00:00The story begins in a dark dungeon filled with countless corpses, where a hero named

00:04Seo stands before a giant serpent monster with his bloodied sword, ready to bring it down.

00:09The serpent lunges at him with great speed and he barely manages to block the attack with his sword,

00:14coming out of the exchange unharmed. He soon gets an idea and tries jumping off the dungeon wall to

00:19strike the serpent with an amplified sword attack. But the serpent easily reads through the move and

00:24knocks him hard against the wall with one strong hit. Realizing how dangerous the fight has become,

00:29he decides that he needs to end things quickly. So he charges at the serpent head on with his sword,

00:34now charged with a bolt of lightning. Unfortunately, his sword shatters right in the middle of the attack

00:39and the serpent takes the chance to regain the upper hand. As the serpent sinks its teeth deep into him,

00:44he desperately stabs at it again and again with his dagger. But none of his effort seems to have

00:49any real effect on the creature. The serpent then slams him hard into the ground and begins to slowly

00:54swallow his body while he screams out in agony. With half his body already devoured,

00:58the serpent simply stares Seo down for a moment, preparing itself to take its final bite.

01:03Seo suddenly feels a surge of burning rage rise up inside him and declares that there is no way he

01:09is

01:09going to die like some kind of coward. He accepts that death is coming for him, but just before the

01:14serpent can finish him off completely, time abruptly freezes around him and he begins to hear a strange

01:19unknown voice calling out to him, mocking him and calling him a pathetic man. Seo hears the voice clearly

01:25and wonders where in the world it could be coming from. While the person behind the voice is genuinely

01:30shocked that Seo is somehow able to hear her at all. Seo explains that he has always been able to

01:35hear the

01:35voices of relics and says he can tell she must be some kind of divine object. So he asks her

01:41to destroy

01:41the serpent monster and get him out of that place. The voice only laughs at him in response and reminds

01:46him

01:47that half of his body has already been eaten away. So even if she did get rid of the serpent

01:51for him,

01:52there is simply no way he would manage to survive anyway. She tells him that he truly is a pitiful

01:57case, because even though he was born with unmatched talent, he happened to be born in the wrong era and

02:02suffered greatly for it. And now he is going to die without ever having gotten the chance to fully

02:07use his clever and brilliant tricks. Hearing all of this only fills Seo with even greater anger than

02:12before. He is not entirely sure exactly how he is going to do it, but he swears with everything in

02:18him

02:18that he will kill a man named Kwon Ti-Joon no matter what it takes or how long it takes

02:23him.

02:23Seeing the depth of his determination and sensing his hidden potential, the voice suddenly takes

02:28physical shape in the form of a crow and appears right before Seo, telling him that she has decided

02:33to grant him a second chance at life. She says she is eager and curious to see whether he will

02:38finally

02:38be able to claim the throne of the king this time around. The crow then sends a powerful surge of

02:43energy flowing directly into Seo. And after it courses through his entire body for a while,

02:48he suddenly finds himself sitting inside what looks like a public building. He is left completely in

02:53shock as he slowly realizes that his legs have somehow been fully restored to normal. What shocks

02:58him even more is the discovery that he is currently sitting inside a police station. With absolutely no

03:04memory of how he ended up getting there in the first place, a police officer nearby informs him that

03:09they are currently in the middle of an ongoing investigation and asks him for his name.

03:13Seo sits quietly, too consumed by his own thoughts and too busy wondering whether being alive again

03:19was somehow the doing of that mysterious divine crow. Then Seo happens to overhear one of the other

03:24officers casually talking about how they have just entered the very start of the year 2025.

03:29And that revelation leaves Seo completely stunned, because that year was exactly 15 years before his own

03:35current time, which slowly leads him to conclude that he has somehow been sent back 15 years into

03:40the past. A woman then comes over to scold him for not answering her questions. But Seo cannot help but

03:46feel that he has seen her somewhere before. He recalls that she is the mother of the brown-haired boy

03:50sitting nearby named Yu, and that they are in the police station because they had been caught in a

03:55fight that Yu had clearly tried to start with Seo. Seo then thinks back to how he settled this same

04:00problem 15 years ago, and recalls that he was asked to pay an extremely large amount in damages,

04:06and since he was completely broke at the time, he simply got down on his knees and apologized to them.

04:11Yu's mother realizes that Seo is not listening to a single word she is saying, so she tries to slap

04:16him.

04:17But Seo quickly catches her hand and raises his voice at her, telling her that it was her son who

04:22started

04:22the fight in the first place, and also pointing out that they are demanding far too much money in

04:27settlement fees. Yu does not like the way Seo is speaking to his mother, so he immediately throws

04:32a punch. But Seo easily ducks the punch and flips him onto the floor. This leaves Seo shocked for a

04:38moment as he realizes that his body feels a lot lighter than it should be. This makes him wonder

04:42whether all the combat skills he built up over the past 15 years are still intact inside this younger

04:48body. If that turns out to be true, he realizes that he got extremely lucky. Seo eventually gets thrown

04:54into a holding cell for being aggressive, and the sound of Yu's mother nagging nearby is starting

04:59to get on his nerves. Still, he knows none of this is going to matter much longer once the relics

05:04begin

05:04to arrive. In the year 2025, major earthquakes struck various parts of the earth, and several ancient

05:10tombs suddenly appeared. Relics featured in myths, legends, and old folktales were found among them.

05:16Stories that had been passed down for generations turned out to hold real power, and those who came to

05:21possess these relics were granted various supernatural abilities. Because of this,

05:25everyone set out in search of relics. Seo joined the search back then as well, and he eventually

05:30stumbled upon what was known as the archaeologist's relic. At the time, Seo felt that gaining the

05:35knowledge of the tomb and its relics would put an end to his miserable life and let him start a

05:40new one.

05:40But that was exactly when the real madness began. Starting with Mr. Kwon, the biggest chairman in the

05:45entire city. Many people who came into possession of relics took steps to make sure that no one

05:50but themselves could excavate any more of these relics. Fortunately, Seo's natural talent for

05:55finding relics was recognized, and he was scouted by Mr. Kwon himself. And from then on he ended up

06:00taking on every dirty job that Mr. Kwon threw his way, resigning himself to being known as the

06:05chairman's dog and enduring every insult that came along with it. Sitting inside the cell, Seo realizes

06:11that it is only a matter of time before the relics begin to appear again and everything around him

06:16fades into lawlessness. He figures it is a plus that he is now a lot stronger than before,

06:21but he also knows that strength alone is not going to be enough this time. He needs to raise capital

06:26for excavation as soon as possible, but he is not entirely sure how to go about it. A glowing line

06:31of text then suddenly appears in front of him, and Seo thinks at first that he might be losing his

06:36mind,

06:37but then he realizes that this has to be the work of a relic. He stands up and tries to

06:41summon the crow

06:42that brought him back to life, but instead a status screen appears in front of him and informs him

06:47that his new quest is to awaken the four talents of a tomb raider, and that catches him completely

06:51off guard. A guard walks past him and does not seem to notice the status screen at all, which tells

06:57Seo

06:57that he is the only one able to see it. Beyond that, he realizes that he is currently able to

07:02see objects

07:03within a radius of one meter around him, which was originally an ability tied to the archaeologist's

07:08relic, but since he no longer possesses that relic, he wonders why the ability still remains with him.

