"OH! That's it! It's there!"

They walked over to the shop right away.

As they opened the door, an old man with a long mustache appeared.

"What brings you here?"

"Hey- It's me. I'm here for some information."

"What brings you here?"

"…It's me. Didn't you hear?"

"Ugh… gosh." Surha sighed and began speaking the following phrase: "So, we will be the slaves of the freedom, the blade of the rights, and the measurement of the equality."

With that, the light within the building went out and the windows were covered with blinds.

Slave of the Freedom.

Blade of the Rights.

Measurement of the Equality.

These were the metaphors that symbolized the organization. Of course, there were other names that directed this organization. The Anti-Cultivation Group, or the Worst Terrorist Group in history and such… but it was the name that was more famous than all of those nicknames.

[Rupture]

This was the 5th regional office of the worst terrorist group, [Rupture], of the .

The old man who appeared through the darkness was not an ordinary old man. His face and shape had been changed entirely to that of a middle-aged man. It seemed he had the [Setting] to change his physical appearance. Surha ranted, "Hey, do we really need to go through this every time?"

"It's the rule. So, who's he?"

"He's with me. He's not with [Rupture] but… he's kind of [Rupture]? Or an Ex-[Rupture]…? Don't worry about him and just show me the list."

"Here."

The man then handed over a 10-inch sized machine. It was the machine that showed information that [Rupture] gathered recently, in order of importance. Surha spoke as she scrolled down on the list.

"Hmm… what's this? There are Lost Ones rampaging at ?"

"There's word that the Followers of the Ancient G.o.ds are gathering at the Hatchnold Auction House. I heard that a [Part] of an Ancient G.o.d is up for bidding in the auction house…"

"What? Really?"

Surha frowned at the information.

"Hah- Machina? There's no way that it can appear at an auction house. It smells fishy… but I'll pa.s.s on the information for now. What else?"

"Next is about an Awakener."

"Awakener?"

Chunghuh and Surha's face brightened. It just might be the information they were looking for. The man continued, "There's information about an old man with the nickname 'Perverted Guru' making mess in the East. I think he killed a few Vicegerents of middle-grade G.o.ds while leading a pirate group called [Bringer of the Fall]… it's a big issue out there."

Surha and Chunghuh's expressions turned weird at the news.

"I heard the Perverted Guru uses a very unusual unique world. What was it called… Kangho… or was it Joong…"

"Isn't it 'Moorim'?"

"Hmph, maybe it was."

Surha was barely holding back from laughing and Chunghuh's nose widened as he fought back the urge to laugh.

"Anyway, you should watch out for him too. I heard he's quite the Awakener. He's really interested in beautiful Vicegerents apparently."

"Perverted Guru… yeah- of course. I will for sure," Surha answered as she glanced and Chunghuh, in which he coughed uncomfortably. "So- any other news?"

"Nope."

"I see…"

Surha became disappointed, but that's when the machine sounded an alarm, followed by a new message.

"Oh, I guess we have a new one. There's a fight happening in the Hatchnold Auction House."

"The place with the Machina? What happened?"

"Five Vicegerents of a high-ranking G.o.d and 12 mid-ranking G.o.ds have been killed."

"What? Five from the high-rankers?"

Vicegerents of high-ranking G.o.ds weren't easily matched. They were powerful individuals within .

"That's close to a war. Did they fight against each other?"

"No. They were killed by a man."

"What- what kind of mad man does that in a…"

In that moment, Yoo Surha stopped speaking and Chunghuh also looked at Surha. Surha leaned closer to the table and asked.

"D-do you have a video of it?"

"…Here."

Soon, a hologram screen showed a man. The video quality was not good enough to see the face, but two things were certain. One was that the man was naked with only a coat on him, and another was that he was 'stabbing'.

-AAAAARGGH!

Vicegerents were being flown away through the vicious world power storm. As they heard the sound, Chunghuh was making a face as if he had been waiting for that sound in a long time.

Within the chaos of the video, there was a man, bare naked under his coat.

It was certain. It was the mad man. It was the mad man that they were desperately looking for the past two years. Chunghuh and Surha shook in excitement.

The man they were looking for was in the video.

"It's him, right?"

"Yeah. I knew he'd do something like that."

"Of course."

Both of them quickly jumped out of the building. Because they were too excited, they did not realize who sent the information to the regional office.

-Master of Rupture

The regional office master narrowed his eyes as he looked at who sent the video.

"So, it's the Master who sent this? Hah… I guess things aren't going to end quietly this time."
