Chapter 70
The news of the successful containment spread quickly. Worldwide celebrations erupted. The immediate threat was neutralized. Humanity had survived.But the Harmony Initiative was in mourning. Three members lost. Not dead, which would be bad enough. But worse. Trapped forever in the Deep Dream. Experiencing eternal nightmare.Baekho barely slept for a week. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw them. Hong Wonho's confident smile. Shin Sola's fierce determination. Lee Rowoon's nervous courage.All gone because he had led them into hell."You need to stop torturing yourself," Choi Iseul said one morning. She had barely left his side since they returned. "They chose to go. They knew the risks.""Knowing the risks does not make losing them easier.""No. But blaming yourself does not help either."Baekho knew she was right. But guilt did not care about logic.The government, meanwhile, was not celebrating. They were planning.Yoon Nari called an emergency meeting. Not just Korean officials.

Baekho considered lying. But he had lied to her enough."I am dying. The life transfer damaged my organs. I have maybe six months left."Choi Iseul went very still. "Six months.""Maybe less if I use too much power.""So tomorrow, when we go into the Deep Dream...""Could be the last time. Yes."She started crying. Quietly. Without sound. Just tears streaming down her face.Baekho held her. "I am sorry. I should have told you sooner.""Why did not you?""Because you would have tried to stop me. Tried to save me. And right now, the world needs saving more than I do.""I need you. Does that not matter?""It matters more than anything. But if I save myself and let everyone else die, what kind of person does that make me?"Choi Iseul had no answer. She just cried into his chest.They sat like that for hours. Holding each other. Knowing it might be the last time.The next morning, Jang Yul opened a portal to the Deep Dream.The team stood before it. Five people about to attempt the impossi

The next morning, Baekho woke up coughing blood. The cost of transferring sixty years of his life to Choi Iseul was manifesting. His body was aging faster internally, even though he still looked seventeen.Dr. Cho Kyul, who had been treating Ha Chaewon and now worked with the Harmony Initiative, examined him thoroughly."Your organs are showing signs of advanced aging," the doctor said grimly. "Your heart, lungs, liver... they are all functioning like those of a seventy year old man. You should not even be able to walk around.""But I can.""Because your supernatural abilities are compensating. But that is temporary. Eventually, your body will give out." Dr. Cho looked at his charts. "You have maybe six months. A year if you are very lucky.""Six months is enough time to save the world. Probably.""This is not a joke, Baekho. You are dying.""I have been dying since I was born. We all have. I am just dying faster." Baekho stood up. "Do not tell anyone else about this. Especially not C

Jang Yul performed the ritual. Drew symbols in blood. Chanted in ancient languages.Baekho felt his life energy flowing out. Into Choi Iseul. Reversing the damage. Restoring her youth.Slowly, her wrinkles faded. Her hair darkened. Her breathing steadied.She became young again. Seventeen. Beautiful. Alive.But Baekho felt it. The emptiness inside. The years he had given up. He could feel his own death now. Closer than before. Inevitable.He had maybe fifteen years left. If he was lucky.But it was worth it.Choi Iseul opened her eyes. "You came back.""Of course. You called me home."They held each other in the middle of the river. Two humans who had touched divinity and survived.But the cost had been severe. And not everyone was happy about what happened.When they returned to Harmony Initiative headquarters, Yoon Nari was waiting with armed guards."Kim Baekho. You are under arrest.""For what?""For becoming a god without authorization. For threatening public safety. For reckless
Chapter 66
The God of Death walked through Seoul leaving destruction in his wake. Not intentional destruction. His very presence warped reality. Buildings cracked. Plants withered. People who got too close aged years in seconds.The government responded immediately. Military forces established a perimeter. Kept civilians away. But they did not attack. How do you attack a god?Yoon Nari watched the satellite feeds with growing horror. "This is what happens when you let someone accumulate too much power. They stop being human. Stop caring about human concerns.""He saved us," Choi Minho argued. "He defeated the Last Dream Lord. Saved two hundred civilians.""And in the process became something worse than the Dream Lords. A god without humanity. Without morality. Without limits." Yoon Nari turned to her advisors. "We need contingencies. Ways to stop him if he goes rogue.""You cannot stop a god with conventional weapons.""Then we find unconventional weapons."Meanwhile, the Harmony Initiative was
Chapter 65
Two hundred people huddled in what used to be a subway station. Now it was a cave made of crystallized screams. The walls pulsed with captured agony."Please help us!" a woman cried when she saw them. "We have been trapped here for days! The monsters... they come at night... take people... we do not know how many are left...""We are here to rescue you," Choi Iseul said gently. "We will get you out."But when they tried to lead the civilians back the way they came, the path was gone. The landscape had shifted. Sealed them in."We are trapped too," Park Hwan said nervously. "This was definitely a trap."Then she appeared.Not Lord Seo Harin. Someone different. The escaped Dream Lord had transformed. Taken a new form.She looked like a Korean woman in her twenties. Beautiful but wrong. Skin too pale. Eyes too bright. Smile too wide."Welcome, Death Walker," she said. Her voice was like breaking glass. "I have been waiting for you.""Who are you?""I am the Last Lord. The final Dream Lor
