On the other hand, I was running away from the Army of Death with Aiolos. I was busy running while Aiolos leisurely followed me using the wind. Just behind me, the commander of the second army corps, ‘Balak,’ was chasing after me with the huge body of a cow and the wings of a bat while firing blue flames.

“Huhu, if I do it wrong, then I will be grilled. However, I’ve never seen him before.”

It was like seeing Belphegor, the demon king of Sloth. For reference, the clothes I was wearing were resistant to all types of flames, but I didn’t want to encounter the blue flames. At this time, Yoo Seonyeong’s words came to mind.

[It hasn’t been long since Balak became an army corps commander. He wasn’t there in the last Ragnarok war so this is the first time you’ll see him. He is a bit aggressive due to his combative nature. If it’s okay, why don’t you fight him?]

“Groan. It is easy to say. The wind is so bad that I will die if hit by those flames. I’ve lost most of the power of the wind so how do I fight? Isn’t the difficulty too high?”

I found it so absurd that I had to laugh. This time, Aiolos came to me and told me to practice the Wind Flying Kick Technique, using it to fight. The even more absurd thing was that the ground suddenly shook and the second commander, Balak, sprang up, shouting, “You have an extraordinary power of fire. You should fight with me once!”

I had to fight with the wind, but I ran into an opponent using flames. I felt like I was going crazy as I ran around. Moreover, Balak wasn’t listening to me.

“What are you doing? Why aren’t you taking out your flames?”

Balak fired blue flames from his mouth.

“Ugh, have you ever seen such a madman?”

I was determined not to run away any longer so I decided to attack him. Then I slowly drew the magic power of the wind located deep in my heart...

[All the wind magic power has been exhausted.]

[The wind can’t be used.]

...I couldn’t use it.

“Groan.”

Aiolos stared at me with curious eyes and asked, [Hoh, you are operating it with the wind in your heart? Aren’t you using the wind in a strange manner? You used the recipe of the wind to cook food so you can feel the wind physically. Why do you have to do this? There will be many limitations if you put the wind in your heart. Alexus left the 500 year old Aiolia. Didn’t you eat it?]

Aiolos glanced at Alexus in the distance as he spoke. Then he looked at me again.

“......”

I was at a loss for words, especially since Balak was coming up behind me right now. It was Aiolos’ own daughter who stole and ate it. However, she couldn’t be held responsible.

“You! Are you going to just run away?”

Suddenly, Balak floated in the air and fired several blue fireballs from his mouth. As he flapped his wings, the fireballs spread out and fell like rain. I started dodging it again while yelling at Aiolos.

“...it!”

[What?]

“Your daughter ate it!”

[Hah, really? My daughter ate that precious 500 year old Aiolia.]

Aiolos was unexpectedly calm. He was a person who couldn’t be grasped. Perhaps it was because he was a sacred creature of the wind, but he seemed as free as the wind.

[If so, she wouldn’t have digested all the Aiolia yet. Her growth rate should be faster than expected. If she gains a sudden realization, then I might have to give up my position. Haha, this is really...]

No, I was about to die in front of his eyes. What was he doing?

“Don’t be like that and find a way to do something! I can’t use the power of the wind right now!”

[Huh, you are a human being with a lot of anger inside. Tsk tsk. This is why your wind is violent when handling it.]

“Groan, if you’re just going to nag, then get lost!”

[Huhu, the criminal is becoming angry at the victim. Okay. The method is simple. I just need to fill your empty heart with the wind magic power.]

The next moment, Aiolos’ palm suddenly touched my back and I felt the wind magic power soaring inside my body.

“......!”

[Relax your strength.]

I was surprised for a moment, but I quietly relaxed the strength in my body like Aiolos said. After a while, I received the wind magic power from him. There was a burst of green light from my body. Then I waved my hand at the approaching Balak and shot out sharp winds.

“Hat!”

Balak was flustered by the speed of the sudden wind that blew. His wings were torn and he crashed to the ground. A small earthquake occurred and dark dust flew around. I raised my mouth in a smile. Then in an instant, I flew toward Balak with ‘Blade Wind’ around both legs.

At Union headquarters, the monitoring room...

Yoo Minseok was going crazy. The incidents that occurred in succession were big events that no one expected and it was very difficult to deal with. It was due to the mysterious virus that suddenly invaded and forcibly blocked the users’ attempt to logout.

Cha Jincheol, who had the best qualifications in the company, said the virus infiltrated like it had its own willpower. The virus seemed to be alive and seemed to know all of Union’s game programs from the beginning. He said that the only way to solve this was with the ‘master key’ that Dr Kang Jaeseong had.

