Return of the Gates
Jiwoo stared at the blue screen floating in front of him.[ Hidden Quest ]He frowned.“…Hidden again?”The screen shifted.[ Enter a Dungeon ] [ Clear the Boss ]Jiwoo stared.“…Dungeon?”He blinked once.“…Dungeons are already gone.”He sat up on the infirmary bed, rubbing his face.“They were all cleared twenty years ago. That’s common knowledge.”The screen didn’t react.No warning. No explanation. Just the objective sitting there like it expected him to understand.Jiwoo lay back down.“…Yeah. Not dealing with this right now.”He closed his eyes.If the system wanted to kill him for sleeping, then so be it.***Morning came faster than he expected.Jiwoo opened his eyes and immediately groaned.“…My body hurts, that skill really consumes mana higher than I thought.”He checked the screen.[ Daily Quest ] [ Run 5km ] [ 100 Push-Ups ] [ 100 Squats ]He stared at it.“…You again? Can you let me rest? My whole body ached because of that damn shadow step.”There was no penalty listed
Kain Calls Jiwoo & Jiwon’s Parents
Kain’s office was quiet.Baek leaned back on the couch, feet on the table, eating some unknown snack.Soomin sat properly, arms folded, trying not to look at Baek’s crumbs on the floor.Kain stared at the communication crystal on his desk.Baek broke the silence.“So… are you really calling them?”Kain didn’t answer right away.“Yes.”Baek blinked. “Wow. You’re serious.”Soomin tilted her head slightly. “You’re informing them about what happened?”“Yes.”Baek sat up. “Do we… need helmets or shields before they answer?”Soomin sighed. “Why would we need shields?”Baek scratched his head. “You ever met angry parents of overpowered children?”Kain tapped the crystal.It lit up.A faint glow filled the room.A voice came first before the image.“Oh? You called?”The image formed.A man with calm, sharp eyes and black hair tied loosely behind his neck appeared.Beside him, a woman with soft eyes and long silver hair leaned closer to the screen.Mirae and Seojin.Mirae squinted.“…You calle
Death Quest
Jiwoo blinked his eyes open.The ceiling was white.“Ah… right. Infirmary.”His head felt heavy. His body felt like he had been squeezed and left to dry.He tried moving his fingers.“…At least they’re still here.”He slowly pushed himself up.The door opened.“Good morning, sleeping beauty.”Jiwoo turned his head.Jiwon walked in with a small paper bag in her hand. She looked way too awake for someone who watched him almost die a few days ago.“You look like you got hit by a truck,” she said, walking closer. “Or a meteor. Or maybe both.”“Nice… to see you too,” Jiwoo muttered.She sat beside him and flicked his forehead.“Idiot.”“Ow.”“You scared everyone.”He gave a tired smile. “You’re exaggerating.”“I’m not.” She crossed her arms. “You went unconscious so badly, Instructor Baek thought you died for half a second.”“…he did?”“Yeah.” Jiwon leaned closer. “He almost yelled at Hyunwoo.”Jiwoo chuckled weakly.“So… who won?”Jiwon tilted her head. “Technically him.”He sighed. “Figu
Successor of the Monarch
Darkness.Jiwoo stood in the middle of it.No walls.No floor.No sky.Just black.He looked down.“…I’m here again.”He remembered this place.He had been here before.When he fought Instructor Baek.When he lost control for a second.When that strange power first moved.Footsteps echoed.Slow.Calm.Someone appeared out of nowhere in front of him.Jiwoo raised his head.A tall figure stood there.“…Monarch?”“Yes.”“You brought me here again?”“No.”“Your body brought you.”“Your body can’t handle my power yet.”Jiwoo clenched his hand.“So that was your power?”“Yes.”“So I almost lost control because of you?”“No, You didn’t lose control.” The Monarch replied.“You resisted.” He added.Jiwoo stayed quiet.He thought for a second.“…Since when?”“Since before you were born.”Jiwoo looked up.“…Before?”“You absorbed my core, when you were still inside your mother.”Silence.Jiwoo stared.“…That’s not funny.”“I’m not joking.”Jiwoo exhaled slowly.“So that’s why…”“The dreams.”“Th
After the Explosion
The arena was filled with dust and smoke.The students stared, frozen.One voice broke the silence.“Hey… the barrier broke…!”Another shouted, “Look! The smoke’s clearing!”The dust thinned just enough that the crowd could finally see the two figures inside.Jiwoo lay flat on the ground, unconscious, sword a few steps away.Kang Hyunwoo was still up, but barely — one knee down, breathing hard, sweat dripping from his chin. His right hand trembled, faint sparks of fire and wind flickering around him.“What the hell happened in there?”“No way… they blew up the instructor barrier!”“Did Jiwoo had a second awakening or something?!”In the stands—Minjae gripped the railing. “Bro… Jiwoo…?”Rina’s eyes stayed locked on the arena. “So that’s what you meant… when you said Jiwoo put a scratch on Instructor Baek.”Jiwon’s head snapped toward her.“…Jiwoo scratched Instructor Baek?”Minjae let out a sarcastic laugh. “Wow. The Dancing Blade was outdated in news, huh?”Jiwon slowly turned her he
When the Flame Meets the Void
Their blades of flame and steel met mid-field— and the world went white.A blast of air swept across the arena, shaking the stands. The crowd screamed, hands flying to their faces as the shockwave hit them a beat late.Hyunwoo slid back across the tiles, fire crackling around his legs. Jiwoo was pushed even farther, boots digging trenches until he regained balance.Both stared at each other.Hyunwoo wiped a smear of blood from his lip. “Not bad. You actually made me bleed.”Jiwoo pointed his sword forward. “I’m not done.”Hyunwoo grinned. “Good—because I’m getting bored again.”Fire erupted around him. Five sigils lit up at once, spinning fast. Heat blasted outward, so intense the barriers around the arena flickered.Jiwoo rushed in.Hyunwoo snapped his fingers. “Scatter.”The sigils fired all at once—fireballs exploding from every angle. Jiwoo cut through the first, dodged the second, rolled under the third. The fourth grazed his shoulder, burning through fabric.The fifth hit the gr
