Side Story Chapter 40: To Live as a Human (1)
“So in the end, that battleship had nothing to do with Akart?” asked Lilith as she narrowed her eyes.
“Yup,” Oh Kang-Woo answered. Three days passed since the giant battleship menacingly appeared above New York and was destroyed as soon as it appeared. “I think it was just a regular otherworldly invasion.”
He tried to gather as much information about the Galactic Federation as possible for the past three days but he couldn’t find any traces of Akart.
“Hmm. It’s even more worrisome that he hasn’t made a move at all.”
Lilith shook her head as she stroked her chin. It was like how developers got more worried when they didn’t discover any bugs in their program. According to the System, Akart was trying to end the Triad; it only amplified their anxiety since there were no signs of it.
“Yeah. It’d be better for my heart if he just appeared out of the blue like the Galactic Federation.”
Kang-Woo clicked his tongue and nodded. Lilith giggled and walked behind Kang-Woo, who was sitting on a chair.
She hugged him from behind and asked, “That aside, about the… android, was it? You said it managed to penetrate your Deific Essence barrier purely with physical power. Is that true?”
“Yeah. I didn’t feel Deific Essence from him. It was pure physical power.”
