107 Catastrophe 8

For the most powerful G.o.d, 12 Lords and Big Brother had to join forces to seal it away. Sameng Hoon spoke.

"I'm looking for the [Product]. I will return once I find it."

[The [Product]. Are you talking about a human?]

Sameng Hoon did not answer.

[You people do not change even after thousands of years. You consider a living being as a thing.]

Sameng Hoon was shocked to hear that. He was being lectured by a machine.

"…Anyway, open the door."

[And for what reason? I cannot do that at the moment.]

"It seems that my [Product] has run off inside."

Edsac replied sternly,

[As I said, that is not possible at the moment.]

"Not possible? …You don't understand."

Sameng Hoon then removed his smile for the first time.

"Open the f*ck up, you worthless piece of sc.r.a.ps!"

Sameng Hoon let out powerful energy which even cracked the side wall of the factory.

[How dare you…!]

Ias' arm shook and changed its shape into a blade. The Overseers were ready to fight. Sameng Hoon's glared at them.

'I don't know how strong that Sole-King is…'

Sole-King Catastrophe. There were a lot of rumors about him.

'A long time ago, the Lords of the 12 regions were much weaker than they are now.'

And Sameng Hoon's power was much stronger than that of those Lords from the past.

He knew he was more powerful. He was not afraid of some fallen G.o.d. That was why he was here. He quickly cut off Ias' limbs and cut down Johniac's waist. Edsac's head was sliced off.

Chunghuh looked at the sight grimly.

'…No way. We cannot defeat him.'

Chunghuh then felt someone grabbing him from behind.

"D-doctor… what's going on? Can we win?"

It was Yong who was bleeding from his both eyes.

"Doctor, please. Tell me."

Chunghuh then realized that he couldn't see. He didn't see the terror in front of them.

"W-Where's Master?"

Chunghuh then thought of Jaehwan. Jaehwan went to face Sole-King Catastrophe. Chunghuh knew that being was much more powerful then Sameng Hoon. However, Chunghuh also knew that Jaehwan would've remained as Jaehwan even against such being.

Maybe he might've died by now. However, he would not have given up.

'You are always ahead of us.'

Chunghuh then felt his fear being lifted.

"Yong. Master has not come yet." He spoke calmly, "And we have not lost yet either."

He did not give up hope.

"We can still fight."

Jaehwan wasn't here. But so what? Was that a problem?

"…I see."

Chunghuh took Yong's hand and helped him get up. He couldn't see, but he still rose to stand. The other members slowly rose at once.

Kanghw.a.n.g without his left arm, Mukeuk without his right leg, and Euren with a huge cut on his waist - they helped each other stand up.

They were .

'I can't believe this.'

Sameng Hoon looked at them in astonishment. He had shown them the power beyond imagination. Power enough to make them cower in fear. But why?

Why were they trying to fight? Why were they looking at him like that?

Sameng Hoon was astonished, and he came to fear them at the same time.

If all Awakeners born with the tower are like this, could he really sell them to the ?

'I'll kill them all and just return with the [Product].'

He could always create Awakeners again. What's important was the [Product] and the tower that was made by the [Product]. The others were irrelevant.

Sameng Hoon then unleashed his energy. From his back, blueish pure energy came out from his body formed a giant blue lion and charged forward.

One slash threw Chunghuh and Karlton away. The other members who were barely standing were covered by the giant shadow.

The shadow of death.

It was the last, but they weren't wrong.

There was no miracle. The world did not change.

Even then, their efforts weren't in vain.

That's why they did not close their eyes. They faced their death.

Yet because they did not close their eyes, they saw it.

'Ah…'

The lonely sword that fought against despair. Bolts sparked up as the sword clashed against the claws.

And through it came the man.

"I'm sorry. I'm late."

Jaehwan was here.
