Chapter 384: Tomb Raider King (2)

Translator: miraclerifle

The team members and people all over the world fell into shock while looking at that familiar face.

“T, that is?!”

The person being shown live right now was definitely Seo Ju-Heon! The team members gasped.

He looked tired and full of injuries, but that face, that way of speaking...

“Captain-nim!”

“Captain!”

"That punk!”

Their eyes opened wide as soon as they saw Ju-Heon.

“That son of a b.i.t.c.h!”

Then they immediately started swearing.

“Is that really that motherf.u.c.king Captain?”

“That s.h.i.+tty b.a.s.t.a.r.d didn't die?”

“Hmph, he should have just disappeared for good. Why did he come back?”

Chloe laughed and made a comment.

“Why don't you choose either crying or laughing instead of both?”

She could hear the rest of the team grumbling as soon as she said that.

“I really thought he died. I almost had a heart attack...!”

“Yeah, there’s no way that punk would have died.”

“d.a.m.n it, I'm not happy to see him at all. It was so refres.h.i.+ng to not see his face...!”

Only Jaeha sounded as if he meant what he said, but it didn't matter.

‘The Captain-nim is alive.’

Irene and Seol-A were even hugging each other with tears in their eyes but smiles on their faces.

The two of their white cheeks were flushed with joy and they were sniffling with red noses.

It was the same for Inspector Kim's family who had been missing Ju-Heon in Korea.

“My goodness, it’s our Ju-Heon! He was alive!”

Whether it was the Oh Seung Woo group who were on vacation... Ju-Heon’s one time roommate in Korea... Even Grave Company was flipped over with shock.

“Mr. President, apparently it really is our Representative-nim!”

"What, really?”

“It really is Ju-Heon?”

“Yes it is! Wow, if I think about those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who laughed saying that our stock will fall because our Representative was dead!”

Joy then smiled for the first time in six months.

Ju-Heon’s appearance was causing an uproar all over the world.

Of course, the spies captured by the team were rejecting the truth.

“Are you joking? There’s no way that Seo Ju-Heon is alive!”

“That’s right. That footage must be fake......!”

Julian smirked as if he found them to be ridiculous.

"Then what is this noise I'm hearing right now?”

“......!”

The spies turned pale after hearing noises from their watches.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP-

“It sounds like an extremely urgent alarm. I wonder why it’s going off?”

“......!”

This was a device that checked the danger levels of artifact users based on their auras.

It was similar to a device to detect radiation. The alarm started going off as soon as Ju-Heon appeared.

[Warning. End of World-Grade level.]

[This person is at the Evil G.o.d-Grade level and no other artifact user is able to go up against him.]

The spies became anxious.

"T, this is... umm!”

“I'm pretty sure the only person who can get such a warning is our stupid Captain.”

“D, d.a.m.n it...!”

Julian quickly started moving.

“Keep these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds tied up here!”

“Vice Captain-nim!”

They quickly walked out of the workroom.

‘People from all over the world are going to head over to see if it really is Ju-Heon.’

They would want to confirm if it was him.

And then...

‘There will be b.a.s.t.a.r.ds aiming for Ju-Heon since he became the King of the Artifacts!’

It was obvious to him.

‘Captain-nim!’

“It really is Seo Ju-Heon, Seo Ju-Heon is back!”

They were in a vacant lot in the middle of the city.

It was quite chaotic here because of the first tomb to appear in six months as well as Seo Ju-Heon.

“Seo Ju-Heon confirmed. It does seem to be him.”

The spies who came here after hearing the news were gulping.

“Yes sir, Seo Ju-Heon came out of a tomb that is shaped differently from anything we’ve ever seen before. He doesn't look injured but he looks......”

Ju-Heon looked extremely dirty as he brushed dust and dirt off of his body.

His clothes were all ripped and his hair was a mess but he was even pulling off this homeless look as if it was fas.h.i.+onable.

The spies frowned.

“Yes sir, it looks like the only artifact he has is the rope. I'm sure of it. I cannot... detect any other artifacts.”

They were using the artifact measuring device that had been developed in the past six months to inspect Ju-Heon.

They received orders through their phones.

[Good, get the plan started since we just happen to be able to use artifacts again!]

[Don’t attack him and just put bugs and tracing artifacts on him!]

“...Roger!”

The spies lowered their breathing and took out artifacts.

They didn’t know what was going on, but they were extremely lucky.

They could suddenly use artifacts again.

As for the Hunters who showed up aiming for the Majesty position...

They saw this as a sign from a G.o.d.

Those stupid Hunters were the first to run wild.

“Nice to see you again, Seo Ju-Heon!”

“?”

“Now that we can use artifacts again, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d......!”

But at that moment... As they tried to attack Ju-Heon with artifacts...

