Unbreakable

Chapter 50: To the South

“South of this peninsula.”

“South?”

Dohyuk was relieved to know they weren’t going too far.

“But why?” Dohyuk asked again.

“…”

“I don’t know. It’s rare for gods to talk to each other.”

“Then how do you know that we’re going south?”

“Because those who are moving this land are using their power to push it in the same direction.”

“…? Huh? What are you talking about?”

The gods didn’t talk to each other, but they were moving this island in unison?

“Are you being bullied?”

“….!”

Aruga punched Dohyuk, and he dodged and swung his arm. Aruga’s wrist fell to the ground.

“…”

“…”

-…

The three of them were at a loss.

“Let’s cut to the chase.”

Aruga explained, “There’s… a difference in what we know.”

“What difference?”

“Other than special circumstances, we do not talk to lowly beings. But even if we don’t… there are those who peek and stalk.”

Aruga didn’t explain it properly, but Dohyuk knew what it meant. There was a limit as to how far gods could see and hear. So, they used their followers to collect information. Of course-

“…”

“W-what? Don’t look at me like that.”

Aruga had the least chance of having followers, meaning he would have the least amount of information.

“Well, it’s okay.” Dohyuk sighed, “I didn’t expect it anyway.”

“W-Wait! You bastard…!”

Aruga’s figure became transparent. He was focusing on himself to regain his pride. He couldn’t be mocked like that anymore.

“I will show you, you fool, what a god truly is!”

…

“Good thinking, Jimin.”

Nahee looked very happy.

“I’m glad you’re joining us.”

“…”

Jimin quietly checked herself and the backpack.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t touch your stuff.”

“…”

‘It’s not mine. It’s for Dohyuk,’ thought Jimin, but she did not say that aloud. Instead, she asked, “I need to set one thing straight before I join you.”

“Huh?”

“What plan do you have against the ‘South’?”

South, everyone who followed Dohyuk knew. Dohyuk was called the Great Emperor when he conquered all of East Asia. However, the last place he conquered wasn’t Japan, China, or North Korea. It was toward the south, where a small region ruled by a monster. It was small, but there was one who earned the title of ‘King’ before Dohyuk did.

The rule was simple. The strong survive, and the weak die. That was the rule set by Jung Ilgyu the Tyrant. The fight against him was the most intense fight of all for Dohyuk. When Dohyuk finally defeated Ilgyu and went down to his base, they were shocked. Not many humans were alive. It seemed like people’s hate toward weak was greater than any other place in the world.

“As you said, people will become more powerful at an unimaginable rate. I’m sure Jung Ilgyu will come up then.”

The purpose will be simple. Kill Dohyuk. The enemy that stopped his tyranny.

“If he comes up… there will be bloodshed. Honestly, I was worried whether I could defeat him again.”

It was true. Even if she wasn’t divided from Dohyuk, she would have worried about Ilgyu.

“Do you know what I’m trying to say? Even if you act for Dohyuk, it means nothing if we don’t have a plan against Jung Ilgyu. It’s easier for us to find Dohyuk and run north instead.”

“…You.” Nahee smiled, “You’re talking about the obvious.”

An ominous smile. But it wasn’t for Jimin.

“Of course I was thinking about it. Not only Ilgyu… I plan to wipe out all those trash.”

Her eyes grew cold as she spoke.

“There is no place for trash in Dohyuk’s world.”

“…”

“I can tell you all the plans, but first… we have to leave this place.”

They were in the city of Aruga. Nahee’s people were already prepared to leave.

“Are you coming?”

Nahee reached out.

“…Okay.”

Jimin held on. It was cold.

‘What I need to do is…’

It was simple. She had to help Nahee and gain her trust until she fought Jung Ilgyu.

‘I don’t care who wins.’

Even if both factions grew in power, a fight between them would result in heavy damage for anyone who survived. And when that happened…

‘I will kill the winner.’

To get rid of any obstacle against Dohyuk.

Aruga looked at Dohyuk proudly. Dohyuk did not answer.

“…”

Busan.

That was the destination this island was moving to. Aruga had overheard it from people who stayed in his city. He also heard that a monster was living there. The monster was waiting to exact revenge against Dohyuk because of what happened in the previous life.

“I think they are crazy because I couldn’t understand half of what they said.”

“…”

“But I guess you were quite famous even before the trial started?”

“…I guess.”

“You guess?”

“No, never mind. Let’s continue with our plan.”

And Dohyuk began discussing with Aruga.

-…

Basil was dumbfounded. He was basically watching Dohyuk talking to Aruga. At first, Basil just thought Dohyuk was an interesting mortal. Other than his godliness, he didn’t have anything special. Even then, it only meant something to the gods, not to an angel like Basil. If that was so, why was he still looking at Dohyuk?

‘Maybe if I can do… that?!’

Basil was shocked at himself for what he just thought.

‘…Did I just wish to do that?’

But what? What was ‘that’? Basil became dizzy and flew up. He had every intention to see how the ‘deal’ made between Aruga and Dohyuk would unfold, but he had to go to the tower to ease his dizziness.

BOOOM!

A large sound and vibration followed with the tremor, waking Dohyuk up who was sleeping against the city wall. The relocation was done. The island was no longer an island, and it was now stuck in a place where it would have been a beach. All he could see in front was a tall forest, and at the borderline where the desert met the forest, people were coming to investigate.

Dohyuk did not move. The number of people that came from the forest was over three digits. However, most of them stayed by the forest and only a handful of them came up to Dohyuk. When they became close enough so that Dohyuk could hear their voices, Dohyuk walked up to them.

“F*ck! It’s all desert!”

“Isn’t this that Aruga’s? What is this?! My ‘first pass’ that I got from killing those fools was worthless!”

“Hey, look!”

People turned to Dohyuk. Dohyuk sensed it immediately. All of them were disgustingly bloodthirsty.

“Who are you? When did you come here? Are you from here?”

“…”

Dohyuk raised his eyebrows. He had not experienced a meeting where people did not recognize him. It seemed all ten of them did not know the face of the Great Emperor. This was because the south had been keeping to themselves until they fought against Dohyuk who gained fame to become the Great Emperor afterward.

“I…”

“Talk, you sh*t! Don’t you have a mouth?!”

“Why don’t we just kill him first?”

Then they came. Or tried to.

Dohyuk raised his hand, “This is a warning.”

He warned them. “You guys showed hostility, so if this hand goes down, you all will die.”

“What?”

“Place your hands behind your head and kneel. Then I will take that as you have no will to fight and you may continue to talk.”

They became dumbfounded for a second and then burst into laughter.

“HAHAHAHAHA! THAT MOTHERF*CKER!”

“I WAS F*CKING SCARED, MAN!”

“He ain’t from here. He’s a Northy!”

“Hey, you think I’m scared of that?”

Then they walked again. However, the one that looked like a leader-

“Hey, I don’t think I can go.”

He made a gesture as if he was kneeling down.

“What are you doing you fools? He said he will kill us all…”

In the next moment, Dohyuk put his hand down and light came.

Nine rays of light.

“AAAAAAARGH!”

“H-HELP!!!!!’

The nine others were either burning or had burned to death.

“One. That’s more than expected.”

Dohyuk was slightly surprised.

“I’m Yoo Dohyuk.”
