“Stop right there!”
“If I catch you, you’re finished!”
Caw!
[Save me!]
Karurur, who had been causing trouble with his increased strength, was now running away from the residents of <Aerial> as his power had weakened and the situation had reversed.
However, no matter how hard Karurur flapped his wings, he was slower than the residents.
Eventually, Karurur was caught.
Just then,
“Puhuhut. Stop right there, meow! Karurur is our Sejun Company Vice President, meow!”
Theo, who was hanging onto Sejun’s legs as they moved with Cuengi’s telekinesis, shouted boldly.
Beside him were Mubalchil, Mukbupal, and Besugu, who had been rescued earlier.
For reference, the Sejun Company’s hierarchy went: Chairman Sejun, Vice Chairman Theo, then ten presidents, Flamie, Black Rabbit, Cuengi, Paespaes, Toryong, Blackie, Iona, Sweetie, Pink-fur, and Minotaur King.
Below them were 100 vice presidents, including Blackie’s subordinates.
Of course, since Sejun and Theo assigned titles however they pleased, many didn’t even know their own ranks.
And then,
Caw?!
[I’m a vice president?!]
That’s such a high position!
Today was the first time Vice President Karurur found out that he was a Vice President.
Caw! Caw…
[Let go of me, you fools! Do you have any idea who I am…]
“Quiet!”
104.28.193.250
Kwak!
Trying to assert his authority as a vice president to the <Aerial> resident who had caught him, Karurur was promptly choked.
“Puhuhut. You bullied our Vice President Karurur, you must be stamped, meow!”
Thanks to this, Theo found justification to use his stamp.
Bam bam.
Knocking out the <Aerial> residents,
Thud. Thud.
He stamped them.
As <The weak become strong, the strong become weak> rule vanished, Theo regained his strength.
Like a fish in water, Theo enthusiastically stamped the <Aerial> residents chasing the Blackie Family.
Though the Blackie Family had started it and were simply reaping what they sowed,
“Puhuhut.”
I don’t care about that, meow! That’s for them to sort out amongst themselves, meow!
All that mattered to Theo was that he had the chance to stamp.
And then,
[Hehe.]
As expected, this role suits Theo oppa best.
Flamie watched the scene unfold with a giggle. Even though <The weak become strong, the strong become weak> rule was gone, she stayed by Sejun’s side.
Thank you, Krishnak-nim. Thanks to you, I’ve found a way to stay by Sejun’s side.
Flamie had recreated the rule Krishnak created in a way that worked to her advantage.
She created and used the law <Tree of Creation Weakens When Holding Breath> and <Power: Frail Pretty Girl>.
Hehe. By using the two together, even as a Tree of Creation, I should be able to stay by Sejun’s side for about an hour per month.
Even with her reduced strength, which appeared to be World Tree-level, Flamie was very satisfied with her new ability.
Of course, she was embarrassed to reveal her massive body to Sejun, so she insisted she was still her current size even as a World Tree.
“Puhuhut. I’ve stamped them all, meow!”
As Theo finished stamping,
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I think we should head over there next. Eomdol is getting hit.”
Iona, who had assessed the scattered situation of the Blackie Family using magic, spoke.
“Really? Cuengi, that way!”
Kueng!
At the mention of Eomdol being beaten, Sejun and his group quickly flew off.
“Puhuhut. You must be stamped, meow!”
And another group of victims emerged.
Thud. Thud.
While Theo was stamping the residents who had beaten up Eomdol,
Clank…
The void storage opened quietly.
Perk.
At the same time, Theo’s ears perked up, sensing danger.
Kyawng!
At the same time, a white leopard who had been lying in wait inside the void storage sprang out and leapt toward Sejun’s lap.
Whoosh.
“Haak! Haak! Baektang, that’s a no-no, meow! Great Hybrid Chairman Park’s lap is exclusively mine, Vice Chairman Theo’s, meow!”
Theo quickly used Light Speed Meow-Step to jump onto Sejun’s lap and hissed at the white leopard Baektang.
