Chapter 414: Epilogue 5

Translator: miraclerifle

“I really can’t understand it.”

The team members looked serious after hearing Jaeha’s comment.

They were all in charge of different aspects to help out the Majesty.

They were all gathered at a table looking at a map artifact.

The map artifact, that was in the shape of a tablet, was showing different things in set intervals.

They were the locations of the suspicious holes that Ju-Heon had lately had to deal with.

The suspicious bastards coming out of the hole were all heinous artifacts that ate humans.

They weren’t sure about the identity of these things, but they were sure that they were artifacts.

However, they were all mysterious artifacts that had not been recorded in Ju-Heon’s Akashic records.

Some of them were too familiar to be considered nameless apocalypse artifacts not recorded in the Akashic records.

For example, there was one that looked very similar to the Gold axe Silver axe.

‘They should be submitting to the Majesty’s power if they are artifacts.’

But they didn’t seem to do that.

Ju-Heon, and none of them, had any idea about these suspicious monsters.

Who the hell were they and what was their goal for coming here?

Julian, who was serving as Ju-Heon’s Chief of Staff, started frowning.

“It is difficult for me to understand as well. The way they act seems to have a pattern…”

“No, that’s not what I am talking about!”

Jaeha glared in anger.

He was raging while looking at the plates on the table.

“Why is my food and your food different?!”

“!”

Their eyes opened wide while looking at the food on the table.

Maybe it was normal for Jaeha to be angry.

Their lunches had sweet and sour pork, Jajangmyeon, tonkatsu, and kimchi-jjigae.

Dan’s amazing cooking skills were on display with the different cuisines visible.

On the other hand, Jaeha…

“How come I am still getting chocolate food?!”

“!”

That was right.

Jaeha’s plate was still full of brown goopy things.

There was a tiramisu with chocolate flowing through it like the Han river, chocolate french fries, chocolate curry, chocolate rice, chocolate noodles, etc.

It was a world of brown on his plate.

“I’ve been eating this for a whole month already!”

Jaeha shouted while looking at Dan.

“So why is their food normal but my menu still looks like this?!”

The team members clicked their tongues.

“What can you do? Valhalla’s ingredient storage room is still full of chocolate.”

“That’s right. We sold most of what he bought and used up some of the rest in different ways, but we still have to eat the ones that Ah-Rin unwrapped. There’s still a few tons of it left.”

The team members responded calmly, but Jaeha shouted back with rage.

“So how come I’m the only one who has to eat it?! What about you guys?! We should all eat it together if we need to eat it!”

“What can you do? It is the Captain’s orders.”

“?!”

Jaeha looked toward Dan with confusion and Dan responded in a consoling tone.

“Jaeha, you use the Phoenix artifact. You need to eat a high-calorie diet anyway, so the Majesty said to leave it to his restorer…”

‘This dog-like master bastard!’

“Hey! I may need a ton of calories, but I can’t eat something this terrible every day!”

Ilya laughed while looking at Jaeha, who looked as if he would throw the plate.

“What’s the problem? You don’t get fat no matter how much you eat. You take care of that for us.”

“What?!”

“What’s wrong? It’s great since you like sweet things. Plus, the Captain only got the highest quality chocolates. Each piece is probably worth tens of thousands of won. Ah, I’m so jealous.”

“Shut up! You eat it if you’re so jealous!”

“Well, keep suffering. Following this trend, you’ll have a ton of candy to eat next month.”

Yoo Jaeha cried.

“That Captain bastard, one day, I’m really going to kill him.”

However, Jaeha still ate the food, despite crying internally, because the desserts Dan made were so delicious.

Ilya returned the group back to the topic.

“Anyway, what did the Majesty say about these holes?”

“He’s the only one who has been able to go in through that hole and come back out.”

These suspicious holes that suddenly appeared…

They were extremely monstrous.

They felt more like weird holes that appeared in the air rather than feeling like sinkholes.

They were neither big nor small at about 30 cm in diameter, but the problem was that they were extremely dangerous.

“It swallows up cities if you leave it alone.”

That was why Ju-Heon had been going into them and destroying the holes.

But it didn’t seem like a normal hole since he came back with weird spoils every time he came back.

“Anyway, the artifacts that seem to be coming out of the holes… Their so-called liege, the individual behind all of this, is on the other side of the gate as well, right?”

Seol-A nodded her head.

“I think their goal is to kill the Captain-nim. Based on how the artifacts are being controlled, the other side seems to have some Majesty-Grade abilities.”

Who the hell was it and what the hell were they trying to do?

They couldn’t help but be curious about the identity of these holes.

An incident happened not too long after that.

“What? Jaeha disappeared?”

“Yes, I think he got sucked into one of those problematic holes.”

The other team members had serious expressions on their faces after hearing Irene’s concerned comment.

‘Only my husband has been able to go in there so far.’

Ju-Heon put barriers around them so people shouldn’t get sucked in anymore, but none of the people who had been sucked in had made it back alive.

That meant that Jaeha also…

The little ones looked pale after hearing that.

“Is Jaeung-a going to die?”

