Legend of Legends

Elise was astonished.

“It’s a success!”

Even though the monster waves were catastrophic, now she could teleport with Junhyuk to stop them. On top of that, Eltor had lost his post.

Elise pulled something out of her Spatial Bag. It was a chair for her to sit to tan under the sun. Sitting down comfortably, she smiled and said, “I’ve always liked scenes like this in the movies.”

“Don’t you have a parasol?”

Elise smirked and replied, “I have something better.”

She waved her hand, and Moon Core floated above her head and released a blue energy field. Sarang started to laugh.

“Is that an energy field?”

“That’s right. I blocks sun rays.”

Sarang, who was now shaded, pulled out a mattress and sat on it. Junhyuk also sat on the mattress.

He looked up at the sky from underneath the blue energy field and felt refreshed. Looking around, he said, “We can now travel the world.”

“We need a plane just for fun.”

“Planes are uncomfortable.”

“You are right.”

Elise smiled at him and asked, “You’ll take me anywhere I want, right?”

After some thought, Junhyuk asked, “Should we go see Gongon?”

No one had been hurt by his last teleportation, so he wanted to try crossing dimensions with them.

The two women’s eyes beamed. Neither of them had experienced true dimensional travel.

Junhyuk increased the quantity of Harmonizer he was using and grabbed them by the hand. Then, he crossed over. As he came up against the dimensional wall, his bracelet shone and guided the way for him. Junhyuk reappeared in Gongon’s lair, but the hatchling wasn’t there.

Contacting Gongon through his communication orb, he asked, “Where are you?”

“I’m in my lair. Where are you?”

“In your lair. I brought company.”

“Who?”

Elise and Sarang walked up to Junhyuk, and when Gongon saw them, he was stunned.

“You can take others with you when you use the dimensional shift now? You are fearless! Did you test for safety beforehand?”

“I used it on Earth and teleported with both of them.”

“Right. Wait a second. I’m coming back.”

“Are you in your battleship?”

“Ah! I’m not travelling through dimensions, so teleporting here should be easy.”

Junhyuk suddenly felt a burst of mana waves, so he took Elise and Sarang to where Gongon kept the battleship.

Gongon was there waiting for them.

Junhyuk had already seen it, but Elise and Sarang were seeing it for the first time. From mage’s standpoint, the battleship was an incredible achievement, and from a magical engineering perspective, it was even more impressive.

Both women understood that better than Junhyuk, so Gongon started to explain the details of the battleship with enthusiasm.

Junhyuk couldn’t understand anything Gongon was saying, so he chuckled and looked around.

Gongon started the battleship, and Junhyuk teleported to the deck and focused on polishing Harmonizer. He could also train there. They were flying through the sky, and the warm breeze was hitting his skin. He focused on training.

Elise and Sarang were curious about the battleship’s composition, so Junhyuk trained on his own. He had been meditating for a while when a shadow loomed over his face.

“Sleeping?”

“Training.”

“Right.”

“We are facing stronger enemies.”

Thinking about it, Junhyuk wasn’t sure he could defeat Artlan’s team, but he wanted to do his best. Gongon pushed a piece of candy inside Junhyuk’s mouth, and Junhyuk rolled it around with his tongue. He knew Gongon was stashing those, so he smiled.

Gongon sucked on his own piece of candy and sat next to him.

“You can travel through dimensions now. You might be able to use that in the Dimensional Battlefield.”

“They’ll restrict it.”

“They might not.”

“Is that even a possibility?”

“What about Elise’s buff?”

“True.”

Elise’s buff was better than most ultimates, so Junhyuk started wondering if his Dimensional Shift would work.

“But, I need to be able to acquire coordinates.”

“Right…”

Junhyuk could teleport with others, so if there were no restrictions to it in the Dimensional Battlefield, he would be truly strong.

Gongon touched Junhyuk’s bracelet and said, “I’ll set it for three places you want, but you need to tell me the places you’ve been to. I’ll give you the coordinates then. Check to see if you can use the Dimensional Shift in the Dimensional Battlefield first.”

“There’s one more problem.”

“What is it?”

“This bracelet has to be considered an item.”

