Chapter 103 - The Final Boss of the Expansion Pack That Was Scheduled for Release
Chapter 103: The Final Boss of the Expansion Pack That Was Scheduled for Release
Every time it moved, it changed the world.
Just as humans don’t notice ants, its mere movement was a catastrophe, and no earthquake-resistant design could withstand its trampling.
It was nothing less than a walking modern atomic bomb.
During World War II, it was Japan’s greatest and worst disaster, more devastating than the nuclear bombs.
In the late 20th century.
With the help of the world’s strongest Hunter nations, the United States, Russia, and China, it wasn’t hunted down but barely put to sleep, and was now sealed as a giant mountain.
Its name was Godzilla!
“
…I had seen this promotional text a week before I got reincarnated into this game world, and naturally, before I could even play, I had already been transported here.
This means that even I had yet to experience the final boss of this new storyline.
*Rumble.*
“H-Hosen’s body is glowing…!”
“Everyone, get out of here!”
The phrase in the expansion pack’s introduction, ‘The worst reversal on Earth begins!’—I never imagined it would turn out to be such an absurd twist.
“Is it that Godzilla I know?”
“Can that old man control something like that? Nonsense!”
“He’s probably just going to let it run wild. In return, that old man is draining all the life force within his body!”
Lorensky and Katsuo immediately distanced themselves from Hosen, who was now emitting a blinding white light, and exchanged glances with Katarina before taking action.
“Everyone, get outside quickly!”
“This place is about to collapse!”
Katarina and Katsuo began evacuating the servants swiftly.
Meanwhile, Lorensky, with one hand surrounded by explosive flames, tried to attack the increasingly bright Hosen from a distance with fire.
*Boom!*
“…! That’s!”
Although his body had turned to ashes, Hosen’s soul remained, creating a pillar of light as his desperation continued.
[My flesh is already meaningless!]
“This voice…”
“Master Hosen!”
[Create a new Kitsune family!? Don’t make me laugh! A foolish family that doesn’t even commit honor killings among blood relatives! It’s better for this family to end in my hands!]
Though he had lost his body, Hosen’s voice persisted, and before his soul was completely sacrificed.
[Behold! And feel it! This is the worst monster in the world, which can only be revealed when a head of one of the top 10 families sacrifices his life!]
With a maniacal cry, as Hosen’s soul entered the giant monster disguised as a mountain covering Osaka.
“Roooaaarrrr-!!”
Its roar shattered the already unstable ceiling of the underground arena.
***
Japan was currently facing the worst situation since its founding.
“Everyone, can you see that monster? It’s unbelievable!”
A reporter filming from a helicopter above the mountainous area near Osaka.
The ‘scene’ she showed through the camera shocked not only Japan but the entire world.
128
“I can’t believe its size! The mountain… The mountain looks like just a slightly large hill! Godzilla has awakened, everyone!”
As the reporter watched the surrounding mountains burn due to Godzilla’s resurrection.
“What should we do about this?”
“Sister. Can’t you do something with Amaterasu?”
“I don’t know… This is driving me crazy, really.”
Kurumi and her group, who had safely escaped from the collapsing underground arena.
As soon as they came out, they broke into a cold sweat at the appearance of the giant monster, which was far away but roared as if it were right in front of them.
“Asuna, that’s not a monster you can just kill.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Even if you defeat it, the damage will be too great. If you engage in a battle with it, it will naturally retaliate, and if a monster of that size so much as swings its tail, what do you think will happen?”
Godzilla was currently located in the mountains right next to Osaka.
In other words, the moment the battle began, even if it was defeated, there was a chance that the monster, the size of a building, could fall into the city.
If a creature almost 1 kilometer in size fell, the people taking refuge below would be crushed like dried fish.
“Amaterasu can kill it. But if Godzilla and Amaterasu rampage simultaneously…”
“The price of victory would be the erasure of Osaka from Japan. Am I right, Princess?”
“…Yes, you’re right, Mr. Lorensky.”
Asuna nodded in agreement as Lorensky explained.
And while Kurumi, who possessed the power to kill Godzilla but couldn’t do so, wore the most serious expression.
‘If only we could lure that thing to a place like the middle of the ocean where there are no people…!’
