Overlord of Blood and Iron

“Your second Majesty, her third Majesty Lee Chae-Rin has suffered losses consecutively...”

“Her third Majesty was able to summon the Spirit King but lost...”

“Esmeralda is about to fall to the enemies!”

“The soldiers are discouraged... at this rate...”

“His Majesty Dorian Explorer has been injured...”

The situation was getting worse.

Husband...! Ninetails bit her red lips. When are you coming... the kingdom needs you...

The absence of Kang Chul-In had a great effect. Of course, it was true that Kang Chul-In was 50% of the Valhalla Kingdom’s manpower, but this was too much. What kind of army was the Valhalla Kingdom? Soldiers in the Valhalla Kingdom were trained intensely like every fight was to the death. Moreover, they were a military that had only experienced victories. A hundred percent winning rate. The Valhalla Kingdom’s soldiers were the strongest in Pangaea, but such an army was falling apart.

It wasn’t because Kang Chul-In was absent. The enemies were just too strong.

A mysterious legion of 500,000 monsters and the Ancient Empire, with the demon Saturnus. It was because they were being attacked by these two great forces.

“Husband... please come back soon.”

It was a desperate self-muttering.

“Y-Your second Majesty...!”

It was then.

“Something bad has happened... sad news...!”

A messenger quickly ran into the hall and bowed in front of Ninetails.

“What... is it.”

Ninetails asked with an exhausted face. She was tired. Every piece of bad news that came was horrible. Things were so bad that she thought they couldn’t get worse.

“The commander of the White Lion Knights...”

“...!”

“Sir Mikael...”

“No way...”

“In the battle against Ancient Empire soldiers...”

Ninetails felt her heart dropping to the ground. What kind of knight was Mikael? He was the master of internal affairs who had made Balnibarbi of rural Pandemonium into the second capital, along with Captain James. The man who Kang Chul-In had left Balnibarb to had died in battle.

It was something she didn’t want to believe.

“I... see.”

Ninetails tried to hide her feelings of despair.

“His body.”

So she asked in the steadiest voice possible.

“Were they able to bring the body back?”

“T-That’s...”

“Answer me.”

“...!”

“I asked if they retrieved the body.”

“They weren’t... able to... retrieve Sir Mikael’s body...”

“Are you being serious right now!?”

Ninetails roared. She exploded.

“Your second Majesty...!”

“He was given stars by the kingdom but you weren’t able to retrieve his body!?”

“B-But... the situation on the battlefield was too disadvantageous to us...”

“Shut up!”

“I-I apologize...”

The messenger didn’t know what to do.

Nine tails were waving in a threatening manner behind Ninetails.

“Please... step back...”

“Yes, your second Majesty...”

“Whew...!”

Ninetails couldn’t hold in her blazing fury. She knew that it was funny to be angry at the fact that the body wasn’t retrieved properly, but there was nothing else she could do. One of the kingdom’s pillars had fallen at the continued losses. It was hard for her to reign in her anger...

If only Tactician Kwak was here...!

Kwak Jung was half-disabled from the overuse of his ability, so he couldn’t strategize and plan for any battle tactics. No, strategizing and planning aside, he was barely living day by day with Alfred’s Blood Heal.

“Husband has to come back...”

There was no solution. The only one, if there was one, was Kang Chul-In. He had to come back for the soldiers to feel encouraged again and fight back against the enemies.

“If Husband comes back...”

It was then.

Boom! With a loud explosion, the Lord’s Hall began to shake.

“...!”

While everyone was shocked at the sudden commotion,

“Aaaack!”

Someone’s scream rang out in the Lord’s Hall. That wasn’t the end, however.

“Stop!”

“Stop them. We have to protect the Lord’s Hall!”

“Stay calm! Endure!”

“Emergency, emergency!”

“It’s an enemy.”

Shouts of the guards outside of the Lord’s Hall could be heard.

“...”

The shouts didn’t last long, however.

Silence. The frantic commotion stopped instantly. Then, footsteps approached them.

“...!”

Ninetails shivered after hearing the sound.

This is...! She didn’t have a good feeling about it. Demon.

That was the only word that she could think of. The being outside was scary, although they were only standing outside of the Lord’s Hall.

Boom! With an explosive sound, the door to the Lord’s Hall burst open.

And,

“Hehe...!”

A demon with a cruel smile showed itself.

“Y-You are!” Ninetails recognized the demon at once. “T-The Emperor of Lunacy and Night...”

Why wouldn’t she? If one knew the Emperor of Blood and Iron, they would know the Emperor of Lunacy and Night as well. The story of how he killed his father a thousand years ago to become emperor was still a famous one.

“Oho.” Saturnus laughed at Ninetails. “Ninetails... I heard you’re one of my son’s women. Kek... a whore with nine tails... my son’s preference is quite interesting...”

“Shut up.” Ninetails exuded a cold aura. “How dare you come in here?”

“Kek... I guess you have a temper?”

“I don’t know how you came back to life... but I’ll split your stomach apart and chew up your liver... you bastard.”

Ninetails was scary. There wasn’t any cuteness in her words, at all. Her seductive eyes were filled with violence and enmity.

“Hehe...!” But Saturnus didn’t even blink at Ninetails’s threat. “My daughter-in-law.”

“You crazy...! Who are you calling your daughter-in-law?”

“Do you think that mouth will still be running while under my stomach?”

“...!”

“Even while taking my seed? Kek, kek, kek...! How amusing... very. I’m already excited. He... hehe!”

