Chapter 150. The Branch
The world was in uproar. It hadn’t been long since the Stem had appeared following the Root. But now, something new was surfacing—referred to ominously as the Branch.
With the roots came unknown monsters, leading to unimaginable destruction. The Stems brought more terror due to the involvement of the elves. No one could even guess what the branches would bring on, and assumed that the global panic was inevitable.

Son Chang-Il's serious voice could be heard from the other end of the line.

—Thankfully, yes. I made sure they looked around your neighborhood especially thoroughly, and there were no strange occurrences.
Kim Do-Joon let out a long sigh of relief.

Even though he had some safety precautions, there was no better scenario than avoiding a crisis altogether.
Son Chang-Il went on.
—But it’s not just your neighborhood that’s untouched.
