‘He can’t misunderstand this…’830f9081947cf861

With my last bit of strength, I tore off my necklace and quickly shoved it under the couch where no one could see. This was the only way left to show Kim Jaeyoung I hadn’t abandoned him. My mother’s keepsake that I always wore around my neck. I hoped he’d recognize the forcibly broken chain and realize what happened.22267a1c4c67f2c7

The former King of Arrogance, Aroganchia, now existed within Kim Jaeyoung’s psyche. Once Kim Jaeyoung fully absorbed the king’s power, Aroganchia would become part of this vast desert and scatter into nothingness.b571185ab3513ccc

The curse Void, d85e47a991 King of Chaos, 2468e55b29 had placed on e98f05f23b him was meant d6ba1fde6f to slow his 15e928f7f8 recovery from battle d9cbb14015 wounds. A simple curse b1254aa7e7 that would fade 5c73225509 with time. Had he not met d7145b5aa1 Kim Jaeyoung, Aroganchia would 6283e485a7 have remained firmly seated 82a8ee2033 as king after hundreds 414522debe of thousands of years 602e29fdea of rule. Unfortunately, that minor curse 9ad697f07a caused him to lose ad610a1696 all his power and c87c0da09f face extinction.00acfe67e0bbf4a4

Aroganchia wanted revenge against Awarita, King of Greed who wounded him, and Void who cursed him. While Void and his subordinates remained hidden in their corner of the red moon, Awarita’s underlings now swarmed Earth like ants. Eliminating them would force Awarita to reveal himself. After dealing with him, another king would descend. All Aroganchia had to do was keep killing until Void finally moved his heavy ass down here.c47369b9605b55ba

But he lacked a physical form to carry out his vengeance. Aroganchia planned to use Kim Jaeyoung’s body, which had absorbed his power. The extinct dimensional races wanted revenge against the red moon that killed their families and destroyed their homes. Their psychology dictated that gaining power would make them celebrated as racial heroes. Having annihilated countless dimensions over millennia, Aroganchia naturally assumed Kim Jaeyoung would be the same.b5bbef971030c839

When Kim Jaeyoung killed an [Aqua] to save a mere human, Aroganchia was furious. Unlike Awarita’s stupid [beasts], Aroganchia’s Aquas were elite forces. Since Kim Jaeyoung wasn’t strong enough to create Aquas yet, they needed to preserve the remaining ones. Even through his awakening haze, he should have instinctively recognized the Aqua as an ally, yet he killed it to save a human. Truly a heroic fool, Aroganchia concluded arbitrarily.4d06364b9a73da49

Even when Kim Jaeyoung 5736931a30 used Mind Control on 07be103611 the cafeteria survivors, Aroganchia c4114d1a25 thought everything was going 7d98dd9849 according to plan.

But this was Aroganchia’s grave miscalculation. After clearing the area, Kim Jaeyoung holed up in the science lab, refusing to go out. Seeing him cling to Eunsoo’s hand and sleep beside him, Aroganchia realized this human was important to Kim Jaeyoung.e99c1fefa5cd936d

The mental commands Kim Jaeyoung used on Eunsoo were child’s play too. Though Kim Jaeyoung seemed to think Eunsoo’s friendlier attitude meant his ability worked, Aroganchia could tell divine interference blocked the skill. Scanning Eunsoo through Kim Jaeyoung’s eyes, he thought: This hero seems too weak… Has divine power weakened so much already?b275746bf5317ecf

Kim Jaeyoung only used his power to kill monsters blocking his path when gathering supplies. He showed no reaction to his world falling into ruin. When hidden survivors begged for help, he ignored them and took what he wanted before leaving. Though most lifeforms instinctively protect small, cute things, he didn’t even glance at a child trapped under rubble. Witnessing all this, Aroganchia realized he’d misjudged Kim Jaeyoung.a444d443c4a9a563

The normally composed Aroganchia fumed angrily. Never had he been treated this way. Ignoring all his offers while becoming an obedient lamb at that weak human’s slightest word. What nonsense! Realizing he needed to provoke Kim Jaeyoung using Eunsoo, Aroganchia spoke up confidently:0862c33eb81e2f7a

Sand poured into Aroganchia’s face, cutting him off as he choked. The sand accumulated over millennia from absorbed dimensions now vengefully filled his mouth. Though he couldn’t suffocate as a spiritual entity, it was still unpleasant. He lamented his fall to pandering to a primitive human’s whims.2ad6efd02e67c0d3

On the day Kim Jaeyoung and Eunsoo planned to leave, a bloodied Awakened student entered. Kim Jaeyoung’s underdeveloped kingly senses couldn’t detect the deception, yet his sharp instincts made him reluctant to leave Eunsoo’s side. Still, he crumbled at Eunsoo’s words and touch.367580129578ef26

Aroganchia didn’t care what happened to Eunsoo. In fact, Eunsoo falling into a trap would make things easier to manipulate. Sneering, Aroganchia watched events unfold, waiting to fulfill his final wish.8caa65d38fee133b

“Jaeyoung, over here!”172c86a503c9b72d

As Kim Jaeyoung a93788403f headed toward the 06fdf85e78 cafeteria, Yoo Yeonha d3886236e5 called him. Without hesitation, Kim Jaeyoung approached. With urgent expression, a2e7daa5c0 Yeonha grabbed his 1c9546b36e arm and hurried a79cb48673 past the intact 6b2fb7936d cafeteria building.9ffd699ad4c6962c

They’d claimed a humanoid monster, an Aqua, was present. As creations of Aroganchia’s power, Kim Jaeyoung could sense nearby Aquas. But where Yeonha pointed held nothing, not even an ant. His cold gaze bore into Yeonha.98f6649c90b27676

Yeonha had been 3630100904 confident about winning 97424efc52 Kim Jaeyoung over. Yet facing him now, his 396b5df845 limbs stiffened involuntarily. After hesitating, Yeonha d2f442cd17 gritted his teeth.e6d1aec040a80e35

For over two years, Yeonha had been by Kim Jaeyoung’s side. They spent all day together at school, eating meals and studying side by side. Anyone wanting to befriend Kim Jaeyoung had to go through Yeonha. He’d buy poor Kim Jaeyoung workbooks, stationery, and snacks. Kim Jaeyoung would smile prettily and thank him, never refusing anything.6a3fff911cc565f8

Yeonha’s investments grew increasingly extravagant, even stealing from his parents’ wallets. The more he spent, the more he expected in return, until he began seeing Kim Jaeyoung as his possession.297f745977f6570f