07:13Seo takes a closer look at his status screen and sees that he has already gained one out of the

07:18four

07:18talents, meaning he still has three more left to unlock. This leaves him with some relief since it

07:24means he already has a bit of a head start, but he still cannot help but wonder why the crow

07:28relic is

07:29doing all of this for him. Detective Kim then arrives to bail Seo out, and once they step outside,

07:34Kim tells Seo that he is really unlucky, since Yoo is apparently a repeat offender when it comes to

07:40baiting people into fights. As Kim laughs the whole thing off, Seo thinks quietly to himself and recalls

07:45that Detective Kim was the only person who ever stood by him back when he had absolutely nothing.

07:51They begin walking home together after that, and along the way, Seo asks Kim whether he has noticed any

07:56strange incidents lately. And judging by how confused Kim looks at the question, Seo can tell that relics do

08:02not yet exist in this version of the world. After they say their goodbyes, Seo walks off alone and

08:08realizes that this is exactly the point in time when tombs are just beginning to appear and there

08:13are still no relic users anywhere, which means now is his perfect chance to get ahead. He mentions that

08:18most of the early relics first appeared in Europe and the Americas. Still, Seo continues thinking of ways

08:24he can get his hands on some cash since he needs to buy plane tickets. As he turns down an

08:29alley,

08:29he runs straight into the gang he used to work for in his past life, and he smirks to himself,

08:34saying that he has just found his cash cow. Back in his past life, he had been so desperate for

08:39money

08:39that he ended up working for this very gang, and during that time he was treated worse than a dog.

08:44One of the gang members tried to slap Seo across the face, but Seo easily takes him down with one

08:50swift

08:50move. Seo then turns to speak to the rest of them, telling them that he is quitting and that all

08:55they need to

08:55do now is pay him the outstanding wages and severance pay that he is owed. But the gang refuses to

09:01back

09:01down and charges straight at Seo. Though Seo easily uses his martial arts skills to take them down one

09:07after another. The gang members are utterly shocked by Seo's abilities, since he had always been seen as

09:12hopeless when it came to fighting. After a while, Seo notices that his hands are starting to shake,

09:17so he decides to wrap things up quickly. At a certain point, the only person left standing is the gang

09:22boss,

09:23and desperate to take Seo down, he pulls out his special blade and gets ready to charge at him.

09:28Seo immediately spots the blade and can tell right away that it is a relic. He is not entirely sure

09:33why something like that already exists this early into the apocalypse, but he is certain of one thing,

09:39that it is going to be his for the taking. Seo snatches the blade from the gang boss and decides

09:43to show the rest of the gang what it can really do. The weapon gives him a huge boost in

09:48both speed

09:48and strength, allowing him to defeat the gang members in just a few seconds. After leaving

09:53several of them with stab wounds, the remaining members lose all their courage and just want to

09:58leave and go home. Meanwhile, at the Zhang Gallery, the woman in charge gets a call from her subordinate.

10:03He explains that Seo suddenly became incredibly strong, beat all of them, stole every yen in their

10:09account, and even took the Buddha statue. Furious, she calls him an idiot and orders him to get the

10:13statue back immediately. At the same time, Seo walks through town while carrying the Buddha statue,

10:19wondering what he should do with it. Earlier, he visited a pawn shop, but the broker told him

10:23the statue was basically worthless. Even so, Seo doesn't believe that. After seeing how desperate

10:28the gang boss, Arai, was to get it back, he's convinced it has to be valuable. Seo uses his appraisal

10:34skill and discovers that there's a strange substance hidden inside the statue. He uses the blade to

10:39carefully cut it open and finds a small bottle filled with a mysterious liquid. A wide grin

10:44spreads across his face as he realizes he really avoided making a huge mistake by not selling it to

10:50the pawn shop. Back at the gallery, Detective Kim arrives with Arai in handcuffs. He tells the CEO

10:55that the police received a report about illegal drugs being sold there. The woman immediately denies

11:00everything, insisting that they only deal in artwork. However, Detective Kim tells her to stop

11:05pretending because the police have already found the evidence inside their warehouse.

11:09She is shocked that the police even know the warehouse exists, but she quickly calms herself,

11:14believing there's nothing to worry about since every room inside is protected by a password.

11:19Just then, one of the officers speaks through Kim's walkie-talkie and reports that they searched

11:23every room in the warehouse and discovered large amounts of drugs. The woman is completely stunned.

11:28Every room was supposed to be locked behind a password, so she can't understand how the police got

11:33inside. Before she's taken away, Detective Kim holds his phone next to her ear. On the other end is Seo,

11:39who tells her it was pretty foolish not to change the passwords from time to time. The moment she

11:44hears his voice, she realizes it was Seo all along and angrily shouts his name as the officers escort her

11:50away. While walking home, Seo receives a message from Detective Kim, letting him know that the 10

11:55million yen reward for his tip will be sent to him soon. With his starting money finally secured,

12:00Seo decides it's time to head home, get some sleep, and prepare for tomorrow, because that's when the

12:05tomb hunt will finally begin. However, he's met with a huge surprise. A mysterious tomb has appeared

12:11right where his house used to stand. Seo carefully moves closer and overhears a CIA agent named Linda

12:17talking to someone. She says they're lucky that nobody has realized the strange structure is actually a

12:22tomb, which is why they planned to blow it open first thing tomorrow morning. A moment later,

12:26Linda suddenly runs into Kenshi, a member of the Japanese excavation team. Because of their past,

12:32she immediately calls him a thief. But Kenshi fires back, telling her not to act innocent because

12:37they both know exactly what they're really after. Seo quietly listens to their conversation and learns

12:42that they intend to use explosives to force their way into the tomb. Hearing that is enough for him

12:47to realize that there still aren't any real experts who understand how dangerous these tombs truly are.

12:52Seo sees this as good news because it means he's currently the most experienced person around.

12:58Suddenly, strange red markings begin spreading across the ground. Seo immediately recognizes them

13:03as tomb glyphs. These ancient writings contain important information about the tomb. Anyone who can

13:08read them can discover where the entrance is hidden and also learn the locations of dangerous traps

13:13before stepping inside. Seo carefully studies the glyphs and almost instantly his system activates.

13:18A notification appears, announcing that he has gained the linguistic skill. This new ability

13:23greatly improves his understanding of every language. Thanks to the skill, the strange symbols

13:28suddenly become easy to read. After examining the writings for a moment, Seo quickly figures out where

13:33the entrance is located. Without wasting any time, he activates the hidden entrance and slashes at it with

13:39his blade. The moment his attack lands, a massive explosion bursts into the sky, sending a powerful

13:44shockwave through the area. The loud blast immediately catches everyone's attention, including Linda's

13:50and Kenshi's. Both of them quickly turn toward the source of the explosion and realize something

13:54unbelievable is happening. The entrance to the tomb is opening all by itself. Afraid they'll miss their chance

14:00if it closes again, they sprint toward it as fast as they can before jumping inside. Meanwhile, Seo calmly

14:05continues deeper into the tomb. After walking for a while, he arrives at a mysterious pond that he instantly

14:11recognizes from his memories of the future. He already knows exactly what lies beneath the water.

