Novel Full Chapter 484: What Hybrid?!
Chapter 484: What Hybrid?!
TL: Hanguk
Hehe. I couldn’t feed him because I was worried he might get suspicious. But today, I’ll feed him everything.
Blackie, who had been planning to simply feed the gathered core fragments and enhance Sejun’s powers, decided to go ahead.
At that moment…
Bang! Bang!
Kking?!
[What is this?!]
A strong rejection occurred in Sejun’s body.
It was the dragon’s energy contained in the <Power: Sturdy Young Dragon’s Solid Bones> clashing with the god’s energy contained in the <Power: God-blood with a touch of divinity>.
Implanting dragon’s bone into a human body was possible without much resistance because a dragon’s status was significantly higher, but…
A god was a being with a status similar to that of a dragon, and the two energies were not acknowledging each other, pushing against one another.
In this situation, it was like a shrimp caught in a whale fight—Sejun’s body was in danger of breaking apart.
However…
Kking! Kking! Kking!
[You fools! You’re hurting my butler! Get along!]
Blackie used the core to forcibly make the two energies reconcile for a moment.
It was Blackie’s specialty to swallow all energies and make them his own.
And since Sejun had Blackie’s core, it was too easy for Blackie to prevent the dragon and god energies from colliding.
Kikihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Good! This one’s worth 30 pieces of dried sweet potatoes!]
After performing the amazing feat of stopping the clash of the two powers, Blackie was thinking of a trivial reward: 30 pieces of dried sweet potatoes from Sejun.
At that moment…
Caw! Caw?
(Blackie-nim, I brought the core! Should I bring more?)
Karurur appeared, holding one core fragment in its mouth and one in each of its claws, bringing a total of three core fragments.
Kking!
[Of course! Keep bringing more!]
Caw!
(Yes!)
To suppress the two energies for sure, the butler’s core needs to be stronger!
To block the dragon and god energies trying to push each other out, the core needed to balance them with a greater force.
Kking!
[Butler, swallow this!]
While Theo and Cuengi were busy massaging Sejun’s body, Blackie stuffed a core fragment into Sejun’s mouth and…
Pak.
Gulp.
Pressed down with his front paws to make Sejun swallow it.
After making Sejun swallow the three core fragments, they waited for the next one to arrive.
Kking?!
[What is this now?]
Blackie noticed a suspicious movement.
Sejun’s shadow was slowly moving, trying to cover Sejun’s body.
How dare you! Trying to steal my butler’s body?!
Kking!
[Eomdol! Ggomi! Go and take care of it!]
“Yes!”
Kkiruk!
As Eomdol and Ggomi, who received Blackie’s order, touched Sejun’s shadow
Shiver.
Sejun’s shadow suddenly began to tremble.
A moment later.
“Great Blackie-nim, we’ve captured it!”
Eomdol, carrying a black stone larger than himself on his head, brought it to Blackie.
And then…
-Fenrir-nim, please spare me!
As soon as it saw Blackie, the black stone—no, the heart of Dark, the God of Darkness—begged for its life.
***
About three months ago…
‘Sigh. When will Sejun-nim ever get stronger?’
The heart of Dark, the God of Darkness, was waiting impatiently for Sejun to grow stronger and release the seal.
It’s boring…
It fell asleep.
And then…
‘Huh?! Why has Sejun-nim gotten so strong?!’
With this much power, I can release at least 10% of the seal!
Fifteen days ago, after waking from its slumber, Heart of Dark was overjoyed at Sejun’s remarkable improvement.
However…
Huh?! Why does Sejun-nim have dragon bone in his body?!
The dragon bone embedded in Sejun’s body blocked Heart of Dark from approaching him.
You newcomer! Sejun-nim is mine!
Heart of Dark, intending to take over Sejun’s body, was ready to fight with the dragon bone.
But then…
Kkirorong.
Why is Fenrir here?!
Discovering Blackie sleeping on Sejun’s chest, [Heart of Dark] decided to stay absolutely silent, so as not to get caught.
Since its main body had been devoured and sealed by Fenrir, Heart of Dark wasn’t deceived by the cute appearance of Blackie.
I have to tell Sejun-nim!
-Sejun-nim, this guy is dangerous! He’s Fenrir, the god hunting wolf and 1st Seat of the Apostle of Destruction!
Heart of Dark tried to reveal Blackie’s identity to Sejun whenever it had the chance, but…
Ah! Move aside!
