Episode 503:
The birth of a new archduke.
That is something that happens with a slim probability over a long period of time.
When Baal created the anti-aircraft system and headed to Upper World, and when the King of Lower Realm, who was of human origin, selected new archrivals.
Those who became the new Grand Dukes were people with extraordinary presence who had distinguished themselves since they were the highest species.
All of them were mutants qualified to possess great power, and there was a reason why they had no choice but to possess great power.
Vampire Lord Igmun and Succubus Queen Rosaria.
They assisted the former Grand Duke Lilith and the King of the Underworld, and were equipped with enormous vessels and presence.
Demon Beast King Orgal.
He stood out in the race war ever since he was a member of the highest species.
Giant King Typhon.
He was a great king, even if he did not have a natural desire for strength with a great body and presence.
The Demon King Jormungand and the Demon King Gilfer.
They were born as one of the highest-ranking species, but they worked quietly and secretly for a long time to achieve the rank of grand duke.
Dragon Lord Hazard.
She became the strongest creature in the Lower World simply by inheriting the bloodline of Baal, who became the Demon Dragon King and King of the Upper World.
Elven, the fairy king, and Lucifer, the fallen angel.
They also possessed great power, but were downgraded by their respective archdukes and heavenly masters.
A being born with enormous power of existence.
A being who was elected as king by uniting multiple species.
A being who has existed for a long time and has built power in his own way.
A being who has the potential to become the King of the Underworld at any time.
That was the Archduke.
Even if you are a top-class monster that lives forever, it is not easy.
A new grand duke is born among humans with finite lives?
Elven could not easily understand Taehyun’s words.
[Are you serious?]
“So, ‘very possibly’.”
An anti-aircraft contractor is simply a contractor.
No matter how hard they try, the only thing they can achieve is the top level of the highest class.
Taehyun, called the key, broke through the limit with the power of ‘predation’.
Cody Cruz, who held a piece of God, was able to reach the Archduke’s presence, albeit to a limited extent, through the power of ‘regeneration’.
A fragment of the Underworld King’s power and god.
It must be said that there is no possibility that a person who has been chosen to this degree will be born again.
[contractor. What on earth are you thinking?]
He said he couldn’t understand it.
Elven urged Taehyun to answer.
“I’m going to use Shinsu.”
[…Shinsu? If you are thinking of forcing people to assimilate like you did, it would be better to give up. The magical power of the Divine Beast is not something that a single anti-aircraft contractor can handle. If it is not an already completed archduke, it will actually result in hastening death.]
Even if there is a being that can withstand the magical power of the divine beast, it will become meaningless as it is trapped in the shackles of time.
The twisted flow of time can lead to the worst situation.
She made a plausible assumption.
“Although it is unlikely. “That’s also a possibility.”
[….]
“Don’t worry. “After listening, your thoughts will change a little.”
Taehyun’s short explanation continued, leaving silence behind.
And at the end.
[Indeed… it is not impossible.]
The excited Elven’s red eyes flashed.

