Chapter 207: Defense Specialist (3)
In a world where mutants fall from the sky every day and merchants from all corners of the universe come to trade, the Strongest Swords had adapted relatively quickly.
However, even so.
Shwaaaaaat, kwaaaaang!
They couldn’t help but be surprised by the oversized anchor that fell from the sky out of nowhere.
“Ugh…”
“That can’t be… an anchor?”
“What the hell is going on?”
The Strongest Swords of Seoul reflexively drew their swords, but didn’t dare to raise their blades towards the anchor.
This was because they had learned a lot of meaning through the word “Dogo” that Jeong Yeongwoo had just shouted.
Dogo.
A brand of pan-universal war weapons and a joint-stock company made up of numerous shareholders.
And a military company with Dogo, the Destroyer, the owner of the Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, as its chairman.
The transcendent language that Yeongwoo had shouted contained the scene of the first meeting with Dogo’s shareholders and the atmosphere at the time, so some of the Strongest Swords were so shocked that they staggered.
“What on earth are you doing…?”
Songpa’s Strongest Sword Oh Yeonhee looked at Yeongwoo with her mouth covered.
No matter how strange the world had become, it felt like a very dangerous attempt for a single human to directly contact an ‘alien’.
On the other hand, the reaction of Gwanak’s Strongest Sword Jo Sangik, who had early on seen Yeongwoo’s extraordinary nature, was quite different.
“Oh… my God, Mr. Yeongwoo was a pioneer.”
After learning about Yeongwoo’s incredible history, he admired him even more.
Just as those who first contacted the alien exchange office on the first day of the reset were given early birds, so it must be the same this time.
In this world, you have to overcome your fear and take risks faster than others in order to move forward.
In other words, Jeong Yeongwoo was an ‘early bird’ even among the Strongest Swords.
Of course, Yeongwoo himself didn’t care about what the Strongest Swords thought.
All that mattered to him now was.
“Chairman…!”
Perhaps it was just because he was going to meet the chairman who might have brought the weapon catalog.
[TL/N: After discussing with the PR, we’re changing encyclopedia to catalog as it makes more sense contextually.]
Chup, chup!
As Yeongwoo ran towards the anchor piggybacked on Pofu Tenta, the black iron horse Negwig followed him behind, letting out a long cry.
-Kyuuiii!
Then, the wedge pattern of Dogo appeared in a row along the black trail he left.
This was a kind of ceremonial function for his own chairman.
And at the same time.
Zzuuung!
A quest that had been stuck in the corner of Yeongwoo’s field of vision started flickering.
[Dogo] “The Will of the Deceased”
[Mission] Assassinate Kim Jong-un.
[Reward] Dogo special equipment
[Special] The fact that Dogo is supporting this mission must be disclosed.
“Huh…?”
After being surprised for a moment, Yeongwoo’s eyes filled with anticipation.
Hadn’t he already completed the mission listed in that quest?
On top of that, the fact that the quest text was reacting at the moment the chairman arrived was a coincidence.
‘The chairman came to deliver the reward in person!’
The moment Yeongwoo thought this, “The Will of the Deceased” was actually completed.
Ping!
[Quest Completed – “The Will of the Deceased”]
[Reward Paid]
| Dogo Special Equipment
“Oh, Chairman!”
As Yeongwoo spread his arms wide open, a huge iron lump slowly descended from beyond the sky.
It was the spaceship shaped like the tomb of the chairman of Dogo.
“…Huh?”
“Oh my God.”
“……?”
When the Strongest Swords saw the iron plate the size of a skyscraper appear in the sky above Gangnam, they reflexively shuddered and stepped back, sharpening their swords.
It was so powerful that the Geumgang Yaksha they saw earlier felt like a joke.
After all, the Kim family is only the most wicked existence on this planet, and they are nothing more than common thugs in the universe.
On the other hand, the being that appeared now was the founder of a pan-universal military company.
So, it was natural that his majesty far surpassed that of a mutant on a single planet.
Kugugugugug…
As the endlessly tall iron tomb continued to lower its altitude, the huge chain connecting the anchor and the tomb rattled and twisted.
And finally.
“Oh, that person over there……?”
“What?”
“Look over there!”
The Strongest Swords found something on top of the tombstone and their eyes widened.
That’s because there stood a hulking knight, clad in armor from head to toe.
His figure, looking down at the ground with a large greatsword resting on it, was like a character out of a comic book, and everyone stood there with their mouths open, unable to say a word for a while.
Thanks to that.
“Chairman! I’m here!”
Yeongwoo’s location, the only one making a loud noise, was clearly revealed.
―Jeong Yeongwoo07.
After a while, the chairman looked towards where Yeongwoo was and jumped off the top of the tomb without a moment’s hesitation.
Taat!

[Proofreader – Gun]
“What?”
“Oh!”
“Jo, be careful!”
The Strongest Swords were actually shocked by the chairman’s free fall.