Then,
Kyawng?
Exclusive? What’s that?
Not understanding the word ‘exclusive’, Baektang tilted his head in confusion.
“Puhuhut. ‘Exclusive’ means Chairman Park’s lap belongs to me, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, earned it by working hard, meow!”
Theo explained proudly to Baektang.
Kyawng…
Baektang drooped his ears in gloom and returned to the void storage.
Nyongnyong.
Pbok pbok.
Jak jak.
The other friends inside the void storage comforted the dejected Baektang.
Sejun had heard from Flamie about Krishnak’s story and was now helping find a safe place where the four animals Krishnak had raised, referred to collectively as Krishnak’s Four Beasts, could live peacefully and make many friends.
A little later,
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. This time it’s over there. Shari is being chased.”
Sejun and his group took off to rescue Shari.
***
Creator God’s Temple.
“So this is how it happened.”
The Creator God could learn more details about how the next Creator God became Destruction by looking at the completed pictures.
There were many unfinished paintings as well, but the context allowed for understanding.
The initial lie that began with hiding the puzzle piece.
Like a drop of black ink in clear water, it darkened the heart of the next Creator God.
And the guilt of deceiving others eventually turned into a thrill for the next Creator God.
In the paintings, a sinister red snake appeared next to the next Creator God, flicking its tongue and whispering sweet words, egging him on.
‘That must be Corruption.’
Even beyond the paintings, the ominous feeling was palpable.
The Creator God, having confirmed the paintings, approached one of the temple’s pillars.
“Here it is.”
[Creator God is stupid and dumb]
He found a scribble written by the next Creator God after getting scolded.
Then,
Srrrrk.
The graffiti glowed and disappeared, and
Chwarururu.
The image changed to the next Creator God angrily scribbling on the pillar while listening to the snake’s whisper.
Then the picture changed again, showing the next Creator God and the Creator God scribbling together on the pillar, and eventually drawing on each other’s faces while smiling happily.
“This is much better.”
A smile appeared on the face of the Creator God as he viewed the painting.
***
Land of Destruction.
While the Creator God was changing the scenes in the painting, a fragment of consciousness detached from Destruction.
And the consciousness, split from Destruction’s heart, hurriedly hid.
“Keheheh. Hide well, or I’ll find you.”
Thump. Thump.
Corruption, which had completely taken over Destruction’s body, wandered the area, searching for the hidden consciousness.
Tch. Still not fully surrendered, huh.
The purity that Destruction couldn’t abandon until the end.
If only that purity were conquered, Corruption would no longer bring about passive destruction, but active and deliberate annihilation of the world.
Then,
“Keheheh. Found you.”
There you are.
Corruption curled its lips upward and leaned its face next to the hiding place of the consciousness.
This is bad! What do I do?!
Terrified, thinking it had been discovered, the consciousness tightly covered its mouth with both hands.
But,
That Park Sejun guy, how does he possess the Primordial Power?
The one Corruption had found was Sejun.
What a bother.
The Primordial Power was the opposite of Corruption. If it grew stronger, it would become a real nuisance.
“At least it’s a relief. He’s from a Level 1 world.”
Corruption felt reassured by the fact that Sejun originated from a Level 1 world.
“Keheheh. Just you wait. If I catch you, I’ll tear you to shreds.”
Corruption began searching for the fragments of consciousness again. No, in truth, Corruption already knew exactly where they were hiding.
It just chose not to catch them right away, wandering around and instilling fear instead.
Because fear was the most effective way to break a consciousness.
“Keheheh. Where could you be?”
Thump. Thump.
Corruption deliberately circled the area where the fleeing fragments were hiding, amplifying the atmosphere of fear.

<Aerial>
“Ah. I’m full.”
“Puhuhut. That was a good meal, meow!”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Same here.”
Kuehehehe.
With only the rescue of Jaki from the Blackie Family remaining, Sejun and his group had lunch and took a brief rest.