14:16If a relic is dropped into the pond, it will awaken the serpent that has been sleeping there

14:20for countless years. Without any hesitation, Seo throws his blade into the water. The peaceful pond

14:26immediately begins to shake as large waves spread across its surface. Moments later, the giant serpent

14:31slowly rises from the water, opening its eyes after its long slumber. It welcomes its newest visitor

14:37before opening its enormous mouth. Inside are two high-grade relic weapons. The serpent asks Seo

14:42which of the weapons he lost. Seo already knows this is nothing more than a test. In the future,

14:48many greedy tomb raiders failed because they lied and claimed one of the valuable weapons belonged to

14:52them. The serpent would immediately punish anyone who answered dishonestly. Remembering that lesson,

14:58Seo calmly tells the truth and says that neither weapon belongs to him. The serpent is pleased by his

15:03honesty. It praises Seo before presenting him with his real blade instead. Everything appears to be

15:08going exactly as expected. Seo politely asks if he can take a closer look at his weapon. The serpent

15:13lowers its guard for just a brief moment. Instead of accepting the reward peacefully, he suddenly

15:18attacks. He grabs his blade and slashes the serpent without warning. The giant creature lets out a

15:23painful scream and asks him why he would attack after successfully passing the trial. Seo doesn't

15:29hesitate to answer. He explains that he doesn't trust relics at all. Just because someone passes

15:34a relics trial doesn't mean they'll receive a fair reward. There is always the possibility that the

15:39relic has other intentions. Seo even remembers hearing about another tomb raider who successfully

15:44completed a relics trial, only to be driven insane afterward and turned into a serial killer.

15:49After hearing stories like that, Seo has no intention of taking unnecessary risks. If there's even the

15:55slightest chance the serpent could betray him, he'd rather eliminate the threat now. The serpent becomes

15:59furious and charges straight toward him. Seo reacts immediately by jumping high into the air before

16:05driving his blade deep into the serpent's body. Another painful roar echoes throughout the chamber.

16:10Even after suffering such a heavy wound, the serpent refuses to fall. Knowing ordinary attacks won't be

16:15enough, Seo activates his dominance technique. A powerful surge of energy flows from his body directly

16:21into the serpent. The creature screams once again as the technique begins forcing its will into

16:26submission. Dominance is a special ability that allows its user to force a relic into obeying commands.

16:32It stands in complete opposition to affinity, which allows someone to control a relic by building trust

16:37with it instead. However, neither of those methods is considered perfect. The ideal relationship between

16:43a relic and its owner is known as compatibility, where both sides naturally understand each other and fight

16:49together as one. It's often compared to the connection between a skilled musician and their

16:53favorite instrument. Even with dominance continuously affecting it, the serpent stubbornly refuses to

16:58surrender. It continues struggling with all of its strength, trying to resist Seo's control.

17:03Seeing that it still refuses to submit, Seo decides to put everything into one final attack.

17:08He pours even more power into his dominance technique while channeling it directly through his blade.

17:13The energy tears through the serpent's body, causing it to cry out again and again.

17:17The battle continues for several more moments before the creature finally reaches its limit.

17:22Seo's dominance technique eventually succeeds in completely exercising the serpent.

17:26With the trial finished on his own terms, Seo officially claims the serpent as his newest relic.

17:32As a reward, he receives a gold axe and a silver axe. A system notification immediately appears,

17:38showing that his overall stats have increased once again. Seo takes a few moments to look over

17:42the improvements, satisfied with the results of his gamble.

17:45Not long afterward, Linda and Kenshi finally reach the pond, believing they know how the trial works.

17:51They copy the same method by dropping a relic into the water. However, nothing happens. The pond remains

17:57completely still. Both of them stare at the water in confusion, unable to understand why the trial

18:02isn't beginning. Neither of them realizes that Seo has already completed it and claimed the relic for

18:07himself. Before they can investigate any further, the entire cave suddenly begins shaking violently.

18:12Large cracks spread across the walls as huge pieces of rock start falling from the ceiling,

18:18realizing the tomb is collapsing. Linda and Kenshi immediately abandon the trial and run toward the

18:23exit as fast as they can, barely escaping before the passage is completely sealed. Elsewhere,

18:28back at the gallery, the remaining gang members are still furious. Their boss has been arrested,

18:33their drugs have been seized, and everything they worked for has fallen apart because of Seo. One gang

18:38member named Naburu clenches his fists and swears that he'll make Seo pay for everything he's done.

18:44Just then, his phone rings, and he's shocked to see the caller is Seo himself. The moment Naburu answers,

18:50Seo tells him to forget the greetings and get straight to business. He wants Naburu to gather the rest of

18:55the

18:55gang because he has a job for all of them. Seo explains that his next target is Mita's, the world's

19:00largest secret auction house located in Las Vegas. He believes the auction house holds valuable information

19:06that could help him prepare for future events. If he can gain access to it, he'll have a major

19:11advantage over everyone else. He orders Naburu and his men to attend this month's auction,

19:16purchase a few specific items, and keep watch for a man named Jack Kamen, better known as JK.

19:21However, Seo quietly thinks to himself that Jack Kamen isn't actually Ogawara's real alias.

19:27Naburu quickly points out that getting into Midas is almost impossible. Only extremely wealthy and

19:33influential people are allowed inside. Seo simply tells him not to worry about the expenses. He

19:38promises to pay them well for completing the job. Then, with a calm voice, he reminds them that

19:43refusing isn't really an option. They can either accept the mission or let him beat them up all over

19:48again. Remembering how badly Seo defeated them before, Naburu and the others instantly decide that

19:54taking the job is the much better choice. The following day, Seo prepares to continue hunting relics.

19:59Before leaving home, he glances across the street and notices a news broadcast

20:04playing on a large television. The news reporter announces that a fourth unexplained murder has

20:09taken place. According to the report, the suspect attempted to commit suicide by setting themselves

20:14on fire. Hearing that, Seo immediately realizes everything is unfolding exactly the same way it did

20:20before the tombs first appeared in the future. The timeline hasn't changed as much as he hoped.

20:25As Seo continues walking, he accidentally bumps into Kenshi, who immediately recognizes him.

20:30Seeing Kenshi here tells Seo something important. If Kenshi has appeared in this location,

20:35then another tomb is almost certainly about to reveal itself. Seo also notices that Kenshi is

20:40carrying a relic. However, it's obvious that he's still inexperienced because he isn't even trying to

20:45hide the relic's aura. Anyone with enough experience could easily notice it. Kenshi is still angrily

20:50shouting at Seo for bumping into him when the ground suddenly begins to shake beneath their feet.