Plop.

The artifacts pretended to be dead.

“?!”

That wasn’t all. The artifacts that seemed to have been migrating in ma.s.ses in the sky fell to the ground and the artifacts swimming in the water floated up as if they were dead.

[Hey, we were never moving.]

[W, we’ve been antiques this whole time.]

People dropped their jaws in shock at this odd situation.

It was the same for the Hunters who had triumphantly pushed their artifacts toward Ju-Heon!

“W, what the h.e.l.l? Get back up! Use your abilities! Hey! Your master is giving you an order!”

“Hey!”

All artifacts around the world completely ignored these humans. It was even the case for possession-type artifacts with masters!

But this should have been expected.

‘f.u.c.k you, get lost. Seo Ju-Heon has appeared!’

‘I don't give a s.h.i.+t about you right now......!’

‘W, we’ve been like this the whole time.’

But it didn’t matter.

Ju-Heon smiled while looking at the artifacts pretending to be dead.

"Get up you b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. I saw everything.”

[............!!!]

The artifacts on the ground started shaking in fear.

“I told you b.a.s.t.a.r.ds to not even breathe while I was gone but I see you guys running around having fun? Huh?”

The Majesty’s scary Dominance started to spread!

Artifacts all over the world started screaming.

[d.a.m.n it! The tyrant has appeared!]

[$##$&!]

[Ahhhhhhh, I'm sorryyyyyyyyyy!]

[P, please don’t kill me!]

The artifacts felt wronged. They had pretended to be dead until yesterday and this b.a.s.t.a.r.d had to appear on the day that they decided to move!

How could his timing be so s.h.i.+tty?!

[We have our reasons...!]

[That’s right, it was because our king wasn’t showing himself...!]

Sadly, it didn’t matter.

“We will get started with your disrespectful informal speech!”

That was probably the beginning.

It was the beginning of Seo Ju-Heon ruling with fear.

It was the moment this race called 'artifacts’ feared the words ‘Seo Ju-Heon’ the most.

“Where were you until now?”

The team members frowned while looking at Ju-Heon who was currently on his tenth hamburger.

Ju-Heon’s artifacts were sticking to him and whining with joy.

It was quite funny to see a spear and car rubbing themselves against him asking where he had been.

But Mammon was in the corner crying.

[Soooob, waaaaaah, human, it really is our humaaaaaan!]

The Treasures were all back and Ju-Heon’s powers had become even stronger.

But the dirty-looking Ju-Heon grumbled.

“Hey. Your Captain returns after such a long time and you can't even treat him to steak? Huh? You petty b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.”

Julian became angry.

“Hmph, why the h.e.l.l would we buy you steak? You disappeared without saying anything for six months. You could have at least contacted us!”

“I was testing you guys to see how much you were capable of doing without me around. You barely pa.s.sed.”

"What the h.e.l.l did you just say?!”

“And I did contact you.”

“What?”

Ju-Heon nonchalantly pointed to the letters on the desk.

‘I told you to fix it.’

‘Do you want to die? Hurry up and fix it.’

They were all threats that were ripped up.

“I did contact you. What is the problem?”

The team members grabbed the back of their necks.

‘I want to kill him!’

“Whatever! Anyway, where the h.e.l.l have you been?!”

“Chaos.”

“What?”

“I was dragged into Chaos for a bit.”

The team members foamed at the mouth.

They knew it was possible, but...!

“You somehow managed to get out of there alive!”

“Why did you go to Chaos?”

“Why else? That crazy Chaos b.a.s.t.a.r.d dragged me there.”

“Your majesty, how does that make me look if you put it like that?”

“!”

A golden light flashed as soon as they heard that. A familiar face appeared.

The team members jumped in shock at the person who appeared kneeling on the ground.

"June!”

“This punk really is an artifact...!”

"Why is June...?!”

Ju-Heon waved his hand as if it was annoying to explain.

“I'll tell you the details later. Anyway, I was stuck in Chaos because of this b.a.s.t.a.r.d.”

June pouted as if he felt wronged.

“Your majesty, you walked into Chaos on your own accord. Your loyal subject did advise you that it was okay to destroy anything else but the throne...!”

"The throne?”

June seemed to be scolding Ju-Heon while the team members seemed confused.

“The throne is the Majesty’s Treasure that is the greatest symbol of the Majesty’s authority. It is a Treasure that has an incantation that will not forgive intruders. Anybody who attacks it will be sent off to Chaos. It was created that way to protect the king’s authority from enemies. It seems that the curse struck later than usual because his majesty is not a normal person, but......”

The team members sighed.

They had wondered why he had disappeared but it was because of his own actions!

“d.a.m.n it, I knew something would happen from the moment you destroyed it!”