“Is mwaster going to die?!”

But Ju-Heon didn’t seem to care even after hearing this piece of information.

This was all he had to say.

“Hmm, I guess he’ll suffer a bit.”

“Excuse me?”

“What the hell is this hole?”

“Nothing much.”

Ju-Heon recalled the places he had traveled to through the holes until now.

They were not tombs.

The holes were connected to ‘some world.’

It seemed to be a different dimension.

“Actually, there are some artifacts I still have not managed to submit.”

“!”

They were shocked.

There were artifacts that the mighty Ju-Heon was unable to submit?

Of course, Ju-Heon had only had the Majesty’s powers for a few years.

It usually took tens of years to make artifacts submit, but Ju-Heon was the recorder of time who had the most influence on artifacts compared to all past Majesties.

But there were artifacts that even Ju-Heon was unable to submit?

“Basically, these holes were created by a parallel universe artifact. It is a SSS-Grade artifact born in a different dimension.”

“!”

A parallel world.

The talks about parallel worlds and a multiverse was a glorious topic humans had been discussing for a long time.

In simple terms, there were many different copies of the world split based on forks in the timeline depending on whether incident A happened or not.

Humans had always imagined that such parallel worlds existed, but had never been able to prove it.

The dilemma was that humans would never be able to confirm the existence of another world from the moment it differed from any fork in the timeline.

That was why Ju-Heon had no way of making it submit either.

Why?

‘That bastard is a special artifact that I can’t see its form.’

The parallel universe artifact was an artifact that was born with an attribute that allowed its existence to not be proven.

Although the artifact existed, Ju-Heon could not confirm its true body.

That was why he could not use his Dominance on it.

He could not make any Time Paradox artifacts submit for the same reason.

‘That former Majesty bastard did send me to a parallel world in the past though.’

The former Majesty bastard had sent him to the future, the same world he had been in prior to his regression, during the battle with the apocalypse artifacts.

He might have used this artifact at that time, but there was no way to tell.

‘This bastard is outside of the Majesty’s Authority.’

It seemed to be moving on its own accord, similar to a natural phenomenon. It could be used, but not dominated.

Normally, he should not be able to even notice a multiverse artifact.

However, this bastard was creating these suspicious holes and making its presence known.

It was as if it had a scheme to draw Ju-Heon in.

“Anyway, I went to extremely odd places through these holes. One was a world where humans were gone and it was just full of monsters, while another was a world where I chose Affinity over Dominance.”

“!”

He had had choices to make after the Crow used its powers to send him back to the past.

[Path of Domination]

[Path of Affinity]

He had chosen the Path of Domination, but the world he went to through the parallel universe artifact was a future where he had chosen the Path of Affinity.

Anyway, this artifact seemed to be testing him, the Majesty, as it tried to lock him in a different dimension.

He didn’t know the reason behind it.

‘But it didn’t matter since it wasn’t that hard to get out.’

In fact, he was able to bring some precious items and by-products with him as well.

The proof was in one of Ju-Heon’s Majesty’s Treasures.

He peeked toward the treasure storage device.

There were many items inside this firmly shut storage device.

The place he went to this time had an extremely cool-looking AI called Abyss or something.

He swiped it while he was there.

The people in that world were probably throwing a fit about how it disappeared or whatever, but that wasn’t his problem.

‘All good things are mine.’

It would be one of the gifts he gives to his daughter for her birthday.

“That is why, although I don’t know where the hell Jaeha was dragged into, it should be fine as long as he doesn’t do anything weird.”

Although it was a bit of a hassle to get out, he would just need to find the special exit key.

The only thing left is to find the bastard.

“Akashic records. Bring up the restorer’s records.”

[As you command.]

Ju-Heon waved his hand and golden light sparkled around him before the Majesty’s Library was summoned.

Boom!

The Akashic records returned to the appearance of a thick book.

It then opened to Yoo Jaeha’s record.

He just needed to read through the Akashic records to find where Jaeha was right now.

This was something only the Majesty could do.

Ju-Heon scoffed while reading through the records.

“He is my subordinate, but he is the sharpest one of the bunch. He should quickly notice the situation and wait quietly until I get there.”

Irene and Seol-A laughed in relief as well.

“Anyway, where is this bastard and what is he doing…”

Ju-Heon soon frowned while looking at the record of Jaeha’s actions.

‘This son of a bitch.’

“Excuse me? What did you say?”

“I said that this big bro will help you out.”

Jaeha was currently in a world of the past.

Of the many parallel universes, he had been lucky enough to come to a world where artifacts had yet to appear.

This was a world where Ju-Heon was still only 19 years old.

To be more specific, this was when Ju-Heon was struggling as a pushover for the thugs.

Jaeha, who had coincidentally met the high schooler Ju-Heon when he opened his eyes, instantly realized where this was.

That was to be expected.

‘The Captain-nim has already gone back to the past once because of the Crow.’

It was not impossible with the power of artifacts. Jaeha had a single thought on his mind as soon as he saw the young Ju-Heon.

‘This is my chance to change the future!’

Jaeha had a wicked smile on his face.