“President of the Association. The next report is about China…”
Ji Jin-hee frowned at Chief Secretary Lee Jae-jun’s words.
Now I couldn’t suppress the rush of hysteria just hearing that name.
This is because the world situation, which had been seeking stability, was once again shaken by them.
The starting point was a huge gate that occurred over China.
It was a natural step for the world organization to request information sharing due to the response being higher than any other breakage level that had occurred so far.
but.
What came back was an absurd answer: ‘It’s an internal matter.’
Rather, it was followed by a sign of displeasure and the blocking of information under the pretext of ‘confidentiality’.
Unilateral notification and blocking of exchanges.
It was from then on.
The demons who had lost their power started running rampant again.
Kasim Zort, known as the worst demon.
Min Ji-hong is considered the worst demon.
Former Taesan Guild leader Lee Jeong-jae.
Liu Shibo, former president of the China Players Association.
The world’s trash that has graced a page of history has reappeared.
Nightmares from the past began to resurface everywhere.
Monsters called higher species were summoned, and the looting of the demons was carried out.
As world organizations grasped the truth and player associations in each country took political action, the damage spread.
Ji Jin-hee moved faster than anyone else.
Min Ji-hong and Lee Jeong-jae.
Because their roots are New Koreans, they are related to them, whether deeply or shallowly.
You cannot be free from the responsibility that will follow.
“You don’t have to worry. “Even if Kim Tae-hyun is not there, the new Korea is not what it used to be.”
Jaejun Lee gave strength to Jinhee Ji’s plan.
The overall level of the player has improved compared to when he was active on the field.
Superlative Upper Intermediate Low.
The player distribution chart, which had a pyramid structure, took on an inverted triangle structure, with intermediate and advanced players growing significantly.
Now, it is not unusual to find a player from New Korea in the world rankings, and Yoo Ah-young showed overwhelming strength in the recent Majin subjugation and rose to first place in the world rankings.
Just like Taehyun did in the past.
Now, she is raising the honor of New Korea by carrying the sign of being the strongest player.
Is that all?
Park Seong-jin, Kwon Kang-hyuk, Kwak Si-yang, Lim A-young and Ji Jin-hee.
The orthodox strong players who had gone through Taehyun’s rigorous training grew to the SSS level and provided solid support for the top-tier team, and several talented players, led by Ahn Hyun-soo, grew to the SS level and were leading the 1st and 2nd divisions.
Taehyun Kim.
“The seed that child planted has finally bloomed.”
Not much time has passed.
In less than five years, it has become a powerhouse that was never dreamed of in the past.
Although it is dark news about Taehyun, who created the new Korea of today.
This was the reason why he could not be as excited as other executives or players in the association.
Lee Jae-jun, who was watching Ji Jin-hee’s thoughts, continued the report.
“Former association president Ryusbo was found not guilty of criminal acts. “I have intelligence that he will soon be reappointed as president of the China Players Association.”
“It was only a little while ago that I cut off my tail. “They are truly shameless.”
“If there was such a thing, we wouldn’t have created the current situation in the first place.”
Jaejun Lee muttered with a bitter expression.
There was a time in the past when New Korea was ranked third in Asia, behind China and Japan.
If New Korea had power back then.
If only it could have acted as a mediator rather than a breakwater.
The world would not be as harsh as it is now.
At best, the players’ power has risen to the level of being called a powerhouse.
The world was no longer in a situation that could be controlled by the player’s individual status.
“The world is not ruined yet. “It’s never too late to make a desperate evaluation later.”
“sorry.”
“It’s okay. “Please continue reporting.”
Disease research institutes throughout China identified by Night Walker are listed.
Yoo Ah-young secretly infiltrated to slit Ryu Shibo’s head, Park Seong-jin, who was moving with Asisat Ebi, identified Kassim Jort’s hideout, Kwon Kang-hyuk and Kwak Si-yang contacted the saint and surrounded Min Ji-hong, and Lim Ah-young and Ahn Hyun-soo entered Korea. Lee Jeong-jae’s location was determined.
All locations have been identified.
Now, just one word from Ji Jin-hee.
A ‘battle’ that would become a ‘war’ was about to begin.
“How ironic. “You have to go to war to get rid of the trash.”
“I agree.”
I’ve already been thinking about it for a few nights.
It didn’t take long for the order to be given.
“I am authorizing engagement with the assumption of death. As the president of the association, I will take on all international responsibilities that will arise from now on. “Please let your players know.”
“…All right.”
The crown of being the president of the New Korea Players Association.
Jaejun Lee bowed his head deeply as he watched Ji Jinhee calmly trying to carry the weight.
“I guess I should get ready soon too. “Now I feel like I’m getting older every day like a year.”
“You’re joking too far. “I will prepare a training room.”
“Please.”
Ji Jin-hee took off her suit and checked her body in the mirror.
It reached SSS level and aging stopped.
Instead of countless scars symbolizing that he had lived a miserable life, smoothly trained muscles were visible.
“It won’t be long now.”
If you step down from your position as the president of the association.
I planned to work as a player for the association.
‘Taehyun should be able to handle this even without that child.’
Ji Jin-hee headed to the training room, recalling that not-so-distant day.

Colombia. Santa Fe de Bogotá.
“Hey~ It turned into a monster while I didn’t see this.”
Asisat Ebi was in awe as she watched Madhu regenerate her severed arm.
Kassim Zort.
Unlike the past, when the word old monster was appropriate.
Now he is a demon-type monster.
Among them, it would not be strange to hear that it was a being called the Great Devil.
“Cluck cluck. “You climbed over the wall without me even seeing you?”
“What follows after a downfall is sweet growth.”
Asisat Ebi said something strange.
Taehyun becomes Hazard’s new contractor and her fate changes.
I went through a torture-like time to be used as a spare as good as a contractor at Rare.
And later, at Taehyeon’s request, Hazzard returned Asisat Ebi to Earth.
Even if it is a spare, it is not completely free from the influence of the Archduke.
As a specific example, for some time now she has been feeling that the magical power she can use has been drastically reduced.
Yoo Ah-young, who can be considered the Succubus Queen’s spare, confirmed that she was in a similar situation.
‘Turf war.’
Although she thinks it is the aftermath of that terrible war.
For some reason, access to deeper areas was blocked, so there was no way to check.
On the contrary, Kasim Zort seemed to have no restrictions in using his enormous magical power even though he did not have a contracted archduke.
“There are no restrictions, but there is such a force of existence. “Isn’t it a bug?”
She playfully asked Park Seong-jin, who was assisting next to her.
“Since when did the demons move based on the situation?”
“Well, that’s true too.”
“Hehehe. Lucifer seems to have won the turf war. Even in the world of monsters, the fact that you have to hold the line well remains the same.”
“Watch your mouth. Madhu.”
She warned Mine about Taehyeon’s defeat.
Park Seong-jin also knew the general situation, so he answered by raising his sword.
“Foolish. “There is a limit to the thoughts that insects who have not encountered Him can think.”
“Please exert yourself a little more. “Preparations to create a new world are in full swing.”

China. Nanjing.
Crack.
Liu Shibo’s body was torn apart by the tentacles that wrapped around his neck.
Yoo Ah-young did not miss that opportunity.
Kwasik.
Another tentacle exploded Liu Shibo’s head.
