Chapter 9: [ New World ] : [ 8 ] [ Daily Life in the (New World) / Ares Corporation ]

It's dark. Everything is dark. I can't hear anything. Everything is pitch black.

 

The only things I could feel were the warmth within my embrace and the rise and fall

of someone's breathing.

 

In the distance, I felt a light. As its intensity gradually grew stronger and drew closer,

my surroundings suddenly brightened, and the two of us were pulled out somewhere.

Escaping that place, which was like a borderless hell, left my mind in a haze.

 

My head is dizzy.... My body is cold... My body feels immensely heavy, as if weighed down by a thousand pounds.

But (Ras), I somehow force my eyes open. To see my wife's face one more time, the last face I saw,

I open my eyes, and what appears is....

 

A place where everything was seen for the first time. An unfamiliar city, unfamiliar people, and unfamiliar

races?? As Ras opened his eyes, everything he saw was new to him,

and he felt as if he were in a different world. Then, feeling the warm sensation from his embrace,

he shifted his gaze downwards, and what he saw was....

 

- Mmmmyahmyah..... Ungnyana.....

 

His cute, sleeping wife ' Ares El Gloi '. Looking around, Ras,

for the first time since arriving in this other world, opened his mouth and spoke.

 

- By the way, where is this place??

 

It was a question about just where this place was.

 

And Ras's worries about where this place was could only be resolved after his wife 'Ares' woke up.

For now, as cold rain was falling outside, Ras, getting wet in the rain, first sought to

warm his body and find a place to rest.

 

Using the万能万能卡 (Omnipotent Card) he had used in [The Great One] Lee Jun's city, he entered

a lodging establishment called a 'motel'. Ras hurriedly began trying to wake his wife....

 

- Honey?? Are you okay? Honey?? Wake up...

 

Thanks to Ras, Ares, who had lost consciousness, opened her eyes and stared at Ras's face...

 

- Huh..?? Hehehe, it's Ras~~~

 

However, Ares's mind was still in dreamland, in a half-asleep, half-awake state, so she couldn't grasp the current situation.

Held in her husband Ras's embrace, it was only after about 5 hours had passed that

Ares could understand the situation they were in detail.

After Ares properly regained her senses, Ras, together with his wife, began thinking about

how they would break through this situation.

 

- What should we do.......

 

- Yeah, really......

 

However, these worries didn't last long. As both knew how to rise up from the very bottom,

they did all sorts of jobs they could find, any work that paid, as long as it didn't cross a certain line.

After doing whatever came their way for 10 years and amassing sufficient assets, the two

 

established a small corporation. In this process, they successfully forged a connection with Veloborg Heavy Industries

and, by requesting Veloborg's help, had a building constructed for the Ares Corporation to use.

Ras took out five items from his inventory that he hadn't paid any attention to while in the City,

items whose identity he hadn't even known, and

both Ares and Ras stared at the five items in silence...

 

- Ras... These are what I think they are, right??

 

- Yes... Seems like it..... They're items related to Singularities.....

 

The items Ras and Ares were looking at were all related to the Singularities of The Wing.....

 

And these five items would become the core technology of the future Ares Corporation.

These technologies would become the flagship products of the future Ares Corporation.

 

The Singularity-related items Ras and Ares were currently looking at were:

K Corp's Recovery Serum, an information chip containing P Corp's Spatial Expansion technology,

tools containing U Corp's Phenomenon Packaging technology, a machine device containing X Corp's Special Alloy Manufacturing technology,

and T Corp's TT Series.

 

And all five Singularities required absolutely no energy. Next to them, the following phrase was written:

 

-----

 

- MADE.BY LOST [The Great One]

Don't take this out in the City. You'll become dangerous.

 

 

-----

 

Seeing this phrase, Ras understood why [The Great One] had locked these items

so they couldn't be taken out in the City. They discussed how they would use these technologies going forward,

 

and after the discussion ended, the two decided to actively use the Singularities for the Ares Corporation.

 

As the Singularities began to be used, Ares's reputation and lofty status started to become apparent,

and the corporation's stock price began to rise.

 

-

Initially, the Ares Corporation was an enterprise that nobody paid any attention to. However, after the Singularities were utilized,

 

it began receiving the jealous and admiring gazes of numerous corporations due to its leadership in pharmaceutical companies in the medical field,

food corporations, heavy industry, and finally, technology related to 'Spatial Expansion'.