They knew that their opponent was no ordinary person, but from the Strongest Swords’ point of view, it was a free fall from such a high altitude that it would send shivers down their spines just to watch.
Moreover.
“Huh…?”
“Wow, he’s much bigger than I thought he would be?”
His body, which had looked so small when he was on top of the tomb, started to swell up at an incredible speed as he got closer to the ground.
Fwoosh!
Chairman Dogo finally landed right above Yeongwoo’s head.
Descending at high speed, fully absorbing Earth’s gravity, he came to a gentle stop about 3 meters above the ground.
Shuaaat!
“Chairman! I’ve been looking forward to seeing you again.”
As Yeongwoo tilted his head on Pofu Tenta, the chairman moved his gaze inside the helmet and looked at Pofu and Yeongwoo’s right arm, which was in the middle of recovery.
―You seem to be doing well.
He was still wearing the same armor as before.
A helmet that completely covered the front and full-body armor that was dented all over the place.
The only thing different, though.
‘A cape…?’
This time, a cape made of some kind of metal was draped over the chairman’s back and shoulders.
Unlike the armor that bore the clear marks of battle, the cape was strangely clean, so Yeongwoo couldn’t help but ask.
“Are you… on your way somewhere?”
He asked because he thought it might be related to the weapon catalog that the chairman had personally gone to get in order to fulfill the contract.
However, the answer he got was completely different from what he had expected.
―I was called by the council.
“The council…?”
―They’re going to review the contract process for the transfer of the Bastard. It’s true that the order of Earth has been distorted by ‘Myth’.
“…….”
Yeongwoo, who was still a lowly being compared to the chairman, had a hard time understanding even half of what he had just heard.
‘So… does that mean he was summoned somewhere because the council took issue with the transfer of the Mythic weapon?’
In other words, he was being scolded by the council for daring to carry a Myth weapon on Earth while the reset process was still underway.
“Chairman, are you okay? What’s going to happen next?”
As Yeongwoo rolled his eyes to check if the chairman’s limbs were intact, a deep voice came from inside the chairman’s helmet.
―The problem has been resolved, as the councillor who raised the issue has been eliminated.
“Huh?”
The moment the chairman said that, he put his greatsword back in his scabbard, Yeongwoo couldn’t help but think this:
‘No way, even those guys on the council or whatever must be no ordinary beings, but they’re… dead? No, he killed them?’
It was like a businessman who had been called in for a parliamentary inspection had beaten up the National Assembly member who had questioned him.
“Um, Chairman… are you really okay? Isn’t the council that summoned you a pretty high-ranking one?”
As Yeongwoo dared to express his concern about the chairman’s judgment, Dogo tilted his head once and spoke again clearly.
―The problem has been resolved.
“Ah… I guess that’s true since the source of the problem is gone. I was too short-sighted.”
Yeongwoo nodded again.
And he muttered to himself, ‘Crazy bastard Destroyer.’
“So, Chairman, is the Bastard still mine? I’m supposed to pay the acquisition tax by tomorrow.”
If he had to give the Bastard back, the acquisition tax should be canceled as well, right?
To this, Chairman Dogo, instead of giving a precise answer, turned the conversation in an odd direction.
―Are you afraid? To become the master of Myth.
It was clear that even he didn’t know for sure, so he was just beating around the bush.
“No, Chairman, it’s not that.”
It was the moment when Jeong Yeongwoo, the blockhead recognized by the achievement system, broke his stubbornness for the first time.
What kind of conversation could he have with someone who swung his sword around the moment the council officially called him to raise a problem?
“So, the reason you came to Earth today is….”
Yeongwoo lowered his head slightly and stared at the chairman’s empty hands.
Then Dogo laughed softly, as if he knew it all too well.
―The contract will be fulfilled.
(Special Clause) [Expensive Sweat]
-「Dogo」 will procure one of the catalogs of your choice within two days.
-If the deadline is not met, the head office will pay 100 million karma as a penalty.
The weapon catalog that Yeongwoo had set as a special clause condition.
He was telling him that he had brought it within two days as promised.
“Oh, really?”
As Yeongwoo looked around like a child looking for a Christmas present, the chairman raised his head and looked at the sky.
And then.
Piiiiiiing!
A beam of light shot down from the edge of the sky and placed a holographic book right in front of Yeongwoo.
“Ah… this is it.”
The weapon catalog he had been waiting for so long.
Yeongwoo instinctively tried to reach for the catalog, but first looked at the chairman.
―…….
The chairman nodded his head slightly as if to allow contact, and Yeongwoo reached for the weapon catalog.
Poof.
‘It’s already the third catalog.’
Accessories, armor, and weapons.
Yeongwoo couldn’t even begin to imagine how strong he would become now.
「’Weapon Catalog’ has been added to Jeong Yeongwoo07’s data.」
The catalog acquisition message appeared, followed by a special notification that had never appeared before.
「A mythical item has been detected from the catalog list.」
「A mythical catalog will be added.」