According to Iona, Jaki was camouflaged as an amethyst and was safe for the time being.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. You guys, come here!]
Kyawng…
Nyongnyong…
Pbok pbok…
Jak jak…
Meanwhile, the Blackie Family had surrounded Krishnak’s Four Beasts, establishing dominance and trying to set the tone.
Although the Blackie Family was far weaker than the Four Beasts, who came from a Level 9 world,
Kking! Kking!
[I am great Blackie! State your names and ages!]
Kyawng!
[My name is Baektang, I am 305 years old!]
Nyongnyong!
[My name is Cheongnyong, I am 304 years old!]
Pbok pbok!
[My name is Heukbuk, I am 303 years old!]
Jak jak!
[My name is Jeokbi, I am 301 years old!]
Overwhelmed by the Blackie Family’s excessive confidence, the Four Beasts, despite being capable of defeating them in one hit, became intimidated and obediently responded.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking…
[Hehe. Now abandon your old names! From now on, your new names from the butler…]
Just as Blackie was about to give the Four Beasts their new names, bestowed by Sejun,
“Blackie.”
Sejun called out to him.
Dadada.
Kihihit. Kking?!
[Hehe. Butler! Did you call great Blackie?!]
Wagging his tail vigorously, Blackie dashed over to Sejun.
“Yeah. Don’t bully them and behave.”
Kking…
Caught by Sejun, he was confined to the sling bag.
Thanks to that, the Four Beasts were able to keep the names Krishnak had given them and enjoyed a peaceful moment.
Let’s see how much weight our Blackie has lost.
As Sejun touched Blackie’s belly to check his weight loss,
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Butler, touch it! You’re allowed to touch it!]
Blackie proudly stuck out his belly more, helping Sejun get a good feel.
And then,
Squish.
Blackie’s soft pink belly that could be pinched about one finger thickness.
Hmm. It’s reduced quite a bit.
“You can stop dieting now.”
Sejun lifted the diet restriction. Since Blackie was playing around rolling the stone ball anyway, there wasn’t much need for dieting.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Really?! Butler! Then give me roasted and dried sweet potatoes! Give me 20!]
Immediately trying to binge eat upon hearing the end of the diet.
“Nope.”
Sejun stopped him and gave him just a small piece of roasted and dried sweet potato.
If he gave as much as requested, Blackie would instantly turn into a Black-piggy again.
Kihihit.
Delicious!
While Blackie was enjoying the small piece of roasted and dried sweet potato,
Sneak. Sneak.
Baektang cautiously approached Sejun’s lap.
However,
“Haak! Go away, meow!”
Kyawng…
He was blocked again by Theo, who was fiercely defending Sejun’s lap.
A little later,
“Jaki, let’s go.”
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Jaki! Great Blackie has come to save you!]
“Sejun-nim! Great Blackie-nim! You’ve come to rescue me!”
Sejun and the group rescued Jaki, who had disguised himself as an amethyst and was hiding in a treasure chest.
“Who’s there?!”
“Thieves!”
There was some commotion during the process, but
“Puhuhut. Stamp them, meow!”
As always, Theo resolved it neatly(?) by recruiting them into Sejun Company with his stamp.
With that, Sejun and his group successfully rescued all members of the Blackie Family who had been on the run.
“Let’s go home for now.”
It was time for dinner, so they crossed the dimensional gate and returned home.
After eating dinner prepared by Sejun No. 12 and getting ready for bed,
“Over here!”
“The tracks lead this way!”
Soldiers from <Aerial>, who had followed the trail of the fleeing Blackie Family, crossed the dimensional gate and invaded the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
But,
Kueng?
Kuoong! Kuoong!
[It’s my Cuengi’s bedtime! If he slept late, he won’t grow tall!]
When Cuengi’s sleep was disturbed, the enraged Pink-fur covered Cuengi’s ears and roared and
“R-Run away!”
“Retreat!”
Terrified by Pink-fur’s overwhelming roar, the <Aerial> residents panicked and quickly fled back through the dimensional gate.