20:55Seo immediately understands that another tomb is manifesting. Without saying another word,

21:00he immediately runs toward the source of the disturbance, determined to reach it before anyone

21:04else. At almost the same moment, Kenshi's phone begins ringing. Expecting a normal update,

21:09he answers without thinking much about it. Instead, his associate delivers shocking news.

21:14The Korean man carrying the golden and silver axe has been spotted nearby. The instant Kenshi

21:19hears those words, everything suddenly makes sense. He finally realizes that Seo has been the

21:24mysterious man from the prophecy all along. After the tomb finally emerges, Seo and the others

21:30wake up inside mysterious tomb. As Seo looks around, he immediately notices something strange.

21:35There are several broken swords scattered around the area, with many of them stuck directly into the

21:40ground. The sight of all these broken weapons makes Seo realize that the relic hidden inside this tomb

21:45must be incredibly powerful. He then takes a closer look at the weapons, and suddenly recognizes

21:50their craftsmanship. He realizes that the swords were created by the Muramasa, a famous and ancient

21:55family of swordsmiths. The Muramasa family is well known for creating extremely powerful weapons,

22:01and their swords are considered national treasures because of their incredible sharpness. Their weapons

22:06are so famous that even after all this time, people still recognize them by their unique craftsmanship.

22:11Because of this, Seo assumes that the broken swords covering the floor must have been created by the

22:16Muramasa clan. He also believes that the tomb itself must be heavily connected to the Muramasa family

22:21and their weapons. If so many of their swords are inside this place, then the relic hidden here

22:26could be connected to them as well. However, before Seo can investigate the tomb any further,

22:31his system suddenly appears in front of him with an important warning. It informs him that the tomb's

22:36vicious aura has started attacking his body. Seo immediately becomes concerned and pulls up his

22:41sleeve to inspect his arm, and he notices that his skin is beginning to burn. Realizing how dangerous

22:47the situation is, Seo knows that he needs to find the relic and escape the tomb as quickly as possible.

22:53Unfortunately, things don't go as smoothly as he hoped. Seo continues exploring the tomb,

22:58expecting to find the relic fairly quickly. However, the tomb turns out to be much larger than he

23:03originally thought. He keeps moving through one area after another, but there seems to be no sign

23:08of the relic anywhere. To make matters worse, even the golden axe is unable to locate the relic.

23:13Seo becomes increasingly frustrated as he realizes that his usual method of finding hidden treasures

23:19isn't working this time. Seo then starts thinking about Kenshi. He remembers that Kenshi had been

23:24following him earlier, and he begins to wonder if Kenshi might actually know something about the tomb.

23:28Seo then spots a group of people trapped inside a pit. But what catches his attention the most is a

23:34high school girl who is going completely berserk because she has been poisoned by a relic. Anyone who

23:39gets cut by the blade of that relic would end up in the same condition as the girl. Seo calls

23:44out to

23:44the others inside the pit and asks them who pushed them down there. After Seo learns that it was Kenshi,

23:50he realizes that Kenshi offered them as sacrifices so that the sacred bridge would appear. After that,

23:55Seo pulls out the artifact he stole from Kenshi and realizes that it is actually a special relic

24:00that belongs to the Sun and Moon siblings. His system then lights up and informs him that he

24:05has awakened four new skills. Seo immediately decides to put his new skills to the test by jumping into

24:11the pit and fighting against the possessed girl. After a tough battle, he manages to tie her up using

24:16his relic rope and successfully frees her from the curse. After that, Seo asks the other civilians where

24:21Kenshi is and one of them speaks up and tells him that Kenshi was last seen crossing the bridge and

24:27heading deeper inside. Seo hears this and figures that Kenshi must have gotten that information from

24:32the user of the prophecy relic. Putting that aside, the girl who was possessed asks Seo to remove the

24:37relic rope from her, so he immediately retracts it and sets her free. Meanwhile, Kenshi is seen walking

24:43across the bridge while talking to one of his colleagues on the phone. When he finally reaches the pit,

24:47he assumes that the people he pushed inside have already been sacrificed. So, he slides down into

24:53the pit and begins searching for the relic. However, after searching for a while, Kenshi starts

24:57getting frustrated because all he can see are a bunch of broken swords and he still can't find

25:02the Miramasa. But just when he starts to lose his patience, the same group of people he pushed into the

25:08pit suddenly comes out of nowhere and charges at him. They immediately surround Kenshi and begin beating

25:13him up. While they are beating him down, Kenshi looks behind them and sees Seo standing there

25:18by himself. He immediately realizes that Seo must be the one behind all of this. Seo then mocks Kenshi

25:24by calling him terrible at his job because he already had a head start. Yet he still wasn't able to

25:29find

25:29the relic. With that out of the way, Seo uses his golden axe to locate the Miramasa blade. Once he

25:35finds

25:35its location, he uses his power to make the blade fly straight into his hands. The Miramasa blade then

25:41acknowledges Seo as its new wielder. However, it warns him that if he wants to fully take control

25:46of it and unleash its true power, he will need to kill 10 humans first because the sword requires

25:51human blood to activate its full abilities. But Seo refuses to kill innocent people just to gain more

25:57power. Instead, he uses his dominance skill to force the Miramasa sword to obey his commands

26:02and submit to him. The Miramasa resists Seo's control for a while, but Seo eventually manages to

26:08overpower it and tame it. The sword then begins glowing with a blue aura, leaving Kenshi in

26:13complete disbelief at what he has just witnessed. After that, the civilians begin making their way

26:18out of the pit. Seo then notices Kenshi trying to sneak away. So he walks up to him, taps him

26:23on

26:23the shoulder, and lets him know that he isn't fooling anyone. Kenshi immediately starts begging Seo to

26:28just let him out of the pit. He even promises to give Seo all kinds of things if he helps

26:33him escape.

26:33But Seo isn't interested in anything Kenshi has to offer. Instead, he simply drives his knee into

26:38Kenshi's stomach before climbing out of the pit himself. As Seo leaves, he orders the tomb to close.

26:44It follows his instructions, causing several huge boulders to fall down and crush Kenshi inside.

26:49Meanwhile, the Japanese parliament is watching the news, and the chairman becomes extremely angry

26:54because all anyone can talk about is the tombs and the relics. He is especially furious with Mori,

26:59the head of the excavation team, because Mori had already assured him that he would take care of

27:04everything. Mori then assures the chairman that things are different now, and because Seo has

27:08become their biggest problem, he promises that he will personally eliminate him. Meanwhile,

27:13inside a bathroom, Seo takes a look at his scarred arm and quickly realizes that the injury is the

27:18result of using his dominance skill. Whenever he uses the skill to take control of a relic,

27:23the relic resets, but the process also causes damage to his own body. The stronger the relic is,

27:28the more damage Seo's body receives. Because of this, Seo realizes that he won't be able to

27:33survive for long if he continues using his dominance skill this way. Seo continues complaining

27:39about his injuries for a while before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a small, pill-shaped

27:44relic. He decides to eat it, and the moment he does, he is shocked to see that all the burn

27:48marks

27:49on his body have completely disappeared. On top of that, he also gains a new ability called Tolerance.

