The examination from the Divine Council revealed a problem in self-regulating attention. Nari had mentioned such words.

“He hasn’t seen the task through to the end.” When he asked a doctor, it was said to have an impact as well.

Jeong Suho thought that such a tendency must have had a negative influence on Nari.

However, he heard that it was okay. Even if not completely fixed, he could still be by her side.

“But even so, I said it’s okay because I have many strengths.”

He believed that he had many strengths.

In everything, there was a mixture of both good and bad aspects.
Realizing this, Jeong Suho decided to use his disposition to his advantage.

Upon doing so, the characteristic of ‘overconcentration,’ which was an abnormal condition, came to mind. The concept of time and spatial awareness disappeared.

Uncontrollable and excessive concentration squeezed out every last drop of magical power.

By combining the characteristic of focusing solely on the target to be dealt with, a Ranger’s skill of declaring an area, he could achieve an effect where all obstacles, including himself and the goal, disappeared.

Then, he swiftly cleared away the annoying things in front of him. Of course, now he had returned to the state of ‘abnormal condition,’ but.

“I can now change this back into a ‘characteristic.’ I figured out a way.”

【…What do you want.】

Minotaurus mumbled, looking at Jeong Suho. It was a perfect defeat. He hadn’t even developed a strange characteristic.

An extraordinary characteristic that completely ‘deleted’ obstacles to the set target.

Now the relationship between Minotaurus and Jeong Suho had reversed. Jeong Suho was no longer afraid of him.

Minotaurus opened his eyes wide with surprise.

In a situation where he had no need for regret, he couldn’t understand why this man was doing this.

Soon, Jeong Suho spoke.

“Give me the resources, but not excessively. I’ll only take what’s enough for you to create gates and maintain your influence. Just close your eyes up to the point where you don’t get greedy.”

【What?】

“So, I have to work.”
Ridiculous but valid, it was the reason. Minotaurus looked only at the cave above.

Through several bold moves, he had a rough idea of Jeong Suho’s personal information.

Guild War Deity of a government guild, S-rank among them.

He was an extraordinarily clean man, almost strangely so.

“Well, everyone did a great job! Hey, safely subdue the Rank 2 gate, release all abnormal conditions, truly a benefactor. Benefactor.”

“Let them go home. Don’t detain them anymore. My partner is tired from treating you all.”

From the back, the quiet sound of a car engine starting was heard. The day after they cleared the ‘Labyrinth of Crete’ gate.

After concluding all the schedules at the Guild War Deity, they descended back to the southern border.

Beyond the first barbed wire where they first met Lee Jisung, a van sent directly by the temple was waiting.

Kang Yihyun had already boarded, and it was just when Rood was about to get in.

“Ah, yes, take this and go.”

“What’s this? Glasses?”

Lee Jisung handed me a glasses case. When I opened it with a click, a round frame glasses adorned with obsidian shone.

“He said sunglasses don’t suit you well, right? I had one made that suits you well. It’s quite expensive, so be careful.”

“Hmm.”

With a click, Rood took out the glasses and hung them on his ear. The obsidian shining on the glasses string sparkled, capturing the attention.
However, facing each other no longer intimidated the opponent.

“Do they suit me well?”

“Uh, yeah. They look good on you.”

Behind Lee Jisung, Jeong Suho smiled and clapped his hands a few times.

Lee Jisung looked at Jeong Suho with a strange expression.

After coming out of Minotaurus’s gate, Jeong Suho continued to playfully chase after Rood, smiling awkwardly.

For Nari, such a sight of Jeong Suho was more familiar. However, it must have been quite awkward since in the Guild War, Jeong Suho was famous among colleagues for his sharp actions and fiery temper.

Moreover, when everyone in the Guild War asked if Jeong Suho and Rood were familiar or close, after a brief hesitation, he said they were going to become close from now on, making it all the more strange.

“Yeah, thanks. I appreciate it. I’m leaving. Next time, or… no, I won’t come up again. Come down.”

“Yeah, I will. I’ll definitely come down. S-see you next time.”

“Yeah, keep in touch.”

“Yeah!”

With Jeong Suho’s simple reply, Rood waved his hand a couple of times and turned around. Now was really the time to go back.

Thunk, and in the back seat of the black van, Kang Yihyun, sitting next to the driver’s seat, opened his eyes almost indifferently.

A temple staff member, who confirmed that everyone had fastened their seat belts, drove the car.

“Are you really okay?”

“Yes, I’m just a little tired. Don’t worry.”

Kang Yihyun, with a pale complexion, smiled casually as usual and held my wrist.
After facing Minotaurus, Kang Yihyun’s condition was strange.

While Jeong Suho was talking with Nari, Kang Yihyun had decided to draw Minotaurus’s attention from the front.

For some reason, he couldn’t use the Holy Sword, but he said he could do it.

So, Nari trusted him and left it to him. However, after Jeong Suho stepped forward, Kang Yihyun’s condition deteriorated rapidly.

In that situation, even if they noticed his change, there was nothing they could do other than supporting his body, which was difficult to restrain.

That was also the reason why the temple’s car came to pick them up. Rood, who noticed Kang Yihyun’s abnormality, immediately contacted the temple.

It felt strange. Yihyun’s abilities had changed dramatically from his deep world.

Even when fighting Minotaurus, he used unfamiliar tools and a silver dagger, not his usual white armor and Holy Sword.

Moreover, the power he used was not Holy Power but magic. A power completely opposite to Holy Power. Something a regular priest could never use.

‘Can you normally use both Holy Power and magic simultaneously?’

Naturally, such a question came to mind. As if answering that question, a message popped up.

[Chaos Dominator explains that among all classes, only ‘Abyss Priests’ can use magic.]

“…What?”

Rood opened his eyes wide.

It was a message he received after a long time, with no messages since coming out of the deep world.
The Chaos Dominator spoke again.

[Priests, if they fail to meet certain conditions, will be corrupted and their Holy Power will turn into magic. This is explained to you once again.]

‘…Is Chaos Dominator shamelessly mocking me? Without saying where he did what?’

The Chaos Dominator remained silent. Rood glanced at Kang Yihyun with a side-eye.

Kang Yihyun, with a pale complexion, turned his head towards himself, looking out the window.

“Hey, you…”

Could it be that Kang Yihyun did something that led to the mention of corruption? The Archangel’s emissary.

Rood, who had thought little of it, looked at Kang Yihyun and spoke. He still didn’t answer.

“Kang Yihyun? …Yihyun?”

Suddenly feeling a bitter taste, Rood grabbed his shoulder. Thud, Kang Yihyun’s head dropped lifelessly.

“…Huh?”

He was losing consciousness, and blood was dripping from his nose. In the meantime, Rood noticed red blood seeping from his abdomen and urgently shouted.

“Hospital! Let’s go to the hospital quickly! To a hospital that treats Awakened Beings!”
