Chapter 349: Gift
While Choi Yuna and Iris were manufacturing elixirs in the basent.
Kim Minwoo moved to see his younger sister for the first ti in a while.
‘Co to think of it, I've lived too busily lately.’
It was to prevent the destruction of Earth by the Outer Gods, but still, it wasn't to the extent that he couldn't even make this much ti.
He especially missed Naye.
Since it ca to mind, he decided to move right away.
Miracle Kindergarten, where only the children of the absolute best VVIPs in Korea attended.
And among them, the exclusive outdoor garden for the Morning Star Class on the top floor, the 21st floor.
Kim Minwoo, with Hayang resting on his shoulder, was glaring intently at a corner of the garden while wrapped in concealnt magic.
‘……That bold little punk, seriously.’
Kim Minwoo's brow furrowed deeply.
At the end of his gaze were two children sitting side by side on a bench.
It was his precious youngest sister Naye and a 7-year-old kid with his blond hair neatly combed back, Alex.
“Naye, try eating this. It's beef jerky specially dried from 1 No. 9 grade Hanwoo.”
“Wow! at!”
The guy known as the eldest grandson of the Rothschild family, wherever he found out about it, was offering up top-grade at, Naye's absolute favorite snack, as tribute.
Looking at Naye, whose cheeks were bulging as she chewed the beef jerky, Alex smiled greasily with his chin resting on his hand.
“Is it delicious? If you marry , I'll let you eat things like this every single day from our family's cattle ranch.”
Kim Minwoo's eyes narrowed.
Marriage?
To appeal with the Rothschild family's imnse wealth through re infinite beef refills.
It was a 7-year-old-like idea so it was cute, but…….
‘I absolutely cannot tolerate this trick of daring to eat my sister for free.’
If Naye even accepted it…….
Sothing that would force him to release his stealth would happen.
“Mmm…….”
“How is it? Aren't I pretty dependable? My future is guaranteed too.”
Naye, having swallowed the beef jerky, answered while sucking the powder off her fingers.
“The at is delicious, but you're too scrawny.”
“……Huh?”
“You have to be reeeally tall and have a strong fra like our Mister Cedric, or smash monsters kwang-kwang like my brother to be dependable. You don't even have strength.”
At the relentless bombardnt of facts, Alex's face trembled violently.
Kim Minwoo, watching that sight, cheered inwardly.
‘Ku! As expected of my sister! She doesn't fall for a few pieces of at!’
Kim Minwoo released his concealnt and walked out confidently.
“Naye.”
“Huh? Brother!”
Naye ca running jjoreureu and hung onto Kim Minwoo's leg. Kim Minwoo picked Naye up in a flash and shot a chilling glare toward the frozen Alex.
“You bold little punk. I'm pretty sure I warned you last ti?”
“B-brother! Are you here!”
“Who's your brother. Naye, brother told you, right? A guy who puts wax in his hair and acts greasily like this is a what?”
“A wolf! A bad wolf!”
“Exactly. A slacker like this is absolutely not dating material. Got it?”
It was the mont Kim Minwoo was about to educate her firmly.
Naye brought her mouth close to Kim Minwoo's ear and whispered in a voice like a mature adult.
“Yeah, I know too, brother.”
“……Huh?”
“He's just a at shuttle. You said I shouldn't just et any guy however I want. I won't fall for him. I'm just getting snacks out of him, so don't be too mad either.”
Kim Minwoo's jaw dropped at the sight of Naye even winking coyly.
‘Hah…….’
While he had been rolling around in the Demon Realm and smashing the Heavenly City, living so busily he didn't even have ti to open his eyes.
When did his sister, whom he thought was just a snot-nosed kid, grow up so precociously?
Until just a while ago, she was a child who rejoiced as if she had the whole world just from a single toy.
But to think she had already reached the level of thoroughly taking care of her own practical benefits and managing her fishery.
Kim Minwoo clicked his tongue at his younger sister's terrifying absorption capacity and capitalistic mindset.
‘They say kids these days are very precocious, but…….’
It seed Naye was exactly like that too.
The mont this overwhelming emotion and bitterness intersected, an information window popped up before Kim Minwoo's eyes.
[Kim Naye]
[Level: Unawakened, 0.]
[Favorability: 99.]
[Potential: Oho?]
[Thoughts on Target: Brother is the best.]
[Awakening Condition: He#% of Noth#%ness.]
[Target ‘Kim Naye’ must do an ac#@ that s#@s the wor#@ of all peo#@.]
[This ac#@ looks very #@!, but in tr#*th is #@! her#@ #@^ thing&%$ #@.]
Naye's awakening condition, which he couldn't read entirely due to a lack of mana during his low-level days in the past.
However, it is different now.
Not only had his level risen significantly in the anti, but he had also obtained nurous pieces of equipnt, including the Girdle of the Death Emperor.
The fact that all his stats had increased by nearly 1,000 upon catching Lupus was a bonus.
With his current overwhelming amount of mana, having surpassed world rankers and approached the ranks of the Seven Lords, he felt like he could break through that security.
[Will you consu a massive amount of mana to view Kim Naye's awakening condition, 'Abyss'?]
