Chapter 206
Redesign
Sun Jo Woo returned to his house
and sat there in complete silence.
The place was enveloped in stillness,
a heavy silence, yet a familiar one.
"Cain."
| Yes. |
"You mentioned before that you can identify those who have crossed over from another world, didn't you?"
| Yes.
I can do so because of their aura.
No matter how much a traveler tries to hide themselves, whether the transfer was physical or spiritual, they cannot erase the aura of their original world that clings to them.
And that... used to apply to you as well. |
Sun Jo Woo's gaze froze for a moment.
"Used to?"
| Yes.
But after your battle against Cthulhu,
the destruction of your body,
your transformation into a Constellation in Kim Dokja's world,
your ascension to the rank of Sacred Ruler,
your acquisition of the Body of Eternal Immortality,
and finally your advancement to the Great Supreme Sacred Ruler stage on the Path of the Universe... |
Cain paused briefly,
then continued in a steady voice.
| All of those stages erased the mark of your original world from both your body and your soul. |
Sun Jo Woo let out a quiet sigh, unsure whether he truly felt relieved or uneasy about it.
"Alright... that's a matter for another time.
But tell me this...
Is Sung Jin Woo a traveler?"
| No.
Every time you've met him, I have never sensed any foreign aura different from that of his own body.
However, I did sense— |
Before Cain could finish,
both of them spoke at exactly the same time.
"A different dark aura."
| A different dark aura. |
Sun Jo Woo raised an eyebrow slightly.
"You sensed it too?"
| Yes.
I sensed it trying to enter...
and merge with his aura. |
"And what does that mean?"
| It means he hasn't fully obtained it yet.
Or he hasn't refined it.
Or perhaps... he hasn't even realized it exists.
That's why it's still weak. |
A faint smile appeared on Sun Jo Woo's face.
"Oh..."
He fell silent for a moment before continuing.
"Tell me... can you detect another system?"
| Hmm...
No.
I can't sense one. |
"You can't sense one... Do you mean you can't sense the aura of the system inside Sung Jin Woo's body alone?
Or do you mean you can't sense the aura of any system... at all?"
| I can't sense it at all. |
Sun Jo Woo slowly closed his eyes.
"Alright... alright."
He opened them again,
certainty clearly visible in his gaze.
"I'm sure now.
If he isn't a traveler...
then he possesses a system.
But the question is—"
| How did he obtain it?
And what kind of system is it? |
"Exactly.
How did he obtain it in the first place?"
His thoughts began falling into place with greater precision.
"From everything I've managed to piece together...
before that deadly dungeon—
the dungeon where I first arrived in this world—
Sung Jin Woo was nothing more than an extremely weak Awakened.
Kind...
with no real danger about him."
He paused briefly.
"But now...
it hasn't been long since that dungeon,
and yet... he's already slightly stronger than I am."
Then he continued in a low voice.
"Second...
what kind of system does he have?
In Kim Dokja's world, I obtained the Red System.
A system with a shop, a personal status window,
and, most importantly...
the ability to purchase things,
and spend currency to strengthen myself.
And you, Cain,
possess the Heavenly Store,
a point system,
a storage space,
a personal status window,
and several other abilities.
But...
what kind of system does Sung possess?"
At that moment—
"It's finished, Master."
Sun Jo Woo opened his eyes
and looked at Kyu, who was standing before him.
He calmly rose from beneath the tree where he had been sitting
and looked around.
The place had changed.
His house had become larger...
more beautiful...
and far more organized.
The empty land that had once surrounded it was now enclosed by a massive, sturdy iron fence.
The ground had been cleaned,
trees had been planted,
and the once barren surroundings had been transformed into a living space.
Before,
his house had been small,
surrounded by a vast area of rocks and withered trees,
as though it sat in the heart of a cursed winter desert.
But now...
everything had changed.
Beside the house,
a massive black training hall had been built.
Sun Jo Woo smiled quietly,
paid the workers,
then entered the hall.
It was spacious inside,
expertly constructed,
its details carrying an atmosphere that was both strict and elegant.
"Alright, Kyu."
Sun Jo Woo calmly cracked his neck
as he took off his shirt.
"I can feel that you've improved...
and become stronger."
He looked at him steadily.
"So...
why don't you spar with me?"
"Yes, Master."
With those words—
the two of them vanished from where they stood.
In the very next instant,
a thunderous collision echoed through the center of the hall.
An overwhelming wave of power exploded between their fists,
and the surrounding air trembled.
And so...
the training began.
And so did the battle.
