“You don’t need to act as a Lifer. Become the subject of the mission. You could become the subject. You wouldn’t be a human at that moment.”

Cha Jun Sung blinked.

If he understood correctly, this means he would take on the role of a mutant being hunted by Lifers.

‘My identity won’t be revealed if I kill Tyrant in my mutant form.’

There are more pros than cons no matter how he thinks about it, but there is a fatal problem here. The operation is a failure if he can’t figure this out.

“Will that be possible when Borteth knows my mutant form?”

“Only us three supervisors know about this. The general manager used his authority to put a gag order. But the probability that Borteth follows this is low, since going against the rules is his specialty. That’s why I’ll keep Borteth marked while you do it. It’ll be about a couple months.”

As long as the supervisors don’t get involved, the restrictions on Cha Jun Sung’s actions disappear.

It becomes an environment in which he can focus on Tyrant.

“Is ‘Tyrant’s death’ all you’re asking for? There’s nothing more, right?”

“Borteth is abusing his authority as a supervisor. If Tyrant dies, he not only won’t have the power to reinvest, but he can’t use another card so he won’t be able to act so freely. It won’t be easy. You know that, right?”

He knows well.

Jigneon wants Tyrant’s death.

In other words, results.

He needs to fight Lifers who came in with him as well. If the situation worsens, he might need to face Bloody Kingdom Rankers.

‘That means I can’t get help.’

His mutation is a secret he can’t tell anyone. If he fights as a mutant, he can’t get help from his friends. He needs to resolve it himself.

‘Will I be able to control the mutant?’

The superior mutant exercises strong dominance over the inferior mutant. Instilling absolute fear allows a king to reign. Strength is everything with the law of the jungle.

If Cha Jun Sung is able to control mutants in the vicinity with his level 8 dominion, it would be of great help.

‘Funny.’

To be considering it after getting dragged here against his will, he can’t get the drift of whether he should understand or not.

“It’ll become extremely bothersome once Borteth decides to disadvantage you in earnest. You need to cut out his pawn before that happens. I’ll keep his eyes and ears covered for the time being. You have nothing to worry about.”

Jigneon is saying that he will take care of the troublesome aspects so that he can handle the general mission.

“I’ll just ask one thing. If this ends in success, will Borteth find out that I acted as your pawn?”

“He’ll probably find out once his eyes and ears become uncovered, but didn’t I tell you? I’ll watch your back so that he won’t be able to try again.”

Cha Jun Sung interpreted Jigneon’s tone, even though he pretended not to.

He didn’t speak definitively. He twisted the end subtly. It means that he’ll do his best, but he might not become a perfect defense.

‘It looks like I’ll be promoted from a subject to vent on to an enemy if this is a success.’

His friends’ knowledge is too limited for him to discuss with them.

There are too many secrets.

He’ll need to consult with Odin.

Odin could be on Jigneon’s side, but he can just consult with him since he is leaning towards accepting.

“I want to go home. I’ll contact you within a few days, so let me go.”

“Alright.”

Jigneon flicked his fingers once more.

Then a return gate appeared next to Cha Jun Sung. It was like a switch.

Cha Jun Sung lightly greeted Jigneon and went inside.

“I’m neutral.”

Since he can’t show how he really feels, the ways to show his sincerity are very limited. All he can do is hope that the other person believes him.

 

***

 

Cha Jun Sung returned home, took a refreshing shower, and slept deeply.

He doesn’t feel mental or physical fatigue with his superhuman mind and body.

It is out of habit.

He has become a mutant, but his habits linger.

Cha Jun Sung rested for a day, and then called Odin. Jigneon must have reactivated the system he blocked the day before, because a response came right away.

[The three supervisors have very distinct personalities. Jigneon is a monotypical scientist as you said. Borteth is… Gabenu is playful.]

Odin didn’t mention Borteth. Cha Jun Sung doesn’t need him to tell him.

“Anyway, what you’re saying is that he isn’t one to stab me in the back.”

[To Jigneon, you’re the Lifer who has the highest chance of showing him the end of Life Mission. And that’s accomplishing it with your own strength. There’s no reason for him to use you in a negative direction.]

“Is he that trustworthy?”

[Jigneon and Gabenu don’t mistreat helpers. They acknowledge that we have unique privileges and treat us as beings of value.]

Jigneon must be trustworthy from the way Odin is talking about him.

It was a choice between accepting and rejecting. Since he’s made up his mind, he’ll do it properly.

[Acceptance delivered. Mission adjustment following acceptance complete. You will be able to check the mission description once you choose a departure date. Lifers will be able to see after the mission has been settled.]

“Departure… Will it take another couple months?”

[Time is a flexible factor. It is difficult to say what the duration will be. That isn’t something I can control.]

“Then I’ll just rest for a week before I go. I feel bad going right away.”

They took care of a big case, so Park Jin Hyuk’s group won’t be going into any missions for the time being.

He’ll hang out with them for a bit and slip away.

[Would you like to see the primary missions that have been configured for a week later? There can be slight subsequent fluctuations.]

“Huh? Yeah.”

[Level Advancement Mission: Black Devil]

– Goal: Attainment

– Description: Unknown. A Black Devil about which nothing, from where it came from to how it formed, has claimed the western region of North America as its territory. Evil Queen and her 4 daughters have gone missing and other level 8s are hiding all their traces. The Black Devil’s appearance is the medium for a new war cloud hovering over North America. Find the existence of the Black Devil wandering somewhere in the west, and restore North America to the hand of mutants!

– Reward: 8,000,000,000 points. Lucky box.

 

“Am I the Black Devil?”

[It is an appropriate title for you. Don’t you like it? We adapted the name from Asia’s Black Demon because you are similar.]

Cha Jun Sung flinched momentarily. How would the supervisors react if they found out that Black Demon and he were the same people?

Potential level 9. Two Black Demons. They won’t know if he doesn’t tell them.

“It makes me cringe.”

The introduction itself wasn’t that special, but the description made him cringe. 8,000,000,000 designed reward points. It is advancement. It is a bit burdensome.

Cha Jun Sung alone cannot handle advancement abilities.

Jigneon measured it like this because he is a Lifer.

Knowing the enemy and the self always results in wins. Cha Jun Sung knows about Lifers in detail. This is because there is variety in the number of cases.

“There aren’t many advancements. I don’t see the Vanessa mission. Didn’t she survive?”

[She is dead.]

“Why?”

[I don’t know either. The supervisors will know.]

She had been injured, but not enough to die. It seems like something is there, but he halted his curiosity.

He doesn’t care whether Vanessa is dead or alive.

“Maybe it’s because Vanessa is dead, but there are four advancements. Does that mean there are only four opportunities to advance if you can’t find a hidden advancement like with Deep Sea Teeth?”

It is 5 including Cha Jun Sung’s Black Devil.

All of them except 1 are for 8 billion points. The mission with the most points is for 15 billion.

It has to be high. It is related to the cocoon from Africa.

“What will it feel like to become the subject of a mission?”

Cha Jun Sung used to kill mutants, and now the situation has reversed so that he needs to kill Lifers.

He won’t say that he won’t kill freely. He will do what he sets out to do. Tyrant doesn’t have remorse or a conscience.

“Black Devil. Black Devil? It sticks. I’ll become a Devil. I’ll figure out my abilities for certain as a mutant not a Lifer.”

He’ll fly as a mutant this time. He will become the winner.

“Your mission is a fail. The score is annihilation.”
