Chapter 13: S RANK
Anos exuded unbridled confidence, his supreme existence radiating an aura of invincibility in the evaluation room. Chairman Gunhee's authoritative order to continue the evaluation shattered the silence, echoing through the chamber.
"Place your hand on the rank measurement machine," the evaluator instructed, his eyes fixed intently on Anos, anticipation hanging heavy in the air.
Anos complied with grace, his mana flowing into the machine like a mighty river, achieving S-rank status with effortless ease.
The evaluator's eyes widened in awe, his gaze frozen on the machine as he scribbled notes on his pad with frenzied intensity. "Demonstrate your abilities," he requested, his voice laced with reverence and admiration.
Anos nodded, his eyes gleaming with power, his hand weaving a intricate pattern with mesmerizing fluidity. "[Red]!" he uttered, his voice low and commanding.
The target and walls behind it exploded in a cloud of dust, the evaluator gasping in shock, his eyes bulging from their sockets.
"Mage" was scribbled on the notepad, the evaluator's face still frozen in astonishment, his mind reeling from the sheer magnitude of Anos's power.
The onlookers were stunned, their minds reeling from the sudden display of magical prowess, their perceptions shattered like fragile glass.
Choi Jongin spoke up, his voice laced with admiration and respect. "Congratulations, Anos. You are now one of our ranks."
Anos nodded, his expression hinting at unfinished business, his eyes gleaming with a hint of mystery. "Sorry for the trouble, but I must leave." With a flicker, he vanished, leaving the group bewildered and awestruck by his teleportation abilities.
[NEXT DAY ]
A breaking news announcement shook the nation, reverberating through every corner of Korea! "Korea's new and 10th S-rank has been evaluated today!" The anchor's voice resonated with profound respect as he revealed the name: "Anos, a mage of unparalleled prowess!"
The news spread like a raging wildfire, leaving all of Korea's inhabitants in utter shock and awe.
...…
In a secluded house on the outskirts of Seoul, a stunning girl named Jinha sat on a plush sofa, sipping a soft drink with elegance. Her milky skin, slim body, and mesmerizing curves made her a beauty to behold, a true masterpiece of nature.
But Jinha's attention was focused on the news anchor's words, her mind riveted on the announcement. She wasn't shocked by the emergence of a new S-rank, but the next piece of information left her breathless, her heart skipping a beat. The name "Anos" echoed in her mind like a thunderclap, a name that resonated deep within her soul. Jinha's face flushed with a deep blush as she gazed at Anos's image on the screen, her heart racing with a mix of emotions, her very existence drawn to him like a magnet.
...…
On the bustling highways of Korea, a van navigated through the traffic, carrying two men on a mission. Jinho was behind the wheel, while Sung Jinwoo, the vessel of the Shadow Monarch, sat in the back, his eyes fixed on the road ahead.
Their last raid had been a success, and they were headed to a nearby cafe to celebrate. The van pulled over, and the side door slid open. Jinwoo stepped out, his pace slow and deliberate, with Jinho following closely behind. They entered the cafe, choosing a corner table to sit and collect their thoughts.
Jinwoo remained silent, lost in his own world, while Jinho ordered coffee for them to drink. As they waited, Jinwoo's gaze drifted around the cafe, taking in the atmosphere. But then, his ears picked up on a conversation that made his heart skip a beat.
The receptionist and the coffee-brewing girl were chatting, their voices barely above a whisper. "Have you seen the new S-ranker? He's so hot! I wish I could eat him up!" The receptionist giggled, her face flushing with excitement. Jinwoo's eyes widened in shock, his mind racing with the implications.
He quickly pulled out his phone and searched the internet, his eyes scanning the headlines. And then, he saw it - the face of the man who had defeated him, the man who had utterly crushed him. Anos, his neighbor, was now an S-ranker. A hint of determination flashed in Jinwoo's eyes, a fire burning within him.
...…
As Korea celebrated the emergence of a new S-ranker, the protagonist of the headlines, Anos, remained in his abode, engrossed in calculations and planning for the upcoming trial of the Floor. He reclined on the sofa, his head resting on the cushions as he watched the news about himself on TV.
Anos pondered his next move, recalling a promise he made to a friend in his previous life. Rayon, his best friend, had uttered those words as he lay dying in Anos's arms during a mission. "Live your life with full freedom and live every second to its fullest." Anos's eyes moistened as he remembered the moment, his heart heavy with the weight of his promise.
With a newfound determination, Anos set goals for himself in this world: to enjoy every moment and marry his crush, Jinah. As he drifted off to sleep, his consciousness faded into the darkness, his mind still reeling with thoughts of the future.
As Anos's eyelids fluttered closed, surrendering to the allure of slumber, two figures surreptitiously slipped into his abode, exploiting the open door he had forgotten to shut. Sung Jinwoo and his sister, Jinha, tiptoed inside, their gazes scanning the room with a mixture of curiosity and admiration.
Their search culminated in the discovery of Anos reclining on the sofa, his peaceful slumber a stark contrast to the tumultuous world outside. Jinwoo's sigh was laced with a hint of resignation, while Jinha's face flushed with a deep blush, her ears burning crimson at the sight of Anos's innocent repose.
Jinha's intentions, however, were shrouded in mystery, her true motives hidden behind a veil of congratulations and admiration. Jinwoo, on the other hand, was less enthused, his reluctance evident in his decision to leave a note instead of awakening the sleeping Anos.
The message was concise, yet laced with a hint of warmth: "We came to congratulate you and invite you to a party at our house. Come over when you wake up. - Your sunbae, Jinwoo."