‘Of course I should see it.’
[All of the target's mana is consud!]
[Security is partially released!]
Shuuuuuk―!
In an instant, his mana evaporated like an ebbing tide.
Amidst intense dizziness, the ominous truth of the abyss that the system had tried to hide was forcibly trying to reveal itself.
It was a terrible repulsive force, as if the maw of a massive abyss was trying to swallow his mind whole.
For this mont at least, he had to endure a pressure to the point where his brain trembled and his breath choked.
[Awakening Condition: Unconscious Hero.]
[Target 'Kim Naye' must do an ac#@ that s#@s the wor#@ unawares to herse#@.]
[This ac#@ looks very #@!, but in tr#*th is #@! her#@ #@^ thing&%$ #@.]
“…….”
Kim Minwoo, who was sweating profusely because his mana had hit rock bottom, blinked his eyes.
‘No, is this for real?’
The overwhelming amount of mana he had reached after beating down one of the Seven Lords.
He had ground in a whopping 70,000 mana entirely, but all he had decrypted was just that one title ‘Unconscious Hero’ in the front, and the single phrase ‘unawares to herself’?
The rest of the core content was still locked up tight like an iron fortress with broken letters.
He was so dumbfounded that not even a hollow laugh ca out.
‘Just what kind of condition is it?’
Even though he squeezed out the EX-grade Demon Eye to its limit, the system was gritting its teeth and placing security on it.
Just what in the world was that Unconscious Hero?
And what kind of terrible incident would happen if Naye awakened that it was hiding it this thoroughly?
It was the mont he was about to try digging into the abyss one more ti.
[Warning!]
[The maximum amount of mana that can be used when examining the abyss is proportional to your current maximum mana!]
[Cannot analyze any further!]
‘Damn it. After I went through all the trouble of using up all my mana.’
Anyway, one thing was certain.
Naye's awakening condition was bound to be a disgustingly tricky and unrealistic condition even at a glance.
The vision that Alex said he saw through his future sight in the past, where Naye smashed a monster with a single kick and saved people, was not a bluff.
It was when Kim Minwoo's complexion hardened at the ominous premonition that it would inevitably interlock with his own goal of hunting Outer Gods.
“Brother, what's wrong?”
“……No. It's nothing.”
At that ti, the quick-witted Alex stealthily approached.
“Brother, your expression doesn't look good. Was the tribute I gave perhaps lacking?”
“This guy is really picking and choosing only the words that make want to flick him on the forehead.”
As Kim Minwoo showed his clenched fist, Alex urgently raised both his hands.
“Wait! Before you hit , listen to my information first! I haven't just been sitting still being a at shuttle!”
“Information?”
“Yes. It's regarding the High Priest and the Apostle Hadronox that you were interested in last ti, Brother.”
Kim Minwoo slipped his hands over Naye's ears and narrowed his eyes.
“Tell .”
The cheekiness vanished from Alex's young face as if washed away.
The chilling look unique to a prophet who sees the future settled in the young child's pupils.
“The Shadow bastards. Lately, they've been madly scraping together funds and resources on a global scale, right? You should know this too, Brother.”
“I know.”
“I took a little peek at their secret eting with my future sight. Those guys are currently building an ark.”
Kim Minwoo's eyebrows twitched.
Ark.
It was the word the High Priest had ntioned in passing when contacting Lucas in the past.
“That ark is a massive fortress and ritual circle designed for them to survive alone amidst the upcoming descent of the Outer Gods and dinsional collapse.”
Alex gulped down dry saliva.
“However, to start the ark, sacrifices transcending imagination are needed. Before long…… those guys will carry out a massacre, using one of Earth's nurous cities entirely as a scapegoat to fill the ark's power.”
A massacre that grinds up an entire city.
The scale of the Shadows was finally about to break through the critical point.
“You didn't see which city it is?”
“It was too much to see that far. However, it's certain that they will move soon.”
It was highly critical and important information.
If it weren't for Alex, he might have faced a massive gate explosion or a city destruction incident without even knowing the reason.
Kim Minwoo let out a low sigh.
“……That was helpful. I acknowledge it.”
As soon as those words dropped, a cheeky bright look returned to Alex's face.
“Right? My information is quite useful, isn't it? Then around this point, permitting to officially date Naye is……!”
Ttak―!
“Ayayayat!”
Kim Minwoo's rciless finger flick hit Alex right on the forehead.
“I'll give you credit for the information. But over my dead body will a scrawny kid like you be Naye's boyfriend. I'll bring Cedric and have him make you do lower body exercises first, so when you can squat 200kg, I'll think about it again then.”
“T-to a seven-year-old, a 200kg squat! Brother! That's too harsh!”
“If you're mad about it, try stealing a peek at when I'll allow it with your future sight.”
Alex jumped up and down in unfairness, and Naye burst into giggles looking at him.
Amidst that peaceful and noisy daily life, Kim Minwoo's gaze was quietly heading toward the empty air.
‘The ark, and Naye's awakening condition, huh…….’
The future was approaching, foretelling an uncontrollable storm.