Yoo Minseok immediately got into the car to head to the Jaeseong Hospital where Dr Kang Jaeseong was located. The sedan smoothly drove on the road with the red glow of the sunset behind it. Currently, the roads were extremely congested and this was also due to a sudden error. Most of the users who played Arkstar were trapped in the capsules and couldn’t come out. Therefore, there was a traffic jam reminiscent of Chuseok as friends and family heard the news and came from other areas.

“It is four hours...”

Yoo Minseok sighed when he saw the arrival time on the GPS. He held the steering wheel with both hands and buried his face in it. It felt like he had homework that he didn’t know where and how to solve. Yoo Minseok spent the time listening to the radio.

-The largest hostage incident is being held in Arkstar with governments all over the world...

He immediately turned to another channel.

-Not long ago, Louis Cassel, the French Black Rose was confirmed dead in his capsule.He is one of the accomplices to the largest hostage situation of all time and French authorities have expressed a strong intention to investigate the death of Louis Cassel and recover all his assets for his crimes.Prior to that...

Yoo Minseok just turned off the radio. He tried to think about something else, but his mind was just becoming more complicated. He shouldn’t have turned on the radio if it was going to be like this.

“The biggest hostage situation ever...”

It was honestly correct. The reason why Jupiter joined forces with the demon kings and why the virus suddenly infiltrated Union’s network was unknown. Nevertheless, Union couldn’t shirk its responsibility for the biggest hostage situation in history. He speculated that this was all due to Lee Geonmyeong, but he was already dead, so they couldn’t even ask about the crime. It was an undeniable fact that they committed a sin that couldn’t be washed away for the family of the users who had already died.

“Hah.”

Yoo Minseok sighed deeply and took out his mobile phone. He was a new groom who was just married. He thought he would feel better if he heard the voice of his wife, Cha Aeri. There was a brief beeping sound followed by a voice filled with anxiety.

-Honey?

The moment he heard the voice, Yoo Minseok almost shed tears.

“Is everything okay?”

Yoo Minseok felt choked up, but he replied cheerfully so that his wife didn’t worry. He had to do so.

At Choi Kanghyun’s house...

Choi Chuntaek’s first son, Choi Kanghyun, closed his hospital after hearing the news and ran frantically. Next was his wife, Kim Mikyung, who had gone grocery shopping. Choi Jeongdo arrived home next after there was a presidential decree for schools to temporarily be suspended in the wake of the sudden disaster.

The moment the three of them arrived home, they headed to the inner rooms and collapsed when they saw the lights from the two capsules. The blank-looking Choi Kanghyun immediately called the second son, Choi Jeonghyun. Fortunately, he had to bring Seohui to kindergarten so he hadn’t accessed the game.

Choi Kanghyun explained the situation straight away and called Choi Jeonghyun to the house. Next, he called the youngest child, Choi Seohyeon. Choi Seohyeon said she was coming straight away with her husband and son.

After a while, this house showed a very somber atmosphere, like it was a house of mourning. Choi Chuntaek’s two sons, his daughter, his grandchildren, and his son-in-law and daughter-in-law gathered. Choi Seohyeon was sobbing bitterly among them. “Sob, Father, what are we doing to do? Father!”

Choi Kanghyun’s wife, Kim Mikyung, was weeping at the thought that she could lose her daughter and father-in-law at the same time, to the point of fainting. Fortunately, Choi Kanghyun was a doctor. He realized she was in a weak state and placed a cold, wet towel on her forehead while taking care of her.

Gu Seokhyun held his wife Choi Seohyeon in his arms and patted her on the back while his other hand was holding the sleeping Minchan. Choi Jeonghyun was staring blankly into the air.

“......”

Choi Kanghyun couldn’t say anything to his family members.

According to the news, Union’s capsules automatically started the emergency response guidelines to freeze those inside to protect their lives. They gradually lowered the user’s body temperature and protected their lives as much as possible to prevent death.

Now the two capsules in front of him were running the life extension program. One was his father, Choi Chuntaek, and the other was his daughter, Choi Mido, who he never wanted to see hurt.

“Mido, Father...”

Choi Kanghyun bit his lip. This live preservation system could be maintained up to 15 days. If they couldn’t be saved in that time, they would die according to Union. Union just said they were going to try their best. It was a situation where no countermeasures were issued immediately.

“...Sigh.”

This reality where they couldn’t do anything was miserable. Choi Kanghyun sighed deeply as he stared at the ceiling. He deeply prayed that Mido and his father would be able to leave the capsule within 15 days.