Because of the dragon bone, it couldn’t communicate with Sejun.
Heart of Dark kept failing over and over.
‘Wait, is this divine blood?!’
When divine blood was injected into Sejun’s body…
This is my chance!
Heart of Dark tried to join forces with the divine blood to push out the dragon bone, but Blackie caught on, and it ended up being captured by Eomdol and Ggomi.
It was a stroke of luck for Blackie.
And
What if this guy tells butler about my true identity?
Blackie was deep in thought, looking at Heart of Dark, which knew its true identity.
Kikihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. I know what to do! Come here!]
Blackie released Dark’s soul, which was connected to the heart of Dark, the God of Darkness.
Kking!
[Now that you’re free, go back!]
Blackie extracted the residual thoughts from Heart of Dark and sent them back to the main soul.
That left only the lifeless heart of Dark in front of Blackie.
Kking!
[Butler, swallow this!]
Blackie fed Heart of Dark to Sejun, using it as material along with the core to enhance his powers.
Kikihit. Kking…
[Hehe. Now I’m tired…]
I need to get… 30 pieces of dried sweet potatoes from butler…
Kyororong.
After feeding Sejun 10 core fragments and enhancing his powers, Blackie fell asleep, and his subordinates settled down next to Blackie and also fell asleep.
***
“Mmm.”
Sejun, who had fainted from the pain of having his blood replaced, slowly regained consciousness.
“Chairman Park, are you okay, meow?!”
Cueng?!
[Dad, are you alright?!]
Theo and Cuengi, who had been massaging Sejun, asked worriedly.
“Yeah, I’m fine. Actually, I feel even better.”
As Sejun responded energetically and sat up,
Roll, roll.
Blackie and his subordinates, who had been sleeping on Sejun’s chest, rolled down a few times and landed on his stomach.
Kikihit…
Blackie was smiling widely in his sleep as if dreaming of something nice.
Sejun carefully placed the Blackie family, who were sleeping on his stomach, into the sling bag and tried to stand up when…
“Chairman Park, you shouldn’t get up yet, meow!”
Theo urgently stopped Sejun, as if something terrible had happened.
“Why? Is something wrong with me?”
I feel fine, though?
“You’re not fine at all, meow! Your face looks terrible, meow! Chairman Park, you’ve been frowning so much that you now have wrinkles on top of your ugly face, meow! We need to fix it right away, meow!”
I can’t allow Chairman Park to look even more shabby when meeting Aileen noona tomorrow, meow!
Theo had his own desperate reason, but…
“…”
He failed to gain Sejun’s sympathy.
It’s happening again.
As Sejun quietly tried to calm his rising irritation…
“Puhuhut. Don’t worry, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, will smooth out the wrinkles on Chairman Park’s ugly face…”
Theo, completely oblivious, enthusiastically kneaded on Sejun’s face.
Snap.
“I. Said. My face. Isn’t. Ugly.”
“Chairban Bark, if you frown, bore wrinkles will abbear, beow.”
In the end, Sejun exploded and grabbed both of Theo’s chubby cheeks in his hands.
“Meow…”
Hehehe. Let’s see the results of this pain, shall we?
Sejun squeezed and kneaded Theo’s cheeks while checking out the newly acquired power.
‘It was called “God-blood with a touch of divinity”, right?’
As Sejun reviewed the power, he noticed something strange.
“Huh?!”
The power named “God-blood with a touch of divinity” wasn’t there, instead, a different power had appeared.
<Power: Divine Blood Passing Through the Heart of Dark, the God of Darkness>
→ Divine blood is circulating through your body, passing through the heart of Dark, the God of Darkness.
→ Level +10
→ All stats +100
→ All stat potentials +1000
→ Special stat: Divinity is unlocked.
→ Divinity +10
→ Each time the divine blood completes one cycle and passes through the heart of Dark, the God of Darkness, Divinity increases by 0.0001.
→ You can summon a shadow minion that mimics 5% of your strength using the power of darkness. (Due to low Divinity, it cannot mimic your skills.)
“Oh… So the heart of Dark, the God of Darkness, has merged with the power.”
Right. I did have the Heart of Dark.
As Sejun read the description, he remembered something he had forgotten.
But Divinity has been unlocked?
Sejun continued reading the explanation.
Stats: Divinity (10.0252/100)
He could see the Divinity stat.