27:54As Seo lies in bed, he soon realizes that the Tolerance skill gives him the ability to neutralize

28:00poison. This makes him think back to the crow that sent him here, and he starts wondering why

28:04the crow would intentionally try to make his life in this world much easier. Seo's system then suddenly

28:09informs him that an S-grade relic is currently watching him. Seo begins to wonder if it could be

28:15the Book of Prophecies, an ancient treasure from Japan. Unlike normal relics, the Book of Prophecies

28:20doesn't create tombs. Instead, it chooses its owner by itself, and the person it chose was a

28:25girl named Yuka. The Japanese government soon learned about the book and offered Yuka a generous

28:30deal to allow them to use the Book of Prophecies for their excavation operations. Things went smoothly

28:35for a while, but Yuka was never really the studying type, and she always struggled to understand the

28:40book's ancient language. Then, one day, a strange prophecy suddenly appeared, and it was clear that

28:45things didn't end well for Yuka. Now, in the present, it is finally time for Yuka to read the

28:50Book of Prophecies again. However, she is shocked when the book suddenly gives her a prophecy that

28:55she is going to die. However, this entire situation is actually part of Seo's plan. He's now in Japan,

29:01sitting inside a restaurant and casually eating sushi while waiting for the Japanese agents to break in.

29:07He knows that they must believe he is there to kill Yuka. The agents then tell Yuka to play along,

29:12serve Seo like a normal customer, and look him directly in the eyes so the Book of Prophecies

29:16can fully mark him. They also instruct her to signal them if anything unusual happens.

29:21Yuka walks into the restaurant and immediately falls in love with Seo because she thinks he is

29:26incredibly handsome. When Seo suddenly reaches for his sword, the agents outside immediately get ready

29:31to attack. But before they can do anything, Yuka suddenly closes the door, preventing the agents

29:36from entering. Yuka then begins flirting with Seo through text messages because the two of them

29:41don't speak the same language. Seo admits that Yuka has a very attractive energy, so he decides to

29:46play along with her flirting. Meanwhile, the agents continue waiting outside, completely unaware of

29:52what Seo is planning. Suddenly, an explosion erupts from inside the restaurant. When the smoke clears,

29:57the agents find themselves tied up by Seo's relic rope. Seo then casually walks out of the restaurant

30:02with Yuka by his side. With the agents left tied up behind them, Seo turns to Yuka and asks her

30:08where

30:08she wants to go for their first date. Seo and Yuka step out into the streets, and Seo tells her

30:13how

30:14crazy it is that those soldiers were actually planning to send her to the front lines. Yuka agrees

30:19and says it was really annoying how they were always watching her everywhere she went. Seo simply pats

30:24her on the head and suggests that maybe they should cause a little trouble for those jerks. As they

30:29continue walking together, Yuka starts to realize that Seo isn't the evil person everyone made him out to be.

30:34From everything she's seen so far, someone like him would never actually hurt her. Since she

30:39believes Seo doesn't know who she really is, she figures she can secretly read his future now that

30:44they've finally met. However, she suddenly remembers that she left the Book of Prophecies back at home.

30:49After they arrive at a quiet area with nobody around, Seo suddenly places his sword against Yuka's

30:55throat. He then crushes her phone under his foot before calmly telling her that he already knows

30:59she's the one who possesses the Book of Prophecies. Hearing that leaves Yuka terrified,

31:04she starts panicking inside as she realizes that Seo has known her true identity all along.

31:09A little while later, the two of them sit down at a nearby bar. Seo places a notebook on the

31:14table

31:14and tells Yuka to write down every single prophecy she sees in the Book of Prophecies. Yuka tries to

31:20explain that she can't do that because she left the book at home. However, Seo immediately brushes

31:25that excuse aside. He tells her to simply touch the tattoo on her body and say the words,

31:29Book of Prophecies and the relic will appear. Yuka does exactly as Seo tells her and she's

31:35shocked when the Book of Prophecies suddenly appears right in front of her. Seo then tells

31:39her to start writing down every prophecy she can find. He warns her not to leave out a single one

31:44because every prophecy could end up being important. Yuka spends a long time writing everything down,

31:49filling page after page with prophecies from the book. After writing for quite a while,

31:54she finally puts the pen down and tells Seo that she can't keep going because her hand hurts too much.

31:59She even offers to hand the Book of Prophecies over to him instead and asks if he'll just let her

32:04leave. However, Seo immediately refuses. He tells her that if taking the Book of Prophecies were that

32:10simple, he would have done it himself a long time ago. The book is a legendary S-grade relic,

32:14and trying to force it under his control with his dominance ability would come with an enormous penalty.

32:19Seo realizes the Miramasa was only a low-grade relic, yet forcing it to obey him almost burned his

32:25entire hand off. Compared to that, the Book of Prophecies is on a completely different level.

32:30If he tried using dominance on an S-grade relic like this one, he's certain the backlash would

32:35probably be strong enough to kill him on the spot. Then, after a little while, Seo stands up and pulls

32:40out his sword. Yuka immediately assumes that he's about to kill her, so she desperately starts trying

32:45to convince him how useful she can be. She tells him that she can help him with the Book of

32:49Prophecies and that keeping her alive would benefit him far more than getting rid of her.

32:54However, Seo tells her that she's got it all wrong. Without saying another word,

32:58he swings his sword and destroys the Book of Prophecies, causing a small explosion.

33:02The moment the relic is destroyed, Yuka suddenly loses consciousness. As she collapses,

33:07Seo quietly says that he's doing all of this for her own sake.

33:10Just then, Seo's system lights up and informs him that he's earned a huge number of additional points.

33:16Before he can think much about it, a group of soldiers suddenly barges into the building,

33:20searching for the Book of Prophecies. However, Seo calmly tells them that they're too late.

33:25He simply points at the destroyed relic and shows them that the book has already been reduced to

33:29pieces. The soldiers immediately lose their temper and prepare to open fire on Seo. However, Seo casually

33:35tosses a gelatin relic into Mori's hand. The relic instantly releases the scent of each person's

33:41favorite food, placing everyone who smells it into a trance-like state. Every single soldier

33:45catches the aroma. Moments later, they all begin fighting each other over an imaginary bowl of rice

33:51cakes. While they're completely distracted, Seo quietly slips away. By the time the soldiers come

33:56back to their senses, Seo is already on a flight to Las Vegas. During the flight, Seo thinks back to

34:01the

34:02incident known as the Great Tombification. Long ago, the entire world was swallowed by a colossal tomb.

34:07That event was what led to relics spreading across the world in the first place. Seo also remembers

34:12hearing about the legendary Underground Garden of Greed, and he's convinced that it refers to the

34:17Medus auction being held in Las Vegas. Not long after, Seo arrives in Las Vegas and meets up with

34:23his partner. Together, they begin looking over the list of participants expected to attend the auction.

