Chapter 610: Is it Bichor or is it Bichon?
<em>(<strong>Bichor</strong>)</em>
<em><strong>Rank</strong>: The One that Challenged the Gods</em>
<em><strong>Type</strong>: Vassal</em>
<em><strong>Level</strong>: 584</em>
<em><strong>Attack</strong>: 1,031</em>
<em><strong>Defense</strong>: 2,100</em>
<em><strong>Special Abilities</strong>: </em>
<em>?Passive Skill: The God-like Trap Specialist</em>
<em>?Active Skill: Trap Creation</em>
<em>?Active Skill: Trap Explosion</em>
<em><strong>Potential</strong>: 157</em>
<em><strong>Experience Value</strong>: 19% / 100%</em>
Minhyuk stared at Bichor, who was covered in a bright light. He thought that perhaps Bichor would return to his true self once the light faded away. It seemed like Bichor also believed that he would return to his human form after swearing his eternal loyalty to Minhyuk. So, Bichor closed his teary eyes and epted the light wholeheartedly.
“Fufufu. Even the Gods will fear the greatness and majesty that I will show to the world after this chaotic time…”
“…”
Minhyuk thought that his father, Bichor, Ali, and Death would have a grand time together if they all went on a party hunt. Of course, Minhyuk did not forget to closely examine Bichor’s stats window.
<em>‘His attack and defense are on the lower side.’</em>
However, it had to be known that Bichor did not have abat ss. He was someone that created various things like traps and the like.
<em>‘The reason I chose Bichor was…’</em>
After Minhyuk had put the puzzle pieces of Bichor’s stories together, he realized that the possibilities were endless. Also…
<em>‘When ites to fighting to protect those that are dear to us, no one will have a more shocking power than Bichor.’</em>
Then, Minhyuk moved to check the detailed descriptions of Bichor’s skills.
<em>(<strong>The God-like Trap Specialist</strong>)</em>
<em>Passive Skill</em>
<em><strong>Level</strong>: None</em>
<em><strong>Effects</strong>:</em>
<em>?Any trap that he produces will be at least at the Epic rank.</em>
<em>?Any trap that he produces will exert three to six times stronger power than traps created by ordinary trap specialists.</em>
<em>?There will be no major restrictions on the number of traps that he can create, no matter the kind.</em>
<em>?His speed at creating any kind of trap will be several times faster than the speed of ordinary trap specialists.</em>
<em>?Bichor has created a total of 1,574 Legendary rank traps so far.</em>
<em>?Bichor has created a total of 54 God rank traps so far.</em>
<em>‘Keok?!!!’</em>
Minhyuk was shocked. Why? It was because Bichor’s passive skill ‘The God-like Trap Specialist’ was just ridiculous. Traps created by trap specialists followed the same ranking as the equipment and dishes created by cksmiths and chefs.
<em>‘From what I heard, the highest ranking trap that Alborr, the most famous trap specialist among all of the trap specialists, was only at the Legendary rank.’</em>
Aside from that, the traps that Minhyuk was aware of were only at the Epic or Unique ranks. But what about Bichor?
<em>‘All of the traps that he will create would at least have the Epic rank?’</em>
However, what was more surprising was…
<em>‘There’s no restrictions on the number of traps that he can make?!’</em>
This was a truly overpowered advantage. In fact, the trap specialist Alborr could only make around 100 traps per day. But Bichor could make tens of thousands each day if he so wanted to. On top of that, his speed was said to be several times faster than ordinary trap specialists and even the power of his traps were several times stronger than their traps.
“Fufufufu! Look! Witness my greatness!”
“…”
Minhyuk stared at Bichor, wondering when the bright light would fade out. However, regardless of his looks and personality, there was no denying the fact that Bichor was an amazing existence. While waiting for the light to fade, Minhyuk decided to check Bichor’s other skills.
<em>(<strong>Trap Creation</strong>)</em>
<em>Active Skill</em>
<em><strong>Level</strong>: 9</em>
<em><strong>Effects</strong>:</em>
<em>?Bichor can instantly make traps that he had created in the past.</em>
<em>?Number of possible Normal rank traps that can be recreated: 1,000</em>
<em>?Number of possible Unique rank traps that can be recreated: 500</em>
<em>?Number of possible Epic rank traps that can be recreated: 50</em>
<em>?Number of possible Legendary rank traps that can be recreated: 2</em>
<em>?Number of possible God rank traps that can be recreated: 1</em>
“…???”
<em>‘Wait a minute.’</em>
Minhyuk doubted his eyes for a moment. Bichor could instantly make the traps that he created in the past? It was like saying that any of the dishes that Minhyuk had eaten in the past could appear immediately in front of him at the flick of a finger. What was more surprising was the fact that those traps also included Legendary-grade and God-grade ones.
“Hoo… Hoo…”
Minhyuk had to take deep breaths to calm himself down. The skill was just too overpowered. There was one thing that he had confirmed from this. Making two Legendary ranked traps would render Bichor’s skills to instantly create traps useless for three entire months. As for the God ranked trap, once it was installed, he would not be able to use the skill for an entire year.