The messy decimal places seemed to result from the fact that Divinity increased by 0.0001 each time the blood completed a cycle through the heart.
So, has it been about two hours since I passed out?
[The divine blood has passed through the heart of Dark, the God of Darkness.]
[Divinity has increased by 0.0001.]
A message appeared every 30 seconds or so indicating that Divinity had increased. Sejun calculated the passage of time based on the increments, aside from the 10 Divinity he gained from the power.
“Summon shadow minions.”
Sejun summoned the shadow minions to check the last explanation.
‘This time it should work, right?’
Recalling the previous time when his magic power was too low to summon any shadow minions, Sejun waited for them to appear.
At that moment,
Seurek.
From Sejun’s shadow, figures began to rise one by one, each wearing a straw hat, identical to Sejun’s shadow.
In total, five shadow minions rose, waiting for Sejun’s orders.
When Sejun examined one of the shadow minions
[Park Sejun’s Shadow Minion]
→ A shadow minion mimicking the Black Tower’s Tower farmer, Park Sejun.
Stats:
– Strength (155)
– Stamina (180)
– Agility (150)
– Magic Power (225)
Unique Skill: Son of Darkness (Master)
→ The minion will disappear in three days. (When it disappears, it will report everything it has seen and heard to its master.)
The description was displayed.
“Oh, it even has a unique skill?” freeweɓnvel.com
The Son of Darkness skill increased its abilities by 20% at night.
“Hmm.”
For now, I’ll make them carry some luggage.
The shadow minions didn’t have any farming or cooking skills, making it awkward to assign them tasks related to those areas.
“Sejun 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, help the mushroom ants transport the crops to the storage.”
Nod.
When the shadow minions moved in response to Sejun’s orders, he checked out the new title he had earned.
<Title: One Who Commands a God>
– Gods who face you will be intimidated.
“Gods who face me become intimidated?”
While it sounded good, Sejun wasn’t exactly thrilled about it.
Even if gods might get intimidated when they see him, he would still likely die if he faced them.
Having accumulated plenty of real battle experience, Sejun wasn’t easily swayed by such things anymore.
After confirming his newly acquired power and title, Sejun,
“How much time is left until the competition?”
He went to the altar to check the time.
[Time left to register for the competition – 29 minutes 34 seconds]
[Current number of registered participants]
– Black Tower 99th floor: 301,887
– Black Tower 4th floor: 55,214
– Silver Tower 82nd floor: 113,313,191
Once again, the number of participants from the Silver Tower surpassed 100 million.
“Why are there so many participants from this place?”
It was way too many.
Sejun wondered if the Silver Tower had an insanely large population.
He didn’t think that all the residents of the tower were gathered on just one floor.
Hehehe. Then I can probably recruit a lot of employees there, right?
His desire to head to the Silver Tower grew a little stronger.
At that moment…
-Sejun, can I get some Samyangju… huh?! Sejun, why do I sense divine blood in you?!
Kellion, who had come to buy Samyangju to comfort Kaiser, who was depressed after being banished by Aileen, looked at Sejun and asked with a sharp voice.
“Huh? Well, that’s…”
Just as Sejun was about to explain…
-Dark, you bastard! What have you done to our Sejun?!
-Sejun, are you alright?!
-Dark, I won’t let you off easy if I catch you!
Upon hearing Kellion’s voice, Kaiser, Ramter, and Tier hurriedly flew over and examined Sejun.
They were worried about the clash between the dragon bones and the divine blood in Sejun’s body.
But…
-Huh?! He’s fine?
-What’s this? Something’s preventing the clash of powers.
After discovering Blackie’s core within Sejun’s body, they sighed in relief.
-It’s a relief, but… does that mean our Sejun is a hybrid now?
-Yeah, a hybrid is a hybrid…
“What Hybrid?! Call me Hybrid Sejun!” (TL: See the explaination below.)
Sejun shouted, flaring up at the dragons’ words.
*****
TL Note:
Basically, the word ‘hybrid’ (??) used by dragons is in Korean and is considered a kind of insult. However, the word ‘Hybrid’ (?????) that Sejun is using is in English, and the difference is that in Korea, the English word is commonly used for things like cars and other electrical technology, which is seen as a positive thing. It doesn’t carry the same negative connotation as the Korean word ‘hybrid.’
I hope this makes it somewhat clearer.