While the descendants of the Kitsune family were gathered around their master, racking their brains for a strategy.
“Who exactly are you?”
Just a moment ago.
When the ceiling of the underground arena was collapsing.
Shin-woo had seen it.
When he was about to transform into a monster to protect those who hadn’t yet evacuated.
“Roooaaarrrr-!!”
He saw Han Jae-won, surrounded by black lightning, transform into a monster similar to him.
“I let it slide during the department store incident, but you’re also a Monster Hunter, aren’t you?”
“Monster Hunter…? Is that what people of this era call someone with this ability?”
“What……?”
“Well, since the ‘original’ you said so, I guess that’s what it is.”
“Ah, no! That’s not what I meant! Are you also someone who’s reincarnated? Did you, like me, press the hidden job code in
“Shin-woo. I’m not sure what’s going on, but this isn’t what you think.”
The boy, who used a pitch-black blade instead of his fists and punched a hole in the collapsing ceiling with a single strike.
Even during the department store incident, he couldn’t believe what he saw.
So, to get a definitive answer this time, Shin-woo asked.
“Sophia? Do you know who he is?”
“Ah, rather than knowing him, it’s more like…”
“Mother. I’ll be returning to the future soon. So, if you really want to, you can reveal my identity to him.”
“Ah, really?”
“W-Wait a minute… Mother?”
The boy and Sophia seemed unusually close.
And now, the word ‘Mother’ had naturally slipped from the blond boy’s mouth.
Sweating from his forehead, Shin-woo turned to Sophia, his expression like a broken wind-up doll, and as she met her ‘groom’s’ gaze, her face turned red.
“Well… Jae-won says he’s our son from the future.”
“…Huh?”
“Sigh. The 20-year-old you was really good at making such dumb faces.”
Then the truth came out.
As it was too clear to dismiss as a lie, given that he had already witnessed the solid evidence (monster transformation).
“My… My son?”
“Yes.”
“R-Really…?”
“Yes, really.”
Shin-woo, struck speechless by this unimaginable, absurd development, could only open and close his mouth like a fish.
Meanwhile, as he watched Shin-woo.
“Ahem! Anyway, since the future is already set… I hope you’ll pay more attention to me. Dad.”
Despite the resurrection of the worst monster in East Asia, capable of swimming from Japan to the neighboring Korean Peninsula, the blushing bride-to-be coyly hinted at her groom-to-be.
“Are they acting like this because it’s not their land?”
“…No, even if Seoul were about to be wiped out, those two would still be doing this. Probably…”
“Eek?! Isn’t that a level of madness equivalent to the Monster Group?”
“Shin-woo… So you’re already married in the future… Sniff…”
And so, even though Osaka was in chaos, the Monster Group’s evaluation of the love-struck couple was indeed monstrous.
Meanwhile.
“So, Master, I think we should…”
“……”
“M-Master?!”
“Sister? What’s wrong all of a sudden?”
“What’s the matter, Master?”
As descendants of one of Japan’s top 10 families.
This side was seriously devising a plan to subdue the resurrected Godzilla with minimal casualties.
“Urgh… Uuurgh-!!”
“Sister?! Why are you suddenly vomiting when there’s no one around?”
“I’ve lost… I’ve lost it all…!”
“But we haven’t even fought Godzilla yet, what do you mean?”
“Ugh, uuuurrrgh!!”
“Sister?!”
Having been in a slightly distant location, Kurumi had heard the truth about Han Jae-won’s identity.
In that instant, her mind, which had been filled with thoughts of subduing God
zilla, was overtaken by the image of a defeated heroine, and the once-intelligent head of one of the top 10 families…
“Buh… Buhdya!”
“Sister…?”
“Buhdya! Buhdya!”
…was reduced to a babbling fool.
“Kurumi, what’s wrong?! Why are you suddenly acting like an idiot at such a critical time?”
“Buhdya, buhdya, buhdya!”
“Could it be that Godzilla has a mind-control ability too?”
“Is that why she’s like this, Brother Rokyu?”
“I-I don’t know… But otherwise, there’s no way a perfectly normal person would suddenly act like this!”
Buhdyabuhdya.
Buhdyabuhdyabuhdya.
“Buhdya! Buhdya!”