34:28The person Seo has been searching for is a man named Ogawara Teize, and he's almost certain that Ogawara

34:34will be attending. Seo then looks through the list of relics that will be auctioned off. However,

34:39he's shocked when he realizes that not a single one of them is a god-grade relic. That immediately

34:43leaves him confused because the prophecy clearly suggested something much more valuable would

34:48appear. Even so, Seo decides that he's still going to participate in the auction. His associate

34:53quickly reminds him that the bidding starts at 1 billion, and Seo obviously doesn't have that kind

34:58of money. Seo already knows that, but he simply reminds Noboru that they're in Las Vegas. As far

35:03as he's concerned, there's still plenty of money waiting to be made before the auction begins.

35:08At the same time, a mysterious businessman receives a phone call informing him that Seo single-handedly

35:13destroyed the Book of Prophecies. The caller asks whether they should hunt Seo down and eliminate

35:18him for what he did. However, the businessman immediately rejects the idea. Instead of killing Seo,

35:23he wants to recruit him. He believes Seo could become an extremely valuable ally if they manage

35:29to get him on their side. Meanwhile, Seo is already inside one of the casinos. Before long,

35:34he draws a huge crowd after winning several jackpots in a row. His unbelievable winning streak

35:39quickly catches the attention of the casino staff, who become suspicious that he might be cheating.

35:44The casino officials stop Seo and thoroughly inspect him, checking all of his belongings for anything

35:49suspicious. However, the only unusual item they find is a simple keychain. What they don't realize

35:54is that the keychain is actually Seo's golden axe. Disguised in the form of a keychain, Seo has been

36:00secretly using its ability to attract wealth, allowing him to hit jackpot after jackpot without

36:05raising too much suspicion. Just then, the mysterious businessman from earlier suddenly walks into the

36:11casino. The moment Seo sees him, he immediately recognizes him as Takuya. Seo knows that if someone like

36:17Takuya has shown up in person. Then something major is about to happen. A short while later,

36:21Seo finally spots Tijun, his former boss. The moment their eyes meet, Seo's expression becomes serious

36:27as he stares him down. However, Tijun simply walks right past him because the two of them haven't

36:33officially met yet. Seo can't help but grin to himself. He's convinced that before the night is over,

36:38he'll walk away with every valuable relic worth having. But just then, Noboru suddenly alerts him

36:43that the bag he's carrying is shaking violently. Seo quickly opens it and sees the silver axe frantically

36:49vibrating in panic. Seo immediately understands what's happening. The silver axe only reacts like

36:55this when enemies nearby are targeting someone's wealth. That means there are dangerous people

36:59somewhere close by with their sights already set on him. Seo quickly looks around the casino,

37:04trying to figure out where the threat is coming from. That's when he notices that people all over

37:09the casino are suddenly starting to panic for completely different reasons. Seeing everyone's

37:13strange reactions, Seo is left wondering what exactly is going on. Just then, a beautiful blonde

37:19girl walks into the room, and the moment Seo sees her, he immediately recognizes her as Irene,

37:24the daughter of the Hilton family. In his previous life, Irene was one of the few people who possessed

37:29an incredibly terrifying power. She was known as the Queen of Bankruptcy because anyone who stayed

37:34close to her would eventually be struck by terrible misfortune. Remembering that, Seo knows the

37:39smartest thing he can do is stay as far away from her as possible. Seo immediately turns around and

37:45tries to leave, but Irene notices him right away and starts walking straight toward him. Seo quickens his

37:50pace, hoping to get out before she catches up. However, the moment he reaches for the door handle,

37:55it suddenly shocks him. At the same time, his system appears and informs him that an ominous

38:00presence is coming from the door. Before Seo can react, Irene catches up to him and grabs his arm.

38:05She politely tells him that she wants to ask him for a favor. The instant she touches him,

38:10Seo watches his stats begin dropping at an alarming rate because of Irene's terrible luck. Seo quickly

38:15shakes her hand off and asks what she wants. Irene asks Seo if he's the person who has been winning

38:21several jackpots in a row. She says she's been watching him and wants to know the secret behind his

38:26incredible luck. Seo immediately denies knowing anything about that. However, before he can say

38:31anything else, his subordinates suddenly jumps into the conversation. They tell Seo not to waste

38:36such a perfect opportunity to talk to a beautiful girl. Seung Woo immediately walks over and tries to

38:42ask Irene for her number. The moment he does, Irene's bad luck activates. Within seconds, everyone around

38:48them is suddenly struck by a mysterious plague. Seo immediately tries to run away before the bad luck

38:53reaches him too, but he runs straight into the locked door. Seeing him trapped,

38:57Irene walks over and apologizes. She explains that she already knows everyone who gets close to her

39:03eventually runs into terrible luck. That's exactly why she wanted to know Seo's secret. She hopes that if

39:08she can learn it, maybe she can finally become someone who brings happiness to people instead of misfortune.

39:13Seo looks into Irene's innocent eyes and can't believe she's the same person he knew in his previous life.

39:19Back then, she was cruel, heartless, and feared by everyone. The gentle girl standing in front of him

39:24now couldn't be more different. Just then, Seo's system suddenly appears again. It informs him that

39:30his tolerance skill has activated, reducing the effects of enemy relics by half. Seo immediately

39:35realizes that this is the same skill he gained after eating the pill-shaped relic earlier. The moment

39:41he understands how it works, a slight smile appears on his face. He no longer has to avoid Irene because

39:46her bad luck doesn't affect him nearly as much anymore. In fact, Seo realizes that staying

39:51close to Irene might actually work in his favor. Her bad luck will reduce the luck of everyone else

39:57around them, giving him an even bigger advantage. With that in mind, Seo asks Irene to come with him

40:02to the auction hall. By the time they arrive, Seo notices that nearly two-thirds of the audience

40:07has already disappeared because they couldn't handle Irene's terrible luck. He even hears that Tijun's

40:12company suddenly caught on fire. Even so, Tijun is still attending the auction, which tells Seo that

40:18the relics being sold today must be far more valuable than anything happening outside.

40:22While waiting for the auction to begin, Seo thinks about how kind Irene truly is. He realizes that the

40:28only reason she eventually became the feared queen of bankruptcy in his previous life was because

40:33her relic completely ruined her life and slowly twisted her personality into something cruel.

40:38A moment later, Irene thanks Seo for agreeing to show her around the casino. Seo simply smiles

40:43and tells her it's no problem at all. Hearing those kind words makes Irene genuinely happy.

40:49The instant her mood improves, the ground suddenly begins to shake. Seo's system immediately warns him

40:54that the happier Irene becomes, the stronger her relic's power grows, causing even greater misfortune

41:00for everyone around her. The earthquake continues for several moments before finally coming to a stop

41:05once Irene calms down again. Seo gently tells Irene not to blame herself for her bad luck. He says that

41:11one day she might even become someone who brings happiness to the people around her instead of

41:15suffering. Seo continues talking with Irene for quite some time, making it sound as though solving

41:20her problem will be easy. By the time the auction officially begins, almost every participant has

41:25completely lost their mind because of the overwhelming bad luck. People begin fighting over nearly every

41:31relic that appears on stage, driving the prices higher and higher. However, Tijun's dominance ability

41:36proves to be incredibly powerful. He remains mostly unaffected by Irene's relic and manages to win

41:42several important bids. Whenever Tijun shows interest in what appears to be a worthless junk relic,

41:48Seo immediately raises the bidding price on purpose. He knows Tijun wouldn't waste money on something,

41:53unless it had hidden value. After a while, Seo manages to cross several valuable relics off his list.