Saturnus wasn’t in his right mind. He never was, but it was worse now. He was mad at the thought of being able to ravish Kang Chul-In’s wives and his daughter.

“Come here.” Saturnus began to move towards Ninetails. “I’ll wake your lustful instinct... hehehe.”

It was then.

“Stop!” With a clear beautiful voice, a girl of about seventeen years old stepped into the Lord’s Hall.

“A-Arshelly!” Ninetails shouted frantically.

Yes. The girl was Arshelly, transformed into an Arknight. Kang Chul-In’s daughter had appeared to protect the Lord’s Hall from Saturnus.

“Run away, quick! Escape now!”

“No, mom!”

“Listen to mom! Go now!”

“I won’t run away!” Arshelly didn’t listen to Ninetails’s orders to leave. “I’ll be punished for this later... Mom.”

“It’s dangerous! That demon is...”

“I know, Mom!”

Why wouldn’t she know? Arshelly was a princess born between the Emperor of Blood and Iron and Brynhildr. The blood of Aurangzeb, the imperial family, was flowing inside of her. Furthermore, Arshelly was a true jack of all trades who was skilled in everything. There was no way she wouldn’t know that Saturnus was dangerous.

“But, I can’t stop.” Arshelly’s resolve was like Kang Chul-In’s. “We cannot give this Lord’s Hall in any situation!”

“B-But...!”

“Mom, I’m also a part of the royal family of Valhalla. With dad not here, I have to step up! It’s the responsibility of the royal family! Dad taught me that! From father to daughter, from king of Valhalla Kingdom to princess!”

She was right. Yes, it was something that the royal family had to do. Kang Chul-In didn’t raise Arshelly like a flower in a greenhouse. He taught her about the responsibilities of being in the royal family. He taught her properly instead of spoiling her.

“Daughter...!”

Ninetails was proud of Arshelly. What a beautiful heart she had. She wasn’t her biological daughter, but Arshelly was so lovable.

“Kek...” Saturnus had a huge grin on his face. “Black hair... those red eyes... you... have the blood of our family. Kek... you’re a child with my blood. Then... you are my true granddaughter... Julius’ daughter.”

“I don’t know a grandfather like you.” Arshelly firmly denied any ties she had to Saturnus. “So shut that disgusting mouth.”

She got ready to fight. It was fitting of Kang Chul-In’s daughter.

“Kek... fine... go ahead.” Saturnus had a mad smile as he began to approach Arshelly. “Let’s see what tricks my granddaughter can do... kek kek kek...!”

***

Seoul, South Korea, in front of the 63 Building in Yeouido...

Brrr...! The flagship model of the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG screeched to a stop. As the gull-wing door, the symbol of the SLS AMG, opened, Kang Chul-In came out.

“Huh?”

“K-Kang Chul-In?”

“Is it really Kang Chul-In?”

“Whoa...”

The people in front of the 63 Building all whispered to each other. After the dungeon gate incident, Kang Chul-In was a hero and a hot celebrity. He was also one of the richest men on Earth. He earned millions every year with Galaxy Corporation.

Moreover, after the dungeon gate incident, Kang Chul-In and his family (although there weren’t many) were exempted from taxes from the South Korean government as a sign of gratitude.

Kang Chul-In’s influence had also reached far beyond South Korea. The United States, China, and Japan all wanted to work with him.

Not to mention, he was a hero who saved South Korea from the monster wave. His name would be recorded in textbooks. Kang Chul-In had everything a man could ever dream of.

“Excuse me... are you Kang Chul-In?”

“Mr. Kang Chul-In, can we take a picture together?”

“Heuk... Mr. Kang Chul-In... my child survived because of you! Thank you!”

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Kang Chul-In!”

People rushed around him.

In the end, it’s here...

However, he didn’t have the mind to worry about them. Kang Chul-In was reminiscing about the past. This 63 Building was where everything began.

And Kang Chul-In...

Everything will be finished soon.

The 63 Building was a special place to him.

“Let’s go.” Kang Chul-In began to move.

“Okay, Oppa.” Han Ye-Sun followed him.

***

The Warp Gate inside the Lord’s Hall flashed and Kang Chul-In and Han Ye-Sun appeared.

“...”

Kang Chul-In became speechless after seeing his surroundings. It was a mess. His brilliant throne was broken into pieces. The corpses of multiple people were lying on the floor.

“H-Husband... you’ve come...” Ninetails greeted him tiredly.

And...

“D-Dad...!” Arshelly was with her.

Kang Chul-In ground his teeth after seeing Arshelly. His lovable daughter was in a horrible state. Her clothes were all ripped, her hair was messed up, and there were clumps of blood on her skin.

As a father, he felt horrible.

“Hehe...!” Just then, a burst of evil laughter rang in his ear. “Long time so see, son.”

The Emperor of Lunacy and Night, Saturnus, the demon from hell, was smiling at him.

“I was just about to play a fun game with my granddaughter, but you came at just the right time...! Ke...!”

“...”

“After I take you apart, I’ll ravish my cute grand...”

Before he could finish, Saturnus’s head was whipped around.

“Kuk...!” He gasped for breath. His black hair was in Kang Chul-In’s hand. Kang Chul-In then slammed Saturnus’ head onto the ground.

“Kyak!” Saturnus screamed. “You...”

Saturnus growled in a low voice.

“You touched something you shouldn’t have, you son of a bitch.”

At the same time, Kang Chul-In began to grind Saturnus’ face onto the floor of the Lord’s Hall.
