He can guarantee 99% that they will drag him off as a subject for experiments. He was a bonus sample unlike the other mutants inside missions.

At this moment, they could choose to be active as a Lifer or to live a normal life. That is their personal lives. He doesn’t want to interfere.

“Or just open another dimension and use me as a sample.”

[We used a tremendous amount of human and material resources in opening just the two.]

[It seems simple when looking at just the results, but the effort to go through that process is unmeasurable.]

“Then just leave it.”

He has no intention of becoming a pawn.

One time is bound to become two times, and two times becomes three.

His business with the supervisors is done as well. He was promised protection from Borteth when he took care of Tyrant. They have each traded one thing.

“I want to go back.”

[Wait. Shall we talk before you go back?]

The voice coming through the PDA is not Odin.

Cha Jun Sung thought that it was Gabenu. He is the only person who would be talking to him right now.

Woong!

A summons gate opens in front of Cha Jun Sung.

Jigneon and another middle-aged man come out.

The 3rd supervisor, Gabenu.

“How surprising...”

What do they want that they have appeared before him?

He’ll get to see all of the supervisors at this rate. Since there are three of them, he only needs to see Borteth.

“I’ll get to the point. There’s no reason for you to help us with our work, but there’s also no reason for you to get in the way. I’ll ask. Are you a Lifer or a mutant?”

Cha Jun Sung couldn’t answer right away.

If a Lifer’s focus is matched to humans, Cha Jun Sung is not a Lifer. He could be called a mutant.

“I guess I’m a mutant?”

“I guess you could say that.”

“We left you alone because up to level 8 is acceptable, but it becomes completely different when you’re level 9. You can’t go into level S missions.”

This is nonsense.

Cha Jun Sung is confused. They appeared out of nowhere and are telling him that he can’t go into level S missions. This is unacceptable.

“Do you think it will be possible for a level S Lifer to raid level 9s?”

“... If it’s a party.”

“Good point. You’re right. It might be possible if it is a party with level S Lifers fully set with 10 stages of body modifications and 10-combination battlesuits. The problem here?”

Cha Jun Sung didn’t speak.

Gabenu knows what he is trying to say as well. A party of 10 people means 10 level S Lifers.

If the target is just one level 9, five or six people could have enough power. But they have to consider the level 8s that follow level 9s.

When Tyrant died, Cha Jun Sung became the only level S Lifer. To become level S, they need to go through level A advancement. They need to complete a mission at the same level as Deep Sea Teeth.

“We calculated it and if the World Federation tries level A advancement, about 2 or 3 people would be able to advance. The problem is that everyone else would die. You know well that going through missions with stronger Lifers doesn’t guarantee advancement.”

He knows.

Even if he tries to help others advance after he advanced from World Federation, it doesn’t work. It ends up being that he advanced, so he acts on his own.

There are about 30 level A Lifers in the world.

Of those, a few need to wait until level Bs grow. How long will that take?

“What if you enter level S in this situation? You’ll probably complete it. Then what choice will you make to complete it?”

If he can’t complete it with the strength of a Lifer, he will use his strength as a level 9 mutant. His identity has already been exposed. There’s no reason to hide it.

“Completing a mission with mutant strength? We’re testing Lifers and mutants to see who is superior. We don’t want there to be in-species fighting. There’s nothing we can do if it occurs naturally, but we can’t accept it if it comes artificially.”

It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t use his mutant strength, but they are saying that he can’t use it. If he does, he can’t go into level S missions.

It is too hard to do alone.

He needs to either wait until other Lifers advance, or go into level A missions with his battlesuit.

“We’ll sanction you if you try to take shortcuts and go into lower levels to get special missions. We’ll do whatever it takes, whether it is intervention.”

Cha Jun Sung’s face convulsed and his eyes became dark red. It is as though they turned into glass marbles.

“Whatever it takes?”

“I overreacted. I’ll apologize. That’s how important this matter is. Anyway, we’ll limit the level 9 strength you use inside missions.”

To the supervisors, Cha Jun Sung is something strange that came out of nowhere.

They can’t control it and they don’t have the authority to do so.

If they want Life Mission to run properly, they can’t let him go around in missions as a mutant with strong and transcendent power.

“Now you say that?”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Whose fault is this that I’ve become like this? Who created Life Mission? You created this mess and now you’re saying you’re going to kick me out?”

The clothes he just put on begins to rip. He hadn’t been able to suppress his swelling power. The floor becomes dented under his incredible weight.

Cha Jun Sung’s aura is so murderous that even level 8s would whimper in fear, but Gabenu looked unconcerned.

“Well this.”

It seems that their honest thoughts had touched on the feelings that Cha Jun Sung had been suppressing. It is possible for him to see this as a provocation.

“You want me to quit after all of this?”

9 eyes look over Gabenu.

He has no intention of killing Gabenu. He just needs to take back what he said. All he needs to do is give him his pride.

“We did create Life Mission. The operators are saying that they will block an account because of a bug. Isn’t it weird to argue that?”

Gabenu countered him with his own logic.

Cha Jun Sung felt it.

An argument won’t end this. Gabenu shows no signs of yielding.

“You said that you would do whatever it takes if I don’t listen, right?”

“Right.”

“Then try it.”

He is accepting.

He won’t use level 9 strength inside missions.

“Jigneon could probably beat you, but the probability is 50/50 in my case, so it’s fair. Since we each have our own thoughts.”

Gabenu relaxes his backward stance.

The opponent is a Lifer and level 9 mutant. He has a completely different combat ark from existing mutants.

“Did you know? Apparently, your name is Asura. Isn’t it cool? I came up with it.”

Supervisors manage levels S and A missions instead of helpers. Gabenu has authority because Jigneon and Borteth can’t be reached.

“I chose Asura because of your appearance... but also because I expected this situation. That you would go against us if I tried to bring sanctions.”

Cha Jun Sung could kind of understand what he was saying, but there were also things he couldn’t.

“For this moment at least... I’ll become the Sakra that can overpower Asura.”