“I told you to contract with it! You never listen!”

Ju-Heon just scoffed at them.

“Shut up. It's crazy to contract such a s.h.i.+tty thing.”

“What? Why?”

Ju-Heon recalled what happened six months ago instead of responding.

Six Months Ago

He had entered the palace that the apocalypse artifacts had taken over in order to save his little sister Ju-Won. It was just as he stepped into Valhalla.

Ju-Heon had stopped for a moment right before entering the palace.

The reason was simple.

[The new young king, I welcome you.]

He had heard an artifact’s voice.

It was the voice of the throne and the palace.

Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds had said the following to Ju-Heon as he was about to go inside.

[Majesty, you are about to enter the domain of the G.o.ds.]

They had also said these things.

[You will become a special existence unlike the inferior humans around you.]

[You will even have the true power of immortality that a Heirloom could never give. You will become an omnipotent existence who can live for thousands of years.]

[Be glad and thankful that a mere human will be able to have such honor.]

Hlidskjalf was a throne created at the highest spot of the palace so that Odin could look down at the humans.

Basically, the throne and palace were one and the same. Ju-Heon had scoffed after hearing these messages.

‘How arrogant for a d.a.m.n artifact b.a.s.t.a.r.d.’

Ju-Heon had asked Jaeha question before going into the palace.

“By the way, what happened to that former Majesty b.a.s.t.a.r.d?”

“Ah, his corpse was thrown into the Pacific Ocean or some other ocean by the apocalypse artifacts because they said he was in their way.”

“What? Even I couldn't remove that b.a.s.t.a.r.d from the throne.”

“Who knows? Maybe the throne recognized you as the new king and cast him aside?”

Returning back to the present...

The team members dropped their jaws after hearing this story.

"Then the reason you destroyed the throne......!”

“That’s right. I destroyed it because it was arrogant. How dare a d.a.m.n artifact tell me to consider it an honor.”

“......!”

"And immortality? Sure, it’s nice to live a long life. 200 years sounds good. I could even deal with 500 years. But thousands of years? Tell it to get lost. Humans should age like humans before we kick the bucket.”

“.........?!”

“Plus, they called it a succession. In other words, they want me to use extremely old things. That's why I destroyed it. I wanted it built new. What’s wrong? Is that not okay? Does that make me a bad person?”

The team members were shaking.

‘This b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he really...!’

“Hey! You destroyed the throne for such a stupid reason and then was gone for six months because it sent you to Chaos?!”

June chuckled.

"Well, his majesty could have come out after one month and not six and there was a different reason he destroyed the throne...”

“What? What do you mea......”

Ju-Heon stepped in as if to stop June.

“So, where is my palace and throne?”

Ju-Heon's eyes were sparkling.

“I gave you six whole months so it should be completed......”

“The pushover has already run away.”

“?!”

Jaeha, who had just been here, was nowhere to be seen. They heard Jaeha’s teary shouts from a distance.

“I won't fix it, you dog-like son of a b.i.t.c.h! Do you think you can restore something like that?! Huh?!”

Jaeha's voice sounded as if it was getting farther away.

“Simple yet elegant, vintage feeling yet futuristic...what kind of f.u.c.king design is that?! f.u.c.k! I can’t do it! I wooooooooon’t do it!”

Jaeha may never come back.

The others sighed in resignation.

Well, they were relieved to see that their Captain was back, but......

“But you broke the throne for such a stupid reason...!”

Julian and Irene were the only ones with suspicious gazes in their eyes.

It made sense why the two of them had been the ones to stop all types of schemes against the tomb raiding team while Ju-Heon was gone.

‘There’s no way that b.a.s.t.a.r.d would have destroyed the throne for such a stupid reason.’

‘What June said is concerning.’

Ju-Heon heard a familiar voice while eating some french fries.

[Liar.]

Ju-Heon's eyes opened wide after hearing the voice before he chuckled.

It was at that moment.

“Enough of that.”

Julian frowned and looked at June.

“So what is it? What is that thing?”

“What are you talking about?”

“What else?!”

Julian pointed to the TV. It was showing the mysterious tomb that had appeared with Ju-Heon.

The news was still talking about it because they had never seen a tomb like this before.

“That’s your doing, isn’t it? That is no ordinary tomb.”

Ju-Heon smiled mischievously.

“Oh, you can recognize it?”

Julian grabbed Ju-Heon by the back of his neck, asking what the h.e.l.l he had done.

"Are you out of your f.u.c.king mind?! Ah, is the reason you took six months to get out when you got out of Chaos itself in one month......!”

“What, what is it? What is that tomb?”

Julian shouted in anger.

“What else?! That is the tomb of the apocalypse artifacts!”

“What?!”