41:59Even so, the god-grade relic mentioned in the prophecy still hasn't appeared, leaving him

42:03wondering if the prophecy was somehow wrong. But then, everything changes. The auctioneer suddenly

42:09announces a special relic called the mysterious almond tree sapling. The moment Seo hears those words,

42:14his eyes go wide with shock. He immediately realizes that the so-called almond tree sapling

42:19is actually the legendary tree of eternal life. Seo raises his hand to place a bid, and Tijun

42:25immediately raises his own to match it. That alone is enough to convince Seo that Tijun

42:29probably knows what the tree of life really is. Long ago, a legendary monarch who ruled the ancient

42:35kingdom of Dahlia became obsessed with gaining immortality. He spent years searching for the

42:40tree of life, hoping it would let him live forever. Before Seo traveled back in time,

42:44relic poison had completely destroyed his body. The only thing keeping him alive was the fruit of the tree

42:49of life. But the fruit was in Tijun's possession, which was why Seo had no choice but to do all

42:54of

42:55his dirty work just to survive. Now that he's been given a second chance, Seo knows he can't

42:59let Tijun obtain the tree of life again. If he does, he'll be forced to face that same miserable future

43:05all over again. Seo's expression immediately changes when the auctioneer announces that the

43:10tree of life is widely known as nothing more than a drug that improves male potency. The crowd

43:15instantly becomes excited after hearing that. Taking advantage of the atmosphere, the auctioneer

43:20starts the bidding at $200,000. Without wasting a single second, Tijun shocks everyone by placing

43:26a bid of $10 million. The entire room falls silent for a moment after hearing such an outrageous number.

43:32Even Seo starts sweating a little. As more wealthy bidders decide to join in, the price keeps climbing

43:37higher and higher until the current bid eventually reaches $50 million. Seo begins shaking after hearing

43:43numbers that high because he never imagined the bidding would reach that point. Then without any

43:48hesitation, Tijun raises the price once again and bids $100 million. After a brief moment of silence,

43:54none of the other bidders respond. Seeing that no one is speaking up, the auctioneer prepares to close

43:59the auction and sell the tree of life to Tijun for $100 million. Just before the hammer comes down,

44:05Seo quietly signals Irene. She calmly raises her hand and places a new bid of $150 million. The entire

44:12room is left speechless. Even Tijun is caught completely off guard because no one expected

44:17a random bidder to suddenly increase the price by that much. Refusing to give up, Tijun desperately

44:22raises the bid to $160 million. What follows is a fierce bidding war between him and Irene as the

44:29price continues climbing higher and higher. Finally, Irene raises the bid to an unbelievable $300 million.

44:36Just as Tijun is about to make another offer, his assistant quickly stops him. He explains that the

44:40woman bidding against him is Irene, the youngest daughter of the Holton family. When it comes to

44:45money, there's simply no way he can compete with her. Tijun doesn't care and is prepared to risk

44:50his entire fortune just to win the tree of life. Even so, his assistant physically restrains him

44:55from making another bid, leaving Irene as the winner of the auction. After the auction ends,

45:00one of the attendants tells Irene that they'll begin preparing the tree of life for her. Seo sincerely

45:05thanks Irene for helping him win the auction, although he admits he feels a little guilty

45:09about how much money she had to spend. Irene simply says she doesn't mind. If buying the tree of life

45:15can solve her problem, then the money doesn't matter to her at all. She then asks Seo if he's found

45:20anything that can remove her terrible luck, maybe a special talisman or some kind of relic. Seo tells

45:25her that the real solution is to get rid of the strange item that's been following her around this

45:30whole time. Deep down, Seo already knows exactly what that object is. All Irene has to do is throw

45:36away the relic of bankruptcy and her bad luck will disappear along with it. Solving her problem also

45:41benefits him because he'll be able to claim the relic for himself. In the end, it's the perfect

45:46outcome since it lets him kill two birds with one stone. Seo is left completely shocked when Irene

45:51tells him that nothing has been following her around. Thinking for a moment, he asks her a different

45:56question. He wants to know if any strange tattoo has suddenly appeared somewhere on her body.

46:01The moment Seo sees Irene's reaction, he realizes he was right. That kind of tattoo is a clear sign

46:06of a bound relic. Seo immediately remembers the tattoo on Yuka's arm. That mark was proof of the

46:12contract that made her the owner of the future guide. Unlike consumable relics, bound relics can

46:17only be used by the person they are attached to. No one else can use their power. Irene then shows

46:22Seo several pictures of the strange tattoo. The moment he sees them, he immediately recognizes

46:27what they are. Those markings belong to a parasite relic, an extremely rare type of relic that infects

46:33its owner and becomes part of their body. Realizing that, Seo understands that taking the relic away

46:37from Irene won't be nearly as easy as he first thought. Instead of forcing the issue, Seo tells Irene

46:43they should take their time and search for another solution. He gives her his phone number and promises

46:48that he isn't going to disappear or abandon her halfway through. Irene is relieved to hear that

46:53and happily accepts, deep down. However, Seo has a completely different reason for staying close to

46:58her. If he can't steal the relic's power for himself, then the next best option is to keep the relic

47:04and its owner as close to him as possible. Putting that matter aside, one of the attendants arrives

47:09carrying the Tree of Life, along with all of the other items that were included in the winning bid.

47:13The attendant asks if Seo would like some help carrying everything outside, but Seo politely

47:18refuses and confidently says he already has someone to help him. Seo calls Arai over, expecting him to

47:24answer immediately. But after calling several times, nobody responds. At that moment, Seo already knows

47:30exactly what's happening. The scene then shifts to Arai and his group as they run through the streets

47:35carrying several duffel bags stuffed with Seo's money. Their plan is simple, they're going to leave town

47:40before Seo realizes what happened because they believe he'll never be able to track them down

47:45afterward. Just as they think they've escaped, a silver axe suddenly comes flying straight toward

47:50Arai's face. It misses him by only a few inches before burying itself nearby. Arai freezes in shock

47:56as Seo calmly steps out of the shadows and demands to know how they dared to steal his money. Arai

48:01can't

48:02understand how Seo managed to find them so quickly. Seo casually explains that the silver axe itself

48:07led him straight to their location. Now that he's found them, he promises to make every one of them

48:12pay for betraying him. Seo then pulls out a strange pumice stone and activates its power. The relic

48:18instantly summons a gigantic stone pillar behind him. He explains that it's an ancient relic famous

48:23for countering enemy attacks, and he just won it during today's auction. Since he only got it a short

48:28while ago, this is the perfect chance to test out what it can really do. According to Seo, the relic

48:33doesn't just reflect attacks. It can also detect a person's future actions and punish them before

48:38they even carry them out. The moment he activates its ability, Arai and every member of his crew

48:43suddenly find heavy cuffs wrapped tightly around their wrists. These are the cuffs of betrayal. After

48:48a few seconds, the cuffs mysteriously disappear, leaving Arai and the others completely confused.