 

They formed alliances with other corporations or mutually benefited, until eventually, the T.O.P.S. Alliance and

its three major corporations, hearing the rumors, showed up.

 

High Ambition Group, known as the leader in finance,

 

Saintlin, which sells food and daily necessities,

 

and Threegate Group, which leads in military supplies and construction industries,

 

came to the Ares Corporation and, in a roundabout way, demanded the corporation's technology, making absurd proposals.

 

Seeing this, Ares and Ras, feeling as if they were dealing with The Wing just like their Office did in the City in the past,

handled the situation and refused. T.O.P.S and the three major corporations were enraged.

The couple, who had experienced numerous battles and hardships,

 

calmed them down and proposed one bet and condition.

That condition was...

 

An outrageous content, as if daring them to look at the core of Ares Corporation's technology and take as much as they wanted.

 

If they were defeated, they wanted an appropriate compensation in return.

Hearing this, T.O.P.S and the three major corporations confidently and readily agreed to the bet, but the result was...

 

A complete defeat for T.O.P.S and the three major corporations. No corporation whatsoever

could copy Ares Corporation's Singularities.

 

As a result, T.O.P.S and the three major corporations gave a small compensation and, acting as if they had nothing to do with it,

fired those who had caused this incident, decisively cutting off the loose ends.

 

And so, the Ares Corporation gradually prospered and grew. Then, news spread that, under the leadership of the Mapleflower family,

a city called Eridu was to be built with cutting-edge technology and massive capital investment.

 

Those who heard this news all headed to the land of opportunity, Eridu.

 

High Ambition Group, known as the leader in finance,

 

Saintlin, which sells food and daily necessities,

 

and Threegate Group, which leads in military supplies and construction industries, jumped into Eridu.

 

Companies belonging to the large corporate alliance T.O.P.S also jumped in.

 

Furthermore, Vision Company, which wanted to join the T.O.P.S Alliance, and the emerging company Veloborg Heavy Industries,

which competed with its high technological prowess, also participated.

 

Countless people from all over flocked to the land of opportunity called Eridu.

 

The Ares Corporation, jointly operated by Ras and Ares,

also jumped into that competition...

 

As a result, Eridu became a massive city and developed, living up to people's expectations.

It was a day like any other. Since coming to this world, Ras lived without holding a sword.

He lived feeling immense happiness that he no longer had to kill anyone.

 

At the same time, he worried about Kali. While living an ordinary life, all those who had settled down

in this Eridu lived happily, smiling. Ras also found the continuing,

 

ordinary present daily life good.... But tragedy struck suddenly. Today, Ras was on his way

to meet Professor Arche, the founder of the Helios Organization, regarding a matter related to a current Singularity.

 

If you asked how Ras knew Professor Arche, the answer was simple.

 

Professor Arche, an Object Head with a head that looked like it was on fire, was the founder of the Helios Organization and had mastered all sorts of science, technology,

and knowledge. But when the professor saw the Singularity technology of Ares Corporation, he immediately wanted

to talk with its developer.

 

However, since nobody knew who the developer of the Singularity technology was,

 

he eventually came to the house where Ras and Ares lived to discuss the technology,

 

and naturally, a friendship formed with Professor Arche...

 

And today, Ras was heading to the Helios Organization, created by Professor Arche, upon hearing the news

 

that the analysis of one of the Singularities

 

was almost complete. Peacefully heading towards the Helios Organization founded by Professor Arche,

Ras, with some strange sensation, saw it with his own two eyes....

 

A mysterious dark hemisphere, appearing from who-knows-where, was swallowing everything,

growing larger and consuming the surrounding terrain and structures...

 

After that, Ras was caught up in the first disaster he had ever seen in this world, rapidly approaching him -

the first Void Disaster, 'Zero Void'...

 

-

 

-

 

-

 

After the dark hemisphere originated in Eridu, humanity termed this first-seen, initial disaster

a 'Void', calling the first Void that appeared the 'Zero Void'.

They discovered and learned about a substance called 'Ether' inside the Void.

 

Later, due to the foolish belief that they could completely control the Void,

the Old City Subjugation Incident occurred. The Void disaster that Ras was now caught in

 

would become the starting point for numerous future events and was also the beginning

of another legend of Ras being written...