<em>‘But if we install 500 Unique rank traps and 50 Epic rank traps right this instant then…’</em>
Thebination of these traps disyed would likely be already close to the God-rank level. Minhyuk checked the remaining skill right away.
<em>(<strong>Trap Explosion</strong>)</em>
<em>Active Skill</em>
<em><strong>Level</strong>: 9</em>
<em><strong>Effects</strong>:</em>
<em>?All of the traps that are currently installed will simultaneously explode.</em>
<em>?When all traps were set to explode at the same time, the damage from the explosive power of the explosion is expected to be doubled.</em>
Trap Explosion was a skill that seemed somewhat disappointing. After all, it was a waste of the traps that Bichor had installed to explode all at once. On top of that, it was not just one trap, but all of them. However, if the enemies were all within the range of the traps, then it would bring about an unimaginable destructive power upon them.
After checking everything, Minhyuk turned to look back at Bichor. Gradually, the bright and blinding light started to fade. Bichor, who was ovee with emotion and still had his eyes closed, said, “Finally, I have found my true self once again. My beautiful, elegant and cool figure… Fufu. Fufufufufu!”
“…???”
Bichor slowly opened his eyes and looked down at his hands, “That’s right. My hands look like this. Fluffy and pink and covered with white fur… huh?”
Bichor’s figure did not change.
That was right. Minhyuk could only make one wish, which was to help ‘Bichor’ escape from the Abyss, the Tomb of the Gods. The wish for him to return from a ‘dog’ to a ‘person’ could not be fulfilled.
As for Bichor? All he could do was howl, “<em>Woof, woof! Arf, arf! Grrrrrrr!</em>”
This was the story of how Minhyuk got a bichon.
***
The entire South Korea was left in shock after a notification rang for all of the yers that were ying Athenae.
<em>[<strong>Continental Quest</strong>: Unlucky Sword Emperor Ellie.]</em>
<em><strong>Rank</strong>: ???</em>
<em><strong>Requirements</strong>: yers of the Asgan Continent</em>
<em><strong>Rewards</strong>: Depends on the contribution.</em>
<em><strong>Penalty for Failure</strong>: Favor with the people of the Luvien Empire will be the lowest.</em>
<em><strong>Description</strong>: Sword Emperor Ellie has received an edict from Luvien’s Nerva Sephiroth. The edict dictates that the continent will go under the rule of the Luvien Empire under the pretext of an ‘alliance’. </em>
<em>Ellie had decided to tear the edict apart. This action will result in the sessive raids and invasions on the Asgan Continent, by the Luvien Empire. Once they breach the Asgan Continent’s defensive lines, they would immediately head to Eivelis Empire and depose Ellie. </em>
<em>Save Ellie and be the heroes of Asgan Continent, the continent that is on the verge of copse!</em>
All of the yers were already expecting something like this to happen.
<em>[Based on the second era’s trailer, Ellie would be deposed from Eivelis Empire by the Luvien Empire’s forces. This is the beginning of her true journey to bing the Continental Emperor. Now, Eliie would be deposed and start to wander aimlessly all over the continent.]</em>
<em>[I know that this is just a story but as a yer of Asgan Continent it hurts my heart just by knowing that I will witness how Ellie will fall ??. Can a yer change the story?]</em>
<em>[Hey, person above me, aren’t you being too immature with your words? Haha. Didn’t you see how the Luvien Empire trampled on Argaon Continent? This is not a situation that you can change just because the yers will gather together.]</em>
<em>[It would already be a relief if the yers of Asgan Continent helped defend the continent.]</em>
It was only natural for Asgan Continent yers to fight for the continent. So, why did someone say that it would be a relief if they did something like that? The reason was simple. It was because another set of notification rang in their ears the moment the Unlucky Sword Emperor quest appeared.
<em>[<strong>Empire Quest</strong>: For the Luvien Empire.]</em>
<em><strong>Rank</strong>: ???</em>
<em><strong>Requirements</strong>: yers of the Asgan Continent.</em>
<em><strong>Rewards</strong>: Depends on the contribution.</em>
<em><strong>Penalty for Failure</strong>: Expulsion from the Asgan Continent.</em>
<em><strong>Description</strong>: Battle God’s Sword Nerva Sephiroth is trying to bring the entire world under his rule. To do so, he wants to try and borrow the power of the Asgan Continent yers. You might be able to win both riches and glory if you fight together with him and his newly emerging Luvien Empire.</em>
That was right. Two quests had beenunched at the same time. And now…
<em>[Poor Ellie…]</em>
<em>[…what will Ellie do?]</em>
<em>[…]</em>
Some of the BJs were filming Ellie and they broadcasted how Ellie asked for troops from all of the empires and kingdoms in the continent.