48:54Seo then explains that they're now bound by Hammurabi's code. As long as they remain loyal,

48:59nothing at all will happen to them. But the moment they even think about betraying him again,

49:03their bodies will immediately be torn to pieces. Hearing that, Arai and his two lackeys quickly

49:08apologize and promise it won't happen again. Seo then takes them to his house and tells them that

49:13their job is to pick the fruit from the tree of life, without wasting any time. The three of them

49:18get to work. At first, the relic complains, but after a while she starts enjoying it because their

49:23hands are so gentle. Seo is surprised by this and figures they must have a very high affinity with the

49:29relic. He remembers trying to bind the tree of life himself the previous night, but he completely

49:33failed. Just then, Seo gets a call from a familiar number. It turns out to be Tijun. Tijun gets straight

49:39to the point and says he wants to talk about the tree of life that Seo now has. But Seo

49:44immediately

49:44shuts him down, saying he has nothing to discuss before hanging up. The call leaves Tijun slightly annoyed.

49:50His assistant then walks over and tells him not to worry. He says that if Tijun gives him access to

49:55the company's relics, he'll be able to take the tree of life back without much trouble.

49:59Later that night, Seo sits alone at a bar and thinks back to a few days earlier when the silver

50:04axe gave him a warning. That warning meant Tijun had started tracking him. But so far Seo hasn't

50:10seen any sign of him. A moment later, Tijun's assistant, Takuya, walks into the bar. Seeing him,

50:15Seo realizes they must really be looking down on him if they only sent Takuya. Takuya calls out to Seo,

50:21but Seo completely ignores him. After Takuya keeps calling his name for a while,

50:25Seo suddenly turns around and drives his elbow into Takuya's stomach, knocking him to the ground.

50:31The attack makes Takuya furious. Seo's system immediately tells him that Takuya has completely

50:36lost his composure, causing his dominance to weaken. This was exactly what Seo wanted. He knew

50:41Takuya's relic ability depends heavily on staying calm and keeping his dominance. Now that his composure is

50:47gone, he temporarily loses the ability to use relics. Seo keeps mocking him, making Takuya even angrier.

50:53Unable to control himself, Takuya charges straight at Seo and tries to activate a poison relic. But Seo

50:59doesn't even move because nothing happens. The poison never comes out. Seo simply grabs Takuya by the

51:05head and slams his face into the counter, reminding him that once his dominance is weakened, he can't use

51:10relics anymore. Takuya turns around to look at Seo and is completely shocked that he knows so much

51:16about relics. Without saying another word, Seo picks up the relic and easily tames it using his

51:21overwhelming dominance. Once the relic submits to him, Seo pours its powder onto Takuya's back.

51:27This relic is actually a great abound relic that was originally created among slaves in Africa.

51:32Anyone who touches the powder or even breathes it in will temporarily lose their mind and become a

51:37zombie with no will of their own. As expected, that's exactly what happens to Takuya, seeing him

51:42reduced to a mindless zombie. Seo figures this should be enough to slow Tijun's plans down for

51:47at least a little while. The next day, Takuya is locked inside a detention room at Tijun headquarters.

51:53Even after an entire day has passed, he's still wandering around like a brainless zombie.

51:57Several agents asked Tijun what they should do with Takuya, but Tijun couldn't care less about his

52:02condition. He tells them to forget about Takuya and focus on recovering all of the relics that were

52:07supposed to be in his possession. The agents nervously explain that when Takuya was taken

52:12into custody, they couldn't find a single relic on him. Hearing that only makes Tijun even angrier.

52:17Furious that both the relics and his agent have become useless,

52:21he immediately orders his men to contact his lawyer, Misako, as quickly as possible.

52:25The following day, Seo arrives at the airport with Arai and the rest of his lackeys. Most of the

52:30luggage they're carrying is filled with the valuable relics Seo has managed to collect so far.

52:35Looking at everything he's gathered, Seo is confident these relics will help him obtain

52:40even more powerful relics in the future. Just before he boards his flight, Tijun's lawyer,

52:45Misako, suddenly appears and asks to speak with him. The meeting ends up making Seo miss his flight

52:50entirely. Misako explains that she's there on Tijun's behalf to offer Seo a contract.

52:55According to the deal, Seo will immediately receive a payment of $100 million. After that,

53:01he'll continue receiving a generous monthly salary. And Tijun promises that nobody will

53:05interfere with his personal life. All Seo has to do in return is become one of Tijun's subordinates

53:11and work for his organization. Seo doesn't even think about the offer before rejecting it. He

53:15bluntly calls it nothing more than a slave's contract. Misako still tries to persuade him,

53:20warning him that making an enemy out of Tijun is a terrible idea because he's one of the most

53:25powerful men around. Instead of answering with words, Seo pulls out the zombie powder relic and

53:30tells Misako that she's the one who should be worried. Misako remains completely calm because

53:35she believes Seo is only bluffing. After all, she doesn't think he'd dare use such a dangerous relic in

53:41the middle of a crowded airport. The very next second, Seo proves her wrong. The moment he moves,

53:46Misako instantly slides backward and fires a powerful water cannon straight at him. Seo quickly

53:51activates Hammurabi's stone and blocks the attack with ease. The relic immediately reflects the

53:56water cannon back at Misako, sending the attack right back at its owner and knocking her onto the

54:01ground. Everyone nearby is amazed by the fight unfolding in front of them. The battle looks so

54:06incredible that people immediately pull out their phones and begin recording everything they see.

54:11As Misako struggles to get back on her feet, Seo calmly walks over to her and prepares to pour the

54:16zombie powder onto her. Not long afterward, airport security receives several reports

54:21about a naked woman causing trouble and harassing people inside the terminal. From those reports

54:26alone, it's obvious that Seo ended up using the relic on her. After claiming Misako's relic for himself,

54:32the mysterious crow suddenly speaks to Seo and warns him that danger is rapidly approaching.

54:37Instead of listening, Seo starts punching the air in frustration because he has no intention of

54:42taking orders from the same crow that sent him back in time without giving him any explanation.

54:47Just then, Tijun himself walks into the room. The moment Arai sees him,

54:50he becomes nervous and quietly asks Seo if they're really going to be okay.

54:55Tijun casually introduces himself to Arai, but before Arai even has a chance to respond,

55:00Tijun activates one of his relics. A streak of purple lightning instantly strikes Arai

55:04and all of his lackeys at the same time. The moment Seo sees the look on Tijun's face,

55:09he immediately realizes that the situation has just become far more dangerous than before.

55:14That was episode 5. Subscribe to not miss the next part and watch the next video on screen.
