'Sameng Garam… 11th stage Adapter.'

Jaehwan glanced at Sameng Garam in the distance. The two Generals in front of him were powerful, but he was the real enemy. Jaehwan knew that Sameng Garam was twice, if not more, as powerful than those two Generals combined.

Jaehwan and Magito clashed against each other. According to Jaehwan's [Suspicion], Magito was similar to when Jaehwan first arrived in .

'Let's not waste time.'

Jaehwan moved. He needed to finish it while the enemy least expected it. Jaehwan attacked with his [Strong Stab]. Then, from the attack that had left a scar, Jaehwan's unique world began to spread. Magito panicked. He had not expected such power from a mere human. He tried to use his best sword skill to fight back, but Jaehwan did not give him that luxury. He had already readied a second stab.

Repeated Strong Stab!

"Impossible…!"

Magito finally spoke out loud after hundreds of years. The damage spread, destroying everything in its path. Chunghuh and Sirwen quickly grabbed Cayman and evacuated behind Jaehwan to avoid being caught up in the aftershock.

"How dare you!"

Kanael jumped in. He originally just intended to watch, but it wasn't going as they expected. Even if their pride was important, he couldn't let Magito die. He quickly flew to Magito, who was being thrown back, to grab him.

"…I'm sorry, Magito, but I will have to jump in."

"…Dammit…" Magito moaned. He had no choice, however. They were out on an official mission, and their job wasn't to compete in an honorable duel. They would not truly die as they had come here through the [Narrow Door], but they couldn't allow their spirit to be damaged as it would take days to recover.

"W-watch out!"

Magito warned as Jaehwan's sword fired again.

A third strike.

"AAAAARGH!"

Kanael then fought back, using his skill [Wings of the Storm] that allowed him to become the General of the Storm. However, hostility aside, Kanael was truly astonished. It had been a long time since he was faced with such power by a non-General.

'Three powerful attacks!'

But it wasn't over yet.

And then the fourth strike came.

The 4th strike was on a different level. Jaehwan's unique world spread from the attack, and Kanael flinched at the glimpse of the giant dark eye within.

"This… this can't…!"

His wings were ripping apart. Kanael used all his might to resist the attack, but Jaehwan made his final move.

The fifth strike.

It seemed like the world had been bombarded with a nuclear strike. Kanael and Magito were thrown into the sky like a pair of rag dolls. There was no Spirit Power from them as they were severely injured. Then, from all the scars from the previous attacks, dark matter began to seep out, covering the entire region in its picture.

The unique world.

Everyone watched as Jaehwan's world appeared. Laika, who was watching all this from behind, looked at Jaehwan's eyes. He realized that this man had let him survive to show him this moment.

was not weak.

'If he is here… no one will dare to enter with ease.'

Jaehwan's sword sliced the connections from the two Generals and they began to writhe in agony. But it wasn't over yet.

Jaehwan's unique world was now advancing to where Sameng Garam was standing. He, for the first time, had drawn his sword. The power that reached him that defeated two Generals seemed to be too great for any one man to fight back.

"You are strong."

The unique world stopped in front of him.

"A physical power that destroys the world itself."

Sameng Garam reached out for the border and held it.

"But it's not enough. You have the weapon, but you are still a child."

Then, the world began to shrink as if it was afraid of Sameng Garam.

"A unique world that has not faced 'Creation' is only a trickery."

The world faded. Jaehwan was shocked.

'He scattered the unique world.'

Sameng Garam began walking over to Jaehwan. He felt his body growing heavy and his skin tightening as Sameng Garam approached, as if Jaehwan was being taken into a unique world.

'…Unique world?'

Sameng Garam said, "There are fools who think that the unique world is only available to Awakeners."

An Adapter had his own world? That was impossible. Jaehwan's [Suspicion] had told him how the world was formed. But Sameng Garam continued with his explanation. "Everyone has their own world. Even if it's not 'unique'."

The world of Adaptation was gathering in him.

He was, in fact, the one closest to becoming a Commander as an 11th stage Adapter.

Jaehwan gripped his sword tighter. It was the first time, other than during the Sole King Catastrophe, that he faced such power. This was like-

'The power given by the world itself.'

Jaehwan was facing a 'System'.