Gongon clicked his tongue and said, “I wasn’t thinking…”

Junhyuk lay on his back comfortably and said, “We’ll fight with what we have. I need to be able to use all of the Harmonizer I have.”

“Right. I’m expecting great things from you.”

Gongon unwrapped another piece of candy and left. Junhyuk trained on his own. After a short time passed, Sarang and Elise came up to him.

“Let’s go back. It was fun, but we are fighting in the finals. We can return later.”

“I like that idea. Let’s go back.” Junhyuk smiled at Gongon and said, “Check to see if you can attach that ability to an equipment.”

“Sure.”

Gongon waved his claw at them, and Junhyuk returned to Elise’s office. After saying goodbye, he returned to his training facility. He didn’t want anybody interfering with him now.

However, it seemed that day wasn’t a good day to train. Time stopped, and Agenchra appeared.

The manager smiled at him and said, “You’ve achieved dimensional teleportation.”

“Aren’t you a little late?”

“You can teleport through dimensions on your own, but if you take others with you, there may be problems.”

“Why are you here?”

Agenchra pulled out his small notebook. There was a contract within it.

“I have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you.”

“What is it?”

“The chance to become a dimensional manager.” The manager started to explain, “With your teleportation skill, you are qualified to become a manager. I’m offering you a spot.”

“You want me to become a manager?! What’s so good about that?”

“I don’t have many powers, but as a manager, you can stop time and teleport through dimensions.”

“You have those powers.”

“They are a type of benefit.”

“Do I have to wear the bandages?”

“You’ve experienced it already.” Junhyuk didn’t understand what Agenchra was saying, so the manager raised his hand and pointed at him, adding, “You’ve gone beyond human limitations.”

“No. I’ll live as a human being.”

“You’ll be limited and uncomfortable.”

Junhyuk had two cores of energy within him. If he acquired any more energy, he would have to give up his humanity, so he decided to give up on absorbing any more.

“I’m human.”

Agenchra stared at him and said, “You really have a lot of energy within you. It’s surprising that you are still human.”

Junhyuk stared at Agenchra, and the manager smiled at him.

“You’ll get a lot of benefits. Why don’t you join?”

“What are the benefits?”

“You won’t die.”

“I won’t die?”

Agenchra smirked and replied, “I can’t die myself.”

“For how long have you been a manager?”

“That’s a secret, but I’m older than most dragons.”

Dragons could live for thousands of years, and Agenchra was telling him that he was older than them.

“You are old.”

“Age is just a number.”

“Any other benefits?”

“You can get items specific for managers.”

“Are they any good?”

“They are comparable to legendary items.”

Junhyuk wasn’t interested in the items. He wanted to compete in the battlefield.

“And?”

“No monster waves will trigger in a manager’s dimension if a manager doesn’t want them.”

That piqued his interest, and he asked, “Anything else?”

“Other, smaller benefits that won’t interest you.”

Junhyuk took some time to think before asking, “What will my ranking be as a manager?”

“You won’t be a team leader, but you’ll still be a manager.”

Junhyuk stared at Agenchra. Both him and ELtor were team leaders.

“Do powers decide ranking?”

“That’s part of it, but experience is more is more important.”

Was it because of experience, or was Eltor stronger than him? Junhyuk was curious to find out.

“What about it? Are you interested?”

Junhyuk shook his head and replied, “No. I’ll stay true to myself.” Looking into Agenchra’s eyes, he added, “I don’t want to work under supervision.”

Agenchra gave him a bitter smile and replied, “You’ll have plenty of freedom as a manager.”

“Considering Eltor’s situation, that’s hard to believe.”

“Eltor crossed the line.”

“What happened to him?” Junhyuk asked.

“He became a low-ranking manager.”

“Are the monster waves over?”

“Not yet. You don’t have enough heroes, so the waves will continue.”

“Just like last time?”

“The new team leader will trigger them, so I don’t know much about it.”

“When does the new team leader take his post?”

“Tomorrow.”

“OK. Tell me more about the new leader tomorrow.”

Agenchra smiled and said, “I’ll come back tomorrow and make you the offer again. There aren’t many managers, and only those with teleportation skills can become managers. You should seriously consider it.”

Agenchra disappeared, and Junhyuk scoffed and said, “I must be going crazy.”
