“I feel something ominous.”
“Master?”
As I explored in the dark, a sudden, incredibly ominous feeling swept through my body. It reminded me of the anxiety I felt when I nearly got sh0t in the military or when I encountered a madman with a knife.
‘What happened?’
I didn’t know, but I was certain that something bad had occurred. It was clear that I needed to leave this place as quickly as possible.
“Anna.”
“Yes, Master.”
“I have to leave quickly.”
After hearing my words, Anna nodded silently. She hadn’t been fond of this mysterious space from the start.
“But, Master, I don’t know how to get out…”
“It’s okay. This is obvious, huh?”
Anna appeared confused, not knowing how to leave, but with all the games and anime I’d consumed, I had enough knowledge to escape.
‘Usually, there’s a nucleus in a place like this…’
Everything has a core. For Anna, my summon, it was her foundation, and within this magical barrier, there was likely one as well. If the foundation collapsed, it was common knowledge that everything built around it would also fall apart.
“First… Shall we break it all down?”
I smiled and rolled my shoulders.
Anna used a special skill—a Wish to God. In the game, this skill made the success rate of all actions 100%. If you attacked, you’d land a critical hit; if you defended, you could even avoid undodgeable attacks.
Now that it had become reality, the effect turned me into the embodiment of good fortune.
“This is suspicious!”
Kaang!
The moment I kicked the empty space, a sharp pain shot through my foot. Grabbing it in agony, I rolled on the floor. Anna rushed to me with a worried expression.
“Hey, Master!?”
“Shut up! No, damn it! How hard is that!?”
Only then did I realize how weak I truly was. Even 1-star summons could handle things I couldn’t as an ordinary human.
As I writhed on the floor in pain, I ordered Anna to check the empty space I had kicked. She carefully examined the dark void and soon discovered something.
“Master, this is…”
“It’s the nucleus… Damn it, my foot feels like it’s broken.”
“Are you okay? Should I treat it?”
“No, more importantly… Prepare for battle.”
“Battle? What is that supposed to—”
Whoosh!
Before she could finish, Anna quickly raised her shield to block an incoming attack. The movement was so swift that I barely noticed the attack itself, let alone her defense.
Anna frowned as she turned to face the monster that had attacked her.
“Master, this is…”
“At the core of the nucleus, there’s always a boss monster protecting it.”
An advanced monster, Death Reaper, had appeared.
The skeletal figure wielded a massive scythe, resembling the reapers of Western fairy tales and legends. Its hollow gaze fixed on Anna.
“What are you looking at? Crap.”
I taunted the monster.
A high-level threat? Whatever. There was a 3-star summon here, looking dashing in her exclusive formal dress and recently leveled up!
“Anna, cut it.”
“Yes, my Master.”
With her shield adorned with angel wings and her paladin-like aura, Anna stepped forward to confront the reaper.
I, an ordinary human male, wisely took a step back and hid.

“Y-You want me to kill someone?”
“Yes, Senior. Can you do it?”
Hearing Ian’s request, Dinua looked at him in shock.
Was he trying to prove her loyalty?
It didn’t seem like a joke. He genuinely wanted her to kill someone.
‘Kill someone…?’
Just imagining it made her hands tremble. Fear surged through her body, making her question if she could do something so unimaginable.
But Dinua didn’t want to disappoint him.
It wasn’t a question of ability, but of will. Hesitation wasn’t an option in this moment.
Dinua nodded, her instincts taking over.
“If you want… anything…”
Her eyes shone with determination. It was the kind of look that could make anyone believe she was willing to endure great hardship for her man.
“Then let’s go now.”
“Now?”
Dinua tilted her head in confusion. Where was he taking her?
Without answering, Ian led her to the women’s dormitory.
“Wait, where are we going?”
“Where? Didn’t you say you’d k!ll someone?”
“…This, Ian, is there really someone you want to k!ll so urgently?”
Wasn’t this just a test of her resolve? Dinua looked at Ian, who met her gaze with an expression that said he wouldn’t have asked if he wasn’t serious.