However, as she stood on top of the ramparts, Ellie saw that no one hade. No kingdom, no empire and no foreigner guilds came at her call. Her face waspletely expressionless as she looked around.
“Your Majesty…”
Ellie did not answer Ruth. She was fully aware that the Luvien Empire had intervened. Just like how they issued a quest, the Luvien Empire also issued one, promising various rewards,pensations and troops if they remained silent in their own kingdoms and empires.
Did she resent them? No. Because this was what she had expected from humans and their greed. All she did was stare nkly at the empty grounds beyond the ramparts.
“Aide Ruth.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“I miss Minhyuk.”
Because unlike these people that turned their back on her, this boy woulde running for her no matter what. And that thought alone made Ellie smile.
***
At the same time, in Iris Guild.
Marquis Khan, an executive of the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom, secretly arrived at Iris Guild’s territory. Iris Guild’s Callian had already decided to side with the ‘Luvien Empire’.
“Go back, Khan. We will not fight for Eivelis Empire. They will ultimately face their defeat.”
They would not fight for Asgan Continent, instead, they would side with Luvien Empire andy the entire continent to waste. However, Khan still came and delivered Minhyuk’s words to him. After hearing him out, Iris Guild Master Callian pondered for a moment.
“The story is something that we change… Interesting.”
Callian looked back at the guild members that he had chosen to send to the Luvien Empire and said, “The ns have changed. We’re going to war to help the Eivelis Empire!!!”
In another ce. Beyond the Heavens’ Vice Guild Master Genie delivered Minhyuk’s words to Orodith Kingdom’s King Eren. Eren smiled in amusement after hearing the words, “A new history will be written in the Asgan Continent…” King Eren finally made his decision, “Send support troops to Eivelis Empire!!!”
The Beyond the Heavens’ executives started to arrive in each and every nation in the continent.
In another ce, Chairman Kang Minhoo, who attended the meeting with the directors, looked sad for no reason at all.
“…Is there something wrong, Chairman?”
“No. It’s nothing.”
“But you look very sad?”
“…The truth is,” Chairman Kang Minhoo began to spill the beans, “Not too long ago, I went to another continent. However, the Luvien Empire’s army treated me horribly, suppressing me, mocking me and trampling on me.”
This was an outright lie. Chairman Kang Minhoo was lying. However, there were tears in his eyes!!! Everyone felt like tears would start to drip down his cheeks at any moment! And the moment everyone heard his words…
“…”
“…”
“…!”
<em>Crash!</em>
“How dare they do that to the Chairman…!”
“Who are those bastards?!”
“Those bastards!!!”
…the board members jumped up in fury. But Kang Minhoo shook his head and said, “No, this is my business. All of you should stay out of it. It’s alright, I just feel a bit sad over this matter. Everyone experiences something like this, right? Of course, the thought of quitting this game because of that crossed my mind… But you guys should never get involved!!! Ah. But from what I heard Luvien Empire is going to war with Eivelis Empire. Which side are you going to choose?”
The ones that were quick-witted immediately understood. They quickly whipped their mobile phones out the moment they left the conference room and…
“Tell the members of the legal team that the chairman has been attacked by the Luvien Empire’s Army! What? Why am I calling about that?! Of course it’s because I’m going to the Eivelis Empire!”
“Let’s gather in Eivelis Empire!!!”
“All members of Uncle Legend Guild, gather at Eivelis Empire!!!”
Ilhwa Group was a globalpany and rumors spread fast.
China.
Russia.
Japan.
Vietnam.
Thand.
There were people that respected and loved Chairman Kang Minhoo in all of these ces.

Ellie remained standing on the same spot. Before she knew it, the sun had begun to set.
“We should stop now and go back inside.”
Ellie remained silent despite Ruth’s words. But then, at that moment…
<em>Vwooooooooooong—</em>
The loud re of a horn resounded in the area. Ellie’s eyes immediately turned to the direction where the sound came from. There, she saw dozens of allied guilds from Asgan Continent marching toward Eivelis Empire. Their numbers almost reached 500,000, a truly shocking number. Standing in front of them was Iris Guild Master Callian, wearing an unknown ck mask on his face.
Then, all over the ce…
<em>Vwoooooooooong—</em>
<em>Vwoooooooooooooong—</em>
The horns’ loud res rang loudly and engulfed the entire Eivelis Empire. Large troops began to pour out from the east, the west, the north, the south, everywhere. Sword Emperor Ellie looked at them and estimated that there were roughly 3.5 million troops that were marching toward where they were.
At the same time.
President Kang Taehoon was currently standing beside Supeputer Athenae.
Just the other day, Kang Taehoon asked Athenae what Ellie’s chances were in oveing this story. And she answered…
<em>[0%. There’s absolutely no chance of that happening.]</em>
Athenae answered coldly. But now…
<em>[4%. The chances have increased to 4%.]</em>
“…”
Kang Taehoon felt the mes of passion start to burn deep in his heart.
“The world that the yers have created…”
That world was Athenae.
